Chapter 1389 Divide troops and surprise attack(1/2)

When Lou Squad sent troops to Yuyang, the army of General Zhao Yun of the chariot and cavalry also arrived at the Youzhou border.

The army on this route was commanded by Zhao Yun, Pang Tong and Chen Gong.

In the tent of the commander, Gongsun Zan, Zhang Ren, Zhang Xiu, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and other generals sat on the left and right.

Young players from the imperial examination such as Wen Yang and Huo Jun are also on the list, and their lineup is luxurious.

Zhao Yun took the secret military letter from the Anmen Army and said to the generals:

"The Wuhuan people gathered a total of 300,000 troops.

Among them, 150,000 troops were led by the Great Shanyu Tadun to guard Liucheng.

Under the command of the great leader Lou Squad, the remaining cavalry intends to invade Yuyang County.

Can you have good solutions?”

Chen Gong said with a serious expression:

"If the cavalry under Lou Ban invaded Youzhou, the people of our great Chu would inevitably suffer significant losses.

In the view of the palace, our army should increase its troops in Yuyang and eliminate the Lou Ban's troops.

Then I will visit Liucheng.”

Pang Tong sat cross-legged on the chair, shaking the dark feather fan and laughing:

“Oh, Mr. Gongtai’s plan is still too conservative.

Defeating the Lou Team can certainly ensure that the people will not suffer losses.

But they will also miss the excellent opportunity to annihilate the Wuhuan.

If Tadun, Gongsun Du and Gao Nanwu's troops join forces together, it will be a great harm to our Great Chu!"

Chen Gong humbly asked for advice:

"How should our army deal with this battle between Mr. Fengchu?"

"Haha, in Pang's humble opinion, it is better to divide the troops and attack and deal with both Wuhuan."

"this…"

Chen Gong hesitated and said:

"The Wuhuan army has a large army of 300,000, while our army has only 200,000.

If you attack the enemy forces with all your might, you can be sure of no mistakes.

Will there be risks when the troops are divided into western Liaoning?"

Pang Tong said disapprovingly:

"When you fight, how can you not take risks?

The main force of our army can directly enter Yuyang and wait for an opportunity to defeat the Lou Squad.

At the same time, a secretly sent elite cavalry to attack Liucheng.

The Wuhuan people were mostly cavalry, and Tadun's irritability and arrogance would definitely go out of the city to fight a decisive battle.

As long as you can kill the Great Chanyu Tadun, Wuhuan can be destroyed in one battle!"

Speaking of this, Pang Tong looked around the generals and said with a smile:

"A surprise attack on Liucheng, if you win, you will be famous in history, and if you lose, you will die without a place to bury it.

I wonder which general would like to gain this reputation and be remembered in history?”

After hearing Pang Tong's plan, the generals in the tent shone with their eyes.

As for the danger of dying in Liucheng, they subconsciously ignored it.

The young general Wen Yang said impatiently:

"Military advisor, let me go!"

Zhang Liao's son Zhang Hu also volunteered to Pang Tong:

"The last general is willing to follow the army to attack Liucheng, and ask the military advisor to agree!"

When Zhang Ren, Gao Shun and other generals saw the two young generals volunteering to fight, they were embarrassed to compete with them, so they all extinguished their intentions to go out.

After all, they are calm and resolute in character and not that thick-skinned.

At this time, Zhang Liao took two steps forward and looked at Wen Yang with gentle eyes, which made Wen Yang get goosebumps.

"General Wen Yuan, what are you...what are you going to do?"

Zhang Liao smiled at Wen Yang and said earnestly:

"My nephew, when you go to Liucheng, you need to go deep into the enemy's backbone, which is extremely dangerous.

The water here is very deep and you can't grasp it.

You are the future of my Great Chu, so let me take such a dangerous thing!

Uncle has been in the frontier for many years, so if there is any risk, let him take it."

Zhang Hu looked at his father suspiciously, not understanding why his father suddenly became so kind.

Wen Yang was even more moved when he saw Zhang Liao care about him so much, and looked at Zhang Liao and said:

"General Wen Yuan, I didn't expect you to care about me so much. You are even more close to my uncle!"

Zhang Liao gently stroked Wen Yang's head and said with a soft laugh:

"My good nephew, as long as you are obedient, I will be your uncle in the future."

Zhao Yun looked at the filial two men of uncle, Ci and nephew, and couldn't help but twitch gently.

Junior Brother Wen Yang is still too young, and he still doesn't know that he has been fooled by Zhang Liao.

And Zhang Wenyuan is also, it's really a bit shameless, and he even has the nerve to take over the credits of the younger generation.

You have been named Marquis of Wusheng by Your Majesty and have been given the rank of Lieutenant General for your contribution of over 8 million or 100,000.

Why do you still have to fool your junior brother?

But then I thought about it, attacking Liucheng really requires a scheming general like Zhang Liao.

Although Wen Yang's virtuous nephew is brave, he is still a little too young.

Zhao Yun looked around and said:

"If there is no objection, General Wen Yuan will lead his army to attack Liucheng.

This commander personally led a large army to destroy the Lou squad.

General Wen Yuan, how many soldiers are needed to attack Liucheng this time?"

Pang Tong pinched his short beard and said to Zhang Liao:

"It is not advisable to lead too many troops in the surprise attack on Liucheng, otherwise it will easily reveal its whereabouts and give Tadun a time to react.

Moreover, there are many people and it is very likely that Tadun is afraid and dare not go out of the city to fight.

In Pang's opinion, General Wen Yuan could lead an army of 50,000.

I wonder what the general wants?”

Zhang Liao said with great enthusiasm:

"There are not many soldiers, but the essence!

Why does it take a 50,000 army to attack Liucheng?

Just five thousand elite soldiers!"

Chen Gong frowned when he heard this:

"This battle cannot be missed. General Wenyuan should bring more troops."

Zhang Liao laughed loudly:

"I can defeat 100,000 Yan troops with eight hundred people.

How can it be just a matter of being a mere slap?

If the military advisor doesn’t believe it, Zhang is willing to issue a military order!”

Wen Yang looked at Zhang Liao's eyes lit up, thinking that General Wen Yuan was so handsome!

He couldn't help but blurt out:

"Uncle, I want to go with you!"

Zhang Liao stroked Wen Yang's head and said:

"My good nephew, I have meat to eat with my uncle.

Going with uncle will definitely make the first contribution.”

Zhang Liao was the general whom His Majesty relied on. He was willing to issue a military order, and Chen Gong was embarrassed to say anything more.
