Chapter 580: Dingxi Liang (8)

Before Li Heng finished speaking, Du Yang patted his chest and said confidently: "I will take my head off and be a night pot!" ”

"Good! It's up to General Du then! ”

Speaking of which, he still can't send troops at the moment, but fortunately, Li Heng said the deadline, which made Du Yang feel better.

***********

Due to the stalemate in the war, Luo Yi did not camp alone, and came to rendezvous with Luo Tong with 10,000 troops, and camped five miles away from Luo Tong's iron cavalry, that is, about ten miles away from the enemy's camp.

"Good news, great news, great news." Outside the camp, Pan Long's voice was heard.

With a burst of laughter, Pan Long ran in.

Luo Yi asked, "What's the good news?" ”

In the tent, in addition to Luo Yi, there were more than a dozen generals such as Sun Jian and Luo Tong.

Pan Long handed Luo Yi a letter in his hand, and said with a smile: "Just now Sun Yu came with news that he had defeated Cao Qin's 20,000 iron cavalry and was leading the rest of the soldiers and horses to come. ”

"Oh? Is this true?! ”

Luo Yi was taken aback, and quickly took the fold over.

Luo Tong and Sun Jian were all amazed.

In the impression of the two, Sun Yu is a somewhat reckless general, and he doesn't seem to have any talent to lead troops, so how can he clean up Cao Qin, you must know that Cao Qin can have 20,000 iron horses in his hands.

Luo Yi finished reading the recital and laughed: "Okay! I really didn't look at the wrong person, Sun Yu is good! ”

Luo Tong asked, "How did he win?" ”

Luo Yi smiled and said: "Speaking of which, Cao Qin is also incompetent; Sun Yu set up six large camps on a plain, Cao Qin attacked one by one, consuming a large number of troops, after that, Sun Yu attacked Cao Qin's military camp, Cao Qin was defeated, and all 20,000 iron cavalry were annihilated. ”

"What about Cao Qin?"

Luo Yi smiled and said, "Cao Qin? What else does he care? Such a general, leaving it to Li Heng will only harm him. ”

"In short, after eliminating 20,000 iron cavalry of the Xiliang soldiers, Sun Yu won a great victory, which is worthy of praise! When they return to Longxi, the officials should give due rewards. ”

Sun Jian said: "Now that there are no 20,000 iron horsemen, and General Sun Yu is surrounding, Li Heng will become a turtle in the urn." Wait for another month, he will run out of food and grass, and he will definitely go out of the camp to fight, as long as I can grasp the opportunity and defeat Li Heng, his 120,000 soldiers and horses will fall apart. ”

"With all due respect, do you think you can really defeat Li Heng, but I feel that it seems to be very difficult." Suddenly, Luo Tong shook his head and said.

Sun Jian sighed lightly: "General Luo, I remember that you swore some time ago that you could defeat Li Heng, why are you saying this now?" ”

Luo Daodao: "It's not a secret, these days, I have confronted Li Heng, I know his methods, I have been looking for more than half a month, but I have not found a chance to attack his camp." ”

"Therefore, if you want to defeat him, it is not as simple as the comparison of strength."

"Even if it's a comparison of strength, with our current strength, we may not be able to beat him!"

Sun Jian was stunned, he didn't expect that even Luo Tong would retreat.

"Lord, I don't think Li Heng is terrible!" Sun Jian is the way.

Luo Yi asked, "Then tell me, why is he not scary?" ”

Sun Jian said: "First, he has no iron cavalry under his command, and his field strength is greatly reduced. Second, Li Heng confronted General Luo for half a month, but did not go out of the camp to fight, which shows that he was afraid of General Luo from the bottom of his heart, and he was cowardly before fighting, and he would definitely be defeated; Third, he is now besieged by our army, and he only has less than two months of grain and grass, as long as we do a good job of defense in time and do not let him break out, when he runs out of food and grass, he will collapse without a fight. Either way, he had no chance of winning. ”

"What we have to do now is to besiege Li Heng and trap him here completely!!"

After analysis, the generals ignited their confidence.

Luo Yi was silent for a while, nodded and said, "That makes sense!" Generals, we should not be afraid of Li Heng, but he should be afraid of us! ”

"After Sun Yujun arrives, we will discuss countermeasures, and strictly monitor Li Heng's camp, so that he cannot break through. This battle is very good, and it is not far from the capture of Jincheng, which is a very important battle. ”

"No." The crowd answered.

Luo Tong also regained his confidence and said, "Good! If he dares to bring his troops out, I will lead the iron cavalry to fight him to the death. I don't believe how powerful he can be as a scholar. ”

************

Five days later, Sun Yu arrived with his army and set up camp on the north side of the enemy camp.

In order to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the opportunity to break them one by one, Luo Yi ordered all the soldiers and horses to assemble in the west and camp ten miles away from the enemy's camp.

When the soldiers and horses were assembled, a total of 20,000 iron cavalry and 30,000 infantry were assembled, a total of 50,000 soldiers and horses. Compared with before, it is 10,000 less. But the value of the death of 10,000 soldiers and horses was exchanged for 20,000 iron cavalry of the enemy!

The battle situation has returned to square one, but in general, the victory and defeat have tilted in favor of the Longxi Army.

As Sun Jian said, Li Heng is afraid of Luo Tong, and if he fights first, he will definitely lose.

"Lord, Sun Yu is here." In the tent, Sun Yu looked excited and hugged his fists.

Luo Yi raised his head and saw that it was Sun Yu, and asked people to give him a seat: "General Sun, this time you went north, you defeated Cao Qin, you have made a great contribution, I have written it down, and when I return to Longxi, I will add a reward." ”

"Thank you, Lord."

Luo Yi asked: "Do you know if the enemy soldiers are elite when you fight the enemy this time?" ”

Sun Yu said with a smile: "Lord, Cao Qin's subordinate who fought with me was originally an iron cavalry, but when I attacked the camp, I controlled all his war horses, and his soldiers couldn't exert their combat effectiveness, so they were crushed with one blow." ”

"If he has a warhorse, even if I can win, it will take a little more wrinkles."

After a pause, Luo Yi changed his question: "With the soldiers and horses in your hands now, if you fight with the Xiliang soldiers, how much can you defeat the enemy?" ”

Now, Luo Yi has returned the 10,000 people under his command to Sun Yu, that is, he now has 30,000 infantry in his hands.

Sun Yu thought for a moment and said, "Lord, I can defeat 50,000 enemies!" ”

"Hehe... Can you beat fifty thousand? Don't be arrogant. ”

Sun Yu said with certainty: "I will definitely be able to defeat 50,000 enemies!" The soldiers and horses in my hands have been carefully trained by me and General Zhao, for several months, they are well-equipped and skillful, whether it is a single soldier or a formation to meet the enemy, I am not afraid of Li Heng! ”

I don't know if I can have such confidence, or if I really have such strength.

The reason why Luo Yi asked this question was to understand the current strength of the army, if Li Heng really led his troops to break through, then how to meet the enemy, he had to prepare in advance.

After thinking about it, Luo Yi said: "Okay, when the big war starts, I want to see with my own eyes that you lead your 30,000 people and defeat the enemy 50,000!" ”

"Order!"

Sun Yu looked excited and hugged his fists again.
