Before the start of the war, it is often a matter of holding its breath and thinking about defeating the enemy in one breath. However, if victory comes too easily, it is easy to scare yourself.

Right now, that's it, the brave Tai Shici hesitated in front of the deep valley, and the generals who were watching the battle in the Chinese army also frowned. Cao Ying sent someone to intercept it, but it turned out to be such a bunch of waste dim sum, how weird to think.

"Lure the enemy 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 put forward his opinion. There are also big mountains in Youzhou, but it is rare to encounter such valleys. Even if there were, it wasn't necessary to go, and most of the time it could be detoured, so he didn't have a clue about the current situation.

"That's useless, there aren't enough stones on the cliffs, and the feathered arrows have lost their strength when they come down from above." On this topic, Fang Yue, a native, had the most right to speak, and he shook his head and denied Qin Feng's suggestion.

The valley in front of me is very long, and the cliffs on both sides of the valley are as steep as knives, and it is useless to occupy the top of the two walls unless the entire stone wall can be torn down. The top of the mountain was bare, no stones could be found, and the mountain wind was violent, and the feather arrows shot down from the cliff wall thousands of feet high, and fell less than halfway, and were blown away by the mountain wind to the middle of nowhere.

The phrase "setting up an ambush in a valley and taking advantage of the terrain to strike at the enemy" refers to the kind of hill that is less than a hundred feet high and the slope of the hill is not too steep. In a place like Bai Cheng Seventy-two Turns, no matter whether it is offensive or defensive, it can only make a fuss at the bottom of the valley.

"Anyway, let's take a look first." 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 temptation, fight steadily, and if there is any disadvantage, withdraw the troops." ”

The other party is Cao Jun, yes, except for Cao Ying's side, no one will be bored, and they will not be happy to run in front of themselves, and this army is also under the banner of Cao Ying. It's just a little puzzling that this enemy army only played the banner of Cao Ying's general, and did not lead the general banner of the main general.

Combined with the performance of this enemy soldier's waste home, Wang Yu couldn't help but think deeply about the mystery.

With limited intelligence, maintaining the original order, continuing to probe, or at least finding out the true intentions of the enemy army, became the only option.

Because, Wang Yu's goal is ahead, and he must use his attack to defeat the enemy!

Obviously, the enemy forces also had reasons not to retreat, and the second wave of defense was quickly organized.

Hundreds of men and horses poured out from the depths of the valley with shouts, and in the process of marching, they gathered and dispersed with skillful arrays to let their own side rout, and then lined up in a dense formation on the spot, with a large oar in the front row and spears in the back row, facing the pursuing Qingzhou army with a fearless posture.

This time, the enemy forces behaved slightly better. However, it doesn't seem like their fighting spirit and combat power have increased, but more like because of the terrain restrictions in the valley, the actual contact area between the two armies is smaller, so the battle lasted longer.

After the two sides fought for about a stick of incense, the Cao army disengaged from the Qingzhou army one after another and was defeated.

After repeating this several times, Cao's army, which was blocking the road, retreated all the way to the depths of the valley and disappeared at the first bend.

The abruptness of the appearance and the retreat were also fast, and it took only half an hour before and after. Among them, the proportion of time spent fighting is even smaller, and most of the time is spent on the road.

If it weren't for the hundreds of twisted corpses and different dead bodies thrown along the way, the people of Qingzhou probably wouldn't have been able to believe that the enemy was beaten without a shadow of a helpless fightback.

But things are obviously not so simple, and some details can be seen from Wang Yu's solemn expression.

Obviously, this resourceful and long-term lord was not confused by the small victory in front of him, but saw the deep meaning that ordinary people could not see.

"It's not a lure to the enemy, to be precise, it's not as simple as baiting the enemy!" Wang Yu suddenly burst out of a sentence.

"The Lord means ......"

"Perhaps, this enemy army has already used all its strength to fight!" Wang Yu ignored the puzzled gazes of the congregation, and was completely immersed in the analysis of the battle situation.

"Is this a tactic? Well, there is indeed some truth, if the enemy army can keep fighting and retreating like this, this 100-mile journey, we are afraid that we will have to walk for more than five days. Zhao Yun nodded, and shook his head again: "However, if this battle is going to continue like this, can they really afford it?" ”

"Don't you think it's strange? These people are not very good at fighting, but they are very bold and slimy. Those who fled at the beginning reorganized themselves in the last wave of defense! Ma Yunluo's eyesight is good, and his observation is meticulous enough, and he also pointed out a suspicious point.

"Huh? Ziyi, they seem to be blocked again......" Qin Feng looked in the direction pointed by Ma Yunluo, and exclaimed in surprise, and made a new discovery: "This time the enemy army seems to be resisting fiercely...... Ziyi, they lived and then retreated! Could it be that the enemy army is in ambush with heavy troops behind? That's terrible! Mowgli, aren't you a local? What does the valley look like behind the bend? ”

Finding that Tai Shici was beaten back, Qin Feng suddenly remembered a possible surname. If the valley behind is relatively spacious, the enemy army can ambush more troops there and besiege the pursuing Qingzhou army.

Fang Yue spread his hands, full of helplessness: "How do I know this?" ”

"You're a local, and you're a disciple of Jiangmen, why can't you even figure out the terrain?" Qin Feng was also anxious.

"I said crazy, you figure it out first! Do you know what this place is? Do you think the name of the seventy-two crutches was called in vain? It is said that it is seventy-two turns, in fact, the valley road here turns around, I don't know how many turns, not to mention that I only occasionally walk a few times, even if it is a perennial foot trader, you ask how many can remember all the terrain? ”

Fang Yue's face was flushed by him, and he shouted loudly: "Besides, if those thieves on the other side really have such an idea, even if you are careful enough in the valley, what should you do when you leave the valley?" ”

Being reminded by Fang Yue, Qin Feng was also dumbfounded: "That's what you said......

Perhaps, the enemy army is using these ragtag armies to drain their own physical strength, and then ambush thousands of elites at the valley mouth at the other end. To put it bluntly, it is a strategy to wait for labor and fatigue the enemy!

If this is the case, this trick can be said to be almost incomprehensible.

This enemy force is very tenacious, and seems to be very accustomed to being beaten and scattered, and it also seems to be accustomed to walking mountain roads, and it moves very quickly, and regroupes quickly.

Although the combat effectiveness of the Qingzhou Army is far superior to that of the other party, in this rugged terrain, it cannot exert its full combat power, and at most it can only take turns to attack. If you want to win quickly, it's not impossible.

"Even if there are no ambushes on the other side of the valley, as long as it is delayed for three or five days, I am afraid that the reinforcements will also arrive, and by then, we will have gone deep into the valley, and it will be a dilemma!"

Zhuge Liang, who was camping in the back, also noticed that something was wrong, and walked forward with a few staff, listened quietly for a while, and said worriedly: "Cao Ying's move is right in the key point of our army." And what he paid was nothing more than a few thousand thieves who were poisoned or stubborn. ”

After he said this, the generals immediately figured out the identity of this strange enemy army.

Isn't it, familiar with the terrain, quick to move, and tenacious, but their performance in array warfare is extremely poor, and only these Montenegrin thieves who are accustomed to guerrilla warfare have these contradictory characteristics at the same time.

"Pass my order, Mingjin withdraw the troops!" As if as a footnote to Zhuge Liang's judgment, Wang Yu suddenly broke off and said, "Let Ziyi withdraw, there is no need to continue to fight this kind of useless battle." ”

"Dangdang ......" The piercing sound of golden gongs resounded through the valley, and the battle came to an end.

"These miscellaneous combat power is very poor, but there are more crooked and evil methods......" Tai Shici took off his helmet and walked towards the formation with a scolding grin, looking unfinished.

Upon hearing the vanguard had once again cleared the obstacle and were about to continue the pursuit. This battle seemed to be overwhelming, killing hundreds of enemies, but Tai Shici, who was in the game, was very depressed.

A large number of kills were actually only the two times when they conquered the Taniguchi camp and entered the valley, and in the back, the enemy became more and more cunning. Refusing to fight head-on, he just jumped around like a group of monkeys in front of him, and once he caught up, he either found a pit in the seemingly flat place, or tripped over a stone placed in the middle of the road.

The pit is not deep, that is, it just has no ankle, but it is quite a pit. If a soldier in full iron armor accidentally steps on it, he will lose his balance and fall down, or he will directly sprain his ankle and lose his combat effectiveness.

In the battle with the enemy, the heavy armor soldiers only had two lightly wounded, and as a result, they were trapped by more than a dozen traps. The ankle was twisted to the point where it was not life-threatening, but for the next few days, it was definitely not necessary to stand up on its own.

"That's not all, these scumbags have set up some other ambush around the corner! This group of monkeys, such a bare mountain wall, they can climb up empty-handed, dozens of people, holding fist-sized stones and throwing them down...... Don't talk about the sons, I didn't watch out, I was smashed, I was really angry! ”

Even if Tai Shi Ci didn't say it, Wang Yu also saw the dent on his helmet, thinking that he was rushing to kill too fiercely, in order to kill more enemies, he deliberately didn't hide, but it turned out to be such a laughable result.

After appeasing Tai Shici for a few words, Wang Yu gave up his intention to continue the attack, leaving a small number of soldiers and horses on guard, and the whole team joined the ranks of camping.

He himself was not idle, he found a few local soldiers from the army who were in the vicinity, and then sent people to the vicinity to look for the mountain people, intending to learn more about the terrain of the seventy-two turns.

Wang Yu originally raised troops in Hanoi, and there were many Hanoi people in the army, and in the cavalry alone, he found several families in the area of Gongxian County. With the confirmation of these people, coupled with the stories of the mountain people, he has a more comprehensive understanding of the topography of Baicheng.

So, when the camp was set down and it was getting late, when Wang Yu convened the generals for a military discussion, his first sentence was like this: "I'm afraid things are a little tricky......"
