Chapter XVIII
After all, if the army is compressed near Tiger Roaring Mountain, then his army will have no way to retreat, but this old Jianghu still left nearly five hundred people plus Zhiguang to guard the valley mouth in case Luo Cheng escaped. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
And Chen Zhiyuan was sent by Huilun to the west to monitor Fuyang's every move, this move was a disguised exile for Chen Zhiyuan, everyone knew that Huilun did not want to have another voice during the war, and the Chen family army was less than 2,000 people, and the number of sneak attacks on the enemy was too small, if there was an accident, but it would have a fatal impact on the entire army, fortunately, Huilun did not take away Chen Zhiyuan's right to take charge of the army, and Chen Zhiyuan could only endure this breath of anger.
Zhiguang also felt a little dissatisfied, he was used to being flattered in Qingliang Temple, but now he was called by his uncle, and his heart was a little unhappy, he felt that Luo Cheng had died in the valley, and the order of Huilun was also disobeyed.
With a 'whoosh', the Breaking Knife suddenly rushed out of the storm and plunged directly into the mud not far from the valley mouth, and the Chaos Furnace that bound the blade with the swallow claw trembled slightly with the hilt, but it did not attract anyone's attention at all.
In a few breaths, Luo Cheng appeared at the mouth of the furnace, followed by Zizang, but Xiaoliu did not appear, maybe he was relatively weak and was forcibly left in the treasure furnace by Luo Cheng, the storm in the valley was still raging, Luo Cheng glanced back, and then made a gesture and put away the breaking knife. The two disappeared into Taniguchi in an instant.
......
In the early morning of the second day, the 25,000 troops led by Huilun finally met the angry Huizhou army, although the other party was twice as large. But everyone in the Huilun army was highly motivated, as if victory was in sight. In order to avoid unnecessary losses, the two sides fought for half an hour and then temporarily died down, waiting for the commander to make a decision.
Strangely, the army stopped ten miles away and began to dig trenches. In front of the trench, rows of horses were also put on the posture of a long-term siege. You must know that this is a field battle, not a siege. Hui Lun's army could bypass these defenses and attack its flanks at any time, but since the commander had already given the order, the soldiers below naturally carried it out. Just when Huilun led the team to observe the enemy situation on the high slope. Nearly 10,000 Huizhou troops are digging happily.
Huilun has been facing the wall in the Beichan Temple for 30 years, and has read almost all the military books, but he has never heard of such a method of warfare.
Thinking of this, Hui Lun shook his head and said secretly: "Since you think so steadily." The old man will play with you until you are at the end of your rope. Just know how stupid the decision you made today was!"
The fortifications of the Huizhou army have been built until late at night, and three trenches of more than ten miles long have been dug out on the vast plain, and there are horse rejection and tripping pits in front, and in the second half of the night, Yan Yan actually ordered the construction of a camp, which really made Huilun unbelievable, and there must be a demon when things go wrong, but unfortunately he couldn't find the doorway if he wanted to break his head, and he could only hope that there was good news coming from the side road that was scattered.
The two armies were in such a stalemate, and there was no arrow for two whole days, and the angry army was even more noisy in the morning, rested at noon, continued to make noise in the afternoon, and sometimes had to beat gongs and drums at night, and the nerves of the noisy Huilun were always tense, and the reaction of the chief general would greatly affect the response of his subordinates, and even the soldiers at the bottom could not sleep well, holding their breath, and wanted to compete with each other.
This stalemate was finally broken in the early morning of the third day, the sky was just dawning, the two armies had not eaten breakfast, many of Huilun's soldiers were still holding tableware in their hands, at this time the scouts on the front line came back with news, there was a riot in the camp of Yan Yan, it seemed that the rear was being attacked by unknown troops, and now even people outside the camp could find out that something was wrong in the village, and it seemed that this chaos would continue for a long time.
Hui Lun carefully observed for a while on the high slope a thousand steps away from the opponent's camp before ordering: "Ran Datong led three thousand cavalry to bypass these traps and attack the enemy's flank, and the rest of the people followed the Chinese army to charge into battle together.
"Yes!"
The generals under his command responded loudly, and then strode away, Huilun stroked his gray beard and said to himself: "Brother Yan, without these 50,000 main forces, Huizhou's defense will be broken like rice paper, you really gave Lao Wei a big gift!"
In the early days of the war, as expected, three thousand iron cavalry rushed to the flank of the opponent's camp in less than a quarter of an hour, and launched a fierce attack on the main camp of Yan Yan, although Yan Yan was well prepared, but after all, he was not familiar with the terrain here, and now he was only inserted in the rear by an army that did not know where to jump out, and it was early in the morning when he was unprepared, it was very difficult for him to gather troops, and it was not easy to withstand the rear, once the cavalry on the flank hit the camp, the entire Chinese army would face a rout.
And Ran Datong was unforgiving, he led the army directly from the north of the Huizhou army, and has been killing a pair of piercing, during which he killed people and set fires, doing everything he could, and when the pressure was relaxed, he found that he had come to the south of the camp, and the Huizhou army after a round of baptism, it was even more chaotic, but just came all the way, it seemed that there were fewer enemy troops killed, which made him feel a little inappropriate in his heart.
However, on the battlefield, he couldn't help thinking so much, and after turning the horse's head, more than 3,000 people killed him again.
If it weren't for the need to fill the trenches, Huilun believed that now the other party had been defeated under the impact of the infantry, but unfortunately the resistance in front was still very fierce.
And half an hour later, the battle situation has changed dramatically, more than 1,000 people who stayed in the Huilun camp found that a large army suddenly appeared in the rear, and the banner clearly hung a big 'Luo' word, Huilun was shocked when he heard the scout's words, got up and said angrily: "Nonsense, Luo Cheng is still uncertain about life and death in the valley, where will there be this stinky boy's army, explore again!"
Seeing the scout running out, Huilun became more and more uneasy, and hurriedly sent someone to find Zhiguang, and at the same time ordered half of the army to return to help ensure that the camp was not lost.
It's a pity that the truth is always not as expected, when the enemy's army is becoming clearer and clearer on the horizon, and when Huilun sees the figure of Luo Cheng in front of the army, a thought suddenly pops up in his heart: "It's over, ......" (to be continued. )
