Eight hundred and twentieth chapters cheat defeat
Hundreds of thousands of troops were fighting, and the logistical pressure on both sides was considerable. Countless people from the Kushan rear who had been forcibly brought food under escort, and under the protection of the army, they transported food and grass to the front line from several routes.
"We have found the opponent's place to store grain." Zhou Yu placed a small flag on the sand table and glanced at the soldiers surrounding Kushan.
"The other side is really careless. There are only a few thousand soldiers protecting such an important granary. With such a small number of troops, if we take action, it will not be difficult to capture them all," Zhuge Liang said.
"How about we just give him the granary?" Zhou Yu asked with interest.
"No, the location of this granary is a bit deep. It is easy to rob it, but we are very likely to be exposed. Moreover, there is a lot of grain and grass stored in the Kushan border. It is probably not a problem to support it for a month or two. It is just that we
Even if the granary is lifted, it won't have much effect." Zhuge Liang shook his head.
"Then what should we do? Intercept the grain transport troops halfway?"
"Well, let's test it out, make a little noise, and see how the Kushan side reacts. If they really send a small group of elites to investigate and protect, we can try their skills. Although the battles between the two sides these days have not been very good.
I've learned a lot, but you still have to fight it yourself to see the problem." Zhuge Liang said.
Nearly ten days have passed since the battle between Guishuang and Shendu. As Zhou Yu had guessed before, Shendu's commander-in-chief Shifadi decisively adopted the tactic of dividing his troops after experiencing two wars. In
While retaining sufficient force threats, they dispatched a large number of infantry to cooperate with a small number of elephant soldiers to continuously attack the Kuishang border from various places, causing the Kushans to have to divide their forces to respond in the same way. However, the huge frontal force pressure made the Guishan
Shuang didn't dare to send out a large number of cavalry easily.
With 3,000 soldiers, dressed in poisonous soldier uniforms, and taught a few commonly used poisonous words on the battlefield, Zhou Yu easily attacked a Kuishang grain transport team. After all, the only people who could be sent to escort grain and grass were miscellaneous soldiers.
And there were only a few hundred people, plus a group of civilians who had no combat power. How could they be an opponent? After Zhou Yu had slightly reduced his combat power, he did not kill them all after driving away these food transport soldiers. Instead, he set fire to them.
Burn all the grain trucks.
...
"The grain transport troops in the rear were robbed by poisonous soldiers here?" When Socrates heard the news, he was stunned: "Aren't the invading legions sent by the other side all on the right wing of our army? How could they suddenly appear in this place?
"
"General, maybe the other party accidentally discovered our food route, so they sent a team to harass us."
"General, this food road is located in a remote area, and it does not transport much food and grass. We don't need to worry about it. After all, Shendu has been dividing its troops recently, so our army has been forced to divide its troops. Now our army does not have enough mobile troops.
It is not appropriate to go to the rescue for this trivial matter, it is better to abandon this food road directly." A general said.
"No, this food channel is small, but it is equally important. If we ignore it and the other party continues to cut off our other food channels, then our food will have problems sooner or later. We should deal with this bandit army as soon as possible. The opponent's number is no more than three
Four thousand, our army only needs to send out one elite soldier."
"Well. Asafa, you will lead five thousand infantry to investigate. Remember, you must be cautious when marching. If you find traces of a large group of enemy troops, don't take risks. Just send someone back to report." Sogertes
Finally after weighing it up.
"No!" Upon hearing the order, Asafa looked excited and quickly agreed and went down to prepare.
When everyone heard this, they all looked at Asafa with envy. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that this was obviously a good job. It was just to rob a small grain road. How many people could Shendu send? With five thousand soldiers.
It's safe to go there and earn some merit for nothing.
After gathering the five thousand elite soldiers under his command, Asafa set off happily, but he didn't know that what was waiting for him was not a poisonous army at all, but a Han army that had been ambushing it for a long time.
...
"Here we come." After spitting out the grass roots in his mouth, Zhou Yujun's scout asked his companions to stay where they were while he quietly sneaked to the rear.
"General, the Kushan Army is indeed here." The scouts who were galloping all the way rushed to the camp where Zhou Yu's army was temporarily stationed and said quickly.
"How many people?" Zhou Yu asked.
"Looking at the formation, it's about five to six thousand."
"Okay, you continue to explore the front and rear sides of this army to see if there are any Kushan ambushes. Anyone passing by must be notified. If there are sporadic Kushan people passing by, all of them will be dealt with directly on the spot.
, absolutely cannot let anyone in." Zhou Yu said.
"promise!"
Five thousand against five thousand, Zhou Yu never thought of letting go in this battle, and he couldn't let it go. Once the real swords and guns started to fight, the characteristics of the Han army would definitely not be concealed. At this time, no one could see it.
of.
"Gong Jin, don't you plan to take action today?"
"Well. When you are in a foreign country, you should be careful in everything. Our death is a small matter, and your majesty's talents must not be delayed. Today, all the people from other countries around us will be wiped out to ensure that everything is safe before it is too late for us to take action." Zhou Yu said.
His eyes focused on a certain point on the map, and a smile appeared on his lips: "What's more, I have already chosen a burial place for them."
The next day, Asafa triumphantly drove on the road with 5,000 infantry. The seemingly loose team still maintained a certain formation and was able to cope with the battle at all times.
"The quality of the Kushan army is not bad." On the hillside, Zhou Yu said calmly, fanning the same feather fan as Zhuge Liang. Then he pointed at the feather fan, and a group of infantry wearing poisonous military uniforms numbered no more than five hundred.
He swayed and walked towards him.
The two armies "encountered" each other by chance. When the "Shen Du" army saw Guishang's army, they immediately turned around and ran away in a panic. It was a complete mess, and many weapons and ammunition were thrown on the ground.
When Asafa saw this "gift", he was slightly stunned, and then he immediately led his soldiers to rush forward with an excited look on his face, and even rode his horse in front to take the lead.
"Gong Jin, this wave of fraud is a bit fake, Gong Jin." Zhuge Liang shook his head slightly when he saw that the army was in chaos on the surface, but still running very fast, with not even a single soldier dying due to trampling.
.
"There are indeed many flaws, but it should be enough to deceive the leader of the Kushan Army. Even if he is wary, it doesn't matter. I had no intention of attacking them in the first place. As long as he leads the army to follow up to the scheduled destination
The location is enough." Zhou Yu said calmly.
"I didn't expect you to love soldiers as much as a son." Zhuge Liang glanced at Zhou Yu and said.
