Episode 73: The Hungry Ghost Acts as Bait, and the Sharpshooter Becomes a Live Target
The arrival of Yuan Shu made the originally noisy camp tent suddenly quiet, and everyone thought that the horseman had won several victories in a row, and the limelight had already overshadowed Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shu did not allocate grain and grass without authorization, how could the horseman let him go.
However, just when everyone held their breath and waited for the groom to be furious, the groom actually walked to Yuan Shu's side with a smile: "Brother Highway, I also know that there is a shortage of food and grass, and it is not easy to allocate it, I have really worked hard for you recently!" ”
Yuan Shu had long been ready to be bombarded, but the horseman's statement undoubtedly made him fall directly into the clouds, he glanced at the horseman with a puzzled face, thinking that this was a bit abnormal, but the horseman had said this, he had to be cheeky and said: "Thank you Ma Taishou for your understanding, today Ben Taishou has come with enough food and grass, and he will try his best to make the soldiers full." ”
Huang Gai and Cao Hong, who were standing behind Yuan Shu, had already secretly glanced at the groom several times, and of course the groom knew what they meant, so he continued: "In that case, you should also ask your subordinates to open the stove and cook as soon as possible, so that the soldiers can satisfy their hunger as soon as possible!" ”
Yuan Shao, who was standing on the side, hurriedly said: "At present, there is still food in the army for the soldiers to enjoy, so there is no need to open the stove at this time, right?" ”
Ma Fu shook his head and said, "Yuan Alliance Master believes me again, it must be right!" ”
Yuan Shao saw that he was mysterious, and he didn't want to agree, but his current strength could not be underestimated, so he gave three points: "Okay, highway, you immediately send someone to do it, and you must let the soldiers eat a hot meal!" ”
After Yuan Shu received the order, he went down to Zhang Luo, and the horseman invited Yuan Shao aside and whispered to him: "Yuan League Master, the heaven-given opportunity is just around the corner, but I don't know if Yuan League Master is willing to listen to the next word?" ”
Yuan Shao hurriedly asked, "Hurry up." ”
Ma Fu said: "Now that Lu Bu is not in the Tiger Prison, Sun Taishou is like a piece of fat tempting Dong Thief. As long as we take advantage of the hunger of the soldiers to create an illusion in front of the Tiger Prison Pass, and then take the initiative to retreat, Zhang Liao and others in the Tiger Prison Pass will definitely lead the army to pursue, our soldiers are divided into two ways, one way secretly ambushes, give him a head-on blow, and the other road will directly attack the Tiger Prison Pass, so it will be a big setback to the enemy army, and the Tiger Prison Pass is at your fingertips! ”
Yuan Shao clapped his hands and praised, but he was still a little worried: "This plan is very good, but if Lu Bu rushes back, won't he give up his efforts?" ”
Ma Fu said very confidently: "For this point, Lord Yuan, please rest assured, I have already arranged it!" ”
Yuan Shao saw that he was full of confidence, and besides, he had won many battles now, so he didn't question it anymore, and immediately ordered all the princes to gather troops to wait for battle, and urged Yuan Shu to make a meal as soon as possible.
It didn't take long for a few colorful clouds to float over the Tiger Prison Pass, Yuan Shao looked up at the sky and happened to see this scene, so he said to Ma Teng and others beside him: "It seems that today is a good day!" ”
Ma Teng's mood was a little heavy, obviously he couldn't be happy, and he just prevaricated Yuan Shao's words. He originally thought that if Mafu, Cao Ying, Sun Jian and others went to capture Taigu Pass, they would definitely injure 1,000 enemies and 800 themselves, so they could also take the opportunity to weaken Mafu's strength, so that the gap between Mafu and his strength would remain within his acceptable range. But who would have thought that after three battles, Ma Teng's strength would increase instead of decreasing, which was really unacceptable to Ma Teng.
Yuan Shao also vaguely sensed Ma Teng's depression, but it was inconvenient for him to say anything at this time. To a certain extent, he wanted Ma Teng to fight with Ma Fu's nest, and only in this way was in his interests. If the two of them are on the same line from beginning to end, they may not become his henchmen in the future.
When the hot flatbread was brought to the soldiers who were already hungry and exhausted, they immediately grabbed it one by one, and some soldiers even fought over a cake, and the scene in front of the tiger prison was in chaos for a while.
After Zhang Liao, who was standing on the Tiger Prison Pass, saw such a scene, he immediately said to Cheng Lian and Wei Xu, who were standing beside him: "Could it be that this is their plan to lure the enemy? ”
After Cheng Lian took a closer look, he laughed and said: "This is definitely not a ploy, it seems that their food and grass are running out, and the thieves are starving like this, as long as we continue to consume them, we will definitely be able to surrender without a fight!" ”
Wei Xu saw the scene that was out of control for a while, and said very excitedly: "If you don't kill at this time, when will you wait?" Wei is willing to order 10,000 elite soldiers to go and let those thieves be starving to death! ”
Although Zhang Liao also wanted to send troops at this time, he was still a little jealous of Mafu and the others in his heart, and he was a little hesitant for a while.
When the scene in front of the Tiger Prison Pass was slightly controlled, and the army behind the soldiers who were gnawing on the flatbread began to retreat, Wei Xu asked for battle again: "General Zhang, if you don't fight at this time, when will you stay?" Do we really want to be shrunken turtles? ”
Zhang Liao was also a little unable to hold on, and immediately said to Wei Xu: "You and lead 10,000 horses to rush out of the pass to test, if they hold their heads and run away, then there is no need to chase them?" If they fight hard to kill the enemy, they will chase and fight? ”
Wei Xu touched his head: "What does this mean?" ”
Zhang Liao said: "If you are sleepy, you are brave, but if you are real, you are empty." Now that the thieves are hungry, they are hungry in front of us, exposing us the taboo of lack of food and grass, do you think they will be so kind. You go to test this time, the thief army encounters strong soldiers, and they will fight to survive and fight to the death if they treat food like this, so that our whole army will attack, and we will be able to break the enemy's army, but if the enemy army is directly dispersed, then this must be a trick to lure the enemy, General Wei should return quickly, don't be fooled! ”
Wei Xu felt that Zhang Liao's words were reasonable, and immediately after agreeing, he led 10,000 elite soldiers out of the Tiger Prison Pass, and those soldiers who were grabbing the flatbread fled in the direction of the retreat of the princes' army after seeing the army, but there was also a group of soldiers who were not afraid of danger and directly picked up their weapons and rushed forward.
After the two armies killed for a while, the group of soldiers who stayed behind also retreated quickly, Wei Xu saw that the time was ripe, and hurriedly pursued, Zhang Liao saw that there were soldiers on the city gate, and when they fled, they still did not leave their shoulders and weapons, so they were relieved and boldly poured out the soldiers in the tiger prison to chase and kill.
And just when Wei Xuchang drove straight in and killed the princes' army to lose their armor, he only heard a burst of cannons, and a large group of Biao troops suddenly killed from behind them. And those "starving ghosts" who were originally chased and beaten by Wei Xu saw so many armies suddenly appear behind them, and they all shook their spirits one by one and fought hard.
Wei Xu knew what he was planning, but he was also fearless, because he had already seen Zhang Liao leading the army rushing over from a distance.
After several princes fought with a large army and Wei Xu's 10,000 soldiers, Zhang Liao arrived, and he directly rushed into the endless sea of people with his men and horses.
Cao Ying and the others did not plan to fight Zhang Liao to the death, and Zhang Liao was so desperate, they just occupied and retreated, and when they retreated ten miles, Yuan Shao took the princes of more than ten miles to cover up from Zhang Liao's back.
Zhang Liao was confident that there were many people, and although he was attacked by the enemy on his back, he was not afraid, but he just led the army to rush and kill everywhere.
All of a sudden, the clouds and winds were fierce within a radius of dozens of miles from the Tiger Prison Pass, and the sound of killing shook the sky. This battle lasted for a long time, although Zhang Liao killed a lot of enemies, but his own side also suffered many casualties, and now there is no possibility of annihilating the thief army, and the thief army has the tendency to become more and more courageous, so he ordered his subordinates to withdraw their troops.
But Cao Hong and the others didn't give up, and chased after them directly, delusionally going directly to Zhang Liao's head. After Zhang Liao and Cao Hong fought for a few rounds, they didn't dare to fight, so they transferred their horses and left, while Cao Hong was in hot pursuit.
Zhang Liao was angry, immediately took a bow and shot an arrow, and gave Cao Hong an arrow sideways, Cao Hong only cared about chasing, and forgot that Zhang Liao's arrow was extremely accurate, Zhang Liao's arrow came, and he was directly shot to the ground, Le Jin, Li Dian and others rushed to the rescue in time, so that he was saved from the hands of the thief army.
When Zhang Liao led the tired army to the front of the Tiger Prison Pass, he shouted to open the door. But what he didn't expect was that all of a sudden thousand arrows were fired at the gate, and all of a sudden, the army under his command became a live target.
When he saw Ma Fu, Gongsun Zhan, Kong Rong and others standing on the Guan Tower looking at him with a smile, he almost fainted, and hurriedly led the team of men and horses with Cheng Lian to the direction of Luoyang......
