Chapter 1364

Huang Fuli was puzzled that Zhao Yun led nearly 20000 troops to ambush Lv Bu at a dangerous pass. In fact, not only Huang Fuli, but also Hao Zhao, the most resourceful one in the presence, looked at Zhao Yun blankly. However, Zhao Yun didn't want to explain this.

"Are you all surprised that even if Lv Bu led 10000 Bingzhou wolves, he would have gone to ambush and occupy the right time and place. Why should he bring 20000 troops?"

"Please also ask the general to solve our doubts!" Huangfuli asked respectfully;

"Because he is Lv Bu, no matter how much we attach importance to him, we can't go too far." With that, Zhao Yun ordered the army to pull out.

After hearing this, several people still looked at a loss, but it was not good to continue to ask.

However, Zhao Yun finally stopped Dianwei and repeatedly stressed that the army needs to cooperate to attack the South pass first, and then the king's army will enter Taiyuan, and then the king will decide the direction of the army. Although Dianwei didn't understand this very well, he still took the order.

For Zhao Yun's last order, only Hao Zhao nodded thoughtfully. The rest didn't understand his meaning, but everyone didn't ask too much.

As soon as he left Zhao Yun's conference hall, Huang Fuli grabbed Hao Zhao: "Bodao, what's the purpose of General Zhao's last order?"

Hao Zhaolai didn't want to do much, but he couldn't stand the inquiries of several people. Helpless, he just whispered to several people: "as the saying goes: a high merit is better than a rescue, but for a military general, there is another merit that everyone wants most. Do you know what the great merit is?"

When they heard the speech, they were all thinking hard.

For a long time, Zhang Xiong suddenly said, "I know, I know, Bo Dao, but the power to destroy the country?"

Hao Zhao nodded: "yes, the power to destroy the country is the great power that all generals want, but General Zhao is modest and doesn't want to take this great power, so he ordered general Dian and us to take the king into Taiyuan, and then the king personally decided to stop the army, in the hope that the power to destroy the country will be handed over to the king."

When they heard the speech, they all woke up and nodded silently.

Hao Zhao said here. Suddenly, he had a flash in his mind. He seemed to think of why Zhao Yun took 20000 troops to ambush Lv Bu army, but he was not sure. Moreover, the long spearmen of Zhang Xiong's 3000 troops and horses selected by Zhao Yun account for 80%, which proves what Hao Zhao thinks. Hao Zhao would not reveal it to others, even if it was his own.

Zhao Yun led 20000 troops all the way. It took only one day to reach Shiling pass. At this time, Shiling pass has nothing to do with pass, but the location is really very dangerous.

An official road runs straight through the valley. On both sides are cliffs about several feet high. The official road is about miles long, the widest is about miles, and only two carriages can run in parallel in the narrow place. If a pass is built in it, one man will be in charge of the pass, and ten thousand people can't open it.

As soon as the army arrived outside the valley where shilingguan was located, Zhao Yun immediately ordered, "Zhang Xiong listens to the order!"

"Will not be in!" Zhang Xiong heard the speech and immediately went out to fight the front road;

"Lead 3000 soldiers and 2000 white horses from the headquarters to the cliff at the north entrance of the valley, prepare a large number of boulders and huge trees, and block the road after Lv Bu's army enters the valley. Then your soldiers and horses must ensure that Lv Bu's army does not break through the North Valley entrance, and no matter how Lv Bu can escape."

"Please rest assured that if Lv Bu escapes, he will be dealt with by the general's military law." Zhang Xiong said firmly;

"OK, order your troops as soon as possible!" Zhao Yun nodded and waved;

Soon, Zhang Xiong ordered five thousand soldiers and horses to leave the army and go to the other side of the valley. At Zhao Yun's request, he only brought three thousand soldiers of his own infantry, including one thousand sword shield soldiers, one thousand long spearmen and one thousand archers, plus two thousand white horses.

Zhao Yun's side left 2000 long gunmen and 13000 white horse Yicong. Two thousand long gunmen were arranged by Zhao Yun at the south entrance of the valley to set up a long gun array to resist horses. White Ma Yi left only ten thousand to ride beside him. The other three thousand were arranged by him to go to the cliffs on both sides of the valley and used as archers.

According to the news from the shadow of Jinyang, Lv Bu led more than 10000 Bingzhou wolves to the north of Yanmen pass. If the Tang army invades the hinterland of Taiyuan, but there are only about 2000 cavalry, according to Hao Zhaohe and Zhao Yun's own speculation, Lv Bu is likely to only bring back the Bingzhou Wolves under his command, so, Zhao Yun has to face only more than 10000 cavalry.

Of course, even if the cavalry soldiers of Cao Wanbu are not willing to ride, they should be able to get rid of all the cavalry soldiers of Cao Wanbu.

It took the army only half a day to arrange the ambush trap. The next thing to do is to wait quietly for the prey to come to the door.

Lv Bu didn't ask Zhao Yunduo to wait. He led two thousand Bingzhou wolves to ride, three for one, and set out from Yanmenguan early in the morning. Therefore, after a few hours of traveling, he finally arrived at the north entrance of shilingguan Valley at the end of the afternoon.

However, to Zhao Yun's surprise, Zhang Xiong sent a message that there were only 2000 cavalry led by Lv Bu, not more than 10000 or even 20000 cavalry as he had expected. Zhao Yun was excited by this news. If the cavalry led by Lv Bu really exceeded 15000, even under such good conditions, it would be a great loss to wipe them out.

After a little consideration, Zhao Yun immediately ordered Zhang Xiong to put all the 2000 cavalry of Lv Bu into the valley and then block the north exit.

Two quarters of an hour later, the rumbling sound of horse hoofs sounded on the field in the north of the valley. Zhang Xiong led people to ambush on the cliff at the north entrance of the valley. All the people fell quietly in the grass on the cliff. Although Lv Bu must have seen the situation on the cliff, no one made a sound easily.

Zhang Xiong raised his head and looked north through the grass. Soon, a team of cavalry appeared in his vision. The leader was a general dressed in red robes and riding red horses. It's true that Lv Bu was the first person. Zhang Xiong had never seen Lv Bu, but everyone knows the red rabbit and horse under Lv Bu. Behind Lv Bu, closely followed by two thousand Bingzhou wolves, three for one, and six thousand war horses, like a tide, rushed to the south.

Here comes Lv Bu
