Chapter 223: A plan to lure the troops Ambush Karasuma
In fact, when the news of the defeat of Guo Yuan's army reached Xiangping, some subordinates suggested that 10,000 light cavalry be sent to meet Guo Yuan, although Liu Bao's troops were brave and lacked light cavalry, tens of thousands of troops faced 10,000 light cavalry, the odds of victory were not high, even if Liu Bao could not be defeated, it was still possible to stop Liu Bao in Wenxian County and south of Anshi.

Yuan Xi did not allow it, Yuan Xi believed that Liu Shi's army had fought against the Xiongnu for a long time, and was good at dealing with light cavalry, so he could not take risks. Moreover, Liu Shi also has a building boat army on the Liao River, and once it lands, Xiangping will also be threatened.
Yuan Xi was right, Liu Shi learned a lesson from the battle of Gongsun Zhanpanhe and Ju Yi's Xiandeng warriors outwitted Baima Yicong, not only training light cavalry to prevent the first warrior's breaking battle, but also training infantry to fight against light cavalry.
There are such foot soldiers in Liu Bao's troop, and I dare not say that all of them are left, and it is still possible to lose one of these light horses.
Light cavalry against foot soldiers is nothing more than projectile, speed.
Liu Shi has been in Chang'an for a few years, let people develop a hand crossbow, but it is much stronger than the ordinary hand crossbow, the range is also far, the non-strong can not be used, the most terrible thing is that it can be fired continuously, this kind of foot soldier, each person has a big shield, a hand crossbow, this kind of person is equipped in the Yongzhou army or the Yongnu army, this time Liu Bao brought a thousand.
However, if this thing wants to attack the light horse, the effect is not great, the main thing is that it is stupid, it can't go fast, and it can only be passively ambushed.
Liu Bao didn't dare to be careless when he heard that Xiangping had 10,000 light cavalry, but spent time rectifying and training the new troops, and sent someone to get in touch with Gan Ning, waiting for a joint attack with Liu Shi.
Yuan Shang regrets it now, he shouldn't be greedy for more than a dozen building boats and provoke Liu Shi, but if he wants to conquer Lelang, it is difficult to have no building boats.
Liu Shi led more than 40,000 troops to open roads in the mountains and build bridges in the water, and came out of Lulongsai to look at Liucheng, and was not discovered until he was about to arrive in Liucheng.
This is not that Yuan Shang, Mudun and others did not go to search, but Liu Shi had been prepared for this kind of search, and all the Karasuma people, Han people, and Xianbei people he saw were all detained and brought together, and all those who escaped were shot.
Yuan Shang did not dare to underestimate Liu Shi, and prepared an army of 50,000 for Liu Shi, 20,000 light cavalry, and 30,000 foot soldiers, led by Yuan Shang, Collapsed, Nanlou, and Wufuyan, and waited in Liucheng, and Gao Gan led 20,000 troops to stay in the subject country of Liaodong.
Yuan Shang can easily capture Liaodong County, but it can only be said that Gongsun Kang is too tender.
Yuan Shang just came to Liaodong, just when Gongsun Du was seriously ill, Gongsun Du also asked Gongsun Kang to pay attention to Yuan Shang, thinking that these sons of the family, especially the Yuan family, had nothing good, but unfortunately, Gongsun Kang did not take it to heart.
As soon as Yuan Shang came, he made friends with the soldiers, rectified the soldiers of Yangle and Liaodong, visited Gongsun Du, went to Xiangping several times to visit the seriously ill Gongsun Du, and deliberately contacted Gongsun Kang.
Not long after Yuan Shang came, Gongsun Du died, and Yuan Shang assisted Gongsun Kang in dealing with Gongsun Du's funeral affairs in the name of condolences, and lived in Xiangping for a while.
During this period of time, Yuan Shang changed his previous low profile and made friends with the clans of Xiangping City and various counties in eastern Liaodong.
When Gongsun Du was there, he suppressed the family and Haoqiang, and killed a lot of wealthy families, and the entire wealthy family of Liaodong trembled and frightened Gongsun Du, Yuan Shang inherited his father's style, with a gentle appearance and kindness, bringing hope to those wealthy families, and secretly allied between the two sides, Gongsun Kang was sad after losing his father, although someone reminded him to pay attention to Yuan Shang, saying that he was too close to the Liaodong family. But Gongsun Kang didn't pay much attention to it, he thought that Yuan Shang was a kind person, how could a person with the style of an elder do such an unrighteous thing?
One night in the month after Gongsun Du's death, Yuan Shang suddenly attacked Xiangping, and Gongsun Kang escaped only under the death protection of several subordinates, and then went to entangle the tribe.
To Gongsun Kang's disappointment, many of the tribes were thrown into Yuan Shang, and Gongsun Kang was only able to recruit more than 20,000 people. Some people suggested asking Liu Shi for help, or joining forces with Liu Shi, because this Yuan Shang had seized more than a dozen of Liu Shi's ships.
There are also humanitarians: "Liu Shi is strong, and fighting with Liu Shi is no different from seeking skin with the tiger, so it is better to find another way, or join forces with Xianbei to drive Yuan Shang out of Liaodong and Liaoxi."
Some people think that joining forces with the Xianbei people is the real tiger skin, Liu Shi is a Hussar General of the Han Dynasty after all, now Liu Shi occupies Youzhou, with heavy troops, even if he does not come now, he will definitely come to Liaodong in the future, it is better to ally with it, after capturing Liaodong, Liaodong and Liaoxi will be divided.
The person who made this suggestion was none other than Ryoshige.
Gongsun Kang was now driven out of Xiangping by Yuan Shang, and the entire Liaodong was taken away, and he was currently only Pan Han temporarily living between Liaodong and Lelang. No matter how bad it is, how bad can it be? Maybe it will attract Liu Shi, and when they lose both, they will have another fisherman to profit.
Gongsun Kang discussed with the strategists for a long time, and decided to send Liang Mao to Youzhou to find Liu Shi and attack Yuan Shang together.
Liu Shi had no intention of joining forces with Gongsun Kang, and at this time he sat on a big rock and listened to the report of the secret agent who had just returned.
"Zilong! Hyozhi, what do you think? Liu Shi looked at Zhao Yun and Fa Zheng and asked.
Fa Zheng glanced at Zhao Yun and said first: "Karasuma and Yuan Shangbu are each divided into a camp, and they are far apart, as long as we defeat the Karasuma Department's 20,000 light cavalry, Yuan Shangbu will be able to handle it." ”
Zhao Yun looked at Fa Zheng for a moment, and then looked at Liu Shi: "Seeing that the Karasuma people are camped, they obviously don't think that we have 30,000 light horsemen. It would not be impossible if we had gone down the mountain with foot soldiers and set up camp and waited for the Karasuma people to harass us, and our light cavalry would suddenly come out and ambush the Karasuma light cavalry and divide and destroy it. ”
"Good! According to Zilong's, Zilong and I went to ambush, and Xiaozhi camped at the foot of the mountain with his foot soldiers as bait. But don't let the Karasuma people break through the camp! ”
Zhao Yun was a little worried: "Lord! Let Peng Hu and I go to ambush, and the lord and filial piety will guard the camp. ”
Liu Shi smiled: "Are you worried that the Karasuma people will be bad for me? ”
Zhao Yun said: "No! As the lord of the three armies, the lord must not risk arrows lightly. ”
Liu Shi shook his head and said: "This battle is extremely important, whether you can take Liaodong, in this battle, Zilong doesn't need to say much, I and you will each lead an army, and when the Karasuma people are dispatched, they will immediately surround it, try to kill and injure the Karasuma people as much as possible, and deter Yuan Shangbu."
Zhao Yun knew that he couldn't say it, so he had to agree.
Fa Zheng and Peng Hu took 10,000 foot soldiers to leave the mountain five miles, and saw the Karasuma people attacking like thunder, Fa Zheng immediately commanded the foot soldiers to move the antlers out and set them up into several layers, the archers hid behind the antlers, and the pikemen looked at the Karasuma light horse with their eyes tightly, these pikemen are different from ordinary pikemen, the spears in their hands are more than twice as long as ordinary spears, and when the Karasuma people come up, they will stab at the war horse, to be precise, waiting for the war horse to take the initiative to pounce on the tip of the spear, those pikemen just hold it with their hands, and wait for the war horse to pick it up when it comesand align it.
