With the many soldiers and horses that suddenly broke out in the city of Taishan County, Lu Xun and Yan Liang led thousands of people without panicking, they had already adjusted their formations and waited for these enemy soldiers to chase, and a column of archers in the front row also set up longbows and waited for the enemy to step into the range.The enemy army is getting closer and closer, although it is dark at the moment, and the faces of those enemy soldiers cannot be seen clearly, but through the dark atmosphere, the officers and men of the special battalion have already felt the bloodthirsty impulse of the enemy.I saw that Yan Liang, who was the leader of the team, suddenly raised his arm, and a sliding and chopping action fell, only to hear the sound of "whoosh" in unison, the sound of the dragon's chant pierced the sky and night, and dressed in the camouflage of the night to meet the soldiers and horses of Taishan County who flew in.When the arrows left the string, the officers and men of the special battalion turned around and rode their horses and galloped wildly, without a trace of sluggishness, which shows that the orderly training of the officers and men of the special battalion on weekdays is by no means comparable to that of ordinary sergeants.Thousands of arrow feathers flew in unison, and the chasing Cao soldiers met, and suddenly a miserable scream sounded, because there were many enemies, and it was still dark night, these Cao soldiers couldn't see those arrow feathers coming from the sky at all, and when the arrow feathers were approaching, it was impossible to dodge.Although it is impossible for the 1,000 arrows of the special battalion to shoot a thousand Cao soldiers in seconds at the same time, it is more than enough to shoot and injure hundreds of Cao soldiers, and the grief and screams of hundreds of people are like ghostly voices spreading throughout the battlefield in this dark night.The guards standing in the gate tower of Taishan County shuddered even more when they heard these screams, although this battle has not yet ended, but many people have already thought of the end of the war.Although the number of soldiers and horses in Xuzhou was small, the retreat was rapid and orderly, and the entire army did not panic at all.On the contrary, it was Cao Bing, who was traumatized by the arrow feathers, because the fall of the sergeant in the front row caused the soldiers and horses behind to have no time to hold the reins, and all of them were hit and flew up, so that the people and horses behind couldn't help but stop to avoid more tail collisions.It's just that this pause gave Xuzhou soldiers and horses enough time to retreat, looking at those enemy soldiers swaggering into the jungle of the nearby mountains by moonlight, Gao Ci couldn't help but look up to the sky and scold to vent his inner anger.Although Gao Ci has no strategy, but it is not too stupid, if it is in the plain area, Gao Ci is of course not afraid to pursue the enemy, but the enemy breaks into the mountains and forests, Gao Ci does not dare to attack.The plains are different from the mountains and forests, even if it is night, but the plains are endless and there is no fear of any ambush of the enemy, but the mountains and forests are high trees in the dark night, especially the thousands of enemy soldiers hidden in it."
Retreat back to the city."
Seeing that he could no longer continue the pursuit at this moment, Gao Ci said in annoyance.Let's say that more than 500 soldiers of the special battalion who were disguised as Cao soldiers and ambushed in Taishan County knew that Gao Ci led the troops to pursue the army when they heard the strange sound in the city.After Gao Ci led the army out of the city, it didn't take long to hear the heart-rending screams, and everyone showed surprise, and from this scream alone, it could be judged that the enemy soldiers suffered many casualties in an instant.Hearing the sound of a pair of horses' hooves going away, the leader in charge of this lurk, Du Bo Kongying, knew that his army had retreated, and as soon as the army retreated, Gao Ci could not pursue, and he would return to the city with his men and horses.Seeing that Gao Ci was about to return, the other soldiers around him couldn't help but mutter: "Lord Dubo, should we take the city gate." ”Kong Ying hurriedly stopped: "No, it's almost midnight now, the situation outside can't be seen clearly or touched, there was a small battle just now, just the military division was trying to hit the enemy's morale, and now Gao Ci has led the troops back."
We are too short of time to start at the moment, unless we wait until the next time our army can delay Gao Ci's troops, we will have enough time to do it, everyone should hurry up and rest, and wait until tomorrow to take the opportunity to act. ”As soon as Gao Ci entered the city with his men and horses, he immediately closed the city gates, and tripled his troops to hold the city to prevent the enemy from sneaking up at night.Gao Ci was even more angry that he had gone out of the city to pursue the enemy army this time, but had lost hundreds of casualties, and had been reprimanded for half an hour before returning to the bedroom to rest tiredly.And the soldiers under his command dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, one by one complained in their hearts, and even some bold people couldn't help but burst into foul language: "If he hadn't been greedy for small profits at the beginning, how could it be the situation he is now." ”Cao Bingyi also chimed in: "That is, now that the achievements are falling short and the soldiers are lost, it is really hateful to shift all the responsibility to us." ”"I'm afraid that when the time comes, this matter will be reported to General Xiahoudun, and this guy will definitely try his best to excuse himself to shift the responsibility to us, and it is estimated that even if he dies, he will drag us to be buried with him."
Cao Bingbing also said.Cao Bingding even expressed everyone's thoughts: "Hmph, who called us just some small soldiers, we were born to be the substitutes and shields of these people." ”Cao Bingjia spoke again: "Even if our fate is not good and we follow the wrong person, if we are soldiers under the command of King Zhao, we will not only be invincible, but also have many benefits, the elderly have medical care, children are enrolled in the church, and women are in the weaving workshop, and they will only be exploited here every day." ”This time, these words expressed the hearts of many soldiers.However, everyone just secretly complained behind their backs, and these words were definitely not what these little soldiers dared to say on the table.Tonight's Taishan County is quite stable, but it is the bitterness of those soldiers who defend the city, and the battles and conflicts launched in one day all ended in the defeat of Party B, and the strength of Xuzhou's soldiers and horses has been like a ghost to disturb everyone's heartstrings.Especially at night, when the main force went out of the city to pursue, it encountered the opponent's bow and arrow sneak attack, and the earth-shattering screams emitted could not disappear in the hearts of everyone for a long time.But Lu Xun's side slept very comfortably, and today's riot in Taishan County made the other party panic, like a frightened bird, even if ten brave people suffered losses, they did not dare to pursue in the dark night."
Strategist, if our army starts fighting seriously just now, then the enemy's 10,000 men and horses may not be the opponent of our army.I was so unwilling to watch them go back like this. ”Returning to the camping place, Yan Liang couldn't help but say with pity.After hearing this, Lu Xun smiled and said: "Don't feel sorry for the general, the lord once said that everything has its two sides, and our goal this time is not to kill the enemy army and take the enemy city."
Tomorrow, if we lure the enemy out of the city and give the more than 500 athletes who are in ambush in the city enough time to take Taishan County, then we will win this battle without a fight, and these Cao troops will also fall into the hands of our army, so that the general will be able to capture the two enemy soldiers without much effort, and it will be quite advantageous for our army to garrison and defend again in the future.If we start killing, I am afraid that it will make the local people feel cold, the soldiers will be indifferent, and the tactics of attacking people's hearts are Lu Xun's first strategy. ”"The military advisor is really great wisdom, and Yan Liang admires it."
Yan Liang immediately sighed.Lu Xun sighed at the same time: "This is also what the lord taught, capture the thief first capture the king, attack the enemy first attack the heart, the lord's words are like the sage of the king of soldiers." ”Early the next morning, Yan Liang asked people to start a fire to cook, at Lu Xun's request, everyone did not leave rations, all of them were full of food and drink, this was the last battle, if they failed, they could only go home and go hungry all the way back.In the entire breakfast restaurant, many soldiers did not look like they were going to the battlefield, but more like they were having a dinner party, everyone was eating and drinking with laughter, and even Lu Xun and Yan Liang were also integrated into it, and the soldiers of Cao Jun who were locked in the wooden prison couldn't help but be moved.Immediately, these Cao army soldiers felt that an incredible discussion had happened, and they saw that the other general, that is, Yan Liang, led a team of men and horses to carry two pots, a pot of rice grain and a pot of meat and vegetables to the wooden prison.In public, he opened the cell, moved the two pots in, and then said, "Your brothers have suffered again, and today you are guests in our military tent."
We are all the people of the Great Han, but here we are killing each other, and my lord knows that you are also fighting with our army because of the military order that must not be violated.But rest assured, as long as we can capture Taishan County today, we will definitely not harass any family in the city, and when the time comes, we will release you as soon as we enter the city, and you want to abandon the army and go home or continue to stay in the army, you can choose.If our army is defeated this time, we will go home, and when the time comes, we will let you go unscathed, and we will not do anything to embarrass you. ”Yan Liang's words were completely influenced by Lu Xun's words, originally Yan Liang wanted to execute these prisoners to prevent these thousands of people from taking the opportunity to break out of the prison and riot in the rear when the army attacked, but this idea was stopped by Lu Xun.I only heard Lu Xun say: "If our army only wants to defeat the enemy army and leave today, then the general can completely slaughter and slaughter the city."
But the purpose of our army today is to take the city, to make it a base, and not to do anything that is hateful, and some of these sergeants must be locals, and their families are in the city.If they learn that we have committed this massacre, I am afraid that they will hold a grudge against our army, and when our army attacks the city in the future, these enemy troops will fight to the death. ”"Yan Liang is just worried that if the siege of the city fails this time, then they can only let them go back, and when the time comes, these people will re-enter the enemy army after they go back, which will also be a threat to our army.However, hearing the words of the sergeant, it is not unreasonable, if you can take the city and take them into your own possession, it is also a wonderful thing. ”Yan Liang couldn't help but show a hint of joy after speaking.Looking at the rice and meat dishes in front of them, some of the Cao army ambush soldiers who were locked in the cage couldn't help but have tears in their eyes, they had never eaten these foods when they were marching, and it would be good to be able to eat enough every time, don't think about any meat and vegetables at all.This time he was imprisoned by the enemy ranks, and everyone even thought of a tragic ending, just hoping to live one more day is a day, and one more time is a moment.But this time, when I saw that the enemy general and commander not only ate and enjoyed themselves with the soldiers under his command, but also personally served these meals to his own captives, an indescribable feeling germinated in the hearts of everyone.This is a treatment they have never enjoyed since they joined the army
