325.Chapter 325: Defeat and Escape
I have to say that Yong'an Guard is indeed quite talented.
As a battlefield veteran, he saw birds circling and chirping in the woods outside the city, but he didn't dare to land. Immediately, I knew that there must be someone in the woods.
When Gan Ning and the others beat drums and shouted, falsely claiming to be an army of 100,000, he was only a little flustered, and he understood that this was the other party's bluff.
The words of the Yong'an defender made the defenders of the city feel a little calmer.
Among the soldiers, there was no shortage of wise people, and when they looked at the small woods outside, they knew that there were not many horses hidden.
Thinking of this, everyone scolded loudly: "Shameless villain, dare to deceive me and others!" ”
It didn't take long for the lieutenant general of the city to come to the city wall with a group of men. When he saw the Yong'an guard, he hurriedly asked, "Where are the men and horses coming to attack the city?" ”
The Yongan guard replied: "The other party claims to be the Bingzhou army, but because it is too late, and the other party is hidden in the woods and cannot see the flag, it is impossible to judge. ”
The adjutant general was shocked and said, "In addition to the state army, how can there be other armies that can come to the city?" ”
"Could it be that they can really get through, that section of the river with a strong current?"
General Yong'an nodded solemnly and said, "If it is not expected, the state army must have come from there." ”
The adjutant general hurriedly said: "Even if the thief army can cross the river from this place, the number of people will definitely not be too many. Why don't you give me a thousand men and horses, and when I go out of the city, I will kill the enemy first, and then burn their ships. ”
"Otherwise, if they keep transporting people and horses, the consequences will be unimaginable."
The Yongan guard thought for a while, shook his head and said: "It's getting late, the enemy situation is unknown, if you rush to send troops, you are afraid of being ambushed." After dawn tomorrow, we will send scouts to investigate, and if there are not many enemy troops, it will not be too late to go out of the city and fight. ”
The adjutant general thought for a while, felt that it was very reasonable, and stopped talking about the battle in the city.
That night, the sound of war drums outside the city never stopped. The nerves of the Yongan defenders have always been tense, and they dare not slack off.
After dawn, the sound of war drums outside the city suddenly stopped, and the Yongan guard sent people to reconnoiter the enemy's situation.
It was not long before the scout came back and reported: "General, according to the traces in the woods, the enemy is probably less than a thousand men. ”
The deputy general was overjoyed when he heard this, so he asked the Yongan guard general to fight: "The vanguard of the thief army must be a naval army, how can it be the opponent of my Xiliang elite?" I also ask the general and me with a thousand soldiers and horses, and wipe out all the naval forces on this road while the other party has not yet transported the army. ”
Frowning, the Yongan guard said: "Just through the traces in that wood, you can't see the real strength of the other party. ”
"Besides, there are only two thousand defenders in the city, if you take one thousand away, if you are not careful, Yong'an will be lost."
"In my opinion, scouts should be sent to scout the enemy's detailed information; On the one hand, it was a foolproof strategy to quickly send people to ask for help from Puzi Shou. ”
The adjutant general's request for battle was rejected, and he was immediately annoyed in his heart, and secretly scolded: "If you shrink your head and tail like this, you will delay the fighter plane, and you will regret it too late when the enemy's army comes." ”
Of course, most of the defenders in Yong'an City were that person's cronies, and although the deputy general was dissatisfied, he didn't dare to contradict the Yong'an defender.
Ignoring the adjutant general's thoughts, the Yongan guard was a little heavy-hearted. Now that the state is strong and strong, if it insists on attacking, Yong'an City, which is already short of food, will definitely not be able to support it.
He glanced at the soldiers behind him, and his heart was a little gloomy: "I was originally a general under the command of the Taishi, and if the Taishi was killed, I should go underground with him." However, I can't let go of these sons in my heart, so I have been living in the world. ”
"After so many years, not only have I not let them live a good life, but I have borne a lot of infamy."
Thinking of this, the Yongan guard felt a little gloomy in his heart.
There was a famine in Guanzhong, Yong'an was short of food, and in order to prevent his soldiers from starving to death, he almost plundered the people in the city. Many people refused to hand over their food, but were brutally killed.
Such an act deserves to be called madness.
However, in the troubled times, human life is like a mustard, and if you want to survive, you can only trample on the lives of others.
"General, general, and state troops are coming to attack the city!"
The Yong'an guard, who was thinking about things, was shocked when he heard the news of the scout's report.
"How many thieves are there?"
The scout replied, "Look at its banner, there are only eight hundred men!" ”
All the people on the city wall were stunned when they heard this. They didn't expect that less than a thousand Bingzhou troops would dare to attack the city.
"Are you sure?"
The Yongan Keeper had deep doubts on his face.
"Sure!"
The scout replied categorically.
"We reconnoitred all the way to the upper reaches of Fenshui and found that there were more than 20 small warships there, and there were 200 men and horses left on them. The commander of the state army with 800 people has already killed Yong'an County. ”
The adjutant general hurriedly asked, "These 800 men and horses, but cavalry?" ”
The scout replied, "There is not a single horse except the general. ”
The lieutenant general was immediately furious: "The thief will despise us so much, it is simply too deceitful!" The general also asked me to give me a thousand men and horses, and a certain man will definitely capture this subordinate alive and sacrifice it to the general's command. ”
When the Yong'an guard heard the scout's report, he thought in his heart: "If this is the case, the general who led the troops in Bingzhou this time is definitely a reckless man." In that case, it's much easier to deal with. ”
Although he had some thoughts in his heart, his face was silent, he glanced at the deputy general, and said lightly: "If the thieves really dare to attack the city, I will definitely send you down to meet the battle." ”
Until this time, the Yongan guard still had doubts, afraid that the state army would be deceitful.
As the commander of the first army, he shoulders the safety of Yong'an County, and he must not cause Yong'an City to suffer losses because of negligence.
When the adjutant general heard this, he turned his anger into joy.
It didn't take long for the dust outside the city to really be dusty, and 800 people rushed to Yong'an County with murderous spirit.
Gan Ning took the lead, picked up the big knife, pointed at the people in the city, and said arrogantly: "The rebels of the chaotic country, the heavenly soldiers are here, why don't you descend early?" ”
When the people in Yong'an City heard this, they were immediately furious, and the deputy general immediately asked for orders: "The last general asks for battle, and the general is also asked to agree!" ”
The Yongan guard squinted his eyes and saw that the Bingzhou army was really only eight hundred, and the formation was crooked, and his heart was a little calm.
He said to the lieutenant general: "The thief army has only 800 foot soldiers, and it is a rabble. I'll give you a hundred cavalry and four hundred foot soldiers, do you dare to fight? ”
The adjutant general hurriedly said: "Why don't you dare? ”
"Knock knock!"
The drums of war sounded, and the gates opened.
The adjutant general held a spear, rushed out of the city first, and scolded Gan Ning loudly: "The thief will be famous, and a certain gun will not kill the nameless!" ”
Gan Ning was furious and scolded loudly: "The one who killed you is Nai Weng!" ”
The two generals slapped their horses to kill each other, and after more than 20 rounds of fighting, Gan Ning was not strong, and he made a false move, and fled.
As he ran, he said, "Naiong didn't have enough to eat today, so he will fight again in the future." ”
Where is Vice Admiral Yong'an? beckoned everyone behind him to take advantage of the situation to cover up and kill, and the state army was defeated and fled in a hurry.
