Chapter 29: The Beacon Heroes (16)

In the handsome account, Xiang Zhuang stood in front of the map with his hands in his hands, preparing for so long, this battle is finally about to start.

All the generals stood on both sides, staring at Xiang Zhuang with expectant eyes, Kong Ji on the side was also excited, judging from the news brought back by the flying pigeon yesterday, Zhou Sheng had persuaded the widow, and the widow also led the army to retreat south, in this way, the East Vietnamese army without Zhu was alone, relying only on Wusheng County, they could not become the climate, and at this time they wanted to take the end of the world, it was impossible.

Now it is only Xiang Zhuang's order that the Eastern Chu army will pounce on the East Vietnamese army camp like a tiger.

Xiang Zhuang was also pondering, after a long time, Xiang Zhuang finally came back to his senses, he looked at everyone resolutely, and ordered: "Hou Kaige, Lotte, you two are each handsome and elite soldiers, and they will divide their troops from the north and south gallops and march towards Wusheng County." ”

The two walked out of the queue and sang loudly, at this time, Xiang Zhuang looked at Ding Gu, Li Yan, Li Hong and Kong Ji, and Lang Ran ordered: "You follow the main force of this king Shuai from the west of the main road, this king must have a good meeting with Wuzhu, see what he can do, dare to underestimate my Eastern Chu State." ”

Everyone hugged their fists and sang promises, turned around and walked out of the tent, at this time, Xiang Zhuang returned to the map again, carefully looked at the map, the deployment of troops has been deployed, there is no suspense in this battle, must kill the Dongyue country fear, in order to ensure the peace of Jiangdong in the next few years, and Wuzhu, Xiang Zhuang will not easily let him die in battle, if there is no Zhu to die in battle, the land of Minyue will be a monopoly, and the Dongou country will rise to one side, becoming the external trouble of Jiangdong, only let them check and balance each other, in order to make Xiang Zhuang have no worries, go all out to the northto participate in the dispute over the Central Plains.

Just when Xiang Zhuang was pondering, there was a faint sound of military trumpets outside the tent, and the low sound of war drums was also slowly beating, which was the order to go out.

A personal guard hurriedly walked into the handsome account and bowed his hand to Xiang Zhuang: "King, the war horse is ready, we can set off." ”

Xiang Zhuang nodded, picked up the helmet and sword on the shelf and prepared to leave, Cao Feng on the side hurriedly picked up the cloak and draped it on Xiang Zhuang's body, and personally recorded the bond for him, the two looked at each other for a moment, Xiang Zhuang patted Cao Feng's shoulder: "You are also experienced in the battlefield, I don't want to tell you much, you just have to hold it tightly." ”

Cao Feng nodded slightly, Xiang Zhuang took Cao Feng's hand and strode out of the tent.

……

At this time, the East Vietnamese Army was also urgently assembling troops, and the Su Shao suddenly retreated south, which greatly surprised Wu Zhu's expectations, so that there were enemy troops in front of Wu Zhu, and no reinforcements in the back, and they were in an extremely passive situation, and now the East Vietnamese Army is in urgent need of food and grass, if there is no supply, the East Vietnamese Army will be unstable, and there may even be a mutiny.

If the Eastern Chu army launched an attack on itself in the past few days, not only would it not be able to hold it for a long time, but it would also be easy to be driven out of the wounded by the Eastern Chu army, so if they retreated to the east, they would inevitably pass through Damo, although Damo had experienced nearly a month of offensive and defensive battles, but it was not difficult for them to block their retreat, as long as they set up ambushes in the Longshan area, even if they could not stop themselves, the East Vietnamese army would suffer heavy losses.

Of course, if everything is accurate in their budget, the Eastern Chu Army may not take advantage.

But at this time, Wuzhu has no intention of going on with the Eastern Chu army, and the thing he regrets the most is that he did not listen to Nado's advice, withdraw from the black wound as soon as possible, and return to Dongye, he will wait for the opportunity to move again, and then fight the Chu State, and at this time he wants to retreat with his whole body, Wuzhu knows very well that Xiang Zhuang will not give him this opportunity again.

The horn sounded from time to time in the barracks, and a team of cavalry and infantry galloped out of the camp and marched northward, headed by Mengyang, who led an army of 20,000 under the order of Wuzhu to block the main force of the Eastern Chu Army advancing westward, ensuring that Wuzhu had enough time to retreat south, and when Wuzhu stood at the head of the city to check the soldiers in the barracks, on the gallop road under the city tower, Mengyang came on a horse, and saluted Wuzhu under the city tower: "Take care of the king, the last general will leave." ”

After Mengyang finished speaking, Lerma galloped eastward, looking at the back of Mengyang's departure, Wu Zhu felt a little lost, this battle was fought to this point, completely beyond his expectations, the original light enemy led to today's bleakness.

Soon, the general Teddy came to Wuzhu's side, and seeing that Wuzhu was still staring into the distance, he couldn't help but sigh lightly, and arched his hand: "King, the army has been prepared, let's set off, if we don't leave, I'm afraid that the Eastern Chu army will not be able to leave after a while!" ”

Wuzhu was interrupted by Teddy's contemplation, he turned around and looked at the Wushu City, and then looked at the tens of thousands of troops who were slowly departing, Wuzhu felt sour in his heart, and tears couldn't help but fall, after a long time, Wuzhu sighed lightly and ordered: "Order the three armies, accelerate forward!" ”

……

The vanguard of the Eastern Chu army was led by Ding Gu himself, 30,000 cavalry galloped on the gallop road, the gallop road was very wide, the cavalry group could run wildly, and the distance behind them was about ten miles, it was the main force of Xiang Zhuang, the main force was as many as 50,000 people, and it was also the largest battle launched since Xiang Zhuang ascended the altar and became king.

The Eastern Chu State is not without the strength to exterminate the Dongyue Kingdom, this Ding Gu is very clear, he also knows that it is impossible to completely eliminate the Dongyue, the army as powerful as the Qin State did not exterminate the Yue State in the real sense, but gradually recognized their status, but they were no longer allowed to step into the land of Wuhui, but Ding Gu couldn't understand that although the Central Plains was also full of beacons, the defense was unstable, how could Xiang Zhuang feel at ease in the Northern Expedition?

'Let the two factions check and balance!' Ding Gu suddenly thought of what Xiang Zhuang had said in the past few days, and he finally understood that perhaps Xiang Zhuang used more clever means, rather than spending financial resources and manpower to conquer Dongyue, it was better to let them check and balance internally, and give Xiang Zhuang more time to develop northward and completely participate in the battle of the Central Plains.

Ding Gu figured this out, he was no longer entangled in his heart, at this time, he suddenly remembered the faint sound of the horn in the distance, Ding Gu was interrupted to ponder, he looked into the distance, and the deputy general Li Yan on the side pointed to the distance and said: "Look, is that the East Vietnamese Army?" ”

Ding Gu took a closer look on the horse, but the distance was too far for him to see clearly, so he turned around and called a few relatives and went straight to the dirt mountain not far away.

The earth mountain is not high, but you can climb high and look far away, Ding Gu rode his horse on the earth mountain, he saw that the front was full of East Vietnamese troops, they were menacing, but they did not make an offensive posture, is this Wuzhu want to fight to the death?

Ding Gu thought so, he reined in his horse and returned to the military formation, at this time the Eastern Chu army had stopped advancing, and Li Yan was arranging archers and shield soldiers to defend in formation, at this time, Ding Gu came to Li Yan's side, he said in a little surprise: "Why do I think something is wrong?" ”

Li Yan had just finished arranging the defense, so he looked at Ding Gu with a smile and asked, "What did General Ding see?" ”

"The East Vietnamese Army is menacing, and judging from my many years of experience in marching, they are no less than tens of thousands, but why did they not attack after the horn was blown for so long and the war drums were beaten several times? This is not like the style of the East Vietnamese Army in the past. ”

Li Yan couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this, he immediately pointed to the dirt mountain just now and said, "Let's go, let's go and have a look." ”

The two of them galloped away with more than ten generals, and after coming to Tushan, Li Yan set up his eyes on the horse and looked into the distance, the East Yue Army was indeed menacing, but they seemed to have no intention of launching an attack on the East Chu Army, at this time, Li Yan was surprised: "Are they bluffing?" ”

"I don't see it." Ding Gu shook his head, and at this time, Li Yan was surprised: "No, they want to escape!" ”

"Running away?" Ding Gu was inexplicable by Li Yan's sudden words, but Li Yan had no intention of explaining to Ding Gu, he turned around and looked at a tiger guard general, and ordered: "You lead 5,000 troops, charge the enemy formation for me!" ”

Tiger Weilang will be called Li Pet, has participated in the anti-Qin campaign many times, has a lot of military achievements under the command of Xiang Zhuang, and is promoted to the Tiger Weilang general, and now belongs to the Black Eagle Army under the command of Ding Gu, at this time Li Yan's general, Li Chong waved the spear in his hand and went straight to the main formation.

At this time, Li Yan looked at Ding Gu, who had a suspicious face, and said with a smile: "If my guess is correct, the East Vietnamese Army has already begun to retreat, and the reason why he has deployed tens of thousands of suspicious soldiers here is to confuse us, block our advance, and create time for the retreat of the large army." ”

Ding Gu thought for a while, and nodded slightly: "What General Li said is reasonable, I should immediately mobilize troops and break through their defensive line." ”

Ding Gu was just about to leave, but Li Yan smiled and grabbed his reins, and then pointed to the east and said, "The king's troops are almost here, why don't you and I wait for a while, and it's not too late to send troops to fight after the king comes." ”

"General Li's words are wrong, the generals will go to battle, and the vanguard is in front, how can there be a reason to avoid the enemy when encountered?" Ding Gu didn't quite agree with Li Yan's idea, but Li Yan smiled unhurriedly: "I have already sent five thousand people to test their strength, you and I can just wait and watch the battle here, don't worry." ”

"This ......" Ding Gu was even more anxious, he couldn't see what medicine was sold in Li Yan's gourd, but it was not good to leave for a while, just when Ding Gu hesitated, a rumbling war drum sounded in the distance, this is the war drum beaten in the Eastern Chu army formation, the drum was thunderous, the sound shook the four fields, and soon, there was a low horn sound, and the horn whimpered in the air, at this time, from the Eastern Chu army formation, the shield soldiers and archers quickly flashed out of a one-person-wide gap, and slowly galloped out of the gap A team of cavalry, the cavalry was as many as 5,000 people, and he was the first general, Wearing silver armor, he is Li Pet, who has just been ordered to go on the expedition.

It wasn't until the cavalry slowly walked out of the formation that the gap flashed out by the shield soldiers suddenly closed, and the archers made up for it behind, at this time, Li Pet had raised his spear, he turned around and looked at the five thousand cavalry, and shouted loudly: "Brothers, raise soldiers for a thousand days, use soldiers for a while, this is the time for the country to use us, in front, is the military formation of the East Vietnamese Army, they loot and wounded, slaughter innocents, and rape women, causing the harmonious society that our Eastern Chu State has just established to collapse in an instant, for our country, for our family to live a more comfortable life, Kill with me, regain the black wounds, and regain the dignity that belongs to the officers and soldiers of our Eastern Chu Army! ”

Li Chong's words made the soldiers enthusiastic, they raised their weapons one after another, and under Li Chong's order, five thousand cavalry rushed to the East Vietnamese army formation a thousand steps away like a flood.
