Chapter 50: The Ghost Lingers

The Chu army was trapped in the camp and nervous for a long time, but fortunately, the Sui army did not attack, as long as they did not come out, they simply ignored these Chu troops.

Even if the Sui army did not attack, Sikong was still entangled in his heart, and the more he ate, the less food he ate. Even if you eat one meal a day, you won't be able to last long.

I don't know when to wait for the reinforcements to rescue, Wang Rong regretted a little, why didn't he lie about the military situation and exaggerate the strength of some Sui troops?

Two thousand Sui troops, probably Lin Shihong of Yuzhang thought in his heart that the Sui army was almost wiped out at this time.

Yes, the Chu army successively sent Li Ba and his own two groups of troops, with a total of 30,000 soldiers and horses, and the Sui army of 2,000 would not resist the attack no matter what. Lin Shihong definitely couldn't think of his current situation, in this case, I'm afraid that reinforcements won't come for a while!

During this time, soldiers kept fleeing. They couldn't escape, and they were probably all captured by the Sui army.

As the days dragged on, the food became less and less, and Sikong Wang Rong didn't know what to do?

Lin Shihong of Yuzhang really thought so, there were a total of 30,000 troops, and the enemy army was only 2,000, and it was only a matter of time before they were wiped out by the Chu army.

I didn't complain that Lin Shihong thought so, Li Ba and Wang Rong both reported that the Sui army only had 2,000 remnants, and the two groups of Chu troops totaled 30,000, no matter what, it shouldn't be a problem to eliminate them.

Besides, Lin Shihong has just established the imperial court, and how many things need to be dealt with, and he still can't take care of the things on the front line.

Lin Shihong is expanding the army on a large scale, and the increase in the last expansion was taken away by Wang Rong, and he only has 30,000 troops in his hands, which is too little.

Lin Shihong expanded the army in his hand from 30,000 to 60,000, and as for the quality of the army, he still can't care about it, as long as there are more people. What Lin Shihong lacks most is weapons and equipment, where did he get the weapons and equipment to expand so many troops, everything is simple.

Since Sikong Wang Rong sent back the news, I haven't received any information for a long time. At first, Lin Shihong didn't feel anything, but after a long time, he felt that something was wrong.

In February, as a last resort, Lin Shihong sent people from Yuzhang to investigate, but several waves of people went but did not return. At this time, Lin Shihong felt that the situation was not good, was there something wrong with the 30,000 horses outside?

In late February, someone finally touched it, and of course, he watched from a distance, unable to get close to the Chu military camp. This man brought back the very bad news that his army was trapped north of Yokoyama.

Moreover, the number of Sui troops was not large, only 2,000 people.

Lin Shihong couldn't believe his ears when he heard it, what the fuck is this? 2,000 troops trapped their own 30,000 troops, is there a mistake!

In fact, Lu Chang deliberately let Lin Shihong's spies find out this information. Because, Wang Rong's army had long run out of food, most of the soldiers had fled, and only a few hundred of Wang Rong's people were left in the camp.

After the spies got the news and left, Wang Rong's use value was gone, so he wiped him out with a wave of his hand.

When Lin Shihong heard the news, he didn't know what to say, the 30,000 army was trapped by the 2,000 remnants, who would believe it?

However, can Lin Shihong not believe it?

From the end of the year, Li Ba led 15,000 troops to pursue the Sui army, and then, he sent 15,000 troops of Sikong Wang Rong.

This time, Lin Shihong didn't dare to be careless, he wanted to go out with nearly 60,000 troops in his hand to resolutely eliminate this Sui army. Although the 2,000 Sui army was not much, the side of the couch could not allow others to snore, and this disease of scabies must be solved.

The march of nearly 60,000 troops is not a small matter, and there is a lot of preparation to be made. Yuzhang City was jumping for a while, and Lin Shihong, the emperor of Great Chu, wanted to drive the expedition in person.

In mid-March, as soon as Qiē was ready, the Great Chu army drove out of the south gate of the city and marched in the direction of Hengshan.

As soon as Lin Shihong's army left the city, Lu Chang's spies detected the detailed information and ran back to report the news.

At this time, Lu Chang had already withdrawn the Xiaoguo army to rest. The new army has almost been trained, so the next battle is for these new troops to take on the heavy responsibility.

Lu Chang wanted to kill time, he had to wait for Xiao Mo to raise troops before destroying Lin Shihong, so Lin Shihong's power still had the value of use. If Lin Shihong is eliminated now, the war in Jiangnan is over, and the Great Sui Emperor raises an order, will he Lu Chang be able to go back?

Lu Chang would not play regular warfare with Lin Shihong, he used tactics such as blocking, harassment, and ambush to delay Lin Shihong's army and delay time as much as possible. At the same time, Lin Shihong's army was used to train troops.

Lin Shihong didn't know that his army went out of the city for nearly a hundred miles south and then went east. He thought that this place was safe, and he didn't know that Lu Chang's army had long been ambushed in the middle of the road.

In the afternoon of the next day, the army had just reached Pingling, and the army stretched for several miles.

Although Pingling is very inconspicuous, the foot of the mountain is densely vegetated, and it is easy to hide soldiers. The marching army of Chu was scattered, which brought excellent fighters to Lu Chang's ambush.

Lin Shihong's front army walked into the ambush site, and a cannon sounded, and bows and arrows were fired in the woods, causing the marching Chu army to suddenly turn on their backs, with countless casualties.

After a few rounds of bows and arrows, two thousand troops were killed in the woods and went straight to the rebels.

The Chu army was suddenly shot with bows and arrows, suffered huge casualties, and was in a mess, and then was cut and killed by ambushes, how could it be the enemy? The rebels shouted, fled in panic, and no one cared about resisting.

As soon as the cannon sounded, Lin Shihong, who was walking in the Chinese army, also heard it, it was broken, and the front army encountered an ambush.

"Quick, order the army to speed up its advance and destroy the Sui army."

Lin Shihong's Chinese army hurried forward and ran head-on into the rout of the front army.

Lin Shihong is so angry, what kind of army is this? At this point, it was defeated, and probably not even resistance turned into a rout.

Lin Shihong beheaded several defeated troops in a row, and shouted: "Hurry up and return to the army for me, and there will be no forgiveness if you retreat!" ”

Taken by Lin Shihong's obscenity, the rout army turned around and ran back.

When Lin Shihong arrived at the ambush site, in addition to the dead and wounded Chu army everywhere, where was there still a shadow of half of the Sui army? Ran early.

Pingbai injured hundreds of nearly a thousand soldiers, Lin Shihong didn't even see a shadow of the Sui army, do you think Lin Shihong can not be angry?

After finding a few leaders of the former army, Lin Shihong generally learned that the ambushed Sui army was only about 2,000, and it seemed that the remnants of the Sui army were still defeated.

Nima, the ghost is not gone!

Lin Shihong would not pay so much attention to it in normal times, the problem is that this gang of remnants is too tricky, and the two groups of troops sent out are more auspicious and less auspicious, can they be ignored?

Lin Shihong blushed his face, and made up his mind with hatred in his heart, everything else can be put aside first, and this remnant army must be eliminated.
