Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 373 Huang Zhong's first show, the control between advance and retreat
In the evening, outside Jiangyi city.

A camp has already been established in the wind and snow.

Although the time is very tight, the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army are very diligent in this aspect. In addition to using local materials, there is a forest next to them for logging, so they built it very quickly. In one afternoon, the front of the camp was also built. formed a prototype.

The camp faces east, the gate is directly facing Jiangyi City, four gates are built on the left and right, and a river is behind it as a natural barrier. Although the surrounding wooden piles and fences are intermittent, they have formed an effective defensive circle.

As long as they are given another day or two, they can build a well-formed camp here, form enough defense force, and gain a firm foothold outside the city.

This camp looks to take shape.

In fact, many defenses have not been established, it is a paper tiger.

As night fell, in the camp, braziers were burning among the vertical and horizontal tents, and under the interval, yellow scarves flags were flying in the wind. The whole camp seemed very quiet, only the footsteps of patrol soldiers.

main account.

Standing with a tall body like a tiger, Huang Zhong looked at the military performances in his hand. It was his first time to lead troops. There were too many things that he had to deal with in person. Arranging defenses, establishing logistics lines, and counting soldiers and horses... ...one item after another is enough to make him useless.

"It's really not that simple to command an army!"

Under the flickering light of the oil lamp, he rubbed the bridge of his nose to dispel his tired look.

The leader of a party is not just a simple battle on the battlefield. If he wants to lead troops, he must learn many, many skills. The simplest thing is to learn to understand every soldier under his command. Command like an arm.

"Fortunately, Yang Feng and Han Xian have good abilities!" Huang Zhong looked at the news that the soldiers on the left and right were about to play, he breathed a long sigh of relief, and said secretly: "Your Majesty is right, at this time we can only Use them, never kill them, only they can display the strength of Baibo Yellow Turban!"

Tatata! ! ! !

At this time, the sound of horseshoes sounded, knocking on the ground, causing the ground to shake a little.

"kill!"

"kill!"

The monstrous shouts and killing sounds continued in an endless stream, echoing under the dark night sky.

The leader of Xiliang was Li Que. Li Que personally led [-] elite soldiers to attack, and left behind the main force to support him. Therefore, although this was a sneak attack, it was a well-prepared sneak attack.

"Report!" A former battalion soldier rushed into Huang Zhong's camp.

"Say!"

Huang Zhong opened the curtain of the tent, raised his head slowly, and looked ahead. The direction of the gate was already full of flames. Horseshoes, figures, and weapons were fighting in the sea of ​​flames. He knew that this should be a surprise attack from the Xiliang army. .

When he just set up camp, he had already thought that if it was him, he would also launch a surprise attack, not because he wanted to win the first battle, but more probably as a test, the Xiliang army was testing their main force.

"Report to the general, the Xiliang cavalry has already rushed in, and the commander of the former battalion, Yang Xin, is asking for help!"

"Order the front battalion to retreat and abandon the gate!"

"promise!"

The orderly led the way.

Huang Zhongyi stood in front of the tent with vivid eyes, watching the battle in front of him. The battle was very fast and chaotic. It was not clear how many people came in, but the front camp was already covered by the fighting.

"Uncle Zhong, you guessed it right. They really came to attack at night. I'm going to notify the left and right wings to come for reinforcements!" Zhang Ning changed into a black dress, and he didn't know when he appeared in the In front of Huang Zhong, watching the battle ahead, his beautiful eyes flickered with a chill.

"No!"

Huang Zhong waved his hand: "Your Highness, they are not here to attack at night, they are probing. At this time, we must calm down and tell Yang Feng and Han Xian in person that no matter what happens in the middle camp, they are not allowed to interfere. Start to shrink your troops in all directions, and you will never be allowed to attack without my order!"

"Okay!" Zhang Ning took a deep look at Huang Zhong when he heard the words, and finally nodded. His figure passed by, and he went to persuade the two coaches in person.

"Want to test my strength?"

Huang Zhong stared ahead, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth: "I want to see how courageous you are, come here!"

"exist!"

"The front battalion retreats another 300 meters, withdraw and let them in to fight!"

"promise!"

Another order sent by an orderly to ride his horse to the front battalion.

"Continue to retreat 300 meters? Isn't this giving up the entire front camp?"

The former camp owner was a little surprised when he heard this.

This general is Yang Xin, Yang Xin is a member of the Yang Feng family, and he is also the commander of Yang Feng's lineage. , there are Korean families, and more are young and strong recruited from Baibo Valley, and he led two thousand elites to serve as the front battalion of the Chinese army.

"Marshal, shall we obey orders?" The left and right generals looked at the broken gate and asked in a low voice.

"listen!"

Yang Xin didn't think about it for too long. Even Yang Feng and Han Xian had already respected him. Naturally, he didn't dare to challenge Huang Zhong's majesty. You know, this is a strong man with superb martial arts, and the strong will win people trust.

The Yellow Turban soldiers in the front battalion retreated while fighting.

For half an hour, the two sides fought, and the fewest corpses on the ground that stepped forward were those of the Yellow Turban Army and some of the Xiliang Army. The Xiliang army took it.

"Something is wrong!"

Li Que is a cautious person. After beheading two yellow turban soldiers, he raised his head and looked around, reined in his horse, and said, "They were already prepared!"

"Already prepared?"

"It seems to be!"

"As soon as they came in, they retreated!"

The Xiliang generals looked at each other, each of them stopped in their tracks.

"It seems that they have already guessed that we want to attack at night, so they have prepared their pockets, and want to lure our lone army to go deep, and then go in, and the left and right wings will pounce on us, and we will lose our way!"

Li Que looked at the direction of the Yellow Turban Army's middle battalion, where a battle flag was erected, the god of the yellow sky, the battle flag with yellow characters, there was a trace of unwillingness in his eyes, but more fear.

"General, what should we do now?"

A general from Xiliang asked.

"Get out!"

Li Que judged the situation: "Taking down the Yuanmen can already dampen their morale and prevent them from setting up traps inside. Let's retreat first!"

"promise!"

Although the generals were somewhat unwilling, they still took orders one by one.

The Xiliang army came and went quickly, and just after taking down the gate, they withdrew, leaving only corpses on the ground, and the smell of blood permeated the gunpowder smoke...

Half an hour later, the Yellow Turban Army returned to the front camp to clean up the battlefield.

Huang Zhong walked on the messy battlefield, looked at the burned tents one after another, looked at the corpses that had lost their breath, and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes: "It's still careless!"

Although he was prepared, he still underestimated the lethality of Xiliang soldiers and suffered a lot.

"General Huang!"

"General Huang!"

Yang Feng and Han Xian came, arched their hands, and saluted respectfully.

In the army, Huang Zhong had no position, but Zhang Ning was the commander of Qu, and gave Huang Zhong the position of the general of this battle. They naturally regarded Huang Zhong as a general, so they flattered him as a general.

"Tonight is not over yet!"

Huang Zhong said calmly: "They will come again, and if they don't know where they will appear next time, they won't be reconciled if they can't figure out our strength!"

"What does the general mean, they will attack our wings?"

A cold light burst out of Yang Feng's pupils, and he said gloomyly: "It's just in time, I just want to compete with them, and I will take revenge for us when Qu Shuai was killed!"

In the first battle, the Xiliang army wiped out Mrs. Guo, and they also fled back to Baibo Valley with their last breath, which was regarded as a shame.

"no!"

Huang Zhong said: "We must show weakness, we cannot take the initiative to fight!"

"General, we will suffer in this way!" Han Xian said with some dissatisfaction.

"Yes, you will suffer!"

Huang Zhongdao: "But if we want to achieve our goal, we have to pay a price. If we can't lure them out to fight, we will have no chance to fight them when they are safe in the city!"

Yang Feng and Han Xian looked at each other, a little helpless, but had to admit that what Huang Zhong said was the truth.

They can't even match their military strength. If they attack the Xiliang army with the help of the city wall, they will undoubtedly lose.

"Also, after the news, don't forget that Linfen still has a part of the Xiliang army. If they come and attack us, we will suffer a lot!" Huang Zhong reminded.

"understand!"

The two nodded.

After a battle in the first half of the night, the unfinished camp was full of holes.

In the second half of the month, the peaceful atmosphere was quickly broken.

"kill!"

"Kill in!"

"Xiliang Erlang, I am invincible!"

The front battalion was prepared, but unexpectedly, countless Xiliang troops rushed out from the direction of the left and right wings, and drove straight in. In less than an hour, the camps on the left and right wings were burned down.

"I can't stop it!"

"withdraw!"

"Retreat to the center camp!"

"Steady, don't mess up the formation!"

After a while of fighting, the morale of the Xiliang army was strong and brave, while the Yellow Turban army was forced to face the enemy and retreated steadily. Most of the soldiers quickly retreated to the direction of the middle camp, abandoning the camps on the left and right wings, and exchanged space for rest time.

But before dawn, the Yellow Turban Army finished its reorganization and when it wanted to counterattack, the Xiliang Army retreated again at this time, and withdrew quickly, without any sign of muddy water, they came and left in a swarm.

After a whole night, the camp of the Yellow Turban Army was reduced to ruins, and the defensive positions that the soldiers worked so hard to build during the day were all destroyed. The casualties of the soldiers reached as high as a thousand soldiers. down.

early morning.

Early in the morning, there was no wind and snow, and there was still a ray of sunshine in the sky. A round of red sun was blocked by thick clouds and mist, but the light it emitted had already penetrated these clouds and mist, and shyly reflected on the ground. superior.

"General, when the Xiliang army came in, the main force I had gathered should not be exposed!"

"But we have caused a lot of casualties even if we are prepared, which is not good for morale!"

Standing under the tent, Yang Feng Hanxian was not in a high mood, and reported the battle situation last night with some sighs.

"Order, the entire battalion withdraws and retreats ten miles!"

Huang Zhong looked at the map in his hand, pondered for a long time, and gave an order.

"Ten miles back?"

Yang Fengdao: "In this case, we will withdraw from the scope of Jiangyi City?"

"Just get out!"

Huang Zhong looked far away, staring at a troop deployment map on the desk, and said in a deep voice: "According to the time, the Xiliang Army in Linfen should have arrived. Once surrounded by them, wouldn't we be lost?" The control of advance and retreat, whether to advance or retreat, must be in our hands, so that we can hold them back!"

This is his first time as a general, leading an army of [-], and he is under a lot of pressure.

But after the battle last night, he didn't have that tense and oppressive feeling. He liked the control of the entire battlefield in his hands as he did last night, as if he was born to belong to the battlefield.

After some discussion, the Yellow Turban generals began to see each other for a long time.

An hour later, the sun broke through the heavy fog and slowly rose. The winter sun gave people a kind of warmth, the warmth in the cold wind.

At this moment, the Yellow Turbans withdrew their troops.

The whole camp started to move, the cavalry retreated first, the main force was in the middle, formed a formation, and retreated slowly, and Yang Feng personally led [-] main forces to cut off the rear.

On the top of the city of Jiangyi.

Li Que and Jia Xu stood side by side.

"Are you sure their military strength is not as strong as it seems?" Jia Xu squinted, looking at the Yellow Turban Army who was withdrawing troops outside the city, and asked in a low voice.

"Should be sure!"

Li Que rang out the night attack from last night, and said: "When I went in, they were indeed prepared, which shows that they had expected that we would attack at night, but they didn't set up a trap, and when I attacked the left and right wings, they It seems very flustered, and I can say with certainty that their strength is definitely not many!"

When Jia Xu heard this, his eyes flickered, and he began to think about the strength of the Yellow Turbans.

Li Que continued: "In fact, Linfen's soldiers and horses arrived behind them smoothly, joined forces with our soldiers and horses, and formed a pincer attack on them. I think we can eat them directly and take Baibo Valley directly. We are more advantageous, Baibo Valley has been run by Mrs. Guo for many years, and there are definitely a lot of reserves, if it is not a last resort, I still think that it should not fall into the hands of the Huns!"

"Having said that, I still think there is something wrong with their initiative, so we have to look at this matter!"

Jia Xu was very careful: "Keep staring at them first!"

"All right!"

Although Li Que was somewhat dissatisfied with Jia Xu's cautiousness, as a general under Niu Fu's command, he still trusted Jia Xu, a military adviser under Niu Fu's command.

At noon, the Yellow Turban Army retreated to a hill named Lengshui Mountain ten miles away, and set up camp.

This time the camping was very casual, and it was more for the soldiers to rest on the spot. They didn't even set up the tents, but relied on the terrain around the hillside to form an offensive and defensive camp.

"Report to the general, the scouts just came to report that the Xiliang Army appeared twenty miles behind us!"

"It's not too late!"

Huang Zhong squinted his eyes and stared at the map, a thought suddenly appeared in his mind.

A battle plan took shape in my mind.

After thinking about it for about half an hour, he summoned the generals of the Yellow Turbans to discuss the army in the camp.

"I have a plan, maybe we can win a lottery!"

Huang Zhong said: "But take risks!"

"adventure?"

There are more than ten Yellow Turban generals, the leaders are Yang Feng and Han Xian. When Huang Zhong said this, there was no sound on the spot. Many soldiers looked at them. Their attitude is the decision.

"Adventure is okay!"

Yang Fengdao: "We are short of troops. If we don't take risks, how can we win? If the general has a good strategy, which can make our soldiers vent their anger, I will definitely obey!"

"Well, from now on, everyone above the battalion commander must obey my military order. Anyone who disobeys the military order will be executed!"

A scorching light appeared in Huang Zhong's pupils.

There is no chance now.

Now is the chance.

He can lead the army.

He can use his talents.

He must seize this opportunity.

He wants to tell everyone that he, Huang Hansheng, is not just an ordinary man, he can also strategize on the battlefield and become a commander in chief.
