One thousand three hundred and ninety-two yuan let design ambush Gongming
Xu Huang summoned a lot of strange troops outside Lanling City, set up long-range strike positions, and prepared to launch an attack on Lanling City. The defenders in Lanling City were in panic all day long, and three letters of help were sent to Xiahou Dun, and finally, Xiahou Dun came.
"Where has Xiahou Dun's troops arrived? He is rushing all night?"
"General, Xiahou Dun's troops repaired for half a day in the afternoon, and then rushed to the night!"
"This..." Xu Huang frowned and turned his eyes to the young staff officer on one side: "Pusheng, what do you think?"
"There are two reasons that Xiahou Dun chose to travel at night. One may be to avoid our army's obstruction, and the other may be to lure our army to obstruct and then launch a counter-ambush!"
"We all have to use the night, but you must be sure Xiahou Dun doesn't know our ability to detect at night? Even if he doesn't know, there will be a strange man telling him that it is very unfavorable to him when fighting with our army at night. This... is weird, and weird!"
"The general said very much. Although our army's ability to detect battlefields at night is stronger than that of Cao's army, it is undoubtedly beneficial for Xiahou Dun to hide his tracks. Compared to the daytime, there are more variables at night. Xiahou Dun obviously does not want to fight a war upright, because he is afraid of losses and is afraid that the battle in Linyi will eventually become the same as Guangling."
"Well, it makes sense, but why did Xu Chu, who was not far away, stop moving? There were no additional troops in Xia Pi?"
"This is something at the grand strategic level. We don't know the situation, but the Chief of Staff said that there is no need to consider the reinforcements from Xu Chu and Xia Pi."
Xu Huang pinched his chin and looked at the fire in front of him and leaned against him. The reflected flames in his eyes were leaping.
"Anyway, Xiahou Dun hopes that we will come and fight this battle! At night!"
"Yes."
"So can we keep our troops waiting for work?"
"This will give Xiahou Dun the opportunity to raid our friendly forces!"
"You mean the Inhuman Force?"
"Yes, Xiahou Dun's time is very good. At his speed, he will arrive near Lanling in the early morning. If our army does not stop him immediately, he may first take the Yi Ren troops that have gathered."
"Oh, a good idea. This is forcing us to go forward to fight. Xiahou Dun is really a famous general. He only cleverly used one time tactic to control our choices. It's amazing!"
"Xiahou Dun's idea is indeed good. But everything has its pros and cons. Xiahou Dun chose to fight at night, and the risk has also increased. If our army's reconnaissance discovers him first, then the damage in the night will definitely be much heavier than during the day. And our army will also have the advantage in night battles."
"This...how are you sure?"
"The control and command regulations of the night battlefield are also determined by the enemy."
"What if they have it?"
Xu Huang's eyes flashed with the light of wisdom. At this moment, Xu Huang felt that his intelligence must be increasing.
"Do they have it? How could it be... General is talking about Yiren? There are Yiren in their troops who are specifically responsible for communication and reconnaissance?"
"Yes, it's true that the marshals joining the queue are more commanding, but what if they are not marshal? It's just used as a messenger and a reconnaissance, so that the marshals can form a different system? I remember that the lord did this before, and he was dealing with Cao Cao."
"Yes. It is the brothers Cao Cao and Xiahou that they may learn it. Then the reason they chose the night battle is more sufficient. If we did not expect this, it would be possible that they would design it in turn!"
"Design? Oh, you mean real-time battlefield trap?!"
"Yes, Yi Ren has this ability!"
"I understand! I understand!"
................
"Have the scout discovered it?"
"General, the enemy is fifteen miles away, moving closer to me along the avenue, without any change!"
Xiahou Dun squinted his eyes and thought, his body swaying rhythmically as the horses ran. The sounds made by the cavalry team when they were running in the middle of the night were very loud. Xiahou Dun even felt that he could hear the sound of enemy cavalry advancing.
"General..."
"I was a little uneasy when the enemy came out so honestly!"
At the moment of the battle, Xiahou Dun suddenly hesitated a little. This is not a good phenomenon.
"General, have you begun to arrange the battlefield?"
"Design the battlefield? No, no, no, there is no need to arrange it. Once we stop, it will arouse the vigilance of the enemy. If they just block the road but don't attack, then our plans will be lost. Maybe they can set up the battlefield and force us to attack!"
"This...what should I do?"
"Let the leader of the Inhuman come to see me."
"promise!"
Xiahou Dun's troops did not stop, and still maintained their cruise speed, running on the straight road, as if they had made up their minds to have an encounter with Xu Huang.
Xiahou Dun immediately discussed with Yi Ren for a long time, but no one knew what he said.
................
"Have the enemy stopped or slowed down? "Pusheng."
"Not at all, it seems they are really going to get a battlefield trap."
"Your dragonflies have already targeted them? Where are their scouts?"
"If you keep an eye on it, the scout will soon enter the range of the fight. There are indeed strange people in Xiahou Dun's queue. When the scout comes to fight, it should be able to confirm this."
“How much distance is there?”
"Fifteen miles, the scout will soon get into the battle!"
"Send an elite team to reinforce the scouts, be sure to kill all the enemy scouts in the first wave!"
"promise!"
The scouts of both sides began to fight about ten miles. Scouts were usually tentative attacks, mainly fighting for control of battlefield intelligence and evaluating the opponent's attributes. However, Xiahou Dun's scout did not expect that Xu Huang actually sent an elite attack team behind the scout. Once the fight took place, Xiahou Dun's scout suffered heavy losses, and even the aliens among them were killed. From a distance, both sides could see the white light column that reached the sky.
"So intense?" Xiahou Dun looked at the dazzling light in the distance in confusion, and his brows quickly frowned. What does Xu Huang mean? He wanted to extinguish his scout with all his strength. Is this the rhythm of a fierce attack?
"Let the scouts report on the situation of the enemy!"
Before Xiahou Dun's voice fell, the messenger had already run towards him: "General, the enemy has accelerated. The whole army is accelerating and is moving towards me quickly!"
"Accelerate!? OK, please send the whole army to speed up and meet. Be prepared to fight and let Yiren act as planned!"
Xiahou Dun ordered excitedly, it seemed that Xu Huang had not discovered anything. He should have wanted to rely on their so-called night battle advantage and try to defeat himself in one fell swoop! Very well, let's see who defeated whom this time!
In the dark night, the cavalry on both sides had been exposed, so there was no need to hide anything. Both sides set up torches. From the air, the troops of both sides were approaching quickly like two fire dragons. They were about to collide.
The sound of horse hooves hit the heart, like a strong rhythm of war drum. The stormy people's hearts were filled with blood, and the surging cavalry was like a torrent, running in the darkness, vowing to crush all obstacles in front of them!
"Preparation, skill preparation! Bow and arrow preparation!"
"The heavy crossbow is shot forward and release it!"
"Slow down! Steer quickly!"
Xiahou Dun was excited to cast the trap skill, and then let the alien spread and set up battlefield traps around him. Who knew that Xu Huang would activate the heavy crossbow outside the range, and then turned his head and ran towards the wasteland on the left. Is he planning to seize the periphery?
Xiahou Dun was very angry! He didn't dare to rush to the formation but he looked like he was rushing to the formation. It was hateful! But this did not exceed Xiahou Dun's prediction!
"Continue to implement the plan! Chase!"
Whoosh...
The crossbow arrows were spilled from the darkness, and Xiahou Dun's cavalry could only blindly hold up the shield in their hands. As for whether they could be blocked, only God knew.
"Ah! Uh..."
"Xilulu~"
Although the losses were not very heavy, there were indeed casualties. Xiahou Dun gritted his teeth: "Keep the formation well, double dragon formation, and pursue!"
When Xiahou Dun was chasing, the strangers began to scatter everywhere, preparing to set up traps around the battlefield. However, they soon discovered that they, who originally thought no one would pay attention, were targeted by the scouts around the battlefield. The scattered strangers quickly became the target of these scouts. Outside the battlefield, the light of the strangers was shining from time to time.
The strange people didn't dare to leave the brigade too far, so they could only follow the cavalry team while setting up traps, hoping that Xiahou Dun would drive Xu Huang back to this area!
Unfortunately, this trick must be based on the situation where the enemy does not know the truth. Since Xu Huang can arrange a scout team to chase Yi Ren, how could he not think of what Yi Ren is doing!
No matter how Xiahou Dun chased and drove away, Xu Huang just didn't look back. Xiahou Dun divided his troops and chased him in a hurry. Xu Huang retreated back to the straight road and set a distance away from Xiahou Dun. If Xiahou Dun chased him slowly, Xu Huang would take advantage of Xiahou Dun with his range advantage. If Xiahou Dun stopped chasing him, Xu Huang would be happy to stand from afar and not take the initiative to attack!
Xiahou Dun chased after a long time and suffered a lot of casualties, he finally understood. It turned out that Xu Huang had already understood his trap. He was just here to play tricks on him. Xiahou Dun really couldn't figure out how Xu Huang knew his plan. Could it be that Yi Ren leaked it?
Xiahou Dun thought about this and it was useless. The problem now is that Xu Huang was not fooled and kept a distance and slowly grindled Xiahou Dun's soldiers to death. It seems that it is impossible to defeat Xu Huang in the night battle. Xiahou Dun had no choice but to go to Lanling first and lift the siege of Lanling.
Seeing that Xiahou Dun was not in a hurry to attack, Xu Huang was not in a hurry. He just kept a distance in front of Xu Huang and used small teams to conduct heavy crossbow raids from time to time, but because he did not dare to bully him too much, the effect was not very good.
The two armies were chasing and fighting forward, and they were getting closer and closer to Lanling. It was approaching early morning, and the night around them was even deeper.
Xiahou Dun kept the pressure on Xu Huang. He wanted to stick to Xu Huang and did not want Xu Huang to leave his sight to save the recurrence. Suddenly, Xiahou Dun looked around as if he was aware, but because the torches around him were bright, Xiahou Dun's vision was seriously affected.
It was pitch black and there was nothing to see, but Xiahou Dun felt a sense of uneasiness growing in his heart, as if in this darkness, some man-eating beasts were ambushing them. They were looking at themselves with their bloodthirsty eyes. Xiahou Dun felt that the hairs behind him were standing up. (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
