Chapter 82: The Deflated Martial Arts
Wushu is really in a dilemma this time, even if he attacks Hutou Mountain like crazy, there won't be many people left to go back in the end. It's not okay to attack Yejiabao, there are so many people outside, if you don't guard against them, you will definitely sneak attack, and you have to use a lot of troops to defend it, so there are not many people who can attack Yejiabao.
It was impossible to go back like this, the prisoners were all rescued, and a large amount of their own supplies were not transported, and they relied on how much their own soldiers could transport.
Ye Chen looked down from Hutou Mountain, and the Wuhuan people did not move for the time being.
"Second brother, this Wuhuan people are now in a dilemma, I don't know what they will do next, I hope to retreat." Tai Shi Ci had just seen those captives, most of them had been subjected to inhuman treatment, and many women had been insulted, and he wanted to go down and destroy the Wuhuan people below, but he knew that if he didn't have this ability now, it would cause heavy casualties.
"No matter what, I have to protect them, as long as the Wuhuan people don't leave, I have to fight them to the end." The "they" Ye Chen said not only meant the captives behind, but also the people of the Ye family, as long as they had the ability, he would protect the entire Liaodong.
"Hutou, you go and let those captives have a full meal, and then let them move the stones, it turns out that there are a lot of stones in Hutou Mountain, you let them move to the gate of the cottage." Ye Chen didn't know if the Wuhuan people would attack, so he would defend himself first.
The day passed slowly, and the Wuhuan people did not attack and camped at the foot of the mountain.
Wushu didn't know that he had lost his temper a few times, and the little marshals under him were all called over by him and scolded.
Scolding and scolding, things still have to be resolved.
"Tell me what to do now." Wushu poured a sip of Du Kang wine and said.
"King, if we don't kill it back and level that Yejiabao, see if they dare to be arrogant."
"Idiot, if I could have beaten it, I would have fought it a long time ago, and I can wait until now, now they have three thousand people outside, and there must be many people defending in Yejiabao, where are we enough troops." Wushu slammed the bottle on the table and said angrily.
In fact, the Wuhuan people have a lot of troops at this time, more than 10,000, which is several times that of Ye Chen, but it is impossible to capture Yejiabao in a short time, and it will not be beneficial to them for a long time.
"The king, why don't we go and catch some Han people tomorrow and transport things back for us." Several people came up with a lot of ideas, none of which were available, and then a handsome man proposed.
"Well, this is okay, I'll send someone out tomorrow to arrest someone." It's not a way to spend it all the time, and Wushu has no choice but to do it.
Early the next morning, Ye Chen saw that the cavalry of the Wuhuan people was divided into many squads and scattered in all directions.
"Big brother, what are they going to do?" Tai Shici on Ye Chen's side.
Tai Shici shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”
"Oh no, they might be arresting someone." Ye Chen suddenly thought that the captives had been taken by them for a long time, and if the Wuhuan people wanted to go back, then they could only go to capture the captives again and help them transport things.
Tai Shi Ci was shocked in his heart, thinking that this was completely possible.
"Second brother, we have to find a way to stop them, otherwise we won't save this person in vain."
Yes, this just saved a group of people, which led to another group of people being arrested, isn't this a waste of savings.
"Zhou Nan, there are other ways to go down the mountain in this place." Ye Chen found Zhou Nan, he knew more about the situation here, so he asked him.
"Young master, this mountain is a cliff, but it is not high, if you hang it down with a rope, it is still possible, but you have to travel lightly."
In this way, there are not many people coming down the mountain, and they can't bring weapons, so it's impossible to sneak attack.
"Second brother, in this way, I will go down, and then go to Yun Chang and them, and then I will find a chance when I have soldiers and horses in hand."
On the same day, Tai Shici used vines to form a rope and went down the mountain. Tai Shi Ci searched for a long time before finding Guan Yu through the scouts, and at this time Guan Yu already knew that the Wuhuan people had gone out to arrest people again, but he was worried that the Wuhuan people would attack Hutou Mountain, and Ye Chen and they would be in danger, so he did not take large-scale action.
"Oh, Ziyi, why are you here, Brother Ye..."
"My second brother has no problem there, but the food is relatively small, and everything else is fine, even if the Wuhuan people send 100,000 people to besiege it for a short time, they can't break it."
What Tai Shici said Guan Yu was relieved.
"That's good, what is the matter with Ziyi coming?"
"My second brother and I guessed that the Wuhuan people might have to take prisoners and transport supplies again, so I hurried over to see if there was a chance to stop it."
"The Wuhuan people did go to capture the captives, and they were worried about your safety before, so they didn't dare to stay away from here, so they just sent people to monitor and didn't take action." Guan Yu explained the current situation to Tai Shici.
"Well, now that Hutou Mountain is fine, then we must stop them, and we can't let them continue to arrest people unscrupulously, otherwise our previous efforts will be in vain."
"Okay, Ziyi, then let's discuss and act." Guan Yu was also very angry that these aliens came to the Han Dynasty to burn, kill and loot, and commit all kinds of evil deeds.
After discussing it, the two went their separate ways, each with a group of cavalry.
Fifteen hundred people were divided into several teams by them, and it was impossible for all of them to be gathered together, because the land was vast and sparsely populated, with a village in the east and a village in the west, and only by scattering the people could they catch enough people.
Moreover, there are still a lot of people in short supply of these Wuhuan people, and they don't know how many days it will take to catch people, because these places have been looted by them before, and many of the living people have either fled to the city or to the mountains.
After losing their scruples, Guan Yu arranged two hundred people on the way back for the Wuhuan people, and the others dispersed.
Now these Wuhuan people are unlucky, they are all dozens of people, dozens of people are enough, but when they encounter the guard battalion, they only have a break, and most of the guard battalions adopt sneak attacks and surprise attacks.
Many people who went out to arrest people were intercepted and killed, and they were still in the village before, but they were coldly charged by the escort battalion, and dozens of people were cut down after a while because they dismounted and arrested people.
In some villages that have not yet been patronized by the Wuhuan people, the guard battalion first let the people hide, and then ambushed them, and when the Wuhuan people suddenly came out to arrest people, they killed them, and the Wuhuan people did not expect that there would be an ambush, and they were solved in three or two clicks.
You can't blame the Wuhuan people for not being vigilant at all, they dared to ransack a village before a few people, but now there are dozens of people, and they are still a village that has been ransacked by their own people, of course there is no problem.
The Wuhuan people were intercepted and killed a lot by the escort battalion, but they scattered too much, and there was no way to intercept them all, but it didn't matter, on the way back, Guan Yu arranged people, as long as they were found, they would notify the nearby team to intercept them, and the place near the Wuhuan camp before, Guan Yu also arranged two hundred people, and two hundred people were enough to deal with the scattered Wuhuan people.
But even so, the Wuhuan people still caught hundreds of people and came back, but a few hundred people were not enough, and at first Wushu just thought that these people were going out and being happy again.
Let them go into the village to rob and arrest people, how can they not do something, but as it gets later and later, Wushu also feels that something may have happened, but there are so many people who go out, if something happens, there should be news back.
What they don't know is that if the Wuhuan people are attacked, they will basically be wiped out, and few of them will be able to escape, even if they escape alone, Guan Yu will also arrange some people along the way, and it will not be easy to pass the news back.
When the person who came back came to report the situation, Wu Shu was so angry that he almost vomited blood, and he was deflated in Ye Chen, and he had already lost nearly 10,000 horses, and he was hurt.
Wushu really wanted to send troops to level Yejiabao, but he still had a trace of reason, knowing that he couldn't break through Yejiabao at this time, even if he barely broke it, he wouldn't have many people left.
Wushu had nowhere to go, so he hid in the tent and poured Du Kang wine, which he had snatched back before, and now he didn't know what to do except drink. Although he received the news and sent a large force of cavalry to exterminate these people, the news that came back killed dozens of them, and the rest fled.
The Wuhuan people don't know much about this area, and many of the guards in the guard camp go out from here, and they have also trained in these places, so they are very familiar with the terrain, and their horses are no worse than the Wuhuan people, so it is very easy to escape.
If you can't catch it, you can't catch it, and the Wuhuan people have a lot of materials on the road, and they can't transport it back, so they can't give up and be unwilling.
In the end, Wushu made a decision, that is, to send a large group of men and horses out to arrest people, as long as they did not disperse the other party, there was no way to take them, and Wushu also knew that the other party did not have many troops.
But you have a way, we have a more clever way, Guan Yu is divided into pieces, the horses are dispersed, the people are transferred in advance, and they are all arranged to the mountains, no matter how powerful this Wuhuan is, he will not dare to go up the mountain to arrest people, and the mountain is someone else's territory, these people who grew up in the grassland since childhood, it is good if they don't get lost in the mountains.
Wushu was deflated again, two days passed, and less than a thousand people were caught, and he didn't dare to let his warriors transport these things, otherwise the other party would come back with a sneak attack, and his own warriors probably didn't even have the ability to resist.
Even the deflated Wushu was about to go crazy, and someone simply told him that Ye Chen and the others did not have much material at the beginning, and as long as they surrounded it for a few days, the people on the mountain were estimated to run out of food.
Wushu thought about it and decided that it would better besiege them first, at least to win back a game.
