Chapter 241: Please don't stir up the general
Zhang Wu, Cheng Germany's second offensive retreated like a tide. Shi Kuan, who was standing at the head of the city, wiped the mixture of sweat and blood on his face, and said to Shi Yi happily: "Father, the Chengde people are not good, today's attack, compared with the previous two days, is not at the same level at all, it seems that we beat them hard, and they have no stamina. Coupled with the cold weather, they can't hold it anymore. I see that most of their soldiers are still wearing autumn clothes. As long as we hold on for a few more days, the cold spell is coming. If they don't withdraw their troops, it's our turn to counterattack."
Listening to Shi Kuan's words, the generals gathered around Shi Yi all nodded frequently, and their faces were filled with irrepressible joy. Besieged by tens of thousands of troops, they were originally extremely desperate, but after several battles in a row, they actually found that the offensive of the Chengde people was weaker and weaker every time, and to this day, it is even more soft.
And the weather, even more on their side, the cold wave is really coming, they are in the city, there are always city walls, houses to protect from the wind and rain, and outside the city, but they will have to endure the cold wind.
They have seen the dawn of victory.
But unlike these people's joyful appearance, Shi Yi was full of worry, his eyes crossed the retreating Chengde army, and looked at the distant city of Yingzhou.
As a veteran who has been on the battlefield for decades, he can easily tell that the German army is not weak in attack, but it is not attacking with all its strength at all.
Except for the first two battles, Chengde fought with all his might, and in the remaining battles, the other party was responding to the story, and it didn't seem that he wanted to fight Zhang Wu, but he was playing a game with him Shi Yi.
It's just that in this game, each time both sides have to give some human lives as an account.
Not only is this not a good thing, but on the contrary, this fact shows that another thing is fearing is getting closer and closer to him.
Li Ze left Zhangwu with two thousand cavalry and rushed to Yingzhou City, two thousand cavalry, naturally they couldn't beat Yingzhou City, but in this world, anything unexpected can happen. If Cheng Debing here did not care about life and death and attacked him desperately, he would have to be more calm in his heart, but now, the performance of the other party made him feel worried.
Because this shows that Li Ze must have made decisive progress in the direction of Yingzhou City. Therefore, the Cheng Debing here will not care if he can quickly take Zhang Wu. If the other party really takes Yingzhou City, then this Zhang Wu must be his Shi Yi's burial place.
He can't sit still here.
"Order, kill pigs and sheep, and reward the whole army." Still looking into the distance, Shi Yi ordered.
"Yes!" Shi Kuan nodded repeatedly.
"Count the Zhangwu Mansion Treasury to see how many silver taels there are, count the logistics of our army, how much money is still there, and reward them all to the soldiers, after everyone has a full meal, rest, sleep, and at the fourth watch, the whole army will break through!" Shi Yi continued.
"Yes!" Shi Kuan habitually agreed, and suddenly reacted, his face full of surprise, "Father, what is the reason?" Tens of thousands of troops outside are besieged, our troops are at an absolute disadvantage, there is no city wall to rely on, and we go out of the city to fight. This, this, this, this ......"
Shi Yi took a deep breath, "I'm worried about the direction of Yingzhou City."
"My lord, even if Yingzhou City is not impregnable, it is definitely not something that two thousand cavalry can take, right?" Shi Kuan couldn't help but retort.
"If it weren't for the big problem in Yingzhou City, the Chengde Army would never be like this." Shi Yi pointed to the Chengde military camp in the distance: "We know that the cold wave is coming, and we have all seen that most of the Chengde army has not yet put on cotton clothes, so will the generals of the Chengde army not know?" Now that they know, why don't they seize the time to attack desperately and take us down as soon as possible? If the sergeant does not have the heart to fight to the death, then withdrawal is an inevitable choice. Now, they are fighting but not fighting seriously, and they are withdrawing and refusing to withdraw, what does this mean, it shows that they are in their chests, and what can make them in their chests? Naturally, something may happen in Yingzhou City."
Listening to Shi Yi's explanation, the faces of all the generals around him changed drastically.
"Can't it be that there is a problem with their generals?" Shi Kuan argued unconvinced.
"Generals have a problem? Cao Xin eats more salt than you eat, not to mention the likes of Du Teng and Liu Chenglin, they will make such a low-level mistake, unless the sun comes out of the west. Go down and prepare, and break through at the fourth watch today. Kill it, or have a chance to live." Shi Yi said categorically.
A few miles outside the city, in the camp of the German army, a group of senior generals were also gathered by Cao Xin.
"Cao Gong, Ximen is too fake today." As soon as Liu Chenglin saw Cao Xin, he couldn't help but complain, and at the same time glanced at Du Teng on the side with dissatisfaction, "People like Shi Yi are afraid that they can see the clues at a glance. Isn't that self-defeating? ”
Du Teng took a step forward dissatisfied, and just as he wanted to speak, Cao Xin had already waved his hand: "General Liu, this matter must be no wonder Du Beijia, he fought so fakely because of the order I gave him."
"Huh?" Liu Chenglin froze suddenly, to say that he didn't trust Du Teng's ability, but Cao Xin couldn't help but be convinced." Why is that? ”
"Because Gongzi has already sent someone to deliver the letter, the matter of Yingzhou has been decided." Cao Xin laughed.
"Defeated Yingzhou?" Liu Chenglin was overjoyed, but immediately asked puzzledly: "Two thousand cavalry, how did you take a prefecture city?" ”
"Childe has his own ideas!" Cao Xin sold a pass, "Although it is said that it has not really been beaten down, there is basically no problem, so as soon as I received this news, I gave Du Beijia this order, just to let Shi Yi see it!" ”
Liu Chenglin's eyes lit up: "Is Gong Cao going to lure Shi Yi out?" And then beat him up? ”
"Exactly!" Cao Xin's face was cold, and his face was full of anger: "Shi Yi overthrew tens of thousands of good men in my Chengde in the previous battle, and if I don't retaliate back this time, how can I afford to fall in Yingzhou. Gongzi took Yingzhou with 2,000 cavalry, but our tens of thousands of troops couldn't take Zhangwu, wouldn't it make the world laugh at our incompetence? ”
Liu Chenglin took a deep breath: "Lead the snake out of the hole, and then close the door and beat the dog?" ”
"Yes, Shi Yi is indeed experienced, and he will definitely be able to see the problem at a glance, so tonight he must take advantage of the fact that he has just frustrated the spirit of our army during the day, and his troops are rising in morale, and go out of the city to break through. We, the fight is his breakthrough." Cao Xindao.
"In which direction will the main attack be?" Liu Chenglin asked.
"General Liu is also a veteran of the battlefield, why don't you tell me your opinion, let's take a closer look?" Cao Xin asked with a smile.
Liu Chenglin smiled, glanced at Du Teng, and said: "This person will not attack the North City Gate, because Cao Gong's Chinese army is stationed here, so he will inevitably feint to attack my East Gate and actually attack the West Gate."
Hearing this, Du Teng couldn't bear it anymore: "Why is it a feint to attack the east gate and actually attack the west gate, instead of the other way around?" ”
Liu Chenglin raised his head and said, "Because I'm not so easy to bully."
Du Teng was furious: "Could it be that our Shenzhou soldiers are easy to bully?" ”
Liu Chenglin made it clear that he looked down on the Shenzhou soldiers, but he made the generals of Shenzhou suddenly feel the same hatred for the enemy, took a step forward one by one, and glared angrily at Liu Chenglin, including Hu Twelve, even if he knew that this was the brother-in-law of the little son, but now this brother-in-law even looked down on himself, how could he bear it?
You're just a brother-in-law, not a son-in-law.
"Not convinced?" Liu Chenglin smiled and said, "We'll see each other tonight. Let's see which direction Shi Yi will choose as a breakthrough? If you choose me, then after this battle, I will make amends for you, if you choose you, you just don't want to be a soft-footed crab and ruin Li Gongzi's big thing."
Du Teng's face turned red and said angrily: "Okay, if Shi Yi chooses us, and we have another leak here, then I, Du Teng, will cut off my head for you."
"Okay, don't make these senseless fights, the three battalions, all be ready to attack." Cao Xin knocked on the table and said, "No matter where Shi Yi chooses to be the main breakthrough, the ministry just needs to entangle him to the death."
The Shenzhou Division, and Liu Chenglin's Jingzhou Division, were divided into two distinct lines, lined up to leave the Chinese army's tent, and left each other as if they were fighting cocks.
"Cao Gong, you say, where will Shi Yi choose to make a breakthrough?" While watching the lively Shi Zhuang, he asked Cao Xin with a smile.
Cao Xin raised his eyebrows and said, "General Shi already knows, why bother asking me?" ”
The two looked at each other and laughed
Deep State Bing. Of course, Shi Yi will choose the Deep State soldiers.
This is not because the Shenzhou soldiers are unbearable, but because Shenzhou has just experienced a mutiny, Suning was taken, even because of Li Anguo's prestige and the control of the generals below, the army still maintains stability, but the morale of the army is definitely not as high as that of Liu Chenglin's department. And when it comes to fighting, Liu Chenglin's reputation has been shocked in the north over the years, and Du Teng has really not fought for many years.
"Do you want to put a force behind the Deep State soldiers just in case?" Shi Zhuang asked.
Cao Xin nodded: "Chen Changping, after nightfall, you lead your troops to make a detour to the direction of Xicheng and camp ten miles later, just in case."
"Understood."
Shi Zhuang said with a smile: "Liu Chenglin is really a smart person, please don't be as good as a radical general, his one radical method will inevitably make Du Teng cheer up tonight. This time, Shi Yi bumped into Du Teng, who was determined to earn an old face, and he was afraid that he would hit his head on the iron plate."
"Otherwise, how could Liu Chenglin become a famous general in the north? We are all old, General Shi, in the future, it will be up to you, Liu Chenglin and these young Zhuang factions will destroy the city for the son."
"Gong Cao can see through Liu Chenglin's little tricks at a glance, how dare he say that he is old?" Shi Zhuang shook his head again and again.
