Riding and cutting the imperial pirates of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 324 Come on
"The most rare thing is the human heart."

"People's hearts are not going well, this is Liu Bei's fault, so before Jiangdong raised righteous soldiers to attack, and later, the princes of Tancheng obeyed the sky and followed the righteousness, enjoying peace"

"The virtue of government is weak, and this treasure land was obtained without fighting. It depends on the fame and utensils, and it also relies on the power of the emperor's sponsor in front of the emperor that day."

"I only heard that the loss of Guan Yu's Huai Mausoleum in the past seems to be a strategy to lure the enemy into a deep place. You must pay attention to it."

In Xiaxiang City, in the study room of the county government, there is such a letter on the case table at this time.

After the adjutant on the side finished reading, he couldn't help looking at Yuan Yin: "Lieutenant, this Wang Zhengxin said in the previous Huailing battle that Liu Bei's army was defeated by fraud. This"

"Listen to this nonsense!" Yuan Yin curled his lips in disdain, and snorted coldly: "Scaremongering, our generals are brave and strong like a rainbow, and they won with dignity. It is obvious that Liu Jun was defeated and fled, so he fell into his mouth What has become to lure the enemy into deep?"

"It's really ridiculous!"

"Then why did he specifically mention this in the letter?" The adjutant expressed doubts: "Our two armies are now forming an alliance. This concern reminds us that it should be."

"Why else?" Yuan Yin took the letter, stared at it for a moment, and frowned tightly: "Tancheng."

He stood up abruptly, paced around the hall, with a resentful expression on his face, and muttered to himself: "Listen to what this Zhuzi means, are the civil and military men in Tancheng surrendering to offer the city?"

"That's what it means." The adjutant glanced at Yuan Yin, seeing that he seemed extremely irritable, and said in a low voice: "I said that no war was launched, so doesn't that mean that no soldier was abolished?"

"Damn it!" Yuan Yin couldn't help but swear: "It's unreasonable!"

"My Yuan family contributed a lot of people and efforts, and the army worked hard on expeditions, and even the three armies fought bravely for several months, and now I haven't even conquered a single Pi!"

"His Wang Zheng easily picked up a big bargain from behind!"

The more Yuan Yin thought about it, the more angry he became, and he slapped the table suddenly: "It is tolerable, which one is unbearable!"

"Tancheng, Donghai, and even every inch of land in Xuzhou." Yuan Yin shouted angrily, "It should belong to my Yuan family!"

He suddenly turned his head to look at the adjutant, with a fierce look in his eyes: "How long is the journey from Prime Minister to Tancheng?"

"More than 200 miles." The adjutant's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but turn pale with shock: "Captain, you shouldn't"

Yuan Yin didn't answer directly, but only thoughtful, and said slowly: "Two hundred miles, if the army rushes with all its strength, day and night, at most three days will be able to reach the city, right?"

The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was going on, his eyes lit up, and he asked again: "Didn't Wang Zheng's letter say that he had sent a large army to come to Pi in several ways? Then there should not be many troops left in Tan County, right?"

"You said that we are going to cheat the gate of the city in the name of celebrating, and we are sure to take this city of Tan?"

"This..." the adjutant cursed in his heart. Although he had expected it just now, he really didn't expect Yuan Yin to be so greedy, and even more stupid, but he didn't dare to refute directly. At present, General Qiao asked us to stay and serve as Prime Minister, originally to guard the east to prevent the enemy from ambush, and the reinforcements will detour to Xiapi to cut off our army's logistics supplies."

"How can you leave without authorization?"

"When you are in battle, if you make decisions without authorization and don't obey the general's orders, Captain."

What the adjutant said was reasonable, especially the last sentence was like pouring cold water on his head, which made Yuan Yin suddenly sober up. Under disappointment, he couldn't help but glared at the adjutant, and scolded sternly:
"He, Qiao Rui, still dares to use military law against me?"

Of course, this was nothing more than bluntness. He said that Yuan Yin was only Yuan Shu's nephew after all, and it was impossible to completely ignore the consequences of not obeying the general's order. After thinking for a while, Yuan Yin asked again: "Then what if we divide the army?"

"Sacrificing the city is just the idea of ​​those officials, the soldiers below may not be convinced, right?"

"Tancheng is the government of the state. How important it is. Although this Lizi will be happy after he gets it, he dare not be careless. He didn't bring many soldiers. It is a big city. Not to mention the defense, we have to divide some of them to take care of it. Those newly descended civil and military, family and even soldiers."

The more Yuan Yin analyzed, the more excited he became: "We now have 6000 troops in the city, and half of them will be allocated. If we take the opportunity to sneak attack, then the king's government will be surprised, and we only need to trick the city gate into opening."

"If the lieutenant really has such a heart," the adjutant sighed secretly, too lazy to persuade: "At least General Qiao should be informed, after all, he is the commander of our army this time."

"That Wang Zheng is not an ordinary person. You have seen his skills when you were in Guangling, Captain. If you really want to take Tancheng, the 3000 people will think that the chances of winning are not great!"

"Well..." Yuan Yin shook his head and thought for a moment, anyway, the Prime Minister is not too far away from Yuan Jun's camp outside Xiapi, and it's just a waste of a day or two, so he nodded:

"Forget it, I'll just edit a book, you go arrange a fast horse and take it to the main camp immediately."

Yuan Yin didn't think about asking Qiao Rui's opinion, but the adjutant's words were right, Wang Zheng was indeed capable, and since that was the case, it was just an excuse to ask for some soldiers.

"Here," said the adjutant, "do you want to take Wang Zheng's letters with you, especially the one he mentioned to lure the enemy?"

"You don't need to present such nonsense to Qiao Rui." Yuan Yin waved his hand.

What a joke, Qiao Rui has always been timid, what if she believes it?
Wang Zheng sent the letter to Yuan Yin, who was in the prime minister, because he was worried that the road from Tan County to Xiapi might be intercepted by Liu Beijun, so the purpose of reminding Yuan Jun would be lost, but Yuan Yin cared more about the change of ownership in Tan County. , and therefore greedy.

Similarly, when Yuan Yin was salivating at Tan County, he didn't know that his own camp was about to start a fierce counterattack by Liu Bei's army.

After the soldiers arrived at Xiapi, Yuan's army surrounded the main city tightly and began to destroy the cities around Xiapi one by one, so as to realize the strategic intention of making Xiapi isolated and helpless.

Coach Qiao Rui's idea cannot be said to be wrong. Once it becomes an isolated city, the morale and morale of the army are all down, and the difficulty of attacking it will be greatly reduced.

Donghai County, outside Liangcheng County.

Perhaps it was because the battle was unexpectedly smooth, and it took only half a day. In addition, since the expedition, Yan Xiang, a civil servant, was not good in the first battle with Ji Ling, but he won consecutive battles. Now he has shown confidence After the capture of Liangcheng, he personally led most of the soldiers and horses to take over the task of chasing down the remnants of the enemy and cleaning the battlefield.

At first, Yan Xiang thought about chasing for more than a dozen miles. After all, the good city had just been broken and he had to digest and appease him, but unexpectedly, when the defeated army chasing the good city reached a river, they found many carriage ruts, and contacted them again. Even before the defeated army retreated, the river bridge was burned down, and Yan Xiang's heart was moved.

Is this Liu Bei's trilogy passing by before?
And it's the logistics team?
This time I caught a big fish, Yan Xiang was overjoyed, and immediately urged his soldiers to build a pontoon bridge urgently, at the same time changed his strategy, and continued to chase to the end.

The focus now is not on the remnants of Liangcheng, but on Liu Beijun's transportation team!

Yan Xiang even wanted to go back to the source and completely cut off this enemy's main transportation route!

Not long after that, when Yan Xiang led his army across the river, the sentry cavalry in front reported again that they found traces of Liu Bei's army stationed in a village in front, and judging from various signs, the team they pursued got another army here. Liu Beijun joins.

This verified Yan Xiang's guess.

After ordering the Sentinels to search carefully, Yan Xiang was even more relieved when he learned that the number of the two armies after the rendezvous was no more than a thousand.

Before crossing the river, he had already sent Kuaiqi back to Liangcheng, notifying the garrison in the city that all of them came to meet up except for a few hundred people left behind. At this time, Yuan's army had a full 3000 troops.

When he worked with Wang Zheng in Guangling before, Yan Xiang was greatly affected, and he highly recognized the style of concentrating the elite, going all out, and accomplishing their merits in one battle. , in one go.

In the darkness of night, the flames flickered.

During the whistling, the military flags fluttered.

After chasing him for a long time, he still didn't find any trace of the enemy. The night wind was blowing in his ear, and his sobbing made Yan Xiang faintly feel some inexplicable uneasiness.

Something is wrong?

"Stop the whole army!"

Yan Xiang first waved his hands and shouted loudly, then raised the reins to stop his horse, looked around, there was no insects, no birds, and the silence was depressing. Looking at it, in the pitch black night, it seemed that there was a ferocious beast hiding people.

Through the moonlight and firelight, he looked up at the sky, and there were faint birds circling in the air, unwilling to settle on nearby branches for a long time.

It's really not right!
Even the air seemed to have a dangerous smell, Yan Xiang directly ordered left and right: "You, take some people forward, you, take some people behind you, spread out in a semicircle, and observe the surroundings!"

next moment.

A few points of fire suddenly appeared in front of him, first two or three points disappeared and appeared suddenly, but Yan Xiang's heartstrings were glaringly tense in an instant, and then, the fire lights changed from two or three points to dozens of points, and then hundreds, thousands!
They became one after another bit by bit, intersecting and connecting in series, and finally turned into a winding fire dragon, directly tearing through the night!

"There are ambulances!"

Yan Xiang roared, and instinctively thought of retreating in his mind, but he immediately shouted: "Form up immediately! Meet the enemy!"

Don't be chaotic when encountering ambush, don't retreat in a dangerous situation, don't retreat in a flat principle, and don't retreat even half a step!

Once you retreat, you will lose a thousand miles!
This is what Wang Zheng told him, and Yan Xiang kept it in his heart.

"Don't panic, there are only a thousand enemies!" Yan Xiang comforted the uneasy soldiers behind him, turned his head and looked around, and made sure again.

This is a land of plains, and there are no hills and obstacles in the distance. There is no place for soldiers or people to hide.

My choice is right!
Secretly cheering himself up, Yan Xiang continued to say loudly: "The Xuzhou army can't beat us head-on, so we can only play these tricks, just keep laughing!"

"Meeting on a narrow road, the brave wins! Our army is always at the forefront of victory, and the enemy's remnants are defeated!"

"Our army is several times stronger than the enemy, and our bravery is far superior. This battle must be won!"

As he said that, Yan Xiang spat viciously on the ground, and shouted loudly: "Brothers, I will charge with me later!"

Before that, he learned everything about Wang Zheng, but Yan Xiang had self-knowledge when he charged into the battle, he didn't have the bravery like that of Zhu Zi's monster, and he never acted recklessly first.

But today, under the crisis, in order to boost morale, he, the general, can no longer shout "give me up".

I can only learn Wang Zheng to the end, and say "follow me!"

On the other side, looking at the sight of Yuan Jun in the distance, Zhang Fei smashed his mouth, and said with a little regret: "It's a pity, the thief general is a little alert, and he found something wrong before stepping into the encirclement."

"But." Looking at Yuan Jun who was ten miles away, Zhang Fei shook his head with a smile, and muttered, "It's too late!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand violently, and was about to order the entire army to move forward, when the deputy general said, "Sima, we only have 2000 troops now, and we must guard against bandits and beasts."

"I can ride through thousands of armies by myself. What's the point of three thousand Jiangdong rats?" Zhang Fei snorted coldly when he heard this.

"Sima Huwei, the final general is sure of it." The deputy general saw Zhang Fei glanced over, his eyes were like lightning, his heart skipped a beat, and he quickly explained: "It's just that this is the first battle of our army's counterattack. If the soldiers lose too much Many, a miserable victory, this."

He is one of the Eighteen Yan Cavalrymen under Zhang Fei's command. After following him for a long time, he knows his nature. He is not a general who cherishes soldiers, so he chose the entry point of victorious victory in the first battle.

These words really hit Zhang Fei's heart. He was very ashamed when he lost Guangling when he was drunk and made a mistake. did you mean?"

"The main force of the enemy has been heard, presumably Zhou Mu has already recaptured the Liangcheng, and even led the army to come here, if we don't rush to fight, when the Zhou Mu army arrives, we will attack back and forth, and a big victory is within easy reach! "

Waiting for big brother to come?

If we win together, is this still my crime?
These words had the opposite effect, making Zhang Fei's mind firm instead, "Why bother?"

"Your worries, I have a solution!"

Zhang Fei pointed straight ahead, pointed forward with the horizontal spear, and said disdainfully: "Jiangdong rats, you are all morons!"

"After a while, I will charge first, rush over, and kill the general first, so that the bandit army will be in chaos. If you take the opportunity to go forward and kill them, the soldiers will naturally not lose too much!"

"By the way, didn't Liangcheng soldiers before say that the general is Yan Xiang?" Zhang Fei laughed heartily, showing his generosity and boldness: "I thought it was familiar before, but now I just remembered that this person is The second elder brother must be punished."

"It's wonderful, it just so happened that I haven't seen my second brother for a long time, and I'm worried that I don't have much gift to offer."

"in this way."

When the words paused, the lieutenant watched helplessly as the murderous intent suddenly emerged, and it was fixed in Zhang Fei's leopard eyes. His heart felt cold, and his breathing seemed to stop for a moment at the same time.

"Let's use this person's head as the meeting gift!"

Yan Xiang sat on the horse, constantly adjusting his breathing.

The light of the torch in the distance is getting stronger and closer.

The battle was imminent, and he kept a close eye on the shape of Liu Bei's army, guessing how many people were ambushing and what formation the enemy might form.How to deal with this.

The battle was imminent, and this time he had to go forward in person. Yan Xiang was a little nervous, even scared. He couldn't control his thoughts, so he could only remind others that he must not let others see that whether it is the enemy or his own soldiers, !
The battle was imminent, and before going into battle in person, he suddenly thought of Wang Zheng.

Thinking of the other party's astonishing bravery, as if it was really "divine power".

At this moment, Yan Xiang realized deeply and clearly that since the first time he saw this kind of martial bravery, he had expressed disdain and contempt in his mouth, but in fact, envy had been born in his heart long ago.

Decades of reading poetry and books can't erase the yearning for bravery in the bones of a man in the Han Dynasty.

If I have such bravery, how wonderful it would be!

With a deep sigh, Yan Xiang clenched the long sword in his hand and looked into the distance.

come on!

Come fight!
