In all fairness, Zhao Hongrun's plan is not an unfathomable strategy, and it can be summed up in just a few words. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Give the dummy!

Break them one by one!

It is undeniable that Monsan is a key strategic point, and if this place can be taken, it will be very helpful for Zhao Hongrun to attack Xiangcheng in the future.

But the problem is that the Monsanchu camp is not easy to attack.

First of all, the Chu general Doulian built the Mengshan Chu camp into a solid place, making it impossible for the Wei army to conquer this fortress-like military camp in a short time.

Secondly, on the south side of Mengshan, there are 40,000 Chu troops sent by Xiangcheng to support the Chu generals Nanmen Jue and Nanmen Huai, if Zhao Hongrun is dedicated to attacking Mengshan, then the final result will be that the Mengshan Chu battalion cannot be attacked, and the Wei army will be jointly attacked by the Nanmen brothers.

And this is not the most deadly, the most deadly, is the tens of thousands of Longji Mountain Chu troops led by the Chu general Nanmenyang who stopped at the original garrison of the Shangshui Army at this moment.

Once Nanmenyang led the army to the vicinity of Mengshan, then the Chu army in this area would increase to 100,000 people, and with the addition of the Chu army in Xiangcheng, this would already be more than twice the total strength of the Wei army.

If these more than 100,000 Chu troops are just peasant soldiers, then they are not afraid, but the problem is that these more than 100,000 people are all the regular army of Chu State, and they are regular troops!

When the time comes, these hundreds of thousands of Chu troops will surround the Wei army, even if it is Zhao Hongrun, I am afraid there is no good way to reverse the disadvantage.

Therefore, Zhao Hongrun had to destroy the intention of these Chu armies to "besiege the Wei army" in this urgent time before Nanmenyang led the army to arrive.

Since Monshan can't conquer it in a short period of time, he simply opened up the situation from the two Chu generals of Nanmen Jue and Nanmen Huai.

Therefore, Zhao Hongrun sent the Green Crows to harass the Mengshan Chu camp and create chaos inside, and at the same time sent thousands of Shang Shui troops to support the Green Crows, not to conquer the Mengshan Chu camp, but to trick the Mengshan Chu general Dou Lian to quickly lead the troops back to help.

And once Dou Lian led the army to withdraw and return to Mengshan, then the Wei general Xu Yin's side would be able to free up his hands and make the Fencheng army also join the ranks of the brothers besieging Nanmen.

So that the three Wei armies could concentrate their forces and first defeat the 40,000 Xiangcheng Chu army of Nanmen Jue and Nanmen Huai.

This is the trick of warfare: it is better to cut off one finger than to hurt the enemy's ten fingers, concentrate a limited number of troops, attack one point of the enemy's army, and try to break the deadlock in a short time.

Of course, don't look at this trick to explain that this is just like this, but in fact, if it weren't for the fact that the commander of the Wei army at the foot of Mengshan Mountain at this moment was Xu Yin, the general of the Fencheng army, Zhao Hongrun would not dare to arrange it like this.

Because this requires a very high tacit understanding, Xu Yin needs to be able to understand and understand the real goal that Zhao Hongrun wants to attack, otherwise, if he is replaced by a stupid command general, Zhao Hongrun will attack Nanmen Jue and Nanmen Huai according to the plan, and the Fencheng army and Yanling army here mistakenly thought that Zhao Hongrun was going to attack Mengshan when they saw the fire in Mengshan, and stupidly led the army to attack, which is too depressing.

However, it turns out that Xu Yin is worthy of being a veteran who has been in Fencheng for more than ten years, and after some thinking and weighing, he immediately grasped Zhao Hongrun's true intentions. After the Chu general Doulian was skillfully deceived back to Mengshan by Zhao Hongrun, he immediately ordered the Fencheng army to turn its guns and attack the Xiangcheng Chu army of the Nanmen brothers. "PS: Writing this plot, I suddenly thought of the author who used to play Three Kingdoms, Trick the enemy into returning to the city, concentrate his firepower to kill the rest of the enemy army, and the battle is remarkable."

At this time, it was already around the end of the day, if in the past, even on the battlefield, the two soldiers of the enemy and us would have rested early, and God knows if a battle would break out on the second day?

But tonight, the battle between the Wei army and the Chu army was even more fierce than in the daytime.

I saw that in the main formation of the Chu army in Xiangcheng on the south side, the Chu general Nanmen Jue was secretly scolding the Wei army while commanding the deployment.

"I don't fight during the day, but I want to fight at night...... Are the generals of Wei not in a good way?"

I have to say that Nanmen Jue's mood is not very good.

The reason is very simple, because he led 20,000 Xiangcheng Chu troops from Xiangcheng during the day today to come to the aid of Dou Lian, but he didn't expect to be intercepted by the Zhongwei Battalion of the Fencheng Army, who did not let him join the Mengshan Chu army.

What made Nanmen Jue feel depressed was that the 20,000 Xiangcheng Chu troops under his command could not break through the Zhongwei battalion of the Fencheng army, and could not break through the defense line built by only 5,000 Wei troops in this district.

20,000 attacking 5,000, and not being able to win, this is extremely humiliating!

Although the infantry of the Wei army has always been strong, it is not so strong, right?

What made Nanmen Jue feel even more depressed was that Xiangcheng saw that he couldn't break the deadlock, so he actually sent their Nanmen clan brother again, and asked Nanmen Huai to lead another 20,000 Xiangcheng Chu troops to assist.

Although the arrival of Nanmen Huai made Nanmen Jue suppress the Zhongwei Battalion of the Fencheng Army for a time, to be honest, the latter did not have the slightest sense of achievement.

40,000 to 5,000, even if you can win, what kind of face do you have?

But what I didn't expect was that it didn't take long for the Wei army to get assistance, and the Yan Ling army of Wei supported the Fen Ling army, a Wei general named Yan Mo, led nearly 10,000 or so Yan Ling soldiers and soldiers, and assisted Deng Peng, the battalion general of the Fen Cheng army's middle guard battalion, to firmly hold the defense line, not to let Nanmen Jue and Nanmen Huai take a step forward.

And this incident made Nanmen Jue more and more angry.

Because as far as he knew, the Wei army named the Yanling Army was the Wei army composed of their Chu people, and Yan Mo, who led the troops, was also the first 3,000 generals under Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng.

"Treasonous thief!"

Thinking of this, Nanmen Jue couldn't help but curse in a low voice.

And at this moment, the adjutant general beside him exclaimed: "General, look at the direction of Mongsan!" ”

"What?" Nanmen Jue subconsciously looked at Meng Shan, and then his face changed slightly.

Because he saw that at the top of Monshan Mountain, the fire was raging at this moment, and he could guess that there must be some urgent enemy situation in the camp.

Suddenly, a guess appeared in the mind of the south gate.

"Oops! Xu Yin's old dog, this is the tiger leaving the mountain......

Nanmen Jue's face became a little unsightly, because anyone who saw this scene would make such an idea: The Wei army attacked their Nanmen brothers in order to lure Dou Lian in Mengshan's Chu camp to come down the mountain to help.

Thinking that an hour ago, he was still very happy that Dou Lian led his army down the mountain to flank the Wei army with their Nanmen brothers, and Nanmen Jue shouted in his heart: Dou Lian has won the plan!

I saw that he weighed it for a moment, and immediately ordered: "The whole army is moving closer to the direction of Monshan!" See the opportunity to help Monsan! ”

The general order was issued, and Nanmen Jue's army fought and moved, slowly moving closer to Monsan, ready to aid Monsan at any time.

During this period, he also received a report on the actions of Monsan's guards.

"Report! The Monsan Doulian Army has escaped from the fight with the Wei army and withdrawn to Monsan! ”

Hearing this news, Nanmen Jue breathed a sigh of relief.

However, he gradually felt that something was wrong with the situation, because according to the reports sent by his subordinates frequently to ask for help, he felt that the Wei army's attack on him was becoming more and more fierce.

"What's going on?" Isn't the Wei army fighting Monshan? How do you ......?

Nanmen Jue was a little puzzled.

At the same time, in Nanmen Huai's army, Nanmen Huai had already discovered the inexplicable fire in the direction of Mengshan, and he didn't feel frowning.

"Report! General Jue's army is moving closer to Monsan! ”

Several scouts quickly informed Nanmen Huai of the movements of Nanmen Jue's army on the west side.

"Brother Clansman moving closer to Monsan? Do you want to help Dou Lian?'

Nanmen Huai frowned, and had no choice but to order: to support Nanmen Jue's army, and the army also moved closer to Mengshan.

To be honest, this general order does not need to be considered at all, because Nanmen Huai can only do this, otherwise, his army and Nanmen Jue's army will be divided by the Wei army and can no longer play the role of mutual support.

The movement of the clan brother Nanmen Huai's army reached Nanmen Jue's ears in a short time, which made his uneasy heart calm down a little.

But even so, he still felt inexplicably uneasy.

Because the Wei army he was facing at the moment, for some reason, the attack on the army under his command became more and more ferocious, as if the Wei general Xu Yin had given an order for a general attack.

And just when Nanmen Jue was confused, several scouts rushed to the ground not far away, knocking on the ground and saying: "General Qiqi (South Gate) Jue, General (South Gate) Huai were attacked by the Yanling army of Wei State. ”

"Huh?"

Nanmen Jue was slightly stunned, because according to what he knew, the Yan Ling army of Wei was directly in front of him, how could it be transferred to his brother Nanmen Huai?

"Is that Yan Mo?" Nanmen Juehu asked suspiciously.

As soon as the words fell, one of the scouts said urgently: "No, it's Qu Cheng, the general of the Yanling Army!" ”

"Damn it! …… Another traitor!'

Nanmen Jue scolded in his heart when he heard this.

You must know that the surname Qu belongs to the level of princes and nobles in the Chu State, although the grasp of the entire country is not as good as the Xiong family, but it is undeniable that it is also an ancient and noble surname.

And that Qu Cheng actually disregarded his noble background and turned his back on the country to take refuge in the Wei State, which is simply a shame for the Qu family!

Even the shame of the entire aristocracy of the Chu State!

But after thinking about it, Nanmen Jue was a little gloating, after all, when the Qu clan was in power, the relationship with their Nanmen clan was not much better.

With a light snort, Nanmen Jue said calmly: "Go back and tell Nanmen Huai to ask him to lead the troops closer to me......"

Before the words fell, suddenly several scouts from the southwest direction came to report in a panic.

"Report! In the southwest direction of our army, traces of enemy troops have been found! ”

"Southwest?"

Nanmen Jue looked stunned, where did the Wei army come from in the southwest?

At the same time, in the southwest direction of the Nanmen Jue army, Lu Zhan, the 3,000 general of the Shang Water Army, looked at the torches like stars in the distance, looked back at Wu Ji, the general of the Shang Water Army, and said: "General, Nanmen Jue is really as His Royal Highness expected, moving closer to Mengshan...... His army had reached the intended ambush. ”

"Okay." I saw Wu Ji, who was straddling the mount, slowly drew out the sword at his waist, and then pointed the sword forward, slowly put away the smile on his face, and shouted in a deep voice: "The merchant army listens to the order and defeats the enemy army in front of you!" ”

"Wow——!"

The 20,000 merchant and water troops shouted violently, and the whole army dispersed, outflanking the latter from the west, southwest, and south sides of the Nanmen Jue army. (To be continued.) )
