Twelve, Maling Road Pang Juan in the plan

Saying that, the adjutant general looked at Pang Juan with sincere eyes, and said earnestly: "Relying only on the tired 90,000 chariot army, fighting against the 150,000 Qi army who are waiting for work, and in the case of unfamiliar terrain and unclear vision in the evening, the odds of victory are not good?" General! ”

Although Pang Juan was very annoyed after hearing this, what the adjutant general said was very reasonable, and he had no words to object, so he had to compromise and said to the adjutant general: "Then do as you say: camp in Zhencheng tomorrow." The day after tomorrow, we must catch up with the Qi army and fight it out! ”

The adjutant general smiled slightly, arched his hand and said, "The general is wise!" ”

The next day. The Wei army entered the Qi realm. To the east, it went straight to Zhencheng, which was sixty miles away from the border. When the Wei army set off, Pang Juan called the general of the two light cars, and repeatedly explained before ordering the march. Who knew that after arriving at Zhencheng at three o'clock in the afternoon, he was met with stubborn resistance from the Qi army stationed in Zhencheng.

The Qi army actually lined up a chariot formation in Zhencheng, and used chariots against chariots to resist the Wei army.

Pang Juan was overjoyed when he saw Qi Jun's sudden change of sex! I judged in my heart: This must be a covering force left by Sun Bin. The main force of the Qi army must be not far away, otherwise how could the Qi army resist desperately uncharacteristically? Moreover, this small Zhen City, once it is in Pingyang, there is no danger to defend. The Qi army also knew that only the mound-like Zhencheng city wall would collapse as soon as it collided, and it was impossible to defend the city at all, so the Qi army had to use a chariot formation to resist the pursuit of the Wei army. After Pang Juan thought of this, he called the three commanders of the leather chariot army and ordered them to divide into three sides to encircle this chariot army composed of less than 30,000 leather chariots and light chariots. After calling the five light car generals, they ordered them to leave an army behind and kill the Qi army that escaped from the encirclement of the leather car army on the periphery; The remaining four corps, continue to pursue and advance! As soon as you see that you are chasing the Qi army brigade, don't attack, report immediately! After Pang Juan and the army arrived, he would make plans. The task of your four armies is: to entangle the main force of the Qi army.

The four light car generals immediately took the order and led the army to leave Zhencheng and pursue towards the eastern Maling Road of Zhencheng.

Only then did Pang Jun order: attack the chariot army of Zhencheng. The Wei army is really well-trained, the tactics are novel, three bread copied from each side of a thousand leather carts, each car six warriors, the impact of the formation, only with three thousand taels of leather wagons rolled up by the smoke and dust, in the white-faced war drums, in the shouts of 30,000 throats, the cowardly, frightened have been scared to death, still fighting? Where has the Qi army seen this array of attacking vehicles, just when the Qi army was stunned, it was rushed into the battle formation by the Wei army. The rush of the Wei army's leather cart is to be described as a tiger entering the flock, and in less than half an hour, the battle array of the Qi army will be smashed!

The chariot array of the Qi army that was scattered became a chaotic string of wild horses for a while, and the Wei army had to chase around like a wild duck. This chase took more than an hour, and if it weren't for the speed of the light chariot army being faster than the leather chariot, it really wouldn't be able to surround this damn Qi chariot army. After most of the Qi army of about 30,000 people was annihilated, it was already unitary time. The lieutenant arrived just in time with the panting lightly armored samurai.

Pang Juan stared at the scattered Qi army that was fleeing not far away, and as soon as he saw the deputy general arrive on time, he was very happy to hand over Zhen Cheng to the deputy general, and he immediately led the leather chariot army and a light chariot army, and wanted to chase the Qi army later.

When the adjutant general saw that Pang Juan was going to chase the Qi army again, he violated yesterday's discussion, so he immediately stopped Pang Juan and persuaded: "General! At most, there will be an hour before it will be dark. Didn't we discuss it yesterday and set up camp in Zhencheng? You see that Prince Shen is so tired that he can't breathe, will he talk about it tomorrow? ”

Pang Juan looked at the adjutant general's sincere face that cared about him, and he couldn't bear to scold his loyal old subordinate, so he had to sigh and say what was in his heart: "Brother! You know, I've been waiting for thirteen years, so, I don't want to wait another thirteen years. Again: I have already sent four corps of light chariot troops in pursuit. I don't feel at ease if I don't go! Don't worry: I will rush to the Maling Road crossing, and after collecting the light car army, I will camp at the crossing, and enter Maling Road tomorrow. I can travel twenty miles in an hour, and I can reach the crossing at the most. Soldiers are fast. I rushed over like this, and I didn't even think of you, let alone Sun Bin. I calculated, Sun Bin's army fled to Maling Road at most. I can surround him in Maling Road tomorrow, which he never dreamed of. So be it! You and Prince Shen are tired, so you can rest in Zhencheng. After eating tomorrow, we will set off in the dark at the end of the day, and rush to fight at Malingdao at the end of the day. Let's annihilate Sun Bin in one fell swoop! That's it, I'm gone! So saying, he ordered the army to set off!

When Prince Shen saw that Pang Juan was about to advance again, he wanted to dissuade him, but the army had already set off, so he drove to catch up with Pang Juan regardless of fatigue and shouted to Pang Juan: "I'll go with you!" You must obey the word and set up camp at the Maling Road crossing! ”

Pang Juan smiled and shouted back: "Don't worry! I'm not an aggressive person, so how can I fight in the dark? ”

Prince Shen breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and followed Pang Juan to think about Ma Lingdao moving forward at a high speed.

The Qi army was not as useless as Pang Juan thought, according to the messengers sent back by the light chariot army along the way: the Qi army sent blocking troops along the way, blocking the Wei army along the way. However, the Qi army was cunning, and as soon as it came into contact with the Wei army, they retreated after a moment of fighting! The Wei army could see it, but it couldn't catch it, and the speed of catching up couldn't be raised. Now the light car army has chased to the Maling crossing, because it is late, the vision is not clear; Therefore, after tens of thousands of Qi troops, with a golden sound, retreated into Maling Road, they disappeared. Please instruct the General!

Pang Juan was even more anxious when he heard this, and rushed desperately to Ma Ling Road. When he arrived at the west exit of Maling Road, it was already the beginning of the hour. He stood on the car and looked: there was a black rumbling in the road, and he urgently ordered the army to stop.

After the army stopped, he asked the four commanders of the light chariot about the situation of chasing the Qi army, and it was not until the four generals confirmed that the Qi army had a maximum of 150,000 men and a minimum of more than 100,000 men, and then he jumped out of the chariot. He stood in front of the car and thought for a while, then ordered his guards to hold the torches, and after walking into the road himself for a thousand steps, he knelt down to observe the ruts under the light of the torches. He saw that the ruts in the ground were chaotic, and the whole road was in disarray, which was obviously a sign of retreat. Only then did he get up from the ground, and he was moved to let the boiled ducks fly away.

In order to be cautious, Pang Juan ordered a hundred light cars to move forward cautiously! An hour later, the 100 light car turned back safely. Light Car Report: They walked all the way to the east exit of the road, and saw that there were still signs of retreat in chaos along the way, and the host crossing was unobstructed. Three miles before the exit, we didn't find the Qi army. Please advise the General!
