Just when Ruan Zhengyu was lamenting to himself, a pair of crossbowmen suddenly rushed out from the camp of the Annan Army. These people passed by the fleeing defeated soldiers, then formed a formation in front of the formation, and began to draw their bows and fire.
arrow.
Ruan Zhengyu's eyes lit up when he saw this scene, maybe he still had a chance to save himself.
It turned out that this archer was commanded by Ding Xiaochun, the Taiwei of Annan Kingdom. He watched his troops being defeated from a high building in the camp. If he didn't stop them, I'm afraid the camp would also be overrun. When the time comes, Jia Ke will send his troops.
Under this, my side may be completely wiped out.
So Ding Xiaochun did not dare to neglect, and immediately got off the high platform, ordered thousands of archers under his command, and rushed out of the stronghold.
This random shot of arrows temporarily stopped the position. Jia Ke was afraid that his army would suffer too much, so he immediately ordered gold to stop the attack, allowing Annan to escape.
Ruan Zhengyu was carried by the guards and fled back to the camp. He was relieved when he saw that Jia Ke did not launch an attack.
At this time, Ding Xiaochun, who slowly retreated to the camp, came to Ruan Zhengyu's side, raised his hands and said: "Your Majesty, the people in the Central Plains are so powerful that we can no longer fight. We should fight with them in deep trenches and high bases. As long as the opponent runs out of food and grass, we will definitely defeat them.
retreat."
Ruan Zhengyu has nothing to say now and can only agree one by one.
So from that day on, Annan Kingdom never went out to fight against Jia Ke. They dug deep trenches and high bases, and guarded the camp tightly, not seeking merit, but seeking no faults.
Jia Ke challenged the opponent for several days in a row, but the opponent refused to fight. Jia Ke also saw the opponent's intention. He wanted to refuse to defend the camp and make himself short of food and grass and retreat automatically. Perhaps there was another idea, which was to lure him to attack.
village, and finally used this village to kill a large number of his troops.
In previous duels with the Tatars, the Tatars had always been the main attackers. Jia Ke's side was stationed, and then killed a large number of Tatars in the defense. Unexpectedly, now they all lost.
Jia Ke was determined to use his army to attack the opponent's camp, but he knew that if he did so, his side would suffer heavy losses.
So Jia Ke did not act too hastily, but sent thousands of wolf soldiers who were familiar with the route to explore the geographical situation of the mountains and rivers nearby, as well as the route of Annan Kingdom to transport grain and grass.
These wolf soldiers were accustomed to walking in the mountains. They divided hundreds of routes to infiltrate the Annan Kingdom from all directions, and protected the Han scribes who followed them. In less than half a month, Annan Kingdom and the Central Plains were completely destroyed.
The mountains, rivers, geography, rivers and roads were all clearly understood by them.
After getting this information, Jia Ke studied it carefully and found that the place where Annan Kingdom meets the Central Plains is indeed densely populated with mountains. There are only two roads leading to Annan Kingdom's camp.
Jia Ke looked at the map and sneered. If you don't go out to fight and want to use up my food supply, I will starve you of food first.
Now that Jia Ke had made up his mind, he did not hesitate. He immediately ordered Wu Lu, the commander-in-chief of Guangxi, to lead 20,000 wolf soldiers deep into the territory of the Annan Kingdom and begin to harass the opponent's food roads, making sure that the Annan Kingdom camp could not get food and grass.
support.
Wu Lu has also served as a general soldier on the border for so many years, so he naturally knows a lot about the affairs of Annan Kingdom.
He knew that the people of Annan were still very warlike. If he wanted to block two roads, the other party would definitely attack him desperately. I'm afraid they couldn't take care of both.
So Wu Lu personally took his own soldiers and hundreds of wolf soldiers to go first.
Wu Lu went to the main road first. It was indeed a wide and straight road. This road was newly built on a plain. The road was convenient for the army to pass. The grain and grass of Annan Kingdom mainly passed through this road.
When he came to another road, he saw that this path was built along the mountain and was very dangerous. It can be said that one man can guard the pass and no one can open it.
But because of this, since there are no important passes here, as long as this road is destroyed, it will take a lot of effort to dig it out again.
Wu Lu checked the two roads separately and came up with an idea. He immediately ordered the wolf soldiers to destroy the trail.
It is easy to destroy but difficult to build. When building this small road built along the mountain, Ananguo did not know how many craftsmen it took and how many years it took to complete it. Now Wu Lu gave an order and tens of thousands of wolf soldiers started working together.
, either holding a shovel or a wooden stick, and destroyed the trail for more than ten miles in just one or two days.
Don't worry, just destroy these ten miles. It will take a lot of effort to dig it out again. These roads are built along the mountains and cannot gather a large number of young people, so those who can really participate in the project
It is very rare. If you want to dig through these more than ten miles, you will have to work day and night. You can't succeed without a few months of hard work.
Wu Lu was now satisfied, so he left a thousand men here. In response, he took the others to the main road, where he blocked the road and built a large camp.
As soon as Wu Lu's camp was set up, he received a report from the soldiers that hundreds of people were coming from the opposite side, carrying provisions and grass to pass through.
It turns out that the Annan people who were escorting grain and grass did not know that the camp in front of them was under Wu Lu's command. They thought that their king Ruan Zhengyu was sent here to defend it.
In this case, Wu Lu was naturally not polite. He first lured these people into the camp, then ordered the soldiers to swarm them, disarmed and captured these people. The food and grass they brought over became Wu Lu's bag.
In this way, the convoy of Annan State transporting grain and grass to the north was intercepted by Wu Lutong when it came near the road. As a result, Annan State's camp began to gradually become scarce in grain and grass.
Ruan Zhengyu didn't pay attention at first. He thought it was the officers in the rear who were starting to slack off, so he sent his personal guards to urge them. As a result, these people never looked back.
Seeing that the food and grass in the camp were dwindling, Ruan Zhengyu realized that something was wrong.
So Ruan Zhengyu did not dare to neglect, and immediately ordered Ding Xiaochun to take 10,000 troops to check the situation.
Ding Xiaochun also spent his life fighting. At the beginning, he was a general under Ruan Zhengyu's father, and after the death of Ruan Zhengyu's father, he became an important minister of Tuogu.
Now that Ruan Zhengyu was entrusted with the important task of checking the passage at the rear, he naturally did not dare to neglect it.
When Ding Xiaochun traveled south for a day, he suddenly came to report that the mainland ahead was blocked by a military camp.
Ding Xiaochun immediately knew that this group of men might have robbed him of his food and grass.
So Ding Xiaochun led his troops to the camp. He saw that the camp had deep ditches and high fortresses. It stood on the plain. There were people coming and going in the camp, and it was heavily guarded.
Ding Xiaochun knew that if he wanted to attack this camp with his ten thousand men, they would all be dead and they would not be able to break through.
So he had no choice but to order people to call for formation, hoping that the other party would come out of camp and fight for a decisive battle. With the bravery of the people under his command, he might be able to defeat the opponent.
Wu Lu received the report of the horse exploration and knew that the Annan people had sent troops to clear the road, so he came to the camp gate and looked out.
I saw that the opponent only had 10,000 people, and the team was not organized, their armor was poor, and many of them did not even have complete weapons.
Originally, this weak brigade would definitely win a complete victory if Wu Lu went to battle, but Wu Lu restrained the troops from going to battle.
Wu Lu had already figured it out. His mission this time was to block the road so that the Annan camp would have no food and grass. There would be no need to go out and fight them. Not only would he lose soldiers and horses, but he would also lose his life if he loses.
Not guaranteed.
So Wu Lu immediately ordered the surrounding chieftains in Guangxi and Yunnan, "From now on, no one will go to war, and any disobedience will be punished without mercy."
These chieftains originally wanted to kill these people and make some merits, and then they would ask for their merits in front of King Yan to receive rewards.
Unexpectedly, the commander-in-chief actually told them to stand still. It was impossible to say that they had no resentment in their hearts, but they also knew that the military discipline of the Central Plains Dynasty was strict, so even if they had resentment, they could only endure it.
Ding Xiaochun had been fighting against the enemy in front of the camp for a whole day, but Wu Lu did not fight. Finally, Ding Xiaochun knew that the enemy seemed determined not to fight. In this case, he could only attack by force.
So Ding Xiaochun set up camp three miles away from Wu Lu's camp, and then asked the soldiers to bury pots to make rice and rest early.
At the third watch, Ding Xiaochun suddenly beat the drum to gather the generals. Then Ding Xiaochun ordered all the soldiers and asked everyone to tie white cloth on their left shoulders.
After getting ready, Ding Xiaochun quietly approached Wu Lu's camp with his troops.
After Ding Xiaochun approached Wu Lu's camp with his men and horses, he found that although the camp was very solidly built, the soldiers were not well defended. It seemed that they did not take people like him seriously.
Now that he had this opportunity, Ding Xiaochun naturally couldn't let it pass, and he immediately marched forward with his troops.
The soldiers guarding the camp gate did not expect that the other party would come to rob the camp, so they were very lax. When the other party approached the camp gate, they discovered them and hurriedly knocked on the gong to alert the camp, but by this time it was too late.
.
Ding Xiaochun just rushed into Wu Lu's camp and set fire to kill everyone. However, because there was no unified command in Wu Lu's camp, although the wolf soldiers were fierce, they fought independently and were unable to block the opponent's attack for a while.
.
Wu Lu was also a little careless. He thought that the other party must be exhausted after coming from afar and yelling and cursing in front of the camp for a day, so he did not expect that the other party would come to steal the camp and rob the village. At this time, Ding Xiaochun broke into the camp and waited for Wu
When Lu reacted, his camp was already in chaos.
Wu Lu was also woken up from his sleep by his own soldiers. When he understood the situation, he was shocked.
Wu Lu felt bad. If he failed this time and allowed the other party to reopen the road, King Yan would not be lenient with him after he returned. By then, not only himself but his family would also be implicated.
After Wu Lu thought about this, he knew that he had no way out, so he immediately asked his soldiers to bring the BMW. He got on his horse and held a big gun, and galloped through his camp while calling out the nearby rebels. And he
