The army stopped to clean up the battlefield. Tai Shici stood in front of Wang Lei with a face of shame, bowed and said, "My lord, the last general has let you down again. In this battle, the last general voluntarily gave up Wuji County. Huan Bing catches up, loses troops and loses generals, please punish me, my lord."

Wang Lei didn't criticize harshly and asked, "Tell me about the battle situation in Wuji County!"

"Yes!"

Tai Shici nodded, and carefully explained the situation in Wuji County.Mentioning the soldiers who died in battle in Wuji County, Tai Shici felt another burst of heartache.These soldiers were trained by him and all died on the battlefield.

Wang Lei rubbed his cheeks, and said helplessly: "Under such circumstances, it is a blessing to be able to escape. It is too difficult for Wuji County's troops to stop Gongsun Zan's army! You can't blame you. Fortunately, you used tricks to escape, otherwise Even you have to be planted in it." Seeing Tai Shici's expression was weak, Wang Lei said again: "It doesn't matter if you lose this time, the important thing is, have you lost here?"

Wang Lei clenched his fist and slapped his chest.

Tai Shici raised his head and said with high fighting spirit: "My lord, the general will not admit defeat! Nor will he. As long as there is still breath left, he will definitely fight to the end."

Wang Lei smiled, nodded and said: "If you are not defeated, then you have not failed. What is failure? It is enough to have the courage to fight again. Summarize the experience and lessons, reflect on it, and prepare to fight again."

"Yes!"

Tai Shici nodded, and Wang Lei turned to look at the soldiers under his command.

No scolding, no punishment, only encouragement!

Tai Shici was moved and ashamed for a while, and more of it was the determination to stand up and live up to Wang Lei's hope.

The army stopped to rest, and Wang Lei summoned Dian Wei, Guo Jia, Tai Shici, Yu Du, Sui Gu, and Tian Feng and others who came with Wang Lei.Wang Lei glanced at the people present, and said, "According to the previous arrangement, Ziyi and Mr. Yuan Hao lead troops to block Gongsun Zan's progress, while I lead the Tiger Battalion, Feihu Battalion and some soldiers to encircle and suppress the Wuhuan soldiers."

Tai Shici frowned and said, "Once the army divides up, I'm afraid it will not be conducive to counterattack!"

For Gongsun Zan, Tai Shici was anxious to defeat him.

Shame before the snow!

Taishi Ci was defeated by Gongsun Zan, so he wanted to get it back.

Wang Lei shook his head and said: "I also want to defeat Gongsun Zan first, and then deal with Wuhuan. But you also know the disaster of Wuhuan. Where Wuhuan soldiers passed, people were slaughtered, villages were burned, and thousands of miles of scorched earth can't be ignored. Compared to Wuhuan, Gongsun Zan did not dare to massacre in Jizhou, but Wuhuan is different, I must attack Wuhuan first, and then deal with Gongsun Zan."

Wang Lei continued: "Mr. Ziyi and Mr. Yuan Hao led the army to stop Gongsun Zan. There is no need to rush to fight back. Since we have withdrawn from the Zhongshan Kingdom, we should temporarily give the Zhongshan Kingdom to Gongsun Zan. I will get it back someday."

Tian Feng clasped his fists and said, "The lord is benevolent for the people, Feng admires him!"

Wang Lei would rather abandon the Zhongshan Kingdom than the lives of the people, and Tian Feng appreciated it from the bottom of his heart.

Tai Shici took a deep breath, and said: "The general obeys orders!"

Wang Lei smiled slightly and said: "Don't be so sullen, Gongsun Zan took Zhongshan Kingdom, but it was only temporary. We lost the land and people, and people lost the land. We lost Zhongshan Kingdom, just lost this territory, but the people are still there. , the main army is still there. If you don’t care about the safety of the people in order to fight for the Zhongshan Kingdom, then you will lose your land and lose people. Without the support of the people, what great cause is there?”

Tian Feng even agreed with these words, and echoed: "If you save people, you will lose land, and if you save land, you will lose people. My lord summed it up brilliantly! These words made Tian Feng feel enlightened, my lord is a great talent."

Wang Lei waved his hands and said, "Now that you understand the next arrangement, let's divide up the troops. I will lead the Feihu Battalion, the Fierce Tiger Battalion and [-] soldiers to encircle and suppress the Xiongnu. Ziyi and Mr. Yuan Hao will lead the remaining [-] elites to stop Gongsun Zan Keep going south."

"Yes!"

Tai Shici and Tian Feng responded, both of them were dark and dignified.

It's not easy to stop Gongsun Zan.

Guo Jia suggested: "Mr. Yuanhao, General Taishi, we are in Yangshi County. There are many rivers in Yangshi County. Among them is the Beili River, which is the largest river. The source of this river is called The middle part of the Dasha River is called the Nanli River because it goes all the way south, and then it goes north to Yangshi County where it meets the Fuyang River and the Beisha River. It is called the Beili River. General Taishi can take the army to go further south We set up camp across the Beili River, and use the river to stop Gongsun Zan from marching. It is winter now, and the frozen ice is promising and can be used as a defensive weapon."

Tai Shici clasped his fists and said: "Thank you, Military Advisor, Tai Shici understands."

Tian Feng cupped his hands and bowed, and rested on the spot.

An hour later, Tai Shici and Tian Feng led their troops south to Beili River, while Wang Lei also led his soldiers to pursue the Wuhuan soldiers.It is not easy to chase Wuhuan soldiers. Wuhuan soldiers come and go like the wind, and they are very fast.Wang Lei spotted the Wuhuan soldiers several times, led his troops to pursue quickly, and finally let Ta Dun escape, but failed to achieve results.

Encountering such a situation, Wang Lei immediately adjusted his pursuit strategy.

The army stopped, and there was no blind pursuit.

Barracks, the big tent of the Chinese army.

Wang Lei and Guo Jiabin took their seats. Wang Lei said helplessly, "Feng Xiao, the leader of the Wuhuan army is not easy. If it were an ordinary leader of Wuhuan soldiers, once we kill them, the other party will definitely come. However, this time The head coach of the Wuhuan Bing didn't play tricks at all, he retreated as soon as he came across us, he was not so timid as he was cunning, and he didn't intend to confront us head-on."

Guo Jia looked dignified, and said: "My lord is right, the Flying Tiger Battalion has not enough people, and the infantry is slow, making it difficult to catch up. It seems that we need to adjust our strategy. We can't chase us, let them chase us."

Wang Lei looked happy and said, "What is Feng Xiao's plan?"

Guo Jia said: "The only things that can attract Wuhuan soldiers are food, money and women. Therefore, if we want to mobilize Wuhuan soldiers, we must start with these three things." At this point, Guo Jia smiled and said: "We'll do this.... At that time, with the nature of the Wuhuan people, even if their commander is calm, the people below may not be obedient, so they can take the opportunity to take down the Wuhuan soldiers."

Wang Lei nodded and agreed with Guo Jia's suggestion.

……

Zhongshan Country, Wuji County.

After Gongsun Zan took Wuji County, he issued a decree to appease the people.Because Tai Shici led the army to withdraw from Zhongshan, the strength of the remaining counties was too weak to stop Gongsun Zan's offensive, and the counties soon fell into Gongsun Zan's hands.

In just a few days, Gongsun Zan had already taken control of Zhongshan Kingdom.

The news of the battle between Wuhuan soldiers and Wang Lei came back, and Gongsun Zan looked cold and serious, ready to fight Wang Lei.But soon there was news that Tai Shici and Tian Feng retreated to the Beili River.As for Wang Lei, he ignored Gongsun Zan and went all out to deal with the Wuhuan soldiers.Knowing this situation, Gongsun Zan laughed in his heart, and continued to strengthen his control over the Zhongshan Kingdom.

Chief Shi Guan Jing came to report the news, and he was relieved to learn that Wang Lei was attacking the Wuhuan soldiers with all his strength. It was Wang Lei who had a bad reputation, which made Guan Jing feel uneasy.

Guan Jing said: "My lord, Wang Lei is always a threat. If we don't get rid of Wang Lei, we will not be safe. Now Wang Lei is going all out to attack the Wuhuan soldiers, and he is not paying attention to us. I suggest that you quietly send an army Going out, as the saying goes, the mantis catches the cicada, the oriole is behind, Wang Lei is the mantis, and we are the oriole."

Gongsun Zan said, "What detailed plan do you have?"

Encouraged by Guan Jing, he said excitedly, "Send Baima Yicong to fight, and hide the army after they go out. When Wang Lei and Wuhuan soldiers are both defeated, Baima Yicong will attack immediately and take down Wang Lei."

"Second!"

Gongsun Zan laughed and sent someone to find Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun got the order, and when he heard that Wang Lei was going to attack the Wuhuan soldiers when they were fighting, he felt reluctant.Baima Yicong was the one who attacked the Wuhuan soldiers, but now he joined forces with the Wuhuan soldiers to attack Wang Lei in a disguised form, which made Zhao Yun very awkward.

However, this was Gongsun Zan's order, and he had no choice but to agree.
