Recently, I have written a lot of conspiracies, so let's write in a plain and simple way, so that I can make it easy and relaxed. O(∩_∩)O。

——

The inspection department is about 300 miles away from Gaizhou, passing through Kaizhou Station and other places in the middle, there are ready-made stations connected to each other, the road is smooth, there are no big mountains and hills, and there are no big rivers and lakes.

Chen Hu found more than a dozen guides, divided into various armies, and each led the way in front of the army. It was impossible for more than 30,000 people to march together, such as Zhao Guobu, who had already left the city, so according to the predetermined plan, all parts of the army took action, set an appointment period, and five days later, they would meet in the south of Gaizhou.

The overall situation on the battlefield is as follows:

There are more than 20,000 Gao slaves in the city, thousands of widows in the south of the city, and Mao Jujing is in the north of Gaizhou; The rebels of Zuo Li and other troops were even more entrenched behind Mao Jujing, dozens of miles away from Gaizhou, a place called the Haizhou Inspection Division, which was located between Gaizhou and Liaoyang, and stifled the north-south communication arteries.

……

A few days later, the armies arrived at their designated locations. In military law, the punishment for failure is very severe, and it is easy to cut off the head, because it will directly affect the subsequent development of the war. Fortunately, with the news from various armies, Deng She was relieved and there was no sign of missing the deadline. This is due to three things, one is not far; Second, the terrain of Liaozuo is convenient and easy to walk; The three guides selected by Chen Hu are effective.

Deng Shezhong's army, the camp has not yet been stabilized, and Mao Jujing's messenger has arrived.

Deng She passed him in, looked at him, and saw that he was dusty, his armor was full of blood, and he was intercepted by a Yuan army ranger about halfway through.

"The road is not smooth?"

"Although Gao Jianu retreated in the city, within ten miles outside the city, he sent many rangers and stragglers to cut off the passage of our army."

"How's the battle going?"

"For several days, there have been constant daily confrontations, and when he heard that the general had arrived, Mao Shuai was overjoyed. Send a villain to come and listen to the general's plan and arrangement, so that our army can cooperate. ”

This messenger can speak well, and a few words gave Deng She a high hat, which means that Mao Jujing is willing to obey Deng She's dispatch as a deputy. Deng She smiled and said, "What Mao Shuai said, he killed the general." …… Your Excellency, please take a look. ”

He unfolded the map, pointed to the vicinity of Gaizhou, and said: "Our army has more than 30,000 people, and it is stationed in three places. The left flank, for General Chen Hu and Chen, refers to approaching and defeating the Japanese people; The Chinese army is here; The right flank is the headquarters of General Zhao Guozhao, and there are thousands of Xu people and Li Jing's troops. The Chinese army plus the right flank, totaling more than 20,000 people, is the main force of our army, and the goal is to watch Gaizhou.

"Your envoy should have seen that all the subordinates of our army are doing everything according to the instructions of Mao Shuai in his previous letter. Now that the subordinates have been decided, just wait for Mao Shuai to be ready, and the left flank of our army can launch an offensive against the Japanese people; At the same time, the Chinese army and the right flank are moving forward, please rest assured that our army will keep an eye on Gaizhou at all costs to ensure the success of Mao Shuai's breakthrough. ”

After the introduction in a few words, Deng She asked: "I don't know such an arrangement, Mao Shuai is not satisfied?" ”

The messenger is very satisfied, and if he is satisfied, it means that Mao Jujing is satisfied. Because before he came, Mao Jujing obviously had an explanation. He said: "Our department can break through at any time, and there is no need to give time to prepare." May I ask the general, when is your ministry going to start? ”

Trapped in the city for more than ten days, the food and grass in the camp will be exhausted, and Mao Jujing can't wait. Just before Deng She's arrival, many of his subordinates began to take the initiative to ask for help, asking for a ruin. Instead of sitting under the dead city, it is better to fight it once.

Mao Jujing was undecided, not daring to take such a big risk; When Deng She came, it was like a life-saving straw. For the sake of the general's hesitation, he was afraid of wolves and tigers to such an extent, no wonder he fought Daning earlier and would be defeated by Zhang Jujing and Shijiabao.

Deng She pondered for a moment and said, "Chen Hubu has just arrived, and the army has been marching for a long time, so he has to be given a day to rest, and the day after tomorrow the war will begin,...... What do you think? ”

The messenger had no opinion, and the two of them discussed it in detail, and set the specific time of each action step by step, accurate to the hour. The two armies are far apart, and there are Yuan army rangers in the middle, once the war starts, the messenger and the military newspaper will definitely not be able to come and go freely, "make an appointment to fight", this is the meaning.

The date is set, and the business is over.

Mao Jujing, as Guan Duo's descendant and right-hand man, must have a very close connection with Liaoyang, and there may be military information that Deng She does not know. No matter how tight Gaizhou is, it is nothing more than a marginal war, and the core is still in Liaoyang. Deng She asked, "What is the situation in Liaoyang now?" ”

He didn't ask the messenger if he knew it, but what happened. Those who can negotiate with themselves on behalf of Mao Jujing will have a very high status in Mao Jujing's army on weekdays, and they will not be unaware of important military matters.

Sure enough, the messenger was in a good mood and did not hide it, and said, "So that the general can know that the situation in Liaoyang is really not optimistic." Just the day before yesterday, Naha concentrated artillery and attacked a corner of the city, but he collapsed the corner of the city wall, and if it wasn't for Lord Pingzhang to personally supervise the battle, the city would have almost been broken. ”

In siege warfare, concentrating artillery and trebuchets to attack a corner of the city is a tactic that has been used since the advent of artillery. Deng She also used this trick when he fought the Twin Cities.

He frowned, it was too far away from Liaoyang, and it was inconvenient for the sentinels to come and go, and every time he learned the news, it was often a few days later, and this information was really unknown before. The city is broken, and it is very dangerous. He asked, "What about the direction of Liaoxi and Quang Ninh?" Liu and Pan are Pingzhang, are there any reinforcements? ”

The messenger was worried and said, "The Tartars of Liaoxi counterattacked, and Liu Pingzhang couldn't pull out. It is said that one of them has already attacked Shangdu, and our army has only more than 10,000 men and horses left behind in Shangdu, and the future is worrying; Pan Pingzhang of Guangning did not dare to make a rash move, and only two days ago, he sent a support army of six or seven thousand people to stop thirty miles west of Liaoyang City. ”

Deng She understood Pan Cheng's feelings, and the 100,000 army stopped at the door of his house, and he didn't dare to act rashly. is a little sloppy, it is not as simple as losing Guangning, but it will be affected together with Liaoxi and Liaoyang. For the red scarf, Guangning, Liaoxi, and Liaoyang are like a tripod, and it is not possible to do without any of them. Perhaps, this is also one of the reasons why Guan Duo did not force Pan Cheng to rescue too much.

"In this way, Liaoyang's savior is only on Mao Shuai." Deng She paced and asked, "What is the morale of the army?" ”

"Morale is high. The cunning of the Tartars, the shamelessness of the rebels, make my three armies angry; Everyone longs to eat its flesh and sleep on its skin. The messenger was impassioned, and naturally he would not speak ill of his own army, and he said, "As long as the general defeats the Japanese people, watch Gaizhou; Within one day, our army will be able to break through the Haizhou Inspection Division, kill Zuo and Li, and use their heads to pay tribute to the soldiers who died in battle. ”

"Yes, very good."

Deng She clapped his hands and said, "Wine, see off the strong man." ”

Bi Qianniu took a jar of wine and poured a bowl for the messenger and dozens of his subordinates. The scorching sun was scorching overhead, and among the flags and soldiers, everyone drank it all. The messenger threw his bowl and left, turned over his horse, and the group stepped on the rolling yellow dust and went away.

Deng She watched for a long time, and Bi Qianniu said: "General, what do you want?" ”

"He didn't ask us to join the army to rescue Liaoyang."

"Isn't it good?"

Of course it's good, it shows that Mao Ju is interested in respect. But Deng She felt a faint indifference and polite estrangement from it. Of course, he and Liaoyang Red Scarf have never had a time when they are in harmony with each other, but they have never been similar to now, and they are not like their own people at all. In any case, they are also in the same vein.

Dunsher muttered, repeating a word the messenger had said, "Your part." …… Your Ministry. ”

He took two steps and thought about it, maybe what the messenger said was right, it was only because he had the idea of sitting on the mountain to watch the tiger fight and the fisherman to profit, so he was a thief with a weak heart, and he felt that the other party was alienated from himself?

"It's already very rusty." He laughed at himself, but his skin was not thick enough, and his heart was not black enough. Thinking about it, "Three Kingdoms" has to be read several times, and learn from Cao Cao and Liu Bei.

The military flag fluttered, and the soldiers were like ants.

issued an order to Chen Hu to attack the day after tomorrow, and Deng She walked out of the tent and looked into the distance. The blue sky is thousands of miles, the white clouds are like cotton, and on the empty plain, you can see a little city wall of Gaizhou in the distance, which is black, and the sesame grains are also like. He turned his head to look north, and compared it with the map and what the messenger said, he roughly judged the location of Mao Jujing's troops, but they were too far away to see anything.

He Guangxiu panted and ran over, tilted his head at the bottom, and said loudly: "General, the messenger is coming, the right wing of General Zhao's headquarters, when it encounters the harassment of a small group of Tartars, ignore it, it comes; Straighten it out, it goes. General Zhao asks for instructions, to chase or not to chase? ”

A little thing, not enough to make a fuss, the Yuan army does not come to harass it is called strange. Judging its intentions is nothing more than watching the truth and the false; Coming and going, repeatedly provoking, is obviously to see the ability of the generals to lead the army.

"It's just a matter of watching the generals." Deng She didn't care, and said, "Summoning General Zhao, a little Tartar, don't pay attention to it; He was told to step up the construction of the camp, pay attention to recuperating the army, and wait for General Chen to make a move the day after tomorrow. ”

"General Chen's headquarters is less than 10,000 people, and there are thousands of generals and Japanese people, and they set up camp early, and the camp is stable. Do you want our Chinese army to support you? ”

Deng She took a look and said: "The Japanese robbers don't know how to do the army, it takes gold and Fuzhou, it is purely a trick, and it has encountered a good opportunity, how can it have experienced a big field battle?" Don't say a thousand, plus a thousand, it's hard for me to be a tiger opponent. General Chen's one is enough. ”

Deng She's judgment was basically not wrong, and this time it backfired.

The combat effectiveness of the Japanese people is really strong, which is unexpected, they are indeed not good at marching and arranging formations, but a single individual is not afraid of death. Chen Hu attacked several times in half a day, but none of them succeeded; Although there are many enemies killed, there is a way to kill 1,000 enemies and lose 800 self-losses, and in the face of crazy opponents, the army and horses of the two cities also suffered a lot of self-losses.

"Dog's day, there is a meaning of a sentence, Lao Tzu only understood it today." Chen Hu's delay alarmed Deng She, and he took his generals to watch the battle in person, Yang Wanhu looked at the battlefield with a killing sound, and said.

"Which word?"

"The dog jumps over the wall in a hurry, and the rabbit bites when he is in a hurry."

Ha Guangxiu was dumbfounded, and what he said was too apt.

The camp of the Japanese was entrenched in front of a hill, separated from the camp of the Red Turbans for miles in the wilderness, in which fierce battles began. Flags on both sides cover the air, drums thunder, and arrows and stones rain. The Japanese did not have a uniform military uniform, and wore a variety of clothes, babbling and shouting, holding long knives and spears, like a tide, one after another.

He Guangxiu rubbed his eyes: "Are we attacking him, or are they attacking me?" ”

After losing Jin and Fuzhou, there is no way back, and the Japanese people are no better than the Red Turban and the Yuan Army, they are foreigners, they are in the land of a foreign country, there is no aid outside, there is no response inside, there are only thousands of people, the language is not understood, even if they were originally wolves, they have become lambs thrown into the tiger flock at this time, and their fear and horror can be imagined.

People are dying, either weak or crazy.

Deng She sighed: "Struggling so desperately, do they think there will be reinforcements?" Gao Jianu is not stupid, how can he not know the truth of besieging the city and sending reinforcements? As for Naha, it is just a pure use of them, for fear that they will be thrown away as an outcast at this time. ”

He ordered: "Stand up the free kill card." ”

In the army in front of the battle, with Deng She's order, more than a dozen flagpoles were erected, and white flags several zhang long were hung, and the big black letters on them read: "Those who descend will not be killed." The Japanese may not be able to speak Chinese, but if they are somewhat literate, they must know Chinese characters. Deng She also chose some military men with loud voices, but unfortunately there were no people who knew Japanese language, so he shouted in Chinese to persuade them to surrender.

Blood gushed and dead bodies littered the field.

The Japanese did not have the slightest sign of stopping because of the hanging of the no-kill card, Deng She frowned and watched, and the red scarf on the left side used a fire attack, but was thwarted by the Japanese people. Large piles of firewood and grass were still burning a mile away from the Japanese camp. Black smoke and burnt grass powder floated in the wind, and soon spread all over the battlefield, the smoke covered the sky, Yang Wanhu covered his nose and coughed twice.

And the Japanese people are still like mad tigers, in the thick smoke, the sound of screams and fighting resounded, and under the white knife, a touch of blood was amazing; The dark iron bones could not be seen clearly, and when they flicked, they brought out a cloud of white brains; Long spears, thick axes, muffled collisions, make people's hearts throb.

In the middle of the battlefield, where the smoke is thickest. A black-robed widow was unstoppable, with flesh and blood flying everywhere and stumps everywhere he passed. Deng She squinted, tried his best to follow his figure, looked at him for a while, and saw that he would kill people when he encountered them, as if he did not distinguish between friend and foe.

"The widow has killed the red eye, general, do you want to retreat first?"

Deng She didn't answer, and Chen Hu was furious. Since he became a horse thief, he has never lost people like this, in front of everyone, all the generals of the three armies are there, how can he not even be able to contain thousands of widows? He flatly refused: "Withdraw from the army? No way! Although the Japanese are strong, they are only desperate for death. As long as our army gives him another heavy blow,......" he said to Deng She, "the last general promises that the Japanese will be defeated." ”

The sun is gradually moving west, and at the appointed time, early tomorrow morning, Mao Jujing will begin to break through. In other words, the Japanese in front of you must be done before nightfall.

Deng She didn't mind Chen Hu's overstepping, he agreed with Chen Hu's opinion, looked left and right, and said, "Who wants to go and charge for a while?" ”

Yang Wanhu was the first to jump out, Deng She shook his head, and did not choose him. The foot soldiers brought by Yang Wanhu were of little use, and pointed to a thousand cavalry households: "Give you 500 people, from left to right, and rush him for a dog day." ”

The cavalry was stationed on a high ground on the left side of the formation, and 500 men moved at the command. Rush down the hillside and into the battlefield where the corpses rest. The Japanese people were caught off guard, and in an instant, they rushed into the smoke and out of the smoke. Then he turned his head back again, divided into two branches, and circled obliquely, like two streams of iron, and made one place, and hit the battle formation for the third time.

When they rushed into the smoke, they could only hear the roar of the horse's hooves, and faintly see the shining armor on its upper body; By the time they rushed out of the smoke, everyone's knives and spears were dripping with blood, and their hands and feet were so fast that their heads were hanging from the saddle.

The Japanese had no cavalry and quickly became disorganized. The generals who led the troops tried their best to retract, but they were helpless to the repeated attacks of the cavalry. Chen Hu took the opportunity to wave his troops to counterattack, but the Japanese finally couldn't resist it, and after half an hour, they left hundreds of corpses and retreated to the camp in front of the mountain.

"I don't know the battle formation like this, if he shrinks into the camp and doesn't come out, how can I have a chance for my cavalry to exert its might?" Ha Guangxiu commented in a similar way.

"He's in the camp, how should I deal with it?"

"First with artillery and bows; Then use the elite to rush the camp. ”

Deng She smiled: "Just according to what He Wanhu said." "Although the Japanese are fierce, there are only a few thousand people, and they are only sick with ringworm; Therefore, although the red scarf was temporarily frustrated, Deng She was not very worried. Now that they have broken their sharpness, it is to be expected that victory is in sight.

This time, he misjudged again.

The artillery firing for two quarters of an hour, the bows and arrows covered almost half of the camp of the Japanese people, and the forward attacked twice, but not once did they get close to the Japanese people's gate. The Japanese are completely exchanging their lives for their lives, like cockroaches that can't be killed, regardless of tactics and skills, they die one and top one. But not all the Japanese were not afraid of death, Deng She saw with his own eyes that two or three Japanese who had fled were mercilessly cut off by the officers who supervised the formation.

Encountering such an enemy, Ha Guangxiu was very devastated: "Unreasonable. Deng She was helpless: "The spirit is commendable." Chen Hu was embarrassed and angry, threw off his cloak, and carried a spear, he wanted to go into battle in person.

How could she let him go on an adventure, dragged him back, and looked up at the sky, which was nearly twilight. He made a decision: "Order: The whole army retreats, surrounds but does not fight." Let them go for the time being, and you can't delay the action of cooperating with Mao Shuai. ”

Chen Hu was unwilling and had nothing to do. Xu Ren, who had been on the side and did not speak,—— he was ordered by Zhao Guo to go to the Chinese army to report on the military, and it happened that Deng She was going to come to Chen Hu's army, so he came with him.

He suddenly said: "There will be a way in the end, maybe you can break the camp." ”

"Oh?"

"Authentic."
