Chapter 20 The young man fights and retreats from the enemy alone
In Yan Rou's military tent, Yan Rou is in the main position, accompanied by the prime minister of King Wuhuanqiao, Xian Yufu, Qi Zhou, Xian Yuyin and a cadre of generals on both sides. There was a person standing in the center of the www.biquge.info of the pavilion, wearing the official uniform of the captain of Dahan County, he was not very old, and his bearing was quite calm, this person hugged his fist and saluted Yan Rou, "Zou Lie has seen Yan Sima. ”
"General Zou is really rare in his year, if it weren't for General Zou's counter-strategy, we don't know when we would be able to capture Yuyang, let alone defeat Gongsun Fan. Now we raise the banner of righteousness to avenge Lord Liu Yu, and everyone promotes me as Wuhuan Sima, but this official position is not recognized by the imperial court. General Zou has made such a great contribution, and I have no right to reward the general. But I have written down the general's merits here. After defeating Gongsun Zan in the coming day and welcoming General Liu He to lead Youzhou, he will naturally ask for credit for the general, but I am afraid that the duty of a county is indispensable. Yan Rou said to Zou Lie.
"What did Yan Sima say, I think that when Liu Tingshi was there, the people of Youzhou could still eat a full meal, Hu and Han were peaceful, and there were few wars. But this Gongsun Zhan is mean and unkind, does not care for the people, oppresses Wuhuan in the three counties, and is good at raising swords with Yuan Shao in Jizhou, this person is really not the lord of Youzhou. What Zou did was really in line with the principles of heaven and the people. It's just a pity, my uncle Zou Dan only knows foolishness and loyalty, not righteousness, I originally intended to deceive Yuyang and persuade him, but I didn't expect to be a step too late but hurt my uncle to commit suicide, hey......" Zou Lie sighed.
"We also deeply regret Uncle Ling's death, and General Zou should not blame himself too much, after all, your righteous act is a major event for the country and the people. Thinking about it, Uncle Ling just didn't want to betray Gongsun Zhan, it was all one person's loyalty, but it didn't necessarily mean that he recognized what Gongsun Chan did in Youzhou, Gongsun Chan was angry and resentful, and Uncle Ling would definitely forgive you under Jiuquan. Yan Rou persuaded.
"As Sima said, I feel better. Yan Sima, now that Gongsun Zhan personally led the source of the troops, I don't know what Sima should do? Zou Lie said.
"I was about to ask the general, the general is both wise and brave, if it weren't for the general, what if we were still stopped outside Yuyang City?" Yan Rou asked.
Zou Lie hurriedly stepped forward and said, "It's not a secret, this anti-in-the-dark plan, the serial plan is not what Zou thinks, but a good strategy offered by a gentleman in our army." This person's surname is Lu, and the list is a Yu character, and he is the youngest son of the late Sikong Lu Zhi. ”
"I see, even after Zhongliang, and with this great talent, General Zou may recommend us and others." Yan Rou said.
"That's exactly what I mean." After speaking, Zou Lie withdrew from the tent, and after a while, he brought in a person. This person is not very old, only about twelve or thirteen years old, his body is slightly thin, his skin is fair, but he has a bit of a woman's feeling, his two eyes are quite beautiful, black and white, and he looks forward to the streamer, which makes people feel that this person is quite witty and intelligent.
Everyone was a little surprised to see that Lu Yu was so young, but Qi Zhou reacted faster and hurriedly said, "Ganluo Twelve is rumored to be a beautiful talk, and Lu Gongzi has two plans to determine Yuyang, not to mention how much he wants, he is really a hero and a young man." ”
The lord was wrong. How can Lu Yu and He De dare to compare. Lu Yu hugged his fists.
Yan Rou was concerned about the war and said to Lu Yu, "Now that Gongsun Zhan's army is coming to help, I don't know how we should deal with it?" ”
"I was about to report this to Lord Sima, if Gongsun Chan really led a large army to help, when we retreated, we should attack with all our strength and enter Yuyang. But now as soon as Gongsun Zhan's soldiers and horses arrived in the camp, they immediately set up camp to consolidate the defense. I'm afraid that this reinforcement is fraudulent? Lu Yu said.
Yan Rou hurriedly asked, "The reinforcements are fraudulent, do you mean that the number of 20,000 reinforcements we have detected is inaccurate?" ”
"In my opinion, the enemy's reinforcements are no more than 5,000, and the rest is a bluff. The reason why we suffered losses was because the enemy's situation was unknown at that time, and we were confused by the enemy. If our army had been pressed by the whole army at that time, I am afraid that it would not be the current situation? Lu Yu said.
"That's not your guess? Now that the withdrawal has also been withdrawn, is it possible to fight back again? Xian Yuyin asked.
"Yes, we want to fight back, we are now fully prepared and lined up outside the enemy's tent to see if they have the courage to come out? If the enemy does not come out, he will be short of soldiers and will concentrate on defense. We can use the tactics of attacking in turns, exhausting their strength, and then breaking through in one fell swoop. If the enemy army is out of battle, we can invite him to fight in the field, contain the enemy's forces, and then break through the enemy's camp with surprise troops, and make a meritorious contribution in one fell swoop. Lu Yu said.
"Both of your strategies are to assume that Gongsun Chan has insufficient troops, what if the enemy has enough troops?" Xian Yuyin asked again.
"What if the troops are abundant, are we so many soldiers and horses, one-on-one fighting, are we afraid that his grandson will not succeed?" It was the Wuhuan Cliff King who spoke.
"That's right, come, I'll order the soldiers to gather the generals and compete with Gongsun Zhan's soldiers and horses." Yan Rou said, beat the drum to gather the generals, and the whole army set off.
………………
On this side, Zhao Yun heard the spies coming from the tent, and the enemy army lined up ten miles in front of the walled gate, and asked General Gongsun Zan to personally go to the front of the battle to meet the enemy.
Zhao Yungang wanted to fight with his helmet, but was stopped by Tian Jing. "Master, can you think of a way to deal with it?"
"The soldiers are coming to block, the water is coming to cover the earth, are you afraid that Yan Rou will not succeed as a teacher?" Zhao Yun said.
"Master is slow, the enemy army was caught off guard by us, and just after the defeat and retreat, he came to invite the battle, I am afraid that there are masters in Yan Rou's army who see that our reinforcements are insufficient. If we fight, the camp will be unstable, and the enemy will take the opportunity to sneak attack; If we fail to fight, we are afraid that the enemy will see that we are short of men and attack with all our might, and the current defense is insufficient, and our army will surely suffer serious casualties. Tian Jing said, looking at Zhao Yun here.
Zhao Yun was obviously persuaded by Tian Jing, "You go on." ”
"The master may wish to listen to my skills, after a while we will open the gate of the wall, only the master will go out to fight, the soldiers in the city will ambush both sides of the walled gate, so that the enemy can not see the reality of our army, and then order people to lead a thousand cavalry from behind the village to attack, and surround the enemy after roundabout the mountains on both sides. I have my own soldiers and horses in the battalion, and I am here to deploy them, and it is expected that the enemy will not dare to make a mistake. Tian Jing smiled after speaking.
Zhao Yun was a little confused, "It's not a big deal to fight for the division's single horse, and I'm still a little sure of killing back and forth in the army of ten thousand horses." It's just that the soldiers are ambushed on both sides of this walled gate, and the enemy can easily see through it, and when the enemy is really about to attack, the enemy is outnumbered and defeated; And these two thousand cavalry outflanked 20,000 horses in a roundabout way, isn't it a fool's dream? ”
Tian Jing said with a smile, "The master said that the key is that the enemy is outnumbered, but this is what we know, but the enemy does not know, at least it is only a suspicion." We put up this position so that the enemy would think that we had a lot of reinforcements, and deliberately show weakness to lure the enemy into taking the bait. With 2,000 cavalry in a roundabout way, the enemy will definitely think that we have been prepared, and the master will go into battle alone, but I am afraid that the enemy will think that we are delaying time. In addition, we played the banner of Lord Gongsun Chan before, they must have thought that General Gongsun had already arranged to eat them in one fell swoop, and all we did was to cooperate with General Gongsun Chan's army, so I was afraid that they would have to retreat if they did not retreat. ”
"Okay, since this is the case, I will believe you once as a teacher, and I will gather all the generals and hand over the command of the battalion to you. The things in the camp must be done, and I will put on my armor and go to battle. After Zhao Yun finished speaking, he convened all the generals to discuss the matter in the camp.
……………………
Yan Rou and the others lined up in front of the camp of the Youzhou army, and they had already sent people to call for a long time, but they didn't see anyone in the Youzhou army coming out, Yan Rou believed in Lu Yu's strategy a little more in her heart. I was thinking that the Youzhou army would not fight for a while, so I mobilized a large army to directly attack the enemy's camp, but I saw that the enemy's gate was wide open, and one man and one horse could go out. The person who came came with silver helmet and silver armor, a white dragon horse under his feet, a bright silver spear in his hand, and a battle under the sun, just like a heavenly soldier in the lower realm.
Xian Yu Yin urged him to step forward, "Come and get a common name." You came out of the village alone, but you came to surrender to my family. After speaking, he only heard a burst of laughter behind him, and Xian Yuyin was also a little complacent.
"A certain Changshan Zhao Zilong is also, go and call Yan Rou to come out and die, you are not my enemy." Zhao Yun was not angry, but his face was red with a bland sentence.
Xian Yuyin saw that the enemy was so arrogant, and actually said that he was not the enemy of the unity, and he didn't fight out of anger, and he didn't say much, just said "Suffer death", and killed him with the big knife in his hand.
Zhao Yun sat firmly on the horse and did not move, waiting for the enemy's knife to slash before he turned sideways slightly, and when the two horses were wrong, the bright silver spear in his right hand was like a spirit snake spitting out the core and stabbing Xian Yuyin's throat. Xian Yuyin didn't see how the gun moved, only felt a light in his throat, and then blood sprayed wildly, turned over and fell off the horse.
Yan Rou and the others were also shocked, they didn't expect such a strong martial artist to kill Xian Yuyin with just one move. I'm afraid that all the generals in the battalion are not Zhao Yun's opponents. Yan Rou couldn't help but step forward to talk in person, and the weapons in his hands were also secretly on guard, thinking that even if he didn't win, he could retreat to the army.
"General Zhao is so handsome, but my army of 20,000 is lined up here, and I want to win or lose with General Gongsun Zhan. General Zhao went out to fight alone, could he not compete with 20,000 people one by one, but he was afraid that there were not enough soldiers and horses in the battalion, so he didn't dare to fight, right? Yan Rou deliberately tried to be.
"Our army is short of soldiers and horses, I'm afraid it won't be Yan Sima's turn to care. Since Zhao received the military order, he naturally wanted to meet the generals here to see who was strong in martial arts. If you don't have the courage to compete with me, it's okay, Sima might as well lead the army to attack the village. Zhao Yun said.
Yan Rou felt awkward in her heart, it seemed that she couldn't try it, but from here, the figures in the camp were shaking, and there must have been an ambush. I'm afraid it's not easy to attack the village. Just as he was thinking, a soldier suddenly came up behind him and whispered a few words in his ear, "The enemy has two battalions of cavalry attacking from behind the village and detouring the two flanks of our army. ”
Yan Rou sighed in her heart, could it be that the enemy still has a large number of reinforcements on the side, and the two wings are going to make us dumplings, Gongsun Chan is so big. Zhao Yun is here to delay time, I'm afraid that if we stay here for a while longer, we 20,000 people won't be able to leave.
Yan Rou thought of this and quickly decided, "If General Zhao wants to compete, Yan should accompany him." It's just that your army has just arrived, and it has never rested, and if you engage the general at this time, you will inevitably win. Why don't you wait for your army to rest for a day and fight again tomorrow? After speaking, he didn't wait for Zhao Yun to answer, and turned his horse back to the battle.
Yan Rou turned around and looked, Zhao Yun did not chase or retreat, he was still standing in place, and no change could be seen from his face. Yan Rou returned to the formation, originally a little hesitant, ready to discuss with others. At this time, the scout came to report that thousands of cavalry were coming fifty miles west of the camp. Yan Rou decisively ordered the entire army to retreat.
