Chapter 359: The Battle of Jingzhou (7)

Liu Biao is in Xiangyang, the left waits for Zhang Xiu and can't come, and the right waits for Zhang Xiu can't come. didn't know that Zhang Xiu had retreated. Cao Cao's soldiers danced in Yin, backed Runan, and vowed to take Nanyang before stopping. Huang Zu and Cai Mao firmly guarded Xinye and Sui County. to cut off the water.

However, it was said that Sun Jian led the army into Jingnan to help Zhang Xian's momentum. Sun Jian used to be the Taishou of Changsha and had prestige here. When the people saw it, they were afraid of its momentum, and they abandoned Liu Biao and attached themselves to it. Sun Jian got tens of thousands of people, so he besieged Hanshou.

Hanshou is a rare big city in Jingzhou, guarding the main road of Jing and Yi. It has always been the seat of Jingzhou Thorn History. It wasn't until Liu Biao rode into Jingzhou that he moved to Xiangyang.

If Hanshou can be captured, Wuling County will go down without a fight, and then the four counties of Jingnan will be their own. The idea is very good, but unfortunately in Hanshou ran into Wenpin.

The art of war has clouds, ten are to surround it, five are to attack it, and multiple is to fight. The troops led by Sun Jian were comparable to those of Wenpin, and they could neither besiege nor attack. Sun Jian tentatively attacked several times, but was easily repelled by Wen Ping.

Obeying the law is said to be one and ten. This is the current state of Wenpin. With the back of Jiancheng, the material resources behind it are constantly coming, if it can still be broken by Sun Jian, it will really be in vain. Hanshou was hired by the clerk and guarded tightly. However, defending the city was not his pursuit, he was ordered to quell the rebellion, not to defend the city.

There is Yuanshui outside Hanshou and mountains in the north. Sun Jian was proficient in the art of war, and first set up a fortress by the water to prevent the Jingzhou soldiers from crossing the water to attack. It also makes people occupy the north mountain, condescending, to overlook Hanshou. After the arrangements were properly made, Sun Jian began to sweep around.

Wenpin, don't you want to defend the city, then you can stay honest in the city. I have led my army to attack outside the city, and I will see if you will come out.

Sun Jian led people to set fire to houses outside the city, killing and plundering the people. and repeatedly drove the people to attack the city, Han Shouling saw that he couldn't bear it, and came to see Wen Ping: "General, Sun Jian is outside, slaughtering innocents, and the general is sitting and watching?" ”、

Wen Ping said: "I have my own plans. ”

Han Shouling's repeated persuasion was fruitless, so he had to go away with hatred.

It was night, the moon was hidden and the stars were sinking, and suddenly, in the dense forest far west of the city, the fire flared up. Wen Ping saw it, stroked his palm and smiled: "Since the national security comes, Sun Jian can be broken." ”

But it turned out that Wen Ping and Liu Pan led troops together, and when the soldiers arrived in Hanshou, Wen Ping said to Liu Pan: "Jingnan has rebelled against the three counties, I don't know how Wuling is too guarded, and the national security will go with me." "Changsha, Lingling, and Guiyang have been reversed, if Wuling Taishou is also unclear, then they will kill themselves when they come to Hanshou.

Liu Pan said: "Yuanji has accumulated Hanchen for generations, and he will not be a thief." ”

At this time, Wuling Taishou was Jin Xuan, a Jingzhao person, and it is rumored that he was a descendant of Jin Riyan, a famous minister of Emperor Xiaowu. Jin Riyan is the crown prince of the Hun Hutu, and he has been in the Han Dynasty for a long time, and he is undoubtedly Liu Pan.

Wen Ping said with a smile: "The country is safe and goes to Linyuan, with the heart of the people." If Sun Jian comes to attack, you go down the water, and I will respond internally, and I can break it together. "No matter what Jin Xuan does, it's good for you to take the people and horses to Wuling County to govern Linyuan and appease the people.

Liu Pan was right when he thought about it, so he led his troops to Linyuan. In Linyuan City, Jin Xuan heard that reinforcements were coming, and hurriedly went out to greet him. Jin Xuan didn't have any idea of being a thief, but Wuling County was next to Changsha and Lingling County, and there was a big chaos, and the county was boiling. I heard that in the southernmost county, Wulingman began to make trouble again. Jin Xuan is also the first two big ones in the county, and he sent troops to rescue him, but he was afraid that Changsha would attack Linyuan and lose it; If you don't save it, you are afraid of falling. Now that he heard Liu Pan say that the Wenpin army had entered Hanshou, Jin Xuanfang breathed a sigh of relief.

Liu Pan was in Linyuan for a few days, and was invited to a banquet by the gentry in the city one after another. As soon as Liu Yuanjun's reinforcements came, they also relaxed. At the very least, the temporary net worth is worry-free. Otherwise, the war will be chaotic, not to mention the things outside the body, such as homes and fields, and once the army passes, I don't know if I can save my life.

Liu Pan lingered at the banquet and was dizzy every day, but fortunately he did not forget Wen Ping's instructions, and he made a report on this day, saying that Sun Jian had led tens of thousands of people to attack Hanshou.

Liu Pan immediately sobered up, so he came to see Taishou Jinxuan, and said: "Fujun, Sun Jian has reached Hanshou, and I have an appointment with Zhongye to fight this thief together." I will say goodbye today. ”

Jin Xuan held his hand and sent it away: "This official is convenient for Linyuan, and he is waiting for the news of the general's triumph." After the two said goodbye, Liu Pan went down the river, and when he arrived in Hanshou, a scout came to report, saying that there was Sun Jian's water village thirty miles ahead. Liu Pan led all the soldiers to go ashore, walked along the riverbank, and when they arrived in Xicheng, they lay in the forest and raised the fire as a trumpet.

For several days, no matter how Sun Jian lured the enemy, Wen Ping just couldn't hold out. Sun Jian was very surprised, and said to Chang Shi Chengpu this night: "Wen Ping is a general in Jingzhou, known for his martial bravery, but now he can't defend the city, he must be cheated!" Although Sun Jian was conceited and capable of fighting, he was not arrogant enough to think that he could scare Wenpin into closing the city and fearing war.

Cheng Pu and Yu Fu also felt that there must be something strange in the meantime, and after thinking about it, they felt that between offense and defense, it was nothing more than a few tricks. So Cheng Pu said: "Our army only needs to stick to the critical places and take more precautions at night to cope with all changes, but it is okay." ”

Sun Jian thought about it and felt that he had set up fortifications in Yuanshui, Beishan and other places. If there are ambushes outside, you will definitely be able to get the news. Moreover, his army can't help fighting at night, and Wen Ping wants to come to steal the camp, but he doesn't want to. So I was a little relieved.

Suddenly, I heard a big earthquake in the golden drum outside the camp, and after a while, a small colonel hurriedly came to report: "Lord, Wen Ping went out of the city at night and attacked my camp!" ”

Sun Jian and Cheng Pu glanced at each other, laughed, and their worries disappeared. It turned out that Wen Ping wanted to exhaust himself with arrogant tactics, and then attack the camp at night. Wen Zhongye, Wen Zhongye, you are still a little tender. Sun Jian thought as he took the hood and draped it neatly, and led the crowd out of the account.

Outside the tent, Sun Jian looked around, only to see countless fire dragons meandering towards him, and the Jingzhou army shouting and shouting signs, coming in unison. The ravine in front of the camp has been filled, and the iron cable has hooked the fence at the entrance of the camp, and with the shout of the Jingzhou army, the fence with the thickness of the bowl mouth has fallen down. In an instant, the Jingzhou soldiers poured in like a black tide.

The Yangzhou soldiers were in the battalion, running around in an orderly manner, using sand to destroy the rockets that kept coming in. One by one, the captains shouted and lined up in a military formation to counterattack.

In the front camp, arrows poured rain, and at the front, the sword and shield men of the two armies had already fought fiercely. With bursts of screams and wails, the human head rolled to the ground, and the stump and severed arm flew into the air with each slash. In a short time, the place was already full of corpses.

Then I heard a drum beating, and I saw a man in a big battle, and he came with a cavalry. In the firelight, the words of Dou Da were faintly visible. When Sun Jian saw it, he said in his heart that he would be hired, and he would see me capture it. So he also brought the cavalry of his department to fight.

Jing and Yang are located in the south, and the river network is crisscrossed, and the cavalry is almost useless. However, because of the amazing impact of the cavalry, there are also a small number of cavalry under the command of the major generals in Jingzhou, which are used to break through the enemy.

Sun Jian came to fight for civil employment. Wen Pin blocked it head-on. Sun Jian was in the prime of life at this time, and Wenpin was even more at the time of fighting. The two immediately fought. The pro-armies on both sides were not idle, and the main generals were fighting, and they also had their own blades in their hands, charging back and forth to fight.

Cheng Pu saw it, if Xindao could break through Wenpin in one fell swoop, Hanshou would be at his fingertips. So he transferred all the troops to come together and attack the Wenpin army. Yu rolled his brows and frowned slightly, vaguely feeling inappropriate in his heart, but he couldn't say it. He put down his mind and led his army to help in the war.
