Han Shizu

Chapter 631 The Attacking Shu Army

"Order all the generals of the battalions of the army to strictly restrain the subordinates, remember your majesty's reward, and fight for the country with all your heart!" Early in the morning, after inspecting the Han army's strongholds, they saw that the suppressed atmosphere had eased, but many soldiers Too much slack, Xiang Xun ordered with a sullen face.

At the top of the sun, the sound of drills in the Han camp sounded as usual, and the combat formation was being practiced without any influence.And as the messengers were dispatched, soon, the generals of all armies gathered in the central army, and the coach gathered the generals to discuss the army.

Liu Chengxun sat and listened, and he also caught up. He sat upright in a calm manner, with a little curiosity in his intelligent eyes.Xiang Xun insisted on being capable, straight to the point, and said: "Our army has stationed troops here for several months, and we have fought for a long time without success. I know that all the soldiers in the army are tired and listless. Now, it's autumn high, and the opportunity to fight has appeared. Proposal to mobilize troops to break through!"

As soon as this remark fell, even the generals who had foreseen it for a long time were refreshed, and their waists became more upright.

"About the strategy of this battle, we have collected opinions from all parties and intend to attack with fire! Today's Mighty City is just a stove full of dry wood and dead wood, and [-] kerosene bombs have been collected in front of the camp. Burn down the Shu army!" Xiang Xun said coldly.

Hearing Xiang Xun's words, Han Chongyun, who was standing behind, subconsciously glanced at Shi Shouxin, as if he had predicted it beforehand.

Xiang Xun still had a serious face, and said meticulously: "After returning to the camp, everyone should prepare the army for battle, store more water than the camp, and cut down all the remaining trees around! This fire, I'm afraid The surrounding mountains and forests are completely destroyed, so we have to be careful!"

Xiang Xun had obviously been planning this matter for a long time. In order to avoid surprises, he ordered to cut down trees indiscriminately when he was cutting down trees to build a village. As a result, the surrounding areas of the Han camp were sparsely shaded and there was a bare "isolation zone".

"In this battle, the Long Qi Army will first use Thunderbolt chariots to attack key points and set fire!" Xiang Xun looked at Wang Quanbin.

"Follow the order!" Gao Huaide responded decisively, with a positive attitude and an uplifting expression.

"The Xingjie army follows behind and launches an attack!" Xiang Xun looked at Wang Quanbin again.

Although a little disappointed, Wang Quanbin still embraced his orders.

"The rest of the armies, prepare separately, and obey the deployment at any time!"

Just finished talking about the general arrangement, suddenly heard the urgent report from the scouts, the military situation of the Shu army has changed.Urgently summon the military academy to enter and listen to its report: "Report to the commander in chief, the Shu army has changed, and [-] Shu troops from Tangcang Town have gone north. Watching their movements, the purpose may be the Yellow Flower Valley. There are also Shu troops in Xiegu, and they will enter Baijian. .”

Hearing the news, Xiang Xun got up immediately, walked to the map hanging in the tent, and compared the place names to study.After thinking about it for a while, he couldn't help laughing: "Baijian and Huanghuagu are all behind our army! It seems that the Shu army really can't stand it anymore, this is trying to break my back!"

"A while ago, the Wu De Division and the Military Intelligence Division came to report one after another, saying that under the order of the Shu court, the Shu army would attack. This is their choice!" Xiang Xun sighed.

"Captain, Baijian and Huanghua Valley are all behind our army. The matter involves our army's food road, especially Huanghua Valley. It is easier to cut off the way back. There are not many defenders there. If the Shu army succeeds, the situation of our army will be affected." It's inevitable that you'll be frustrated!" Gao Huaide said seriously.

Although he had insight into the movement of the Shu army, Xiang Xun did not dare to be careless. After a little consideration, he said seriously: "We must respond quickly, especially the enemy of Tangcang!"

"Commander, the last general asks for orders to attack. The Tang Cangshu army sent to Huanghua Valley must take a long and narrow road. The last general is willing to lead his subordinates to support and fight the Shu army!" Han Chongyun couldn't help but stand out, clasping his fists and begging for orders.He could tell that it might not be their turn on Daying's side, so now that they have the opportunity, they will naturally ask for orders actively.

Wang Renshan also stood up at this time, and asked forcefully: "The last general is willing to go!"

Seeing this, Han Zhongyun frowned immediately, feeling a little unhappy.Xiang Xun waved his hand to stop the other people who were eager to try, his eyes wandered a few times around the two, and he paced up and down, as if he was considering who to send.

At this time, Shi Shouxin, who has always been low-key and modest, finally stood up and said to Xun: "Commander, why don't you divide up your troops, occupy Tang Cang, and pull out this nail buried in the side of our army. In this way, we can also cut off the attack by the way." On the return route of the Shu army, if the Shu army is wiped out, the Baijian enemy will be defeated, and the commander-in-chief will attack Weiwu City, and the Shu army on the other side will definitely collapse!"

"General Shi's vision is sharp!" Xiang Xun couldn't help but nod his head, without concealing his appreciation, he rolled his eyes and said, "The enemies of Tangcang and Baijian should be dealt with by the direct army of the inner palace!"

"Xie Dushuai, the last general will definitely live up to the military order!" Shi Shouxin finally showed joy on his face.

"Soldiers are precious, go down and prepare!" Xiang Xun Chaoshi Shouxin ordered.

Turning around, he studied the military map for a while. This movement of the Shu army moved the whole body with one hair, which made him see too many opportunities at once.Even, the plan to set fire to the mountain has been shaken.

However, staring at the Mighty City marked on Liu's map, Xiang Xun quickly strengthened his determination, and the generals in the court said: "Be prepared today, and send troops to attack key points tomorrow, and defeat the Shu army in one fell swoop!"

"Follow the order!"

Shi and Han Er will quickly leave the account and return to the camp, mobilize their subordinates, and carry out the task.In Shuai Zhang, it is easy to say, but it is not so easy to implement it.

On the way back to the camp, the two had clearly defined the tasks. Of course, Shi Shouxin basically arranged them.Han Chongyun wanted to lead troops to Huanghua Valley, but Shi Shouxin refused.

When it comes to military arrangements, Shi Shouxin, who became strict, didn't show any face, and said directly: "I only bring half of the troops, two battalions of crossbowmen, three battalions of infantry, more arrows, no sundries, and light clothes. Go, go straight to Huanghua Valley, compete with the Shu army for time, and set up an ambush in advance!
You lead the rest of the soldiers to attack Tangcang Town directly, and move according to the situation.If there are insufficient troops and weak defenses, attack them.If the defense is tight, retreat halfway and set up an ambush to stop the Shu army! "

"Yes!" Facing the military order, Han Chongyun didn't have much to say, and simply followed the order.

Huanghua Valley, because it is an important logistics route, the Han army specially left a battalion of troops and civilians stationed in case the Shu army attacked.In terms of defense, it is not considered strong. The Shu army chose to use this as a target, obviously after spying and verification, and they also know the situation in Huanghua Valley.

To the southwest of Taniguchi, about three miles away, from the congested path to the post road, thousands of Shu soldiers stopped to rest.He raised his eyes to look at the sky, the setting sun was setting heavily, and it was setting in the west.

Marching for almost a day, and walking on mountain trails, was very tiring. As far as the eye could see, many soldiers had already lost their formation, resting wantonly, very slack.

The main general, Han Jixun, became angry immediately, and immediately sent out his own soldiers to deliver an order to order his soldiers to retreat into the mountains on both sides to rest, drink water and eat in units of battalions.

At the same time, the scouts sent out in advance to spy on the enemy returned.

"How is it? Is there any abnormality in Huanghua Valley? How is the defense of the Han army?" Han Jixun asked anxiously, handing a water bag to the scout himself.

"Mr. Envoy!" After quenching his thirst, he wiped his mouth, and the scout said, "There is nothing unusual, but the defense is very tight, and the Han soldiers are constantly patrolling, and they are not losing their vigilance!"

Hearing this, Han Jixun breathed a sigh of relief, which is normal. He thought for a while and asked, "Is there a sentry outside the village?"

"Subordinates wait carefully to spy, almost approaching the pass, but there is no Han army sentry!"

"It seems that the Han army is still slack!" Han Jixun sighed, with a smile on his lips, and then ordered: "Order the whole army to rest for another quarter of an hour, and then launch an attack on the Yellow Flower Valley! Choose five hundred strengths Pawns, I will personally lead the advance and go straight to Taniguchi!"

"My lord, the soldiers marched continuously and were exhausted. It's getting late now. Is it inappropriate to attack now? Why don't you take a rest overnight and attack again in the morning?" Hearing the order, the generals around him couldn't help but speak out to persuade them.

"I know the exhaustion of the soldiers. It's not that I don't understand the situation. It's just that the soldiers are very fast and there is no room for delay." Han Jixun said: "In the past three months, the two armies have sent scouts to spy on each other. Although the attack has been concealed as much as possible, I'm afraid it won't be long. It is necessary for the Han army to react, take down the Yellow Flower Valley, and strengthen the defense of the stronghold.

Otherwise, once the Han army reacts and the Yellow Flower Valley is not under, our army will be in danger!Furthermore, since our army has touched Taniguchi and is close under the eyes of the Han army, how long can we remain invisible? "

"Tell the soldiers, persist a little longer and overcome fatigue. Hundreds of soldiers and civilians are stationed in Huanghua Valley. As long as you take it down, you can rest assured!" Han Jixun explained patiently.

"Follow the order!" After listening, the generals around him were obviously convinced, and immediately made arrangements.

Han Jixun continued to endure fatigue and exerted himself. He held the handle of the knife tightly with his left hand, and his eyes were fixed on the north. His eyes were sharp, and he seemed to be able to see the destination of this time, the Yellow Flower Valley, through the thick trees.

In the defeat of Huangniuzhai, Han Jixun was consciously careless, and this attack was because he took the initiative to ask for orders to attack, intending to avenge his shame.

When the time came, Han Jixun personally led [-] elite soldiers to the entrance of Huanghua Valley, and with the sound of horns, he launched an attack on the guards of the Han army in Huanghua Valley.
