It's all abstract destiny, you're one emperor through the ages

Chapter 119 Can He Win?If he wins, the opposite is a bluff!
Lei Lan and Wu Tong are equally famous, and they are both young talents who are rare in the cochin.

Zhang Yiping led an army of [-] to the expedition, and naturally he also brought other generals.

Lei Lan's 8000 men are the vanguard of the army, responsible for scouting the way and inquiring about the reality of the Han army.

Eight thousand soldiers and horses marched in a hurry, all the way to the port of Vung Tau hundreds of miles away.

But at this time, there was a scout riding alone to report, bringing Zhang Yiping's message.

"General Zhang Yiping has something to ask the younger one specifically, and told the general."

"He said that the Han army has been stationed in Vung Tau Port for a long time, and the army is trapped by poisonous insects, so they will definitely guard against our army taking advantage of the situation."

"In this way, the Han army will probably set up ambushes along the way to prevent our army from advancing."

"General Lei still needs to pay more attention, be careful, and don't fall into an ambush."

Hearing this, Lei Lan couldn't help frowning.

It's not that he didn't believe Zhang Yiping's words.

General Zhang's abilities are well known to both civil and military officials of Cochin Kingdom.

Although he doesn't know a single big character, and the letters are always oral, he can't hold a pen, and the imperial edict has to be read and listened to, but he is indeed a natural talent.

This is also an interesting thing.

It has to be traced back to Zhang Yiping's childhood.

Zhang Yiping is a descendant of the Jiaozhi aboriginals, but his blood is not so pure. He is born of the local aboriginals and the Han people.

His family was poor, so he was never literate.

Later, in a mountain fire, Zhang Yiping, relying on his bravery, rushed into the fire and rescued the county magistrate. Only then was he appreciated and qualified for promotion.

It's just that he still can't read.

Such a general who is not very literate and needs someone to read to him on weekdays. He has a serious personality, calm and reserved, and doesn't talk much. He can almost be described as boring or even gloomy.

But it just convinced the generals of the Jiaozhi Kingdom, and even made the economical and literary Xiangguo Gaoyi willingly surrender the military power to him.

It shows its ability.

Lei Lan came to his senses, since General Zhang said that the Han army might set up an ambush, he should be more vigilant.

He called Tanma and asked:

"Where have we marched?"

The spy replied:

"General, if you go any further, you will reach the Wutu Valley."

"Well"

Lei Lan responded with a little nervousness on his face.

After passing the Wu Tu Valley, it is not far from Vung Tau Port.

And this Wutu Valley has a narrow terrain, half of which is a mountain stream and half of which is a dirt road.

The mountain streams are not accessible to pedestrians, while the dirt roads are muddy and difficult to walk on.

If the Han army plans to set up an ambush, this is a good place.

In the valley, there is only a small path between the mountain stream and the mud road, which can be passed by soldiers and horses.

If it is used to ambush, it will definitely cause losses to the passing Jiaozhi soldiers and horses.

Can.
How many people can the Han army send to ambush?

Lei Lan thought hard, according to Gao Xiangguo's calculations, the Han army is now plagued by poisonous insects.

Even if there is no fear of life, it must be rested.

Even if we can still gather some combatable soldiers, how many can there be?
How much combat power is left of these barely mobile Han troops?

Cochin is hot and humid, dense forests are overgrown, and the weird poisonous insects are the enemy of the Han army who have never set foot in Cochin!
According to Gao Xiangguo's analysis, at this time the Han army had no more than a few thousand people capable of fighting at most, so General Zhang led the army to defeat the enemy.

After thinking about the stakes, Lei Lan suddenly had a very bold idea in his heart.

Follow the plan and take the initiative to lie down.

I have 8000 people on hand, and I can separate 2000 people to ambush Taniguchi.

The remaining 6000 people, as long as they enter the valley carefully, even if they are ambushed, with the number of available soldiers and horses of the Han army, the loss will not be too great.

But if the Han army comes out of the valley and deliberately pursues them, it will inevitably pay a huge price.

If these thousands of Han army ambush soldiers can be taken down, there will not be many soldiers to fight in the Han army camp at Vung Tau Port.

It is almost powerless to resist!
Afterwards, with the momentum of a great victory, he directly used the superiority of his troops to forcibly attack the camp.
This battle is certain!

Lei Lan looked up at the clear sky, with white clouds floating and a few birds flying by.

He has made up his mind.

Just do it!

If the Han army ambush and chase them out, the Han army's vital forces can be wiped out.

If the Han army does not pursue, then its own losses will be smaller, and it will be able to take advantage of the fact that the two armies are at war to find out the reality of the Han army.

Lei Lan immediately led the army, starting with 100 people, and the remaining 900 people were hanging a hundred steps away from the vanguard soldiers, and gradually penetrated into the Wutu Valley.

This is also done to make his mid ambush look more real.

There is clearly a valley that is easy to set up an ambush, how could any general not send some vanguard troops to scout the way first?

As Zhang Yiping guessed, Li Jingji chose to set up an ambush.

The location of the ambush was exactly the same as Lei Lan guessed, it was in Wutu Valley.

Li Jingji and the 5000 men in his hands were all in ambush in the middle of Wutu Valley.

Ambushes in this middle section, even if the enemy finds the ambush, it will be difficult for them to retreat in time.

Li Jingji waited for the opportunity, only to see that the vanguard sent by Lei Lan was already approaching.

Seeing the thousands of soldiers and horses behind the vanguard, he sighed in his heart, the general of the feudal kingdom is quite capable, and he even knew how to send someone to scout the way.

Seeing the vanguard approaching a few more steps, Li Jingji immediately drew out his weapon and ordered:
"Soldiers, attack, kill!"

With one order, rolling stones fell from the valley.

A random smash has little effect.

Wutu Valley is not suitable for Rolling Stones, but it has a huge momentum, which really adds a lot of momentum to the ambush of the Han army. Thousands of soldiers in Jiaozhi seem to have fallen into chaos.

"kill!!"

The Han army under Li Jingji also shouted one after another, and immediately killed the vanguard with hundreds of people, and then moved towards the main force of thousands of people.

Seeing this, Lei Lan quickly turned around and fled to the entrance where he came and went.

"It ran away?"

Li Jingji led his troops to chase and kill them for a while, and even beheaded 11 of them himself, but in the end, he had too few soldiers to swallow all the Cochin troops.

"Continue to chase??"

Seeing that Taniguchi was approaching, Li Jingji thought for a moment, and first sent a small soldier back to the camp to report, and then said:
"There is a saying in the art of war, avoid its vigor, and attack its emotion."

"Now the enemy is retreating in embarrassment and has no fighting spirit. It is suitable for our army to fight against chaos."

"Chasing the enemy!! Kill!!!"

Li Jingji continued to chase and kill the defeated army, while Lei Lan left many wounded along the way, took the defeated army and fled towards the direction where the ambush was set.

The Han army has been tricked!
Lei Lan was secretly happy, my plan has been accomplished!
At the expense of casualties, he lured the soldiers of the Han army to chase after him, and finally achieved his goal!

As long as you get to the place, you will be able to plan an ambush and counter-kill until you completely annex the Han army, the only viable force.

But seeing Li Jingji chasing into a dense forest, his heart skipped a beat.

While looking around, the Cochin general who was being chased stopped, raised his gun and shouted:

"Soldiers, attack, kill!"

Hearing this inexplicably familiar sentence, Li Jingji was terrified, but he remained calm in the face of danger.

"Defend on both sides, the front army becomes the rear army, the rear army becomes the front army, fight and retreat!!"

"Keep the formation, kill the ambushes who attack the formation first!"

Li Jingji took the lead and immediately beheaded a cochin ambush soldier, trying his best to mobilize the soldiers.

But in the end, this defeat could not be avoided.

Lei Lan took advantage of the situation to fight back and pursued all the way.

He didn't stop until one of the generals stepped forward:
"General, is the Han army a fraudulent defeat?"

Lei Lan was stunned for a moment.

The Han army feigned defeat, and then they feigned defeat and feigned defeat, and then the Han army feigned defeat and feigned defeat?
He really thought about it for a while. After all, Emperor Han's record since he ascended the throne is really terrifying.

Even if Emperor Han did not personally lead the troops this time, the generals who could be entrusted with important tasks by Emperor Han must not be mediocre.

And he also saw that even if he was in ambush, the Han general was able to rectify the troops in the midst of the chaotic army, which can be said to be well-founded and quite capable.

"probably not."

Raylan thought to himself.

He had seen it just now, the defeat of the Han army didn't look like a fake, it couldn't be truer.

Besides, what is the purpose of fraudulent defeat?
To show the enemy weakness, to be proud of the enemy, to attack the enemy unprepared...

The purpose of all this must be based on the fact that in addition to this defeated army, the Han army also has soldiers that can fight.

But does the Han army have one?
When the poisonous insects were rampant, the Han army's new force was obviously just that.

Maybe even the Emperor Han was sick, otherwise how could it be this strange general who led the troops?

"Keep chasing!"

Lei Lan already had a plan in mind, as long as he wiped out the only living force of the Han army, he would have nothing to fear.

However, he also kept an eye out and sent someone to report to Zhang Yiping:

"You quickly report to General Zhang, and say that our troops have killed the Han army's capable soldiers, so that the general can drive straight in and take the Han army camp at Vung Tau Port."

Not long after, someone reported to Zhang Yiping, Zhang Yiping heard Lei Lan's battle report being read, but his heart skipped a beat.

"The Han army will definitely not be so easy to deal with."

"Even though the Han army is plagued by poisonous insects, our army has not figured out the actual strength of the Han army. If the Han army is strong, how much strength can it still hold?"

"And those sailors, if they have been on the ship and are plagued by land poisonous insects, what should they do?"

"If the Han army who set up an ambush and chased after the enemy, and was defeated again, did it on purpose, wouldn't it be a trap?"

Zhang Yiping slapped his thigh fiercely, made a decisive decision, and ordered the army to move out:
"Pass down the general's order, march quickly, and support General Leilan!"

Zhang Yiping shook the long knife in his hand, and sighed:
"Raylan is confused!"

"Li Jingji is confused!"

Liu Ke, who was in the camp at Vung Tau Port, also received a letter at this time.

What the hell, Li Jingji set up an ambush, and the ambush was successful, and he still wanted to pursue the defeated Jiaozhi army.

Is this reliable?

You're about to lose, that's normal, just to lure the enemy with your defeat.

But if you want to win, it must be that the enemy is cheating to lure the enemy.

"But it was defeated anyway."

Liu Ke didn't think too much about it. Li Jingji was not only defeated in every battle, but also had a well-founded basis for advancing and retreating.

Even if he loses, it is unlikely to be a big defeat. On the contrary, it is just what he wants, and it would be good to send thousands of people to support him.

And it's just right to feign defeat and lure the Cochin soldiers to attack.

"Ambush in the plan, intentionally in the ambush, and set up an ambush in reverse"

Liu Ke squinted his eyes, kept thinking about the situation on the battlefield, and said to himself:
"It seems that the Cochin general is quite courageous. I'm afraid that after repelling Li Jingji, he might come to attack the camp by relying on a big victory."

"After all, from the perspective of the Jiaozhi side, most of the Han soldiers are sick soldiers at this time."

"After tasting all the herbs, I have to focus my energy on the military."

Liu Ke's eyes flickered, the chance of victory is today.

He immediately called and turned into rain:

"My military order, the soldiers should not sleep tonight, hide in the boat, and strictly prevent the enemy from attacking the camp."

"Still the same as before, pay attention to fire prevention"
-
It's misty tonight.

Lei Lan personally took the remaining [-] soldiers and horses, each of them took the title, and the horse plucked the bell, and walked all the way into the Han army camp in Vung Tau, without anyone noticing.

"kill!!"

The Cochin soldiers lit up their torches one after another, and followed Lei Lan towards the Han army.

Attacking the camp is different from conventional warfare. It is necessary to burn the camp to cause chaos, and then slowly reap the lives of the Han army.

Lei Lan took the lead and broke through the guards of the Han army.

But after rushing into the camp, there were more than a hundred people in the center of the camp, beating gongs and drums.

Then all kinds of fire extinguishing equipment came out, and immediately extinguished most of the torches in their hands.

Afterwards, there were countless soldiers of the Han army shouting loudly, and came to kill Lei Lan and his troops.

"Not good, I got caught!!!"

With a loud cry, Lei Lan quickly ordered the troops to withdraw from the camp.

However, he was not as calm as Li Jingji, and he was already flustered.

In the dark night, if the generals were in chaos, the troops would also be in chaos. On the contrary, it was their own people who blocked their retreat, making it difficult to withdraw in time.

"Quickly back! Quickly back out!"

Lei Lan shouted hoarsely, but the shouts of the surrounding Han soldiers became louder and louder.

The Han army ambushed all their troops, and all of them came to kill Lei Lan's troops who were huddled together.

"Lei Lan, you have fallen, don't fight in the corner, if you surrender with courtesy, I will protect your life!"

Liu Ke was driving a donkey cart, holding a chessboard in his hand, and shouted.

He wanted to gather one or two cochin generals.

It can not only draw people's hearts together, but also make full gestures.

It is also not advisable to blindly kill.

This Lei Lan is indeed capable. Although Li Jingji has been defeated in every battle, he still has a command of 76, and he is really brave enough to be more than enough as a partial general.

Lei Lan turned a deaf ear to Liu Kezhi's words, and fought bloody by himself.

He boasted that he was a talented man in the country, and Zhang Yiping had clearly warned him to beware of ambushes, but he was still in ambush, and he would be ridiculed from then on.

Although he is besieged now, he is not without the power to fight. Even if he wants to surrender, he has to wait until he is completely defeated and captured before surrendering, right?
Soon his chance to surrender came.

All the soldiers and horses under his command were crowded together, and the Han army, which had been prepared for a long time, swarmed up and took advantage of the situation to kill and kill.

Raylan was already preparing to shout surrender.

But at this moment, a shout pierced the dark sky:

"General Lei, don't panic, Zhang Yiping is here!!!"

"General!!"

Lei Lan was overjoyed when he heard Zhang Yiping's voice.

General Zhang is worthy of being a famous general in the country, how many times stronger than this talented man in the country? !

Not only Lei Lan was heartbroken, but even the soldiers under his command cheered up again.

Liu Ke didn't expect that someone would come to disrupt the situation even though he was already caught in the urn.

Seeing in the darkness, he couldn't see the number of enemy troops clearly, and he was afraid that he would burn himself by lighting too many torches, so he had to stop the momentum for the time being, and just chased and killed slowly.

And Zhang Yiping, who led the troops to help, had no intention of fighting, but just led troops to meet Lei Lan's troops, and was always on guard against the Han army.

Even so, this time the Han army can also be called a great victory, with more than a thousand prisoners, three thousand beheaded, and countless scattered and fled.

Even with Zhang Yiping's support, Lei Lan's army might be running out.
