Chapter 107
Gong Du thought that by gathering the army, he would be able to work together to resist the attack of the Han army, but he didn't know that he had made a big mistake invisibly.
Liu Ye didn't pay much attention to the thousands of yellow turban thieves gathered, but took the lead and led 700 cavalry straight to the East Camp, without even looking at the yellow turban thieves behind him.
Thousands of yellow scarf thieves who had assembled, although they were surrounded by fellow robes, still couldn't help feeling a little fear. After all, the deterrent power of the cavalry is too great. If seven hundred cavalry come rushing, it is estimated that it will be another fierce battle.
But unexpectedly, the seven hundred cavalry left without a fight, and many yellow turban thieves breathed a sigh of relief, and slowly loosened their five fingers that were tightly holding the handle of the knife, and their bodies relaxed.
Gong Du was stunned for a moment, feeling confused: Why did this group of Han troops leave without fighting? Could it be that my old Gong was too frightened to fight when he saw my old Gong gathering troops and rectifying the army formation?
Hey, our old Gong still has two brushes.
"Gong Shuai, the Han army is heading towards the East Camp, shall we pursue it?"
Someone in the tent reminded Gong Du that after all, the East Day Camp is where the food and grass are located. Even people who are proficient in the art of war understand the importance of food and grass, and logistics is related to whether a war can be sustained.
Gong Du frowned, and he couldn't help shaking his head when Liu Pi's advice sounded in his ears.
"Forget it, there are nearly 10,000 troops in the Eastern Camp. Even if the Han army cannot be defeated, it can always be stopped for a while."
"Besides, maybe this is a trick of the Han army to divert the tiger away from the mountain!" Gong Du looked proud, as if he had found an excellent reason for himself.
"The Han army has always been cunning, and there are many cavalry troops. Maybe they deliberately retreated to attract our army to pursue them, and then suddenly attacked. Most of our troops are infantry, how can they resist?"
As soon as Gong Du said this, the soldiers around him suddenly realized that they said yes, and complimented Gong Du with miscellaneous words.
"What Gong Shuai said is true. He really has a clever plan. He is simply Bo Shuai's Zhang Zifang."
"That's right, the Han general thought he had no plans left, but when he met Shuai Gong, it was the Overlord of Chu meeting Emperor Gao."
What this little pawn said is really ridiculous. The protracted struggle between Chu and Han for hegemony, Liu Bang was able to win because of Han Xin in Hebei and Peng Tuo in the south. It made Xiang Yu exhausted, and only then did he win.
At the beginning, Han Xin said that Liu Bang could only lead 100,000 soldiers, but he actually made a pertinent evaluation of Liu Bang's military talent from his own perspective. You must know that Liu Bang and Xiang Yu were on the frontal battlefield in the Aocang area of Xingyang. Liu Bang was beaten by Xiang Yu and retreated steadily. It was only after General Ji Xin pretended to be himself that he escaped.
Gong Du, on the other hand, was elated when he heard the flattery from the soldiers around him.
Don't be kidding, it's fine if Liu Ye doesn't come to attack me actively, but if I go to pursue him actively, isn't that courting death?
At this time, Liu Pi had already rectified the soldiers and horses of the West Day Camp, and personally led 5,000 elite soldiers to help Gongdu. He was afraid that Gongdu's subordinates would not be able to resist Liu Ye, so he rushed to the South camp desperately. He was afraid that if he was one step too late, Gongdu's formation would be defeated by Liu Ye's army. Then cover up and kill, what should I do?
But when he arrived, the scene in front of him took him by surprise.
What about the officers and soldiers?
All the people in front of him were fellow robes, and the one in the middle was Gong Du. Why was this guy the only one here in formation? Could it be that the officers and soldiers went underground, or flew into the sky?
Liu Pile held a knife on his horse: "Bomin, where are the officers and soldiers?"
Gong Du pointed to the east side with his hand: "The officers and soldiers are heading east. I follow your order to gather troops here, and I dare not act rashly. I am afraid that the officers and soldiers will disturb someone's eyes and ears and set up ambush in front, so I dare not move. "
When Liu Pi heard this, his nose was about to explode. You are too fucking obedient to tell you to obey, and watched the officers and soldiers slip away. Even if you don't send troops to pursue, you should always line up and move forward slowly, right? Just set up a formation here and stand still, waiting for others to fight?
Suddenly, his mind froze, and an ominous premonition welled up in his heart.
"The officers and soldiers are heading east, Dong Daying?"
His face, which was originally flushed with anger, suddenly turned pale like frost, and Liu Pi Yaguan slammed into each other, trembling all over.
He raised his head and stared at Gong Du viciously, his eyes were filled with scarlet, as if he wanted to choose someone to eat, so scared that Gong Du almost couldn't sit still and fell off his horse.
Liu Pi gritted his teeth and paused every word.
"Gong Bomin, you idiot, if the officers and soldiers burn the grain and grass, we will all be prisoners!"
When Gong Du heard Liu Pidu, who had always admired him, say this, he couldn't help being afraid, and said in a low voice, "Zhongkai, is it really so serious? There are tens of thousands of warriors in the Eastern Camp, why don't you tell Bo Shuai?"
Liu Pi snorted: "It's too late! Besides, Bo Shuai is besieging the officers and soldiers at the moment, and he doesn't care about it. I'll rush to Dongdaying right away, the sooner the better!"
After finishing speaking, Liu Pi yelled: "The whole army obeys the order! Immediately march to the East Camp, without delay!"
After all, Liu Pi urged the horse to move forward, while the yellow turban thieves under his command ran forward in a hurry. The five thousand yellow turban thieves ran to Nan Daying and rested for a few minutes, and immediately started running. The weaker sergeants fell behind.
If it was normal, Liu Pi would definitely have to strictly control these lagging soldiers, maybe slow down the marching speed and urge them to catch up, but now Liu Pi can't care about that much, and he has nothing else in his eyes, because Without food, there is nothing.
When Gong Du saw Liu Pi urging the army forward, he felt uneasy. He probably knew that he had made a big mistake, so he also issued orders, ordering his soldiers to follow behind Liu Pi. Together with Liu Pi's army, there are more than 8,000 people in total.
However, during the rapid march, there were always people falling behind, panting yellow turban thieves collapsed by the roadside, and some yellow turban thieves who were able to grit their teeth were really tired, so they deliberately pretended to be exhausted and sat down on the side. pant.
Therefore, when the 8,000 soldiers Liu Pi and Gong Du rushed to Dongdaying, more than 2,000 people were left behind, and only 5,000 people arrived in Dongdaying panting.
but.
fire!
The monstrous fire, what caught the eye was a crimson color, the tall flames were burning on the pile of grain and grass, as if each red demon was laughing, the temperature in the air was frighteningly high, and his head was full of hair because of the rapid march. The sweaty Yellow Turban Thieves were unbearably hot.
But Liu Pi's heart was cold.
