Chapter 760: Zhang Ren Xiangyang
Zhang Xiang has never occupied Jingzhou, but he knows Jingzhou very well, because many things Zhang Xiang has experienced have revolved around Jingzhou, and Xiangyang City has always been the top priority. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Therefore, Zhang Xiang wanted to destroy Xiangyang City at all costs, which would be beneficial to Zhang Xiang and Jiangdong.
Cooperation is mutually beneficial, so that the two sides can continue to cooperate, as for the grain and grass, Zhang Xiang doesn't care so much, Xiangyang City is much more important than the grain and grass in that area.
Zhang Xiang has never understood why there is a fortified city like Xiangyang in the south, it is useless at all.
The south is not comparable to the north, the foreign enemy Hu people are in front, and they will go south at any time, and only with a strong city can they make up for the gap in the cavalry, and the foreign tribes in the south are useless those barbarian Shanyue.
These foreigners did not have cavalry, and they were far worse in foot combat.
Zhang Xiang's people in Jingzhou have begun to accept the alliance with Zhou Yu, and Zhou Yu quickly agreed, Zhou Yu will not let go of this kind of thing, and Jiangdong alone cannot take Xiangyang City, which is guarded by Cao Ren.
What's more, the reinforcements of Great Wei will also arrive within a few days, and Zhou Yu can't think of any possibility of refusal.
However, Zhou Tai was very reluctant, "Metropolitan Governor, do you really want to cooperate with Daming?" ”
"Youping, what's wrong? What do you think? ”
"It's natural to have a high opinion in front of the Grand Governor, but Zhang Xiang can't be trusted." Zhou Yu didn't know why Zhou Tai had such a prejudice against Zhang Xiang, but he couldn't change his decision.
Because Zhou Yu can't help but cooperate now, the grain and grass in the army are being supplied by Zhang Xiang's people, and the grain and grass in Jiangdong have not yet been transported.
Or it was deliberately not transported, in order to save some grain and grass, there was no way that Jiangdong's family business was small, so it could naturally be saved.
Zhou Yu was also afraid that Zhou Tai would drill the horns, "Zhang Xiang is not credible, everyone in the world knows about it, this cooperation is also temporary, everyone just takes what they need, you don't have to worry about it." ”
Zhou Tai is the only person Zhou Yu has to worry about in the Jiangdong Army, Zhou Tai's loyalty and courage make the whole army respect, as long as Zhou Tai goes to the battlefield, the morale of the whole army will be improved, which is incomparable to other generals.
Zhang Ren also received an order to capture Xiangyang at all costs.
Capturing a fortified city is probably a dream of all military generals, Zhang Ren naturally tried his best, and the pressure of the Yizhou soldiers on the battlefield in Jingzhou was much smaller than that of Jiangdong.
After all, what Zhang Ren did in the past was just to arrest people.
This kind of thing can be done well without a good general like Zhang Ren, and he did not capture the city, and all the soldiers of the Great Wei did not resist Zhang Ren so much.
Zhang Ren went against the norm this time and marched frantically, which caught the soldiers of Great Wei off guard, and Cao Ren was a little clumsy in dealing with Jiangdong, let alone against a Zhang Ren.
Everyone who underestimates Zhang Ren will suffer a big loss in the end.
The most important reason why Zhang Ren's reputation is not obvious is that he has never experienced a major war, but Zhang Ren has done a lot of practical things, and he is the first general of Yizhou who is not in name.
Yizhou is already very important to Zhang Xiang, and nearly thirty percent of the food supplies in the army come from Yizhou.
Zhang Xiang once tried to let Lu Pi replace Zhang Ren, but the final effect was not very good, first, he was unfamiliar with the place, and there were many foreigners in Yizhou, so he didn't listen to Lu Pi at all.
Second, Lu Pi is a general, but he is not a talent in governance, and he does not have the ability to command the military affairs of a state.
At least the generals who can be a state are handsome, but when they enter Yizhou, which has the name of natural danger, it is really overkill, Zhang Ren is naturally not handsome, but Zhang Ren has been in Yizhou for many years.
As the so-called light car is familiar with the road, the people of Yizhou are most familiar with Zhang Renyou.
Although Zhang Ren didn't do anything big in Yizhou, he didn't have any merit and work! What's more, after working for so many years, Zhang Xiang chose to come and go, and in the end he could only choose Zhang Ren, he was indeed the most suitable.
Zhang Ren sent troops from Yizhou this time, and he also had the intention of proving himself and proving that he was no worse than anyone else.
Tong Yuan can be said to be a master of three masters, but his apprentices' luck is not very good, Zhang Xiu has disappeared without news, maybe where he died? And although Zhao Yun is stationed in the north, he is only a partial general, he does not bow to Zhang Xiang for a day, and there is no day for a day, but with Zhao Yun's temperament, he is destined not to bow his head, Zhang Xiang is not to think about it in this life.
There is only one Zhang Ren left, he is the first to join the army, and he is also the highest rank among the senior brothers, but he is the most useless, such a gap Zhang Ren is naturally unacceptable, but he has not said it.
Zhang Ren has never been a person who walks the right path, he is a disciple of the spear prodigy Yuan, but he uses a knife.
This attack on Xiangyang Zhang Ren decided to take the right path, a dignified attack on Xiangyang, Yizhou soldiers are very good at attacking fortifications, Yizhou's soldiers have grown up in the mountains since childhood, the climbing ability is extremely strong, climbing the ladder is like playing, that can be faster than running on the road.
Zhang Ren's side was the first to attack Xiangyang, before Zhou Yu made a move.
In fact, Zhou Yu and Zhang Ren arrived at Xiangyang City at the same time, but Zhou Yu has not made any moves, Zhang Xiang asked Zhang Ren to act cheaply, Zhang Ren has also been in the army for many years, so he naturally understands Zhou Yu's careful thinking.
Zhang Ren also knew Zhou Yu's situation, so Zhang Ren took a step back and made a feint attack on Xiangyang first, just to see Zhou Yu's reaction.
Zhou Yu did not hesitate and sent troops directly, Zhang Ren turned the feint attack into a strong attack, Cao Ren has seen a lot of elite soldiers in the south and north over the years, but Cao Ren, a soldier in Yizhou, is still the first time to see it.
The first siege of the city shocked Cao Ren, this is inevitably climbing too fast, Cao Ren is also good at training, especially infantry, Cao Ren compared his own trained soldiers with Yizhou soldiers and found that the climbing speed of these Yizhou soldiers is comparable to the elite of his subordinates.
But as soon as he fought, Cao Ren was a little relieved, it turned out that he was climbing fast, his strength was not strong, and the height of the Yizhou soldiers was indeed a little shorter.
It is true that it is not visible from the ladder, but as soon as you jump up to the top of the castle, the difference becomes apparent.
Zhang Ren can be said to be one-eyed in attacking the city, which is the same as Cao Ren, but Cao Ren is exactly what he is most afraid of such an opponent, and a glance of the board means that there is no chance to take advantage of it.
Sometimes being ordinary on the battlefield does not mean weakness, but rather a kind of trouble, and you don't know the depth of the other party at all.
Zhang Ren's side didn't plan to stop at all, and Jiangdong, as an ally, naturally couldn't stop, but Zhou Yu played a cautious trick on his side, and turned the strong attack into a feint attack at night, and Jiangdong didn't have such a dead soldier.
