Wei Shunzhi laughed: "Brother Huaisu, you are really good at it. Is this the art of war that Brother Jinu taught you?"
Liu Huaisu waved his hand proudly: "I haven't spent much time with my eldest brother in these years, but I have lived and ate with Dao Gui in the army all day long. When I have nothing to do, I have been studying the battles that my eldest brother fought. I have seen a lot.
I gradually realized various methods of using war. After my eldest brother came back from the grassland last time, he also discussed the art of war with us brothers all day long. Among brothers, nephews, Daogui and I are the most accomplished. If not for this, he
How can you trust me to carry out such an important task this time?"
Wei Shunzhi laughed: "I'm just telling you, let my brother go this time and let you, Brother Huaisu, be the coach."
Liu Huaisu smiled slightly: "Because your brother is a founding figure in Beijing, a general in the Beifu, and now the governor of Yuzhou. He is very famous. There are too many people in Jingzhou who know him. As long as he moves, Huan Zhen will definitely get the news and take precautions.
So I led Brother Ashou's troops from Jiangzhou, acted secretly, and then joined your Jiangxia garrison to advance. Huan Zhen didn't take us seriously, so naturally he wouldn't take precautions. Look, we suddenly appeared this time
Here, he didn't expect it at all."
Wei Shunzhi nodded: "Yes, but he didn't attack us directly because we were not famous. This shows that this person is still a veteran on the battlefield and has calm judgment. Now he is taking the initiative to retreat and lure us to pursue us. That is to return the favor.
They hold out the hope of defeating us and opening up the passage to Jiangxia."
Liu Huaisu sneered and said: "The way to be a general is to know the enemy. If you don't know the enemy and only know yourself, you will fall into two extremes: arrogance or panic. Now Huan Zhen is panic ahead and arrogance behind, so
Waiting for us to be fooled, we have to take advantage of his mentality and set up a trap in turn. Shunzi, order each team, don't resist Huan Zhen's first assault with all your strength, let him in, and wait until all his cavalry are trapped in the car.
After the formation, we are surrounded on all sides. You lead your troops to block the attack of the Chu army behind. I will personally deal with Huan Zhen inside. As long as Huan Zhen dies, the remaining Chu army will inevitably be defeated. At that time, we will let go and chase.
It’s time to kill the enemy!”
Wei Shunzhi laughed: "Then you have to hurry up. If Brother Xile and the others catch up, the credit may not be ours."
Liu Huaisu frowned slightly and sighed: "This time, eldest brother has a secret order. I didn't want to tell it at first, but when you mention it like this, I think it's better to execute it. Brother said that when the overall situation is decided, try your best to
Let Huan Zhen go and rush to the direction of Brother Xile."
Wei Shunzhi opened his eyes wide: "Why is this?"
Liu Huaisu gritted his teeth: "Brother didn't say anything, but I gave this military order. I think that probably because we sent troops secretly without notifying Xile, Xile felt that we were taking his credit, so we killed Huan in the end.
Liu Xi must be happy with his great contribution."
Wei Shunzhi frowned: "This is too unfair. We are fighting hard here, but in the end we have to give away our great achievements. Why?"
Liu Huaisu sighed: "That's all, our dispatch this time is all eldest brother's plan. Just follow his instructions. Now Beifu has become a situation where eldest brother and Xile are competing for credit. We brothers
, try not to cause any trouble for them."
Wei Shunzhi nodded: "However, the battle is fierce and dangerous, with thousands of troops and horses. It is impossible for us to tell the soldiers that Huan Zhen is not allowed to kill."
Liu Huaisu's eyes flashed coldly: "That's natural, but if Huan Zhen breaks out, we don't want to pursue him. By the way, after the car formation is encircled, let the whole army shout that Huan Zhen has been killed, regardless of whether he is really dead.
It is better to fake death and shake the morale of the Chu troops first. This is called capturing the thief and capturing the king!"
Having said this, Liu Huaisu put on his helmet, put on his mask, and galloped towards the left army: "Shunzi, Comrade Jingba, the strength is with you and me."
Wei Shunzhi smiled slightly, put on his mask as well, and ran in the opposite direction: "Comrade Jingba."
Chu army, direction of the Chinese army.
Huan Zhen had a smile on his face. As he retreated, he looked at the Beifu Army formation on the opposite side that had begun to move. The heavy infantrymen on both wings were still dragging their heavy armor and holding up their big shields, slowly moving forward.
They were moving slowly, but the more than two hundred carts in the center had already unlocked the iron locks connecting the carts. The light infantrymen behind pushed the carts that had just been unlocked and ran forward. They were originally dragged at the rear of the formation.
Instead, the car formation at the end of the car line was moving at a fast pace. Soon, it passed the heavy infantry on both wings and was about to reach the front. A general's flag with the word "Liu" was placed behind the car line and followed it forward.
Huan Zhen's deputy general Wen Kai came over and said with a smile: "Your Majesty (Huan Zhen had driven away Sima Xiuzhi before and when he captured Jiangling for the second time, he proclaimed himself emperor and was also the third monarch of the Huan Chu regime), look.
Look, the Jingba people have indeed been fooled. This Liu Huaisu is not Liu Yu after all. We pretended to be defeated and ran away, but he took it seriously and now wants to come up and grab the fruit to eat."
Huan Zhen nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, this is the weakness of the Eight Thieves in Beijing, that is, they are greedy for power and profit. This has not changed for many years. In the past, the battle of Yecheng was about Liu Laozhi robbing baggage and grabbing merit, and Murong Chui was killed.
He Wuji's plan a few months ago was also greedy for merit and he was defeated by me. Now, can Liu Huaisu be stronger than Liu Laozhi and He Wuji? Liu Yu is nepotistic and wants to rob and destroy Liu Yi.
This is my first great achievement in Chu. This is a good opportunity given to us by God. Send an order to the rear army to throw away baggage and armor as much as possible, and make a show of hastening to escape. Make me look more handsome, and let my Chinese soldiers
Drag them to the back, scatter them to both sides, let me bring down the flag, let me let the soldiers run around, in short, in one sentence, the more realistic the acting, the better!"
Wen Kai opened his eyes wide: "But if we let the soldiers of the Chinese army perform a show, then we might not have enough troops to launch an assault. Will it..."
Huan Zhen waved his hand: "Soldiers are more expensive than more. The Jingba bandits' chariot formation is where their main general is. Now break away from the two wings and rush to the front. I only need these three hundred cavalry to overwhelm them. Let the infantry follow my cavalry."
Just follow up with the assault troops. As soon as my cavalry comes out, we will follow and chase them. Our target is the enemy's commanding flag. Once the commanding flag falls, we will pursue them across the board!"
Having said this, he put on his mask, raised his horse, looked around, looked at the hundreds of knights around him, and said with a smile: "Young men, follow me to gain wealth. In this battle, we will teach the children of the Eighth Route Army how to do it."
fight!"
On the other side, in the Heyi heavy infantry phalanx on the right wing, Liu Huaisu watched the infantry on the left and right sides disperse, while hundreds of cavalry rushed out like wild dragons, led by a general with a black horse and silver spear, like the reincarnation of the god of death, but
Wasn't it Huan Zhen? A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "I've finally waited for you, brothers. When wealth comes, come and take it with me!"
