Chapter 312 Only caution when using troops

As he approached the exit of Jiange, a huge noise suddenly sounded in front of him. (")

Xiang Zhuang looked forward with his eyes fixedly, and saw a Han army suddenly turned out from the front and blocked the entrance of the canyon. He was the first to be a red-robed Han general, wearing heavy armor, riding a horse with a hip, and hitting each other hard with two iron halberds in his hand. He made a clanging explosion, and then he raised his head and shouted loudly: "The Great Han Zhou Guanfu is here, Xiang Zhuang is here to die!"

Zhou Guanfu, together with Wang Qi and Lu Tai, Zhou Guanfu, the three horses of Guanzhong?!

Xiang Zhuang suddenly felt a little anxious. Zhou Guanfu had the courage of ten thousand men, and there were at least thousands of elite Han soldiers behind him. Moreover, this Han army was obviously a real veteran. The real elite of the hundred battles was definitely not comparable to the Bashu County soldiers he encountered in Jiangzhou and Jiameng Pass before.

And what about the Tianlang Guard behind him?

Xiang Zhuang turned around and saw that there were less than 500 people left behind him, and most of them were injured. Hu Yan even had several feather arrows inserted on his shoulders and backs, which looked very scary.

The only thing to be celebrated is that the cliff near the exit of the canyon seemed to be unable to ambush people. When we arrived here, the Chu army finally no longer had to bear the flying arrows, rolling wood, beating stones and flying spears! However, how could the Tianlang Guard, who was exhausted and injured, beat thousands of elite Han army soldiers who were waiting for their work?

"Don't be crazy, I'll fight you!" Hu Yan was furious and came out with a sword.

"The person who came here reported his name. I will not kill the nameless person under the halberd!" Zhou Guanfu turned over and got off the horse and roared.

The canyon was not flat and it was not suitable for cavalry fighting. Otherwise, Zhou Guanfu would never mind using horsepower to kill the Chu army general who seemed not easy to mess with.

Hu Yanqing's sword strode towards Zhou Guanfu, shouting, "Some, the wolf general of the Great Chu - Hu Yan!"

"Hu Yan?! Look at this general taking your dog's head!" Zhou Guanfu grinned and suddenly shook his leap and rushed up. (")

In just a moment, the two of them had already met head-on. Huyan's Mute Moon Sword and Zhou Guanfu's Double Iron Sphur first came to a head-on collision without any clanging sound. With a "clang" sound, Huyan's iron tower-like body was shocked to retreat by three major steps. On the other hand, Zhou Guanfu on the opposite side was still motionless.

What a powerful stern force! Hu Yan's pupils shrank slightly in an instant.

Zhou Guanfu's eyes also narrowed slightly. Where did this guy come out? If the opponent hadn't been exhausted for a long time and was injured by an arrow, he would have never gotten any advantage in this attack. Apart from Xiangzhuang, when did the Chu army have such a difficult guy?!

After a slight pause, Hu Yan and Zhou Guanfu rushed forward again, and the swords and halberds fought together into a ball.

Hu Yan and Zhou Guanfu were in full swing, but Xiang Zhuang had a sharp plan in his mind. There was a Han army blocking the road ahead. If he forced a breakthrough, he would be hopeless. So, look back? The fire at the entrance of the canyon was probably extinguished, but the thousands of Han soldiers lying on the cliffs on both sides were probably also down the canyon.

The Chu army was blocked from front to back, and there were pursuers later. The Chu army really became a turtle in the jar!

Xiang Zhuang couldn't help but sigh to the sky. Since the wild horse's original palm soldiers, he has always taken risks and launched a gambling attack on the enemy with few attacks. And it has been done every time, but this time, it has been completely defeated! However, being buried in Jiange is not a loss. It's a pity that the great cause of Chu will be destroyed.

When Xiang Zhuang was sighing, Qu Bucai suddenly hurried to him with Tang Tong.

"Big King!" Tang Tong covered his gap on his face, which was cut by the Han army's flying spear, and gasped, "Little man, the little man knows that there is a small path here that can lead directly to Langzhong, and we can escape from this path."

"Sweet Intestines Path?" Xiang Zhuang was overjoyed when he heard this and said anxiously, "Where is it, where is it?"

"It's there, right there." Tang Tong stretched out his hand and pointed to the cliff on the left and said, "Did the king see that huge rock crevict? There is another cave behind the rock crevict, which can directly lead to the back mountain. The villain also accidentally discovered it when he came here to hunt. Later, he walked from the back mountain with his tribe members and found that he could actually go straight to the outside of Langzhong City."

"Let's go!" Xiang Zhuang did not hesitate at the moment, turned around and left.

#############

When Bai Mo brought the main force of the Han army to the exit of Jiange, Xiang Zhuang had already taken the Chu army away.

Zhou Guanfu led the Han army to chase into the rock crack, but was ambushed at the exit at the other end. After dozens of people were damaged, Zhou Guanfu quickly broke back. The rock crack was too narrow, and the Chu army was guarding outside like a cat guard rat, waiting for the Han army to run out one by one to die. After dozens of people were damaged, Zhou Guanfu gave up.

"Winning him, where are the Chu soldiers?" Bai Mo looked around and asked Zhou Guanfu.

Zhou Guanfu reached out and pointed to the rock crack on the left and sighed: "I ran from there."

"Oh." Bai Mo sighed regretfully, saying regretfully, "What a great opportunity, I couldn't kill Xiang Zhuang."

Bai Mo must be regretful. If he could kill Xiangzhuang in Jiange, Chu State would be afraid that it would immediately fall into civil strife, and the Han State could also eliminate a powerful enemy in an instant!

Zhou Guanfu disagreed and said, "Although he failed to kill Xiang Zhuang this time, he killed at least two thousand elite Chu soldiers. After this defeat, the Chu army would not think about trying to capture Hanzhong." After saying this, Zhou Guanfu said, "But Zuo Prime Minister, how can you be sure that Jiameng Pass has been lost? Why do you determine that the Chu army will attack Hanzhong in a hurry?"

When he got here in the morning, Bai Mo suddenly ordered the entire army to stop advancing, and then led 4,000 troops to climb up the cliffs on both sides of Jiange and ambushed. He ordered Zhou Guanfu to lead a thousand elite soldiers to ambush the northern exit of Jiange. At that time, Zhou Guanfu was wondering, Jiameng Pass had not yet been lost, so why did they do not go to help but ambushed in Jiange?

Until now, the battle has been won, and Zhou Guanfu has not yet figured out the reason.

Bai Mo waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Surviving this, let's not talk about this first. The Chu army was newly defeated and walked from this path. The Chu garrison at Jiameng Pass still doesn't know the news, and the garrison will definitely be empty. You should lead your troops to retake Jiameng Pass! As for the questions you just mentioned, I will explain my doubts to you on the way."

"Yes!" Zhou Guanfu responded with a loud noise, turned his head and shouted, "Call the order, the whole army gathers!"

With a command, the endless sound of horns sounded in the canyon. The Han army soldiers who were lying or sitting on the ground stood up one after another, packed their luggage and armed as quickly as possible, and then lined up in neat rows under the shouting of small schools at all levels. As Zhou Guanfu's right hand moved forward with force, the Han army line rolled forward again...

Zhou Guanfu came to Bai Mo again and said, "Left Prime Minister, can you tell me now?"

Bai Mo nodded and said, "There is only one explanation for victory, that is - be cautious when using troops!"

"Be careful when using troops?" Zhou Guanfu was confused when he heard this, and said in confusion, "What does the left prime minister mean?"

Bai Mo sighed and continued, "Actually, I cannot be sure that Jiameng Pass has fallen. The decision to give up rushing to Jiameng Pass and set up an ambush in Jiange was entirely out of caution. Xiang Zhuang was extremely deceitful in using troops, and Jin Xu was definitely not an opponent. Therefore, the possibility of Jiameng Pass being lost before we arrived was very high!"

Zhou Guanfu nodded silently. Just talking about using troops, Jin Xu could not catch up with Xiang Zhuang even if he beat the horse.

Bai Mo said again: "If Jiameng Pass has been lost, we will inevitably meet the Chu army on a narrow road when we go again. The victory or defeat in the fierce battle is really unpredictable. But if an ambush is set up in Jiange, the Chu army is very likely to be trapped. No matter how powerful Xiang Zhuang is, he would never have thought that the three thousand elites who are in reality will appear in Jiange at this time!"

"But..." Zhou Guanfu said again, "Why are you sure that Xiang Zhuang will take the risk of attacking Hanzhong after attacking Jiameng Pass? Although Xiang Zhuang could not have imagined that you and the three thousand tribes of the Untamed, Xi Juan, the Hanzhong County Governor, would definitely send troops after receiving Jin Xu's urgent report. Xiang Zhuang is not afraid that Xi Juan's army will ambush him halfway?"

Bai Mo said: "Of course Xiang Zhuang knew that Xi Juan would send troops, but he would never give up the opportunity to win in the danger!"

After saying this, Bai Mo said: "In recent years, I have read many examples of Xiangzhuang and found that this person is extremely optimistic about attacking. Even if he is in a desperate situation, he will never be willing to defend himself. It is said that this person's creed is that attack is the best defense, so I asserted that after Xiangzhuang attacks Jiameng Pass, he will definitely attack Hanzhong!"

"That's how fate comes." Zhou Guanfu nodded and said, "Left Prime Minister, I thought you were only political affairs and did not want to use military force. I'm afraid even the king and military advisor were misleading."

Bai Mo waved his hand and said calmly: "Just on the use of troops, today we should recommend King Han Xin of Qi. Secondly, it is probably my junior brother's turn. As for the true nature, it is just caution."

Zhou Guanfu frowned and said, "Zuo Xiang, is your junior brother really that powerful?"

Bai Mo said: "When we were studying at the school, our brothers and sisters debated the art of war, and we never won the original form."

"Dating the tactics of war? This is just a paper talk about war." Zhou Guanfu curled his lips and said disapprovingly, "Just judging by military strategy, there are probably few people who can match Zhao Kuo seventy years ago, but what about the end? The 400,000 Zhao troops commanded by Zhao Kuo did not let Qin general Bai Qi kill him? It's just that reading the tactics of war is useless."

"Zhao Kuo?" Bai Mo shook his head and said, "If King Zhao had not been foolish, he would have put the burden on Zhao Kuo at once. If King Zhao could let Zhao Kuo train and train under Lian Po's tent for a while, and after he had accumulated enough practical experience, how could he know that he was not another famous general who could be called the world with the four famous generals?"

Zhou Guanfu was silent. He had always hated military tactics and was quite dissatisfied with Bai Mo's words.

Bai Mo sighed and advised: "After reading military tactics, you may not necessarily become a famous general, but if you are not familiar with military tactics, you will definitely not become a famous general. If you have time, you should still read more military books."

Zhou Guanfu agreed submissively, but he didn't take it seriously.

Reading military books? He just felt a headache when he saw the small words like tadpoles.
