Chapter Two: Strategizing

Liu Fu said: "General Mao Gui from the left."

"The end will be here."

"You and your own troops of ten thousand will set up an ambush north of Heique Mountain, twenty miles north of Bozhou. When the Yuan soldiers arrive, don't act rashly. When you see the smoke rising from Heique Mountain, rush towards the canyon of Heique Mountain and make no mistake."

"The general will obey orders in the end."

Liu Futong added: "General Li Wu on the right, and general Cui De on the reserve."

"The general is here." Li Wutred stepped out to take orders.

"You will bring your own 20,000 soldiers and horses to set up ambushes on the left and right sides of the Heique Mountain Canyon, and prepare more bows, crossbows, and rolling wood and rocks. The Yuan soldiers must not act rashly when they enter the canyon. When the Chinese army turns back, they will let out smoke and attack them together."

"The general will obey orders"

Liu Futong said again: "Frontguard General Bai Buxin."

"The end will be here." Bai Buxin went out to take orders.

"You will bring 10,000 troops of your own to set up an ambush at Yezhu Ridge, twenty miles north of Black Que Mountain. Once the Yuan soldiers are defeated, you will intercept and kill them."

"The general will obey orders"

Liu Futong paused and said: "All the generals of the Chinese army obey the order." All the generals agreed.

Liu Futong continued: "We will lead our own army of 20,000 troops to meet the enemy thirty miles north of Heique Mountain. This battle may be defeated but not won. Until the Yuan soldiers are led into the Black Que Mountain Canyon, we will meet south of the canyon.

The Queen of Qi led her army back to fight. The vanguard of the Yuan soldiers must be wiped out in Black Que Mountain."

All the generals promised in unison, "The last general will obey the order."

Liu Futong finally said: "Generals, please act as ordered." After all the generals agreed, they dispersed the tent.

Da Kui limped out, holding his buttocks, and Liu Futong shouted: "General Zhang, stay here."

Dakui turned around in confusion, and Liu Fu said: "General Zhang will not go to this battle. He will lead the new army to stay in Bozhou together with several other generals. You can also recover from your wounds."

Dakui said in a muffled voice: "I could have gone, but I didn't ask you to fight me."

Liu Futong smiled and patted Dakui on the shoulder and said, "Go and recuperate." He called two soldiers to help Dakui down.

Dakui was lying in the tent, silently watching the soldiers in the camp marching out, feeling very uncomfortable. Everyone was gone, who would help me walk around. It would be boring to walk outside and see no one around. I thought of the old people in the kitchen.

Jun, they must not have left. Dakui couldn't help but laugh...

Thirty miles north of Black Que Mountain is a vast plain. At this time, 20,000 soldiers of the Red Scarf Army were neatly arranged in four square formations. Two arrows away from the Red Scarf Square formation was a dense mass of Yuan soldiers. The Yuan soldiers were arrayed

The arrow formation was facing the Red Turban Army from a distance.

The autumn wind blew, making the war flags rustle, and occasionally the war horses neighed.

A black horse ran out of the formation of Yuan soldiers. Immediately, the general came to the formation with a long-handled ax and shouted: "I am a man with long bones, but anyone dares to fight with me." A man from the red scarf army also ran out of the formation.

It was a dark horse, and the general on the horse shouted: "General Zhang Xingbang is here to meet you."

As he spoke, he waved his sword in his hand and rode up to the general, and in the blink of an eye the two of them were fighting in front of the formation.

This special bone has a big body, a big waist, a round hole and a powerful body. It is known as the forward tiger in Helan Baru's tent. A mountain-breaking ax in its hand makes the tiger strong and powerful. This special bone has superb martial arts skills, Zhang Xingbang and Zhang Xingbang

The enemy was unable to resist, and the two fought for more than thirty rounds, and Zhang Xingbang was defeated.

When Gute saw Zhang Xingbang making a feint and making his horse run back, he couldn't help but was greedy for success and chased after him. Gute chased the general to the front of the red scarf camp, but he was stabbed diagonally by the red scarf camp's horse and rushed out.

A tiger general blocked the way. Gu Te was startled and hurriedly reined in his horse. He took a closer look at the red scarf general in front of him, although he was wearing leather armor and a red scarf.

He yelled and asked: "The general's name is here." "I am partial to Yang Yonghuai." As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Yonghuai rode his horse and pointed his spear to take the bone. In the blink of an eye, the two of them were fighting together with their swords.

Yang Yonghuai was born in Fengyang, Shanxi Province. Now in his thirties, he is very skilled in martial arts, especially the family's pear blossom spear, which he has mastered to the point of appearing like a ghost. There are many capable people in his ancestors, the most famous one is the famous Yang of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Yang Yonghuai is the twenty-generation descendant of Yang Liulang and Yang Yanzhao among the generals of the Yang family. Most of the spear techniques of the Yang family are dancing with flowers and thorns. When dancing, the gun cherry swings and confuses the enemy's mind like pear blossoms flying, so it is also called the pear flower gun.

.

Gu Te is not an ordinary person, and this time he can be regarded as meeting an opponent and meeting a good talent. Since the two of them rode their horses close to each other, they didn't have much luck in riding past. They both immediately started to attack from the same place. Yang Yonghuai's gun was like lightning and thunder, Gu Te

The two people's weapons did not collide with each other. Whenever they saw the opponent's weapon coming, they would dodge on horseback or push the weapon away, and then attack with their weapons.

There is a proverb in martial arts: If you don't fight, it's just a fight. In other words, both of them want to use the simplest and most direct method to defeat the enemy. This battle is very dangerous. Yang Yonghuai fired more than 20 shots in the blink of an eye, but all of them were killed by Gu Te.

A flash passed by. Yang Yonghuai couldn't help but be secretly shocked. What should he do in such a fight?

Gute was also secretly anxious, and couldn't help but move his hands faster, swinging the big ax in his hand like the wind.

This time, the two were evenly matched, and the fight was indistinguishable. It took more than a hundred rounds to determine the winner. The drums of both sides were beating in unison, cheering for their own people.

When Liu Futong stood on the chariot in the formation, he saw a sneer on his lips, and waved the flag to order the whole army to press forward. In ancient times, when generals in the battle formation were duel, they would fight alone. If one party was highly skilled in martial arts, he would fight alone.

The other side can be allowed to send out one more general. However, one of the advantages of sending out two generals is to admit that they are defeated by the enemy. Liu Futong's move is already a big departure from the norm, but the commander's order has come out and the trumpet sounds in the Red Turban Army.

The shouts of 20,000 red scarf troops were like a torrent pressing towards the enemy formation. The poor Yuan general Gute was swarmed by the red scarf soldiers and hacked to death with random swords. The vanguard general of the Yuan soldiers, Helan Balu, saw this from a distance and cursed angrily. But at this time

He could only order the whole army to rush forward and fight with the Red Turban Army. The men and horses from both sides rushed together like a torrent of collision, and in an instant the shouts of killing could be heard throughout the countryside.

As we all know, Yuan soldiers are good at cavalry. However, both sides of the battle here are fighting with infantry. Liu Futong knew that the opponent must be hiding an ambush. The Red Scarf Army is a team of poor farmers. Most of the horses in the army are farm horses converted into war horses.

But the Yuanting cavalry were indeed all Mongolian war horses. As early as the beginning of the battle, Liu Futong could see that the Yuan soldiers had not yet come out with elite soldiers, and the number of Yuan soldiers facing them was only about 40,000.

Sure enough, the two sides fought for less than half an hour. Two groups of cavalry appeared on the left and right sides of the battlefield, each with more than 5,000 men. Seeing that the time was ripe, Liu Futong hurriedly ordered Ming Jin to withdraw his troops. The Red Scarf Army fled all the way south and was defeated. The Yuan soldiers were defeated.

General Helan Balu sneered and said: "There are still more than fifty miles to Bozhou, and most of the red scarfs are infantry. Let's see how you can escape from my cavalry." At this point, he shouted: "My life is safe."

The army pursues him, and anyone who captures Liu Futong alive will be rewarded with a hundred taels of gold."
