Chapter 371: Telling the Truth (5)
Fang Jie led a dozen of his own soldiers and rushed into the bamboo forest. Ye Jinnan followed closely with his own soldiers and pursued them. The fighting on the Gaopo side was still in full swing, and these soldiers were like wild horses that had taken off their reins, completely forgetting that they were professional soldiers. When the fight got to this point, it seemed like they were venting something.
The green bamboo forest is very big, and I don¡¯t know where the big flag is.
But Fang Jie¡¯s target was not on that big flag, and now Ye Jinnan¡¯s soldiers have been left behind. The number of soldiers around the two men is almost the same. It is Fang Jie's purpose to pull a general who has experienced hundreds of battles from his army, from a duel between the two armies to a small-scale fight.
¡°Moreover, he still has one hundred and fifty people who are useless.
These one hundred and fifty people were lying in ambush in the woods. Fang Jie's plan was to lure Ye Jinnan away from his men, and then surround him with the ambush that had been laid in advance, and then use one hundred and fifty elite soldiers to surround him. Coupled with the dozen or so people around him, as long as Ye Jinnan is trapped, Fang Jie will have won no matter where the flag is.
After rushing into the green bamboo forest for two or three miles, Fang Jie stopped his horse and waited for Ye Jinnan to catch up.
Ye Jinnan seemed to understand something when he saw Fang Jie slow down, but his expression became more and more relaxed.
"General Fang is very calculating."
After he stopped his horse, the other party released his fists: "I have to say, at first, I thought that any move you made was within my sight, and I could see it clearly. But after chasing me here, I realized that I It feels bad to be led by you all the time, very bad"
Fang Jie smiled and shook his head: "This is not a military strategy, just some insidious tricks. General Ye is using his troops in an upright and upright manner, and naturally he will not think about these crooked things."
"In the art of war, there is only good and strange, and there is no difference between insidious and bright. The means that can win are good means, and the methods that can succeed are good methods."
Ye Jinnan said: "I guess you have laid an ambush here, right?"
Fang Jie nodded: "Not bad"
"Yesterday, I sent someone to check the terrain again, and I have been keeping an eye on Shanzi Camp's actions. I haven't seen your people come to Qingzhu Forest"
"My people were placed here two days ago."
Fang Jie said: "Two days ago, when I was leading the troops for training, I divided my troops and sneaked into the green bamboo forest. They have been lying in wait in this forest for two days and two nights."
Ye Jinnan was startled: "Is this how you have trained those 150 people in the past month?"
"yes"
Fang Jie nodded: "In the past twenty days, the one hundred and fifty people have only had one training, which is to hide them in one place to ensure that they are not discovered for at least two days and nights. They are all well-trained soldiers. I can't make them improve their fighting skills in a month."
"admire"
Ye Jinnan praised sincerely: "I really didn't expect that you would only let those one hundred and fifty people do this this month. It is easy to say that it is easy to lie in wait for two days and nights without being discovered, but it is actually very difficult. You know that with me Because of his nature, he must have sent people to explore the terrain of the Green Bamboo Forest many times in advance, and he would note down any details that could lead to an ambush. Before the competition, I sent people to explore the Green Bamboo Forest again, just because I was worried that you had set up an ambush, but my scouts did not find it. , This shows that your training this month has been very good.¡±
Fang Jie said calmly: "It's just to let them adapt. From the first day, I asked them to learn to disguise and then lie in one place motionless for a day. After a month of continuous training, they have barely passed the test. ¡±
Ye Jinnan was silent for a while and concluded: "You sent the cavalry to speed up and leave the team. I thought you were trying to lure me to divide my troops. Later, you sent the cavalry to fall behind my troops. I thought you were trying to hold me back. Now think about it. , I was wrong These two changes of yours wanted me to believe that your goal was Gao Slope, and that you planned to make a desperate move to fight me on Gao Slope, so I focused all my attention on Gao Slope. On the slope"
"Then you deliberately let the soldiers of the Shanzi Battalion use very rude actions to anger my soldiers and make them lose their minds. The soldiers from both sides were fighting together, and it would be difficult for me to bring my men out. And you understand My temper is too upright, and I can't stand a group of soldiers hugging each other like rogues, so I must send people out to stop and restrain them. Therefore, these are the only people left around me."
"Then you led people into the green bamboo forest. The reason why you firmly thought that I would chase after you was because you knew that I was conceited and guessed??I put myself in a winning position from the beginning. "
"so¡¡"
Ye Jinnan sighed: "It all sounds very simple, but you have been trying to figure out my thoughts. You have considered me as me from the beginning, so everything is within your plan. As a general, Naturally, we must grasp the right time and location, but what you grasp is the enemy's thoughts. I am not as good as you in this regard."
Fang Jie shook his head: "The general is a gentleman, I am not. I have been using tricks from the beginning, and the general responded with an upright fighting method. There was no emphasis on fairness, so the general did not lose."
Ye Jinnan laughed loudly: "I didn't lose in the first place."
He raised his chin slightly and said: "You made a very thorough calculation, but you only missed one point. On the battlefield, sometimes the bravery of a general can influence the situation of the battle. When I was watching the battle in Gaopo, I roughly saw that the troops you deployed were there. More than a hundred people. It is precisely because of this that I chased after them but they couldn't stop me."
Fang Jie frowned slightly and sighed in his heart.
The only thing he didn't understand was Ye Jinnan's martial arts.
When he beat up Lu Ou in Chang'an City, Ye Jinnan threw a knife outside the door. This was the only move Fang Jie had ever seen from Ye Jinnan. Fang Jie could not judge Ye Jinnan's cultivation level based on this throw.
He was silent.
¡°Gotta try it¡±
He said.
Then he waved, and the ambush troops everywhere immediately appeared. These soldiers were wearing emerald green clothes with weeds tied around their bodies. They lay motionless in the grass and could not be seen at all.
"Then try it"
Ye Jinnan smiled lightly and took off his weapon from the victory hook. He usually used a long stick, but today it was a wooden stick.
¡¡
¡¡
Fang Jie found that his thinking was indeed a bit simplistic. One hundred and fifty Shanzi camp elites could not stop Ye Jinnan at all If Ye Jinnan was alone, Fang Jie might not be able to make it difficult if everyone on Fang Jie's side came together. live. But each of the dozen or so soldiers around Ye Jinnan were the best among the best.
Ye Jinnan dismounted, and his soldiers immediately formed an array to protect his left, right and behind. More than a dozen people formed a small arrow array, but it was extremely sharp. One hundred and fifty Shanzi camp elites rushed forward, but they were unable to form an encirclement. This arrow array was too strong and too sharp, and the cooperation between Ye Jinnan and the soldiers was flawless. Although the number is small, the combat power is too strong.
The attacks that came in the past were all blocked by Ye Jinnan's soldiers. Ye Jinnan didn't have to worry about his wings or the dangers behind him, he just needed to rush forward. And if he wanted to stop him Fang Jie was sure that even if he brought someone up there, he might not be able to do so.
This is a competition, not a fight.
¡°If this is really on the battlefield, if you give it a go and fight to the death, Fang Jie still has some confidence, but how can you fight desperately in this situation?
Just when Ye Jinnan was about to rush over with the sharp arrow array, dozens of horsemen and horses roared towards him from a distance, and they arrived a moment later. The leader is General Luo Yao, and behind him are the top ten figures of Luomen, Zhan Yao and Wen Xiaodao.
Zhan Yao followed Luo Yao closely behind Luo Yao, holding a battle flag embroidered with the seven characters of "Left Guard General Luo" with one hand. The flagpole was very thick and could not be grasped with one hand. The flag is very high, at least about one foot and five feet. Coupled with the huge flag, its weight can be imagined when it is shaking in the wind.
But Zhan Yao held the big flag with one hand and stood upright.
His body undulated as the horse ran, as if he was cast on the horse's back and remained motionless. And the big flag seemed to be cast in his hands.
"Stop it"
Luo Yao reined in his horse and gave an order.
Ye Jinnan immediately put away the long stick in his hand, turned around and stood in awe, and gave a standard military salute to Luo Yao. The soldiers behind him also had solemn expressions. Behind them, at least more than sixty elites from the Shanzi Battalion had fallen to the ground, knocked down by Ye Jinnan's long stick, and unable to stand up for the time being.
¡°There¡¯s no need to keep fighting.¡±
Luo Yao looked at Ye Jinnan with a calm face and said with a slightly chilling tone: "Jinnan, what do you want to say?"
Ye Jinnan stood solemnly and lowered his head: "This subordinate is defeated."
Luo Yao nodded and asked: "Where was the defeat?"
Ye Jinnan replied: "If you don't win, you are defeated."
Luo Yao seemed to be satisfied with Ye Jinnan's answer. He turned his head and looked at Fang Jie with a smile on his lips: "Master Xiao Fang, do you think you want to continue the competition?"
"No need"
Fang Jie shook his head: "Actually, I knew I was going to lose today from the moment I followed General Ye into the Green Bamboo Forest. But I didn't feel ashamed to be defeated by General Ye."
"You both said you were defeated."
Luo Yao shook his head slightly and said, "Then how should I judge?"
"General Ye wins!"
"General Fang wins!"
Fang Jie and Ye Jinnan said in unison.
Luo Yao laughed loudly: "Without losing the atmosphere, sogood! Lord Xiaofang is leading troops for the first time. It is not easy to fight against Jinnan and achieve this situation. He will become a great weapon in the future. Jinnan, you have to Remember these seemingly inconspicuous methods of Master Xiaofang are of great use on the battlefield. One is good and the other is strange. If you two have the opportunity to lead the army together in the future, you may be able to win every battle!"
¡°Subordinates, please remember this!¡±
Ye Jinnan clasped his fists and lowered his head.
"Um"
Luo Yao nodded, and then the other party explained: "Juexiao you come with me, I have something to say to you."
Fang Jie was slightly startled, not because Luo Yao planned to talk to him alone. It's because Luo Yao didn't call Lord Xiaofang this time, but called his cousin Juexiao.
"yes"
Fang Jie bowed his head.
Luo Yao jumped off his horse and walked deep into the green bamboo forest with his hands behind his back. Fang Jie followed behind, constantly thinking about what Luo Yao would say today.
"Have you thought about it?"
After the two of them were far away from everyone, Luo Yao asked softly as he walked.
"A few days ago, I asked you whether you planned to stay in the left wing. Although I have written to the court to keep you, His Majesty will not stop you. But I still want to hear your own thoughts. If you insist on leaving, I will I won¡¯t force you to stay.¡±
"The general said"
Fang Jie paused for a moment and asked, "There is a reason why I think I should stay. Can you tell me now?"
"The reason that is a long-ago story, think about it it has been decades since I started talking about it from the beginning. I know that you came to Yongzhou not just because of His Majesty's entrustment, but also for your own purpose. And what I want to tell you has a lot to do with your purpose If you are ready, then I will tell you this story."
He stopped and turned to look at Fang Jiewen.
Fang Jie hesitated for a while, then took a deep breath.
"Will I die immediately after hearing this?"
Luo Yao was startled, then smiled and shook his head.
"Then tell me."
Fang Jie sat down cross-legged on the grass with a calm expression.
