Chapter 163: Ambush

The border, the town outside the Wang Division, stretches endlessly, in front of the army, is a mountain range of rocks, a dirt road, such as the Yellow River of Jiuqu, shuttling among them.

At both ends of the road, there are two cities, one is Wangguan City, and the other is Yongyou City, both of which are important border towns and undertake important duties to protect the country.

And Jin Shuiming went to the right city, rode the dust, splashed the wind and sand, and kept advancing.

The view, backwards in the eyes!

The sound of the wind is blowing in my ears!

In the distance, the city was full of flags, fluttering in the cold wind, and there were martial law soldiers everywhere, and there was a tense and solemn atmosphere.

At the gate of the city, a large group of generals gathered, looking ahead, waiting eagerly, until Jin Shuiming appeared, a smile appeared on his face, and after he approached, a general said:

"Participate in the general, the last general has prepared a banquet and washed the dust!"

Such a scene, Jin Shuiming, who is in a high position, naturally often experienced, this is the sophistication of human feelings, getting along with people, is a thoughtful, not only considerate of himself, but also considerate of others.

In normal times, Jin Shuiming would also be willing to participate, win over some generals, come to his camp, increase his strength, and satisfy his vanity;

But now, when the war comes, life and death are difficult to say, the country is trampled on, life is withering, and it is definitely impossible to participate in the banquet again, and immediately said:

"Colleagues, war is a furnace and purgatory, this war does not need to be exchanged for cups, there is no need for flattery, with this thought, it is better to think more about the national disaster, share worries for the monarch, and become a hero!"

The impassioned and generous words and the distinctive declaration made the generals who came to welcome stunned, but they quickly reacted and said in an admiring tone:

"The general is righteous, and the last general admires!"

Jin Shuiming nodded, took the generals, and went to the city lord's mansion to plan a plan and arrange a war.

On both sides of the main hall, more than a dozen generals are sitting in danger, and the deputy general in the army is reporting the situation:

"General, according to the scout's report, there were 30,000 defenders in Wangguan City, and 200,000 supporting troops, a total of 230,000 people!"

Jin Shuiming raised his eyebrows and asked:

"Can we find out the specific strength, and what is the situation of our army?"

The adjutant general's face showed a bitter color, and he said in a deep voice:

"General Hui, the 200,000 troops are all elite divisions of the Tang Dynasty, nearly half of them are warriors, there are several martial kings, and they are the Tang kings' personal expeditions, and their morale is high. ”

"And our side, although there are 500,000 troops, there are less than 10,000 warriors, a dozen martial spirits, and the morale is low, and the battle is head-on, and it is not an opponent at all. ”

"Shhh

Jin Shuiming was taken aback, he didn't expect the difference in strength, such a huge disparity, it can be said that he hit the egg with a stone, and his face became ugly.

"General, the last general suggested that the city should be defended and the city should be used to resist the enemy's attack. Looking at Jin Shuiming's face, the adjutant general said again.

In the face of a strong enemy, it is generally defensive, but Jin Shuiming is different, I saw him silent for a while, and immediately said:

"No, the enemy has a strong warrior king, if you want to destroy the city wall and break through the city gate, it is easy, rather than being beaten passively, it is better to take the initiative to go out. ”

The general's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked, "What is the general's good plan?"

In anticipation of them, Jin Shuiming stood up and ordered loudly:

"The general's order was passed on, and the army was divided into two routes, each with 250,000 troops, led by the deputy general, one army, hidden in the mountains to be used as an ambush, and the other army, led by me, confronted the Tang army head-on. ”

"The army of the hidden mountain range, with 100,000 archers and 150,000 foot soldiers, when fighting, the foot soldiers rush down, and 10,000 arrows shoot at it!

Most of the generals nodded, and then said loudly:

"No!"

In the middle of the night, the gate of the city was opened, and the sound of neat running sounded, and by the night, 250,000 troops, led by the deputy general, headed for the mountains.

Millions of arrows, loaded into quivers, wait for tomorrow, shoot the enemy.

The mountains are huge, and the 250,000 troops are just a drop in the ocean, and they are piled up with fallen leaves, up to a foot thick, forming a natural hide!

Ye dui's body, disappeared into the mountains and forests, there was no trace of it, and it was impossible to see that hundreds of thousands of troops were hidden here.

"Ten people are in a team, and one person is exposed, and all nine clans will be punished!"

Because of the severe punishment, 250,000 people, lying on the ground, did not dare to make obvious movements, and actually evaded the scouts of the Tang Army.

In the early morning, a thin mist drifted through the bare woods, as if the veil hung on the branches, but it was more self-conscious and transparent than the veil.

Looking at the city, the war drums roared, the armor roared, the swords flew, and countless soldiers were gathering.

"Drive!"

Under the expectation of the army, the sound of horses' hooves came from inside the city gate, Li Tang was dressed in gold armor, walked to the front of the army, looked at the army, pulled out the imperial sword, and ordered to advance.

The royal drive is in person, and the morale of the whole army is skyrocketing!

The 200,000 troops behind immediately followed, advancing along the dirt road.

After the army entered the mountain range, Li Tang stopped advancing, looking at the mountains on both sides, doubts flashed in his eyes, and he always felt that something was wrong.

"Your Majesty, there are many leaves in the mountains and forests, and my subordinates are worried that there are enemy troops in ambush!" Qin Qiong walked over and said in a low voice.

After Li Tang heard this, he also agreed and said: "There are mountains on both sides, a dirt road, leading directly to the Purple Lion Country, which is very suitable for ambush warfare, I think the Purple Lion Country will not let go of this opportunity." ”

Hearing that there was an ambush in the mountain, Qin Qiong's face did not change, and said calmly:

"A swarm of ants, even if they are ambushed, will not be a big problem; ”

Li Tang nodded and said, "Okay, this king appointed you as the vanguard and led 50,000 troops to test whether there was an ambush in the mountain range." ”

Although there is no fear of ambushes, you need to be careful in order to minimize casualties and ensure that nothing goes wrong.

"Qiong Ming's first five armies, go!"

Qin Qiong let out a loud shout, and with an army of 50,000, he took the first step and entered the depths of the mountain range.

It's normal, it's very usual!

The sharp-eyed soldiers also found that the rabbits running in the forest did not seem to be ambushed, but Qin Qiong did not dare to be careless, and was still extremely vigilant.

"Report!"

At this time, the scouts of Qiong Ming's army ran back and said loudly: "General, one mile away from here, I found the enemy army, which is endless, and it is estimated that it is the main force of the enemy army. ”

Qin Qiong led the horse rope, watched the mountain range protrude out and form a bend, and ordered solemnly:

"Prepare for battle!"

Then he continued to advance, and when he walked around the corner, he found that the enemy had stopped marching, and when he saw them, he immediately drew his weapon, drew his bow and arrows, and formed a shield wall.

The surrounding mountains were steep, Qin Qiong and Jin Shuiming looked at each other, and they both showed a hint of a sly smile, but they were sighing in their hearts.

Qin Qiong sighed, they fell into an enemy ambush!

Jin Shuiming sighed, it was only the enemy vanguard who entered the ambush circle!
