Chapter 338: Gone shit luck
Chapter 338 took shit luck
As Ana's eyes met Xiao Zhiyun, Sanniang told Zhao Yougong's instructions again, Xiao Zhiyun's beautiful eyes flashed, her expression was complicated, and she seemed to be excited and sad. That night, several generals left behind in Dayangtan all gathered at the command office, and finally left Zhang Gong to lead a thousand men and horses to garrison Dayangtan, and the rest of them all went north, at the same time Ana also rode to the ancient town, and Hu Sanniang took Xiao Zhiyun's handwritten letter to Tongzhou. Overnight, nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses hidden in various parts of Tongzhou all took action, waiting for the next morning, the people of Tongzhou felt a little different, they found that there seemed to be fewer soldiers patrolling in Tongzhou City, but there were many guards at the city gates, and many knights were constantly going in and out.
On April 18, the cavalry of the 2,000 Cheetah Battalion under the command of Yelusha of Wuzhou crossed the Zhuchuan River, and the town of Yueningyuan approached the Caocheng River north of the Lan Valley to the south, and the 2,000 cavalry approached the Caocheng River. Cai You laughed with the letter, because he thought it should be a distress letter, but when he opened the letter, Cai You was completely dumbfounded, which is this a distress letter? The letter was not much, only a few sentences, but it was so amazing.
Da Lang opened his eyes wide and saw that the army of this king stood on the Caocheng River and defeated the barbarian cavalry. It's only two thousand, so why be afraid, this king stretched out his fingers and gently crushed it. ”
Surprised, so shocked that his mouth couldn't close, Cai You smashed his mouth, at first he thought he was wrong, look at what the letter said, His Royal Highness Zhao is going to go out of the city to confront the Liao cavalry. It is really fearless for the ignorant, Cai You seemed to be able to think of how His Royal Highness Zhao had failed, and he stood up and called for a personal soldier. Shouted urgently. "Hurry up to the Kusagi River. Let's see what's going on over there. ”
Cai You is looking forward to Zhao Yougong's death in a battle, Zhao Xiaojun Wang seems to be very obedient, at this time he has led his generals north to Caocheng River, just after noon, Yu Lai led a group of people to drag a few carts to the grass north of Caocheng River, the cart is loaded with several big drums and gongs, in addition to these, there are also a bunch of iron pots and iron basins. See what's in the car. Zhao Yougong grinned and shook his head, Yu Lai didn't seem to know what stupid things he had done, so he walked over and arched his hand, "Your Highness, all the things that can be knocked in the army have been brought, these are not enough, if they are not enough, the last general will also get those broken crockpots that are not needed." ”
"Enough, enough, Yulai. This king is really convinced, you can get some pots and pans. Why did even the eliminated broken shield be pulled? ”
After Zhao Yougong sprayed a bunch of saliva, he didn't bother to say more, Yu Lai also felt depressed, the order passed by the little lady of Azhu was to bring everything that could be sounded in the army, and this shield could also be sounded, and the movement was no worse than the gong.
More than 50 miles north of Caocheng River is Ningyuan Town, at this time a cavalry stopped in the south of Ningyuan Town, and was not in a hurry to go south, this time the commander of this cavalry is the cavalry commander Han Dexiang under Yelusha, this Han Dexiang is more than 40 years old, and he has experienced a lot of wars, because Han Dexiang is calm, so Yelusha dares to rest assured that Han Dexiang will lead more than 2,000 cavalry to wander near Ningyuan Town. Han Dexiang also had a whim to fight Caochengchuan, he was wandering around Ningyuan Town these days, but he was a little idle and panicked, I heard that Caochengchuan's defense was weak, why not take the opportunity to go there to fight Caochengchuan? Although the Kusakigawa has long been robbed of nothing, there are always fish that slip through the net. Even in the face of the ruined Caocheng River, Han Dexiang was still not too careless, he still sent a dozen spies, and the others stayed near Ningyuan Town to rest.
At the end of the day, the spies sent back, and one of the team leaders dismounted and replied, "General Han, there are suddenly many Song soldiers near Caocheng River, and those Song soldiers don't know what they are shouting. ”
Han Dexiang frowned, wondering, how could a brigade of Song soldiers come out of Caochengchuan? According to the normal situation, those weak and bullying Song soldiers should be more in Langu, Caocheng River has no danger to defend, and they still came here to shout, aren't they looking for death? However, the more this is the case, Han Dexiang did not dare to mess around, because the Song soldiers had never dared to resist the Great Liao Iron Cavalry head-on before, so the Song soldiers near the Caocheng River were either relied on or a group of fools.
"I'm going to take a look" Han Dexiang got on the horse and led the troops south with more than a dozen generals in the department, and after more than 20 miles, he could already hear some sounds, and a few miles ahead, he heard it more really, as if the Song soldiers on the opposite side were beating gongs and drums, and in addition to that, there were some harsh dangdang sounds, which sounded like the sound of striking iron. After approaching Caocheng River, Han Dexiang understood, and there was a group of Song soldiers standing on the opposite side, and there were as many as 5,000 people in front of them, most of them were holding gongs and drums, and some people were carrying iron pots, knocking on the sound of the sky, and the Da Liao Iron Cavalry had just arrived, and those people shouted excitedly as if they had taken some medicine.
"The Liao soldiers on the opposite side come here, come here, let's lie down and let you step on it, the Liao soldiers on the opposite side are not coming, come here, see whose knife is fast"
Han Dexiang could understand Chinese, his face was very complicated, and the more the Song soldiers on the other side called them over, the more he didn't dare to go over. If you want to say that a person is stupid and wants to find death, it is still possible, but it is absolutely impossible for 5,000 Song soldiers to beat gongs and drums to find death together, and it is impossible for more than 5,000 people to find death together, so there is only one possibility left, what conspiracy and tricks have been prepared by these Song soldiers are waiting for the Great Liao Tie to break through.
"General Han, give the last general five hundred soldiers and horses, and the last general will scatter those hateful Song people in the blink of an eye" A bearded man stared at the bull's eye and stroked his chest, the bearded man's name is Xiao Li, he is a well-known fierce man, this guy knows how to rush forward when he fights, and he doesn't care about it at all, if not, he can't be a soldier for more than ten years and just a small cavalry captain.
Han Dexiang waved his hand and shouted majestically, "Xiao Li, Hugh is talking nonsense, without the order of the general, no one is allowed to rush forward without authorization, and those who violate it will be dealt with by military law." ”
Han Dexiang would not rashly attack, he was still carefully observing, and after a while, the Song soldiers on the opposite side saw that the Great Liao Iron Horse was standing still and looking at the scenery, and suddenly became a little impatient, and shouted at the top of his voice, "The Liao people on the other side are coming, the daylilies we are waiting for are cold." You don't move, we are anxious to wait, and the flowers are thanks. ”
Han Dexiang's heart was beating wildly. I waited for the flowers. How these Song soldiers hope that the Great Liao Iron will ride over. Will they want to die? It's almost the same as looking forward to the death of Da Liao Tie, right? Look around, on both sides are unique loess hills, if someone blocks the back road at this time, left and right, there are Song soldiers in front, it is really closed to fight dogs, damn, the Han people are digging pits for the big Liao iron horse. At this time, not only can he not attack, but he also has to retreat as much as possible, if the retreat is late, after a while, another group of Song soldiers will block the back road, and his cavalry will all be buried in Caochengchuan.
Thinking of what might happen, Han Dexiang's face turned pale, and he immediately turned his horse's head and shouted at the generals, "Withdraw quickly, it's too late soon." Han Dexiang fled north in a panic, and the rest of the people didn't know what was going on. Thinking that he had encountered some conspiracy, he followed Han Dexiang to turn the horse's head and run back, this escape must have been chaotic, and a few unlucky ghosts fell off the horse and were directly trampled to death by the war horse.
Han Dexiang led more than 2,000 cavalry to run desperately, and the Song soldiers near Caocheng River were stunned. It's really hell, a gong and drum beat sent away more than 2,000 fierce Khitan cavalry, looking at the panicked and fleeing of those Liao cavalry, many soldiers laughed.
Zhao Yougong's Tongzhou soldiers and horses, although they are well-trained and worthy of elite soldiers, but it is the first time to really face the Liao cavalry on the battlefield, so if you are not nervous, it is completely a lie. This time scared away the Liao cavalry, which made these recruits feel a lot more relieved, and some soldiers even pointed to the north and sneered, "It is said that the Khitan cavalry is as fierce as a tiger, and it is nothing more than this when we see it today, we haven't fought yet, these people are running away like crazy, haha"
The soldiers and horses in the same state, the military heart is available, but it is a great good thing, when he came to Caochengchuan, Zhao Yougong was most worried about the psychological quality of a group of recruits. Well, now, it will both solve the crisis and increase the self-confidence of the soldiers. After this incident, it is estimated that these people under him will not be so afraid of the Liao soldiers.
This time I was able to scare away the Liao soldiers, in fact, it was taking advantage of the psychology of normal people, just like the empty city plan sung by Zhuge Liang, the lighter it is, the more people often dare not ask for it, because there is a conspiracy hidden in it. If Han Dexiang was a dumbfounder, he rushed up regardless of it, and he really had a headache for King Zhao Xiaojun.
In Taiyuan Mansion, Cai You was waiting for good news, but who knew that what he was waiting for was the news of Zhao Xiaojunwang's easy victory. After hearing what happened, Cai You was shocked and angry, King Zhao Xiaojun didn't know about military affairs, and dragged a group of rabble to the grassland to fight with the Liao cavalry.
"This Han Dexiang is really a stupid person, he doesn't want good military skills, it's just stupid."
Cai You couldn't think too much, the only thing he could think about was that King Zhao Xiaojun had shit luck and ran into a confused general. However, Zhang Jun didn't think like Cai You, he felt that Han Dexiang had not done anything wrong, and Zhang Jun would have chosen to retreat if he had replaced him, maybe King Zhao Xiaojun didn't have any conspiracy, but his move happened to be in line with the theory of combining fiction and reality in the Art of War.
After Han Dexiang returned to Wuzhou City, he learned the truth from Yelusha's mouth, he was annoyed at this time, he knew that there was a king of the Great Song County in front of him, and there was indeed no conspiracy, he just risked his life to make this contribution. clenched his fists, slammed the table, and said angrily, "General, it's all to blame for the incompetence of the general, and he ran away from the king of the Great Song Dynasty for nothing." ”
"General Han Hugh said this kind of thing, don't say you, it was the general who came in person, and he didn't dare to do it in that situation at that time. In the past, the commander often said that as a general, you need to love the soldiers like sons, and don't want the warriors to lose their lives senselessly. Therefore, your choice at that time was right, and before you found out the situation, in case the other party had a back-up move, it was the best choice to withdraw your troops as much as possible. If you want to blame God, you can blame God for taking too much care of the waste county king, but there is no need to be discouraged, when the marshal and His Royal Highness King Xi break the Song soldiers near Yingzhou, we can free up our hands to attack Ninghua and Qilan, and if you want to capture the waste county king alive at that time, there is no chance? ”
"General Xie is relieved, Han is just angry, he has led the troops for many years, and he actually let a waste play once, and ask the general to complete, if he wants to capture Zhao Yougong alive in the future, please let the last general be the vanguard."
"What's so hard about that? Now we just need to defend Wuzhou, if necessary, and send troops to reinforce the marshal, now there are only more than 30,000 people in the hands of the marshal and His Royal Highness King Xi, and there are as many as 70,000 Song soldiers, this battle is not easy to fight. ”
Yelusha frowned and smiled bitterly, the more so, the more he felt that the burden on his body was heavy, there were a total of 130,000 soldiers and horses in Xijing, half of them were left near Yunzhong Mansion in Xijing, and the remaining half of the marshal and His Royal Highness King Xi received more than 30,000, and the remaining 50,000 horses were all put in Wuzhou City, which shows how much the marshal values Wuzhou City, so no matter what, Wuzhou City cannot be lost. Yerusha's biggest advantage is that he knows what to do and what not to do, his most important task now is to defend Wuzhou, except for Wuzhou, he doesn't care about anything else, even if there are hundreds of boxes of gold outside, he will not be tempted, defend Wuzhou, even if he completes the task assigned by the marshal.
