Chapter 110, Xianbei General
On the way back, Yujin scolded Zhang Yu fiercely and said that he would tell Zhang Yuan and Zu Zhao that he did not obey the military order and asked them to transfer him back as a left vanguard. Zhang Yu said that he would not care about it this time. If there is another time, he will not listen to the military order, then he must tell Zu Zhao and Zhang Yuan to transfer him back. He must be responsible for the army and his life.
When Zhang asked about the withdrawal order, Yu Yu was very unhappy that he learned from the guide that there were traps everywhere. When he came back, he learned that he had taken the soldiers to hunt and could not send people in to look for it, so he could only let people blow the horn of withdrawal, hoping that he would return to the barracks as soon as he heard it.
Zhang sighed. Fortunately, Yu Gaoming knew to urge him to go back with the withdrawal horn, otherwise he would have been burned by the fire at this moment. I am grateful for the life-saving grace of the ban, saying that I will listen to the arrangement of the ban in the future and dare not disobey at all. Yu Forbidden was also excited. Fortunately, he thought of this method in time. Otherwise, if something happened to Zhang Yu, it would be really difficult to explain to Zu Zhao and Zhang Yuan. He was greatly trusted by Zu Zhao and ordered to be the right vanguard and broken general, and Zhang Yu, who had distinguished achievements in the battle, be under his command and dispatch. This is absolute affirmation and trust. If this first battle, Zhang Pre will die. Although he does not obey military orders, he is a general who can't discipline his subordinates, and how can he be a good general?
After returning to the camp, seeing that the fire was about to burn, Yu banned ordered the soldiers to immediately make an isolation belt in front of him to keep the fire from spreading. Thousands of soldiers immediately went into battle, cutting down all the small trees that could be cut down, removing all the dead branches and leaves on the ground, and the big trees that were difficult to cut down climbed up and cut off the branches until the height that the flame could not rise.
In the end, the fire in this direction was controlled, but the fire in the other three directions was uncontrollable and kept burning wantonly. During this period, there was the sound of explosions on the ground, and the local mountains shook. In the end, the fire lasted for more than ten days in a row, and finally the east and north were blocked by a river. The west was extinguished by fewer and fewer forests and heavy rains. In the face of such an explosive and burning cave, when Yu Forbidden asked the local people why it was like this, the locals also said they didn't know. However, he had no choice but to read books for Zu Zhao, who led the army behind.
After receiving the letter, Zu Zhao thought carefully that such a large natural pit must produce natural gas, so it will burn when it encounters fire, and due to the narrow space, it will naturally explode. So Zu Zhaoxiu replied that there was a burning gas in the cave, so that they could avoid it as much as possible. This gas would explode in a small space.
Yu Forbidden received a reply from Zu Zhao. Although it was difficult to understand how the gas could burn and explode, he had seen the power of the explosion of the cave, so he also listened to Zu Zhao's words and stayed away from such a cave on the way to march, especially when he camped and cooked. The places in it need to be explored carefully to make sure that there is no such cave, and then they just went down to the village.
The incident of Zhang Pre-detonating the hole and burning the forest has long been reported this situation to the four heroes of Xianbei Pioneer. They then reported that they were very happy with Zhang Yu's recklessness. The old captain Tu Wu laughed and said, "The Han army said that we are the barbarians in the north. I think they are the real slow people. They actually detonated ghosts. They must have killed many of them, or many people have fallen into the pit and died."
The words of the spy are not very clear, but the Han army has a good control over the fire. They stopped the isolation zone and the fire did not burn their barracks, so it is not known whether they had major casualties. The old man laughed and said, "There is no need to check this. Since it has detonated the ghost, the person who detonated it must have died. It's really good for me. I think the Han army should be scared."
The spy said, "General, the Han army did not withdraw, but continued to advance a hundred miles. Now it is less than a hundred miles away from our camp. And according to our investigation, the Han army has a village every ten miles, and it seems that they dare not make further progress.
The fourth lieutenant said suddenly: "The Han army has always been cautious in marching. Naturally, they will not move forward blindly. Moreover, they are not familiar with the terrain, and the army behind them has not arrived, so they naturally dare not go deep alone. They are afraid that they are only to explore the terrain to welcome the arrival of the large troops behind them.
When the second brother heard this, he said, "Since they can't join forces, we can attack them separately. They don't have a large army and are not familiar with the terrain. Naturally, they are not our opponents. As long as I take an army, I can pull out all their camps so that the Han army dare not come again."
Wei Tuwen shook his head and said, "The Han army has always been tricky. Now they come to attack me. Naturally, they are step by step and dare not venture forward. However, if we attack rashly, I'm afraid we will be tricked by them. It's better to be careful. When everything is clear, it's not too late to send troops to attack.
Lao San said very unconvincedly, "Fourth brother, I think you have read a lot, but you are timid. How can you be so ambitious to destroy your prestige? Since you are afraid, let me take an army to kill them. Your two brothers stay behind. When I kill them, you can chase them with a large army. Is that feasible?
Listen to Lao San's words, the two brothers are also competing to make this achievement. Since the Han army did not assemble a large army, but separated the troops, it must be very easy to break through them. Who doesn't want this vanguard achievement?
The three finally quarreled, but the brothers were still quarreling. Unexpectedly, they developed to the extreme that they had to compete, and whoever won would go. However, this immediately attracted the scolding of the fourth captain. Although he is the fourth, he is the highest official, and the three brothers naturally have to listen to him.
But now the three brothers are fighting fiercely. They don't listen to Lao Si's words and ask him not to use his official position to order them. They just want to prove that they are also powerful. Lao Si was finally helpless. How could he watch his brothers compete for merit and make trouble? He said, "Three brothers, listen to me. I don't use any official position to order you, but now that the enemy soldiers are under the city, our brothers don't want to unite to fight against the enemy, but their brothers want to fight and kill first. Isn't this let the Han army know, isn't it? Let them laugh out of their teeth? Since the three brothers are going, it's up to God to see who will go. Shall we draw lots to decide? Those who win the lottery will go and the rest will stay.
After listening to Wei Tuwen's words, the three brothers agreed to nod, and finally chose the form of drawing lots to decide who would take the head. After the last draw, the second captain suddenly won the lottery, while the eldest and the third won the lottery. Although the two of them are unconvinced, they have said before that no matter what the result is, they can no longer argue.
After Wei Tuling won the lottery, he was about to go on an expedition with 10,000 horses from the headquarters. Before leaving, his fourth brother Wei Tuwen gave him two kits, saying that if he was in danger, he could open it, and there was a plan to save him. Lao San took it disdainfully and said how could he be in danger. How could he kill the Han army? How could he need Lao Si's trick? However, under the persuasion of Lao Si, he still took it with him.
Wei Tuling came straight to the Han camp with 10,000 soldiers and horses. When he arrived at the gate of the first camp, he held a mace and directly commanded the army to charge. In front of the gate of Zhengdaozhai, a team rushed out, the first general, with black beard and white face, holding a long knife, a Qingzhou person, surnamed Zhao Minghua.
"Who is coming, sign up." Zhao Hua asked sharply with a long knife.
Wei Tuling didn't say anything and rushed over directly. Zhao Hua saw it and dragged a long knife to meet the general. Wei Tuling waved a mace and smashed it down. Zhao Hua dodged and raised a long knife and cut it down. Yu Tu Ling raised a mace to block it. The two fought with each other on horseback. After separating, they fought for about 20 rounds, and Zhao Hua was defeated.
Wei Tuling won and was very happy. He laughed and said, "Is this person also qualified to station in the first village? It seems that there is no Han army. Guys, let me rush back the Han army and take them straight to Kyoto." After listening to Wei Tuling's words, the sergeants were also burning, high-spirited and wanted to do a big job.
Wei Tuling sent 500 sergeants to defend the camp and continued to attack with others. Less than five miles away, I saw a Han military camp, which was bigger than the one I met before. Wei Tuling was naturally fearless and rushed up. At the opening of the door, a team of more than 500 Han soldiers rushed out, leading the general, with round eyes and a high nose, not very beautiful, but looked very brave, holding a huge axe, weighing more than 100 catties. This person's surname is Cheng Mingheng, his ancestral home is Tai'an, and he follows Zu Zhao with Yu Ban. He came out first and asked, "Who dares to rush to my camp and don't want to live?"
Wei Tuling shouted and directly killed the general first. Cheng Huang saw it, roared, held an axe to meet the general, and the mace hit the axe and made a loud noise. His lieutenant suddenly became very strong, and Cheng Huang's strength was not small. The two fought randomly on the horse for more than 30 rounds. Cheng Heng had a flaw and was almost hit by a wolf's tooth stick by Wei Tuling. He pulled his horse back and took the soldiers away to abandon the camp and fled.
Wei Tuling smiled and said, "One village is not as good as one village. Today, I will pull out the camp they have worked hard to build and see how their army can help." After saying that, 500 people were ordered to stay, and immediately chased and killed with military horses. Cheng Heng's team abandoned their armor and fled all the way and did not dare to stay at all.
Less than five miles, I saw the flag of the Han army on a high mountain, and the X general Ma Guan among the thieves. Wei Tuling came to ask what kind of official position this was in the Han Dynasty. Some people told him that this was a small general in the Han army, belonging to a small general after level 7 or 8, similar to the centurion.
Wei Tuling smiled and said, "These young generals also dare to hang their flags. They really don't know whether they are alive or dead. However, he set up a fortress here. If we want to attack, I'm afraid that we will lose some soldiers and delay some time. I see that there is no water in the mountains and they can't hold on for long. You lead 800 soldiers to surround this place. If they dare to come down and kill them, if they don't come down, then don't attack and let them die of lack of water on it.
"It's a general." The young general was ordered to surround the hills with 800 troops and horses. Wei Tuling laughed and said that the Han army was smart and thought they had chosen a place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack. In fact, they just didn't know that they had fallen to death. He took the rest of the army and continued to move forward.
In this way, Wei Tuling rushed all the way. By sunset, he had successively captured ten villages of the Han army. Originally, 10,000 soldiers were brought, because every time he attacked the fortress, he had to be kept guarded, ranging from 200 to 800, but at this moment, there were only a little more than 5,000 troops around him. However, he brought people who were good at fighting. He was not afraid to see that the Han army was so poor all the way. At night, spies came to ask, and there were three Han military camps in front of them. Compared with the previous small villages, it seemed that the main force of the Han army was stationed.
"No matter what troops he has, they will capture their last three villages in one fell swoop, and then drive them out of our country, and then we will take a large army to attack their country. It is said how brave the Han army is, and I think it's nothing more than that. Wei Tuling said with a laugh.
The advisor said, "General, the Han army has always been full of tricks. They can easily annex Gaoguryeo, a large number of soldiers and generals. I'm afraid they will have traps waiting for us. Be careful not to underestimate the enemy."
Wei Tuling said, "It's not that I want to underestimate them, but that they really have no ability. There is no general who can fight these ten fortress defenders, and no one can take over me for 50 rounds. Not to mention one by one, even if they are together, I am not afraid at all. Don't learn from my brother. I'm afraid of this and that after reading too much all day. What else should I give me to use in an emergency? I never believe in these things. Can a kit bring heavenly soldiers and generals? It's really ridiculous. As he spoke, he took out the kit given to him by his brother Wei Tuwen, smiled very proudly, threw the kit to the counselor, and said:
"Take this thing. I don't think it's useful. When we kill the Han army, open it to see what my lovely brother is writing in it."
The counselor was shocked, hurriedly stepped aside, bowed down and said, "General, this is given to you by General Zhonglang. How can I accept it?"
Wei Tuling smiled and said, "It's the same for you to take it with me. I'm going to kill on the battlefield, and it's inevitable that I'll fall behind. It's better for you to take it with me."
The counselor listened and took the kit tremblingly and carefully stored it. Wei Tuling asked the soldiers to continue to expand the camp on the camp of the former Han army and camp here. The counselor looked here. There were mountains on all sides. There was a waterfall flowing down the mountain, which came out through a narrow canyon. In the past, the waterfall flowed down, but now it can't help but be so majestic, with only a little water flowing down.
"General, the terrain here is low. If we camp here, I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate." The counselor said.
Wei Tuling asked, "What's wrong?"
The counselor said, "I always feel that it is not a good idea to camp on this low terrain. Could it be a trap shot by the Han army that deliberately let us camp here?"
Wei Tuling looked around and said, "This is originally the camp of the Han army. Naturally, they have considered it before going down. Moreover, on the cliffs on both sides, can the Han army still fly down to besiege us? Even if we come, we can resist. What are you afraid of? Order the soldiers to camp quickly, and then send a team of people to patrol in the distance. If there is anything wrong, immediately sing gold. Even if the Han army comes, I will kill them.
The counselor himself can't say what's wrong here. If two armies of similar strength are fought here, they will lose both sides in the end. Naturally, the Han army will not choose this kind of strategy of losing both sides when they come from afar. So he could only order the soldiers to camp here and order a group of soldiers to divide into four teams and patrol in the distance. For safety reasons, he also sent a group of 500 troops to ambush on the intersection that the Han army must pass.
The news of Wei Tuling's camp under the waterfall had long been reported to Yu Forbidden and Zhang Yu. After receiving the news, they were overjoyed and sighed that Xianbei Pioneer was bound to die this time. Zhang Yu said, "Wen Ze is really talented. As long as the embankment is dug and the flood exit below is blocked, then the lieutenant will definitely die. It's really resourceful to destroy more than 10,000 of their troops so easily. I admire them so much.
Yu Forbidden said, "Don't say anything about admiration. Everyone is for the Lord. But we can't kill Wei Tuling like this.
"Why?" Zhang asked puzzledly.
Yu Forbidden said, "Before, the lord explained that we wanted to conquer these small troubled countries in the north, but we could not slaughter them at will. In the end, it still had to be governed by their people, but the regime was dependent on us."
Zhang Yu said, "If they can't die, how can they be obedient? As long as we leave, they will definitely rebel. Then won't we sacrifice the lives of soldiers in vain on this expedition?"
Yu Forbidden said: "The most important thing to conquer the enemy is to conquer their hearts. If they are not convinced, if you kill one, there will be a second one. Can you kill hundreds of thousands of people in their country? Therefore, we must make them afraid from the bottom of their hearts, make their rulers obey us in their hearts, and dare not make a difference in the rear. This is the ultimate goal of the lord.
Zhang thought for a moment and felt that there was some truth, but he still didn't agree much and asked, "What if this lieutenant suddenly kills and doesn't surrender?"
"That can only be captured alive and then used to threaten his three brothers. If we kill him, I'm afraid it will arouse other people's feelings of resistance and disadvantageous to us. If we can use him, this is the best. Yu Ban said.
In the end, Zhang Yu could only agree, but after a big water, the humble sergeant must have killed and injured countless times. As for whether the Wei Tuling will be washed to death by the big water, it depends on his creation. This can't be controlled, but if he catch Wei Tuling, he can't kill him. If he was directly washed to death by the water, he could only say that he deserved it.
