Chapter 43, trick to lure the enemy
The next day, a team of people from Zuzhao's camp came out and came to the gate to continue the fight. Someone reported Zhao Meng in the city. At this time, Han Ye took the initiative to fight again. Zhao Meng agreed. Han Ye, with a pair of more than 500 cavalrymen, rushed out of the city gate.
Seeing that the leader was still Zhao Qi, Han Ye said disdainfully, "Hundreds of battles, you were lucky not to die yesterday. Why do you dare to fight again today? Why don't you secretly laugh and live secretly? Why do you have to come and die?
Zhao Qi stood up and said, "In yesterday's battle, there was a small mistake. You said that I really can't beat you. Today, I will fight hard and I will definitely defeat you. Be careful of your head first. Don't blame me for being ruthless under the gun."
Han Ye said, "The defeated generals also dare to be brave. You retreat quickly and let the person who used the axe yesterday fight. You don't measure yourself, but I disdain to kill you, so as not to stain the double ax in my hand.
Zhao Qi heard this, and there was an anger on his face. He shot the horse, killed him and shouted, "I'll take your head. Let's see how you slander me at that time."
Han Ye saw Zhao Qi rushing up, with a strange and disdainful smile on his face, waved a hammer and greeted him. The two shouted and were still carrying the part of the battle for more than 100 rounds. They returned to the battle again and changed their horses and continued to fight. For nearly 100 rounds, Zhao Qi saw a flaw in Han Ye and stabbed him with one shot. Han Ye hurriedly resisted and hit Zhao Qi with a hammer. Zhao Qi was shocked and rode back.
Han Dang saw Zhao Qi retreat and chased after him. Suddenly, Zhao Qi stabbed back with a horse gun. Han was stunned and avoided it with all his strength, but there was still a wound on his arm and blood flowed. He was furious and commanded the army to pursue.
The cavalry horse forward and went straight to Zhao Qi's troops. Zhao Qi's army abandoned its armor and was defeated. Han Ye's army chased directly to the gate of Zu Zhao's army and was shot back by random arrows. On the way back, the troops were very happy to pick up the weapons and armor lost by Zhao Qi's troops.
Han Ye returned laughing and met Zhao Meng. When Zhao Meng saw Han Ye's bravery and took some weapons and armor back, he was also happy. He remed Han Ye well and announced his bravery to the three armies, hoping that everyone would follow Han as an example and kill the enemy bravely.
On the third day, there was a fight outside the city gate. Han Ye was still fighting in the city, and the person he saw was still Zhao Qi. After Han Ye laughed, the two fought again. After fighting Bai Yu round, Zhao Qi was defeated again. Han Ye decisively ordered people to pursue him. Just like yesterday, the army won again, and he found that Zu Zhao's military camp actually pulled back more than a miles. It's not where it was stationed yesterday.
Han Ye returned from victory and reported what he had seen to Zhao Meng. He said, "Maybe the enemy saw me brave and was afraid that I would lead the army to directly kill their base camp, so after that, pull out the village and avoid us!"
Zhao Meng also has doubts in his heart that Zu Zhao is here to fight against himself and should bring elite generals. Why has he only been sending Zhao Qi out to fight? Is it possible that he intends to be so unknown? What kind of scheme this is? After careful consideration, he felt that Zu Zhaoju deliberately tested him to see how many generals in his army could fight.
Zhao Meng smiled coldly and said to himself, "I'm not fooled by you. If you want to see what good generals are in our army, I just send Han Ye to fight every day. You don't rule out your generals, and I won't send new people to fight to see who is more powerful."
Zhao Meng gave an order to Han Ye that if the enemy sent Zhao Qi again the next day, they would try their best to kill him. Zhao Meng took the order and said that if this person was really Zhao Qi, he would definitely take his head. On the fourth day, there were people fighting outside the city. Han Ye still fought in the city, and there was no surprise. In Zu Zhao's camp, Zhao still fought with Zhao Qi. Han Ye did not say anything, but directly shook his spirit and took Zhao Qi, but his momentum was much stronger than before.
Zhao Qi fought for less than 50 rounds and was defeated. Han Ye chased and killed behind, got a lot of things, and returned with a big victory. When chasing to the camp of Zu Zhao's army, he checked the stove pit left by Zu Zhao's army. According to the personal food of 20 people in a pit, the stove pit was less than 500, that is to say, there were less than 10,000 troops in Zu Zhao's army.
After Zhao Meng learned the news, he was very happy, but he still did not choose to take the initiative to attack. He planned to take a look again. At that time, he could get rid of Zu Zhao's army in one fell swoop. At that time, it was not a problem to take the whole Liaodong County, and then the whole Youzhou was just around the corner.
For five days in a row, Zhao Qi was in Zu Zhao's army, and Han Ye was also in the Zhao Meng army, and Zhao Qi was defeated every time. On the fifth day, Han also found that Zu Zhao's barracks was pulled out for a distance and stationed in the mountains.
On the sixth day, no one came to fight. Zhao Meng and Han ambition wondered whether Zu Zhao's army had retreated? But you can't let them retreat like this. Therefore, Zhao Meng sent 2,000 cavalry and 2,000 infantry to Han Ye to take the initiative to pursue.
Han Ye led his troops to Zu Zhao's original intention. Although the camp was there, there were still some swaying flags, but when he entered the camp, no one was seen. It turned out that Zu Zhao's army had already left. Under a wild order, he rose up and chased. He couldn't catch up three miles. He saw an army slowly in front of him and was retreating.
Han Ye shouted and led the army to rush up. The army heard an army rushing behind him and turned to meet him. The leading general was Ma Yuan. Han Ye strangled the horse, pointed a sledgehammer at Ma Yuan, and asked, "Aren't you going to fight to the death with me? Why do you retreat quietly like this? Didn't you come to fight against us? Is it because I have been defeated for five consecutive days that I have to retreat without fighting?
Ma Yuan shouted, "If it hadn't been for the northern barbarian attack in the rear, I would have taken your general Zhao Meng's head." After he finished speaking, a soldier beside him said in his ear, "General, how can you tell the enemy about this?"
Ma Yuan shouted, "Why not?" After I was cut off today, someone chased them truthfully, and I will definitely kill them and tell him what to do. After saying that, he shouted to Han Ye, "Since you are chasing me, don't want to go back today. I'll fight with you to the death."
Han Ye laughed and said, "So you are a person with only one courage and has no brain at all. No wonder Zu Zhao hasn't sent you to war. OK, I took your useless head today. With that, he waved a hammer and rushed straight over.
Ma Yuan shouted and also attacked with a whip. The two fought on the horse for less than a white round. Ma Yuan was defeated and led the army to escape. Han Ye decisively led the army to pursue, but Ma Yuan's soldiers abandoned their armor and fled for their lives in panic.
It was about to kill all, but a man was killed in front of him, blocking Han Ye's way. Zhao Qi was the leader. He commanded the troops with a random arrow and stopped Han Ye's pursuit.
"I was ordered to take over the broken troops again. Ma Yuan, your troops will retreat first, and I will fight with him." Zhao Qi said.
Ma Yuan nodded and did not say much. He led the army to flee. At the same time, Zhao Qi came to fight with a gun, but he was defeated in less than 50 rounds. He also said, "Han Ye, our army has now retreated to the worry-free county. If you have the ability, you can come and occupy the worry-free county."
Han Ye commanded the army to chase and chase for more than a li. On the way, he picked up many armor and weapons thrown away by Zu Zhao's army when they escaped. Later, because he met the main force that was retreating, Han Ye dared not continue to pursue and returned to Ping County with the booty to report Zhao Meng.
"There is an attack from the northern barbarians behind them. Now they have retreated. General, they plan to retreat to the worry-free county and then slowly withdraw their troops. Should we take the initiative to attack?" Han Ye asked.
Zhao Meng laughed wildly and said, "The lord is really expected. He has long expected that if Zu Zhao would send troops to fight against us, then his back must be attacked by the northern barbarians. At that time, they will be defeated. Well, this is a good time for us to attack. After saying that, he ordered the soldiers to have breakfast immediately. After a night' rest, the next day, he led more than 10,000 of the main force in the city to send troops.
On the way, when he passed the camp, he looked at the camp deployment above and couldn't help sighing. The deployment was very strict, and they all became horns. They took care of each other. There were real people sneak attacks. No matter from which direction, they undoubtedly entered a circle. He had to praise Sude that guy was indeed. It's good. If it weren't for the trouble of the northern barbarians, I'm afraid it wouldn't be so easy to deal with them.
The army went out of the suburbs and reached the secret forest canyon. Han Ye reported that he met the main force in retreat when he caught up here. Because of the dangerous terrain here, he could not continue to pursue. Zhao Meng nodded. This is indeed a good place for ambush. Zhao Qi was here to ambushed Zu Zhao's vanguard troops before, but who knew that they actually took the initiative to attack and led to failure.
Look at the terrain here, Zhao Meng does not dare to enter lightly. If he encounters an ambush, more than 10,000 troops may be damaged by more than half. So he sent someone to lead 500 cavalry and 500 troops to pass through here first, and the army was behind. About half a minute later, someone came back to report that the leading troops had successfully passed and there was no ambush here.
Zhao Meng was relieved and commanded the troops to pass. Unexpectedly, just halfway through the journey, I suddenly heard a drum sound, and the secret forest was full of enemy flags. In surprise, there was another chaotic sound behind it, and countless huge stones and trees rolled down, blocking their way.
A man turned out in front of him, led by Ma Yuan. He laughed and said, "General Zhao, I have been waiting here for a long time."
Zhao Meng knew that he had been fooled and was very angry. He raised a big simple knife and rushed to kill him. Ma Yuan shook his spirit and raised his axe to greet him. The two fought for two or three hundred rounds, and there was no division. At this time, Zhao Meng's rear army was in chaos. He repelled Ma Yuan with a few moves. Looking back, he saw arrows falling like rain in the two mountains. Zhao Meng's army fell one after another, and the rest could only hide under the shield, which was very embarrassed. .
Zhao Meng knew that if it went on, the whole army would be destroyed. He abandoned Ma Yuan, waved a simple knife, commanded the troops to shoot arrows and fight back. At the same time, he sent a unit to the front to open the way and get rid of those stones and wood. Several teams of people counterattacked, guarded, moved stones, and finally freed a path that could be passed by people and horses at the cost of being stained red by blood. Zhao Meng immediately commanded the army to turn back. At this moment, nearly 2,000 soldiers had been injured or killed in battle. He didn't care so much and led the people who could run to withdraw quickly.
Ma Yuan chased fiercely in the back, cut and killed hundreds of people, and continued to chase all the way. Zhao Meng's troops were fleeing, and another team of people came out in front of them. It turned out that it was Zhao Qi who ambushed here. When they passed before, Zhao Qi quietly ordered them to pass and fight when they turned back.
Zhao Meng was furious and waved a knife to take Zhao Qi. Zhao Qi was not afraid and commanded the army to attack. After less than 50 rounds, Zhao Qi retreated. Zhao Meng did not dare to fight and led the troops to escape. When he was brought back to Wangping County, less than 2,000 soldiers followed him, and most of the remaining 8,000 people surrendered or fled everywhere.
"Open the gate, I'm General Zhao Meng." Zhao Meng shouted at the city. But for a long time, he didn't see the gate open. When he wanted to call again, he saw a man at the head of the city turn out, wearing a cloth hat, and said calmly, "General Zhao, the county has been recaptured by me. If you surrender, I will open the gate to let you in."
"Who are you?" Zhao Meng asked loudly.
"The governor of Liaodong County and the rebellious general Zu Liechen this time got the military Su Shide." Su Deyou said.
