"That is to say, the enemy army has about 3,500 men, and our army still has 800 cavalry. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoBut if Guo Shicong is determined to stick to this, we are afraid that we will not be able to help him in a short time! The effect of continuing to harass them will not be too great, and when Guo Shi is tired enough from them, I am afraid that the reinforcements sent by Tian Yan will also arrive. Hou Zan smiled bitterly.

Now that the forces of Tianyu on the Guangde side are dominant, and there are still 5,000 people left in Xuanzhou City, it is very possible to send some troops to meet them.

"That is to say, we must take down Guo Shifu as soon as possible, otherwise we will have no chance when the enemy's reinforcements arrive." Yang Wu frowned, this task is a bit difficult, if it is a strong attack, I am afraid that the casualties will not be small.

After pondering for a while, Yang Wu suddenly asked, "What if we leave some people here to continue to harass Guo Shifu, so that the enemy army thinks that the main force of our army is still here and ready to attack at any time, while the rest of us ambush and raid the reinforcements sent by Tian Yan?" ”

"This ......" Hou Zan was stunned, the Guo master here had not been eliminated, but he turned around and attacked Tian Yan's reinforcements, this is too risky, right?

"The number of people sent by Tian Yan to meet them should not be too small, they know that our cavalry is here, and they must be carefully guarded along the way, and it will be difficult to ambush them!" Hou Zan shook his head and said.

"It's hard, but it's not without opportunities. Now that Guo Shicong is stubbornly waiting for reinforcements, they don't have much food and grass, so if Tian Yan sends someone to meet them, the speed of the march will definitely not be slow, which gives us a certain opportunity. What's more, Tian Yan's reinforcements certainly know that we are all cavalry and will guard against a surprise attack by our army, but what if we set up an ambush not far from Xuanzhou City? Yang Wu said with a smile.

"Set up the ambush site not far from Xuanzhou City?" This time Hou Zan was even more surprised than just now, after all, there would definitely be no shortage of enemy scouts around Xuanzhou, and it was likely to be discovered by the enemy army in advance, and it was not easy to ambush him.

However, after thinking about it, Hou Zan felt that there was a certain feasibility, after all, the more he placed the ambush in an impossible place, the more he could be surprised, not to mention that his side was all cavalry, even if he was discovered by the enemy, he couldn't help himself.

"The last general thinks that the idea of the prince is too whimsy, but it sounds like there are some possibilities, and the last general thinks that he can give it a try."

Yang Wu just said that casually, but he didn't expect to get Hou Zhan's support, and immediately thought about it carefully.

Running outside the city of Xuanzhou to ambush the enemy army is like running to the door of someone's house to smash someone's things when there are people in the house, and if you are not careful, you will be discovered.

However, after a certain island country attacked a certain port in the future, the Citigroup country on the other side of the ocean also took the risk of sending an aircraft carrier close to the island country to bomb in order to boost morale.

Yang Wu feels that as long as he is careful, he may not be unable to succeed.

Thinking of this, Yang Wu immediately ordered: "After lunch, the whole army will gather outside the camp of Guo Shi and put pressure on them, lest they do anything after our main force leaves!" ”

……

Outside the city of Guangde, inside the camp.

"Rubbish! It's all a bunch of rubbish! Seeing the messenger sent by Master Guo for help, Tian Yan couldn't help but be angry. These days, Taimeng led his army to confront him in Guangde and never fought.

Although Tian Yan had a slightly larger number of troops, he did not have any advantages, so he patiently wanted to wait for Guo Shicong to lead the army to join them before launching an attack. Who knew that after so many days, the news he received was that Guo Shicong was defeated and now he was stubbornly waiting for help between Wuhu and Xuanzhou, which made him not angry.

In addition to cursing Guo Shifu, Tian Yan was also a little annoyed with Wang Tan and Wang Jian, and when they were dedicated to defense, they also needed to leave 15,000 troops before they dared to confront Li Shenfu.

However, scolding and scolding, now that the grain and grass of Guo Shi's service have been burned, the remaining surplus grain will not last long, and someone must be sent to answer it as soon as possible.

However, if you send troops from Guangde, not to mention that your own side will be weakened, it will be a little too late in time, and from here you need to go to Xuanzhou and then go north to Guo's camp, and this detour time will not be so abundant. Therefore, Tian Yan finally decided to send 3,000 people from the troops left behind in Xuanzhou.

A day later, an infantry force of 3,000 men set out from Xuanzhou, led by Zhang Jiasheng.

At the beginning of the defeat of Tianyan in the Battle of Guangde, many generals were captured by the Huainan army, but Zhang Jiasheng was lucky enough to escape back to Xuanzhou. However, because of the defeat in that battle, Zhang Jiasheng is not very much used by Tian Yan now, and he was left in Xuanzhou during this time, but he didn't expect to encounter such an errand and had to go into battle again.

"General, how much you were used under the command of the marshal, I didn't expect that it was just Guangde who was snubbed as soon as he was defeated, this time the generals were all idle at home, and now they have been sent a thankless task, and the last generals feel worthless for the general!" Zhang Jiasheng's lieutenant said with some dissatisfaction.

In his opinion, the responsibility for the last defeat mainly lies with Tian Yan's own light enemy, Zhang Jiasheng, who led the army to fight Mi Zhicheng in the middle of the road, although he was at a disadvantage, but he also collapsed at the last moment, and finally returned to Xuanzhou with a thousand remnants. Unexpectedly, Tian Yan finally attributed the responsibility for the defeat to his generals, and even Zhang Jiasheng was unlucky, so his deputy general was not worth it.

"Okay, don't say more, let's do this errand well, as long as it is done well, it may not be possible to reuse the marshal!" Zhang Jiasheng shook his head and said, but the dullness on his face showed that he was also a little unhappy in his heart.

The deputy general couldn't help but understand his expression, he turned around and looked around, and saw that the guards next to him were also far away, so he whispered: "General, in the opinion of the last general, the situation of the commander is not very good now, he has not won a battle since the beginning of the war, and the same is true for the envoy Jun of Runzhou; and Zhu Yuanjun of Shouzhou heard that he was also an ally of Jieshuai, but he was killed before he could raise his army. The current situation ......" Speaking of this, the adjutant general couldn't help but shake his head, obviously not very optimistic.

Zhang Jiasheng frowned and said, "What do you mean by this?" ”

"In the opinion of the last general, why don't the general just vote over there?" The lieutenant asked tentatively.

Zhang Jiasheng's face sank and said: "Presumptuous, you dare to say this kind of thing?" Don't the family members who stayed in Xuanzhou want it? ”

However, Zhang Jiasheng never mentioned the matter of serving Tian Yan, only saying that the family who stayed in Xuanzhou obviously did not have much idea of loyalty to Tian Yan, but was worried that his family would have to continue to work for Tian Yan.

The adjutant general didn't dare to say much, so he promised for a while, and then fell silent for a while.

Not long after, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and the adjutant general couldn't help frowning, "Where are so many cavalry coming from around here?" Aren't the cavalry of the marshal all in Guangde? ”

"It's not good, it's a sneak attack by the Huainan Army!" Zhang Jiasheng was shocked.
