Before a battle begins, people often hold their breath and think about defeating the enemy with one powerful blow. However, if victory comes too easily, it is easy to scare yourself.
Right now, that's it. The brave Taishi Ci hesitated in front of the deep valley, and the generals who were watching the battle in the middle army also frowned. Cao Cao sent people to intercept them seriously, but they turned out to be such a bunch of useless snacks. What do you think?
How weird.
"Lure the enemy to go deeper? Set up an ambush on the top of the mountain?" Qin Feng looked at the cliffs on both sides of the valley and tentatively offered his opinion. There are also big mountains in Youzhou, but it is rare to encounter such valleys. Even if there are, it is not necessary to walk.
, most of them can be bypassed, so he has no clue about the current situation.
"That's useless. There are not enough stones on the cliff, and the arrows shot from above lose their strength." On this topic, Fang Yue, a native of the country, had the most say. He shook his head and rejected Qin Feng's suggestion.
The valley in front of us is very long, and the cliffs on both sides of the valley are as steep as knives. Unless the entire stone wall can be knocked down, there is no use occupying the tops of the two walls. The top of the mountain is bare, and there are no stones. The mountain wind is fierce, and the feathers are blowing.
The arrow was shot from a cliff thousands of feet high, and before it hit halfway, it was blown away by the mountain wind to an unknown place.
What is usually said about setting up an ambush in a valley and using the terrain to attack the enemy refers to the kind of hills that are less than a hundred feet high and the slope of the slope is not too steep. Places like Baixing 72guai, no matter what
Both offense and defense can only make fuss at the bottom of the valley.
"Anyway, let's test first and then talk." Wang Yu had no intention of commenting on the generals' comments and still maintained the original arrangement: "Tell Ziyi, don't rush too fast, still focus on testing, and attack slowly and steadily. If there is any disadvantage,
, then withdraw the troops immediately.”
It's true that the opponent is Cao Cao's army. Except for Cao Cao's side, no one will look bored and come in front of him to find trouble. Moreover, this army is also under the banner of Cao Cao. But what is a little puzzling is that this enemy soldier is just
The banner of Cao Cao's general was used, but there was no general's banner of the leading general.
Combined with the useless performance of this enemy soldier, Wang Yu could not help but ponder the mystery behind it.
With limited intelligence, maintaining the original order and continuing to test, at least to find out the enemy's true intentions, became the only option.
Because Wang Yu's goal is right ahead and he must use offense to defeat the enemy!
Obviously, the enemy had reasons not to retreat, and a second wave of defenses was quickly organized.
Hundreds of men and horses surged out from the depths of the valley with shouts. During the march, they gathered and dispersed in skillful formations to defeat their own troops, and then formed a dense formation on the spot, with large oars in the front and spears in the back, fearlessly
The situation faced the pursuing Qingzhou Army.
This time, the enemy's performance was slightly better. But it didn't seem like their fighting spirit and combat power had increased. It was more like due to the terrain restrictions of the valley, the actual contact area between the two armies was smaller, so the battle took longer.
long.
After the two sides fought for about a stick of incense, Cao's army broke away from the Qingzhou army one after another and collapsed.
After repeating this process several times, Cao Jun, who was blocking the road, retreated all the way to the depths of the valley and disappeared at the first turning.
The appearance was sudden, and the retreat was quick. It only took less than half an hour. The proportion of fighting time was even less, and most of the time was spent on the road.
If it weren't for the hundreds of twisted corpses with different death patterns left along the way, everyone in Qingzhou would probably not be able to believe that the enemy was so defeated without the ability to fight back.
But things are obviously not that simple. You can see some carefulness from Wang Yu's solemn expression.
Obviously, this resourceful and far-sighted lord was not fooled by the small victory in front of him, but saw the deeper meaning that ordinary people could not see.
"This is not about luring the enemy. To be precise, it is not as simple as luring the enemy!" Wang Yu suddenly said out of nowhere.
"My lord means..."
"Perhaps, this enemy army has used all its strength to fight!" Wang Yu ignored the doubtful looks of the generals and was completely immersed in the analysis of the battle situation.
"Is this a tactic? Well, it does make some sense. If the enemy can keep fighting and retreating like this, we may have to walk for more than five days on this hundred-mile journey." Zhao Yun nodded and shook his head again.
Shaking his head: "However, if this battle continues like this, can they really afford it?"
"Don't you find it strange? These people are not very good at fighting, but they are very courageous and slimy. Those who ran away at the beginning reorganized themselves on the last wave of defense!" Ma Yunluo has a sharp eye.
Yes, his observation skills are detailed enough, and he pointed out a doubtful point.
"Huh? Ziyi and the others seem to have been blocked again..." Qin Feng looked in the direction Ma Yunluan pointed, and exclaimed, making a new discovery: "This time the enemy's resistance seems to be very fierce... Ziyi
They actually retreated! Could it be that the enemy ambushed a heavy army behind them? This is terrible! Wuji, aren't you a local? What is the valley behind the bend like?"
Finding that Taishi Ci had been beaten back, Qin Feng suddenly thought of a possibility. If the valley behind was wider, the enemy could ambush more troops there and attack the pursuing Qingzhou Army.
Fang Yue spread his hands and looked helpless: "How did I know this?"
"You are a local and a disciple of a general. How come you can't even figure out the terrain?" Qin Feng was also anxious.
"I'm talking about crazy people, you need to find out first! Do you know where this place is? Do you think the name of the Seventy-two Guais is for nothing? It is said to be the Seventy-two Guais, but in fact the valley road here twists and turns.
How many twists and turns have we made? Not to mention that I only walked through it a few times occasionally. Even if you are a traveler who travels all year round, how many of you can remember all the terrain?"
Fang Yue's face turned red from being squeezed by him, and she shouted loudly: "Besides, if those thieves on the other side really have such an idea, even if they are careful enough in the valley, what should they do when they leave the valley?"
When Fang Yueyi reminded him, Qin Feng was dumbfounded: "That's true..."
Maybe, the enemy's plan is to use these miscellaneous troops to consume their own physical strength, and then ambush thousands of elites at the mouth of the valley on the other side. To put it bluntly, it is a strategy of waiting for work and tiring the enemy!
If this is really the case, this move can be said to be almost unsolvable.
This enemy force is very resilient and seems to be used to being beaten to pieces. It also seems to be used to walking on mountain roads. It moves very quickly and regroups very quickly.
Although the Qingzhou Army's combat effectiveness is far superior to that of its opponent, in such rugged terrain, it cannot exert its full combat effectiveness. At most, it can only attack in turns. It is not impossible to win quickly.
"Even if there is no ambush at the other end of the valley, as long as we delay for three to five days, reinforcements will probably arrive. By then, we will have already penetrated deep into the valley. We may be in a dilemma!"
Zhuge Liang, who was camping at the back, also realized that something was wrong. He came forward with a few staff, listened quietly for a while, and said worriedly: "Cao Cao's move hit the vital point of our army. And what he paid was only Yu."
It’s just a few thousand thieves who are poisonous or stubborn.”
After what he said, the generals suddenly figured out the identity of this strange enemy force.
Isn't it? They are familiar with the terrain, move quickly, and are tenacious, but their performance in array battles is extremely poor. Only these Black Mountain bandits who are used to fighting guerrillas have these contradictory characteristics at the same time.
"Pass my general's order to withdraw the troops!" Wang Yu, as if giving a footnote to Zhuge Liang's judgment, suddenly shouted: "Let Ziyi withdraw. There is no need to continue this useless battle."
"Dang, Dang, Dang..." The harsh sound of golden gongs resounded throughout the valley, and the battle came to an end.
"The combat power of these bastards is very poor, but they have too many crooked ways..." Tai Shici took off his helmet and walked towards the formation with a curse, looking like he was still full of ideas.
When I heard that the vanguard troops had once again cleared the obstacles, they were about to continue the pursuit. This battle seemed to be overwhelming, with hundreds of enemies killed, but Taishi Ci, who was in the middle of the situation, was very depressed.
In fact, I only killed a large number of enemies twice when I conquered the Taniguchi camp and entered the valley. Afterwards, the enemies became more and more cunning. They refused to fight head-on and just jumped around like a group of monkeys in front of me. Once
When I catch up, I either find a pit in a seemingly flat place, or I stumble over a stone placed in the middle of the road.
The pit is not very deep, just missing the ankle, but it is quite a trap. A soldier wearing full iron armor accidentally steps on it, and may lose his balance and fall, or directly sprain his ankle and lose his combat effectiveness.
During the battle with the enemy, the heavy armored soldiers only had two slightly injured people, but more than ten were trapped by these traps. The sprained ankle was not life-threatening, but in the next few days, there was no way to rely on it.
Stand up with your own strength.
"That's not all. These despicable people also set up other ambushes around the corner! These monkeys were able to climb up such a bare mountain wall with bare hands. There were dozens of them, with fist-sized hands.
The rocks were thrown down... Not to mention the sons and daughters, I was not careful and was all hit. I was really pissed off!"
Even if Tai Shi Ci didn't say anything, Wang Yu could see the dents on his helmet. He thought he was charging too hard and deliberately not hiding in order to kill more enemies, but the result turned out to be such a ridiculous result.
After appeasing Tai Shici for a few words, Wang Yu gave up his plan to continue the attack and left a small number of troops on guard, while the whole group joined the camp.
He himself was not idle either. He found a few local soldiers from the army whose hometowns were nearby, and then sent people to look for mountain people nearby, intending to learn more about the terrain of the Seventy-two Turns.
Wang Yu initially raised troops in Hanoi, and there were many Hanoi people in the army. Among the cavalry alone, he found several people whose families were in Gongxian area. With the confirmation of these people, and the stories of the mountain people, he had a good impression of Bai Xing.
I have a relatively comprehensive understanding of the terrain.
So, when the camp was set up and it was getting dark, when Wang Yu summoned the generals for a military meeting, his first words were like this: "I'm afraid things are a little tricky..." (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature , the novel is better and updated faster!)
