Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 98
On Fuluo's side, there was no shadow of the opponent after chasing and chasing. Now he can only follow the opponent's horseshoe and other traces to move forward.Yu Fuluo knew that he had lost now.I'm afraid Gongsun Xu doesn't know where he went now. Now Gongsun Xu can take a few soldiers and escape secretly from the main force, but Yu Fuluo still decides to chase.

"Give the order, all the soldiers spread out, and search forward in a net formation. If you encounter an enemy army, don't fight it, just report it immediately. Anyone who finds the enemy's traces will be rewarded with a hundred sheep." Yu Fuluo now only has this way up.

Gongsun Xu's side will soon step into the grassland, which is suitable for galloping horses. Gongsun Xu is still in danger, and he has only temporarily thrown off Yu Fuluo. If he catches up, his side will still be in trouble .Gongsun Xu felt that he needed to think carefully about his next move.

After running for another half an hour, Gongsun Xu finally found a forest and a river flowing around the forest. The river was big enough for Gongsun Xu's party and horses to drink.Seeing that the soldiers and horses on his side were panting, Gongsun Xu knew it was time to take a rest.Otherwise, I don't have the physical strength to continue entanglement.

"There are all of them, leaving traces of 100 people buried, and the rest went to the woods to rest, Sun Ce, you take dozens of people to drive [-] war horses to the depths of the grassland for a stick of incense, and then make a detour, remember, come back Time to bury traces."

"No." Everyone immediately became busy.Gongsun Xu took the rest of the people to hide in the woods to rest, and the rest went to busy with their own affairs.

Half an hour later, Sun Ce returned with the last men and horses. After counting, Gongsun Xu found that there were more than 260 soldiers and more than 800 horses on his side.What I need now is to rest and recover my strength quickly.

But Gongsun Xu couldn't rest now, he still had to find a way to get back to the allied camp, and now he was running farther and farther, not to mention the Huns, I'm afraid even his father's reinforcements couldn't find where he was.

Gongsun Xu immediately held a military meeting. When Sun Ce reported that he had just encountered a small tribe with only 500 people on the road, Gongsun Xu immediately ordered: "Second brother, you immediately lead 200 people to attack this tribe. Remember, try to snatch cattle and horses. , Don't worry about the rest of the supplies, and don't get entangled with the other party, just grab a hundred cows or horses, don't cause unnecessary damage, and remember to leave traces elsewhere when retreating.

Also, when you come back, wait for me ten miles downstream of the river, and I will pick you up there.Remember, you can't go back here directly, you have to be in the lower reaches of the river, otherwise, your whereabouts will be exposed, understand? "

Sun Ce immediately took the order and went down to act.Gongsun Xu is making hidden weapons and digging traps.It seems to be waiting for the Huns to come to the decisive battle.

Soon, Sun Ce successfully drove back more than 150 horses and oxen and more than 200 sheep, and also robbed a lot of cooking utensils.Gongsun Xu sneered and said: "Don't worry so much, set up the pot, kill the cattle and sheep, let's have a big meal first."

From the beginning of the snatching of marriage to the present, everyone had only had one full meal in Mangshan Mountain. Although some dry food was stuffed into their stomachs along the way, the physical exertion along the way was too great, and the dry food had already been exhausted.

Sun Ce asked suspiciously, "Brother, our blatant life will definitely arouse the suspicion of the nearby tribes, so our previous cover will be in vain."

"Just follow orders. Come fifty people. Let's find something good for the Huns." Gongsun Xu was not in a hurry to explain to Sun Ce. Can.

It is useless to be anxious at this time, we have to hurry up, the Huns will not give us too much time, if we want to survive, we have to fight for it ourselves, it is useless to be as stupid as you are, hahahaha, if Yide is here again, He's sure to have a good laugh. "

Sun Ce had no choice but to obey orders.Soon, the beef was boiling in the cauldron, and some soldiers who couldn't wait had already cut off a piece of beef and grilled it on the fire, which was much faster than cooking.

Gongsun Xu himself was also grilling meat. After filling his stomach in a hurry, Gongsun Xu did not order to retreat immediately but continued to order: "Slaughter ten more cows and distribute the cooked and roasted beef to each soldier. I don't have much dry food on me, so I'm afraid I won't have the chance to eat like this again, so eat more if you can, and wrap up what you can't eat.

Soldiers, I am afraid that this time I really try to eat and drink as much as possible. The next one is a tough battle. We have no time or opportunity to eat and drink soup like this. Let me eat with an open stomach. The premise is not to give up your stomach. Stretched. "

Everyone knew that there was going to be a big battle next, and this meal was probably their last full meal.Everyone ate with their stomachs open.

After eating and drinking, Gongsun Xu saw that there was still a lot of food left in the pot. Beside the fire were all beef bones, and all the soldiers' grain bags were also filled with cooked beef.Gongsun Xu nodded and said: "Come 100 people, and I will send out the extra cattle, sheep and horses. The rest, except the sentry, rest."

The sentries immediately took up their responsibilities. After Gongsun Xu secretly sent the extra cattle, sheep and horses dozens of miles away, there were more than 80 people left behind. Lie down and fell asleep straight away.Two hours later, the sentinel sent news that the Huns' pursuit had reached fifty miles away.Gongsun Xu immediately called all the soldiers to stand up and prepare for battle.

After everyone was ready to go, Gongsun Xu looked at Sun Ce and said, "Are you ready?"

"Don't worry, big brother, everything will be done according to big brother's orders."

Gongsun Xu nodded and said with a smile: "Soldiers, the Huns are too stupid to come after us now. However, we have almost rested. Now, let's retreat and let the Huns follow us to eat ashes. Hahahaha .” After speaking, he led the horse and walked towards the other direction of the deep forest.Everyone followed behind Gongsun Xu, and the last 100 people were responsible for burying the traces.

Half an hour later, Yu Fuluo's 3000 people finally arrived near the forest. Yu Fuluo looked at the forest and said, "There are traces of galloping war horses along the way, but there are no traces within ten miles of this forest. According to the description of the tribe just now, Gongsun Xu must be hiding in the forest.

The scouts reported that there were no traces of a large number of horses within a radius of twenty miles. Even if Gongsun Xu wanted to bury the traces, he would not be able to sweep them away along the twenty miles.This forest is a natural barrier, and there is such a large river nearby to provide drinking water, so no matter how cunning Gongsun Xu is, he has no choice but to choose to rest here. "

Next to him, Yu Fuluo's lieutenant immediately suggested: "Shanyu, why don't I lead someone in to test it out? Gongsun Xu probably wants to rely on the forest as a cover. If we rush in rashly, I'm afraid we will fall into the other party's tricks."

Yu Fuluo nodded in agreement, and the lieutenant immediately led 500 people to the forest.After walking half a mile into the forest, many people were hit by hidden weapons and trapped. After losing nearly 100 people, the Huns finally arrived at the place where Gongsun Xu lived and barbecued.

The deputy general of the Xiongnu checked the surrounding traces and confirmed that the Youzhou army had just rested here and immediately sent someone to report to Fuluo. There were still delicious beef soup boiling in many cauldrons, and there were still beef on many shelves that had not been removed. There are also a few cattle and sheep that have just been slaughtered.

All of this shows that the Youzhou army had just rested here, but they retreated in an emergency just halfway through eating, and they didn't even have time to take away the almost cooked beef.

Looking at the degree to which the beef is cooked and roasted, it means that the Youzhou army left within less than half a stick of incense, but there are no traces of galloping horses around the forest. state army.There is only one explanation for this, the Youzhou army hid deep in the forest.

The [-] Hun soldiers who stayed behind to guard the camp here were already starving. Looking at the delicious food, everyone was drooling.The soldier who reported the message had just left, and if everyone came later, everyone might be able to eat half full. Perhaps, the soldiers with lower status would not be able to eat anything.

The clever soldier cut off a large piece of cooked beef and sent it to the lieutenant. The lieutenant couldn't delay. Looking at the beef bones all over the floor, the lieutenant decided again and again that there was no problem with the barbecue and started to eat it. Don't forget to invite other people to eat together.

The remaining 400 people immediately robbed the grilled and cooked beef first, and at the same time did not forget to put the beef that was still bleeding or throw it into the pot. After 400 people had a big meal, Yu Fuluo also brought 1000 people in.

After listening to the deputy general's report, Yu Fuluo immediately sent [-] soldiers to explore the depths of the forest.At the same time, I also grabbed a piece of barbecue and gnawed on it.

After one stick of incense time, only more than 100 of the [-] soldiers sent back came back, and the rest died under traps and hidden weapons.This made Yu Fuluo even more sure that the Youzhou Army was hiding deep in the forest.While Yu Fuluo was thinking, many soldiers around him suddenly foamed at the mouth and rolled on the ground.

Yu Fuluo knew that he had been tricked again, so he led everyone out immediately.

After withdrawing from the forest, Yu Fuluo counted only 300 people who were poisoned, of which 100 people still have a chance to be saved, and the remaining 200 people will not die temporarily, but they may not be cured.

When Yu Fuluo was wondering, the lieutenant just now suddenly pointed to the top of the deep forest and said: "Look, Shan Yu, a large group of flying birds is startled, there must be ambushes in the deep forest."

Yu Fuluo raised his head, and sure enough, he saw patches of birds flying up, as if someone was shuttling through the forest.

All of this hints at one thing, the Youzhou army is ambushing deep in the forest.

However, Yu Fuluo became suspicious instead: "This Gongsun Xu, does he really dare to hide in the forest?"
