Chapter 47: Pioneer Xu Rong
"Go down, and let us make a decision after discussion. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Ma Teng waved his hand to signal the soldier to leave, and pressed his brows alone and remained silent.
"Lord, according to Li Dao's character, it is obvious that our side will not be able to last a few days in this battle, and it is impossible for him to withdraw his troops, so we must beware of his conspiracy at the moment." Pang De arched his hand and said, he used to be under Dong Zhuo, and he had never seen Li Dao, but he knew a lot.
Ma Teng nodded, he was originally determined to go out of the city and fight to the death, but he didn't expect that the peak would turn around, and Li Dao would send someone to make peace, this is not a simple surprise, it is almost impossible to happen.
"Let's first see if it's true or not." Ma Teng rubbed his face, and felt that his head was not enough: "Our army has run out of food in the near future, it is impossible for Li Dao not to know, and at this time, even if he lures us out of the city with a trick, it will inevitably be killed in a big battle, it seems that Li Dao really wants to withdraw the army?" ”
Ma Chao also frowned: "In this way, Li Wei's retreat must be true, but why did he let go of the duck in his mouth." It's really weird. ”
At this time, Zhang Heng stood up: "Could it be that the Silu coalition army broke through the Tong Pass?" ”
Ma Teng was taken aback, but then shook his head and denied: "In the coalition army, the Wancheng Imperial Court arrived at Wuguan in August, even if Wuguan is taken, there is still a Chunni Pass to block it, and Tongguan can be as famous as Hugao Pass, even if there is a lack of troops, it is not Cao Cao who can take it in just one month, don't you know that it took about five months for the Jizhou coalition army to attack Huguan in the past." ”
Pang De suddenly remembered something: "I heard that Li Jing, the cousin of the governor of the state, led 50,000 soldiers to build a ship on the Yellow River, could it be that they raided Chang'an." ”
Ma Teng was excluded by Ma Chao before he could speak: "Although King Li is dangerous in everything, there are still tens of thousands of soldiers in Chang'an, and the city is high and the walls are thick, even if Li Jing comes out, it will be difficult to shake it, not to mention that our army only needs three or five days to run out of food and grass, and it will not take much time for Li Dao, which must not be the reason for Li Dao to withdraw his army." ”
Everyone was silent for a moment, and they couldn't figure out the reason.
"In this way, our army temporarily agreed to Li Wei's peace and agreed on the time of withdrawal, when Zhang Hengdian and Qi infantry withdrew from Gaoping County from the west gate, and Meng Qi and Ling Ming went out through the north and south gates, and led 5,000 cavalry to the rear of the palace respectively.
Ma Teng made a decision, and everyone had no better way, so they gave it up.
Li Dao battalion: "Since Ma Teng plans to withdraw the army, then we can prepare immediately, every moment of delay will deepen the crisis in Linjing County." ”
"General, I, Xu Wenliang, have not made an inch of success in this battle, and I would like to be the vanguard and return to Linjing County as soon as possible." Xu Rong made a loud noise.
Li Wei admired Xu Rong's bravery, nodded with a smile, and said, "How many soldiers and horses does Wenliang need?" ”
"The last general only needs 5,000 cavalry, and the attacking rebels will inevitably be annihilated."
"Then let Wenliang be the vanguard army, and you can order 5,000 cavalry to return to Linjing County immediately."
Xu Huang and Xu Rong had a very good personal relationship, and at this time he arched his hand and said: "I would like to ask General Wenliang to flank and lead 10,000 archers to lean on both sides to cover." ”
"Great goodness." Li Wei nodded with satisfaction: "Let Xu Rong and Xu Huang be the vanguard, lead 5,000 cavalry and 10,000 archers, and immediately return to Linjing County." ”
"Honorable Order." The two bowed and went down to point their troops.
"Order Yang Feng to be the commander of the Chinese army and take stock of all affairs." Li Dao turned his head to look at the other two: "Li Li and Yang fixed the 10,000 cavalry to guard against the Ma Teng army." ”
Everyone took the order and went by themselves, leaving Li Dao alone to sit in the big tent.
It is night, a hillside not far from Linjing County, called Jiajiao Slope, the low hills on the left and right sides are like the girl's milk peak, the dead trees are lined up, the vegetation is sparse, if it is in the daytime, it is extremely difficult to hide the figure, but at this time, at night, Zhao Yunjun, who is deliberately ambushed, is difficult to find.
"Fengxiao, listen to what you mean, is it that Li Dao will definitely send a vanguard army to explore the way?"
Guo Jia nodded when he heard this: "Li Dao was once the first commander under Dong Zhuo, and it is not a problem to lead the army to fight, and every time there is a war, a vanguard must be dispatched, and everything is cautious and careful, so this time will not be an exception." ”
Zhao Yun was puzzled: "But why does it have to be tonight?" ”
Guo Jiale's explanation said with a smile: "Li Dao has great ambitions, but he is narrow-minded, and he will inevitably return to Linjing County immediately, and Ma Dai said that Ma Tengjun did not know that the state sent generals to help, and it was thought that the soldiers who replied to the letter had an accident, so the result of Li Dao and Ma Teng's discussion must be reconciliation, so that both sides have concerns, naturally they will not stay too long, calculate the footsteps, and there will inevitably be a vanguard army here tonight." ”
Zhao Yun thought about it, isn't it, if he changes to Li Dao, he will inevitably get in touch with Linjing County overnight, and this intestinal slope is where they must pass.
"General, a cavalry force is approaching in the northwest."
Suddenly, a junior colonel came to summon the news, Zhao Yun hurriedly ordered the soldiers to stand by and act according to the plan, but he secretly admired Guo Jia in his heart, and there was also a contrast in his heart, if Zhou Yu was here, although he was not sure whether the strategy would be more effective than Guo Jia, but he could calculate the time so accurately, Zhou Yu would not be able to do it.
The coming army is Xu Rong's vanguard cavalry, of course they will not rush deep, earlier they have sent scouts to make a detour to investigate, knowing that the enemy has turned off the lights, so they rode lightly and drove their horses to enter Linjing County overnight, and then get in touch with Xu Huang in the rear and annihilate the enemy army.
The abacus is good, but the ghost plot Guo Jia is not an easy person, and their every move has been calculated.
Xu Rong has extremely rich experience in marching, and when he came to the Jiagupo slope, he began to stop, observed the terrain, and asked the deputy general: "Is this the Jiagut slope?" “
And his lieutenant said: "General Xu, this place is indeed called Jiagupo, and the vegetation used to be dense, but it was burned by a fire as early as when Dong Xiang entered Beijing, and only some weeds grew after a few years. ”
Xu Rong nodded, he has not lived here for a long time, and he usually passes through here, knowing that it is extremely difficult for the enemy to ambush here, not to mention that there are scouts who have already reported that the enemy army has fallen asleep, and he didn't think much about it, and motioned for the vanguard army to move forward slowly.
This is also Xu Rong's subconscious, when he enters and exits the Jiajiu slope, it is daytime, so it is naturally not suitable to ambush, but at this moment it is night, and the sky in November is not as clear as summer, which greatly restricts his eyesight, which also makes him relax his vigilance and do not send soldiers to visit.
They were going to quietly enter Linjing County, so naturally they would not make a noise, and at this time, the war horses were all lightly armed, avoiding the eyes and ears of the enemy, but they did not know that they had already been exposed to Zhao Yunjun's eyes.
"General Zhao, it's time to act." Guo Jia saw that the time had come, and gently spit out the words.
Zhao Yun nodded: "Sons and daughters of Bingzhou, release arrows." ”
The loud shout not only got a response from the state army, but also shocked Xu Rong's subordinates, and there was a little noise for a while.
"It's not good, get out of the intestine slope, we're in ambush." Xu Rong made a quick decision and ordered the soldiers to retreat, but it was already too late.
The arrows fell as if they didn't want money, although they killed and injured a lot of Xu Rongjun, but the effect was not great, it just made the enemy a little scattered, and it was strange that although it was a hillside, it was not steep after all, and the mountain rocks could not cause damage even if they fell into the enemy.
"Ignite the fire and let Ma Dai lead five thousand cavalry to charge and kill."
Zhao Yun gave an order, and there were soldiers prepared on the side to go down and light the fire, and after a while, a big fire rose, and there were bursts of horses' hooves on the Gobi in the east, which was the five thousand cavalry led by Ma Dai.
Xu Rong looked at the enemy army, looked at the scattered soldiers, knew that there was no way to retreat, and immediately made a decision, and ordered the deputy general to stabilize the morale of the army and deal with the enemy's rush.
Zhao Yun's ambush soldiers saw Ma Dai rushing over, and naturally ordered the archers to stop shooting, and after this delay, Xu Rong also eased up a little, and rode his horse to meet the enemy.
Guo Jia stood side by side with Zhao Yun on a high place, looking down and frowning slightly: "It's not simple, looking at the combat effectiveness of this enemy army, it should be the Flying Bear Army of Dong Zhuo's relics, maybe Ma Dai will suffer." ”
Zhao Yun hesitated, but still planned to order Qi infantry to rescue Ma Dai, although King Li had instructed Guo Jia to be optimistic, but at this time, it was his own son who was fighting, and he couldn't bear to abandon it.
Guo Jia stood there motionless, a faint smile hung on the corner of his mouth, and he muttered in his heart: "Zilong is really upright, but I won't leave for the time being, don't worry." ”
