Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Game (1)

Both sides were busy for half a day, and there was no fighting.

In the evening, Hu Che'er sent messengers to report that they had arrived at the designated position, spread out their formation, and were ready to attack.

The cavalry led by Lu Yuanan successfully cleared out the messengers and horses of the two battalions in the southwest where the officers and troops were in contact, and firmly grasped the north-south passage outside Yingcheng.

To the south, Hu Shahu delivered an urgent report that there were garrisons of officials and troops around Jingshan Road in Hanchuan, about 3,000 people. According to the advance plan, avoid not fighting, only intercept the main road, and cut off the connection between Jingshan and Jingling.

Its subordinate soldiers are divided into three groups, one is on guard, and the reconnaissance distance of the officers and soldiers is strictly controlled; The other two bands lurked outside Jingling City without flags, and then spread their flags, pretending to be Xinkou, and pretending to enter the field of vision of the officers and soldiers defending the city in a different posture.

The military newspaper finally wrote: "The officers and soldiers probe frequently, eager to approach and watch, and the suspicion is undoubted. However, it rained heavily and the night was dark, and the villains were strictly guarded, and they could not see through the details of our army from the distant mountains.

Mr. Yin was worried that the enemy would inform the main camp in the north, send rangers, and copy to Hanchuan to see what our reinforcements were, so as to judge the reality of our army. ”

Yang Kai had anticipated this point when he was planning in detail, and he had already thought of countermeasures. It just so happened that on this night, Han Bin led 3,000 reinforcements to Yingcheng and followed him at this time.

They didn't go straight to Yingcheng without De'an, and all the people under their command were not equipped with military uniforms, and they came from afar, and they should have rested.

Han Bin had been idle for more than half a month, but this time, he didn't feel cold, knowing that Wuchang had fallen, Yang Kai didn't transfer him down, and his face was full of unhappiness.

Yang Kai immediately gave him an order, asking him to line up with the two thousand people in the city and assemble at the west gate. When the rangers outside the city detected the arrival of the official army rangers, that is, a group of 400 people, they went out from the west gate five times.

After leaving the city, they marched south to the north of Hancheon. During the march, the Han army was outside, so that the people of the city were included, and a small team was responsible for guarding, not waving flags, and trying to lengthen the formation, with only one purpose, to ask the officers and soldiers to probe the horses to see clearly the number of people going out of the city to the south.

Regardless of whether the official army was following the horse or not, he didn't bother with the counterattack, and went all the way south, and after meeting with the Hushahu Division, he was temporarily stationed in Hanchuan.

"The citizens who go out of the city with the team, General Han must pay attention, and everything else can be ignored, but the formation must be strictly organized, be careful, and not one slip away on the road."

After thinking about it, let Han Bin strictly form the formation, Yang Kai felt that it was not safe, Han Bin was alone, his energy was limited, don't call it really unbearable, but it would be a big deal.

From the reinforcements he brought in, he selected a few fine personal soldiers and ordered, "The task of guarding the people of the city will be entrusted to you to coordinate General Han." Run away from one and come to see you. ”

"Stop at Hanchuan?" Han Bin was puzzled and said, "The army and horses outside the city will be exhausted, the situation is critical, why does the general still have to do this dangerous strategy?" The villain preferred to stay in the city and help the general. ”

Yang Kai smiled and replied, "General Han doesn't need to worry about the city. Earlier, the military discussion, without waiting for General Han, we waited to plan a plan. ”

waved off his own soldiers, lowered his voice, and spoke to him in detail.

Han Bin was taken aback: "Brother Kai'er, this, this damn thing, don't you think it's too risky?" Suddenly realized that the title was wrong, and hurriedly pondered and changed his words, "If you think about it carefully, this plan is not impossible." ”

Nodding his head to avoid his gaze, he arched his hand and said, "The general always acts unexpectedly. As the saying goes, if you don't enter the tiger's den, you will get the tiger, and the villain admires it. ”

Patting the horse to greet him, he is not like a man, he is pure and quiet.

Yang Kai listened to it in his ears, surprised by his changes, and thought that his nature was not like this, but he didn't have time to pursue it again, and said: "It is up to people to plan things, and it is up to heaven to make things happen." The second brother thinks more thoroughly than the fourth brother, such a predicament can only be a miracle, and the crisis will not turn into a good situation. ”

"Yes, yes."

Han Bin stayed and said a few words to Yang Kai, roasted the fire, and seeing that he had no other orders, he went down to the city with his own soldiers to gather soldiers.

It rained for a day and two nights, gradually getting lighter, and without the initial torrent, it became endless, but the temperature dropped completely.

Yang Kai hadn't eaten dinner yet, and the soldiers saw the stitches and brought some military food, which was steaming, and the food in the shed was fragrant for a while.

But he didn't want to use it, so he sat back at the desk, unfolded the map, and asked his soldiers to pick up a few broken tiles and pebbles, and decorate the map to deduce the wargame.

The soldiers were accustomed to his behavior of forgetting to sleep and eat, and knew that when he was thinking about things, he was most annoyed by others and did not dare to remind him.

I waited until the food was cold, and then I warmed it up and brought it in. It's just that it wasn't until the soldiers brought back the hot rice that Yang Kai didn't even glance at the tile bowl.

The 800 soldiers who went out at night suffered dozens of casualties. Marching back and forth for forty miles, all of them were exhausted, Yang Kai rewarded each person with a bowl of wine and half a catty of meat, all of which were credited once, and requisitioned the houses of the city's citizens near the city gate, and seized the time to roast the fire and rest.

Soon after all the affairs were arranged, the horses of the officers and soldiers appeared outside the city. Yang Kai pretended not to know, and with an order, the west city gate was opened, and Han Bin's troops quietly went out of the city and down the river. The scout horses of the officers and soldiers divided into a team, and fell far behind, following the entourage.

Sending Han Bin away, Yang Kaiming took charge of the ground and personally led the team to patrol the city. While inspecting the city's defense equipment, he urged the men and women, the old and weak, who had changed shifts to avoid the rain, all came out.

At the moment, their troops are really insufficient, and the first thing Han Bin's troops need to attack on a rainy night is to rest, Han Bin took away the young and strong city citizens, and indiscriminately filled the army.

The rest of the city who were a little older, he did not let go, and drove out of the house.

Let them not light torches, distribute more flags, and take turns to walk around the city wall, giving the officers and soldiers the illusion that their city defense is still strong and strong.

Now Yanhou and Hu Che'er have brought out nearly 4,000 people, which makes the situation worse for Deng Fangbu, who is not wealthy, and the most taboo official army is attacking at this time.

To make a play, he had to do a full set, and deliberately let the soldiers whip their horses around the city overnight, slow to the east of the city, and gallop back, so that they made a long neighing and the sound of horses' hooves from far and near, and transmitted these sounds to the outside of the city, so that the officers and soldiers of the night scouts would know.

This drama was stopped in one go. There is another purpose, to make the enemy wonder about the reality of the city defense, and he can't see clearly at night, so he sacrifices his life to explore during the day, so that Lu Yuan'an can kill more horses, take his mount, and strengthen his own department.

Delay the time for the actions of the Yanhou Department and the reinforcements brought by Han Bin, and when the time is right, find another opportunity to let a few officials and soldiers come in, and bring back the news that the garrisons on the city are all people.

Without the cover of night, the officers and soldiers slowly withdrew. At night, Yang opened them to watch recently, but during the day, he led the cavalry out to sweep.

In order to prevent them from killing the horses, Yang Kai ordered Lu Yuan'an to sweep ten miles outside the south of the city and expand the area of control, so as to limit the range of activities of the officials and troops during the day.

Today is not as bad as the gloom of two days, the camp of the officers and soldiers is faintly visible, and the towering watchtowers and flagpoles are drenched in the rain, corresponding to the camp of the mountain pass garrison.

There is no rain and fog on the road within five miles outside the city, climb high and look out, the field of vision is broad, and there is no obstruction at a glance.

After a busy day and two nights, all the military horses that should be in place have been in place; The arrangement, the matters to be noted, and the details have also been arranged and noted. So far, the start has been pretty good.

Yang Kai looked at the mountain pass to the west, and the second wave of military reports from Deng Fang himself who replaced Hu Che'er had not arrived, and he must be in the midst of a fierce battle.

Deng Fang's ability to attack fortifications is average, but he will be outside, and it is useless to worry. Yang Kai pressed his mind and returned to the shed, thinking about what was in front of him.

The small stones and broken tiles placed on the map have their own representatives, the small stones represent their own side, and the broken tiles represent the enemy. There are all kinds of things, and they are scattered, like a chess game.

Picking up a pebble was like holding a chess piece, and he suddenly felt a lot.

Isn't this pebble in the hands of others the real situation they were in half a year ago?

Once upon a time, from thieves to soldiers, they were all for survival, and there were many side lines, missing their lineage, thinking of power, and Yang Taisui's death was so that one day, Yang Kai could have the opportunity to become a chess player.

Although his chess board only has De'an and Hanyang Baili, there are no more than 10,000 chess pieces available at the moment. But the contrast has turned the world upside down.

But he didn't feel any lighthearted. Think of Gao Yingxiang, think of Gao Yingen. It is not difficult for a person to be a chess player once in a lifetime, but it is difficult to be a chess player for a lifetime.

He gently lowered the stone, remembering the sensation at this moment.

It's like two people playing on a chessboard.

Yingcheng and Jingling were halfway through the game of chess before he arrived, and he lost his hand, and if he wanted to win, he had to start from a strange place.

Thinking about what people dare not think and what others dare not do, will the enemy be surprised and have the hope of turning the tables.

On the desk, there are four small stones, one in the mountain pass, one in the south of Yingcheng, one in the Jingling to Jingshan area, and one in Jingling;

There are six broken tiles, two in Yingcheng, one in Jingling, and the remaining three pieces, one in Suizhou and two in Yuezhou. Although he started at the beginning, he had already followed closely behind, and several armies and horses came out.

Han Bin went out of the city and Hu Che'er returned to the city. Yang Kai had two more stones in his hand, and took one to Hanchuan; He also moved the bluestone in front of the white stone on the south side back to the city. In the first round of the game, the enemy did not move.

How will the enemy react? He stared at the white stone to the south, pondering the enemy's train of thought, sometimes picking it up, sometimes putting it down.

He guessed that the greatest possibility for the officers and troops should be to hold on. Of course, it is not inevitable to divide the troops in Hanchuan, encircle and annihilate the Husha Tiger Division, or pull out the camp to attack the city.

If he comes to attack the city, how will I deal with it? If he goes to encircle and suppress the Husha Tiger Department, how will he deal with it? If he holds still,......

In order to strengthen the city's defense in response to the enemy's attack, he led Han Bin's troops to Hanchuan, and responded to the danger of the enemy's encirclement and suppression of Hubu, and the two battles of Hucheer Pass covered Yanhou's northward movement.

The start is set, and there are no regrets.

When the player enters the game, the victory or defeat depends on the means of the players on both sides.

Layout and breakthrough, the former depends on their own mobilization arrangements, waits for the enemy to make corresponding countermeasures, or continues or makes corresponding changes according to the situation.
