Chapter 2045: The Defeat of the Vanguard Army (Part I) (Page 1/1)

"General Li, you can order the flying cavalry to investigate the situation along the way, and you don't need to probe too far away." Zhao Yundao.

Li Yan nodded yes, but he was a little uneasy in his heart, the control of intelligence on the battlefield plays a vital role for a large army, and if you can't control the enemy's situation, it is very likely that the situation will be a surprise attack by the enemy.

Lu Bu led the army to fight, and experienced many battles, including a lot of vicious battles, and after arriving in Yizhou, he achieved successive victories, and the generals in the army did not think that the enemy dared to send a large army to intercept it in this situation.

"General, the front is Minghe Mountain, after passing Minghe Mountain, it only takes half a day's journey to reach Ruo County." Zhang Rendao.

"General Zhang, what's so special about Minghe Mountain?" Zhao Yun asked, Zhang Ren has been in Shuzhong for many years and has a deeper understanding of the terrain in Shuzhong.

Zhang Rendao: "Minghe Mountain, although it is not dangerous, but there is a road, which is the only way to go to Luoxian, and the road in between, only allows two carriages to go in parallel, if the enemy army sets up an ambush on the mountains on both sides, it will be dangerous." ”

"Tell the army, stop moving!" Zhao Yun ordered.

When the vanguard received the order, it immediately stopped.

Then Zhao Yun ordered the soldiers in the army to choose a high and low place to camp and lead more than ten cavalry towards Minghe Mountain.

Looking at a road in the middle of the mountain, Zhao Yun frowned, the mountains on both sides are very high, if you want to fully explore the situation on the mountain, even if the two thousand troops are dispatched together, they will not be able to complete it in two days, and their own army has already set off from Mianzhu, as the vanguard army is to clear the obstacles for the advance of the army.

"General Zhang, in your opinion, will the enemy army set up an ambush on Minghe Mountain?" Zhao Yun asked suddenly.

Zhang Rendao: "If it is Zhang, there will definitely be an ambush, after a series of defeats in Yizhou Army, it needs a victory to improve the morale of the soldiers in the army, although the enemy has experienced a lot of defeats, the most important thing in Yizhou is the advantage of the terrain, our army came from afar, and the Yizhou Army is waiting for work, and under the sudden attack, our army will definitely be damaged." ”

"Minghe Mountain is extremely difficult to explore, I don't know what General Zhang's good plan is?" Zhao Yundao.

"There is a team in the vanguard army, which is composed of Qiang people, who walk in the mountains all year round, and the speed of probing intelligence will definitely be faster." Zhang Ren suggested.

"In General Zhang's words." Zhao Yun said with a smile, the Qiang people have lived in the mountains and forests since they were children, and they can walk freely in the mountains and forests, which is far from being comparable to ordinary soldiers.

"General Zhang Ren is responsible for probing the situation of the enemy army, and the stakes are very high, and there must be no negligence." When the Qiang soldiers gathered, Zhao Yun admonished.

"Whoa." Zhang Ren hugged his fist.

"Strive for our army to be able to pass through Minghe Mountain tomorrow." Zhao Yun said in a low voice.

Zhang Ren nodded, but he was not very sure in his heart, if he was given two days, it would be enough to turn over Minghe Mountain, and the vanguard army could not do too much delay, and after two days, I am afraid that his army has already come to the foot of Minghe Mountain.

More than 1,000 Qiang people divided into two groups and headed towards the peaks on both sides, and their mission was to investigate the situation of Minghe Mountain.

At nightfall, the Qiang soldiers returned to the camp, but they did not find the slightest trace, and there was no trace of the enemy on Minghe Mountain, not even any signs of enemy activities.

Zhao Yun pondered: "Could it be that the Yizhou army is really afraid of our army, and when they saw our army coming, they didn't dare to set up an ambush on the way?" ”

"Maybe so, Liu Bei's time in charge of Yizhou is still short, the Yizhou army has not experienced many wars, and when facing war, they will be afraid, so Liu Bei's most important thing at present is to appease the soldiers in the army."

The next day, Zhao Yun ordered the vanguard army to continue to move forward, but he did not relax on the situation on the peaks on both sides, and still sent the Qiang soldiers to investigate the news.

The front army had just passed through the road of Minghe Mountain, and drums suddenly sounded on both sides, and dense black shadows appeared on the mountain peaks.

"The army retreats!" Zhao Yun was shocked when he saw this, and the most important thing at this time was to let his own army minimize the losses.

Although the Chang'an army's movements were very fast, the boulders on the mountain fell quickly, and under the boulders, the Chang'an army wailed all over the field, and the two thousand soldiers of the front army were directly blocked on the other side of Minghe Mountain.

Just when Zhao Yun led the Chang'an army to prepare to retreat, rumbling horses' hooves suddenly sounded on both sides, but it was Zhang Fei who led the cavalry to kill, in fact, last night Zhao Yun led the army to be stationed not far from Minghe Mountain, Zhang Fei thought about a raid in the middle of the night, but after getting the order from Zhuge Liang to secretly send someone to pass the order, Zhang Fei held back.

If tens of thousands of archers were to be deployed on the left and right of Minghe Mountain, the damage to the Chang'an army would be greater, but Zhuge Liang understood that with Zhao Yun's cautious character, he would definitely not give the Yizhou army too many opportunities, so there were not many soldiers arranged on the peak, only two hundred.

Two hundred men are nothing on a battlefield of tens of thousands, but when they appear on the mountain peaks, they can inflict heavy losses on the enemy.

The Qiang soldiers who were exploring the situation of the peaks on both sides heard the shouting and killing sound from the peaks, and after being slightly stunned, their hearts were full of anger, they were the elite army under the Jin King's account, how could they have suffered such humiliation, and the Qiang soldiers were responsible for investigating the situation on the battlefield, but at this time the army was attacked by the enemy.

There were a total of 200 soldiers on the peaks on both sides, and in the face of the fierce Qiang soldiers, even though these Yizhou soldiers were the elite of the army, they were quickly overwhelmed by the Qiang soldiers.

Zhang Fei led the cavalry to kill, so that the soldiers in the Chang'an army were even more confused, since the Chang'an army conquest, in the cavalry has always been in an advantage, among the princes is even more prestigious, at this time in the face of the enemy's surprise attack and the sudden appearance of the cavalry, they will also have panicked emotions.

"Where's the Flying Rider? Kill the enemy with General Ben! Zhao Yun suddenly shouted, such a situation occurred on the battlefield, and he had an unshirkable responsibility as the chief general in the army.

Although the success of this enemy raid has a lot to do with the unfamiliarity of the Chang'an army with the terrain, if you wait for two more days, the enemy can only retreat, which is also related to the particularity of the vanguard army.

The Chinese army has five hundred flying horses, which is one of the strongest forces in the vanguard army, Zhao Yun led the flying cavalry to fight, so that the cavalry of the Yizhou army will inevitably have some panic, since the battle with Lu Bu, the cavalry of the Yizhou army has deeply experienced the power of the flying horse.
