Early the next morning, according to the plan discussed last night, King Li first passed the army to the army, and he would drive the imperial expedition in person seven days later, first attack the Chen allied army, and then act according to the plan, if he could win, he would leave Xuzhou and attack the Chen state. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

There are only seven days, and the task of mobilizing troops and horses must be completed within these few days, but the good thing is that there are a large number of men and horses stationed in Yanzhou East County, and they can be recruited at any time, so it is not rushed.

Seven days later, King Li's army moved leisurely, the army opened from Yecheng, the checkpoints along the road had already given the green light, the local soldiers had already taken care of everything, so as to gather troops, and marched to Dongjun, where King Li's army had more than 50,000 people.

This expedition did not cover up, but went to Xuzhou with great fanfare, and gathered dozens of soldiers under his command, which was managed by Wang Shouren, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and led by Zhang Liao and Cao Bao, because of Yang Zaixing's recommendation, King Li temporarily left Chen to serve in the army, and Wang Shuang and Wei Yan assisted two fierce generals, and the lineup looked in the past.

The army stopped, did not seek speed, and directly extended the original three-day journey to five days, and Zhou Yu, who had already received the news, sent people to meet him, but the soldiers and horses of Chen Guolian's army had already been killed under Pengcheng City, so it was also suggested that King Li's army should not get too close for the time being, and garrisoned troops outside Pengcheng City.

The two sides are in a position of horns against each other, but they also faintly form a three-point confrontation with Liancheng, and the coalition forces themselves are not too persecutive, so they are relatively stable with each other.

In the past two days, except for the tentative robbery of the camp by each party, no large-scale battle has broken out.

King Li sat in the tent with the dragon robe on his side, and said sideways: "Yangming, make arrangements, tonight send Wang Shuang and Wei Yan to lead 5,000 soldiers and horses, march together from the left and right, raid the enemy's camp, burn and kill, and it is best to destroy the grain and grass." ”

Wang Shouren nodded and said: "The enemy army deliberately delayed time, and His Majesty's earlier concerns were mostly confirmed, and a surprise attack at this time is a good strategy, but Weichen has a proposal to order the Pengcheng army to open the city to deceive the enemy, lure it to attack late at night, and launch an attack in Wengcheng." ”

King Li frowned and said: "The scouts have already listened, the commander of the enemy army is Yue Fei, and there is a strategist Fang Xuanling under him, both of them are more vigilant, I am afraid they will not easily enter the trap." ”

Wang Shouren said with a smile: "Your Majesty can be worry-free, but you can first order a group of 10,000 people, cover their faces with fluffy grass, take advantage of the darkness of the night, quietly enter the city, the enemy army is closely monitored, and they will definitely detect the soldiers and horses of these 10,000 people, they can't miss the opportunity, your majesty is cheating, they will not attack the Chinese army, the biggest possibility is to raid Pengcheng." ”

King Li waved his hand and said: "This is not necessarily, if we divide 10,000 troops and leave, plus Wang Shuang and Wei Yan's sneak attack department, there are only more than 30,000 people left in this army, if the enemy army pours in, won't it put us in passivity?" It is not advisable, and it is better to seek stability now. ”

Wang Shouren was helpless and said: "Your Majesty, if the enemy army attacks rashly, our army is just profitable, even if it cannot completely annihilate the enemy army, it can bring advantages to the two generals and shake their foundation." ”

King Li is still not at ease: "Advancing at both ends, if the enemy army focuses on attacking one end, it will bring heavy casualties, and if it is exchanged for victory, it seems that the gains outweigh the losses." ”

Wang Shouren continued: "Since Your Majesty is not at ease, I can order Zhang Liao to lead a group of 10,000 people to ambush in the gap with Pengcheng, no matter which way the enemy attacks, it can effectively support. ”

Li Wang condensed his eyebrows and thought about it, Wang Shouren's proposal was not bad, the enemy's defense line was thick, how could it be so easy for 150,000 soldiers and horses, plus they could surround it without fighting, but it made the battle situation more and more foggy, Wang Shouren also understood what he meant, nothing more than wanting to use a victory to warn Yuan Shu and Li Shimin.

clenched his fists and said: "Okay, just do as you say, but I plan to mix reality and fiction, let Zhang Liao only lead 5,000 people to garrison the camp, give the enemy a false impression, make them think that my own army is still in the camp, and the remaining 20,000 soldiers will go out with me and ambush at the junction of Pengcheng and the camp, do you think it is feasible?" ”

Wang Shouren's eyes lit up, the best strategy he originally planned was to get out of the cage of the Chinese army, but after all, King Li's status was noble, and he couldn't let him go into battle casually, so as not to tell the truth and be suspected of assassinating King Li.

Hugging his fists, he said: "Your Majesty has made up your mind, and you should act as a courtier, Your Majesty, please give an order." ”

King Li cleared his throat and said: "I ordered Wei Yan and Wang Shuang to lead a group of 5,000 men and horses, ambush at night, wait for the opportunity to act, if you encounter the enemy's grain and grass, do not hesitate, and burn it directly." ”

"The last general commands!" The two of them looked happy, as long as there was a fight.

King Li changed his mind and said: "Zhang Liao, you will lead a group of 5,000 people to patrol the camp overnight, and make the lights of the camp the same as usual, and you also have to show your figure from time to time, understand?" ”

Zhang Liao clenched his fists and said: "The last general understands, please rest assured Your Majesty." ”

King Li nodded and said, "Cao Bao, you go and order 10,000 horses to cover up your figure, and then you can quietly leave the camp and march to Pengcheng." ”

"The Last General Commands ......"

King Li changed his mind and said: "Chen Dao, you are my lieutenant general, and today I will let you see, my hero in the north is not only your master, and my name should also be engraved with the word hero." ”

The army moved immediately, and a few hours later, with the departure of the two black lines running in different directions, two more armies came out of the camp one after another, but the one with more men and horses really concealed their figures, and the one with the few made some movement occasionally......

If Li Wang's soldiers are divided into four routes, the most dangerous is where Zhang Liao is, because the enemy army has come to harass every night for these two days, if the camp is found to be empty, it is inevitable that someone will come to rob the camp, tens of thousands of grain and grass will be piled up inside, if it is burned, it will become an irreparable loss.

However, King Li's current route has been arranged, even if the grain and grass are burned, most of them can wait for the follow-up grain and grass after two days of starvation, and I am afraid that there will be mutinies in other forces, but the Dahua army has already been twisted into hemp rope, even if King Li wants them to die, there will be no complaints, and it is not a big deal to be hungry for two days.

Quietly moving, the enemy's eyeliner was the first to notice that something was wrong, and he returned to the camp early, asking to see Yue Fei.

"What? Li Wangzhong's army has been divided? Dividing the troops in the middle of the night, there must be some intention. ”

Fang Xuanling was also a little dignified, and said: "King Li is the best at taking risks and plots, and this matter has to be summed up so as not to get into his way." ”

Yue Fei nodded silently and said, "Is there any news from Tie Xiaowei?" ”

Fang Xuanling shook his head and said: "There is no news for the time being, but according to the footsteps, at least Gepo who has left Yuzhou, it is inevitable that the news will be difficult to convey at this time." (To be continued.) )
