"Soldiers are expensive and quick!"
In the night, Shen Tuguan was riding on a horse, his voice full of solemnity. During this northern detour, he had already discussed with Liu Chen that he would lead his headquarters first and use a rush march strategy to block the retreat of the 60,000 Shu people.
Wearing only light armor, a single sword, and only three days' worth of dry food on him.
Shentu Guan's more than 50,000 troops marched without stopping, but overnight they reached the north of Lizhou.
After dismounting and ascending to the high ground, Shen Tuguan stared coldly ahead with his eyes fixed.
The mighty army of Shu soldiers did not disappear. They were still lighting their torches in the night as they meandered their way under the mountains.
"General Shentu, the shoal where the Shu people landed has been cut off by Beiyu. In other words, it is absolutely impossible for these 60,000 Shu troops to return to Dingbeiguan."
"Okay!" Shen Tuguan's face was still calm, "In the past, when King Xu Shu entered Shuzhou, he met a young general who was talking about military affairs on paper, and he was able to successfully attack Chengdu. Today, this situation is never similar. Although it is poisonous owl's Disciple, but with such a posture, the position is exposed while marching at night. No matter how you look at it, he looks like a mediocre general."
"Pass this general's order, use the sound of military drums and the method of phalanx to drive the more than 60,000 Shu troops to the desperate position on the border of Sizhou. If the Shu people want to fight, we will cooperate with our friendly colleagues to encircle and annihilate them first. !”
"Shoot the thunderous arrow!"
Not long after, a harsh sound pierced the air, exploding in the night.
…
"Singing Dysprosium Arrow——"
A veteran from a noble family in Beiyu, more than fifty miles away from Shentu Guan, also roared angrily.
…
"Signal, shoot the arrows, surround and annihilate the Shu people!"
The arriving general Du Gong pointed his sword at the night sky and shouted loudly.
…
"Signal, call Dysprosium." Liu Chen rode on the horse, looking up at the front, his voice was extremely cold. Behind him, there was a mighty army of more than 100,000 people, with no end in sight in the night.
…
"Send the order, please colleagues from all battalions, work together to defeat the enemy this time!" As the main formation, Chang Sheng stood in the night wind, condescendingly looking at the more than 60,000 Shu troops entering the urn, and he was filled with murderous intent for a moment. face.
…
"The vanguard camp Chang Xiao is willing to take the lead in defeating Shu!"
"Sell rice to the army and kill the enemy with fire——"
Under Chang Xiao's orders, the rice-selling army of five thousand people held torches and knives and moved forward to kill them.
There wasn't much moonlight, and the world around him was only illuminated by torches, which were constantly swayed by the wind, shaking the entire mountain range as if it was about to tip over.
"The Shu people are just ahead!" Chang Xiao squinted forward, judging the light of the Shu people's march. Like Shen Tuguan, he only felt that this young general from Xishu had no talent and only relied on his reputation to get to the top.
After all, no matter how you say it, this person seems to have appeared all of a sudden.
"Nightbow!"
Behind the 5,000 rice-selling army, there were more than 10,000 Beiyu infantry bows following. After identifying the direction of the Shu people, they immediately broke down their strings under the narrow mountains and threw down the flying arrows. In the Shu array.
A shameless scream.
But Chang Xiao was still not satisfied, so he asked people to change the fire arrows. Once he could see the enemy's formation clearly, he, the vanguard general, would completely break into the enemy's formation and confuse the Shu people's position.
"volley!"
The fire arrows all over the sky, with their trailing smoke, were like meteor showers, intertwining into a huge fire net in mid-air, heading towards the Shu cage below.
Chang Sheng opened his eyes wide, and under the reflection of the fire arrows, he saw clearly that it was indeed the Shu people's phalanx, and he roared with joy.
"Come with me and kill—"
"Roar!"
The 5,000-strong army of rice sellers, plus the 10,000-strong infantry archers, acted as the first round of charge. They thought they had all the advantages and began to kill with swords and shields.
…
"Send the order, the Chinese army stabilizes the shield array." On the other side of the mountain, the puppy Fu stood on the high ground, with one hand holding the long sword and the other pointing far ahead.
He indeed ordered the torches for the night march to be lit.
But those arrays of torches are all from the Sword and Shield Camp of Western Shu. In other words, these sword and shield battalions deliberately exposed their positions to attract enemy troops to attack them.
Instead, he buried two groups of men on the left and right on both sides of the Zhong Saber Shield Camp, slightly further away.
"General Han, the vanguard battalion from Beiyu is coming!"
"Fight." The puppy waved his hands angrily.
"Qiying, shoot signal arrows!"
woo woo woo woo.
The sound of horn trombones suddenly sounded under the narrow mountains.
Chang Xiao, who led more than 10,000 people and rushed forward, felt vaguely uneasy after hearing the ox-horn trombone. Just as he expected, not long after, a sky-shattering roar suddenly sounded from both sides of the mountains. Countless black shadows kept coming over like a rising tide.
"Torch!" The Xishu generals who rushed to kill one by one shouted like thunder.
Just like a prairie fire, the sides of the mountains suddenly became bright. There were also fire arrows that retaliated and were thrown down condescendingly.
More than 10,000 people from the Northern Chongqing Army were trapped in it. The fire started caused continuous screams.
Chang Xiao raised his head and laughed in anger.
"General Chang, we have been counterattacked!" A confidant came over hurriedly.
"Mo Li, drag them to death, the rear army is ready to arrive!" Chang Xiao looked like he was crazy and had no intention of retreating.
"Sell rice troops, line up in formation and raise shields——"
The more than 5,000 rice-selling troops fought fiercely and bravely, and did not have many troubles. Instead, the tens of thousands of archers who followed were ambushed by the Shu army and shot to death.
The fallen fire arrows burned violently along the dead grass and trees. Many bows that could not return to the formation were suddenly submerged in the sea of fire.
"Hold them, hold them! Don't leave, don't leave!" In the firelight, Chang Xiao raised his head, his eyes filled with anger.
…
"Send the order, after the Weizi camp is destroyed, the rest of the people will march immediately." Xiaoxiao Fu made a decision immediately without any hesitation.
On the contrary, Ruan Qiu next to him was a little puzzled.
"General Han, we have carried out a beautiful round of counter-suppression, why should we retreat now?"
"The army from Beiyu will definitely be coming from behind. In just an hour or two, we will be surrounded and surrounded." The puppy Fu turned around and walked away calmly.
Ruan Qiu, who was still a little confused, thought for a long time before he hurriedly followed.
Not long after, the more than 60,000 Shu troops, with almost no damage at all, continued to move forward along the long and narrow road in the mountains.
On the war horse, Puppy Fu held his head high, thinking about what to do next.
The river bank, the river bank has not yet arrived. The more than 60,000 people he led were not a lone army like a lost dog, but a decoy army that succeeded by surprise.
…
At night and dawn, the sky in the distance gradually turned white.
Chang Sheng stood on a high rock with a puzzled look on his face.
Chang Xiao, who serves as the vanguard battalion, is also a veteran of Beiyu. The rice selling troops under his command are even more brave. But it happened that in a night attack, they did not gain any advantage at all, and even killed two or three thousand riflemen.
"That disciple of Poisonous Eagle doesn't look like a simple person." Chang Sheng said in a deep voice. But soon, the fighting spirit returned to his eyes.
"Send an order to have the men and horses of General Shen Tu Guan attack the 60,000 Shu army as if to drive them away. Whenever they reach an open mountain, let the men and horses of the encirclement and annihilation group gather together to charge and kill. Within one month, as my army My long-cherished wish is to send this Shu army back to the Seventy Miles Tomb Mountain in Chengdu!"
