Chapter 312: Be cautious in the use of troops

Kankan approached the exit of the Sword Pavilion, and suddenly a huge noise sounded in front of him.

Xiang Zhuang hurriedly looked ahead, only to see a Biao Han army suddenly turned out from the front, blocking the entrance to the canyon at once, the first member of the red-robed Han general, wearing heavy armor, riding a horse on his hips, and the double iron halberds in his hands hit each other fiercely, and suddenly there was an explosion, and then he raised his head and shouted: "Zhou Guanfu of the Han Dynasty is here, Xiang Zhuang quickly came to die!" ”

Zhou Guanfu? Zhou Guanfu, who is known as the three horses in Guanzhong with Wang Qi and Lu Tai?!

Xiang Zhuang's heart suddenly sank slightly, Zhou Guanfu has the courage of ten thousand people, and the elite of the Han army behind him has thousands of people, not to mention thousands of people, and this Han army is a real veteran at a glance, a real elite of a hundred battles, and it is by no means comparable to the Bashu county soldiers encountered in Jiangzhou and Jiameng Pass before.

And what about the Sirius Guard behind him?

When Xiang Zhuang turned around, he saw that there were less than 500 people left behind him, and most of them were wounded, and Hu Yan's shoulders and backs were even more feathered arrows, which were extremely scary.

The only thing worth celebrating is that it seems impossible to ambush people on this cliff near the exit of the canyon, and when they get here, the Chu army finally no longer has to bear the flying feather arrows, rolling logs, rocks and flying spears! However, how could the more than 500 exhausted and wounded Sky Wolf Guards beat the elite of the Han army who were waiting for thousands of people?

"Piff Hugh is going to be rampant, and a certain person will fight you!" Huyan was furious and came out with his sword.

"Report the name of the comer, and this general will not kill the unknown under the halberd!" Zhou Guanfu turned over and dismounted, and shouted again.

The canyon is not flat and not suitable for riding battles, otherwise, Zhou Guanfu would never mind using horsepower to kill the Chu army general in front of him, who didn't seem to be easy to mess with.

Hu Yan Qingjian strode towards Zhou Guanfu, and shouted: "Some, the Great Chu Heavenly Wolf General - Hu Yan is also!" ”

"Huyan?! Watch General Ben take your dog's head! Zhou Guanfu laughed cruelly, suddenly shook off and strode up.

In just a moment, the two have already met head-on, Huyan's dumb moon sword and Zhou Guanfu's double iron halberd first came to a head-on impact without any tricks, only to hear the explosion of "Qiang", Huyan's tower-like body was shocked and took three steps back, on the other hand, Zhou Guanfu on the opposite side did not move at all.

What a strong brawl! Hu Yan's pupils shrank slightly.

Zhou Guanfu's eyes also narrowed slightly, where did this guy come from? If it weren't for the fact that the other party was tired from fighting for a long time, and he was injured by an arrow, he would definitely not be able to get a little cheap for this blow, except for Xiang Zhuang, when did Chu Jun have such a difficult guy? !

After a slight pause, Hu Yan and Zhou Guanfu pounced forward again, and the swords and halberds fought together.

Hu Yan and Zhou Guanfu were fighting fiercely, but Xiang Zhuang had a sharp calculation in his mind, there was a Han army in front of him, and he was afraid that there was little hope for a forced breakthrough, so turn back? The fire at the entrance of the canyon is afraid that it has been extinguished, but the thousands of Han troops who are ambushed on the cliffs on both sides are afraid that they have also descended into the canyon.

Intercepted before and after, and there were chasing soldiers later, the Chu army really became a turtle in the urn!

Xiang Zhuang couldn't help but look up to the sky and sighed, since the wild horse was in charge of the army, he has always taken risks and launched gambling attacks on the enemy army with outnumbered attacks, and every time it has been, but this time, it is planted, completely planted! However, it is not a loss to be able to be buried in the Sword Pavilion, but it is a pity that the great cause of recovering Chu is afraid that it will be ruined in one fell swoop.

When Xiang Zhuang was sighing, Qu Bucai suddenly came to him in a hurry with Tang Tong.

"King!" Tang Tong covered the gap on his face that was cut open by the Han army's flying spear, and gasped, "Villain, villain knows that there is still a sheep intestine trail here that can lead directly to Langzhong, and we can escape from this trail." ”

"Sheep intestine trail?!" Xiang Zhuang was overjoyed when he heard this, and said urgently, "Where, where?" "There, there." Tang Tong stretched out his hand and pointed to the cliff on the left side and said, "Has the king seen that huge rock crevice?" There is a cave behind the rock crevice, you can go straight to the back mountain, the villain also came here to hunt when accidentally discovered, and later went with the clan from the back mountain, and found that it can go straight to the outside of Langzhong City. ”

"Let's go!" Xiang Zhuang didn't hesitate at the moment, turned around and left.

##########

When Bai Mo rushed to the exit of the Sword Pavilion with the main force of the Han army, Xiang Zhuang had already run away with the Chu army.

Zhou Guanfu chased the Han army into the rock crevice, but was ambushed at the exit at the other end, and after losing dozens of people, Zhou Guanfu quickly folded back, the rock crack was too narrow, and the Chu army guarded the outside like a cat guarding a mouse, waiting for the Han army to run out one by one to die, and after losing dozens of people, Zhou Guanfu gave up.

"Shengzhi, what about the Chu soldiers?" Bai Mo looked around and asked Zhou Guanfu.

Zhou Guanfu stretched out his hand and pointed to the rock crack on the left side, and sighed: "Ran from there." ”

"Ugh." Bai Mo also sighed, and said regretfully, "What a good opportunity, I didn't kill Xiang Zhuang." ”

Bai Mo can't help but regret it, if he can kill Xiang Zhuang in the Sword Pavilion, the Chu State is afraid that it will immediately fall into civil strife, and the Great Han Kingdom can also sweep away a strong enemy in an instant!

Zhou Guanfu said disapprovingly: "Although we failed to kill Xiang Zhuang this time, we at least killed the two thousand elites of the Chu army. After saying this, Zhou Guanfu said again, "But Zuo Xiang, how can you be sure that Jia Meng Pass has been lost?" And on what basis is it concluded that the Chu army will attack Hanzhong in a hurry? ”

When he walked here in the morning, Bai Mo suddenly ordered the whole army to stop advancing, and then personally led 4,000 troops to climb the cliffs on both sides of the Sword Pavilion and ambushed them, and ordered Zhou Guanfu to lead 1,000 elite soldiers to ambush at the north exit of the Sword Pavilion.

Until now, the battle has been won, and Zhou Guanfu has not yet figured out the reason.

Bai Mo waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Shengzhi, let's not talk about this first, the Chu army is newly defeated, and it is from this trail, the defenders of Chu on Jiameng Pass don't know the news yet, and the garrison must be empty, you hurry up and lead the troops to recapture Jiameng Pass!" As for the question you just mentioned, I will explain it to you on the road. ”

"Whoa!" Zhou Guanfu suddenly responded, turned his head and shouted, "Order, the whole army is assembled!" ”

At the sound of an order, the canyon sounded a continuous sound of horns, or lying or sitting on the ground to rest the Han soldiers got up one after another, and sorted out their suits and armaments as quickly as possible, and then lined up in a neat queue under the reprimand of the colonels at all levels......

Zhou Guanfu approached Bai Mo again and said, "Zuo Xiang, can you talk about it now?" ”

Bai Mo nodded and said, "Shengzhi, there is only one explanation, and that is - only be cautious with soldiers!" ”

"Be cautious with your troops?" Zhou Guanfu was confused when he heard it, and said puzzledly, "Zuo Xiang, what do you mean?" ”

Bai Mo breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "Actually, I can't be sure that Jiameng Pass has been lost, so I decided to give up rushing to aid Jiameng Pass and set up an ambush in the Sword Pavilion, it is completely out of prudence, Xiang Zhuang's use of troops is extremely deceitful, and Jin Shewan is not an opponent, so the possibility that Jiameng Pass has been lost before we arrive is very high!" ”

Zhou Guanfu nodded silently, just in terms of using soldiers, Jin She couldn't catch up with Xiang Zhuang.

Bai Mo said again: "If Jiameng Pass has been lost, we will inevitably meet the Chu army on a narrow road if we go again, and the outcome of the fierce battle is really unpredictable, but if we set up an ambush in the Sword Pavilion instead, the Chu army is very likely to be ambushed, no matter how powerful Xiang Zhuang is, I would never have imagined that the three thousand elites with you would appear in the Sword Pavilion at this time!" "...," but ......," Zhou Guanfu said again, "Zuo Xiang, why are you sure that Xiang Zhuang will take the risk of attacking Hanzhong after attacking Jiameng Pass?" Although Xiang Zhuang couldn't imagine the existence of these 3,000 parts of you and the last general, but Xi Juan, the guard of Hanzhong County, would definitely send troops after receiving Jin She's urgent report, so Xiang Zhuang was not afraid that Xi Juan's army would ambush him halfway? ”

Bai Mo said: "Of course Xiang Zhuang knows that Xi Juan will send troops, but he will never give up the opportunity to win in danger!" ”

Saying this, Bai Mo said again: "Over the years, this minister has read many examples of Xiang Zhuang, and found that this person is extremely advocating offense with soldiers, even if he is in a desperate situation, he is never willing to defend passively, it is said that this person's creed is that offense is the best defense, so this minister asserts that Xiang Zhuang will definitely attack Hanzhong after attacking Jiameng Pass!" ”

"That's how it came to be." Zhou Guanfu nodded, and said, "Zuo Xiang, the last general thought that you were only familiar with political affairs, and you didn't want to use soldiers to be so powerful, I'm afraid that even the king and the military advisor are also blindsided." ”

Bai Mo waved his hand and said indifferently: "In terms of the use of soldiers alone, when the first thing to do is to recommend King Qi Han Xin today, I am afraid that it will be my junior brother's turn, as for the true appearance, it is just cautious." ”

Zhou Guanfu frowned and said, "Zuo Xiang, is your junior brother really so powerful?" ”

Bai Mo said: "When we were studying in the master's school, our brothers debated the art of war, and we never won in this way. ”

"Debating the art of war? This is just paper. Zhou Guanfu pursed his lips and said disappreciably, "In terms of the art of war alone, I'm afraid there are few people who can compare to Zhao Kuo seventy years ago, but in the end?" Commander Zhao Kuo's 400,000 Zhao army didn't just let Qin kill Bai Qi? It's just that reading the art of war too much is useless. ”

"Zhao Kuo?" Bai Mo shook his head and said, "If it weren't for King Zhao's mediocrity, he would have put the burden of the whole country on Zhao Kuo, if King Zhao could let Zhao Kuo first exercise and grind under Lian Po's account for a period of time, and when he accumulated enough actual combat experience, wouldn't he be another famous general who can be known in the world as the four famous generals?" ”

Zhou Guanfu was silent, he had always hated the art of war, and he was quite unimpressed by Bai Mo's words.

Bai Mo sighed and persuaded: "Familiarity with the art of war may not lead to becoming a famous general, but if you are not familiar with the art of war, you will definitely not become a famous general. ”

Zhou Guanfu only agreed, but he didn't take it seriously in his heart.

Reading a military book? He just had a headache just at the sight of that tadpole-like little print.
