Chapter 167: Heavy Blow

Yanzhou Border Division.

At this time, there was a vanguard of northern barbarians.

And what Lin Chuan has to deal with is this vanguard force. This vanguard has been gathering here for some time.

Every day, the barbarians from the north converged here and rushed from all over the country. Lin Chuan guessed that this was probably a garrison location for the northern barbarians.

This northern barbarian force is estimated to be set up against the Yanzhou side.

I just don't know when this force will come and when it will leave. Because every day here there are troops constantly leaving, and troops are entering.

And the time is not fixed, and there are a few times when troops come in the middle of the night.

In the past few days, Tai Shici has been observing here for a long time, and there is no law to inquire about at all, and the mobilization of troops on the northern barbarian side seems to be very arbitrary.

Therefore, Tai Shici's sneak attack is actually not good for sneak attack. And the terrain here is relatively flat, even if you sneak attack at night, you can't take much advantage.

So in the past few days, Tai Shici has also been thinking of a better way, but he has never thought of a good way.

It can only be said that the location of their sneak attack this time was chosen by the northern barbarians. The chosen location of the camp is still relatively good.

It is estimated that the northern barbarians are also afraid of a sneak attack, so they set up a garrison here.

At this time, Tai Shici looked at the intelligence map in front of him and said.

"The terrain here is relatively flat, and there are still quite a lot of northern barbarian troops stationed. There is one thing, whether we sneak up during the day or at night, we can't take much advantage. ”

After thinking for a while, he said.

"Moreover, on the side of the northern barbarians, they are extremely good at horse warfare and sports warfare, and I think this force is extremely strong in sports warfare."

"If we can't quickly assault the opposite side, our side will suffer heavy losses, and it is likely that we will be pinned down by this force. If our side is pinned, then our whole plan will fail. ”

After thinking for a moment, he said.

"Everyone, if you have any good ideas, you can talk about it, after all, I still have a very limited amount of thinking alone."

Sima Hui said on the side at this time.

"The northern barbarians are extremely good at horse warfare and sports warfare. In such a flat terrain, we are actually not very advantageous. Our troops are more powerful in infantry, and cavalry is not good. ”

He thought for a moment and said.

"So I think we should kill the enemy's horses first. The only way to get rid of their horses was to get rid of them first. We have a good chance of winning. ”

Huang Zhong said on the side at this time.

"But the vigilance of this barbarian is still quite high, and their horses are now heavily guarded. If you're not careful, we'll be discovered, so it's hard to operate. ”

Sima Hui thought for a while at this time and said.

"Actually, we just need to find a water source for their horses, and I think these horses will definitely choose a nearby water source as a supply point."

After thinking for a moment, he said.

"As long as we put a little medicine in this stream, it should be fine, and it may achieve some unexpected effects."

Tai Shi Ci said at this time.

"There are quite a lot of rivers in the vicinity. If you check them one by one, it's not enough at all. And we don't have that time on our side. It seems that we can only choose the most recent one and bet once. ”

He thought for a moment and then said.

"In any case, we must act in these two days. Otherwise, if the people on the northern side increase their forces again, the difficulty on our side will increase again. It's going to be really hard then. What do you think? ”

Tai Shi Ci thought for a moment and then said.

"I'll leave the situation of this water source to you, Mr. Sima Hui. I think you should have a way, and since you brought it up, you should be able to find it. ”

Sima Hui said on the side at this time.

"Don't worry, General, I won't let you down, I'll find it. But I can't guarantee it 100%, there is still a certain amount of risk in this, I can't be 100% sure. ”

Tai Shi Ci said at this time.

"It's okay, there are still a lot of water sources here, and it's still quite difficult to find. Whether we find it or not, we have to act. I'm scheduled for the evening a day later. That is, at the time of their meal. ”

He thought for a moment and said.

"If there's no problem, let me know and let the people below prepare. In addition, inform Yuan Shao and Sun Jian's troops, and let them be careful, understand? Don't startle the snake. ”

"No matter what the situation is on our side, don't go out on your own. Their job is to stop the other troops from the north coming in, you know. Also, when we retreat, arrange the route of the retreat. That's it. ”

Sima Hui said on the side at this time.

"Sun Jian and Cao Cao's troops, I have already informed them, don't worry."

Tai Shi Ci thought for a moment at this time and then said.

"In addition, the lord sent me a message back. He Jin's troops will also be like us, blocking the northern barbarians, but we don't know where the exact location is for the time being. ”

"However, judging from the information obtained from the lord's side, our side should have acted first. Therefore, the reinforcements on the northern barbarian side will not be too fast, and we still have a chance. What do you think? ”

Sima Hui said on the side at this time.

"If that's the case, then our side has a better chance of winning, and the northern side will definitely not quickly reinforce this side, after all, this is still some distance away from their base camp."

He thought for a moment and said.

"If the location He Jin chose over there is very close to us. It's good that they can't judge the reality of this side for the time being. If the distance is long, they also have to consider who to save first. ”

"So this time, the odds on our side are quite good. When I heard this, I knew what to do. It seems that the heavens are on our side. Yes. ”

Tai Shi Ci said at this time.

"That's true, the heavens are on our side."

Just when Tai Shici's side was about to start acting.

He Jin and Kong Rong, and Ma Teng are also in action. They only arrived at the designated place for their reservation at this time. There is still some distance from the place where Tai Shi Ci and they want to attack.

At this time, He Jin looked at the previous map and said.

"Let's fight around here, there are still quite a lot of troops in the north here, and we are here to severely damage these troops in the north, I think it's just right."

He thought for a moment and said.

"In addition, I also learned that Cao Cao and Lin Chuan's side are also acting, and they have the same idea as our side."

"I contacted Cao Cao's side, although Cao Cao didn't say it explicitly, but it was expressed very vaguely, and I could still feel it. It's the same idea as on our side. ”

He thought for a moment and then said.

"But they should be faster and better prepared than we are. And our side is still not fully prepared, so we can only bet once. ”

"Also, I'll just say it once. Regardless of the actions of our side this time. Once reinforcements from the northern barbarians arrived, we had to retreat. ”

After thinking for a while, he said.

"We only fight once attrition, retreat if we can, and forget if we can't wipe them all out. That's why I made this plan. In fact, I just wanted to contain some of the forces on the northern barbarian side and make it easier for Lin Chuan's side to get their hands on it, which was my original idea. ”

"If we have a chance to hit the other side, don't give up, you know? Once reinforcements from the north come, they must retreat, and they can't and can't fight, you know. ”

He Jin looked at Kong Rong and said, these words are actually said to Kong Rong, and Kong Rong listens.

Kong Rong said on the side at this time.

"Don't worry, Lord He Jin. We're not going to fight, I'm still a little measured. If reinforcements come from the north, it will be difficult to withdraw once they are handed over, and I still understand this, don't worry. ”

Ma Teng said on the side at this time.

"General, you don't have to worry about me. I'm sure I'll retreat then. I'm a little worried about Brother Kong Rong, you're over there. Once you fight the north, I'm afraid you'll fight too hot. Forgot about retreating. ”

After thinking for a moment, he said.

"I hope that when the time comes, don't leave me too far, or I won't be able to find you, understand? If you don't want to, I will be buried with you with the general, and you will listen to us this time. ”

Kong Rong said at this time.

"I see, don't worry, I won't do that, and I won't joke about this."

Just when He Jin, Lin Chuan's side, began to prepare for a sneak attack on the vanguard troops on the northern side.

The base camp on this side of the north.

At this time, the leader of the Huns was faintly uneasy in his heart, but he didn't know what the problem was, and everything was too smooth in the past few days.

Everything was pretty much the same as he had expected. But the leader of the Huns vaguely felt that things were not as simple as he imagined.

Among them, he may have overlooked something, but he just couldn't remember it, and he ignored something.

At this time, the leader of the Huns suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and then looked at the information in front of him and said.

"The layout over there in Yanzhou is ready, I don't want too many accidents, understand."

At this time, the person on the side said.

"Don't worry, Chief, you're almost ready, just waiting for your order."

The leader of the Huns said at this time.

"That's good, inform the troops in the next few days and let them be more vigilant, understand? Don't let your guard down. I'm always skeptical. Something is going to happen. If there is any special situation, it should be reported in time, understand? ”

At this time, the person next to him said.

"Don't worry, everyone below knows about it, and if there is any situation, we will report it in time."

The leader of the Huns said at this time.

"Okay, then so be it, if there's nothing to do, you can go and get busy."

At this time, the person next to him said.

"Then when are we going to deal with Yanzhou?"

The leader of the Huns said at this time.

"Wait for me to inform, I'm waiting for news from someone. Don't worry, it won't be long, news will come soon. ”

At this time, the person next to him said.

"Yes, Chief."

That's right, at this time, the leader of the Huns was waiting for news from Wang Yue's side. Compared to Liu Dai. , the leader of the Huns believed in Wang Yue more, after all, he and Wang Yue had known each other for many years and had cooperated for many years. Therefore, Wang Yue is still worthy of his trust.

Yanzhou Border Division.

Late at night.

At this time, Huang Zhong led a group of people to a water source. This is Mr. Sima Hui's calculations and estimates after a day, as well as information from all sides. A source of water was found.

This water source is most likely the water supply provided to the horses by the troops of the northern barbarians.

Sima Hui felt that nine times out of ten it was here. Because some of the horses' hooves here are still very clear, and although they have been covered, they can still be seen.

So, late at night at this time. Huang Zhong led people. Come here and put some medicine in it. Let all the horses of the northern barbarians fall.

As for whether this is that place or not, it depends on the actions of Tai Shi Ci's side tomorrow.

In order not to startle the snake, Sima Hui did not set up some secret posts in this water source.

He was afraid that some people would suspect it, after all, this force of the northern barbarians was still not vigilant. So, you can only gamble.

Soon, the night passed.

Tai Shici's side also began to prepare and arrived at the predetermined location. Prepare to launch an assault on the northern barbarians in the evening.

It can be said that in terms of time, the grasp is still relatively accurate and timely.

As long as all the horses on the northern barbarian side fall. Then Tai Shici's odds of winning are still quite big.

Everything depends on it, the northern barbarians will not be hit.

Soon it was evening. At the border of Yanzhou, the surrounding buildings suddenly had a solemn atmosphere.

The Northern Barbarians also suddenly felt that the atmosphere around them was a little wrong, and it was really quiet. There used to be some bird calls, but now there are no sounds.

At this time, the supreme commander of the northern barbarian troops stationed here. Looking into the distance, he frowned deeply, he felt that things were not as simple as he imagined, I was afraid that something was going to happen, and it had never been so quiet as now. Just as he was about to give the order to investigate.

Tai Shici's people suddenly killed around, as well as Yuan Shao's troops.

Be the commander of this northern barbarian army. When I saw the troops in the Central Plains, I suddenly felt bad.

They were afraid of a sneak attack, but he didn't panic. After all, he knew. The troops on their side are still very strong. Said loudly.

"Prepare your horses for battle."

I saw that these northern barbarian troops rode their war horses one after another. Xiang Tai Shici killed here.

When Tai Shi Ci saw these northern troops. When I rode a war horse to kill, my heart sank. He felt that Sima Hui's strategy might not have succeeded. But it didn't take long.

Those troops of the northern barbarians. Suddenly, a large piece fell in front of it. It turned out that Sima Hui's medicinal effect was chronic, and the war horse had to be running to have a quick effect.

Immediately let the troops on the northern barbarian side be in chaos. When Tai Shici saw it, he was immediately overjoyed and said immediately.

"Kill me."

Not much, after a while. This northern barbarian army was quickly routed, and the corpses were strewn all over the field.
