Chapter 619: The Youzhou Army Moves to the City
Just when Duan Wenyang led the army and rushed towards the county seat of Dai County, at the border of Dai County, at the junction with Fanyang County, there was also a large army.
However, compared with Duan Wenyang's men and horses, there is a fundamental difference in the composition of this army and horses, that Duan Wenyang's soldiers and horses are more cavalry than foot soldiers, and this army is mainly foot soldiers, supplemented by cavalry.
"Wang Jun, the general has also sent you over, this is foolproof!" At this time, in the large camp of the army, a sturdy general, full of armor and a golden sword, was sitting in front of him, and was greeting the scribe in front of him.
This scribe was Wang Jun's confidant Wang Qian, and sitting opposite him was one of Wang Jun's generals, known as Ruan Bao, the lieutenant general who captured the army.
This Ruan Bao is a general on the same level as Wang Chang, that Wang Chang led the troops to besiege Thorn City before, although he failed to do his best, but he led only a small number of vanguards, which can compete with the other three parties, in addition to Wang Jun's backstage, he also relied on his own real achievements.
Ruan Bao is as famous as him, and this skill is self-evident.
However, looking at Ruan Bao sitting on the other side, Wang Jian knew that the other party was actually worried in his heart, so he put on such a formation-
Wang Jian came over as Wang Jun's commissioner and representative, and he should be warmly entertained, but Ruan Bao seemed to be very well entertained, not only personally out of the tent to greet him, but also gathered all the generals under him, but as soon as he entered the camp, the situation changed abruptly, Ruan Bao sat on the chair, and those generals were on both sides, surrounding Wang Jian in the middle, and all eyes were staring at him.
Just looking at this posture and feeling the atmosphere inside, I didn't know that I thought I was going to interrogate Wang Qian.
"General, I came here this time, the general said very clearly, he is here to assist the general, after all, Chen Zhi has some background, you still have to pay attention to it, the general knows that General Ruan is brave and good at fighting, I am afraid that you will fight smoothly and damage that Chen Zhi too much, and if you negotiate with those families in the Central Plains afterwards, there will be trouble." Wang rushed to open his mouth, and Ruan Bao's expression on the other side relaxed.
The lieutenant general laughed, knowing that his mind was seen through by the king, and he did not shy away from it, and said directly: "Mr. Wang, don't blame, I am a soldier from a family, and I am really idle with my brothers, plus I have sent troops before, and I have also met a few people who are in the name of a general, so they will deal with themselves as superintendents and act indiscriminately in the camp, that's all, I'm afraid that they will command indiscriminately, what is the most taboo in this war?" Isn't it just that the military order is not unified, and the government is out of two doors! ”
Yes, the reason why he put up such a battle was that he was worried that Wang Jun would send the king to rush over, so that he would divide part of his authority, and the king would come to supervise the army, and there would be one more person beside him to point fingers, but any general who was a little majestic would not be willing.
But Wang Qian's words undoubtedly showed his attitude, and he came to assist, and he said this in front of many generals under his command, which was a certainty, and if he wanted to change it afterwards, Ruan Bao also had something to say.
Ruan Bao followed and said: "Mr. Wang, please take a seat, ......" He finally asked people to prepare the seat, stepped forward in person, and said, "Actually, I am also worried in my heart, before the Taishou sent me to pursue the Hun thief, but the other party was cunning, afraid of the might of our army, several times to break free, and finally it was difficult to escape, I really have a burden, I am ashamed, I will inevitably think more." ”
"The general's words are wrong," Wang shook his head and said: "If it weren't for the general's encirclement and suppression, then how could the Huns flee from the wind, and even more in a panic, they ran directly to Najizhou and cut off contact with the Xiongnu headquarters. ”
When Ruan Bao heard this, he was satisfied and laughed, but he also knew in his heart that this was Wang rushing to put gold on himself.
Not only Ruan Bao is clear, but Wang Qi also knows in his heart, why the Hun soldiers and horses left, it has nothing to do with Ruan Bao's pursuit at all, not only that, when Ruan Bao was chasing the Hun soldiers and horses, he also fell into the other party's ambushes and schemes several times, not only did he get nothing, but also lost his troops, such a result, no wonder he was worried that Wang Jun sent someone to elevate himself.
In fact, Wang Jun is really dissatisfied with this, but now is not the time to investigate, one of the reasons why Wang rushed over is also in line with the fact that it is better to make merit than to make mistakes, this Ruan Bao himself also knows the stakes, and if he wants to satisfy Wang Jun, he has to go all out when attacking and suppressing Chen Zhi.
"Regarding this generation of Jun Chenzhi, what strategy does Mr. Wang have to teach me?" Without waiting for Wang to mention it, Ruan Bao took the initiative to mention the matter, but there was a taste of eagerness in his words.
Wang Jian said very wisely: "I am only assisting in this matter, and the general can implement any strategy, and I will at most check and fill in the gaps." ”
"Where, Mr. Wang's ability, I have seen it myself, since Mr. is here, how can I disobey?" Ruan Bao also knows that he will accept it when he sees it, and he understands the truth of repaying the peach, no matter what Wang Jian says, he is Wang Jun's henchman, and what Ruan Bao asks for is just that the military power is not threatened, how to attack this specifically, he really doesn't take it to heart, in his opinion, the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in that section of Xianbei are enough to suppress Chen Zhi, and he is just an additive.
Wang Jian saw that Ruan Bao really had the heart to ask for advice, and he pondered for a while, and asked: "I entered the camp just now, and seeing that the camp is not ready to go to battle, could it be that the general is planning to wait and see the situation in Daixian, and wait for Duan Wenyang and Chen Zhi to fight a battle, and then decide to advance and retreat?" ”
"Not bad!" Ruan Bao didn't hide it, nodded and smiled, "Although Duan Wenyang is irritable and not a general, he still has a hand in leading troops to fight, especially in a tailwind battle, this time he took tens of thousands of horses to besiege Dai County, and Wang Quan as a backup, naturally there will be no loss, why should I fight with him?" ”
After saying a word, he turned to say: "However, Wang Jun, you don't have to worry that I don't respect the general's order, I also just transferred the soldiers and horses, and stationed here for repair, also in order not to arouse the suspicion of that Chen Zhi, Mr. should also know that this Chen Zhi has trained a group of spies, which have been spread, and my subordinates have caught one or two before, which shows that this person is also cautious." ”
Speaking, he pointed to the outside of the account: "This place is not far from the Gu'an Town of Fanyang County, before the Hun thief army, it was from here to escape, I have been leading the troops to garrison, is to have soldiers here, even if Chen Zhi's spies find out, there will be no vigilance, but if you rashly lead the army to break into the county, it is a grass startling snake, this attack on Chen, or the main section, to prevent extraneous branches." ”
"That's a mistake," Wang Jian shook his head, "The general attaches great importance to this matter, and from the arrangements before and after, the general should also be able to see that in this case, why should the army be stopped here?" Even if Chen Zhi is bound to be defeated, but what the general values is whether his order is passable, since General Ruan can also see that this march is victorious and undefeated, why leave people to speak? Otherwise, Duan Wenyang will be investigated afterwards, and Duan Wenyang will be benefited, but the blame will fall on the general. ”
"Huh?" When Ruan Bao heard this, he was shocked and understood the meaning of those words.
To put it bluntly, what Wang Jun values at the moment is whether he can defeat Chen Zhi, and when this thing is done, in retrospect, he should value his own orders and whether it works, and then look at Ruan Bao, if he has to order but not move, maybe he will have prejudices.
The logic in this is not complicated, but Ruan Bao thought with a soldier's thinking before, and it was inevitable that there were blind spots, and he did not see the political flavor in it.
"If it weren't for Mr. reminding, there would be a big mistake!" Ruan Bao stood up, frowned, pondered for a moment, and nodded, "Yes, since there will be no mistakes, why bother to consider Chen Zhi's suspicions, this general will order the army to pull out!" Attacking Dangcheng County, I thought it was echoing, and I wanted to come to that section of Wenyang to fight Dangcheng first, just to help him! His cavalry is not good at siege! ”
Seeing this, Wang rushed to say no more, in his opinion, it was also a safe move to attack the city, and went to the barrier of Daixian, and in case the attack on Daixian was not smooth, there was also a support behind it, otherwise it would be a front and back attack.
Moreover, in his mind, with the temperament of that section of Wenyang and the current situation of Duan Xianbei, it is very likely that that section of Wenyang will not attack the city and go straight to Daixian, so it can be regarded as a supplement and restriction.
Thinking so, he reminded again: "General Ruan, this time Youzhou sent troops to attack Daijun, and when it reached the ears of the imperial court, there must be someone to talk about it, so the banner of the general is to drive away the Xianbei small clan coalition army that entered the city, so when you attack the city, you must be restrained, after all, they are all Han people, and in the end, they are also under the rule of the general, and it is not Chen Zhi who is in charge, maybe they dare not resist at all, and they can be taken with a move to surrender and send it over." ”
"I naturally know this," Ruan Bao laughed, "Those sour Confucians in the court, one by one, only have this ability, as long as there is an excuse to prevaricate, they dare to be angry but dare not speak!" ”
As he spoke, he stood up and issued several orders in succession, and marched vigorously, and the army had already moved according to his will.
After a round of orders were issued, Ruan Bao turned around and said to the king with a smile: "Within three days, I will arrive in the city, I heard that the defenders in the city are less than 5,000, and they are all rabble. It's bound to break their guts! ”
Wang Qian nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "Calculate the time, the siege has begun." ”
Half a day later, on the official road outside Dai County, the dust was flying, covering the sky and the sun, thousands of horses were galloping, the ground was shaking, although there were not many merchants and people along the way, but they were also frightened and retreated, in the grass on the side of the road, looking at the soldiers and horses that were galloping away, they were all frightened.
"This Hu man is really here!"
"Originally, I was lucky, I wanted to take the opportunity to take a trip to the goods, and I regretted it!"
"Dai County, in danger! There are so many fierce Hu people, endlessly, not to mention tens of thousands, that Taishou is dangerous! ”
