Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 891: Zhang Xiu is fooled

"General, according to the news from the scouts, the enemy general Ji Ling, who was escorting the grain and grass transportation, was addicted to alcohol. After drinking for the past two days, he beat and scolded the soldiers." The deputy general said in a low voice.

Zhang Xiu asked curiously: "I have heard that the Marquis of Jin has very strict requirements for his generals. How could he do this at such an important time?"

The deputy general said: "Perhaps this general thinks that escorting grain and grass is an easy job and doesn't take it seriously. Moreover, Ji Ling is a fierce general under Yuan Shu. After joining the Marquis of Jin, he was only responsible for escorting grain and grass. He must be dissatisfied."

Zhang Xiu nodded. This kind of thing is very common in the army. Escorting grain and grass is indeed a boring job. It is okay for the general in charge to relax. As long as the grain and grass can be escorted to the army, the mission has been completed.

"Even so, we must inquire about the enemy's information in detail, so as not to fall into the enemy's tricks." Zhang Xiu said cautiously.

"General Gao, the terrain ahead is steep. If this cavalry chooses to ambush here, it will be extremely detrimental to our army." Ji Ling said with a red face. In order to make Zhang Xiu and others relax their vigilance, he did drink a lot.

Less wine.

Gao Shun nodded and said: "But if we don't move forward, it will definitely arouse the enemy's suspicion. The Lord has sent news that the general of this cavalry is most likely Zhang Xiu."

"What about Zhang Xiu? Is the Xiliang army still as elite as before?" Ji Ling said with some disdain. According to his idea, he just led his soldiers to kill him. Why should he be so cautious? What's more, there are many people in the army escorting food and grass.

Beings like those in the trapped camp who can fight against the cavalry can eliminate this cavalry with a little planning, but now they want Lu Bu to send cavalry to help.

As if seeing the dissatisfaction in Ji Ling's tone, Gao Shun explained: "General Ji, we do have the strength to defeat this cavalry. If Zhang Xiu sees something wrong and leads the cavalry to escape, what should we do? General Huang

He led the cavalry to inquire about the situation in Gaoling. Zhang Xiu dared to lead the cavalry into battle and captured Sun Ning alive. What the lord wanted was to completely defeat this cavalry and make them useless on the battlefield. Otherwise, if they escaped, it would be a big blow to our army.

It has a great restraining effect.”

Ji Ling said: "General Gao's words are correct, but I, the general, was a little short-sighted just now."

Just as Ji Ling said, Zhang Xiu was hiding in front waiting for the arrival of Ji Ling and others. The terrain here is indeed suitable for the cavalry to charge. From a high position, the combat effectiveness of the cavalry will be greatly improved. Originally, the cavalry was on the battlefield.

The king now has the advantage of the terrain, which is more than enough to deal with the army escorting the grain and grass.

"General, the Bingzhou Army is only one mile away from us," the deputy general said.

"Command, generals, be ready." Zhang Xiu said. The distance of one mile can be reached very quickly at the speed of the cavalry. Even if the Bingzhou Army discovers something is wrong at this time, it will be difficult for them to respond quickly. The cavalry can only rely on

The momentum of the charge can frighten the infantry.

Gao Shun led the soldiers in the trapped camp at the forefront. All Zhang Xiu could rely on was the cavalry, and Zhang Xiu must have known the importance of food and grass. Even if he encountered resistance from the trapped camp, he would not retreat easily.

Once he comes, it will become easier to entangle Zhang Xiu's subordinates.

"Send the order, rest here while the scouts investigate the surrounding news." Ji Ling, the leader of the war horse, shouted.

The convoy escorting the grain, grass and baggage slowly stopped a mile away from the place where Zhang Xiu and others were ambushing. Although it was for a rest, the soldiers in the army were ready. Ji Ling also inspected the circle and gave explanations before proceeding.

Relax.

Seeing that Ji Ling actually ordered the army to rest here, Zhang Xiu ordered: "Kill!" If Ji Ling sent scouts to inquire about the news in detail, they would not be able to escape the scouts' detection even if they were hiding very covertly.

This is the time when the Bingzhou Army is most relaxed. When the soldiers are on their way and hear the order to rest, they will feel relaxed. If the cavalry suddenly comes to kill them at this time, it will have a great impact on them.

Thousands of cavalry hidden in the dark, led by Zhang Xiu, rumbled toward the Bingzhou Army. For a moment, dust and smoke rose everywhere.

Gao Shun, who was at the front of the battle formation, also noticed this scene and shouted: "The enemy is attacking!"

The soldiers trapped in the camp gathered around Gao Shun at an extremely fast speed, with their huge shields facing the direction of the cavalry. The archers also put arrows on their bows, waiting for Gao Shun's order.

The terrain where Zhang Xiu was ambushing was relatively high, and the cavalry charges were much faster than before. This made some Xiliang Army cavalry even more excited. The ones escorting the grain, grass and baggage were just some infantry, and with the stirrups,

They are easier to control on horseback and can freely perform some actions that are usually difficult to achieve.

Among the Chinese army, Ji Ling ordered the soldiers to get ready, and the civilians responsible for escorting the grain and grass quickly gathered the grain carts together under Ji Ling's order. If the cavalry could have grain carts as a defense when charging,

If so, there will be an additional layer of effective security protection.

The cavalry rumbling in, the first thing they encountered was the trapped camp.

Gao Shun swung the sword forward with all his strength and shouted: "Archer!"

It was not considered a dense rain of arrows, but it caused the loss of twenty cavalrymen. Such shooting efficiency was definitely beyond the reach of ordinary archer teams. When the cavalry was running fast, the archers wanted to shoot

is a great test.

The rain of arrows that fell into the camp also aroused the blood in the hearts of the Xiliang army. They are cavalry, how can they be bullied by some infantry. Later, they will use the butcher knife in their hands to tell these infantry what cavalry is.

Zhang Xiu frowned slightly after noticing the situation ahead. Judging from the reaction of the Bingzhou Army, it was obvious that they were prepared. Otherwise, it would be impossible to respond so quickly to the charge of his own soldiers. But the most important thing at the moment is

How to defeat this Bingzhou army and burn their food and grass.

It seems that the Bingzhou Army at the front did not rely on grain trucks in order to give the army at the rear enough time to respond. When the cavalry raided, the most troublesome thing was the team escorting the grain and grass. If the enemy army could not be defeated,

It is very difficult to burn the grain and grass, but if you charge forward, the grain cart can withstand the charge of the cavalry. It is quite painful, and the trapped camp will be exposed to the charge of the cavalry.

Although the terrain where the trapped camp is located is slightly higher, it is nothing to the cavalry who have already fully picked up their speed.

The cavalry of the Xiliang Army began to fight with the trapped camp. The terrain was slightly higher, which slowed down the horses a little.
