Chapter 927: Sacrifice to protect the car
Three days later, Zhou Jiyun finally couldn't sit still in the tent anymore. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info He personally went to the front line. The Chu army's offensive this time was too strange, it lasted for three days, and there was almost no break, even if within three days, under the strict defense of the Qi army, they killed no less than 5,000 people, but it didn't make them have the slightest tendency to stop, such a desperate battle, so Zhou Jiyun couldn't help but be surprised, he and Cheng Wuben, Jiang Tao, they have fought for a long time, this is not their style.
Standing on the high ground, staring at the battlefield below, the Chu army was still attacking one after another, and after one wave was repulsed, leaving behind the corpses everywhere, they temporarily retreated, but after a while, another wave of Chu troops pounced again.
Looking at it, Zhou Jiyun's face finally changed a little.
"Go and recruit Bai Song." He said to his own soldiers.
Bai Song is a fierce general under Zhou Jiyun.
"General!" Bai Song, who came in a hurry, was covered with blood on his armor, and it was obvious that as the commander of the front line, he also went down to the battlefield himself.
"Have you been like this all these days?" Zhou Jiyun pointed to the battlefield in the distance.
"Yes, General. Chu Jun is better to say that there are too many long-range attack weapons, and I almost have an illusion that Cheng Lao'er has concentrated all his long-range weapons here. Bai Song shook his head, puzzled. Is this a fatal blow? But the offensive of the Chu army is strong for a while, and weak for a while, which makes people incomprehensible. ”
Zhou Jiyun's face suddenly fell. Looking back at Yue Kaishan who was following him, Yue Kaishan was also abrupt, and his face was full of wry smiles.
"Hopefully it's not too late!" Yue Kaishan Road.
"What's not too late?" The white pine is somewhat inexplicable.
"I'm the old man." Zhou Jiyun swallowed a mouthful of saliva, "Damn, Lao Tzu still underestimated him after all, he really dared to make such a determination, regardless of their emperor Lao Tzu, he ran away by himself." Kaishan, how many days do you think he has been running? Three days? ”
"Two days at most!" Yue Kaishan shook his head.
"Two days?" Zhou Jiyun showed a smile on his face again, "In this kind of weather, I can't run far in two days, I still hope to catch up with him, even if I can't catch up with him, follow his ass over, he has no chance to tie his heels." ”
"General, you said Cheng Lao'er ran away? So down here? Bai Song pointed to the battlefield in the distance.
"There are some elites mixed in a rabble!" Zhou Jiyun sighed and said: "There is no vanity under the fame, Cheng Wuben is a strong man with a broken wrist, leaving behind all the auxiliaries, and at least more than 10,000 elites, just to escape in order to change the main force?" Hehe, I'm afraid I may not be able to escape. White pine. ”
"The last general!" Bai Song said loudly.
"Order the whole army, all of them to attack, counterattack, and destroy all the enemies in front of you." Zhou Jiyun waved his hand and said.
"Yes!" Bai Song turned around and strode away.
"Come, summon cavalry, and prepare to pursue." Zhou Jiyun turned around and walked back: "Brother Yue, I will personally lead the troops to chase Cheng Lao'er, and you will stay in the camp." ”
Yue Kaishan nodded. "Be careful, Cheng Lao'er kills you a horse pistol."
"Of course, that's why I'm going to call all the cavalry back." Zhou Jiyun said with a smile.
While the two walked back, they discussed some details of the pursuit, but several fast horses galloped from a distance, ran to the two of them, turned over and dismounted, and looked at their outfits, but they were scouts sent out by the Qi army, but the two of them looked a little worse now, their bodies were full of scars, the helmet was gone, and the black hair on their heads was shaved into yin and yang heads.
Zhou Jiyun's pupils contracted.
"General, we were ordered to pursue the cavalry of the Chu State, but we were captured by mistake, insulting the prestige of the Great Qi Army, and ten thousand deaths!" Several scouts touched the ground with their foreheads.
Zhou Jiyun looked at them coldly, once the scouts were captured, there was no reason to survive, how could the Chu cavalry let them back?
"Where are the cavalry of the Chu army?" He asked coldly.
"They have crossed the big river and are far away from Zhou County." A small leader who looked like a scout took something out of his arms and raised his hands above his head, "A general of the Qi State asked me to bring this letter to the general. ”
Taking the letter from the scout's hand, Zhou Jiyun didn't rush to open it, "What's the name of that general of the Chu State?" DID YOU KNOW? ”
"That man said his name was Jiang Tao, and he was an old friend of the general!" The scout replied.
Zhou Jiyun raised the thin envelope in his hand, but it seemed to weigh a thousand catties, and after a while, he slowly tore open the seal.
As far as the eye can see, it is a painting. Jiang Tao's painting is good, and the place he painted is also quite familiar to Zhou Jiyun, the towering city wall, the high fluttering flag, and the Tianlong Mountain standing outside the city a little distance. The place on Jiang Tao's painting is Chang'an, the capital of Qi State.
Is it okay to invite the people of Chang'an City to drink and conspire to get drunk?
A line of big characters is dripping with ink, gold hooks and silver paintings, looking at this line of big characters, Zhou Jiyun seems to see Jiang Tao throwing his pen and laughing at the sky after writing this line of words.
He couldn't help clenching his fists, and the bones of his whole body crackled at this moment.
"Jiyun, he just made a random painting to disturb your mind, even if his 10,000 cavalry killed all the way to Chang'an, do you think it is possible for him to kill under Chang'an City?" Yue Shankai on the side raised his voice and said sharply.
Zhou Jiyun's body shook slightly, and he suddenly came to his senses: "Of course he can't kill under Chang'an City, but he can kill a sea of corpses and blood along the way, and he can turn the places he passes through into patches of white land." If he is killed under Chang'an City, even if he arrives at Chang'an City, he is only left alone, I think I won't be able to save my head. ”
Yue Kaishan suddenly fell silent.
"Kaishan, do you think Cheng Wuben really withdrew?" Zhou Jiyun asked suddenly.
Yue Kaishan thought for a while, and his original clear thoughts suddenly became a little confused at this time. Is Cheng Wuben going to run away, or is he going to Luzhou? At the moment, he really couldn't speak.
"I figured it out. This strategy was not conceived by Cheng Wuben, it was made by Jiang Tao. Zhou Jiyun sighed: "I lost a game." He really put me in a dilemma, should I stay and attack Cheng Wuben, or should I go after him? ”
Yue Kaishan smiled bitterly.
"I'm going to have to chase him." Zhou Jiyun shook his head: "Open the mountain, I will take all the cavalry to pursue Jiang Tao, no matter what, I can't let him kill in the hinterland of my Qi country and harm the people, you, with all the foot soldiers, go straight to Kunling Pass!" ”
"What if Cheng Wuben didn't leave at all, but went to Luzhou?" Yue Kaishan asked.
"Regardless of him, you will concentrate on it, and advance steadily towards Kunling Pass. If Cheng Wuben is going to Luzhou, then let him go, and I will write a letter to the prince. However, I have a hunch that since Cheng Wuben Jiang Tao even used this trick, they would never go to the dead place of Luzhou. ”
"You have to be careful, although Jiang Tao is a scholar, he uses strange soldiers, and he likes to use swords to go out of the way, this kind of person, although it is a double-edged sword, but once he succeeds, he will suffer heavy losses."
"Double-edged sword, killing the enemy also hurts yourself, I'm not afraid of such a guy, he won a game against me, I went to get his head back." Zhou Jiyun only lost his mind a little for a moment, and in the blink of an eye, he returned to his original demeanor.
"I'll go get Jiang Tao, and you take Kunling Pass down. If Cheng Wuben really slipped back, he would definitely not stay in Kunling Pass for long, he knew very well that Kunling Pass would not be able to hold it. Zhou Jiyun said.
"Indeed, Cheng Wuben has this vision, if he really retreats, he will definitely retreat to Jinghu and reconstruct the defense line there." Yue Kaishan nodded.
"Jinghu!" Zhou Jiyun suddenly laughed: "Where does the ghost shadow have some means, I hope this time it can work, if the ghost shadow's action can be successful this time, then even if Cheng Wuben retreats to Jinghu, he still can't hold it." ”
Yue Kaishan's body shook slightly, and he looked at Zhou Jiyun, but Zhou Jiyun had no intention of going on.
"Kaishan, I'm sorry, I can't tell you this news for the time being." Zhou Jiyun glanced at Zhou Jiyun with some embarrassment.
"It's okay, but you told me the previous ones, and I think I can roughly guess one, two, three!" Yue Kaishan smiled.
"Really?"
"Quanzhou, Ning!" Yue Shankai spat out four words.
Zhou Jiyun laughed and stretched out his thumb at Yue Kaishan, "There is yours." ”
In the heavy snow, an army trudged through the snow with difficulty, and at the back of the team, Cheng Wuben's figure was a little rickety, in order to get him out, his best students, disciples, and generals led 10,000 cavalry to kill the hinterland of Qi. They can't come back. In order to allow him to escape, he invested 10,000 elites, mixed with more than 20,000 young and strong auxiliary soldiers, and launched an attack on the Qi army in turn for three days without sleep.
These people, not even knowing his true purpose, deceived them.
Looking back at the more than 30,000 Chu troops on the march, Cheng Wuben couldn't help but shed two lines of old tears. He clenched his hands into fists and slammed deeply to the ground towards the place where Jiang Tao left.
"Jiang Tao, go all the way!"
Turning around, he shook himself to the ground in the direction of Luzhou: "Your Majesty, I hope that you can break out of the encirclement, and the old minister can't come to save you alone, I need to take these soldiers back to build a second line of defense for Da Chu, even if you can only defend half of the country for Da Chu, if Your Majesty can break through the siege and want to punish the old minister for not saving him when he sees death, the old minister is also willing, Your Majesty, you cherish it!" ”
Straightened up, Cheng Wuben wiped away the tears on his face, the rickety figure straightened up again, and his own soldiers brought the war horse, he turned over on the horse and said sharply: "Speed up and retreat." ”
