The Jagged Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 478

Zhang Fei then withdrew his army back to Dazhai overnight. Huang Quan obviously knew about Zhang Da's ambush and welcomed Zhang Fei in at the gate of Dazhai.

On the way, Zhang Fei could no longer hold back his temper, and asked, "Huang Canjun, is there any clue?"

Huang Quan pressed his hand and said in a low voice: "General, don't worry, you have a clue."

Zhang Fei took the risk with 1000 people this time, and almost lost a lieutenant general. How could he not be in a hurry?He immediately asked: "What's the matter, you should explain clearly!"

Huang Quan smiled slightly, and said: "We have already grasped the movement of Zhu Ran's main force. After Zhu Ran saw that we took the initiative to take that trail, he really couldn't help sending out the main force."

Zhang Fei let out a sigh, and felt relieved immediately—these deaths and injuries today were worth it.

Then, along the way, Huang Quan asked about Zhang Da's injuries and the casualties of the soldiers.

After the two entered Zhang Fei's tent, Huang Quan said first, "Zhu Ran is a general who knows how to use troops. There is no doubt about it. According to the report from the scouts, Zhu Ran's main force has already left their camp. At this time, although it is still impossible to know exactly where they are hiding, according to my judgment, Zhu Ran may think that after a defeat in our army, the morale of our army will decrease and the defense will be relaxed. They may They will take advantage of the fire to attack the camp, smash our camp in Jingmen Mountain in one fell swoop, and drive our army out of Jingmen Mountain."

Zhang Fei nodded, agreed with Huang Quan's thoughts, and sighed: "This Zhu Ran's ambition is really not small. He actually wants to use 5000 people to fight against my [-] army once and for all! Today's blood debt, I will definitely Let him pay in blood!"

Huang Quan nodded, his face immediately became serious, and said: "I think, Zhu Ran's army is probably ambushing near our army camp now, and they are waiting for the time to launch an attack." .”

There was a sneer on Zhang Fei's face, and he said: "The general was worried that Zhu Ran would not dare to attack, and he just hid in his camp. Now he is coming to attack, isn't it what we expected?" Huang Canjun, the time to attack the enemy camp at night is usually in the second half of the night when it is close to dawn, that is when the body is the most tired and the vigilance is the weakest."

Knowing that Zhang Fei's experience in marching and fighting is extremely rich, Huang Quan agreed, "If that's the case, we don't have much time now, so we need to prepare quickly."

Soon, Zhang Fei summoned the herald and a group of army commanders, and began to issue orders to various departments in the army.

Zhang Fei's first order was to turn off all the lights in the camp, leaving only the torches around the camp alive.And let the soldiers guarding the camp around create an appearance of no defense at all, luring Zhu Ranjun to relax his vigilance and come to rob the camp. "

Zhang Fei's second order was given to the archery team.He sent three thousand archers to lie in ambush on the right side of the camp. When the gong sounded in the camp, they immediately fired ten thousand arrows and shot the enemy into a hornet's nest.

Then, Zhang Fei issued a third order.He ordered [-] soldiers to be buried on the left side of the camp, and to rush out immediately after the archers finished shooting.Zhang Fei also emphasized that there is no need to be polite to the enemies in front of you. If they dare to resist forcefully, they will all be killed!
It can be seen how strong Zhang Fei's anger is today.

Then, Zhang Fei ordered again.He sent another 3000 men and horses to find a hidden place in front of the camp to hide.When there was movement in the camp, they immediately rushed out from the shadows, and Zhu Ranjun's retreat at the stage made them all have no return!
Four army Sima took Zhang Fei's order and left first to carry out their missions.Then, Zhang Fei asked the remaining two military commanders to lead the remaining troops to act as a reserve team to deal with possible unexpected situations and protect the wounded and doctors in the army.If a fire suddenly broke out in the barracks, they also needed to send people to put out the fire immediately.

Zhang Fei's arrangement was thoughtful, almost every detail was considered, and it really exceeded Huang Quan's expectations.Huang Quan couldn't help sighing inwardly, General Zhang's decades of military career were indeed not for nothing.

Then, Huang Quan still had something to discuss with Zhang Fei.He immediately stood up from his seat, cupped his hands and said, "General Zhang, there is one more important thing that the general needs to report to you."

Zhang Fei was in a better mood now, and said with a slight smile, "What does Huang Canjun have to say?"

Huang Quan said: "After learning that the main force of Zhu Ran's front battalion had been dispatched this afternoon and the camp had become empty, the general immediately sent an army of 3000 people to the sixth gate of Jingmen Mountain. They were in the local area. Under the leadership of the guide, he concealed his whereabouts and went away secretly, and he should have arrived at the designated location by now."

Zhang Fei was overjoyed and couldn't help but praised: "This plan is very good! In this way, not only Zhu Ran's army will be wiped out, but also the army's camp will not be able to keep. Huang Canjun, it seems that what you said that day is the plan. Today You can succeed in one fell swoop! I am so lucky to have Huang Canjun, Counselor of Military Affairs, by my side!"

Huang Quan smiled slightly, but he didn't even dare to say that he was indeed very modest and cautious.However, Zhang Fei was able to listen to his suggestion of joining the army, which is also his luck as the chief general and assistant officer.The cooperation between these two people can be said to complement each other.

Although Zhang Fei marched for a day, he returned to the camp.But his body has always been strong, so he and Huang Quan didn't sleep a wink all night without feeling the slightest fatigue.

But to Zhang Fei's disappointment, Zhu Ranjun didn't show up after they waited all night.Could it be that Huang Quan was wrong?
At this time, the sky began to brighten, and the first birdsong had already sounded in the surrounding grassland and bushes. The grassland was covered with drops of crystal dew, reflecting the light green color of the wild grass nearby.

After waiting all night, the soldiers were already exhausted, and their spirits began to look a little slack.

Zhang Fei's temper was rather impatient, and he couldn't bear it any longer, so he wanted to order the whole army to withdraw.

At this moment, a member of the scouts rushed over to report to Zhang Fei: "General, Zhu Ran's army is dispatched!"

When all the soldiers heard the words, they all cheered up immediately, and looked up in the direction indicated by the scout.

A smile suddenly appeared on Zhang Fei's face, and he said to Huang Quan: "This Zhu Ran is indeed a cunning person. He was afraid that our army would be prepared for his attack, so he deliberately did not attack the camp at night, but instead caused Tian Gang to attack. Bright hour!"

Huang Quan nodded, and sighed: "This Zhu Ran is indeed an opponent not to be underestimated! Jiangdong is indeed not a place that can be surrendered easily!"

Seeing that Huang Quan was praising Zhu Ran again, Zhang Fei said indifferently, "If Zhu Ran dares to come here in person today, this general will definitely let him come and never come back!"

Zhang Fei immediately sent an order, and the whole army was on alert, ready to fight!
