Chapter 112: Who Fell into Who's Trap

On the road from Shangzhou to Yunzhou, there is a canyon called Qingbee Gorge, which is very suitable for ambushes. Therefore, Ji Qingchen chose this place to ambush the Beirong grain robbery cavalry. He asked Bai Yang and Yu Wen to lead 20,000 cavalry to ambush at the mouth of the canyon, and when the transport team entered the canyon and led out the Beirong cavalry who robbed the grain, he let the two of them kill from both sides of the canyon, block the valley mouth, and attack back and forth, and destroy this Beirong cavalry in a battle.

The reason why he dared to be so sure that the Beirong cavalry was robbing grain here was because out of this canyon, it was a horse and a flat river, and it would take less than two days to transport the team to reach Caozhou, and the Beirong cavalry was no matter how bold it was, but they didn't dare to rob grain near Caozhou City in broad daylight, so they could only choose the place to rob grain in Qingfeng Gorge.

On this day, in the morning, Ji Qingchen, who had just finished eating noodles, was listening to the scout's report, saying that the transportation team would reach the Qingfeng Gorge at dusk, so he ordered the army to rest and prepare for battle in the afternoon.

It had been two days since he arrived at Qingfeng Gorge, and the transportation team had arrived at Qingfeng Gorge one day later than he had imagined, which made him suspicious.

But the tactics had been arranged, and the army was ready, so he was not prepared to retreat back to the city. Besides, if he really wants to retreat and return to the city, it is equivalent to giving the food and silver money this time to the Beirong people, and he will definitely not do this. So seeing that it was already in the afternoon, he ordered the army to prepare for an attack.

In the setting sun, a caravan slowly travels.

The scale of this caravan was very large, except for the eight horse-drawn carriages in the middle, which were loaded with mahogany chests, which seemed to be very heavy, and the rest of the carriages were filled with rice and flour.

In addition to this, the convoy was escorted by an army of 2,000 people. It can be described as immense.

However, when the caravan reached the mouth of the Aomine Gorge, it stopped. Because the head of the caravan and the general who escorted it along the way were at odds over whether to cross the canyon before dark. The person in charge of the caravan thought that it was almost dusk, and the canyon was dark and long, and it seemed inappropriate to enter the valley at this time, for fear that he would be robbed of food by bandits or bandits. However, the guard general didn't think so, he felt that his 2,000 men and horses were enough to protect the safety of the caravan, and besides, the Caozhou front line was already short of food, and the caravan could not delay any longer, otherwise it would affect the battle situation in Caozhou City.

The two sides insist on each other's words, and they do not give in to each other.

After all, one of the seven great Yan families of the Shangzhou Wei clan, regardless of their status and power, the steward in charge of this caravan was not afraid of the guard generals at all.

However, after a heated argument, the steward of the caravan compromised.

Because the words of the guard general sent a chill down his spine, saying that if there was a delay along the way, causing Caozhou City to fall into a crisis due to lack of food, who should bear this responsibility? The steward of the caravan is no matter how bullish it is, but this is a big thing that delays the fighter plane and can affect the military situation, and he can't afford this responsibility, so he can only compromise and order the caravan to move forward.

In this way, the caravan sailed into the Aomine Gorge in the afterglow of the setting sun.

However, as soon as the caravan reached the middle of the canyon, it heard the sound of horses' hooves in front of it, and then saw a swarm of iron horsemen rushing out and heading straight for the caravan.

"There's an enemy attack! Prepare for battleβ€”" the caravan's escort general immediately ordered.

But as soon as he finished speaking, he saw a feathered arrow burst out of the air and shot into his throat, and he died like this!

There was no main general's soldiers, and because the horses in the caravan were frightened, they began to gallop, which made the central area of the canyon fall into chaos, and then saw that there were 30,000 Beirong cavalry, and the caravan guards did not even have the courage to fight, so they fled back to the road, leaving hundreds of thousands of grain, grass and silver money to the Beirong cavalry.

The Beirong cavalry that appeared was the Zhenghuang Banner of Hakesu, and the leaders of the troops were all called Suda, who was Hakesu's brother-in-law, and he was also a brave general who could fight well. When he saw that the caravan's guards and the people transporting the grain had run out, he did not order the pursuit, but joyfully took over the caravan's carts.

"Please click on it, how many good things are there!" Suda ordered. The guards beside him were ordered to leave, and they came back in the middle of the ring and reported to him, "Go back to the capital, two hundred carts of rice and flour, and eight carts of copper coins, which are worth about 300,000 yuan. ”

"300,000 copper coins alone?" Su Da's eyes widened, a little incredulous, and he came back to his senses after half a ring, and said indignantly, "This grandma's Yanren is rich!" Brothers, bring all the things, don't leave anything to the Caozhou Yan army, and we will return to the camp immediately. ”

The 30,000 Beirong cavalry received the order and began to drive the cart, escorting the grain and silver money to go back.

But at this moment, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves at the mouth of the valley in front of him, but seeing the dust, when a cavalry charged to a distance of less than six hundred paces in front of Suda, he saw clearly that the cavalry of the Yan Kingdom appeared in front of him, and the number was about 20,000.

When the two armies met, without politeness and greetings, they launched a direct attack.

20,000 Yan cavalry killed the Beirong cavalry of Zhenghuang Banner, and Su Da also ordered 10,000 cavalry to hold food and silver, and after 10,000 cavalry, 10,000 cavalry met the Yan cavalry that rushed to his front.

"Kill-" Poplar was the first to rush into the camp of the Beirong cavalry, and the 20,000 cavalry of the Longxiang Army behind him raised their spears and collided with the Beirong cavalry like him, and the two sides began a brutal fight.

"Poof-" Poplar took the lead in attacking the Beirong camp, and with a spear, he pierced the throat of a Beirong centurion, and once again, he retracted his gun, and he killed forward. He had 20,000 cavalry around him, and the other party only sent 10,000 cavalry, so he was relieved to let the army charge and kill him, and he himself specially found the centurion and the thousand-commander in the Beirong cavalry.

However, the Beirong cavalry is worthy of being the elite of the cavalry, especially the Zhenghuang Banner elite cavalry who used to be Nuhachi's personal guard, even if they met the 20,000 Longxiang cavalry, with one against two, but they still did not fall behind, and the more they fought, the more courageous they became, and there were faint signs of suppressing the 20,000 Longxiang cavalry.

"Poof-" Su Da also slashed down a Longxiang military captain with a knife, and laughed wildly, "The Yan Kingdom Longxiang Army is nothing more than that!" ”

But as soon as he finished speaking, he heard a scream behind him, and when he looked back, he saw that a cavalry of 20,000 Yan had already met the 10,000 cavalry he sent to the palace, and the two sides had already intersected with each other and fell into a fight.

Is this going to be a front and back attack?

Thinking of this, Su Da suddenly retracted his arrogant mentality, and there was a faint uneasiness in his heart.

He is not afraid of the 20,000 Yan cavalry that appears, that is, the 40,000 Yan cavalry, if he is against his 30,000 Zhenghuang Banner elite cavalry, he will also be cut and killed. But now it's different, his 30,000 army is compressed into the canyon, and it is difficult to rush and kill, and in this case, it is really difficult to deal with the front and back of the Yan cavalry! Therefore, just thinking about it slightly, Su Da at this moment didn't care about the food and copper coins that he had snatched, and decisively gave the order to break through, "Brothers, don't care about food and copper coins, go with me!" ”

"Kill-" The Beirong cavalry received the order and slaughtered Bai Yang and his 20,000 Longxiang cavalry.

Bai Yang and 20,000 cavalry of the Long Xiang Army were suddenly killed by nearly 20,000 Beirong cavalry, and there were almost signs of collapse, but fortunately, Bai Yang gave the order to fight to the death, so that the situation could be stabilized, and Yu Wenshu on the other side led another 20,000 cavalry to closely pursue the Beirong cavalry that broke through is a fierce slash, so that the Beirong cavalry guards could not care about each other.

Only then did the 30,000 Beirong cavalry trap in the canyon.

……

On the east side of the canyon, Meng Buge, who was hidden in the woods, received a report from the scouts and said to his younger brother Haksu, "It seems that Ji Qingchen has taken the bait, should we attack now?" ”

This ploy was devised by Hacksu, and he naturally had to listen to Hacksu's advice.

"Brother Eleven, let's wait!" Ha Kesu was calm, and he muttered, "The Yan cavalry that appeared in the canyon this time is only 40,000 horses, which is too few, and I am afraid that Ji Qingchen still has a back hand." ”

"Indeed, last time he used 110,000 troops to ambush the Red Flag and the Red Flag, and today he only sent 40,000 horses, which is indeed a bit strange, so wait a little longer!" Meng Bugo said.

……

The west side of the canyon is a valley, and Ji Qingchen is also listening to the scout's report, and when he got that the poplars and Yuwen injuries in the Qingfeng Canyon had already exchanged hands with the Beirong Zhenghuang Banner, he asked Meng Li and Xu Dachun beside him, "The Beirong Zhenghuang Banner has been dispatched, do you think Meng Buge still has a backhand?" ”

"This time Beirong went south, except for the Yellow Banner of the Great Khan of Beirong, Mo Dahan, who only sent Tuobani and 800 cavalry, the remaining seven banners all gathered under the city of Caozhou, but in terms of combat power, the Zhenghuang Banner and the Zhengbai Banner are stronger than the Yellow Banner. Since the Zhenghuang Flag has appeared in Qingfeng Canyon this time, Meng Buge's Zhengbai Flag must be nearby, Mengli's suggestion is that we should wait first! Meng Likou replied.

"The last general thinks so, too." Xu Dachun supported Meng Li's proposal. Ji Qingchen nodded slightly, because he also thought so in his heart, the reason why he asked so just now was to see the judgment of Meng Li and Xu Dachun on the current battle situation, but he didn't expect that the judgment of the two was very correct, which made him very satisfied.

This was the game set by Ji Qingchen and Meng Buge for each other.

It's just that now both sides have suppressed their last force, wanting to strike a fatal blow at a critical moment.

It depends on which of the two cavalry fighting in the Qingfeng Gorge can have the upper hand!

If the Beirong cavalry had the upper hand, this would have to force Ji Qingchen to give the last cavalry in his hand a go. If the cavalry of the Longxiang Army had the upper hand, Meng Buge would not be able to see the 30,000 people of the Zhenghuang Banner ambushed in the Qingfeng Gorge, so he could only send the Zhengbai Banner to help. Therefore, when the main generals of the two sides, Ji Qingchen and Meng Buge, used their wisdom to this extent, all that was left now was to compete with each other's concentration and who was more ruthless, to see who couldn't bear the heavy losses of their own soldiers and took the initiative to attack.
