"Report.? 。。 Checkmate. The Jin soldiers and the Chu army have already fought. A spy reported.

He stepped on his horse's pedal and craned his head to look ahead. Although this place is not far from the place where Jin and Chu exchanged troops, the road is crooked, and there are woods to cover it, only the war drums are heard, but not even a single Chu army can be seen. In front of everyone's eyes, the action of pulling and stabbing was extremely abrupt, but not only was he completely unaware, but after shaking his head and pretending to groan for a while, he seemed to think of something, and suggested with a smile: "Brother Cui, should we rush up and fight now?" ”

This thorn is the son of a large tribal chief in the Khitan, oily noodles, usually hobbies hunting and drinking, in addition, he has studied Sinology for a few days, the Central Plains dialect is quite standard, and he can also recite two Tang poems, and he can be regarded as a cultural person. Therefore, it is deeply valued by the light of Jerod. Even if he went to the battlefield, he either stayed in the rear army or stayed by Yelu Deguang's side, rarely experienced real battlefield battles, and did not have any military literacy.

Cui Tingxun saw that he didn't ask anything clearly, so he wanted to go up and charge, he looked down on this kind of noble son in his heart, Yelu Deguang sent him to the Weisheng Jiedu Embassy to "fight the grass valley", it is estimated that there is a ** out of ten is also thinking of the reason why the strength of the Weisheng army is weak and easy to deal with.

Cui Tingxun coughed and said with a smile: "General Drag, your courage to kill the enemy is admired very much, but let's first ask how this Gao Xinggui is fighting, if it doesn't work, let's go out again, in order to show the majesty of our Khitans." Cui Tingxun's words were very tactful, but the meaning was clear, he just wanted to clarify the situation of the battle between the Jin army and the Chu army first.

Seeing that the thorn nodded, Cui Tingxun turned his head to look at the spy and asked, "How is the battle between the Jin soldiers and the Chu army in front?" “

"Tell me quickly, if there are any signs of defeat for the Jin army." Dragging asked impatiently.

"General Bing, the Jin army and the Chu army in front of you are fighting together, and the fight is inseparable, and you can't tell who wins and who loses for a while." The spies returned.

Tu Thorn reached out and touched his beard, and said with a smile: "Hey, this Chu army is too watery, it's been so long, and the Jin army hasn't been defeated yet." With this strength, they dare to say the Northern Expedition? It's really a toad yawning, and I don't know how thick the sky is. The little ant stretches out its legs and wants to trip over the elephant, and does not look at its own small thin legs. This... ”

"Good!" Seeing that the witticism of the thorn was one sentence after another, Cui Tingxun couldn't stand it a little, and he shouted hello and praised: "The general of the thorn is really well-informed and intelligent." This, let me ask you again, how many people are there in this Chu army? ”

The spy said: "The Chu army is in the Chen phalanx, and it has been surrounded by the Jin army, and it seems that it is only about 5ooo people. ”

"What?" Cui Tingxun couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, and then looked at the thorns, and said happily with the thorns, his mouth was half open, but he was speechless: The Jin soldiers under the Weisheng Jiedu are indeed not strong, but they have an absolute advantage in the number of people, 30,000 people fight 5,000, and it is difficult to distinguish between the killings, and this Chu army does not seem to be so easy to deal with.

The thorn couldn't be dragged up, swallowed his saliva and stopped talking, Cui Tingxun continued to ask: "Do you know where the main force of the Chu army is now?" ”

"There was a gap of 1o miles between the main forces of the Chu army and their front army." The spy replied.

"Brother Cui, look, what should we do now?" I heard that Chu Jun was not a soft persimmon, so he quickly saw the wind and steered, and carefully inquired about Cui Tingxun's idea.

Cui Tingxun squinted at the thorn, and said in his heart: You are just this good, you are reasonable, you know how many catties you have, unlike some young aristocrats of the Khitan, who don't know how thick the sky is. Cui Tingxun said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, the front of the Chu army is surrounded, and the main force of the Chu army will never ignore it, they will inevitably speed up their pace and come over for reinforcements." In this way, their team will be very long, dragging the stabbing general, it is better for us to go around like this, directly attack the middle of the main force of the Chu army, cut them off, and let them see our Khitan cavalry. ”

Tuthorn was a little vague in his heart, and when he saw Cui Tingxun being so lightly introduced, he couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Brother Cui, the enemy is strong, let's attack rashly, I'm afraid it's not good." It's better to report the situation here to Your Majesty, and ask him to send reinforcements. ”

Cui Tingxun laughed: "It's natural to drag the stabbing general and send someone for help, but our army has already been dispatched, so we retreated in a gray way, and our prestige was broken in vain." Besides, the Chu army is new and its morale is booming, if you don't give them a dismount, how can you deter the surrounding states and counties. As soon as we retreat today, the surrounding Tangzhou, Shenzhou, Suizhou and other places may surrender without a fight, so this battle is settled. Drag the stabbing general, our Khitan cavalry swept the world, there are few opponents, and their Chu army and horse army are few, even if we can't resist, isn't it easy to ride on a horse and escape? “

He hesitated for a long time, rolled his eyes, and said ruthlessly: "Okay, General Cui is really my Khitan general, and I wish General Cui a victory here." General Cui, please march, I will go back to Dengzhou City first, and prepare a banquet for you. ”

Cui Tingxun almost didn't fall off the horse, and he persuaded him for a long time, and said in vain, this kid, just now I thought that Chu Jun was a soft egg, and his little face was red with excitement, and he couldn't wait to kill him immediately, but now that he heard that Chu Jun was very powerful, his face immediately turned pale, and he didn't even dare to go to the battlefield.

The thorns are the Khitan people who are red-rooted, and their status is there. Cui Tingxun had no choice but to secretly despise this little Khitan soft egg, but said: "That's fine, drag the stabbing general, you can please." The last will come when he goes. Saying that, he left 1oo pro-army to maintain and drag back to Dengzhou, and he led the army back to the side of the road that the Chu army must pass for rescue, waiting for a while to give the Chu army an unexpected surprise.

----

The news of Ni Kefu's encounter with the Jin soldiers soon reached Ma Yun's hands, and after figuring out that Ni Kefu was only a Jin soldier, Ma Yun immediately sent Liu Yantao to lead the troops to the rescue, and he was handsome and stationed in the army temporarily, he thoughtfully asked Li Xiang who was following him: "Mr. Li, what do you think the Khitans are doing at this time?" ”

Li Xiang fanned his goose feathers and smiled indifferently: "They must be attacking our army on the flank while our army is rescued." The Khitan army is all horse army, and it moves quickly, and there is really no other good way to deal with the Khitan army except to form a phalanx and take advantage of the combination of our different arms. It was even more disadvantageous to deal with cavalry in the course of a rapid march. However, at the moment, it has not reached such a bad level, first, we have a geographical advantage, we are relying on the White River, and the possibility of the Khitans crossing the river to attack is zero, so we can only use the defense side. Second, we have a lot of soldiers, few Khitan soldiers, and the strength of the Jin army is weak. My main force has stopped for a while, and the Khitans may not be able to figure out our intentions, and after General Liu Yantao leads his troops to support General Ni Kefu safely, the 15ooo Chu army is enough to deal with the 3oooo Jin army. “

Ma Yun pondered for a moment and said, "It's not a good way for our main force to stay in this place all the time." It's best that our main force can also go up, so that if we fight more and fight less, the Jin army will be defeated and retreat, and won't the Khitans be unable to support it? ”

"King, wait for General Liu Yantao to go first for a while, and then our army will maintain the formation, slowly follow, and don't give the Khitans a chance, the Khitans attack General Liu, and we will cover the past, and attack from inside and outside, if we attack us, we can just wait for the battle."

Ma Yun nodded and said, "Well, it's a good strategy." That's all it takes. ”

---

Liu Yantao's movements were soon detected by Cui Tingxun. He hurriedly ordered the army to prepare for the attack, but after waiting for a while, he realized that this was only a part of the Chu army. The main force of the Chu army is still resting 1o miles away.

Cui Tingxun is not a fool, he immediately understood that this Chu army does not see rabbits and does not scatter eagles. They're waiting for their cavalry. If it weren't for the strength of the Jin soldiers being too weak, presumably the Chu army would not be so calm. However, does your Chu army really have a way to deal with my cavalry? Cui Tingxun smiled coldly at the corner of his mouth, and ordered: "Attention to the army, go straight to the main force of the Chu army!" ”

----

Not long after Liu Yantao left, Ma Yun led the remaining 3oooo army and slowly moved in the direction of Ni Kefu's army. Just walked a mile of the way, I heard the sound of horses' hooves from the east, turned my head to look, the wasteland in the east was dusty, thousands of horses rushed straight over, fluttering black Khitan battle flags, and a huge "Cui" word flag.

Ma Yun and Li Xiang couldn't help but glance at each other, and had some respect for this Cui Tingxun in their hearts, this person was not confused by the Chu army's strategy of dividing troops to attack, and insisted that Qingshan would not relax, and directly led the army to pounce on the main force of the Chu army.

As soon as Ma Yun waved his hand, the "dong dong" war drum sounded, the formation of the Chu army was not chaotic, and the sergeants shouted loudly, and for a while the sound of the horse's hooves was overshadowed.

As the distance approached, the bow and arrow took on the striker. The Khitans are worthy of being skilled in bows and horses, fast arrows like rain, and they are extremely lethal to the Chu army. The center of the Chu army slowly retreated backwards, originally a square town, but with the gradual retreat of the Chu army, it slowly evolved into a crescent moon shape. After all, the two-legged one was no faster than the four-legged one, and the distance between the two armies was getting closer and closer, and the Khitans rushed into the Chu army in an instant. After coming in, the Chu army was not panicked, seven or eight people were grouped, two or three took shields to deal with the cavalry's sprint and trampling, two people held horse sabers, specifically cutting horse legs, and two people held spears and fought with the knights on horses.

Cui Tingxun was overjoyed when he watched the Chu army retreat, and only after he rushed into the Chu army did he feel strangely uncomfortable, the Chu army was different from the Jin army. The Jin army fought against the Khitans, mostly using infantry as cannon fodder to consume the Khitan's physical strength, and finally used cavalry to charge on both sides. And the Chu army didn't have any cavalry, so Cui Tingxun rushed in with confidence and interest.

But after rushing in, the Chu army inside can be described in four words: rout but not chaos. It seems that the formation was broken up by the Khitan soldiers, but the Chu army was a combination of seven or eight people, and the Khitan soldiers and horses were entangled together. At the beginning, there were many Khitan soldiers and horses, and it was difficult for these people to take care of the left and right, but as the Khitan soldiers and horses rushed deeper and deeper, the power of the strange formation of seven or eight people in the Chu army was gradually waved out. The cavalrymen set up their spears, but they could not stop those who cut the legs of the horses, and they killed those who cut the legs of the horses, but there was an extra hole in their bodies.

Seeing that there were more and more injured Khitan soldiers, Cui Tingxun had no choice but to shout: "Retreat, retreat quickly." "I regret it in my heart, I looked too much at the strength of the Jin army under the Weisheng Jiedu, and I didn't even ask about the situation of the Chu army, and now I look at the formation of the Chu army, which has been prepared for a long time...
