Chapter 111: The target is Guazhou
The coalition forces of various countries were in unison in three directions, and the mighty 110,000 military horses rushed straight to the canyon.
The sentinel in front reported back to Pegasus, and there was a sudden argument within the southern camp, arguing with each other.
The tent was divided into two factions: a number of generals led by Meng Yi were ordered to fight and attack the coalition forces; The other faction was the retreating faction led by Tan Li, the chief secretary of the army.
Tan Li stepped forward and said to Xu Feng, "The thief army is coming this time, and our army is demoralized and full of wounded soldiers. It is better to retreat the whole army to Daijun for the time being, and it is the best policy to hold on to the waiting side for reinforcements through the city defense barriers! ”
Xu Feng sat in front of the handsome case and frowned, did not say a word, and let the two factions come and go, accusing and arguing with each other.
"Justice, the enemy is close at hand, and it is coming! If they are besieged in this canyon, our southern camp will not be able to retreat, and they will not be able to advance, so they can only sit and wait for them to die! Meng Yi saw that Xu Feng was silent, and hurriedly stomped his feet under the tent.
"How did I not know that the situation was imminent?" Xu Feng let out a long sigh, his face full of melancholy, "The previous peace agreement was almost reached, but Ouyang Han suddenly killed him halfway!" That guy made such a fuss, and it completely ruined the whole plan......"
"Then let's withdraw to Daijun and defend the rescue!" Tan Li hurriedly followed, "The Southern Battalion is the great general's hard work for many years, and it must not be destroyed by us!" If the southern camp is broken, then the southern gateway of my Daxu will not be completely opened, and there will be no armament to defend! ”
"Don't I know about Heyuan (Tan Li)'s worries?" Xu Feng lowered his eyes gloomily and sighed, "But...... Where are the reinforcements in the south...... There are only more than 10,000 military horses that can be mobilized to fight in the entire territory of Guazhou, which is simply a drop in the bucket...... The only one who can gallop to our aid is the military horse of Bai Ang in the East Battalion. Even if he is willing to save us, it will take more than a month to communicate at the earliest...... Now if we retreat to Daijun to defend it, once the enemy army storms, the city will be destroyed in less than half a month! ”
"Then let's gather all the soldiers and horses in the entire territory of Guazhou to Dai County! Bet on how long the lives of all your net worth can be delayed, and swear to fight the thieves to the end! Tan Li's expression was sad, and he was already looking at death as if he were at home.
Xu Feng sighed, looked at the flickering candle flame in front of the handsome desk and fell into deep thought. I have fought for so many years, but for the first time, I have fallen into such an extremely embarrassing predicament that I can't fight, I can't retreat, and I can't retreat - an unprecedented feeling of powerlessness suddenly hit my whole body.
At this moment, the sentry entered the account again and reported, "The enemy army has passed the Kakugawa Mountain and has reached the Cloud Valley!" ”
"Cloud Valley?" Xu Fengmeng raised his head, quickly got up and looked back at the southern military map hanging in the tent, staring carefully. Suddenly, he slapped his head and exclaimed again and again, "I didn't even think of such a simple truth." What a damn one! ”
When everyone saw that he was in a state of madness, they all stopped arguing and raised their eyes to look at him.
After Xu Feng finished reading, without waiting for everyone to ask, he turned around with laughter, "Don't panic, generals, this is my southern camp that the sky will not die, God bless me Daxu!" ”
The people under the tent were like falling into the clouds, and they did not understand what they meant. Meng Yi said bluntly, "The enemy army has arrived in Yungu in only five days, and according to the speed of this march, it will arrive in less than half a month!" Isn't this a fool's dream, looking for me to be happy? ”
Xu Feng hurriedly walked to the tent, pulled up Meng Yi and Tan Li to the front of the tent, picked up the oil lamp and explained to him, "Look at the two of you, although there are more than 100,000 enemy soldiers and horses, it took five days to cross this Jiaochuan Mountain without any obstacles. What do you think this means? ”
Meng Yi and Tan Li listened to Xu Feng's explanation, and looked at the picture carefully by the light.
After a moment, Meng Yi took the lead in frowning and asked, "The speed of this march is unreasonable...... Under the disparity between the enemy and us, it is natural to pay attention to a quick solution. But the coalition army seemed to be absent-minded, and it was really strange that the march was so slow! Could it be that we are deliberately leaving enough time to prepare for the enemy? ”
Tan Li also agreed with Meng Yi's doubts, and stared at the sheepskin map for a long time, lest he leave any inadvertent details behind. Slowly turning his head, he asked Xu Feng, "Wen Shan is right. It's just that I don't understand what the thief army wants to do when the victory is clearly in hand? ”
"The commander of the coalition this time is Wei Ning, one of the six heroes of Chen Guo, and I have dealt with him several times. Although I don't know much about him, I can know a little bit about him. Xu Feng saw that the two of them finished reading, so he put the oil lamp back on the handsome case, and chuckled, "This person is by no means a vain person, he has a lot of strategies and is proficient in dangerous ways." If this is used as a protrusion, it is not difficult to understand ......"
As soon as Xu Feng's words fell, Meng Yi on the side shouted in a panic, "Could it be that this is a disguise?" Isn't the real purpose of the thieves? ”
These words stunned everyone, and Tan Li asked a little stumblingly, "Should it be...... Should...... No way...... Apart from us, who else in the south can make them so excited......"
Xu Feng didn't answer immediately, and the herald detective entered the account and asked, "Have you ever seen the 'Wei Zi' military flag of Chen Guo among the three military horses?" ”
The sentinel thought for a long time, and finally shook his head with a determined face.
Xu Feng suddenly lowered his head with a solemn face, as if he was thinking about something.
On the side, Meng Yigang wanted to interrupt and ask, but Tan Li grabbed him and stopped him with a look.
I saw Xu Feng suddenly look up and sigh, turned around a little stiffly and silently put down the oil lamp, and began to mumble to himself, "The coalition forces are almost out of the nest this time...... But the coach sat alone in Guangyang...... And deliberately let us perceive...... Aren't you afraid that Ouyang Han will repeat his old tricks again......"
As he spoke, he picked up the oil lamp in a panic, turned around and walked quickly to the map, and looked at the entire map carefully, afraid that he had missed something.
Just when Best had to get an explanation, Xu Feng's gaze suddenly fixed on the Guazhou City marked on the map, and he said to himself with a pale face, "No...... No way...... Do you give to others in the way of giving? ”
I don't know what Xu Feng is talking about, but I saw that his face was gloomy and his expression was in a trance. Meng Yi couldn't bear to put a hand on his shoulder, and said, "What's wrong!" ”
Being slapped violently by him, Xu Fengfang came back to his senses and replied hesitantly, "If my guess is not wrong...... Wei Ning's ...... this time The goal of this time...... It's the ...... of Guazhou City."
"Guazhou?"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and Meng Yi even glanced at Tan Li, who was also stunned, and then forced a smile in disbelief, "What does fairness mean...... Is it that they want to hit Guazhou? How is this possible! Although there are no more than 10,000 military horses in Guazhou, they are easy to defend and difficult to attack. What's more, how could the little strength they had left be able to defeat Guazhou City! ”
"Yes......" Tan Li also expressed disbelief, "No matter from which point of view, Guazhou is not worth their fight!" ”
"But what if their purpose is to divide our troops to rescue, and then decide the winner in a battle!"
Although Xu Feng didn't want to guess whether it was true, judging from his understanding of Wei Ning over the years, such a risky and radical combat policy was in line with him.
"That's not right!" Tan Li thought for a long time along Xu Feng's train of thought, then raised his head and questioned, "If that's the case, they should be marching quickly." Before we have time to react, we should be besieged! ”
"yes!" After Tan Li's analysis, Meng Yi also agreed.
When Xu Feng heard this, although he also felt that there was nothing wrong with questioning, he still felt that his reasoning was not wrong.
Then, after pondering for a long time, he said, "But what if Wei Ning thinks so too?" I think I can guess his intentions and deliberately let us divide our troops to the rescue! ”
"Then he guessed wrong!" Meng Yi laughed and said, "Since we already know his combat intentions, how can we still divide our troops to go to the rescue, are we really stupid!" ”
After saying that, everyone laughed along.
"yes...... There's no reason for that...... But Wei Ning should also understand me......" Xu Feng frowned, still not daring to let his guard down.
Just when the atmosphere in the tent was relaxing, suddenly the guards outside the door entered the account to report, "Ouyang Han announced that the account has been entered!" ”
"Ouyang Han? He dared to come! ”
When they heard the name, they were furious. Xu Feng heard the word proclamation, and hurriedly stopped everyone, "Hurry up and go with me to listen to the decree!" ”
After speaking, he hurried out of the tent and led everyone to kneel and wait for the order.
When it was almost dusk, Ouyang Han saw that everyone was waiting for orders in an orderly manner, so he snorted coldly, turned over and dismounted. He began to read the will to the crowd with a high spirit.
The will is concise and concise, but every word is heartfelt. In particular, what is revealed between the lines is dissatisfaction with the generals of the Nanda Camp and Han Yu.
Although the generals were indignant, they could only dare to be angry but did not dare to speak. It wasn't until he listened to it that he learned that Liu Yu not only made Ouyang Han temporarily act as a general, but also personally supervised the army in Guazhou, and immediately whispered.
"Your Majesty's will is very clear: I hope you will be in the same boat with me and fight the thieves to the end! I wonder if you have any objections? Ouyang Han gently closed the holy decree, and through the torches held high by the soldiers on both sides, he peeked at the expressions of the generals with cold eyes.
When Xu Feng heard this, he bowed down to accept the holy decree and replied respectfully, "I am waiting for the general on behalf of the generals of the southern battalion!" ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and led Ouyang Han into the tent.
As soon as he entered the account, Ouyang Han looked around with his head held high and cold eyes, and couldn't help but be overjoyed. Looking at the familiar, strange and familiar scene in front of him, the resentment that Ouyang Han had been holding up in his heart for a long time suddenly surged into his heart.
First, I touched the familiar sandalwood military chairs under the tent, and the long-lost smell came into my heart. Then, the two bright eyes walked up to the handsome case, greedily touching every part of the handsome case that he had dreamed of for many years, but he had been unable to stop, and the meaning was endless.
"General!" Xu Feng took in Ouyang Han's various behaviors under the tent, sighed and asked, "Is Your Majesty really in Guazhou at the moment?" ”
"yes......"
Ouyang Han faced the long-cherished wish in front of him, and he didn't have time to savor it, but was interrupted by Xu Feng. Immediately, he looked displeased and said coldly, "When Han Xiaozhi is here, are you so unruly!" ”
