In Yangguan, the Han envoys and followers in a separate camp were not panicked. They were originally from the "White Sand Warriors" and had experienced this kind of big scene several times. I dare not say that they were not surprised, but they were not so panicked that they didn't know what to do.
The squadron leaders behaved extremely calmly, and the brave men naturally felt calm as well.
It's just that during the chat, the two squadron leaders were discussing the same thing. Just sticking to it wouldn't work. Once they were shrunk into a narrow area, it would be detrimental to their performance.
I look down upon Qi's martial arts, but when it comes to street fighting, the tactics of martial arts are more flexible, and when fighting alone, the individual skills of martial arts are indeed much higher.
"This is Wenshui, and here is Yanggou, followed by large ditch, double ditch, deep ditch, and small ditch. These five ditches, the Qi army's layout is to advance hand in hand, and the force is very strong."
"You can't just look at us, you also have to look at the people of Lu."
"If there is no Lu people to open up the battlefield in the field, just asking us to make hammerheads will not work."
"good."
Although the troops led by the two men were the traditional scale of the Wu Army, in terms of the traditional order of the Wu Army, they were just a "hundred-man general". They were low-level officers and would not be allowed to learn advanced tactical knowledge at all.
However, in the Han military system, this kind of knowledge can be decentralized, and as long as the soldiers want to learn, there are channels.
It was just a rigorous and random spread, and it was basically limited to the Crocodile Man and the White Sand Warriors. Later, the newly added warriors and newly recruited martyrs needed a lot of examinations and selections to learn more military knowledge, not just culture.
Knowledge.
"Mr. Ziyu is still in Hexi, may I ask for instructions?"
"If I ask for instructions, I'm afraid it's too late. The Qi army has cut off the retreat from Yangguan, and there are grains in Guanzhong. If it only supplies the soldiers, it will be enough. But Dr. Zouyi gathered all the people in Guanzhong, and there are so many mouths that he can't hold it.
A few days.”
"The Qi army can deploy thousands of chariots in Guanxi, but the number of chariots in the Guandong camp must be much less."
"Give it a try."
"Give it a try."
Nodding, the two squadron leaders called in the squad leaders, described the situation, and then said: "The two of us decided to rob the Qi Army camp so that we can have a chance of survival. I know that your Majesty is already on the way.
But this time, it would be meaningless to resist Qi and aid Lu if we do not eliminate all the elites of the Lu people."
"Therefore, the purpose of seizing the Qi army's camp this time is just to delay the Qi army's attack on Yangguan. As long as the Qi army can be frightened, Yangguan should not encounter a pincer attack in the short term."
After more than a dozen squad leaders listened, someone raised their hands and asked: "Should we divide the troops and rotate them?"
"We have a total of two hundred troops, and we will not divide them into rotations."
Another person raised his hand and asked: "Is the direction of attack Kanto or Kansai?"
"Logically speaking, it is the best result to deal with the Qi army in Kansai. In this way, the food route can be guaranteed. However, the place where the Qi army cuts off the retreat is too far. Even if we can penetrate the Qi army's infantry
Facing the Qi army's vehicle formation, we can only follow the bunkers and seek cover."
Then another team leader raised his hand and asked: "If the people of Lu cooperate, the chance of winning will be much greater."
"That's the problem. The people of Lu dare not go west out of the country."
This answer made many squad leaders remain silent.
To be honest, there are many solutions to the problem of being too afraid to move forward. The best way is to set up a supervising team.
But now if they seize the command of Yangguan, it will be even more troublesome.
Zihe, the official of Zouyi, had some talent, but the people of Lu didn't have any. What could they do?
"The best choice now is to go east out of the pass. There are five ditches east of Yangguan. Although there are places where Qi people have buried land between the ditches, in general, they are still not suitable for chariots to run. The battle is still on foot.
Death."
"The Qi army has a large shield, and the camp has been well-organized, so there are not many opportunities. Furthermore, even if they get out of the border, they still need the cooperation of the Lu people to prevent part of the Qi army from being attracted away. We will rob the Qi army's camp and suffer a huge loss.
It’s just that the gain outweighs the loss.”
"The Qi army is also very powerful. It only takes three or four days to cut off the retreat. Calculating the time, Ziyu Jun should return to Qufu and reinforce Yangguan at this time."
It's a pity, but there's nothing to be afraid of.
Without the two hundred or so people beside Wei Yu, Yang Guan did not say that it would be over immediately.
But for the brave warriors of Baisha, it now feels a bit like gambling.
However, when Li Jie took them out for adventure and stood out from the "Baisha", they always had a three or four chance, so they had to go all out to give it a try.
There are not so many things that are certain.
"Now, what are your suggestions?"
"Snatch the whole camp!"
"Snatch the whole camp!"
"Snatch the whole camp!"
There is no better choice, and the team leaders also know that the days of petty fighting must be over.
This is not a matter of the Qi army attacking the city and then pushing back with swords.
Taking advantage of the special geographical environment of Wutiao Valley in Guandong, they had to make a good hammer to knock the Qi army into silence with one hammer blow.
But during the whole process, the Lu army was not a decoration and did not contain the strength of the Qi army. Two hundred people were thrown into the battlefield, which was just a handful of sand and was of no use.
After the two squadron leaders found Zihe, the doctor of Zouyi, they almost scared Zihe to the point of telling them their purpose.
In such a situation, we still have to go out to fight in the field? And also to rob the entire camp?
"You two, Qi Camp's army is in good order and its troops are strong. Wouldn't it be, wouldn't it be..." to rob Qi Camp at this time?
Zihe didn't finish his words, but his attitude and meaning were already very clear.
The two squadron leaders then explained to him that in the current situation, defending to the death means defending to the death. The great victory of the Qi army in Kansai quickly boosted the morale of the Qi Allied Forces.
All the nonsense things that happened before were wiped away by victory.
Victory, and only victory, can do this.
"The Lu army defended the pass and formed a formation. Our troops chose the opportunity to charge into the formation."
His attitude was very firm, and he made it clear that he was not joking. This kind of momentum was very fierce right there.
Zou Yihe was very envious of the fact that the Han army was composed of so many warriors, and immediately said: "If you continue to shirk it, it means that I am too cowardly. There are also brave men in the Lu country."
After saying that, Zou Yihe said: "Can we seize the Qi camp and fight in two days? Someone can make a little plan to weaken the Qi army."
"Shu Liangjun does as he pleases."
"good!"
Seeing that the Han people were so easy to talk to, Zou Yihe breathed a sigh of relief and faced him directly. He was still a little scared.
Now that the morale is low, he told the Lu people that they would break out of the border and fight, but he was afraid that they would escape immediately. In two days, Zou Yihe planned to persuade the Lu army.
As for whether to lie or coax, that is his business, but things have to be done.
After Baisha Yongfu's two squadron leaders left, one of them asked: "What do you think Zouyi Shuliang is going to do?"
"It should be to stabilize the morale of the Lu army. The Qi army had a great victory before, and the Lu army suffered heavy losses. The Lu army that had entered the pass to assist has not entered the pass yet, but is stationed in the west of the pass. I must have some concerns."
"The generals of the Lu Army in Guanxi have not yet come to communicate with Zou Yihe."
"There is no rush. If they are willing to station outside the pass, let them go. It would be better if they are defeated by the Qi army."
Although there was no clear statement within the Hanzi Kingdom that all the fresh troops of the Lu Kingdom would be destroyed by the Qi Allied Forces, the middle and lower-level officers all had this awareness.
Some advanced soldiers can also see the operations of the top management and come to save the Lu country for no reason, just for justice and justice. How is it possible?
Justice and justice are what our country of Han wants, but it is not just justice and justice.
The next day, the brave warriors of Baisha suddenly heard that someone from Yangguan escaped secretly last night and went to Qi camp.
This made Baisha Yongfu's captains feel weird, but they didn't care. This kind of running away was basically a common thing.
It's just that most of them dispersed before and had no specific escape destination.
But this time, it was very clear that he had gone to Qi camp as he had said.
On the third day, the brave warriors of Baisha heard that someone else had escaped secretly from Yangguan last night, and they decided to defect to the Qi camp.
This time, there were quite a few people running around, one to two hundred people, most of whom were locals near Yangguan.
In fact, no one knows whether he is a local aboriginal. He might be a spy of Qi State. This is not impossible.
But that night, Zihe, the official of Zouyi, happily went to the separate camp of the Han envoys and retinues, found the two squadron leaders of Baisha Yongfu, and after saluting, he said: "For two days in a row, some civilians have been running away in confusion.
There are many people who have defected to the Qi camp, so the Qi army will definitely relax!"
After saying this, Zihe, the official of Zouyi, solemnly said: "Tomorrow, I will support all the brave men!"
"good!"
"Thank you, Uncle Liangjun!"
The two squadron leaders never expected that Zihe, the senior official of Zouyi, could do such a trick.
The morale of the Qi army was already strong, and now there were civilians from Yangguanzhong fleeing to join the army, which naturally added to their arrogance.
The Qi army would obviously think that the Lu army was unstable and might have thrown itself into disarray. At this time, it was quite normal for them to relax their vigilance.
Even if the generals and subordinates urge them, the officers and soldiers at the grassroots level who are unorganized and arrogant can't help but relax.
Furthermore, the Qi State's military management was relatively loose to begin with, and the martial artists were used to being unorganized. What's more, those miscellaneous troops, their main duty was to follow the family leader and hold back the Marquis of Qi.
Excellent performance in foreign wars was not their label attribute in the first place.
By the next day, there was no water in the Guanxia ditch. Zihe, the official of Zouyi, coaxed and deceived, saying that he wanted to frighten the Qi army, so he organized the Lu troops and formed an array under the Guanxia.
The formation was ready, but the door was wide open. After all, he had promised to make it easier for the Lu army to get up and down, so that when they turned around and ran away, they could escape back to the pass as soon as possible.
The actions of the Yangguan garrison also alarmed the Qi army. The Qi army's morale was already high. At this time, when they saw the loose and nervous Lu army, which was obviously low in morale and acted nervously, they were overjoyed and immediately beat their drums and lined up.
Although the speed of the formation was actually much stronger than that of the Lu army, in the eyes of the brave warriors of Baisha, this was an extreme level of procrastination and laziness.
Zou Yihe drove and beat drums, and the battle line was stretched very long. Although the Qi army was arrogant, they did not dare to relax. They also relied on the camps and ditches to stretch the battle line very long.
The skirmish lines of both sides, when stretched, can cover the entire front of Yangguan. On both sides of Yangguan, there are no more roads except for a few piers that cut off the water flow.
But here at Lu Jun, someone actually quickly carried out the bamboo planks.
It is more like a bamboo ladder than a bamboo board, and boards are laid on it to facilitate people to pass quickly.
"Huh? The Lu army is so strict?"
The morale of the Qi army's main formation was high from top to bottom, but in the Chinese army camp, Bao's generals were observing the changes up and down the Yangguan from a distance.
The enemy army on the opposite side is indeed the Lu army. Their uniforms alternate between blue and yellow, making them very easy to recognize.
It's just that there are some troops in the Chinese army who look very strange.
On the chariot, the figure of Zihe, the official of Zouyi, was particularly easy to recognize, and his peach color made him even more eye-catching.
"Could he be Zou Yihe's personal guard?"
"If we can capture Zou Yihe alive, it will be a great achievement, and the Lu country will be destroyed!"
The people of the Bao family are now very happy to kill their own people regardless of the beast Gui Tian. Now as long as they win the war, the losses can be made up. When the time comes, they can even intensify their efforts and settle a good account with the Marquis of Qi.
Not only the Bao family, but also the Gao family also expressed their dissatisfaction tactfully. After all, such a huge loss here in the Lu country was something they had never thought about.
The previous slogan was "If you don't want to beg for help", is this how you want to beg for it now?
It's so laborious to defeat the Lu State. If we really compete with the Han State, I'm afraid there is no chance of winning.
However, no one can tell what will happen in the future. Many people's idea is to settle the situation in Lu first.
"The Lu army moves forward."
"How dare the Lu army march?"
With the assumption of bamboo boards, the ditch naturally became a decoration, and a large number of troops began to move forward. In order to prevent the Qi army from being surrounded and attacked, they naturally had to set up their formations to respond to the enemy.
It's just that among the Lu army's central troops, You Chexing seemed to be more prominent. He was probably a little impatient, or even too nervous, so he didn't notice the troops on the two wings and was already separated from them.
The Qi army was immediately overjoyed. This central army was too outstanding. If they went directly to attack it, they might be able to penetrate the Lu army. Zou Yihe was still beating the drum there. He wanted to escape, but it was not that easy.
Bao's people thought very well, but in a daze, they always felt that the prominent Lu Jun Chexing seemed to have two Chexings walking faster.
The uniforms are obviously similar to those of the Lu troops on the left and right, and they also have spears and swords in their hands, but I always feel that there is something a little bit different.
These two teams made no sound at all, just advancing on foot in an orderly manner.
Soon, after crossing the ditch, the small group of troops got closer and closer, and the Qi army suddenly started to charge with shouts of killing.
But in an instant, the Lu army's shouts of killing were equally thunderous.
"attack"
"charge"
"kill"
"kill"
The weird tone finally made people react. Someone from the Bao family shouted: "No, it's the Han army pretending to be"
