The moon stars are scarce, and the birds fly south.
Meng Liang led 3,000 men and horses to travel lightly, rushing about 20 miles every hour, and arrived at the general ridge mentioned by the scouts at night.
"General, this road is one of the routes that our army uses to transport grain and grass," the scout pointed to a rugged and bumpy mountain road about two zhang wide, "In the past six months, our army's grain and grass have passed through here except for shooting Marin. ” Meng Liang turned over and dismounted, squatted on the ground with a torch to search, and the ground was indeed full of ruts, and corn and wheat grains could be vaguely seen, and it seemed that this was indeed the road for transporting grain and grass.
After getting up and looking around, Meng Liang saw that on the left side of the mountain road, there was a hill about 100 zhang high, winding and undulating, like a drunken general in the moonlight, perhaps this is the origin of the name "General Ridge".
"Give me an ambush on the mountain" Meng Liang waved his hand and led the men and horses to climb the mountain.
One by one, they bent their bows and arrows, wrapped flammable materials on the arrows, smeared them with pine resin and wax oil, and waited for the Guishan army to escort the grain and grass to pass by, and then they fired arrows in unison to burn the grain and grass of the Guishan army.
After about half an hour, I saw that the torches in the southwest direction were bright, the carriages and horses were craggy, and the rumbling sound swept in. 、 "General hiss, there are quite a few people who listen to this voice," the lieutenant general reminded Meng Liang with a frown.
Meng Liang touched his beard, and a pair of big eyes turned slowly: "What are you afraid of, the enemy army who comes to escort grain and grass will naturally need a large number of carriages and people, the more the better, if we can burn him two or three hundred thousand stone of grain in one go, this credit will be great."
This team came quickly, but it was only a meal away from the foot of General Ridge.
By the moonlight, there were about a thousand horse-drawn carriages, chariots and horses, dusty.
There were not too many soldiers escorted, and it was estimated that it was about two thousand, which made Meng Liang secretly happy in his heart.
According to the calculation of 100 stone transported by each car, it is almost nearly 100,000 stone of grain, and if it can be burned in one fire, this credit is enough to eat for a lifetime.
"Feng Hou Bai General, in this move, the brothers are ready to do it" Meng Liang shouted, and stood up from the grass with two axes in his hand.
With Meng Liang's order, three thousand Han troops came out of their hiding places, pulled their bowstrings like a full moon, and prepared to fire the grain with arrows.
"Fence this mountain for me" The general on the horse was none other than the remnants of the Taiping Army, the Shenggong General Wei Changhui.
Since Hong Xiuquan, Yang Xiuqing, Xiao Chaogui and others died in battle, Wei Changhui has become the leader of the Taiping Army.
With Wei Changhui's order, more than 1,000 carriages were noisy, and six or seven people jumped out of each carriage, all of whom were hoplites armed with shields and broadswords, and armored, plus more than 2,000 soldiers pretending to escort grain and grass, nearly 10,000 people.
A shout surrounded the three thousand Han troops on the General Ridge like a tide.
"Ah, how can this be" Meng Liang was shocked, and his dark cheeks suddenly became like earth. picked up the scout, and roared viciously: "Your turtle son dares to scare Lao Tzu and tempt me to be shortlisted" "The villain really doesn't know" The scout looked innocent and desperate, "I just heard the rumors and reported it to the general according to the truth, how did I know that this was a conspiracy of the Kushan people" "Go and explain it to Hades" Meng Liang roared hysterically, lifted the thief-eyed scout above his head, and threw it down from a hundred-foot high mountain.
After Meng Liang finished venting, he held a double axe in his hand and loudly boosted his morale: "Soldiers, we have fallen for the enemy's trick to lure the enemy, and we will rush down with me."
With Meng Liang's order, arrows were fired on the hillside, and arrows with flames rained down.
But the Kushan army had already prepared, and almost everyone had a shield in their hands, and they easily blocked the rain of arrows.
"Kill" Meng Liang roared and led the charge, leading three thousand soldiers down the hill in an attempt to seize the road and break through.
But it was not only the elite of the Taiping Army that surrounded the hillside, but also the hoplites of the Kushan Army, with strong combat effectiveness.
However, the patrol led by Meng Liang was a slightly weaker soldier in the Han army, not to mention that the Guishan soldiers were numerous, and after a period of hand-to-hand combat, the Han army killed four or five hundred people, but the encirclement was like an iron wall, and it did not move at all.
"Back to the hillside, another way to make a living" Meng Liang was helpless, struggled to cut down the two Guishan soldiers, and personally escorted the team back to the General Ridge.
If he continued to fight hard, he was afraid that the whole army would be wiped out in this General Ridge, and Meng Liang could only hope that Mu Guiying would get the news and come to help quickly.
Sixty miles away from the general ridge of the Kushan camp, this place is called Shagang, the terrain is flat, the water source is convenient, 150,000 coalition troops are camped by the mountains and rivers, stretching for more than ten miles, the momentum is magnificent.
Wei Changhui's adjutant general, Wei Li, hurried to the camp and reported to the main general: "Governor Qiyu, your plan has been implemented smoothly, and the 3,000 Han troops led by the Han general Meng Liang have been besieged on the General Ridge."
Seven feet five inches tall, with a Chinese face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, the general who is about 30 years old is the deputy governor of the Guishan Army, and Wang Ben, a famous general of the Qin State who came to Jiaozhou half a year ago.
After Wang Ben arrived in Jiaozhou, he distributed 150,000 soldiers and horses to Meng Tian and Pei Yuanqing, and he led 100,000 horses to attack Yulin, but was strongly blocked by Huo Quji, and they won and lost each other.
After that, Meng Tian was ready to implement the plan of smuggling across the Danzhou Strait and attacking the Han army from east to west, and Wang Ben no longer attacked the city with all his might, but launched a small-scale campaign every once in a while, harassing the Han army, creating illusions, and confusing the Han army.
A few days ago, Wang Benming the lieutenant general in Yulin used his own banner to confuse the Han army, but he brought hundreds of retinues to Hepu quietly.
After observing the terrain for a few days, Wang Ben planned this plan to lure the enemy deep and encircle the point to send reinforcements, and finally set the encirclement at Jiangjunling, and successfully lured Meng Liang to shortlist.
After listening to Wei Li's report, Pei Yuanqing couldn't help but give Wang Ben a thumbs up: "Tut, you are still a powerful governor, you have only been here for a few days, and you have lured the Han army into a trap."
I fought in Hepu for a year, and I didn't take much advantage, it seems that the soldiers are not brave, and what I said is true."
"Haha, General Pei is modest," Wang Ben stroked his beard and laughed, "a fence with three piles, a hero with three gangs."
Although the governor has a little bit of the way of soldiers, but the battlefield battle still depends on a strong general like you, since you have successfully lured the Han army into the encirclement, then we will wait for the rabbit next."
Guishan military general Jabbar arched his hand and asked: "But I have to send someone to inform Mu Guiying and Xu Huang of the news that the Han army is trapped in General Ridge."
Wang Ben smiled and said: "No need, the three thousand men and horses suddenly have no news, I think Mu Guiying and Xu Huang must be more anxious than us, we will wait for the direct management to set up an ambush, and wait for the Han army to come and throw themselves into the net." ” Pei Yuanqing stretched out his left hand, stroking the scar on the severed ring finger of his right hand, and his face was murderous: "It's been more than a year, it's time for me to settle the revenge of the severed finger with the Han army, this time I will make the Han people repay it a thousand times over, kill him with a river of blood, and the corpse will pile up like a mountain."
Wang Ben gave an order: "Pei Yuanqing listened to the order and ordered you to lead 30,000 horses to rush towards the General Ridge, choose dangerous terrain to set up an ambush, and wait for the Han army to come to the rescue, kill him and throw away his armor."
"The last general commands" Pei Yuanqing agreed, took the order, and ordered the arrows to go.
"Jabbar, order you to lead 30,000 people, transport the 200 iron carriages sent by Lord Li Si, follow Pei Yuanqing to the General Ridge to set up an ambush, work together, encircle the point and send reinforcements, as long as the Han army comes to help, let him have no return" Wang Ben issued another arrow.
After Abdul-Jabbar left, Wang Ben instructed Li Xiucheng again: "There are many Han generals who can fight well, that Xu Huang and Su Lie have been fighting in the south for many years, and this Mu Guiying is also a woman who does not let Xu Mei, the Han generals are very likely to see through my encirclement and reinforcement plan, so as to sneak attack our army camp, and implement the plan to encircle Wei and rescue Zhao, you can lead 30,000 people to set up an ambush around the wall, and prepare more strong bows and crossbows. ” "The governor used the soldiers in a good way, and Xiucheng admired the five-body throwing to the ground" Li Xiucheng admired and fell to the ground.
After Li Xiucheng left, Wang Ben selected 30,000 elite soldiers from the remaining men and horses to sit in the camp, galloping to help all roads at any time, arranging to wait for the rest of the day, just waiting for the Han army to throw themselves into the net.

Sure enough, as Wang Ben expected, just when the Guishan Army was in full swing of planning, Mu Guiying also received the news that Meng Liang's lone army had gone deep and was besieged in Jiangjunling, and hurriedly sent people to invite Xu Huang, Su Lie and others to discuss countermeasures.
"Alas, it's all the handsome's use of people who don't notice" Mu Guiying shook his head and sighed, with a look of self-blame, "Meng Liang has already shown signs of underestimating the enemy's greed, but I even sent him to lead troops on patrol, I killed 3,000 soldiers."
Xu Huang arched his hand and said: "Concubine Xian's words are serious, knowing people and knowing the heart of the face, who can count the exhaustive plan to get to this point, I should find a way to save Meng Liang and the soldiers under his command."
Fan Lihua said: "The Guishan army trapped Meng Liang with more than 10,000 people, but surrounded it but did not fight, which is obviously to lure our army to rescue and ambush our army. ” "But General Meng Liang and 3,000 men and horses are trapped on the General Ridge, there is no water and no food, and they can't help it" Joan of Arc has studied Chinese for a year, although the pronunciation is not standard, but he has been able to participate in the military discussion, "Please ask the marshal to allocate 5,000 cavalry to me, and I will go to open a road to rescue General Meng Liang down the mountain" Su Lie stroked his beard and said: "That Pei Yuanqing is good at fighting and short at strategy, and this plan to encircle the point and send reinforcements is nine times out of ten from Li Xiucheng's hands."
Our army can use a two-pronged approach, sending two teams of men and horses to rescue Meng Liang, and sending two other teams of soldiers and horses to attack the camp of the Guishan army, and adopt the plan of encircling Wei to save Zhao to relieve the siege of General Ridge. ” "Well, it's good, General Dingfang's plan is good" Mu Guiying, Xu Huang, Fan Lihua and the others all agreed with Su Lie's opinion. t1706231537:
