Aspiration

Chapter 88 Ambush on the Plain
Seven days after Li Laiheng left Zhang Wenxiu, he was waiting for Zhang Kewang's army in the jujube forest.

Zhang Kewang changed his battle plan. Instead of attacking Jingmen, he changed to attack Yicheng.

Yicheng is very close to Xiangyang, and it is only shocking to play here.It is more than 700 miles from Shiyan to Yicheng, and only a hundred miles from Xiangyang.There are three dangerous places on the Baili Road, and these three dangerous places are good places to lay an ambush.However, Zhang Kewang did not deploy a single soldier at these three dangerous places, and near the Li family's courtyard in Yimapingchuan, all Zhang Kewang's troops were hidden here, and he was going to lay an ambush here.Laying an ambush on the plain, through the ages, perhaps only Zhang Kewang could think of it.

Li Laiheng appreciates this strategy.There is no danger in the Li family's courtyard, and the terrain is open. There is no precedent for military strategists to set up an ambush in this kind of place. Of course, the enemy will not take any precautions.This is the so-called virtual reality, so that the enemy has nothing to guard against.

When Zhang Kewang attacked Yicheng, the officers and soldiers must have known that he was adopting a strategy of besieging the city and fighting for aid, so they would be cautious and cautious in the three dangerous places.Once the three dangerous places are safe and sound, and once they enter the plains, the nerves of the officers and soldiers will soon be relaxed, and the formation will be scattered. If an elite soldier suddenly appears at this time, it is likely to be able to defeat the opponent in one fell swoop.

Of course, this tactic relies absolutely on strength.

Others may not have this power.But Zhang Kewang has it. He is known as the God of War, and he is also known as the Ever Victorious General. As long as he takes the initiative in the battle, he has never lost.

This time, he won't lose.However, he is not only in order not to lose, he also has a goal, he must kill the enemy as much as possible.However, he had only three thousand cavalry.

Li Laiheng was ready to help him.

Zhang Kewang has already surrounded Yicheng tightly.

His crimes turned upside down in the city.Important places such as military rations, food and grass, the deputy general's mansion, the state capital, etc. are now in flames.

In the city, there was panic.On the city wall, the guards were also trembling. They had a premonition that the city would be broken before tonight.

Zhang Kewang was not in a hurry to attack the city, they lined up outside the city.They knew that no officers and soldiers dared to go out of the city to fight.

They besieged but did not attack, allowing the city to be burned, killed and looted.

At night, Zhang Kewang lit torches and lit bonfires in many places. Outside the city, the fires were brightly lit.During the day, people in the city estimated that Zhang Kewang only had [-] troops. At night, it was different. It seemed that tens of thousands of people were stationed outside the city.Three batches of soldiers have been dispatched to rescue the soldiers.At the earliest, the rescuers will not be available until noon tomorrow.

That night, the guards in the city had a hard time.

the next day.The sun was shining brightly, and there were many banners faintly outside the city.

Xiong Guang, the deputy commander in chief, looked into the distance when he was patrolling, and Zhang Kewang's strength increased a lot.He thought, what are they waiting for?He didn't come to attack the city yesterday, so he must be waiting for reinforcements. Now, Zhang Kewang's troops have increased by tens of thousands, and they will definitely come to attack the city today.

Xiong Guang, the deputy commander, looked at his own strength. He was shabby to death. There were only two thousand guards in the city, and two thousand commanders helped him. enemy.Especially when they knew that Zhang Kewang was leading the army, they were already frightened.

He kept chanting Buddha's name and begging Bodhisattva in his heart, and his only thought was to hope that the rescuers would come soon.

There is a low-lying area in Li's yard. When the Han River rises, the area is often swampy. Farmers only order food in autumn and winter, and there are no crops in summer.

Zhang Kewang's three thousand soldiers and horses were all in ambush here.He didn't know that a force would come to his aid today.

To the west of Li's courtyard, there is Dongjiawan.Li Laiheng waited quietly in Dongjiawan for the shouts of killing from the Li family's courtyard. As long as Zhang Kewang launched an attack, Li Laiheng would kill from Dongjiawan, and it only took half a stick of incense to kill him.He quietly waited for the movement over there.

Today, they are divided into three shock teams.Luo Hu had a brigade of 200 people, and he rushed into the main formation from the left; Wang Si, also a brigade of 200 people, rushed into the main formation from the right; Li Laiheng's two brigades of 400 people rushed in from the middle, cutting through the enemy's formation .

According to intelligence reports, there are more than 4000 enemies who came to aid today, and the difference in strength is not large. He and Zhang Kewang together have almost [-] troops. Fight, the advantage is all on the side of Li Laiheng and Zhang Kewang.

So, today's goal is total annihilation.

Li Laiheng's yellow horse seemed to smell the breath before the battle, and was particularly excited. Its recent battles were all short.A good warhorse also loves the atmosphere of the battlefield.Only on the battlefield can they find passion and vitality. The usual gallop is boring and dull, but only on the battlefield can they really get excited.

Therefore, they also long for the battlefield.

Soon, there was a faint noise, which looked like a killing sound.

"rush!"

With an order, the war horse has already vacated into the air, and the soldiers followed the war horse into the air, and they also jumped on the war horse.

Eight hundred war horses and eight hundred elite troops galloped towards Li's courtyard in overwhelming numbers.Behind, a piece of yellow dust was left, covering the sky and covering the earth.

Saw.

Zhang Kewang's troops have been strangled in the enemy's line.In terms of numbers, Zhang Kewang was at a disadvantage. However, the officers and soldiers were already in disarray. They didn't have a decent resistance. The so-called resistance was only a short-term blockade by a small group, followed by a rout.

In the rear army, the enemy general came up, and the officers and soldiers around him were in an orderly manner. They were attacking and rushed towards Zhang Kewang.

Zhang Kewang turned around and rushed towards the enemy.However, he felt the toughness of this enemy, like a knife cut into rubber, it became sticky, and it was no longer as refreshing as before.

A lieutenant came forward with a gun.Tall and mighty.His aura is not lost to Zhang Kewang at all.

"Kill!" He used all his strength to stab Zhang Kewang, as if he was going to stab him right through.

Zhang Kewang's body was slightly tilted, his machete "hoo!" with a strong gust of wind, "poof!" half of the deputy general flew up.Intestines, heart and lungs leaked from the body, blood red.

All the people were horrified.

Zhang Kewang didn't stop, and with a turn of the blade, a head that was sideways flew and rolled in the air.

The enemy began to retreat, but it was too late, they were caught by Zhang Kewang.

At this moment, another fresh force came to kill them. They were the forwards of officers and soldiers who were scattered just now, and now they reorganized to fight back.They have a large number of people, and a large number of people is a kind of strength.

Zhang Kewang was trapped in the center.He won't lose, but what he needs to win is time and physical strength. With 8000 people surrounded by 3000 people, Zhang Kewang may die of exhaustion even if he is a cow.

Li Laiheng's troops rushed into the enemy's formation like arrows, leaving three blood trails behind them.

He did not rush in the direction of Zhang Kewang, but behind the officers and soldiers.

Li Laiheng and Zhang Kewang are surrounding the enemy!

The enemy's master is confused. Sun Tzu's Art of War says, "Ten will encircle him, five will attack him, double the enemy will fight him, and the enemy will divide him. Damn, bullying people?Obviously less than us, they actually came to surround us?

"If you don't kill these two groups of enemies, you don't want to live!" The enemy general was angry, and he gave the order to die.

Huang Kedao, the leader of the army, said that he had never seen such a tyrannical enemy in his life, nor had he seen such an arrogant person. He said to the generals, whoever kills these two enemy generals, I will protect him as the deputy commander.

Five generals rushed to meet Li Laiheng. They saw that Li Laiheng had few people, and it was enough to kill one out of five.

Li Laiheng's pupils began to dilate, and the five enemy generals were all tough guys. They didn't bother to kill other people, and none of their personal soldiers followed.

Li Laiheng sneered at the corner of his mouth, one-to-five, excited.His personal soldiers also slowed down a bit and took the lead. He shouted in his mind: "Kill!"

In an instant, the five corpses were all in special postures. The front half of the necks were all cut open, leaving the cervical spine. The muscles on the back of the neck were contracted, and the heads were tilted back.

The soldiers following him saw it and turned around hastily.The following generals stood still, they didn't see clearly how the five most aggressive colleagues died.

The enemy's attack has stalled, they are hesitating.

Li Laiheng didn't hesitate, he, Wang Si and Luo Hu stabbed everywhere like three sharp knives.

Now, they are ready to stab the heart of the enemy.

The commander-in-chief Huang Kedao deployed a group of heavy infantry in front of him. Zhang Kewang's sword fell, and the armor of the heavy infantry could not protect their bodies from being cut open. Still pounding heavy infantry.

Li Laiheng gestured to Wang Si and Luo Hu.

The meaning is very clear.Kill the enemy general.

Huang Kedao was frightened by this small team. They rushed over so fast that he had no chance to deploy heavy infantry or heavy cavalry in front of him.

"Kill!" Huang Kedao is not a coward.From his official position to the commander-in-chief, he did not rely on his background, but on the fame and fame he earned with a knife and a gun.

His personal soldiers and generals followed closely behind, hiding and killing him.

Li Laiheng said in his heart: "Okay!"

His personal soldiers took over Huang Kedao's personal soldiers and generals.Li Laiheng approached Huang Kedao easily, ten steps away.

Ten steps into Li Laiheng, you will be killed!

Huang Kedao stared and stopped moving. He didn't react. The opponent's sword light had already swept across his eyes, lightning-fast, and he had no chance to make any moves.

His head left the body.

The generals wanted to escape, but they had no chance. Wang Si, Luo Hu, and Li Laiheng, the three elites could not give them a chance to escape.

In an instant, more than a dozen generals became headless ghosts.
