Chapter 279: Plans for the Eastern Capital

Xiao Jiu said to the general: "Since this is the case, then I have a plan in mind, and I will see if it is feasible for the general." Then Xiao Jiu explained the plan, and the general said: "Childe, I really obey you, if I see it with my own eyes, I will definitely believe it." If I didn't say anything, I would do what Childe had planned. Xiao Jiu said: "Hidden soldiers in the Eastern Capital, you must explain to them clearly, to make it clear that it is to return to our Wuling Kingdom, and then there is a fork in the road here, through which you can directly reach the Osprey Beak in front of the East Gate of the Eastern Capital. ”

After the arrangement, Xiao Jiu called the leader of the big men and asked, "How many people are you going to go?" Dahan said: "It was enough for us to go to two, but for the sake of insurance, we went to four." Xiao Jiu thought about it and nodded in agreement. Said to the general: "More than ten of them are people who have been following me for a long time and never leave, and there are still on the road, separate into the city, to avoid the attention of the other party's spies, these people will be handed over to the general." Once you're in the Eastern Capital, you don't have to worry about them. Then he said to the big man: "You are already very skilled in this matter, but you must be careful, as soon as their army leaves, you will see the opportunity to act, with the goal of completing the task, and decide the method of action yourself." ”

After everyone left, Xiao Jiu said to Xiao Hei again: "General Shufan, you have already met, now send you to send a letter to General Shufan, and then wait for General Shufan to take the pass, write you a reply and rush back as quickly as possible." After Xiao Hei agreed, he took the letter with him, and became as big as an eagle and flew away quickly.

At this time, Xiao Jiu began to ask his uncle to buy all the large and small clay pots in the capital, sort out the various utensils he brought, and wait for the arrival of the other party's army.

After the commander of the Eastern Front left the capital, there were more than a dozen soldiers dressed as soldiers in the escort team behind him, and they followed the general to the eastern capital. As soon as the general on the road thought of the plan set by the son and the method he taught, he couldn't help but laugh in his heart. When you see this isolated mountain in front of you. The general couldn't help but look at it again, and re-evaluated how many soldiers this mountain peak could hold, and his mind turned to the expression that when he said that it could accommodate up to one million, Childe didn't speak, just smiled. When I read it again, I felt that my number of one million was still a bit of a problem. But after thinking about it, I began to think about how to recapture this mountain again.

After entering the Eastern Capital, after the big man greeted the general, he gradually disappeared into the inconspicuous alleys passing by without even feeling it. The general couldn't help but secretly admire the agility of these big men who followed Gongzi.

The general returned to his headquarters in the eastern capital, arranged for tomorrow's large army action, and designated one general to lead 50,000 soldiers to hold the eastern capital, and all the other generals led the troops out of the city. Fight each other again. This time, the general changed the style of roughly arranging the troops in the past, and carefully arranged the formation of the generals and soldiers in the front. When the arrangement was completed, the general who stayed behind said: "I have an opinion, every time I come to attack the opponent's most difficult place, I undertake the most difficult task, why did I arrange this errand that I didn't do this time, in the end I made a mistake there, and sent me to this position." "Everyone knows that this is a tough guy in the army who can fight and dare to fight hard. Every time, no matter what kind of difficult opponent it is, it is required to be at the forefront of the whole army, the arrow in the army, and the friendship with the general is also a fateful friendship. Who knew that at this time, the general scolded at once. said that he was proud of his merits, did not listen to commands, and the more he scolded, the more angry he became, and the more angry he became. actually left the handsome case, kicked the general out of the military tent with both feet, and claimed that if he dared to talk more. I had to cut off his head.

Everyone watched the general get angry inexplicably, and those who were kicked out also left in a huff. After everyone left, when there was no one in front of him, the left-behind general turned in again, and when he saw the general, he said: "General, what kind of reputation are you kicking and blinking, I always feel that your formation is not an offensive posture, but a retreating formation." The general beckoned: "Can you be quieter, the whole city will know it." Come and talk. When the remaining general came to him, the general whispered, "You are right, we are going to retreat all this time." ”

The general who stayed behind glared, looked at the general and asked, "This is not your style, why do you arrange it like this, are you really afraid of being beaten by your opponent?" ”

The general smiled and said, "You know that I went to the capital, guess who I saw, do you know who the commander of this reinforcement is." The remaining general shook his head. The general continued: "It's our military commander, Gongzi came in person. This is part of Childe's whole plan, and it is also the hardest thing for us to do, but fortunately you didn't stab me at it. When the left-behind general heard this, his eyes widened and he said in surprise: "It's Gongzi who is here, it's not that he can't find his figure after leaving for a long time." ”

The general said: "I saw with my own eyes, not only the son came in person, but even the little princess also arrived, do you think our opponent should have a headache now." Seeing the smile on the face of the general who stayed behind, he continued: "Your task is not to defend the city, but to lead the troops to capture the eastern capital left behind after our retreat. The course of action goes like this. ”

After the general finished the task of the left-behind general, the left-behind general glared, and said in a continuous voice: "It's really a way to cheat the dead and not pay for my life, now I'm miserable, just saliva can drown me, but it's worth it." Dry. ”

The general said: "Not only do you have to do it, but you also have to let the other party know." Tomorrow when we send troops, you will scold the streets, resentful of me beating you, scold as you like, but you have to keep some morality, don't go too far. Your biggest problem is to hold on to the eastern capital, the prince of the city has arranged people, someone answers, and you also consult them more to defend the city, these are the masters who have been following the prince and never leaving. As he spoke, he took out a map and said, "This is the route map of your march that Childe handed over to you." Childe said that if you march along this route, the other party will not care about you anymore. ”

Early the next morning, the general led the army out to meet the enemy, and as soon as he approached the gate of the city, there was a shout. I saw the left-behind general standing on the city gate and pointing at the general and said: "You incompetent commander, you always lose battles, and you learn to use your own people to get angry, I am desperate in every battle, and in the end I suffer from your idleness and kick me out of the military tent, it is really evil to be angry, see if I don't go to the military department to sue you for this waste." At this time, the soldiers standing around him dragged the left-behind general and disappeared at the city gate. The general said in a loud voice: "Arrogant guy, see if I come back from the battle and don't cut off your dog's head." The surrounding generals hurriedly persuaded the general to discourage.

The general led his troops in a flat area outside the eastern capital and set up a military formation. The other party also began to put a military formation on the opposite side, at this moment, a thick smoke rose in the eastern capital, and then the fire soared into the sky, and a pair of soldiers rushed to the general and said: "The general is not good, the general who stayed behind put a fire in the eastern capital, and led the troops out of the north gate, saying that he wanted to return to China to sue the general, so as not to die in the hands of the general." The sergeant began to shout from afar, and his voice was so loud that even the other party could hear it. The general shook his body on the chariot for a while, and insisted on directing the retreat of the army.

The other party saw that the army on this side was retreating, and he did not set up a good position, so he could only command the front army to pursue, but he was violently counterattacked by the other party, so the army just entered the eastern capital, and the pursuing other soldiers had already arrived at the city gate, and the soldiers who were going to enter the city gate last had a battle, because the number of soldiers chasing was not large, and the remaining soldiers repelled the pursuers. Immediately after the pursuing army arrived, the general saw that there was no one to defend the city, so he had no choice but to evacuate the eastern capital. Because the other party has been chasing closely, the general had to turn around at any time to fight with them for a while, and then retreat a little, so that the fight and walk in the afternoon came to the isolated mountain peak, the other party also seemed to know that the general was going to set up a defense here, so he mobilized the army to constantly impact the general's defensive army formation, and gradually the opponent's rear army also caught up, in the violent impact, the general stood on the chariot, was parked on a high platform, it seemed that he was directing the army to go up the mountain, then the general's body shook violently, everyone saw that the general had an arrow inserted in his body, and looked at the exposed part, the arrow had been inserted very deeply, and then the general was planted from the chariot。 There was a great confusion among the surrounding soldiers, and then the whole army could no longer bother to go up the mountain, and began to withdraw in a hurry in the direction of the capital. The opponent only sent the front army to chase after him, and the whole army drove into the mountain, and even the rear army went up the mountain, it seems that the other party has already felt very satisfied after getting this lonely mountain, and has little interest in the retreating generals and the army.

At this time, Xiao Jiu was standing on the gate of the capital, looking at General Shufan's reply, listening to the report of the cavalry spies, knowing that the other party's mysterious army had left the eastern capital and rushed here, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Now we can do it." After speaking, he looked at the retreating army not far ahead and said, "Raise the flag." On my command, the army stopped retreating and rested on the spot. The troops participating in the operation approached the lonely mountain in the form of a large army, and then moved. Then build a command post on the battlefield we have chosen, prepare supplies, and prepare for a decisive battle. With Xiao Jiu's order, bursts of drums and trumpets came from the capital city wall, and then in the roar that shook the earth, two cavalry armies galloped out from both sides, let go of the retreating army, and went straight out from the two wings of the army. At this time, the opponent on the mountain saw that the chasing cavalry were all two people and one horse, and the commander did not know what was going on, but saw that the cavalry army actually surrounded the lonely mountain, riding horses and galloping, and there were also horses and camels in the queue, and the cavalry was galloping. At this time, the soldiers came to report that a cavalry army also appeared on the other side of the lonely mountain, and the commander of the other side did not panic and said to the soldiers: "Stick to the road up the mountain, let them make trouble, and when the morning dawns, as soon as the army behind arrives, we will talk to them again." As he spoke, he walked to his military tent and ordered the army to bury the pot and make food, and to rest quickly. Let the soldiers standing guard pay more attention to the movement under the mountain, and report anything wrong in time.

The soldiers standing guard received the general's instructions, watched the movement under the mountain, and saw that the cavalry had surrounded the entire mountain, and couldn't help but smile, and said in their hearts: Your cavalry is powerful on the mainland, but what can you endure on our mountain. At this time, he saw the other of the two riding from the horse's horse, jumping off the horse, and removing things from the horse, and the cart that followed him also stopped. (To be continued......)
