Chapter 732: Flooding
To the surprise of the generals, Fu Gongyou did not choose to fight hard, but used the way of a strong man breaking his wrist and abandoning the two teams of the front army.
Fu Gongyou said to his subordinates: "There is no need to fight, I just need to recruit the camp and the Danyang army to be there, it's okay, the Zhao army is attacking our outcasts, but there is Song Jingang's team to block it, and we have to make a detour." ”
Hearing that the former army was abandoned, although this was expected, the soldiers were a little unbearable on their faces.
But at this time, when I heard that the chasing soldiers of the Zhao army in the rear were catching up again, and they were less than three or five miles away from the rear guard of the Jianghuai army, seeing that they were unable to protect themselves, all the generals heard that they were all mentioning it, and they were no longer worried about this lost front army.
At the moment, Fu Gongyou led the Jianghuai army to bypass Huze in front, although the travel distance was extended, but this day was never met again. However, the former army of the Jianghuai Army should have been annihilated by the Zhao Army.
At night, when the curtain was closed, the Jianghuai army chose a slope next to the river to camp on. The tabernacle is lined up on the slope.
The scouts of the Jianghuai army were all dispersed, and they strictly investigated the vicinity to beware of the Zhao army and horses coming to attack the camp at night.
Fu Gongyou briefly counted the men and horses, the most elite camp still has more than 3,000 horses, compared with the 5,000 people in Du Fuwei, there is not much loss, but the Danyang soldiers have been reduced from 10,000 horses before entering Xuzhou to less than 3,000 now, and the rest of the men and horses are five or six thousand, but these are all chicken ribs in Fu Gongyou's opinion, used to fill the number of cannon fodder.
At night, the torches were blowing, the horses' hooves sounded, and hundreds of cavalrymen rushed to the camp, and the cavalry robes were mostly stained with blood, but they were in good spirits.
As a general, it is the high rank of the auxiliary prince and the righteous son. He jumped off his horse and went directly into the tent of the Chinese army.
Fu Gongyou and the generals were deliberating, Gao Xiang threw off his cloak and knelt down and kowtowed: "Father-in-law." I have just captured Fuli County and captured the county order that surrendered to the Zhao army. ”
Fuli County is the county seat south of Xuzhou. The city wall is high and thick, and Gao Xiang actually captured this county with a team of cavalry, which shows that his army is very brave.
Fu Gongyou didn't seem surprised that Gao Xiang captured the county seat, but just asked, "How did you ask something from the county order?" ”
Gao Xiang said: "Although this person doesn't know about the deployment of the Zhao army's defensive line, he also found out a few pieces of news from his mouth, the Tang army sent to reinforce Xuzhou Zhang Zhenzhou has been repulsed, and now he can only retreat to protect himself." There are no reinforcements around our troops. In addition, Zhao Jun transferred 3,000 civilian servants from the county yesterday, I don't know what it was for? ”
Fu Gongyou was silent.
At this time, a general stepped forward and persuaded: "Fugong, we can break through in any direction." Only I can't go back to Koto! ”
"Why?" Fu Gongyou turned his head.
The general said: "Li Chongjiu expected us to return to Jiangdong, so on the way, he set up many ambushes to annihilate our army. ”
Fu Gongyou heard this: "How could I not know, but our army started in Jiangdong, and when I heard that Jiangdong had fallen, the soldiers had to return to their hometowns in their dreams, if I told the soldiers that I would not go to Jiangdong." Don't wait a moment, and the whole army will mutiny. So knowing that Li Chongjiu was in ambush, I still had to go. ”
Hearing Fu Gongyou say this, all the generals hung their heads.
"Auxiliary Gong. We think that following you will definitely stand out from the encirclement. The generals said one after another.
Fu Gongyou smiled and said: "I also have this certainty to take you back to Jiangdong, Li Chongjiu is not Liu Bang, and I am not Xiang Yu!" ”
Fu Gongyou's voice just fell. Suddenly, there was the sound of soldiers running outside the tent, and countless soldiers shouted at this time, "It's not good." Oh no, the flood is coming. ”
Fu Gongyou was stunned. He had set up his tent on the edge of the creek, which was no deepest than the leg of his trousers, and how could it turn into water.
"Father-in-law, it must be Zhao Jun who is using the upstream weir as a dam, and after our army is camped, he will dig a dike and release water!" Gao Xiang told the truth in one word.
Fu Gongyou's brows were twisted into Sichuan characters, and he said angrily: "Bastard! ”
At this time, Fu Gongyou walked out of the tent with his sword, but saw that the soldiers outside the tent were rushing to run, and the water outside was turbulent, and a yellowing river rushed into the military camp of the Jianghuai army.
And against the bank of the river there was a row of large camps, more than thirty tents, all of which were washed away. Thousands of soldiers were carried away by the torrent without even having time to react, and the flood rushed into the camp.
"Quick, immediately pull out the camp, the Zhao army will arrange men and horses to ambush by this river, and when the flood is exhausted, it will definitely be killed."
Fu Gongyou is also experienced, and immediately said Zhao Jun's intentions. So all the Jianghuai troops in the tent retreated to the side and regrouped on the high ground.
Just as the Jianghuai army had just regrouped, from behind the mountain beam at the other end of the river, there was a loud shout of killing.
In an instant, a row of torches appeared on the mountain beam, gathered together and rushed down the mountain beam, the torches gathered more and more, and countless people and horses crossed the mountain beam, holding torches to join the torrent of soldiers.
The Zhao army is out in ambush!
Seeing this, Fu Gongyou said: "Follow me left and right to kill out!" ”
When the words fell, the Jianghuai soldiers all shouted together, and rushed up against the Zhao army surging from the mountain beam. His righteous son Gao Xiang rode a horse to lead hundreds of elites to rush forward, while Fu Gongyou was the most elite recruiting camp in the Jianghuai army.
On the hillside, the generals of the Zhao army, Zhang Qingte, Jiang Shanhe, Li Yiman and others were stunned when they watched the Jianghuai army kill.
Zhang Qingte said: "I didn't expect that the Jianghuai Army knew that it was in ambush, and it dared to attack head-on!" ”
Jiang Shanhe, the chief general among the three people, said: "That is, the Jianghuai army is still sharp, and His Majesty gave us an order not to fight hard with the Jianghuai army, and it is enough to consume its men." In my opinion, our men and horses should not block the intersection head-on, it is better to let the Jianghuai army go head-on, and then intercept and kill the end. ”
Li Yiman said: "That's right, our three subordinates are just county soldiers, and their training equipment is not as good as the elite of the Jianghuai Army. The matter of the whole annihilation of the auxiliary Gongyou, let's leave it to the third ambush person! ”
Zhang Qingte said: "But even if you let go of the elite of Fu Gongyou, there will be a lot of killings and captures in this battle, and if the Jianghuai Army is pacified in the future, Your Majesty will definitely talk about our merits." ”
"That's nature."
At this point, all three of them laughed together. At that moment, they ordered to open up the front, allowing the main force of the Jianghuai army of Fu Gongyou to break out, while the soldiers turned to attack the two flanks of the Jianghuai army.
On the battlefield, Fu Gongyou personally led the Chinese soldiers and horses without much effort, and killed through the encirclement of the Zhao army, and the soldiers behind him also followed Fu Gongyou to kill, but at this time the Zhao army began to close and tie up the pockets.
The county soldiers on the left and right sides of the Zhao army were re-killed. The Zhao army's soldiers were poorly equipped, and their combat effectiveness naturally could not be compared with the Zhao army's soldiers. However, among the three, Li Yiman is the best at governing the army, Jiang Shanhe is the most resourceful, and Zhang Qingte has no strengths.
The second ambush composed of these three people, although there were not many soldiers and horses, still caused great trouble to the Jianghuai army.
The two sergeants held torches, and in the night, they fought together, and the sound of swords and guns clashed.
At this time, a fire broke out on the side, and it turned out that Li Yiman's soldiers had set fire near the camp close to the Jianghuai army. The fire was majestic, and it suddenly swept through a large area of the field, forcing the Jianghuai soldiers to run around and scatter the formation when the fire hit.
As for Jiang Shanhe and Zhang Qingte, they also fought very smartly, and when they encountered a large group of troops, they let all the heavily armed Jianghuai soldiers go, and when they encountered a small group of wanderers or left a single Jianghuai soldier, they were unceremoniously rushed up to encircle and annihilate them.
The two armies fought all night, and the battle ended until dawn, when the fire was extinguished.
Although Fu Gongyou had already led the Chinese army to break out of the encirclement, Jiang Shanhe and them had gained a lot.
In the early morning, when the pursuers led by Wang Mahan and Song Jingang arrived, they saw flags, armor and weapons all over the ground, as well as hundreds of captured war horses, and thousands of Jianghuai soldiers holding their heads, just squatting and squatting, wearing leather armor and holding spears on the side, guarding these Jianghuai soldiers.
Seeing this scene, Wang Mahan couldn't help but blush, and said unwillingly: "Lao Tzu has been fighting hard for so long, and you have taken advantage of it." ”
Song Jingang said: "What is General Wang's unwillingness, this is all the military exploits of the county soldiers, if you are not convinced, who will we get the head of Fu Gongyou?" ”
Wang Mahan rolled his eyes and said, "Are you still compared with my old king?" (To be continued!)
