"Lord Baili..."

The county lieutenant hurriedly told the Baili county order everything he had just known.

Baili Xi's expression was solemn when he heard this, and he asked rhetorically: "The Duke of Han has led the army for several years, and there is almost no defeat, why would he lead more than 1,000 people to attack so rashly, and then be blocked by 50,000 Hu Rén Dà troops on Fangyu Mountain!" ”

The slope of the hill where Liu De is now stationed is known as Fangyu Mountain by the locals.

"Perhaps, Han Gong is a little careless!"

The county lieutenant muttered, giving his own explanation.

"That's not right!"

Baili Xi waved his hand and vetoed: "Even if the Duke of Han underestimates the enemy, but Xu Shu is a resourceful man, and Qin Qiong is also a good general in a hundred battles, how can he not dissuade him?" What do you think? ”

The latter sentence Baili Xi asked Meng Mingshi, who was standing aside.

Meng Mingshi thought for a while, and then said with some hesitation: "Father, does the child think that the lord is not using himself as bait?" Want to bloom in the center and counter-surround the Hu people? ”

Baili Xi twisted his beard lightly and nodded with satisfaction: "It's not in vain that my father has taught me for many years, and my father also thinks that Han Gong thinks like this, but this plan is too dangerous, Xu Shu is a safe person, and it seems that he will not propose such a dangerous plan!" ”

"Oops! Lord Baili, don't think about who came up with the plan, what should we do now! Do you want to send troops to support Han Gong? ”

The county lieutenant slapped his thigh in a hurry.

Baili Xi said indifferently: "There are only more than 1,000 people in Fang County, plus the soldiers of all ethnic groups, there are no more than 2,000 people, and these 2,000 people have no chance of winning in front of 50,000 Hu cavalry, how can they support?" ”

"So we're just here and watching?"

The county lieutenant was a little confused.

"No, let's wait here for the reinforcements to arrive, since the lord is luring the Hu people, then there must be reinforcements, and when the time comes, we will attack with the reinforcements!"

"Wouldn't we have no credit then?"

In the final analysis, the county lieutenant of Fang County wants to make a great contribution to be promoted and make a fortune.

"Nonsense!"

Baili scolded: "What can two thousand old and weak do to help Han Gong?" Maybe let the Hu people hold a grudge and lead troops to attack, where do you put the 100,000 people in Fang County? ”

The county lieutenant sweated profusely, bowed down and bowed: "Guilty, guilty!" ”

Baili Xi threw his sleeves away, Meng Mingshi hurriedly helped up the county lieutenant and comforted: "Father has a violent temper, I hope the county lieutenant will not blame!" ”

The county lieutenant shook his head and said: "Lord Baili is an elder in the county, how can I blame him, besides, what the lord said is that I am too utilitarian, and I am a little tired, so this city will be handed over to you!" ”

Meng Mingshi arched his hand and said, "Please rest assured!" ”

……

Liu De has been guarding the hillside for four days, the strength of the Hu people is getting bigger and bigger, and even a few times he was broken up by the Hu people, but fortunately, Yang Qilang and other generals were brave and quickly drove the Hu people down, so they held the mountain.

And Liu De's chess skills have also increased a lot, at least it is not so obvious that Zuna does not have to think hard about how to lose.

"Lord, according to the time, the generals should have arrived at the Hu people!"

Xu Shu said to Liu De, who was looking up at the starry sky.

"Mr. Xu, it's a little gloomy today, I'm afraid it's going to rain again."

Liu De didn't care about the battle, but talked to Xu Shu about the weather conditions.

Xu Shu said: "Spring is already rainy, and it is normal to have rain, and it is a whole day, endlessly, but if it rains, it will be easier for our defense." ”

"That's right, and if it rains, it will also cover the gathering of soldiers, and it will not be easy to be discovered by the Hu people, and the Hu people will be caught off guard!"

Liu De made a chopping gesture with his palm down, obviously with the cover of Chunyu, the winning rate of this counter-encirclement has increased a little.

"I just hope that the generals will not miss the fighters, so that the Hu people will find out about the abnormal movement!"

In fact, Liu De still has deep worries in his heart, but he didn't show it in front of everyone.

"All the generals are famous generals in the world, and obviously they will not miss the fighters."

Xu Shu comforted Liu De.

At this time, the Hu people still surrounded Fang Yushan tightly, and because of the disappearance of his clansmen, a tribal leader came straight to Fang County with 2,000 people from his headquarters.

This tribal leader originally sent his Hu people to Fang County to investigate, but now his subordinates are missing. Don't think about it, it must be Fang County's hand.

On the one hand, the tribal leader wanted to avenge his subordinates, and on the other hand, it was too boring to stay at the foot of the mountain, and the leader wanted to indulge very much, and the nearest Fang County was the best place.

After the tribal leader reported to King Ott, King Otter did not care, it was just a small county town, and he could get more slave property by capturing this county town, only 2,000 soldiers and horses, which was not hindered to the overall situation, so he approved the chief's request.

When the leader came to the city of Fangxian and saw the low city wall, he immediately laughed loudly, obviously thinking that this city was very easy to capture, and then ordered the Hu people to start cutting wood and building a long ladder for attacking the city.

The Hu people originally did not know how to build siege equipment, but with the continuous plunder, many craftsmen were plundered back by the Hu people, which allowed the Hu people to learn the technology of making long ladders, of course, more complex ladders and siege vehicles.

"Patriarch, there are no trees in this vicinity, they have all been cut down, and only the stumps remain."

A Hu man hurried over and said to the leader.

The leader said angrily: "Then look for it in the distance, I don't believe that there is not a forest around here!" Fuck off, hurry up and give it to Lao Tzu! ”

In the angry scolding of the leader, Hu Ren quickly lowered his head and left.

Baili Xi and other officials in the city also stood at the head of the city, looking at the Hu people who were a little at a loss, the county lieutenant laughed and said: "It's still Baili who is clever, and he cut down the woods outside the city early, so that the Hu people can't build siege equipment at all." ”

The rest of the officials also praised Baili Xi one after another.

Baili Xi didn't have a happy expression on his face, but said to everyone: "It's just that the woods outside have been cleared, as long as the Hu people are patient, they will soon be able to build siege equipment, we must be united, if the Hu people break the city, your parents, wives and children will be subjected to the wanton humiliation of the Hu people, are you willing?" ”

"We don't want to!"

All the soldiers raised their swords and shouted in unison, obviously knowing what a tragic situation it would be if the Hu people broke the city.

Baili Xi said to the county lieutenant and his son Meng Mingshi: "You two are here to stick to the city, the Hu people are only 2,000 people, and they are dismounted and fighting on foot, don't be afraid, go all out, don't live up to the instructions of the fathers in the city." ”

The county lieutenant and Meng Mingshi bowed their hands and said: "Take the order under {child}!" ”

Baili Xi nodded, went down to the city to mobilize the people in the city, organized logistics, and recruited young people.

The importance of this rear is sometimes more important than that of the front front.

When it got dark, the long ladder could not be built, and although the leader of the Hu people angrily whipped a few soldiers, he had no choice but to order his soldiers to camp and prepare to attack the city tomorrow.

At dawn on the second day, the Hu people began to attack Fang County under the reprimand of the leader, and King Otter at the foot of Fangyu Mountain could vaguely hear the shouting of killing, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, so he no longer paid attention to it.

The Hu people set up a simple ladder and shouted and pounced on the city, and the sparse arrows on the city could not stop the momentum of the Hu people, which made the Hu people even more rampant.

But then the rolling stones and the sassal wood directly smashed the Hu people under the city.

The leader of the Hu people rode on a tall horse, and with the sword in his hand, he pressed the whole army up, not noticing the situation behind him.

He probably didn't expect that so many soldiers and horses would suddenly pour out behind him.

"Huh!"

A dazzling blue light swept through, and the head of the leader of the Hu people fell, and his strong body was still sitting straight on the war horse, which was terrifying.

Guan Yu put away the Qinglong Knife, and a trace of blood slowly slid down with the sharp blade.

Under the leadership of Zhang Fei, Huang Zhong, Zhou Cang, and Liao Hua, the 10,000 soldiers and horses led by Guan Yu were divided into four ways to surround the two thousand Hu people.

"Is that reinforcements?"

The county lieutenant at the head of the city muttered to himself.

Meng Mingshi slapped the head of the city with his palm, and shouted: "Follow me down to the city and help the reinforcements exterminate the Hu people!" ”

The city gate was opened, Meng Mingshi directly led a thousand soldiers to kill from the city, under the encirclement and suppression of both sides, it didn't take a moment for none of the two thousand Hu people to escape.

"Haha!"

Zhang Fei led several war horses over and said to Guan Yu: "Dudu, there are many war horses in this Hu people, and there are nearly 4,000 war horses in just 2,000 people, and now our army also has war horses, and we can form a cavalry army!" ”

The Hu people dismounted to attack the city, and all the war horses were encircled in one place, so Zhang Feici was able to capture such a number of war horses so easily.

As in the previous wars, after a battle, in fact, the loss of war horses was also quite heavy, such as the battle of Bai Qi in Mayi, the captured war horses were only thousands, but the Hu people brought nearly 50,000 war horses!

"Just 4,000 war horses make you so happy, there are nearly 100,000 war horses at the foot of the mountain!"

Guan Yu stroked his long hair, and looked at the strong war horses and said happily.

"That's not necessarily all ours, let's talk about how much we get first!"

Zhang Fei is very content.

"Governor, the county commander and county lieutenant in the city want to ask to see the governor!"

Guan Yu nodded and said, "This city guard official is quite heroic, let them come over!" ”

"Fang County ordered Baili Xi to meet the governor."

"Wang Peng, the county lieutenant of Fangxian County, visited the governor of Guandu!"

"Fang County soldier Cao Peng Baili to see the governor!"

Baili Xi, Wang Peng, and Meng Mingshi said to Guan Yu.

Guan Yu is the general of Wupin Anyuan, and he is higher in rank than the Qipin County Ling Baili Xi, although he has no right of jurisdiction, but the lower officials should cān bài when they see the upper officials.

Guan Yu bowed slightly, but he respected Baili Xi's age.

"Boss, please get up!"

Although Guan Yu is arrogant and a scholar, he is more contemptuous of those who are immoral and incompetent in the fish and meat country.

As for the quite capable scholars, Guan Yu is not so cold-eyed.

Guan Yu said to Baili Xi: "Please ask the county order to send someone to clean up the corpses outside the city, if it rains today, there are many maggots, and it is easy to produce plague, I will also lead the soldiers to retreat and camp." ”

"Dare to ask the governor, are you waiting for reinforcements to surround the Hu people at the foot of the mountain?" Baili Xi asked.

"The old man is insightful, exactly."

Guan Yu said, his eyes narrowed slightly, obviously it was a little strange for the county order to guess his movements.

It seems that this old man is not an ordinary county order.

Baili Xi said to Guan Yu: "Governor, there are still 1,500 soldiers in Fang County, and 3,000 young and strong people, who can help the general!" The old man has been in this county for many years, and the weather changes have long been familiar with him, there will be rain tonight, and it will last at least one day and one night, the general can take advantage of this to attack the Hu people, and the Hu people will not be defended! ”

"Good! As the boss said, Guan remembered that when he contacted other generals, he wanted to attack the Hu people as soon as possible to relieve the danger of the lord! Guan Yu said solemnly to Baili Xi.

Relying on Guan Yu's army alone is definitely not enough, Liu De wants to completely wipe out these 50,000 horses, and with Guan Yu's words alone, it is easy for Hu Ren to lead the army to escape, which is not in line with Liu De's original intention.

"Please also ask the governor as soon as possible, this Hu people have been wiped out, the Hu people will definitely not know in a short time, but after a long time, they will definitely be suspicious, that will attract more Hu people to come, but it will be exposed!" Baili Xi added here.

Guan Yu nodded, and said to Baili Xi: "The boss can order the young people in the city to scream day and night, and make a large-scale siege of the city, General Hu must not be suspicious, so it can be delayed for two days." ”

"What the Governor said is very true!"

"In this case, these 1,500 soldiers and 3,000 young men will stay in the city for the time being, and when the time comes, they will attack the Hu people with our army!"

After Guan Yu finally finished speaking, he led the generals to retreat thirty miles back and set up camp, and quickly sent people to contact the rest of the generals.

Towards evening, sure enough, a light rain began to fall in the sky, which made the momentum of the Hu people set, and Hano saw that the ground was slippery, so he ordered the attack to be stopped and ordered the soldiers to rest.

It was raining continuously, so that the Hu people were not comfortable, and no one was in the mood to go out of the tent to play, more cats were in the tent, drinking spirits, hugging the snatched Da Zhou women, reckless carnival, and even Liu De, who was halfway up the mountain, could hear the shouts of the Hu people.

Liu De scolded, but he was helpless, so he could only wait patiently on the mountain.

"Zuna, come here, play a game of chess with my father!"

......

Guan Yu, as the largest official position other than Bai Qi, was also appointed by Liu De as the temporary commander of the whole army.

At this time, Bai Qi led his 5,000 cavalry troops {including 1,500 Baima Yicong} also arrived on the north side of Fang Yu Mountain, and had already contacted Yu Ban, who led the Guangping Army, but Guan Yu and other generals were basically on the south side of Fang Yu Mountain, so they didn't know.

This is the biggest flaw that Liu Dejun faces, the communication is not smooth, if the encirclement is not successful, it is easy to cause defeat, let the Hu people escape, or defeat Liu Dejun one by one.

But the arrow has to be fired, and the longer it takes, the greater the risk of being discovered.

Guan Yu didn't have time to contact Yu Ban, he only hoped that Yu Ban had arrived at the agreed place at this time, and he could block the way for the Hu people to go north.

Guan Yu ordered Qin Qiong, Pei Shuye, Qi Jing, and Sun Chongjin to lead the soldiers and horses of the headquarters to defend the south of Fangyu Mountain, Guan Yu also left the county soldiers and Qingzhuang led by Meng Mingshi to them, Li Dian, Zhao Yun, and Huo Jun took advantage of the night and heavy rain to go to the east of Fangyu Mountain.

If the Hu people fled, the probability of going west and north is high, and the probability of going east and south is small, who called the grassland in the northwest direction!

But he also had to prevent the Hu people from running around in a panic, and the most important thing was to completely surround the Hu people.

Guan Yu personally led 10,000 soldiers and horses from his headquarters to the west.
