Chapter 726 Repeating the same old tricks
One general is brave and the three armies are strong.
This principle is universal everywhere. Faced with the sudden approach of the Liaodong Tigers, Liu Chong not only remained calm, but also regarded the Liaodong Tigers as his own military exploits, and wanted to step on the Liaodong Tigers and get a promotion.
The news got out.
The morale of the Mongolian and Yuan soldiers in the entire Xingshishan camp suddenly stabilized. The pride of the fighting nation instantly spread throughout the bodies and minds of all the soldiers.
Regarding defensive preparations, we have gone to the extreme.
Liu Chong hoarded a large amount of stones, wood, and arrows on the mountain. The soldiers had nothing else to do, so they told each other and encouraged each other.
"We are a fighting nation, overwhelming the Han people, and the Goguryeo people have become the overlords of the Northeast. Why are we afraid of the Liaodong Tiger? Let's fight him."
"That's right. We Mengyuan people are born warriors. What a Liaodong tiger, this time we let him break his teeth on our Xingshi Mountain."
On the entire Xingshi Mountain, there seemed to be a tiger roaring, eyes wide open and tail wagging, ready to fight the Liaodong tiger.
............
The flag with the word "Wu" fluttering in the wind. The large group of people moved forward along the road. Spies were scattered around the group, listening for any signs of trouble to prevent being ambushed.
Wu Nian and Guan Jinhan rode horses and walked side by side.
After listening to the spies' report, Wu Nian turned to Guan Jinhan and said: "Liu Zhixing and I thought that if I suddenly came out, we could knock down the mountain and frighten the tiger. It would shake Liu Chong, the guard of Xingshi Mountain, and panic the defenders on the mountain.
At a loss.”
"Then we can seize Xingshi Mountain in a battle. Let you guard the mountain peak and guard Xingshi Road. Block the direct connection between Guangyang Mansion and Huanglong Mansion. This way I can free up my hands and concentrate on dealing with Wan Yanxian, Jin Ruiyun, and Hou Wancheng."
"Unexpectedly, this Liu Chong not only did not waver, but instead stood firm in the camp, stabilized the morale of the army, and started a war with me."
"This guy is no ordinary person."
"Now, we have to reach Xingshi Mountain first, wait and see the terrain, adapt measures to local conditions, and find a way to defeat Liu Chong."
"That's what the general said." Guan Jinhan's face was also extremely solemn.
They tried their best to make a move, but the opponent took it easily. This Liu Chong was called the number one general of the Han Dynasty, and his reputation was not in vain.
I'm afraid that if I go up against him directly, I may not be able to win.
But Guan Jinhan quickly cheered up and turned to look at Wu Nian. Fortunately, the general was there, and his force was fully guaranteed.
The army moved forward and successfully arrived near Xingshi Mountain.
Wu Nian already knew the topography of Xingshi Mountain, but he had never seen it with his own eyes. He had already made plans on how to set up camp in Xingshi Mountain.
Wu Nian and Guan Jinhan led four soldiers from one thousand households and set up camp on the Elephant Trunk Mountain in the south of Xingshi Mountain. The two sides faced each other across a wide road.
Wu Nian arranged for the remaining 6,000 soldiers to camp in a nearby valley called Lieliu Valley.
no way.
There is no large place nearby that can accommodate his tens of thousands of soldiers, so he can only divide his troops.
morning.
It was freezing cold, and the north wind was howling. The soldiers had taken measures to keep warm, but their faces and hands were still red from the cold, and they were busy building camps and fortifications.
Although they have many people and are in an offensive position.
but.
The change of offense and defense will be as fast as lightning. They may also be suddenly attacked by Liu Chong or Chunyuan's reinforcements. Being prepared for defense in advance is a basic skill.
To strike the iron, you must be hard-working.
"Send someone to cook hot soup and distribute it to the soldiers." Wu Nian stood on a stone, looked around at the hard-working soldiers, felt very sympathetic for them, and turned to tell a soldier next to him.
.
"Yes." The soldier responded, turned around and went down.
Wu Nian and Guan Jinhan came to the highest point of the camp and looked at the terrain of Xingshi Mountain opposite.
The two frowned at the same time.
"Hearing is true, seeing is believing. General, I am not saying that I am discouraged. If this mountain is attacked by force, even if you give me 50,000 people and let me fight for two years, I may not be able to conquer it."
Guan Jinhan felt a chill in his heart and his face looked ugly.
"Yeah." Wu Nian also nodded solemnly.
The two faced the howling north wind and thought of countermeasures.
"General, how about I send someone to Liu Chong to invite the generals to fight and decide the winner?" Guan Jinhan thought for a long time, came up with a solution that was not a solution, and said with his hand.
"With all due respect, Lieutenant Guan, I'm afraid you are no match for Liu Chong. And now that I'm here, what if I pretend to be you and go into battle and kill him?"
"Look at the formation Liu Chong put up, he never thought about going into battle."
Wu young man shook his head lightly, stretched out his hand and pointed at Liu Chong's camp on Xingshi Mountain in front of him. He was really armed to the teeth.
What a tight turtle shell.
At this moment, Wu Nian truly understood the difficulties of Jin Huan Mountain back then.
It's so cool to have a mountain to defend.
Guan Jinhan looked up at the opposite side again and sighed softly.
"Guan Xiaowei. I have an idea." Wu Nian reached out and patted Guan Jinhan on the shoulder. The two of them turned around and walked towards the big tent.
"General, please give me your instructions." Guan Jinhan perked up and said with clasped fists.
"When I attacked Huanglong Mansion, I used a divisive trick to have the Meng Yuan people in Anding County tie up their governor Qin Zhen. I learned this later, I didn't know it at the time."
"This time, I'm going to imitate the cat and imitate the tiger. Let Liu Chong and the Meng Yuan commander in the camp become suspicious and kill each other. What do you think?"
Wu Nian turned his head, with a smile on his face.
"It's worth a try." Guan Jinhan's eyes lit up. He had also heard about this matter. He was indeed a master. Isn't Liu Chong opposite him also a Han?
When the two came to the big tent, they called the civil servants in the army and asked them to write letters. The two took off their armor and warmed themselves by the fire.
Soon after, the civil servant wrote the sample letter. After Wu Nian took a look at it, he was very satisfied.
The content is very simple. As long as Liu Chong can surrender, he will make him a captain and command tens of thousands of troops.
The letter has been written. But how to shoot it up is a problem. Xingshi Mountain is not Anding City. Standing at the foot of the mountain, you cannot shoot the letter up the mountain with an arrow.
After thinking for a while, Wu Nian raised his head and said to Guan Jinhan: "Guan Xiaowei, prepare two teams of armored soldiers who are not afraid of death. They can reach up from the east and west mountain roads."
"Liu Chong will definitely place secret sentries on the road. When the secret sentries find them, they will leave a letter and escape back on their own."
"Yes." After hearing this, Guan Jinhan felt that this method was sound, so he immediately nodded and stood up, and went down to organize the manpower.
"I hope this method will work. Now that I can change my attack and defense, it's not as fun as before. If it were before, I would just kill him as fast as I could." Wu Nian exhaled and gave a slight wry smile.
