Chapter 141: All mouths are golden
Once a plan is set, it is very fast to execute.
Beigong Boyu, Li Wenhou, Han Sui, and Bian Zhang are not idle people, they can't do things at all, it is impossible to give the enemy, or even their own people, a little time to react, even if others understand their plan and know that they are calculated, it is also a matter after the war, and before the war, except for the four of them, no one else knows the plan!
Beigong Boyu issued an order that night, asking Li Wenhou to lead the troops to attack the city, and he led the main force of 30,000 Qiang soldiers to pull out the camp overnight and evacuate Yunwu County, and after staying behind the main force, the army responsible for the broken rear was as many as 70,000 or 80,000 people. From a conventional tactical point of view, this is absolutely wrong, and it can be completely interpreted as the main general escape!
All the Qiang generals who received this order all thought that this was an escape. Seeing that the Qiang soldiers attacked the city and retreated, even Leng Zheng and Chen Yi in the city thought so, and Li Qin and Jia Xu, who had not participated in the battle in the distance, also thought that their counter-plot had succeeded, causing the Qiang army to fall apart and no longer be able to unify their command!
At midnight, Li Wenhou commanded the army to start attacking the city, and the Qiang soldiers under his command set up a ladder and attacked the city one after another, but only at the west gate, there were no Qiang soldiers at the other city gates, and the Qiang soldiers besieging the city outside were evacuated one battalion after another!
Leng Zheng and Chen Yi came to the city wall together, and they couldn't help but smile as they looked at the battlefield below.
Leng Zheng said: "It was Li Wenhou's Qiang soldiers who attacked the city, they didn't work very hard, tens of thousands of people only erected twenty or thirty cloud ladders, isn't this just for show, for that Beigong Boyu to see!" ”
Chen Yi said with a smile: "Li Wenhou is telling Beigong Boyu that he did not surrender, so he attacked the city overnight to cover Beigong Boyu's retreat." It's a pity, his soldiers attacked so weakly, but it confirmed his surrender, if we attack at this time and chase Beigong Boyu, we must not anger the old thief of Beigong to death! ”
Leng Zheng licked his lips and said, "This Beigong Boyu, these words make me so angry." Now there is a great opportunity in front of me, it is better for me to lead the troops out of the city and kill them, even if I can't cut down Beigong Boyu, it may make him hate Li Wenhou even more, it is also very good, after a while, I will kill them one by one, and I will win completely! ”
Chen Yi said: "Don't wait for Li Qin to come over?" Well, it's okay not to wait, now Li Wenhou's army is not tired, it is not a good time to attack inside and outside, at least it must wait until dawn, at that time Beigong Boyu has already fled far away! ”
Leng Zheng turned around, called the adjutant general, and said: "Order the troops, order the elite cavalry to be 3,000, follow me out of the city to chase the enemy!" ”
The adjutant general agreed, and went down to gather the army.
Chen Yi thought for a while, and suddenly said: "General Leng, I think the pursuit is almost thirty miles, don't chase it far, no matter how far it is, it will be Hekou Pass, where it is not easy to start a war." ”
Leng Zheng sighed and said, "I naturally understand, how can I chase sixty or seventy miles." "Hekou Pass is not close to Yunwu County, seventy miles, such a long distance, it will not be counted in the scope of pursuit at all, if he leads his troops to chase seventy miles, it will not be called a pursuit, but a rush.
After a while, three thousand elite guards were assembled, and all the cavalry led the troops out of the city from the east gate, and followed Beigong Boyu to chase down.
Fifty miles away, as soon as the scout came to report, Li Qin immediately picked up the Fujiao army, came out of the camp, and slowly pressed up, he was not in a hurry, since it was Li Wenhou's army attacking the city, then he must have gone to war with resentment at the beginning, and whoever was framed so much had to be angry, and Li Wenhou was definitely not a good-tempered person, he must have fought fiercely at the beginning, but as long as he didn't attack for an hour or two, then the morale was discharged, and he led the troops over again, and he could directly beat the Qiang soldiers to the ground, maybe just capturing the prisoners would be.
When the Fujiao army pressed ten miles away, it did not move again, and waited until dawn. As expected, Li Wenhou's army offensive slowed down, and the shouting of killing gradually stopped.
Wu Danzi reported to Ma and shouted: "Li Lang, Li Wenhou's army has begun to withdraw, it is to the east, it is from the south, and it has avoided the north. ”
The Fujiao army waited in the northwest direction, and the Qiang soldiers circled from south to east, indicating that Li Wenhou already knew that the Fujiao army was pressing.
Li Qin shouted: "Blow the horn and press it slowly!" ”
Even if the Qiang soldiers retreat, they will leave behind the broken troops, and even if the broken troops are useless, if they only resist the pursuit once, it is still no problem to be so-so. However, if the Fujiao army blows the horn and blows the horn super loudly, then the Qiang soldiers' broken troops will be afraid, as long as the Qiang soldiers speed up and retreat, there will be chaos, and then catch up and cut down, the harvest will be much greater.
The whole army of the Fujiao army mounted their horses and trotted to the south, as long as the soldiers in the army had horns, they all took out their horns and blew them, and tried their best to put pressure on the retreating Qiang soldiers, while Li Qin sent scouts to rush to the city gate to report to Leng Zheng and Chen Yi.
trotting seven or eight miles, it has bypassed the southern city wall and marched eastward, but the Fujiao army has never engaged with Li Wenhou's Qiang soldiers, on the contrary, the distance is getting farther and farther, and the retreat speed of the Qiang soldiers is exactly the same as Li Qin expected.
Li Qinben was at the end of the line, when a scout chased after him and shouted: "Li Lang, the city shouted, saying that General Leng led his troops out of the east gate to pursue Beigong Boyu, and he has been gone for a long time!" ”
Li Qin sighed, thinking: "It's a little anxious, in the territory of Yunwu County, we don't necessarily have what to do with Beigong Boyu, we only need to eat Li Wenhou's army, and that's enough, Beigong Boyu's army needs to be solved outside Yunwu County, 100,000 rebels, I want to fight quickly, but it's not easy, I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry." ”
After calling Jia Xu, Li Qin asked: "There is a change from the original plan, Leng Zheng has gone to chase Beigong Boyu, and Li Wenhou's army is afraid that we can only solve it ourselves." ”
Jia Xu frowned and said: "You cold teacher is not very good at fighting, such a surname is urgent, I am afraid that you will suffer a big loss." We can only catch up, or I'm afraid we won't be able to come back. ”
Li Qin also said: "It is impossible for Beigong Boyu to be unprepared, even if he wants to defeat him, it must be the second pursuit, the first pursuit, it is strange if he does not suffer losses!" He ordered the march to speed up and pounce on Li Wenhou's army.
At this time, Li Wenhou, who retreated in front, was really anxious, his army had no fighting spirit, and now as soon as he retreated, he was okay at first, but now it is getting more and more chaotic, many Qiang soldiers actually beat their horses and gallop wildly, which is how to lure the enemy, simply really escaped, if they escape too fast, in case the Fujiao army does not chase, then what can be done?
Li Wenhou gritted his teeth, the soldiers were gone, and they could recruit again, but if Li Qin was not killed this time, there would be no chance in the future. He shouted: "Order, line up to resist the enemy, let's fight here, fight with the Fujiao army, and then pretend to retreat again, and lead them to chase!" ”
The soldiers hurriedly passed the order down. But the order was passed down, but not even half of the Qiang soldiers who followed the command and stayed in the array. After all, the Qiang soldiers are not a regular army, and they are not much stronger than the Yellow Turban Army in the future, and they are getting braver and braver when they fight against the wind, but once they suffer setbacks, it will be difficult to make them persist to the end, after all, they have not been forced to a dead end, and they have not yet reached the point of playing to the end.
The Qiang soldiers lined up in a chaotic manner, and Li Wenhou stopped in front of the formation, his heart beating wildly, waiting for the arrival of the Fujiao army!
Fujiao military drum horn came, Shen Yi, who led the troops in front, saw the Qiang soldiers lined up, and immediately sent someone to report to Li Qin, Li Qin and Jia Xu immediately stepped forward to check the enemy's situation.
At this time, the sky was bright, and Jia Xu saw the army of the Qiang soldiers, and said with a smile: "Li Wenhou is not afraid, this is difficult to say, but the Qiang soldiers under his command are afraid, but they are certain." Ah Qin, let's not attack the past, bypass them and continue to advance, it won't take long for the Qiang soldiers to collapse, and there are not a few people left around Li Wenhou, and he won't be able to recruit people in the future! ”
Li Qin laughed and said, "Exactly! With a wave of his hand, the Fujiao army did not step forward to meet the battle, bypassed the position of the Qiang soldiers, and continued to move forward to support Leng Zheng.
As soon as the Fujiao army made a detour, the Qiang soldiers in the formation were silent for a moment, and suddenly the ground was chaotic. The Qiang soldiers also heard the rumors, saying that Li Wenhou secretly surrendered to the government, but the Qiang soldiers who could stay in the formation naturally did not believe the rumors, they trusted Li Wenhou, and did not believe that Li Wenhou would surrender.
However, the Fujiao army is so strong, and the number is not necessarily much smaller than the Qiang soldiers left, but it takes a detour, what does this mean? This shows that the rumors are true, Li Wenhou really secretly surrendered and betrayed the Qiang people! The Qiang soldiers left behind were extremely disappointed with Li Wenhou, they really never thought that their king would surrender, if he didn't surrender, why didn't the Fujiao army fight?
Many Qiang soldiers glared angrily at Li Wenhou, and the Qiang soldiers loyal to Li Wenhou gathered next to the king's horse, and the evil consequences of the rumors began to appear.
Li Wenhou looked at the Fujiao army in the distance and thought, "Is this a success in luring the enemy?" The Fujiao Army really chased after it! But, now I'm so bad, everyone else has to think that I've secretly surrendered! For a moment, I didn't know how to react.
After a while, a group of men and horses rushed from the west, also Qiang soldiers, but this group of Qiang soldiers was scared away by the Fujiao army by the river, they came from afar, but now they have also arrived!
The Qiang general who led the troops saw that there were no Qiang soldiers besieging the city outside Yunwu County, and he was feeling strange, but he suddenly found Li Wenhou's army, and Li Wenhou's army seemed to be on the eve of internal strife.
Suddenly, General Qiang saw that Li Wenhou's army was in chaos, and he actually divided into two groups and began to fight, and the cries of killing traitors kept coming from the battlefield! General Qiang immediately understood that Li Wenhou had really betrayed ...... On the city wall, Chen Yi had already turned to the east city wall, holding a pergola in his hand, and was looking this way, while looking, he smiled hehehe: "It's really infighting, it's really infighting?" In the past, if we wanted to make the rebels infighting, we had to approve officials and give money, but this time we only released some rumors, and they were infighting. The crowd is full of gold, accumulating and destroying bones, and the ancients will not deceive me! ”
