Chapter 44 The Crusade against Jizhou

The people of Youzhou have not seen a large number of soldiers and horses crossing the border for a long time, especially the army under the command of Yanbei that does not belong to Youzhou. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

More than half of the people in Youzhou have never seen Yanbei's soldiers and horses, but without exception, from the seven-foot prime to the three-foot boys, they have heard of the name of General Yan.

In the words of those Jizhou refugees, they heard people describe this Yan army, which was composed of a chaotic army but attacked the city and broke the army, and attacked at night.

When the black flag of the swallow character crossed the border, and the beard was braided into hemp rope, and the black Huan cavalry with a bald head like a scoop surrounded by 6,000 brave and fierce Han army swept across the county border and went straight to Guangyang, people were terrified of the strength displayed by this army of soldiers and horses.

The common people couldn't help but sincerely wish that the prince Liu would live a long life.

Because Liu Bo'an is sitting in Youzhou, this army has now become the soldiers and horses under the command of Captain Wuhuan of the Great Han Dynasty. If the current Yanbei is in turmoil, I am afraid that it will be stronger than the damage caused by Erzhang...... Because this is a soldier without armor.

From beginning to end, one could not see a piece of cloth armor.

Those Wuhuan riders from subject countries were not mentioned, and if the humble bronze pieces were armor, they might have been heavily armed soldiers and horses; If not, these barbarians are no different from shirtless men on horseback.

But the soldiers carrying the banner of the swallow character were different from any army they had ever seen, and more than half of the more than 6,000 men were wearing iron armor, and even if they did not have iron armor, they would wear double leather armor, wolf skin, cow skin, bear skin, and even the most expensive rhino skin, and the most expensive rhino skin, they had everything.

Only the elbows that could not be covered by the armor could be seen on the muscles of their arms, and these Jizhou people were expressionless, and their faces fluttered as they went.

Yan Zhao Samurai!

Only then did people realize what powerful weapons Yan Bei was holding in his hands.

For this battle, Yanbei pulled out all the most valuable family funds. There are more than 3,000 ring knives and 4,000 spears. 2,000 bows, 1,000 crossbows, 30,000 arrows, and 10,000 arrows. Three hundred chariots, six hundred chariots, seven hundred oxen, a thousand horses, and two thousand horses. 2,000 collars of great armor, thousands of leather armors, and 1,000 scarves and shields!

This is the reason why he asked Liu Yu to ask the Xianyu brothers to send soldiers to attack. The people in the state capital thought that Yanbei had insufficient troops and needed help, but in fact, Yanbei had no intention of sending county soldiers to the battlefield at all. He pulled the Xian Yu brothers out, completely so that Xian Yuyin could lead the army to protect the grain road, and Xian Yufu settled in as a grain hoarding camp after he captured the first city controlled by the Black Mountain Army in Jizhou.

The meaning of Xianyu brothers is to deal with all the worries for Yanbei, and as for the journey to die, it is a problem that Yanbei needs to consider.

There are heavy cattle here, and the march of the soldiers and horses is faster than that of the foot soldiers, but it will reach Guangyang in ten days. However, this time, there was news from the state officials in the morning, asking Yanbei to go to Zhuo County and enter Zhuo County, not Ji County in Guangyang County.

Six thousand soldiers and horses crossed the border, which was too unsafe for the governor.

If Yanbei has a little crooked mind, these fierce men under his command can directly capture the laxly defended Guangyang County, and after the transfer of the county soldiers and Daijun and Zhuojun, Guangyang is almost an undefended city.

No one wants to cause such a misunderstanding.

Approaching the hottest August, Yanbei soldiers went to Fanyang, Zhuo County.

Two years ago, his story began here, and this name hit the ears of people all over the world, and this time, he also has to start from Fanyang County and go all the way south.

People say that the wind is sluggish and the water is cold.

When Yanbei led the army south to cross Yishui into the territory of Jizhou, he only felt that even at night, the weather was still hot and terrible.

Spring and autumn are suitable times for war, this time it is August, Liaodong is still a little cooler, but the turn of the dark and Hebei is the hottest time, those Wuhuan men sweat through the bronze armor down, as for Yanbei's own subordinates are even more sad, leather armor, iron armor and other life-saving things on the battlefield make them sweat at this time, but they dare not take it off.

They have entered the sphere of influence controlled by the Black Mountain Army, and it is no longer safe after leaving the Youzhou boundary stone, even more so at this moment, and fifty miles to the west, there is a city that Yanbei is extremely familiar with.

Puyin City, the northeasternmost part of the Zhongshan border.

When Zhang Chunfang raised the flag of rebellion, Yanbei led his 100 cavalry to rob the city, killed all the officials in the official office, and took away the strong crossbows and armor in the city after Wang Zheng arrived.

At that time, he also ordered Jiang Jin to break open the treasury in the city before Wang Zheng came, take out the property and distribute it to his subordinates, and he had a long time of stealing fun...... At that time, it was the best era for Yanbei, and a little money could satisfy him.

What could satisfy him now?

No, everything he wanted to do was done, and the brothers who were close to him each became the captain of the school, and at the last time, he had to be the county magistrate, and the six hundred stone officials of the imperial court were already ordinary in their eyes, and tens of thousands of stone grain had become something that could be obtained quickly.

He wanted nothing more. Now, there was only one thing left for him to do.

Revenge for Zhen Yan!

……

At night, the soldiers and horses stayed on the official road.

As soon as he rode a flying horse in return, he bowed down in front of Yan Bei and arched his hand: "General, our scouts can't touch it, and they are almost discovered." ”

"Huh?" Yan Bei frowned, the light of the bonfire reflected a pair of flickering eagle eyes, "Is Puyin City well guarded?" ”

This is not good news, Yan Bei thought about it, his army moved lightly, and the generals of Montenegro would set up scouts in the countryside next to the official road, and it was easy to find their traces. It's just that I didn't expect the scout to even be able to touch it, and it seems that the one who wants to sneak attack can't do it.

"No, General, the scouts can touch Puyin City, but they don't go if they can't come back." The team leader who came back to report the news said with a smile: "Twenty miles further west, the thieves have set up two camps on the official road. ”

"Is there such a thing?" Yan Bei tilted his head and looked at Tai Shici, Zhang Jaw, and Lu Yi beside him, and the four of them were all surprised, and asked, "How is the defense of the camp?" ”

Dare to set up camp on both sides of the official road, isn't that just waiting for Yanbei?

"The garrison is not lax, but ......" The scout pondered and meditated, and finally came up with the right words: "The two camps are not small, they can be five or six thousand men and horses, tight on the outside and loose on the inside, there are many open and dark posts, but the camps are very quiet, and they should all sleep at this time." ”

Yan Bei closed his eyes and thought about familiarity, got up with a belt around his waist and said: "Captain Lu escorted the soldiers and horses westward, Ziyi and Junyi will follow me to take a look, you lead the way in front, let Yan take a look, what a hero dares to camp on the official road and wait for Yan." ”

Lu Yi received the order, tied the iron neck armor and asked, "Some time ago, the scout said that what was the name of the thief chief who occupied Zhongshan and the state capital and engaged in military engagement?" ”

Zhang Jaw didn't want to think about it: "Pinghan, call yourself Pinghan...... Zhi Dacai didn't even have a good name, and he thought that this name was inferior to Zhang Gongshang of Zhongshan. ”

Everyone laughed, and the generals under Yanbei criticized Zhang Chun a lot for being called General Mitian in the past, and there was another Pinghan general in front of him, and he couldn't help laughing.

"Okay, wake up the soldiers and go to recuperate, I'm afraid I won't have to rest tonight." Yan Bei pouted disdainfully, kicked his feet in the bonfire, turned over and jumped on horseback, and said, "Yan thinks this name is good...... At least it's better than big eyes and a big voice, right? ”

But isn't it, he has Damu and Lei Gong under his hands, and these people in Montenegro can give themselves some strange titles, isn't it good to honestly call Li Bo Zhang Ji?

In fact, he thought that this black mountain thief Kou Ping was Han, but fortunately he was not called Pingyan, otherwise he would be at a loss for fighting like this.

More than ten miles is an instant distance for the horses, and hundreds of scouts have cleared the road, so even the night road is extremely brisk, and the cool breeze on the horseback at night is even more refreshing.

Three miles away, Yanbei followed the scout into the hillside of the forest, and the scout pointed out the outline in the distance that was hidden in the dark night.

"General, please see, there is a camp there, it is estimated that two or three thousand people are stationed, and the other is on the side of the official road, and the two camps are three miles apart.

Hearing this, Tai Shi Ci nodded and said: "The arrow shoots straight dozens of steps, but if it is thrown on the arrow tower of the camp, the camp on both sides can shoot to the official road...... General, I'm afraid it's not easy to get past here. ”

"Brother Ziyi's words are wrong." Zhang Jaw was younger than the two of them, but at this time, he raised a finger with a confident smile and said, "General, if you look at it." For an hour, his subordinates should be the generals to pull out these two villages! ”

Zhang Jaw said this can not be said to be dissatisfied, Tai Shi Ci has never experienced the battle array, at this time looking at Zhang Jaw speechless, but Zhang Jaw still felt inadequate and said: "If it is a captain of the koji school, one hour may be able to defeat their soldiers and horses outside, but it may not be able to pull out the village for the general...... General, this battle is useless! ”

Yanbei also has such a plan, in fact, in the crusade against Montenegro in Jizhou, Yanbei really thought about letting Zhang Jaw coordinate the strategy. Lu Yi's style is strong and extreme, if he is allowed to fight, he will definitely fight hard with the Montenegrin army, and he will definitely win. But in this way, the casualties brought to the subordinates are too much.

He only has 6,000 men, but he has to fight against more than 100,000 Montenegrin troops, and he can't afford the consumption of a tough battle.

"Tell me what you want?"

Hearing Yan Bei's thoughts, Zhang Jaw put away the excitement on his face and said: "Captain Yi led more than 1,000 foot soldiers from the forest to enclose the right side of the official road, and more than 1,000 crossbowmen with jaws are hidden on the left side of the official road, and the general can lead the cavalry to wait on the official road." The right battalion can frighten the left battalion by placing rockets...... If the jaws of the reinforcements can defeat them, even if the jaws cannot stop the enemy, the general himself can lead the cavalry to defeat the enemy. Defeat its reinforcements first, and attack the right camp together, can the Black Mountain bandits have any way to survive except for the rout? ”

After saying this, Zhang Jaw complimented Yanbei as if he was sure of victory: "The general trained the samurai to fight at night, isn't it for today?" ”

"Ziyi, do you want to lead a team of soldiers and horses?"

Yan Bei looked at Zhang Jaw and nodded lightly, and then said to Tai Shici: "Give you five hundred bows and crossbows and five hundred Wuhuan riders, do you dare to sneak through the official road and kill the remnants of the enemy after the enemy is dispersed?" ”
