Chapter 50: A Night Raid
Early the next morning, the first thing Wang Xu did was to apply to Huang Fu Song for protection, and Huang Fu Song agreed without any hesitation. The team led by Gao Shun naturally had to be temporarily under Wang Xu's name. However, Wang Xu is convinced that he will soon remove the two words temporary!
And Zhou Zhi didn't know if he suddenly opened his mind, and he pestered Gao Shun to learn martial arts every day. And as everyone deliberately made friends, the relationship between each other became better and better, coupled with Wang Xu's relationship, Gao Shun finally couldn't stand his entanglement, and three days later, he actually accepted him as an apprentice and taught him his martial arts!
However, Gao Shun's training method is too ruthless, Zhou Zhi is really a little miserable after practicing every day, and he himself enjoys it!
And Wang Xu was not idle during this time, and quickly grasped all the current shapes. I will also participate in Huangfu Song's military meetings every day, but it is a pity that it has been more than ten days, but I have not discussed even a meaningful tactic to break the enemy.
However, Zhu Jun's side did not meet Wang Xu's expectations, and he won all four battles, and also killed two Yellow Turban generals that Wang Xu had never heard of, Chen Long, a bad star, and Yang Bai, a dog star! At the beginning, Wang Xu was very puzzled, and he couldn't understand why this wave of talent was so reluctant, and he continued to take the generals to death after defeat! Although this did allow Zhu Jun to completely relax his vigilance, the loss seemed to be too great.
However, when he knew from Huangfu Song that these two people happened to be the henchmen of the unjustly killed ghost Tang Zhou, he was immediately relieved! Cut the grass and eradicate the roots, this wave is also decisive!
Unconsciously, Wang Xu had been in the military camp for half a month, and the Yellow Turban Rebellion was originally to break out in late October 183 AD, but now it is late December......
Lying quietly in the big tent alone, Wang Xu thought about what had happened in the past two months, and he had a little emotion. Calculating the current time, I think there should be a big move soon!
As soon as he thought of this, a shout suddenly came from outside the tent: "Is Wang joining the army here?" General Huangfu ordered you to hurry to the big tent of the Chinese army! ”
"Huh?"
Wang Xu quickly got up, walked out of the tent door suspiciously, looked at the guard of Huangfu Song in front of him and asked, "Didn't there just have a military discussion two hours ago?" How to convene again? ”
"I don't know the specifics, but I heard that General Huangfu received the latest information, so I asked all the generals to rush to the meeting immediately!"
"Hmmm! Good! In response, Wang Xu no longer hesitated, and immediately rushed to the Chinese army's tent.
By the time he arrived, there were already quite a few people sitting in the tent. After Wang Xu found his position, he was quiet. The eyes looked at the calm face of Huangfu Song on the handsome seat from time to time.
Soon, the big tent of the Chinese army was full of people, and there were even many generals, Wang Xu still didn't know him. This is different from the kind of high-level discussion in the Huangfu Song tent when Wang Xu first came, but the leading figures of the whole army gathered together.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Huangfu Song waved his hand to stop everyone's whispering. Glancing at it majestically, he gently picked up a few silk silks on the table and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I have received two latest messages just now, some of which are good and some of them are bad!" The good news is that General Zhu Jun won the rematch with the Yellow Turban this morning. The bad news is that Nanyang Yellow Turban Zhang Mancheng led his troops to attack the Taishou Chu Gong Department, and Nanyang Taishou Chu Gong has unfortunately died! ”
"I am calling you here to discuss the current situation. At present, we have been confronting the main force of the Yellow Turban for more than half a month, and the Yellow Turban is also gaining momentum in various places! His Majesty has issued an edict ordering us to quickly defeat the enemy's main force, and then support the rest of the officers and soldiers of the counties! So I hope that a resolution must be made today to repel the yellow scarves! ”
With Huangfu Song's words, the tent fell into a deathly silence......
In fact, this is a difficult problem at all, and in this situation, even Wang Xu secretly shook his head, even if he didn't want to disturb history, he didn't have any good way.
After all, the enemy is outnumbered now, although the imperial army is more elite, but the overall strength is not comparable to Bocai. Although Zhu Jun's side has won successive battles, he has not been able to make any major breakthroughs so far. Although Bocai has been defeated again and again, he is extremely resilient, and he has always dragged it there, and it is impossible for Zhu Jun's troops to do anything with him.
And Huangfu Song here did not dare to go to reinforcements, because once he moved closer to Zhu Jun, then the momentum of the horns would not exist. At that time, he didn't have to worry about his right-wing Bocai, so he could do his best to fight with the two. And this is exactly what Huangfu Song and others do not want, the current situation, the imperial court can not afford the loss of a frontal decisive battle, and can only win by calculation.
As for the local troops in Yingyin City, there is no need to count on it, they can barely hold the city, it is already a great luck......
Seeing that there was still no one speaking after a long silence in the tent, Huangfu Song couldn't help but shake his head in disappointment. "Since you don't have a better plan, you can only use this method that is not a solution."
Hearing this, the generals immediately pricked up their ears and waited for the following.
"This is General Zhu Jun's suggestion, I didn't agree with it, but now there is no time for us to consume, so I have to do it!"
Saying that, Huangfu Song couldn't help but let out a long sigh before he continued: "In the past few days, General Zhu Jun and the Yellow Turban have engaged in small-scale battles one after another, although no breakthrough has been made, but it has also greatly lowered the morale of the thief army. Therefore, he will come out of the nest tonight, and the night attack wave will be the main camp. We, on the other hand, abandoned the baggage of the big camp, did not change our banner, and quietly marched westward, lurking in the lower valley twenty miles away from Bocai. When the fire starts in the west, we will immediately detour from the side road to the rear of Bocai, and try to deliver a fatal blow! ”
"This plan works!" When the generals heard this, they immediately nodded in agreement.
But Wang Xu shook his head secretly. The ploy itself is good, but as long as it is properly deployed, it may not be impossible to succeed. But how can this night raid be used when the confrontation has been going on for a long time? Without suddenness, how can it be called an attack? Don't say that Bocai itself is a deception and temptation, even if there is no such thing, this kind of night attack is not assisted by other good strategies, and whether it can succeed is really a bit suspenseful! At least luck plays a big part.
Thinking about it, Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song should not have thought of this, otherwise they would not have delayed the implementation until now, and it is estimated that they were forced by the pressure of the imperial court. Perhaps, their idea is that even if the night attack fails, it will be just a head-on decisive battle!
But Wang Xu, who had already guessed the inside story, knew very well in his heart that Bo Cai must have already set up an ambush, waiting for the court every day to sneak attack him. This time the imperial court will be defeated badly......
"Third brother, it's not right!"
What Wang Xu didn't expect was that Wang Fei, who was sitting next to him, also noticed the clue and quietly stuck it to his ear.
Wang Xu immediately couldn't help but ask in surprise: "What's wrong?" ”
Wang Fei frowned, thought for a long time, and then said suspiciously: "There must be something strange about this!" You think, judging from the situation during this period of time, the Yellow Turban Thief General Bo is quite good at leading troops, otherwise General Zhu Jun would not have been able to achieve heavy results in the case of Lian Zhan's victory. In this case, how could he bite General Zhu and insist on engaging in a small-scale fight with General Zhu there? Didn't he know that this would lead to a gradual decline in morale? ”
"Moreover, his main army has never moved a single bit, nor has he sought a way to break through the status quo, so it is really abnormal! Even if he refuses to give up the opportunity to attack Yingyin City, then he can avoid the battle? Could it be that Lord Zhu Jun's more than 20,000 people and horses still dare to attack his camp of more than 100,000 troops head-on? ”
