Chapter 281: The cavalry of the Qin army fled at night

Ju Nan gritted his teeth: "Grandma, these Daoyi really want to fight us!" General Shao, let's quickly inform Peng Shuai, let him quickly move closer to us, join forces together, and fight with the Jin army here! ”

Suddenly, a rush of footsteps sounded from outside, and he frowned, and said sharply: "Bastard, there is a military discussion here, don't you see!" ”

A scout with a flag on his back ran up and knelt down on one knee: "General, about a hundred miles to the south, there is a large group of enemy cavalry rapidly approaching our army, look at the firelight, there are at least five or six thousand cavalry, it will only be about two hours away from us, please make a quick decision!" ”

Kuan's eyes widened, and he couldn't speak for a long time, and after a long time, he shouted: "What?!" Five or six thousand rides? How is this possible! ”

Shao Bao gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Deputy Marshal, it seems that the Jin Kingdom has been concealing its strength, they can eat General Du in one bite, and it is not surprising that there are thousands of cavalry, probably they are taking advantage of the victory to pursue and want to attack us directly!" ”

It was difficult to punch on the handsome case, so that the wooden box full of arrows jumped twice, his eyes widened, and he said sharply: "The Jin army is too deceitful, I don't believe it, our Great Qin Iron Cavalry will be afraid of his thousands of men and horses!" Order, the whole army assembles, arrays, and fights with me! ”

Shao Bao hurriedly said: "Deputy marshal, don't do it." It's dark now, we don't know the reality of the enemy's army, and the front army has been annihilated, and the army's morale is already unstable. ”

It was like pouring a basin of cold water on it, and it took a long time before he sighed: "You're right, in the art of war, the risk of forcible attack is too great now." So what do we do now? ”

Shao Bao's brows furrowed: "The only plan for today is that it is better to fight here with open fire, full of suspicious soldiers, while our army quickly retreats to the north and joins the main force of General Peng, the Jin army occupies an empty camp of us at most, we are cavalry, we don't have too much grain and grass, and we won't leave anything for the enemy!" ”

Ji Nan's face changed: "What, do you want me to run away without a fight?" General Shao, how can you raise the morale of the enemy army so much and destroy our prestige? ”

Shao Bao gritted his teeth: "For the general, you need to know how to advance and retreat, now the battle situation is extremely unfavorable to our army, it is likely to fail to fight, surrender is the best policy, the five or six thousand cavalry of the Jin army is only the vanguard force, it is difficult to say how many are behind, in case our army sticks to the enemy cavalry in the dark night, and the enemy brigade infantry arrives behind, and then you can't leave if you want to!" ”

Sweat began to break out on his forehead, and he muttered, "Can't we rely on this camp to defend it?" ”

Shao Bao sighed: "Deputy Marshal, we are cavalry, this temporary camp has no good protection at all, we only have some simple fences, camp tents, and even arrow towers and guard towers. But General Duyan's 5,000 cavalry didn't even last two hours, and our 10,000 people just went to war, how long can we last?! ”

Ju Nan sighed, sat back on the handsome chair dejectedly, closed his eyes, and shook his head: "I led the cavalry of my headquarters to fight without authorization, and I wanted to make meritorious contributions and live above Peng Chao, but now that I am like this, I have to turn around and defect to others, how can I hold my head up in the future?!" ”

Shao Bao hooked the corners of his mouth, took a step forward, and said in a low voice: "Deputy marshal, you can't be rash at this time, the strong enemy is current, menacing, I'm afraid the entire plan to attack Huainan will be changed, we can bring this army back safely, and it is fortunate to hold Pengcheng, go back first, Peng Tingshi is there, I will help you speak, even in front of the king of heaven, I will also say that it is Du Yan himself who carelessly fell into the ambush, and our choice of shrinking and getting closer to the main force will not be a problem." ”

Ju Nan gritted his teeth and stood up, ten thousand reluctance was written on his face, but he still said in a deep voice: "Order, quickly assemble, the camp is full of open flames, and the straw man is placed behind the fence, bluffing, and the army is withdrawn from the rear camp gate in three ways, and quickly moves closer to Pengcheng!" ”

As he spoke, he walked out of the tent, walked a few steps, suddenly thought of something, turned his head and smiled at Shao Bao: "General Shao, the two thousand men and horses under your command are the elite of our cavalry, so I will trouble you to break the back." ”

Two hours later, Liu Yu stood in the handsome tent of the difficulty, the smell of sheep on those Hu people still remained here, and his side was full of happy brothers, Tan Yizhi sat on the handsome chair left by the difficulty, and laughed: "Presumably this is the chair that the difficult one sat on, grandma's, or warm." ”

Wei Yongzhi's three rabbit lips moved: "These barbarians ran very fast, in two hours, the battalion of more than 10,000 people was withdrawn, and those sergeants were also unlucky, they didn't even get a good night's sleep, so they had to get up and run away at night." ”

He Wuji smiled and shook his head: "But when they left, they knew that peeing had extinguished those fires, and even if they left, they would disgust us, Jinu, this camp is now full of the smell of these urine, it stinks, should we change places?" ”

Xiang Jing hooked the corners of his mouth: "Brother Jinu, don't the Hu people have food to fight in the war?" Why did we go into the camp and have no food or grass? Could it be that they can flee in such a hurry with their baggage? ”

Liu Yu said with a smile: "These Hu cavalry are very mobile, unlike our Central Plains infantry, which has to use heavy wagons to transport grain, grass and ordnance in battle, and their cavalry often brings five to ten days of dry food, mainly dried meat, and goes out two or three hundred miles, while cattle, sheep and grain and grass are in the rear camp. Listening to what those prisoners said, the logistics general of the Qin army was named Shao Bao, and this time he acted with Ju Nan, the grain and grass were stored in the rear, and the troops in the front were only in charge of fighting, so this time they lost this advance camp, as long as they withdrew their troops, they did not need to withdraw food. ”

He Wuji nodded: "In fact, our army is also like this, the grain road is life for the army, and the place where the grain is stored is often hundreds of miles away from the front, and the people who need to transport grain to the front camp every day." It's just that this time we went all the way out and scared off the Qin army, and we didn't have to think about the grain and grass in the rear. ”

Speaking of this, He Wuji looked at Liu Yu: "Jinu, we have fought here from Guangling, and we have already been more than 200 miles away, a little far from the camp, and now we have successfully scared off the enemy army, or we will be stationed here to wait for backup, how about it?" ”

Liu Yu shook his head, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes: "No, now we can't stay, continue to advance, continue to attack, believe me, if you drive the enemy all the way like this, they will become more and more frightened, Xuan Shuai and General Liu will definitely know my intentions, reinforcements and supplies are ahead!" ”
