"Doctor Luqiu was pursued by Lu soldiers out of the city, and the doctor was defeated, so he asked the general for urgent help!"
When receiving the news that the Lu army was out of the city to pursue, Gao Wupi, the commander of the rear army of the Qi State, was slightly startled, and asked the emperor to stop the car that was slowly heading north, looked back at the dust raised behind the army, and frowned and scolded Lu Qiuming for "incompetence". He should have arrived a long time ago, but he was delayed for half an hour.
"How many people are there in the Lu army? Where is the battlefield? ”
"Three or four thousand, the battlefield is eight or nine miles to the south."
"Three or four thousand people......" Gao Wupi touched the faint beard on his lips and thought for a moment, and couldn't help but have an idea in his heart.
Unlike Lu Qiuming, who is only a small doctor, Gao Wupi's background is unspeakably noble, he is the son of Gao Zhang, the vice secretary of Qi, and he is also the son of the Gao family.
Since the succession of Duke Huan of Qi, although Guan Zhong has a great reputation, his power only stops at his body, and he does not dare to encroach on the Gao family and the Guo clan for life, and the Gao family and the Guo clan are actually the masters of Qi and hold real power. Linzi was divided into 21 townships by Guan Zhong, Qi Hou led 11 townships, Gao and Guo's Shangqing Guozi each led 5 townships, and led one-third of Qi's army during the war.
Although the Gao clan has gone through ups and downs several times, it still has a strong strength, and it is not as good as the Chen clan in one-on-one, but if it unites with the Guo clan, it can also gain the upper hand.
Now that his father Gao Zhang has been ordered to garrison Linzi, the "Drum of Gao Zi" has fallen into the hands of the young Gao Wupi.
Gao Wupi remembered that in the history of the family's oral tradition, the ancestors of the Gao family were very warlike, and the most famous was Gao Xuanzi. During the battle of Saddle, Gao Gu was very brave, and he rushed into the Jin army camp on a bicycle, he rushed left and right, and bravely rushed to kill, as if entering a no-man's land. even upholstered tree stumps and threw them at the heads of the enemy; Large rocks were also raised, smashing several enemy vehicles. In the end, many prisoners were captured, tied to the captured car, dragged a mulberry tree behind the car, returned to the camp in triumph, and shouted at the Qi soldiers: "Yu Yong Kejia! “
However, with the decline of the Qi State, the martial arts of the Gao clan are not as good as the generation, and when it comes to Gao Zhang and Gao Wupi's father and son, the limelight is completely robbed by his contemporary, Guoxia.
Gao Wupi was a little anxious about this, although he is now a military general, he has to listen to Guoxia's orders, although the two families are close, but there is also secret competition. Gao Wupi went on the expedition on behalf of his father this time, and he wanted to prove himself in a hurry, but he didn't encounter any major battles after entering Lu, and he didn't even build a big capital, so if he went back like this, Gao Wupi felt unacceptable.
This time he was chased by the Lu people, and while frowning at the accident, he also realized that this was an opportunity.
The task of his rear army is to ensure the safety of the rear, and if he is chased and beaten by less than half of his own Lu people, then his high face will be lost. According to Gao Wupi's idea, if he can use the advantage of strength to eat the pursuing Lu people in one bite, then he will have a dazzling credit for this trip to Lu.
"Father should feel that there is a light on his face......" Thinking so, Gao Wupi gave the order for the three divisions to turn around, so that the front team of the advancing army turned into a rear team, and lined up to prepare to attack the enemy. With a little caution in his heart, he also sent a messenger to inform the Guoxia Zhongjun army half a day's journey to the northwest, and if there was a change behind him, he would catch up after he spent a few hours to solve the enemy at the end of the line.
However, after waiting for half an hour, the more than 8,000 Qi troops completed their U-turn and walked back a few miles to the south, and when they saw the Lu Qiu Ming Department and the Lu soldiers who were pursuing him in the distance, Gao Wupi's face turned black......
……
The Lu people were pursuing, not only the better-equipped veterans, but even the less trained new pawns also rushed up, they had been inspired by the township party in front of them, these new pawns did not form a large team, with their short training, even if they were entangled into a large phalanx, it was impossible to maintain, just a group of more than 20 people, maintaining a reluctant formation, holding spears and rushing forward to chase the north.
The Lu army has formed a wide enough front, like a big net, and each Shiwu is like a hole in the net, rushing towards the fleeing Qi people.
Qi people were running away, they were very panicked, Lu Qiu Ming ran the fastest in the car, and disappeared as soon as he slipped away, leaving only ordinary Qi soldiers running lifelessly behind. No one noticed that the pursuers behind them were running forward, and the queue was no longer so neat, and they saw only blood-stained spears.
The screams and howls resounded through the fields wetted by Su Si, but seeing that the people of the Lu country were firmly holding their spears forward, they overturned the Qi people who had caught up and knocked them down, and the cries sounded intensively, and they fell silent again, but there was an extra corpse and a pool of blood on the ground.
Seeing one companion after another being stabbed by a spear and falling to the ground and dying, how could it end well if he was to be caught up? So they were left with only one thought: Run, run! Ahead is the position of the friendly army, and on the horizon you can already see Gao Wupi's troops waiting for you, as long as you run there, you can live!
At this moment, the Gao clan Qi soldiers were already dumbfounded.
Judging from their position, the ranks of the Lu people looked neat enough, while on the other side was the broken Lu Qiu Ming Division, which was rolling backwards in this direction.
"It's herding sheep...... someone muttered.
Gao Wupi stood on the chariot surrounded by guards, watching this battle, and was furious.
Qi State can't beat Jin and Chu, but it is a first-class good hand to bully weak neighbors, Beiyan, Ju, and Lu all have to prostrate under their obscenity, especially Lu State, because when Zhou Gong and Taigong were both cooperative and competitive, the two countries were often compared for comparison.
Qi people are wolves, Lu people are sheep, and Dr. Qi is used to bullying Lu Guo, so he has been instilling the younger generation in this way......
But now! Under Zhao Wuxian's training, the sheep grew sharp horns and smacked them the wolf's belly, making them look down on people! "Qi people's faces have been lost by Lu Qiuming!" Gao Wupi was furious, but he made a correct choice.
Gao Wupi raised the command flag high, and the rows of lightly armed archers behind him stepped forward, and among the eight or nine thousand people in the rear army he led, there were four thousand who held the bow! It took up a full half, enough for the enemy to suffer heavy losses before they could get close.
The archers, all good archers recruited from the villages, each of them stuck a few feathered arrows into the ground, and then drew their arrows and took their bows, and when the banner was under his command and the drums sounded, they fired them forward.
But in front of them, there were not only the Lu people who were pursuing, but also the Qi people who ran dizzily and ran straight towards the military formation......
"The Lu army is trying in vain to drive away the rout and disrupt our army's formation, and those who dare to enter the battle a hundred steps before will be shot and killed!"
Gao Wupi's orders were crisp and cold, although he was not as good as Guoxia, but as a prince, how could he not know about military affairs? Thanks to the pressure brought by the Chen family, the Shiqing of the Qi people still maintain their vitality and vigilance, because if they are not careful, they will be wiped out!
"Yui!"
Under the order, the sound of the bowstring trembling sounded one after another, and the arrow flew straight out, shooting the first Qi person to enter this death forbidden area, he stared at the arrow that came out of his chest, looked ahead incredulously, and stretched out his hand for a long time, as if he wanted to ask for help.
However, General Gao's orders were ruthlessly executed, but all Qi people who dared to cross the thunder pool were shot indiscriminately, and death was in front of them, which caused the Qi people to rout in front of the rear army as if they had hit a transparent wall, and they could only bypass the sides and drill behind the formation......
Gao Wupi looked at Lu Ren, who was already a little tired, and sneered.
"Although I don't know who Lu will be on the other side, but I am waiting for him here, he will definitely have nothing to do!"
……
"Stop!" The pursuing Lu army Ran Qiu's department was also far away half a mile away, so that the panting Lu soldiers stopped, he looked at the neatly groomed Gao Wupi department opposite, and frowned.
"The Qi army general is better at fighting than the Xiangliang just now, I wanted to rush into his formation with the rout, but I didn't expect him to be so decisive, he didn't hesitate to shoot the Qi people, but also to ensure the order of the military formation, it seems that I thought too much......" Ran Qiu smiled self-deprecatingly, in this rout, they probably stabbed a thousand Qi people to death, and the results were quite fruitful, and the Lu soldiers were tired enough.
"Sima, the Qi people have gathered the defeated soldiers, looking at the posture, is it to fight against us, do you want the soldiers to re-array?" Ran Qiu's herald, Guan Zhou's father, came to ask.
Ran Qiu thought for a while and said, "No, we will evacuate." ”
"Evacuate?" Guan Zhou's father was dumbfounded, "Didn't Sima say that he wanted to entangle the rear army of Qi people so that they couldn't evacuate calmly?" ”
"The Qi army is twice as numerous as ours, and it is not good to engage head-on. What's more, after we appeared, they could no longer evacuate with peace of mind. ”
"Sima means ......"
Ran Qiu explains, "When I was in Onozawa, I fought against Yanagishita and learned a lot from him. If this happens to the thief, he will never fight against him, and I will learn his tactics today. ”
He suddenly smiled happily: "You lead the soldiers to retreat a few miles away to drink water and rest, and leave a team of scouts to observe the movements of the Qi people." If no one moves, neither will I; If the Qi people dare to go north, I will hang behind them, far and near, but I will not go up to engage in battle; Qi was so popular that he turned back to fight with us, so he relied on the advantage of being familiar with the terrain and having few people and no baggage, and escaped into the woods to avoid. ”
"In this way, the Qi people will not be able to fight, and they will not be able to walk, and when they march in the territory of the enemy, they must always be on guard against us, and the speed will be greatly reduced, so that my purpose will be achieved...... Hold them back like this, and when the cavalry and vanguard light troops sent by the general arrive, these Qi people will not be able to escape! (To be continued.) )
