Chapter 202: The Beginning of the Decisive Battle
The final of the big contest officially kicked off, Tanzhou, Hengzhou, Yizhou, Yuezhou, and Daozhou in addition to leaving the necessary troops to deploy, almost all pulled out, nearly 500,000 soldiers and horses in the vast wilderness of Xiang County began to compete in the drama, the time was 20 days, and the enemy was expected to be eliminated, and the strength of their own losses was small. Of course, the most important thing is that the manager must be safe. If the boss is captured and the flag is taken away, it means losing the competition.
At the beginning, Yizhou, Hengzhou, Yuezhou three road army was fierce in the southeast and west three directions to the Tanzhou army to encircle, obviously, Zhao Laoda, Qian Laoer, Sun Laosan last time suffered from Li Yunlong's old Tanzhou soldiers and horses, especially the boss Zhao Jingzhi, who was suffering from a small difficulty, only thinking about revenge, so this time I made an appointment to attack the Tanzhou soldiers and horses.
Xiao Yan had no choice but to avoid its edge, and directly pulled the team into the depths of Yun Mountain on the bank of Yun Lake, Yun Mountain on the bank of Yun Lake, Xiao Yan is the most familiar, where there is a mountain road, where is a cliff, where there is a deep pit, where there is a water source, all are clear. His ring and the blessed land of the cave are full of troops and military tents, and he does not have to worry about eating and drinking.
Ten days before the finals, the 100,000 troops of Xiao Yan hid in the deep mountains and old forests and did not attack, only in the cloud mountains to familiarize themselves with the environment, practice the formation, and at the same time send spies to understand the situation of the other four major army divisions. Qian Kang, the second elder of Hengzhou Qian, was targeted by Daozhou soldiers and horses on the way to Tanzhou, suffered a loss, lost a pioneer battalion, lost 10,000 soldiers and horses, and had to return to defense, and is currently facing off on the west bank of Hengshui in the north of Hengzhou.
The two armies of Yizhou and Yuezhou surrounded the soldiers and horses of Tanzhou, but the shadow of the soldiers and horses of Tanzhou disappeared at once, but the vanguard flags of their own two armies encountered, and they did not have time to report to Zhao Jingzhi and Sun Jin, so they did it in full swing, the fighting was fierce, and there were casualties among each other, Zhao Jingzhi and Sun Jin knew, and they were so angry that they scolded the captains of the two vanguard banners, but fortunately, there were not many casualties, and it did not hinder the big thing. The two secretly instructed that the two armies continued to fight in disguise, and sent people around to find out the whereabouts of the soldiers and horses in Tanzhou.
Ten days passed, Xiao Nan smiled and instructed his subordinates: "Let the wind go out and tell us to Boss Zhao and Sun Laosan, these two guys seem to be fighting on the surface, secretly wearing crotch pants, knowing that I am not easy to deal with, and want to eat me first, so I hid first and let them play for ten days first, and now they have played a real fire, they don't buy each other, they are in their own positions, they can lead the snake out of the hole, let them come and play with us!"
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the soldiers and horses of Yizhou and Yuezhou to encircle and suppress the soldiers and horses of Tanzhou stationed in Yunshan on the shore of Yunhu. A few hours later, the spies came to report that the soldiers and horses of Yizhou and Yuezhou had arrived, and began to search separately in the mountains.
Xiao Nan called the purple flag Hu Si over and secretly explained this and this, and Hu Si nodded and took the order.
Not long after, spies frequently came to report that the soldiers and horses of Yizhou met with the purple flag of the pioneer banner Hu Si, and the two sides fought fiercely.
Less than half an hour later, the spies came to report and said in a panic: "Dashuai, it's not good! General Hu Si's vanguard banner was surrounded and suppressed by the soldiers and horses of Yizhou and Yuezhou, and the losses were not small, and the defeat was ......."
Xiao Ku glanced at Xiao Yan and said, "I'll take a look!"
Small difficulties.
The spies came in succession:
"Oh no! General Hu lost a commander. ”
"Oh no! General Hu has lost another centurion and another centurion!"
"Oh no! General Hu, a commander of a thousand soldiers, was captured, and lost another battalion!"
“......”
Xiao Nan listened quietly, but replied: "Got it." "I won't say anything more.
An hour passed, and the spies came to report: "Congratulations, General Hu has introduced 20,000 soldiers and horses from Yuezhou and 20,000 soldiers and horses from Yizhou into General Yu Xiaoku's ambush circle." ”
Xiao Nan frowned: "How many? How many enemy troops are there?"
Spy: "Yizhou and Yuezhou each have two flags, a total of four flags and 40,000 horses." ”
Xiao Nan slapped the table: "Zhao Jingzhi and Sun Jin, the two old foxes, are really cunning! They are also willing to pay the capital, and the 40,000 soldiers and horses are abandoned like this! It is estimated that these four banners of soldiers and horses are also deliberately put in by them, and they should be allowed to startle the snakes, not let them rush in! Zhao Jingzhi and Sun Jin's original intention should be to let these 40,000 soldiers and horses be embedded in the mountains like nails, disrupting our deployment and rhythm, but it is a pity that these four banners of men and horses could not withstand the temptation of General Hu Si, and still fell into our encirclement. Let's see where the rest of their soldiers are?"
Soon, the spies came to report that the soldiers and horses of Yuezhou and Yizhou blocked the entrance and exit of nearby Yunshan, and the spies could not go out and could not enter, and they did not know the deployment of their troops, but the soldiers and horses of the two states did not enter the mountains again, obviously they did not want to fight a decisive battle with Xiao Yan in the mountains, but waited for the rabbits, and wanted to wait for the soldiers and horses of Xiao Yan to go out of the mountain, and the soldiers and horses of the two states surrounded and wiped them out!
Xiao Nan laughed, and ordered Liu Hai, Meng Qing, and Meng Yao to be called, and after giving such and such careful instructions, the three of them obeyed the order.
On the shore of Yunhu Lake, Zhao Jingzhi and his Yizhou Chinese army camp were set up in the grassland where Xiao Yan and Xiao Ku used to ride eagles, but now it is early winter, and the original grass everywhere has withered and decayed. Zhao Jingzhi and his generals and the commanders of the five banners of the Chinese army all gathered together to discuss military affairs.
Zhao Jingzhi was furious, his two vanguard banners and 20,000 soldiers and horses did not listen to his prior explanation, greedy for merit, and as a result, he was lured into Yunshan by Yun Xiaonan, and was all captured alive and withdrawn from the battlefield. He reprimanded other Wanfu Zhang, must focus on the overall situation, and do not underestimate the enemy's rash advance, Yun Xiaoyan's soldiers and horses have been in the mountains for more than ten days, once the grain and grass do not continue, they must rush out, the banners and horses only need to stabilize the camp, wait for the rabbit, and wait for the labor. Don't worry about the clouds and small difficulties, and then the two armies will not worry about not being able to eat the Tanzhou army.
After Zhao Jingzhi reprimanded his subordinates, he listened to the situation of the flags one by one, explained the precautions, and suddenly heard the noise of the soldiers outside, I don't know what happened, I hurriedly went out to take a look, only to see a cloud eagle of black crows in the sky flying over, covering the sky and the sun, Zhao Jingzhi suddenly thought of one thing, and shouted: "Hide!"
It's a pity that it's too late, it was the Yunying Heavenly Soldiers of the Tanzhou Military Sub-district who came, only to see the arrows in the sky shooting down like rain, and the soldiers of the Chinese army battalion couldn't dodge, and they were hit by arrows one after another, and the soldiers who were not hit by the arrows hid in the tent one after another. Among the hundreds of cloud eagles, more than 30 cloud eagles suddenly flew down, and many soldiers jumped down from under the cloud eagles, led by Liu Hai, Meng Qing, and Meng Yao, and even the worry-free Bai Xue was among them. A group of people rushed straight to the big tent of the Chinese army, and before Zhao Jingzhi's personal soldiers came to their senses, Zhao Jingzhi and his generals, and the ten thousand men and uncles were captured alive and slipped out and got on the back of Yunying. Zhao Jingzhi's personal soldiers wanted to risk their lives and rushed up to save people, but they were all shot by arrows in the sky and fell to the ground, seeing Yunying flying away, the Yizhou soldiers of the Chinese army's big tent were stunned and helpless, you look at me, I look at you, and their eyes are shocked and desperate.
It didn't take long for the soldiers of the banners in Yizhou to see the Lingqi that ordered the retreat, although they were puzzled, but no one in the army dared to disobey the banner order, so they withdrew from the pass that blocked the entry and exit of Yunshan, and according to the guidance of the Lingqi, they went to the wilderness by the Yunhu Lake one by one to concentrate on stationing, only to see Zhao Jingyun, the generals and the Wanfu Zhang's faces gloomy, Zhao Jingzhi sighed at the sky, didn't say anything, waved the Lingqi in his hand, and led the army back to Yizhou. 10
