Chapter 200: The Scheme
Hearing Zhao Ziyu's words, the smile on Zhang Shihua's face couldn't help but become even richer. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Therefore, after this, Zhang Shihua couldn't help but nodded, and said to the generals under the tent: "In this case, our army will lure the enemy with deceitful tactics, and the generals who lure the enemy will ask Brother Donkey." ”
"I'll do as I was told!" Hearing Zhang Shihua's words, many generals under the account couldn't help but bow like this.
……
The next day, the time was still almost noon, in front of the camp gate of more than 10,000 officers and soldiers, two Han soldiers looked at the Red Turban Army camp that seemed extremely quiet opposite, and one of them couldn't help frowning and said: "Eh, it's strange, why don't you say this group of red turban thieves didn't come to call the battle today, you must know that in the first five days, this group of thieves blocked the door every day and scolded the formation." ”
However, when the other heard this, he snorted disdainfully and said, "Ma Laosan, isn't this nonsense." The red turban thief is not a fool, he has been here for five days, and we privy councillors don't fight them, and they can't come every day. ”
Ma Laosan: "Well, that's what I said. But it's okay if they don't come, I'm not so cheap in labor and management, and I'm willing to be scolded for playing. After saying this, Ma Laosan and the other person looked at each other, and couldn't help laughing casually.
But just when the two gatekeepers were giggling, Gong Buban stood on the camp wall, looking at the Red Turban Army camp that suddenly quieted down opposite, but he couldn't help but show a smile on his face.
On the third day, the camp of the Red Turban Army was still extremely quiet, and the soldiers on both sides were still silently facing each other like two stubborn stones.
On the fourth day, it was still the same. The silence for three consecutive days had already made all the officers and soldiers think that the Red Turban Army would not attack, but was ready to fight them. Therefore, their group of officers and soldiers couldn't help but relax the tight string in their minds at this time, and even became a little casual. However, in this regard, Gong Buban executed more than a dozen non-commissioned officers for dereliction of duty in a row, which stopped this trend and made all the officers and soldiers become nervous again.
And just like that, this strange time of calm finally passed for another day. It's the fifth day, but on the fifth day, things are finally different. Because on the fifth day, the originally extremely quiet camp of the Red Turban Army gradually began to riot.
The soldiers of the Red Turban Army, which had always been regarded as having good military discipline, not only began to neglect their duties, but even the invincible cavalry of the Red Turban Army began to wander around from time to time, plundering livestock and money and food from the hands of the people everywhere.
Seeing this scene, Gong Buban, who had always had a gloomy face, finally showed a smile on his face. "Obviously, the Red Turban Thieves are running out of rations." Seeing those cavalrymen who went out to collect food, Gong Buban couldn't help but think of it in his heart with a smile on his face.
Therefore, after thinking about this, Gong Buban couldn't help but smile and said aloud to the Wanhu official named Su He: "Su He, have you seen that the opportunity we have been waiting for is coming?" Look, in a few days, the red turban thieves will inevitably take the initiative to attack us because of the lack of food and grass. ”
"At that time, as long as we can defend instead of attack, we can hold on. The victor in this war is us. ”
However, as a pure martial artist, Su He can understand the twists and turns in this. Therefore, when Gong Buban said such a thing to him abruptly, he couldn't help but secretly slander in his heart: "Yes, Gong Buban didn't fall for the magic of some red turban thief." It's such nonsense. ”
And looking at Su He's disapproving appearance, Gong Buban naturally knew that this guy didn't listen to what he just said at all.
But seeing this, Gong Buban, who was in a very good mood, didn't care, and he didn't explain anything to this reckless man who was full of muscles. Just glanced at Su He, who was disapproving, and then Gong Buban returned to his big tent with his hands behind his back and his brisk figure-eight steps.
And so it was, and another three days passed. During these three days, the cavalry under Zhang Shihua's command went out to collect food more and more frequently, and the number of people who went out became more and more numerous. However, the cavalry brought less and less of it, and the smoke rising from the camps of the Red Turbans became less and less faint.
"Obviously, the Red Turban Army really doesn't have much military rations." Looking at the Red Turban barracks, there was only one-half of the amount of cooking smoke in the past, and Gong Buban couldn't help but think of it in his heart with great confidence.
"Your Majesty, you have sent an envoy to urge you again, do you want to send him away as usual." Just when Gong Buban was rejoicing in his heart that the Red Turban Army was about to run out of food, the words of a pro-guard soldier pulled Gong Buban back to reality again.
And Gong Buban, who heard the words of the guard, couldn't help frowning, and secretly thought to himself: "This person is also the first, it is really a waste, with an army of 100,000 for nothing, and the time is November, but even a little red turban bandit can't deal with it." ”
But when he was thinking about this, Gong Buban obviously forgot about it. Because if he really said so, then he probably wouldn't be as good as others. After all, no matter what, he didn't lose his troops like Gong Buban like him first.
Of course, let's not talk about this for now. It was only said that after Gong Buban heard the words of his personal guard, he was surprisingly confident and said to the personal guard under his command: "No need, you go down and tell the messenger that within seven days, this privy council will be able to defeat the thief of Nanyang in one fell swoop." So that you don't have to worry so much. ”
"Hmm!" Hearing Gong Buban's confident words, the pro-guard who was kneeling on the ground couldn't help but raise his head in surprise. However, although he was surprised in his heart, after coming back to his senses, the soldier who was kneeling on the ground still said at the first time: "The subordinates understand, and the subordinates will bring your words to your lordship." ”
After saying this, the soldier slowly retreated with a respectful face.
And after the pro-guard retreated, Gong Buban's face couldn't help but return to its former calm. Every move gives people the feeling of holding a pearl of wisdom.
At the same time, in Zhang Shihua's Chinese military tent, Zhang Shihua was also discussing tomorrow's important military affairs with Zhao Jiu and Zhao Ziyu, who had faintly become the first think tank under Zhang Shihua.
Zhang Shihua, who was sitting on the main seat, looked at Zhao Jiu under the tent with a smile on his face, and couldn't help but say loudly: "Brother Donkey, after our army used Ziyu's strategy for a few days, we found that more than 10,000 officers and soldiers in the opposite camp were preparing for war all day long. ”
Obviously, Ziyu's plan has worked. Therefore, early tomorrow morning, I will prepare you to lead two thousand men and horses against the Tartar camp, and take advantage of the opportunity to use a plan of deceit. Therefore, it can be said that tomorrow our army will win or lose, but it will all be up to you, donkey brother. ”
"Your Excellency General, please rest assured, the last general is willing to make a military order here, and tomorrow's battle will not spoil your plan." Hearing Zhang Shihua's words, Zhao Jiu under the tent couldn't help but clench his fists with a serious face and said.
And after hearing Zhao Jiu's confident words, Zhang Shihua couldn't help but laugh and shout hello. And after applauding, he looked at Zhao Jiu's resolute face, smiled at Zhao Jiu and said, "Brother Donkey, although you and I are not related, the friendship between you and me is like brothers." ”
"Tomorrow, as long as you can win this battle. So as long as I Zhang Shihua has it, what you donkey brother wants, I will give you. ”
Hearing Zhang Shihua's sincere words, Zhao Jiu couldn't help but kneel on the ground with gratitude, and said loudly to Zhang Shihua with slightly red eyes: "The general treats the last general like a brother, and rewards the last general's land and beautiful house, the last general is already grateful, how dare he ask the general for anything else." ”
"Hey, donkey brother, what are you talking about? How can you not reward you for your hard work, you are five years older than me, but you have no heirs, if you return victorious, you will be rewarded with some beautiful women who can give birth to you? ”
"This ......" Hearing Zhang Shihua's joking words, Zhao Jiu couldn't help but suddenly become unspeakable, and he didn't know what to say.
And Zhang Shihua couldn't help laughing when he saw him like this.
And Zhao Ziyu on the other side saw Zhao Jiu standing in front of him unspeakably, and his eyes couldn't help flashing with a touch of envy. Because he knew that he couldn't compare to Zhao Jiu's status in Zhang Shihua's heart no matter what.
……
Early the next morning, Gong Buban, who was eating in the beautiful Chinese army tent, suddenly heard the anxious footsteps of a personal guard under his command walking towards him.
However, after hearing this voice, Gong Buban did not turn around, his face was still calm, and he ate the last bit of exquisite food in the dishes with confidence. And the moment he put down his chopsticks, he also heard the anxious words of the guard behind him.
"Report to the Privy Councillor, thousands of red turban thieves outside the camp are coming towards our camp."
And hearing such words, Gong Buban, who was full of food and drink, couldn't help but show a reserved aristocratic smile on his face. "They're finally here. Come, go with this privy councillor and meet them. After saying this, he saw that Gong Buban ignored the soldier who was kneeling on the ground, and walked out of the tent with such a brisk step.
And at the same time, outside the barracks of officers and soldiers. Zhao Jiu was also leading the two thousand soldiers under his command, shouting "kill the Tartars" and marching neatly towards the camp of more than 10,000 officers and soldiers.
Although it is said that the number of officers and men at this time was five or six times that of the Red Turban Army, the recent major defeats had a great impact on this group of officers and men. Therefore, when they saw the 2,000 officers and soldiers coming towards them, these officers and soldiers who were holding the battalion couldn't help but feel their legs tremble slightly.
But fortunately, these officers and soldiers at least still have fighting spirit. Because according to their general, this group of red turban thieves has run out of food, and now they are just returning to the light and fighting the trapped beasts. The generals said that as long as they could resist their attack this time, their side would be considered a winner.
And as long as they can defeat this group of red turban thieves, then in order to reward them for this group of heroes, the privy councillor will allow them not to seal the sword for three days.
"No swords for three days" As soon as they thought of such a beautiful prospect, this group of officers and soldiers couldn't help but hold the sabers in their hands closer. After all, in this day and age, is there anything more exciting for officers and soldiers than legal robbery?
"Kill the Tartar!" Just when this group of officers and soldiers were thinking like this in their hearts, the two thousand red turban soldiers outside the main camp were also shouting to kill the Tartars under the command of Zhao Jiu, and rushed towards the opposite battalion of officers and soldiers. And Gong Buban, who watched the red turban thieves outside the camp killing, stood on the wall of the camp to personally supervise the battle and boost morale, and couldn't help shouting: "Archer, release the arrows!" ”
Hearing Gong Buban's order, the standard-bearer behind Gong Buban immediately waved the big flag in his hand and gave the order to release arrows to the grassroots generals who commanded the battle on the front line.
And the various grassroots generals who saw the order of the general banner also immediately roared, and the order of Gong Buban to release arrows was transmitted to the ears of every archer.
Then, I saw a rain of arrows, densely shooting towards the red turban thieves who were killed outside the camp.
However, this was an attack by the Red Turban Army to "return to the light", and how could such an attack be repelled by officers and soldiers with weapons that did not have much lethality, such as arrows. So, after thousands of archers had fired two waves of arrows, some of the bravest Red Turban soldiers roared to the barracks.
A long ladder used to break the camp was erected outside the wall of the camp of officers and soldiers, and a red turban sergeant in armor also shouted at the officers and soldiers in the barracks.
The bloody and cruel white-knuckle battle suddenly broke out in this area, and the blood dyed the barracks built by the officers and soldiers red even faster.
"Kill the thief!" Su He, who was an officer and soldier, roared, and with the two special iron halberds in his hands, he killed a red turban sergeant who rushed towards him in one fell swoop. Immediately, the blood of the red-turban sergeant splattered all over him.
And Su He, who was covered in blood, was even more like a madman, with dozens of brave armored soldiers under his command, roaring towards the other red turban soldiers.
And seeing that Su He, the Tartar general on the side of the mad demon, led his troops to kill, but the rest of the red turban soldiers also seemed to be frightened by him, and hundreds of red turban soldiers did not dare to face Su He and dozens of them. Even after being killed by Su He and the others, this group of Red Turban soldiers was repelled by Su He.
Seeing this, Suhe, a Tartar general with a head full of muscles, couldn't help but become even more crazy. After repelling a group of more than 100 red turban sergeants, he directly led more than 100 brave officers and soldiers from the flank of the camp and rushed straight to Zhao Jiu, who was commanding the battle outside the camp.
