Volume 1 Troubled Times Chapter 90 When the lure enemy met the night attack
Wang Rong led 15,000 troops to Shuofang City, the speed was very fast, 200 miles, he only took two days to complete 150 miles.
When Wang Rong rode the red clouds and looked at the scenery on the big river not far away, a sound of horses' hooves came from the front, and he fixed his eyes to see that Chu Luxu was galloping towards him with his own soldiers.
"Phewβ"
Chu Luxu tugged on the reins and stopped the war horse next to Chiyun, he bowed on his horse and saluted: "Du Lieutenant, Wusima asked me to report that I have already encountered the scouts of the Bearded People in front. β
When Wang Rong heard this, he said to Wang Hao: "Yutu! β
Wang Mao quickly took out the map from his backpack and spread his hands out. Wang Rong used the index finger of his right hand to find Shuofang City and his own location, and while looking at the map, he asked, "What is the combat effectiveness of the scouts of the Badbeard people?" β
When Chu Luxu heard this, he said with an ugly face: "The combat effectiveness of the Bearded Scouts is very strong, and they are all in groups of five, all wearing bows and arrows, spears, shooting arrows from a distance, and charging at close range. Their archery skills are very powerful, not the level of those tribal soldiers under Guangmu City, and they are even more powerful than the cavalry of the Xiongben Army. β
When Wang Rong heard this, he understood in his heart: "Order the army to advance ten miles further and camp here." β
Wang Rong's finger pointed to a place on the map, which was bordered by a large river in the north, hills in the south, the road from Guangmu City by Wang Rong's army in the west, and a horn mouth in the east, which was an endless grassland.
Wang's army continued to march to the designated position, and then quickly began to set up camp. The strength of the camp requested by Wang Rong this time was not the same as that of the camp in the west of Guangmu City, and only one high wall was built in the camp, and only one trench was dug outside the high wall.
In the military tent in the camp, Wang Rong summoned all the generals, pointed to the map hanging on the side with a wooden pole and said: "According to the information sent back by the scouts, this army of the Devil Mane is very strong in combat effectiveness of the scouts, and the Devils put the scout's patrol range so far away, it is impossible to prevent Shuofang City from asking for help. β
Zhang Gengxiao said: "Could it be that they knew about my Yongguo reinforcements earlier, so that they could retreat in advance?" β
Hearing this, Wang Wei shook his head and said, "The Badman is used to being arrogant, and the commander of this 20,000-strong Badman army cannot be at the level of a commander of ten thousand, at least at the level of a day or a gradual general. A person who can reach this level in the Qiangmane Khanate cannot be a coward. β
Lin Chong was not sure, and said suspiciously: "Then he still dares to come to us directly?" β
Wang Rong nodded to Lin Chong and said: "This possibility is very high, now that we are located in the plain, there is only one camp that is not very strong, if I am the main general, how can I miss such a good opportunity." Even if you don't sneak attack, you can fight in a dignified battle, and 20,000 horsemen can fight if you can beat it, and run away if you can't beat it. β
Zhang Gengxiao didn't understand a little and said, "Sneak attack? Their scouts are so aggressive, it only makes us more guarded, how can they sneak attack? β
Wu Mo spoke out at this time and said: "The scout is strong, just to make us vigilant, and then take precautions. We came from afar, marched hard, and lasted for most of the night, and by dawn, we were already sleepy and tired. Now that it is winter, even at dawn, the visibility is not high, and if a sneak attack is launched at this time, our army will be exhausted and the enemy army will be fierce, and it will inevitably be defeated. β
Zhang Gengxiao listened to Wu Mo's analysis and gasped, if the situation is really as Wu Mo wants, then this bearded man is indeed very cunning and cruel.
Wang Rong then pointed to the place on the map showing the hills on the south side, and said: "Just now my guards came here to check, the hills are not big, the west is the grassland, the south is the desert, and the north is the big camp, I am going to arrange the army behind the hills, and leave a thousand people in the big camp as bait, there is no need for them to resist when the enemy comes, just need them to arrange the big camp like tens of thousands of people." β
Zheng Zijin spoke: "Captain, leave this task to the lowly position, our 4,000-strong team is willing to act as this bait." β
Wang Rong looked at him fixedly, and Zheng Zijin's initiative made him feel satisfied. No one wants to be a bait, if they don't send the army of the Western Governor's Mansion to act as bait, but let Zhang Genghuang and Lin Chong's troops do it, then although they accept it on the surface, they will definitely be dissatisfied in their hearts.
The three governor's mansions of Shuofang County are each doing their own thing, but in fact, they are indeed both prosperous and loss-making. Wang Rong didn't want to have a dislike with them because of some trivial things.
Wang Rong did not reveal his thoughts, and said with a serious face: "Okay, there is your team of 1,000 people as bait, I don't ask you to be able to fight, just lure the Bearded Man into the camp." β
Zheng Zijin bowed and saluted: "Humble and orderly." β
Wang Rong is arranging how to lure the enemy, and in the Chinese army tent of the big camp under Shuofang City, Wang Yi Nalou Ulu is also gathering his generals to discuss the military situation.
Zuo Wanfu of the wolf guard marched six roots and said to Yina Lou Ulu: "The king of the day, the last general thinks that we can attack it directly, the Yong people are not good at field warfare, we can completely annihilate them in the field." β
The right commander of the Wolf Guard, Douling Baturu, said with a look of disdain: "Reckless man, the sons and daughters of the Wolf Guard are not the ladders for you to make achievements!" β
Buliugen Buyan couldn't help but be furious when he heard Sudouling Baturu: "Youγγγ β
Yi Nalou Ulu reprimanded angrily: "Okay, can you stop making trouble?!" β
The two captains stopped, and Yi Nalou Ulu looked at the two and said, "My 20,000 wolf guards have surrounded Shuofang City for many days, why do I besiege but not attack?" Because we are cavalry, it is impossible to storm the city as foot soldiers. In the past few days, the scouts have probed the situation within a hundred miles of the surrounding area. The only one who can support Shuofang City is Guangmu City. β
Bu Liugen Buyan asked puzzledly, "But isn't the King of Right Valley Li attacking Guangmu City with his army?" Where did this reinforcement from the west come from? β
Yi Na Lou Ulu replied: "Although the king of Yougu Li is attacking Guangmu City, he is not completely surrounded, but chooses to attack the city from the west of Guangmu City, surround it in the south, and let it go in the east. I think this army was gathered in the city of Guangmu and came from the gap. β
Sudouling Baturu was even more puzzled: "Then why didn't the King of Yougu Lili send troops to wipe out this army on the road?" β
When Ulu heard Douling Baturu, his face was strange, and the two captains were shocked when they saw the secretive expression on his face, and they stopped talking.
If you want to trace the origin of the grievances between the Knowles and the Yu Shi clan, you have to trace it back to the current Khan of the Qianghu Khanate.
During the era of the Yu Sheshi clan, he intermarried with the Yu Shi clan, and the woman of Yu Sheshi became the Khotun of the Qiange Khanate, and the son she gave birth to was the next Khan of the Qiangshi Khanate.
But when it came to the generation of the silent slur, things went awry. Although Ke Dun is Yu Shi Shi, Ke Dun has no son, and the one who has a son is Yi Na Knowles, the most favored wife of Su Yu Mo.
He was bent on helping the son born of the Buna Knowles to the position of the heir to the Devil's Khanate in every possible way, so he tried his best to pull the Hornbeard Khanate down from his horse.
Yi Na Lou's mother is expensive with her son, and she favors the harem, so she is naturally unconvinced by Ke Dunyu's shooting of Shi's family. The open and secret struggle between the two women made the unstable Falcon see an opportunity. Through many overtures, he reached an alliance with the Ke Dun Yu Shi clan to jointly deal with the Su Yu Mo Si and Yi Na Lou clan.
This kind of political struggle inevitably affected the war situation at this time. For what purpose did Yu Sheshi and An release this army out of Guangmu City, and the heart of Ulu was like a mirror.
However, Yi Nalou Ulu didn't expect that Yu Sheshi and An were already corpses at this time, and it was impossible for him to stop Wang Rong.
Yi Nalou Ulu shook his head slightly, shook out the distracting thoughts in his mind, and said to the two captains: "I plan to launch a night attack, but the time is not tonight, but tomorrow dawn, let the soldiers put on their armor, put their weapons at hand, get up on the third watch, and then eat, set off on the fourth watch, and attack on the fifth watch." β
Bu Liugen Buyan and Sudouling Baturu nodded in agreement, and then turned around and left the camp tent of the Chinese army.
When the moon hung in the sky, Wang Rong led 14,000 men to the southern hill, and at the leeward side, Wang Rong said to Lin Chong: "Lin Duwei, you set out with the brothers of the Eastern Governor's Mansion to the east side of the hill. Zhang Duwei, you take the brothers of the Central Governor's Mansion to the north side of the hill. Send people to keep an eye on the direction of the camp at all times, and once the fire starts, lead the troops to rush and kill. β
Lin Chong and Zhang Genghuang bowed their hands and saluted, indicating that they received the order. The two left in a hurry, and Wang Rong's team was suddenly reduced by half. Wang Rong looked at Wumo, who was eager to try, put his hand on his forehead, and said helplessly: "Wusima, this enemy army has not come yet, let's rest first." β
Wumo had no choice but to let his war horse sit down on his knees, and he rested with his eyes closed on his war horse.
