Chapter 69: Longhua's plan breaks Gru, and the town army's three arrows determine Chechnya

It is said that Zhao Jin reunited with a group of old friends, mixed with sadness and joy, talking at night, and inexhaustible words.

The next day, he received a pigeon letter from Wuda, the governor of Zhennan and the right general, and Zhao Yu immediately embarked on a journey. Qi Yuzhen, Xi Peacock, Long You and others asked for the expedition. Zhao Yu was not allowed to go to Anhan Prefecture to have a good rest because they were tired from far away.

Uda said in his letter that the war in Azerbaijan has been quite tight. Zhao Yu hesitated a little. I want to send some reinforcements to Azerbaijan, but there are not many 9,000 people on hand. If there are no soldiers to send, send two fierce generals. So Zhao Yu asked, "Who would like to be the vanguard and go to Azerbaijan?"

Sure enough, He Pan and Gan Basu heard the word "pioneer" and immediately rushed out and said with one voice, "The last general is willing to be a pioneer!"

Zhao Jin pushed the boat and said, "Very good! You two, led two hundred tigers, rushed to the Iron Gate first, and closed the soldiers to support Azerbaijan. If the enemy retreats, you two can chase and kill hard, and make sure that the enemy cannot retreat easily, which is a great credit!"

The two took the order, rubbing their hands, and didn't care about the number of soldiers. Their motivation moved her deeply when she saw Concubine Mu pulling Mu Yi behind Zhao Jin.

Zhao Yu asked Chao Muila to go with the second general and gave her an interpreter, telling him, "He Pan and Gan Basu are the most fierce generals under me, but they are not very united. I want them to go on a regular expedition together and make some life-and-death friendship. Do you understand what I mean? If they quarrel, you have to persuade them to fight. Chao Muila took the order: "I understand."

Zhao Jin took the beautiful concubine Ai Qian Li Ke and attracted nearly 9,000 soldiers and horses from Kuangzhou to the west through the territory of the Duchy of Rostov, and attacked the Kingdom of Georgia from north to south.

Between the mountains of the Caucasus, many peaks have been covered with ice and snow for many years. The Han army was lightly armored and thickly dressed, and unconsciously marched along the narrow plains on the east coast of the Black Sea. General Li Guijiu, a general of Longxiang, is stationed on the borders of Jiezhou and Kuangzhou. He has already collected topographic maps of the Caucasus countries, learned a lot of geographical data, and hired businessmen who often travel to Georgia as guides in advance. Therefore, after the Han army entered Georgia, they did not encounter any problems and went all the way!

"It's dangerous! Such a road!" Zhao Jin commanded the Han army to capture Suhumi, a major coastal town in northern Georgia. He couldn't help sighing: "There are only such plains along the coast, and some are critical points and even the sea is directly connected to the rugged mountains. If the enemy is ready, how can we attack so easily?

Xiao Ruoyi nodded: "If you guard me with a thousand soldiers and horses, 100,000 people will attack, and there is no fear."

"That's it." Zhao Jin said, "If it weren't for Rostov, I really don't want to retreat as soon as I fight down."

Xiao Ruoyi smiled and said, "After this battle, why didn't the lord send this place to Rostov?"

Zhao Jin is a smart person, and he is very clear at all. He is overjoyed, "A Ruo, you have a good plan! In this way, the northern part of Georgia is controlled and tied with his hands and feet, and it is difficult to fight Azerbaijan. Rostov thinks it is cheap, but in fact, they must divide their troops to defend here and contain Georgia on our behalf; if we want to take Rostov, their domestic strength can be a little less... Ah ha, A Ruo, It's wonderful to kill many birds with one stone.

So Zhao Jin sent an envoy to Grand Duke Constantine of Rostov and told him that the Han army had taken Suhumi and wanted to give him the city as a reward for his way. And other areas captured by the Han army can be taken if he wants. The Han army only wanted to teach the Georgians who dared to bully the in-laws of the Han Dynasty and did not want land. Grand Duke Constantine was overjoyed and felt that it was cheap. Sure enough, he sent troops to follow the Han army and take over the Suhumi area.

As soon as Zhao Jin sent a messenger, he waved the Han army to continue to march into the mountains to the east. At this time, King Dimitel of Georgia knew that there was a fire in the backyard and was very shocked. He didn't care about hitting Azerbaijan again and hurried back to the division. He rushed back to the capital Tbilisi.

Dimitel's troops are all retreating from Georgia and Armenia, which are attacking Azerbaijan. Yanhan and the Azerbaijani allied forces pursued separately, which made the enemy lose their armor and capture many prisoners who escaped. As for the Chechen and Inguish tribes, they do not know that Georgia and Armenia have retreated and are still trying their best to attack northern Azerbaijan. Prince Erchim of Azerbaijan led an army to resist by terrain. Uda, the main force of the joint forces of Yanhan and Azerbaijan, first drove the Armenian army out of the country and later moved to support.

Tbilisi, the capital of Georgia, is an ancient city with a long history in the Caucasus. It became the capital of ancient Georgia in the fourth century. This is a magnificent mountain city, easy to defend and difficult to attack. But in 1234, it was broken by the Mongolian army with a strong military force. At that time, the Georgian king led his people to retreat into the mountains to fight guerrillas until the Mongolian army, which was not suitable for complex terrain, retreated because of lack of supply and recovered Tbilisi. After that, the king of Georgia paid tribute to the Mongols and actually maintained his independent status.

Where the Mongols could not occupy for a long time, the Han army was even more meaningless to occupy. Long Xiang General Li Gui suggested to Zhao Jin that he could burn towns and slaughter residents all the way to weaken Georgia's national strength. Zhao Jin sighed, "I know that slaughter is a very useful method, but... I can't do it." So he condoned the Georgian people to escape. Li Gui and some soldiers don't understand this. Why can the Mongolian army carry out massacres everywhere, and our army can't carry out massacres? However, the king's authority is unquestionable and must be obeyed.

Zhao Yu just led the army into the army. On this day, I saw a valley, with a narrow passage on the north bank and a steep cliff on the south bank. The guide explained to Zhao Jin, "This river is the Kula River. Go east along the river and downstream to reach Tbilisi."

Zhao Yu meditated and said, "Enough. Let's walk here."

The Han army took a rest in the camp. A few days later, the Georgian army, led by Dimitel, came in panic. Zhao Jin and the generals climbed halfway up the mountain and overlooked the enemy. They saw that there were many people and horses on the other side, and they could see the head and the end.

"It seems that it is at least twice as much as our army." Zhao Jin put down the telescope and asked left and right, "How is it appropriate to fight?"

Xiao Yu, the general of the town army, said: "Although there are many troops, they have been tired for a long time and rushed around. Before we can rest, our army can attack it.

Li Gui said, "This is reasonable. However, there will be a plan to win a complete victory.

Zhao Yu said, "If you have a plan, come on."

Li Gui unfolded a roll of map, spread it on the rock, and reported, "When our army came, the general sent sent a sentry to explore and draw a new map here, which is more detailed." Then he pointed to the map and said, "Master, please look, there are many valleys along the road behind our army. Several valleys marked in this picture can accommodate thousands of people in ambush.

Zhao Jin looked at it and didn't quite understand. He didn't say a word for a moment.

Li Baozhao, Xiao Ruoyu's subordinate, came over to look and shook his head and said, "This is a lonely valley. How can our army ambush here? If the enemy does not chase into the valley, but instead surrounds the mouth of the valley and trap our army in the valley, what can we do?

Li Qingxi, the military general, just sneered when he heard Li Baozhao say that.

Zhao Yu said, "Qingxi, what do you want to make?"

Li Qingxi arched his hand and said, "I have no opinion. The last general knows a little about General Longhua's plan. This is a wonderful plan." It turned out that Li Qingxi had understood Li Gui's plan, and the sneer mocked Li Baozhao's ignorant scheme.

Li Gui nod to Li Qingxi, turned to Zhao Jin, pointed to the map and continued to say, "It's better to use the general of the town army first to kill the enemy for a while and frustrate his spirit. The lord raised his troops and retreated calmly. When he retreated to the valley and fork, the lord retreated along the road. Finally, the general and the general led a man and a horse each and went into the valley to ambush.

Speaking of this, Zhao Jin understood and stroked his palm and said, "So it is. Do you mean that while the enemy chased me, you and Qingxi ambush and let the main force of the enemy and copy the enemy's back road?

Li Gui nodded: "Exactly." Put away the map, resume the solemnity, and listen to Zhao Jin's decision.

Zhao Yu has gone through many battles, and his calm literacy has been further developed. At this time, he was not in a hurry to make his own decision, but asked others carefully: "What do you think?"

Xiao Ruoyi swung his body and said, "This is a wonderful plan. The Lord can follow the plan.

The guerrilla general said generously, "Master, although this plan is good, there is something to worry about."

"Oh?" Zhao Jin looked solemn: "What's there to worry about? Please speak."

The generously said, "Does the lord know who the queen of Georgia is?"

"It's Princess Eli's Blue." Zhao Jin answered patiently. It is well known that King Dimitri of Georgia is the son-in-law of the Illi Khanate.

Kuo Kuang Gan nodded: "Princess Du Lan, she is very wise, and we have all heard her virtuous name. At a young age, she made suggestions for Ababa Khan and defeated the Turks on the Asia Minor Plateau. Her father, Tekodi Khan, also won the hearts of many people thanks to her. Hearing that Tekdi Khan was defeated last time, he deplored: 'It's a pity that my daughter is not around!'

Since Kuo Gan learned to speak Chinese after returning to Zhao Jin, there are many elements of "public speaking" in her words, and there are fewer "those who care about it". Zhao Jin listened to her and couldn't help meditating for a while: "You reminded me. It depends on the object. It is easy to succeed if you use tricks on a rough person, but if the enemy also has a very strategic figure and can see through our army's plan, it will be troublesome.

"Lord, don't worry." Li Guili lined up the broad and sweet discussion and patted his chest to assure Zhao Yu, "The last general also heard the name of Du Lan. However, the couple were not at peace, and Dimittal was very arrogant and never listened to Du Lan's words. Du Lan is not afraid even in his army.

Li Qingxi also said, "The last general is willing to ambush with General Long Xiang, adapt to changes, and make contributions."

"Hmm." Seeing their struggle, Zhao Jin finally decided, "If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you get the tiger son!" I adopted this strategy."

Therefore, Zhao Yu ordered Xiao Qian to lead 1,000 troops and kill the enemy for a while; Li Gui and Li Qingxi each led 2,000 horses and ambushed them separately in the valley behind.

Xiao Lu got the order and led a thousand horse shooters to kill him. The Georgian army's previous invasion of Azerbaijan was exhausted, and it was even more tired to retreat back in a hurry. Although they are many people, they can't do it in the narrow terrain. He was so rushed by the Han army and was quickly defeated. Xiao Li's troops rushed to kill for several miles until the bow and arrow were used up, and then turned around and ran.

Seeing his former army's fiasco, Dimitel was furious, reorganized his formation, and pushed forward with an archer to fight against the Han army again. The Han army only retreated. Dimitel led the army to chase through the valley ambushed by Li Gui and Li Qingxi. Li Gui and Li Qingxi saw that the main force of the enemy had passed, so they came out of the valley and rushed straight to the back!

The Georgian army left behind are exhausted old and weak. How can there be resistance to the Han army? Li Gui and Li Qingxi are invincible, **.

Du Lan Zao heard that Yan Han had a general who was used to fighting. He was worried about Dimittle and wanted to follow him. But Dimittle refused, thinking that he would be laughed at for listening to women's opinions. Du Lan stayed in Tbilisi and was really worried, so he took a team to follow. Unexpectedly, before receiving the report of defeat in front of us, I saw the Han army rushing forward!

The Han army rushed all the way, and the dispersed Georgian army fled to the mountains. Who would go back to report the news? Even if you want to go back, people are tired and can't run at all.

When Dulan saw the Han army, he was shocked and caught off guard. Li Gui danced with a three-pointed and two-edged knife, and rushed into Dulan's entourage and killed him. Li Qingxi waved his teacher and quickly rolled the little man in the middle. At the beginning, the second general did not know that this was the man of Princess Ellie, and he was still fighting. Du Lan is weak and can't fight. At this time, he is mixed with the chaotic army. He can't fight, can't run, and his intelligence has nowhere to be used. A group of cavalry of the Han army found that they were luxuriously dressed in blue, so they killed them and captured them.

Li Gui and Li Qingxi rushed to kill more than 30 miles, killing the Georgian army to the rear camp and occupying it. The second general stationed the soldiers and horses and learned that his men had captured Du Lan. He was overjoyed and ordered him to take care of him. There is a lot of food and fodder in the battalion. The Han army supplies on the spot, strengthens the defense of the camp, and cut off the roads. What other solutions does the enemy have?
