Chapter 200 Defeat like a mountain (2)
The three of them came to the tent, and Guo Si, who was eager to take revenge, couldn't wait to ask: "Military advisor, I don't know what good strategies you have to defeat Lu Bu, tell me quickly!"
Jia Xu smiled slightly and said to Li Jue and Guo Si, "Please look at the two generals. Lu Bu is a brave but not a resourceful person. When he learned that Zhang Fan and the two generals were outside the capital, he did not care about continuing to siege our army, so he hurriedly drove back to the capital. We can divide into three routes on the left, center and right, and go to pursue Lu Bu..."
Before Jia Xu finished speaking, Li Jue interrupted his later words: "Military advisors have forgotten that our army currently has only 21,000 people. If we want to divide it into three routes, there are only 7,000 people in each route. You should know that Lu Bu has a 70,000 army, of which 20,000 or 30,000 were the troops that were incorporated after defeating Niu Fu and Guo Si."
"What the general said is very true," Jia Xu and Li Jue finished speaking, and said with a smile: "Although Lu Bu is very eager to return, he has been on guard against our army, and will definitely stay behind the capable army. If we want to pursue, the middle army closest to him will definitely be defeated after being counterattacked by him."
When Guo Si heard this, he couldn't help but interrupt and said, "Military advisor, since we know that Lu Bu had been on guard, is it necessary for us to pursue him?"
Seeing the two of them looking confused, Jia Xu quickly explained to them: "Lu Bu is the bravest army, and no one can defeat him. If we pursue, we will be defeated by him. But if there is something wrong in the capital, Lu Bu is eager to rush back to rescue. Therefore, after he defeated our army, he will no longer be on guard against our army, but will rush to the road with all his strength. If our army chases us again, we will definitely win a great victory."
After Jia Xu finished speaking, Guo Si asked in confusion: "If this is the case, all the troops can be divided into three places?"
"When the Central Army pursued Lu Bu's army for the second time, if another team of troops appeared on each side of the left and right wings, the Lu Bu's army would not understand the reality of our army. Seeing that there were soldiers and horses everywhere, the soldiers and horses that were cut off from behind would inevitably become a mess." Jia Xu said this and specifically reminded Li Jue: "The general had just mentioned that in Lu Bu's army, many of them were former subordinates of Niu Fu and General Guo. When we saw that our army was in great power, these people would take the initiative to surrender. One thing went up and the other was worse, so how could Lu Bu be invincible."
"Miao, Miao, it's so wonderful." After hearing Jia Xu's plan, Guo Si couldn't help but cheer. He volunteered: "The Lu Army is commanded by my elders, and Zhiran and the military advisor each lead an army, just around me."
"No, General Guo cannot be the commander of the Central Army." Guo Si's request was rejected by Jia Xu without hesitation. He said confidently: "Lu Bu defeated the general a few days ago. If he was catching up with General Li, but General Guo, he would inevitably feel suspicious. Although he was brave but not resourceful, it does not mean that he is a fool. If he is suspicious, he will probably make his subordinates cut off the rear, and we will have no choice at that time."
When Jia Xu talked about Lu Bu's capable subordinates, Li Jue and Guo Si thought of Zhang Liao at the same time, because they were both defeated by Zhang Liao's subordinates. Li Jue hurriedly said: "Since the military advisor said that, then I will lead the middle army, the military advisor lead the left army, and Guo Si will lead the right army."
After the discussion was made, Li Jue took three thousand cavalry and four thousand infantrymen and left the camp first, chasing Lu Bu's army. Jia Xu and Guo Si each led a group of troops and went out of the gate to go their separate ways, preparing to harass the flanks of Lu Bu's army.
Li Jue chased after more than twenty miles with his troops. Suddenly, a soldier and horse ran a red rabbit horse for one of them, holding a Fangtian painting halberd, and shouted at Li Jue: "Lu Bu is here, Li Jue comes forward to die!"
After shouting, the Fang Tian Hua Ji in his hand suddenly waved forward and rushed over with the cavalry. Seeing that Lu Bu was cut off his back personally, Li Jue was so scared that he was so scared that he quickly shouted in a different voice: "Shoot the arrows, shoot the arrows quickly, don't let them rush over, otherwise we will be all done."
Following Li Jue's order, five hundred cavalrymen followed behind him and at the same time shot arrows towards Lu Bu's army. For a moment, the arrow fell straight into the Lu Bu's army's formation like a locust, and shot over the more than twenty cavalry rushing in front. Lu Bu danced the Fang Tianhua Ji in his hand like a windmill, blocking most of the feather arrows that were shooting at him, but one of them still hit his shoulder. Fortunately, the armor was thick, and although the feather arrows were nailed to it, they were not injured.
Lu Bu's horse was quick and quickly rushed to Li Jue. In just one round, Li Jue fled in panic. Seeing Li Jue running away in a panic, Lu Bu smiled and raised his Fang Tian Hua Ji and stabbed him left and right in the queue. Even Li Jue was not his opponent, and ordinary soldiers could not stop him. Wherever he passed, the cavalry fell off one after another, and the horses that had lost their master neighed and fled in all directions.
Lu Bu killed Li Jue's cavalry apart, and led his subordinates to follow Li Jue who was fleeing in a panic. He chased him five miles away. Seeing the spearmen lined up in front of him, he grabbed his mount, raised the Fang Tian Hua Ji in his hand high, shouted: "Get off!"
After Lu Bu walked away with his troops, Li Jue began to gather the broken cavalry. In less than half an hour, his most elite cavalry had been lost. He secretly felt fortunate that Jia Xu had made a plan to attack three times. Although he was defeated in this battle, he would soon be able to recover with the capital and profits.
When Li Jue reorganized his army and was about to pursue Lu Bu again, a junior school student said to him with lingering fear: "General, Lu Bu is extremely brave, and no one here is his one-piece general. Besides, the army was defeated just now, and our army was at a time of low morale. If you pursue it again, you may be in danger of the entire army being destroyed."
After hearing this, Li Jue laughed and then said to the junior school: "The defeat of our army was long as the military advisor expected. At this moment, the troops were rectified and they would pursue them again, and they would definitely win a great victory."
The primary school wanted to persuade him a few more words, but when he thought that his position was low, it would be useless to persuade him. If Li Jue got angry, he would cut himself into vain with one knife. So he quickly shut up and went back to gather his subordinates, preparing to follow Li Jue to chase Lu Bu.
Li Jue saw the morale of his subordinates on the ground. In order to boost morale, he rode his horse to the front of the queue and said at the top of his voice: "Soldiers, we will go after Lu Bu again soon. If you can capture Lu Bu, you will be rewarded with ten thousand gold; if you capture Lu Bu's generals, you will be rewarded with a thousand gold; if you kill one level, you will be rewarded with one gold..."
