Chapter 712 Liu Huangshu secretly leaves the customs
Chapter 712 Uncle Liu Huang secretly left the pass
The night wind blew through the pine forest, making a whining sound.
If there is a timid person who is alone here in the night and hears such a sound, which is like the howling of ghosts and wolves, he will definitely be frightened and trembled.
However, such news is not good for Liu Cheng and Liu Cheng's subordinates.
There is no impact at all.
Among the thousands of troops, there are people who have been fighting all the way. Such movements are really a bit childish for him.
Behind Liu Cheng, there are many people.
These are the elite soldiers under his command.
However, at this time, they looked different from how they were dressed before.
At this time, including Liu Cheng, they were dressed like civilian husbands.
At this time, the news that everyone knew was that Liu Cheng was still staying in Guanzhong with his troops and horses, and had not sent out any troops.
But in fact, the real Liu Cheng had already arrived in Luoyang at this time.
It's just that his current status on the surface is that of a civilian husband.
The troops and horses have not moved, but the food and grass go first.
Before the army took much action, there were already civilians coming out of the pass.
Transporting some grain, grass, and other supplies, they rolled all the way to Luoyang.
However, these civilian husbands may appear to be civilian husbands, but in fact they are not.
Only a small number of people are true civil servants.
The rest are basically elite soldiers under Liu Cheng's command.
In war, sometimes it is so unexpected and unprepared.
According to the strength of Liu Cheng's troops and the various chaos at Yuan Shu's place now.
Liu Cheng came out from Guanzhong with his troops and horses in a swaggering manner, and faced Yuan Shu with an upright army. Yuan Shu was definitely no match.
There is no need to do this.
But when a lion fights a rabbit, he still needs all his strength.
Sometimes, you cannot underestimate your opponent.
This will prevent capsizing in the ditch.
Don't be careless or proud, which ultimately leads to unnecessary casualties and failures.
This kind of ending is what Liu Cheng doesn't want to see.
Things like pride basically never appeared in Liu Cheng.
Because he knows that in history, there are too many people who capsized at the last critical moment because they were too proud.
An arrogant soldier will be defeated!
He didn't want something like this to happen to him.
Now is the first battle out of seclusion.
Although Zhang Liao and others have already started fighting in Jingzhou, and they are doing very well.
But he still couldn't relax in any way.
This was a battle that he started after he had been dormant for a long time, and after becoming the King of Han, he personally led his troops to fight.
Moreover, the opponent is Yuan Shu, a rebellious minister and traitor.
Under such circumstances, no matter what, the battle must be fought beautifully.
As for laying out his troops and horses, he went to attack Yuan Shu.
It can indeed be pushed flat.
However, Yuan Shu has been preparing for a long time.
If it's true, he just came here in an upright manner.
When the time comes, he will definitely be stopped by his troops.
In this case, the military front will not be so prosperous.
This is somewhat different from the result Liu Cheng wanted.
And in that case, it would take too long.
If one thing is not done well, it can easily lead to many casualties.
The war was prolonged too long.
This is what Liu Cheng doesn't want to see.
So in the end, I chose this method.
It was said that he stayed in Guanzhong secretly, but in fact, after staying for a period of time, he secretly disguised himself and led some elite soldiers all the way to Luoyang.
At this time, Luoyang had already lost its former prosperity compared with the previous time.
The capital city of the Han Dynasty was now in a lot of desolation.
The broad avenue looked dilapidated and overgrown with weeds.
The remaining buildings and the patterns on some ruined walls tell people about the prosperity and glory of the past.
The sound of the night owl chirping sounded, adding a lot of desolation to the world.
It makes people feel the ruthless rise and fall and the vicissitudes of the world.
Liu Cheng took his troops and horses and temporarily stationed here.
In the darkness, there are some fires lit and stars dotted.
Liu Cheng sat here, drinking hot soup, soaking dry pancakes, and eating together with the soldiers.
Liu Cheng's identity has undergone a huge change by this time.
And in addition to eating and drinking on weekdays, I also like to cook some delicious food.
But when will it be divided?
After he went to the battlefield, he ate the same food as the soldiers.
I will never start a small stove by myself.
I can eat delicious food on weekdays, but after arriving on the battlefield, I can also eat simple meals, dry biscuits and so on.
After all the soldiers had eaten, they began to rest.
Naturally, there are some soldiers and horses patrolling here.
Liu Cheng did not sleep.
After reading some information here and discussing some matters with Zhao Yun and others, he finally fell asleep...
The next day, when it was dark, I had already started cooking.
After it got light, everyone had their meal and started to move on.
Go all the way east and gradually leave Luoyang.
Taking the food, grass and baggage with them, they arrived at Sishui Pass.
Coming to Sishui Pass again, Liu Cheng felt a lot of emotions in his heart.
After a few years, I came again today to the place that made him famous all over the world.
In the beginning, it was here that he overpowered many of the Kanto princes.
This made him famous all over the world.
It can be said that the foundation of many of my things was laid here in Sishui Pass.
Coming here again at this time, Liu Cheng felt quite emotional.
The young man back then has now become the most powerful person in the entire Han Dynasty.
The most powerful person.
The young pig-killer who was laughed at by others back then.
By this time, it has already shocked the entire Han Dynasty!
No one can easily ignore his voice anymore.
Even if he speaks in a quiet voice at this time, others will not ask him to amplify his voice.
Instead, I will choose to listen carefully...
Compared with before, Sishui Pass is a bit dilapidated.
There are also many more historical vicissitudes.
Liu Cheng stood here and watched for a while, then asked some people to stay and guard Sishui Pass.
And he took the rest of the soldiers who were disguised as civilians, along with food, grass and baggage, all the way out of Sishui Pass and headed east.
Close to Nanyang and other places...
Many things have pros and cons.
It's impossible to be perfect.
For example, Liu Cheng followed Jia Xu's suggestion and stopped his troops in Guanzhong for a while before starting to go out.
This move is indeed true. It caused chaos under Yuan Shu's rule without spending a single soldier, and consumed a lot of his combat power.
But it also delayed the fighter plane to a certain extent.
Let Yuan Shu be more prepared here.
Under Yuan Shu's rule, various fortifications were built at many key places in the area facing Luoyang.
It was used to defend against Liu Cheng's troops.
In fact, there are quite a few of these and they were built before.
After all, many places under Yuan Shu's command will bear the brunt once Liu Chengdong comes out.
So as early as the beginning, he was prepared for this.
However, those precautions are not too much.
After Liu Cheng spread the word to the world and called on the people of the world to attack Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu began to make every effort to build fortifications at this key place bordering Luoyang.
Used to prevent Liu Chengdong from leaving.
There are a large number of soldiers and horses gathered in places such as Tuerling and Laoyekou.
A camp was built.
Yuan Shu's general Ji Ling was appointed as the General of Zhenxi.
There are no less than 30,000 soldiers and horses gathered here at Tu'erling.
It is said to be 30,000, but with the mobilized civilians, etc., the number will be much higher.
Known as an army of 150,000...
Liu Cheng already knew about this kind of news.
After all, his Jin Yiwei is still very good overall.
At this time, Liu Cheng, after leading his troops out east, aimed at Tu'erling where Ji Ling was stationed.
Now, the most capable general under Yuan Shu is Ji Ling.
Ji Ling is a man with good martial arts skills.
He is a good general.
Moreover, the Tuer Ridge it guards is also of great strategic value.
If we can't capture Tu'erling here.
So in the future, if you want to drive straight into Liu Cheng's place, you will definitely have a lot of difficulties.
Liu Cheng led his soldiers dressed as civilians and a large amount of food and grass to a place fifty miles away from Tu'er Ridge and began to set up camp.
Of course, in order to make the play more realistic, it is naturally impossible for all of them to be civilians.
There are also some elite soldiers dressed as ordinary soldiers.
But the flag belongs to Hua Xiong.
It's not Liu Cheng's own banner...
"Uncle Emperor, will these people really come here to fight?
Will you come to rob the camp?"
While setting up camp here, Ma Chao came to Liu Cheng and asked.
He felt that what the emperor's uncle was doing at this time was a bit too troublesome.
People like Yuan Shu are just local chickens and dogs.
Here, we have strong soldiers and horses.
In this case, just call directly.
After a strong attack, he knocked it down, and then went over to kill Yuan Shu as well, that's it.
Why bother?
What strategy should be used to lure the enemy here?
It always makes people feel a little unhappy.
Liu Cheng shook his head and said: "I don't know, there is a certain possibility that we will lure them here.
After all, we have been trying to whet their appetites here for a long time.
Under Yuan Shu's rule, there were many troubles.
At this time, their most urgent need is to fight with us.
At this time, we pretended to be civilians and came here with some escorting soldiers and horses.
And there is so much food and grass.
For people in places like Tuerling, it is a very good goal.
After all, we look very weak and easy to bully.
Moreover, he was the first person to come out of Guanzhong.
Regardless of whether they are civilians or anything else, as long as Yuan Shu's men can defeat us.
Then, the merit of this first battle is won.
It will definitely be possible to achieve great success.
Fame, merit, these things are on the rise.
Moreover, it can also save Yuan Shu from a lot of troubles.
It can make the people's hearts in chaos become united again because of the beginning of the war."
Therefore, in this operation, Liu Cheng still has a certain degree of confidence that he can attract some people here in Tu'erling to come out and take action.
However, I only have a certain degree of certainty.
After all, in war, the possibility of unexpected situations is too great.
No one can be 100% sure.
But sometimes, you still need to do something.
If it can be done, then in the future, fewer soldiers and horses will be lost.
After all, in many places such as Tu'erling, Yuan Shu had already laid out many troops and horses to defend against these preparations.
Under this situation, if we directly attack by force, we will lose many soldiers and the price will be too high.
Although Liu Cheng has many soldiers and horses now.
However, they are not so many that they can be sacrificed at will.
He felt that if one can use tactics when using troops, then it is natural to use tactics.
The strategy is useless, so attack with force again.
Although Ma Chao had reached this time, after being educated by Zhao Yun and others, his temper had already subsided a lot.
But overall, he still appears to be more irritable and aggressive.
That's how young people are.
Hearing what Liu Cheng said, Ma Chao nodded.
I did not express some of my thoughts anymore.
After all, the person in front of me is Uncle Liu Huang, who is different from others...
And when Liu Cheng was building a camp here and preparing to lure the enemy.
News that they have taken action has already reached Tu'erling.
During this period of time, it was impossible for Ji Ling and others not to send their exploring horses here.
In fact, people here at Tuerling are paying attention to the actions here in Guanzhong all the time.
After hearing such news, Ji Ling felt a long sigh of relief.
Something has been done!
Finally something was done!
These damn people in Guanzhong, at this time, finally took action!!
In the past, he had been worried that the soldiers and horses in Guanzhong would move out and come here.
He doesn't want to fight them.
But after the people in Guanzhong really didn't take action, he, like his master Yuan Shu, realized that not taking action was even more terrifying than when he took action.
It can bring more trouble...
"General, what should we do now?
Do you want to lead troops and rob them?"
One of Ji Ling's generals looked at Ji Ling and said this.
There was some excitement in his voice.
After waiting here for so long, at this time, some people finally came from Guanzhong.
It would be best if you can eat it.
It can greatly improve the morale of your side!
Of course, the reason why he would call for a fight at this time was.
In addition to these, another most important reason is that the information obtained said that these people who came were just ordinary soldiers and civilians transporting large amounts of food and grass.
These people don't have much fighting power and are soft persimmons.
According to the information obtained, Liu Cheng himself is still there in Guanzhong and has not come out.
The nearest troops and horses that followed were hundreds of miles away from here.
