Chapter 139: Different
"The concubine deceives people too much!" After a scuffle, Yuan Shu withdrew to the camp under the protection of the soldiers, and arranged for the shooters to shoot the position, so that Hua Xiong did not rush in, but in today's battle, the losses were very heavy, many soldiers trampled on each other, and there were countless casualties, and Chen Mo's side lost only some fire oil and the Xiliang Iron Cavalry who died in the melee, and I don't know if it is enough for five hundred.
After he was the fourth and third duke, he commanded an army of 50,000 people, but he was beaten by a thief like Chen Mo, who had not even reached the weak crown, with a weak opponent, which made Yuan Shu not angry.
The generals in the tent bowed their heads one by one and were silent, this Chen Mo first used traps, trebuchets and fire oil to suppress their morale, and when it was getting late and they were about to withdraw their troops, they suddenly sent cavalry to kill.
It can't be said that the soldiers under Yuan Shu's command are incompetent, it can only be said that Chen Mo grasped the timing too well, and he was stuck in the fact that the fighting spirit of Yuan's army was almost grinded, and when he was ready to withdraw the army, the advantage of the cavalry was also here, and the mobility was too strong, they simply didn't have enough time to respond, and when the army retreated, they suddenly had to change formations, and the gods couldn't do it.
It's just that Yuan Shu is angry at this moment, and no one dares to refute it.
"Lord!" Yang Hong thought for a while and said: "Chen Mo is a person, scheming, today's defeat, it seems that our army is invincible, but in fact, Chen Mo used traps and catapults to exhaust the morale of our army step by step, and when the soldiers withdrew, it was the time when morale was the lowest, and Chen Mo has been avoiding fighting, but when our army withdrew, he suddenly killed, it is really cunning, this battle is not the crime of all soldiers, it is imperative that we first appease the army, reorganize morale, and then fight with Chen Mo, we will be able to overcome it in a battle." ”
The generals also breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, as soon as Yang Hong said this, they had a lot less guilt, and for a while, they were grateful to Yang Hong.
"Moreover, Chen Mo's means should have been exhausted today, and when the morale of our army recovers and we fight again in the coming day, it will be the time for a showdown." Yang Hong smiled: "So the lord doesn't have to worry at all. ”
These crooked tricks can only be used once, and now that the trap prepared by Chen Mo in advance has been cleared, it is difficult to pose a threat to the army again, and if they fight again, it is the ability of both sides to attack and defend.
And the routines of attacking the camp and defending the camp are those, and it is more about the control of the details of the generals, at this point, Yuan Shu has many generals on his side, and Chen Mo actually has no danger to defend, so naturally Yuan Shu has the advantage.
"Good!" Yuan Shu slapped the table and said: "The generals will follow the words of the military division to rectify military discipline and reorganize morale!" ”
"The last general commands!" The generals bowed down and departed.
……
Yang people gather, Chen Mo camp.
"The general's methods will be admired by the general." After Hua Xiong came back with the army, he looked at Chen Mo with admiration, this battle was really a victory, if it wasn't for Yuan Shu hiding back in the camp, maybe Yuan Shu would have been captured alive.
"Don't be too busy admiring." Chen Mo saw Hua Xiong coming back, and after motioning for him to sit down, he said, "General Yang just sent a message that those people on the top of the mountain have already surrendered, and now they have been taken down the mountain to see the detention. ”
After all, the top of the cliff is not even easy to find a water source, Yu Shi was broken, the grain and grass were cut off, and there were no bows and arrows, and he was trapped for two days, and he couldn't support it.
"The general's meaning is ......," Hua Xiong said unexpectedly.
"Now that the cliff tops on both sides have been completely occupied by our army, there is no need for the Yang people to gather anymore, and we will withdraw tonight!" Chen Mo nodded to the table.
"Fang has a big victory, how can you withdraw the army at this time?" Hu Zhen frowned.
"We are here, this is to stop Yuan Shu, pull out the Yuan army on the top of the cliff, now the purpose has been achieved, here is not as dangerous as Yique Pass after all, if the war starts here, Yuan Shu's soldiers and horses are several times more than me, after all, it is not good for our army, it is better to withdraw to Yique Pass, according to the pass and guard." Chen Mo smiled.
"The general laughed, today our army did not hurt many people, and the Yuan Shu was defeated, after Sun Jian went, Yuan Shu was no longer afraid, and the general increased the morale of Yuan Shu so much, it was too ...... Hehe~" Hu Zhen shook his head and said, he suffered defeat in the hands of Sun Jian in the past, but now he sees Yuan Shu so easy to bully, and Huaxiong has won great achievements one after another, and he will inevitably be sealed after this war, maybe he will climb directly on his head, and he came out this time, but he didn't make an inch, how could he want to evacuate?
"It's really not a big courage in the next place, it's better to be like this, General Huaxiong and I will withdraw to Yique Pass, General Hu will continue to garrison here, if you are not an enemy, you can also withdraw."
"It's nature." Hu Zhen asked himself Chen Mo that the means had been seen clearly, and this time he sent troops, Chen Mo only had more than 2,000 people in his own department, and Hua Xiong was only 3,000, but he had two schools, almost half, which was also the reason why Hu Zhen did not buy Chen Mo's face several times.
"In that case, let's settle it." Chen Mo didn't pay attention to Hu Zhen anymore, immediately got up, took Hua Xiong's troops out of the camp, and retreated to Yique Pass at night, while Hu Zhen sent people overnight to follow Chen Mo's method, continued to cover the barbs outside the camp, and dug a lot of ravines, ready to fight a victory in person, suppress Chen Mo's arrogance At the same time, he can also make a lot of meritorious achievements.
However, Yuan Shu obviously also prevented Chen Mo from repeating his old tricks, so he set up a lot of people and horses to monitor the movement here at night, and some people rushed up to fight if they wanted to set traps.
"This Chen Jialang is also poor in skills, so he can only repeat his old skills." Early the next morning, Yuan Shu, who had slept all night, heard his subordinates report about last night's events, and couldn't help but smile at the generals.
"Lord, the last general has already mobilized a lot of fire oil, and today we will use this method to burn down his camp!" Zhang Xun said with a smile.
"That's not all!" Yang Hong shook his head and said: "My lord, you can send two teams of men and horses to attack behind the enemy after the battle, to prevent that Chen Mo from taking the opportunity to escape back to Yique Pass, if you teach him to escape back to Yique Pass, this battle will not be easy to fight." ”
"Good!" Yuan Shu nodded, and immediately ordered two generals to lead 10,000 horses each, and after the battle, they went around to the rear of the enemy camp to block the enemy's return route.
Woo~
With the rousing horn accompanied by the rumbling war drums, the Yuan army, which had been repairing all night, came out of the camp again, and dozens of catapults slowly rolled out from the camp and approached the Hu Zhen camp.
Looking at Yuan Jun's battle, Hu Zhen sneered disdainfully, after a day, Yuan Shu was still the same old routine, and after the fourth and third dukes, it was just a little famous, so there was nothing to worry about.
At that moment, he ordered the archers to suppress it, so that the opponent's catapult would not be easy to approach, and at the same time keep an eye on the opponent's catapult, just wait for the opponent's catapult to fall into a trap as yesterday, and the catapult on his own side will be powerful.
However, to his surprise, the other party's catapult had stopped some distance from the trap he had dug, and things seemed to be different from what he expected.
In fact, it is not difficult to understand that the trap that Chen Mo dug yesterday was precisely calculated by Chen Mo, the range of the two sides, the approximate location of the enemy's catapult, Chen Mo was from the perspective of Yuan Shu's command, otherwise there was no need for Dian Wei to run to provoke himself to delay time, and the barbs and traps outside the camp were also exquisite, Chen Mo's attainments in mathematics were not low, and the traps he arranged, unless Yang Xiu was a person who was unforgettable and proficient in mathematics and physics, could learn it, otherwise it was an experienced military general who could see the method arranged by Chen Mo. You can't follow it if you don't know how to do it.
Hu Zhen only said that it was easy to win yesterday, but he didn't know how much effort Chen Mo spent for yesterday's victory, so that Yuan Shu was controlled by him step by step, not to mention that Yuan Shu suffered a loss, so he was naturally wary of Chen Mo's old tricks, and now Hu Zhen has learned from the cat and the tiger, but he didn't even think about the fundamental problem, how can he let Yuan Shu be fooled?
Just when Hu Zhen was stunned, the catapult on Yuan Shu's side had begun to put on the cans of fire oil, and the cans of fire oil fell towards the wall, in a hurry, Hu Zhen got down the wall under the drag of the guards, and the next moment, the entire wall was infected by countless fire oil, and the pungent smell finally made Hu Zhen react, yesterday Chen Mo cleaned up Yuan Jun like this, but today it was replaced by Yuan Jun to clean him up.
"Quick, evacuate!" didn't care about anything else, Hu Zhen hurriedly ordered the soldiers on the wall to run down, but the next moment, countless rockets had already been shot over, and in an instant, the entire camp wall was plunged into a sea of fire.
Hu Zhen climbed up to an arrow tower and looked into the distance, and saw Yuan Shu's army began to clean the traps, using spears to find pits, and soon the ravines he had dug overnight were exposed.
The catapult began to move forward, stopping in front of the crater, and began to fire fire canisters at the camp.
Finished!
Hu Zhen's face was a little pale, and the fire pot he hoarded around the catapult was originally for a while to facilitate the attack, but now, it has become a life-saving talisman here.
The pungent smell of fire oil spread in all directions, and the rockets that followed caused the entire military camp to fall into a sea of fire in an instant.
Countless war horses were thrown into chaos before anyone could ride them, and the war horses that came out of the fire ran in all directions, and the soldiers along the way were knocked into broken tendons, and the entire camp was on fire.
Hu Zhen was trapped in the fire, he turned over and jumped off the arrow tower in a hurry, and a personal guard brought his war horse, opened the rear gate and rushed out, but he finally rushed out of the sea of fire, looking at the soldiers of the Yuan army who came up around, Hu Zhen's face was pale, and until now, he didn't understand where he and Chen Mo were wrong? Why did Chen Mo beat the enemy yesterday without the power to fight back, but today he used it himself, but he was beaten by the enemy with the same method and had no power to fight back.
"The thief will not dismount and surrender!?" Several generals of the Yuan army came to the front of the formation, looking at Hu Zhen, a small group of people, with a hint of banter and a hint of joy in their voices.
Yesterday, they were beaten by these Xiliang troops and couldn't find the north, so today they will take back a city, how can they not be happy.
Hu Zhen looked at the remaining more than 100 soldiers behind him, and then looked at the sea of fire behind him, and without hesitating for too long, he threw away the weapons in his hand, dismounted and surrendered......
