Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 332
Lan Tian didn't answer after listening, thinking of Cao Cao's famous saying: The dragon is a hero comparable to the world.

Are you a hero?He asked himself, if he didn't have 2000 years of knowledge, he might not be able to survive in this era. During these years, he has dealt with many heroes and lamented that the ancients are not inferior to the future people, and even better than the future people in some aspects.

The "Book of Changes" is also worthy of being the top of the group of scriptures. The February [-] "dragon raising its head" well-known to later generations is not just a trimming at the barbershop, but a real dragon above the sky.

The few days when the 'dragon' raised its head from the horizon coincided with the 24th solar term's Awakening of Insects. In deep spring, the Canglong changes at the right time, controlling the wind and thunder to wake up all dormant things.

Lan Tian has seen some weird legends in the original world, saying that people in ancient times may not be so backward, and their glory may far exceed the future. As for why it has become the current world, it may be like a wonderful reincarnation.

The core of the classics handed down from ancient times, such as "University" and "The Analects of Confucius", is in the first sentence of the opening sentence.

From Qianlong Wuyu to seeing the dragon in the field, from the flying dragon in the sky to the overbearing dragon with regrets, this cycle is endless. No matter people or things in the world, no matter the country or even the universe, they are all bound by this law.

Gao Shun beside him watched the night sky quietly. Lan Tian felt that the wind in the spring night was particularly gentle. He slowly closed his eyes, recalling the complete astrology of Canglong. It is also a good thing to be able to deter Sun Quan.

Lan Tian didn't fall asleep for a long time, when he heard rustling sounds beside his ears, he sat up and found that the soldiers were eating dry food.

At this time, the sky was already bright, and the red sun in the east had fully appeared, and the light shone golden on the ground.

"Sir, have you rested?" Gao Shun walked over in time.

"What time is it?" Lan Tian asked curiously.

"It should be Maoshi." Gao Shun looked at the sky.

Lan Tian stood up and moved his body, and found that Gao Shun was still in good spirits after not sleeping all night. He really admired this man's physical fitness.

"What's the situation with Cheng Pu now? Has the siege started?" Lan Tian asked.

Gao Shun shook his head: "The scouts sent back information just now, Cheng Pu is still making fire and cooking after dawn, and we should divide up the troops to besiege the city later, it is still too early to start the siege, at least it will take at least an hour, let's rush over slowly Just right."

"Aren't we going to chase after the opponent before they attack the city? The number of defenders in Linxiang is nearly ten times that of Cheng Pu's. The pressure on Xingba's defense should be great." Lan Tian reminded.

Gao Shun nodded and said: "Even if the strength of the two sides is very different, with General Gan's ability, it is not a problem to defend for a day or two. Now if we march quickly, Cheng Pu will wait for us to work if we rush over. It turned out to be different."

Lan Tian's eyes lit up: "Cheng Pu is about to go all out, and we happened to pierce his war drum from behind? The sharp knife on the back is indeed terrifying."

"Sir, you are right. Charge to seize the city and look back to meet the enemy. The mentality of the two is very different. The former has the encouragement of not sealing the sword to boost morale, while the latter is attacked without breaking through the city. This will affect the entire army. The morale of the army is greatly affected, and they may even be timid to fight because of the large number of reinforcements." Gao Shun explained.

Lan Tianxin said Lao Gao that you can also play psychological warfare, so he nodded in praise: "You really deserve to be the world-famous leader of the camp."

Gao Shun shook his head calmly, "It's all the experience gained from years of fighting."

Lan Tian smiled and said: "Why should Boping be humble, he is already a good general who can sum up experience, and he can sum up more military books to be passed down in the future."

Gao Shun quickly waved his hands: "Mr., the more you say, the more outrageous you are. Gao is just a warrior, and you are the only one who can write military books."

Seeing that he was going to brag about his business with him, Lan Tian quickly stopped the imminent behavior.

After the dry rations were used up, the army set off again. Although the night's rest time was not particularly long, compared with Cheng Pu's night of panic, this short-term high-quality sleep effect was better.

Because of their excellent equipment, the entrapment army can greatly reduce the battle damage. Yesterday, when they fought against Huang Gai's cavalry, less than a hundred people died in the battle, but there were still three or four hundred wounded soldiers.

When leaving the U-shaped river last night, Gao Shun asked Chu Qing to send out a hundred scouts, and let these hundred people and the wounded soldiers escort the troops south to Guiyang. Their souls return to their homeland.

After the hundreds of surrendered soldiers in Jiangdong had their weapons confiscated, they were worried about dealing with the wounded soldiers of the fallen army, not to mention there were scouts who counted as ten, so they acted as coolies on the road in a very regular manner until they were sent to work in major mines.

The total number of scouts was only 40. Xu Shuang, who rescued Suipu Pass, took away [-] of them. The rest of the scouts followed Gao Shun. Due to the lack of horses in the boat, only half of them were sent to reconnaissance operations, and the remaining half Then participate in the battle as ordinary soldiers.

After defeating Huang Gai, more than 260 war horses were seized. The scouts of Army Sima Chuqing finally got on their horses. [-] elite soldiers ran at the forefront of the team. Their task was to convey the news of the battlefield in time and let the chief general Gao Shun make the best judgment. .

At si o'clock in the morning, the soldiers and horses in the east of the river divided into three routes to besiege the city and began to attack. The siege battles at the south gate and the north gate began at the same time.

Cheng Pu was stationed at the east gate of Linxiang to supervise the battle. Because of the deep enmity with Gan Ning before, there was no routine persuading Jiangdong to surrender. Soldiers piled up on the city wall like ants. Make a fortune by breaking the city.

Because the offensive in the east of Linxiang was the fiercest, Gan Ning personally boarded the tower to direct the defense.

Although the number of defenders in the city is relatively small, due to the fact that the camp was robbed last night and the supplies were burned, the defense did not appear to be so strenuous.

Gan Ning patrolled back and forth on the city wall to make sure there were no loopholes in the defense.

During the inspection, Xi Zhen appeared along the parapet wall, and Gan Ning strode past with doubts.

"What is General Xi doing here? Could it be that Cheng Pu sent more troops to the south?" Gan Ning asked nervously.

Xi Zhen beamed and said: "General Gao led the army to appear at the south gate. The Jiangdong rats were caught off guard. They dropped their helmets and armor as soon as they fought. Now they are fleeing to the east. They are really too powerful."

"Sir and Boping came so fast?" Gan Ning was also shocked. The soldiers in the formation were all heavily armored, and their marching speed was incomparable to his light armored soldiers. Being able to go so fast meant that they did not rest at night.

Gan Ning ran towards the southeast of the city wall in a hurry, and he saw a group of Jiangdong soldiers fleeing like ducks, and the two cavalry were like wolves entering a herd of sheep, frantically throwing down the weak prey nearby.

Gan Ning knew that those were Gao Shun's scouts, and the raid was like a sharp knife.

Cheng Pu, who was outside the east gate, immediately reacted. He withdrew the soldiers attacking the city and formed an formation, as if he was going to confront the sudden enemy head-on.
