The Han army trapped on the Zhushen Ridge rested for two days and two nights, and all of them recovered their spirits, and they were ready to meet the fierce battle.
The Tang army besieged but did not attack, which made Yang Yanzhao suspicious, and climbed to the highest place of Zhushen Ridge early in the morning to look, and found that the Tang army was secretly moving north, and the purpose was unknown.
"Huaiyu, the Tang army hasn't come to attack the mountain for two consecutive days, what kind of calculation do you say Han Xin is playing" Yang Liulang stroked his sword and raised his voice to ask Qin Huaiyu beside him.
In Yang Liulang's opinion, although King Lujiang is gifted and has peerless martial arts at a young age, he is only a child of twelve or thirteen years old after all, and he doesn't know how to use soldiers, so he didn't ask Liu Wuji's opinion.
Qin Huaiyu tried to guess: "Could it be that General Li Jing's army came to the rescue, and Han Xin had no choice but to divide his troops to meet the battle."
Yang Liulang shook his head and said: "This is definitely not the case, if Li Zhengdong really leads a large army to help, the Tang army will inevitably gather heavy troops and face the battle head-on."
However, through my careful observation, I found that the Tang army was sent out in separate ways, so it can be judged that the Tang army was by no means passively facing the battle, but taking the initiative to attack. ” "Oh, I understand, could it be that Han Xin's purpose is to use us as bait to lure Lian Po, Wei Chi Jingde and others to come to the rescue, he is so easy to wait for work, and each of them is broken" Qin Huaiyu pinched his chin with his hand, and suddenly had an epiphany.
Yang Liulang nodded solemnly: "That's right, this is Han Xin's plan to encircle and help."
It seems that Han Xin has seen through our plan to use himself as a bait to attempt a counter-encirclement of the Tang army, so he is not in a hurry to attack the mountain, but chooses the Qingzhou army, which has the weakest combat effectiveness. ” Qin Huaiyu clenched his fists and said: "General Yang means that the Tang Army is going to attack the old general Lian Po" Yang Liulang drew his sword out of the sheath: "The Qingzhou soldiers under General Lian Po are the weakest in combat effectiveness, and they are in a hurry all the way, and they are sleepy and lacking horses.
That's why the Tang army split up to surround the Qingzhou soldiers, trying to break them individually, we can't watch from the wall on the mountain, we must go down the mountain to rescue the old general Lian."
Qin Huaiyu took off a pair of gold maces from his back with his backhand, and said loudly: "Since this is the case, let's go down the mountain, the little nephew is willing to take Uncle Yang as the leader."
Yang Liulang pointed at the Tang army under the mountain and reminded Qin Huaiyu: "Virtuous nephew, look, the Tang army under the mountain the day before yesterday was at least thirty or forty thousand, and now it is scarce, I am afraid that there are not even twenty thousand."
Let's go down the mountain in one go, and we will definitely be able to break through easily, and then go north to rescue General Lian. ” Liu Wuji, who had been listening attentively to the side, suddenly interjected: "General Yang, there is actually a better idea, I don't know if I am willing to give it a try" Yang Liulang hurriedly laughed and said: "Hehe, I don't know what the little prince has to plan, and Weichen is willing to listen to it."
Liu Wuji pointed at the Tang army camp not far away: "You see that there are some weirdness in the Tang army camp, although there are countless flags, but the figures are very sparse.
Many horses galloped back and forth, deliberately trampling on the smoke and dust, I think this is clearly the Tang army's suspicious plan, we can go straight to the Tang army camp, to surround Wei to save Zhao. ” Yang Liulang carefully observed the Tang army camp for a while, and couldn't help but be convinced, and bowed his hand: "The little prince is really as meticulous as a hair, but Weichen is negligent."
I have been staring at the Tang army that went out to observe, but I have never found this flaw in the Tang army, and the Tang army camp really looks very empty.
These extra flags for no reason, and those horses galloping back and forth, are suspicious tactics, which proves the emptiness of the Tang camp. ” After listening to the conversation between Yang Liulang and Liu Wuji, Qin Huaiyu couldn't help but scold: "This Han Xin is really arrogant enough, he didn't take us seriously, and even set up an empty plan for us, if he doesn't kill him, I'm afraid he will be flattened."
Yang Liulang stroked his beard and smiled: "Huai Yuxian's nephew should not be angry, it's not that Han Xin looks down on me and others, but that his clever wife is difficult to cook without rice."
"How can you say this," Qin Huaiyu looked puzzled.
Yang Liulang put away his sword and returned it to the sheath, and said in a deep voice: "Han Xin's original intention was to use us to send reinforcements, but the Tang army was insufficient, and the Tang army in the entire Jiaodong Peninsula was only 150,000 or 60,000, and our army plus the Qingzhou soldiers under General Lian Lao also had about 1230,000.
Although our army was divided, the Tang army must also follow the division of troops, and Han Xinqiao's wife could not cook without rice, so she could only make this decision. ” Liu Wuji turned over and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if he has rice or not, let's kill the mountain by surprise and storm the Tang army camp, and there will be a catch."
Ling Tong waved the tiger with the three-section stick in his hand, and said excitedly: "Shoot people first and shoot horses, capture thieves and capture kings first, it would be fun if Han Xin sat in the Tang army camp."
Yang Liulang also got on his horse and instructed Qin Huaiyu: "Virtuous nephew, you are guarding the coffin of Qin Dudu on the mountain, and I and the little prince will lead a group of soldiers and horses down the mountain to storm the Tang army camp and surround Wei to save Zhao."
If the Tang army learned that the camp was attacked, it would definitely turn around and come back to the rescue, so that the siege could be relieved of General Lian. ” Qin Huaiyu hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Yang Liulang's reins, and begged earnestly: "Sixth Uncle Yang, after my uncle died in battle, you will be the chief general of the three armies, you should stay on the mountain and sit in the town to respond, and let the little nephew go to charge into battle."
Liu Wuji reminded beside him: "The two generals don't have to fight, according to Xiao Wang's opinion, no one needs to stay on the mountain."
When the main force of the Tang army returns to the rescue, we will turn around and head north, and strive to meet General Lian as soon as possible, so that we don't have to worry about being broken by each other. ” Yang Liulang pondered carefully, and secretly screamed ashamed in his heart, the little prince was right, since he could break through the encirclement of the Tang army, why did he stay on the mountain Wei Qing's soldiers and horses would arrive on the battlefield almost tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, the momentum of the attack was about to form, there was no need to continue to stay on the mountain as a bait, and it was the best policy to choose to meet with the Qingzhou soldiers of Lian Po as soon as possible.
"Although the little prince is young, he is thoughtful and wise, and his eyes are like torches, Weichen sighs to himself, it is better for you to be the main general" Yang Liulang turned over and dismounted, took out the tiger talisman from his arms, and handed it to Liu Wuji with his hands in a happy and sincere manner.
Liu Yu hurriedly excused himself and said with a smile: "My father often said that the authorities are obsessed with bystanders, Xiao Wang can see through Han Xin's empty camp plan, probably this is the truth, I am still young, not enough to take on the big responsibility, and ask General Yang to continue to command the three armies, so let Xiao Wang make you a member of the army." ” Seeing that Liu Wuji insisted on not accepting it, Yang Liulang had no choice but to give up, and said again: "The little prince is smart and wise, please remind Weichen more along the way, our monarchs and ministers work together, and we will be able to turn things around and turn defeat into victory."
At the moment, Liu Wuji, Ling Tong, and Qin Huaiyu selected 10,000 elites in front, and Yang Yanzhao escorted Qin Qiong's coffin to sit in the center.
"Ignorant Tang Kou, Fanbang barbarian, An dares to offend my Han Jiangshan, let you wait today to taste the power of the Han Lujiang King" Liu Wuji urged the crotch to cover the clouds of smoke, the dragon slaying knife in his left hand, and the heavenly sword in his right hand, rampage in the Tang army's formation, invincible everywhere he went, and no one could stop him.
This dragon slayer knife and the sword of Yitian are both sharp weapons that sharpen iron like clay, every time they slash and kill, they either cut off the enemy's weapons or pierce the enemy's armor.
In just one meal, Liu Wuji beheaded more than 100 Tang troops, including one partial general and two captains.
Ling Tong and Qin Huaiyu were not to be left behind, one wielded a three-section stick, the other held a four-edged golden hammer, followed Liu Yu's horse's hooves to rush left and right, and in the Tang army array, it was like entering a no-man's land, and the Tang army that killed directly was ambushed with corpses, and blood flowed into the wilderness.
In order to encircle and suppress Lian Po's Qingzhou soldiers, Han Xin siphoned off half of the Tang army at the foot of Zhushen Ridge, leaving only 18,000 people to bluff, trying to bluff the Han army on the mountain, and then make a comeback after exterminating Lian Po's Qingzhou soldiers.
In Han Xin's plan, the four-way encirclement of Lian Po can eat 40,000 Qingzhou soldiers in one day and one night, maybe Yang Yanzhao, who was trapped in the mountain at that time, has not reacted, and the siege will be re-formed.
But people are not as good as heaven, the careful Yang Liulang did not wait for death on the mountain, but has been observing the actions of the Tang army, successfully saw through Han Xin's strategy, and immediately killed the mountain.
The 18,000 Tang army was already weak, scattered at the foot of the huge mountain, and it was even more scarce, under the leadership of Liu Yu, Ling Tong, and Qin Huaiyu, the three fierce generals, they easily broke through the encirclement of the Tang army, and slaughtered the Tang army's base camp ten miles away.
Just as the Han army was charging down the hillside, the Tang army scouts hurriedly reported to Li Shimin, who was sitting in the camp: "Your Majesty, the Han army on the mountain has suddenly rushed down, please make a decision quickly." ” Li Shimin's eyebrows furrowed when he heard this, pinched his chin and groaned: "This Yang Yanzhao is a little bold, it seems that Han Xin underestimated him, I didn't expect the reaction to be so fast, it's really unexpected."
Before Li Mi's 30,000 Tang troops arrived, there were only 110,000 Tang troops in the entire Gaomi territory, and in order to quickly eliminate Lian Po's Qingzhou soldiers and minimize casualties, Han Xin dispatched 80,000 Tang troops.
After all, in addition to Lian Po's 40,000 Qingzhou soldiers, Wei Chigong's 30,000 soldiers and horses are rushing to help, and if there is no absolute superiority in troops, it is difficult to fight quickly.
In desperation, Han Xin had no choice but to make dangerous moves, except for leaving 18,000 people to blare under the Zhushen Ridge and stabilize the Han army on the mountain, leaving Li Shimin with only 12,000 people to defend the base camp.
Until this time, Li Shimin did not understand the intention of the Han army, and hurriedly summoned the golden bullet to the front: "General Wanyan, immediately gather men and horses to kill the camp, and unite the soldiers at the foot of the mountain to block this Han army, they must not escape."
The scout panted and reported: "Your Majesty, the Han army did not choose to break through and escape, but rushed towards our camp, menacing and unstoppable." t1706231537:
