Chapter 107: The Trap
Chu Yunshen only led 10,000 horses, bypassed Sheng Shiyuan's camp, and went straight to the rear. All plans are only within the expected range, and once they exceed the expectations, it is a trap. What he was facing was a trap. Although Sheng Shiyuan is not a peerless genius like Ba Niu, he can be regarded as a dragon and phoenix among people. How can you not take strict precautions in your own rear? Poor Chu Yunshen was loyal and patriotic, and finally became a senseless victim.
His army reached its destination without encountering any enemies. This made Chu Yunshen feel a little strange, but the matter had come to this point, only forward, not backward. He climbed up the hill and saw a bright light in the distance. He waved his hand to the general and motioned for everyone to bend down.
The enemy doesn't seem to be numerous, but the patrol is so tight that there is little chance to take advantage of it. Chu Yunshen couldn't help but sigh, and said silently: "The good talent of the prosperous world, the well-being people are not blessed, and they have lost such good help!" He sighed for a long time, and when he saw that there was no opportunity to take advantage of it, he had to retreat to the valley.
The general who guarded the grain on the mountain was Sheng Yilun, the most profitable deputy general under Sheng Shiyuan.
"The general is really clever, Chu Yunshen is here in person, everyone, how should we deal with it?"
The generals had already prepared, just waiting for Sheng Yilun's order. Sheng Yilun naturally knew it, so he didn't say more. He immediately commanded: "The enemy is numerous, if we go head-to-head, we may not be able to win, and if we divide our troops to sneak attack, the number is not enough, so we can only take advantage of tricks."
The generals saw that he was confident, and no one dared to speak. Sheng Yilun continued: "The enemy has more than 10,000 people, and our army only has 3,000, but they are attacking from the back, and they are coming at a moment's notice, and there is no long-term plan. If we can hold on, they will not succeed. However, the general ordered me to wait here, not to shrink down for defense, but to make a difference. With my suggestion, when we face off tomorrow, we can win by surprise, I don't know what the generals think?"
Everyone agreed in unison: "The general is in charge of orders, and his subordinates are careful to follow the teachings"!
Sheng Yilun was overjoyed in his heart, and immediately sent troops to prepare to give Chu Yunshen a dismount in the next day's battle. Chu Yunshen didn't know that the enemy had discovered his tracks, and he thought that he was hiding well. So they did not set up camp, but hid themselves in the woods.
"The enemy's stronghold, which is the highest point here, is no longer possible for us to occupy the terrain advantage. My suggestion is to conduct a raid." Chu Yunshen said to the generals: "Judging from the visual inspection, the enemy's strength is far inferior to ours, as long as the timing is right, the certainty of victory is still relatively large."
The generals are all obedient people, so naturally they will not say much, and only his cronies dare to speak.
"Your Highness, the last general thinks that it is better to withdraw the troops." General Zuo Chu Xiuyuan stood up and said: "The enemy is obviously already on guard, even if we have the advantage in numbers, but the enemy is condescending, it is difficult for us to take advantage, but there is a danger of defeat." The subordinates thought that instead of taking risks, it was better to get out of the way. Save the strength of the present and calculate it for the future".
Chu Yunshen's general, Xiao Bingtian, also agreed with him: "What General Zuo said is extremely true! Although Sheng Shiyuan is not Li Jiuyuan, his military talent is far better than that of ordinary generals. Since he expected us to attack his rear, he must have (1) sent reliable men to defend it. If we attack rashly, it will not only be difficult to win, but it is very likely to lead to annihilation. It's better to retreat for the time being, in order to move later."
Although Chu Yunshen is not a general, he is still a smarter person in the end, and he knows the truth of following advice, so when he heard his close relatives say this, he was naturally ready to listen to their advice and retreat. But as the prince's competitiveness, he still felt a little sad in his heart, and he couldn't help but sigh, looked at everyone in frustration and said, "Is there no possibility of winning?"
As soon as he asked, there was immediately someone who responded to the peace, and General Zuo You Hun rose up resolutely and said loudly: "The enemy is only three or five thousand people, and I have more than 10,000 people, and the disparity in strength is so great, how can we retreat?" In the opinion of his subordinates, it is better to directly attack, clash head-on with the enemy, win by numbers, and retreat if he is not victorious."
Since Chu Yunshen has arrived here, it is already difficult to accept it logically if he wants to retreat without a fight, not to mention that he is the prince of Kangle, this difference in identity makes it difficult for him to compare with ordinary people.
"Lone also felt that he could fight. However, head-to-head is not the best way to go. I thought that I could carry out a surprise attack in the middle of the night tomorrow night. If you can't win completely, you can also take a moment's work. Win and retreat, you will live up to this trip, I don't know why you think such as"?
These people who came with him were basically Chu Yunshen's cronies, and they had always figured out his thoughts extremely thoroughly, and now that he said this, they knew that they had made up their minds, so they agreed in unison.
Chu Yunshen saw that everyone had no objections, so he began to distribute military horses, and asked the troops to be divided into three ways to attack Sheng Yilun's grain and grass camp.
Sheng Yilun had already made preparations and waited for him to come. On this night, when he heard the shouts, he immediately retreated the army to the top of the mountain, condescendingly, and fired head-on with a strong bow and crossbow, suppressing Chu Yunshen's attack one by one outside the camp. As soon as the morning dawned, he put on a counterattack posture when he left, and with the combination of shield soldiers and archers, he steadily advanced forward, so that the Kangle people had to retreat step by step.
Sheng Yilun watched the formation of the Kangle people being flattened little by little, and he was extremely happy in his heart. When he saw where Chu Yunshen's banner was, he immediately sent cavalry to rush over from the mountain. The Kangle people were already in a state of desperate resistance, and when they were rushed by the cavalry like this, they were immediately disorganized. In an instant, it receded like a tide.
Chu Yunshen's rear army had not yet fully established itself, and was rushed by his own army, but he couldn't support it, and retreated backwards one after another.
"The sword and shield soldiers move forward, and the archers shoot their feet"! Chu Yunshen is the prince in the end, and his psychological quality is very strong, although he saw the defeat, he still tried to redeem it. But the people who had already retreated, no longer able to obey his command, collapsed like a flood that burst their banks, and fled down the mountain.
Chu Yunshen took out his clothes and personally killed several people, but he still couldn't control the situation, so he had to flee the way he came under the escort of the Praetorian Guards. Anxious like a lost dog, busy like a fish that has slipped through the net, in just a moment, he ran out for more than ten miles.
"What's ahead"? Seeing that the pursuers were getting farther away, Chu Yunshen slowed down, straightened his mind, and asked the sergeant next to him.
These people are also Kangle people, and when they came to the Akiyama Peninsula for the first time, how did they know about the island? Hearing the prince ask like this, only you look at me, I look at you, and I don't dare to answer.
"So, can anyone know the way they came"? He still had illusions about returning to his army. But none of these people knew the way back. However, his frustration did not last long, and Sheng Yilun soon appeared in front of him.
"The great prince of Kuaishou Chu Yunshen on the other side"? Sheng Yilun immediately intercepted his way with a horizontal knife, pointed with a knife, and asked loudly.
Chu Yun was deeply frightened, and he couldn't answer immediately by borrowing the soil, where was he still in the mood to answer his question? Sheng Yilun saw that no one answered, and asked loudly again: "Among the defeated army in front, there is His Royal Highness Chu Yunshen, the great prince of Kangle"?
Chu Yun had no choice but to lead the horse forward, and replied in a trembling voice: Is it "someone from Chu is here, who will come"?
Sheng Yilun saw that Chu Yunshen did not run away, and he was overjoyed, and he also took the horse forward, and said loudly: "In Xia Sheng Yilun, on the order of the general, I have been waiting for His Royal Highness the prince for a long time."
Chu Yun had no choice but to command the sergeants, strive to move forward, and fight to the death. So the two sides recorded the fierce confrontation in this narrow strip of land. The great prince has lived in the deep palace for a long time, and under the guidance of the masters, his martial arts are not weak. After Sheng Yilun became a famous general, he has been inherited from his family since he was a child, and his kung fu is even extraordinary. Two people come and go, fighting together, and it is difficult to distinguish the winner for a while.
If it was an ordinary confrontation, Sheng Yilun would not have much of a face, but now it was Chu Yunshen who fled, and he used it as a volley. In terms of mentality, the two people are fundamentally different. Chu Yunshen had no intention of fighting, and only wanted to escape, which caused him to not be able to fully play to his advantages, and he soon fell into disadvantage. The two of them fought to seventy or eighty rounds, and Sheng Yilun sold a flaw and deliberately vacated his chest. Chu Yunshen didn't know what the plan was, he raised the gun and stabbed it, but Sheng Yilun lightly flashed, snatched the head of his gun with his backhand, and took it into his arms, Chu Yunshen couldn't sit down and carved the saddle, and was caught by him.
