Chapter 126: The Mixing of Maitreya

After making a decision, Zhao Yu thought of another thing! I couldn't help but look up at Chong Shiheng's face curiously, and asked, "Why did Zhong Ping suddenly have such a plan?" This king remembered that Zhongping had a lot of regret about offering this plan to this king, thinking that it hurt people, but now why did he suddenly change his mind? ”

Chong Shiheng smiled bitterly: "Lord Wang, Xia Guan just got the news sent by Kuaima, Cheng (Lin) Xianggong went to war against the Mengshan bandits, but he didn't want to lose a battle, and nearly a thousand people were lost, and that's it, the heavy grain and grass were lost." For the time being, there is no supply of grain and grass to start a war, and after the Mengshan thieves get this batch of grain, grass and weapons, I am afraid that they will have to expand a lot of troops! ”

Zhao Yu's face changed drastically, and he became dignified and abnormal. "Quick! Take this battle report to the king and take a closer look! ”

Chong Shiheng naturally carried this battle report with him, and immediately took it out to Zhao Yu. The more Zhao Yu looked, the more solemn his face became. Although the war report is inevitably embellished, such as writing the responsibility for the defeat lightly. But Zhao Yu still saw some important things from it.

Although Cheng Lin is a literati commander, he still has a bit of a taste of underestimating the enemy. However, the other party is obviously not incompetent, and actually used the trick of luring the enemy to go deeper, and deceived Cheng Lin into being defenseless, but there was an ambush of Cheng Lin in the back, which led to victory. Although Cheng Lin fought desperately to kill the enemy, he also broke through, and when he was suddenly nearby, he only lost a thousand people.

This is not the problem of the leader of the Mengshan bandits, but the Mengshan bandits' combat effectiveness is too low and too low.

From this point of view, the leader of the Mengshan bandits should have learned the art of war. Otherwise, in ancient times, ordinary people couldn't even tell the difference between left and right, how could they come up with such a plan out of thin air?

Maitreya's religion is mixed into it, and it seems to be true! Ordinary bandits don't have such abilities! I just don't know how deep Maitreya is in it. Was this group of Mengshan thieves instigated by the Maitreya Sect, or did the Maitreya Sect send people to help them after the Mengshan thieves rose up, trying to lure them into the Maitreya Sect?

No matter which one it is, Zhao Yu has already determined in his heart that the matter in Yizhou this time is not so easy to solve.

Because no matter what you do, experience is important, and rebellion is especially important. This can be seen from the successful rebels of all dynasties. In the last years of the Qin Dynasty, the world was in turmoil, and the first to rebel was Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, but it was Liu Bang who rebelled later.

Why is this happening?

Because the forerunners give the experience to the newcomers, so that they do not need to pay the price when facing some problems.

Maitreya has rebelled so many times, although it is said that it is a little old, and there are no successful examples, but some experiences are still the same. They were much more difficult than the ordinary peasant rebels, which can be seen from the fact that they were hiding in Yizhou.

Let's not talk about their eyes, but at least they didn't rush forward, calmed down and relied on Mengshan Mountain, and calmly dealt with the officials and soldiers. And they are not inactive in Mengshan, they have been silently recruiting troops and horses, sending small forces to plunder, secretly containing the taste of building high walls and slowly becoming kings.

"Immediately send an order down and transfer Zhang Meng and Xin Luyin's department to Dongkou Town." Zhao Yu said, threw an arrow on the ground, and his own soldiers stepped forward to lead the troops.

"Let Hu Yanzhuo come to see this king immediately!" Zhao Yu commanded again.

It didn't take long for the burly Hu Yanzhuo to enter the big tent. Hu Yanzhuo is still as arrogant as ever. "Wow! So many people! Looks like something big must be going on! Lord Wang, your name is the end of the future, but are you ready to fight at night? ”

Although Zhao Yu knew that Hu Yanzhuo's surname was like this, he couldn't help frowning slightly, and shouted in a somewhat dissatisfied tone: "Be serious!" ”

Hu Yanzhuo pursed his lips disapplausively, but he didn't dare to contradict Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu didn't see Hu Yanzhuo's pouting expression, and said, "You immediately take the soldiers and horses of your headquarters and build a camp in the east of Dongkou Town!" ”

Hu Yanzhuo muttered a few words in disappointment, but still honestly accepted the order.

Dongkou Town is a typical Jingdong Road town, because most of the goods are Bianliang City in the west of Jingdong East Road, so although the town has four gates, but in fact, the east gate and the west gate are the main gates, and the north and south gates are very small, which is enough for three people to walk side by side, enter a carriage, and have to clear the city gate before you can enter.

The north and south gates are too small, and Zhao Yu is not afraid of the bullback thief escaping from here. With such a large and small gate, the soldiers and horses are not fast to leave the town, and coupled with the rabble of cattle back thieves, it is impossible to evacuate quietly. Even if there is a cover of night, it will definitely be discovered by the scouts of the Shengjie army.

The most important thing is that if the bullback thief goes from here, Zhao Yu can calmly come and attack him one and a half. That is, after waiting for some of the bullback thieves' minions to come out, the Shengjie army attacked suddenly, and there were restrictions on the city gate, and the bullback thieves in the city could only watch the Shengjie army slaughter their comrades outside the city.

And they won't be able to shoot arrows on the top of the city! There are their comrades down there!

This kind of battle is a big blow to morale. Think about it, someone slaughters someone you know well in front of you, but you can't do anything about it, can you watch the enemy show off your might, can your morale be high?

Zhao Yu seemed to leave two doors for the cattle thief to escape, but in fact, it was a strategy to surround three and lack one.

Chong Shiheng couldn't help but sigh on the side: "Is there really a natural talent in this world?" Although the prince is in military affairs, many simple places are full of loopholes. On the battlefield, he has an admirable military command talent. ”

Zhao Yu smiled and asked people to bring the map. This map is certainly not a map of the government's inventory. In fact, although Dongkou Town is not unimportant, it is only an inland town anyway, and the government does not have the energy to draw such an accurate map.

This map was drawn by Tanma himself ascending to the heights to observe, and then finding a few local people to inquire. It's very simple, and in some places, if you look closely, you can find that the distortion is relatively large.

After watching it for a while, Zhao Yu only felt dizzy. Shaking his head, he said, "This thing!" Pit daddy! ”

Chong Shiheng's eyes widened, and he couldn't help asking, "Lord Wang, what did you mean by what you said just now?" Pit...... Father? Wasn't the first emperor a big deal? ”

Zhao Yu was stunned, and said a little sneeringly: "Oh! This one! It was created by this king out of boredom himself. Needless to say, the meaning of the pit is not how many people 'Lao Tzu' speak? Isn't this Lao Tzu a father? ”

Chong Shiheng cried and laughed and said: "The prince is really talented, but it's better not to say this in the future." If it is heard by the official, I am afraid that there will be a few more feet in the imperial study of the Wende Hall of the official family to impeach the prince! ”
