Chapter 494: Misty Attack

(Thank you for the monthly pass support on the night of the moon, thank you!) )

Zhu Wen held a red pennant gun and led his team of fifty people to march closely in front of him. He didn't know if this would be the last sunrise he could see in his life, and he didn't say this emotion to Zhu Cun and Zhu Zhen who were walking side by side with him, because he didn't know if Lu Dao thought that such a thing was a sign of cowardice.

He is a team leader, and according to the head of the sect, Li Cunxiao, a team leader is not only the head of these 50 people, but also the courage of these 50 people. As the leader of the team, you must have both brains and courage, and his every move affects the whole team, so he cannot show any cowardice.

The handsome Li Jing has ever thought about death before every battle?

The army was silent, only the rhythmic footsteps sounded in the vast mist. Today's fog is big, so big that the eye can only see a few people in front and behind. Zhu Wen couldn't even see all the fifty people in his team, so he could only walk closely next to each other, and once he was scattered, he might not be able to find a large army again.

When there was a glimmer of dawn in the sky, they had finished walking from Daying to Yucheng, which was only a distance of more than thirty miles.

This auxiliary army of 5,000 people went all the way to the city of Yu, but the defenders of the city still didn't know what to do. With such a big fog, you can't see anything three steps away.

When they were five hundred paces below the city, the army stopped.

was able to touch the city so smoothly, and this result surprised Liu Xun, who came up with the idea. Now that we're in the city, we haven't thought about what to do next.

"What is there to think of, find a few people with strong hands and feet, and climb directly up the wall. Feel open the gates. Then set fires everywhere. The thieves will be in chaos, and the thieves will be defeated in one fell swoop. Li Cunxiao shouted.

Li Cunxiao is known as a tiger general, brave but resourceful, everyone naturally didn't listen to his words, but looked at Liu Xun together. Liu Xunke is known as Xiao Zhuge and has a hundred steps and plans, and when it comes to strategy, it naturally depends on him.

Liu Xun thought slowly in his heart. What is the purpose of this auxiliary?

It is not to destroy the enemy but to lure the enemy, Wang Xianzhi has a lot of soldiers and horses, and it is a joke to rely on 5,000 auxiliary troops to destroy the enemy. The marshal did not directly send the Zhenguo army up, first, he did not want the Zhenguo army to confront the grass thieves and lose the brothers in vain. Second, he was also worried that the grass thieves would flee immediately after seeing the strength of the Zhenguo army. Now the main purpose of sending auxiliary troops up is to make the grass thieves have the heart of underestimating the enemy, so that they will not only not be afraid of the Zhenguo army, but also unconsciously surround and swallow this bait.

If you understand the tasks of the auxiliary army, then this battle will be easy to fight.

Through the fog, this battle can be fought. If you can capture Yucheng, you will definitely be able to attract an army of grass thieves. As long as they can hold off the grass thieves for half a day, the elite of the Zhenguo Army will be able to arrive.

However, Liu Xun still has a hidden worry in his heart, that is, it is still impossible to judge whether the handsome Li Jing is just a small fight or a big fight.

The 20,000 soldiers and horses of the Zhenguo Army seem to be divided into four routes, one way to defend Songcheng, and three roads to attack Dangshan, Chuqiu, and Kaocheng.

With Songcheng as a stronghold, the grass army in the area of Yucheng was outflanked by three routes, and finally surrounded them on the east bank of Bianqu and the west bank of Bianshui. To achieve this goal, you can't scare away the grass thief.

If they can defeat Yucheng and then lead the grass army near Yucheng over, then the marshal's three-way soldiers and horses can be outflanked more smoothly. However, in order to achieve better results, Li Jing's three-way soldiers and horses will send troops a little later than the auxiliary army. The auxiliaries now have a good chance of taking Yucheng, but the most important thing is how to deal with the grass army rushing nearby.

If the commander only needs to defeat the grass thieves, then the Zhenguo army will quickly come to help, and it will be safer for them to take Yucheng, and it will be enough to hold on for half a day. But in case Li Jing plans to inflict heavy losses on the grass thieves and really come up with a big roundabout outflanking tactic, it will take at least two to three days for the reinforcements to arrive, that is, he will have to defend Yucheng for three days.

If the main force is really ready to outflank in a roundabout way, then it is better for them not to take Yucheng, so that they can avoid being besieged. But in this way, the effect of the bait is not strong.

Liu Xun thought about it, and finally told the other five people about his guesses and judgments, so that everyone could make the final decision together.

"Why didn't the teacher just tell us how he was going to use the soldiers?" Li Cunxiao asked.

Yang Shihou pinched his chin and said, "Because the teacher would not have thought that we would have the opportunity to take Yucheng with these recruits." If it weren't for the fog, we wouldn't have had a chance to take the city. Therefore, naturally this will not be taken into account. If we don't take Yucheng, we won't be besieged. I think the teacher's intention is to outflank him. ”

"In that case, wouldn't it be dangerous for us to attack Yucheng?" Gao Siji couldn't help but worry.

"What, the third brother is scared?" Wang Yanzhang stood aside and said.

Gao Siji was a little embarrassed by Wang Yanzhang's words, "I just think about it from the perspective of the overall situation, how can I be afraid." ”

"If we consider the overall situation, then we should take Yucheng even more, in this way, isn't it more conducive to the marshal to encircle?" Wang Yanzhang continued, unforgiving.

Hearing this, everyone was silent. Wang Yanzhang is right, from the overall situation, if they can take it, they will naturally take Yucheng, so that they can attract grass thieves and let the handsome smoothly close the siege. But in this way, everyone is in danger, after all, this auxiliary army is all new recruits.

"Also consider a bird, what are you afraid of if you are in danger, if you are afraid of death, you can still fight a bird war, and only when there is danger can we show our ability. We are new soldiers, Wang Xianzhi's soldiers are still a group of homeless people, not to mention that we are also fully armored and weaponized, who is strong and who is weak will know the way. Li Cunxiao shouted.

Liu Xun, Gao Siji and several others glanced at each other, and they all made up their minds.

"Cunxiao is right, since God gave us this opportunity, it would be a pity not to take it. Beat! Liu Xun finally made up his mind.

After deciding to take the city, it was a question of how to fight.

Speaking of this, everyone unanimously recognized Liu Xun's command position as a senior brother.

"The old five Tianxiong and the sixth are interrogated, and the two of you each pick a team of elite soldiers to find a way to infiltrate the city from the west gate and the south gate respectively. The second iron spear and the third Chengwu respectively took the headquarters of the soldiers and horses to guard the two gates and prepared to enter the city, the old four tigers, you took the second battalion of the headquarters to guard the southeast of the city to the direction of Dangshan, and I led the headquarters to guard the northwest of the city to the direction of Chuqiu. There are Wang Xianzhi's soldiers and horses not far from these two sides, and we must not allow the reinforcements of the grass thieves to break through our defense line before Yucheng is captured. ”

After dividing the tasks, the six of them returned to their headquarters.

Li Cunxiao was dissatisfied that he couldn't enter the city, but when Liu Xun told him that the task of defense was heavier and that he needed the most fierce generals, he immediately went back to the headquarters with a smile. He rode back to his own formation, he had two battalions under his command, but he was the only battalion-level officer, and below were twenty team leaders and deputy team leaders, Yu Hou, and sect leaders, and there was no teaching.

Zhu Wen, Zhu Cun, and Zhu Zhen looked at Li Cunxiao's big horse that surpassed others by many people, and they were all amazed.

Zhu Zhen whispered to Zhu Wen and the two: "When there is a battle for a while, let's remember to follow the commander closely." ”

Zhu Wen was puzzled: "What is it for?" ”

"Haven't you heard that although this Li Yanei is the fourth among the handsome disciples and the youngest, his martial arts are the highest? It is said that he can defeat three of the enemy's opponents alone, and it takes four people to gain the upper hand over him, and the other five can defeat him together. Let's follow him, naturally we have to be safer, not to mention, by following him, our brave performance, the commander can see it. ”

The two brothers Zhu Wen couldn't help laughing, indeed, this commander is a disciple of the handsome, if the bravery he shows makes him see it in his eyes, he will be promoted casually, or say a word or two in front of the handsome, they will be developed. Wasn't it because Zhu Wen said it well last time, but the brothers became the team leader.

Li Cunxiao's equipment is very gorgeous, wearing a fierce treasure armor given by Li Jing, a gold cloak, and a bloody horse. There is an iron lance in his hand, a jade sword at his waist, and a pair of gold armor immediately hanging. Everything is precious and enviable. His muddy iron lance weighed dozens of pounds, but he carried it in his hand with the same ease as a white wax rod gun.

At this moment, Li Cunxiao went to the front of the 1,000 soldiers and horses of the main formation, led them to the southeast of Yucheng, pointed to the ground with a lance, and ordered everyone to take their positions.

"If anyone dares to escape, I will kill him with my own hands!" He roared loudly, and turned his head just in time to see Zhu Wen and the others. "Zhu Wen, you lead someone to guard the left, and I will pull out five teams for you to see if you have the ability to hold it. If you can hold it, after Lao Tzu goes back, he will personally ask the commander to give you credit and let you be the commander. ”

That was the left flank of their 1,000 men, and as long as they held here, the soldiers and horses who came to help the grass thieves could not outflank them from the flank. For further to the left is a river, not too deep, but not easy to wade.

Zhu Wen received the military order and returned to the five teams assigned to him, pointed the flag gun in his hand to the river, and said loudly: "This is the river!" At this time, a layer of white mist shrouded the river as well, and the clear water flowed underneath it. It is impossible to see how wide the river is because of the fog, but looking at the beach here, it is estimated that the river is thirty paces wide. The riverbank was muddy and covered with reeds. "Our task is to defend the beach, and no matter what happens, we must make sure that we hold the beach to the death, and that no one will be allowed to wade between the beach and us. If anyone dares to come up from the river, we will cut off their dogs' heads and throw them back into the river!" ”

When the other four team leaders saw Zhu Wen's fierce expression, they also put away the little caution in their hearts.

Zhu Wen and Zhu Zhen and Zhu Cun carefully inspected their defensive ground, and the surrounding land was rugged and muddy. There is still a lot of mud on the shore, and it slips when you step on it. As the battle got closer and closer, Zhu Wen's heartbeat became faster and faster, and his face couldn't help but turn slightly pale. He watched Li Cunxiao riding the sweaty BMW walking around, shouting loudly, making the most difficult arrangements and boosting morale.

At this time, the fog in the sky was getting thinner and thinner, and even the sun behind the fog was gradually becoming clearer, Zhu Wen tightened his hand holding the flag gun, his eyes were full of determination. (To be continued......)
