Chapter 713: Wuzhang Yuan and the Slope Valley
Then, after their reinforcements arrived, the Shenji Battalion led by Zhao Zilong had been waiting for them for a long time.
It was not much different from what Zhao Zilong expected, and the Cao Cao Fang garrison in the Xiegu plus Wuzhangyuan had only six or seven thousand people in total.
And it is still dominated by infantry, and there is basically no cavalry.
The cavalry was all mobilized by Cao Cao to Hanzhong.
The 3,000 cavalry led by Cao Hong is already considered elite.
With 10,000 cavalry waiting for work, against 6,000 or 7,000 infantry, there was almost no suspense in this battle.
An hour later, the Shenji battalion led by Zhao Zilong wiped out more than 6,000 infantry with 54 dead and more than 200 casualties.
There's no way around it, after all, they're still behind enemy lines.
And next, Zhao Zilong is ready to occupy the Xiegu Valley and Wuzhang Plain.
Because of this, Zhao Zilong did not dare to accept the captives, let alone put them back.
In that case, you can only kill them all.
Now only the grain convoy remains.
In addition to a small number of officers and soldiers, the vast majority of the remaining people in the grain transportation team are actually conscripted men and ordinary people.
These people were surrounded by Zhao Zilong's 10,000 cavalry, and they were trembling with fright.
The people of the grain transport team basically have no combat effectiveness, and there is no threat to them.
Zhao Zilong didn't think about killing them.
Next, Zhao Zilong left a thousand cavalry to take care of the grain.
The remaining 9,000 people, divided into two routes, quickly attacked the valley and the Wuzhang Plain.
Sure enough, after sending a round of reinforcements, there were basically no troops left in the checkpoints of Wuzhangyuan in the valley at this time.
There are still five zhang plains in the sloping valley, which was easily taken by Zhao Zilong.
Then, Zhao Zilong transported the grain in batches into the Xiegu Valley and Wuzhang Plain.
Next, Zhao Zilong first asked the adjutant to report the military situation to the Emperor of Dahua, Lu Bu, and asked the Emperor of Dahua to make a decision and give instructions for the next step.
The military information is transmitted here, and of course the flying pigeon is used.
Now they are still behind enemy lines, and through normal means, there is no way to transmit information in time.
So, they chose the fastest and fastest method, flying pigeons to pass the book.
Of course, even in Dahua, the flying pigeon biography has not been popularized.
Only a very small number of generals, as well as a few important military ministers, have carrier pigeons, and they can use flying pigeons to pass on books.
After passing on the news here, next, Zhao Zilong rearranged the defense line in the city, preparing to defend it strictly.
The Slope Valley and Dingjun Mountain are very close to Chang'an.
When Cao Cao took control of these two places, he never thought that they would be occupied by the enemy, nor did he think that these two places would fall into the hands of the enemy.
As a result, the fortifications in these two cities were extremely rudimentary.
After Zhao Zilong occupied these two places, he had to step up the construction of defensive fortifications.
……
Soon, Lu Bu received a message from Zhao Zilong.
After reading the information, Lu Bu frowned, and hurriedly called Pang Tong and Guo Jia over.
"Two military advisors, this is the information that Zilong just came over, you can take a look first."
Pang Tong and Guo Jia took the news from Lu Bu's hand and looked at it, and couldn't help but ponder.
After pondering for a long time, Guo Jia couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that General Zilong's strategy is feasible!" 10,000 people occupy Wuzhangyuan and the valley, which is enough to cut off the transportation route from Chang'an to the valley. ”
After listening to Guo Jia's words, Lu Bu couldn't help but say: "However, once Zilong cuts off Cao Cao's grain transportation route, can Cao Cao give up?" In case Cao Cao led a large army to attack Wuzhangyuan and the Slope Valley, how many days would Zilong be able to support it? It's just nonsense! ”
Pang Tong couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty, there is still a sloping valley in Wuzhang Plain, the terrain is narrow, even if Cao Cao leads the army to go, he can't spread it out if there are more people." What's more, we will inevitably involve Cao Cao's army behind our backs, how could we let him gather the army so easily and get out? ”
Hearing Pang Tong's words, Lu Bu couldn't help but think deeply.
Yes, in fact, Dahua's strength is now on a par with Cao Cao, and even Dahua's side has some advantages.
If it is a siege, the two sides are equal in numbers, and the besieging side will definitely not have any advantage.
But what if it was just a simple drag on Cao Cao?
It's easy to do.
There are my Dahua soldiers staring at Cao Cao in the back, and he is not allowed to lead the army to bully Zilong in the whole region.
Thinking of this, Lu Bu couldn't help asking, "Strategist, do you want to continue to send troops for Zilong?" He only had 10,000 cavalry, and the number was still too small. ”
Guo Jia smiled and said: "My lord, the minister thinks that 10,000 guards is enough!" As long as we can hold Cao Cao's army in front, Zilong will not be in any danger. ”
Hearing Guo Jia's words, Lu Bu couldn't help but nodded.
Then, Lu Bu ordered Guo Jia to give Zhao Zilong an order, asking Zhao Zilong to strictly guard against the Xiegu Valley and Wuzhang Plain.
Of course, if it was really impossible to do anything, Lu Bu ordered Zhao Zilong not to defend to the death, and after burning the grain and grass, he quickly evacuated.
……
Yan Bao led the members of the jungle commando team all the way through the primeval mountains and forests in the uninhabited area, and after countless hardships and dangers, he finally came to a small road in Yinping.
This road is really very difficult to walk, if you change to an ordinary team, through hundreds of miles of mountain roads, I am afraid that at least three or four percent of the number of people will be reduced.
However, the members of the jungle commando team have only reduced the number of a few dozen people.
These dozens of people were still injured and could not walk the mountain road, and then ordered them to recuperate in place, and when the wounds were almost recovered, they rushed over to join the large army.
There is no way, the key is the members of the jungle commando, all of whom are selected from the mountains.
Their original living environment was in the vast mountains and infinite jungles.
The terrain here is not much different from the living environment of their hometown.
Therefore, traversing such a no-man's land is as easy for them as drinking water and eating.
Next, under the leadership of the spy officers, they quickly lurked from the trail to the shadows.
There are as many as 5,000 members of the Jungle Commando.
The defenders of Yinping City only had 3,000 people.
Of course, if it was an open attack, with their 5,000 men, there was no possibility of breaking through the city at all.
However, they didn't think about attacking openly.
Under the leadership of Yan Leopard, the members of the Five Thousand Jungle Commandos quietly lurked.
Waiting until the third watch in the middle of the night, Yan Bao ordered the members of the 5,000 jungle commandos to turn into ten squads and quickly lurk under Yinping City.
And Yinping City, because of its steep terrain, is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the most important thing is because it is in the rear.
Therefore, the defenders of Yinping City would never have dreamed that there would be an attack by the army of the Great Hua Kingdom.
The garrison of Yinping City is unbelievably empty
