Chapter 164: Good Generals Plot

As early as the day of the end of the military parade in the Jin Kingdom, Lin Haotian quietly left Wancheng, the capital of Jin, and took his generals and strategists to ride fast horses and go straight to Wuling County.

Along the way, everyone ate and slept in the open, almost did not stop, and it only took three days to arrive from Wancheng to Wuling County.

After arriving in Wuling County, Lin Haotian and his subordinates had a good night's rest, and in the early morning of the next day, Lin Haotian gathered the generals and discussed the specific details of the attack in detail, and then had breakfast and the whole army attacked.

The first wave came out of the 80,000 Jin army led by Ling Wuya, under the leadership of Ling Wuya, these 80,000 horses did not fight Xiaopei, nor did they attack Yucheng, but slowly passed through the middle of the two cities and headed towards Liaodong.

The reason why Ling Wuya's march was slow, this was also deliberately arranged by Lin Haotian, its purpose was to lure the garrisons of Xiaopei and Yucheng to attack, these two cities each had 60,000 garrisons, if they really defended the city, even if the first army and the second army were to fight, it would not be easy to defeat it, if they could lead these 120,000 people out of the city and fight on flat ground, it would be effortless for their side to win.

Lin Haotian calculated very well, but neither Xiaopei nor Yucheng were fooled.

The commander of the 100,000 Mu army stationed in Xiaopei is Ouyang Xuan, the general of Mu Guozhong, this person is famous for his timidity and fear, and he is extremely afraid of Liu Ji, since the Red Army withdrew from the coalition army this time, Liu Ji gave Ouyang Xuan an order to garrison Xiaopei, without his will, no matter what happens, he must not lead the army out of the city.

The reason why Liu Ji issued such an order was mainly because he was afraid that the generals below would be greedy for merit and rashly attack Wuling County, and it was likely that not only would they not be able to defeat it, but they would also increase casualties.

Ouyang Xuan didn't know what Liu Ji's purpose was, he only remembered the king's order to let him garrison Xiao Pei and not leave the city.

At this time, the following is to explore the Malay newspaper. Suddenly, a Jin army of about 80,000 people was found to be marching towards Liaodong, and slowly passed between Xiaopei and Yucheng.

Hearing this news, the generals under Ouyang Xuan's command were overjoyed, 80,000 people came to the Jin Kingdom, and they were still between Xiaopei and Yucheng, isn't this a good opportunity to attack the Jin army on both sides and make miraculous achievements? The generals immediately asked Ouyang Xuan for battle. He was asked to inform Sun Cheng, the lieutenant general stationed in Fengcheng, to send troops on both sides to flank the Jin army.

Hearing the invitation of the generals below, Ouyang Xuan's head shook like a rattle, and he said faintly: "The king has an order, and he ordered me to hold on here." Now, if I send troops, even if I can do miraculous feats, I will disobey orders, and if I don't get it, I will lose my head, and I will not send troops now. Even if I obey the king's orders, I don't care where the Jin army goes, it has nothing to do with me. ”

After listening to Ouyang Xuan's words, the noses of all the generals below were almost crooked, is this what the commander of the first army should say? Outside, the monarch's order is not affected! If you don't even have this bit of courage, what kind of army did you join in the first place?

But Ouyang Xuan is the main general, and he does not agree to fight. The soldiers below can't help it.

On the other side, Sun Cheng, the commander of the 100,000 Mu Army stationed in Fengcheng, also heard the news that the 80,000 Jin Army passed between Xiaopei and Yucheng. Sun Cheng jumped so high with joy, he was worried that there was no battle to fight, but the Jin army took the initiative to send it to the door, and he immediately had to give the order to go out of the city to meet the Jin army.

Don't look at Sun Cheng's hot head, a little carried away. But his lieutenant is unusual, this person's name is Shen Fang, and he is a veteran who has been on the battlefield for a long time.

He dissuaded Sun Cheng and said: "General, the Jin army is coming strangely, if the Jin army really wants to sneak attack Hedong." It is impossible to send only 100,000 people to come, and it is impossible to march slowly, let alone walk from the middle of our two cities with heavy troops with great fanfare.

Hearing this, Sun Cheng took a breath and immediately calmed down. He can achieve the title of lieutenant general, and he also has some ability, and now that he is reminded by Shen Fang, he nodded secretly, it makes sense, this Jin army is really strange!

He asked, "Old General Shen, what about your opinion?"

Shen Fang Zhengse said: "Our army will not be able to hold out, wait and see what happens, in addition, the general should immediately send a letter to the king and wait for the king's will to act." ”

"Yes, yes, yes! What the old general said is reasonable!" Sun Cheng nodded again and again, and then he suddenly remembered something, hurriedly called a subordinate, and said: "You immediately go and send a message to General Ouyang of Xiao Pei, and let him stick to Xiao Pei and not attack easily." ”

Before the man could agree, Shen Fang smiled, waved his hand and said, "No need." ”

"What?" Sun Cheng looked at him puzzled.

Shen Fang said with a smile: "General Ouyang has always been cautious, if he attacks, he will definitely report to the general in advance, and ask the general to attack the Jin army with him, but until now, General Ouyang's letter has not arrived, indicating that he has also given up his plan to attack the Jin army." Shen Fang knew Ouyang Xuan too well, and it was flattering to say that he was cautious, but in fact he was very timid and afraid, even if he borrowed ten guts, he would not dare to face the Jin army alone.

After listening to Shen Fang's words, Sun Cheng also smiled, nodded, waved his hand to the subordinate who had just been called, and said: "You go down! By the way, I ordered the officers and men of our army to stick to the city and beware of a sneak attack by the Jin army.

"Yes, General!" the general intervened and hurried away.

Lin Hao's angel came up with a strategy to lure the snake out of the hole, Ouyang Xuan, the commander of Xiaopei's wooden army, did not dare to disobey the king's order and did not go out of the city, while Sun Cheng, the commander of Yucheng, was dissuaded by Shen Fang, the deputy general under his command, and did not send troops to attack, and the result ended in failure.

Lin Haotian didn't care, seeing that the Red Army was not fooled, he rode his horse to catch up with Ling Wuya and went to Liaodong with him, and at the same time, the First Army and the Second Army went to Xiaopei and Yucheng respectively.

After the first army arrived at Xiaopei, they immediately set up camp, and Ding Feng and Lu Kai personally went up to the tower and raised their eyes to look at the situation in Xiaopei City.

Xiaopei City only has small characters in its name, but in fact it is not small at all, and there are 100,000 troops in it, which shows the breadth of the city. Behind the high wall of Xiaopei City, the Ning army in the city is bright and bright, and the soldiers are like a forest, standing there, like a steel city wall.

After watching it, Ding Feng secretly grinned, this battle is not easy to fight! Thinking about it, he asked Lu Kai beside him: "General Lu, how do you think our army should deal with this battle?"

Lu Kai is not only strong in martial arts, but also quite good in his mind, he pondered for a moment, and said: "Xiaopei City is strong, and there are 60,000 people of the wooden army to defend it, and the wooden army has an arrow array to rely on, it is even easier to defend and difficult to attack, if our army forcibly attacks the city, I am afraid that it will not only be difficult to break through Xiaopei, but also lose troops and generals, and frustrate oneself!"

Ding Feng nodded, what Lu Kai said was exactly what he was worried about.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Lu Kai said again: "I have a plan, I don't know if it's feasible!"

"Oh?" Ding Feng knew that Lu Kai was very shrewd, and after hearing this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "What is General Lu's plan?" ”

Lu Kai didn't speak immediately, but turned and walked under the tower.

Ding Bong curiously followed behind him and also descended the tower.

When he got to the ground, Lu Kai raised his foot and stomped on the ground hard, and immediately left two footprints on the ground, he smiled at Ding Feng, then looked down, and said, "General, please look." ”

Ding Feng lowered his head and looked at the two footprints on the ground, wondering in his heart, what are the footprints so beautiful to look at, and what do they have to do with his own broken city? He asked puzzledly, "What did General Lu ask me to see?"

Lu Kai explained: "The land here is fertile, mostly soft soil, and our army can't attack openly, so we can come and attack secretly. ”

As he spoke, he raised his eyes to look in the direction of Xiao Pei, and said: "Our camp is more than two miles away from Xiao Pei, with the softness of the land here, it only takes ten days to dig a tunnel from the camp to Xiao Pei City, as long as our army can enter the city smoothly, then the wooden army will be vulnerable." ”

After hearing this, Ding Feng gasped, he squatted down thoughtfully, looked at Lu Kai's footprints, and then poked the soil on the ground with his fingers, and nodded slowly, the soil here is fertile, warm and humid and rainy, and the soil is extremely soft, as Lu Kai said, with the manpower of his own army of 50,000, it will not take a few days to dig a tunnel more than two miles long, and ten days are more than a few days.

He rolled his eyes, slowly stood up, and said with a smile: "We can use stone throwers and crossbowmen to constantly harass the wooden army in the city day and night to distract their energy, and at the same time, it is also for us to dig tunnels in the camp as a cover......

Lu Kai looked up and smiled, and continued: "In this way, our army can take Xiao Pei lightly!"

“haha――”

After speaking, Ding Feng and Lu Kai stood up on their backs. (To be continued......)
