Chapter 162: Night Attack

Liu Yan led everyone into the big tent of Zhanju, and looked at the table reserved under the account full of wine and meat. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info didn't expect that the defenders of Dongjun, who had been forced to the end of the mountains and rivers in other people's mouths, could still eat such mountain delicacies, and I don't know how much blood and sweat of cloth clothes were scavenged to put on such a grand table.

However, Zhan Ju was also a little surprised, he remembered that the order he gave was to entertain Liu Yan alone. But Liu Yan brought five people in a row. He didn't have so much food to prepare, and he didn't have the capital and food to entertain so many people. Frowning, he called the messenger guard over under the pretext of relieving him.

"I asked you to invite Liu Yan to come alone, why did you invite so many people?"

The guard's face turned as blue as an eggplant, and he didn't even dare to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead with a sad face: "General, the little one really invited according to your original words!" ”

In fact, Zhan Ju knew in his heart that this must be Liu Yan's ghost, he just wanted to find an excuse to put himself at ease. Seeing that the guard was almost paralyzed with fright, Zhan Ju shook his hand helplessly and hurried into the big tent.

"Come, come, sit, sit!"

Liu Yan and the others stared at the only four tables in front of them and didn't know what to do for a while, Liu Yan glanced at them and sat in front. Zhen Yubo and Geng Idiot squeezed together on a table. The position that was supposed to be the general of the battalion was occupied by them like this, and Zhanju had to send someone to inform them one by one so that they would not be embarrassed.

Liu Yan saw that the old man was still standing at the door of the big tent, waved his hand and beckoned the old man in, and then bowed to Zhan and said, "General Zhan, what are you doing for me with such an old thing?" I can't afford to raise idlers. ”

A flash of doubt quickly flashed in Zhanju's eyes, but he quickly suppressed it. None of the people in the account found out, this is the testimony of the city government for many years.

"The old thing doesn't do things well, I'm afraid that I will spare General Liu Yaxing. I'll leave it to you, feel free to dispose of it! ”

Liu Yan didn't wait for Zhan Ju to start the banquet, he took a sip of his wine glass, and said with a somewhat playful smile: "Really? ”

Zhanju also smiled and said, "Seriously! ”

"Zheng!"

The Fengjiang sword was instantly unsheathed, and when the wine glass in Liu Yan's hand fell on the table, the Fengjiang sword was already softly roaring, and it flew quickly towards the old man with Liu Yan. Liu Yan swung his arm violently, and the sword went straight to the old man's throat.

"Slow!"

Zhan Ju's face turned blue with fright, and he drew his matching sword and greeted him. Ten inches away from the old man, Liu Yan's sword was missed. Liu Yan didn't laugh angrily, turned around with one arm and then stabbed the left protrusion, and the two points of one move went to Zhan Ju's right elbow and right chest respectively.

Zhan Ju had a serious face, and when he saw the move, he stepped back and at the same time used the remaining strength of Liu Yan's sword to pull back, wanting to shift Liu Yan's center of gravity away so that he could defeat the enemy with one move. But how could a guy like Liu Yan, who can do all kinds of difficult actions in the air, lose his center of gravity so easily.

The two called for an attack, Liu Yan's offensive was fierce and ferocious, the battle bow was soft and rigid, and the moves were all kept behind to block Liu Yan's sword in mid-air. In this way, the two have passed fifty rounds, and they can't tell the winner at all.

The people around him seemed a little surprised, although they had heard of Zhanju, they didn't expect him to be so powerful. Although Liu Yan didn't take it seriously, he just played casually. But what Liu Yan is like, how can everyone not know, Zhan Ju can easily turn Liu Yan's fierce attacks into a weak defense, and this person is not simple.

In the same way, the people here in Dongjun were also very surprised, they didn't expect Liu Yan to be so powerful. So much so that they now feel that Liu Yan's arrogance before was reasonable.

Just when people on both sides were thinking about it, Liu Yan suddenly jumped out of the battlefield and looked at the battle bow with a sword in one hand. And the people in Dongjun were cheering, they felt that it was the war bow that forced Liu Yan to stop.

Liu Yan looked around and sneered, then bowed to Zhan and said, "Didn't you say let me deal with it?" How? ”

Zhanju didn't speak, he could only say that his wishful thinking was empty, to be exact, the abacus of the two of them. The old man smiled and beckoned to a nearby guard, who somehow took out a cane and handed it to the old man.

The old man walked to the sound of the war bow, patted it, and then bowed to Liu Yan and said, "I don't know how General Liu saw the flaws of the old decay?" ”

Liu Yan didn't speak, walked back to his seat, got to a glass of wine, saluted everyone in the feudal territory, and then drank it all and said, "What do you see?" I meant to kill you! I hate all the people who play tricks! ”

With the support of Zhan Ju, the old man sat down next to Zhan Ju and bowed to Liu Yan and said, "Old soldier Xiahou Qi!" ”

Liu Yan nodded, in fact, the old man knew that this old guy was definitely not that simple. Later, Zhan Ju glanced at the old man from time to time, which showed that the old man's identity was suspicious. Therefore, he wanted to deliberately provoke, he had much hope, but he didn't expect Zhanju to be so uncontrollable.

Therefore, the pit of Zhanju was dug for himself, and his weaknesses were leaked to Liu Yan. Of course, Liu Yan wouldn't threaten Zhanju with this kind of thing, he just thought about it.

Zhan Ju saw that Liu Yan had eaten it by himself, so he didn't go to push it. After cutting the meat on the plate into slices and putting it on the plate, he handed it to Xiahou Qi, poked a piece of meat with a knife, and began to eat the wine in a big gulp.

On the other hand, Liu Yan's gang seems to be in their own camp. Toast each other, shout and laugh. Especially when Shan Miao sometimes drank happily, he had to roar twice, and the surrounding soldiers frowned. I'm really not used to this kind of devastation.

"Eat, eat, Zhen Yubo, you give some wine to Geng idiot! Shan Miao, you return Yinjiang's wine! ”

Half an hour later, the food that had been piled up on the table like a hill was cleaned up by these people. After eating and drinking, several people leaned slightly against the tent wall and rested with half-closed eyes to recuperate.

Zhanju has been in the army for more than ten years, and what kind of person has never been seen. But the first time I saw this kind of person, they were obviously some powerful generals, but why were they more pretentious than those civil officials, and more rude than bandits.

"Has General Liu Yan eaten enough?"

Liu Yan hurriedly sat up straight and said with a smile: "Eat, eat." Thank you for your hospitality, then I'll take my leave! ”

Saying that, Liu Yan gave a few people a look, touched his stomach, and then stood up, beckoning everyone to leave. In fact, he knew that there must be something wrong with Zhanju, and there would be no free dinner in this world, let alone dinner given by strangers.

Sure enough, Liu Yan stood up and spoke before he took a step: "The general stays, I have something to discuss with the general." ”

Liu Yan smiled, gave everyone a smile, as if he had done something wrong, and then sat down and said, "What's the matter?" ”

Zhan Ju nodded, and made a gesture of invitation to Xiahou Qi next to him. Xiahou Qi waved his hand at a soldier next to him, and the soldier brought three more soldiers to bring up a map of Dongjun. There are clear annotations on it, including the deployment and stationing of the enemy's and our troops, and of course, the favorable terrain and orientation of each battle.

Xiahou Qi walked down slowly on crutches and pointed to the area of Dongjun near the border of Wei and said, "The rebel army is now mainly active in this area. If you go south, you want the elite of Great Qin, and although you may get the support of Wei to the north, the defenses set up by the Black Fire Army on the border cannot be broken through by a mere chaotic army.

Therefore, the rebel army is caught in a dilemma and can only operate in this area. This is also what I am troubled about, the rebel army is indefinite, and is good at ambushing. The mobility of our large army is too weak, and the small army can easily be swallowed up by the chaotic army. Is there a way for General Liu to deal with this situation? ”

Liu Yan shook his head, this kind of army is the most difficult to deal with. Just like the great leaders of the time wrote on guerrilla tactics, this tactic is undoubtedly effective in maximizing the mobility of small troops. But what Liu Yan didn't arrive first is that after thousands of years, this tactic is still used vividly here.

"It's not easy to do, at least not yet. But I guess you're not just calling me here to tell me about the tactics that Chaos employs, right? ”

Xiahou Qi smiled, pointed to the four corners of the border of Dongjun, and said: "The old man thinks that he should divide his troops around, guard one corner of each, and encroach step by step to slowly shrink the range of action of the chaotic army!" ”

Liu Yan nodded and said: "This is indeed good, using the strong combat power of the army can force the rebellious army to carry out a decisive battle of the whole army." But I have a question, what about the deployment of troops in these four places? ”

Xiahou Qi stepped back, and Zhan Ju stepped forward and said, "There are two kinds of this. First, each of them guards two places! Second, one person insisted, one person nibbled! ”

"Therefore, if the first one says, it is better to take the initiative to surround it slowly. You didn't receive the king's command? How do you shrink the encirclement in two months? ”

Xiahou Qi smiled and said: "It's just that our defenders have more infantry and light armor, which is not suitable for surprise attacks, and their mobility is too weak." ”

Yin Jiang, who had been silent, also spoke.

"That's okay, our war horses are not suitable for the terrain of East County. Cavalry without horses is not as good as your light armor! ”

Zhan Ju glanced at Yin Jiang and said: "This is Yin Jiang, the son of General Yin Liao, who has admired his name for a long time!" As the general said, there are many ravines and ravines in this eastern county, but there are also many flat and open areas. I am willing to mobilize 5,000 light armor soldiers to help the general! ”

Liu Yan pointed to a flat and open area in the center of the map and said, "Forget it, keep your five thousand light armored soldiers for your own use." This place, I hope, is the venue for the decisive battle. Charge us and charge, you defend the territory! But before I do that, I have a question I want to ask. ”

After Zhan Ju and Xiahou Qi glanced at each other, Xiahou Qi bent down and bowed to Liu Yan and said, "General, excuse me!" ”

Liu Yan's face sank, and after staring at the two of them for a few moments, he said, "As you said, the rebel army is operating along the border. But why do you set these traps in the middle of the camp? ”
