Chapter 1092 Disembark and Ambush
Zhou Yu's words can play a good role, but whether it can be done is not certain.
Ideally, it would be as Zhou Yu said, but Zhang Yu was overwhelmed by an army of 500,000 troops, a few generals, and two top advisers.
With such a lineup, even if Datang's army directly overwhelmed them, how could they resist.
But blocking Zhang Yu for a year or so, Zhou Yu still has such ambitions this week.
Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai did not attack immediately, but let Zhang Liao march forward with a hundred thousand troops and stationed ten miles away from Chibi.
A few days later, Chibi's army had retreated to 30,000 troops, led by Zhou Yu.
Zhang Liao knew Zhou Yu's actions all the time, but he stayed put.
Hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses are in Zhou Yu this week, and they must be arranged properly before they can act.
Datang's side is progressing smoothly, and Cao Cao and Cai Hao really can't sit still.
They have formed an alliance, and Liu Bei will not interfere with their actions, giving up Xiangyang.
But in practice, it is difficult.
At this time, Zhang Yu had already circled around Dongting Lake a few times.
After a few laps, Sun Ce's soldiers had no idea where Zhang Yu's soldiers would appear or where they might appear.
Zhang Yu landed from different places several times, but disappeared soon, which made the surrounding soldiers and horses very confused.
I don't know how to arrange it at all.
"My lord, we've been wandering around the lake for so long, we're going to faint." A personal guard said.
Zhang Yu said while eating grilled fish: "It's almost done, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce have been defeated, we can go to the road to ambush."
Zhang Yu has received a message from Guo Jia and others.
It was not Sun Ce and Zhou Yu that Zhang Yu wanted to ambush, because the distance was relatively far, and it was not so easy to ambush.
What they want to ambush is to withdraw the enemy troops from around Dongting Lake to Changsha.
Zhang Yu judged,
Sun Ce will definitely abandon these places and withdraw his troops.
They no longer had the capital to disperse their forces. Zhang Yu's hundreds of thousands of troops came over to disperse their forces, and they could only be eaten up bit by bit.
Even, Zhang Yu will force them to return to Changsha quickly, because Zhang Yu can transport troops directly to the city of Changsha by water transport.
One night, Zhang Yu led his troops to land quietly.
Only a few thousand people were left on the boat, and they were allowed to continue wandering along the lakeshore to confuse the enemy.
But Zhang Yu and the others quietly hid in one place.
Zhang Yu and the others lay in ambush on the road leading to Changsha. They marched at night, and they marched directly on the road disguised as Sun Ce's soldiers and horses.
This is not difficult. The two sides have been fighting for so long, and each knows the other's situation.
"Okay, just ambush here, as long as two or three ambushes are enough."
Zhang Yu and the others finally found a suitable place to ambush.
There are dense forests on both sides here, this kind of terrain is very suitable for ambushes, and of course the enemy will be very careful.
However, Zhang Yu judged that Sun Ce's soldiers and horses would not be too vigilant.
Because they thought Zhang Yu and the others were in the lake.
Zhang Yu found a good place and asked people to ambush him.
Said it was an ambush, but it was more like resting.
There are many troops hidden on both sides of the forest, because if 50,000 troops are here, it will definitely arouse suspicion.
But if there are only more than 10,000 people and they are still wearing Soochow armor and resting on the side of the road, then everything is normal, nothing more normal.
Zhang Yu and the others hid the army in the woods, and then more than 10,000 people lined up on both sides of the road.
Such an ambush has many advantages, as long as it is not suspected, the other party will not be vigilant.
This is a good place to ambush. If there are some experienced generals, they will definitely send people to investigate in the forest.
However, Zhang Yu and the others arranged this way, who would investigate?
The most important thing is not to let people see the flaws, Zhang Yu let them be lazy.
My own army has strict military discipline, and no one dares to look lazy, so it must look like the Soochow army.
Be looser, a few people get together and sit on the ground chatting, and some simply lie on the ground.
Of course, Soochow's army is not very bad, and all the necessary vigilance must be in place.
Zhang Yu and the others waited here for a day, but no large army passed by, but a lot of people came here and then detoured.
Zhang Yu is not in a hurry, there will always be someone who has been taken advantage of.
After another half day, sure enough, a soldier and horse appeared on the avenue.
The soldiers and horses had obviously traveled a lot, and many of them were out of breath.
They received an order to return to Changsha to garrison.
Around Dongting Lake, there is no defense at all. Without a fleet to contend with, Zhang Yu and the others may attack from unexpected places at any time.
Moreover, Dongting Lake is too big for them to rescue them in time.
Therefore, Sun Ce and the others began to withdraw their troops, preparing to defend Changsha to the death.
Zhang Yu and their guests have arrived.
He immediately hid in the woods and handed over the situation outside to a few young generals.
These teenagers also have acting skills.
When the enemy arrived, they didn't move at all, and they were still resting on both sides of the road.
The Soochow army who came here already knew this through investigation.
The 20,000 people approached normally without any precautions.
The first general, surnamed Chen, was thirty-five years old.
After he arrived here, his eyes glanced, quite majestic.
"Hmph, you look lazy, I'll take a copy when I go back." The general surnamed Chen was obviously unconvinced, and was a little angry seeing such an army.
Anger is anger, but what can he do, these people are out of his control.
"let's go."
The general ordered the troops to line up and walked over neatly, but his eyes were not squinted, and he looked extremely majestic.
Obviously, this general surnamed Chen was protesting against them.
The army passed slowly.
Zhang Yu squinted his eyes in the woods, the result was very ideal.
Zhang Yu repeatedly issued orders with gestures.
When this army passes slowly, rest in the rear, the lazy army, slowly stand up.
They stood up, still in small groups, but slowly gathering.
This did not arouse much suspicion.
The troops on both sides also stood up, and they lined up on the side of the road to "salute" each other.
When all their troops entered, the army surrounded them.
Suddenly, the general surnamed Chen was blocked.
"Bold, which army are you in? What position?"
The road ahead was blocked, and the army surnamed Chen was very upset.
"I'm just an ordinary school lieutenant, not even a general." Said a young general who was a bit too much.
The face of this surnamed Chen suddenly darkened, a school lieutenant dared to block his way.
"Get out of the way, go back and settle accounts with your general, and you must report this matter in front of His Majesty." The general surnamed Chen said angrily.
The young general glanced around and found that his troops had already started to move, so he said: "My Majesty Tang is here, you can go and read my book."
