Chapter One Hundred and Eight

Until Huang Zhang's camp was repaired, there was no change in Chagu.

It seems that he has indeed learned his lesson and knows not to act recklessly.

Everything was as Huang Zhang expected.

The barbarian general in front of him seemed to be different from other barbarians in that he was overly cautious.

But being too cautious often exposes huge flaws.

The camps of the two sides were so close to each other that they could even be said to be face to face. The barbarians could attack their camps without any scruples and annihilate them in one fell swoop.

But the barbarian didn't. Huang Zhang didn't believe that the other party would be completely scared just because of a small defeat.

This is just the calm before the storm.

But knowing that the storm was coming, Huang Zhang was not afraid.

He had just guessed the character of the barbarian general on the other side, but he was actually not sure. After all, the barbarians were different from them, and their personalities were somewhat different. Therefore, in addition to arranging Niu Zhantian to disguise himself, he also arranged for Niu Zhantian to be in a position not far from Tianjiabao.

A real ambush was arranged.

If the barbarian soldiers really pursue in depth, he can rely on this group of ambush soldiers to temporarily defeat them.

However, the result made Huang Zhang very satisfied. Niu Zhantian's feint did arouse Chagu's vigilance and asked Chagu to retreat.

This also gave Huang Zhang a clearer and clearer understanding of Chagu's character.

"Your Highness, you asked me to lead the troops to ambush in the mountain valley today, so why didn't you let me lead the troops to replace the Niu Battalion Commander at the beginning, so that I could directly lead the troops to block the retreat of the barbarians, and the results of the battle would be further improved!"

Chu Liang asked puzzledly

Today's battle was indeed exciting. Chu Liang also admitted that he had underestimated the eldest prince in front of him before, but he did not expect that a small arrangement actually allowed them to win the battle.

But if he were to lead the troops in Niu Zhantian's position today, he might be able to defeat these barbarian soldiers back to Wucheng in one fell swoop!

Hearing Chu Liang's words, Huang Zhang smiled.

"If I arrange you in the dense forests on both sides in advance, if the other party sends spies to investigate, I would like to know how thousands of troops are ambushed in the forest, how to retreat? Furthermore, if thousands of troops are ambushed in the narrow official road,

On both sides, do you think those barbarians are blind or pretending not to see?"

As soon as Huang Zhang said these words, Chu Liang was dumbfounded.

Yes, he was thinking from the perspective of a winner, thinking what should be done to expand the results, but he ignored the most basic conditions.

Moreover, as Huang Zhang said, if you want to expand the results of the war, you have to send at least two to three thousand people to ambush to gain anything, but the mountains and forests on both sides of the official road seem to have no room for two to three thousand people!

Niu Zhantian's four to five hundred men alone had already made the barbarians realize that something was wrong. With two to three thousand men, how blind do you have to be to not see it?

"I'm sorry, Your Highness, it's the general who didn't think it through!"

Huang Zhang still admired Chu Liang's habit of correcting his mistakes when he knew they were wrong, but how could he, like Niu Zhantian, speak without thinking?

"Forget it, go and give the order for the entire army to withdraw from the camp tonight!"

Upon hearing this order, Chu Liang instinctively wanted to ask why, but after seeing Huang Zhang's expression, he immediately stopped thinking.

In the end, he simply said: "As you command!"

Then we started to make arrangements.

He has gradually become accustomed to Huang Zhang's way of doing things. Don't ask too many questions before doing something, just do it. The final result will tell him the answer anyway.

In fact, Chu Liangliang had more questions than this. He wanted to know where Niu Zhantian, who had been hiding on both sides of the official road during the day, was now, and Liu Han Kouxin, who was with them before. After he came out of Longhu Village, there was no

I have met Liu Han and Kou Xin.

On the other hand, Niu Zhantian's subordinate Zhu Tun has been delivering news to Huang Zhang and looks very busy.

Following Huang Zhang's order, Chu Liang led all the soldiers of the Northwest Army out of the camp that night and waited for orders about three miles outside the camp.

At almost three o'clock, Zhu Tun ran out of the camp. When he saw Chu Liang, he didn't have time to rest and said directly:

"Quick, my lord has an order to lead the soldiers of the Northwest Army back quickly!"

When Chu Liang heard this, he knew what was going on. He glanced at his men, and then asked Zhu Tun: "What happened over there, Your Highness?"

I saw Zhu Tun panting and saying: "Barbarians...barbarians are attacking the camp! Sir...lord is retreating this way!"

"What?" Chu Liang was shocked when he heard this.

Huang Zhang had asked him to lead the Northwest Army out of the camp before. He thought Huang Zhang had brought Liu Han's Cold Wind Camp in, but he didn't expect that Huang Zhang had guessed that the barbarians would attack at night.

"Not good!" Chu Liang reacted immediately.

Huang Zhang doesn't have troops around him. What if he is caught by the barbarians?

Chu Liang didn't dare to think about it anymore, and immediately rushed to Huang Zhang with the fully prepared Northwest Army.

As soon as the troops set off, they saw the camp they had built suddenly burst into flames, which looked particularly dazzling in the dark night.

"Quick! Come with me to rescue him!" Chu Liang shouted.

When he saw the fire in the camp, he was even more worried. If Huang Zhang had some shortcomings and he couldn't join the Northwest Army, he might not be able to save his head.

Just when Chu Liang rushed to the camp with his troops, the scene in front of him shocked Chu Liang.

Huang Zhang was seen sitting in front of the burning camp with a calm expression. Not far from him were a pile of corpses of barbarian soldiers, and Niu Zhantian was leading soldiers from Shanzi Camp back and forth to set fire to the camp.

It goes without saying that Huang Zhang started the fire.

Next to Huang Zhang, Sunu and Zhuang Chengfeng were still standing. The two of them, a man and a woman, were like door gods, protecting Huang Zhang's safety.

Zhuang Chengfeng on the side pulled off a rag from somewhere and was wiping the sword in his hand.

And inside the camp, it was the barbarian vanguard army that was burned by the fire and screamed again and again.

"Your Highness, are you okay?" Chu Liang walked to Huang Zhang and asked.

Huang Zhang glanced at him and said, "Is this the time for you to care about me?"

When Chu Liang heard this, he immediately understood. He drew his sword and pointed towards the burning camp.

"Brothers, follow me and kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

With Chu Liang taking the lead, the morale of the soldiers of the Northwest Army was greatly boosted, and they went to the camp to kill one after another.

Huang Zhang was furious when he looked at Niu Zhantian who was still setting the fire.

"Is this guy blind? Didn't he see his own people coming? Is he still setting fires?"

When Sunu heard this, she understood and immediately ran over to bring Niu Zhantian over.

As soon as he saw Huang Zhang, Niu Zhantian couldn't help but get excited. It was obvious that he was very happy tonight.

"Boss, you called me?"

"What are the casualties in Shanzi Camp?" Huang Zhang asked.

Upon hearing this, Niu Zhantian's originally happy face turned silent.

"A hundred brothers died. They all had no time to run and were overtaken by the barbarians."

There are only a few people in Shanzi camp, so Niu Zhantian would be heartbroken if he died, let alone the loss tonight is so huge.

But compared to what he gained tonight, he felt it was worth it!

Niu Zhantian followed Huang Zhang's request and sent Shanziying soldiers to ambush inside and outside the camp. As soon as the barbarians entered the camp, they would start setting fires.

Most of those who died were those who set fire to the camp and failed to escape from the barbarians.

"I'll give you a great credit this time!" Huang Zhang said.

The reason why Chu Liang and his northwest army were called away was because they were afraid that the barbarian vanguard army would find that there was no one in the camp, causing his fire attack to fail.

Now the camps of the two sides were so close that if he burned his own camp, the barbarians would not be able to escape.
