Jiangcheng Camp, Dongyuan Gate.
Wu Fuzhi straddled his horse and raised his halberd, high-spirited. Behind him, groups of elite Chu soldiers from the Huben camp were running back and forth in the camp, forming formations. Hundreds of sergeants were hurriedly moving in front of more than a dozen camp gates.
, those horizontal horses and deer antlers are preparing for the army to attack.
Diao Hong's face was still white and pink, and under the sunlight, his white face was glowing, but a few streaks of sweat dripping down his forehead and temples broke out gullies, revealing his original sallow complexion.
It looked particularly funny, with a smile on his face: "General Wu, you have been waiting for me. As long as Da Chu's imperial army arrives, why does Liu Yu care about it?!"
Wu Fuzhi said coldly: "Diao Sima, what did you do? Three thousand soldiers and horses, not newly recruited civilians, actually fled in a hurry when they saw Liu Yu. This is simply a shame for our great Chu.
At the court, some ministers have proposed that you should be subject to military law. I advise you to think carefully about how to apologize to His Majesty."
Diao Hong was so frightened that he almost rolled off his horse and said quickly: "General Wu, this is not the fault of your humble position. General Fujun is the commander-in-chief of the first army. He was harmed by the rebels of Jingba, so our troops have no fighting spirit. Besides,
, Besides, when we received the intelligence, we said there were only dozens of rebels, but when we arrived, we found that the entire Jingkou was in the hands of the rebels, and the head of the commander was hanging on the top of the city. His humble position really couldn't control the soldiers.
Please be sure to say a few kind words to His Majesty, and you will definitely not forget this kindness after taking up your humble position."
Wu Fuzhi rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Okay, Diao Sima, I have been here in Jiankang for more than a year, and you have been quite good to me. You also gave me two houses in Jingkou. This friendship, my surname
Wu will never forget it. This time I am taking the lead. On the one hand, I want to make meritorious service to the thieves, and on the other hand, I also give you a chance to serve in front of the army and redeem your merits."
Diao Hong's eyes lit up and he said quickly: "How do you say this?"
Wu Fu pointed to the front of the camp, about three to four hundred paces away, where they were galloping back and forth, looking into the camp from time to time. There were also some scout cavalry drawing something on some silk with charcoal sticks, and said: "Beijing
The Eight Thieves sent scouts to explore our reality. Their main force may be nearby. We are guarding here, and every move is under the control of the enemy. However, the more than ten groups of probing horses you sent out before did not return any results. Here is their
This territory, we can only eliminate this passivity by taking the initiative. Diao Sima, you have been stationed here for a year. Before, you were also a powerful local man. Now you have more than 500 subordinates, who are just in front, leading our army."
Diao Hong was so frightened that the white powder fell off his face, and he quickly cried and begged: "General Wu, please don't embarrass me. The Jingba thieves are old thieves who have fought for many years. More than half of my men are the original Xifu soldiers.
There are also some servants of my Diao family. They usually catch thieves and small thieves, but against the eight thieves in Beijing, isn't that just sending a sheep into the tiger's mouth? Please spare me!"
Wu Fuzhi's face darkened: "What are you afraid of? I have asked you to be the leader, which means that my troops will follow you, up to one mile away. Even if Liu Yu suddenly appears, you will retreat.
, this general will naturally protect you. Of course, if you and your men dare to fight, can fight, and make military exploits, you will be heavily rewarded."
Diao Hong gritted his teeth: "Liu Yu is full of tricks in fighting. If he sees me as the vanguard, he will definitely launch an attack. My men were frightened by this thief outside Jingkou City, and they haven't returned yet."
After thinking about it, if we give him such a charge, everything will definitely collapse. It will be a shame for more than five hundred of us to die by then, but if we mess up the general's army, it will be troublesome."
Wu Fuzhi sneered and said, "Is it possible that this general can't think of what you want? I have two hundred cavalry here, all equipped with armor and cavalry. If Liu Yu really appears, then you can withdraw your troops and retreat from two sides of our army's formation."
Retreat to the rear, my armored cavalry will counter-attack the enemy, and then the army will follow up, so you won't suffer any losses."
Diao Hong's eyes lit up: "Is it true that the general will send cavalry to protect me?"
Wu Fuzhi nodded: "This is the tactics of our Jingzhou Army. We send out induction troops on the front line, and armored cavalry are deployed on both sides of the frontline troops. If the enemy is strong, they will induce the vanguard to fight and retreat. The armored cavalry will attack in a roundabout way, and then
The army followed up to cover up the killing, and no one could stop our combined attack of infantry and cavalry. Even the elite soldiers of the Jin Dynasty, such as Yin Zhongkan, Yang Quanqi, and Sima Shangzhi, could barely block the two rounds of armored cavalry's charge at most, and dealt a heavy blow to the rear.
The armored halberd formation's forced advance is powerless. I really want to see if Liu Yu's Beifu army has the ability to stop my attack."
Diao Hong nodded quickly and said: "General Wu is invincible. Liu Yu and those Jingba are no match for me. I have full confidence in you. But, just for this, in order to be more sure, should we contact General Huangfu and others behind?"
General Hu, would you like them to join us quickly and march at the same time?"
Wu Fuzhi said angrily: "Diao Sima, what are you thinking about? Liu Yu has at most a few thousand party members, with no food and no weapons. Look at these scout cavalry, they can only ride a single horse."
How can they fight with pack horses and no armor? My army might have scared them away in the past. If all three armies arrived, I'm afraid they would just cross the river to Guangling without even fighting, and then block the Guazhou Ferry.
, and turned north to raid the six counties in Jiangbei, then we could only look at the river and sigh. Now, before they have time to escape, the family members of the rebels in Beifu are still here and have not gone to Jiangbei, so we hurried here, and then passed
If they run away in two days, will you be responsible?"
Diao Hong quickly slapped himself hard, which caused white powder to scatter in all directions. In the white smoke, he repeatedly said: "I am stupid for my humble position, and I am talking nonsense again. However, it is just the ward general Huangfu and
General Hu tells them to come and meet up early so that they can take care of each other, that's okay."
Wu Fuzhi sighed: "Old Diao, I told you the truth. The one who said in the court that they wanted to take your head as a sacrifice to punish the French army was General Huangfu. If I hadn't interceded for you, I'm afraid you
I arrived at the camp first and had you beheaded a long time ago. For the sake of you giving me two houses, I kindly gave you a chance. If you don’t appreciate it and work with me to make new achievements and atone for your sins, then go and call me now.
Well, they will attack on their own."
Diao Hong opened his eyes wide: "What, he wants to kill me? I, I also gave him two houses."
