Chapter 242: Draw Salary from the Bottom of the Cauldron! Huo Guang led his army behind enemy lines
King Yu Cheng, who realized that something was wrong, immediately ordered that the division enter the city.
The troops of 30,000 men poured into the city of the second division.
It's just that.
When they came in, they were dumbfounded, how could there be any trace of the Han army in the entire Second Division City?
Most of them are dummies supported by straw branches.
The only real person is the "Huo Guang" who plays the flute on the city gate tower.
King Yu Cheng immediately sent someone to arrest the "Huo Guang" on the tower of the city gate, but when the soldiers brought it to the front to take a look, they found that the person in front of him was not Huo Guang who had confronted him before.
Thereupon.
King Yu Cheng grabbed this person's clothes and said, "Who are you?" Where's your General Huo? ”
I saw that the man was not afraid at all, and said lightly: "I am a guard under General Huo, as for General Huo's current person?" Hmph, you'll find out soon. ”
See the Han soldiers like this.
King Yu Cheng suddenly frowned, feeling that something bad was about to happen.
But he couldn't imagine what this Huo Guang was doing with the Han army!
After a moment of thought.
King Yu Cheng continued to ask: "Say, how did you Han army escape under our encirclement?" ”
However.
The little soldier wearing the armor of the general of the chariot cavalry smiled and said, "Escape? Don't look down on people, just you Dawan, you are not qualified to let us Han escape! ”
"That's right."
"King Yu Cheng, our general asked me to leave you a message, he said, you are too arrogant, you don't even understand the truth that soldiers are not tired of cheating."
Hear this.
Yu Cheng immediately gave the Han soldiers in front of him two slaps, and then ordered his subordinate soldiers with a cold look in his eyes: "Pass on the king's order, give me a search in the city, even if I dig three feet into the ground, I must find out for this king." ”
"The king still doesn't believe it."
"Surrounded by my 30,000 elites, these 4,000 Han soldiers can still fly!"
Thereupon.
On the orders of King Yu Cheng.
The 30,000 Dawan elites frantically searched in the Second Division City, and at the same time interrogated the aborigines who were still alive in the Second Division City, that is, the Dawan people living in the Second Division City.
from their mouths.
King Yu Cheng learned that the Han people had been digging tunnels during the days they had occupied Dawan.
It's not.
King Yu Cheng took people and found the tunnel.
And the Dawan nobleman who has been persuading peace is also by his side. When he saw this huge tunnel, Cai Fang suddenly realized: "No wonder, the last time I came to Ershi City, the Han people and residents in the city were all gray and tired. ”
"Original."
"They have already dug an escape tunnel, and they are not afraid of us and others besieging the city!"
When King Yu Cheng heard Yu Cheng's words, he immediately pushed the other party and said angrily: "You idiot, why don't you tell this to this king?" ”
Yu Cai immediately cried and said with a sad face: "King Yu Cheng, wronged, how could I think of these things at that time." ”
However.
King Yu Cheng saw that the four thousand Han troops had disappeared, as if he had driven a nail in his heart, and he was very angry.
Immediately, he didn't care about the identity of the Dawan nobleman of Wu Cai, and directly grabbed Wu Cai's hair and said, "This king is very angry now!" ”
"If it weren't for you, fool, to keep making peace."
"The 4,000 soldiers and horses of the Han people have long been the souls of this king."
At this moment, Mo Cai can only wail and beg to be let go.
And Yu Chengwang, after taking a deep breath, tried to calm his mood so that he did not lose his mind.
I saw that the green tendons at the corners of my eyebrows burst out like a dragon, and I gritted my teeth and said, "Go, lead a team of men and horses, escort the Han soldiers, and explore where this hole leads!" ”
"Yes."
So dozens of people escorted the Han man into the cave and checked the exit at the other end.
At this time, King Yu Cheng still had a touch of expectation in his heart.
He hoped that the cave had not been dug and that the Han army had not escaped.
But this expectation is destined to be disappointed.
And this time.
Suddenly, a guard hurriedly came and said: "Yu Yu Chengwang, something is wrong, news came from the rear of our army that the grain and grass hoarded in the granary of the plank road were burned by the Han army that suddenly appeared. ”
"What?"
King Yu Cheng suddenly said angrily: "Didn't this king stay with five thousand elite soldiers? The terrain is also easy to defend and difficult to attack, the Han people are only 4,000 soldiers and horses, how to burn the grain and grass that our army has hoarded there? ”
Hear the words.
The soldier hurriedly said: "I heard that it was at midnight last night, and the Han army suddenly appeared and caught our army off guard. ”
"Of the 5,000 elite soldiers left behind, more than half were killed or wounded."
"The remaining soldiers were ready to fight to the death with the Han army, but the Han army did not love war, and after burning the grain and grass hoarded by our army, they fled through the night."
Hearing the return of the guards, King Yu Cheng, who was already on the fire, was even more angry in his heart, and immediately scolded: "This king has repeatedly ordered that grain and grass are the lifeblood of our army, and such a big thing has happened. ”
"Yes!"
With the departure of the guards, King Yu Cheng was greatly annoyed.
However.
Before he could calm down.
A violent explosion suddenly sounded from the passage in front of him, which frightened King Yu Cheng.
A puff of smoke cleared.
Suddenly.
There was a coughing sound from inside the cave, and a hand came out of the cave.
King Yu Cheng hurriedly said to the surrounding soldiers: "Go and help." ”
"Yes!"
An order.
The soldiers stepped forward and pulled out the few people who had escaped from the entrance of the cave, and before they could rest, King Yu Cheng stepped forward and asked, "What happened?" Didn't the king send you to see where this cave leads? Why are a few of you back, and the rest of the soldiers? ”
Hear the words.
The soldier who escaped from the cave that collapsed just now, and the soldier who was currently in shock gasped and said: "Tell King Yu Cheng, the Han people are cunning, set up an ambush in the cave, ignited a black powder, and detonated the cave. ”
"The rest of the people who are ahead of you."
"Estimated, I'm afraid"
When the Dawan soldier said this, he didn't say anything more.
After hearing this, King Yu Cheng naturally knew that his personal soldiers basically had no possibility of coming back alive, and he was even more angry.
The grain and grass were burned, the soldiers were killed, and they were played by the Han army.
This Yu became king.
The expression on his face was extremely gloomy, and King Yu Cheng at this moment had become a powder keg that was about to explode.
No one dared to look at him.
And King Yu Cheng was also trying his best to restrain his anger at this time, only to see him find a stone and sit down, then close his eyes tightly, and said, "Yu Cai, don't you know the Han people very well?" ”
"Tell me!"
"Where will these 4,000 Han Chinese troops go next?"
At this time, the messy hair of Mo Cai no longer looks like a nobleman.
Hearing King Yu Cheng's call, he had no choice but to step forward and say, "King Yu Cheng, this, I really don't know!" ”
However, King Yu Cheng opened his eyes suddenly, stared at him and snorted heavily, "Huh? ”
A bloodthirsty momentum invisibly emanated from King Yu Cheng's body.
This momentum made Cai's knees weak, and he involuntarily knelt on the ground, and said, "Could it be that they know that they can't beat Yu Chengwang and you, and they have already run away?" ”
However.
For this answer, King Yu Cheng was very dissatisfied, and scolded directly: "Are you nobles like the capital so stupid? To run, he didn't run earlier? Do they need to wait for the king to besiege the city before they run? He also burned the 30,000 elite grain and grass of this king! ”
Hear this.
Mo Cai had no choice but to tremble and say: "My subordinates don't know, you said, this Han army is only 4,000 people, he burned our army's grain and grass, where can he run to hide?" ”
"Our army's grain and grass are set on the edge of the plank road, and the location of the plank road is in the middle of the Second Division City and Yucheng City."
"Could it be that he ran away and hid in Yucheng City?"
"You said Yu Chengcheng?" When King Yu Cheng heard this, he immediately stood up, his eyes lit up, and he muttered, "Soldiers are not tired of cheating."
"Not good!"
"This Han is going to raid this king Yu Chengcheng."
King Yu Cheng realized a terrible thing, and immediately shouted: "Pass on the king's order, march immediately, and return to Yu Chengcheng!" ”
“.”
“.”
Time goes back to a day ago.
After Huo Guang had a face-to-face conversation with King Yu Cheng, he had already figured out the temper and temperament of Dawanguo, the only character who could fight with the Han army.
This guy.
Too proud!
30,000 to 4,000 has already made him feel that he is sure to win.
However.
He didn't know that it took all his strength for a lion to fight a rabbit, not to mention that he was a full 4,000 soldiers and horses.
It's not.
After the conversation, he took off his armor and handed it to the only soldier left behind, pretending to be himself to confuse his opponent at the city gate.
As for himself, he led 4,000 soldiers and horses to dig through the cave and escaped straight out of the city.
After exiting the cave.
Zhao Daniu, who had been following him all the time, asked, "General, didn't we come to fight these barbarians, why do we want to avoid the edge?" ”
Huo Guang glanced at Zhao Daniu and said with a smile: "You want to say why you didn't fight, so you threw away your armor and fled, right?" ”
Zhao Daniu felt Huo Guang's gaze, immediately lowered his head, and said, "We have few people, and it doesn't mean that we can't beat them!" ”
However.
Huo Guang shook his head and said, "What if you can fight?" ”
"If you can beat it, you won!" Zhao Daniu said immediately.
Huo Guang said, "Win? Not to mention the enemy's 30,000 elites, and they are all full of food and drink, our soldiers are tired, how to win? ”
After Zhao Daniu was scolded, he had to lower his head and not speak.
Seeing this, Huo Guang continued: "This Dawan's Yucheng King is a person with some ability. Although our army was only 4,000, he still adopted the strategy of besieging but not attacking, which was a prudent measure. ”
"Ben Hou once read Sun Wubing's book, there are clouds on it, and if there are many soldiers, they will besiege, and if there are few soldiers, they will flee."
"With 4,000 to face 30,000 troops, it is 30,000 pigs, and it is enough to kill."
When Zhao Daniu heard this, he felt even more foggy, and said, "General, I don't understand the things in this military book." I just want to ask, since we don't fight, why do we come to guard the Second Division City? When the 30,000 enemy did not surround us, we just ran away with 4,000 brothers. ”
Hear this.
Huo Guang showed a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, and said, "Then Ben Hou asked you, what is the purpose of our coming to Dawan?" ”
Zhao Daniu scratched his head again and said, "General, didn't you say that Your Majesty's order asked you to come to war?" ”
Huo Guang nodded with a smile and said, "Yes, since His Majesty asked us to fight, why did we run away before?" We're going to have to fight! ”
Hear this.
Zhao Daniu was completely stunned by Huo Guang and said, "Huh? So whether to fight or not to fight! ”
Hear the words.
Huo Guang put away the smile on his face, showed a solemn look, and said slowly: "The so-called soldiers, treacherous!" ”
"Hit, of course you have to fight!"
"Still."
"Gotta hit their rear."
"King Yu Cheng led 30,000 elite soldiers to dispatch from the nest, and the garrison of Yu Cheng City must be empty. At this time, we raided Yu Chengcheng, and with Yu Chengcheng's troops, we would definitely not be able to hold it. ”
"Yu Cheng is not like Ershi City, it is the lair of King Yu Cheng, and there is no worry about eating and drinking inside."
"Wait for our army to attack Yucheng, eat and drink enough, and recuperate."
"At that time!"
"When King Yu Cheng reacted and came back, his soldiers tossed back and forth, and they were already exhausted."
"At that time, it was time to change the offense and defense."
After Huo Guang explained in detail, although Zhao Daniu was stupid, he also understood something, and immediately laughed.
As long as.
He didn't think it was cowardly and ran away, so it was okay.
That's it.
Too cowardly in his behavior.
After the army marched for a while, Huo Guang suddenly saw many soldiers of King Yu Cheng staying on the edge of the plank road in the distance, and immediately waved his hand to signal the army to hide.
"It's strange, King Yu Cheng has set up heavy troops here, what are you guarding?" Huo Guang muttered a little, thinking about things.
Suddenly, my eyes lit up.
He guessed what it was!
"Could it be grain and grass?" Huo Guang snorted softly.
Then.
Zhao Daniu stepped forward and said, "General, if you don't leave, it's going to be dark." ”
"It's dark?" Huo Guang frowned slightly, and glanced at the sky, this side belongs to Dawan, which is the farthest distance reached by the Central Plains army during the Han Dynasty!
Unfamiliar places, unfamiliar roads, and dark are very dangerous things.
After thinking for a moment, Huo Guang immediately ordered: "Zhao Daniu! ”
"The subordinates are here." Zhao Daniu replied.
Huo Guang continued: "You lead two thousand soldiers and horses, wait here, and when it gets dark, launch a surprise attack on the enemy over there to see what the opponent is heavily guarding. ”
"If it is a baggage, grain and grass, what can be burned will be destroyed."
"Remember, don't be in love."
"When the enemy reacted, he withdrew his troops directly and rushed towards Yuchengcheng, if there are pursuers, Ben Hou will answer you."
Hearing Huo Guang's words, Zhao Daniu hurriedly responded and said, "No." ”
Forthwith.
Huo Guang only led two thousand men and horses straight to Yu Chengcheng to kill, and when they arrived at Yu Chengcheng, the sky had already darkened.
And this.
It was also the time that Huo Guang needed, and I saw that under Huo Guang's order, all the two thousand people changed into black clothes, and even if there were no black clothes, they all changed into inconspicuous clothes.
Yu Chengcheng is the lair of King Yu Cheng, and the solidity is not comparable to that of Ershi City.
Last time.
Li Guangli led tens of thousands of Han troops, and it was here that he was defeated by King Yu Cheng.
If the elite of Dawan is defending here, not to mention that Yucheng is solid, with only 2,000 soldiers and horses led by Huo Guang, in this Yucheng City, I am afraid that it will not even be able to set off the waves.
But.
This time and that time.
In Yucheng City, the garrison is empty, not to mention the dispatch of the elite army, and its garrison force, I am afraid that no one will think of giving them a way to draw salaries from the bottom of the kettle.
Of course.
Even if it was a night attack, Huo Guang only had 2,000 soldiers and horses here, and the city gate was closed, no matter what, it was impossible to kill it from the front.
Huo Guang found a soldier who could climb, and after climbing up, he asked him to drop the rope.
The soldiers climbed into the city along the ropes.
And then again.
Huo Guang also gave an order.
"After entering the city, kill the patrol first, change their clothes, mix in and mess with their ears and eyes, use the white sleeves as the number, identify their own people, and the rest, kill !!" (End of chapter)
