Chapter 150: Breaking the Zhou Division (I)
Gao Changgong is outside the camp of the Qi army. A faint bonfire was lit in the open wilderness, and several figures were in a circle, surrounded by barren grass.
After inspecting the camp, the main general Gao Changgong led the important generals of each army to discuss, and the location was very arbitrary. It's a shame that the Zhou army has been thrown far away by them, otherwise only one standard cavalry attack can wipe out a quarter of the generals of the Fenbei Qi army.
"Next, we're going to discuss the route for the next few days, and some of our previous arrangements should also come into play, what do you think?"
The warm fire shone on Gao Changgong's side face, and after taking off his armor, Gao Changgong didn't want to be as cold as on the battlefield, and looked very kind.
They had been marching with their army for three days, interspersed with breaking through the blockade of the Zhou army, and their scales were covered with loess and brown bloodstains.
At the moment, I am a little tired. Although it is a war seminar, it is also a time for everyone to relax, and Gao Changgong will not be too restrained at this time. Wei Xianggui also changed his sitting position, bent one leg and leaned back, stretching his sore back:
"General, we have withdrawn from Longmen to here these days, and if we continue to go on, it will be Wanchun......
"Yes, General, since the Zhou army entered Longmen, we have been retreating, we are very passive if we go on like this, when we are in Longmen, we can obviously fight with the Zhou army, why evacuate?"
This question shook out all the doubts that had accumulated in their hearts, if they simply couldn't beat the Zhou army, then naturally there would be no such a problem, but the fact is not that the Qi army couldn't beat the Zhou army, and the Qi army didn't fight the Zhou army seriously from the beginning.
From the beginning, Gao Changgong only symbolically resisted a few times, and then began to evacuate the Dragon Gate, and when retreating, they fought a few times on a small scale, and they won and lost each other, and the elite soldiers of Yuwen Hu didn't look very good......
I really don't understand what kind of medicine is sold in the general's gourd, if it is to lure Guo Rong over, it would be too far to run to Wanchun in one go.
Guo Rong is not worthy of them running around like this, 30,000 or 40,000 Qi troops were driven by Guo Rong's 20,000 people, and they are aggrieved when they think about it!
"......" threw the two sticks of firewood into the fire, Gao Changgong smiled, did not say a word, and looked unfathomable. You can't stand this? It seems that these days, Zhou Jun has indeed been beaten out of anger, hehe, it's good to have fire, this gas has to be held back anymore......"
When several Qi generals heard this, their eyes immediately lit up, and they all came over and asked cautiously: "General......, is it already planned by the Metropolitan Governor?" ”
According to Duan Shao's handwriting, he threw away more than a dozen cities and Yuwen Huhao's gamble in one go, and he really could do it. This is only from the Governor of the Metropolis, and they can rest assured...... It's just that Duan Shao's heart is too big when he does this, what if Yuwen Hu is like a bamboo after he captures the Dragon Gate?
Gao Changgong said: "This is not the general order of the metropolitan governor, this is my general order...... all the generals present were silent, Gao Changgong looked left and right, and said jokingly: "Why, as soon as I heard that it was not the general order of the metropolitan governor, I didn't want to listen to it now?" ”
"Uh......, no, the general misunderstood...... "Wei Xianggui arched his hand, "The last general and the others just think that your move is too much...... Well, do you think you should discuss it with the Metropolitan Governor first...... If we don't take advantage of Yuwenhu's unstable foothold, we will go back to the division and kill back, and it will be too late to ......"
"Kill back......" Gao Changgong pointed to the side of the guide and said: "Yuwen Hu's elite is exhausted, hundreds of thousands of people, do you kill ...... back, go back and be beaten?" ”
"Yuwen Hu can send troops to attack from multiple directions, and Longmen is a horn, no matter which direction Zhou Jun wants to fight, it will hit us."
"Taking a step back, even if we spend a huge amount of manpower and material resources to block Yuwen Hu, of course Yuwen Hu can't threaten Fenbei, but we can't threaten him......" Gao Changgong looked left and right, analyzing one by one, "If he doesn't enter Fenbei to fight with us, we will definitely not be able to protect the more than a dozen cities in Yiyang......"
"Didn't Deputy Governor Gao Yanzong go to rescue Yiyang a few days ago? At this time, the other side should have already handed it over......"
"At this time, if the main force of Yuwen Hu still does not come in, the deputy governor will be very passive, and Yuwen Hu will not be able to enter Fenbei, so he will fight Yiyang even harder, although we can't help anything, don't drag it back......"
"After all, Yiyang is the territory of Daqi, and it cannot be allowed to fall into the hands of foreign enemies." Gao Changgong clapped his hands and stood up.
"Yuwen Hu's main force has passed the Dragon Gate, he can't wait to recapture Fenbei, the first to bear the brunt is Wanchun and Huagu Jiangcheng, these three cities are connected into a line, as long as he can't break through our defense line, don't want to dye Zhiyang in a short time!"
"Although the general's plan is wonderful, but after all, we have a small number of people, and these three cities are far away, once the Zhou army comes to attack collectively, it is not difficult to cross the city and directly rush into the hinterland of our army......
"I don't defend the city to the ......, it's too difficult to defend the city, and it's not my forte," Gao Changgong said lightly: "I will only leave a few soldiers and horses to defend the city, and the rest ...... Fight with me! ”
"If the Zhou army wants to advance, we can't bypass these cities, and we have to defend it, but we can't bypass these cities...... We must not passively wait for them to pull us out one by one, we will take the initiative to attack and annihilate the Zhou army as much as possible. ”
"What do you mean?"
Several generals were stunned, Gao Changgong flicked his fingers at the ghost face hanging on his waist, and said:
"Let them stick to the city, we will break the situation with iron horses, intersperse back and forth between several cities, and raid the Zhou army......"
Take the city as the point, the surrounding area as the strategic space, and surround the point to help.
A veteran pondered for a long time and muttered, "It's just like this, it's not a long-term solution after all...... and the general thinks that the three cities may still not be able to hold ......."
Gao Changgong's first sentence made people stunned, "If you can't hold it, you won't keep it, if you can't hold it, we will retreat to Pinglong, and we can continue to consume the Zhou army......"
"Don't think about it so much, Yuwen Hu is not something we can eat in one bite, we will stop them to the death, and we will not have a turnaround when Zuo Xiang returns to the division, before that, we are all at a disadvantage......"
"What then? I heard that Hou Longen is besieging Yao Xiang in the army, what if this is ......? Several generals expressed concern.
Gao Changgong just said lightly: "Don't be afraid, the Metropolitan Governor has already arranged it in Yao Xiang, Hou Longen will definitely not be able to take Yao Xiang, what is the hurry?" ”
It took so much effort for Hu Luguang to take Yao Xiang at the beginning, not to mention him Hou Longen, is Yao Xiang really that easy to take?
"It is only a matter of time before we win this war, and the general trend is ...... our army"
Gao Changgong didn't know what to remember, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and the eyes of many people were dazzled in a flash:
"Where did Guo Rong go?"
"Judging from the military report that the last general just received, Guo Rong led the army to chase after our buttocks, and he wanted to eat our ...... in one bite."
"We're rushing to Wanchun, when will they catch up with us?"
"That is, the day after tomorrow, most of Guo Rongjun's soldiers are foot soldiers, no matter how much they hurry, it is estimated that they will not be able to arrive tomorrow."
Gao Chang bowed his head and said, "Okay, let's wait for him here, and escort Yuwen with a meeting gift ...... first!" ”
Gao Changgong's military order was carried out at the first time, and the Qi army did not retreat to Wanchun, but camped in a wilderness.
Team after team of scouts were sent out to spy on the intelligence of the Zhou army, and the military reports arrived at the Chinese army's tent one after another, "General Yu, Guo Rongjun continues to drive this way, and now it is less than eighty miles!" "General Yu, we have just intercepted and killed four teams of scouts of the Zhou army, who are from the southwest and west respectively, and we feel suspicious, so we have come here to report to the general...... "Report to the general, the Zhou army has stopped marching, as if it is waiting and ......"
Gao Changgong is as immobile as a mountain, as the commander of the first army, he must know any wind and grass within a hundred miles at any time.
"General, in addition to Guo Rong, did Yuwen Hu send someone else?" One of the generals was worried, feeling that things had gone a little more than expected.
Gao Changgong snorted and said: "No, I sent out a total of twenty teams of scouts, there are thousands of people, and even the movements of Longmen Yuwen Hu are under my control, if Yuwen Hu has other arrangements, then how can I not know?" ”
“…… There is only one possibility, that is, Guo Rong has sensed that something is wrong and knows that he can't beat us, so he is suspicious. ”
The surrounding generals thought about it, they were all relieved, and said with a smile: "It's no wonder that Yuwen Protector trusts him, this person really has some skills." ”
"Earlier, we heard that Zuo Xiang had defeated him many times, and we thought that Guo Rong was just a mortal ......"
"Guo Rong is really good, he is not bad compared to Tian Hong and Yang Fu, but unfortunately, he met a general......"
Gao Changgong is the sharpest spear in Daqi, and when it comes to siege and field battles, even Zuo Xiang does not dare to boast that he can defeat him.
The genius general on the Zhou army's side that can be compared to Gao Changgong is the Gongyu Wenxian of the Qi State...... It's a pity that he was escorted to Chang'an by Yuwen to ask for guilt, otherwise these two famous generals will inevitably burst out into a brilliant duel! Want...... It's going to be exciting.
Gao Changgong rubbed his fingertips against the fangs of the ghost face, and said, "He has already entered our attack range, even if he reacts, it will be useless...... Gather 3,000 iron horsemen, and we will rush to the camp of the Zhou army overnight! ”
The night breeze blew in the wilderness, and the clouds obscured the moonlight, and even the stars could not be seen. In the camp of the Zhou army, the patrolling soldiers walked back and forth vigilantly around the camp, dark and swarthy, and could not see anything.
Guo Rong tossed and turned in the big tent, unable to sleep, he was very sure that he had fallen into Gao Changgong's trap.
Gao Changgong fled all the way, and now he is finally going to be exposed and knifed?
For this reason, he sent many people back to Longmen to ask Otsuka Zai for help, hoping that the help would come soon......
In the dark night, everything was quiet, nothing could be heard except the muffled sound of the breeze blowing through the tent, Guo Rong tried to close his eyes to make himself sleep, and suddenly he got up from the couch - this is not the sound of the wind!
"- Qi army night attack! Qi army night attack! There were screams of exhaustion from the camp on three sides, and Guo Rong drew his sword and stepped out of the camp barefoot.
"What's going on?!" Guo Rong lifted the curtain and ascended to the lookout, and there was a small commotion at the three camp gates, and the sparks of torches splashed everywhere and set the camp tent on fire. More and more Zhou troops poured towards the place where the riots were taking place.
Guo Rong sighed and sighed secretly that he had already taken precautions.
Suddenly, in front of his eyes, a flaming feathered arrow broke through the darkness and rose from the horizon on that side......
Guo Rong's pupils shrank, leaned on the railing with one hand, and subconsciously leaned over and looked farther away. It was like a basin of ice water poured down, and it was cold from head to foot......
