"My lord, be wise!" Yao Guangxiao said after flattering him, "If what I expected is correct, if Yue Fei really wants to take this opportunity to ambush our army, he will have to lay at least two ambushes this time. , or even three ambushes, and only the last one will be true."
Previously, although Yue Fei decided to withdraw his troops shortly after the appearance of the Tengjia Army, he did so without any chaos. He was still orderly and did not reveal any flaws.
In this case, even if a pursuit is necessary, a brief pursuit is usually enough. But Zhu Yuanzhang, Liu Xiu and the others kept chasing them just to make Yue Fei and the others think that Zhu Yuanzhang, Liu Xiu and the others were eager for a decisive battle.
Moreover, Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Xiu also had absolute reasons to be anxious. Once Zhu Yuanzhang, Liu Xiu and others delay here for too long and are attacked from behind by Xiang Yu, the situation in Jingbei will inevitably fall into the worst situation.
Therefore, at this time, Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Xiu had sufficient reasons to rush to a decisive battle. With a famous general like Yue Fei, Yao Guangxiao believed that he would never let go of such an opportunity.
"And if the enemy has a series of ambushes, our army must not step into the first few ambushes! Otherwise, Yue Peng will be suspicious!" Yao Guangxiao continued.
The so-called serial ambush is usually used when the enemy is particularly difficult to deal with. Although the previous ambush was a real ambush, in fact, the opponent had already been prepared for this ambush to be seen through, and the real focus was on the next ambush.
After the previous ambush, the vigilance will be much lower than before the first ambush. In this way, the success rate of the next ambush will be greater.
And if they stepped into the first ambush, they would definitely arouse Yue Fei's suspicion. After all, since the ambushing party has laid out a series of ambushes, it naturally recognizes the ability of the ambushed party.
In other words, the ambush party believes that they can see through the ambush set up ahead, and for a person like Yue Fei, no matter how many ambush he has in a series, there is a high probability that the one that really works will think that they can't see through it.
Therefore, they only need to maintain normal vigilance and pursue. During this process, they must not be too smart.
And if they really want to pull off a trick and plot against Yue Fei, they must not let Yue Fei see any flaws in advance.
"What the military advisor said is reasonable, and we must be cautious at this time!" Zhu Yuanzhang nodded in agreement, and then called a general to remind Yang Su and Zhu Di at the front.
……………………
"Slow, stop!" Yang Su waved to the generals around him.
"General Yang, something is wrong, why did you suddenly stop the pursuit!" Yangzhou Army General Lu Er couldn't help but ask aloud.
"The terrain here is flat, making it easy for cavalry to charge. And General Lu, looking around, there are a lot of pits and slopes, making it easy for the army to lurk! If Yue Fei ambush a cavalry here, our army will definitely suffer heavy losses! "The person who spoke was not Yang Su, but Zhu Di beside Yang Su.
Zhu Di is also a man who knows soldiers. He can see at a glance that the terrain is indeed easy to ambush. Especially for a force like the Jin Army, where the cavalry has an absolute advantage, it is a natural ambush location.
Ning Bobiao, Lu Er, Wang Yanzhang, Ma Chao and others originally thought that nothing was wrong, but after Zhu Di explained this, when they looked at the pits or bags in front of them, they couldn't help but feel murderous aura overflowing. , and immediately became wary.
"General Ning, please ask the general to quickly lead five thousand soldiers and horses to investigate this place!" Yang Su said to the general behind Zhu Di.
Sending out soldiers and horses to investigate, this group of soldiers and horses always has certain risks. No matter what, no one knows whether there is an ambush here. In this battle, his men had already taken the lead and contributed a lot, so it was time for Zhu Yuanzhang's men to contribute more.
Ning Bobiao did not agree immediately, but looked at Zhu Di without any trace. Yang Su could not order him yet. After all, Yang Su was only their ally, not their boss. Zhu Di's orders can only have an effect on Zhu Yuanzhang when he is not around.
Zhu Di quietly made a gesture, asking Ning Bo to act according to Yang Su's words. Zhu Di was at least 70% sure that even if Yue Fei really arranged an ambush here, Ning Bobiao and the others would probably not be in any danger.
Zhu Di took a brief look and realized that this was the most suitable battlefield for cavalry. If an ambush was to be used, at most 15,000 cavalry could be hidden.
If this cavalry uses an ambush, it can indeed cause them a lot of trouble. If they are caught off guard, they can suffer a lot of losses.
However, once the ambush here is discovered in advance, a head-on fight will do them no good at all. After all, the gap in numbers between the two sides is a big problem.
And if Ning Bobiao ordered a small group of troops to conduct a search, the Jin generals would definitely realize that they had been discovered. When an ambush cannot be carried out, the enemy's cavalry units will inevitably choose to use their speed advantage to retreat directly instead of forcing a battle.
Of course, if the enemy army not only does not retreat, but actually fights head-on, that would be a good thing. Ning Bobiao only needed to entangle this enemy for a moment, and their army could surround them and eat them.
Sure enough, Zhu Di's judgment was not wrong. Ning Bobiao's troops had just been searched. Chang Yuchun, who realized that the flaw had been discovered, immediately led the 10,000 cavalrymen under him to retreat without stopping.
When Yue Fei asked Chang Yuchun to ambush here, he had never expected that the ambush would work. The real highlight was yet to come.
Therefore, although the ambush was not successful, Chang Yuchun left without too much unwillingness. Seeing through his ambush is not a skill, being able to survive it is a skill!
"Send the order and continue marching." After forcing out Chang Yuchun's ambush, Yang Su and Zhu Di did not waste any more time here, but continued in the direction where Yue Fei's main force retreated.
"promise."
Zhu Di and Yang Su led their troops and continued to move forward. After walking for more than ten miles, they arrived at a dense forest.
In this dense forest, Yang Su used a small force to lure out the ambush here. Without giving them enough opportunities to set fire, he surrounded the troops and quickly killed and wounded 3,000 Jin troops before continuing to move forward. And go.
