Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 341: The Way of Losing Grain

Wang Wei had followed Liu Biao for a long time and gained considerable prestige in the army. He was very strategic and won Liu Biao's trust.

"General, we have discovered the rebel army's food route. Xiyang is the only place the rebel army must pass through to transport food and grass," the deputy general said in a low voice.

Chen Lan's eyes lit up when he heard this. Chen Lan was able to win Zhang Xun's trust not only because of his outstanding martial arts, but more importantly, Chen Lan's strategy was much better than his martial arts. This is why Zhang Xun felt confident recommending Chen Lan.

.

"Order the scouts to be careful and not to be discovered by the bandits." Chen Lan warned.

The deputy general said disdainfully: "General, although the Jingzhou Army has 3,000 troops escorting grain and grass and only 200 cavalry, our army can defeat them with just one charge."

"Don't underestimate the Jingzhou Army. Wang Wei is a well-known general in the Jingzhou Army. Moreover, our army's mission is to harass the opponent's food and grass. It is not to fight against the Jingzhou Army. It only needs to burn the food and grass." A flash of light flashed in Chen Lan's eyes.

If the rebel army's food and grass are cut off, and the one hundred thousand army will be defeated, then we will be the heroes of the Zhong family, and we will be granted the title of marquis."

The lieutenant clasped his fists and said, feeling a little excited in his heart, "Being a Marquis, that is an honor that many people dream of."

Wang Wei escorted the grain and grass, and he was careful along the way, for fear of any mistakes. He sent a hundred cavalry to the surrounding areas to closely inquire about the news. There were 100,000 coalition forces, but robbing grain was an unprofitable business. Escorting

There is still a big gap between the army of grain and grass and the elite of combat.

"General, the valley ahead is about one mile long. After careful investigation, the soldiers found that there are no enemy troops." The deputy general said, cupping his fists.

"Inquire carefully again." Wang Wei said cautiously.

The deputy general clasped his fists and left, feeling very dissatisfied. The traitor Yuan Shu led his army to stay in Anfeng. It is said that he did not even dare to go out of the city to fight, so how could he dare to send people to plunder food and grass.

However, Wang Wei was the commander-in-chief of the army, so he could only order his soldiers to search again.

After passing the valley, there is an open area. At this time, Chen Lan was leading the cavalry to ambush here. He also explored the valley and knew that it was a good terrain. However, Chen Lan did not choose to set up an ambush here, but chose the valley.

To attack the Jingzhou Army on a flat ground outside, Chen Lan knew that what he could think of, and Wang Wei could certainly think of, the Jingzhou Army would be very careful in exploring the valley. In this way, even if they ambush the army, they would not achieve anything, but would be exposed.

If you lose your identity and ambush outside the valley, it can have a surprising effect.

"General, the Jingzhou army is too slow and has been delaying entering the valley." the deputy general muttered.

"If you were asked to escort the grain and grass, I'm afraid the grain and grass would have been robbed by the enemy a long time ago." Chen Lan scolded.

"General, you also know the skills of the humble position. It's okay to follow the general in the charge, but if you let the humble position lead alone, isn't that asking for death?" The deputy general grinned.

"How can you just think about being a lieutenant? If you can cut off the rebel army's food route this time, the Holy Emperor will definitely reward you. As a general, you must always observe the battlefield and think carefully. Otherwise, no matter how brave you are, you can only

The lives of the soldiers were ruined in vain. Everyone in the world thought that the Marquis of Jin was an ordinary man. Little did they know that the Marquis of Jin was able to win repeated battles not only because of his elite soldiers, but more importantly, because of his resourcefulness. Otherwise, you would think that with three thousand flying cavalry,

, can we sweep across Xianbei and make the Xianbei army return without success?"

The deputy general clasped his fists and said yes. The Marquis of Jin is a model for warriors in the world and a hero in the hearts of many generals. "If the general can defeat the rebel coalition, then the Marquis of Jin will be nothing."

"Don't underestimate the Marquis of Jin." Chen Lan said seriously.

"I understand, I understand that the Marquis of Jin is the honor of a military general and will not be blasphemed." The deputy general said, clasping his fists.

"Order the soldiers to prepare, the Jingzhou Army is about to enter the valley." Chen Lan whispered.

"How did the general know about it?" the deputy general asked puzzledly.

Chen Lan pointed at several almost invisible shadows on the mountain tops on both sides of the valley, "Those people must be the scouts sent by the Jingzhou Army to the battlefield to find out news."

Following the direction of Chen Lan's finger, the deputy general found that there were little black shadows on the opposite mountain peak. If he hadn't observed carefully, he would not have been able to tell that they were soldiers of the Jingzhou Army, and he admired Chen Lan even more.

"General, there are no traces of enemy troops in the valley ahead. The peaks on both sides are also occupied by our soldiers. Not far ahead is the army. No matter how courageous the enemy is, they will not dare to plunder the army's food and grass here." The deputy general.

He said dissatisfiedly that he was a general under Wenpin and was ordered to assist Wang Wei. He originally admired Wang Wei, but when he saw Wang Wei's timid appearance along the way, he was very contemptuous.

"Order the cavalry to go ahead and inquire about the situation outside the valley, and the convoy will follow later." Wang Wei said.

Probably because he couldn't stand Wang Wei's caution, the deputy general led two hundred cavalry and rushed towards the valley first. The horses galloped. After a while, they passed the valley. He looked back at the slow convoy and coldly snorted: "If Yuan Shu is like this

If you have courage, you won’t be stubborn.”

"General, Wang Wei is the commander-in-chief of the army after all. It would be bad if he hears it."

"Humph, what are you afraid of? This general is under the command of General Wenpin, and I will be afraid of his power." The deputy general said coldly. Wenpin is a fierce general under Liu Biao. He has won Liu Biao's trust and respect. In comparison, he can only

Wang Wei, who escorted the grain and fodder, seemed a little bad.

"General, would you like to send someone to investigate?"

"No need. Looking around, there are no enemies. Let the brothers dismount and take a rest. Be cautious along the way. It's quite tiring."

When he saw the cavalry of the Jingzhou Army suddenly appearing outside the valley, Chen Lan's heart tightened. If these cavalry carefully probed, they would definitely be able to find traces of their own side. In this way, they would have failed. Chen Lan was about to order people to evacuate and wait for the opportunity.

, saw the cavalry of the Jingzhou Army resting outside the valley, looking happy.

"God is really helping the Zhong family." Chen Lan murmured.

"Can we explore the surroundings in detail?" The convoy walked out of the valley and spent a full hour.

"General, there are no enemy troops around. After passing Anfeng, we are not far from the main army. No matter how brave the rebel generals are, they would not dare to plan for food and grass here." the deputy general replied.

"It is precisely because the army is not far from here that we must be more careful." Wang Wei glared at the deputy general.

"What's the majesty? He's just a general escorting food and grass." The deputy general said secretly.

The baggage required for a hundred thousand troops could not be transported at one time, but Wang Wei escorted the most grain and grass. Together with the civilians collected, there were a total of ten thousand people, making the team a mighty one.

"Kill!" Chen Lan gave the order, and the cavalry that had been prepared suddenly rushed out from both sides of the convoy. In addition to their weapons, these cavalrymen also carried a blazing torch.
