Chapter 181: Jia Xu's Strategy
Zhang Quan rushed to Bowangpo to meet Zhang Xiu and persuaded Zhang Xiu to join Lu Bu, but was rejected by Jia Xu. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Lu Bu Pifu's courage is difficult to achieve, even if you want to be a couple, you can't get it." Jia Xu said to Zhang Xiu: "The general has promised to serve Cao Gong twice, if he repents now, not only will Lu Bu not be able to trust the general, but the general will also have a reputation for capriciousness like Lu Bu." β
Reputation is more important than life, Zhang Xiu can't bear the infamy, and said helplessly: "If I don't descend to Lu Bu, he will anger the Wancheng family, how to protect it?" β
Jia Xu said: "Don't worry, the young general will go back to restore his life, General Yan has promised Prime Minister Cao Cheng, and people will not stand without faith." There is a major general serving by Lu Bu's side, and the general's family has no worries about his life. β
The current children of the family are as scattered as possible to serve the princes of many parties, even if the boss on the head is finally defeated and hangs, they will not be implicated because they have relatives serving under the hostile command, and they will not be implicated and destroyed because of this, this is already an unfamous rule that has been cultivated in the past few years, Zhang Xiu nodded and agreed with Jia Xu's suggestion.
"But the road to Xuchang north has been blocked by Lu Bu, how to get there?" Zhang Xiu asked.
"This is exactly why I want the general to hold Bowangpo instead of retreating and returning to Anle City to hold on." Jia Xu said. He used several tricks to Lu Bu's surprise, but Zhang Xiu's cavalry was defeated, and Lu Bu's capture of Wancheng was also unexpected by Jia Xu, and when a group of executors were too stupid, Jia Xu's clever strategy slowly developed in an unfavorable direction.
Jia Xu analyzed: "The Wenpin army is in Deng County, Zhang Yun's army is in Zaoyang, the general only needs to block Lu Bu Xinye's army in Xinye and prevent him from going north, and Lu Bu will definitely lose this battle." β
Zhang Quan was threatened by Lu Bu when he left, and Lu Bu told him that if Zhang Xiu surrendered to Cao Cao, he would definitely die a miserable death, so he said: "What Cao Cao values is not his father's personal ability, but the power in his father's hands, now the cavalry no longer exists, and there are only 2,000 infantry left, and the rest of the troops in Wancheng belong to Lu Bu, and Cao Cao may not value his father anymore when he goes to Xuchang." β
Zhang Xiu was shocked into a cold sweat, his infantry were all in Wancheng, and now they had already been incorporated by Lu Bu, he ran to Xuchang alone, handed over to Cao Cao without military power, or ran as a murderer, thinking about it for a while.
Jia Xu has always focused on making a living, and is not very keen on fame and fortune, let alone wanting to get Cao Cao's heavy responsibility, and ignoring Zhang Xiu's heart of fame. Jia Xu's reluctance to join Lu Bu was due to Lu Bu's personality, and his changeable personality made him insecure, and he might have been clicked by Lu Bu that day. Lu Bu's personality has changed greatly in the past six months in the past few decades, and Jia Xu doesn't believe it at all, and the country is easy to change and difficult to change.
Jia Xu saw that Zhang Xiu's position wavered, and persuaded: "Then fight a beautiful battle, let Cao Gong see the general's excellence, and Cao Gong will naturally change his attitude and attach importance to the general's own ability." β
"How?" Zhang Xiu asked.
"Lu Bu's cavalry should have followed his nephew, right?" Jia Xu asked Zhang Quan.
"How does the gentleman know?" Zhang Quan asked in surprise.
"This is called saluting first and then soldiering, the virtuous nephew will serve Lu Bu, and Lu Bu will do this in order to appease the virtuous nephew, otherwise it will not be the virtuous nephew who will come first, but Lu Bu's army." Jia Xu said: "Since Lu Bu is here, and the cavalry of Lu Bu is annihilated, won't it confirm that the generals are like gods?" β
Zhang Quan was worried about his father's safety and said: "General Lu is all cavalry, and my father's cavalry is all broken, how can I defeat the cavalry with infantry?" β
"Lu Bu is advancing lightly, and he doesn't know that cavalry and infantry should complement each other. Without infantry, it was difficult for the cavalry to gain a foothold, so the virtuous nephew went back and told LΓΌ Bu that he would defeat him tonight. Jia Xu said.
Zhang Xiu looked at the back of his son's departure, and felt very unbearable, from now on, if the father and son met on the battlefield, they would draw their swords and face each other.
"How can Mr. tell the dog about the military dispatch, if he goes back and asks Lu Bu, won't he leak the military information?" Zhang Xiu complained.
"Capricious people must be suspicious, Lu Bu will definitely doubt the loyalty of the young general and anger him when he sees that I can't wait, and only after tonight that Lu Bu knows that what the young general said is true, can he save the life of the general's family." Jia Xu said.
"What is Sir's plan to break Lu Bu?" Zhang Xiu asked.
"Lu Bu is full of cavalry, and he is powerless in night fighting, so he robbed Lu Bu's camp tonight and destroyed his war horses." Jia Xu said.
Zhang Quan went up to the north, without deliberately looking for Lu Bu's camp in an open place, north of Bowangpo is the Funiu Mountain Range, there are not many open places suitable for cavalry warfare, Lu Bu has no infantry, and the cavalry cannot go deep into Bowangpo to fight, mainly because Lu Bu is full of fear of Jia Xu, and does not dare to go deep into the cavalry, and it is very easy for the cavalry to run in the open area.
Zhang Quan brought back the news of Zhang Xiu's reluctance to work, Lu Bu thought that if Zhang Quan came back, he should come back with Zhang Xiu, or neither of them would come back, but he didn't expect Zhang Quan to be willing to follow him, Lu Bu thought it was his personality charm.
"Jia Xu threatened to rob the camp tonight?" Lu Bu asked in disbelief. What kind of trick is Jia Xu going to do? The reason why Jia Xu is called a poisoner is that he can kill his opponent with every trick. He surprised Lu Bu several times, and this time he threatened to rob the camp, and there must be fraud in this.
Since Jia Xu wants to come to rob the camp, he will definitely not tell himself, so what is his original intention? Lu Bu fell into deep thought.
Lu Bu began to conceive various strategies from Jia Xu's point of view, and suddenly thought that this was not what he Lu Bu was best at. When he came up with this plan, he must have calculated that Lu Bu would inevitably suspect that since Lu Bu didn't believe it, it was very likely that Jia Xu would come to steal the camp tonight.
Since Lu Bu saw through Jia Xu's plan, how could he not prepare.
Midnight.
The sound of the sand in the west came from the darkness, as if countless people were hurrying in the dark. Lu Bu listened carefully, and the rustling sound was getting closer and closer.
"Ignition!" When the sound entered the bottom of the hillside, Lu Bu gave an order, and dozens of fires ignited.
"Lu Bu is here, you are waiting for the plan, surrender and don't kill!" Zhou Cang shouted, and the soldiers on the hillside chanted at the same time.
The young general who led the stealing camp waved the embroidered tooth flag, was stunned for a moment, turned around and ran: "There is an ambush, withdraw!" β
"Kill!" The soldiers of the archers rushed down the hillside, firing arrows as they went. War horses are not suitable for night fighting, horses can see the road clearly, but soldiers on horseback can't see clearly, and too fast a war horse will increase casualties. When LΓΌ Bu guessed that Jia Xu was about to rob the camp in the middle of the night, he asked Wei Yue to hide his horses in the mountains and forests, and he used the archers as infantry to ambush Zhang Xiu.
It is impossible to identify people carefully in the dark night, and Lu Bu has never seen Zhang Xiu, but Lu Bu, the uncle of Zhang Xiu's dead ghost, knows it, and Lu Bu sees that it is Zhang Xiuyaqi, and he chases after him.
Lu Bu's archery and cavalry camp was menacing, chasing and releasing arrows at the same time, and he looked like he was chasing Zhang Xiujun endlessly. In the darkness, one foot deep and one foot shallow, the road was full of pitfalls with large bowl mouths dug by Zhang Xiu's soldiers. Lu Bu let out a sigh of relief, but fortunately, he had an idea and used the cavalry as an infantryman.
I don't know how far I chased it, but suddenly several soldiers in front of me dropped their weapons, hugged their feet and shouted: "Ah! There are nails on the way! β
"My feet...... Yes! Countless soldiers screamed. The pursuing party was in disarray.
"Shoot!" The silence of the quiet two mountains was suddenly broken by a cold command.
The torches of the two mountains were lit, and each killed a road of men and horses, and the rolling stones and arrows rained down. Instantly caused a large number of soldiers to be killed and wounded. The archery battalion was one of the most elite soldiers under Lu Bu's command, and when it was suddenly attacked, it was still inevitable to trample on each other, and it was chaotic.
"Array up to meet the enemy!" Zhou Cang ordered the soldiers loudly.
"Fight back!" Lu Bu dodged the falling stones while jumping with the Dragon's Tongue Bow, which would take at least one enemy with each time.
Lu Bu's archers and cavalry are all scimitars with bows and arrows, and there is no shield at all to resist the bows and arrows shot by the other party.
From time to time, a soldier was hit by an arrow and fell to the ground, or was smashed into a pulp by a boulder rolling down the hillside, Lu Bu looked at the rapidly decreasing soldiers, and secretly regretted that he still underestimated Jia Xu, he thought that he had seen through Jia Xu's strategy, but it turned out that he was the real plan when he saw through Jia Xu's strategy!
"Rush up the mountain!" Looking at the fewer and fewer soldiers, there were countless traps on the road ahead, and there were many Zhang Xiu soldiers on the hillside who charged down, but they were slightly safer. Lu Bu immediately made a decision and took the lead in facing the rain of arrows and recoil towards the hillside.
Lu Bu ran and released arrows, when the short soldiers met, the scimitar shortcomings of the cavalry under Lu Bu were undoubtedly revealed, and the Zhang Xiu soldiers on the hillside were all pikemen, and they were condescending to rush down, and Lu Bu's cavalry needed two or three lives in exchange for one of the other party. Looking at the heavy losses of the archer battalion, Lu Bu's eyes were cracked, his teeth creaked, and he couldn't wait to peel Jia Xu and cramp.
Lu Bu's own strength is unparalleled in the world, and Zhou Cang killed the enemy together on one side, and the two of them took the bow and cavalry battalion to kill the enemy army like cutting vegetables, but where there is an obstacle, there is no one to join forces.
"My lord, go away! I'll break it off! Xiao Xiong wiped the blood from his face and anxiously yelled at Lu Bu, who was breaking through. More and more soldiers fell, and Lu Bu was surrounded by Zhang Xiu's soldiers rushing down the hillside.
"The blood is not shed, and the death is endless! Ben will not leave anyone behind, kill! Lu Bu roared to cheer people, and countless blood spurted out of his mouth, and this blood was of course the blood of the enemy sprayed into his mouth.
"The blood will not be shed, and the death will not stop!" The soldiers of the archer battalion who could still stand all shouted, and their sad voices were full of decisive tragedy, and they all marched forward bravely without fear of death.
The soldiers used their lives, and even if the soldiers of Zhang Xiu descended the mountain like tigers, they could not resist a group of soldiers of the archery battalion who were fighting for their lives, and they were cowardly, and slowly moved to the sides of the Lu Bu army, and entered the Lu Bu army formation that broke through from the flank.
Suddenly, Zhou Cang on one side flew back upside down, and his iron spear, which made the enemy frightened, was picked up by someone with one blow, knocking down five or six Lu Bu soldiers Zhou Cang stopped the tendency of his body to roll down, and his back was blurred with flesh and blood under the rubbing of the ground.
"Zhang Xiu is here, why don't Lu Bupifu kneel and surrender!"
