Chapter 2338: Wang Jian’s first show
Jiuzhou Island is mainly based on mountainous terrain, with purple mountainous areas in the north, low and gentle mountains, high and steep in the south, and mountains running through vertical lines.
Why is Otomo Harue is so confident that he can block Zhou Yu with an army of 100,000? It is naturally because of the geographical advantage.
The Otomo family took advantage of the period when the Qin army did not attack and relied on Zhuzishan to build a fortress stationed in Zilian Battalion. The single-wheel defense is more than ten times stronger than the city wall.
If you can''t even stop this fortress, even if you concentrate the power of the entire Jiuzhou, you can''t stop the Qin army. It''s better to surrender as soon as possible.
Otomo Harue was waiting for the arrogant Qin and Wei coalition forces to hit the head and **** under the Zhuzi Fortress, but he never expected that Zhou Yu did not attack, but was preparing to bypass Zhuzi Fortress and attack from both sides behind.
This is just like the Maginot line of defense during World War II. France made all its efforts to build an iron fortress, but Germany did not attack at all. Instead, it used other directions as a breakthrough point and eventually launched an attack from behind, causing the entire fortress to lose its effect.
If Zhou Yu really deviates from the rear of Zhuhou Kingdom, the Purple Fortress will naturally lose its effect under the attack on both sides, and the 100,000 troops will be in danger.
Otomo Mori''s two families had 100,000 troops in the Matsuo Kingdom, occupying 80% of the troops in Kitakyushu. If they were completely wiped out by the Qin army in one battle, the Qin army would also directly sweep across Kitakyushu.
Therefore, as the famous Maori Motokura, Maori''s daimyo, must not let Zhou Yu succeed in any case. He must try every means to block him from Fenghou Kingdom.
The solution that Maori Yuanchun thought of was also very simple. Head-on combat would definitely not be able to stop the Qin army from fighting, so he sent a large number of small troops to constantly harass the Qin army, and set up a large number of traps for the Qin army on the way, and at the same time set up a battalion on the road that must be passed to intercept, hoping to delay the speed of the Qin army''s advance.
The Qin and Wei coalition forces have now divided into two groups, and the total force left in Zhuhou Kingdom is only 30,000 to 40,000.
As long as Mori Motokura could delay enough time until Otomo Haruhiko, who had annexed the Qin and Wei coalition forces of the Canghou Kingdom, would naturally win after the Kyushu locals.
But what Maori Motokura did not expect was that all the small guerrillas he sent were gone forever, and even the most elite ninja team was not on fire.
When things have developed to this point, Maori Motokura even knows that even the Qin army must have helped him, otherwise his people would never be able to train any of them. But he never expected that it would be a master at the level of the Grand Master to help the Qin army.
The traps set by Mori Motokura ordered people to set up on the way only caused some insignificant casualties to the Qin army at the beginning, and were then cracked by Wang Jian''s three thousand road exploration vanguards.
As for the camps set up on the necessary road? Without exception, Wang Jian was attacked and the six camps failed to block the Qin army''s vanguard for two days, let alone the main army behind them.
Regarding the position of pioneer, Zhou Yu was originally planning to use Chen Tang. After all, Chen Tang was the first top martial arts scholar in the Qin Dynasty, but Wang Jian stood up and took the initiative to ask for the battle.
Wang Jian had the experience of serving as the prefect of a county, and led the army many times during his tenure, repelling enemy troops from the outside and suppressing rebel bandits from the inside. He has not yet been defeated.
Compared with Wang Jian, Chen Tang is still too young even if he is the top martial arts scholar.
Out of caution, Zhou Yu ordered Wang Jian to be the vanguard, but he did not expect that this vanguard officer was a bit too fierce.
With only three thousand troops, he dared to penetrate the enemy''s hinterland, and he won many battles. He broke into six camps in two days and killed more than 7,000 Japanese troops, leaving Zhou Yu''s main force far behind.
Zhou Yu was also extremely shocked after learning the news. Even if he asked him to command himself, he might not be able to achieve the level of Wang Jian. The Wang family is still a crouching tiger and hidden dragon.
"Send the order to speed up the march. If you don''t hurry up, the battle ahead will be beaten by General Wang Jian." Zhou Yu ordered.
"No."
On the other hand, when Maori Motokura learned that his three methods of blocking the enemy did not play any role in the Qin army, and when the Qin army''s three thousand vanguards were about to kill Fenghou Kingdom, he was naturally furious.
"Waste is a bunch of waste, six strong villages, tens of thousands of troops, but three thousand Qin troops will cross as soon as they rush. What''s the use of raising you waste?"
Mori Motoharu cursed, and the four Maori samurai below and the four Maori samurai and the five Maori samurai were all ashamed. After all, they were indeed defeated too ugly.
After Maori Motochun cursed for a while, his anger disappeared a lot, so he began to think about countermeasures and decided to concentrate his troops to eliminate the three thousand vanguard troops of the Qin army.
The reason for doing this is to weaken the power of the Qin army, and to wash away the shame.
Just three thousand vanguard troops in the Qin Dynasty can be rampant in Jiuzhou. If they are not destroyed, there is no hope of defeating the Qin army.
Therefore, even in order to boost morale and strengthen the people''s desire to resist Qin, Maori Yuan must eliminate these three thousand pioneers.
At the same time, most generals in the army did not know that they had been targeted by Maori Yuanchun.
Although Wang Jian, as a pioneer general, guessed this, not only did he not care at all, but he also hoped that the Japanese army would come to him quickly. Only in this way could he make contributions quickly.
"Uncle Wang, your military strategy is really amazing. Even my father and commander may not be better than you." Yue Yun said with admiration.
Previously, he felt that Wang Jian was elected as the pioneer by the Grand Commander because of his qualifications, so he was not convinced by Wang Jian.
But after several major battles, Yue Yun was already convinced by Wang Jian''s heart, because even his most admired father Yue Fei may not be more good at fighting than Wang Jian, who is not famous.
When Xue Dingshan saw Yue Yun calling Wang Jian an uncle, he frowned and scolded, "Ayun, Wang Xianfeng is Prime Minister Wang''s uncle. If you call him uncle, wouldn''t you be the same generation as Wang Cheng? You are taking advantage of Prime Minister Wang."
Yue Yun was immediately dissatisfied and put his hands on his hips and said, "Shan Dingshan, Prime Minister Wang, he can take a boat in his belly, so how could he care about this? You don''t have to make a big deal about this."
"you…"
The two childhood friends started arguing again.
Seeing this, Wang Jian smiled and stroked his long beard, thinking that it was so good to be young, but he is not old now and still has the opportunity to make achievements.
"General, after receiving the news of the spy, the Otomo family is gathering troops. It may have been targeting us." Deputy General Chen Tanghui reported.
Although Zhou Yu did not let Chen Tang be the vanguard, he and Yue Yun were the deputy vanguards. The three thousand-person captains accompanying him were: Xue Dingshan, Mi Houwang and Chen Dao.
So, although Wang Jian has few vanguard soldiers, there are two war gods and generals.
After hearing Chen Tang''s words, a gleam flashed in Wang Jian''s eyes and he laughed and said, "I am waiting for them."
Chen Tang heard this and couldn''t help but have a bad premonition in his heart: "You don''t want to fight the main force of the Otomo family just by relying on us, right?"
"why not?"
"But the vanguard army has only less than three thousand infantry and cavalry left, and the Otomo family has at least 20,000 troops. Isn''t it too risky to fight 3,000 to 20,000?"
Chen Tang said worriedly, hoping to dispel Wang Jian''s adventure.
Wang Jian looked dissatisfied and smiled lightly: "The soldiers are in the spirit but not in the large number. Although the number of our vanguard army is smaller than that of the Japanese army, its combat power is far above the Japanese army. If the plan is done properly, even if it is 3,000 to fight 20,000, it may not be defeated."
"But…"
Chen Tang hadn''t finished speaking yet, but was interrupted by Mi Houwang on the side.
"Don''t let it go. I haven''t heard that Senior Wang has already made a strategy." Mi Houwang looked at Chen Tang with some dissatisfaction and said, "Chen Tang, you are still the top martial arts scholar, why are you so timid?"
As the first martial arts practitioner of the Qin Dynasty, Mi Houwang was naturally extremely dissatisfied with the top scholar Chen Tang, but it was useless no matter how dissatisfied. After all, even if there was no Chen Tang, there was another Chen Dao in front of him. In short, he would definitely not be the top scholar.
Chen Tang did not care about Mihou''s attitude. After some thought, he spoke, "If the general has a complete plan, he will be willing to obey orders."
Wang Jian is not surprised at all. He, a veteran, needs credit, and Chen Tangmi hopes that these young players will also need it.
He can be said to know that the competition between the younger generation is even more intense than that of the older generation.
"I have indeed had a complete solution."
As he said that, Wang Jian took out the map, pointed to the location of the vanguard army, and said, "We are now in this position, and the army of the Otomo family is now surrounding from three directions.
You said, if our army took advantage of everything and went directly to Fenghou Kingdom and directly into Feihou Kingdom, what would Maori Motokura have to react? ”
Chen Dao, who has always been taciturn, was the first to answer this time: "I will definitely stop our army at all costs."
“That’s right.”
Wang Jian couldn''t help but show his admiration when he heard this, and thought in his heart that he was worthy of being the second best martial arts player. Then he continued: "This just gives our army a chance to defeat them one by one while they have not yet joined forces."
Yue Yun, Chen Tang, Xue Dingshan, Mi Houwang, Chen Dao and others all showed surprises. They obviously had already understood Wang Jian’s intentions, but then they fell into deep thought.
As Wang Jian said, the chance of winning is indeed very high, but the risk is also very high.
If you are not careful, you may fall into a siege and be unable to escape, and eventually the entire army will be wiped out.
"md, I''m so timid that I''m so hungry that I''m so timid that I''m so brave that I''m so brave that I''m so brave." Yue Yun shouted softly.
Chen Tang, Xue Dingshan and other generals also showed their expressions of agreement, obviously they all felt that they could make a gamble.
Wang Jian''s eyes were full of admiration. It was so comfortable to take these young people to fight. It was different for young people.
“Since no one objected, I will decide that this battle will be fought.
There were less than 3,000 vanguard troops, including 700 cavalry, and the 700 cavalry with the strongest combat power was the main force that defeated the Otomo family. ”
At this point, Wang Jian''s eyes fell on Yue Yun and Mi Houwang, and said in a deep voice: "Yue Yun and Mi Houwang, you two are the strongest, so these 700 cavalry are led by you, with Yue Yun as the main one, and Mi Houwang as the deputy."
"No." Yue Yun and Mi Houwang said in unison.
"I will order the entire army to speed up the march, and let''s go and turn the Jiuzhou Island upside down."
"No." The generals shouted in unison.
The three thousand infantry and cavalry under Wang Jian''s command began to march at full speed, and jumped out of the encirclement before Maori Yuanchun joined forces, and interluded straight towards the rear of the Chuhou Kingdom like a sharp sword.
"What? Before I came to remember to join the encirclement, the Qin army had already rushed out of the encirclement? Why are you still stunned? Why don''t you chase me quickly?"
Mori Motoku, who received the news, was shocked, but now the defense line was almost broken, and he didn''t have time to do more. He had no time to join forces and ordered the army to pursue at full speed.
When Wang Jian learned that the enemy troops had indeed not had time to gather, he came to pursue them at full speed, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart while suspending the march and waiting for the Japanese army to catch up. While waiting for the Japanese army to catch up, he secretly looked for the target to attack.
The Otomo family''s pursuit army had three routes left, middle and right. The left-road army led by Tsuyoshi Konohara, one of the four Maori samurai, and the right-road army, which was as famous as Fukuhara Sadatsutsu, led by the central army, and the central army was led by Mori Motoharu himself.
Among the three armies, each of them has no less than 7,000 troops, which is more than twice the strength of the Qin army, so the first goal must be carefully selected.
The next day, late at night.
After a sudden march, the Maori Left Route Army was already extremely tired, but just after most of the soldiers fell asleep, Wang Jian led the Qin army to sneak over quietly.
Obviously, Wang Jian was preparing for a night attack this time, and the left-wing army of the Maori family was his target.
After Wang Jian cleaned up the posts laid by the Japanese army, he led the army to the Japanese army camp, but no trace was found. The situation to be done next breaks the camp.
"Yue Yun, Mi Hao Hope, you two lead the cavalry to flatten this camp for me." Wang Jian said in a deep voice.
"No." The two generals responded in unison.
Ka, da, da…
The constant sound of horse hooves also made the Japanese soldiers guarding the camp realize that something was wrong, but when they realized that the Qin cavalry was already close.
"Break it for me."
After Yue Yun roared, he threw out the huge hammer in his hand.
The two-meter-high wooden door was smashed open with a hammer.
"Enemy attacks, enemy attacks..."
The Japanese soldiers shouted in panic, but the Qin army cavalry had rushed over, chopped people when they saw them, and set fires everywhere. The flames gradually illuminated the entire camp.
Just after all the cavalry entered the camp, the infantry behind were immediately followed, but the infantry did not enter the camp, but blocked the camp gate, and occupied all favorable positions, holding a bow to kill the Japanese army in the camp.
After killing several Japanese generals in succession, Yue Yun saw that the situation in the camp was almost in chaos, so he raised his hammer and shouted, "Follow the lieutenant to kill the central army."
When Yue Yun killed the central army, he realized that Mi Houwang had arrived first and headed straight to the chief general of the Japanese army. He immediately became anxious and shouted, "Brother Mi, give me face and give me this chief general of the Japanese army to me. I will also give it to me next time I meet..."
Before he could finish his words, he saw the steel stick raised by Mi Houwang fall down, and the big knife in Kou Yu Tongliang''s hand shattered, and then the stick hit his chest directly.
Puff…
The mouth Yu Tongliang on the horse''s back was blown away directly, and he vomited blood in the air, even vomiting a lot of his internal organs. He swallowed without struggling a few times after landing, and died tragically on the spot.
Mi Houwang turned around at this time, pretended to have not heard it, took out his ears and said, "Ah, Deputy General Yue, what did you say just now? I haven''t heard it clearly."
Yue Yun''s mouth couldn''t help but twitch.
