Chapter 25: Laying the Nails, the Chinese Army Makes a Hurry
General Yan, why are you still confronting the enemy at daybreak and not returning to camp?" Xun You came to the front of the formation and asked eagerly. It is already broad daylight and the enemy can easily see our strength. If they return with their entire army,
Launching an attack is a very dangerous thing.
"Yan Liang saw Xun You coming and told him the beginning of the matter in detail.
"I am the military advisor accompanying Chen Yaotian, the governor of Shanggu, and you are the leader of the Tuoba tribe?" After hearing the reason, Xun You asked Tuoba Xiong in the enemy formation.
"Exactly, let my brother go now." Tuoba Xiong and Yan Liang had been confronting each other for half an hour, and his mood became even more impatient.
"How about we make a deal? If the deal is successful, not only will we let your brother go, but you will also get a lot of things you want." Xun You had just heard Yan Liang's narrative and had already seen some clues from it. At this time, he was leisurely and contented.
Dingshenxian is in sharp contrast to Tuoba Xiong.
"What's the deal?"
"Leader Tuoba, don't worry, let me explain to you."
…
It is said that Qiu Liju was afraid of heavy losses due to the unclear situation, so he gathered his troops and retreated fifty miles. After taking inventory, he found that two thousand troops and horses had been lost, which made Qiu Liju heartbroken. At this time, in the Chinese army's tent, Qiu Liju
He frowned and sat on the main seat, Zhang Ba also sat beside him.
"Master Qiu Liju made a good move when he retreated! I see that the two leaders of the Tuoba tribe are pretentious and don't take you seriously. Allowing them to cut off the rear this time not only blocks the enemy's way forward, but also allows you to
It minimizes their losses and reduces their power. What a wonderful move, sir!" Zhang Ba was still counting on Qiu Liju to avenge his son. Seeing his defeat, he was in a bad mood and flattered him.
"Master Zhang is overly praised." Qiu Liju's brows slowly widened when he heard Zhang Ba's praise.
"It stands to reason that there shouldn't be a large army of troops here. I wonder who was so bold last night and dared to lead his troops in a sneak attack?" Zhang Ba saw Qiu Liju's expression softening and expressed his doubts.
"I have sent out scouts to explore everywhere. I believe we will soon know whose troops it is."
At this time, a guard came to the tent and reported to Qiu Liju: "Sir, General Tuoba Xiong is back and waiting outside."
"I understand, get back!" After Qiu Liju finished speaking, he stood up and said to Zhang Ba: "Master Zhang, let's go together to see our hero, please!" The two of them walked out of the tent.
Tuoba Xiong's face was pale, he had no less than a dozen wounds on his body, and he was covered in blood. He looked extremely miserable. At this time, he saw Qiu Liju and the others from a distance, and ran to his side, crying loudly: "
Sir, I followed your order and led five thousand warriors of the tribe to stop the enemy from advancing. However, the enemy was too fierce and we suffered heavy losses. Even my brother fought with the enemy general for hundreds of rounds and was accidentally killed by the enemy.
You must avenge your brothers after they were killed!"
"General Tuoba Yong bravely defeated the three armies, but he was killed! Whose team is this, so cruel?" Qiu Liju was shocked when he heard what Tuoba Xiong said. Although Tuoba Yong is usually arrogant, he is also
Built on a foundation of strength.
"He is a subordinate of Chen Yaotian, the governor of Shanggu."
"Impossible. Chen Yaotian and his 10,000 infantry set out from Juyang just the day before yesterday. If they can enter the Juyong area now, it would be considered very fast. General, can't you deceive me?"
"How dare you deceive your lord? The day before yesterday, Chen Yaotian's general Yan Liang led a cavalry as a vanguard force, but was not detected by our scouts. Yan Liang led his troops all the way to Juyong, and sent scouts to detect the lax guarding of our camp.
, so he led his troops to steal the camp."
"Humph, these scouts! Come here, call the scout commander. I want to ask him how he detected the enemy's situation and even ignored such a big thing."
"Sir, you have to avenge my brothers." Tuoba Xiong cried when Qiu Liju changed the subject.
"Don't worry, I will definitely avenge them. General Tuoba has done great service by stopping the enemy army this time. I will definitely give you a big reward when the time comes." Qiu Liju watched Tuoba Xiong's remaining troops defeated.
Almost all of them were injured and looked sad. They even stepped forward to comfort them, but in fact they were already happy in their hearts.
Chen Yaotian led 10,000 infantry, and after nearly two days of marching, they had just entered Juyong. Looking at the darkening sky, Chen Yaotian found a place to set up camp, and then ordered the soldiers to strengthen patrols.
Chen Yaotian was sitting in the main tent, with Xi Zhicai, Dian Wei and others below.
"I received news from the scouts sent by Yan Liang this morning. Last night, this guy had arrived in the middle of Juyong, and was only fifty miles away from the Wuhuan coalition."
"Our troops and General Yan's troops are nearly two days' march away from each other. General Yan came a little rashly. Zhang Ba colluded with Wuhuan to come in a fierce manner. Wuhuan has lived on horseback since he was a child. He is skilled in bow and horse and has strong fighting power. If he discovers that Yan
The general is launching an attack. How can five thousand men defeat thirty thousand? We have two days' journey, and I'm afraid General Yan will be defeated when we arrive." The speaker was Xi Zhicai.
"Don't worry Zhicai. Last night's letter mentioned that the Wu-Huan coalition forces had not discovered Yan Liang's tribe. Not only that, the Wu-Huan coalition forces were unprepared and their defense was lax. Gongda had a plan to target the enemy. I'm afraid I'll have to fight with them later.
At that time, Yan Liangbu had already given the enemy a head-on blow. This is Gongda's strategy, let's take a look!" After Chen Yaotian finished speaking, he handed over the letter in his hand, and everyone below circulated it one by one.
"Taking advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness, they launched a sneak attack! When they reacted, they came up with a trick out of nowhere, making the enemy confused and thinking that the large army was outside, so they were scared away. From this point of view, the first success was achieved by General Yan
Capture it. It's just my lord. Although the enemy suffered a loss, General Yan's headquarters was also exposed. We should step up our march and join him as soon as possible to prevent any unexpected events." Xi Zhicai said after reading the letter.
