"What does Elder Gai think if I rob the Nangong Court in the middle of the Dao?" Liu Yun asked.

Because of the rapid march, Liu Yun had to raise his tone a few points and said to Gai Xun in a shouting way.

Gai Xun also had to shout in the same way: "The lord has a very good plan, cut off his reinforcements, cut off his hope, and then encircle Xiangwu, no matter how great Ma Tie is, he will never be able to fly." ”

"If Ma Teng knew that Shouyang was broken, he would definitely be unwilling in his heart, and he must have already made a plan. And if I know that I am trapped in the Xiangwu guarded by his son, I am afraid that reinforcements will arrive soon. Gai Lao, I plan to surround the point to send reinforcements, and then surround the point. first cut Ma Teng's two reinforcements, killed his vitality, and then surrounded Xiangwu to force Ma Tie to submit. At that time, under the siege of my two roads, Ma Tie guarded this lonely city, and there was no way to retreat. ”

Although Liu Yun doesn't like to talk to Gai Xun, an old fox, now, he still wants to verify his thoughts.

After all, Liu Yun's tactics and thinking are all on paper, and there must be many things that he can't think of.

And Gai Xun has always been a real veteran of a hundred battles.

"The lord is meticulously planned, and he is willing to lead 2,000 troops to refuse the reinforcements of Didao." Gai Xun suddenly took the initiative to ask for help.

This shocked Liu Yun, Gai Xun actually took the initiative to ask for his life!

This is really unprecedented.

Liu Yun was extremely surprised and asked, "Where does Gai Lao plan to resist the enemy?" ”

"Birds and mice are in the same cave mountain, if Di Dao sends troops to help Xiangwu, this is a small road that must be passed." Gai Xun said.

Liu Yun glanced sideways strangely, and asked rhetorically: "Birds and mice are in the same cave mountain, why is this name so strange?" ”

In Longxi in later generations, Liu Yun didn't know about it, and now he doesn't know it even more.

It has only been a long time since he arrived in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and he is not even familiar with Hanyang County, let alone other places.

Birds and mice are in the same cave mountain, the name is strange enough, and it sounds a bit evil.

Gai Xun explained: "The name of this mountain is given by Dayu, Weishui comes out of this mountain, and according to legend, it is named because there are two strange shapes of birds and rats. Speaking of which, there is also a kind of fish here, called eel, and it is rumored that as soon as this fish comes out, the world will be in turmoil! ”

Liu Yun properly gained a lot of knowledge, this place is still the name of Dayu, and it is still the birthplace of Weishui.

Such a strange place, I have never heard of it before.

"That fish, is it really that amazing?" Liu Yun asked curiously.

chatted about the deployment of the war, because of the name of this mountain, Liu Yun accidentally pulled away.

Gai Xun smiled noncommittally and said, "It's just a rumor. ”

"The world is so big that there are no wonders, and maybe there are real ones. Since Gai Lao has a plan, then there is Lao Gai Lao, I will go to meet this Nangong Ting, and I don't know if this product is a relative of Nangong Boyu and their family! Liu Yun said with a smile.

Gai Xun then reined in his horse, ordered 2,000 soldiers and horses, and turned south.

Before leaving, he suddenly said to Liu Yun: "The lord can catch that guy and ask him about his background before cutting off his head." ”

"I'll ask, after all, I'm so gossipy."

Liu Yun chuckled, waved his hand at Gai Xun, and took the rest of the men and horses straight to Wuxiju.

Liu Yun was completely unclear about the terrain here, so he had to find a soldier who was familiar with the local topography to lead the way.

I didn't think about it, I accidentally found a chatter, that kid knew a lot, and he quoted scriptures to Liu Yun's sycophants, and by the way, he also gave Liu Yun a science about the history of Wuxi Ju.

Liu Yun deeply thought that Gongsun Lu had brought an unhealthy trend in the army, and these people were more ruthless than the other.

However, Liu Yun did gain some insight slightly.

Similar to the bird and mouse in the same cave mountain, this Wuxi gathering is not an ordinary place.

It turned out that the former heroes of the Han Dynasty had gathered in Wuxi and defeated the rebellious Xian Lingqiang.

So Wuxi gathered this place, and it became famous.

The land of Longxi, the silk road, has been a battleground for soldiers since ancient times.

Many places are ancient battlefields, and in terms of strangeness, there is not much unusual.

It's just that this one is more famous, and Wuxi Ju has become famous.

Although this person is not listed as the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai, he is a proper boss in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and he is famous for thousands of years.

……

Wuxi Gathering.

Under the hazy night, there is nothing to see here except black mountains and snow.

Liu Yun's scout was like a ghost, panting for breath and running quickly between the mountains and fields.

Report the direction of Nangong Ting's march in a timely manner.

From the obstacle county into Xiangwu, this is the only mountain trail.

If you take the avenue, you must detour near Wushan and then pass through the road to reach Xiangwu.

If you go around in such a big circle, the war is estimated to be over long ago.

In this hazy early morning, everything seems to be peaceful, and it seems to be full of ghosts.

The scouts under Liu Yun's command, under the military orders that fell like a mountain, now also have a tendency to develop towards ghosts, and they have gradually matured.

Whoever grasps the direction of the military movement first will have the first opportunity in the war.

Liu Yun has always been a cautious person, and he has not only sent dozens of scouts to keep an eye on the movements of the Nangong Ting Army.

At the same time, a lot of scouts were also scattered in all directions, preventing Nangong Court from sending scouts to spy on the military situation ahead.

It is also guarded against some other factors that are not very stable, after all, no one would have expected that there would be a group of people like Liu Yun hiding in that ravine.

The difference between ambush and general planning seems to be very great, but it is only the difference between knowing and not knowing.

The root of all this is, after all, intelligence.

A flash of firelight suddenly appeared on the mountainside in the distance, and at a very fast speed, entered the valley.

"My lord, the enemy army is five miles away."

The scout, whose face was red from the cold, gasped and reported to Liu Yun.

Liu Yun couldn't help but be a little nervous, and said to the scouts beside him: "I saw it, withdraw all the scouts!" ”

"Whoa!" The scout replied in a low voice, and at great speed, he went over the mountain.

Liu Yun stood on the rocks covered by grass and trees, and carefully thought about it, as if everything was almost ready.

However, he was still a little nervous.

In fact, Liu Yun is not worried about whether this battle will be lost or won, what he is nervous about is just wanting to die a few fewer people.

Indeed, one will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither, this is the truth on the battlefield.

But Liu Yun always wanted to reduce his own losses and compress them to a minimum.

He is the lord of this group of people, and the commander of the military horse of Hanyang!

What he is planning is not to make great achievements in war, to expand the land and seal the marquis.

It's a bright future!

The firelight turned out from the valley, and Liu Yun could already see the faces of those soldiers clearly.

The infantry led by Nangong Court was all infantry, and only the first was less than 100 cavalry.

Liu Yun guessed that it should be Nangong Ting and his personal soldiers.

No matter what the combat effectiveness of these soldiers is, as far as the infantry is concerned, Nangong Court has already lost to Liu Yun.

The confidence in Liu Yun's heart suddenly increased a lot.

Mother's legs, cavalry vs. infantry, intentional vs. unintentional, this battle, no matter how you fight, it shouldn't be too miserable.

The severed trees lay in the middle of the road, blocking the way of the Nangong Tingjun.

Liu Yun looked at it fixedly, the guy who was guarded in the middle, wearing red armor, and didn't know if his face was frozen, or if he was born very red, it should be Nangong Ting.

It seems that he should not be more than thirty years old, and there is still a hint of childlike childishness on his face.

If you ignore those mustaches, he looks like a child.

Hearing the soldier's report, Nangong Ting stopped the troops and jumped off the horse.

He looked cautious, looked up at the surrounding mountains, and then ordered his soldiers to remove the trees that stood in his way.

If it was usual, such obvious traces should have aroused his suspicions.

But it just snowed heavily a few days ago, and it is normal for trees to be crushed by the snow.

At this time, Liu Yun was above his head, and Nangong Ting's every move could be seen clearly.

"Herald, Rolling Stone!" Liu Yun snorted at the soldiers beside him.

Soon, Liu Yun's order spread word of mouth to the whole army.

Just when Nangong Court sent someone to remove the big tree, something suddenly happened.

Huge rocks suddenly rolled down overhead, followed by a continuous rain of arrows.

The rumbling sound is like the earth shaking the mountains, and it is like a giant beast turning over in the mountains.

The Nangong Court Department didn't have time to react at all, so it was caught off guard.

When the rocks hit the ground, they took away a group of sergeants.

The rain of arrows that fell from the heights, saw the seams, and harvested frantically.

They have become crabs that have been covered by Liu Yun into the pot, even if they have tongs, they have nowhere to use.

In the rolling boulders, none of them had a chance to hold arrows.

As for the gun in his hand, it is estimated that it is okay to poke the air, and the enemy will not be able to reach it anyway.

"There is an ambush, there is an ambush!"

Nangong Ting yelled and hurriedly retreated.

His reaction speed was still relatively fast, and when he saw that something was wrong, he led people to retreat immediately.

But how could Liu Yun let him go so easily, rolling stones and arrows on the mountain, condescending to only reap people's heads.

And in the valley, three thousand cavalry were already ready to go.

With Liu Yun's order, he immediately rushed out, detoured to the valley mouth, and cut off Nangong Ting's retreat.

One after the other, Nangong Ting had no choice but to surrender except to fight to the death and fight a way out.

Seeing that the situation was in crisis, Nangong Ting quickly ordered the soldiers to gather together and put on a Wang Ba shell formation in Liu Yun's eyes.

That is, the soldiers hold shields to protect the surroundings, and the pikemen are interspersed with them to achieve the purpose of both offense and defense.

Nangong Ting intends to use such a formation to break through the cavalry under Liu Yun's command.

But the mountain road is narrow, and both sides are actually not easy to perform.

But in the end, it was the cavalry that had the greater advantage.

When the cavalry began to charge, it was like an arrow that was fired, even if it was only a few horses, it was not something that the infantry could easily stop.

Like a sharp knife, the cavalry under Liu Yun's command easily cut through the shell of the king.

The battle was very close, but it looked more like a one-sided harvest.

This time, Liu Yun also took a real look at the combat effectiveness of this group of Dunhuang soldiers.

They don't look like recruits at all.

After thinking about it, Liu Yun also roughly figured it out.

These soldiers recruited by Gaixun from the bitter cold of the frontier were very different from the soldiers in other places.

Compared with trying to survive in the bitter cold land, they are more willing to fight hard with the knife in their hands to seek a future and a good life for their wives and sons.

They are born warriors on horseback!

In despair, Nangong Ting discarded the knife in his hand and knelt on the ground with a dejected face.

After being killed by these cavalrymen for a round trip, there were less than five hundred men left at his side.

The strength of friend and foe has been measured in his heart.

No matter how many people were still hiding on this mountain, just these cavalry, he couldn't escape.

"I'll surrender, surrender! Willing to hand over the obstacle county. ”

Nangong Ting knelt down and shouted loudly, as if he was afraid that if the shouting was quiet, the knives in the hands of those cavalrymen would cut off his head.

Liu Yun stood on the mountain rock with his hands behind his back, and shouted down: "Take them and rush to the aid of Xiangwu immediately." ”

The scouts who followed Liu Yun closely quickly conveyed the order to the entire army.

Nangong Ting faintly heard the voice, turned his head sharply, and looked up, but he only saw a back.

Without stopping for a moment, Liu Yun sent people to clean up the messy battlefield, and immediately led the army to Xiangwu.

I hope this kid Wang Zhi can hold on!

According to the scout's report, in Xiangwu, the people on both sides were almost equal.

One side defends, one side attacks, and naturally the defenders take advantage.

……

Outside Xiangwu City, the continuous camp tents are like hills undulating on the banks of the Weishui River.

The soldiers of the guard slept deeply on their spears, and the hoarfrost stained their brows, making them old overnight.

The tumbling of Weishui is like a galloping army.

The fading moonlight and the rising sun mixed the earth into a miserable white.

Quietly, the gate of Xiangwu City slowly opened.

A group of horsemen with their bells and hooves wrapped in their hooves quickly left the city.

Immediately, the sergeant was silent and silent, and under the leadership of the tiger-backed general, he quietly approached the barracks a few miles away.

The night sky, which was gradually whitening, faded into darkness, like a cold blade about to be unsheathed.

Suddenly, blood splattered the tent.

Kicked over the brazier, burning the dying dream.

The screaming voice woke up Wang Zhi who was asleep.

He jerked over, grabbed the long knife under his head, and rushed out of the tent.

The camp tent in front of him was full of fire, and his heart was like a cold tide when he saw it, and his eyes were full of horror.

"General, general, run! The enemy attacked the camp, and the brothers could no longer hold on. ”

The soldiers rushed over and hurriedly escorted Wang Zhi's left and right.

Looking at the tent of the continuous war, Wang Zhi shook his head fiercely, and stubbornly roared: "No! I can't go back. The lord trusts me, and he has entrusted me with such a great matter, and if I am defeated at this time, what face will I have to see the lord? Integrate the centaurs for me, and kill the enemy with a certain one! ”

"General, the general trend has gone! The brothers were completely defenseless, caught off guard by the killing, and had already scattered in all directions. The soldiers shouted anxiously, and grabbed Wang Zhi's arm as he spoke.

Wang Zhi was coerced and walked two steps, and suddenly stopped again.

In his eyes, there was suddenly a hint of rejection.

"Do you know what the most important thing is the lord?" Wang Zhi suddenly asked the soldiers around him.

The soldier was stunned by the question and shook his head.

He didn't understand why the general was still in the mood to ponder these things, shouldn't he run for his life first?

Wang Zhi took a deep breath and said resolutely: "It's you, it's everyone!" Every soldier! ”

"So the general can't hit the stone, Ma Tie took advantage of our army's unpreparedness to sneak attack, now is the time when the edge is in its prime, our army is tired, people's hearts are scattered, this is not the opportunity to fight to the death!" The pro-soldier borrowed the slope to get off the donkey and hurriedly said.

Wang Zhimeng pushed away his own soldiers, choked up and shouted: "You go first, I'll come to the palace!" It was I who neglected to take precautions and caused this disaster, not only did not do an inch, but also let these many brothers die in vain, I am ashamed of the lord and my brothers! ”

The soldiers suddenly knelt on the ground, and their faces were full of gloom.

"I'm willing to advance and retreat with the general!"

"I am willing to advance and retreat with the general!"

Wang Zhi's moved gaze swept over the more than 20 pro-soldiers one by one, and said with a wry smile: "The lord often says that I am the most timid general who leads the army. I think that people's fierceness and fear of death should be time-shared. I have participated in everything from the Yellow Turban Cholera to the Dong Thieves Rebellion, and among my brothers, I am the longest-lived one. ”

"I also thought about charging forward with the courage to defy death, but I always felt that they were not worthy of me. But since I met the lord, I am willing to be the dead soldier who charges into battle! ”

"That being the case, brothers, take up your swords and kill with me!"

Wang Zhi, who was red-eyed in the roar, and the more than 20 pro-soldiers around him, suddenly seemed to be crazy.

Having given up their last chance of escape, they were soon caught in a heavy encirclement.

One soldier after another died beside him, and Wang Zhi's eyes were red, and tears were in full swing.

Looking at the corpses of those brothers, he vigorously swung the long knife that was getting duller and duller.

This is Zhao Deng's ring-headed knife made for him, Zhao Deng once proudly said that this knife can behead a thousand heads.

But now, how many people are there?

There should be dozens, right? Probably a little more.

The corpses piled up at his feet into a small mountain, and his scarred arms were no longer able to lift them.

The figure in front of him, for some reason, became a little blurry.

On the other side, Ma Tie, who rushed over after hearing the news, was shocked when he saw this tragic scene.

He dragged his spear backwards, and slowly walked towards Wang Zhi in the way that the soldiers had away.

"Liangzhou characters are so heroic, my family Ah Weng often says so. When I saw you today, I was convinced, you are a mountain bandit and horse thief, I never thought that you would have such strength. Wang Zhi, if you can defeat this gun in my hand, I will spare your life, how about it? ”

Ma Tie stared at Wang Zhi, who was covered in blood, and some people were not ghosts or ghosts.

Although he is still young, his martial family style has always made him respect heroes.

When I saw Wang Zhi at this time, I couldn't help but feel a little sorry for each other.

This person deserves to be a hero.

Who's talking? Wang Zhi couldn't see clearly.

His gaze was stained with blood and turned scarlet, and with instinctive intuition, Wang Zhi looked at the voice for help.

However, only a vague figure could be seen.

He seems to be going to compare?

Wang Zhi tilted his head sideways and recalled, and lifted the blunt knife that had become extraordinarily heavy.

"Kill ——!"

It was like a throat that had been smoked by thick smoke, and it was as hoarse as broken copper and iron.
