Chapter 46: The Empty City Plan

Chinese As soon as the war horse turned around, Pei Cai couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "It's over!" "If I had known, I wouldn't have come to Jiang Jigang!

Although he handed over all the command power to Liu Yetang, his position as the commander of the first army will not change, and standing in the middle of the battle, he will inevitably become the target of the attention of all the soldiers...... Now that he is running like this, there is no doubt that Daxu will also follow, so is it possible to continue to keep the array intact?

Speaking of intangible factors such as people's hearts and morale, Pei Gai has two thousand years of experience after all, regardless of the implementation experience, just the level of understanding, it is really no worse than the famous generals of the world.

Watermark Advertising TestWatermark Advertising TestThose who think that as long as there are more people, they can win battles, and their morale is easy to drum up and difficult to leak - or at least they are on their own side - even if they are martial artists, the estimated level is not much higher than that of Wang Yan's generation.

So Pei should even realize that this battle was lost, and the defeat was ugly! How could I be so unlucky?

The first time a general suffered such a big loss? Not only did it fail to defeat the enemy's momentum, but this defeat and escape may even be difficult to defend Huaiyin City...... Now I can only hope that the number of enemy troops is not large, and it is not possible to quickly sweep the entire Huaiyin County, so I quickly lead the remnants of the army to flee to Sheyang...... Then, he could only ask Wang Dao for help...... Presumably when the news of defeat reached Jianye, Wang Maohong must have laughed happily.

Director Wang's serious and upright face couldn't help but appear in front of him, although he couldn't imagine what kind of virtue that guy was smiling proudly, but ...... No, I can't afford to lose this person!

Pei Gai tried to stop the mount, while silently calculating in his heart, and finally made up his mind: Lao Tzu will not retreat!

Go to guard Huaiyin City, if you can keep it for a day, if Zu Ti can rush back in time when he hears the news, there may still be a chance to make amends; Otherwise, die in battle!

This crossing has changed history to a considerable extent: Zu Ti advanced the Northern Expedition, Shi Le postponed the foundation, and Xi Jian fell into the hands of the enemy...... Maybe the butterfly wing effect can spread better than the original historical trend?

If so, what a pity to die! And even if the course of history does not get better, but worse, I will die anyway, and there is no need to sigh.

He was busy stopping the mount, but the momentum of the mount's running had just slowed down, and he was rushed by the defeated soldiers, speeding up again, although Pei Gai's equestrian skills already had a certain foundation, after all, it was not a Hu man who was born on horseback to pee, as a result, Lele stopped, stopped and walked, and when he finally stabilized the mount completely, when he looked up, the front was already the west gate of Huaiyin City.

Well, finally escaped, let's go into the city and defend. Seeing the west gate slowly open, the drawbridge was lowered, and the defeated soldiers swarmed in.

Of course, there were a few brave ones, who, when they saw that the governor had stopped their horses, came up and guarded them with weaponsβ€”some were empty-handed, because their weapons had already been lost.

Pei should see that this is not possible, the morale is so sluggish, even if they all flee into the city, I am afraid that they will not have the courage to go to the city to resist the enemy, and I can hear Bian Yan's voice faintly from the city: "Envoy, please enter the city quickly!" Pei Cai couldn't help but grit his teeth, immediately turned the horse's head, then stood up upright with the stirrup, raised the bamboo cane, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Don't mess up, enter the city in an orderly manner!" After all, he is the governor of a state and the commander of the whole army, and this shout has played a role, and more and more soldiers have gathered around him.

Pei Gai immediately jumped off the horse and shouted: "It's all this evil animal, carry me out of battle, and the crime must not be punished!" Then he threw down the bamboo cane, drew the knife from his waist, and with all his calm strength, stabbed the horse with a fierce knife.

The knife entered the flesh, the blood was marked, the beast hissed miserably, and immediately fell sideways, pulling Pei Gai a stumbling, and quickly let go of the knife - he really didn't have the strength to pull the knife out again.

It was the neighing of the horses again, and it was the blood mark again, this scene shocked the army, and the people who were still running gradually slowed down, and the people gathered around Pei Gai calmed down slightly.

Seeing the figure flickering, Zhen Sui didn't know where to get out, and grabbed Pei Gai's arm: "Dudu, go quickly!" Pei Cai shouted: "Hugh is panicked! Then he asked him, "Where is Liu Yetang?" ”

"After the lead is broken, but I'm afraid it won't be long-the governor should hurry into the city!" Pei Gaiyi stretched out his hand: "Take your knife with me." Zhen Sui was stunned for a moment when he heard this, glanced down at the weapon in his hand, then let go of Pei Gai, snatched the knife from a small soldier beside him, and handed it to Pei Gai.

Pei Gai took the knife,

The sound of "brushing" was flicked towards the neck, and in the exclamations of everyone, it turned out that the hat was only cut off.

Then he tore off his helmet, then tore off his scarf, threw it to the ground, and said loudly: "Whoever retreats will be killed!" Although I am the head of an army, I cannot be outside the military law, and I should cut my hair and act as the head! Of course, this is Cao Cao, in order to strictly enforce military law and stabilize people's hearts.

When I grabbed my hair in a bun,

"Brush" two knives to cut off, then lean over to pick up the scarf, put it back on - because the cloak is so ugly, you look so embarrassed, how can you get the respect of the soldiers?

While tidying up the scarf, Pei Gai took care of Zhen Sui: "You quickly organize the column and enter the city in an orderly manner, so as not to chase after Hu Qi and everyone will die." "Retreat and escape are different after all, the orderly retreat will be faster, if the defeated troops flock into the city, everyone is vying for the first, maybe it will be caused

"Traffic jams", and in the end, no one wants to go back to the city. Zhen Sui said: "Governor, please ...... first" Pei Gai glared at him and shouted: "I am the main general, since I should be decided." If a soldier has not yet entered the city, I will not enter! "The voice is fierce, and the eyes are about to breathe fire.

Since Zhen Sui followed Pei Gai, he had never seen his master so angry, and his face was so hideous, no matter how unscrupulous he was, he couldn't help but shiver slightly.

And Zhen Sui looks rough, in fact, he is very smart, he knows that in this case, the lord will sit in front of the city gate, and let the soldiers enter the city in a row, which is the best way to solve the problem - if you go first, whether I can still hold it down later, it is really a big question mark!

In desperation, he had to bow down and receive the order. β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” Zhiqu Liu is not in the world

"Famous general", but after all, he is a member

The "general" has a certain level of grasp of the rhythm of the battlefield, coupled with his rough nature, he does not care about the life and death of the soldiers, so the sound of the hammer sounded, and the command post immediately launched a fierce attack on the Jin formation from the front.

There are more such generals in the general army, especially those who are reckless, and they are very sympathetic to the soldiers on weekdays, even if they are not as good as Wu Qi

"Sucking" is also quite able to think about what the soldiers think, and what the soldiers are anxious about; But once on the battlefield, as long as you can achieve victory, it doesn't matter how many people die - so-called

"Ci is not in charge of the soldiers" is also. Treat soldiers well in ordinary times, it is precisely for them to be able to serve them in wartime, raise soldiers for a thousand days, and use them for a while, you don't die in wartime, do you really look forward to returning to your hometown when you are old?

As soon as the chirping sounded, the opponent's formation was not yet scattered, and if he launched a charge in front of him at this time, he would inevitably have to pay a considerable price.

However, if the opponent commands properly and can adjust the strategy in time to block the surprise attack on the flanks, then launch an attack at that time, the chances of victory will be reduced to a certain extent.

Therefore, if you die, you will die, and the most important thing is to be able to win. Sure enough, the main cavalry rushed forward, and the Jin formation had just begun to disperse, and many Jin soldiers had not yet reacted, so they instinctively opened their bows and arrows, and the Hu cavalry who rushed to the forefront fell more than a dozen people on the spot.

But soon, I saw that the opponent's formation was retreating backwards, and then the whole army collapsed, and Hu Cainai had to frankly line up the horses and rush into the enemy formation, and then brandished his sword and spear, and began to slash and kill.

At this time, let alone Liu Yetang, even if Zu Li is here, he will no longer have the power to return to heaven. Fortunately, Liu Yetang had rich experience and was able to control the army, and gathered more than 100 brave soldiers around him in time, and fought and retreated, doing his best to delay the enemy.

Liu Yetang knew very well that if the whole army collapsed and turned around and ran together, although he was riding a horse, he might not be able to escape faster than the infantry, and because he was riding a horse, the target was still big, and his life safety was not guaranteed at all.

And if you can hold back the enemy for a while, and wait for the opponent's charge to slow down, then you will have a chance to escape - of course, the core soldiers around you at this time may not even be able to leave half of them.

After all, Pei should have escaped first, if he Liu Yetang can ensure that the assassin can return to Huaiyin County safely, there is a high possibility that he will be able to offset the credit - of course, the premise is that Pei Gai is not too presumptuous, and does not push him out as a scapegoat, but since Zu Gai values Pei Gai so much, he will not be so black-hearted - and if Pei Gai is killed, even if he can escape alive, what face does he have to see Zu Gai again?

Therefore, he eagerly greeted Zhen Sui: "Quickly go and protect the governor, I will break the queen!" Liu Yetang's brave battle really slowed down Hu Qi's pursuit speed to a certain extent, so that the great escape did not evolve into a battle royale.

However, he only lasted for half a pillar of incense, and the soldiers around him became less and less, and finally he had to turn his horse's head and flee, and after running a short distance, he deliberately rolled off his horse and burrowed into the bushes by the roadside.

It is believed that Hu Qi is busy chasing and killing the defeated soldiers, so he will not abandon his horse and come to search for him. Only then did Hu Qi boldly chase and kill, and killed along the road until he reached the west gate of Huaiyin City, and the Jin army was defeated by no less than 100 people along the way.

When the first few horsemen were galloping, looking from afar, I saw that the city gate was open, and there were defeated soldiers fleeing into the city one after another, and they were about to take advantage of the situation to rush in and win the first merit, when they suddenly saw a person standing in front of the drawbridge - hey, this guy is not busy entering the city, why is his face facing our direction?

Although this person is not wearing a helmet, he is wearing a bright silver armor and a red cloak, and at first glance he is a general rather than a soldier, and his status is definitely not low.

This person also had no sharp blade in his hand, only a three-foot bamboo cane, with the staff to support the ground, with his back to the city gate, facing the direction that Hu Qi was chasing, and raised his hand to cover his eyebrows, looking from afar.

At this time, the red sun was sinking in the west, and it happened to project a thousand feet of afterglow from the direction behind Hu Qi, could it be that this guy had something wrong with his eyes, and he couldn't see far from the sunset, so he didn't see us?

Just feeling puzzled, he saw that the man grinned from a distance, as if he was laughing, and then lifted the bamboo cane, summoned in his direction, and even a few words floated in the wind-

"Come, come, come!" Then the man turned and swaggered onto the drawbridge toward the city.

The steps are quite big, and there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the legs and feet, but unlike the defeated soldiers who were chasing and killing before, they walked very steadily, and even a little slowly, as if they were not chasing the enemy behind them, but their own subordinates, and the man beckoned his subordinates to follow him into the city.

Is this person crazy, or is he looking at the wrong person? It shouldn't be...... The gate was still open, and there was no intention of closing, and even though the man had crossed the drawbridge, there was no sign of it pulling up again.

Several Hu soldiers involuntarily slowed down, and then when they reached the drawbridge, where they happened to enter the city, they stopped their mounts almost simultaneously.

Then they looked at each other - this is not right, is it ...... There is an ambush in the city?! Forget it, just a few of us, even if there is no ambush, as long as the city defenders are not in a disorder and the organization still exists, it is quite dangerous to rush in, so let's wait for the general to come over.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” Pei Gai kept his promise and was indeed the last to enter the city.

As soon as his left foot entered the city gate, he was grabbed by Zhen Suiyi-

"The governor is not weak, why is he unwilling to move quickly? If you have the will to die, it is better to reward the head to the old ...... The last general, the last general is good to ask for credit from the Hu people! Of course, this is angry words, Pei Gai glared at him fiercely: "Hugh is talking nonsense!" Without waiting for Zhen Sui to say anything more, he hurriedly ordered: "Pass my general order, no one is allowed to close the door or close the bridge." It was only then that he finally quickened his pace, and almost trotted past the doorway, and turned and climbed the wallβ€”he wanted to run faster, but the armor was too heavy...... In just a few breaths, Zhi Quliu immediately led the main force to Huaiyin City, and saw that the forward soldiers and horses were crowded in front of the drawbridge, refusing to go further, and couldn't help but be angry, and asked: "Why don't you take advantage of the situation to attack the city?" Hu Bing stretched out his hand and pointed: "General, please look, the gate is not closed, the drawbridge is not closed, I am afraid that there will be an ambush." Zhi Quliu looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but be deeply puzzled.

At this time, he suddenly saw a head poking out of the city, and the bamboo cane in his hand gestured at him: "I didn't expect the old man to come here, please enter the city quickly, I should prepare wine and food, and entertain General Zhi!" Zhi Quliu squinted his eyes and looked at it, and couldn't help but gasp: "Ah, Mr. Pei ......" But then he laughed: "Does Mr. Pei think I am Sima Yi?" "Even if I don't have Sima Yi's strategy, I'm much bolder than him, especially since you once told me

The story of the "Empty City Plan"! If I don't know that

"Historical events", maybe you are really confused by your strategy, and you dare not enter the city, since I have heard you talk about it, how can you be fooled?

immediately shouted: "Mr. Pei, where is Jun's qin?" Where is the child? If you don't let the old army sweep, how can you see your sincerity? He waved the long knife in his hand: "Don't doubt it, all the armies, this is an empty city, especially to confuse my ears." And follow me into the city, capture Pei Gai, Zhun Ru and others to slaughter, and don't seal the knife for three days! "Cat flutter Chinese
