Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 1324
There were all kinds of chaos in Xiangguo this night, Shen Yun didn't know clearly.Although Zhang Tan, the surrendered general, also said that the Shi brothers had deep grievances, and Shi Xuan suddenly led his troops back to the country, there must be conflicts between them.

But Shen Yun couldn't believe it after all. Zhang Tanxin hadn't landed for long, and even though he had made a lot of contributions all the way, he still couldn't reach the level of confiding in his heart.

On the other hand, Shen Yun didn't feel that the Shi Brotherhood was so ignorant of the general situation. They still fought with each other when they knew that there were enemy troops near Xiangguo.

Even if the Crown Prince of Jie Kingdom, Shi Sui, did not know the situation of his subordinates, Shi Xuan was very clear about it. He retreated from the front line of the southern Hebei battlefield, and was entangled all the way during the escape. The combat power is absolutely strong, and it cannot be regarded as an ordinary army.

Under such circumstances, the two bastards of the Shi family still have a little bit of normal thinking. Even if there were any grudges before, they should more or less bear with each other for the country and fight the enemy together.

In the final analysis, Shen Yun is still cautious under the rough appearance. He is very clear that his miraculous achievements seem to be brilliant, but he is greedy when he should be greedy, and he is not greedy when he should not be greedy.After all, no matter how brave the Fenwu army is, the number of people in the heart of the Jie country is too small. If the choice of advance and retreat is affected because of greed for great achievements, the entire army may be wiped out.

Even if Shihu of Xindu didn't have time to react, one must know that the Fenwu army would go south to Fangtou after that, and they still had to pass through another war zone where the heavy army of Jie State was assembled, that is Maqiu of Yedi.Ma Qiu has been confronting and attacking Fangtou's Xie Ai in recent years. Although he has not performed very well, his strength can prevent Fangtou's influence from spreading further into the country, and his strength should not be underestimated.

Therefore, for this trip to Xiangguo, Shen Yun's position is to shake mountains and shake tigers, and he doesn't hope that with more than [-] light cavalry, he can directly shake or even conquer the capital of Jieguo.

Because it was this night, after the Fenwu army finished cooking, except for a hundred scouts, the rest of the soldiers all went back to their homes early to recuperate.Because tomorrow Shen Yun intends to launch a substantive attack on Xiangguo, taking advantage of the fact that Shi Xuan's army has not arrived for a long time, and the defenders in the city have not been able to reach coordination, to complete the strategic intention of this trip, and then return to the south as soon as possible.

But this night was destined to be unsettled. After Shen Yun took off his armor, he had just fallen asleep when there was an urgent military report, saying that most of the Jie troops in the city had gathered in the south of Xiangguo city.

Being in the enemy's territory, Shen Yun naturally did not dare to relax, and immediately got up again and put on his armor to summon all the generals, including the surrendered general Zhang Tan and the Ma clan from the Xiangguo family who helped them.

"It seems that the thief army should have detected our army's movements."

No matter how smart a person is, it is impossible for the two armies to determine the meaning of each other's actions when there is no real contact between the two armies. In particular, all the generals in the military know that Shi Xuan's troops are approaching Xiangguo, and the enemy army in the city knows their movements. It is a matter of course.

"Is there a need to start a night battle?"

Another person looked at the general Shen Yun, eager to try.Although they have traveled thousands of miles along the way, the Fenwu Army has selected brave soldiers and arrived at the outskirts of Xiangguo a few days in advance. These few days of recuperation are enough for the soldiers, and the most important thing is that their horsepower has also been fully developed. recover.

After pondering for a while, Shen Yun waved his hands and said: "Let's explore again, there is no need to fight urgently. After all, our army is far away. Even if we explore a little in the near future, we are not as familiar with the terrain as the enemy army. Night battles may not be beneficial."

In the current situation, a hundred tricks are worse than a clumsy one. If one is too aggressive, the boastful act that was about to be achieved may turn into a stupid act of committing suicide.Under the condition of allowing advance and allowing retreat, Shen Yun was not in a hurry to risk the lives of his soldiers before there was a conclusive opportunity to grasp it.

"The situation tonight is indeed a bit strange!"

The name of the local Ma clan in Xiangguo is Ma Xing. Although he does not have the vision of Zhang Tan who was a senior general of Jieguo and can understand the internal entanglements of Jieguo's high-level officials, he has lived in Xiangguo city all year round, and he is not aware of the current situation. Quite sensitive.

After asking for permission, he took a step forward, pointed to the city defense blueprint of Xiangguo spread out on the case, and sketched: "In the civil war in the middle of the country in the past, this area of ​​Nancheng was the most fiercely attacked and defended area. There are many lanes and houses here. There are also many private villas outside the city. During the chaotic war, many of them were dilapidated. Afterwards, the city was abandoned and never repaired. In the city, the forbidden army is the first sharp division. If it is really deployed to meet foreign enemies, the south of the city will definitely not be a good guard. , advance and retreat are not calm..."

Through Ma Xing's explanation, all the generals in the tent could hear the meaning.The outer city in the southern section of Xiangguo City is chaotic and disorderly. Even the army of Jieguo itself can hardly move in between.

Therefore, this place is mainly used as a buffer zone for external defense. It is a normal choice to block the enemy's attack with messy houses and humble lives. It is not the best arrangement to deploy elite soldiers here.

Although Shen Yun disagreed with launching a night attack immediately, at this moment, he was actually eager to move. He got up and straightened his armor, and said with a smile: "Since Jie slaves are not very peaceful, everyone should sleep less tonight, although you can't attack rashly. , but also requires careful monitoring.”

All the generals took orders together, and after each of them returned to the army, they first gathered the soldiers, and then hundreds of scouts went out from the camp, scattered in the suburbs of Xiangguo, and watched from all directions.

As for Shen Yun, he also went out of the camp in person, led Zhang Tan, Ma Xing and a dozen of his own soldiers, whipped his horses, and even rushed to the south of Xiangguo City, less than a mile away from the enemy camp.

With such a short distance, it is impossible for the Fenwu Army's investigation to hide from the Jie Army.Since the leader Wang Lang was appointed to such an important position by Shi Hu, he is naturally a man who knows the soldiers. Before that, it was only because of the suppression of the prince Shi Sui that he didn't even dare to send out scouts easily. Spread the scouts widely.

Shen Yun and the others rode their horses all the way in the night, and encountered several Jie country scouts.The two sides didn't know much about each other, and their vision was limited at night. When the Jie army scouts on the opposite side asked for the password, Shen Yun and others had already shot or expelled them first. After rushing outside the enemy camp, they finally caught him. A few live.

At this moment, the Jie army in the enemy camp also noticed the existence of this group of wanderers, and responded naturally. Hundreds of riders rushed straight out, while Shen Yun and the others did not bother to fight, and retreated into the night with a few survivors.And the enemy army was probably also afraid of the unknown situation of the enemy, so they did not dare to attack on a large scale. Although dozens of cavalry were chasing after them, afterward, the Fenwu army responded to each other with loud arrows, and more than half of them were besieged and killed.

The Jie army naturally has similar means of night scouting and communication signals, but compared to the Fenwu army's sophisticated cooperation, the Jie country's forbidden troops who have stayed in Xiangguo all the year round are inevitably a bit unfamiliar.When the other Jie troops heard the news and rushed over, the guerrilla warfare in the night had ended, and the Fenwu army left the battlefield and rode their horses to the east of the city.

Zhang Tan followed behind Shen Yun all the way, witnessing with his own eyes the skillful collocation of the rangers of the Fenwu Army this night, and he was amazed in his heart.

Although he had seen it before, he lacked a clear comparison. Tonight, the Forbidden Army of the Jie Kingdom was still in his home field, and they were flexibly suppressed by the Fenwu Army in a small-scale fight, even if they were as skilled as the Fenwu Army. There are not a large number of brave rangers in the southern country, but at least it shows that in terms of high-end combat power, especially in high-mobility ranger battles, the Jie country no longer has an advantage.

As for Ma Xing, he was even more amazed.Although he is not a member of the army, as an ordinary person, he can still see clearly the direct outcome of life and death.

The performance of the Fenwu Army tonight has really overturned the long-held impression of the Southerners from Hebei, the so-called cowards on horseback and heroes on boats.The reason why the Jie Kingdom can still maintain its rule in Hebei despite the unfavorable situation is not unrelated to this general cognition among the scholars and people in Hebei.

They felt that no matter how fierce the Southerners were before, Hebei was an open battlefield after all, a place where cavalry galloped and fought for supremacy, and the Southerners were still slightly inferior to the Jie Kingdom, the old overlord of Hebei, in this respect.Once fighting across the river, Wang Shi may not be able to sing triumphantly as in previous years.

Including this Ma Xing, the reason why his family is willing to take refuge in Master Wang is also because Xiangguo is becoming more and more unable to stay. They hope that this opportunity can go far to Henan, but they dare not speak frankly about the advantages of the entire Hebei battlefield in the future. How bad is it.

Not to mention the feelings of these outsiders, the scouts of the Fenwu Army gathered news from each other after watching nearby, and felt more and more the strange atmosphere of the night in Xiangguo.These fighters have been in the most dangerous places all year round, and their eyesight and perception have been honed for a long time, not to mention the strange omens are so obvious now.

Shen Yun rode his horse around the city, looking at the brightly lit Xiaozhang City from the east slope of Xiangguo City, his original cautious thoughts gradually changed.But until now, he still has some hesitation: "The sons of the Shi family, are they really so ignorant?"

What happened afterwards, not only Shen Yun, but also the other Fenwu scouts who were lucky enough to see him were greatly surprised.That is, after the Shixuan troops outside Xiaozhang City received the supplies and subsidies in the city, instead of entering the city to defend them, they actually went all the way north!

If this move had the possibility of luring the enemy or receiving the fuze to send the capital's army south, then the army of Xiangguo City would break the dike and kill Xiaozhang City, which would be undoubted brotherhood.If even this can be regarded as a kind of temptation, then Shen Yun has to admire, these living treasures of the Shi family have spent too much money!

"General, let's fight!"

In the darkness, several riders rushed to where Shen Yun was, all asking for a fight.

Shen Yun also made a decisive decision at this moment, and ordered: "Return to the camp to announce, the troops will come out, and tonight will add another fire to this chaotic thief's lair!"

In fact, the soldiers of the Fenwu Army did not understand all the signs in Xiangguo City this night.Although Jiangdong was also very fierce in the early years, when the Fenwu Army was founded, the general had already dominated Jiangbei, especially after returning to the country to settle the chaos, he was already the No. The constraints also made it impossible for these fighting soldiers to understand the cause of the current chaos in Jie country.

But since Jie Guo committed suicide by himself, they naturally have no reason to stop it.More than [-] Fenwu troops were dispatched. They did not join the already extremely chaotic battle in the east of the city, but went straight to the south of the city, preparing to crush Xiangguo's only strong force at the moment, and then calmly sweep up the chaos .

But when they rushed to the south of the city, they found that the situation was different. The Jie Kingdom's forbidden army, which had just been deployed, retreated into the city at this moment, so that even the Fenwu army directly approached the city, but hundreds of scattered soldiers were sent out. Refusing to fight, this kind of reaction is simply ignoring the Fenwu Army!

Naturally, Shen Yun didn't know that Wang Lang knew that his son was directly stabbed to death by the crown prince, and was rushing back to help Jiande Palace, so of course he had no time to take care of foreign enemies like them.

The Fenwu army rushed forward and quickly killed the hundreds of Jie soldiers who refused to fight, but then they also faced an embarrassing situation, that is, most of the imperial guards of the country of Jie had withdrawn to the city, and these rangers also Difficult to continue the impact.

"Xiaomin, please lead a team of brave men, and go into the city to announce Wang Shixiong's majesty!"

That Ma Xing had sparkling eyes at the moment, with an excited look on his face.

On the other side, Zhang Tan's face was flushed with excitement at the moment, and he rushed to Shen Yun's mount and said in a hurry: "The imperial army retreated in spite of external disturbances, it must be chaos in the palace! The general should advance bravely as soon as possible!"
