Chapter 1426: Han Banner World (One Hundred and Sixteen) Ambush on Four Sides
Zhang Yi ignored Yin Cuo's expression as if he had seen a ghost. He held the tea cup and tasted it slowly while saying leisurely: "My king knows everything about everything, and he is sure that General Tan will definitely do it." We sent troops from Shanyang to threaten Wuguan's retreat. We wanted to use this to relieve Qu Wan from the siege and send Qu Wan's 200,000 troops back to Chu, hoping to form a confrontation with my army attacking Chu and postpone our plan to destroy Chu indefinitely. Only in this way can your army that has occupied Jiaocheng be valuable in the future. Otherwise, if Chu is destroyed, you will naturally not be able to survive alone. General Yin, I wonder if I am right or not?"
Yin Cuo's soul finally returned to his body, and his face turned pale. Since the other party had already expected Tan Feng's move, he must have made corresponding arrangements. In other words, Tan Feng's departure was a disaster.
"What do you want?" he asked dryly.
Zhang Yi smiled: "General Yin wants to ask how we are going to deal with it, right? In fact, it doesn't hurt to tell you now, because even if you know our arrangements now, even if you rush to report news or support day and night, you will still be able to It was of no use. The moment General Tan entered Shanyang County, he had already fallen into the trap we had arranged in advance. The Second Army of the Young Guards was already waiting for General Tan. Oh, By the way, there are also two cavalry divisions from Wuguan, the Xiongnu Independent Cavalry Division and the Donghu Independent Cavalry Division.”
Yin Cuo sat softly on the chair, and his whole body seemed to have no strength. He looked at Zhang Yi and said feebly: "In that case, why don't you send troops to capture Jiaocheng? You must know that Jiaocheng is currently defending Empty and weak."
With a ding sound, Zhang Xia closed the lid of a tea cup and placed it on the coffee table. He looked at Yin Cuo and said, "General Yin, to be honest, if we come to fight in Jiaocheng now, you really have no resistance. , but my king thinks that there is a better way to solve this matter. After all, once the war starts, people will die. Now that the overall situation has been decided, the king thinks that it is best to solve the problem without killing people. "
"Are you trying to persuade me to surrender?" Yin Cuo said feebly.
"You can say that!" Zhang Yi smiled and said: "Actually, they should send someone who is more articulate and better at this to persuade the general. But General Yin also knows that now is the critical time for my Han Dynasty to destroy Chu. We really There are not enough manpower, and if you want to persuade General Yin to return to the Han Dynasty, if you want to express sincerity, the person who comes will naturally have to have a certain status and representativeness, so I was selected. I am not good at persuading people. Facts and truth, General Yin, those who know the current situation are heroes. In the current situation, even if you refuse to submit and fight to the end, it will only add countless graves to Jiaocheng disciples. To put it more bluntly, we. Or there is no need to fight. As long as General Tan’s troops are eliminated and Chu State is destroyed, do you think there is any point in holding on to Jiaocheng?”
"It's really meaningless." Yin Cuo murmured.
“It seems that General Yin agrees with what I said.
Since it has no meaning at all, why should we let the originally peaceful Jiaocheng turn into a battlefield? When I came here, I heard the shouts of the young men practicing on the school field. But if a war really broke out, how many of them would come back alive? General Yin, saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda! Even for the sake of your own future, there is no need to hold on anymore. "Zhang Yi said sincerely.
Yin Cuo sighed: "Unless I get the exact news that General Tan Feng has failed."
"No problem!" Zhang Yi clasped his hands together, clapped his hands and said with a smile: "I believe the news will come back in a few days. Since General Yin has said so, I will have to bother you here for a few days and enjoy it. The dangerous scenery of Jiaocheng. General Yin, now that we have finished talking, shall we get some food and drinks for a drink? Look at my figure, I will feel dizzy from hunger even if I don’t eat. My body feels weak!”
Looking at the other party's fat figure, Yin Cuo smiled bitterly. With all the fat on his body, he was probably not going to starve to death even if he didn't eat and drink only water for ten and a half days. However, the other party's indifferent attitude made him even more panicked, fearing that General Tan and his tens of thousands of troops would really suffer.
Shanyang County, Zhongcun Town, Tan Feng's face was ashen, and his slightly trembling arms clearly showed his panic at the moment, because the scout who had just been responsible for exploring the path brought him a frightening news. On the top, a Han army appeared, not the troops of the First Army of the Young Guards Corps stationed at Wuguan, but the troops of the Second Army, a division of nearly ten thousand people, blocking their way in Yinhua Town.
The Second Army of the Young Guards Corps should not appear here. All the intelligence has been revealing. In Danfeng, only Yang Dasha's First Army is there. But why did they appear in Shanyang County? Is there just one division, or is the entire Second Army here?
Spies were sent out one after another in all directions. If only one division of troops stopped them, they could try to fight. If nothing could be done, they could withdraw immediately. But what if tens of thousands of people in the Second Army were in Shanyang County? ?
The most terrifying thing is that the Second Army is in Shanyang County, waiting for him. When he thought of this possibility, Tan Feng felt like the end was coming.
The army stopped advancing, and Tan Feng, who was stationed in Zhongjun Village, lived like a year. However, the scouts sent out brought back all bad news.
At least one regiment of the Second Army appeared in Gaobadian Town, traces of Han army activities were also discovered in Changgou Town, and Han troops also appeared in Xiquan Town, and they themselves were surrounded. Judging from the size of the Han army that has been discovered, all the Second Army of the Young Guards must be here.
"General, our plan is completely under the control of the Han army. We can't go to Wuguan. Now we have to think about how to escape. Before the enemy has completely sealed the encirclement, we quickly withdraw our troops and fight back. Go to the city!" Sima Yan said nervously. The commander of the Second Army of the Young Guards, Guo Laowei, is also a powerful general under Gao Yuan and a figure as famous as Yang Dasha. Even in a fair match, Sima Yan does not think that his army has a chance of winning. What's more, now The other party was sitting back and waiting, waiting for his group to get into the trap.
"Go back?" Tan Feng shook his head and said: "It won't work. The other side finally waited until we left Jiaocheng. How could they allow us to return to that place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack? They must have laid a trap on our retreat. We have heavy troops, and many spies have failed to capture Guo Laowen's military headquarters. Wherever he is, he must be on our way back. If we go back, we can only fall into a trap. "
"Then what should we do now?" Sima Yan was confused and had no idea.
"Guo Laowen only has more than 20,000 people. It is impossible to block us from all sides. There is no way back, and it is impossible to go to Yinhua Town. That is the only way to Wuguan, and the Han army will definitely guard it heavily. , Among these ambushes, there must be a direction where the opponent's bluff is. What we have to do is to find this place and then stand out. "
"Where is this direction?" Sima Yan stared at the map and searched on it.
"It's impossible for them to let us go to Gaoba Town. If we go in that direction, we will penetrate into the Han territory. An army of tens of thousands of people will break into the Han mainland. It will definitely deal a huge blow to the Han people. But if we go towards Xiquan Town, it may be a way out. This road leads to the mainland of Chu State, goes deep into Chu State, and pushes us into Chu State. This may be one of their thoughts." Tan Feng had already thought about it. I regained my composure and my thoughts became clearer.
"At this time, hundreds of thousands of Han troops attacked the Chu Kingdom and forced us into the Chu territory. It was just an additional enemy army. If we kill one sheep, we will kill a group of sheep." Tan Feng said mockingly to himself.
"But an unknown number of Han troops have been discovered in the direction of Xiquan." Sima Yan said.
"It is precisely because of this that I decided to go in that direction. You see, in the direction of Yinhua Town, we can clearly detect that they have at least one division of heavy troops stationed, but in the direction of Xiquan, we cannot detect it. In fact, the opponent wants us to hesitate and not dare to go in this unknown direction, but I have to go here." Tan Feng sneered: "The Han army can mobilize the second army here, which is the limit. I don't believe they still have more troops. Sima Yan, you lead your troops to make a feint towards Yinhua Town, pretending that we are going to attack Yinhua Town, but still want to attack Wuguan, while I will lead the main force to cross the Yinhua River. , Capture Xiquan with lightning speed. After our troops arrive at Xiquan, immediately retreat and keep up with me, and we will go deep into Chu territory." Tan Feng slapped the table.
Sima Yan nodded, "I understand, General." He paused and sighed: "In this case, our little foundation in Jiaocheng will be lost. From now on, we will really become a team. A lone army without a territory is wandering around.”
"You have to be alive first before you can think about anything else." Tan Feng said coldly.
Guo Laowen indeed placed his military headquarters in Changgou Town to prevent Tan Feng from having the opportunity to return to Jiaocheng. This was an established strategy. At this time, the domestic rebellion against Jiaocheng should have begun. I think that Yin Cuo, under the general trend, Forced, there was no other way out except surrendering to the big man. However, the other directions were different from what Tan Feng expected. Under Guo Laowen's arrangement, the direction of Gaoba Town was extremely empty. , only one battalion of troops was bluffing, but Xiquan City, which was empty of troops as Tan Feng expected, had a full division there.
"The king wants to destroy you in Shanyang, but he won't let you run away again." Guo Laowen listened proudly to the reports of the scouts. Tan Feng's reaction gave him a clue. "Since you want to go to Xiquan, it will be difficult to go back. Don't forget, I have two independent cavalry divisions to cooperate!" (To be continued.)
