Chapter 19: The Nameless River
Wu Ming coughed.
The generals had no choice but to hold back their expressions and make serious statements.
Everyone else was about to hold back their laughter and suffocate their internal injuries, but Gu Weidong didn't feel funny at all. He really didn't know that Jin Jun's strength was to hurt people with hidden arrows---- to be honest, even Jin Jun himself didn't know this. But whether you know it or not, this is not a joke, even if he is in the middle of the guards, there is no guarantee that the arrow will not hit him, it seems that it is better not to go to the battlefield, not to mention that Uncle Wu loves himself so much, and also hints that if he has a good rest, he will be useful in the future, it seems that it will not be a loss of identity such as going to the battlefield to command operations, what is it? He didn't know either, but it wasn't a bad thing anyway.
"Uncle Wu, you are so good!" Gu Weidong said from the bottom of his heart.
Gu Weidong went back to the tent to rest, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Wu Ming's voice was the loudest.
Wu Ming's expression became serious. Now that Gu Dagongzi is not present, he has to say something serious.
"The Jin army that came first seems to have some way," he said slowly, "this general's command ability is definitely not ordinary!" β
Wei Qing secretly cheered in his heart.
That's the real level! can judge the ability of the opposing generals from the Jin army's formation, so far, except for Wei Qing, that is, this General Wu.
Wu Ming naturally didn't know Wei Qing's thoughts, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care, what he cared about was whether the emperor applauded him, and now, what he cared about was Jin Jun's intentions.
He pondered for a moment and said to Wei Qing: "Wei Guji, when do you think the Jin army will attack?" β
Wei Qing was silent.
It's not that he can't judge, but he has discovered a problem: this General Wu now seems to only want to study the enemy situation with himself, and treat others as nothing! Although Wei Qing is still very immature in terms of human sophistication, he also knows what to do in this situation now.
"The last general thinks that the Jin army will attack within an hour!" Ma Chao couldn't help but speak.
"The Jin Army will not attack tonight." Bai Buxin said.
"Why?" Ma Chaojian raised his eyebrows, "They are now outnumbered, do they have to wait until dawn to see clearly before fighting?" β
Bai Buxin kept his mouth shut.
It's not that he can't refute, but he doesn't like to argue.
"You mean!" Ma Chao is this anxious son, seeing that Bai can't believe it, his voice has become louder.
Wu Ming smiled and asked Wei Qing: "Now there are two propositions, who do you support?" β
Wei Qing can't help but express his position, because it is impossible to say "I don't know" on this question. β
"I don't believe it in vain." Wei Qing said.
"Why?" Ma Chao likes to say these three words today.
"Because the general of the Jin army is too capable." Wei Qing's answer was very peculiar.
"Well said!" Wu Ming slapped his face lightly, "It coincides with my thoughts!" β
Ma Chao's sweat came down. He really couldn't understand this. He felt as if he had entered the Shaolin Temple, and several monks were playing dumb riddles.
Liu Anbang cleared his throat: "The last general doesn't quite understand, can you ask General Wu to explain?" β
Liu Anbang really doesn't understand, but he doesn't have to figure it out, but hopes to make the generals of the second left team understand, such as Ma Chao. At the very least, it's an opportunity to get on good terms with the second team from the left. You must know that the left third team is now less than 3,000 people, and the main force of the entire battalion is the second left team.
Wu Ming didn't answer, but just shouted: "Wei Guerrilla!" β
Wei Qing agreed, and said to Liu Anbang: "General Liu, there are three parts of the enemy army, one is just defeated by us, this part of the people to regroup, and then reorganized, it is by no means an hour to complete, the second part is the Jin army with a strict lineup, and the third part has just arrived, not only is not familiar with the battlefield situation, but also unfamiliar with the layout of the previous team of Jin army, which can be seen from the fact that they want to be guided into the battle by the previous team of Jin army. Now the generals of the Jin Army are not familiar with us, especially when we have just defeated the Jin Army, at this time a good general will first interrogate the troops who have fought with us, ask us about the situation, so as to know the other, this is not a matter of three words can be ended, it also takes time, and it takes time to integrate the three parts of the Jin Army. Since they already have the upper hand, and our rescuers will not be able to arrive for a while, why should he risk attacking when the enemy is already unorganized and unfamiliar? If it was a reckless general, he might have attacked directly, but because this Jin army general was extremely capable, he would not attack tonight. β
Wei Qing's explanation seemed to be explained to Liu Anbang by Wu Ming's order on the surface, but it was obvious that he was actually explaining to Ma Chao. In Wei Qing's words, this can be seen from the sentence "It can never be completed in one hour" to answer whose question it is.
Wu Ming smiled.
He found that Wei Qing was there, and he saved a lot of things.
"Order, plant more torches, except for the sentries, all rest, and prepare for battle tomorrow morning!" Wu Ming's order was concise and forceful. Plant more torches to confuse the enemy, rest all, and tomorrow's combat effectiveness is guaranteed.
"General Wu!" Wei Qing shouted.
"What's the matter?"
"How are you going to deal with the enemy tomorrow?" Although this question was asked by Wei Qing, it was something that all the generals wanted to know.
Wu Ming's answer made everyone's jaws drop: "I don't know!" Wu Ming said, "Now that the enemy is strong and I am weak, it is difficult for the rescuers to arrive in time, so we can only fight to the death!" β
"If you have a little idea, please decide on it!" Wei Qing said.
A hint of surprise appeared on Wu Ming's face.
He also admired Wei Qing's ability in his heart, but in this situation, is there any strange plan that can reverse the situation?
The answer is: Yes, of course. It's just that it's not him Wu Mingyou, but Wei Qingyou.
This is called the gap. Chess is high and crushes people to death with one move.
"I think that first, we must send someone to order the fourth and fifth teams on the left to join together, originally we advanced in five ways, and the front was well guarded, but now the one, two, and three teams have been combined into one team, and this front has been broken, so let the four and five teams also be together, in case they are alone and surrounded by divisionsγγγγγγγ"
"Herald!" Wu Ming didn't wait for Wei Qing to finish speaking, he had already shouted, "Quickly get out of the camp, go and tell the left 5th team to move closer to the left 4th team, and the left 4th team will be under the command!" Wu Ming slapped himself several times in his heart while giving the order. He didn't expect such a major problem! He, the commander-in-chief of the Left Route Army, is really a wine bag and a rice bag!
After giving the order, Wu Ming looked at Wei Qing again: "What is the second?" β
"Second, I think that fighting to the death is not a way, the Jin army is outnumbered, and the soldiers are full of food, and we can't stop it."
"So do you mean retreat?" Wu Ming immediately asked.
"It's not. If we retreat, the entire left side will be empty, we can't retreat, we can't defend to the death, we can only win! β
"Nonsense!" Wu Ming choked Wei Qing again, "How do you say you can win?" β
Wei Qing had to admit that he did say a nonsense just now, this is not to blame Wu Ming, it is to blame that his thinking is too jumpy, and he said that he would win before he could say his plan.
"Humble position, please give the general three hundred elite soldiers to the humble position, in order to defeat the enemy!"
"What? How many people? Wu Ming's eyes widened.
"Three hundred! Couldn't be less! β
"You win with three hundred? It's true? "Don't say that what Wu Ming said is also nonsense, you don't believe it either, I'm afraid that it will be more verbose than Wu Ming.
"We can only use three hundred people, because I know that there are only three hundred sets of Jin army uniforms in our big camp now."
Half an hour later, Wei Qing left the camp with three hundred people.
The Han army camp was brightly lit and the drums were constantly beating, but there were few figures.
The torches were all false, no one was under the torches, and the drums were buried under the hooves of a dozen horses. Except for the sentinels, everyone else went to sleep in order to recuperate and prepare for tomorrow's bloody battle.
Only Wei Qing and three hundred warriors quietly came out of the camp from behind the camp. Under the cover of night, they quietly slipped away in the opposite direction of the Jin army.
So we can know that they are not going to attack at night, unless they are going to circle the Earth.
Wei Qing was the commander-in-chief in the middle of the team, Bai Buxin in the front team, Ma Chao in the middle team, and Li Guang in the back team. If you say it from the commander's point of view, this is an unconventional unit. One of the generals and both of them served as centurions. Of course, their commander is the guerrilla Wei Qing, and the official official position is the commander of the army.
It was not very difficult to get Wu Ming to agree to this plan, but Liu Anbang was very opposed, and found at least twelve reasons, what is too dangerous for this plan, it is too late for time, there are too many variables in the middle, etc., Balabala said a lot, and in the end Wu Ming was also annoyed, and let Liu Anbang shut up with an angry shout.
But Wei Qing knew that it was not that Liu Anbang did not agree with this plan, but that Liu Anbang did not agree with Wei Qing to lead the team.
This plan is indeed dangerous enough, so Liu Anbang doesn't want Wei Qing to go. The problem is that this plan was proposed by Wei Qing, and with other people, there is really no way to reassure people, at least Wei Qing has a greater chance of success in this plan.
It was precisely in order to make the success of this bold plan even more likely that Wei Qing proposed to transfer several high-level generals to be the commander of each hundred-man team. As a result, one general and both were temporarily demoted. But the three demoted people were all elated, because they knew that with Wei Qing, the possibility of success was definitely more than an order of magnitude greater than that of following Gu Weidong.
Three hundred men marched forward in the darkness of the night, and they did not run quickly, for the journey was not a short one, and they carried with them a few heavy things; But I didn't walk slowly, because the distance was not short, so if I walked too slowly, it would be too late.
Without saying a word all the way, they finally came to a river. It is a nameless river that is not marked on the map. The river is not wide, but the current is very fast, and there is hardly a gentle flow along the way. If you weren't a local, there weren't many people who knew where the river leads.
