Xu You's head hurts.

He didn't know if he was really useless, or if the opponent was smarter than he imagined, and after sending troops, he couldn't find any opportunities at all. When the book is used, there is less hatred? No, it's more like the book is a lie.

Throughout the ages, there have been many examples of defeating the strong with the weak, such as ambushes, misdirection, water attacks, fire attacks, and food routes...... There are countless ways to do this, but when the two armies face each other, Xu You searched his stomach, but he couldn't find a suitable trick to apply.

Ambush?

That's how he designed it from the beginning. He believes that the tactics of the Qingzhou army, cavalry and infantry often act separately, and the opponent's scout net is not too large, this is an opportunity to try to break through individually. To this end, he set up a large pocket array, and took out hundreds of cavalry as bait, just waiting for the wind cavalry to get in.

It is not entirely impossible to set up an ambush on the plains, as long as the command is sufficient, the army can respond in time, the enemy will also be led by the nose, and the army can hide for miles away to set up an ambush and sneak attack.

Xu You's preparation is not insufficient, and he has also invested a lot of money. The hundreds of cavalry who were used as bait to deceive and defeat were all Yan Rou's henchmen, who had good riding skills and dared to fight hard. In addition, he even pulled all the 20,000 cavalry under his command and blew the cold wind in the field for three or four hours, just to eat half of the light cavalry of the Qingzhou army.

His thoughts were not in vain, and the Tempest Cavalry did take the bait, and even chased into the ambush circle in one go, killing the horse thieves who were used as bait to kill very little.

However, just when Xu Yu thought he had a plan and ordered the army to besiege him. found that the other party finished eating the bait and patted his belly unhurriedly. It seemed that he found a direction at random, but he rushed out of the encirclement that was not fully formed.

Dumbfounded. Xu You finally remembered the rumor about Zhao Yun, the commander of the Wind Cavalry...... Weak clicks? How could anyone have such a strange talent?

If Zhao Yun personally led the team every time, it would be impossible to ambush or anything, and he could even wait until the ambush was everywhere before Shi Shiran turned around, Xu You couldn't think of how to surround this person.

An army of 20,000 seems like a lot, but it can be distributed in an encirclement formed within a radius of nearly ten miles, how can there be no flaws at all? Even if the flaws are completely filled, how thin will the encirclement network become? With the martial arts of Zhao Yun's ten thousand enemies, and the combat power of Qingzhou's elite cavalry. It's easy to fight your way out.

The ambush road was broken, Xu You was not discouraged, Zhao Yun's strength against the sky had already been shocked in the battle of the boundary bridge, and it was normal to not be able to catch him, and then think of another way.

Speaking of various breaks, it is also a way to attack Qingzhou's foot soldiers while the Qingzhou cavalry is out to sweep.

However, the defense of the Yulin Army was too stable. The generals in the army, including Yan Rou, had ugly faces after coming back from peeking into the camp of the Yulin Army, and when Xu You raised the idea of attacking the camp again. One by one, the gums rattled and their bodies trembled like sifting chaff. They were all terrified.

Fire attack? Not to mention that there are no patches of woods in the wild, even if there are. How big a forest is it to allow nearly 30,000 troops to get into it. Waiting for someone else to set it on fire?

As for the water attack, it is even more nonsense, unless Xu Yu can move mountains and seas with spells. Otherwise, there would be no big river in this place in western Liaoning that could drown an army of 30,000.

For seven or eight days in a row, Xu You racked his brains and tried his best, but he couldn't take advantage of the slightest, and the losses each time were not too much, but the losses before and after added up to more than 1,600 horsemen, close to 10% of the total strength! And at such a big price, he couldn't even slow down the advance of the Qingzhou Army.

Every time he convened everyone to discuss the matter, Xu You felt that his face was hot, as if he had been slapped with a bow left and right. Yan Rou and the leaders of Wuhuan are not very good at hiding their hearts, dissatisfaction and ridicule are clearly put on their faces, Xu You has done enough foreshadowing before he appeared to see him, and the way he appeared was even more like a worldly master, but when it came to the real chapter, he was so embarrassed, how could people not despise it?

The commander of the Han army does not seem to be surprising, neither has the martial arts of 10,000 enemies, the majesty of beheading generals and capturing the flag, nor does he have any unpredictable strategies, whether it is offensive or defensive, it is not him who commands the battle, but the original commander of each army.

But the more this happens, the more it brings out Xu Yu's incompetence. Before sending troops, he spoke loudly, but he really handed it over, and he couldn't even force the other party to make a move, and the word incompetence is probably not enough to describe him.

Waste, embroidered pillows, paper talk...... The Wuhuan and horse thieves spit out Xu You's groove with all the negative words they knew, and if they hadn't been able to think of anything themselves, maybe someone would have stood up and seized power long ago.

Seeing his own situation, Xu You was also anxious.

For a long time, he thought that Wang Yu was just lucky, scheming, and if he changed places, he would have decades of experience more than the other party, and he would definitely only be strong and not weak, who would have thought that this gap was really big.

Could it be that the destiny really lies in the child? No, it's just that the quality of some Hu people is too far from the Han army, and they can't perfectly execute their plans, otherwise even if there is a gap, they won't be like this!

"General Xian Yu has arrived on the west bank of Fengdashui, completely cutting off the back road of the Han army, ensuring that not a single grain of corn can be delivered to the Eastern Invading Army!" Xu You waited for bloodshot eyes, gritted his teeth and said.

He thought that Xian Yufu would come earlier, so he didn't tell the other party the speculation that the Han army might set up an ambush, but it seems that after the defeat of Youzhou, Xian Yufu is also a lot smarter than before, and deliberately chose the safest time to set out.

Feng Dashui is the boundary river of Xingcheng and Suizhong County in later generations, Liugu River, and the white wolf water and Tang water that were renamed the big and small Ling River in later generations and called the three major rivers in western Liaoning.

The middle and lower reaches of Fengdashui are very wide, with an average of more than 600 paces, and at this moment the spring is already strong, and across such a wide river, the possibility of the Eastern Expeditionary Army killing a horse gun has become very low.

Xian Yufu deliberately chose to make a move after the Han army crossed the river, out of prudence, but his caution. It also made Xu You's pinch attack plan completely bankrupt, and at the same time delayed for several more days.

It's just that Xu Yu doesn't have any plans now. Anyway, Xian Yufu is better than not coming. Although the battle in the past few days has been very good, it has finally caused a certain diversion effect on the Qingzhou army. It makes people see the indomitable spirit of Wuhuan people and the courage to face strong enemies......

"But the morale of the Han army is still very high, and I can't see that I have run out of food."

"What kind of food shortage? Have you ever seen the spiritual head of the Han cavalry? Don't talk about people, just look at their horses, that horse, hey, the fur is oily and slippery, and when it runs, it shakes its head and tail, and its spirit is terrible! They're attacking day and night. If it hadn't been for the food, the horse would have died of exhaustion in patches. ”

"Didn't you say it in your brother's letter? He just closed the road, but he never robbed the grain, not a single car, you say, does this Han people have any spells that can conjure food? ”

"It's hard to say. I heard that the current hussar general is a wisp of heroic soul after the death of Huo Hussar. Attached to the body of a waste...... Because he died once and was canonized by the Heavenly Court, his ability is even greater than when he was alive...... What the hell is it? Well, it's the kind that can fight with the Immortal Heavens. ”

The more you talk about it, the more evil it becomes. The topic quickly deviated from Xu You's original intention.

He originally wanted to boost morale, but if it went on like this, morale was getting lower and lower. Even the myths and legends have come out, and there is a good one?

But Xu You couldn't help it. As his aura of wisdom faded, even Yan Rou didn't take his words seriously. What's more, these wild people who have always respected the strong?

Hastily ended the military discussion, Xu You returned to his tent, frowned, and sighed.

In the midst of sorrow, the tent door was suddenly opened, and when Xu You looked up, it was Wu Yan who came uninvited, and the expression on his face was quite strange.

"My lord, this is ......" Xu You was shocked for a while, he didn't know what the other party was going to do when he suddenly broke in, could it be that he was about to seize power?

Wu Yan grabbed the messy hair and said with a smile: "I want to discuss with Mr. how to defeat the Han army." ”

"......" Xu You didn't know how to answer for a while, because the battle on the front line was unfavorable, and Wuyan's reputation among the clan had dropped a lot compared to before, and since the army was dispatched, the military discussion has been silent. If it is said that he is in Taoguang in the military discussion, he has long been confident in private...... Can this still be a nonsense?

"Actually, before Brother Qi died, he said something to me, I don't remember exactly what he said, anyway, it means that everyone has to work hard to get through the difficulties. These days, Mr. has also done his best, but the Han army is more powerful, and that is unimaginable......"

Xu You didn't expect to be able to say such intimate words from the mouth of a Hu man, and he was immediately moved, Huo Ran got up, held Wu Yan's arm, and said emotionally: "Brother Wu Yan is really a person in temperament, and his nature is simple, just like Puyu. ”

"Actually, I'm not that good......" Wu Yan couldn't fully understand, but he roughly knew that he was praising himself, and grinned: "Well, I came this time because I got a piece of news, I don't know if it's true or not, and I have to ask Mr. to distinguish it." ”

As soon as he heard that the other party was here to ask for advice, Xu You regained the dignity of a wise man, flicked his long beard, waved his hand and said, "Brother Wuyan just speaks." ”

"The grain and grass of the Han army were transported from the sea and ...... by boat"

"Oh." Xu You nodded, but he didn't care much, the Han army's ships transported grain had long been within his expectations, but the question was, how huge is the consumption of 30,000 troops and 20,000 war horses, how can a few sea ships be satisfied? That is, the Hu people have never seen the world, so they are just making a fuss.

Seeing Xu You's disdain, Wu Yan suddenly became anxious: "It's true, several rangers in my clan, after being captured by the Han army, saw it with their own eyes...... "What he said was the experience of An Mosi's people:"...... In that place, the Han army built a stockade, and their boat went very fast, going back and forth, that is, in three or five days! ”

The Wuhuan people didn't have any concept of shipping, and it was just a few captured soldiers, and when Wuyan and the other leaders talked about it, they were all laughed at by each other. He thought about it and thought about it, and felt that only Xu You could understand himself. Now seeing Xu You's disapproving appearance, how can he not be in a hurry?

Xu You was really careless at first, but soon, his body sat up straight, his eyes widened, and finally he slapped his thigh, stroked his palm and smiled: "It's really nowhere to find the iron shoes, it takes no effort to get it, I just said that the enemy army can't have no flaws at all, it turns out that it's like this, good, good, good!" Wang Pengju, let's see what else you can save your life this time! (To be continued......)
