Chapter 289: Encirclement
When the general listened to General Shufan talk about the scene when he set the plan, he also patted his thigh and said, "If I am also in front of me, I will definitely let Gongzi choose to extend this plan for half a year and destroy the plan they talked about." "When I heard the plan of besieging on three sides, driving the defeated army all the way west, to the banks of the great rivers on the border, and finally annihilating, I smacked my mouth and said that it was really a good way to do it once and for all, but it was a little too vicious. General Shu Fan smiled and said, "Then we will inform Gongzi and ask him to change his plan and find a gentle method that can be accepted by the general." ”
The general smiled and said, "Okay, don't give me a poor mouth, let's go on." General Shufan went on to talk about the combat missions of the various units and the combat positions they had reached. The general asked, "Then where is my combat mission and location?" General Shufan was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said, "Childe didn't say anything about your task, so you can rest." The general glared at General Shufan and said, "Such a big thing, you dare to let me rest." Okay, I'll let you rest, and I'll take your place in command. Hum. No, this little guy is playing tricks with me again, is there a map, take it out and show it. The two of them lay on the map again and began to carefully study their respective positions in all the arrangements and the directions they were traveling, and finally the general pointed to the wide open space after the last pass went west, and said with a smile: "This fairy boy always gives me dumb riddles." Vacate such an open space to test me. In this way, leave the defense of this pass to me, and I will immediately send troops to exchange your troops at another pass, and you will lead the attack on the flank, where the battle line is too long, and if you don't get it right, there will be problems, and the frontal attack from here will be borne by me. You are the commander of the entire flank battlefield, and there are still three days left before the time for the attack, and I will send troops overnight, and tomorrow your troops will be able to rush back. The two of us will meet for a moment tonight, and tomorrow you will set off with the troops. The infantry you brought with you will be handed over to me and you will be left where you are, and you will lead the cavalry to action. ”
General Shufan has also been worried that the strength of the flanks is a little weak, especially the troops led by Gongzi, except for the personnel who stayed at the pass, the strength is the thinnest. So after hearing the general's arrangement, he nodded in agreement. The general said: "I know that you care about the small number of troops that Gongzi brings, this is already his usual style, and he keeps the most difficult and dangerous to himself." You're still the same as you do this time. Keep an eye on him, don't let him out of the slightest danger, and leave him behind in a big battle. In the end, General Shufan talked about the commander of the Eastern Front battlefield, and the general listened to it and laughed and said: "The people in their peaceful country have no eyes, and they have offended the little princess, which is more troublesome than offending the son, that little princess." It's really a troublemaker, and the son is very fond of the little princess, and now, the country of peace has to suffer. Speaking of which, the general of the Eastern Front is still a talent. If you have ambition, see how capable he is, and we will help him when the time comes, so that he can achieve their wishes. Accomplish the great cause of reorganizing the army. ”
Early the next morning, General Shufan led the cavalry and was about to set off. Both the general and the infantry general came to see him off. After explaining some things to each other, General Shufan led the troops and set off. Looking at the figure of the cavalry in the distance, the general arranged for the generals beside him: "The cavalry is ready now, leaving only 10,000 people, and as soon as the battle begins, after the first stage of the task is completed, follow me to pursue outside the next pass, and all the rest will be transferred to the next pass. He said to the infantry general: "You just stay here, I estimate that the big battle arranged by Gongzi is only the beginning of the whole operation, for the future war, you have to do two things, one is to further integrate the army I brought, so that they can quickly form combat effectiveness." The second is to do a good job in dealing with the aftermath, while cleaning up the battlefield, do a good job of pacifying the people, and at the same time collect vehicles, gather all the materials, and prepare to transport them back to China. The infantry general nodded in agreement. At this time, the soldiers who reconnoitred came to report that the opposing army, sixty miles from the pass, had suddenly stopped, and had not moved until now. The general and the infantry general looked at each other and said with a smile: "This is after hearing that there was a problem at this pass, they stopped." Tomorrow is the time that Childe has decided to attack, and we still have sixty miles to go. This time we were in a supporting role, and we didn't need a lot of troops. Then he arranged for the cavalry to set off, rushed to the next pass, and instructed the cavalry general: "You command there, and when the defeated army arrives, set up a formation to meet each other, kill each other, and let them reduce the area of spread." Only set up in front of the pass and attack from the flank. Only use infantry to fight, and after they are scattered, the cavalry will attack on the flank, guard along the road, and complete the final encirclement, not too deep, so as not to affect the childe's plan to drive the tiger and drive the wolf. ”
After the general left, the general ordered to prepare an army of 300,000, now seize the time to rest, set off in the middle of the night, meet the coming opponent's army, and the infantry general said: "These troops I have led, once the other side is defeated, these troops will be under your control, in the pursuit, the infantry cannot catch up with the cavalry, I only take these 10,000 cavalry to pursue, and the rest will be all left to you." The infantry general nodded and said: "The opponent's troops are too large, you can only leave 30,000 people to guard the pass, anyway, if you want to clean up the battlefield, it is better to take them all, as soon as the battle is over, it is convenient to stay and clean up the battlefield." ”
The general thought for a while and said, "Then you can arrange for your lieutenant general to guard the pass personally, and you follow me to the battlefield, and the army will be handed over to you for command after the incident." Be prepared to set off at any time, Childe's use of troops is very sudden, and you must prepare the army at any time. ”
At dawn, the general set up a position less than three miles away from the camp where the other party was stationed, set up a command platform, and the infantry general climbed the high platform, and saw that the army on the opposite side did not move. As soon as the two discussed, the army rested on the spot, and the two acted as sentinels to observe the situation of the army on the opposite side from the high platform. At this time, General Shufan sent someone to contact the general, and after seeing that this side was ready, he said to the general: "Gongzi has also led the army to the back of the other party, and the sides are also ready, and the general asked the general how to act." ”
The general thought for a moment and said: "In this way, I will attack first, then attack from the side, and then attack from behind, so that the other party can't figure out the situation, and it will naturally be chaotic." ”
Come and say, "Okay. Listen to the command of the general, who informed us with a ringing arrow when he attacked. With that, the man hurried back on horseback. After watching the people leave, the general estimated the time and said to the infantry general: "Let's wait, when we see that the other party finds us, when we are frightened, we will not be too late to do it, this will let everyone rest for a while and recuperate their spirits." When the time comes, let the other party see how good we are. ”
The infantry general said: "With such a leader, he didn't even set up a sentry standing guard, so he dared to cover his head and sleep, this courage is really big enough, this courage is really admirable." ”
The general said: "It's no wonder. Childe's use of soldiers is really difficult to figure out, don't talk about the other party, even we don't know what Childe thinks after we make it clear and understandable, otherwise. Even we can't guess the thoughts and trajectories at all. Just like this time, we were originally in the country, but we only knew about the military crisis here and sent troops to the rescue. But under the calculation of this little goblin, not only did the other party's millions of troops be calculated, but even other people's countries had to be calculated, how long did it take. Before we even knew the news, we had already closed the front and back doors of this country, which no one could have imagined. Originally, it was going to destroy other people's countries, but in the blink of an eye, what was originally going to be given to others happened to their own heads, whether this change is faster than a dream, you and I are not on the battlefield and personally involved in this matter, can you and I believe it. ”
The two of them spoke, and before they knew it, nearly two hours had passed. The two saw that the other party's military camp had begun to move, and at this time they had already realized that something was wrong, and they were pointing to this side and saying something, the general said: "It's time, let everyone get up and prepare, we have to do it." After speaking, he said to the commander: "Order the whole team to prepare to attack." With the fluttering of the herald's flag, the army returned to its original formation in a moment. The general saw that several general-looking people appeared in the other party's barracks, and they were comparing and drawing there, and then the soldiers began to jump up to each other, and knew that this was about to assemble the team, so he said to the starter: "Beat the drum and attack." With the order of the general, on the bright and quiet land in the early morning, a dull and thrilling drum suddenly sounded like a thunderbolt, and then the drum became the rhythm of the march, and with the rhythm of the drum, the army began the whole action, like a wave towards the opponent's military camp. As soon as the opposing generals saw this formation, they knew that this was the beginning of the opponent's attack, and began to hurriedly gather troops and prepare to resist. The general saw that the army was already approaching the opponent's camp, and that the opponent's camp had already gathered a lot of troops, and said to the starting soldier: "Cover the troops in the opponent's barracks." With the swing of the flag, the army was ready, and the general said, "Shoot." With the general's order, two arrows with an earth-shattering sound were shot out to the side and in front of the front. With the shooting of these two arrows, the prelude to this great war was opened.
When the general who led the troops on the other side heard the report that a large army was ready to attack his own troops and could attack at any time, the general who led the troops almost beat the people who reported the report out, and in this place there were troops attacking him, and he came outside to watch with curiosity. With a red tassel on his head and black armor, this is the attire that the generals already know, and he muttered to himself that these guys came from there. Gather your team and prepare for battle. Just when everyone was busy assembling the team, the other party sounded a frightening and frightening drum, with the sound of the drum, the general saw that the opponent's army had begun to move towards his side, and the general who led the troops hurriedly arranged for the assembled troops to go out of the barracks to meet the battle, at this moment, with the sound of arrows, the overwhelming rain of arrows fell head-on, and the guards beside him saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly pressed the general who led the troops under everyone. The general who led the troops struggled, but was still pressed under him by everyone, just when he was struggling, he suddenly felt the strength of the hands of the people who pressed him, everyone stood still, the general was stunned, and then checked the people, and saw that all the people who pressed him were not breathing, the general crawled out of the pile, suddenly felt the sky darkened, and looked up to see a dark cloud of arrows flying behind him.
