Chapter 0094 - Only Defeat is Allowed, No Victory

No one expected Gongsun Zhan's reaction to be so fast.

The scouts from Zhuojun sent a message that Gongsun Zhan's troops had arrived in Zhuo County, Zhuo County, and after a short rest, they were about to kill Zhuolu!

Prepare now!

Additional scouts were sent to keep abreast of the movements of the Beiping Army. Urgently order all departments to quickly reorganize and assemble. The cavalry team of Man Gui, including the escort merchants, suspended the follow-up escort mission and rushed to Zhuolu to assemble as soon as possible.

Against Gongsun Zhan, there is no need for combat mobilization, and soldiers from all walks of life have long held back their strength.

The generals are high-spirited, but they are also inevitably nervous.

Gongsun Zan is not a bandit or a bandit, and his soldiers are strong and strong, especially the white horse righteous servant, who has a great reputation.

Su Dingfang was ordered to be fully responsible for this operational deployment, but he was confident.

……

Zhuo County is located in the south of the upper valley, although the two counties are adjacent, but there is Jundu Mountain in the east, the Great Wall, Taihang in the west, from Zhuo County to Zhuolu in the upper valley, there is only one road to the north along the Tishui River Valley. (Tired water should be "?water", 氵纍, Yinlei, both Sanggan River and Yongding River)

The Youzhou region is northern, and at this time it is the time when the spring snow in the mountains melts, and the tired water rises.

The river is piercing, the beach is gravel, and the banks are hilly. This kind of terrain is more suitable for infantry maneuvering, and not conducive to the passage of horse teams.

Gongsun Zhan's department, with three thousand white horses and righteous followers, as long as it is dragged in the tiring water valley, it will be able to win the battle!

After listening to Su Dingfang's analysis, the confidence of the generals increased greatly.

"Lao Cheng wants to be a pioneer! Whoever wants to rob me, don't recognize me as a brother in the future! ”

In the battle to exterminate Zhang Ju, Cheng Biting Jin did not make a profit, he was unwilling, this time he was the first to stand up and ask for help, relying on his popularity and age, he even threatened the generals and did not want to be the pioneer with him.

"Good! Cheng bites Jin and listens to orders! ”

"No!" Although Lao Cheng couldn't get used to Su Dingfang, he accepted the military order unequivocally.

"Order you to lead two hundred foot soldiers as the vanguard and meet the enemy head-on!"

"No!"

"Wait!" Su Dingfang did not hand over the order flag to Cheng Yanjin, "Gongsun Zhan's troops are mainly cavalry, and they will definitely carry a lot of baggage, and it will take three days to pass through the Tishui River Valley, and order your troops to fight every morning in these three days, only need to lose, not win!" ”

"What? Only to lose? Losing three days in a row? "Although Cheng Yanjin understands the art of war and knows how to lure the enemy, he has to lose for three days in a row, this kind of vanguard errand is really too wretched!

"Dragging the Beiping army in the river valley is the first task, and it is only allowed to lose, not to win. As soon as the enemy army approaches, you can withdraw to the mountains and forests, and if you violate the order, you will be engaged in military law! ”

Cheng Yanjin stared at the cute big eyes, and he had the heart to cry.

However, the pioneer was robbed by himself, and the military order was not child's play, so Lao Cheng had to cry and take the order flag.

"Mulan obeys orders!"

"Mulan is here!" Mulan strode out of the ranks. At the mention of war, she immediately became heroic, not at all the stupid eldest sister who loves to shake other people's arms.

"Order you to bring two hundred bows, ambush in the retreat mountain road of the old Cheng Division, wait for the enemy to approach, retreat the enemy with random arrows, and ensure the safety of Cheng Biting Jinbu."

"Order!" Hua Mulan took the arrow, walked to Cheng Yanjin's side, and said in a low voice: "Brother Cheng, you can defeat with confidence, my sister will protect you!" ”

Let a cover herself? Cheng Biting Jin's red beard is going to be angry! But what can be done?

"Fu Youde and Li Xiucheng listen to orders!"

"No!"

"Order the two of you, each with his own foot soldiers, to ambush on both sides of the Tishui River Valley, wait for the enemy army to camp and rest, and take turns to harass the enemy camp in the middle of the night. Remember, the enemy army is large, not allowed to contact the enemy head-on, the enemy must go out of the camp to pursue, immediately retreat into the mountains and forests, the enemy white horse is obedient, do not dare to enter the mountains and forests at night, you two retreat to the mountains and forests, that is, turn to the next ambush site, hurry up and rest. Can you hear it after repeating it for three days? ”

Fu Youde and Li Xiucheng are generals who are proficient in the art of war, and there is no need to say much about the plan to harass the enemy and fatigue the enemy.

"Man Gui obeys the order!"

"In!"

"Order your cavalry to make a detour to the south mouth of the Tishui River Valley, and when the enemy army is broken, your troops will intercept and kill the retreating enemy, and there must be no mistake."

"Howler!"

"Hua Rong obeys the order!"

"In!" Although Hua Rong is young and doesn't talk much on weekdays, he is full of young heroes when he comes out to receive orders at this time.

"Order you to lead a hundred skilled foot soldiers, prepare more oil and hemp rockets, and ambush on both sides of the river valley."

After all, Hua Rong is still young and has little experience in marching operations, and after the deployment of each part is completed, Su Dingfang called Hua Rong separately and explained in detail, including the selection of ambush locations and the time to launch the attack.

All the generals received the task, Liu Mang couldn't sit still, he couldn't watch his brothers go into battle and fight, and he stood by and watched. "Dingfang, I ......"

Su Dingfang smiled. "The young master doesn't have to be anxious, the party has already been arranged."

The two took a team of personal guards and rushed to the north entrance of the Tishui River Valley.

The task assigned by Su Dingfang to Liu Mang was an extremely crucial part of this campaign.

The young master Liu Mang lacked combat experience, Su Dingfang did not dare to be careless, and Liu Mang went to the valley mouth to investigate on the spot, and explained the deployment in detail, including where Liu Mang led the team to attack and from which direction to retreat.

Liu Mang kept them in mind one by one. "Don't worry! I'm familiar with this job! ”

Zhuolu is preparing for the battle and is in full swing......

……

Gongsun Chan was a little depressed.

Not because Liu Mang robbed dozens of military horses, but because of the Sour Jujube Alliance.

The princes of the world will ally sour dates and discuss Dong Zhuo. Nominally, this is a righteous act to crusade against the rebels and help the Han family, but many of the participating princes also regarded this alliance as a big party.

The Han family is weak, and all the princes want to take advantage of this troubled era to fight for the greatest interests of the family they represent, and the Sour Jujube Alliance has become a stage for some princes to show their strength and win prestige.

As one of the princes in the Northeast, Gongsun Chan also wanted to show his strength in this alliance.

Youzhou Jizhou in the northeast of the Han Dynasty is a rich land, and it is also entrenched in Liu Yu, Han Fu, Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zhan, Gongsun Du and other princes.

Youzhou Mu Liu Yu, does not like swordsmen; Jizhou Mu Han Fu is weak and incompetent. Youji and Youji, sooner or later, will have to redivide the forces, and Gongsun Chan certainly hopes to take the opportunity to dominate Youji.

This time the sour jujube alliance, although Gongsun Chan did not bring many soldiers and horses, he brought the most elite three thousand white horses from all to the sour jujube.

Gongsun Zhan very much hopes to find an opportunity to lead the White Horse Yicong to compete with the Xiliang Iron Cavalry of Dong Zhuo Group.

The white horse is a righteous servant, who fights against the northern Xianbei rangers all the year round, and is designed to deal with cavalry from equipment to tactics. Gongsun Chan hopes to let the world understand who is the strongest warrior in the world!

However, Dong Zhuo did not give Gongsun Zan a chance, and led his troops to return to Chang'an early.

Yuan Shao, the leader of the allied forces, did not give Gongsun Zhan a chance to show his strength.

It's like wearing a costume to attend a grand ball, but you don't even have a dance partner, and you don't even have the opportunity to go down to the dance floor, can Gongsun Chan not be depressed......
