Chapter 428: The Ambush of the Wagang Army
、、、、、、、、、、
Qin Qiong proposed to take care of both sides, to see which side is weak in defense and easy to attack, and to use which side is the main direction of attack.
Song Jingang proposed that since these passes were so difficult to attack, it was better to show the enemy weakness and lure the enemy out to gather and annihilate him.
Luo Cheng proposed to send people to pretend to be mountain people who had fled from the villages of the Zhou army, and enter the passes and cottages on the mountains to act as internal responses to the attack of the Zhou army.
After listening carefully to everyone's suggestions, Yu Ming smiled slightly: "After listening to everyone's suggestions and opinions, it also gave this king a lot of inspiration, I synthesized everyone's plan, but I came up with a plan to lure the enemy to break the village, let's help this king take a closer look at it and see if it is feasible!" ”
With that, he began to explain in detail to the crowd.
And with his explanations one by one, the more everyone listened, the more surprised they became, and the more they listened, the more shocked they became, they never expected that Yuming would have laid such a chess game in the Wei army early.
Even Niu Jinda, who had not been in Chengcheng for a long time, was very surprised, and couldn't help scratching the back of his head and said, "I didn't expect King Zhou to have already made arrangements!" In this way, I am afraid that Li Mi will become our prisoner in a short time! ”
The generals also praised after hearing this, and even Hu Sizheng smiled at the corner of his mouth, stroked his short beard under his chin and said: "King Zhou's plan is indeed very good!" It is the best battle plan of our army at present. Hu admires! ”
Seeing that everyone agreed with this plan, Yu Mingfang stood up at this time, looked around at the generals, and said with a slight smile: "Since everyone is not opposed, go back and prepare and act according to this plan!" Although this king does not dare to say that he is nine out of ten, he is full of energy, and the possibility of defeating the enemy is great...... Let's fight for a decisive victory......"
The generals agreed, and then they went out of the tent of the Zhou army together and began to prepare for battle......
……
In the future, on an avenue leading from the county seat of Huaxian County to the depths of Wagang Mountain, a convoy of dozens of transport vehicles is moving slowly.
More than five soldiers of the Zhou army, wearing black helmets and black armor, marched in the direction of the Zhou army camp in the mountain, the cart was full, and the wheels were thick and deep marks on the road. Although the carriage was covered with a black cloth, anyone could guess that it contained either armor and equipment or food weapons.
It's the middle of summer, and it's very hot. It had just rained heavily two days ago, and the river in the mountains was very watery. The stream on the right side of the road has turned into a small river, and it is flowing happily, and the mushrooms on both sides of the road are growing like bamboo shoots after the rain.
The road on Wagang Mountain is naturally not a flat river, it can only be said that the terrain is a little lighter, and compared with the official road in the plain area, it is still rugged and undulating.
Amid the rumbling of horses' hooves, the soldiers of the Zhou army escorting the baggage convoy slowly marched into a canyon.
The canyon is flanked by towering mountain walls, almost perpendicular to the ground, and the terrain is quite treacherous, and it is a frequent ambush for the Wei army.
The officers and soldiers of Zhou slowly entered the valley mouth, and the generals of Wei held spears in their hands, majestic, and led dozens of iron horsemen to open the way in front, while the soldiers behind were lined up to protect the baggage on the left and right, and looked at the sides cautiously.
However, they did not know that in the woods on both sides of the valley, a large number of Wei troops were lying in ambush.
"General Wei, do you want to rob this Zhou army? It doesn't seem like there are many people. A Wei general named Hu Xiaopeng looked at the baggage convoy that was slowly entering the valley and swallowed his saliva.
After hearing his words, Wei Haoliang, the commander of the Wei army, touched his chin, then looked at the sky, and said with a smile: "Of course you want to rob, they are only a few people, but our number is more than a thousand, twice as many as them." And the right time, place and people are all here with us, and it would be stupid not to grab it! ”
"But General Wang Bodang's troops have not yet come, and if the Zhou army is full of elite troops, I am afraid we may not be able to win." Hu Xiaopeng was still a little uneasy.
Wei Haoliang snorted coldly and said: "If it weren't for Xu Shiji and Wang Bodang, who strongly advocated retreating into Wagang Mountain, how could we be drilling in the ravine here every day, like bandits." If it weren't for the fact that they could grab some of the Zhou army's heavy grain and grass, and buy some grain from the villages around Wagang Mountain, everyone would have starved to death...... Also, why do you mention Wang Bodang in everything? Is it because he is Mi Gong's most trusted general? ”
"Of course not! Maybe on the plains, Uncle Wang is powerful. But in this mountain, who doesn't know that General Wei's command of mountain warfare is the most powerful! Hu Xiaopeng hurriedly said with a smile.
After Wei Haoliang listened, Fang showed a satisfied smile and said: "A certain family will let Mi Gong know this time: I, Wei Haoliang, am also a good man." It's not just Xu Shiji and Wang Bodang who can rely on it! Listen to me! Push those boulders down the valley and launch a surprise attack! ”
With his loud roar, the boulders that had been prepared on the top of the valley suddenly tumbled down into the valley, causing the Zhou soldiers and coachmen in the valley to scream.
In the dust, Wei Haoliang stood up suddenly, the big knife in his hand was raised high, and the rain that was immediately stained on it flowed from the tip of the knife to the hilt, and then to the ground.
His eyes were full of murderous intent and said, "Warriors of the Wagang Army, everyone rush!" Kill all these Zhou troops! ”
The soldiers of the Wagang Army immediately rushed down the mountain with their eyes shining, as if these Zhou troops were a flock of lambs to be slaughtered. It was indeed very rare to see so many of the Zhou army's baggage carts driving into the valley and falling into their own ambush.
Moreover, although these Zhou troops with bright armor looked extremely majestic, they all showed panicked expressions in their eyes, and they didn't know what to do.
In Wei Haoliang's eyes, such soldiers were obviously recruits who had not been trained in much war, and these people should have only been recruited from the nearby mountain people. He had also encountered a lot of such Zhou soldiers in the previous two months. Knowing that these soldiers are embroidered pillows and grass, they are almost defeated in battle.
Therefore, as long as they saw the convoy escorted by this kind of soldiers, the generals of the Wei army knew that if they encountered a fat sheep, they would not lose many men and horses, and they could also grab a large amount of grain and grass.
The sudden appearance of more than 1,000 people, amid the shouts, the sound of fighting resounded through the canyon. Huge boulders rolled down from the top of the valley, rolling up a cloud of dust, and it looked really impressive. Anyway, the baggage grain carts are not afraid of being smashed, and even if they are broken, they can be transported by prepared vehicles.
As for how many enemy soldiers and horses will be killed and injured, it is even more a matter for the generals of the Zhou army to consider.
The terrain in the canyon was originally rugged, and after a large number of boulders were pushed down, even if they could not hit the people and horses, it would be difficult for the Zhou soldiers to escape, and it would be inconvenient for the horses to run.
Wei Haoliang was secretly proud, and his heart said that this is called his own strength, and the attack on the enemy's short, this time the dozens of large carts that robbed the Zhou army returned to the cottage, and Wang Bodang and Jia Xiong dared to underestimate him!
Seeing the Wagang army rushing down, the officer of the Zhou army who was escorting the heavy baggage looked up and was immediately frightened and panicked, he hurriedly waved the spear in his hand in a panic, and ordered his soldiers to flee quickly.
Those soldiers, all recruited from among the surrendered mountain people, had long been frightened, and when they heard the lord call to withdraw, they were immediately relieved and scattered, like birds and beasts.
They spread their feet and ran to and fro, even the coachmen recruited from the bottom of the mountain.
By the time Wei Haoliang and the Wei soldiers rushed into the valley, there were only a few dozen lonely carts and horses pulling carts in the valley.
Wei Haoliang was overjoyed in his heart, and secretly thought that this harvest would be great! The soldiers under his command cheered even more, and made a good start in the morning.
Immediately someone rushed forward and cut the canvas covering the carriage with a long knife in his hand, revealing the goods inside. I saw that there were brand-new armor in the style of the Zhou army, long and short bows and arrows, as well as food and horse materials, and even a large cart with a few boxes of black liquid in clay pots.
After opening it, someone who knew the goods immediately recognized it: "General Wei, this is the latest type of fire-ignition thing of the Zhou army, called an incendiary bomb, which is only equipped by the most elite main force of the Zhou army, and the power is amazing." It can be ignited in rainy days, and it can't be extinguished with water. ”
"Haha! Meritorious! We've done a great job. Wei Haoliang suddenly burst out laughing. The accompanying Wagang soldiers also cheered. Although they had plundered the Zhou army's baggage convoys before, they had never robbed such an important weapon. This time it was a huge gain.
However, Hu Xiaopeng always felt that something was wrong, he lowered his voice and said to Wei Haoliang: "General Wei, I always feel that there is something wrong!" ”
Wei Haoliang glanced at him, and asked in a somewhat unhappy tone, "Xiaopeng, is there any problem?" ”
"General Wei, I always feel that this ambush went well, and something is not quite right. Even if the Zhou army is not the main force, it is just a new soldier transporting heavy baggage, it is impossible to collapse at such a touch, and there is no resistance! Hu Xiaopeng said tremblingly: "Moreover, since they are transporting important strategic materials such as incendiary bombs, how can they send some recruits to escort them?" Aren't you afraid of being robbed by us? ”
When Wei Haoliang heard this, he immediately became angry and said, "What do you mean by this? Do you think that if I Wei Haoliang can't win the battle? Every time, you can only follow Wang Bodang to pick up oil leaks? ”
"Smack!"
He roared angrily, and then slapped Hu Xiaopeng in the face. Beat Hu Xiaopeng's eyes with gold stars.
Then, Wei Haoliang shouted sharply to the frightened soldiers around him: "What are you looking at? Don't hurry up and get to work! While the Zhou army has run away, why don't you hurry up and pull up these carts and turn around Wagang Village, let Mi Gong see, on our Wagang Mountain, there is not only one general who can fight, Wang Bodang. With me Wei Haoliang here, I can also defeat the Zhou army! Win the last victory! ”
Wei Haoliang is a left-behind general who has been stationed in Wagang Village for a long time after the development of the Wagang Army. It can be regarded as a good hand in the defenders of Wagangzhai. Regarding the defeat of the Wei army, he believed that Li Mi used the wrong person.
If he had been allowed to go down the mountain and fight on the plains, he would definitely have won the victory, and he would not have been defeated in successive battles like Wang Bodang.
But after Li Mi led the army back, Wang Bodang was entrusted with a heavy responsibility, and he stayed away from the power center of Wagangzhai. This made him very disappointed, and he had the idea of competing with Wang Bodang in his heart.
