Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu
Chapter 88: Temptation
Wang Ling was shocked. Judging from the strong murderous aura emanating from Lu Bu, he was definitely a master who would kill without blinking an eye. He quickly bowed and said yes, putting Lu Bu in a dangerous position in his heart.
However, he didn't think Lu Bu would see through their plan. There were no more than ten people who knew about it. Even if Li Yan took over the troops of the two counties, he would still have many ways to make these people turn against each other.
Half of the six thousand soldiers are private soldiers of noble families. The orders of noble families are more effective than the orders of the government. Li Yan will not gain anything when he joins the army. These soldiers will only obey his orders.
After staring at Wang Ling for a long time, Lu Bu didn't find any clues, so he said: "Commander Wang, take General Li to familiarize yourself with the situation of the armies in the two counties. General Li is a veteran on the battlefield. Let him assist in order to be able to help you faster."
Defeat the remnants of the Yellow Turbans."
Wang Ling obeyed, but he didn't agree in his heart. In his eyes, Lu Bu just relied on luck to defeat the Huns who had no brains. If it were Zhang Yang, there would be no such thing as Lu Bu in Bingzhou.
With Baibo Valley as the center, there is no human habitation in a radius of more than fifty miles. Lu Bu was very surprised when he learned about this situation. This Yellow Turban Army is not simple and knows the principles of strong walls and clearing the country. However, Baibo Valley is within the territory of Bingzhou. Is this method possible?
Will it be useful?
After arriving at Baibo Valley, Lu Bu became nervous. As long as there was enough food and grass in Baibo Valley, even if another 20,000 troops came, they would not be able to capture Baibo Valley.
This is a natural refuge. The entrance to the valley is narrow, which gives the Yellow Turbans in the Baibo Valley enough time to deal with the larger number of enemies. The narrow passage can prevent thousands of people from entering with only a few hundred people.
One step ahead of Taniguchi, where the advantage in numbers cannot be used at all.
"I heard that Mrs. Guo treated the people well, so I thought the people went to Baibo Valley to seek refuge with him." Lu Bu said with emotion: "No people are willing to become thieves, they are just forced to do so."
"My lord is kind-hearted. If the people in the valley know about my lord's benevolence and righteousness, they will definitely rush to seek refuge with him." Jia Xu agreed.
"Don't be ridiculous, there are nearly 30,000 Yellow Turban troops in Baibo Valley. They have fields in the valley, and our army's food and grass need to be transported from various places. If this continues, as long as Guo Tai sticks to Baibo Valley, our army may not even be able to enter the valley.
go."
"My lord, if we are not in a hurry to attack Baibo Valley, why not test Wangling first? Baibo Valley is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If you want to attack the valley, you need to find another way." Jia Xu said in a low voice.
"Testing? How to test?" Lu Bu asked.
"My lord, if Wang Ling and Guo Nei Guo are too old, they will definitely not attack the valley with all their heart, and the Yellow Turban Army in the valley will not really fight. If so, wouldn't it be possible to see through it at a glance?"
After a conversation, the two decided to stabilize the interior first. Although the Yellow Turban army was large in number, the soldiers were not very elite. Lu Bu was not worried at all that these Yellow Turbans would come out of the valley to attack. If Guo Tai led his troops out of the valley to fight, it would be much easier.
.
In the main tent of the Chinese army, Lu Bu knelt down and sat at the head of the tent. He looked around at the generals in the tent, "Everyone, Guo Tai and others, the remnants of the Yellow Turbans in the Baibo Valley, refused to surrender. Now that the army is pressing down, we should work together to capture the Baibo Valley."
The generals in the tent were discussing a lot. They all understood the terrain of Baibo Valley. If they attacked by force, there would be a lot of casualties.
"My lord, my subordinates suggest that we divide the army into three steps and attack Baibo Valley in turn, without giving the remnants of the Yellow Turbans in the valley a chance to breathe." Jia Xu stood up and said.
"Well, Wen He's words make sense." Lu Bu nodded.
"General, Baibo Valley is easy to defend but difficult to attack, so you should think again." Li Yan advised.
As an emerging general of the Bingzhou Army and the deputy general of Fei Qi, Li Yan still has a certain prestige in the Bingzhou Army.
Seeing that everyone was turning their attention to him, Lu Bu said seriously: "We must attack the remnants of the Yellow Turbans without delay. We will reward you based on your merits after capturing the Baibo Valley."
Lu Bu had absolute prestige in the Bingzhou army. Seeing his persistence, everyone had no choice but to accept the order.
Wang Ling secretly laughed in his heart. He was indeed a martial artist who didn't understand strategy or the general situation. According to Lu Bu, the Bingzhou army would be defeated without any strategy, so there was no need to cooperate inside and outside.
"Order Hao Meng to be the first division and lead 6,000 infantry to attack Baibo Valley; Wangling is the second division to lead 6,000 troops and horses from two counties to attack Baibo Valley; I, the general, will personally lead 6,000 troops and horses to be the third division.
"
"No." The generals in the tent said in unison.
After everyone left, Lu Bu kept Li Yan behind.
"General Li, the thieves in Baibo Valley are powerful. In your opinion, what should we do?"
Seeing that Lu Bu seemed to be thinking about himself, Li Yan thought for a moment and then said: "General, the Baibo Valley occupies the terrain, so we should slowly plan for it, and the new Bingzhou army has entered the battle for the first time. If the losses are huge, I'm afraid the morale of the army will be unstable."
"Take it slowly?" Lu Bu said with a frown.
"General, the terrain of Baibo Valley is complex. It is impossible for Mrs. Guo to cover everything. As long as we find other roads leading into the valley, with the combat power of our army, this battle can be won."
"General Li has a good plan. It's up to you to quietly ask people to find out the way. Don't let the news leak out." Lu Bu said with a smile, but he didn't expect that Li Yan's idea coincided with Jia Xu's.
"General, what about attacking Baibo Valley?" Li Yan asked. He was still unwilling to do something like this that would cause heavy casualties to the soldiers.
"This is a trick to make the Yellow Turban remnants in the valley think that our army is nothing more than this. When General Li attacks Baibo Valley, he must use his momentum and not attack by force. The lives of the soldiers are the most important thing." Lu Bu reminded.
"No." Li Yan cupped his fists and said, feeling somewhat clear in his heart.
The next day, Hao Meng led 6,000 soldiers and set up a formation outside the valley. This was also the first real contact with the battlefield for many soldiers in the new army.
The steps were neat and tidy, and the big flag with the word "bin" fluttering in the wind. Around the flag, the flags of the generals of various ministries were erected. In this way, even if you are in the middle army, you can have a good understanding of the situation of each ministry on the battlefield.
In ancient times, there was a lack of communication conditions, and battlefield command could only rely on messengers to continuously convey orders. In this case, it was particularly important for the commander-in-chief to understand the situation of each department.
After learning that the Bingzhou Army had begun to attack, Mrs. Guo led a group of Yellow Turban generals to the mouth of the valley. Standing on the not-so-wide rampart, Mrs. Guo had a long-lost smile on her face.
Ever since the Bingzhou army approached the Baibo Valley, he had been a little worried about what kind of person Lu Bu was. He must be extraordinary in his crusade against Dong Zhuo to pacify the Huns and wrest the rule of Bingzhou from Zhang Yang.
"General, Lu Bu is brave and reckless. He storms the Baibo Valley. The grain and grass in the valley are enough for a year. I don't believe that he can surround the Baibo Valley for a year." Hu Cai laughed.
Mrs. Guo frowned slightly, always feeling that something was wrong.
After all, the formation of the Bingzhou Army made the Yellow Turban generals in the valley tremble with fear. If they were to encounter such an enemy in the wild, it would be good if three Yellow Turban soldiers could be exchanged for one.
