Chapter Seventy-Eight: It's Always a Bad Move (Ask for Follow-up!) )

Yesterday, before Wang Yu led the army to Yangzhou City, Tan Zhi sent hundreds of horsemen to tell Wang Yu that the rebels were besieging the city, and the Gaoyou army was in danger.

Once the Gaoyou army is attacked by the rebels, Wang Yu's troops, who do not bring much food and grass, will be a deep lone army—a lone army that may be completely annihilated by the enemy at any time and anywhere.

There was no way, Wang Yu could only immediately return to help, ready to fight the daring and lucky rebels who did not hit him headlong with Tan Zhi inside and outside.

Along the way, Wang Yu, who had been in battle for a long time, had been marching rapidly, but also very cautious, and every time he came to a place where he could be ambushed, he would first send someone to reconnoitre, and then pass through the division, never giving the rebels any chance to take advantage of.

Finally, Wang Yu personally led an army of 8,000 horses and rushed back to the Gaoyou army in time.

But as soon as Wang Yu came back, he felt that something seemed to be wrong.

There was still a short distance from the Gaoyou army, and Wang Yu saw that the Gaoyou army did not seem to have been attacked, and the banner of the Song army was also hung on the city wall.

Wang Yu looked down again, and saw a horse army of the Tiger Army, they calmly mounted their horses, and then beat their horses like the wind and left.

Seeing this scene, Wang Yu's heart sank, and he suddenly had a very bad premonition: "Could it be that I have been tricked?!" ”

When he came to the city, Wang Yu intercepted a man and asked him, "How many men and horses are there in the ant thief?" ”

The man replied timidly: "There were a lot of them last night, I'm afraid there were not 30,000 or 20,000 horses, and around the hour, most of the ant thieves retreated into the distance, and then they didn't know where to go, and then only the camp of ant thieves just now watched over us and waited for us to build cloud ladders and make wooden curtains......

Hearing this, Wang Yu's heart sank again, and he said secretly: "It's not good! I'm going to be the trick! ”

At this time, Tan Zhi personally greeted him: "Fortunately, the ministers rescued him in time, otherwise Gaoyou will be broken by ant thieves, and the Great Song Dynasty will be in danger." ”

Wang Yu suppressed his anger and said: "Why did Xianggong say this, how can there be ant thieves in the local area attacking the city?" ”

Tan Zhi snorted: "That's the ant thief who was afraid of your name and dispersed." ”

Wang Yu couldn't suppress his anger anymore: "The ant thieves only have a battalion of horse troops, and there are 320,000 troops in the village, why should they rely on my name to retreat?!" ”

When Tan Zhi heard this, his face couldn't help but sink: "Zhengchen said cowardly, but I think that this official has an army of 320,000 and does not dare to fight with a battalion of ant thieves?" ”

Wang Yu didn't speak, but the expression on his face already showed that he meant it.

"Humph!"

Tan Zhi snorted heavily: "Last night, before the official sent someone to order you to come back to help, Shenju Mountain had been broken by the ant thieves, and the ant thieves had an army of 320,000 besieged the city. ”

Wang Yu didn't squeak, in that case, Tan Shu actually didn't have any problem transferring him back to help, after all, Yangzhou City could be recovered at a later date, but the Gaoyou army couldn't lose it anymore.

It is precisely because of this that after receiving Tan Zhen's order, Wang Yu immediately returned to help.

Seeing that Wang Yu's expression softened a little, Tan Zhi said again: "And the person who commanded the ant thief last night was Li Cun's thief, you should know that the thief is insidious and cunning, and he is scheming, he only left a battalion of men and horses outside my city, can An make sure that this is not his poisonous plan to lure me out of the city?" ”

Wang Yu heard that it was Li Cun who commanded the troops outside the Gaoyou Army last night, and hurriedly confirmed: "How does the prime minister know that it is Li Cun's thief?" ”

Tan Zhi waved his hand, and someone immediately dragged up a person who was beaten to a bloody pulp.

Tan Zhi pointed at this person and said: "This is an attack on the ant thief of Shenju Mountain On Wednesday, Hong's subordinates risked death to capture him alive, and I personally tortured him and learned that the person who commanded the army last night was Li Cun's thief, if you don't believe it, you can ask him yourself." ”

Speaking of this, Tan Zhi arched his hand in the direction of Bianliang in Tokyo: "Although Tan Zhi failed to live up to the grace of the saint and was defeated by the ant thief, he is not the person who is afraid of war, if it is not for the fear that the Gaoyou army will fall into the hands of the thief and make your subordinates suffer from the enemy, Tan Zhi will personally lead the army to fight with Li Cun's thief again." ”

For Tan Zhen's impassioned words, Wang Yu didn't believe in a single punctuation mark, and now he was full of the safety of the 5,000 Dingli gun platoons and the 7,000 Jiangnan forbidden army under Zhang Wei's control.

Who would have thought, Wang Yu had just thought of the more than 12,000 Song army infantry under Zhang Yu's command, and dozens of dense explosions suddenly sounded in the direction of Wang Yu's return.

Wang Yu immediately closed his eyes: "It's over!" Zhang, they are more auspicious! ”

Wang Yu really wanted to go back to rescue the 5,000 Dingli gun platoons and the 7,000 Jiangnan forbidden army under Zhang Wei's command, but Wang Yu saw that these 8,000 people under his command who had run more than 200 miles in one day and one night, how could it be possible to run dozens of miles to rescue?

Taking a step back, even if Wang Yu reluctantly took these 8,000 men and horses to kill them back, they would not be able to fight, and they could only increase the battle record for the traitors in vain.

As for Tan Zhen's men? They didn't even dare to go out of the city to fight with five hundred ant thieves, and they could still be expected to save people?

At this time, Wang Yu deeply understood why Tan Zhi and Zhang Wei were so afraid of Li Cun, and even somewhat understood why Tan Zhi and Zhang Wei asked him not to use stratagems and fight with Li Cun, so he would fight with Li Cun or even a decisive battle.

"This thief is very good at exploiting human loopholes, creating fighter planes, the slightest carelessness, he will be divided and attacked, a difficult enemy, no wonder people who have fought with him are afraid of him like a tiger!"

Wang Yu was a little puzzled: "How can this thief take advantage of me everywhere, I ask myself that I have gone all out, but why is it always a bad move?" ”

Wang Yu shook his head, suppressed this thought first, and then asked Tan Zhi to quickly send a few sentries to investigate along the road he came from to see what was going on with the men and horses of Zhang's department?

After the sentinel left, Wang Yu immediately ordered the 8,000 men and horses under his command to rest and recuperate, just in case.

After settling the 8,000 men, Wang Yu returned to his residence and wrote a handwritten letter to Tong Guan, detailing the battle, pleading Tong Guan for his guilt, and asking Tong Guan to lead the army south as soon as possible, so that he could not delay any longer and could not disperse south.

——Wang Yu was very afraid that Li Cun would be bold enough to bypass the Gaoyou army and attack Tong Guan on the way to the south......
