Chapter 117: Annihilation
"Smack!" A loud slap came from the Chinese army's tent, and the more than 400 soldiers standing outside shivered in unison.
Cen Xun covered his face, lowered his head, and stood in the big tent of the Chinese army, and in front of him, standing was his most respected general, Cen Bi. Being slapped by Cen Bi, he was dizzy and his ears were roaring, but he didn't have any resentment. This time, he really should fight! Not to mention falling into the enemy's trap, he also miscalculated the situation, and fell into the enemy's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, and in the end he didn't even see the enemy's face, but he was killed and captured fifty brothers! If it weren't for Cen Bi's previous sentence "Waste! "It still haunts his ears, he wants to draw his sword and commit suicide! However, it was Cen Bi's scolding "waste" that saved his surname. That's right, this incident is indeed his own mistake, and the general should scold himself. However, he can't just die, otherwise, in the general's heart, wouldn't he be just a waste?! How can this be?!
Cen Bi walked around in front of Cen Xun's eyes, and he seemed to be at a loss. Cen Xun did have an idea in his heart, but he knew that the general also had an idea in his heart, but he was a little hesitant. He didn't care about the pain on his face, stepped forward, and said to Cen Bi: "General, looking at the current situation, there must be a special army of Yunzhai in this mountain forest, and the leading generals are also very cunning. We want to pass through the middle of the mountains and forests every day, and I'm afraid it will be very inconvenient. It's better for us to set a fire and burn this mountain forest directly. Wouldn't that be done once and for all, no longer have to be afraid of the threat of this mountain forest, maybe you can burn some of the other party's soldiers and generals to death, wouldn't it be happy! ”
Cen Bi stood up, raised his eyes to look at him, and after a while, said, "Ah Xun, you are also very capable, but you are a little sloppy." I have the idea of burning mountains when I see this mountain forest, but unfortunately we don't have the materials to start a fire! If you want to burn the mountain, you must divide your troops to go to Baixiang City to transport fire oil. It's just that, looking at these people in Yunzhai, they are so cunning, maybe there will be their ambush outside the mountain. Alas, it's really hard to decide! ”
Cen Xun glanced at Cen Bi and said disapprerovingly: "General, you are too careful, it's just a mere cloud village, according to our intelligence, they are only 15,000 people." As for the soldiers, two thousand people is an overestimation of them. We have 3,000 men, and if they dare to divide the soldiers, will they not seek death? ”
Cen Bi thought about it, but he still felt that he couldn't be careless, but he was also a little moved. He said: "Okay, Ah Xun, this time you will lead the team, send 300 troops, and go to Baixiang City to find Xunda Township Chief to get fifty barrels of oil, this is your chance to atone for your sins." However, you have to remember that you must be careful on the road, and if you are not nosy, the first priority is to get the oil of fire. If the soldiers or other bandits who are really in the field ** to Yunzhai can be defeated, then the battle will be resolved quickly, and if the enemy is strong, then don't entangle with them, hurry to Baixiang or come back, we will discuss it again. Remember, go and go back, this battle is not without you! ”
Cen Xun's face was a little disapproving, but he didn't dare to underestimate Cen Bi's thoughts, he remembered Cen Bi's request to the death. He wanted Cen Bi and said, "General, I'll go now!" ”
"No, you don't! I'll go tomorrow, it's getting late today, get a good night's sleep. I'm afraid you won't have much to rest on this time. ”
"Thank you, General, for your concern, but I think I can go now."
"Alas, I know you're angry, but don't be emotional. As a general, the first thing to do is to be calm, if you can't stabilize your emotions, then you can only be a general, not the commander of an army. Moreover, you can't just think about yourself, your soldiers are busy all afternoon, and you don't let them have a good rest? If you travel in your current state, you won't be able to defeat even ordinary bandits. You must know that this is the opponent's mountain boundary, and even if there are no soldiers from Yunzhai, all kinds of small cottages often appear. You're just going to send equipment to these little cottages. ”
"General, I just need to charge into battle for you, why do you need to be a commander? Besides, now that we are attacking Yunzhai, it is important to be fast, and I should set off tonight, after all, one night is not short. As for the soldiers of the other small cottages, heh, it's not that I'm talking big, I'll kill as many as I want! ”
"Ah Xun, your mentality is very problematic! When did you start to be complacent?! I said let you leave tomorrow, you will leave tomorrow, this matter is not negotiable! ”
"Yes, General." Seeing that Cen Bi had made up his mind, Cen Xun didn't say anything more, but retreated silently.
The next day, Cen Xun set off to Baixiang with 300 elite soldiers. These people are all soldiers who searched in the mountains and forests yesterday afternoon, and they can be regarded as meritorious deeds. Complete this mission, naturally there is nothing to do, and there is even a reward, and if there is an accident in this mission, then the twenty military sticks are inevitable. However, they didn't know that on their way to Baixiang, the ambush arranged by Wang Yun was also waiting for them!
Buxue looked at the information he got from Huang Hong, and said to Jiao Yu: "Captain Jiao, the lord really expected things like a god, and sure enough, a soldier came out of the enemy. However, the number of soldiers was somewhat smaller, only three hundred. You see? ”
Jiao Yu also looked at the message and looked up at Buxue: "What do you think of the military advisor?" ”
Bu Xue nodded secretly in his heart, this Jiao Yu is not in a hurry, and he is indeed the material for being a commander. He said: "Captain Jiao, my opponent is only 300 people, although they are all elites, we are also elites. With 700 against 300, it is better to divide the troops and attack, trying to annihilate the opponent. Otherwise, if we are escaped by our opponents, then our whereabouts are likely to be detected. And if you divide the troops and attack, then you and Captain Huang will have no one to bring three hundred soldiers, and there is no need to ambush, as long as we can detect the opponent's movements, you are in front, Captain Huang is behind, the two sides are flanked, and you are not afraid that the opponent will not be defeated! And I, the scribe, am responsible for providing you with information. ”
Jiao Yu thought for a while and asked Bu Xuedao: "Strategist, does it just need to be so simple?" Doesn't there need to be a plan? ”
Bu Xuedao: "There is no need to plan, the so-called advice, either you are weak and the enemy is strong, or in order to reduce losses, you must always have a purpose." And our advantage now is obvious, we can win a battle, there is no need to make any more plans, and we have fallen behind in order to plot and rebel. Bu Xue's ability to say these words is enough to see that he really has the qualifications to be a strategist, however, he is just a scribe with a special surname, which is really a sigh.
Hearing Buxue say this, Jiao Yu didn't say anything more, and said: "Okay, since the military advisor has this kind of idea, then, let's wait for Captain Huang to come over, and exchange opinions with him, and you will do the reconnaissance instead of him." ”
Cen Xun walked on the road with three hundred elite sword soldiers, and they marched at maximum speed all the way, marching fifty kilometers a day. They didn't go fast, so although the speed could be doubled, it would consume a lot of physical energy on the soldiers, and it would be difficult to fight back in special situations. Although Cen Xun said that he didn't care about ordinary bandits, he was actually still wary.
On the afternoon of the second day after Cen Xun left the camp, Cen Xun let his soldiers rest a little. They had been traveling for nearly two days, and in another day, they would be able to reach Baixiang properly, so Cen Xun and the others were also relatively relaxed. What they are most worried about is the first day, after all, they are still in the range of the opponent's mountain on the first day, and the opponent's mountain is recognized as the territory of the bandits, and their only three hundred soldiers may really be hacked in the opponent's mountain. And now, nothing happened for more than a day, and now it's a sunny afternoon, so they are not very guarded. However, at this time, a group of soldiers rushed out of the official road in front of them!
The pair of soldiers did not approach this group of soldiers, but lined up not far away, with a row of sword and shield men in front, a row of pikemen behind, and finally a row of archers! The military generals on the opposite side shouted, and suddenly hundreds of arrows flew towards him from the other side!
All of a sudden, some of the soldiers suddenly screamed loudly. Cen Xun looked around, there were not many dead people, only a dozen, however, there were many people who were injured, no less than thirty people! It seems that the opponent's archers are at least at the rank of male soldiers! Cen Xun's eyes widened angrily, hundreds of miles of peaceful journey, but he didn't expect to be ambushed halfway through! He shouted loudly as his soldiers lined up, and it wasn't long before the soldiers formed a circle, raised their wooden shields, and formed a circle to protect their wounded brother in the middle. After forming a circle, the casualties of the county soldiers were greatly reduced, after all, they were all elite sword and shield men, and there was still some way to fight the archers. However, after the opponent saw this, he no longer released arrows, but just watched there, as if intercepting Cen Xun was their purpose!
"Let's all cheer up, the injured ones hurry up and pick them up, and we'll rush over! Look at this, they should still have reinforcements, if we can't get through quickly, I'm afraid we'll all die here! Brothers, whether you live or die depends on a fight! Turn into a sharp arrow formation, rush with me! Brothers who can live, remember to report to the general that this attack was done by Yunzhai in the future! Thinking of Cen Bi's instructions and guesses, Cen Xun only felt chills all over his body. Such elite soldiers are obviously not something that ordinary small cottages can have, and only Yunzhai can gather so many elites in this vicinity! And that's not all! When they changed formations, another group of soldiers had already rushed out behind them!
The soldiers in the back are all made up of spearmen! They formed a phalanx and rushed at high speed! The first general, armed with a spear and covered in black robes, gave the enemy an eerie feeling!
After seeing this group of soldiers and their speed, Cen Xun's eyes turned black for a while, he knew that he was finished! However, death can't make the other party feel better!
"A hundred of you run apart! Run if you can! Be sure to pass the message to the generals, our message is most likely wrong! How can Yunzhai have so many elites! ”
Cen Xun arranged for a hundred people to disperse and flee to report the news, while he himself took the remaining more than a hundred people to try to block Jiao Yu and the others. However, it was all in vain! Because on the periphery of the battle group, there are not only a hundred sword and shield men led by Bu Xue, but also more than a dozen cavalry!
All of these 300 soldiers were quickly killed! Even Cen Xun did not escape the fate of death, under the siege of Jiao Yu and Huang Hong, two second-order generals and many soldiers, he was finally pierced through the heart by Jiao Yu!
