Chapter 227: Dingjun Mountain Design
It is said that after Gao Pei and Yang Huai came to Yangping Pass with an army of 50,000, they have been besieging but not attacking. This made Zhao Yun and Zhao Ang wonder, it stands to reason that when Lu Bu launched an attack, they should take the opportunity to send troops.
In the blink of an eye, seven or eight days have passed, and in the face of the 50,000 army in front of the pass, Zhao Ang said to Zhao Yun: "It seems that they are going to fight a protracted war, then we will accompany them to the end!" They surround Yangpingguan like this, and there is not the slightest threat to us. ”
Zhao Yun was silent for a long time and said: "I don't think it maybe, if my guess is correct, what time should they be waiting for, they must instruct the soldiers to guard Dingjun Mountain, Yandang Mountain and Zoumaling, these three places must not be lost!" ”
Zhao Ang said: "I have already sent the order down!" ”
Zhao Yun nodded and went back to the camp to rest.
It was the third watch of the night, only to hear a cannon sound, and tens of thousands of troops outside Yangping Pass were dispatched together. Zhao Yun was shocked and hurried to Guanshang to personally command.
However, Gao Pei and Yang Huai's army automatically retreated after attacking for a while.
Zhao Yun said to Zhao Ang: "Brother Zhao, did you notice that they seemed to have a lot fewer soldiers attacking the city tonight?" ”
Zhao Ang nodded and said, "There should only be about 40,000 soldiers, and the other 10,000 soldiers didn't go somewhere else?" ”
Zhao Yun smiled slightly and said, "If you want to play tricks with General Ben, it's really overwhelming!" Brother Zhao, you lead the troops to guard the pass! General Ben took 2,000 men and horses to meet his army of 10,000! ”
Zhao Ang said: "General Fei knows where his 10,000 army went?" ”
Zhao Yun said: "His current army to attack the city is just a plan to attack the east and the west!" Their real purpose should be one of Dingjun Mountain, Yandang Mountain, and Zoumaling, all three of which are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it will not be easy for them to take any of these three places. However, Gao Pei and Yang Huai are old and cunning, and often the most difficult place to take is the more likely they are to make a move! ”
"According to what the general said, the 10,000 soldiers are most likely to cross the Han River to capture Junshan?"
Zhao Yundao: "Very likely! ”
After that, Zhao Yun rushed to Dingjun Mountain with 2,000 men and horses.
After arriving at Dingjun Mountain, the defenders guarding there were very cautious, but if there was any disturbance, they would go to check in time, which made Zhao Yun very pleased.
At this time, when Zhao Yun was leading the troops on patrol, he suddenly found that a few woodcutters were sneaking around in the distance, and Zhao Yun immediately asked his subordinates to arrest them and interrogate them.
After some interrogation, they insisted that they were woodcutters who lived nearby and made a living by cutting wood, and Zhao Yun had no evidence, but he was worried that several of them were spies, so they had to be temporarily locked up in the army.
But what Zhao Yun didn't expect was that the woodcutters had killed the soldiers guarding the door that night and quietly slipped away.
When a soldier was about to chase after him, Zhao Yun hurriedly stopped it, and told the soldiers to act as if nothing had happened, and the next day, he still went to inspect everywhere as usual.
After inspecting for several days, Zhao Yun finally waited for the news he wanted in the big tent. And the one who brought him this good news was Han Zhong, who could compete with Ma Bin in doing push-ups.
Han Zhong said: "A large number of soldiers were found in a rather hidden valley west of Dingjun Mountain, and they were extremely hidden, and I almost didn't find them when I was investigating. ”
Zhao Yun smiled: "It seems that General Ben really guessed it!" Does it take a deep valley to get from the place where they are stationed to Dingjun Mountain? ”
Han Zhong really didn't expect Zhao Yun to have such a clear understanding of the surrounding terrain, and hurriedly said: "They really have to pass through a valley, which is very suitable for ambushes, if they block both ends of the valley and then set up an ambush in it, even if he has thousands of troops and horses, he will definitely die!" ”
Zhao Yun laughed and said, "Although we think so, don't they know that the way is easy to be ambushed?" Han Zhong, I have to go to see if you can catch a few soldiers, and help General Ben ask who their master is! ”
After Han Zhong received the order, he went to investigate. However, when he approached the camp of the 10,000-strong army with five or six men, he was suddenly surrounded by a group of soldiers.
After a while, a man wearing a golden helmet and silver armor walked up to Han Zhong and said, "It seems that Zhao Yun still has some ability!" But his wishful thinking was wrong! Someone, bring a few of them back to me! ”
In Yang Bai's barracks, he leaned on the couch and looked at Han Zhong with a smile, Han Zhong had not seen Yang Bai before, but he still heard his name, so he said: "I heard that they all call you General Yang, it seems that you should be Yang Bai, right?" ”
Yang Bai was just about to speak, but at this time, a few soldiers pressed a person into the camp tent, Han Zhong fixed his eyes, and the person in front of him was none other than Yang Yue!
"It seems that Zhao Yun has sent a lot of spies! Tell me, what did Zhao Yun send you to do? Yang Bai sipped the tea slowly and leisurely, looking quite leisurely.
The last time Han Zhong competed with Ma Bin in the snow, Yang Yue was also "watching" the battle from the side, so when he saw Han Zhong, he nodded first, and then said unhurriedly: "Yang is not a spy. If Yang guessed correctly, you are Yang Song's eldest brother, General Yang Baiyang, right? ”
Yang Bai looked up to the sky and laughed and said, "What? How many of you know me? ”
Yang Yue said: "Of course I recognize!" To be honest, I just came back from Chengdu and met Yang Song. ”
"Oh? The war between the two armies is imminent, can you come back alive when you go to Chengdu? ”
Yang Yue smiled: "Why can't you come back alive?" Yang came to Chengdu to help General Zhang create a great cause, do you think he will embarrass me? ”
Yang Bai was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I want to hear about it!" ”
After Yang Yue told Yang Bai everything he had done in Chengdu, Yang Bai immediately asked Yang Yue, Han Zhong and others to loosen their bonds, and then asked them to prepare a banquet.
At the banquet, Pang Xi saw that Yang Bai was treating those spies well, so he said, "Could it be that General Yang wants to rebel?" ”
Yang Bai glared at him angrily and said, "Someone is coming, General Pang dares to be so rude!" Get him out of here! ”
When Pang Xi heard this, he was even more furious, pointed at Yang Bai and said loudly: "Yang Bai, you guy who sells for glory, you can't die well!" ”
Yang Bai was suddenly furious: "Someone, beat him out with a stick!" ”
After Pang Xi was really beaten out of the camp, Yang Bai said to Yang Yue and Han Zhong: "The two of you go back and tell General Zhao that General Zhao will withdraw his troops tomorrow!" You must contain the army of Gao Pei and Yang Huai, in this case, General Zhang's great cause can be accomplished! ”
Yang Yue raised his wine glass and said, "I have long heard that General Yang and his brothers are loyal to General Zhang. When General Zhang obtained several counties in the south of Yizhou as the land of Longxing, that is, when General Yang's fame spread all over the world! ”
Yang Bai drank all the wine in the cup and said: "I borrowed Yang Hujun's auspicious words!" This time, General Zhang occupies the right time, place and people, and with the help of the "Huangshi Book of Heaven", it seems that great things will be done! ”
After Yang Yue and Han Zhong heard what he said, they also echoed it to the fullest, praising how Zhang Lu had the legacy of his ancestors, how he was loved by all the people, and so on.
After three rounds of drinking, Yang Bai personally sent an army to send Yang Yue and Han Zhong to Dingjun Mountain. (To be continued.) )
