Chapter 697: Wen Zhao enters Shu
Outside Jiangzhou City, the Yizhou soldiers looked at the city wall, and the hanging head of Liu Bi was all shocked, and many soldiers who had deep feelings for Liu Bi even cried loudly.
Seeing this, Vice General Yizhou's face also changed greatly, and a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes.
"Woooooo
The wind whined, and the flags hunted, some like weeping.
Yan Pu stood on the city wall in military uniform, holding a sharp sword and pointing at the Yizhou soldiers under the city, and shouted: "Liu Bi has been awarded the head, when will you wait if you don't surrender at this time?" ”
The soldiers on the city wall also shouted loudly: "If you don't surrender at this time, when will you wait!" ”
The soldiers in the city were originally elite divisions, and after beheading Liu Bi, their morale was greatly boosted, all of them were full of energy, and their shouts shook the sky.
Although there were many soldiers in the Yizhou army, they were indignant at Liu Bi's death, and they hated to enter the city to avenge their own commander.
However, for the vast majority of the Yizhou army, they don't have too deep feelings for Liu Bi, and now that the main general Zhongji has been killed, as ordinary soldiers, they are naturally demoralized, and their hearts are full of fear.
Although the deputy general of Yizhou gritted his teeth and looked at Yan Pu on the city wall, he also knew how bad the death of the main general would have on his subordinates, so he gritted his teeth and ordered the withdrawal of troops.
Yan Pu watched the Yizhou army retreat in a hurry outside the city, his eyes narrowed slightly, and then shouted loudly: "Put the suspension bridge, open the city gate, and kill it!" ”
Sergeant Guan was already a little eager to try, and after hearing Yan Pu's words, they waved their weapons in their hands and cheered.
There are two flowers, one on each branch.
However, it was said that Zhang Ren had Jiang Wu's head cut off and pickled it in quicklime, and then led the army to the Sword Pavilion in the starry night.
After the Yizhou army arrived at the Sword Pavilion, Deng Xian hurriedly opened the city gate to welcome Zhang Ren into the city.
Zhang Ren didn't have a polite relationship with Deng Xian at all, so he asked bluntly: "How is the battle situation in Guanghan County?" Why were Yang Huai and Gao Pei defeated? ”
Deng Xian smiled bitterly a few times and said something slowly, so that Zhang Ren understood the cause and effect of the matter.
It turned out that after the Guanzhong army captured Zitong, Gan Ning led the naval army to garrison the city, but Xu Huang and Tian Feng led 3,000 foot soldiers to kill the Sword Pavilion in the starry night.
However, due to Zhang Ren's precautionary efforts and sending Deng Xian to lead 3,000 troops to garrison the Sword Pavilion in advance, Xu Huang's attack battle undoubtedly failed.
If Tian Feng hadn't discovered the problem in advance, I'm afraid that the Guanzhong army would have been ambushed by Deng Xian and returned defeated.
When Tian Feng and Xu Huang saw the tall and precipitous city wall of the Sword Pavilion, as well as the banners and well-armored soldiers on the city wall, they led the troops to withdraw to Zitong without the slightest hesitation.
Because they knew that with only 3,000 soldiers and horses in their hands, it was impossible to break through the Dangerous Sword Pavilion again.
If the defender in the city is a mediocre talent, Xu Huang can also make a fortune, attract the Yizhou army out of the city and then take advantage of the situation to seize the city.
However, Deng Xian is a famous general in Bashu, and he is known for his calmness, so Tian Feng thinks that it is impossible to capture the Sword Pavilion.
However, it was said that Guanghan County was too guarded, and after hearing that Xu Huang and Gan Ning's divine soldiers had descended from heaven, he hurriedly sent someone to inform Liu Zhang and asked to send reinforcements.
Liu Zhang was also shocked when he heard this, and convened his subordinates to discuss the strategy of retreating from the enemy, and finally Yang Huai and Gao Pei were appointed as the leading generals of the 30,000-strong army to go to crusade against Xu Huang and others.
However, it was said that Tian Feng and others, although they occupied Zitong, the heart of Guanghan County, and seized a lot of grain and grass, but after all, they were alone and would not be able to last.
Xu Huang, who was known for his calmness, suggested at that time that he should lead the army to withdraw from Guanghan County before the Yizhou army did not encircle the city, and return to Ba County along the Zitong River, and wait for the arrival of the Guanzhong army.
More importantly, Xu Huang was still a little faintly worried about the battle situation in Ba County, and he suddenly felt that he was pinning his hopes on Liu Bi, which was a little too rash.
On the other hand, even though Tian Feng was full of wisdom, he was also a little overwhelmed after the failure of the surprise attack on the Sword Pavilion.
Although the role of strategists is huge, once the strategy fails, they are far inferior to those generals in the battle and leading the army to fight.
For example, in history, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Chan clashed twenty miles south of Jieqiao Jieqiao, and Ju Yi led the lead to break the white horse Yicong, and led the troops to chase and kill Gongsun Chan to his camp.
Yuan Shao ordered his troops to pursue the enemy, but he advanced slowly, carrying only dozens of strong crossbows and more than 100 halberd guards.
More than ten miles away from the boundary bridge, Yuan Shao heard that the front had won, so he dismounted and unsaddled and rested for a while.
At this time, more than 2,000 cavalry from Gongsun Zhan's army suddenly appeared, surrounded Yuan Shao heavily, arrows rained down, and Yuan Shao's situation was suddenly in danger.
Tian Feng panicked at that time and pulled Yuan Shao to ask him to retreat into a low wall to avoid the edge for the time being.
Yuan Shao saw the situation clearly, and knew that withdrawing behind the wall would only greatly reduce the morale of the soldiers, and might not be able to save their lives.
He slammed his helmet to the ground and shouted, "How can a great man hide behind a wall when he should rush forward and die?" What's more, can you survive by escaping! ”
The soldiers beside him saw that their lords were so fearless of death, and their morale was greatly boosted.
Yuan Shao commanded strong crossbowmen to fight again, killing and wounding many of Gongsun Zhan's cavalry, and Gongsun Zhan's troops did not recognize Yuan Shao and did not want to waste their troops to gnaw on this hard bone, and finally gradually retreated.
It didn't take long for Lu Yi to lead troops to meet Yuan Shao, and Gongsun Zhan's cavalry completely withdrew.
It can be said that in that short confrontation, Yuan Shao had almost reached the point of life and death. If Tian Feng had listened to his words at that time, Yuan Shao would probably have died there.
It can be seen that although a strategist can defeat the enemy army with a single strategy, few pure strategists can lead the army into battle.
People like Zhuge Liang, Zhou Yu, Fu Zhu, and Cheng Yu who can write and martial arts are actually not pure strategists, and they should be called Confucian generals.
At this time, Tian Feng had already lost some of his bearings, and when he heard that Xu Huang wanted to lead his troops to retreat to Dianjiang, he immediately fell into deep thought.
However, Xu Huang's suggestion was opposed by Gan Ning, and he finally led the navy to fight once, and he was never allowed to return in vain.
Just before they could discuss the result, Yang Huai and Gao Pei had already led their troops to kill them and surrounded Zitong City.
Xu Huang and Gan Ning, at the beginning, also wanted to rely on their own bravery, leading the troops out of the city to fight with the Yizhou army, so that they could kill their commanders and frustrate the spirit of the Yizhou army.
However, Yang Huai and Gao Pei were not reckless, as long as the Guanzhong army went out of the city to fight, they led their subordinates to cover up and kill.
Although the Guanzhong army was brave and good at fighting, it could only retreat into the city when it occupied an absolute disadvantage in strength.
In desperation, Xu Huang and Gan Ning had to defend the city and never dared to go out of the city to fight again.
Yang Huai and Gao Pei surrounded Zitong for a period of time, no matter how they attacked the city, there was no progress, and they were constantly harassed by the soldiers and soldiers of Guan every night, so that the Yizhou army had no way to rest.
Yang Huai guessed that this was the strategy of the Guanzhong army, so he ordered the army to retreat ten miles, and then the two divided the soldiers and horses into several teams and took turns to guard against the possible robbery of the camp by the Guanzhong army.
But he said that one night the moon was dark and the wind was high.
When the Yizhou soldiers were accustomed to the sound of war drums outside the camp, Xu Huang suddenly led the troops into the camp and caught the Yizhou army off guard.
Fortunately, Yang Huai and Gao Pei are not vain people, since they have precautions, after being attacked by surprise, they quickly organized soldiers and horses to fight Xu Huang.
The two sides fought for half a night, Xu Huang's troops were few and retreated, and the Yizhou army was also exhausted after extinguishing the fire in the camp. Many Yizhou soldiers even returned to the camp and fell asleep.
Not only were the Yizhou soldiers tired, but Yang Huai and Gao Pei also felt drowsy, and they felt that since Xu Huang had failed to rob the camp, he should not come over again tonight, so they relaxed their vigilance.
But he didn't want to, when everyone was sleepy in the early morning, Gan Ning led a group of men and horses to suddenly kill into the camp and set fire everywhere.
This time, the Yizhou army was completely defenseless, and Gan Ning led the brave and unusually brave Guanzhong army to look at each other and be invincible.
The fire in the camp was raging, and many Yizhou soldiers even killed each other, but many more people were scurrying around like headless flies, and there was no way to organize effective resistance.
In the panic, Gao Pei was slashed by Gan Ning, if it weren't for Yang Huai's desperate rescue, I'm afraid Gao Pei would have died in battle.
This time the camp was robbed, the Yizhou army was defeated, and finally Yang Huai and Gao Pei had to lead the remnants of the defeated army to abandon the village and flee, but they were intercepted and killed by Xu Huang and the ambush soldiers for a while, and the casualties were heavy.
Knowing the cause and effect of the incident, Zhang Ren frowned, but remained silent for a long time.
He asked himself if he encountered this situation, would he end up like Yang Huai and Gao Pei.
After thinking about it, Zhang Ren was suddenly shocked, secretly thinking that even if the commander of the army was himself, he was very likely to be tricked.
Turning his attention to Deng Xian, Zhang Ren asked: "First paralyze the two generals Yang Huai and Gao Pei with a tired strategy, and then send troops to rob the camp twice, and set up ambushes, this kind of plan is linked one by one, but Tian Yuanhao's strategy?" ”
Deng Xian smiled bitterly twice and said: "Afterwards, the two generals Yang Huai and Gao Pei sent people to inquire in many ways, and only then did they know that it was indeed Tian Yuanhao's plan. ”
Zhang Ren was silent at first, and then sighed: "Tian Yuanhao is famous all over the world, and he is really not a wasted person." ”
Deng Xian asked: "How is the general going to break the enemy when he leads his troops back this time?" ”
Zhang Rendao: "Tian Yuanhao is the best in the world, Gan Xingba and Xu Gongming are brave and good at fighting, they are famous generals in the world, and they are very difficult to deal with." ”
"With these three people there, if you want to break through Zitong with a strange plan, it is absolutely impossible. Only by letting the lord send a large army to storm the city day and night can he have a chance of winning! ”
Deng Xian hesitated for a moment and said: "Zitong City is tall, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it may not be easy to storm the city. Even if we can finally break through Zitong, our army will also suffer heavy casualties. Doing so doesn't outweigh the losses. ”
Zhang Ren shook his head and said: "General Deng's words are wrong, Chen Wenzhao will lead the army to Ba County in a few days, if you don't end the war in Guanghan County as soon as possible, how can you open up the grain road to Shu County and resist the Guanzhong army wholeheartedly?" ”
"Moreover, Tian Yuanhao, Xu Gongming, and Gan Xingba are all important figures in Guanzhong, if they are captured alive, it can be imagined how big a blow to the morale of the Guanzhong army will be."
"Even, the lord can also blackmail Chen Wenzhao with the lives of these three people, so that he can lead his troops to withdraw from Yizhou. In this way, the danger of Yizhou will be solved naturally. ”
Speaking of this, Zhang Ren's eyes flashed, and he said with some excitement: "So, as long as you can break through Zitong and capture Tian Feng and the three of you, no matter how much it costs, it's worth it!" ”
Hearing Zhang Ren's explanation, Deng Xian couldn't help but nod slowly.
……
In the water of Zitong, a fleet of ships went down the river, and one of the generals standing on the front boat was Xu Huang.
A naval army general reluctantly looked back into the distance, and couldn't help but say to Xu Huang: "There are few troops in Zitong City, why does the general want to bring us back to Shu County?" ”
The Navy General has been following Gan Ning for a long time, and he has always been eager to make contributions. More importantly, he was worried about the safety of Gan Ning and Tian Feng in Zitong City.
Xu Huang quietly looked at the flowing water in the river, and said to the naval general: "Staying in Zitong is the choice of the military advisor and Xingba, but I can't rest assured about Bajun no matter what." ”
Speaking of this, Xu Huang's face was full of worry.
For some reason, the closer he got to the territory of Ba County, the more Xu Huang felt restless in his heart, and he had a faint feeling of being very bad.
He ignored the dissatisfaction on the face of the general of the navy and asked, "How far is this place from the Dianjiang River?" ”
Although the general of the navy was dissatisfied, he still replied without hesitation: "After half a day's journey, you can reach Dianjiang!" ”
Xu Huang closed his eyes slightly, with a thoughtful look on his face.
……
In the fall, the crops are harvested and the grain is planted on the ground.
A large group of people suddenly appeared in Ba County, and the banner of the word 'Chen' in front of him was fluttering in the wind, and the first general was Chen Wenzhao, who was dressed in black armor.
Wen Zhao rode on his war horse and said to a big man beside him: "Ah Hu, how long has it been since we two brothers fought side by side?" ”
The big Han is Chen Hu, the younger brother of the Wen Zhao clan, and after he was transferred back to Pusaka, he followed Wen Zhao on the expedition this time.
After so many years, the reckless Chen Hu in the past has now become much calmer. The years have not left too many marks on his face, but the thick beard on his chin can be seen that Chen Hu is slowly getting older.
Chen Hu showed a look of remembrance and said, "Since the eldest brother occupied the state, the two of us have not fought side by side together. ”
"After my brother captured Guanzhong, I spent most of my time stationed in Yanmen County, and I didn't say that I would kill the enemy side by side with my eldest brother, and I hadn't met a few times over the years."
Wen Zhao also showed a look of remembrance on his face, and said: "Yes, now that Ah Jing has also been sent to Liangzhou to garrison one side, I don't know what year and month will it take for the three of us brothers to gather together again." ”
Chen Hu's deputy general Li Dayin on the side laughed twice and said: "After the lord unifies the world, you can stay with the two generals every day!" ”
Li Dayin was the former bandit leader, although Wen Zhao despised him before, but after learning about this person's deeds, his senses also changed greatly.
Especially when he was fighting with the Xianbei people, Li Dayin crossed the river with a rope and made great achievements, and he has been arranged to become Chen Hu's deputy general, and he has also won Chen Hu's trust over the years.
Hearing Li Dayin's words, Wen Zhao only smiled slightly, but did not answer. It's just that there is an expectant look on his face.
