Chapter Seventy-Four: The Great Army Pressed the Frontier
If Zang Hong's father and son were not recommended to Lu Bu by Zhang Miao, Sun Guan Yin Li and a Wu Dun would have become the three generals under the command of the Taishan thieves led by Zang Ba in the future.
The Taishan thieves who were not at peace in the Qingyan and Xu Sanzhou in history would never have thought that in addition to Wu Dun, who stayed in the lair, more than a thousand thieves were brought to a pot by Qin Xu with a non-lethal earth bomb.
"Master Qin, my two brothers are also confused by rumors, do you see if you can ......" Zang Ba looked at the two brothers who were "entertained" by the camp first with some embarrassment, and had the heart to ask Qin Xu for a favor, but he was afraid that Qin Xu would not agree, so he said a little hesitantly.
"Captain Zang, do you think it's really an accident that they heard rumors and came to take advantage of the fire to rob our army?" Qin Xu squinted at the smoke and dust on the horizon in the distance, and asked Zang domineering.
"What does Master Qin mean by this? Isn't it? A trace of anxiety flashed on Zang Ba's face, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Lu Bu had only been in Yanzhou for more than half a month, even if these people were well-informed, they would not know Lu Bu's marching route so coincidentally, right? Moreover, what is Lu Bu's military strength, the world knows that these two people with more than 1,000 stragglers dared to come to Lu Bu's advantage and eat leopard gall? Then there is only one truth, someone deliberately spread false news, or Lu Bu is rich or Lu Bu is only left with the remnants of the defeated army, no matter what, the purpose is to lure these fools to come as cannon fodder and consume the strength of Lu Bu's army.
"What does Captain Zang think?" Qin Xu nodded with a wry smile and said, "Lao Cao is so calculating, he can not only take the opportunity to consume the combat power of our army, but also make these thieves who are hidden in the deep mountains and dense forests, which give him a headache, take the initiative to give up their advantages and expose them to the plains, killing two birds with one stone." β
"What? Are you telling the truth? Sun Guan Yin Li had just given Qin Xu a salute and was invited to the side by the soldiers of the first camp, it was not far away, at this time hearing Qin Xu's analysis, Sun Guan was suddenly shocked and said: "You mean that we fell for Cao Jun's strategy, how is it possible?" This is something that my brother has worked hard to find out. β
"The marching route of our army, except for the high-level generals of the Lu Cao family, even the soldiers in our army are not clear, the news of your brother is really well-informed!" Qin Xu replied angrily, and said, "If what I expected is true, Cao Ying's army will arrive soon, and your old nest is estimated to have been taken over by Cao Ying at this time." β
"It can't be!" Yin Li saw Sun Guan hesitate for a moment, his face changed drastically, and he said loudly: "Big brother, this strategy was discovered by your wife and brother at the risk of death, how could it be Cao Jun's strategy, don't you listen to the words of the master of this witchcraft, he said that Cao Jun is behind us, but what about Cao Jun, where is Cao Jun?" β
"Click......"
Before Yin Li's words fell, suddenly there was a regular vibration sound on the ground, everyone's faces sank, Sun Guan and Yin Li looked at Qin Xu with a hint of horror in their eyes, these two people have been in battle for a long time, how can they not hear that this is caused by a large group of horses galloping, I am afraid that in less than a stick of incense, Cao Ying's cavalry will arrive.
"Lead!" Qin Xu didn't have time to pay attention to the gaffe of Sun Guan and Yin Li, and ordered: "Dispatch a hundred people, temporarily under the command of Kong Erzi, and send another hundred people to find more dry firewood and hay on the mountain, and try to pile up as much as possible at the foot of the mountain." The rest of the people still arranged suspicious soldiers. β
"No!" Take the lead and go.
"Kong Er is stunned, you take this hundred people, in a group of fifty people, each holding a torch, like just now, let Lao Cao also taste the taste of our earth bomb." Qin Xu glanced at the old Xu Sima behind him and the soldiers of the trapped camp, and said: "Gentlemen, it's still the same sentence, the lord and I are waiting for the robes to be behind us, success or failure is here, if we are lucky enough not to die in this battle, we will treat each other as brothers in the future." β
"No!" Kong Er was stunned, gritted his teeth and responded.
"About brothers! Live and die together! "These soldiers who are trapped in the camp and ascend the camp first understand that there are at least 40,000 troops under the mountain, but there are only more than 2,000 people on this mountain, and ninety percent of them are prisoners of Taishan thieves who have no combat power. But Qin Xu's words once again stirred up the blood surnames of these people. The trapping camp was headed by Lao Xu Sima Mao, and the first camp was led by the lead move, and even Zang Ba was full of excitement, holding the sword in his waist tightly, and whispering.
"Master Qin, if you can trust us, let's join us too!" Sun Guan and Yin Li were also infected by Qin Xu's words at this time, and looked at Zang Ba as if pleading, and said: "Xuan Gao, brother, you tell Master Qin for me, anyway, Cao Ying is also thinking of exterminating us, the Wu Dun brothers may have been killed now, and they are also dead, so it is better to fight with them!" β
"Yes, fight with them!" Maybe it was Qin Xu's previous movement that gave them confidence, maybe it was the strong survival after knowing the truth, the Taishan thieves who were very well-behaved before also had a burst of twitching after listening to the words of the two, and more than a thousand thieves were also filled with righteous indignation, completely without the cowardice and cowardice just now.
"Hmm!" Qin Xu glanced at Zang Ba, who was faintly expectant in his eyes, nodded heavily, and said, "Okay!" Since the two leaders said so, they were temporarily under the command of Captain Zang, and led his subordinates to set up more banners and act according to orders. If I can wait for this battle, I will give you a future in front of Qingzhou Mu! β
"No!" After listening to Qin Xu's words, the two of them suddenly turned pale, and after responding loudly, they stood behind Zang Ba.
Qin Xu only used six earth bombs on his side, and he flickered into the source of nearly 2,000 troops, and also got two generals with a force value of at least eighty or more, this deal was too comfortable and cost-effective. Although there are still Cao Ying's nearly 40,000 troops eyeing him, the addition of these new forces, although the comparison of troops is still very different, but it makes Qin Xu's nervous mood calm a lot.
This is not an ordinary competition of 2,000 against 40,000 troops, but a confrontation between ancient and modern civilizations. If it is a hard fight with real swords and guns, he will not have the confidence to lend Qin Xu two guts.
Qin Xu is not stupid, throughout history, except for Chen Qingzhi, who dared to use a hundred people to resist tens of thousands of troops, and could completely annihilate more than 200,000 Xianbei elite cavalry with only 3,000 people, almost no one could do it!
Qin Xu is busy here, and Cao Ying is not idle here. After joining forces with Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ying's strength reached 40,000, which was more than half of LΓΌ Bu's entire military strength, and the soldiers were nearly six times that of LΓΌ Bu, and the cavalry alone had nearly 20,000, almost three times that of LΓΌ Bu. If such a formation can still allow Lu Bu'an to reach Qingzhou safely, then his old Cao is really a fool.
Just when Cao Ying gave the order to see how to slow down the march, first let the Taishan thief Kou fight with Lu Bu's army for a while, and then sit back and reap the profits. Unexpectedly, the effort was not great, and after hearing three loud noises, I got the news that two thousand thieves had been suddenly attacked and all of them were captured in an instant. Even who the other party is and how many troops there are, these are not in a hurry to find out.
"The cavalry is the vanguard, speed up the march!" Cao Ying was also angry, isn't this a clear attempt to dismantle the stage? With the combat strength of Lu Bu's army, although the newly recruited troops of Cao Chun in Jibei had an advantage in numbers, the chances of winning against Lu Bu were almost infinitely close to zero. Originally, I planned to use these thieves who were blinded by wealth to consume some of Lu Bujun's combat power, but I didn't expect that these people were marching slowly, not to mention, and they didn't even move their knives, so they were served a pot.
There are more than 10,000 people, and there is no boundary, which is not bad at all.
Qin Xu didn't have this feeling in Lu Bu's army for a while, and this was the first time he had condescendingly seen the army of this cold weapon era gathering, on the open ground in front of the mountain, from the horizon, as far as the eye could see, the sky was full of people. The neighing of horses, the sound of marching footsteps, the ground trembled. In just a moment's effort, under the low hill where Qin Xu was, he assembled in formation, tens of thousands of troops were strictly disciplined, except for the occasional neighing of horses, they were quietly afraid of people, and the murderous aura that came to his face was like substance, making people feel weak and cramp their legs and stomachs. These soldiers who fell into the camp and ascended the camp first were okay, where had they seen such a formation under Sun Guan Yinli's subordinates just now, if it weren't for the strong bullet pressure of Zang Ba and the three of them, some people couldn't help the pressure, tears and snot flowed, and their spirits were about to collapse.
"Where are the people on the mountain? Dare to report your name! "Cao Jun was not in a hurry to attack, and a general came out of Pegasus in the battle array, wearing armor and armor, which was Cao Ren who welcomed Lu Bu's army into the city when Chen Liu.
It seems that Cao Jun really monitored the every move of the Taishan thieves before, and saw that these nearly 2,000 people were inexplicably captured without a single knife or shot, and they were also hesitant. There's really no way to call the battle without a loud voice these days, and it seems that I'll have to find a piece of iron to make a simple megaphone for backup. Qin Xu glanced left and right, and happened to see Kong Erzi who was picking his nose and mouth with a heartless and heartless appearance of wanting to die, with this famous loud voice, it would not weaken his reputation, Qin Xu glanced at Kong Er, and signaled to step forward to answer.
"General Zuo of the Han Dynasty led Qingzhou Mu Lu Wenhou to march the army, and the main book of the army...... Ahem, Lord Qin, let me tell you that your old Cao family is treacherous, and before the ink of the covenant is dry, you brazenly attack your allies, which is, that, that unrighteous act. Qin Xu said a sentence next to Kong Er's stunned son, and this guy repeated it, and under the loud voice, it also looked majestic: "Today, Qin Mou, according to more than 1,000 weak soldiers of benevolence and righteousness, and tens of thousands of murderers such as Kang'er, sue Yanzhou Mu Cao, God will punish injustice, don't realize yourself." β
"Qin Xu? The doll master who made Mr. Zhongde and Bo Dao angry that day? β
"Isn't it crazy? There are more than 1,000 benevolent and righteous weak soldiers, tens of thousands of murderers or something, I think I'm crazy! It's pitiful to talk nonsense at such a young age. β
Kong Er's stunned voice made Cao Ying and a group of military generals and strategists under the handsome voice hear Qin Xu's words clearly relayed by this unscrupulous person, and they all showed a face of disdain and disdain, and discussed with each other.
