Chapter 848: The Bloody Battle in Hanzhong I
Hanzhong, Shangyong City.
Zhao Yun outside the city has been standing still, which makes the atmosphere inside Shangyong City very tense, and the two generals Yang Bai and Cao Ren have tensed their spirits, for fear that Zhao Yun will not know when to be ruthless.
On this day, in a lobby of the county mansion, Yang Bai and Cao Ren began to gather together to discuss strategies.
"General Cao, what is this Zhao Zilong up to in mind?" Yang Bai's spirit was a lot haggard.
The more Zhao Yun stood still, the more uneasy he felt in his heart, and his nerves were tense for half a month, so he naturally couldn't bear it and became mentally deficient.
"A certain family is also a little confused now!"
Cao Ren's spirit is also not very good, and his spirit is also very tense during this time, and he smiled a little bitterly: "It's been more than half a month, he just doesn't move, what is he waiting for?" ”
Zhao Yun is the second fierce general today, if it is according to his understanding of fierce generals like Dian Wei, shouldn't Zhao Yun advocate attacking?
But now the momentum came in a hurry, but it was only for half a month to show off his might, and as a result, he didn't use his sword for a long time.
But he didn't dare to underestimate Zhao Yun in his heart, Zhao Yun's past achievements made him have to be cautious, so the more Zhao Yun didn't move, the more nervous he became.
"Did you say Zhao Yun was planning some conspiracy?" Yang Bai asked.
"What can he do?"
Cao Ren thought for a while and said, "You know Shangyong City better than anyone else, and now that our soldiers and horses are airtight, and he is not a god, where else can he break the situation?" ”
"I can't figure it out either, but Zhao Yun can become the hussar general of Eastern Wu, and he is by no means an idle person, I feel a little uneasy in my heart!"
"So be it!"
Cao Ren pondered for a moment. Said: "We personally went to the city gate to guard the city, staring at the outside of the city, you watch the day, I keep watch the night, and he must not have the slightest opportunity to take advantage of it, and no matter how provoked." If we don't go out of the city to fight, I don't believe that there is anything else he can do! ”
"This is a good idea!" Yang Bai nodded: "As long as you hold this time, as soon as the reinforcements arrive, you don't have to be so nervous!" ”
"Report!" At this time, there was a loud shout outside.
"Come in!"
Cao Ren's eyes moved and he drank lowly.
"Report to the general, General Zhang He has a letter, he has now led 30,000 troops into Xicheng. It only takes two days to straighten out and familiarize himself with the terrain, and he can lead his troops south. ”
The herald handed over an official letter from Zhang He: "Within three days, his vanguard army will arrive in Shangyong, and the general will greet him!" ”
"Good!"
When Cao Ren heard this, his frowning brows were instantly relaxed, and his tense spirit suddenly relaxed, and he was still a little excited: "As long as Zhang He's army arrives, it won't be Zhao Zilong who will come to fight us." Instead, we beat them, and we want to expel them from Hanzhong completely! ”
"Whew. Finally breathed a sigh of relief! ”
Yang Bai exhaled a breath of turbidity, and a smile appeared on his haggard face, and said, "As long as we hold these three days, then we can change the direction between attack and defense!" ”
You must know that he was afraid that Shangyong City would be breached before the reinforcements arrived, and Cao Ren was the general of the Cao family. He is just a general in Hanzhong, and I am afraid that he will be responsible for this black cauldron at that time.
……
Outside the city, the camps on the southeastern plains were somewhat quiet.
In the big tent of the Chinese army, Zhao Yun looked calm, sitting cross-legged in front of the bookcase. Holding a book in his hand, it is not a military book, but a Confucian "Book of Shang".
He watched very attentively, and he had the momentum of a scholar who did not listen to the affairs outside the camp and only read the books of the sages.
Since suffering a certain setback in the Battle of Guishan, Zhao Yun began to reflect on himself, he is now considered to be experienced in a hundred battles, and he does not lack experience on the battlefield, but he has always been unable to completely settle down.
He felt that he practiced martial arts every day, read military books, and while increasing his ability, he made his character more radical, and in the first battle of Guishan, he just wanted to win too much, which led to being frustrated in the beginning of the battle.
So, he began to sink down and read the books of the sages.
Sometimes the experience of leading soldiers is actually the same as the experience of reading, and everything is the same, it just depends on whether you can find the essence of it.
During this time, he continued to read Confucian books, which naturally benefited a lot, and the whole person's temperament seemed to have undergone a change.
Today, he is still a gun, although it is sharper, but it is covered with an inconspicuous but sharp holster.
After a long time, a ray of slanting sun gradually disappeared in the camp, it was already dark, Zhao Yun raised his head, looked at the sky, then stood up, lit a few oil lamps, and continued to read.
"General, Hanzhong Qianhu Lingdu asks to see!"
Suddenly, a young man in a flying fish suit appeared outside the camp tent and saluted respectfully to the camp gate.
"Come in!" Zhao Yun's eyes lit up, and it seemed that the opportunity he was waiting for had come.
"Yes!"
The young man in the flying fish suit opened the door curtain, strode in, and said to Zhao Yun: "Report to the general, the news you want has been found by Jinyiwei, Zhang He's soldiers and horses have been rectified in Xicheng for two days, and the troops will be sent to Shangyong after two days, and the specific time is estimated to be in the afternoon after three days, and they can arrive outside Shangyong Xicheng!" ”
"Three days?"
When Zhao Yun heard this, his eyes bloomed, and the aura in his body suddenly exploded, like a sharp aura spreading throughout the camp: "Are you sure? ”
"Sure!"
The body of the young man in the flying fish suit felt this breath, and trembled slightly, Zhao Yun's momentum was too strong, he couldn't breathe, he could only grit his teeth and answer word by word: "And Yang Bai and Cao Ren of Shangyong City already know this news!" ”
"Very good, you continue to keep the latest news in Xicheng, remember, Xicheng Zhang He has every move, and he can't get out of the sight of Jinyiwei, one report per hour, I want the most accurate battle report!" Zhao Yun said in a deep voice.
"Yes!"
The young man in the flying fish suit nodded, and then quietly left the camp.
Zhao Yun put down the book in his hand, stood up, looked up at the sky, and his eyes became extremely sharp, as if he could tear through the night.
It's time for this battle.
He shouted: "Ling Tong! ”
"In!" The staff officer Ling Tong quickly appeared in the camp tent. Ready to go.
"You immediately beat the drums and gather the generals, the whole army gathers and prepares for battle, and, within half an hour, all the generals and staff officers above the regimental level. Gather in the camp under the command of the Chinese army, and anyone who does not arrive will be killed! ”
Zhao Yun's voice was categorical and irrefutable.
"Yes!"
When Ling Tong heard this, his eyes lit up, is this finally going to war? He was a little excited, nodded heavily, and then walked out of the tent and began to gather people to beat the war drums.
Knock knock knock......
The sound of the war drums came and went. It was very loud, breaking the silence of the night, shaking the entire plain barracks, and all the officers and men of the large battalion heard the sound of drums, immediately sorted out the battle armor and weapons that had been assembled, and quickly appeared in the school grounds prescribed by each division, and lined up.
After receiving the order, one by one the officers rushed to the command camp of the Chinese army non-stop.
At the head of Shangyong City, Cao Ren watched the movements outside the city. His expression became solemn: "Give the order immediately, and all the soldiers will gather." All go to the head of the city and get ready for battle! ”
After half a ring, Yang Bai in the city led his troops to the city: "They can't help it!" ”
"Hmm!"
Cao Ren nodded and said, "The drums are already beating outside the city, but it's not clear whether they will fight or not, but this time they should be planning to attack the city." Because they probably know that our reinforcements are coming! ”
……
The night was awe-inspiring, and in the camp on the plain, the flames were soaring into the sky, and the soldiers were waiting in formation, and the fighting spirit was soaring.
The Chinese army commanded the battalion. Zhao Yun was already standing in armor, holding a gentian bright silver spear in his hand, his eyes were like a sword, and the battle intent all over his body filled every corner of the camp.
"From now on, don't ask why, you just need to remember my military orders, anyone who does not respect military orders, delay the war, I will enforce military law on the spot!"
Zhao Yun's voice was very decisive and cold.
"No!"
When the generals heard this, their bodies instinctively stood up straight, as if waiting for military orders.
"There are only two gates in Shangyong City, from now on, we will attack the East City Gate!"
Zhao Yun acted cleanly, directly dropped the tip of the gun on a place on the sand table, and shouted at the two of the division commanders: "Xu Kun, Chen Mu!" ”
"The last general!"
The commander of the 2nd Division of the Southern Army and the commander of the 8th Division of the Flame stood up.
"This time, your two divisions are the main force attacking the East City Gate, and after an hour, you will start to launch a feint attack on the East City Gate, remember, it is a feint, I allow you to vigorously use long-range weapons to attack, but you can't launch a strong attack, you must control the casualties within the acceptable range!"
"Feint?"
When Xu Kun and Chen Mu heard this, they were slightly stunned, but they reacted quickly, and immediately gave up their hands to receive the order, and said in unison: "The last general will take the order!" ”
"Chen Mu, you are more steady, I will not participate in the battle of the East City Gate, you are the main general, Xu Kun is the auxiliary general, remember my request is that you are a feint, but you must feel that the soldiers in the city are indeed attacking, not feints!"
"Yes!"
Chen Mu suddenly asked, "General, do we keep feints, or do we ......?"
"Three days!"
Zhao Yun said in a deep voice: "Feint attack for three days, on the night of the third day, you don't see any signal, immediately withdraw your troops, when you see a fire on the highest mountain peak on the west side of Shangyong, that is my signal, your feint attack will immediately turn into a strong attack, at all costs, drag all the enemy troops and all the troops!" ”
"Yes!"
The two division commanders understood, and both nodded their heads to receive the order.
"He Tang, Chang Zheng!" Zhao Yun continued to order.
"The last general!"
"The 3rd Division of the Southern Army and the 2nd Division of the Wild Lion are both cavalry, and from now on, they will be under my command, and there shall be no objections!"
"Yes!"
Zhao Yun stepped out, staring at the generals, the spear in his hand was raised, and he shouted: "Within three days, I will break the city and seize Hanzhong for the sake of Great Wu, please help me!" ”
"We will be ruined, and we will not hesitate to do so!"
Although the generals were a little unable to understand Zhao Yun's gourd, Zhao Yun's confidence and confidence convinced them, and they bowed their heads one by one and took orders. (To be continued......)
