Chapter 0126 - Attack with deception
Zhao Tuo's rebels numbered quite a lot, and the original garrison troops under him and Fang Bufang, plus the anti-Qin elements they had instigated with the help of their incorruptible tongues, totaled more than 100,000 people, and the weapons were also excellent, but there was no gunpowder, let alone explosives.
It's just that Yun Xiaoshui didn't figure it out, after Ren Huan's death, how did Zhao Tuo get the military power? It's hanging! Fang Bufang had come into contact with gunpowder, but he was not very smart in this regard, and he was never able to understand the formula of gunpowder, especially the proportions.
I thought that I could force Zhao Tuo to go west by attacking from the north and south, but I didn't expect Fang Bu Fang to go west, but Zhao Tuo turned around and went east! Yun Xiaoshui immediately made a decision to let go of annihilation, and the ideological and political offensive of propaganda had been carried out early, and it was time to accept the results!
Yun Xiaoshui ordered Wind Thunder and Flash to abandon the infantry to block Zhao Tuo's rear road, and then led the cavalry troops to raid the rear of the rebels, and during the raid, they opened the way with the fire hammer team and crossbowmen to lead the way, giving the rebels a dismount and promoting their internal division.
Yun Xiaoshui himself led his troops, and also used crossbowmen and firecrackers as the vanguard, closely chasing after Fang Bufang's more than 30,000 people. Although the army led by Yun Xiaoshui at this time was only 30,000, his 30,000 was too elite compared to Fang Bu Fang's 30,000, and it was not a problem to use one to two, plus Yun Xiaoshui used his handy tricks to send spies to hide among the people in disguise as commoners, and join the team when the rebels recruited soldiers along the way. Whenever Yun Xiaoshui's pursuers approached to attack the rebels, the spies within the rebels waited for an opportunity to carry out assassinations, spread rumors, and even set fire to grain and grass to cause sabotage.
He didn't wait for the need for the Western Military Camp Meng Yi Battalion to intercept it, Fang Bu Fang already felt that the future was uncertain and regretted rebelling. Oh, yes! It's not good to put the deputy county guard, why follow Zhao Tuo to oppose Qin? If you succeed, you can't be the king, and if you fail, you will definitely die!
Regret and fart! At this time, the gods can't save him.
"Report! Fang Junshi! The pursuers behind did not keep up, and there was no army within a hundred miles ahead, could our army rest for a day? There is a large gentle river here, and the current is not deep, and you can pass it directly without boats! My subordinates have tried! Our army can sit down on both sides of the river, bury the pot and make food, and cross the river while resting. ”
There were also a few people with brains in the rebels, and then one of the soldiers shouted: "Pig brains? Could such a large river have such a shallow water level and such a docile current in this season? Aren't you afraid that when the army reaches the middle of the river, the water suddenly rises, and all of them are drowned? ”
The man who suggested to Fang Bufang was an officer, and when he heard that the soldier not only shouted but also dared to openly humiliate him, he immediately became angry, jumped over and threw the sword in his hand, and stabbed the soldier in the chest, and fell to the ground immediately. The soldiers around him were stupid, but in fact, the soldiers were not only frightened at this time, but also disappointed and angry in their hearts! The soldier said something that he should think about and was killed! This is too uncaring for his subordinates, right?
Fang Bufang saw that this little officer's sword had lost the morale of the army, and he hurriedly made a round and said: "This is the end of those who spread rumors and confuse the public!" Send someone upstream to take a look, and then decide that you can't cross the river when the scout returns! ”
Immediately, a group of scouts headed upstream along the river. About two hours later, the scout said that he hadn't seen any dams or anything like that, and that the water had always been like this, and that the river should be so normal!
Fang Bufang then ordered to eat and cross the river. After crossing the river and advancing another hundred miles, the scouts, then called scouts, came again to report that there were still no troops in sight for a hundred miles ahead, and that there was a larger river in sight, close to the river that had just crossed, and the water was shallow and gentle, but it was twice as wide as the surface of the river, and the banks of the two rivers were much wider.
This time, Fang Bufang seemed to be a little bolder, and directly ordered the army to bury pots and cook in the riverbed, and the soldiers crossed the river in batches. Just as they relaxed their vigilance and were leisurely crossing the river and resting, there was a sudden sound of "whoosh-whoosh" from the upper reaches of the river, and there was also water flowing on both sides of the river......
"Oh no! It's time for the water...... Report to the military division of the reporting party, the flood is coming, quickly order the army to go ashore! Hearing the report of a sentry officer, Fang Bufang's eyes turned red, and he immediately roared: "The order is to go ashore, don't worry about the horses!" That's it's too late for him! Then he looked up to the sky and shouted: "Heaven will not help my family!" I'm not as good as Yun Xiaoshui! ”
Hehe! Is it not just you? You are a good drop and a cloud is a little water!
Yun Xiaoshui, who had not kept up, suddenly appeared on the bank of the river at this time, and the two banks were full of crossbowmen and firecrackers at the same time.
"Lay down your arms and don't kill! Helping officers and soldiers capture thieves is meritorious! ”
Both sides shouted at the same time, seeing the flood rushing, the bows and crossbows and arrows on both sides flashed with a terrifying cold light, and the rebels of Fang Bufang were completely incapacitated. They all threw down their weapons and surrendered......
In the end, Yun Xiaoshui inevitably confronted Fang Bu Fang.
"Young Master Ben only asks you one word, Fang Bu Fang! When did you start opposing or hating me? His eyes were red, standing in the water, surrounded by a group of pro-soldiers, Fang Bu Fang's face was gloomy, and he looked at Yun Xiaoshui coldly and didn't say a word for a long time. Among his four loyal followers, one named Li Yi spoke on his behalf: "Master Guo, don't blame our son-in-law for betraying you, after all, I saw that you were a little named Huazi, and I didn't know even the words originally, once lucky, prosperous, and enjoying glory and wealth, it is really enviable, so if you want to be promoted, if you want to be promoted, you will inevitably have to rely on some people or things!" Our son-in-law is here to help! You are a big official, and you are also blessed, and you can be promoted to a bigger official if you borrow light! ”
"Hehehe...... This should be the statement that Grand Prince Fang gave to the four of you at the beginning, to cover up his own kindness and revenge, and to confuse you again! I don't blame you! Don't blame him either! However, this time the law of the land will not blame you! ”
Yun Xiaoshui waved his hand after speaking, where would he talk nonsense with them again? The bow and crossbow and the fire hammer were fired in unison, "tom-tom-" "swish...... Fang Bu Fang and dozens of his own soldiers around him were all shot into hedgehogs in an instant!
After cleaning up the battlefield, the things in the water can't be salvaged, so leave it to the local government to deal with it! Yun Xiaoshui waved his army back, joined forces with Feng Lei and Flash, and launched a decisive battle with Zhao Tuo's rebels!
"How many of our agents have been imported into Zhao Tuo's army?"
Listening to Yun Xiaoshui's question, Feng Lei looked at the flash, the number that the flash had just reported, 423 people, and the fire gun only brought over the short thirteen strokes.
"Order them not to act, to protect themselves, and to wait until the time of the general attack to find ways to create chaos, such as spreading rumors, setting fires, or sneaking up on officers with muskets in the most chaotic times. Of course, this requires being prepared for sacrifice! ”
"Yes! My lord! A lot of what we send to the past is 'Death'! ”
The so-called "death" is to have the determination to die, knowing that after completing the task, you will not be able to get out of the whole body, and you must complete the task at all costs!
When the time for the decisive battle between the two armies came, Yun Xiaoshui used the word "fraud", "soldiers are not tired of cheating"!
