Chapter 87: Jinzhou Encampment

(a)

As a result, the Han army sent troops "unexpectedly". A group of Han soldiers yawned and sleepy-eyed one by one, and in Xingcheng, there were still a group of soldiers who were going around the brothels and casinos to rummage through the soldiers who were still lingering. And General Zhu, while napping on the horse, was thinking that this time he could finally write a very good official document: "Surprise, sudden attack." "Well, that's it. Of course, there is no need to delve into who this unexpected "it" refers to.

Wei Changfeng was riding on the horse, and he nodded sleepily, listening to the scolding of the soldiers in a low voice, he could only turn a deaf ear. Anyway, there are still three days to go from Jinzhou, and if General Zhu wants to perform, he can perform, at least before arriving in Jinzhou, the soldiers can still rest.

The sound of horses' hooves behind him made Bai Qi come to Wei Changfeng's side, he pointed his hand back, and said in a low voice: "Your guards have been arranged in the rear army." ”

Wei Changfeng nodded gratefully. He understood what Bai Qi meant, Bai Qi was telling him that Li Qianyue had been arranged in the rear army and was with those soldiers in Xingcheng.

Bai smiled and rode back to his ranks. Wei Changfeng was finally relieved, no matter what, Li Qianyue was safe, although it was really not reassuring for General Zhu to personally command all the 80,000 troops on the grounds that the separation of the two teams led to defeat last time, but after all, this is 80,000 people, and Li Qianyue is in the rear team, no matter what, this is the safest place for the entire army. It's just that I don't know what happened to the enemy army in Jinzhou? There won't be another sneak attack, right?

The commander of Jinzhou, Xiaoxian Wang Urian, really wanted to sneak attack, but he didn't want to sneak attack the Han army, but wanted to sneak attack Age.

That's right, it's Agg. This bastard is really a god, not only escaped death when the Han army raided Xingcheng, and escaped to Jinzhou safely, but also took it upon himself to mobilize all 30,000 horses in Jinzhou to raid the Han army, not only saved Urian, but also defeated the Han army. Urian had to petition the Emperor for a commendation.

However, this is not what makes him angry the most, what makes him angry the most is......

"Brother, are you there?" A gentle voice rang out outside the tent.

Urian sighed.

That's what makes him the angriest. Ah Ge said that he was recuperating in Xingcheng, but secretly wrote a letter to his sister, saying that Urian forced him to withdraw from the marriage, and he had no choice but to withdraw from the marriage. As a result, my sister came in person, not only did she come, but the timing was really good enough, just when he was defeated and Ag saved his life!

"Brother?" Nina's gentle voice rang out again.

"I'm here." Urian had no choice but to agree.

The curtain was lifted, and Nina walked in.

She was a plump woman, but not fat, with a high breast, a round face, black hair coiled in a thick braid on her head, and her hands were white and smooth, elegantly held in front of her chest.

"Sister, sit down." Urian said. He didn't ask Nina why he came to his tent in the middle of the night, because he could guess why.

Nina sat down slowly and asked, "Are you still angry with Ag?" ”

Urian suddenly amplified his voice: "Why am I not angry with him?" Because he saved my life? ”

"He also saved 20,000 Donghu soldiers." Nina's voice grew louder.

Urian suddenly stopped talking, walked to the door, and said to the guards outside the door: "Stand back, ten feet away from the tent, and do not come closer, but if anyone crosses this distance without permission, there will be no mercy!" ”

Several guards knew that the Urian siblings were only afraid of making a big noise, and it was possible to make a move, don't look at Nina, who is usually very elegant, and started a fire...... It's still not good, they immediately retreated, and they all stood facing outward, not even daring to turn their heads back, and they all prayed in their hearts, these sisters and brothers don't fight too much, otherwise they are only afraid that they will be responsible.

The guards were on guard in fear, but they heard the sound of horses' hooves, and Ag came on horseback. When he saw that the guards were far away from the big tent, he felt strange in his heart, and was about to move forward, but one of the guards had already blocked in front of Ah Ge: "Commander Agwan, King Xiaoxian has an order, no one is allowed to enter within ten zhang of the tent, otherwise there will be no mercy." ”

Ah Geyi frowned: "What to do?" Why do you want to do this? ”

The guard hesitated for a moment, then replied, "Princess Nina is here." ”

Ag snorted. Nina was called by him by letter, and he arrived in the evening, but he had not yet had the opportunity to talk to Nina in detail, he saw that Nina arrived late, and he was afraid that she would be tired from the journey, so he didn't dare to disturb, but he didn't expect Nina to run to Urian's tent in the middle of the night.

"Princess Nina and King Xiaoxian are talking about things." The guard added, but still blocked Agg's way.

Ah Ge raised his hand: "There is an urgent military situation, and the military situation has been delayed, can you take care of it?" ”

This is not a lie. Tan Malay reported that yesterday the 80,000 troops of the Han army left the city at night, and the target was directly aimed at Jinzhou, which is not a trivial matter, right? If it weren't for such military intelligence, why did he come to Urian without sleep in the middle of the night?

The guard was very embarrassed, rubbed his hands and hesitated for a while, but had to explain truthfully: "Princess Nina is now quarreling with King Xiaoxian, and it may be a fight. ”

"For what?" Agda is strange.

(2) The guard secretly scolded Ag for being stupid, and replied: "I, I guess it's because of you, Captain Agwan, but I'm guessing blindly, and it may not be right at all." ”

Ag was stunned for a moment, and finally understood. He pondered for a long time, and finally reached out and handed the message of the horse to the guard: "Wait for Princess Nina and King Xiaoxian to fight...... When you are done talking, you should immediately send this message to King Xiaoxian. ”

On the third day, the Han army arrived at the city of Jinzhou. This time, Zhu Lingxue was obedient, he divided 80,000 people into eight teams, camped in eight places, and the Donghu army attacked in the middle of the night, one will not succeed in two places, two will not succeed, and three will not, anyway, 80,000 people can always help each other. Although all the generals are opposed, since Zhu Ling is the commander of the whole army, he is naturally only seven buckets high, and he is rich and has three cars, although he is only one bucket less, and he has two cars less than he learns, but it is enough, how can he listen to his subordinates, and forcibly order the generals to camp according to his arrangement.

It wasn't until the camp was completed that Zhu Ling finally realized that what the generals said was right: if he camped like this, he was not afraid of sneak attacks, but it was impossible to attack the enemy, because if he wanted to attack, he could only gather 80,000 people first, but in the process of his concentration, the enemy had already discovered it. It seems that he has arranged a position that is only suitable for defense and not for attack.

If the Donghu army is strong, so that the Han army has to defend, the problem is that the total strength of the Donghu army is only 50,000, and they put 10,000 people in the city to guard, and the other 40,000 are camped outside the city to confront the Han army in order to give full play to the strengths of their cavalry, 80,000 against 40,000, but this kind of camping method, it is really speechless.

Since General Zhu was able to climb to such a high position with such an incompetent body, he naturally has his strengths, and this strength is: making excuses. As soon as he found that this kind of encampment method could only be used against the Donghu people to consume grain and grass, Zhu Ling immediately announced: The purpose of this encampment is to let the Han soldiers rest well, recover from the fatigue of the march, and then attack, and when the attack comes, the method of encampment will naturally be changed, which is completely the result of his general Zhu's strategy.

The generals had no choice but to pout and nod their heads in agreement. There's no way, General Zhu's mouth is too big, and no one can say anything about him.

However, no matter how big General Zhu's mouth was, he could not order the Donghu army to act according to his plan. After two battles in two days, although the Han army had the advantage in numbers, it was simply unable to win, and the Donghu army was only an invincible and undefeated trend. This made General Zhu very annoyed, although he said in front of the generals that "the Donghu cavalry has an advantage over our infantry after all", but he could not help but admit that his strength was almost twice that of the Donghu army, and it was impossible for the Donghu army to carry out large-scale movements in order to hold Jinzhou, which had greatly limited the cavalry advantage of the Donghu army, and it was still impossible to win under such conditions.

It can't be said that General Zhu didn't work hard, of course he wanted to find a way to defeat the Donghu army, so until the fixed watch, General Zhu was still sitting in the tent, facing the map there. He had been together for a long time, but he still couldn't find a way, and in the end, he could only decide: to attack again tomorrow.

He stretched his waist and was about to go to bed, when the guard came to report: "Ya General Sun Li has something to ask to see." ”

Zhu Ling sighed. He didn't quite understand what Sun Li was doing. If there is a military situation, it is reasonable for Zhao Zi'an to come to see him as General Chang, but since Sun Li is here, he can't be absent.

Sun Li entered the tent, saluted respectfully, and said to Zhu Ling: "The last general saw that it was difficult for our army to win for a while recently, so he came up with a way to ask the general to decide. ”

Zhu Ling sighed again.

Seeing that Zhu Ling didn't say anything, Sun Li had to continue: "The last general thinks that we might as well sneak attack the Donghu military camp at night!" ”

Zhu Ling didn't sigh this time, but snorted. In his heart, he angrily scolded Sun Li for delaying his kung fu and sleeping by mistake.

Although General Zhu is an expert in fighting inside and an outsider, he is not an idiot after all. Previously, the Donghu people defeated him by sneak attack, how could they not guard against his sneak attack? He still understands this truth, he just didn't expect Sun Li to be so stupid, and he actually met him in private and put forward such a bad idea.

"You can mention it again tomorrow when the account is raised," Zhu Ling replied lightly, "Let everyone discuss." "I was snickering in my heart, thinking that if you Sun Li proposed this method tomorrow, how would everyone laugh at you.

Sun Li shook his head: "General Zhu, the last general thinks that this method is better than what he said in private, because this method can only be effective with special people, otherwise it will be ineffective." ”

"Huh?" Zhu Ling was a little surprised. What does it mean to be "effective with special people"? Because it takes a special person to be effective, it can't be said openly, what kind of logic is this? He felt a little uneasy in his heart, feeling that Sun Li's words were not as upright as they were on the surface.
