Chapter 198: Arrangement
"Hmmm! Han Sheng, let me ask you, if this mountain col where we are resting now, if it is to be used to hide soldiers, how many do you think it can be? ”
Without directly stating his plan, Han Yan opened his mouth and asked Huang Zhonglai.
"Well...... Huang Zhong turned around and looked at the col, then turned his head to look at the mountains on both sides, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Lord, if you want to fight, at least 50,000 soldiers and horses can be hidden in this col!" However, this mountain col is long and narrow, and it is difficult to say a specific number if you only hide soldiers. ”
"Fifty thousand? That's not a small number. However, have the soldiers in our army prepared winter clothes? ”
After thinking about it carefully, Han Yan felt that there shouldn't be much of a problem with his plan, so he asked another irrelevant question.
"Well...... It was ready, and each person prepared two sets, but because it was not yet time, the clothes were ready, but they were not distributed yet. Lord, you are ......"
I don't understand why Han Yan asked about clothes, but Huang Zhong still answered this question truthfully.
"Haven't distributed it yet? That's the best! After listening to Huang Zhong's answer, Han Yan's eyes lit up, and then he hurriedly said: "That's it, Yin Li!" Hurry up and tell you to go down and take out a batch of winter clothes to make the shape of a military flag. ”
"Yes! Lord! ”
I wanted to hear it clearly, but Han Yan had already given the order, and Yin Li had no choice but to do things first.
"The messenger, yes, that means you! I don't care what method you use, go back to the city before dark and tell your General Liu that you will abandon the city and break through tonight, and come this way! ”
The reason why Yin Li was taken away was because this matter could indeed only be done by him, and this messenger, Han Yan didn't want him to listen to his plan.
"This ...... Be! ”
After a moment's hesitation, as if something was sounding, the messenger had a resolute look on his face, and with a word of agreement, he left the col and went to the state and county.
After the messenger, the only outsider, left, Han Yan's expression relaxed, and he said: "Han Sheng, Chang Xuan, today's situation is special, just let the soldiers eat some dry food casually, don't do anything to make a fire or anything." Also, when the 'military flag' is ready, you can arrange for some people to carry the mountains on both sides of the military flag and wait until evening to erect the 'military flag' for me. Remember, this time can't be too late. But! It can't be sooner! ”
"Yes! Lord! ”
"Yes! Lord! ”
Huang Zhong and Chang Yan agreed in unison, and then followed Han Yan's gaze to the state and county.
Looking at the prefectures and counties that were still shrouded in war, Han Yan muttered to himself, "Liu Bei, if you can come out alive this time, it is your ability, and I, Han Yan, disdain to bully others, but in the future, hum!" ”
Han Yan's plan is so mysterious to say, but it's not unusual to really know it.
In the evening, the sky was dark, like a col, and among the trees on the hillside, but it was no longer possible to see anything. And at this time, on the slopes on both sides of the col where Han Yan rested, the 'military flags' were already full, and looking at the density of the 'military flags', it was said that there were twenty or thirty thousand people and horses.
According to Han Yan's conjecture, if Niu Fu was just a straw bale, then when Liu Bei abandoned the city and fled, Niu Fu chased beyond this mountain col and saw the 'military flag' all over the mountains, and he would retreat without a fight.
If Niu Fu is extremely smart or has muscles in his head, then Han Yan can only consider himself unlucky. Of course, Han Yan felt that these two extreme situations were unlikely, the former said that Niu Fu had never won the Baibo Yellow Turban Thief, and the latter was denied by his identity as the commander of the first army.
And in the most normal situation, if Niu Fu's talent is relatively average, then he will probably hesitate, and this hesitation time is actually enough for Han Yan to withdraw from the mountain col with his men and horses. After all, the road in the col is difficult, even Han Yan specially sent a group of people to explore the way before he dared to walk the col at night.
Of course, if that Niu Fu reacted when Han Yan retreated, then it would be okay not to chase, if it was to chase...... That can't be said to be Han Yan's ruthlessness.
The sun is setting, the sky is already dusk, and it is time for people to decide.
Niu Fu attacked the city, and it stopped as soon as dusk. At sunset, Niu Fu can also order people to light torches and fight hard, but although Niu Fu's men are not wine bags and rice bags, but after all, they are also flesh and blood, from sunrise to sunset, a total of five hours, Niu Fu's men have been on at least twice except for his guards, and after dusk, they can only withdraw their troops.
Collecting troops is collecting troops, and it can be seen that Niu Fu is not a stupid person, and the teams of people who stay to stare at the state and county are the best proof. It's just that those scouts are not too close to the state and county, and I don't know if it's because the situation near the city wall of the state and county is too miserable. Han Yan saw clearly on the side, thanks to the close proximity to Qinshui, this state and county were originally built along the water for the convenience of pedestrians, but now Niu Fu is attacking the city but cannot be surrounded on all sides, which is also a great luck in misfortune.
When the people were settled, halfway through the hour, suddenly the east gate of the state and county opened, and the black hole was like a beast with its mouth open in the dark.
I couldn't see what was going on from a distance, but a group of black shadows sped out from the east city gate and quickly came towards the col where Han Yan was. And just after this group of black shadows immediately went to the county, it didn't take long for a burst of fire to rise from the south city gate, and then I saw the south city gate open widely, and a group of people shouted from the south city gate and rushed to Niu Fu's military camp.
Han Yan's heart tightened, although he did not come to the scene in person, Han Yan could guess that this was the 'abandoned son' arranged by Liu Bei. What a Liu Bei! No wonder I was able to escape death several times! Han Yan's pupils narrowed in an instant.
Although Liu Bei had the advantage of the city wall in the first battle of the state and county, he had too few troops after all, which can be seen from the fact that there are not many people rushing to the Niu Fu base camp now. It's just that what Liu Bei never expected was that although the impact of these 'abandoned sons' failed to do anything to Niu Fu, it alarmed Niu Fu.
A team of hundreds, tens, or even hundreds, did not have much brightness in the night. But how many people are in Niu Fu's main formation? At least twenty thousand!
The torches used for the lighting of 20,000 people directly illuminated the land within a radius of several miles, and Liu Bei and others, who took the opportunity to escape, had not escaped from the scope of this lighting at this time.
