Thinking of this, Cheng Lian waved his hand to let the deputy general come over, and he lowered his voice and ordered: "You come here, like this,...... And so it is! ”

"Ahh General, this must not be done! If you're not there, once something happens, your subordinates can't afford it! The adjutant general was shocked when he heard what Lian had ordered him, and hurriedly refused.

"Alas!" When Cheng Lian heard this, he sighed, and sighed in his heart: He, the deputy general, is good at everything, and the only drawback is that he does not have the slightest responsibility.

After thinking about it, Cheng Lian had no choice but to call another deputy general over, this person was a young general of the Yellow Turban Army, about thirty years old, taciturn, and couldn't see any great ability. Cheng Lian doesn't know how to look at people, and when he finished selecting his subordinate soldiers, he wanted to choose a few suitable battalion officers, so he asked Jin Jue to give him ideas, and Jin Jue recommended this Reggie to him at that time.

Coincidentally, Cheng Lian's confidant lieutenant is named He Xiang.

"Reggie, Ben Sima has given you a task, is this ......, can you complete it?" Cheng Lian whispered to him again and repeated the idea just now.

"Obey!" Reggie's words were really not much, he just bowed his head and gave Cheng Lian a salute, and then accepted it.

"Humph!" When Cheng Lian heard this, he put his heart down, but when he looked at He Xiang, he couldn't help but glare at him, and snorted angrily: "Something that can't be supported by mud on the wall!" ”

After speaking, Cheng Lian and Reggie each arranged their own arrangements in the army according to Cheng Lian's instructions.

Today, He Xiang still picked out some unlucky ghosts from the army as he did yesterday, and continued the tactics of adding fuel a few days ago, this time the effect was even worse, as soon as the selected daredevils entered the ambush circle of the Di guard troops, they immediately chose to disarm, kneel and bow down, and surrender. However, because many brothers were killed and injured by the death squad a few days ago, they actually killed all these Han soldiers who chose to surrender because they were resentful.

Killing is ominous, this is a taboo for generals, even if the two sides are of different races. But after Agui, the king of Xingguo, learned about this, he didn't care at all, which laid the groundwork for his subsequent defeat.

"King, last night, there was a movement in the Han army, because the night was too dark, we couldn't notice it, and at dawn today, the scouts found out that the Han soldiers had fled! The opposing generals fled in a hurry with less than 5,000 men. Please show me the king! When the generals of the Di tribe who were blocking the road in front found out about the situation, they quickly sent a herald to report to Ah Guiyu.

"Are you sure that the other party is fleeing, not retreating?" Aguihu asked suspiciously.

The Han people are good at deception, and Ah Gui has always been very suspicious, so he must get accurate information before he can make the next judgment and deployment.

"Sure the king, in the Han army camp, a large number of flags and grain and grass are scattered everywhere, but there are few weapons in the hands of Han soldiers on the ground. Moreover, the pair of men and horses of the Han army generals were disheveled, and there were still a lot of blood stains on the soldiers, and it seemed that they had experienced a big battle inside last night. The herald replied.

"Oh!" When Agui heard this, his eyes lit up, and he immediately became excited, if the generals of the Han army were defeated, at most they would leave flags and a small amount of military rations and weapons in the camp, and there was no reason why it was impossible to leave a large amount of military rations together, so to speak, because yesterday's killing and surrender greatly stimulated the hearts of the soldiers in the Han military camp, so that they broke up last night,

Thinking of this, Agui immediately shouted: "You go back immediately, tell Alu, let him personally lead half of the soldiers, immediately send troops to pursue, and after catching up with the deserters of the Han army, don't fight with them, just fall behind them." ”

"No!" After hearing the order, the herald immediately turned and left.

"Pass the order, immediately gather the warriors in the tribe, and pursue the Han army on horseback, so that they will not come back this time!" Agui commanded loudly again.

Although the Di people of Wudu County have chosen to settle down in Wudu County, their tribe still retains the habit of raising horses, to paraphrase a term - it is called half-farming and half-pasture. Therefore, the soldiers of the Di tribe in Wudu County are still mostly cavalry.

It only took half an hour for Ah Gui to gather the 3,000 cavalry of the tribe, and they quickly set off and chased straight in the direction of the Han army's defeat.

The defeat of Cheng Lian's army was naturally an illusion. Before, Cheng Lian had always adopted an offensive method like adding oil, just selecting dead soldiers in the army to launch a night attack at dusk, late at night or before dawn, which had an effect, but after all, this was the home field of the Di people, and in the end they all failed.

Many elites in the army died, but there were not many soldiers who were actually killed in battle, and the military rations in the army were quite sufficient, of course, not enough to break up this team.

Cheng Lian did this on purpose. In order to be able to attract Agui's main force, he took advantage of last night to ask He Xiang to give his order, except for the Shuai Qi, all the other flags in the army and half of the food in the army were thrown in the camp.

As for why they didn't throw down their weapons, Ah Gui could think of this, since the soldiers fled spontaneously, in order to be able to survive, they would definitely not throw away the only thing in their hands that could save their lives.

At the same time, Cheng Lian himself picked out 3,000 very short soldiers from the army, gathered them, and quickly moved to climb the mountains on both sides of the Han camp and hid them.

The rest of the camp was left to Reggie, and he was the only one who had the ability to do it. Most of the soldiers in the battalion are Yellow Turbans, and even if Cheng Lian personally gives the order, he may not necessarily do a better job than Reggie.

Reggie gave the order that two-thirds of the men in the army, under the leadership of their heads, should at once take their weapons and flee along the paths in the mountains, and after noon to-morrow, they must gather up their troops as much as possible, and then go back to the back to gather with the main force.

On the way back, in addition to the main passage, there are many small roads in the mountains, many forks in the road, which are easy to hide, which gives Cheng Lian the favorable conditions for an ambush battle.

If it is a cautious character, even if the Cheng Lian army really breaks up and escapes, Agui will definitely not send troops, but if he has ambition in his heart and wants the Cheng Lian army to be powerful, he will definitely send troops.

At that time, as long as Cheng Lian's department suddenly appeared behind him, Agui would definitely be defeated.

If Cheng Lian dared to do this in the plain area, he would definitely be looking for death, because the army of the Di people is all cavalry, but this is Wudu County, and this is the mountainous area, if it weren't for this, before Agui, he would not have only sent a thousand soldiers from the tribe to block the passage and block the attack of Cheng Lian's 10,000 soldiers.

Of course, there is still a great risk in the implementation of this strategy, if Cheng Lian stays in the rear to intercept the return of the Di cavalry generals are incompetent, or do not have enough strength, maybe they will be attacked by the Di soldiers who desperately want to take the way back.

It was precisely in order to prevent this from happening, Cheng Lian took matters into his own hands, and he left the most difficult task to himself, and he personally served as the general who blocked the back of the Di chasing army, and handed over all the soldiers to the commander of Reggie.

This is also the reason why He Xiang did not dare to take on this important task, if these soldiers were personally trained by him, He Xiang might still take on this task head-on, but most of the soldiers in the Chenglian Army were all the old members of the Yellow Turban Army, how could they listen to the orders of him, a young general of the Lu Bu Army.

"King, the main force of the Han army is less than a mile ahead." The Di scouts in front reported.

"Children, immediately urge the horse to chase me, and kill the Han army without leaving a piece of armor." When Ah Gui heard this, he excitedly shouted at the tribal soldiers.

But at this moment, a cavalry cavalry quickly rushed over, and he shouted loudly in panic: "Great king, something is wrong! A Han army suddenly appeared in the rear of our army, and they dispersed the defenders guarding the passage, and our retreat was blocked. ”
