Chapter 60: Let Him Go
Ding Yan led the team to catch up with Zhao Yun, only to see that the latter was fighting with the general.
Hearing the movement, the generals who led the team were shocked. He was also extremely remorseful at the moment. One blow made Li Daniu flee, making him arrogant, and he chased after him as soon as his mind was hot. I thought that I would be able to capture the first level of this ramming in a few moments, but I didn't expect that Li Daniu had a strong body and was also a good hand at escaping, which caused him to turn around and fail to catch up. Later, Zhao Yun arrived, but he didn't know that he had fallen for the plan to divert the tiger from the mountain.
Zhao Yun is as strong as ninety-six, where is his opponent. In just a few rounds, his hands were numb and he almost couldn't hold the big knife. As soon as Zhao Yun saw that he was gradually unable to support him, he immediately shouted loudly, and the silver spear stabbed out like a poisonous dragon.
"Come on."
The military commander who led the team was suddenly shocked, and hurriedly clenched the blade with both hands and tried his best to lift it up. With a bang, the silver spear was swung away. Zhao Yun was slightly surprised, but his subordinates showed no mercy, and smashed the silver spear down.
With a bang, the leading generals were no longer able to stop Zhao Yun from smashing with all his might. The big knife was taken off and fell to the ground with a clatter. Zhao Yun knocked off his weapon, and the silver spear shook and slammed into his shoulder. With a scream, he was smashed off his horse on the spot. Before he could turn over and get up, more than a dozen Pu Dao soldiers swarmed up and put the bright Pu knife on his neck.
"Tie it up." Zhao Yun coldly commanded.
After a while, the leading military general turned into a zongzi and was tied up and thrown to the ground. Li Daniu saw his embarrassed appearance and laughed happily. The breath of bird that was chased and killed before was all out.
Zhao Yun captured this general and counted the soldiers and horses. Fortunately, this military general pursued and killed Li Daniu wholeheartedly, but he did not chase and kill Pu Daobing. Except for a few unlucky ghosts who broke their legs, they were basically undamaged.
"Take it back and hand it over to the military advisor." Zhao Yun learned that there were no casualties, and his face improved a lot.
"General Zilong." Ding Yan arrived just in time and shouted from afar.
Zhao Yun looked up and saw Ding Yan coming, and rode his horse to meet him. Coming to Ding Yan, the latter smiled and said, "Congratulations to General Zilong for capturing the enemy general." ”
"Thanks to the ingenuity of the military advisor." Zhao Yun smiled in return.
All this is Ding Yan's clever plan. He originally wanted to set up an ambush in the first-line gorge, but Ding Yan rejected this plan. Instead of setting up an ambush in the first-line gorge, he ran to the mouth of the gorge to lay an ambush. This baffled him. But it turned out that Ding Yan's clever plan was extremely correct.
First of all, Ding Yan led the team to take the lead, deliberately showing the enemy's weakness and dispelling the enemy's general's vigilance. Immediately followed by retreat without a fight, so that the enemy general got carried away and chased and killed. Next, Li Daniu fought alone, and the enemy general was defeated and retreated, causing the enemy general to burst with self-confidence, so he forgot to abandon his soldiers and horses to chase and kill alone. Relying on Li Daniu's good strength, the enemy general was unable to catch up. Taking advantage of this time, he led the cavalry to take a small path and go around behind the opponent to charge, and crushed the enemy army in one fell swoop. Then Ding Yan led the team back, established the victory in one fell swoop, and swallowed this vanguard force.
In the final count, there were no casualties among the cavalry. There were no casualties on Li Daniu's side. Only Ding Yanbu was wounded 25 people and 20 killed. Of the fifty Pu sword soldiers, only five remained intact. The heavy infantry did not lose a single person. However, the total destruction of the opponent's 300 Pu sword soldiers can be described as an out-and-out victory.
"Strategist, what should you do with this person?" Zhao Yun immediately turned to the topic after greeting two sentences. According to his idea, he naturally tried to recruit the enemy general. Even if you can't surrender, you have to send someone to escort you back to Xanadu Village and hand it over to the lord.
"Let him go." Ding Yan smiled and spit out three words.
Zhao Yun was stunned, his face was incredulous. At the moment of the great enemy, the opponent has one less general, and the other side has a little more chance of winning. There is no reason to capture the opponent and put the person back.
Ding Yan smiled and said nothing, walked straight to Li Daniu's side, and ordered: "Untie him and let him go." ”
Li Daniu was stunned and asked blankly, "Why did you let him go?" ”
Ding Yan was helpless, ignored this rammed goods, and turned to the leading military general and said indifferently: "Go back and tell your father-in-law, my father-in-law doesn't want to be evil with your master." Tell your lord to withdraw immediately, otherwise he will be the end of your day. Come on, untie him. ”
As the words fell, a Pak knife soldier stepped forward and slashed the rope with a knife. The leading military general struggled to stand up, rubbed his sore wrist, and glanced at Ding Yan in disbelief.
"Don't doubt our sincerity." Ding Yan motioned to send his broadsword, and then waved his troops to make way out. As for the horse, it became a trophy.
The leading military general was silent for a moment, thinking that he had saved his life, and he was not afraid that the other party would have ulterior motives, so he simply hugged his fist and strode away with a big knife.
Zhao Yun watched him go away, and asked in a deep voice, "Military Master, why did you let him go?" ”
"It means threefold." Ding Yancheng held three fingers in his chest and raised three fingers: "First, our purpose is just to drag the other party's footsteps. Annihilation of the Pioneer Battalion, we must let them know that we have learned the news. Second, if they were vigilant, they would have marched more cautiously to avoid another ambush. In this way, the purpose of delaying the other party's footsteps is achieved. If they were to march on a large scale regardless of everything, and the mountain roads would be difficult to navigate, wouldn't it just be a good time to dissipate their strength and sharpen their spirit. The army is tired, and it can be destroyed by overhauling. Third, it is easy to let him go, but it is not easy for him to regain the trust of his lord. When the time comes, he will not be rebellious and use it for me. ”
Zhao Yun pondered for a moment, then hugged his fists with joy and sincerity: "The military advisor has a clever plan, everything is according to the arrangement of the military advisor." ”
The two joined hands and led the team back to the camp. Back in the valley, the two had just sat down in the tent, and a junior colonel hurriedly walked into the tent and said, "General Zhao, the military advisor, the lord sent a letter, and the reinforcements will arrive in a few days." ”
Zhao Yun looked surprised, and said in a loud voice: "The lord is clever, and he really destroyed that stream of rogues." Strategist, today can be described as a double happiness. ”
Ding Yan's eyes were also full of surprise. To be honest, he was also worried that Lu Yao's plan to invite you into the urn was too extreme. In case that the rogue did not win, the one hundred and fifty archers in Xanadu Village would not be able to resist the surging army of rogues. Fortunately, it has passed, the lord has solved the difficulties, and the second batch of reinforcements has been formed. I guess he must have surrendered the leader of the rogues.
"General Zilong, before we meet with the main guild, how about you and I sum up and present a big gift to the main guild?" Ding Yan was in a very good mood and looked at Zhao Yun with a smile.
"That's very good."
……
More than thirty miles away from the first-line gorge, Blood Sword was in a very bad mood.
Sending a pioneer battalion to open the way in front of the road was quite effective. The pioneer battalion was lightly armed and marched extremely fast. The rear army followed the path opened up by the pioneer battalion, which really made the march of the army much faster. But the good mood didn't last long, and the news of the annihilation of the Pioneer Battalion came.
"Useless waste, three hundred troops were swallowed whole. He should have chopped off his dog's head. "The blood sword is thundering. If it weren't for the fact that he also knew that it was not easy to train generals, he really wanted to cut people.
The generals looked at each other and did not dare to say anything. What happened to that colleague made everyone feel relatable. There is no foolproof reason for the two armies to fight. At present, the other party is obviously much more shrewd than this lord. I'm afraid that this expedition will be more than auspicious.
The blood sword was furious for a while, and then he stopped and glared at the generals fiercely: "Since that lonely boat has the courage to come and make trouble, then fulfill him." The whole army immediately pulled out, and when they caught up, they would also pile up his army. ”
