Chapter 985: Huang Zhong makes a move (ask for subscription)
I heard that the real contact is two different things, that is, the soldiers selected by Zhang Xiu at the beginning, at this time also have a strong sense of belonging to the Bingzhou Army, which is the trust in the Bingzhou Army system, and the military salary paid to the hand every month is proof.
"General Huang, if the grain and grass of the princes' army go to Huguan, Huaixian is not the only way to go." Seeing that Huang Zhong had been hiding near Huaixian for two days in a row, Zhang Xiu was a little puzzled, the dry food carried by the cavalry this time was only enough for ten days, which means that if he did not capture it within ten days, he would probably go hungry.
Shooting at ordinary people, Zhang Xiu believes that the state army will not do it.
Huang Zhong smiled: "General Zhang will wait and see." ”
"I also ask General Huang to solve his doubts for his humble position." Zhang Xiu asked again.
"General Zhang, when the enemy army transports grain and grass, it is bound to strive to be faster, and the most convenient way to enter Huguan is the cement road that the lord ordered to build in Hanoi, compared to ordinary roads, on the cement road, the distance in one day is enough to be three times as far as the ordinary, if you are an enemy army, how will you choose?" Huang Zhongdao.
Zhang Xiu's eyes lit up, revealing a sudden look, "I neglected my humble duties before." ”
Huang Zhong glanced at Zhang Xiu approvingly, it is impossible for a general to know too much when he first goes into battle, and the most important thing is how much he can learn on the battlefield.
"The most important thing is that the Bingzhou Army has a lot of friends in Hanoi." Huang Zhong smiled secretly.
"Friends?" Zhang Xiu asked again.
"At the beginning, the lord exercised benevolent government in Hanoi, and the people were attached, but after the army of the princes entered Hanoi, they took everything in the hands of the people, and although they made good friends with the family, they lost the hearts of the people." Huang Zhong explained.
Zhang Xiu nodded, although the people's will is invisible, but the power of the people's will cannot be ignored, why Dong Zhuo failed in the first place is because he lost the support of the people's heart to a certain extent.
The strategy of Bingzhou to treat the people is unimaginable to any prince, and the princes do not have the courage to treat the family like this, following Zhang Ji for many years, Zhang Xiu has long been a fledgling, and considering things has become more comprehensive.
Zhang Xiu can foresee that when the princes enter Hanoi and destroy everything that originally belonged to the people, the people will definitely miss the departed Bingzhou army, the family's means Zhang Xiu is very clear, these people can do whatever it takes for the benefit of the family, not to mention that the princes of the Central Plains have a tacit attitude towards the family's behavior, so it is normal for the people to stand on the side of the Bingzhou army.
"General, there is an escort team that has entered Huai County." When a cavalryman was more than ten steps away from Huang Zhongshang, he turned over and dismounted, stepped forward quickly, and whispered.
Huang Zhong's eyes lit up: "Can you see how many people are on the other side?" Whose soldiers and horses are the princes? Who is the leader? ”
The scout breathed a sigh of relief and said: "General, there are about 3,000 soldiers in the baggage team that entered Huai County, and the grain and grass escorted are enough 100,000 stones. ”
Zhang Xiu looked at the two of them who asked and answered, the scouts were able to get so much news on the battlefield, it was definitely a very powerful existence, you must know that even if it was a team escorting heavy baggage, there would be scouts, and it was extremely difficult to detect useful information without alarming the opponent's army.
At this time, it is in Hanoi, once the enemy detects it, it is difficult to destroy the other party on the battlefield, after all, the princes' army has more than 100,000 people, and the rear is the place they are most concerned about, once they know that there is an enemy cavalry in the rear, they will definitely send most of the soldiers and horses to come, although a thousand Sun archers are very powerful, when the number of the enemy army reaches a certain level, the effect will not be too great.
"Go and probe again, and don't alarm the enemy." Huang Zhongdao.
Jingzhou's baggage team, escorted grain and grass enough to have 100,000 stones, it is definitely worth Huang Zhong's shot, although the Jingzhou army is not in Huguan, but it affects the safety of Chang'an, this time the Jingzhou army went to war, the amount of grain and grass carried by the army will not be too much, as long as the baggage team in Jingzhou can be cut off once, maybe the Jingzhou army will have to tighten its belt in the next few days, once the lack of grain and grass, the impact on the army is huge.
At this moment, a person who was about the same color as the surrounding bushes walked towards Huang Zhong, and the surrounding cavalry suddenly showed a look of vigilance.
After Huang Zhong waved his hand, the Burning Sun Archers retreated.
After speaking in his ear, Huang Zhong nodded slightly and said, "General Ben already knows." ”
Zhang Xiu looked at the scene in front of him suspiciously, how did this strangely dressed person approach, he didn't even notice it for a while, judging from Huang Zhong's expression, the identity of the person who came must be extraordinary in the Bingzhou army.
"The general who escorted the grain and grass in Jingzhou is Cai Mao's brother Cai Zhong." Huang Zhong said: "Although Cai Zhong is Cai Mao's brother, he does not have Cai Mao's skills. "Huang Zhong has been in Jingzhou for a long time, and he still knows some of the generals in Jingzhou, and the most powerful people in Jingzhou's naval army are Cai Mao and Zhang Yun.
"I wish the general a victory." Zhang Xiu said with a smile.
"It must be victorious, if the Lieyang Archers can't even defeat figures like Cai Zhong, what kind of face does General Ben have to return to the army and return to the Marquis of Jin." Huang Zhong's face showed confidence.
Zhang Xiu's heart moved, and the self-confidence of the generals of the state army was exactly what the generals of the other princes lacked.
Cai Zhong is the guard general in Xiangyang City, relying on Cai Mao's identity, he is also very comfortable in Jingzhou, this time the matter of escorting grain and grass can fall on him, and he is also striving for, although the days in Jingzhou are very comfortable, so that Cai Zhong has a feeling of boredom, coinciding with the army escorting grain and grass to Hanoi, Cai Zhong took the initiative to ask for help.
At this time, although Hanoi is in turmoil, there are more than 200,000 princes allied forces, which seems to be far away, but in fact there is no danger, after all, the princes and Jingzhou are in a united state, and they will not shoot each other. It's a good candidate.
After entering Huaixian, Cai Zhong curiously observed everything in the city, especially the straight and smooth cement road in the city, which attracted Cai Zhong's attention, and the houses on both sides of the road also gave people a sense of neatness.
