Chapter 521 Unfavorable to Wuyang

,,,,,,,,,,,,

Not long after, a man in his teens was taken into the tent. Although he was wearing a short dress of a rural farmer, he looked elegant and was obviously a scholar disguised. He bowed and bowed to him, "See General Huang and Yan Shou"

Yan Yan was very familiar with him and smiled and said, "It turned out to be Zhao Shuzuo, but he came on the order of Jiang Shou."

“It’s right”

Zhao Zhu took out a letter from his arms and presented it with both hands, "This is a letter to Liu Zhoumu. Please convey it to the two veteran generals."

Huang Zhong took the letter and said it was a letter to the provincial governor. He couldn't take it apart at will, so he asked, "What is your purpose in mind?"

"Report to General Huang, my guards are grateful to the Jingzhou army for annihilation of Yongqi's army and are willing to serve Liuzhou Mu. However, he cannot command the army in the city and is difficult to directly offer the city. He is willing to cooperate with the two generals to attack the city."

Huang Zhong nodded and asked again: "How many troops are there in the city now?"

"There were originally five thousand troops, but at noon today, Wu Yi led another 15,000 people to arrive. Now there are twenty thousand troops in the city."

"Twenty thousand"

Huang Zhong and Yan Yan looked at each other. The opponent's troops were twice their own, so it would be difficult to capture the city. They had to report to the provincial governor. After pondering for a moment, Yan Yan asked: "Now Wu Yi is the chief general."

"Reporting to Yan Shou, although Wu Yi was the chief general, Shou also knew that Ling Bao and Liu Xu were both Zhang Ren's generals. They didn't buy each other and quarreled in the city for power. It was still very chaotic now."

“We got it”

Huang Zhong said to Zhao Zhu: "Please go back and tell Jiang Shou that he does not need to take risks in the military. As long as he saves the treasury supplies and appeases the people in the city, he will make a contribution."

Zhao Zhu was overjoyed. If this was the case, they would be much less pressure. He quickly gave a deep bow, "I will go back and report now."

He slowly retreated and waited for him to leave, Huang Zhong said to Yan Yan: "The other party has 20,000 troops. Not to mention siegeing the city, even if the two armies fight in the wilderness, we are not sure of winning. I think it is safe to be safe and not to attack the city for the time being. After the army of the governors arrives, we will discuss countermeasures and think what is the righteous thought."

Yan Yan smiled and said, "The old general is worthy of being a cautious person. Since that's the case, then wait for the provincial governor."

Huang Zhong immediately ordered someone to send a letter to Liu Jing, and he ordered the soldiers to strengthen their defense and not to slack off at night.

Zhao Zhu left Huang Zhong's military camp and rode his horse back to Wuyang City from the official road. He ran for about ten miles, but turned his head to run towards a small one. Soon, he came to a relatively hidden valley. At this moment, dozens of patrol soldiers rushed out of both sides of the woods and surrounded him. He turned over and dismounted and bowed, "Please tell General Wu that Zhao Zhu is back."

"It turns out it's Zhao Shuzuo. Please General Wu is waiting,"

Zhao Zhu followed the soldiers to the valley. The valley was very wide, about ten miles long and four or five miles wide. It was called Hulu Valley. There was only a narrow passage for entry and exit. It was a very ideal place to hide troops. There were nearly 20,000 troops hidden in Hulu Valley, which was the Yizhou Army led by Wu Yi.

This was of course Wu Yi's plan. Because the county officials along the way all looked at Feng to surrender to the Jingzhou army, he used the plan and asked the guard Jiang Heng to surrender to Huang Zhong. He ordered Zhao Zhu to send fake news. He led 20,000 troops out of the city and prepared to attack Huang Zhong's army at night.

Zhao Zhu was taken to a large tent, and the lights were bright. Wu Yi was discussing plans for a sneak attack with several generals, including his deputy general Deng Xian, former Wuyang County garrison Ling Bao and Liu Xun, and Fei Shi, who joined the army.

Zhao Zhu entered the tent and said, "See General Wu."

Wu Yi asked with a smile: "How, have you met Huang Zhong?"

"White Yi met Huang Zhong and Yan Yan, and told them one by one according to General Wu's words, and it was obvious that they believed it without doubt."

Wu Yi laughed and said to everyone: "The best strategy is to say nine truths and one lie. Even Yan Yan would not doubt it. Huang Zhong thought that he would not be wary of our army. Tonight is the opportunity to steal the camp."

Everyone praised Wu Yi for his brilliant strategy. At this time, Fei Shi said, "But Huang Zhong is a meticulous person. Even if he believes it, he will pay attention to defense and will not make it so easy for us to succeed in stealing the camp. I hope General Wu will not be careless."

Wu Yi nodded, "Fei joins the army makes sense, we really can't be careless."

He pointed to the map and said to everyone: "The place where Huang Zhong camped was called Qianlonggang. Although the terrain was good, it also had weaknesses, that is, the slope was very smooth, there was no barrier on the hill, and it was difficult to defend, especially on the west side, which was directly facing the river and the rocks were rugged. We can start from the west, disrupt his military camp and force him to withdraw his troops."

Having said that, Wu Yi pointed to a valley and said to Ling Bao and Liu Xu: "The two can lead their headquarters to ambush here. When Huang Zhong withdraws his troops, they will attack from the side. As long as the Jingzhou army starts up, it will be our opportunity."

Ling Bao and Liu Xi bowed together and said, "Zhou Ling"

.........

Huang Zhong's army was stationed on a wide and flat hill, only slightly higher than the ground. There were sparse pine forests on the hill, with gentle slopes on it, and the west was close to the Minjiang River. The erosion of the river for millions of years has caused the rocks to be rugged on the west side of the hill, and the gaps between some rocks are even tens of feet deep.

A crescent moon travels through the dark clouds, sometimes dyeing the earth a bleak silver color, and sometimes drilling into the clouds, making the earth a darkness. In the intermittent darkness, dozens of black shadows are quietly climbing up the rocks in the southwest corner of the hill. They are very hidden and lurking down dozens of steps away from the Jingzhou military camp, waiting for the opportunity.

It was already two updates, but Huang Zhong did not fall asleep. He patrolled around the military camp as usual. This was a habit he had developed for decades. Whenever he went to war, he would be very cautious and would only return to the account to rest after the update.

Especially tonight, they marched lightly and did not carry more camping tools, such as camp bars, guns, etc., which made them seem insufficient to defend themselves and could only rely on patrols outside to discover danger in advance.

"The old general, it's already very late, go back to the tent to rest." Two personal soldiers persuaded him.

Before Huang Zhong finished speaking, he looked around carefully. There were rolling hills and large forests around him. Across this forest, there were plains several miles wide, and there were fertile land and farms.

Huang Zhong also felt that there was no big problem, so he turned around and walked towards his big tent. But as soon as he reached dozens of steps, a sudden burst of horse hooves came from behind him. Huang Zhong turned around and saw a patrolman riding a horse and shouting: "I found the enemy situation, there is an enemy situation."

Huang Zhong was shocked and immediately ordered: "Roll the alarm"

Dangdangdang alarm bell echoed on the hills, and the sleeping soldiers of Jingzhou soldiers were awakened one after another. At this time, the enemy had already reached the hills, and sentries reported urgently to Huang Zhong: "The old general, there are enemy attacks in the north and east."

Huang Zhong was so shocked that he was sweating on his forehead. He began to realize that he was fooled by Zhao Zhu. There was no internal strife within the Yizhou army. He said this to make him lose his vigilance. But they really relaxed their vigilance. Huang Zhong was upset, but he did not panic and ordered him to say, "Don't panic, gather defense immediately."

At this time, a soldier rushed to report: "Report to General Qi, General Yan is leading a thousand brothers to intercept the east. He said he was responsible for the east and asked the old general to arrange the north defense."

Huang Zhong nodded, he turned over and ran to the north, and saw a large number of people in the north, shouting from all over the sky, and many troops came to Shangang camp. Suddenly, a soldier pointed to the west and shouted: "Elder General, the camp has caught fire."

Huang Zhong turned around and saw a fire in the southwest corner. The simple camp where the soldiers were resting was lit. The fire took advantage of the wind and dozens of large tents were lit in an instant. Soon, the dry pine forest was ignited by the fire, and the flames soared into the sky, reaching more than ten feet high. Many burning tents were swept into the air by the wind and flew into the middle of the camp, igniting the camp in the middle. The soldiers had no time to collect the bills, and the hills were suddenly in chaos.

Huang Zhong realized that they could not defend the camp. If they did not retreat, they would be engulfed by the fire. He immediately ordered: "The army immediately evacuated the hills and retreated south."

"Dangdang"

The rapid retreat bell rang, and the Jingzhou troops, who were in panic, retreated down the hills one after another. Huang Zhong took the lead, Yan Yan abducted the latter, and 10,000 troops quickly retreated south.

After the pursuit of the troops behind, Wu Yi shouted: "Brothers, the enemy is defeated, chase after him."

Amid the sound of war drums, more than 10,000 Yizhou troops were chasing behind them. Huang Zhong's army had just run out several miles and passed a valley. Suddenly, a drum sounded, and fires burst into flames. Ling Bao and Liu Xu, who were ambushing in the valley, led 5,000 soldiers to kill, intercepting the retreating ones into two sections. The sudden attack made Jingzhou chaotic.

Seeing that the situation in the rear was critical, Huang Zhong shouted: "Call me back."

He led his army to turn around and rushed over. He met the general Liu Xi. Huang Zhong rose up to his power and roared. The galloping horse was like a fierce tiger. He instantly rushed to his eyes. A sword flashed and split Liu Xi into two sections. His army suddenly boosted its morale. Following Huang Zhong's counterattack, he soon killed the Yizhou army that cut off them and integrated the Jingzhou army company behind him.

At this time, Wu Yi led a large army to chase after him. The two armies fought together. Although Jingzhou fought back, they were outnumbered and retreated again. Wu Yi was overjoyed and shouted: "Tonight, you will be able to defeat the enemy, boys, chase them."

The Yizhou army was rushing like a rushing wave, chasing behind them. At this time, Jingzhou was already in chaos and could no longer organize effective resistance. Seeing that it was about to collapse, at this moment, a mountain road on the side suddenly sounded loudly, and a fire was lit up, and an army of more than a thousand people rushed out of the slanting.

As a general, he had a white horse and silver spear, a horse like a dragon, a man like a god, a war horse galloped and a silver spear assassinated from left to right, and was unstoppable. Wherever he passed, the Yizhou army was killed and overturned, with heavy casualties.

In an instant, the situation on the battlefield was reversed, and the Yizhou army retreated one after another. Seeing that the situation was not good, Wu Yi ordered to stop pursuing. The Yizhou army was blocked by the army coming from the mountain road.

At this time, Wu Yi recognized one of them as Pang Xi's aide Deng Zhi, but he didn't know the extremely brave white horse and silver spear. He urgently ordered his subordinates to "ask who came"

One person ran up and asked loudly, "Who will be here?"
