Chapter 1144: Lu Su bluffed
Huangpoling is only more than ten miles away from the Wu army camp, and if 30,000 soldiers march in a hurry, they can return within half an hour. Worried about the safety of the camp, Lu Su ordered a full speed march and returned to the camp.
Along the way, Lu Su paid close attention to the movements in the direction of the camp.
The camp's fires were lined up and smoke obscured the sky. To achieve this effect, the entire camp must be burned to this scale. Lu Su estimated the result, and his mood was even lower, and he could only hope that Huang Gai, Zu Mao, Lu Fan, Zhang Hong and others would be safe and sound, and they could escape safely, this is Lu Su's current thoughts.
If Sun Jian and Tai Shici trusted each other, Lu Su felt that there was still a chance to defeat Wang Can.
After Tai Shici surrendered to the enemy, Lu Su had no idea of winning.
Fighting for strategy, Wang Can has Guo Jia, Jia Xu and Xu Shu under the command of three wise men, and the three of them make suggestions together, far better than Lu Su; Fighting generals, Wang Can has Dian Wei, Lu Meng, Zhang Ren, Zhang Xiu, Gan Ning and other fierce generals, plus a Tai Shici who has just surrendered to the enemy, is even more unstoppable, and it is difficult to frustrate its edge; Fighting for the boss, Wang Can is as good as a stream, and can take the suggestions of his subordinates, Sun Jian is bent on going his own way, and he is stubborn and self-serving, which makes Lu Su exhausted and difficult to support the overall situation.
The idea of defeating the Shu army had completely disappeared in Lu Su's mind. At this moment, Lu Su only thought about withdrawing safely and preserving more strength for the state of Wu.
"Hey, why does there seem to be a shout of killing coming from ahead?"
When Lu Su was thinking about the retreat of the army, he heard a burst of shouts and killings in the distance. Lu Su's heart moved, and he ordered: "Lu Yan, you lead a hundred soldiers and immediately go to the front to inquire about the news and investigate the situation." ”
"No!"
Lu Yan responded with a fist and rushed away with a hundred soldiers.
After Lu Yan left, Lu Su ordered the army to stop and wait for news. If there is a Shu army blocking the road in front, Lu Su must lead the army to kill it, if he encounters his own team, Lu Su does not need to guess what the situation is, it must be a soldier who escaped from the barracks, or asked for help, or all fled here.
Half a pillar of incense was not enough, Lu Yan led ten relatives to rush back, hugged his fists and said: "My lord, the army in front is a large army that has escaped, General Huang, General Zu, General Lu and Lord Zhang and other military generals are among them, and they are coming quickly. ”
"Ahh
Even if Lu Su was prepared, he couldn't help but exclaim.
The camp was finally captured by the Shu army.
Lu Yan asked: "My lord, the Shu army is chasing and killing, the momentum is violent, where are our army and General Huang together, and it is difficult to defeat the Shu army, what should I do?" Lu Yan's expression was eager, and a flash of fear flashed in his eyes. Hundreds of thousands of Shu troops were killed, and it was impossible to defeat the Shu army with their little strength, and it was very difficult to protect themselves.
Lu Su pondered, used his brain, and considered how to deal with it.
Time passed, the shouting of killing was getting closer and closer, and Lu Yan's face was already covered with an eager look. At this time, it was all up to Lu Su to support the overall situation, Lu Su raised his head and ordered: "Pass the order, let the army withdraw to Huangpoling." ”
Lu Yan asked, "My lord, why is this?" ”
Lu Su said eagerly: "Time is urgent, I'll tell you how to arrange it while walking." Lu Su led the soldiers back to Huangpoling, and the soldiers began to march rapidly again, quickly running back.
The soldiers did not know why, so they could only carry out orders.
When he was on the way, Lu Su said: "Lu Yan, Huang Gai, Zu Mao, Zhang Hong and others led the army to be chased and killed by the Shu army, and more than 200,000 troops suffered heavy casualties, and it was difficult to fight again. Even if we add our 30,000 troops, it will be difficult to defeat the Shu army, and how to survive is the most important question. If you want to stabilize the situation, you can only bluff and take risks to have a chance to save all the soldiers. ”
Lu Yan said: "Please show me!" ”
Lu Su said quickly: "We will withdraw the soldiers to Huangpoling, stop at Huangpoling, and wait for the Shu army to kill,......, when the time comes, deceive the Shu army and scare the Shu army away." You immediately tell Huang Gai and Zu Mao about my plan, let the two of them rush towards Huangpoling, and organize the fleeing soldiers to stabilize the situation. ”
"No!"
Lu Yan replied with his fists clenched, and turned his horse to the side.
Lu Su led the army to continue the road and stopped when he returned to Huangpoling. Next, Lu Su summoned all the generals in the army and ordered the matter to continue, so that all the soldiers could cheer up and deal with the next battle.
A quarter of an hour later, the shouts of killing approached Huangpoling.
Lu Su heard the voice and knew that Huang Gai, Zu Mao and others had led the army to come and had approached Huangpoling.
Huang Gai and Zu Mao led the army to retreat, and when they arrived at Huangpoling, they found that Lu Su had not sent reinforcements yet, and they were anxious. Huang Gai asked in a deep voice: "Lu Yan, Zijing said that he was waiting in Huangpoling, why hasn't anyone come yet?" ”
Lu Yan said: "General rest assured, Lord Lu is waiting here." ”
Huang Gai suppressed the worry in his heart and continued to retreat.
The Shu army was aggressive, closely following the Wu army, covering up and killing I don't know how many Wu soldiers, and countless Wu soldiers chose to surrender and became prisoners of the Shu army.
Of the 250,000 troops, only more than 90,000 remnants were left and suffered heavy losses.
In the Shu army, the main commander who led the army to chase and kill was Gan Ning, Pang De and Zhou Tai accompanied him, and the military advisor was Xu Shu, who was responsible for formulating strategies. Seeing that the Shu army chased to Huangpoling, Xu Shu said: "Huangpoling is silent, it seems that the war is over, the lord should have withdrawn to the camp, I don't know if Sun Jian was captured by the lord?" ”
Gan Ning smiled and said: "Master Xu, Sun Jian is just a reckless man, he only knows how to fight bravely, so he doesn't have to worry. The lord risked his life to attract Sun Jian, and he would definitely capture Sun Jian. ”
Xu Shu said: "I hope what General Gan said is true. ”
When Gan Ning and Xu Shu were talking and laughing, there was a sudden shouting of killing from Huangpoling.
Countless soldiers of the Wu Army came out of Huangpoling, shouting and screaming. Gan Ning frowned, and ordered: "Immediately investigate the situation and find out what happened." ”
Just as Gan Ning gave the order, Zhou Tai hurriedly ran back.
Zhou Tai looked anxious and said loudly: "Lao Gan, military advisor, it's not good, the lord has an accident." ”
Gan Ning's thick eyebrows furrowed and asked, "Zhou Tai, what's wrong with the lord?" ”
Xu Shu also became nervous, waiting for Zhou Tai to speak.
Zhou Tai said in a deep voice: "Just when we were chasing the remnants of the Wu army led by Huang Gai and Zu Mao, Lu Su suddenly led tens of thousands of Wu soldiers to kill and cover the retreat of Huang Gai and Zu Mao. Moreover, the soldiers of the Wu army shouted that Tai Shici was killed, the lord was injured, and Dian Wei and others retreated to protect the lord. Now Sun Jian is leading the army to chase after the lord, the situation is critical, and the lord must be rescued. ”
When Gan Ning heard this, he immediately became anxious.
He said in a deep voice: "Strategist, the lord is in danger, ignore Huang Gai first, and rescue the lord." ”
Xu Shu nodded and said, "No matter what Wu Jun said is true or false?" The lord must be rescued, but the opportunity to exterminate the Wu army cannot be missed. I think that the troops should be divided, Xingba, and you and Zhou Tai will lead some of the soldiers to rescue the lord, and the rest of the soldiers will stay in Huangpoling, and follow me to exterminate the Wu soldiers who have fled. ”
Pang De rushed over and said, "Military Division, Lu Su led 30,000 soldiers to kill, converge with the Wu army, and cover the retreat of the Wu army. After the Wu army converged, there were about 1230,000 men, and there were soldiers faintly in the surrounding reeds, and there seemed to be ambushes on the other hillsides and mountain forests. ”
Xu Shu frowned and said, "This Lu Su has a bit of ability. ”
Pang De said eagerly: "Strategist, don't worry about it for now, let's talk about what to do." ”
Gan Ning frowned and said: "Military advisor, since Lu Su has been prepared for a long time, it is impossible for us to exterminate the Wu army, and it is the right thing to lead the army to rescue the lord." Once the army catches up, it can also block Sun Jian's retreat, and when the time comes, not only will the lord be saved, but Sun Jian can also be killed. Besides, Sun Jian is dead, and Wu Jun doesn't have to worry about it. ”
Zhou Tai and Pang De nodded at the same time, agreeing with Gan Ning's words.
Xu Shu still wanted to divide the troops, but saw that Zhou Tai and Pang De also recognized Gan Ning's method, and finally agreed to Gan Ning's strategy. The army bypassed the Wu army and slaughtered in the direction of the camp.
