124 increase in troops and decrease in focus
It is said that the front army of the Church army turned into a rear team and retreated in an orderly manner, and the anti-thieves and horses tried to follow closely after them, but the formation was overwhelmed by the Templars and became a mess. I could only watch as the army of the Church retreated calmly.
The anti-thief commander Peng Tuo was furious, so he ordered the army to encircle and suppress the Templar camp, but after all, the feet could not outrun on all four legs, and the formation was in chaos, where could the infantry stop the cavalry rushing at high speed, so they had to watch the Templars roar through the formation, cut a pair from south to north, and chased in the direction of the retreat of the church army.
"Bastard!" Peng Tu teeth itched, "Quickly rectify the situation and follow me to chase the enemy!" ”
When the thieves gathered all the people, the army master brought Peng Tuo a military report that shocked him.
"In the battle just now, our army lost 4,731 people and 200 people were seriously wounded. Officers and soldiers were killed in 1,242 people. ”
"What?" Peng Tuo took the case, "Our army has four times as many casualties as the enemy? ”
"Exactly!" The main book is also quite suspicious, he is really unheard of such a brave officer and soldier, with less fighting, more battles, in the situation of extremely unfavorable conditions, almost surrounded by the situation can calmly retreat, and the number of people killed before retreating has an absolute advantage. "General Qiyu, I wonder if you heard the battle report just now?"
"Huh?" Peng Tuo snorted coldly, "What does the master book mean?" Don't you question the general's unintentional military situation? ”
The master hurriedly made amends, "The old man didn't mean this, he just wanted to remind the general that the old man just reported that 'the officers and soldiers died 1,242 people in the battle.'" ’”
"So what?"
"The war report said, '1,242 killed!' There is no mention of the number of wounded. What does this mean? The master simply handed the battle report to Peng Tuo's hand.
Peng Tuo took it casually, looked at it and looked at it, and his eyes suddenly widened, "How come?" How can there be no wounded? "The officers and troops were defeated and retreated, that is, they naturally did not have time to take the wounded with them. Where did the wounded go? The answer is obvious...... Killed in battle, no wounded...... All of them died. Lunatic...... It's all crazy. "Where did this come from?"
"General Hui. Unbeknownst to them, their flag is very strange, with neither the last name of the commander nor the location of the territory. However, when the old man was in Jizhou, he heard that the Church of Our Lady of Jinan was marked by cross stripes. The flags of this group of officers and soldiers are also dominated by cross stripes. Presumably, these people are from Jinan. ”
"Jinan? Luan Yi? Peng Tuo's round eyes narrowed slightly. Last month, General Tiangong sent an urgent report, saying that Zhu Yingqu, who attacked Jinan, was defeated and captured by Luan Yi and ambushed. Some time ago, I came to the war again to report that the Qingyan Erzhou uprising army was wiped out by reinforcements, and the general of the official army who rushed to support was still Jinan Cheng Luanyi. This Luan Yi has two hits...... It is worthy of being a great talent! Now, he has come to the boundary of Yuzhou again. He must not be allowed to make waves here. "It must be eradicated while it is still on hold. Passing on the general's order, everyone set off immediately after the assembly to pursue Luan Yi's dog thief. ”
"......"
However, by the time the Yellow Turban army was reunited, the Church soldiers and horses were long gone.
Peng Tuo led the army, chased all the way along the traces of the march, chased out more than 200 miles in a company, and marched for three days and nights without seeing the enemy. It is only from the occasional traces of buried pots and rice that the church soldiers and horses are still fleeing in this direction, and the farther they escape, the fewer stove pits, from the original 1,000 stove pits, to 800,600, until only 300 remain. I think it must be a decline in morale, and a large number of deserters have been produced.
Peng Tuo was overjoyed when he saw this, and ordered his soldiers to speed up the march and chase after him with all his might. After chasing for another day and night, Fang Jue was wrong. He suddenly remembered that three days ago, the battle report said that Luan Yi's soldiers and horses were only killed after the first battle, and no one was injured, which shows that the discipline of Luan Yi's team is clear, and the high morale can be described as terrifying. How could there be deserters in such an elite army?
He vaguely remembered that he seemed to have seen similar examples of battles in books. Which book is it? He ordered his attendants to fetch all his books and look back and forth, not the Analects, not the University...... It's it - "Spring and Autumn".
The two big characters of the Spring and Autumn Period jumped on the cover of the packaging printed and encapsulated by Shencai paper, and below the cover, there were four small characters - printed by the Luan family.
"The Luan family? Luan Yi...... It's Luan Yi again. Peng Tuo was furious and tore off the cover before flipping through the contents. Yes, that's right. Increase the number of troops and reduce the number of ...... Luan Yi used the strategy of increasing troops and reducing the focus. In "Spring and Autumn", when the grandson of Qi fought against Pang Juan of Wei, he used the strategy of increasing troops and reducing the stove. He first used the strategy of wanting to capture the old and indulge, and lured Pang Juan to take the bait under the pretense of retreating from defeat, and on the way to retreat after defeat, he cut the stove pit where the pot was buried in half every day, causing Pang Juan to mistakenly think that there were a large number of deserters under Sun Tzu's soldiers and horses, so he pursued frantically. Who knows, when he chased to Maling, he found that Sun Tzu had already set up an ambush here, the Qi army fired thousands of arrows, and the Wei army was in chaos, trampling on each other, and there were countless casualties. Pang Juan knew that he had no power to return to the sky, so he killed himself here.
Peng Tuo suddenly realized. I was secretly glad that I found it early, otherwise I would really have fallen for Luan Yi's way. "This kind of little trick is now discovered by General Ben, what can I do?" Peng Tuo was triumphant and decided to deal with it with a plan. So he took out the map and looked at it repeatedly, and finally found a suitable place for ambushes fifty miles to the east -- Zhan Peak, a continuous mountain range.
Peng Tuo immediately sent a large number of scouts to investigate, but the reply he received made him very puzzled. There was no shadow of ambush in the mountain at all, but instead of ambushing soldiers, even the traces of burying pots and cooking disappeared. The mountains and forests are quiet, except for the grass and trees, birds and beasts, and there are no people.
Peng Tuo was not at ease, and sent his henchmen to investigate in person, and the result was the same, there were no ambushes, nothing, and even the dirt in the forest did not leave any footprints of the march.
Peng Tuo was surprised, "Nothing? So where did Luan Yi go? Can you put on wings and fly? ”
Peng Tuo was puzzled, and it happened that Bo Cai sent a message urging him to return to the army chief at this time, and as a last resort, he had to return to the west for the time being and return back.
On the way back to the army, he was still thinking about Luan Yi's movements, and he always felt that his right eye was beating non-stop, and he had an ominous premonition. But where is ominous, he can't say! After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't help but smile, and secretly sighed that my army was in hand, and the number was far greater than that of Luan Yi, so what was there to worry about? Don't scare yourself.
It's just that such comforting words only wandered around in his heart for a while, and the worry jumped on his face again. "Where did Luan Yi go? That's nearly 10,000 people! How could it suddenly disappear? ”
At night, Peng Tuo tossed and turned in the marching tent, unable to sleep. At this moment, there seemed to be a scream in his sensitive ears, which startled him to sit up from the couch and listen carefully with his ears pricked up. The night when I couldn't see my fingers returned to the tranquility I had just had, as if nothing had happened and nothing had been heard. He asked the guards guarding outside the tent loudly, "Peng Jiu, did you hear anything just now?" ”
"Huh?" Peng Jiu shook his sleeping dazed head, "No?" Didn't hear anything! ”
"Oh!" Peng Tuo laughed at himself, and secretly sighed that he was afraid that he had too many things on his mind in the past two days and had a delusion. Or maybe some owl that doesn't open its eyes has squawked! "Cheer me up!"
"Whoa!"
Peng Tuofu lay down again, and before he could lie down, he heard the sound of "Ah ......" again, this time not only did he hear it, but even Peng Jiu outside the tent heard it clearly, and exclaimed loudly, "General, someone is attacking the camp." ”
However, at this time, it was too late to find out that the camp was attacked, as early as nearly half an hour ago, Luan Yi let 200 masked dead soldiers climb over the wall and sneak into the thief camp, and suddenly rose up at the second watch and forcibly seized the camp gate. The brigade then killed, went straight to the camp, killed people when they saw them, set fire everywhere, and screamed one after another.
The thieves have been tracking for days, and Zhao Yun, who was disguised as the main force of the church, has long been exhausted, and now he finally has to turn back, the tense strings are relaxed, and he is indescribably sleepy, and he is sleeping soundly. Where did they think that the officers and soldiers would enter the camp at this time, they were at a loss, and they were in a mess, and even the night guards were scattered by their own people.
"Avenge the death of a brother. May Our Lady bless them......"
Praise of Our Lady filled every corner of the camp, and the flames set fire to most of the military tents, and the shouts of murder were incessant. At this moment, the camp of the Yellow Turban Army under the moonlit night has become a killing place and slaughterhouse for the church guards, blood is splattered everywhere, dyeing the soil red of life, and everywhere you can see the scene of the guards chasing the thieves.
Outside the big tent of the Chinese army, Peng Tuo, who was wearing armor and riding a horse crookedly, saw this scene, his face was first green and then purple, "Wow, yes, yes...... Luan Yi, I don't share the sky with you. Come and meet the enemy with the general. ”
"General, don't ......" The master of the army stepped forward and grabbed Peng Tuo's reins, and sighed: "The army's heart is in chaos, and the position is lost." If you fight again, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg and killing yourself. The general is the pillar of our army, and he can't die easily, so it's better to return to the Changsha for the time being. ”
Peng Tuo scolded angrily, "Fart." General Ben has fled, what can these 50,000 brothers do? ”
"My general. At this time, don't think about 50,000 brothers. Where are there still 50,000 brothers, if you continue to fight like this, it won't take long to run out! The master bookkeeper was so anxious that he burst into tears, "Let's go!" If you don't leave, even you and I will have no way to escape! ”
Peng Tuo saw that the general trend had indeed gone and there was no way to recover it, so he no longer stubbornly held his opinion, "In this way, for the time being, listen to the master book for the time being, and go out of the village with this general." Then he turned his horse's head and broke through to the west.
The remaining thirty or so guards followed, and the main book was mixed with the relatives, rushing wildly.
Luan Yi caught this particularly fierce horse team in his sight in an instant, and through the bright armor of the leader of the leader, he immediately judged that the identity of the leader of the horse team was extraordinary, and it must be the main general of the army, Peng Tuo himself. The hammer came to chase after him, "The traitor Peng Tuo, where to run!" ”
