Chapter 837 Reinforcement of Liaodong

Ailang gradually suppressed Yan Xing, and his cavalry gradually suppressed Cao's cavalry, just like two waves of collision, one of which seemed to be about to overwhelm the other. However, Cao's army was not comparable to the Goguryeo people and the Japanese. Although the battle situation was unfavorable, they still fought to fight against the Qin army, roaring and howling without giving in! Although the forces between the two sides did not have many troops to fight, the degree of tragic terror is amazing!

At this moment, a golden bell rang out from Cao's army. Yan Xing and his cavalry, who were fighting desperately, calmed down a little. Yan Xing immediately deceived Ailang with a fake shot, then turned his horse and left the battle, shouting loudly: "Retreat! Retreat!" The officers and soldiers of Cao also broke away from the battle and ran backwards.

Seeing that the other party took the initiative to retreat and had no intention of pursuing, Ailang led the cavalry toward the city gate. The attacking Cao army retreated like a tide of ebbing. Ailang led 7,000 cavalry into the city. Ju Yi, Yan Liang, and Huang Wudie all came to greet him and said, "Lord (Brother)!" Ailang jumped off the Red Rabbit Horse, helped the two of them up, and patted them on the shoulders hard, everything was indifferent. Shouldn't Yan Liang be guarding Lelang County, how could he appear here? It turned out that when Ailang was about to deal with the Gogurye people first, he adopted Huang.

Yueying's suggestion was to transfer Yan Liang, who was guarding Lelang County and most of the officers and soldiers to reinforce Liaodong County, which had a bad battle situation, so Yan Liang appeared in this place. In fact, not only Yan Liang was transferred to reinforce Liaodong County at that time, but also the troops guarding Xuantu County. It was precisely because these two reinforcements arrived in time that they could save Liaodong County in the crisis not long ago. Otherwise, Ailang would have seen only a broken wall that had fallen! The deceit and bravery of Cao's army were not comparable to those of the Gogurye and the Japanese!

In the Cao army's tent, Zhang He, Han Sui and Xun You sat together to discuss the current war. Xun You frowned and said, "Will Lu Bu arrive suddenly? Could it be that the Gogurye Li people were defeated by them?" Zhang He and Han Sui also frowned. Zhang He said, "This is very likely. Otherwise, Lu Bu would not be able to free up his hands to reinforce Liaodong County."

At this time, a scout rushed in, bowed to Zhang He, and said, "Report to General, the villain just received the news that the Goguli people were defeated by the Qin army in the battle under Gutu City, and the defeated generals have fled back to the domestic city!"

Although everyone had already predicted it, they were still shocked when they heard such a report. Zhang He asked anxiously: "What is the battle under Gutu City? How much does the Goguru Li people suffer? How much does the Qin army suffer?"

The scout said: "The specific situation is not very clear. I only heard that the nearly 200,000 army led by King Goguli was almost wiped out. Gao Tai only fled back to the domestic city with only a few thousand people. As for the losses of the Qin army, I heard that there was not much."

Everyone looked at each other, and their expressions seemed a little unbelievable. Han Sui frowned with some anger and said, "The Goguryeo people were arrogant and arrogant before, but they didn't expect that they were so useless! Nearly 200,000 troops were swept away by tens of thousands of Qin troops in such a short time as sweeping away fallen leaves!..."

Xun You frowned and said, "This time the Goguryeo people have all their strength to attack the Qin army! Now that they are defeated in such a big way, the Goguryeo people will definitely not recover. This force is over!" Han Sui looked at Zhang He and said, "General Zhang, the Japanese have collapsed, and the Goguryeo people are over. Now we are the only one of our forces to deal with the Qin army!..." Zhang He glanced at Han Sui and asked, "General Han may as well say something."

Han Sui couldn't help but say, "The Qin army is a tiger and wolf man, and his combat power is so strong that he can be said to be eyeing the world! Now he has won one after another, and his strength is so strong that he cannot be as strong as his strength! Our army's strength is not much greater than that of the Qin army, and the successive defeats of the Japanese and Gogurye people will inevitably affect our morale! If this battle continues, it will be just a waste of troops, money and food, and it is really difficult to break through Liaodong County! If there is a mistake, I am afraid that Youzhou will be in danger! So I think we should retreat immediately when the enemy has not yet gathered and make plans."

Zhang He looked hesitant. He looked up at Xun You and asked, "What do you say, sir?" Xun You frowned and thought for a moment, and said to Zhang He: "What General Han said is not unreasonable. The Prime Minister decided to send troops before that, given the situation where both the Gogurye and the Japanese sent troops, it formed an absolute advantage over the Qin army in Liaodong. But who would have thought at any time that the Goguryee and I were so useless. In such a short time, the Goguryeee and the Japanese were all actually

It has collapsed, and it has become a situation for us to fight the Qin army on the one hand. At this moment, our army does not have any advantage in the Qin army. It is too risky to continue attacking under such circumstances. It is not enough for a wise man to do it. It would be fine to lose money, food and military strength in vain. If there is a mistake, the consequences will be really unimaginable. So I think that we should retreat. The army retreats back to Youzhou and ask the Prime Minister to make a decision later." Han Sui nodded and looked at Zhang He.

Zhang He made a decision and said resolutely: "What you said is so great, let us withdraw immediately!"

Xun You said: "There is a plan below that may result in unexpected results." Zhang He asked quickly. Xun You said: "It is better to make a big fuss to make Lu Bu notice it if our army retreats. Once Lu Bu learns the news of our army's retreat, he will inevitably lead the army to pursue it, but our army sets up an ambush on the way to retreat. As soon as Lu Bu arrives, the ambush will immediately come out from all directions! No matter how brave Lu Bu is, no matter how brave the Qin army is, he will not be spared!"

Zhang He and Han Sui's eyes lit up, and Zhang He slapped and said, "Good plan! Just do it!"

Not long after, the entire Cao army camp became noisy. The Cao army gathered and began to retreat.

At night, Ailang and several generals under his command discussed military affairs in front of the sand table. At this moment, a scout rushed in and reported: "Report to the King of Qin, Cao's army has retreated outside the city!" Everyone was shocked. Ailang asked in disbelief: "Retreat?" The scout replied: "That's right! The enemy's camp was noisy, and the subordinates saw that there was something different in the situation, so they used the cover of the night to investigate and saw with their own eyes that the various troops of the Cao army were gathering and evacuating the camp!"

Ailang became excited and muttered, "They must have known the news that the Goguryeo people were defeated! They were scared, so they wanted to escape!" After thinking for a while, he immediately shouted to Dian Wei, "Gather all the cavalry immediately and follow me to attack!" Dian Wei clasped his fists and agreed, and wanted to go down.

"Let's go!" Ju Yi suddenly called Dian Wei. Then he clasped his fists at Ailang and said, "Lord, this fact is strange! It's night now, even if the enemy wants to retreat, why do you have to make such a big noise? Isn't this clear telling us that they are going to evacuate?" Ailang and others were stunned, and they all felt that Ju Yi's words made sense, and they couldn't help but look at each other.

Ju Yi thought, "If the last general is expected, the enemy will definitely be the idea of ​​luring the enemy to attack. They retreated with such a big fanfare to let us know and go out of the city to pursue. At the same time, they set up ambush on the way to retreat. Once our army chased us, they would inevitably be attacked by their ambush!"

Everyone's expressions changed, and Ailang couldn't help but curse, "Damn it! It's so cunning! This must be the idea that bastard Xun You!" After a pause, he asked Ju Yi, "Ju Yi, according to your analysis, is Cao's retreat fake?"

Ju Yi thought for a moment and said, "It should not be fake. Because the situation has changed drastically, the situation of the three parties' attack was only the Cao army. Their strength does not have any advantage over our army. If we insist on attacking, although it cannot be said to be a death sentence, it will definitely not be worth the loss. Instead of doing nothing at the city, it is better to retreat immediately and take the initiative. This is also the common tactic of military tactics! It is just that the other party obviously wants to use the retreat action to plot against us." Ai Lang felt that Ju Yi's words were very reasonable, and he couldn't help but greet the women of the Xun You family and the Zhang He family. After thinking for a while, he smiled and said, "Since they want us to pursue, I will not pursue and attack his camp directly!" When the generals heard this, their eyes lit up. Ju Yi couldn't help but clasp his fists and praised, "Lord is wise!"

It is said that Zhang He retreated with great fanfare according to Xun You's suggestion, while he himself led tens of thousands of elite troops to leave the camp first and ambush the way to retreat. At this time, troops were retreating one by one, passing through the ambush area where Zhang He and his friends were waiting to the west. Zhang He was waiting quietly, waiting for the Qin army's pursuit troops to appear.

Time passed slowly while waiting. Although the wheels of people and horses rolled on the official road, there was silent and silent among the forests where tens of thousands of people were ambushed on both sides. Time always seemed particularly slow when people were waiting. Cao Jun ambushed in the forest became a little anxious. Only Zhang He was still sitting quietly on the horse's back, closing his eyes to rest, as if he was not anxious at all.

Suddenly, a loud roar came from the front. Zhang He, who was closing his eyes and resting, immediately opened his eyes and looked forward. Under the light moonlight, a large group of people were rushing towards him. Zhang He became excited and shouted, "Preparation!" The order was conveyed immediately. The Cao army officers and soldiers bent their bows and arrows to prepare for shooting, and everyone was excited.

After a while, the large group of people rushed into the ambush circle of Cao's army. Zhang He was about to order an attack, but at this moment, he suddenly heard Han Sui's voice below shouting loudly: "General Zhang! It's us! Don't shoot arrows!" Zhang He was stunned, and then ordered the troops to collect the arrows.

Han Sui was protected by Yan Xing and ran straight towards the mountain. Zhang He rode his horse to meet him and shouted, "General Han, what's going on?"

Han Sui sighed loudly, and then said with lingering fear: "The enemy actually came to fight the camp directly. Our army could not resist it. They were kicked into the camp, and there were heavy casualties!" Then he pointed to the thousands of soldiers and horses behind him and said: "The only one of my more than 10,000 troops left! All the supplies that were not transported away in the camp were lost!" Zhang He glanced at the defeated generals under Han Sui, and couldn't help but feel annoyed, and said in a deep voice: "It must be that Ju Yi who saw through our plan! It's really hateful!" Han Sui nodded, and

He asked, "General Zhang, what should I do now?" Ju Yi said, "You go and meet with Mr. Xun You and the others immediately. I will continue to break the rear." Han Sui nodded, immediately greeted his soldiers, and then ran straight to the west through this area. Zhang He divided his soldiers into two parts. When he was ambushing one step, the other retreated, and stopped retreating ten miles away and ambushed the spot. Then the troops that had been ambushed before retreating. In this cycle, the two armies slowly retreated to the west.

After Ailang defeated Han Sui's troops in the camp, the enemy must have been shocked and flew westward without any ambush. So he wanted to continue pursuing to further expand the results of the battle. However, the information sent back by the scout showed that Zhang He divided tens of thousands of elite troops into two parts to cover and retreat, step by step, and rushed forward to the hasty pursuit, but he was afraid that he would not get much benefit, so he dispelled the plan of continuing to pursue and retreated back to the city with spoils and prisoners. The battle in Liaodong has come to an end.
