Lei Lan and Wu Tong are equally famous, and they are both rare young talents in Jiaozhi.

Zhang Yiping led an army of 50,000 to the expedition, and naturally there were other partial generals.

Lei Lan's 8,000 people are the vanguard of the army, responsible for exploring the road and exploring the reality of the Han army.

Eight thousand soldiers and horses marched in a hurry, all the way to Vung Tau Port a hundred miles away.

However, at this time, a detective horse rode alone to report and brought Zhang Yiping's message.

"General Zhang Yiping has something to say to the little one, and told the general."

"He said that the Han army has been stationed in Vung Tau Port for a long time, and the army is trapped by poisonous insects, so it will definitely be wary of our army taking advantage of the weakness."

"In this way, most of the Han army will set up ambushes along the way to block our army's advance."

"General Lei still needs to pay more attention, be careful and be on guard, don't fall into an ambush."

Hearing this, Lei Lan couldn't help frowning.

It's not that he doesn't believe Zhang Yiping's words.

General Zhang's ability is well known to the civil and military forces of Jiaozhi State.

Although I don't know a single big character, and the message is always an oral message, I can't hold a pen, and the edict has to be read and listened to, but he is indeed a natural talent.

It's also an interesting fact.

It has to be traced back to Zhang Yiping's childhood.

Zhang Yiping is a native of Jiaozhi, but his bloodline is not so pure, and he was born to local aborigines and Han people.

The family was poor and never became literate.

Later, in a mountain fire, Zhang Yiping relied on his bravery and rushed into the fire to save the county order, which was appreciated and had the qualifications to be promoted.

It's just that he still can't read.

Such a general who is not very literate, needs someone to read to him on weekdays, has a serious personality, is calm and introverted, and does not talk much, and can almost be described as boring or even gloomy.

However, it can convince the generals in Jiaozhi State, and even more let Xiangguo, who is full of economic and literary talents, be willing to cede military power to him.

It shows its ability.

Lei Lan came back to his senses, since General Zhang said that the Han army might set up an ambush, then he had to be even more vigilant.

He summoned the horse and asked:

"Where are we on the march?"

The spy replied:

"General, further along, it's Wu Tu Gu."

"Hmm"

Lei Lan answered, his face a little more nervous.

After the Wutu Valley, it is not far from Vung Tau Port.

And the terrain of this valley is narrow, half mountain stream, half mud road.

Mountain streams are not pedestrian-friendly, while dirt paths are muddy and difficult to navigate.

If the Han army plans to set up an ambush, this is a good place.

In the valley, there is only a small path between mountain streams and mud roads, which can be passed by soldiers and horses.

If it is used for ambush, it will inevitably cause losses to the passing Jiaozhi soldiers and horses.

Can.

How many people can the Han army send to ambush?

Lei Lan thought hard, according to Gao Xiangguo's calculations, the Han army was now plagued by poisonous insects.

Even if there is no fear for life, it is inevitable that you can only recuperate.

Even if you can still put together some fighting troops, how many can you have?

How much combat power is left of these barely able Han troops?

Jiaozhi is hot and humid, dense forests, and the strange poisonous insects are the great enemy of the Han army who have never set foot in Jiaozhi!

According to Gao Xiangguo's analysis, at this time, there were no more than a few thousand people in the Han army who could fight, so General Zhang led the army to break the enemy.

After thinking about the stakes, Lei Lan suddenly had an extremely bold idea in his heart.

Will be calculated, take the initiative to ambush.

He had 8,000 men on hand, and he could divide 2,000 men to lie in ambush at the mouth of the valley.

There are 6,000 people left, as long as they enter the valley carefully, even if they are ambushed, with the number of soldiers and horses that the Han army can fight, the loss will not be too great.

But if the Han army comes out of the valley and comes to chase after it, it will inevitably pay a great price.

If these thousands of Han army ambush soldiers can be taken down, the Han army camp in Vung Tau Port will not have many soldiers to fight.

It's almost unstoppable!

Then he took the momentum of a great victory and directly attacked the camp with the advantage of troops

This battle can be decided!

Lei Lan looked up at the clear sky, white clouds were floating, and a few birds flew by.

He had a decision in his mind.

That's it!

The Han army ambushed and chased out, and the living force of the Han army could be eliminated.

If the Han army does not pursue, its own losses will be smaller, and it will be able to take advantage of the battle between the two armies to explore the reality of the Han army.

Lei Lan immediately led the troops, starting with a hundred people, and the remaining 5,900 people, hanging a hundred steps away from the vanguard soldiers, and gradually penetrated deep into the Wutu Valley.

This is also to make his mid-volt seem more realistic.

There is clearly a valley that is easy to ambush, how can there be a general who does not send some vanguard soldiers and horses to explore the road first?

As Zhang Yiping guessed, Li Jingji chose to set up an ambush.

And the location of the ambush is exactly the same as Lei Lanchai, and it is here to Tu Valley.

Li Jingji and the 5,000 men in his hands were all ambushed in the middle of the Wutu Valley.

In this middle of the ambush, even if the enemy finds the ambush, it is difficult to retreat in time for a while.

Li Jingji waited for the opportunity, and saw that the hundred pioneers sent by Lei Lan were already approaching.

He saw the thousands of soldiers and horses behind the vanguard, and sighed in his heart, this feudal general still has some ability, and he even knows how to send people to explore the way.

Seeing that the vanguard was a few steps closer, Li Jingji immediately drew his blade and ordered:

"Soldiers, attack, kill!"

At the sound of the order, a rolling stone fell from the valley.

A mess of smashing had little effect.

Wutu Valley is not suitable for rolling stones, but the momentum is huge, which really increases the momentum of the Han army's ambush, and thousands of soldiers seem to have fallen into chaos.

"Kill!!"

The Han army under Li Jingji also shouted one after another, and immediately killed the vanguard of 100 people, and then killed the main force of thousands of people.

Seeing this, Lei Lan hurriedly turned around and fled from the entrance when he came and went.

"That's it?"

Li Jingji led his troops to chase and kill for a while, and even personally killed eleven people, but after all, there were too few soldiers and soldiers in his hands, and he failed to swallow all the soldiers and horses of Jiaozhi.

"Keep chasing??"

Seeing that he was approaching the valley mouth, Li Jingji thought for a moment, first sent a small soldier back to the camp to report the news, and then said:

"The art of war has clouds, avoid its sharpness, and hit its feelings."

"Now that the enemy is retreating in disarray, he has no fighting spirit, which is just right for our army to fight the chaos."

"Chase the enemy!! Kill!!! ”

Li Jingji continued to chase and kill the rout, while Lei Lan left many wounded along the way, took the rout, and fled in the direction of the ambush.

The Han army has been tricked!

Lei Lan was happy in his heart, my plan has been accomplished!

He did not hesitate to kill and unceremonious the Han soldiers to pursue continuously, and finally achieved his goal!

As long as they arrive at the place, they will be able to set up ambushes and counter-kills in their plans until they completely annex the Han army, the only living force.

But when he saw Li Jingji chasing into a dense forest, his heart suddenly jumped.

When looking around, the general who was being pursued stopped and raised his gun and shouted:

"Soldiers, attack, kill!"

Listening to this inexplicably familiar sentence, Li Jingji was horrified, but he still remained calm in the face of danger.

"Defend on both sides, the front army becomes the rear army, the rear army becomes the front army, and fight and retreat!!"

"Maintain the formation and kill the ambush soldiers who are impacting the formation first!"

Li Jingji took the lead, immediately killed an ambush soldier in Jiaozhi, and tried his best to mobilize the soldiers.

But after all, this defeat could not be avoided.

Lei Lan took advantage of the situation to fight back and pursued all the way.

It wasn't until a general stepped forward that he stopped slightly:

"General, will the Han army be defeated?"

Lei Lan was stunned.

The Han army was defeated, and then they were defeated, and then the Han army was defeated?

He really thought about it for a few breaths, after all, since Emperor Han ascended the throne, his record was really terrifying.

Even if the Han Emperor did not personally lead the troops this time, the generals who could be entrusted by the Han Emperor with important tasks must not be mediocre.

And he also saw that even if he was ambushed, that Han general could also reorganize his troops and horses in the chaos of the army, which could be called well-founded and quite capable.

"Probably not."

Lei Lan pondered secretly.

He saw it all just now, the defeat of the Han army is not like a fake, it really can't be true.

Besides, what is the purpose of deception?

Show the enemy weakness, arrogance of the enemy, and unpreparedness for attacking the enemy......

The purpose of all this must be based on the fact that in addition to this defeated army, the Han army also has a combatable army.

But does the Han army have it?

When poisonous insects were raging, the new force of the Han army was obviously just that.

Maybe even the Han Emperor was also infected with the disease, otherwise how could the one who led the troops be this strange general?

"Keep the pursuit!"

Lei Lan already had a plan in his heart, as long as he destroyed the only living force of this Han army, he had nothing to fear.

However, he also kept an eye on it and sent someone to report back to Zhang Yiping:

"You quickly report to General Zhang, and say that our troops and horses have killed and dispersed the combatable soldiers of the Han army, and you can let the general drive straight into the Han army camp in Vung Tau Port."

Not long after, someone had already reported back to Zhang Yiping, and Zhang Yiping heard someone read Lei Lan's battle report, but his heart was sudden.

"The Han army will definitely not be so easy to deal with."

"Even though the Han army is plagued by poisonous insects, our army has not figured out the reality of the Han army, if the Han army is strong, can it still hold up some fighting strength?"

"And those sailors, what if they are always on the ship and are plagued by poisonous insects on land?"

"If the Han army that chased the enemy after setting up an ambush and then ambushed and fled was deliberately done, wouldn't it be a trap?"

Zhang Yiping slapped his thigh, made a decision immediately, and ordered the army to pull out:

"Pass on the order of General Ben, march quickly, and support General Lei Lan!"

Zhang Yiping shook the long knife in his hand and sighed:

"Lei Lan is confused!"

"Li Jingji is confused!"

Liu Ke, who was in the Vung Tau Port camp, also received a message at this time.

This is especially Li Jingji's ambush, the ambush was successful, and he had to pursue the Jiaozhi rout.

Is this reliable?

If you want to lose, that's normal, just use your defeat to lure the enemy.

But if you want to win, it must be the enemy army who is deceiving and luring the enemy.

"But it's a defeat anyway."

Liu Ke didn't think much about it, Li Jingji not only lost a hundred battles, but also had a basis for advancing and retreating.

Even if he loses, it is unlikely to be a big defeat, but it is exactly what he wants, and it is good to send a thousand people to respond.

And a deception defeat is just right to lure the Jiaozhi soldiers to attack.

"Deliberately ambushed, and set up an ambush instead"

Liu Ke squinted, constantly examined the battlefield situation, and said to himself:

"It seems that the Jiaozhi general is quite bold, but I am afraid that after repelling Li Jingji, maybe he will come to attack the camp with a big victory."

"After all, in the eyes of the Jiaozhi side, most of the Han army died of illness at this time."

"After tasting the herbs, I have to focus my energy on the military."

Liu Ke's eyes flickered, and the chance to win was today.

He immediately called out and turned into rain:

"Spread my military order, don't sleep tonight, hide in the boat, and strictly prevent the enemy from attacking the camp."

"As always, pay attention to fire prevention"

——

There was a mist tonight.

Lei Lan personally led the remaining 7,000 soldiers and horses, with the rank of man, and the horse picked up the bell, and touched all the way to the Han army camp in Vung Tau Port, but no one found out.

"Kill!!"

The Jiaozhi soldiers lit the torches in their hands one after another, and followed Lei Lan to rush towards the Han army.

The attack camp was different from conventional warfare, and it was necessary to cause chaos by burning the camp, and then slowly reap the lives of the Han army.

Lei Lan took the lead and broke through the useless guards of the Han army.

But after rushing into the camp, he saw more than 100 people in the center of the camp, beating gongs and drums.

Then all kinds of fire extinguishing equipment came out, and most of the torches in their hands were extinguished at once.

Then there were countless Han soldiers on the periphery shouting, killing Lei Lan and his subordinates.

"It's not good, it's !! trick"

Lei Lan shouted and hurriedly commanded the soldiers and horses to withdraw from the camp.

However, he was not as calm as Li Jingji, and he was already extremely flustered.

In the dark night, the generals were in chaos, and the subordinates were naturally in chaos, but it was their own people who blocked their people's retreat, and it was difficult to withdraw in time.

"Hurry back! Get out of here! ”

Lei Lan shouted hoarsely, but the shouts of the Han soldiers around him became more and more intense.

The Han army ambushed all of them and killed Lei Lan's troops, who were huddled together.

"Lei Lan, you have been ambushed, don't resist stubbornly, if you come down with Lilly, I can protect your life!"

Liu Ke drove the donkey cart, held the chessboard, and yelled.

He wanted to gather one or two of the generals.

It can not only close the hearts of the people, but also make a full posture.

It is also not advisable to blindly kill.

This Lei Lan does have some ability, although Li Jingji has been defeated in a hundred battles, he also has a command of 76, and he is really bold enough, as a partial general, it is more than enough.

Lei Lan turned a deaf ear to Liu Ke's words and fought bloodily.

He boasted of being a talented man in the country, and Zhang Yiping had obviously reminded him to beware of ambushes, but he was still ambushed, and he would inevitably be ashamed to laugh after that.

Although it is surrounded now, it is not without the strength of a battle, even if it wants to surrender, it will have to wait for a complete fight, and it will be captured before surrendering, right?

Soon his chance to surrender came.

The soldiers and horses under his command were all crowded together, and the Han army, which had been prepared for a long time, rushed forward and took advantage of the situation to kill.

Lei Lan was already preparing to shout surrender.

But at this moment, a shout pierced the dark sky:

"General Lei, don't panic, Zhang Yiping is here !!"

"General!!"

Lei Lan heard Zhang Yiping's voice and was overjoyed.

General Zhang is worthy of being a famous general in the country, how many times stronger than him as a talented man in the country?!

Not only Lei Lan's heart was lifted, but even the soldiers under his command also cheered up again.

Liu Ke didn't expect that there were still people to stir up the situation.

Seeing that in the darkness, he couldn't see the number of enemy troops clearly, and he was afraid that he would light too many torches and burn himself, so he had to stop his troops for the time being, and just slowly pursued and killed.

And Zhang Yiping, who led the troops to help, had no intention of fighting, but only led troops to meet Lei Lan's department, and was on guard against the Han army everywhere.

Rao is like this, the Han army can also be called a big victory this time, capturing more than 1,000 people, beheading 3,000, and scattering and fleeing countless times.

Even if Zhang Yiping responded, Lei Lan's army of soldiers and horses was afraid that there were not many left.
