In this disorderly environment, Chen Chong does not need too many fancy commands.
Because the location of the ambush was not only carefully considered by Yang Feng and others, but also the result of careful consideration by Chen Chong.
Hequdu is now surrounded by desperate terrain on three sides, and Chen Chong gave an order, and the county soldiers who were ambushing the sheep, regardless of their disciplined formation, swarmed towards the mountain road where Yang Feng came.
A hasty charge has no formation at all. From a distance, it looks almost the same as a stream of refugees. If the two armies are prepared in a tight formation, it can be said that there are holes everywhere, and good fighters can even defeat the county soldiers in one wave.
But now the Baibo army was scattered in the valley, looking panicked. Unexpectedly, they were ambushed, their morale was depressed, and there was no general to cheer up their morale. They could only scatter like birds and beasts, but they had nowhere to escape.
The only ones who could resist a little were Yang Feng's soldiers, only about a hundred of them. Seeing that Yang Feng was captured, they immediately responded to recapture Yang Feng. However, they were in close combat and the huge gap in numbers meant that they were overwhelmed almost instantly. Wei Yan was at the front, taking advantage of the Baibo army's lack of time to react. He cut off a knight's head with one knife and flew onto his horse. The horse beneath him was startled, raised its hooves and neighed, shaking down the headless corpse still dripping with blood.
Go, all the Baibo soldiers around are terrified.
Someone reacted and shouted to his companions: "Go back to the intersection! Go back to the intersection!"
It was already too late. It turned out that the Baibo army rushed out of the intersection and did not send anyone to stay behind. Instead, they rushed into Hequdu. After they relaxed their vigilance, Chen Chong suddenly charged towards the intersection with all his strength, gaining a time advantage. One step was slow.
, step by step slowly, Sergeant Bai Bo was crushed into a puddle of flesh by this desperate charge!
As the smoke and dust descended, the scattered Baibo army watched Chen Chong seize the intersection and reorganize their formation. However, they still could not complete the formation, and a feeling of despair surged into their throats that could not be concealed.
"Fly my flag!" Chen Chong said to Xu Shu.
Xu Shu nodded accordingly and raised two moiré flags with crimson bottoms and blue edges high in the moonlight. The words "Yu He has a destiny" on the left and "Begin to innovate" on the right were faintly visible.
Most of the sergeants Baibo didn't know how to read, but when they saw the two flags waving, the Xihe County soldiers' formations were tight, and their morale was high, they all knew that the situation was over, and they suddenly lost all will to fight.
In a sense, the battle at Hequdu cannot be regarded as a real battle. At least in terms of form, it is more like a farce. From the white wave knight flying into the ferry, to the ambush
The county soldiers made a sudden attack, and the attacking party hardly encountered any effective counterattack.
Of course, there are many reasons for this phenomenon. There are three main reasons why the Xihe County soldiers captured the Baibo Knights alive with almost no loss: First, the incident happened suddenly, and almost all the knights thought they had completed the goal of encirclement and capture alive.
, they had already relaxed their vigilance, and even dismounted and threw away their weapons to fight for the spoils. Under such circumstances, it was almost impossible for them to suddenly muster the courage to fight again. The entire White Wave Army had no morale at all. The second is the dispersion of troops. Yang Feng thought he had an absolute superiority in troops, so he divided his troops into three groups, one on the left, one on the right and one in the center, in order to surround Chen Chong. The idea is not bad, but in terms of the actual effect, it is to surround Chen Chong.
The entire team formed a long snake formation. Chen Chong gathered the county soldiers in one place and rushed across Yang Feng's direct line who was facing him, seizing the mountain road where Yang Feng came. In fact, Bai Bo's army had no one left.
There are roads to go. The ferry on the east side leads to the base camp controlled by the government troops, and the mountain road on the west side leads to Shan Yuting. There is no way home. The Baibo Army has completely lost its will to fight.
The third was an unexpected surprise, and of course it could also be regarded as the difference between the army commanders. Before Yang Feng could fully identify the enemy situation, he led only a few hundred people to try to talk to Chen Chong through the sheep. His eyes were not good, and a county official
The soldier happened to have his head buried in front of him, but he turned a blind eye, and was suddenly attacked by the county soldiers and captured alive. As a result, when Chen Chong commanded the county soldiers to fight, the entire Baibo Army had no one to command, and the army was in chaos, unable to respond accordingly.
.Not to mention that he had allowed his soldiers to dismount and loot, and had no military discipline at all. From this point of view, he can hardly be said to be a competent commander.
Of course, to say the least, nothing is as real or convincing as the final result. Of the 5,000 Baibo troops, except for a small number who fled towards Meiji, and some who tried to swim across the meandering river, there were about 5,000 Baibo troops.
4,800 people surrendered under the loud shouts of the county soldiers, "Disarm and do not kill." During the whole process, no more than 50 county soldiers were injured, and no one died. Of course, this result was also good for the Baibo Army.
In total, in addition to about 300 people who were injured, only about 50 people who followed Yang Feng and stood at the front were killed.
The two sides seemed to have conducted an armed parade, and comically, the county soldiers with a smaller number won an overall victory. In the final analysis, Chen Chong was far superior to the five commanders of Bai Bo in terms of operational planning. This battle was completely Chen Chong's official fishing.
, the bait was big and the hook was straight, and the big fish Yang Feng was successfully caught.
The big fish Yang Feng is now tied up with five flowers. It is struggling continuously under the care of three people, as if it is still making a death struggle on the river bank. Chen Chong didn't even look at it, and directly commanded Wei Yan: "Wen Chang, give it to him.
Just knock him out, I still need him to be of great use."
Wei Yan's attitude toward Chen Chong was as if he were a god at this moment, and he responded simply: "Okay!" Then he strode up to Yang Feng, stretched out his waist and legs, as if stretching his muscles and bones. Yang Feng looked at him with no idea at all.
He looked like a human being and said angrily: "Boy, what if you just want to help me?"
Wei Yan yelled: "I want you to punch Naigong!" Yang Feng immediately saw a fist as big as a bowl flying into his eyes, and with a "clang", red, white, black, and purple were flying all over the place, and finally
Together they turned into glittering stars all over the sky, and then unable to breathe, Yang Feng fell to the ground.

Wei Yan glanced at the prisoner under his fist with satisfaction, then turned around and smiled at Chen Chong: "Chen Jun, this punch guarantees that this kid won't wake up for two days. What are you going to do with him?"
Chen Chong said with a smile: "I will take him to do a big thing. If it is successful, I will be able to truly govern in Xihe." He then ordered several music leaders: "You guys,
Each took a prisoner and went to the dense forest nearby to inquire about their military orders. Tell them that as long as it is true, I will not only forgive them, but also reward them. If they are willing to be soldiers, I will promote them, and if they are not willing to be soldiers, I will
Give him the land."
The music commanders left in response, and Wei Yan wondered: "With such a great victory, Mr. Chen, what more do you want to do to the rebel army? As long as two days have passed, we will wait for the news of the great victory to reach Yuanshui County, and the rebel army will surely
If we are on guard, the military orders must be changed." At this point, Wei Yan glanced at Yang Feng who was fainting at the side, and suddenly his thoughts came to a sudden realization, and he whispered: "Mr. Chen, are you going to lead troops pretending to be thieves to attack the two counties?" Seeing his quick thinking, Chen Chong couldn't help but be happy for Wei Yan. He smiled broadly, but he shook his head and said: "A surprise attack on the two counties is not feasible. You have been here for a long time. You should also know that the two sides of the Wan River are narrow and heavily fortified. We
Waiting for military orders to attack Wa Shi by surprise at this time, it is absolutely impossible to attack the two counties in one go."
Wei Yan was not dissatisfied. He looked at the map every day and now knew the terrain of Xihe very well. He continued: "If you can control the Washi, it will be an unexpected surprise. Why not? We can master the Washi and then
Summon Zhang Shijun to surround the two counties from the west. It will be a close-door attack on the two counties. The bandit army will be defeated without doubt if they sit in the trapped city!"
"This is indeed a way." Chen Chong nodded in admiration, but then denied it: "It's just that we don't have so much time. We must deal with the Baibo Army quickly, otherwise the news from Youzhou will spread to Meiji and our army will still be under the city.
The consequences of siege would be disastrous."
Wei Yan was at the end of his wits at this time and didn't know what Chen Chong would do next. But Xu Shu, who was silent on the side, was shocked and repeatedly advised: "Sir, don't be like this. You are in danger alone, and the thieves have no benevolence and righteousness."
, being defeated and at the end of the road, he will inevitably vent his anger and take revenge. Once Mr. is in danger, what can be done about Xihe?"
Chen Chong sighed in his heart, Xu Shu was indeed his most proud disciple, and he could guess his true intentions. He relieved Xu Shu and said: "Yuan Zhi's words are wrong. How can you sacrifice your life when doing great things? Now that I can have such a great victory, no matter what
Is he using himself as a weapon and risking his own life? I heard that Guo Da has a reputation for benevolence, and I have Yang Feng as a pledge. I must be sincere, and he will not be able to do anything to me."
Xu Shu's tone was passionate and he categorically vetoed: "Sir, at this time and at the same time, this battle is done with intention and without intention. It seems dangerous, but in fact it is certain to win. But when going to Yuanyang, the manpower is sometimes exhausted, and only one person, Sir, is in charge of life and death.
How can this be accomplished in the blink of an eye of the thieves? If you, sir, are determined to carry out this attack, Yuan Zhi is willing to do it on your behalf!"
"Yuanzhi, please rest a while." Chen Chong reached out and patted Xu Shu on the shoulder, asking him to swallow what he said. The five commanders had come back after asking for military orders. Chen Chong asked them to confirm each other first. Except for one person who was wrong, the other four
Chen Chong was very satisfied that everyone could cope with the situation. After praising them, he allowed them to continue reorganizing the prisoners. Then he said sternly to Xu Shu:
"Yuan Zhi, it is absolutely impossible for you to go. The most important thing to say about surrender is sincerity. You have not yet reached the top, and you are just a coward in the eyes of the rebel army. How can I win the trust of the rebel army when I send you?
”
Xu Shu wanted to say more, but Chen Chong's expression dimmed again and he sighed: "And I have told you many times that people are not good or evil in nature. Xunzi said that human nature is evil and Mencius said that human nature is good. They are all biased words. More
Most of them just go with the flow and follow the trend. If the world trend is upward, everyone will do good. If the world trend is downward, morality will be degraded. We cannot be thieves. We are people who are born to cause chaos. If we can survive on the farmland, how many people are willing to hang on our land?
Head on the edge of a knife? Therefore, what we do is, firstly, to enlighten the people's wisdom, and secondly, to dare to be the first."
"To improve the world, we should have someone who dares to take the lead, be a pioneer, and set an example for the world. You must first harm yourself and benefit others before you can win the trust of others. Yuan Zhi, you must remember that you are not afraid of heaven, ghosts, or death.
, not afraid of rumors, not afraid of mistakes, only afraid of claiming to be superior to others. Which one is more important, my life and death, or the life and death of tens of millions of people in Xihe? If you can't tell the difference, you may make a big mistake!"
Xu Shu lowered his head and said nothing, and Wei Yan finally understood that Chen Chong was going to take Yang Feng to the Baibo Army base camp for negotiations alone. Wei Yan was not as excited as Xu Shu, but instead said with high spirits: "How can Chen Jun do this alone?"
Such a big thing? Yan should go with you!"
Chen Chong looked at the Baibo knights who were being driven to the river, and vetoed Wei Yan's proposal with a faint smile. He said: "There are still five thousand prisoners here, which is really not a small number. Chief Wen, go and inform Governor Zhang.
I am willing to give him half of this military merit, and let him send people over to move all these prisoners to the wasteland, and then deal with them when I come back."
After that, he handed Qing Wei's reins to Xu Shu, rubbed his head and said with a smile: "Yuan Zhi, don't be so discouraged. Of course it is not a bad thing to pay attention to the enemy, but we must also believe in people's hearts. At least, you must believe in me.
Do you think the teacher is someone who can die so easily?"
Hearing this, Xu Shu raised his head and said sincerely: "Not only the students think, but all the disciples of the teacher think that the teacher is a sage who has not been seen in three generations. Confucius and Mencius are not the same. The dragon head is just a common name for the teacher, the student wishes.
I am a candle, but if I can burn out the brilliance of my husband for a moment, I will be satisfied."
"Okay!" Chen Chong laughed loudly when he heard this. In the eyes of the prisoners who were half frustrated and half worried, and in the eyes of the county soldiers who were half admired and half in awe, he put on a white military uniform and rode on Yang Feng's
The mount tied Yang Feng to the horse's back, then raised the horse and raised his whip, and restrained the mount.
He pointed at the bright morning star in the sky, turned around and smiled at Xu Shu: "Yuanzhi, just wait for four days. If Taibai is born today, it will be the day when I return to Lishi."
After saying that, he turned around and left, disappearing behind the rocks.
