Three Kingdoms: I will act as a substitute for the Hunjun

Chapter 146 Then I’m not in a hurry

Huang Long struggled hard and stepped on other soldiers to get his upper body out of the pit. He saw that the outside was already a mess.

The lamps and torches shone like daylight, and he could see clearly that the Montenegrin Army had been surrounded by government troops. Without his command, the Montenegrin Army was like a flock of sheep being besieged by wolves, with no power to resist. .

The officers and soldiers were obviously well prepared, cooperating with each other, advancing step by step, and the Black Mountain Army continued to fall to the ground and died under the attack of spears and hooks and sickles. There were archers behind them firing arrows into the crowd.

It was simply a one-sided massacre. In just a few short breaths, there was a pool of blood on the ground, and the corpse was lying on the ground. The scene was too horrific to look at.

Huang Long was about to try his best to climb out of the pit when he suddenly heard a strange noise behind him. Looking back, he saw the tent of the Chinese army's tent sliding down, revealing the neatly arranged archers inside.

"No!" Huang Long was so frightened that he lost his mind. Before he could make any response, countless arrows flew toward him like locusts.

puff!

An arrow hit him in the chest, and then—poof! puff! puff! puff……

Almost instantly, Huang Long's upper body was covered with arrows, like a large hedgehog.

"My life is over!" Huang Long felt that he was unwilling to die like this after having been in the world for so many years. He wanted to shout a few words, but he didn't know what to shout. In the end, he could only roar according to his heart, "Really It hurts so much!”

The body fell into the pit and died.

Liu Ming stood in the big tent and shook his head. These archers were not professionals after all. Their main occupation was infantry. They were far behind the archers of Shesheng Camp. If Shesheng Camp was here, all kinds of bows would be available. When crossbows are used together, the killing power can be at least doubled.

However, with the advantage of the right time and place, it was enough to ambush the Black Bandits.

"Kill! Enjoyable! Hahahaha..." Zhang Fei burst out laughing, wielding his eight-foot-long snake spear and urging his black horse to charge into a bloody alley. How could those black bandits stop him like this? Killer God?

It had been a long time since he had fought such an enjoyable battle.

"Alas, there is no one who can fight." Lu Bu lost interest after killing several Black Mountain bandits. He raised his halberd and retreated, standing by the tent to protect the emperor's safety.

What can arouse his desire to fight can only be found when he fights with a highly skilled general, or when he leads the cavalry in an attack.

This kind of one-sided massacre couldn't make his blood boil.

In the end, after a melee, the officers and soldiers killed more than a thousand Black Mountain bandits and captured more than a thousand others. Zhang Liao led 800 wolf cavalry to hunt down other deserters.

……

Yang Feng hurriedly led the reinforcements, but there was still no time to rescue him. When he was still more than four miles away from the army camp, he heard the shouts of killing getting smaller and smaller. Almost at the same time, a large number of The defeated army of Montenegro was fleeing this way desperately.

"It's over!" Yang Feng felt cold, knowing that Huanglong had been defeated and there was no point in going there.

So he stopped the march of the army, stopped a fleeing Black Mountain bandit and said, "What's going on? Where is Huang Long?"

"We were ambushed. Huang Shuai is dead. The officers and soldiers are too strong. Run!" After the Black Mountain bandit finished speaking, he ran away.

"Withdraw!" Yang Feng waved his hand decisively, and the Baibo Army's rear team changed to the front team, and they immediately turned and ran back.

Not long after running, he heard the sound of horse hooves behind him. Yang Feng looked back and saw a sea of ​​fire moving quickly towards this side. It was the torch held by the cavalry, lighting up half of the sky.

"Stop the whole army and form a formation! Get ready to meet the enemy!" Yang Feng shouted loudly, "The sword players are in front and the spearmen are behind. Hurry up, the cavalry is coming, form a formation!"

Over the years, he has dealt with cavalry a lot, and he knows that at such a close distance, it is impossible for the infantry to escape, and the only way to deal with it is to form a formation.

In the past, his battles were no different from other Baibo troops. They always surged up with a roar, or collapsed with a roar.

After fighting several times with the army in Hanoi, he also began to think about using arrays to increase the offensive and defensive capabilities of the infantry. He had conducted several preliminary drills, but they had not been tested in actual combat. Today was the first time in his life. Array in actual combat.

"Light the torch!" Yang Feng shouted loudly. At this point, we can only fight hard. Fortunately, according to early sentinel inspections, the number of cavalry in the army is not large. I hope that this so-called phalanx can resist for a while, which is better than being defeated thousands of miles away.

Soon, the official cavalry rushed forward, but they did not continue to rush forward, but formed a cavalry square.

Looking at the general under his banner, Yang Feng couldn't help but gasp, it was Zhang Liao!

He and Zhang Liao had fought many times, and each time they came back defeated. He almost became the opponent's prisoner in Pinggao. He also saw Zhang Liao's heroic charge leading the cavalry in Wen County. Now seeing Zhang Liao again, he couldn't help but feel... I was a little frightened at first.

Zhang Liao picked up his sword and horse, walked a few steps forward, came to the formation of the two armies, cupped his fists and said, "General Yang Feng, we meet again."

After speaking, he looked at the Bai Bo military formation opposite, with a disdainful smile on his face.

Yang Feng didn't dare to step forward, so he clasped his fists in the military formation and said nothing.

He really didn't know what to say in this situation. He should say something harsh. He was really unsure and couldn't be tough. He could say something begging for mercy. Three thousand brothers were watching behind him, so he couldn't say it.

"Xu Gongming once mentioned the general in front of Zhang several times, saying that the general is a loyal and righteous man." Zhang Liao said loudly, "Since you know your loyalty, why not surrender to the imperial court? After Xu Gongming surrendered with the Bai Bo brothers, he was highly used by your majesty. The general abandoned the secret and surrendered to the queen. He will definitely be entrusted with important responsibilities!”

Yang Feng opened his mouth but said nothing.

"The general must have seen that there is no way out for rebellion. You are no match for the official army." Zhang Liao continued, "Let alone fighting, you may not even have enough food and grass. By the way, you may not know yet. Guo Tai and Zhang Yan have both been defeated and fled, and Wen County fell into the hands of the army."

"Ah?" Yang Feng was surprised. They were ambushing here and they hadn't received the news yet. "Is what General Zhang said the truth?"

"Everything is true," Zhang Liao said, "Furthermore, the Baibo Army and the Black Mountain Army have become mortal enemies. They are currently fighting each other in the Black Mountain area, but General Yang is here with the Black Mountain bandits to ambush the officers and soldiers. Don't you think it's ridiculous?"

Yang Feng was completely stunned. This series of changes made him unable to recover for a long time.

Isn't it agreed that the two waves of people will join forces to deal with the Dog Emperor? Why is it that the Dog Emperor is victorious, but his side is fighting internally?

What's ridiculous is that he and the Black Mountain bandits are planning how to deal with the government troops together.

"How about General Yang, you are now alone." Zhang Liao continued to confuse, "And the Black Mountain bandits may attack you at any time. As of now, the only way is to surrender to the imperial court."

Zhang Liao's voice was so loud that all the Baibo thieves heard it clearly, and they immediately started whispering and discussing.

"The commander-in-chief has run away, what are we still doing here working hard?"

"I can't even eat, how can I have the strength to fight?"

"I heard that if you become a prisoner of the army, you can have enough to eat." ...that's all.

When Yang Feng heard the discussion behind him, he looked back and saw that all the sergeants were at a loss. They didn't know what to choose at the moment. He sighed secretly in his heart, clasped his fists and said: "Thank you General Wenyuan for telling me, but it's difficult to tell the truth or falsehood." The information needs to be verified by Yang. If the general has nothing else to do, then Yang will withdraw."

As he spoke and waved his hand, the infantry retreated slowly and cautiously.

"Captain Zhang!" A soldier stepped forward and reminded him doubtfully, "The thief is about to escape!"

"Let them go." Zhang Liao waved his hand.

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of horse hooves sounded in front of him. Yang Feng came back and said with a fist in his hand: "Don't pass through the valley in front. It is safe to detour to other places."

"Thank you for the reminder." Zhang Liao also clasped his fists and said, "The Huns soldiers are harassing Luoyang. You have set up an ambush here. This is a plan to encircle the point and provide reinforcements. Your Majesty has already seen through it, and we also know your specific troop deployment. The four Huns cavalry Thousands, the Black Mountain Army and the Baibo Army each have 20,000, right! Luoyang is safe and sound, right?"

Yang Feng was silent for a while, sighed, and said, "Oh, it seems that the Han family is not exhausted yet!"

After saying that, he hugged his fists, turned around and galloped off.

"If the general surrenders, Zhang is willing to protect the general and the senior officials in front of His Majesty!" Zhang Liao looked at Yang Feng's back and said loudly. Watching him disappear into the night, he turned around and led the wolf cavalry back to the camp.

At this time, the camp has been cleaned up, the Chinese army's tent has been rebuilt, and the soldiers are sleeping happily and returning to their cages.

After three poles in the sun, Liu Mingcai summoned the generals to discuss matters.

Liu Bei publicly announced the results of last night's battle. He captured a thousand enemies and killed a thousand enemies. He killed the Black Mountain bandit Qu Shuai Huanglong and seized countless swords, guns and equipment.

"After the interrogation of Wei Chen, it has been confirmed that the Black Mountain Bandits and the Baibo Bandits are ambushing in the valley in front." Liu Bei said, "They did not go to Luoyang at all. As your Majesty expected, they were just encircling the area for reinforcements. Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

"Last night, Baibo thief Yang Feng was actually behind to respond, but Huanglong was defeated too quickly and he didn't have time to come over." Zhang Liao immediately recounted his conversation with Yang Feng and said, "I heard Xu Gongming said that Yang Feng actually He has a lot of loyalty, but now he is in trouble. If we can surrender without any bloodshed, it will be very helpful to disintegrate the enemy's morale."

Liu Ming heard from Zhang Liao that Yang Feng actually told him not to go to this valley, which shows that he is really a man of righteousness.

Recalling the information about Yang Feng in his previous life, although this man was a rogue, he left a strong mark on history. Without his support, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty might not have been able to return east to Luoyang.

He is also a person who has contributed to the Han Dynasty. Of course, Yang Feng is still just a rebel.

However, as Zhang Liao said, if Yang Feng can surrender, it will be very helpful to disintegrate the morale of the thieves, especially the Baibo army.

There are still 40,000 people in this valley. If half of them can be collected, there will still be 20,000 people. Thinking of this, Liu Ming's heart became eager.

"Since Luoyang is worry-free, we don't have to rush to Kyoto." Liu Ming said with a smile, "We will neither pass through nor detour through the valley here, we will camp here and wait for Yang Feng to surrender. They must be running out of food and grass, Wenyuan will send them some food and some wine today, but of course not too much, just enough for two days, and we will deliver it in two days."

"The priority is to attack the heart, and the priority is to attack the city. Your Majesty has mastered the art of war." Zhang Liao praised.

"But... Yang Feng intends to surrender, but the Black Mountain bandits may not surrender." Liu Ming pondered for a moment, "Find a way to let Yang Feng and his Baibo bandits annex the Black Mountain bandits."

"The reason why Mrs. Guo attacked Zhang Yan may have something to do with it." Lu Bu suddenly said, "When the general was attacking the Wen County government office, Zhang Yan deliberately shouted the location of Mrs. Guo. After she fled, she locked the back door, causing Guo Tai and Hu Cai were imprisoned in the courtyard. In the end, although Guo Tai climbed over the wall and escaped, Hu Cai died under the halberd of the general. Guo Tai must have deeply hated Zhang Yan's behavior of adding insult to injury, so he did not stop and led his troops to attack Heishan. camp."

This was the first time for everyone to hear this detail. If you think about it carefully, it might be the reason. Otherwise, why would the two waves of thieves suddenly start their operation after being so good.

Zhang Yan sold Mrs. Guo and almost died in Wen County. Naturally, Mrs. Guo held a grudge, and then they turned against each other, so everything made sense.

"Improve these details and tell Yang Feng to provoke a conflict between the Baibo bandits and the Black Mountain bandits." Liu Mingdao said, "I will wait to reap the benefits."

Everyone felt relaxed. Without the pressure from Luoyang, everyone was not in a hurry to go back, so they rested in the camp and at the same time sent people to Wen County to report the situation here.

……

Luoyang, Jianfu.

Jian Shuo, Yuan Wei, Sun Jian, and Yuan Shu were discussing matters.

Jian Shuo pushed the edict in front of everyone and said: "Your Majesty has issued an edict, asking us to protect Luoyang. Your Majesty is leading the elite troops to drive back."

Yuan Wei breathed a sigh of relief and said: "If your Majesty can return to Beijing and unite as one, it will not be difficult to defend Luoyang. However, it is strange to say that the Huns soldiers only wandered under Luoyang City for two days and then disappeared. ?What’s the purpose?”

No one answered.

Sun Jian and Yuan Shu both felt a little heavy.

It can be said that both of these two people were guilty, but they did not make atonement. Sun Jian did not regain Hongnong County, but was defeated by Li Jue. Although Yuan Shu led his troops to Hangu Pass, he was defeated by Dong Zhuo. In the battle, there was no achievement.

If His Majesty returns to the capital and is held accountable, they may all end badly.

Yuan Wei glanced at the two of them and suddenly understood in his heart that the reason why the two of them had the audacity to do those things was inseparable from Yuan Wei's connivance and even instructions.

It was Yuan Kai who ordered Sun Jian to kill the Nanyang governor, but Sun Jian was so excited that he even killed the Jingzhou governor.

Although Yuan Shu attacked Wancheng and robbed the treasury, it was not Yuan Wei's instigation, but it was indeed Yuan Kai's idea to let Yuan Shu go back to his hometown to recruit troops.

Now that the emperor is about to return to Beijing, it is impossible to ignore this. How should we deal with it then? If a strict investigation is carried out, Yuan Wei may also be implicated.

Yuan Wei turned his attention to Jian Shuo. Although he hated this person very much, he was afraid that the solution to the crisis now would fall on this gelding.

———— Today is the beginning of spring. I wish all the big guys a happy spring breeze and a successful career!
