Chapter 754 If you can't set up an ambush, you still have to face it hard

To fight an ambush, we always make a mistake by being prepared. Even if we are hostile to each other, Shi Jianyan and Xia Luqi, the two tiger generals, also thought of going together.

Suddenly, he realized that it was a dangerous place to go between the deep ridges at the foot of Linlu Mountain in front of him that was extremely easy to set up. Xia Luqi immediately observed with great care.

When the army has reached more than 10,000 people, easy-to-identify traces will be left on the road. However, Shaluqi ordered his troops to stop moving and formed a formation on the spot, and sent more than a dozen meticulous scouts to explore the deep ridges at the foot of the mountain.

When the scout replied, there were traces of enemy troops along the way, but it was difficult to find them at the foot of Linlu Mountain... Xia Luqi snorted coldly after hearing this, pointed his gun in front of him, and said to the general gathered around him:

"Can't it be possible that the Jin army led by Shi Jianyan have wings on its back, and can it fly over Linwushan? If he had turned around before, heading north to return to the mansion, and returned to the territory of the Hedong army; if he wanted to go south like Weizhou, and was adjacent to our headquarters in the capital, His Majesty sent several military brigades to the north, and Shi Jianyan was alone in the process of fighting to the gates of hell?

Shi Jianyan led the Jin army, and only by advancing eastward into Xiangzhou could he attack Ge Jie. But since he was bound to invade Linlu and other counties under the rule of Xiangzhou, why did he deliberately hide his traces when he passed by?"

Xia Luqi was very clear, and his appearance of analyzing the enemy situation to his subordinates was very similar to Shi Jianyan, who was in the same position just not long ago...

When the two armies confront each other, they must send out scouts to explore the terrain and landform ahead, including where there is a drinking water source, where to set up a camp, and where to rest, and promptly informing the places where there are mountains to open roads and bridges to meet water... Of course, it is particularly important to detect whether there are any enemy ambushing in front of them.

But no matter how delicate and capable the scouts are, they cannot have the magical power of omniscience and omnipotence. Moreover, from ancient times to the present, successful ambush cases are common. Not only Xia Luqi, but also the generals and military academies under his command also know the principle that soldiers are very fast. In the end, it is impossible to be careful step by step. If you encounter a mountain, you will stop. You wish you could go through all the deep mountains and ridges you will dare to continue to march, and then you will have no need to fight this battle.

However, as long as we can be targeted, we can basically determine that there is a high probability that an enemy will be ambushed in the area ahead... Even though many of the rude generals under Xia Luqi have never seen Sun Tzu's Art of War, such as "The moving trees come; the obstruction of many grasses is suspicious; the rising birds are hidden; the terrifying beasts are overturned"... The clichés of military strategists have never eaten pork, seen pigs run away, and they are used to fighting wars, and they have rich practical experience.

Therefore, after Xia Luqi's warning in advance, the generals and military academies, and even soldiers formed formations on the ground, all gathered their attention and observed the deep and quiet ridge roads on Lin Lu vigilantly. Even though they had not yet discovered that the enemy ambush had exposed their bodies, they all realized that something was wrong in front of them.

But even though it is basically confirmed that there must be ambush in front, how should this battle be fought? Xia Luqi is nearby, and a general immediately said:

"The general really expected the enemy to be the first! It was just that the Jin people set up ambush in the mountains and occupied high places to hide their traces. But what should we do?"

When Sha Luqi heard this, he grinned. He, a military general who made many famous achievements on the battlefield, did not have the leisure and elegance of literati and poets who devoted themselves to the mountains and rivers, nor did he have the environmental awareness of setting fire to the mountains and sitting in prison in later generations. In the past, when the two armies were fighting, as long as they could maximize the killing of the enemy, it would be a good plan...She Luqi immediately ordered:

"It's not easy? Let's see where the mountains are most likely to set up ambushers, so I ordered the archers to prepare to shoot rockets, then take the firewood and grease from the baggage truck, and pile it up to the foot of the mountain. Just set the fire on the mountain, and see how long can the Jin people hide!"

...After learning that the enemy troops of the Wei Dynasty were about to pass through the ridge below soon, the Tang army, who were originally hidden in Linwu Mountain, was ready to go, and waited for thousands of arrows to be fired. Then a sharp cavalry suddenly rushed out and attacked the enemy's chaos, and tried to annihilate the Southern Dynasties army that was chasing him as much as possible.

But two cups of tea have passed. It is estimated that the Wei army should have passed the ridge under their noses, but they waited for a while, but there was still no enemy figure within their sight.

Many Hou Tang soldiers curled up and hid their bodies and were anxious and anxious. When they noticed something was different, they suddenly heard the accomplices who were supposed to be silent on the side near the foothills and screamed in surprise. Looking at the other side, they saw that there was a fire spreading on that side, and the fireworks gradually enveloped this side, and there was still a situation of continuing to spread!

The trees and grass that were originally used to hide their bodies became the carrier for the fire to continue to spread. Then the more violent flames appeared, extending towards him... The first thing that realized was that the Wei army not only stopped moving, but also wanted to ignite the fire to death, and the soldiers of the Later Tang Dynasty warned him. Soon after the wind helped the fire, the thick smoke came to his face, which made many ambush cough violently, and she couldn't help but burst into tears.

Feeling the rolling heat waves, the Hou Tang soldiers lying in the mountains, even if they could fight on the battlefield, were used to the bloody scenes of chopping their arms and legs, even breaking their heads and belly cracking... But they would rather get a few shots, and none of them would be willing to lie motionlessly in the hidden place among the grass, and be burned to death by the spreading flames...

Not only the ambush soldiers, but also the generals and officials from all departments jumped up and shouted loudly to move to the depths of the mountains. However, a large number of generals and soldiers rushed out of the mountains and rushed towards the depths of the mountains. Of course, the target was exposed, and the Wei army leaders on the ridge road immediately locked in their tracks...

Rows of step bows were raised, and the clusters of feather arrows that were tilled on the string were wrapped in oil-soaked linen. They lit the fire and immediately started to burn.

As the generals of the Wei army shouted loudly and trembled, the bowstrings formed by rockets fell toward the enemy soldiers who were desperately moving towards the inside of the mountains.

As soon as the wave of arrows was over, the archers of the team immediately picked up the bow and drew the arrows, the rear row had already raised their bows, ignited the linens on the arrows, and then sprinkled a rain of arrows. At present, the ambush of the Later Tang Dynasty was running fast on the slopes, and the distance between the spreading wildfires, the better. Where can I have the time to form a formation on the spot and then counterattack the enemy from a high point?

Among the soldiers who were rushing and running, some people suddenly felt as if they were looking up and saw that the sky was falling like a sudden drop of fire. In addition to the howling sound of the wind passing through the air, you could also faintly hear the flames burning cloth, and the whistling sound of the rapid falling in the air...

Some soldiers were hit by the fire rain falling in the air and immediately fell to the ground, then rolled down from the slopes. More rockets were nailed into the trees on the mountain, and gradually, fires ignited... The ambushers ambushed in Linwu Mountain were affected by the fire, and screamed and alarmed sounds sounded from the running crowd, which became more and more fierce like a spreading wildfire!

Shi Jianyan, who was still waiting for a hard time in the valley, was shocked to find that there was a fire rising on both sides of the originally quiet ridge road. The screams of the soldiers under his command also clearly came into his ears... When he realized what Xia Luqi had used, Shi Jianyan was shy and annoyed, and his anger immediately rushed to Tianling Gai!

Just now, he swears that the Wei general Xia Luqi will definitely chase after him and set up an ambush in Linlu Mountain. He will probably defeat the enemy in one fell swoop. As a result, he didn't expect that the other party would play such a trick, which was equivalent to a slap in the face, and slapped hard on his face... How could Shi Jianyan hold back? He immediately jumped up and roared:

"Zhi Mom! Since Xia Luqi was not trapped, he would go out and fight him!"
