When they encountered the dense forest again, Luo Zhang did not move forward. Instead, he hid the horse and led the two of them towards the dense forest.
Sure enough, as Luo Zhang guessed, there were also a large number of Gaoguli people hiding in this dense forest.
The matter has become obvious at this point. Even if Luo Zhang doesn't understand the art of war, he has watched the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. With so many people deployed outside the city, it is obvious that he wants to carry out a sneak attack while they are setting up their camp.
If they were to carry out a sneak attack, they might succeed. Crossing the river would have already exhausted the Tang soldiers, and after walking for half a day, their vigilance would have been greatly reduced. This was the best time, and I don’t know which grandson thought of it. With this move, it seems that Gaogouli is still capable!
The Gaoguli people were discovered in two dense forests in succession, which disrupted Luo Zhang's purpose of continuing to explore Jian'an City. After exiting the dense forest, Luo Zhang immediately turned his horse's head back towards the way he came. In this situation, he Cheng Yaojin must be informed immediately so that he can be prepared to avoid encountering an enemy ambush and suffering heavy losses.
In addition, since the enemy can ambush and attack, why can't they take advantage of the situation and launch a counterattack?
Maybe this counterattack will make Jian'an City self-defeating without attacking!
By the time Luo Zhang rushed back to the Tang army and saw Cheng Yaojin, half an hour had passed. Fortunately, the army had a large number of people and its marching speed was not that fast. It had not yet reached the first dense forest.
Seeing that Luo Zhang was back, Cheng Yaojin said with a smile: "Luo Zhang, how was the harvest today? Did you catch any wild boar? The roasted wild boar tasted really good a few days ago. If I can eat it again, I will have no regrets." !”
"Yes, the roasted wild boar is charred on the outside and tender on the inside. It tastes absolutely amazing. I didn't expect you, Luo Zhang, to have such skills. It's really beyond my expectation!" Niu Jinda followed up with praise.
Luo Zhang smiled bitterly and said: "I tell you two, please stop making fun of me. Let's go and find a place. I have something important to say!"
Seeing Luo Zhang's serious face, it didn't look like he was joking. Cheng Yaojin and others looked at each other and then rode their horses to follow Luo Zhang to a slope not far away.
When they arrived at the slope, several people dismounted and randomly found a stone to make it. At this time, Cheng Yaojin spoke first: "If you have anything to say, just tell me. Don't waste time. We have to rush before dark." Arrive at Jian'an City and set up a camp!"
Luo Zhang waved his hand and interrupted Cheng Yaojin: "Build a camp? I'm afraid it will be burned down before you can build a camp!"
"Huh? How do you say this?" Cheng Yaojin was slightly stunned and asked.
"How can I tell you? I just went on a hunting trip and found traces of the Gaoguli people in two dense forests dozens of miles away from Jian'an City. According to my survey, it is a suitable place for us to camp. I want to come to Gaoguli People want to take advantage of the moment when we are setting up the camp to launch a sneak attack on us. You said, now that we are short of men and horses, what will be the result if we are attacked while setting up the camp?" Luo Zhang asked rhetorically.
"What? Is there an ambush?" Cheng Yaojin was shocked when he heard this and stood up abruptly.
"There is indeed an ambush. After looking at the number of people, there are quite a few. I am afraid there are 20,000 to 30,000 people!" Luo Zhang said.
"These Goguli bastards actually want to attack us. We should be damned!"
"Fortunately, we were discovered by Luo Zhang this time, otherwise we would have been attacked by someone when we were setting up camp, and we would have suffered heavy casualties!"
Everyone was talking to each other, and most of them cursed Gao Gouli for being shameless.
"Okay, stop talking. Now let's discuss how to deal with the sneak attack by the Gaoguli people!" Cheng Yaojin pressed his hands to stop everyone's curses and complaints.
"What's there to say? Just lead the troops and wipe out these people. Let's see if they still dare to attack us!" Niu Jinda said bluntly.
Luo Zhang rolled his eyes and said: "The enemies are hiding in the dense forest, how can we destroy them? It is not suitable for war horses to move there. Should our soldiers fight hand-to-hand with the Gaoguli people? This is not a good idea!"
"We might as well wait for work. Since the Gaoguli people want to sneak attack on our camp, then we will let them sneak attack. However, they can only attack an empty camp. When the Gaoguli people arrive, we will attack from outside. Surround them. This way, we will have very few casualties. However, when the panicked Gaoguli people find out that the sneak attack failed, they will definitely be confused. When the time comes, we will kill them like chickens!" Hou Junji's eyes flashed. Said movingly.
Luo Zhang glanced at Hou Junji and secretly thought that he did have the talent of a general, and this method coincided with him.
As soon as this statement came out, there was indeed a burst of applause, and everyone agreed with Hou Junji's opinion. However, Cheng Yaojin still asked Luo Zhang one more question: "Luo Zhang, what do you think?"
Luo Zhang nodded in agreement and said: "General, this is a very clever plan. If so, our army can win the battle!"
"Okay, let's do it this way. We will continue to move forward, pretending not to know anything. When we get to the place, we will lead the troops and leave, leaving only a small number of people to guard the construction of the camp." Cheng Yaojin Finally made the decision.
