Under the slightly desperate gaze of Qi Ren, Yu Xi stepped into the dry river and was a little surprised by the scene in front of him.

After he got the order of General Zhao Wuxian, he took half of Zhao's cavalry to set off first, just in time for the Jishui pontoon bridge to be built, and a thousand horsemen trotted through Zhongduyi all the way, and then walked east for a day, and finally caught up with the tail of the Qi army.

In his expectation, this kind of pursuit and delay in the enemy's battle is, of course, the cavalry's forte, and whether it is the light soldiers arranged by Zhao Wuxian or the Qufu Lu soldiers, they are only auxiliary.

However, to Yu Xi's surprise, the Lu soldiers in Qufu City had already come out to attack the Qi army first, and won both battles with Tian Ben's light soldiers. When he came, he only saw the trenches dug in place, the earthen walls were erected, and the rear army of Qi was formed to charge the battle against the enemy.

After connecting with the scouts released by Ran Qiu, Yu Xi roughly asked about the battle situation, and couldn't help but be surprised. In the first battle, the casualties of the Ran Qiu Department were only two or three hundred, and they were all sent back to Qufu for resettlement, and in the second battle, the Ran Qiu Department lost more than two hundred, and the Tian Ben Department was a little heavier, more than four hundred, which is not a matter compared to the crippled entire rear army of the Qi State!

"The great merit has been won by the two of them, and it has nothing to do with me...... Yu Xi Wangtian rolled his eyes, and at the same time couldn't help but sigh at Tian Ben's courage and Ran Qiu's cleverness.

He and Tian Ben are both the old team of Zhao Wuxian in the lower palace, and they have come to this day step by step, knowing Tian Ben's personality and everything. But Ran Qiu, Yu Xi is impressive, this person does not have much merit on weekdays, although he has been praised by Zhao Wuxian many times because of his good training, often called "the talent of famous generals", and wants Yu Xi, Tian Ben and others to learn more, but most of the generals from the Jin Kingdom do not think so.

But this time, Ran Qiu proved himself and proved that Zhao Wuxian's vision was not bad. He dared to take the Qufu Lu people, in front of tens of thousands of Qi troops, and bite them fiercely in front of the rear troops, and after he succeeded, he did not blindly work hard, using flexible tactics to drag the reinforcements to arrive, and finally achieve the strategic goal, not only dragging down, but also severely damaging the rear army of the Qi State!

Remarkable, really remarkable.

At this time, Ran Qiu and Tian Ben were meeting to discuss when to attack, and when they saw Yu Xi leading the cavalry to arrive, they were overjoyed and came out to see him together.

The formation of the two is more than long and short weapons, Lu Bing's spear can be positive, Tian Ben's light soldier can be strange, just to make up for each other's shortcomings, but the long-range weapon is insufficient, after Qi people formed four martial arts to rush into battle, it is a little difficult to deal with in the face of arrow rain. With the speed of the cavalry and a large number of bows and arrows, it was possible to suppress the archers of the Qi people and flatten their temporary barriers.

But Yu Xi interrupted the two and brought them a piece of news, bad news.

"Although I really want to help the two of you break through the rear army and make immortal achievements, I'm afraid it won't work, the 30,000 army of Guoxia has pulled out the camp and turned around, just more than ten miles away!"

……

"Guoxia is coming, and it's coming so soon......"

Ran Qiu and Tian Ben glanced at each other, and they both saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

"Yes, I sent a hundred forward men to arrive here at midnight last night, and when they found the camp of the Qi army, they began to monitor the Guoxia Department. They set up camp in the place where they were a day's trip away from Yiyi, and this morning they did not see Gao Wupi's rear army coming to converge, and Guoxia turned around decisively. ”

"It's really ......" Fan Chi scratched his head, if it was him, he would definitely hesitate for a while.

"After all, Gaozi's drum is here, I heard the master who was a retainer in the Gao family talk about it, today's country and Gao Erqing are like a family, one is honored, one is lost, Gao Zi is trapped, how can the country not come to the rescue?" Ran Qiu sighed, in this way, it would be impossible to rely on them to completely annihilate the rear army.

"Let's fight!" Tian Ben still only has this one sentence.

Yu Xi disagreed: "Guoxia is not Gao Wupi, I saw that he sent troops very orderly and cautiously, the two wings of the Qi army opened and rushed towards this side, and it was we who were surrounded and encroached upon at that time, and the lord's army probably only passed through the central capital, and it will take two days to get here, I'm afraid I can't come over in time......"

Everyone was bitter in their mouths, yes, as soon as the 30,000 troops of Guoxia came, even if they were brave and brave, they could not be opponents.

"I know that if I want to lose, I will fight! We can also set up a fortress in situ like the Qi people, entangle the army of Guoxia, and delay them for a day, or even half a day. Tian Ben is aggressive, not only does he want to fight to the death, but he also wants to leave others behind.

Ran Qiu frowned, no wonder he had heard Zigong comment that this Tian Ben was stubborn and unkind, a bit like the ancestor of the Jin Kingdom, if he was kidnapped by him with loyalty, I am afraid that the Zhao family would experience a defeat here.

"Did the second and third sons make a mistake......" At this moment, Shi Qi, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.

"Guoxia turned around, and the task assigned to us by General Zhao has been accomplished, although it has only delayed the enemy army for one day. But tens of thousands of troops marched, stretching for nearly ten miles, here to the Yi still a day and a half of the journey, to the north of the country of Lu two or three days. With the spear of the reckless pawn, the bravery of the light soldiers, and the speed of the light cavalry, why worry about not having a chance, why do you need to stay here and fight hard with the Qi people? Although I Shi Qi is not afraid of death, but I do not fight meaningless battles, and when the general's army arrives, I see that our whole army is annihilated, and the Qi people withdraw from the Lu country without worry, and then the real success will be completed. ”

"You mean, just let the people go?" Tian Ben glared angrily, he had already made up his mind to die when he came this time.

"Of course not!" Time was pressing, and the army of Guoxia would come over at some point, and there was no room for nonsense, so Shi Qi knelt down on one knee and drew a map on the ground. Although he was a Chu man, he had already had a good chat with Fan Chi when he was on the boat, and he had a general understanding of the topography of the Lu country.

"Guoxia came to save the rear army, and then before it could continue to move forward, out of a lesson, the army will inevitably shrink again, instead of marching dozens of miles apart like before, so that the speed will be slower."

"We don't have this kind of worry, after temporarily avoiding the edge of Qi people, we might as well divide it into three parts, so that we can be more flexible."

In the three divisions, Ran Sima and Tian Shishuai led Lu soldiers and light pawns to occupy the left and right flanks of the Qi people respectively, and from time to time they made attacks to contain them, and the enemy army tried to counterattack and fled into the mountains and forests. As for the commander of the Yu Division, in addition to leaving one hundred horsemen for us as scouts, the remaining nine hundred horsemen can use their speed to gallop north and go around in front of the Qi people. When the bridge is broken, the pass is cut down and blocked, and the Qi people can bypass the obstacles, but the nearly a thousand chariots in the army can't get around, unless Guoxia can ruthlessly abandon these chariots, otherwise they can only stop and go. In this way, they may be able to drag them before they leave the country of Lu. ”

After Shi Qi finished speaking, the other four were silent for a while, and the two senior brothers, Ran Qiu and Fan Chi, nodded to each other first: "This plan is very good. “

Yu Xi looked at Shi Qi curiously, secretly thinking that this little man of Chu not only has the courage of an outlaw, but also has a smart brain.

Only Tian Ben was still a little unhappy: "The Qi people will also arrange heel troops on the front road, and breaking the road and harassing them may not necessarily slow down their peers, what if they run away?" “

"I proposed it, the blame lies with me, if you run away from the Qi army, just take my head and hand it over to General Zhao." Shi Qi said this flatly, which was awe-inspiring.

"That's what you said!" Tian Ben pointed at the tip of his nose and shouted. "If this does not work, Nagong will definitely take your head and make a bow, and let people kick it ten thousand times!"

Shi Qi's face did not change: "But if the Qi army is successfully dragged down, can Master Tian give me the next opportunity to be a pioneer?" ”

Tian Ben stared at Shi Qi, and after a while, he high-fived him with his hand and said, "One word is a certainty!" ”

In the middle of their argument, two more horsemen came to report, and after they whispered this and this in Yu Xi's ear, Yu Xi nodded and told them to retreat.

"The Guoxia army has arrived within ten miles, and it must be evacuated."

He suddenly smiled again and said, "I'm the only one left who hasn't made a statement?" Well, I think Zixi's plan is promising, because I just learned the news of the scouts, and it seems that something has happened to the Yiyi that fell due to the fall of the Meng clan before......"

……

"Brother Shi!" Despair is always accompanied by hope, and the enemy army is like a tide, which suddenly recedes, and then the flag of the country appears on the horizon, which brings tears to Gao Wupi's eyes.

He also knew that he had sinned a lot, and after being saved, Gao Wupi pleaded guilty to Guoxia with a face of shame.

"Brother Shi, it was all my carelessness for a while, I fell for the tricks of the Lu people, I was dragged by force all night, and half of the soldiers were separated." Not only the soldiers, but also the generals were missing or killed in battle, such as Lu Qiuming, who fell out of the car and was dragged to death in the melee.

Accidentally? Guoxia is as his name suggests, with a national character face, the commander of the Qi army has an old-fashioned face in his thirties, he looked at Gao Wupi who pleaded guilty, and sneered in his heart. This is not careless, but reckless, he would have named such a person to sit in the rear army, but he was also blind!

But then, a sense of powerlessness rose in Guoxia's heart, who else could he trust except for Gao Wupi to rearend the army? Bao's? Yan's? Seeing that the Chen family is getting bigger day by day, Chen Qi and Chen Heng's father and son have a close relationship with the doctors, and there are countless people who take refuge, but the second secretary of the national high school is declining day by day.

Gao Zhang once supported the young Guoxia as the secretary after the death of his father Guoweak, you know, it was the sensitive season when Erhui fell and Chen Wuyu covered the sky with one hand in the court. It can be said that if there is no Gao clan, there is no Guo clan, and now Gao Zhang's health is not good, and the Gao family urgently needs a son who can support the beam. Guoxia took care of Gao Wupi and let him be young and command an army, hoping to cultivate his own help as soon as possible, which was Guoxia's selfishness and became his fault.

Thinking of this, Guo Xia changed his smile, took the silk scarf, and personally lost the dust on Gao Wupi's face, and said to him: "Guo Gao was originally an ancestor, and they have supported each other for two hundred years. “

"Brother, I'm ......" Gao Wupi was young after all, and he was so moved that he couldn't speak at this time.

Guoxia helped him up and said, "Get up, you and I will join hands when we come, and naturally we will join hands side by side." The enemy army tried his best to delay you, but it had already been delayed for too much time, and the whole army gathered and immediately went north, and it was not too late to rest in Yuyi. You are in the same car with me, and by the way, tell me in detail what happened in the past two days, and you will not miss a single thing! (To be continued.) )
