    Before a battle begins, people often hold their breath and think about defeating the enemy with one powerful blow.  However, if victory comes too easily, it is easy to scare yourself.

    At the moment, this is it. The brave Taishi Ci hesitated in front of the deep valley, and the generals watching the battle in the middle army also frowned.  Cao Cao sent people to intercept them as if there was something serious, but the result was such a bunch of useless snacks. It was weird no matter what he thought.

    "Luring the enemy deep? Set up an ambush on the top of the mountain?" Qin Feng looked at the cliffs on both sides of the valley and tentatively offered his opinion.  There are also big mountains in Youzhou, but valleys like this are rare.  Even if there is, it is not necessary to go, and most of them can be detoured, so he has no clue about the current situation.

    "That's useless. There are not enough stones on the cliff, and the arrows shot from above lose their strength." On this topic, the native Fang Yue had the most say. He shook his head and rejected Qin Feng's suggestion.

    The valley in front of us is very long, and the cliffs on both sides of the valley are as steep as knives. Unless the entire stone wall can be knocked down, there is no use occupying the tops of both sides of the wall.  The top of the mountain was bare, with no stones to be found, and the mountain wind was fierce. The arrows shot down from the cliffs thousands of feet high were blown to an unknown place by the mountain wind before they even hit halfway.

    Usually, setting up an ambush in a valley and using the terrain to attack the enemy refers to hills that are less than a hundred feet high and the slope of the hillside is not too steep.  In a place like Baixing Seventy-Two Guais, whether offensive or defensive, you can only make a fuss at the bottom of the valley.

    "Anyway, let's test first and then talk." Wang Yu had no intention of commenting on the generals' comments and still maintained the original arrangement: "Tell Ziyi, don't rush too fast, still focus on testing, move slowly and steadily, if there is any disadvantage  , then withdraw the troops immediately.¡±

    It's true that the opponent is Cao Cao's army. Except for Cao Cao's side, no one will look bored and come in front of him to find trouble. Moreover, this army is also under the banner of Cao Cao.  What's a little puzzling is that this enemy soldier only carried the banner of Cao Cao's general, and did not have the banner of the leading general.

    Combined with the useless performance of this enemy soldier, Wang Yu could not help but ponder the mystery behind it.

    With limited intelligence, maintaining the original order and continuing to test, at least to find out the enemy's true intentions, became the only option.

    Because, Wang Yu¡¯s goal is right in front, and he must use offense to defeat the enemy!

    Obviously, the enemy had reasons not to retreat, and a second wave of defense was quickly organized.

    Hundreds of men and horses surged out from the depths of the valley with shouts. During the march, they used skillful formations to gather and disperse their own troops, and then formed a dense formation on the spot, with large oars in the front and spears in the back, fearlessly  The situation faced the pursuing Qingzhou Army.

    This time, the enemy's performance was slightly better.  However, it does not seem like their fighting spirit and combat power have increased. It is more like that due to the terrain restrictions of the valley, the actual contact area between the two armies is smaller, so the battle lasts longer.

    After the two sides fought for about a stick of incense, Cao Jun broke away from the Qingzhou Army one after another and collapsed.

    After repeating this process several times, Cao Jun, who was blocking the road, retreated all the way to the depths of the valley and disappeared at the first turning.

    The sudden appearance was followed by a quick retreat, which only took less than half an hour.  Among them, the proportion of fighting time is very small, and most of the time is spent on the road.

    If it weren¡¯t for the hundreds of twisted corpses with different death patterns left along the way, everyone in Qingzhou would probably not be able to believe that the enemy was so defeated that they were unable to fight back.

    But things are obviously not that simple. You can see some carefulness from Wang Yu's solemn expression.

    "Obviously, this resourceful and far-sighted lord was not fooled by the small victory in front of him, but saw the deeper meaning that ordinary people could not see.

    "This is not about luring the enemy. To be precise, it is not as simple as luring the enemy!" Wang Yu suddenly said something out of nowhere.

    "My lord means"

    "Perhaps, this enemy army has already used all its strength to fight!" Wang Yu ignored the doubtful looks of the generals and was completely immersed in the analysis of the battle situation.

    "Is this a tactic? Well, it does make some sense. If the enemy can keep fighting and retreating like this, we may have to walk for more than five days on this hundred-mile journey." Zhao Yun nodded and shook his head again.  Shaking his head: "However, if this battle continues like this, can they really afford it?"

    "Don't you think it's strange? These people are not very good at fighting, but they are very courageous and slimy. Those who ran away at the beginning reorganized themselves at the last wave of defense!" Ma Yunluo has a sharp eye.  Yes, his observation skills were meticulous enough, and he also pointed out a doubtful point.

    "Huh?  Ziyi and the others seem to have been blocked again" Qin Feng looked in the direction Ma Yunluan pointed, and exclaimed, making a new discovery: "This time the enemy's resistance seems to be very fierce Ziyi and the others actually retreated.  Got it!  Could it be that the enemy has ambushed a heavy army behind him?  This is terrible!  Wuji, aren¡¯t you a local?  So what does the valley behind the bend look like?  "

    Finding that Tai Shici was beaten back, Qin Feng suddenly thought of a possibility.  If the valley behind is wider, the enemy can ambush more troops there and attack the pursuing Qingzhou Army.

    Fang Yue spread his hands and looked helpless: "How did I know this?"

    "You are a local and a disciple of a general. How come you can't even figure out the terrain?" Qin Feng was also anxious.

    "I'm talking about crazy people, you need to find out first! Do you know where this place is? Do you think the name of the Seventy-two Guais ??is for nothing? It is said to be Seventy-two Guais, but in fact the valley road here twists and turns.  How many twists and turns have we made? Not to mention that I only walked through it a few times occasionally. Even if you are a traveler who travels all year round, how many of you can remember all the terrain?"

    Fang Yue's face turned red from being squeezed by him, and she shouted loudly: "Besides, if those thieves on the other side really have such an idea, even if they are careful enough in the valley, what should they do when they leave the valley?"

    Being reminded by Fang Yue, Qin Feng was dumbfounded: "That's true"

    "Perhaps, the enemy's plan is to use these miscellaneous troops to consume their own physical strength, and then ambush thousands of elites at the mouth of the valley on the other side.  To put it bluntly, it is a strategy of waiting for work and tiring the enemy!

    If this is really the case, this move can be said to be almost unsolvable.

    This enemy force is very resilient. It seems to be used to being beaten to pieces. It also seems to be used to walking on mountain roads. It moves very quickly and regroups very quickly.

    Although the Qingzhou Army's combat effectiveness is far superior to that of its opponent, in such rugged terrain, it is unable to exert its full combat effectiveness. At most, it can only take turns to attack.  It is not impossible to win quickly.

    "Even if there is no ambush at the other end of the valley, as long as we delay it for three to five days, reinforcements will probably arrive. By then, we will have already penetrated deep into the valley, and we may be in a dilemma!"

    Zhuge Liang, who was camping at the back, also realized that something was wrong. He came forward with a few staff, listened quietly for a while, and said worriedly: "Cao Cao's move hit the vital point of our army. And what he paid was only Yu.  It¡¯s just a few thousand thieves who are poisonous or stubborn.¡±

    After he said this, the generals immediately figured out the identity of this strange enemy force.

    ¡°Isn¡¯t it? They are familiar with the terrain, move quickly, and are tenacious, but their performance in array battles is extremely poor. Only these Black Mountain bandits who are accustomed to fighting guerrillas have these contradictory characteristics at the same time.

    "Pass my general's order and withdraw the troops with gold!" Wang Yu suddenly shouted, as if giving a footnote to Zhuge Liang's judgment: "Let Ziyi withdraw. There is no need to continue this meaningless battle."

    ¡°Dang, Dang, Dang¡± The harsh sound of golden gongs resounded throughout the valley, and the battle came to an end.

    "The fighting power of these bastards is very poor, but they have too many crooked ways" Taishi Ci took off his helmet and walked towards the formation with a curse, looking like he was still full of ideas.

    When I heard that the vanguard troops had once again removed the obstacles, they were about to continue the pursuit.  This battle seemed to be overwhelming, with hundreds of enemies killed, but Taishi Ci, who was in the middle of the game, was very depressed.

    In fact, we only killed a large number of enemies twice when we conquered the Taniguchi camp and entered the valley. Afterwards, the enemies became more and more cunning.  Reluctant to fight head-on, he just jumped around like a group of monkeys in front of him. Once he caught up, he would either find a pit in the seemingly flat place, or he would trip over a stone placed in the middle of the road.

    The hole is not deep, just missing the ankle, but it is quite a trap.  A soldier wearing full iron armor accidentally steps on it, and may lose his balance and fall, or may directly sprain his ankle and lose his combat effectiveness.

    During the battle with the enemy, the heavy armored soldiers only had two lightly wounded soldiers, but in the end, more than ten were trapped by these traps.  The sprained ankle is not life-threatening, but in the next few days, you will definitely not be able to stand up on your own power.

    "That's not all. These despicable people also set up other ambush around the corner! This group of monkeys can actually climb up such a bare mountain wall with nothing. There are dozens of them, with fist-sized hands.  The rocks were thrown down Not to mention the sons and daughters, I was not careful and was all hit. I was really pissed off!"

    Even if Tai Shi Ci didn't say anything, Wang Yu could see the dents on his helmet. He thought he was charging too hard and deliberately not hiding in order to kill more enemies, but the result turned out to be such a ridiculous result.

    After a few words of comfort to Tai Shici, Wang Yu gave up and continued the attack.He planned to leave a small number of soldiers and horses on guard, while the whole group joined the camp.

    He himself was not idle either. He found a few local soldiers from the army whose hometowns were nearby, and then sent people to look for mountain people nearby, intending to learn more about the terrain of the Seventy-two Turns.

    Wang Yu initially raised his army in Hanoi, and there were many Hanoi people in the army. Among the cavalry army alone, he found several whose families were in Gongxian area.  With the confirmation of these people and the stories of the mountain people, he had a relatively comprehensive understanding of Baixing's terrain.

    So, when the camp was set up and it was getting dark, when Wang Yu summoned the generals for a military meeting, his first words were like this: "I'm afraid things are a little tricky" (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature  , the novel is better and updated faster!)
