After hearing this, Liao Qinghui felt emotional and said, "Why didn't I think of that?" Then he said to Gu Ao, "I understand."

Gu Ao nodded: "Yongchi thought that he was sure of winning. It is said in "Bing Lue" that 'ten times the enemy's, encircle and annihilate them'. Isn't the tiger and ben now ten times the size of our army? As long as the tiger and ben complete the encirclement, the Han army will It's like a turtle in a urn. But can he surround it? As long as one mouth is not sealed, his cavalry is not as good as mine, and there are still many infantry in the tiger's base. The 20 troops move clumsily, and I can make fun of it."

Liao Qinghui said: "Yes, then I will start making arrangements."

Gu Ao nodded.

And on the other side of the battlefield... Yong Chi got up early this day before dawn, and he was on the alert all night, not sleeping soundly.Someone reported last night, "There are 3000 Han cavalry out of the camp!"

Yong Chi sat up from the camp couch: "Where did you go?"

The scout said: "Going to the east!"

Yong Chi hurriedly asked people to take out the map, and he couldn't help wondering: "What is there in the east, there is nothing, my convoy transporting food is in the north, the army of [-] troops is in the south, and there are some farmlands in the east." When the candlelight was lit, some of the staff couldn't sleep. Hearing the sound of the light, they came to Yongchi's tent and asked the guards, "Has the emperor not gone to bed yet?"

Yong Chi glanced at the door and said, "Come in."

The staff member entered the tent and said, "Your Majesty, there is a military situation? Do you want to call people to discuss it?"

Yong Chi was wearing a thin robe, pacing in the tent with his hands behind his back, thinking: "As long as we wait until tomorrow, when both our army and the front and rear armies arrive, we can attack back and forth and surround the main force of the Han army. What do the 3000 people want to do? Is it Gu Ao who sent out suspicious soldiers? Want to lead me to send troops to pursue them?"

Hearing the aide's words, Yong Chi came back to his senses, waved his hand, and said: "The march at night is not stable, let someone investigate again!"

"Report—the original 3000 people, including the King of Han, are now using soldiers to blackmail big households and grab food!"

Yong Chi's eyes widened: "Gu Ao is here too, did you see clearly?" Then he sneered: "Snatching food? Humph... he's only so successful in the end!" After saying that, he said to the staff: "Call the former general Come!"

"Yes!"

A general from Huben hurriedly arrived at Yongchi's tent, and Yongchi ordered the staff to briefly explain the situation, then walked to the map, and pointed out: "The former general is under orders, you immediately take eight thousand night cavalry, and bypass the Han army's camp from the north. , rush to the north of this county, deter the Han army from a distance, cut off its way out to the north, and prevent any fish from slipping through the net. Wait for my order tomorrow, and don't attack tonight. Once you attack, the Han army will definitely retreat. The night is getting dark. I am worried about them There is an ambush on the way back."

"Yes!"

General Huben took the order to go, and another scout came to report: "The 3000 people of the Han army have attacked the county government. I heard that the county master has also been arrested, and he is asked to preside over the distribution of land to the poor peasants."

Yong Chi sneered: "The march of the Han army is at stake now, and Gu Ao still has the mind to engage in these fancy things!"

"Report... Han Wang and his party of 1000 people have returned to the camp!"

Yong Chi said in his heart: "I don't care what tricks you play, anyway, as long as tomorrow, the encirclement will be formed, and it will be difficult for you to fly!" Yong Chi took a nap later, and before falling asleep, he thought subconsciously: How will Gu Ao solve this situation?Tomorrow, is he really going to kill himself...

"Report—report—not good!"

"What's the matter, making a lot of noise?"

It was noisy outside, Yong Chi squinted his eyes, took the towel offered by the sergeant nearby, wiped his face, and someone whispered: "The emperor is up, let's go in."

The scout scrambled into the big tent and said: "Your Majesty, it's not good. I don't know who spread the rumor last night, and now it's spread everywhere... saying that as long as you follow the King of Han, you will have land distribution wherever you go. Now refugees from this county have come to this county from all directions! Now the county is full of refugees! The rear army was blocked by the refugees, and several times the letters could not be delivered. And the troops transporting food also met the refugees! The path is also narrow, blocked by refugees, making it difficult to walk!"

Yong Chi was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized—he thought to himself last night, "How will Gu Ao solve this situation..." It turned out that yesterday, Gu Ao sent 3000 people to grab food. It's not to go north to break through, but to spread rumors!Lure the refugees here - muddy the waters!

Furious, Yong Chi threw the towel on the ground: "A group of idiots! Can the food delivery team be blocked by refugees? What do the elite tigers eat? Those who dare to stand in the way die! Send cavalry to rush and disperse them! "

"Your Majesty doesn't know that there are many bandits among those refugees. Many of them carry weapons, but they are not too afraid of the officers and soldiers. When the officers and soldiers arrive, they disperse, and when they leave, they gather again. And All the generals are waiting for a decisive battle with the Han army, and dare not spend more force to kill the refugees."

Yong Chi was furious: "A group of undecided refugees, when they first gathered, they should be taken as a deterrent. How dare they gather? It's not too late now. I have ordered that as long as there are refugees gathering places, Tiger Ben will immediately attack !"

"Yes!"

In the camp of the Han army, all the troops were ready to go. At this time, there was a dark song to report: "King of Han! Huben has begun to slaughter the refugees! The refugees are fleeing, and the tigers are chasing after them, and the formation is out of order!"

Gu Ao said: "Okay! The generals obey the order, the tigers are scattered, it's the right time, I'll break through to the north!"

"Yes!"

On the battlefield where the blood flowed like rivers from the tigers, the refugees ran and trampled on each other... At this moment, the cavalry of the Han army thundered, rushed out of the camp, and headed north.Huben was not unprepared, the machine crossbow was ready, and they shot arrows at the Han army together, all arrows were fired!Many people in the Han army fell off their horses, but more people fought against Huben in the north!The horses of the Western Regions of the Han army are faster, stronger, and have stirrups, so the Han army can wear thicker armor and better unite the horse and man.The horses of the tiger and berth are inferior, and there is no stirrup, so many blades are shaken off the horse as soon as they meet.

For a moment, there was a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood on the battlefield, breaking through Huben's cavalry, followed by Huben's infantry, and the Han cavalry rushed over quickly like chopping melons and vegetables.Although Huben had an army of 20, only 5 were deployed in the places attacked by the Northern Army. Under the impact of 5 Han cavalry, these [-] people were killed or injured, and the front line was immediately pulled. There was a bloody mouth!

The opening of this crossing not only failed Yongchi's encirclement plan, but also opened up the road leading to the north!

"Where's Liao Qinghui?" Gu Ao asked.

Liao Qinghui turned his head again and again, and when he heard the call of the herald, he rode his horse and caught up with Gu Ao, his face was covered with blood, and the knife wound was wounded.

Gu Ao said, "Why did you fall behind?"

Liao Qinghui had tears in his eyes: "There are many wounded soldiers behind, and the horses can still run on their backs, but they slowed down..."

Gu Ao's face was also stained with blood, and he said: "We can't wait for them. Today we use small things to make big gains. This is a dangerous move for soldiers. There must be no mistakes. We must speed up...cough..." Gu Ao pressed the wound, Liao Qinghui hurriedly said: "...Han Wang?"

Gu Ao calmed down and said, "...give the order, speed up."

"Yes!"

Banners were waving, Gu Ao took people with him, there were less than 2000 people left in his party, he got rid of the tiger in half an hour, and came to the north. At this time, there were scattered Han cavalry in the distance. Of the group of [-] horses, there are only [-] riders left.

"Han King!"

"Han King!"

At this time, there were refugees running from the road in the distance. They seemed to be driven away. They ran sparsely, and many of them had blood on their bodies.

The speed of the Han army team slowed down, and Gu Ao noticed that the pain in his shoulders and abdomen was getting worse, and his forehead was dripping with sweat. The convoy is gone... Go! Take them down!"

"Yes!"

The Han army passed through the refugees and attacked the food convoy in Huben. For a while, the commander of the guard food team had no time to react, and was shot to death by several arrows from the Yu family who had been lurking among the refugees for a long time. The guard food team had no leader, and was quickly dispersed by the Han army. The whole process was almost without a pause, and it was done in one go.

The Han army quickly divided the grain and supplemented the army's rations. At this time, the refugees who had been hiding everywhere because of the grain transport guards' drive away, also popped up one after another, and came to fetch food under the call of the Han army.

Anqu from the Yu family hurriedly found a closed carriage in the grain transportation team, helped Gu Ao into the carriage, and Gu Ao sent an order to the outside: "Go on, don't delay for a moment!"

"Yes!"

The carriage was rushing, and in the bumping, the Yu family secretly took out the small bag that they had always prepared, Gu Ao untied the thin armor by himself, but saw that the clothes were bleeding, Gu Ao asked: "How many people are missing today?"

The Anqu replied: "Today, three people are at General Liao's place, nine people are in ambush here, and nine people are following the King of Han. The one who followed the King of Han is the only one left. The others are not injured."

Gu Ao smiled wryly, watching him help him stop the bleeding, sprinkle medicine powder, and bandage the wound: "...it's hard for you."

That Anqu kowtowed and said: "If you fail to protect the health of the King of Han, the little one is guilty."

Gu Ao shook his head: "Many generals in Huben recognize me, and all their knives greet me." Gu Ao laughed, and the wound oozes blood again: "I dragged Yongchi for a day, your lord It will win one more day." Gu Ao seemed to be talking to himself: "Yuyang wins, and it is Yongchi who is anxious, not me."

After the wound was bandaged, Gu Ao washed his face with water, put on the fine armor again, and stepped on the horse again.
