Chapter 174: There is no one
The matter is very simple, Princess Zhuge Jian Yunfei and the others can't figure it out, and the sergeants of the Shaking Mountain Camp can't figure it out either. The sergeant of the Shaking Mountain Battalion won't think too much, anyway, just follow Xiong Jun and finish it.
The only person who knows about this matter is the only one inside, and that is Gonggong Fu!
At this moment, Gonggong Fu was in Li Yunyi's room, and he handed a beautiful jade carved teapot to Li Yunyi from his arms, and he didn't say anything, didn't ask anything.
More than 10,000 troops were hidden in the valley and were not detected, because of this teapot.
How exactly this teapot was done, Father-in-law Fu didn't know, he just followed Li Yunyi's instructions, and after they left, the word "Hao" on the teapot was aimed at the mouth of the teapot, and then a thick white mist filled the entire valley.
There is often white fog in the vulture mountain, and the white fog in the valley is particularly thick. The rest of the Fu Gonggong didn't notice anything abnormal, he didn't do anything, he just waited, and it was amazing that none of the scouts from Dongqi entered the valley.
The rest of the matter is simple, early this morning, Gonggong Fu and Jiang Xiaocian and a few grandmasters came to the outside of Linyi City. After probing and probing, it was determined that the grandmaster in the city was gone, and they entered the city and took Linyi City with the Shaking Mountain Battalion.
Li Yunyi put away the Tianji Pot, and he didn't explain anything. The Heavenly Machine Pot has many secrets, such as releasing the breath of terrifying beasts, such as refining herbs and poisons, these things are very mysterious, not something that can be explained in one or two sentences, and he doesn't want to explain it to Gonggong Fu.
With the grain and grass in hand, Li Yunyi's heart relaxed, he looked at the map, thinking about how to go next.
In order to take Linyi City, some time was delayed, and Zhang Fengming's army was estimated to be closer. This is the territory of Qi Kingdom, and even if Chu Yuge gets the information, he won't be able to send it so quickly.
If it was just Zhang Fengming's 400,000 cavalry, Li Yunyi was actually not afraid, the key was that there were more than 20 grandmasters nearby. If those grandmasters and Zhang Fengming's army converged, then the pressure on their side would be great, and if one was not good, the whole army might be wiped out.
Father-in-law Fu stood by and didn't speak, not daring to disturb Li Yunyi's contemplation. Li Yunyi thought about it for more than half an hour, and finally crossed the map and said: "You can't continue to the east, it's time to turn north." ”
Gonggong Fu bowed slightly: "Your Highness is wise, continue to go further and further to the east, the more difficult it will be to go back, and the closer you get to Qijing, the more dangerous it is, there are many grandmasters in Qijing, there are 500,000 troops, that is the fierce Imperial Forest Army." ”
"We have dragged Ye Xiangfo for so long, and we have created such a good opportunity for him!" Li Yunyi nodded and said: "We have done our best, it's time to think about ourselves, there is still a chance to go now, and if we go further east, we will completely fall into death." Father-in-law, go to sleep, and we'll leave early tomorrow morning. ”
The next day, early in the morning, the whole army was dispatched.
There are a lot of war horses in the city, and Li Yunyi brought all those war horses, there are tens of thousands. These horses all carry grain on their backs. They took half of the food from the city, and burned the remaining half.
The army went all the way to the north, and all the generals couldn't help but see it, Li Yunyi finally didn't go east? They had long wanted to go north, but Li Yunyi insisted on it before.
The speed of walking on this road is not fast, because as long as there is a chance, Li Yunyi will ask the army to block the road behind and destroy the bridge. It's not as haphazard as it used to be, it's a massive destruction. For example, if there are high mountains on both sides of an official road, Li Yunyi will send tens of thousands of troops up the mountain to move all the stones on the mountain and throw them into the official road, which is more than ten miles into one wall......
In this way, although the speed of the march will be slow, the speed of the army behind will not be able to speed up. Zhang Fengming's 400,000 army, if he wants to catch up with these large official roads, it is impossible not to clean up, otherwise the army will not be able to pass. It is easier to destroy than to build, so as to prevent Zhang Fengming from approaching.
On the third day, the sharp-tailed swift spotted Zhang Fengming's army, which was five or six hundred miles away. Li Yunyi was relieved after getting the news, he was afraid that Zhang Fengming's army would take a detour to the front to intercept it, and he was not afraid at all if he followed behind.
"All the way north, go to Qinglong Pass, and go back to Nanchu from there!"
With a wave of his hand, Li Yunyi laid out a marching route for the army. He had been in Eastern Qi for so long, and he led a lone army in danger of annihilation at any time. He's done it to the extreme, it's impossible to really knock Qi Jing down, right?
......
On this side, Li Yunyi made a detour to the north and returned to Southern Chu, and Ye Xiangfo's attack on that side began.
The Bailiyuan army retreated to Yuzui Mountain, and Ye Xiangfo ordered the three-way army to press closer in three directions of Yuzui Mountain, and the three-way army was stationed and repaired under Yuzui Mountain, and then launched a fierce attack the next day.
Before the attack, Ye Xiangfo repeated his old tricks, and asked people to distribute leaflets, which were scattered all over Yuzui Mountain. The leaflet was a letter asking for help, which said that Xiong Jun led hundreds of thousands of troops to raid Qijing, and defeated Yuan Hao, Zhang Fengming and other three-way armies along the way. If he does not withdraw the army, Zhang Fengming will have the intention of rebellion, and he will behead the nine clans of Bailiyuan.
This leaflet could not be more fake, and any officer with a brain would think it was fake. But most of those sergeants did not have much knowledge and had a limited pattern. Even if they know that it is fake, they will inevitably be suspicious, and the morale of the army will naturally decline further.
Half an hour after the leaflets were issued, the attack on this side began, and it was a fierce attack regardless of casualties. The Eastern Qi army occupied an advantageous position on Yuzui Mountain, and although it did not build fortifications, it also had an advantage.
From morning to night, the casualties on both sides have exceeded 30,000, and the Nanchu side has not stopped. The three-way army took turns to attack, fortunately, there were many troops on the Eastern Qi side, and they took turns to fight, and Bailiyuan did not think about retreating, and now if he retreats, the whole army will be in chaos, and he will be chased and beaten by Nanchu, and the situation will be reversed.
What surprised Bailiyuan was ......
This night, Ye Xiang Buddha did not stop attacking, it was not a fake attack, but a fierce attack, and two or thirty thousand died on both sides in one night. In one day and one night, more than 50,000 troops were killed and wounded on both sides, and 10,000 more were killed on the Southern Chu side.
The next morning, Baili Yuan thought that Ye Xiangfo was going to stop. But he didn't expect that the Southern Chu army was still attacking fiercely, which made Baili Yuan's heart sink, and the corpses were all over the mountainside under the continuous attack, and the morale of Dongqi was already declining, but now the morale is even lower.
Such an attack on the side of Southern Chu, regardless of casualties, made many soldiers of Eastern Qi think that Qi Jing was really in a hurry, and Eastern Qi was really defeated, otherwise the Southern Chu army was so cowardly before, and now it is so fierce?
"Yuzui Mountain can't be done, you have to evacuate!"
Bailiyuan went halfway up the mountain and turned around, and found that there was not much advantage in guarding Yuzui Mountain, the mountain was not steep, and there were not a lot of stones and trees on the mountain. Their side only occupied the advantage of high terrain, the morale of the Eastern Qi army declined, and the morale of the Southern Chu side was like a rainbow, so the two sides were equal. If we continue to fight, I am afraid that the morale of Dongqi will become weaker and weaker, and there will be big problems at that time.
Baili Yuan returned to the temporary marshal camp, looked at the map and pondered. Half an hour later, he decided to withdraw his troops. There are not too many cities nearby, and some big cities are under the control of Nanchu, but there is a big mountain nearby, and there is only one way up the mountain, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
There is mountain spring water on the mountain, and their military rations are enough to support two months, and he will stay there for a while to see how many troops Ye Xiangfo can consume?
By noon, the troops on the Southern Chu side had withdrawn, and they had to rest after fighting for so long, otherwise the Eastern Qi side would not be able to withstand it, and the army of Southern Chu would collapse.
As soon as Baili Yuan retreated in Southern Chu, he began to set up, allowing the troops on the front line to come back and repair, and the baggage army and the rest of the army began to prepare.
At nightfall, Baili Yuan mobilized 400,000 troops and rushed directly down the mountain and entered Ye Xiangfo's military camp. Ye Xiangfo's side didn't expect this side to counterattack, he was very flustered, and the army retreated. Seeing this, Lao Jin and Baili Yuan suggested that the whole army should press and pursue the victory.
Bai Liyuan sneered a few times, did not deny it, and waved his hand: "Such an obvious flaw, this is a plan, according to the original plan, evacuate towards Longquan Mountain!"
All the troops went down the mountain, but they did not attack the Nanchu camp, but rushed all the way to the south to break through and go straight to Longquan Mountain, which was a hundred miles away. Ye Xiangfo's side was really a plan, the 400,000 troops were quickly surrounded, I have to say that Baili Yuan was a top general, he prepared another 300,000 troops early, entered from the flanks, and brought the 400,000 troops out.
Then the two armies crossed and retreated, and the pursuing army of Southern Chu not only did not take advantage, but was also strung by tens of thousands of soldiers on their side.
After running wild for two nights and one day, in the early morning of the third day, the army arrived at Longquan Mountain. Bai Liyuan led the whole army to Longquan Mountain, and he asked the soldiers to start cutting down trees and carrying stones despite fatigue, and it took half a day to build a defensive line. The Southern Chu army pursued and saw that there was no chance to attack the mountain, so they all camped at the foot of the mountain.
Baili Yuan was relieved to see that the army of Southern Chu did not directly attack the mountain, he led several grandmasters to inspect the mountain, and determined that there were two living springs in the mountain, and the amount of living water was very large, and he explored the other three directions, and it was indeed difficult for the army to come up.
"Good!"
Returning to the handsome camp built, Bai Liyuan picked up the tea and said with a comfortable face: "The terrain of this Longquan Mountain is very good, we can attack and defend here, Ye Xiangfo and they can only be beaten hard, and when it stabilizes for a few days, we will start to counterattack." Ye Xiangfo wants to fight for consumption, and General Ben will accompany him to fight to the end. ”
"Good!"
In a handsome camp at the foot of the mountain, Ye Xiangfo stood with his hands in his hands, he stood at the door of the handsome camp and looked at the towering Longquan Mountain, the corner of his mouth showed a smile, he patted Zou Hui next to him and said: "Old Zou, the layout has taken so long and spent so much money, and finally drove them to this Jedi, this time the old man wants to cut off Dongqi's hands and feet." ”
"Huh!"
Zou Hui smiled, stroked his long beard and said: "Guogong's name, this name of Bailiyuan's famous general will be directly erased after the war, Guogong is the top famous general in Eastern Shenzhou, there is no one." ”
