Li Su also thought about: Why was his "best strategy" to deal with Zhang Chun, which was exactly the same as Sima Yi's when he dealt with Gongsun Yuan, but Zhang Chun was not trapped? Could it be that Zhang Chun's intelligence value is higher than Gongsun Yuan?

Later, after thinking for a long time, he finally got a self-confidence explanation: Perhaps because Gongsun Yuan had more retreat than Zhang Chun, he was even more hesitant.

When Wei destroyed Yan in later generations, Yan was nominally just a vassal state and never expressed the intention of overthrow Wei. At most, it was only a separatist heart. Gongsun Yuan still had the opportunity to surrender at any time. If he surrendered, he would lose his power, but he could at least save his life. Therefore, Gongsun Yuan often wavered when making decisions.

The Er Zhang regime had no room for maneuver. Zhang Ju had become emperor and clearly shouted the slogan of taking over the world on behalf of the Han Dynasty. Therefore, when the Han Dynasty wiped out Er Zhang, other Hu tribes who were threatening to obey him could have forgiven him, but only Er Zhang would undoubtedly die.

Even the red rewards offered by Liu Yu clearly stated that he would buy two heads, and this condition is not allowed to be bargained.

Therefore, Zhang Chun's determination to go crazy before his death and his determination to fight the Han Dynasty to the end made up for the lack of intelligence. As long as a person is more determined, the probability of him being deceived by various alienation strategies will be greatly reduced.

This is the best policy of heaven's destruction, which is not a sin of wisdom.

Fortunately, Li Su made three moves every step of the way, and finally there was one suitable for Zhang Chun.

...

On June 14, Liu Bei, Zhang Hao and Xian Yunu fought for more than 20 days in Liao Tunnel, and finally the day when Zhou Tai team went to Xiangping for the fourth time to steal food from the front line to transport food.

After observing three times, Zhang Hao finally felt that he had completely seen through the real deployment of the Han army and could not help but send out a robbery of food.

There is no way, from the evidence from at least five aspects, such as the camp, stove, smoke from cooking, food transport frequency and scale, the difficulty of messengers and scouts in Liao Tunnel and Xiangping, etc., it is enough to prove that stealing the family is the main attack direction of the Han army.

With such sufficient evidence, what else can I wait for?

If this is not true, the Oscar winner doesn’t have the acting skills!

Moreover, after observing so many times, Zhang Hao also found out the speed of the Han army's ration team - from Liao Tunnel to Xiangping, a total of 200 miles. Zhou Tai's grain transport team took an average of eight days, which is to walk fifty miles a day.

Occasionally, there are one day faster or one day slower, and the empty car may also go faster when returning. Obviously, the Han army does not want to be thoroughly understood, so they create more variables within the scope of conditions.

But none of these matter.

Importantly, Zhang Hao also found out the easiest point in this process: that is, the point where Zhou Tai Grain Transport Team set off from Liao Tunnel Camp for a whole day and slept and rested on the first night.

It is now the sixth month of the lunar calendar, and the weather in the north is also very hot. The army often sleeps in the open at night, or covers a little light and simple tent, so there is no need to do anything to defend the temporary camp. Just cut a little wood and temporarily build a few piles and fences to surround it.

In other words, considering that he had walked this road several times, Zhou Tai added a little to make the temporary camp a little more smooth. Every time he left, the wooden shelves were left, and he only pulled away the tent cloth, and he would still camp here when he came back next time.

There are about three such places to rest overnight on the entire grain transport route.

Among these three points, this point on the first night is the most suitable for the two rebels to attack the camp and rob the food at night!

"If we go far, we will leave the Liao Tunnel Fortress for at least a hundred miles, so that our army will consume too much energy before the battle. And the further we attack, the more dangerous it will be to hit the main force of the Han army that has already gone to Xiangping. If we are about to fight with Zhou Tai, we are hit by Zhao Yun's main force of the Han cavalry, Zhao and Zhou will attack us, and the winner will be unpredictable.

So, just stare at Zhou Taidong's camp on his first night of entry and specialize in fighting this point. The enemy has the lowest possibility of reinforcements. I hope General Xianyu must remember this and wish you success!”

These words are the precautions that Zhang Hao told him before Xian Yunu took action.

Although Xianyunu's status is not inferior to Zhang Hao, he has an advantage, that is, he is very self-aware of himself as a Xianbei person and knows that his intelligence is definitely lower than that of the Han generals. Just follow the Han generals at this level of strategy.

Therefore, in the early morning of June 15, that is, the second half of the night after Zhou Tai's grain transport team set off, Xian Yunu brought eight thousand soldiers and four thousand infantry and cavalry each, and quietly touched the north bank of the Liao River, fifty miles east of the Liao Tunnel.

For this battle, Xian Yunu's soldiers even slept for a while during the day. They slept the whole afternoon the day before, and only got up in the evening to eat. Then they marched fifty miles at night to come here.

On the south bank of the Liao River opposite, the temporary camp of Zhou Tai's grain transport team was already in sight. There were two thousand soldiers and civilians who transported grain, as well as hundreds of large ox carts.

If eight thousand troops attack two thousand people, or sneak attacks and robbery camps and burns grain, you will definitely win quickly! Zhou Tai can't even hold on to the police and wait for Guan Yu in the Liao Tunnel direction or Zhang in the Xiangping direction, and Zhao will come to rescue him.

Otherwise, Zhang Hao would not have been able to gamble that more than half of the troops in the Liao Tunnel Fortress were used to rob the camp. What he wanted was a quick battle.

"General, it's three o'clock in the morning. Do you want to attack?" Xian Yunu's follower looked at the moon and stars and asked anxiously.

Xian Yunu shook his head: "Don't hurry, wait for the fourth update. The fourth update is the most sleepy and deadly time for the Han people. Moreover, we brought a total of 8,000 people this time, and at least half of the Han infantrymen accounted for. Even if we are the Xianbei warriors, we may not all see clearly at night. It would be better to wait until the fourth update, and there will be morning light as we fight. In this way, we have more soldiers and fewer soldiers in the Han people, so we will not trample on each other."

The army must consider the issue of trampling on each other in the dark.

If it is the harassment of "Ganning Hundred Cavalry Killing Cao's Camp", of course it doesn't matter, because the walkers you encounter are all enemies, and the enemy forces are hundreds of times more than friendly forces. No matter how you kill them, you will not hurt your own people by chance.

Xianyunu's troops were most powerful than the Han army. What he wanted was to wipe out completely, rather than stealing a handful and then leaving. Then he had to consider the issue of a large-scale quick battle and quick decision.

He asked the troops to rest far away on the north bank of the Liao River for another half an hour. Seeing that the time was almost over, he ordered the general attack.

"Yanglang~" Some noises sounded, and several wooden stakes at the fences of Zhoutai camp were pulled open, pulled out, pushed down, and then finally there were shocking shouts of killing.

Seven or eight thousand rebels rushed in like a tide.

However, the expected panic did not appear. The Han army seemed very calm. The wave of rebel vanguards who had poured in were shot overturned by "Puchi~Puchi~" crossbow.

"Well? The Han army is actually prepared? No matter what, they will be piled up to death. Zhou Tai has no name, so he will die!" Xian Yunu's arrow was on the string and had to fire it.

...

Long before the rebels entered the camp, as a village chief who was running the night that night, Taishici had already discovered something was wrong in the only whistle tower in the camp.

Thanks to the military advisor's repeated care of him: the first night camp of the grain transport team after leaving the Liao Tun Camp was the most dangerous, because it was the sphere of influence that the enemy was most likely to rob.

Therefore, when he arrived at this stop, Taishici was very careful. He took the shift to the middle of the night and would rather sleep on the grain truck during the day tomorrow.

If you change to someone with higher status, you may be lazy if you don’t have any problems several times in a row.

But Taishici has no capital to slack off.

His identity as a wanted fugitive more than a month ago was discovered by Guan Yu in martial arts and was granted the position of governor. Taishici must find a way to make a contribution and prove himself as soon as possible.

Moreover, as the commander of the village, Li Boya's military advisor repeatedly asked him to take care of how he acted, which made Taishi Ci feel proud and very proud.

You know, Li Su is one of the only two marquises in Liaodong today. If the marquis is willing to talk to you, he will look down on you.

What's more, just a few days ago, Taishici learned that his family was also taken from Donglai by Liu Fujun, which made Taishici even more grateful and decided to do it well. By the way, this decision had nothing to do with Li Su, and it was completely natural for Liu Bei to do it.

Who made Liu Bei win people's hearts very skilled? Even the tricks that Kong Rong wanted to seek talents in later generations were even more convenient, just like instinct.

At this moment, after discovering that the enemy was approaching the camp, Taishici immediately sent two clever soldiers to inform Sima Zhou Tai and Jun Hou Dianwei.

Dian Wei still couldn't help drinking a little wine at night. This minor problem could not be changed, but he didn't drink much. When he had time to sober up, he quickly struggled. He splashed cold water on his face and put on his armor, picked up two iron halberds to complete the preparations.

Dian Wei is also a typical example of not being able to achieve military merits, so in the eyes of outsiders, he is still a "nameless general". He has been working as a bodyguard by Li Su before. This time, in order to paralyze the enemy and lure the enemy to rob grain, famous generals cannot be sent to transport grain, so Li Su sent Dian Wei to cooperate with the pig and eat tigers.

So, although these thousands of people have no famous generals and powerful generals in the food team, there are actually quite a lot of powerful people with potential.

Because two-thirds of the grain trucks were actually empty, and they transported troops rather than grain. Therefore, the number of Han soldiers in Zhoutai camp was actually twice as high as the rebels expected, and there were many powerful people.

After encountering the robbery of the camp, the Han army quickly arranged the empty grain trucks and built them into obstacles to temporarily defend against the cavalry charge. They also disguised the grass tents used to cover the soldiers hidden in the car, and pushed them down in front of the formation, so as not to cause fire-prone straws to be fired by enemy rockets and burned to their own positions.

If you set up your formation in this way, you will naturally not panic at all. Even if the number of rebels is still more than twice that of the Han army's rations team, you will not be able to take it down for a while.

"Set the rockets quickly! The Han army is prepared! First burn all the Han army's camps and food transported!" After seeing that his vanguard troops were first released by the dense rain of arrows, Xian Yunu also knew that Zhou Tai was not sleeping in a daze. He was afraid that the patrol guards were very tight, so he retreated to the next best.

The rebels quickly shot out the rockets specially prepared tonight, and tens of thousands of rockets were thrown in a mess for a while.

Because the rocket is heavy in the head and light in the tail, it has poor aerodynamic shape, and its flight speed and lethality are much weaker than ordinary bows and arrows. It rolls and turns while flying, and some of it is tilted, like thrown out torches, flying across. But no matter what, the efficiency of setting fire is still OK.

"Hula~" On the open space more than ten steps in front of the Han army's chariot formation, many camouflage grass trenched by the Han army were lit, and instead formed intermittent fire barriers between the Han army and the rebels, increasingly hindering the route of the eager attack on the side. The two sides were fired in a confused manner through the fire that was ignited by hundreds of carts of straw, and could only fight in the gap without fire.

As a result, the rebels' numerical advantage became increasingly difficult to exert immediately. A large number of troops were piled up behind, forming a tactic of adding fuel to the oil, and they could only launch waves of charges without fire.

Zhou Tai and Dian Wei personally led their personal soldiers to guard the two widest gaps without fire. Spears and halberds flew, and waves of rebel soldiers rushed in at the gap, but they were all shattered by the elite Han army like waves slapped on stones.

Xian Yunu was secretly shocked when he was supervising the formation behind him: Didn’t he agree that the Han army’s grain transport teams were all unnamed generals on the second line? How could he fight so bravely in the formation?

He saw Zhou Tai's flag standing in a gap in the fire scene, with a long spear and shield formation next to it, and there were bows and crossbows to suppress the formation. The brave infantry soldiers with swords, shields, axes and shields next to them defended side by side, and the soldiers attacked by the rebels could not kill them at all.

"I heard that there were brave infantry soldiers under Liu Bei's tent, named Danyang soldiers, all of them were Shanyue barbarians who were heavy hammered with swords and shields. It seems that these are Danyang soldiers, and they are indeed well-known." Xian Yunu observed secretly and couldn't help but sigh.

However, as a Xianbei general, he was not an easy person. The enemy general's good fighting skills aroused his bloodthirsty.

Xian Yunu took out the hardest bow, and took advantage of the darkness and Zhou Tai was in the darkness, so he aimed carefully and shot with an arrow.

Zhou Tai was crazily slashing the enemy soldiers beside him. In addition, the sound of the flames ignited beside him was very loud, and the arrow broke through the wind could not be heard at all. Sure enough, he was shot into the ribs by an arrow. Fortunately, he was wearing iron armor and blocked by a rib, so he was not seriously injured.

"Uh!" Zhou Tai roared violently, and even pulled out the arrow that was not deep into the flesh. He counterattacked and slashed more fiercely, stabbing the five rebel soldiers around him to death.

"What? There is a ruthless man who is shot in an arrow and does not affect his martial arts at all? The arrow sore hurts, won't he shake his hands?"

"Sima Zhou retreats, I will kill the enemy soldiers here."

Shortly after Zhou Tai was shot in the arrow, a fierce roar came from behind, and then he saw Dian Wei, who had two weapons and had no shield, rushed over to reinforce.

The rebel soldiers saw that Dian Wei had no long soldiers, and his halberd was much shorter than the spear of ordinary infantrymen, so they bullied him so far, and their morale was even more enormous.

All the rebel infantry nearby holding spears and spears rushed over to sting, trying to stab Dian Wei to death with the advantage of the length of the weapon to achieve this great achievement.

However, they did not expect that Dian Wei just laughed loudly, then rotated the two iron halberds to protect their bodies, sweeping away more than a dozen spears.

Then, the spears were locked on one side with the branches of one of the halberds, and all the enemy spearmen were opened wide and unable to be replayed. The other spearmen quickly stepped forward, cutting them quickly, and in a few strokes, they killed all the dozen spearmen with locked weapons.

Xian Yunu was standing in front of the army and was stunned: How could this Han army officer, who had no name or banner, have such terrifying power?

It is not surprising to talk about Dian Wei's moves, but the key is that he can drive more than a dozen spears of soldiers with a single halberd, and this power is too terrifying.

Xian Yunu picked up the bow and arrow again with his hands trembling slightly, and fired another cold arrow, but Dian Wei swung the flying halberds and swung them away.

Xian Yunu had to step forward and shoot closer to some more. This time he had approached only thirty or forty steps away from Dian Wei. Finally, he hit a shot, slightly delaying Dian Wei's actions.

But just when Xian Yunu was proud, he did not notice that a sharp arrow was attacking him on the other side.

Fortunately, Xianyunu is a famous cavalry and shooting general in the Xianbei area. He was born with a quick instinct. He immediately turned his head and barely avoided the arrow that came straight to his throat. However, Fengdi also wiped it and cut a half-inch deep hole between his chin and cheek.

"Uh..." Xian Yunu was shocked by the arrow, and with his side move too hard, he actually fell off his horse.

"I'm fine, I'm fine! Don't be confused!" Xian Yunu endured the severe pain and roared wildly with blood in his mouth, for fear of affecting his morale.
Chapter completed!
