Chapter 774: Crazy Counterattack (Thirty-Four)
Chen Cheng immediately arched his hand, turned around and left.
Gao Tang's expression was solemn, but he no longer had the previous worries. After all, the big picture is broken. The Tatars' plan to attack inside and out failed. Now for him, it is good to withstand the attack of the Tatar army.
He stayed alone in the lobby and waited for news, but there was no news all afternoon, until the sun went down and the sky was getting darker.
First of all, Chen Cheng's news, he successfully rescued more than 10,000 people and brought them back to the city, but because of their conditions, nearly 30,000 Tatar slaves escaped.
Gao Tang nodded and said, "Brother Chen is doing the right thing, you can't just watch the people die." Then we will lose the hearts and minds of the people. ”
Chen Cheng said: "It was for this reason that I released those Tatar soldiers. ”
Then, there was the news of the withdrawal of the Tatar troops from the Black Tiger Ridge.
Gao Tang smiled after hearing this, and said: "I didn't expect that this difficult situation was almost broken like this. ”
Chen Cheng said: "This is all thanks to General Gao who thought of the Tatar Army's plan to get rid of the golden cicada." Otherwise, our forces will be pinned down in the land of Pingdu, and this dilemma will already be unsolvable, not only will it not be solved, but it will also fall into more places! ”
Gao Tang said: "I was too confused before, I just thought about being scared. Otherwise, we wouldn't have let the Tarslave army play with us so easily! ”
Chen Cheng said: "No matter what, the current dilemma is solved, but I think that the Tatar army is only temporarily withdrawing, and they will attack again." ”
Gao Tang said: "Then let them come, I'm not afraid of him now." ”
Chen Cheng said: "Yes, and our reinforcements will come in a few days." ”
Gao Tang said: "Now it seems that Zeng Bing is necessary. Otherwise, the Tarslavs will be unscrupulous. They must know the number of our soldiers and horses. ”
Chen Cheng said: "Definitely, don't say you know everything, at least you know a rough idea." ”
"Brother Chen, what are you going to do next when you see the Tartar slaves?" Gao Tang asked.
Chen Cheng thought for a while and said, "I think our plan was seen through by us this time. The next step is already a matter of calculation. It will definitely not be a straightforward attack. There must have been some high-ranking people in the Tatar army who gave him command again. ”
"Well, so our spies are on an important mission. Only if we know the whereabouts of the Tarslaves can we take further precautions. Gao Tang said.
Chen Cheng said: "General Gao, although we have seen through the strategy of the Tarnu army this time, we have not won a big victory except for the annihilation of more than 20,000 enemies in Pingdu, and we have lost thousands of people. ”
"You're right, it's true that we didn't have a big victory, but we kept Pingliangzhou, which is our victory. This is also a directive from His Majesty. Gao Tang said.
"Yes, our purpose is to keep Pingliang Prefecture, and this purpose has been achieved." Chen Cheng said.
Gao Tang continued: "And our next task is still to protect Pingliang Prefecture. ”
"Hmm." Chen Cheng nodded, with a resolute look in his eyes.
……
There was a deathly silence in the hall of the state government in Anzhou City. There were only two people inside, a Great Yang Dynasty protector general Ma Spur, and a scheming Confucian Zhang Gang. The candle flame burned silently, as if it were still.
Spurs stood in front of the table in the lobby. Zhang Gang sat on a chair on one side.
After a long time, the spurs began to move, and after pacing in place for a few steps, they looked at Zhang Gang, who was also getting east. Zhang Gang slowly fanned the fan, his eyes lowered, his expression was solemn, but he looked very indifferent.
"Mr. Zhang, this ploy was unexpectedly discovered by the Han army. What do we do next? Spurs asked.
"General, take it slowly, let the Han army relax a little. Although our losses this time were greater than those of the Han army, the Han army also suffered losses, which was not a loss considering that the Han army's weapons were better than ours. I have a plan, and it looks like I'm going to use it. Zhang Gang shook his fan and said.
"What's the strategy?" Spurs asked.
Zhang Gang said: "Turn the tiger away from the mountain. ”
"Turning the tiger away from the mountain?" Spur's thick eyebrows furrowed.
"Yes, I will use a strategy to transfer the main force of the Han army out of Pingliang Prefecture." Zhang Gang said.
The spur's little eyes rolled in the small sockets, and he pondered for a moment before saying, "Mr. Zhang, if you want the main force of the Han army to leave Pingliang Prefecture, I'm afraid it's impossible!" ”
"That's why I'm going to use it!" Zhang Gang said lightly, at this time he actually smiled slightly, and his smile was a little sinister.
The Spurs frowned and meditated without understanding. But after thinking about it, I just can't think of any good way to get the main force of the Han army out of this Pingliang Prefecture.
Then he couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Zhang, what can you do to get the main force of the Han army out of Pingliangzhou?" ”
Zhang Gang smiled mysteriously and said, "General, you will know when the time comes." ”
Spurs said, "But General Ben wants to know now." ”
"It's okay, then Zhang will tell the general about this strategy now." Zhang Gang said.
Spurs suddenly thought of something, in order to show his ingenuity, he didn't wait for Zhang Gang to say this strategy before he said his thoughts.
I only heard him say: "Mr. Zhang, did you use a deceit to transfer the Han army out of Pingliang Prefecture?" ”
Zhang Gang smiled slightly, and asked rhetorically: "Does the general mean that our army and the Han army pretended to be defeated when they were engaged and let the Han army pursue?" ”
Spur smiled and said, "Mr. Zhang is right, that's what General Ben meant. ”
Zhang Gang smiled slightly when he heard this, shook his fan, and said with a smile: "The general's strategy is good, but this method is really old-fashioned, and it is easy for the Han army to see through." Even if it is chased out, the Han army will not chase it too far. ”
Spur smiled and said, "Yes, this strategy of General Ben is indeed a bit old-fashioned. Then let General Ben listen to Mr. Zhang's opinion, right? ”
"Okay, the general, listen up." Zhang Gang sold it like a storyteller.
"General Ben listens." Spurs said.
Zhang Gang said: "We will withdraw our troops and give up Anzhou City." ”
"What?" Spurs shouted loudly when they heard this.
Zhang Gang smiled and said, "Is the general surprised?" ”
"That's natural, how can we let you get Anzhou City out? This Anzhou City is the closest city-state to Pingliang Prefecture. Wouldn't letting it out cut off the fulcrum of our attack? Spurs asked, still surprised.
Zhang Gang said with a faint smile: "General, it is because of this that we can arouse the interest of the Han army." Otherwise, why did people let the main army out of Pingliangzhou? ”
This said, on the contrary, the spurs were stunned. But he still didn't seem to understand Zhang Gang's specific meaning.
