Driving Li Shu to feed the enemy, this move is very cold-blooded and shameless, but it is not uncommon in the history of war. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Although this is a bit careless, it is undeniable that it can effectively consume the opponent's resources and break the enemy's morale.

Compared to driving the innocent Li Shu to attack the city, this is already relatively merciful.

However, this was originally King Zheng's territory, and King Zheng must still have plans to kill him back, so it is not wrong to choose this choice - you can't offend Li Shu to death.

In fact, Li Yongsheng was a little strange at the beginning, King Zheng's army was plundering, wasn't he worried at all about forcing the Xishan people into the camp of Lei Valley?

You know, the Xishan people are known for their bravery and aggressiveness, and most of the people in Yuzhou believe that although Tonghe is known as the sworn enemy of the Xishan people, it is really a little worse than the Xishan people.

Xishan's boy and old woman dare to kill people with knives if they don't agree with each other.

King Zheng's army has forced the Xishan people to this step, so next, when the number of soldiers is relatively small, they should not go out casually, once the Xishan people get the opportunity, their fate will be very miserable.

Li Yongsheng thought about it and felt that there was only one possibility that could explain this phenomenon: the army of the Xishan battalion was about to run away.

Otherwise, although Li Shu of Xishan could go to the people of Lei Valley to ask for food, he could also ask for food around the camp.

What the...... You can not give it, but seeing the starvation everywhere outside, the sergeants of the Xishan camp will not feel comfortable in their hearts, and their morale will also be hit.

Even if Thunder Valley sent troops to surround it, these people, driven by hunger, might even act as the vanguard of the attack.

After all, it was King Zheng's army that robbed the Xishan people of their food, not the Lei Gu people who came from afar.

The Xishan camp is not afraid of the locals coming to surround it, which means that they are ready to run away.

Thinking of this, Li Yongsheng no longer hesitated, and immediately started to rectify the people, and at the same time sent someone to inform Xia Zhenren.

Although Xia Zhenren made a lot of small moves, he himself had no personal prejudices about Li Yongsheng, so he quickly rushed over when he heard the news, and asked without seeing anything, "What's going on with you here, it's a mess...... Are you preparing to pull out the camp?"

"That's right, pull out the camp," Li Yongsheng nodded, "How many people are you going to take away, go to Guan as soon as possible, I don't have time to wait for you." ”

"What's the hurry, your corner is not easy to dig," Xia Zhenren said with a disapproving smile, but soon, he was stunned, "Are you going to rescue those Xishan people and help them avoid being robbed?"

"It may not be able to save much," Li Yongsheng said lightly, "I mean, to block the fleeing army of King Zheng......"

He recounted his analysis, "...... Snatching food in such a frenzy, they must have prepared to leave. ”

Xia Zhenren groaned and nodded slowly, "I think your judgment is very reasonable, but ...... Wouldn't it be good for them to leave?"

As an officer of the imperial court, his first thought was to regain the lost territory, and it was not particularly important whether the opponent retreated voluntarily or was defeated by him - well, if the opponent was defeated by him, he would gain a relatively high reputation.

Of course, it would be even better if it could kill the opponent effectively.

"It's not good at all," Li Yongsheng shook his head, and then asked rhetorically, "The grain has been taken away, how do you face the Li Shu of the entire Xishan?"

"This is also a problem," Xia Zhenren's utilitarianism is relatively heavy, but this does not mean that he will not care about Li Shu's life or death, ruling a county that lacks food, and there are too many troubles, "Then let's ...... it now." Sortie?"

"Attack," Li Yongsheng nodded, "I'm planning to go straight to the Xishan camp, what do you think?"

"I don't think there are necessarily many people in the Xishan camp," Xia Zhenren thought seriously for a while, and then replied, "They should all be outside to grab food at the moment...... No wonder I was ambushed by a team of 10,000 people,"

Li Yongsheng spoke without hesitation, "No matter how many people grab grain, as long as the Xishan camp is still there, the stolen grain will definitely be put there...... Can't let them go. ”

Xia Zhenren expressed his position without hesitation, "You are reasonable, I am willing to cooperate." ”

The two tacitly put aside the previous controversy, at this time, it really can't be delayed, and if the Xishan camp really collects a lot of food, the little thing that the two argued about before is not worth mentioning.

Not to mention, for Xia Zhenren, as long as he can recover Xishan, it will be a great achievement, and he doesn't even need to recruit the rebels.

In the evening, the two teams were ready for everything, the two looked at each other, and waved their hands in unison, "Let's go, go to the Xishan camp." ”

It must be pointed out that the team led by the two people, plus the rout from Xiaoyang, the total number of people is close to 60,000, and it is impossible for such a huge number of people to advance quickly.

If you think about it, if you are separated by two meters, there are only 250 people in one mile, and even if it is a five-way column, there are only more than 1,000 people in one mile, and 60,000 people can delay at least fifty miles.

Of course, this is just an algorithm, there are carriages transporting grain, and cavalry, it is impossible to be two meters alone, if the army marches together, it is impossible to be a five-way column, and it is possible to discharge a fan with a width of ten miles.

In short, the troops were dispatched before dark, and after one night, the army had traveled seventy miles, which was already quite rare, especially on the road, and encountered some small contact battles.

Although the battles are not large, every encounter has to be fought as a big battle.

Otherwise, if the preparation is not sufficient, if you really have to encounter a superior enemy army, Xia Zhenren's army is better to say, the 40,000 rabble of Lei Valley will definitely scatter and flee.

When it came to dawn, there were still fifty miles away from the Xishan camp, and the army rested on the spot for a short time, Xia Zhenren came to Li Yongsheng, "How can we fight, are you in front, or am I in front?"

Li Yongsheng frowned, "I feel that the situation is a little wrong, and I didn't encounter too many obstacles along the way...... Could it be that these people have all shrunk back?"

In fact, he didn't believe his guess, Xishan's army was collecting food everywhere, and his own reaction speed was not slow, how could the 60,000 army withdraw overnight?

It just so happened that Xia Zhenren also knew him, "I'll rush first, your people are aroused, it's a bit messy." ”

No matter how strong Li Yongsheng was, he couldn't deny this, so the two sides continued to move forward after a short rest.

After the two armies set up a large camp and then fought, twenty to thirty miles was a more suitable distance, and in case the enemy made any abnormal moves, their own side had enough space to react.

However, considering that there were still many troops of King Zheng who might not have returned from grocery supply, in order to prevent those people from easily escaping into the camp, the two teams advanced to a position about fifteen miles away from each other before starting to set up camp.

In the process of camping, it was definitely necessary to release a vigilance, but the soldiers of King Zheng's camp did not want them to camp easily, so they sent a horse team of 2,000 people to try to harass them around.

However, the imperial court army led by Xia Zhenren was not comparable to the stragglers led by Li Yongsheng, and he directly sent several teams to set up a rejection horse and shield array, and crossbowmen were prepared to guard against the impact of the other party.

Of course, there are also teams of cavalry, maneuvering on one side.

Unfortunately, however, their encampment was disturbed, and in the middle of the camp, scouts set off warning fireworks - a large number of enemies were approaching.

Immediately afterwards, I saw that the smoke and dust were rising not far away, and there were tens of thousands of cavalry, rushing over from the other side of the camp and directly taking the side of Xia Zhenren who was camping.

Xia Zhenren was shocked when he saw this, ", isn't it King Zheng's main force who killed him?"

Tens of thousands of cavalry, even if they are on the border between Middle-earth and Rouran, can be regarded as a great military force.

If King Zheng poured out all his troops and horses, it would not be difficult to make up 10,000 cavalry, but even then, the combat effectiveness was uneven.

But soon, Xia Zhenren found out that he was a false alarm, "It turns out that most of them are mounted infantry." ”

There is a big difference between mounted infantry and cavalry, riding skills, impact and horse breeds are different, the main thing is that they can quickly approach the enemy, and maintain considerable physical strength, and then dismount and fight on foot after close quarters.

Immediately afterwards, the large battalion on the opposite side also opened the camp gate, and hundreds of chariots drove out, followed by the flying boats transporting troops.

Li Yongsheng and Xia Zhenren did not camp together, they were almost ten miles away from each other, and they relied on each other's horns, and Li Yongsheng's side also divided the camp into two parts, so it was a triangular camp.

What made Xia Zhenren angry was that the enemy troops on both sides came straight to his camp, ", labor and management are regular troops, you see that we are easy to bully if we have few people?"

A guard next to him reminded him, "Lord Xia, the other party may be ...... I don't want to provoke Thunder Valley. ”

Of course, Xia Zhenren considered this possibility, and when he heard this, he spoke stupidly, ", I thought they had how bold they were, it turned out that they also knew how to eat persimmons and pick up soft picks, but they actually dared to leave the barracks...... Is it true that labor and management are soft persimmons?"

He immediately began to arrange defenses, to be honest, the imperial army was still relatively confident in fighting King Zheng's army, and if he fought in the field, he was full of confidence in one fight and two.

However, the aggressiveness shown by the other party also made him have to pay attention to it, and it is a horse infantry, a chariot and a flying boat, and there are cavalry next to the barracks, and the equipment and types of troops are all rare and sophisticated.

King Zheng's Mansion is so well prepared, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a big battle.

Therefore, although Xia Zhenren was not scared of the other party, he still used the sound conch to contact Li Yongsheng, "Can you send a little soldiers to support? ”

"Lei Gu is not interested in supporting the imperial court," Li Yongsheng replied coldly.

But the next moment, he chuckled again, "But if you support Xia Zhenren, it's still no problem......"

(It's another three watch, shouting for a monthly pass.) ）
