Chapter Seventy-Four: Battle

Xiaoshang Bridge is the junction of Linying County and Yuncheng County, more than 30 miles away from Linying County and more than 20 miles away from Yuncheng. For the left battalion stationed outside Yuncheng City, it was almost breathing. Therefore, as soon as Zhang Xuan came to Xiaoshangqiao, he didn't dare to rest at all, for fear that the army of the left camp would suddenly come. Hit him off guard. So he immediately ordered to set up camp.

Hundreds of carts, lined up, unloaded the horses. Connected by iron chains, a wall was built out of thin air, and all the artillery was taken out and arranged, ready to be fired at any time.

Zhang Xuan immediately arranged for people to eat in batches.

Everyone added food, and dozens of war horses died in the north of Xiaoshang Bridge, and all of them were given to the soldiers. After lunch, Zhang Xuan and the others continued to work and set up camp. But these things were left to Zhang Zhen to do. And Zhang Xuan paid attention to another thing. I saw a few people sweeping the snow away, getting some dry firewood, dry horse manure, and many strange things.

Zhang Xuan gave an order and immediately ignited the fire.

As soon as these things were lit, there was billowing wolf smoke, and almost several people hugged each other, and they rose to the sky. It was almost impossible to stand around the fire. Isn't it hot, but choking.

This is the means that Zhang Xuan used to contact the city, he will not advance here, and his only use is to strengthen the heart of the soldiers in the city to defend the city. As long as he can hold on for ten days, Li Zicheng's army will also turn back from Kaifeng City.

No matter what kind of small accident happened, Zhang Xuan's purpose of playing this battle had already been achieved. All that's left is to hold on.

"Hold on for ten days." Zhang Xuan secretly said in his heart: "I want to see what Zuo Liangyu uses to rush away from my car formation." In the blink of an eye, he suddenly felt a reflection, and he looked down on the small commercial bridge, but saw that the river was frozen solidly. It's almost a river of ice.

Zhang Xuan's face turned white.

How can a glacier stop the left army from going north, Zhang Xuan never thought that he had made a mistake. All his strategic ideas came to naught.

What to do? What to do?

"The subordinates are guilty, and the general is asked to punish them." Zhang Zhi knelt in the snow, not feeling that the snow had wet his trouser legs.

"It's none of your business." Zhang Xuan said: "You are the one who makes the suggestion, but I am the one who makes the decision." It's my business if there's something. It's just a matter of how we're going to face the situation. "Zhang Xuan may not have complained about Zhang Qian, but he is very restrained, knowing what is the use of punishing him in this situation?"

"Actually, the general doesn't have to worry too much." Cao Zongyu spoke, he said: "Although the Xiaoshang River can't stop the army, but the Xiaoshang Bridge is still the only way for Zuoying to go north, today, Luo Dai has fallen into the snow nest, and the entire river is covered with ice and snow, and the snow has not yet melted, knowing where is the void and where is the reality." Hence the left

When the battalion goes north, it must take this road. We hold here, we can still shield Linying, however, to prevent the left army from attacking our camp, don't take a detour, and the Central Plains, a horse and a flat river, even if the Xiaoshang River is not frozen now, when the left camp wants to cross, can really not cross? ”

"There is no danger in the world that cannot be crossed." Zhang Xuan said secretly in his heart. But at this time, you can't go back. When Zhang Xuanzhong was thinking about what to do, how did he hear someone shouting: "It's coming, it's coming." ”

Zhang Xuan immediately looked to the south.

The cavalry brigade arrived.

It seems that no one walks much in the wilderness, the snow is extremely flat, and the horse's hooves have not yet stepped on the snow under their feet. The cavalry brigade did not come very quickly. No, Zhang Xuan stood on top of the carriage, but he saw that the south was full of people and horses, and he couldn't see much for a while, but he felt that his eyes were full.

"At least five thousand horsemen." Luo Dai just glanced at it and reported the quantity. said: "However, the general don't worry, our formation is not afraid of horseback, no matter how many cavalry there is, it is just a dish." ”

Zhang Xuan really wanted to say to Luo Dai where I was afraid. He also noticed that his calf was shaking unnaturally, which he couldn't control. Zhang Xuan doesn't know how many times he has done psychological construction. I feel like my heart is already strong. But at the moment, my heart is still worried.

Before, Zhang Xuan was just listening to orders under other people's accounts. Just do your own thing. But at this moment, he has the control of the whole army, at least within a few hundred miles of the center of the battlefield, except for the friendly army that is surrounded to death in Yuncheng, there is no other friendly army that can come to support.

Zhang Xuan must rely on himself to support the overall situation. How could he not panic, but no matter how flustered he was, he couldn't show it, so he kicked Luo Dai and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?" Go down and rest, there is nothing to do with you here, and when the people are repulsed, I still count on you to pursue, and if you become a soft-footed shrimp at that time, I will not be able to spare you. ”

"Yes." Luo Dai didn't talk to Zhang Xuan this time.

Zhang Xuan said: "Brother Cao, this first formation will be handed over to you." ”

Cao Zongyu said: "The last general will definitely be able to stop the enemy army.

Zhang Xuan said: "Deng and you guard the left, Wang Jincai you guard the right, and I will be behind you, watching you break the official army." ”

"Yes." Deng He and Wang Jincai responded one after another, and they all went down to make arrangements.

Zhang Xuan was not far from Cao Zongyu's car formation, I don't know when he moved here to a Taishi chair, Zhang Xuan sat on it, one hand on his cheek, one hand gently patted on the armrest, and hummed softly: "Ten thousand arrows are fired, the soldiers are coming to the city, who will share the world with me?" But the tone in his mouth did not match the paddle in his hand at all, and he had already gone to his grandmother's house. Even the lyrics are stringed.

"Calm, calm." Zhang Xuan thought in his heart: "Even if I am not calm, I must pretend to be calm." Now everyone is watching

I. ”

Thousands of cavalry stopped five hundred paces in front of the formation. Zuo Mengeng took out the clairvoyant mirror from his arms and pulled it away, looking at the opposite formation, but saw that the opposite side was connected to everything with a strange carriage with iron chains, and the soldiers were all holding spears, swords and shields waiting for hand-to-hand combat, and then their eyes focused on Zhang Xuan.

"Pretending." Zuo Mengeng said: "Rush over and bring me the head of the thief leader." ”

Zuo Qing doesn't have a clairvoyant mirror in his hand, and the clairvoyant mirror is still a rare thing in this era, but he can also see the situation on the other side from a distance, although he can't really see it, but he can also see it clearly. This formation is like a small city, and it is not easy to charge with cavalry.

He said, "Young Master, this ---"

Before Zuo Qing finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zuo Mengeng, and Zuo Mengeng said, "What? What I said didn't work, I had to let my dad say it. ”

"No, no, no." Zuo Qing immediately said: "The subordinates will do it, and the subordinates will do it." ”

He immediately went down to arrange, however, although Zuo Qing was not strong in fighting, the situation here was still understood, and he gathered several generals under his command to his side, and said: "Wait a while, rush first, the thieves put up this formation, if there is no artillery bow and crossbow, it will be impossible, most likely the thief will hide the artillery bow and crossbow, you go up this time, go around in a circle, give me the thief's artillery bow and crossbow to figure out, and then retreat." ”

"Yes." The generals under Zuo Qing's command said in unison.

Zuo Qing waved his hand and let them go.

But after a while, more than a thousand horsemen were ready, slowly accelerated, and began to rush towards Zhang Xuan's formation.

Zhang Xuan's breathing tightened in an instant, and he deliberately calmed down in an instant, but he didn't feel that the other breathing was much heavier than before.

"Five hundred steps." Cao Zongyu watched the snowdrift that originally marked the distance in the distance being kicked away by the horse's hooves, and silently muttered in his heart, he noticed that the horse team of the left army seemed to be rushing very fiercely, but in fact, they all had reservations, and it seemed that hundreds of people were in a team, leaving distance and space between each other, and deliberately making evasive moves. Moreover, the snow on the ground is not shallow, which is not suitable for horses to run.

Obviously, no one is a fool, they are all veterans who have fought wars, even if they are mediocre generals, they still understand the most basic routines.

"Four hundred steps." Cao Zongyu said secretly.

At this moment, the speed of the enemy's horses increased little by little, and at the same time, the shaking of the ground became more and more intense, and there was some snow on the trees by the river, under such vibrations, it fell in a slump, blown by the wind, and hit Zhang Xuan's face, as if it was a light snow.

Zhang Xuan didn't seem to feel this coldness, his heart was beating faster at the moment, and the blood flow in his veins was speeding.

"Three hundred steps."
