Chapter 402: This Is Not a Reduction Meter

PS: The second chapter is in the afternoon

"Since the robbers have been defeated by the commander......" Seeing that the surrounding hills and woods were gradually gloomy, Shi Man couldn't help urging: "Then we might as well retreat to the flat ground and camp tonight." ”

"Shi Sima is scared?" Gongsun drove to stand on the chariot and asked with a light smile.

"Ambition is rampant!" Shi Man held back his anger and swallowed back his subconscious reprimand for this junior.

Shi Man is the Shi clan of the Wei Kingdom, that is, the descendant of Shi Jie, who "killed relatives in righteousness", but he is only a small branch of the sect, so he is still only a Yi Sima of Shengdouyi in his fifties, although he is long in the military array, but his ability is destined to be inferior to having a good background and a good surname.

And Gongsun drove out of the Gong clan, and the Wei Guo Gong clan has also declined, just like the poem: Mantis Si Yu, Yu Xi; The descendants of Yier, vibrate. They have been breeding for more than 500 years, and they have been born one after another like mantises, and it is not uncommon for them to be born.

But Gongsun Qi is different, he is the grandson of Wei Xianggong, the nephew of Wei Hou Yuan, the eldest in the family full of children and grandchildren, and is favored by the elders. He was a handsome young man in his twenties, with elegant manners and a haughty attitude, and he was promoted all the way up after only a few years in the army.

Although he had never experienced a battle formation, he did not come empty-handed, at least he did a lot of things: he was wrapped in black and red lacquer-dyed leather armor, he held a large bow that had only shot roe deer and deer, and a two-foot sword hung from his waist, although Shi Man suspected that it had never been stained with human blood, and at this moment standing on a high-wheeled chariot drawn by a black war horse, it was enough to despise Shi Man, the diminutive deputy.

This time there was a robbery in Juyeyi, and after Wei Hou adopted Mi Zibian's suggestion, the commander Gongsun drove more than 2,000 people to the east to suppress the Kou, so he recruited Shi Man and his subordinates.

At the beginning, Gongsun Qi, who had never led troops to fight, could be described as a polite corporal to Shi Man, and he had to ask about everything. How to set up camp, how to march, how to find the enemy, how to set up the formation during battle......

He was a gifted and quick learner of everything, and was soon defeated in a battle against a small group of bandits. Leaving behind dozens of corpses, the bandits fled from the mountain road.

"It's weird, usually Onozawa thieves don't fight like this." After the defeat of the third wave of bandits, Old Shi Man began to become suspicious.

"Especially since there were no people who surrendered, and the wounded were all taken away, why did they do that?"

"Didn't Sima say that robbers often act together with their fathers and brothers, and if their father is injured, their son will help them. If the elder brother is injured, the younger brother will be treated, isn't this a normal thing? In this way, the speed of their escape will definitely be slowed down, allowing the rear army to speed up! ”

However, at this time, Gongsun Qi's attitude began to change, and the continuous victories made his heart swell to the extreme, and he scoffed at Yi Sima's suggestion. He thought that he had won the victory because of his proper command. But Yi Sima is a man who can't fight, and is so cautious about those vulnerable bandits.

As it is now. As they gradually approached the Giant Wild, encounters with the bandits became more and more frequent, after easily "defeating" today's fifth group of bandits. Gongsun drove to become invincible, he forcibly took over the command, and let the soldiers quickly pursue the past, and they were bound to chase the north. Bring them to the edge of the lake.

Shi Man hurriedly said to stop him: "Absolutely not, as the saying goes, don't enter the forest, the thieves are cunning, you don't know that there is no ambush, and the commander is still serious." ”

Gongsun Qi said: "These thieves are just moss. The important thing is to rush to Juye as soon as possible and lift the siege, this is the king's order, Shi Sima is trying to stop it? Could it be that he wants to use the ancient military salute of running no more than a hundred paces and no more than three houses to this group of damned thieves? ”

Shi Man is not good at words and is speechless.

Gongsun expelled a confident smile: "Shi Sima, let your soldiers lead the way, we will pass through this hill tonight, and go straight to the bottom of Juyeyi, and the people of the city are looking forward to the prince for a long time." ”

This will be his first battle exploit, and it will also be an opportunity to prove his ability to his uncle, the identity of the grandson of the Wei Guo combined with the invincible ability, it is not a dream to become a doctor, or even rank in the Qing clan!

Gongsun Qi arbitrarily determined that these "robbers" were discouraged and were defeated with one blow. So he ordered the troops to drop their baggage, and the whole army pursued day and night, hoping to go to Juye tomorrow to replenish on the spot and complete the mission of this dispatch.

Shi Manren spoke softly, and could only be driven by Gongsun, and he was apprehensive.

The two thousand guards ran along, chasing the fleeing bandits, and gradually entered a wooded area surrounded by hills, the most unsuitable terrain for chariots, but where would the proud grandson get out of the car and walk on foot?

"Something isn't quite right here." After entering the hills and bushes, Shi Man came again to admonish Gongsun and muttered.

The young commander who was full of self-confidence smiled contemptuously at him: "Really? How wrong. ”

"Doesn't the commander feel it?" Shi Man asked, "Listen carefully to the sounds in the dark, the homing birds hovering on the top of the bushes and dare not fall, there is something that makes them afraid." ”

Shi Man was cautious, and had already sent several scouts to the two wings, so that each of them was a hundred paces apart, cutting grass in the woods. Who would have expected that after a while, none of these people would come to report, and when they went to investigate again, they were gone, and only some people said that they had faintly heard a muffled snort.

If there is an enemy, he must have a weapon that kills people in the invisible and silent!

Just as the two were arguing, the fallen tree suddenly crossed in front of them, blocking the way, Shi Man was completely sure that he was definitely a trick today!

"Not good! Extinguish the fire quickly! ”

On the uneven ground, the ranks of the patriots were stretched into a long line, many of which had already lit pine torches. And the high-wheeled cart at the front, Gongsun Drive's dazzling outfit is precisely the most conspicuous target when the black is not black!

It was already too late, and the next moment, thousands of crossbows were fired in unison on the hills on both sides of the woods!

……

"Whoever goes deep into the enemy's realm, he must observe the situation of the land, seek convenience, and consolidate it according to the mountains and forests, dangers, springs, and trees......

In a safe bush more than 100 steps away from the ambush point, Zhao Wuxian listened to the terrible screams of the patriotic soldiers on the other side of the hill, and while thinking about what had happened in the past half a month, he and Zhang Meng talked about the "chain plan" that was linked one by one.

Because it is expected that the Wei Association will rebel again, it is not a matter of a day or two for Zhao Wuxian to plot to defend the land of Punan, as early as a year ago, he continued to send people to the guard. Or in the name of a businessman, or under the guise of being a traveling man who is becoming more and more common in the world. So now, he is as familiar with Pu Nan as the garden in his backyard, and the light knights are even more like no one.

At the beginning of October, the robbers who had been recruited were sent to Punandi in batches. This is just the first step in the chain plan to "lure the snake out of the hole".

Before the Weiguo officially declared war on the Jin, Zhao Wuxian would not let the military soldiers enter the Weidi in a structured manner, creating a pretext for the Weiguo people to rebel. What's more, if he attacked Punan's Siyi without his life at the beginning, what if the patriots felt that the threat here was too great, changed their original plan, and listed him as the first-class enemy, and watched Punan with an army of 500 people?

If that's the case, wouldn't Fan's, Zhongxing's, and Handan's have to laugh crookedly? Zhao Wuxian is not interested in working hard and hating the gold thread every year, but in the end he makes wedding clothes for others.

So at first, there were only sporadic bandits harassing the village. Slowly, the road was cut off, and it escalated into a large-scale robbery, so big that the guards stationed in Lishan, and even the Puyang guards, had to pay attention to it.

After several correspondence with Zhao Wuxian and some kind of secret agreement that was not known to the public, the thief was still an undying enemy one day, but the next day his attitude changed drastically and silently served Zhao Wuxian. The reason for this is not only that the thieves can't figure it out. Even the mid-level military officials in the shirtless camp couldn't figure it out, so they could only carry out the order in a daze.

Zhang Mengtan and Kan Zhi can get a glimpse of one or two of them. They were all impressed by Zhao Wuxian's whimsical idea to solve this matter.

In short, the thieves were responsible for leading more than 1,000 groups of thieves to attack Juyeyi and cut off its external communication with the outside world. Don't be afraid of thieves and dishonest.

Finally, after a long wait, Wei Guo finally took the last step, and in the face of harsh conditions such as accepting protons and leaving the people, he said "no" to Jin Guo in strong terms. Immediately, Wei Hou was even more beaten. With Wang Sunjia and Mi Zibian, the two armies of the left and right commanders took the initiative to send troops, and five hundred soldiers marched towards Chaoge City! After beating the Fan family by surprise, and he didn't know how the war was going over there, Zhao Wuxian really hoped that they would lose both.

Since Wei Jin broke up, as a hardcore ally of the Jin State, the Lu State could not help but express something. When Yang Hu, who was about to change to the external hardliner, was still there, he would have sent troops directly to Puyang, but Sanhuan was not courageous, and the news had just reached Lu State, so he used the excuse of defending Qi people and did not act.

What's more, there is Confucius in the court, Confucius has a good sense of Wei Hou at this time, he has always liked to praise Lu Wei for harmony, restore the good of Zhou Gong and Wei Kang, and most likely will not support Lu Hou to help Jin attack and defend.

Lu Cheng may not take action in another half a month, but Zhao Wuxian can't wait, he has taken the righteous name of assisting the alliance leader, so he can do it freely.

What's even more gratifying is that on the north bank of Pushui that day, Xing Ao also passed the news of Punan, the snake that had been hovering and dormant in Lishan for a long time finally came out of the hole!

The prediction of the situation came true, and the "luring the snake out of the hole" was perfectly realized, and then it was a process of "casting bait to lure the enemy".

Those who made it useless and discarded became victims, and they were placed in batches on the path that the guards must pass, and they were defeated in one blow, some were really defeated, and some were pretended to be defeated. And after eating one delicious fat bait after another, the grandson of the guard division had already been carried away by the victory and the exploits in front of him, and chased all the way and stepped into the encirclement in half a step.

Although this is not a reduction plan, this ambush is similar to the battle of Maling where Sun Bin captured Pang Juan in history, and the art of war must be learned alive to be a good art of war.

"I brought a full 400 single-armed crossbows and more than 20,000 copper cluster arrows this time, all of which were specially prepared for them......

The crossbow arrows are still shuttling and ringing, nailed to the flesh and blood of the human body, nailed to the big tree, nailed to the skin shield, and the sound is different, together it is like a bell performance under the guidance of a musician!

This is the music of war.

Estimating in his heart that he had probably shot out seven or eight thousand arrows, Wuxian raised his banner and waved it, so that his men could be ready in their respective ambush positions, and as soon as the crossbow arrows passed, they could launch a surprise attack and annihilate this guard in one fell swoop!

After that, there were only a few soldiers left in Punan to fight for their own battles, and at that time, not only Juye could be taken down in an instant, but the rest of the cities Pu, Shengdou, and Vertical Hill would also greatly reduce the difficulty of the attack. Before the snow falls in November, Wuxian wants to let them all change to the Zhao family's Xuanniao banner! (To be continued......)
