Chapter 126 is a millimeter difference

If you follow the thinking mode and reaction mode of ordinary people, when you encounter this situation, most of you choose to rush in a panic, but you can't run that way. **So after calmly analyzing the pros and cons, Zhao Ta decided to take a gamble and let his soldiers dismount and march slowly, swaggering under the noses of Xia Jun, as if he was deliberately waiting for them to catch up.

In fact, this is the 'psychological warfare' played, and this kind of gameplay is not new, like Zhuge Liang's empty city plan, Li Guang's suspicious military strategy, the Mandy landing battle in World War II, the Ardennes raid battle, etc., all have the shadow of psychological warfare, you can't say that the party who is fooled by others is stupid, you can only blame you for not seeing through the mystery. Therefore, to be a military commander, you must not only be familiar with the battle formation, but also be a 'psychologist' who can deeply observe people's hearts, which is like playing chess, the opponent looks at one step, you must be able to see two moves or more, so that he can guess what you will do next, but he can't see through how to move after this next step!

The Xia army fought more than ten times with the Xiangyi army in more than two months, and fought two battles, without tasting a victory. After a few times, the Xia army was a soldier.

The abnormal behavior of the Xiangyi army not to escape or avoid made the Xia army uncertain and did not dare to rush forward, because according to the logic of ordinary people, people can only be so calm and calm in the face of danger when they have a strong backing, when they are sure. Now I only see the banner of the commander of the Xiangyi army and the battalion flag of Tenglong and Xunshi, but there is no trace of the flying tiger and the jaguar, and the Xia army is even more convinced that there must be ambushes nearby, and these people are leading us into their trap, and we must not easily take risks.

Another reason is that Zhao Ta is really reluctant to catch those craftsmen. A good soldier can be trained in two or three years, but to train a craftsman for three or five years can only be regarded as just entering the mén, and it takes years of practice and rich experience to become a good craftsman, so these people are treasures.

Now the production capacity of his workshop in Xiangyi has been saturated, to increase the production of firearms, there is only one way to expand the scale, and skilled craftsmen are the bottleneck of development, so one of his important goals in this war is to capture these talents, the Western Xia is no worse than the Song Dynasty in the production and smelting of iron, and the yak horn bows, Western Xia arrows, and Qizi armor they make are all jīng products. Therefore, as long as these craftsmen are a little familiar, they can get started, and the cost is low, they don't have to pay wages, they just need to eat and live.

The Xiangyi army was in front, the Xia army was behind, the two armies were one mile apart, and they followed from morning to afternoon, they were fast, the Xia army was fast, they rested, and the Xia army did not dare to rest. It is said that Zhuge Kongming sang the empty city time, sweated three liters, and Sima Yi collapsed and couldn't stand up after retiring from the army, which shows that this big man is also very nervous.

Zhao Tan laughed with everyone while walking, wiping the sweat on his face from time to time, he understood why Zhuge Liang was sitting at the head of the city, he couldn't stand up tǐ soft, although he talked and laughed on his face, his stomach was also soft, and there was no bucket of sweat, and there were eight liters, he was also afraid, afraid that there would really be a 'second pole' in the Xia army and rush up desperately, then he would be stuffed.

The sky is heavy, the air seems to be able to wring out water, and there is not a trace of wind in the open grassland, which is rare in the northwest with a dry climate. "Lord Wang, Zhao Zhong sent someone to report that the former army has entered the Jialuchuan River Valley, and there are still three miles away from the village!" Zhao Ren said to the prince who was sitting on the ground resting.

"How far are we from Jialuchuan?" Zhao Ta asked after taking a sip of water.

"About fifteen miles away!" Zhao Ren looked around and said affirmatively.

"Well, pass it down quietly, give the war horse some water, eat some jīng ingredients, and use the sound of gunfire as a signal..."...,

"Lord Wang, let's kill him with a horse gun!" Zhao Ren's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he felt a gust of wind blowing at this time, and his body was a little cooler.

"Kill a fart, when you hear the gunshots, run fast on horseback, run as fast as you can!" Zhao Ta glared at him and said.

"Yes!" Zhao Ren's sweat came down again, what is the prince pondering, although he has been with the prince for so long, he still can't keep up with the prince's footsteps.

"Get on the horse!" After resting for half an hour, a trumpet sounded, and the two battalions of the Xiangyi Army got on their horses together, and the handsome flag, which had not moved for half a day, actually fluttered with the wind, and with the sound of the password, they relined themselves and moved forward slowly. As soon as this side moved, Xia Jun also became nervous, but they had been riding on the horse for a long time, and they didn't dare to slack off when they watched people eat and drink.

"One, two, three, shout!" Zhao Ta, who was riding on the horse, waved his hand violently and shouted loudly.

"Thank you for sending us off, we're home!"

"Thank you for sending us off, we're home!"

Thousands of people shouted in unison, the ground shook the mountains, "Run" Zhao Ta pulled out a gun in his hand, fired three shots at the sky, and the first prancing horse galloped, and the second baby followed closely with the handsome flag, and the whole army fled in the wilderness! Everyone is so angry in their hearts, running away is not a glorious thing, you say let's run, just run without chirping, and you have to tell people, isn't this not sick and looking for a disease? But the prince's child's heart, he was happy that everyone couldn't help it, slammed the horse's belly and followed the handsome flag

They were not happy, Xia Jun was even more unhappy, seeing them lined up, they thought that they were going to start attacking, nòng for a long time was to let the family play, this road was strictly guarded and ate for a long time, people did not dare to get off the horse, eating, drinking water and even sprinkling niào were solved immediately, now I want to run away when I say hello! At this time, it was the mud bodhisattva who was also angry, so that the good-tempered person couldn't hold it back, and ordered the forward battalion to chase after him, but after a while, the people in front had already run out of Erli.

The people and horses were racing all the way, and at this time, the wind was blowing stronger and stronger, and the face was painful, and Kawaguchi could already be seen in front of him. The Jialu River is right in front of you, where it flows into the valley of the Jialu River, crosses the valley to the east and joins the Balwei River and the Quye River, and flows into the Yellow River at Hehejin. Now that the weather is getting warmer, the snow-capped mountains are gradually becoming more meltwater, and the water level is rising, but the deepest river can only overflow the horse's knee, and the water surface is only one mile wide.

The Xia army's forward chased and chased the Xiangyi army with a horse's head and tail, now it is just a stone's throw away, seeing a big river in front of them, they slowed down the horse slightly, they are not stupid, they are afraid that the Xiangyi army will play with them and hit half-crossing, but the Xiangyi army has no such intention, and is bent on fleeing for their lives, and the speed is still not reduced after crossing the river and running towards the river valley. Now that the two armies were so close that they were met by a large army, they were not afraid of any more tricks, and the forward battalion followed after them, trying to catch them before they entered the fort.

"Lord Wang, I'll go back to the army to block them, otherwise they will catch up!" Running all the way, the war horses of the Xiangyi army were already tired, and the continuous battle consumed a lot of horsepower, Zhao Ren caught up with the prince and asked.

"No, just run forward, why hasn't it rained yet" Zhao Ta immediately refused, and said such a nonsensical word.

"Rain?!" Zhao Ren immediately woke up, although it was evening now, but the sky had already darkened, 'Ka Ka' God was like hearing the words of the prince, two thunderbolts sounded in the air, lightning illuminated the valley, the rain that had been held back for a day began to fall, and the raindrops of copper coins crackled and fell, but soon they couldn't tell the difference, it was like a scoop, there was a chaos in front of them, the road couldn't be seen clearly, and their speed had to be slowed down

"Not good!" He stationed at the side of the Ma River, ordered the army to stop advancing, look at the sky, and shouted, this kind of weather is rare in the northwest, especially in this season, "immediately order the forward battalion to return quickly!" ”…,

The army stopped by the river, but after a cup of tea, the river had become yellow, and the soldiers who gave the order walked to the middle of the river, only the horse's head was still on the river, and although the soldiers on the horse held the horse's neck, they tried their best to resist the impact of the current, but everything was in vain, and after a few struggles, even the man and the horse disappeared from everyone's sight.

"The striker camp is over!" The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and the trickling stream in the mountains has also become a beast that has escaped from the trap, mixed with dead branches and rotten trees roaring from the ravines into the Jialu River, the river rises rapidly, spreads to both banks, and the river surface becomes wider and wider, turning into a rolling jī stream rushing into the river at the mouth of the narrowed valley, and the opposite bank quickly disappears in the vast rain and fog.

"Alas, the heavens will help him, yù destroy my clan!" Ling Jiejie let out a long sigh and led the troops to retreat.

Zhao Ta woke up early, and as soon as the morning dawned, he put on his clothes and went to the head of the city, and the water had already spread to the base of the wall under the village, leaving only a path built along the mountainside, allowing only two horses to go parallel to the outside of the valley. The rain is still falling, the roar of the flood is terrifying, the valley has become an ocean of several miles wide, the cliffs on both sides are still collapsing, the stones the size of the carriage fall and are washed away without a trace in a blink of an eye, and the whole village is like a small boat tied to the sea, trembling in the stormy waters.

"The prince is really talented, he fought thousands of miles, not only broke through the important places, but also retreated, two thousand chasing soldiers did not spend an arrow and an arrow, and they were swallowed up by this surging water in a snap of their fingers, and they had to let the lower officials obey!" Wang Jin, who joined the army, bowed down and said, after taking Jialu Village, Zhao Ta asked him to preside over the military administration here, after all, this is his own retreat and cannot be lost.

"Hehe" Zhao Ta smiled bitterly, didn't answer, thinking about yesterday's events, he was still afraid, he underestimated the power of this heaven and earth, and the Xiangyi army, which had been working hard for many years, was almost ruined because of his temporary greed, and he couldn't do this kind of thing in the future!

Yesterday, Zhao Ta took the Xiangyi army to brave the torrential rain, just embarrassed into the Jialu Village, the flash flood came down, chased into the valley of the Xia Army forward battalion of more than 2,000 people but not so good luck, when I saw the heavy rain also realized that it was not good, I wanted to turn around and return to the army so as not to be trapped in the valley, and when the army adjusted the team after the former army was too late, the flood came too fast, even the people and horses were swept away by the torrent, and the hope of survival was almost equal to zero, if they were slowing down, they were an end, just a millimeter difference!
