Chapter 098 took advantage of the enemy's rout to capture the twin cities
Yuan Shu glared and shouted, "Not good! Ignoring the fact that his soldiers were struggling for their lives, he turned around and ran towards the war horse. The self-managed horse rushed to Huoqiu and fled.
But he knew that he had never arranged for reinforcements to be here, and he knew that if reinforcements came, they should come from the southeast. At this time, the army came from the northwest corner, and there was no doubt that it was the enemy.
Therefore, the horse is seized and the road is gone. There were countless Yuan troops who escaped ashore under the arrows of Xu Sheng's water army, and they were taking a big breath. Suddenly, he heard that a general was coming first, waving his knife and shouting: "General Wu Xu is here, and the enemy will not be killed!" ”
Thousands of elite soldiers behind him raised their voices and shouted: "Those who descend will not be killed!" Suddenly, Yuan Shujun, who had just escaped ashore, was so shocked that his face was pale, and they fled or knelt down to beg for surrender.
When the young general heard this, he looked back in the fierce battle, and saw that the army was in chaos, and knew that the situation was not good. Then he said, "Phew! With a loud shout, the gun shook away, and Chen Zhi, who was still attacking like a tiger, was speared.
Turning his head and rushing to the bank of the Huai River, he jumped up with his legs kicked, and with the sound of 'plopping', he plunged into the blood-colored Huai River. Those who drift with the tide go straight downstream to the south bank with the current.
Chen Zhi's face turned pale, and he shouted loudly: "Thief! Dare to leave a name! The young general ran after the water by himself, and he had no time to answer him.
Rather, Hua Fei, who was commanding the army in the distance. Hearing the prestige, I saw Chen Zhi stationed in the gun and gasped. Drops of bright red blood dripped down his left hand and fell to the ground.
Hua Fei was shocked when he saw this, and he hurriedly called the doctor to come, and he hurriedly rode his horse to Chen Dao's side, "Whew!" He jumped off the horse and grabbed Chen Dao.
"Shhh With a loud sound, he tore his robe, and hurriedly bandaged his wounds at the place where Chen Zhi's arm was close to his heart. Bian asked in a loud voice: "Uncle Zhi!" How do you feel? ”
Chen Zhi saw that it was Hua Fei who was pulling his robe and wrapping his wounds, and his eyes were slightly red and he shook his hand and said, "Lord! It's okay to get a little wounded, you go and command the army. ”
At this time, the military medic arrived. Hua Fei hurriedly handed Chen Zhi over to the doctor and told him to recuperate from his injuries. Immediately, he turned around and commanded the actions of the army.
When he turned back, he saw that the battle at the ferry was over. The 20,000 troops of Yuan Shu's army that attacked the ferry fled and died, and the rest of them have surrendered.
Zhang Demei and Wu Xu on the south bank of the Huai River, after Xu Sheng's navy took over the prisoners, they had led two elite soldiers according to his orders, shouting and going straight to Huoqiu.
Hua Fei hurriedly ordered Gong Du and He Yi to lead the army and clean up the mess. Xu Sheng was ordered to lead the water army, staggered on the Huai River, and the board was connected into a bridge, after Tai Shici's cavalry crossed the river.
After crossing the Huai River, Tai Shici, who had been conspiracy by Hua Fei, chased after Yuan Shujun, who was defeated. I'm going to give him one, and I should chase the remnants of the thief!
But he said that Taishi Ci was originally patrolling in the northwest of Xiacai County, but why did he appear here?
It turned out that all this came from Huafei's plan. After consulting with Zhu Cao after receiving information, he took advantage of the Huai River in the south of Xia Cai County, which was really a place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack for Huainan.
Urgently ordered the town to guard Muyuan in Cai County, mobilized the people inside and outside the city to help, and set up a banner to order the people to dress up as soldiers and garrison in the city.
With only 6,000 soldiers, he falsely claimed 20,000 defenders, thinking that it was a suspicious tactic. Show the enemy to reach the goal of making the enemy frightened and afraid to attack.
He also ordered Tai Shi Ci to lead 4,000 cavalry to patrol along the river in the northwest of Xia Cai to help Mu Yuan. After adding the patrol of cavalry that acted quickly, Hua Fei expected that Yuan Shu would not dare to storm Cai County.
However, he ordered Tai Shi Ci to take advantage of Muyuan's arson and smoke to confuse the enemy army on September 18, and led the cavalry to retreat to Yingshang County to meet him.
Although this was a bit risky, Hua Fei decided that even if Yuan Shu waved his army to forcibly cross the river and attack Xia Cai County. In a short period of time, he also did not want to take it and occupy Xiacai County, which was occupied by both people at the right time.
What's more, if the battle in Xia Cai County started, Tai Shici's cavalry acted quickly. You can quickly return to Xia Cai County and help Mu Yuan defend the city. In this way, it can be said that it is foolproof.
Subsequently, he was based on Yuan Shu's arrogant nature. With the topography of the Huai River, it was judged that Yuan Shu did not dare to attack and went down to Cai County. It will inevitably lead the army and come straight to the Anfengjin ferry.
Therefore, he ordered Cao Chen to lead 4,000 people, with the help of Xu Sheng's army, to quickly enter the Anfengjin ferry in the middle of the two counties.
Ordered Chen to ambush the army and falsely claimed the number of 2,000 people inside, which made the arrogant Yuan Shu think that the defensive force was weak. Showing the enemy to lead the enemy weakly, without taking advantage of the advantage, launched an attack on the defenders.
According to Yuan Shu's suspicious character, Chen Zhi dispatched an ambush of 2,000 troops when he was in danger, giving Yuan Shu a reassurance. As a result, the plan dug a big hole for Yuan Shu.
He also ordered Xu Sheng's water army to be stationed in the west of the confluence of Rushui and the Huai River, secretly receiving Zhang Demei and Wu Xu's troops, crossing the Huai River and waiting for the opportunity. And waited for the best moment to give Yuan Shu a half-cross attack.
In the end, Hua Fei introduced the Chinese army and Liu Pigong and other generals, and led the elite soldiers to ambush in the city at Yingshang County, waiting for the best time to send the army.
Under Hua Fei's careful planning, the army of several roads adopted the method of attacking multiple ways at the same time in the best time period, and Yuan Shu's army of 90,000 was completely chaotic and was defeated by one blow!
However, it was said that after Tai Shici led the cavalry away, Hua Fei took Xu Chu to lead the elite soldiers of the headquarters to quickly board the ship. Xu Sheng ordered the army to remove the planks and go down the river, echoing the army all the way.
On the evening of September 19, Tai Shi Ci made peace with Zhang Demei. According to the plan, the leader with great fanfare rushed to the weakly defended Huoqiu County.
Yuan Shu was frightened, and hurriedly led the remnants of the army to abandon the city and flee to Shouchun. Zhang Demei and Wu Xu followed the order, led the army to move all the money and grain in Huoqiu County, and returned to Anfengjin Ferry.
Tai Shi Ci then led the fine to ride a torch, and chased after him with a tail, only to panic Yuan Shu, and the wolf ran to the rat. On the other side, Hua Fei and Xu Sheng, who took the waterway, followed the water of the Huai River to the east and went to Yangquan County.
At midnight on 19 September, the two armies converged to the west of Yangquan, and the situation was greatly shaken. Yuan Shu was frightened when he heard the report, so he abandoned the grain and grass that had just been transported to Yangquan County and fled.
Hua Fei led the army and took advantage of the situation to seize the county seat of Yangquan. Under the leadership of Xu Sheng, he ordered the infantry troops to cooperate with the navy. Move the grain and grass in the city and transport it to Anfengjin Ferry.
At this point, after Hua Fei won Yuan Shujun's grain and grass baggage, the whole strategy was already a complete success. However, Hua Fei thought to himself, if the scourge of Yuan Shu is not eliminated, I don't know how many innocent people will be hurt because of him.
Then he took Tai Shici and Xu Chu, led 4,000 elite cavalry to continue to pursue Yuan Shu's defeated army, and went straight to Shouchun. I plan to take advantage of the situation for the people of Huainan to eliminate this great harm.
Hua Fei led the army to catch up, on the morning of September 20, when the sun rose in the east. Seeing that it was about to catch up with Yuan Shu, who was already exhausted. Suddenly, smoke and dust rose from the southeast, and thousands of cavalry arrived in the sound of horses' hooves.
But it was the extremely beautiful young general who fell into the water and fled yesterday, and found a horse in the chaotic army. He put his horse and went straight to Shouchun City, mobilizing more than 3,000 cavalry. rushed to Yangquan County and came to rescue Yuan Shu.
Hua Fei saw that the enemy's reinforcements had arrived, and he was worried that his cavalry would be exhausted from the long-distance attack. After ordering the tiger to break off Tai Shici and Xu Chu, he led the army to slowly retreat towards Yangquan County.
The extremely beautiful young general, after receiving Yuan who was lucky to escape, saw that Hua Fei had fewer soldiers than himself, and he didn't want to lead the army to chase the enemy. Helplessly, Yuan Shu felt sorry for the large amount of grain, grass and baggage in Yangquan County.
Then he ordered the young general to lead the army to pursue Hua Fei first. But he led more than 100 horsemen and rushed to Shouchun. Prepare, to do the best of the army left behind in Shouchun, to recapture the grain, grass and baggage that belong to him.
When Hua Fei led the army to retreat to Yangquan County, he first ordered the elite guards to gallop to Yangquan County. Investigate your own army first, and have you crossed the river with all the food and baggage?
After the guards had gone, he continued to lead the army slowly. Suddenly, there was a loud shout of killing from the rear. The extremely beautiful young general has led 3,000 cavalry and hurriedly pursued.
Hua Fei saw that the enemy army was chasing, so he ordered Tai Shici to command the cavalry. Zhang Bow and arrow are ready to give the young general a head-on attack.
Unexpectedly, the young general was extremely clever, and he saw Hua Fei's army arraying and holding bows. Hurriedly waved his spear to stop the cavalry, and did not dare to charge into battle at will.
But he rode his horse out of the battle, waved his gun at Tai Shi Ci and shouted: "Enemy general, if you have the ability, you will come out to fight with me, and stop using the means of dark arrows to hurt people." ”
When Tai Shici heard this, he was about to hang up his bow and spear to greet him. Unexpectedly, Xu Chu heard the young general fighting, and took the first step to swing his sword and rush out. In front of the two armies, he raised his sword and shouted: "Xu Chu of Qian County, Xu Zhongkang is here, the enemy general can quickly pass through the name and die!" ”
