Chapter 655
It is said that Hong Chengchou, the governor of the five provinces, saw that Cao Wenzhao was invincible and unstoppable, so he was persuaded by the left and right to retreat.

Hong Chengchou couldn't help but smiled and said: "Although Cao Wenzhao is brave, he is insignificant. After all, he is a body of flesh and blood. How many can he kill? The only thing I fear is to follow the thief. If you follow the thief, you will not die. I feel uneasy." !"

Sure enough, Cao Wenzhao beheaded Liu Guozhen, the deputy commander-in-chief, surrendered some of the surrendered troops, and drove away the rest of the defeated soldiers, only to see another wall between the rebels and the officers and soldiers in front of them.

Cao Wenzhao sneered, and ordered the soldiers to separate, and Li Shi'an followed with artillery, and attacked the front wall.

After a burst of shelling, the heavy shells hit the van in front of them violently, and only the wooden boards were smashed, but there was no scream.

Cao Wenzhao was puzzled in his heart, so he couldn't help but take a closer look, and saw scattered soil from the cracks in the smashed planks.

It turned out that Hong Chengchou was very scheming. When he first set up the camp, he considered that the rebel army was brave in fighting and might penetrate the middle line of the officers and soldiers.

So he ordered the soldiers to connect the last van together, pile up the soil, and build a simple earth wall to resist the impact of the rebels.

Although the soil is soft, it has good adsorption properties.Although the artillery of the Rebel Army was fierce, the power of the shells fired was all absorbed by the inconspicuous soil.

Cao Wenzhao shook his head helplessly and said: "It's common for Cao to break through the city first, how can he be stopped by an earthen wall?" Then he got off his horse and led the soldiers to attack the past.

Not to mention the outcome of the two sides, let's say that when Cao Wenzhao and the officers and soldiers were fighting, the officers and soldiers also surrounded the left and right wings, facing the "King of Troubled Times" from the left formation of the rebel army and Cao Bianjiao from the right formation.

The "King of Troubled Times" and Cao Bianjiao only have three thousand elite soldiers, which is less than the officers and soldiers.Fortunately, Zhang Shun asked Cao Dingjiao and Zhao Lizi to fetch the vans and lined up on the left and right, thinking that the city wall would guard the officers and soldiers.

The "King of Troubled Times" faced Zuo Guangxian, the general soldier of Shaanxi, and Cao Bianjiao faced Wang Chengen, the general soldier of Lintao.All four of them are veteran generals, but they were inextricably fighting for a while.

However, Zhang Shun knew in his heart that Cao Bianjiao and the "King of Troubled Times" had fewer troops in their hands, and they would lose if they stayed for a long time.

Zhang Shun went up to the watchtower and watched it for a while, then came down and gave an order: "In the city of Chuanling, order Zhang Shenyan to use Ding Zhuang to defend the city, let Li Xin lead Gao Yigong and other high-level battalions to attack the officers and soldiers attacking the right wing of the rebel army!"

"Daddy, this is too dangerous!" Zhang Shun just finished speaking, but a clear female voice responded.

Zhang Shun took a closer look, and it turned out that one of the soldiers who had been following him was Gao Guiying.

She was still wearing that rather old padded armor, and her face was so black that she couldn't see her true face clearly.

Zhang Shun couldn't help being taken aback, and asked casually, "Why are you here? Didn't I tell you to stay in the city?"

"Why can't I come?" Gao Guiying would not admit that she was a little worried about him.She just felt that Zhang Shun was gone, and she guarded the vacant room with no one to talk to, so she was flustered, so she secretly changed into a padded jacket and chased after him.

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and pass the order!" Zhang Shun was too lazy to argue with her, and quickly ordered.

"There are no troops left in the city to deter the unruly people, if there is an emergency," Gao Guiying couldn't help questioning.

"No chance!" Zhang Shun interrupted Gao Guiying's words decisively, and sternly shouted, "The battle is dangerous, and the rebel army is not only half the number of officers and soldiers, but the opponent's commander is quite old-fashioned Hong Chengchou. It is difficult to fight against the opponent now. It’s really not easy to solve the problem.”

"As the saying goes, 'a lion fights a rabbit with all its strength'. Not to mention the fact that now that the opportunity for battle has appeared, how can we look forward and look backward and leave some spare energy? This is not only a disrespect for the opponent, but also an irresponsible behavior for the lives of the rebels. ! Listen to my orders and execute them quickly!"

"Oh, promise!" Gao Guiying answered with her lips pouted. In fact, what she wanted to ask was the "Gaoying" Xinfu. Are you so relieved?Seeing Zhang Shun's resolute attitude, facts speak louder than words, what else does she ask?

In fact, why didn't Zhang Shun have any worries in his heart?It's just that on the battlefield, things change rapidly, so Hong Chengchou is indeed a crafty and cunning person.

Obviously, he has exhausted all his tricks and has already suppressed the momentum of the officers and soldiers. Hong Chengchou can always conjure up new tricks to deal with it.

Now both sides are like gamblers, they both think that the dice in their dice cups have higher points, and they recklessly put all the chips in their hands on it, trying to determine the outcome in one fell swoop.

However, this time Zhang Shun is full of confidence, because "Lu Xiangsheng" is his man.No matter how cunning and sophisticated that Hong Chengchou is, he certainly never imagined that he was almost at the end of his rope, and he still had a "leisure boy" outside.

Of course, Hong Chengchou, governor of the five provinces, is equally confident.Originally, according to his plan, the officers and soldiers were to show weakness to the enemy, and let the "shun thieves" see the hope of victory, so as to lure the thieves to leave the city to fight in the field.

It's just that he never expected that he hadn't started to "show weakness to the enemy", but was suppressed and beaten by the thieves.

Although the thief's combat power was beyond Hong Chengchou's imagination, it was a good thing for his plan.

Now his back-handed general Shaanxi General Zuo Guangxian and Lintao General Wang Chengen double-teamed him from left to right, he wants to see how long the thief can last?Not to mention that there is "Lu Xiangsheng" who can rush to the battlefield at any time.

It's just that Hong Chengchou waited for a long time, but he couldn't hear the good news, so he was somewhat anxious.He couldn't help asking: "How is the battle going?"

Left and right heard the words and quickly responded: "Just ordered the soldiers to look up and look up. Cao Wenzhao is still blocked by the earthen wall, and it is difficult to make an inch. And Zuo Guangxian and Wang Chengen are also restrained by the thief's side car, which is also useless. !"

Hong Chengchou took a breath, and muttered to himself with some doubts: "Although the thief is brave, he is obviously at a disadvantage now. If he had placed his hope on Cao Wenzhao to defeat our army's middle army, he has failed to succeed, and was defeated by our army again." Flanking left and right is the right way to survive with a short tail, so why don't the Shun thief retreat? There must be something wrong in it!"

The left and right aides couldn't help laughing and said: "The supervisor is worrying too much. I heard that the Shun thief was just a baby for two years. What kind of art of war does he know?"

"It must be that they are rampant when they are young, and women's wealth is allowed to be taken by them. I don't know the heights of the heavens and the earth!"

"That's true!" Hong Chengchou nodded, and couldn't help agreeing, "A little beggar, who hasn't eaten a few full meals, now has delicacies from mountains and seas, gold, silver and jewels in his hands, silk and satin on his body, and fat swallows and thin rings on his side. , It’s inevitable that I’m flustered, I don’t know what my surname is!”

Hong Chengchou was poor when he was young, and he suffered a lot. After going through untold hardships, he finally became a member of the party.So he quite believed in the saying that "a thousand gold can't buy a young man who is poor", and he had a bit of contempt and hostility towards Zhang Shun, a young man with high ambitions.
