Chapter Twenty-Eight: Yuwentai's Choice
At present, the situation of the war is not optimistic.
Gao Huan's army arrived at Puban and was erecting a pontoon bridge over the Yellow River, seemingly intending to cross the river.
Gao Huan ordered the metropolitan governor Dou Tai to attack Tongguan.
Gao Huan ordered Situ Gao Aocao to lead a team of men and horses to Shangluo, but lost a trace near Guangyang.
The last piece of news made Yu Wentai frown.
This Gao Huan is really an old fox. set up a set for him, and there was still a set in the set, for fear that he would not fall in.
Gao Aocao was about to attack Shangluo, but disappeared near Guangyang...... Yu Wentai's fingers tapped repeatedly on the bookcase, figuring out the purpose of Gao Huan's move.
At this time, He Louqi and Monalo strode in. Monalo said solemnly: "Prime Minister, I received a secret report that Gao Aocao's team may have entered the mountain. ”
"That's true." Yu Wentai frowned slightly, this was the worst he expected.
He frowned and pondered for a moment, and suddenly said with some worry: "Ah Ran is still on the mountain tonight." ”
He Louqi nodded: "Yes, they didn't go down the mountain." Do you want to save them? ”
Yu Wentai sighed, held his forehead and said, "How to save it?" At this time, Gao Aocao had already entered the mountain, and once I sent someone over, I would immediately alarm Gao Huan. As soon as his deployment changed, it became more difficult for us to deal with it. ”
"Then Ran, she ......" He Louqi hesitated. If they happen to run into Gao Aocao's troops, Gao Aocao will definitely kill them in order not to leak the news.
Yu Wentai closed his eyes and was silent, and there were two villains fighting in his heart, and his nose was blue and his face was swollen and dusty. That dog thing, how did he make him worry...... At the beginning, it was just to tease her, but now, it seems to have become a cocoon.
He opened his eyes suddenly, and said in a cold voice: "Gao Huan arranged it like this to make Gu think that he and Dou Tai were going to fight Gu back and forth. When Lone was ready to attack his way, Gao Aocao would suddenly appear outside Guangyang City all the way, cutting off Lone's back road, and they would attack in three ways. ”
"So how do we deal with it?" Monalo asked. To deal with three forces at the same time, with the current strength is obviously stretched.
A sneer appeared at the corner of Yuwentai's mouth: "Isn't Gao Huan building a pontoon bridge on the Yellow River to prepare to cross the river?" The art of war is cloudy, and the soldiers can be attacked......" His fingers unconsciously tapped a few times on the table.
He Louqi asked: "So we go ahead and fight Gao Huan first?" ”
The corners of Yu Wentai's mouth twitched, and he sneered and said, "Gao Huan must have thought that I would think so." ——”
His eyes revealed a resolute and determined look: "So we announced to the outside world that we would retreat to Longyou, return to Chang'an, and then sneak out secretly and take Dou Tai directly." Destroy Dou Tai, Gao Huan's spirit will be frustrated, let's go back and fight Gao Huan! ”
He Louqi and Monalo's eyes lit up when they heard this. They all feel that with their current disparity with Gao Huan's strength, it is indeed easy to fall into a three-sided attack if they fight Gao Huan first, and Yuwentai's strategy, although he is willing to seek the near and far, is more than a surprise. Not only can he cut off Gao Huan's right-hand man, but he also broke the three-sided encirclement and opened up a way to retreat, which is really a great chance of winning.
"Yes...... Gao Aocao ...... all the way"
Yu Wentai thought for a moment and said, "Monaro, you take five hundred people to ambush around the city. I will lead all the generals to take Dou Tai, and Guangyang will become an empty city. When Dou Tai descends the mountain and enters the city, you take your people outside the city and set fire to the city. ”
"Yes!" Monalo commanded.
Yu Wentai said again: "He Louqi, you take a hundred people, and when Guangyang catches fire, you will go into the mountains to find her." ”
"Yes!" He Louqi also received the order.
It's just that Yuwentai understands in his heart that these mountains are continuous, not to mention only a hundred people, that is, tens of thousands of people enter the mountains, and the vast mountains and forests are looking for a person, it is really like looking for a needle in a haystack.
At the moment, however, there is no other way. Everything depends on her life.
Yu Wentai stood up and said in a calm voice: "Order the generals, immediately gather the soldiers and horses, and return to Chang'an!" ”
This night, the mountain people refused to disperse for a long time. Ran Ying drank a lot of wine, and was a little drunk, so she went to the side hillside alone to blow the wind and sober up.
It's cooler in the mountains than under the mountains. A few gusts of cool wind blew, and Ran Ying's wine also woke up a little. She looked up and saw that the moon in the mountains was exceptionally bright, and it was already the last quarter moon on this day, and it looked bright and bright.
I can't help but think, if the jade seal is not in this mountain, where will I find it later? Is it really necessary to turn over all the mountains except Wuyue Kunlun as Li Yu said?
I don't know what Yuwentai was planning to lend the heron to her.
was thinking wildly, when he suddenly saw a bright light in the mountains and forests in the distance. If you look closely, it is a string of torches. She thought it was strange. Ajiao immediately said, they are the only village in the whole mountain, so where did these torches come from?
Suddenly, someone tapped her on the shoulder, startling her. Looking back, it was Ajiao.
Ajiao also drank a little loudly: "Lang Gongzi, we are so fateful, you live longer...... Stay a few more days before leaving. ”
Ran Ying didn't reply to him, but stretched out her hand and pointed to the torch in the distance: "Look." ”
Ah Jiao glanced at it, and suddenly sobered up a lot. Rubbing his eyes and looking again, he said, "Is it a bandit?" No, I'll have to go back and let you know! ”
"Wait!" Ran Ying grabbed him, pointed to the string of torches and said, "Look at it, there are less than 500 people there, how can there be so many bandits?" ”
"And what are those?"
Ran Ying remembered that yesterday outside Guangyang City, Li Yu said that he was afraid that if there was no war recently, the city gate was so closely checked. Could these people be the military?
Yuwentai's? Or is it Gao Huan's?
Ran Ying paced back and forth on the hillside, thinking carefully.
Yuwentai's army is in Guangyang City, and there is no need to divide troops and run to this mountain.
Then it can only be Gao Huan's troops. Could it be that they wanted to take Guangyang by surprise and attack Guangyang from the mountains?
Where is Yuwentai at the moment? Is he aware of this news?
Ah Jiao asked anxiously, "Ah Lang, that string of torches is coming here." What are we going to do? ”
Ran Ying lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment and asked, "How many people in the village can shoot arrows?" ”
Hearing him ask, Ajiao grinned: "We are all craftsmen, and we can also make bamboo bows, and the children in every family have played with bamboo bows since they were young. The hard work of that kind of red sandalwood can't be opened, but the bamboo bow is no problem, and every family has a bow and bamboo arrows. ”
"That's good." Ran Ying had an idea, "You hurry up and inform everyone, put out the bonfire, move the women, children and the elderly to the bamboo forest behind to hide, and the rest of the people, as long as they can shoot arrows, take their bows, take out all the wine in the house, and go to the open space just now!" ”
Ajiao nodded and hurried to Zhang Luo.
Ran Ying looked at the string of torches in the distance, and was complacent: Yuwentai, I helped you tonight, don't let me repay you for saving your life in the future!
Gao Aocao walked for most of the night with a lightly armed army of 500 people, all of whom were sleepy and tired, who knew that there were not even birds and beasts in this mountain, not even a sparrow.
Except for the bamboo forests, there are really no hairs.
I was annoyed, waiting for a rider to report ahead, and found a village not far ahead.
Gao Aocao was overjoyed. Where there is a village, there is food, and there is a house with a bed for a good rest. As for the people in the village, just kill them all, so as not to leak the news!
He waved his hand and said loudly: "There is a village ahead, there is food, beds and women, go at full speed!" ”
Half an hour later they reached the col.
