Chapter 217 Outwitting the Trunk Tunnel "Jing Lin, good job.
Thanks to you saying that important military information came from the dry tunnel, the widow was able to get out, haha, I didn't expect you, an honest man, to lie. ” Jing Lin said embarrassedly: "King, there is indeed an important military situation from the dry tunnel, and the husband has already abandoned the city and fled. ” "So fast" Qingji was stunned.
According to the time, Sun Wu should have arrived at the dry tunnel for seven days, the dry tunnel is one of the acropolis of Gusu, the role of the acropolis is to garrison troops, protect the capital nearby, and obey the transfer of the monarch, so although the acropolis is a military building, but to be precise, it is a military camp, not a difficult to attack Xiongguan dangerous pass.
Before Qingji rushed to Wu State, Sun Wu passed around Gusu City, and when he cut off the outer wings, he had made a dry tunnel.
At that time, because the king of Wu was fighting in the state of Wu, there were not many soldiers in the acropolis, so the siege of the city and the plundering of the village were very smooth.
This time, the situation was very different when the troops were stationed in the dry tunnel.
The husband is not a reckless man, he marches and arranges the formation, and the deployment of troops and generals are unique, in terms of personal martial arts, his reputation in Wuzhong is second only to Qingji, and the experience of the battle array is more than Qingji.
Since he arrived at the dry tunnel, he made full use of the terrain of the dry tunnel to re-carry out a simple repair and arrangement, this time Sun Wu sent troops to crusade, because a large number of people in the city of Gusu were forced to join the army, although the combat power is limited, after all, it is also tens of thousands of soldiers with swords, guns and halberds, Qing Ji did not dare to be careless, so left more troops to besiege the city.
In addition, the Yue country Goujian came with great fanfare, but in the end suddenly lost his army traces, Qingji could not help but guard against him, and made Liang Huzi lead a road army to follow Sun Wu on the flank, stationed between the dry tunnel and Gusu, as a mobile force, in case of emergency, in this way, Sun Wu brought the army in the number of only slightly better than the man, although the dry tunnel is not dangerous to the city, the defender always takes advantage of some advantages, although Sun Wu is quite unique in strategy and tactics, but the battlefield competition, in the end, is the strength to speak, Without the advantage of troops, even if it is a generation of soldiers, it is impossible to easily defeat the other party, not to mention that the husband is not a mediocre talent, so Qingji really did not expect the husband to be defeated so quickly.
"Where's the messenger," Qingji asked excitedly.
Jing Lin said: "The messenger is now waiting for the king in the big tent. ” "Okay, let's go and find out."
Qingji hurried to the big tent of the Chinese army, and the generals who had received the news, such as Baoyu and Candle Yong, had already rushed over, and were asking the messenger about the situation.
As soon as the celebration arrived, the messenger began to talk again.
It turned out that Sun Wu also expected that at this time, the husband would inevitably consolidate the dry tunnel city, and if the city was held, the forced siege of the city might not work, and the only way was to lure him out of the city to fight.
However, if the husband loses the battle outside the city and retreats to the city to hold on, it will fall into the stalemate that he was worried about, so this battle will have to find a way to force the husband to give up the dry tunnel.
For this reason, Sun Wubing sent the dry tunnel, rushed to the outside of the dry tunnel city and scolded the city, so that the old and weak soldiers in the army scolded the formation, these veterans of Wu are some veteran oil, yellow slang dare to say anything, now Qingji is the king, their waist pole is stiffened, and the general is no longer in his eyes, Sun Wu gave an order, these veterans rushed to the front of the city, foul language and scolding, and the dog blood of the husband's scolding.
The husband knew his intentions, and closed the city gate that was not to fight, and Sun Wu was not in a hurry, so that three teams of veterans went to the city to scold him, and these veterans scolded wildly, whipped into it, and put many bastards in the countryside on the husband, and scolded him ugly.
It is a good reputation for everyone, not to mention that the husband is above the top and has a lofty status, how can he stand such insults from these lowly people, not to mention that the officers and soldiers of the whole army listen to the foul words of those people one by one, how can they turn a blind eye made people shoot arrows, those soldiers and ruffians hid behind the big shield, and the yin and yang monsters scolded even more ugly, so that even the three sergeants and soldiers were angry and exploded their lungs, how could the husband bear him knowing that this was Sun Wu's plan, and he had to go out of the city to meet the enemy.
The husband sent troops out of the city, and the veterans who scolded the formation immediately fled, and Sun Wu saw that the other party came out of the camp to challenge, so he slowly withdrew from the land of three arrows according to the rules and lined up to meet each other.
When Sun Wuxu retreated from the formation, Fu's army also went out of the city one by one and lined up in front of the city.
Look at this, the two sides are going to use the most commonly used frontal battle formation in the Spring and Autumn Period to fight the winner, but when the two sides are arrayed, they have their own evil intentions.
Because the area outside the city of the main tunnel is not wide, there is a canal flowing from the direction of Gusu on the left, and a low slope full of mulberry trees on the right, and the camps of the two sides are placed on a piece of open land in front of the city that is only about four miles wide, and can only be lined up into two armies on the left and right, forming a pincer formation.
The husband set up the handsome banner and the tooth flag in the left army, making the illusion that the Chinese army was here, but he personally led the elite to hide in the right army.
Trying to take advantage of the enemy's main attack on his left flank "main formation" to launch an all-out attack from the right flank, quickly crushing the enemy's flank troops, leaving his main force isolated and panicked, and then annihilating them in a battle.
But Sun Wu did not misjudge that his husband was in the left camp just because the other party's handsome flag and tooth flag were located.
The Wu royal family comes from the Zongzhou Ji clan, and also pays attention to the right as the precious, this habit has infiltrated into all aspects of the nobles' daily life and political life.
Therefore, as a royal family, the husband should subconsciously set his main formation on the right flank when he is arrayed.
With this in mind, Sun Wu carefully observed the formation and momentum of the armies on the left and right flanks, and judged that the main force of the other side was actually hidden in the right flank army formation.
Sun Wu judged the true location of the opponent's main force, but he did not put his elite strength in the place where it was opposed, on the contrary, he immediately calculated the plan, adjusted the military formation, and made the appearance of attacking the "main force of the Chinese army" on the opponent's left flank, and transferred his own elite to the opposite side of the opponent's left flank.
In the big war, the right flank of the husband came forward to harass the enemy, which was usually the task of the weak brigade, responsible for creating opportunities for the main force of the Chinese army.
Sun Wu made the appearance of "sure enough", and as soon as he repelled the opponent's tentative attack, he immediately concentrated the elite main force and pounced on the Chinese army commander on the opponent's left flank.
Seeing Sun Wu's "plan", the husband couldn't help but be overjoyed, and immediately led the elite to move out, swept Sun Wu's flank troops, tried to fight quickly, and then attacked Sun Wu's back.
I don't want Sun Wu to fight with the same mind, his elite main force attack is no less fierce than Fu Xuan, Fu General rushed to his flank camp in chaos, Sun Wu also ignored it, and only commanded his own troops to attack the opponent's "Chinese army".
Sun Wu was completely in accordance with the strategic concept of Fu Jian to fight, but whether it was active or passive, the subsequent development was completely different, Sun Wu came prepared, his flank was rushed to the fall of the flowers, he did not panic, nor did he return to help, but accelerated the speed of the attack, as soon as he broke through the enemy's position, immediately through the camp, forced the defenders in the dry tunnel city to raise the drawbridge, and then fought against the city, blocking the retreat of Fu Xuan.
Fu probability's army stormed Sun Wu's flank camp, Sun Wu's flank was commanded by Yingtao, he led this weak brigade to support for a while, and when he saw that Sun Wu broke through the Chinese army on the left flank of Fu Xuan, he immediately turned around and ran, and the Fu probability's army chased and killed for a while, seeing that this force did not resist, but as if their main force had been wiped out, they fled faster than anyone else, and they couldn't catch up, so they felt that the situation was a little weird.
Seeing that he had defeated Sun Wu's flank, Sun Wu not only did not rush back to help as he expected, but as if he didn't see it, he still attacked his left flank camp with all his might, so he hurriedly collected his troops, reorganized his ranks, and rushed back to kill.
When the horses came back, Sun Wu had already rushed through his left camp and put on a posture of fighting against the city under the Dry Tunnel City, and then Yingtao also rectified the men and horses, and turned back to kill.
The big battle between the two sides has evolved into a real contest of strength, abandoning all conspiracies and tricks, and fighting a real head-on decisive battle.
This battle was extremely tragic, it lasted for half a day, the casualties on both sides were very serious, and the defenders in the dry tunnel city were limited, so they could only stand at the head of the city and release cold arrows to implement interference tactics against Sun Wu, but there was no real impact on the whole battle.
By the time the sun set, both sides were exhausted and had to withdraw their troops and camp in place.
At this time, Sun Wu's main force was relying on the trunk tunnel city with his back, and the front was blocking the army of Fu Xuan, and the army of Fu Xuan was attacked on the back of the enemy, and outside was Yingtao's military camp.
If Fu Yi broke through at night and concentrated the main force to attack Yingtao's side, then he could definitely rush through, but Sun Wu thought that Fu Ji would not easily give up the dry tunnel city, if he wanted to raid at night, the target would not be Yingtao on the periphery, but should be himself, so as soon as the two sides made a truce, he dug a trench and built an embankment to prepare for defense, and at the same time ordered the soldiers surnamed Xi Shui to go down the river, bypassing the Fu Jian military camp to inform Yingtao, and asked him to send someone to transfer Liang Huzi's men and horses who were accompanying him to come overnight, wanting to take advantage of the opportunity to contain Fu Yu's men and horses.
Concentrate superior forces and annihilate him here in one fell swoop.
Unexpectedly, this time he made a mistake in judgment, and that night the husband gathered all the men and horses, ordered the general Mu Qishe to resist the enemy, and led the front army to attack the Yingtao camp, tore a hole, and went straight to Nanwu City.
Sun Wu didn't expect that his husband would have the courage to give up the dry tunnel city and leave the battlefield overnight, Yingtao's camp had been disrupted, and it was too late to gather at night to catch up again, Sun Wu had to turn back and take the dry tunnel city first, and wait until Tianming gathered the army to chase after him, and at the same time notified the Liang Huzi department, who was still on the way overnight, to also march in the direction of Nanwu City.

When the messenger said this, the tent was boiling, and everyone was overjoyed, and they all congratulated Qingji.
The messenger waited for everyone's mood to stabilize a little before he said: "When General Liang Huzi was marching in a hurry, he caught a few spies, and once they were interrogated, they were sent by Gou Jian, the prince of Yue, and these spies were not the only ones.
General Liang Huzi has ordered someone to report the matter to General Sun Wu, and at the same time asked the villain to tell the king to be careful of the safety of this formation. ” Qingji listened to it and groaned slightly, nodded slightly: "With my understanding of my husband, he will not admit defeat so quickly, decisively abandon Gan Tunnel City, and the whole army will flee to Nanwu City."
It seems that it was the Yue scouts who grasped the news of Liang Huzi's army and told it to the husband, so that the husband would change his mind in time.
In this way, Fu Jian and Gou Jian must have joined forces, and Gou Jian's men and horses may also be hovering around them, Sun Wu already knows the news, otherwise he will inevitably suffer a big loss if he chases all the way. ” Candle Yong said nonchalantly: "Yue Guo is a defeated general under my Wu State, and it has been suppressed by our Wu State for hundreds of years and cannot turn over, and now Yue Guo has sent an army of less than 10,000 people, what can it be of great use, why should we be so careful" Cover Yu retorted: "Although the Yue State is weaker than my Wu State, it has been suppressed by us for hundreds of years, but the Yue State has never really surrendered for hundreds of years, and once it loses the battle, it will surrender its subordinates, and send troops to come again when it has the slightest opportunity, just like a poisonous snake that cannot be killed."
My Wu State has not suffered their secret losses, and now although the king has ascended the throne, he cannot control the entire Wu Kingdom.
A victory or defeat is sometimes enough to turn the tide of the entire battle, how can we underestimate this way" Cover Yu is Candle Yong's eldest brother, Cover Yu said this, Candle Yong only snorted, and then stopped talking.
There was silence in the big tent for a while, only to hear a burst of shouting and noise in the distance, it was Jinglin's stone thrower, which was still "bombing" the city head day and night.
Up to now, more than 20 stone throwers have been abandoned due to excessive wear and tear and can no longer be repaired.
New stone-throwing machines have been delivered day and night, and the number of stone-throwing machines outside Gusu City has reached one hundred and fifty.
Usually, these stone throwers throw some mud pellets and smoke barriers, and at the same time, Qingji has sent people to collect boulders from afar, and transfer them here by river to accumulate them in case of emergency.
If the husband's army is wiped out, and the husband refuses to surrender with the idea of burning the jade of Gusu City, and there is no other way to think of it, then the only way is to smash the city wall with huge stones and forcibly attack the city.
It's just that the city wall of Gusu City is really wide and thick, and the city wall will not fall, and it is unpredictable whether this stone thrower can smash the city wall.
Fucha was suppressed by Qingji's stone throwing machine The army could only hide in the hidden soldier cave all day long, so he also cast a spell, cutting down the big trees in the city to make a stone throwing machine, but he made the original kind of stone throwing equipment, to throw large stones need more than 100 people to pull the fiber rope from time to time, fortunately, there are people in the city who can use manpower, even if they don't know how to wield knives and guns at all, they still understand how to pull the rope.
It's just that Qingji's stone-throwing machine shot farther, and the stone-throwing machine that the craftsmen in the city ordered to hurry up to make are completely incomparable in quantity and quality, and once they are transported to the city, most of them are smashed by the stone-throwing machine outside the city.
Therefore, every time I hear it, it is mostly the sound of the outside of the city throwing orders from outside the city to the inside of the city, and the guards in the city hold on to the danger, and the outside of the city is not in a hurry or impatient, and the two sides have been insisting on it.
Everyone was silent for a long time, and Qingji smiled and said: "What you said makes sense, we don't have to look like a big enemy to the lone army of Yue Guo all the way, but we can't dismiss the joint efforts of Fu Ji and Gou Jian."
Intensify the contact with Sun Wu and Liang Huzi's two armies, strengthen the vigilance of the main formation under Gusu City, and at the same time send more scouts, even if Gou Jian really turns into a snake and hides in the grass in the gutter, he must be pulled out by the widow."
"Nuo" Jing Lin clenched his fists to lead the order.
"Alright, let's disperse."
Qingji commanded, everyone retreated one by one, Qingji still sat behind the case, and pondered carefully for a long time.
For Gou Jian, he was afraid of this person's forbearance and unscrupulous femininity to achieve the goal, because he knew that in the original history, it was Gou Jian who destroyed the Wu State, which was much stronger than the Yue State, so he attached great importance to him.
However, on the other hand, from Qingji's understanding of the Yue Kingdom, he also knew that it would never be possible to conquer the Wu Kingdom with the strength of the Yue Kingdom itself.
In the future development of the Spring and Autumn Period, he is most familiar with the story of Gou Jian's lying down and tasting courage, and finally destroying the Wu State.
But even in that period of history that has changed, Gou Jian spent twenty years recuperating and recuperating, but still has no strength to destroy the Wu State, and the death of the Wu State is not in the Yue State, but in the hands of the Wu people themselves.
At that time, Wu Wangfucha was extremely poor and extravagant at home, built luxurious palaces on a large scale, and repeatedly sent troops to the outside world, exhausting the national strength of Wu.
However, now that he is not the real lord of Wu after all, there is also a king of Wu in Gusu City, and he is not yet able to give orders to the subjects of Wu, collect taxes, and levy conscription, and the government decree does not leave the camp, and the person he relies on is still his army, so once he fails, the offensive and defensive situation may change at any time, so he can't ignore Gou Jian's mysterious whereabouts.
Qingji was thinking about it, the curtain was gently lifted, and a guard stood at the mouth of the tent and bowed slightly: "King, let the girl ask to see." ” Qingji was startled, and hurriedly asked, "Big and small" The guard was stunned: "It's Miss Ren." ” Qingji breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said, "Hurry up, please." ” To be continued:
