Chapter 854 "Down with Fan"
Luo Rucai's nickname is "Old Cao Cao".
But in Zhang Xianzhong's eyes, he belongs to a mouse - treacherous and sleek, just like him Zhang Xianzhong.
In the joint venture for more than a year, Luo Rucai has always maintained a distance from Zhang Xianzhong and did not give Zhang Xianzhong a chance to consume him.
In the face of the battle of life and death, Luo Rucai showed first-class combat power.
The two worked together to conquer the border forts that Shao Jiechun sent troops to defend one by one.
defeated Zhang Zuokai, led his troops to break through Jingbao, and arrived in Dachang.
Dachang is located in the northern part of Wushan County and is an ancient county founded in the Jin Dynasty.
Zhang Xianzhong broke through Dachang and ordered the rich merchants in the county to be killed, and then recruited a group of landless people.
For a time, chickens and dogs jumped in Dachang City.
In the county office, Zhang Xianzhong sat on the chair where the old man of the yamen sits, rested his legs on the table, and ate the fruit leisurely.
Luo Rucai walked into the yamen, saw Zhang Xianzhong at a glance, stepped forward and said: "Eight kings, all the big merchants in Dachang have been killed by us, but the food is not enough to eat, we have to find the next place." ”
"Where do you think it's appropriate?" Zhang Xianzhong asked while eating.
"To the north of Dachang is Daning, it's suitable for us to grab it."
"Not there."
"Why?"
"Shao Jiechun is chasing us with two vicious dogs, Zhang Ling and Qin Liangyu, Daning is too close to here. Finally conquered Daning, they rushed to us and made us dumplings. ”
Although he has never studied sports warfare, Zhang Xianzhong has mastered the essence of sports warfare with his talent.
Daning County is today's Wuxi County, located in the northwest of Dachang County, with a straight-line distance of only 60 miles.
It is obviously not suitable for Zhang Xianzhong to fight sports warfare.
Luo Rucai thought for a moment and asked, "Where do you think it's appropriate?" ”
"Open the county!" Zhang Xianzhong said confidently.
"You're crazy, it's hundreds of miles away from us."
As soon as Luo Rucai spoke, he suddenly understood something, "It turns out that you want to divert the tiger from the mountain and then divide and surround it." ”
"That's what it means."
Zhang Xianzhong sat up straight, pointed to the map on the table and said, "Zhang Ling's soldiers are the weakest, we want to divide and surround him." If you want to attack Qin Liangyu again, you must wipe out all her 30,000 white pole soldiers. ”
"Good means! Do you already have a suitable location? ”
"Yes. Look, here! ”
Luo Rucai looked down and saw that the place where Zhang Xianzhong's finger was pointed was called Bamboo Mushroom Ping.
In ancient times, all place names with the word "ping" were mostly flat land in the mountains.
Zhufuping is located in the north of Kuizhou Mansion, and Zhang Ling and Qin Liangyu, who have received a small amount of supplies, are very likely to set off from here to intercept Zhang and Luo who are heading to Kaixian.
This is also a trap set by Zhang Xianzhong for them.
Zhang Xianzhong made a plan, so he sent a large number of spies to explore in the direction of Kaixian.
In this way, Shao Jiechun mistakenly thought that Zhang Xianzhong was going to attack the rich Kaixian.
Shao Jiechun really hit the plan and sent Zhang Ling and Qin Liangyu to lead the army north quickly.
Zhang Ling's 5,000 Sichuan army elites, Qin Liangyu's 30,000 white pole soldiers, walking on the mountain road, will inevitably pull out a longer distance.
For the sake of supply, the two armies did not act together, but were relatively separated.
Soldiers, baggage, etc. whirled along the mountain road.
All fell into Zhang Nengqi's eyes, and he quickly left with the spies.
"Okay, this old boy has finally fallen for our old man's evil!"
Zhang Xianzhong got the news in the old camp and rubbed his hands in surprise.
After a while, he said to Luo Rucai: "Old Cao Cao, you lead the base camp to surround the bamboo mushroom flat early tomorrow morning and cut off all the old things from the outside. ”
"There are 5,000 elites under the old thing, and I'm afraid I can't resist it alone."
Luo Rucai was a little reluctant.
"You are really not happy to do things, we Lao Tzu has to face 30,000 white pole soldiers, but you only deal with 5,000 'bullshit' miscellaneous soldiers."
"Okay. But I'm afraid that the siege won't last long, after all, they are all brothers who have been fighting for a long time, and you know my details. ”
"Don't worry, we won't watch you have anything. Once the white pole soldier is defeated, we Lao Tzu will work with you to destroy the old thing. ”
"A word?"
"It's a deal!"
The two shook hands and made a formal commitment.
It is a matter of life and death, Zhang Xianzhong did not cheat, and directly took out his core troops.
The next day, at the time of Chen, Luo Rucai led the whole battalion to surround the Zhujiping cottage.
Not only Luo Rucai came, but there were other small leaders of the peasant army who were not qualified to join forces and only followed Zhang Luo and the two of them.
The mountains were full of their people, and they only frightened the defenders on the bamboo fungus lawn.
Most of the so-called elite Sichuan soldiers are pikemen who can't eat enough, don't even have armor, and don't even have pants to wear.
In the face of the peasant army that spread all over the mountains and roared to the sky, timidity was expected.
So, they hid in the humble camp and did not dare to move.
On the other side, Qin Liangyu learned that Zhang Ling was trapped, and hurriedly urged the white pole soldiers to rescue.
The white pole soldiers are known for their bravery with a spear in each hand, and they form a spear formation during battle.
A long pole made of sturdy white wood, with a bladed hook on the top and a hard iron ring on the bottom, which can be cut and pulled during battle, and the ring can be used as a hammer weapon.
When necessary, dozens of spears can be used as a tool to climb the wall over the mountain, and the cliff can be climbed instantly, which is very suitable for mountain combat.
However, unlike Yang Chengying's early second battalion of water and fire, restricted by financial resources, most of the 30,000 white pole soldiers had no armor except for more than 1,000 elites.
And Yang Chengying later invented the spear formation, with the cavalry and artillery three-dash line tactics.
The Tusi soldiers obviously can't reach this level.
In the face of the white pole soldiers, Zhang Xianzhong showed respect for the strong enemy and performed the tactic of "defeating Fan".
The so-called "defeat of Fan" is actually a tactic of luring the enemy by deception of a small group of peasant troops, luring the white pole soldiers into the encirclement, and then encircling them on all sides.
Qin Liangyu, an old lady who was anxious to save people, really hit the plan.
After defeating a peasant army, he pursued the peasant army into the valley.
The peasant army ambushed in all directions, throwing stones or rolling logs at the white-pole soldiers in the valley.
At the same time, the crossbowman fired at the white pole soldier.
The white pole soldiers, who lacked armor, were in disarray.
The condescending Zhang Xianzhong sensed the arrival of the fighter plane, waved the flag in his hand, and ordered Zhang Kewang, who had been waiting for a long time, to lead a large group of cavalry from north to south, and take the opportunity to rush over.
The white pole soldiers who were in chaos couldn't resist it at all, like birds frightened and frightened beasts, scattered and fled, unable to stop it.
Thanks to Qin Liangyu's hundreds of elites, they all have war horses, desperately protecting Qin Liangyu to fight their way out of the encirclement.
The banner and the seal are all lost.
After meeting with the 3,000 soldiers in the rear team, everyone carefully counted and found that it was too late if they didn't leave, so they had to lead the army to retreat.
At this time, Qin Liangyu, who had snow-white hair, looked back at the bamboo mushroom and had tears in his eyes.
She knew that after this battle, the Shizhu Tusi soldiers were no longer capable of dealing with the thief army and did their best for the court.
Zhang Xianzhong relied on the momentum after the big victory to attack Zhang Ling, who was trapped in Zhuyiping.
