Chapter 338 Countermeasures(1/2)
Han Xin was worried that Shen Yang would not want to fight again. Seeing Li Shang coming, he thought to himself that God would help me.
"The king, the cavalry commander Li is not inferior to the Huns. He will definitely be killed by the Zuo Xian King tonight." Han Xin took advantage of the situation and said anxiously.
Shenyang knew Li Shang's ability, and saw that the troops who were rushing to help were in full swing, so he was unwilling to miss the opportunity.
"It's good. Commander Li was originally a Wei person and knew the terrain well, so he would not be trapped by the Huns."
The entire army quickly sorted out the ground with the moonlight, and the remaining arrows on the enemy's body were collected into the arrow bag. The Huns were only leather armor, and the arrows could be used again. The arrows on the bodies of Henan soldiers' corpses had been destroyed, and it was useless to pull them out.
The two armies united, abandoned their chariots, with cavalry in front and infantry in the back approaching the northwest mountains.
"If you march at full speed, you can reach the mountains in one more hour. It will take nearly two hours." Li Shang said seriously. Without Han Xin's explanation, he knew the benefits of this battle. "If you walk for half an hour, you will encounter a mountain with charcoal color; if you walk for half a house, you will encounter a mountain north of the water, and the mountain with red grass; if you walk for another, you will encounter a vast land, a high place in the mountains... The mountains are strange, with slopes like buffaloes, peaks like beasts, and mountains like phoenixes. The chaotic mountains are mixed in the middle. If you walk for a while, you should be wary of the Huns' attacks on all sides."
Li Shang used his memory to inform Han Xin of all the records. Shen Yang, who was beside him, was gradually frightened.
"Fortunately, Commander Li returns, otherwise our army will not be able to become an enemy." Shen Yang said secretly happy.
Han Xin smiled secretly and won the battle on the flat ground. Shen Yang was convinced but turned to suspicion of the mountains. Perhaps in the future, he would fight against Chu and Yue in the south, and Shen Yang would still be worried about the water battle.
Forget it, today will open your eyes to Shenyang.
Under the night sky, the sound of footsteps and horse hooves were extremely rhythmic. By the ground, the sound was only heard without echoing.
The physical strength of the soldiers gradually recovered in a steady process, and the fighting spirit gradually ignited.
Li Shang's eyes were fixed on his face, and after looking at the road for a long time, his eyes became more and more sour. While rubbing his eyes, Li Shang twisted his neck and suddenly saw Han Xin sitting on his horse and closing his eyes.
"Yes, there will be a big battle waiting for the commander soon." Li Shang chuckled and turned his head to lead the way again.
The bodies of alien races outside Wuhuan City have made Li Shang particularly trust the people around him.
"When will it take?" Shen Yang asked, as the march approached, and a relaxed heart tensed up again.
"Don't be anxious, when you see the mountain, you will reach the mountains. Our army will turn into infantry again and step forward. Everything is not too late." Li Shang comforted.
Shen Yang laughed dryly and nodded. With these two people by his side, he didn't need to work hard. Even if he was fighting, he just needed to hide in the army to stabilize the morale of the army.
"If the Huns retreat this time, Commander Li can welcome Guangye to this place. At that time, with Guangye’s help, it is not impossible to attack Qin again." Shen Yang flattered.
"The king is too good." Li Shang shook his head, "My brother Lantian Guan lost to Ziying. Ziying has many tricks. If you want to attack Qin, you still need to rely on Commander Han."
"I have heard of the previous incident, but Ziying can only take out the beautiful jade." Shen Yang didn't care at all, "What's more, if Ziying was really scheming, he would not have been plotted by Mr. Kuai. His wife and Ling Fen were both behind Qin."
"This...hahaha."
The countries knew about this early, even if Shen Yang mentioned this matter again, they couldn't help laughing at him.
"No!!" Han Xin suddenly opened his eyes and shouted loudly, turned his head and looked around in the wilderness.
"Grand Commander, where is it wrong?" Li Shang leaned closer and asked.
Han Xin rubbed his eyelids and finally noticed something abnormal in the horizon.
"Commander Li Zeng Yan's army will take two hours, why are there still no mountains?!" Han Xin was shocked and his tone was not good.
"There is no mistake in what I have recorded below. What's more, our army came along the horse's hooves of the Huns. Maybe... the army was tired and delayed for a while." Li Shang frowned. At this moment, when Han Xin asked, he also realized that it seemed that the march had been too long.
Logically speaking, they should be in the mountains...
"Is it..."
Li Shang followed Han Xin's gaze and saw that the sky was faintly blocked by black, as if layers of mountains were layered.
"General Li once said that there is a mountain between the open land, why is there no trace?" Shen Yang had not thought it clearly.
"Retreat, withdraw your troops!!" Han Xin turned his horse's head and shouted.
"Retreat?" Shen Yang couldn't figure out, "Our army marched for two hours and did not see the enemy. Why..."
The soldiers behind him were all confused and without waiting for everyone to obey. Behind the army, the sound of horse hooves resounding throughout the night suddenly erupted, and the rain of arrows fell, and the Henan infantry wailed and came forward to dodge.
"Han Xin! You lost!! No matter how many people you bring today, you will be buried here!"
The bow strings in Zuo Xianwang's hand were full and the arrows were constantly shot out.
The defeated and rested the Hun cavalry were full of energy and chased and shot the enemy like prey.
Suddenly appeared behind the enemy, with a ferocious face and shouting that the Henan soldiers could not understand. The infantry had no way to guard for a while and had to flee.
The Henan army was originally cavalry in front, and there was room for confrontation when encountering the enemy, but the cavalry was at the bottom of the road and separated by panicked infantry, so they could not turn back and fight again.
"Why did this come to this point?! How could the Huns be limited to the army?!" Shen Yang was panicked and kept asking questions.
"Our army should be in the mountains. The traces of horse hooves were deliberately left by the Huns forward. Zuo Xianwang... had dug the mountains at the front." Li Shang sighed regretfully, regretting that he had not seen through it.
"Diu...Diu Ping? Did King Zuo Xian know that he would be defeated in the previous battle?" Shen Yang looked back at King Zuo Xian who was shooting and killing behind the army, and was full of fear.
"The army is not good, so you cannot fight. The whole army advances quickly and defends the enemy in the mountains!!" Han Xin roared.
"Enter the mountain, quickly enter the mountain!"
Shen Yang echoed loudly, and the sound of the moment had echoed. Everyone knew that the mountains were not far away, and they braved the rain of arrows and ran away desperately.
In less than half a moment, a grinding-shaped mountain was approaching.
The cavalry dismounted and fled along the mountain road, while guarding against the possible Hun ambush in the mountains. Behind them, most of the infantry surviving the former war had been lost...
When all the troops went up the mountain, the fighting spirit along the way seemed to be splashed by a can of water. They could only look at the pursuit soldiers at the foot of the mountain with the steep rocks and half-green and half-yellow branches.
Black outlines are densely covered at the foot of the mountain.
The Hun soldiers held short spears and inserted the body of Henan soldiers, waving their arms to shout provocation.
Shen Yang saw it and was angry and afraid. He was grateful to Li Shang on the way, but now he could only complain in his heart why he appeared at this moment.
If Li Shang did not come, the army would not chase after him, nor would it be the trick of the Huns.
"Report!" The soldiers patrolling the mountains ran back, "There were no ambushes in the mountains, but...there are all surrounded by the Huns."
After gritting his teeth and giving back, the soldier did not forget to glar at Han Xin and marching in vain, and finally he was plotted against Han Xin.
"Go down." Shen Yang leaned against the rocks and waved his hand powerlessly, "Ha... The Huns were seeking a battle at night. After defeating, they expected that our army would chase after them at night and miss the hour. They dug up the mountains early to lure our army into the encirclement. It seems that in the previous bloody battle, regardless of the outcome, the Xiongnu Zuo Xianwang had a backup plan, and they were definitely not an ordinary person."
Shen Yang guessed something similar earlier, but there was no countermeasure at that time, so he tried his best to stop Han Xin. Now that "the dream comes true", Shen Yang is completely desperate.
Seeing that Han Xin was in a dilemma, Li Shang rescued the siege, "I think about it now, as the king said. However, the Huns were not digging up all the mountains, but all led our army to walk on a mountainless road, and then... to level several small hills."
"Haha...what is the difference? Still trapped in the mountains." Shen Yang smiled bitterly, "The mountains in the north are separated from water sources and have no support to make up for it. If the enemy is faced in the mountains, I believe that Commander Han has the law to defeat the enemy. He can attack the lonely mountain, and there is no chance of winning."
Shenyang thought he was in a situation of death, but gradually ignored the morale of the army and blocked the tongue.
"The King is worried too much." Han Xin, who had been silent for a long time, spoke.
Shenyang, Li Shang and the soldiers around him all came over, waiting for Han Xin's strange plan.
"Now it seems that King Zuo Xian must have a way to surround our army, but he did not want to kill in vain. He wanted to see our army starve to death in the mountains to warn other countries. He would not leave any room for our army." Han Xin analyzed.
Shen Yang was choked and thought he had a way out, so he tried to persuade him to wait for death.
"Is there really no way to do it?" Li Shang asked frowned. Looking at Han Xin's face, he didn't look like someone who knew he would die.
"There is nothing to do here." Han Xin hugged his shoulders and shook his head. The shouting at the foot of the mountain made him feel upset.
The soldiers beside him suddenly felt cold as ice. Han Xin was an unsubmissive general in their hearts. He wanted to kill him, but he had to admit Han Xin's ability. If Han Xin could not do so, he would have to wait to die.
"There must be a way to survive!" Li Shang was unwilling to accept it. "Although Commander Han was familiar with the military strategy, it was a plan for one person. The King of Wei pretended to attack Qin and conquered dozens of cities in Qin until Xiangyang. Commander Han was not as good as thinking. What would it be if someone else was trapped in this place?"
Li Shang had no other plan, so he could only press all his hopes on Han Xin.
"Conquering dozens of cities in a row? What's the point?" Han Xin squatted on the ground, stretched out his hand to draw a chessboard. "A chess game circulating in Qin, which is said to be made by Ziying. The forces of both sides are equal, with chariots, cavalry, soldiers... as their sons, cities, and mountains are the intersections.
Even though the Qin State had many cities and the starting lineup was weaker than that of the Western Wei Dynasty, the King of Wei only needed to mobilize chess pieces, open and close together, win the victory, or erode Qin, and approach the central palace. It was not considered a skill. Marines were like chess, and even if the generals were taking different paths, their inner causes were the same. What's more, the man who "played chess" with King of Wei was Chen Ping, who did not understand the military strategy. The two of them played a bad game. Wei Jiao was also a chess game, but he wanted to find Wei Zhe, but he lost all the game.
If the King of Wei had come here, there would be no other plan."
He was still able to talk about military tactics when he was executed. Li Shang didn't know whether to scold or boast about this commander.
"According to the words of the commander, what is the name of our army's power?" Li Shang asked casually.
"It should be...sleeping?"
["Ah~ I was trapped! This book won the away, haha..."
On the Huashan Mountain, Xun Jin finally figured out the trick of playing chess and shook his head to demonstrate to Wang Zhou opposite him.
"It may not be a winner, I will try my best if I can get the chance." Wang Zhou lay beside the chessboard, frowned and thought deeply.
"What else can you win? Your 'general' is separated from your original position and is separated by a 'horse'. You can't be left or lower." Xun Jin fiddled with his fingers and smiled, "The unmoved general will be ineffective and starved to death."
"If you don't move, you'll move your horse." Wang Zhou said, transferring his horse back to the rescue in an attempt to break the dead end.
"Tsk tsk~ useless." Xun Jin also adjusted the horse, and the two horses were connected in the character "Ri". "How can a single horse break the continuous horse? This is a guest who can kill a single horse first and then trap him!"
"Then try."
Xun Jin smiled wildly, and the two of them were fighting each other not far away.
】
At the foot of the millstone mountain, the Huns had killed the enemy's horses and roasted them for food by making fire. The planning over the past few months finally came to fruition. This roasting can not only fill the stomach, but also celebrate the victory.
The fragrance slowly drifted to the mountain. Henan soldiers who were cold at night asked about the smell of meat. They were hungry and cold, and they were reluctant to make fearless struggles, so they couldn't help but want to commit suicide to escape.
