Hearing Ju's words, the Wen Chou was stunned, thinking that it was also true that he did not know where Zhang Liao would appear next.
"But our army can't just watch and not fight back
Ju Xun replied: "this is true, general Wen, I give you a task, can you accept it?"
Wen Chou hurriedly said, "listen to Ju Jianjun."
"The enemy's intentions are clear." Before he came to the map, he looked at several cities that Zhang Liao had attacked before, and slowly opened his mouth: "the enemy relies on the rapid mobility of cavalry, and is familiar with the terrain and terrain. It is extremely difficult for our army to catch him, but...
" but what? " The clown asked in a hurry.
Ju gave a sigh. Although Yan Liang and Wen Chou were both first-class and first-class generals in the Jizhou army, they were brave enough. Unfortunately, they were not smart enough to be on their own.
"Ha ha, the enemy will certainly not stop here." Ju said with a smile: "general Wen, you just need to lead a team of cavalry, lurking near the county seat where the grain has not been looted. When the enemy forces rush into the city and the general blocks the enemy's back road, is Zhang Liao doomed?"
"It's a brilliant plan to supervise the army!" The clown was overjoyed and turned around and left: "don't worry about jujianjun. I'm going to send troops and send generals to discipline Zhang Liao's thieves, and they will be captured."
"Wait a minute, general Wen."
Ju gave him a hand to stop Wen Chou, who was puzzled and said, "Ju Jianjun, what else do you have to account for?"
"General Qu's first death soldiers were good at fighting cavalry, and the white horse was under general Qu's command." Ju ordered: "general Wen to go, might as well borrow from general Qu's hand first Dengshi a use."
"No need." The clown waved his hand and refused. He snorted, "it's enough for me to lead two thousand cavalry, but Qu Yi should keep it alone."
After that, the clown stepped out of the camp, but Ju gave a sigh again. I don't know whether it is because of the discord between Qu Yi and Wen Chou, or that the clown is too reckless.
Wen Chou was ordered by Ju, and led two thousand iron horses from the army to the outside of gengyang city.
On the fifth day of June, outside the city of gengyang.
Nearly a thousand troopers marched slowly on the wilderness, but the army did not display the flag, because they were ordered to March covertly by Zhang Liao. Zhang Liao, who carried the sickle of huanglonggou, was walking in the middle of the team.
This time, Zhang Liao was the leader of the army, preparing to attack the Zhiyang City, kill the Jizhou army in the city, and burn the grain and grass in the city.
However -
"the whole army stops!"
Hearing Zhang Liao's order, he stopped at the same place and looked at Zhang Liao. He didn't know why Zhang Liao suddenly ordered the whole army to stop.
Zhang Liao drove his horse out of the battle, galloped to the side of the straight road, turned over and dismounted, gently swept away the dust on the ground, found several small shallow pits, and immediately frowned.
"The back team becomes the front team. Don't stay here. Retreat immediately!" Zhang Liao ordered the way.
Although I don't know what happened, he respected Zhang Liao very much, so he immediately turned around and retreated according to Zhang Liao's order.
One side of the deputy general catch up, puzzled way: "general, why our army suddenly retreat?"
"Not far from here lies the enemy, and the cavalry." "Once our army is discovered by the enemy, it will be a fierce battle," Zhang Liao explained
Deputy general Qidao: "general, how did you find the enemy ambush? Why didn't the last general have any clue? "
Zhang Liao's face did not change: "this straight road is trampled on every day. According to the truth, it is extremely solid. But just now, there was dust on the side of the road. After a look at it with some doubts, he found the horse's hoof print."
"Oh?"
"Hum!" Zhang Liao chuckled: "fortunately, it hasn't rained these days, so the horse's hoof print on the ground can be preserved, otherwise, I'm afraid it will be ambushed."
The deputy general said sincerely: "thanks to the general's insightful insight, otherwise, we will be in danger today."
"But we're just going back in vain?"
"Of course not Zhang Liao said: "the enemy ambush here, waiting for the rabbit, we will rush to other places, the army sent to the capital tomb!"
"To order!" The deputy general galloped out, waved his arms and yelled at more than a thousand steps: "the general has orders, the whole army rushes to Beijing mausoleum."
After a thousand steps, he changed his direction and rode in the direction of jingling.
In a wilderness outside the city of gengyang, two thousand steeds under the command of Wen Chou were dismounting and resting, and two thousand war horses were squatting lazily on the ground, enjoying a rare leisure time.
The clown sat on the ground, raised his hand to block the glare of the sun. After a moment, he asked impatiently, "is there any news?"
"Not yet." The scouts on one side replied.
"Hum! When the damned little thief Zhang Liao will come, I will ask Wen Mou to do a good job. " The clown snorted.
"Newspaper!"
Not far away, a scout suddenly galloped his horse, looking rather anxious."At last he's here The clown stood up excitedly and turned to the two thousand steeds and yelled, "all the troops mount!"
"Newspaper!" The scouts galloped forward and held the reins to slow down the horse's speed. He reported: "general, the enemy entered within 20 li of the territory of Zhiyang city. However, the enemy did not know why, and suddenly gave up marching to the city and turned away."
"What?"
The clown was stunned, and then he was furious: "hateful Zhang Liao, how dare to play tricks on me!"
"The whole army mounted and pursued the Bingzhou army!" The ugly man angrily exclaimed.
Seeing this, Deputy General Ma Yan quickly admonished him: "general Wen, how can our army catch up with the enemy more than ten miles away from our army?"
"Shut up!" "Our army is waiting for work with ease, and our horses are full of physical strength. As long as we strive to pursue them, we will certainly be able to intercept and kill the enemy."
Having said that, the clown did not listen to the advice, and directly waved on his horse, and two thousand iron riding horses turned over one after another and galloped out. Ma Yan sighed at the situation and had to drive his horse to follow him.
"General Wen, wait for me."
It can be imagined that Zhang Liao, with his own vigilance and prudence, found the traces of the ambush of the clowns, so he turned around and left. However, Wen Chou was not able to catch up with Zhang Liao's army.
"Damn it!" The angry clown swished his whip and hit him in the air. He said: "Zhang Liao, I will catch up with you sooner or later."
Wen Chou failed to ambush in gengyang city. Instead, Zhang Liao noticed that Zhang Liao led his troops to attack jingling City, killing more than 500 people of Jizhou army again, burning more than 2000 stones of grain and grass, and walking calmly.
However, Zhang Liao was bold and careful, familiar with the terrain of Bingzhou and escaped easily.
