Chapter Twenty-Six: Breaking Yuan's Technique and Capturing Ji Ling
Lu Bu's eyes lit up, "Wei Gong is really extraordinary, have you heard it, you have to use your brains more in the future war, don't just know how to rush and kill like General Ben." ”
Cao Xing and the others laughed, and Lu Bu admitted that he didn't use his brains to fight, but instead of making them look down on him, he felt that Lu Bu was very kind.
"Just do what Wei Gong said, Hou Cheng, you lead five hundred soldiers to ambush on the mountain, be sure to hide it, don't let Yuan Shu's scouts find out, and when Yuan Shu's army enters the valley halfway, block the road with boulders."
"No." Hou Cheng hugged his fist excitedly, such an attack gave people a feeling of being more energetic than rushing to kill on the battlefield.
"Anyway, there are a lot of rocks on the mountain, so prepare more and greet the enemy hard." Lu Bu admonished.
"General rest assured, when the time comes, it will definitely make Yuan Shu's soldiers hate their parents for giving them two legs." Hou Cheng slapped his chest on the mountain.
"The rest of the people, listen to my orders when the time comes, and in this battle, you must let Yuan Shu see the demeanor of my and state athletes."
"No." The generals in the audience said in unison.
Yuan Shu got the news that Ji Ling's army was defeated, and there were only a dozen cavalry left in the five hundred cavalry, and the Bingzhou army only lost hundreds of people, he felt like a stone was pressed in his chest, he relied on cavalry the most, and he was so unbearable in front of the Bingzhou army.
Thinking of Lu Bu's smug face at this time, Yuan Shu was even more angry.
"Speed up the march." Yuan Shu blamed everything on Lu Bu, as long as Lu Bu was defeated, the lost war horses would be replaced, and Lu Bu, who had only thousands of horses, was the softest persimmon in his opinion.
"Lord, march cautiously and send more scouts, now that our army is defeated, and the morale of the state army is high, we have to guard against it." Yang Hongdao.
"Hmph, Lu Bu Xiao'er took advantage of the terrain, Ji Ling doesn't know how to march and fight, how can General Ben give him a chance." Yuan Shu was unimpressed by Yang Hong's advice.
"Lord, there is a dangerous place ahead, be careful that the other party has an ambush."
"What kind of dangerous place, you have said many times before that there is an ambush, and I haven't seen the shadow of the state army for most of the day, they are in a hurry now, how can they have time to ambush us." Yang Hong's many suggestions were ineffective, but they made him a little timid, and Yuan Shu's tone was also not good.
"My lord, if the state army sets up an ambush on the mountain, and when our army enters the valley, it will be dangerous." Yang Hong persuaded again.
Yuan Shu glanced around, pondered for a moment, and said, "Tell the scouts to search the mountain quickly." ”
Yang Hong let out a long sigh, he also saw that Yuan Shu was eager to take revenge, but even his own army was a little unbearable, and once it was taken advantage of by Lu Bu, the loss would be even greater.
Maybe it was because he understood Yuan Shu's eager thoughts, and the speed of the scouts searching the mountain was very fast, but he took a hasty look at it, and saw that there was not even a bird on the mountain, so he returned, but he didn't know that the Bingzhou army hiding in the shadows was also sweating, and if these scouts walked a little further, they might find them.
Hearing the news of the scout's report, Yuan Shu relieved himself and ordered the army to advance at full speed.
Some cold valleys made Yuan Shu have a very bad feeling, as if there were eyes staring at him all around.
"Lord, something is wrong." Yang Hong didn't care about Yuan Shu and would be dissatisfied with himself.
"What's wrong again?" Yuan Shu did not show impatience this time.
"It's so quiet in this valley."
"It's cold weather, it's strange if it's not quiet." Yuan Shu waved his hand and said, the army has already entered the valley for nearly half of it, and if it is delayed any longer, it will be farther away from Lu Bu.
Yang Hong wanted to speak and stopped, and could only watch the soldiers walk into the valley.
Hou Cheng, who had already been prepared, saw that the time was almost up, rubbed his hands, took the lead in pushing down a big stone, and said loudly: "Smash it for me." ”
The overwhelming boulders made Yuan Shu, who was about to enter the valley, frightened, hurriedly reined in his horse and shouted: "Withdraw, you have fallen for Lu Bu's trick." ”
The boulder pushed down from the top of the mountain is very fast, and the power is huge, once it is hit, it is definitely a blur of flesh and blood, which gives a great psychological shadow to the soldiers in the valley, no one wants to be killed by the falling stone, you push me, you want to quickly escape from this hell on earth, Ji Ling kept shouting in front of him, but it didn't have much effect.
The soldiers who rushed forward desperately and were about to escape from the valley could faintly see the valley mouth, and they were greeted by a merciless rain of arrows.
The boulders and the rain of arrows quickly destroyed the will of Yuan Shu's soldiers, and many soldiers who went to the battlefield for the first time encountered such a situation, howling and crying, and the weapons in their hands had already been thrown aside.
"Shameless Lu Bu." Yuan Shu's face turned pale, and the anger in his heart could not be expressed in words.
"My lord, when the army retreats, save the body of ten thousand gold." Yang Hong said helplessly.
"Withdraw! It's just a pity that General Ben's general Ji Ling. Yuan Shu reluctantly gave the order to withdraw the army, even if he forced the soldiers to attack, what could this group of soldiers who were about to be frightened do, just send them to death.
Although Ji Ling was defeated, his position in Yuan Shu's heart was still irreplaceable, but he didn't expect to be blocked in the valley by a boulder.
"Surrender or kill." Lu Bu shouted.
"Surrender and don't kill, surrender and don't kill." Thousands of soldiers shouted in unison.
The soldiers of Yuan in the valley put down their weapons one after another, and many generals also had no choice but to put down their weapons, and the fighting spirit of these soldiers had been completely destroyed.
Ji Ling looked up to the sky and shouted: "Lord, Ji Ling is incompetent!" ”
Lu Bu pointed at Ji Ling and said, "Trap the camp and capture Ji Ling alive." ”
"No." Gao Shun commanded the trapped camp and soon approached Ji Ling, and the stubborn Ji Ling's personal guards were mercilessly slaughtered.
Ji Ling found that his bravery was not of much use in front of the trapping camp, unless he was injured desperately, it was difficult to kill any of the soldiers, their cooperation was really good, giving people a feeling of nowhere to start.
There were more and more wounds on his body, and Ji Ling felt that his strength was slowly draining, and the three-pointed knife, which was very light in the past, became heavier and heavier.
"Ah, I'm not reconciled!" Ji Ling was firmly pressed to the ground by several soldiers and yelled unwillingly.
"General, this person's martial arts are not weak, and he injured more than a dozen of my soldiers." Gao Shun escorted Ji Ling, who was tied up with five flowers, to Lu Bu.
"General Ji is really a rare guest, do you want to follow General Ben to see the prairie?" Lu Bu laughed.
"Lu Bu, with conspiracy and trickery, is not a good man." Ji Ling shouted.
"Huh, intrigue? As long as it can catch you, it's a good strategy. Lu Bu sneered.
"Come on, I'm going to take care of General Ji."
After cleaning up the battlefield, Lu Bu personally broke off and ordered the army to go first and catch up with the people and the baggage team.
In the battle with Yuan Shu, none of the Zhou army died, and more than 4,000 Yuan soldiers were captured, which greatly dampened the strength of the Yuan army.
