Chapter 107 Guangyan City

Outside Yanmen Pass at dawn, thousands of figures stand tall.

The old general Zhang Zhong stood at the door, holding a big wine bowl in his hand, and bowed to all the sons one by one. One was to see off the sons who were about to go on an expedition, and the other was to celebrate their triumphant return in advance.

After leaving the pass, the army marched westward all the way, and within a few days, they went down to four counties in the south of Xihe County.

The Xianbei people did not have too many troops in Xihe County, and Qin Zhao himself was a well-known general with rich combat experience, and his methods and schemes emerged endlessly, and the remnants of Xianbei in each county were quickly eliminated.

Further on, there is Guangyan City, an important town in Xihe County.

Guangyan City was built in the early Qin Dynasty, and it has been some years.Although it is not as important as the military towns of Luoyang and Xuzhou in the Central Plains, it is definitely one of the best in Bingzhou.

Even Zhang Yi, who had never been familiar with marching formations, knew that after Qin Zhao captured Pingding County, he stood still and waited for the army to arrive, and was trying to find a way to attack Guangyan together.

However, on the day when Pingding County was captured, Qin Zhao summoned all the generals and officers under his command to the county government, and said straight to the point that he was going to take down Guangyan.

Qin Zhao's official worship is now General Mingwei, and his power and status are far from comparable to those of ordinary generals. If he wants to move up, he will be a general with the title. General Zhengbei has been vacant for many years since the old general Zhang Zhongjin was named General Zhenbei.As long as he can win Guangyan City this time, he will definitely make a great contribution, and it may not be impossible for him to be named General Zhengbei.

What's more, Qin Zhao was full of disdain for the Xianbei people.In his view, the Xianbei people are just a group of undeveloped savage monkeys.

When all the generals under his command learned that Qin Zhao wanted to attack Guangyan, their faces changed drastically.They all knew that they were able to take down the four counties in the south in such a short period of time, not because they were brave and invincible, but because those counties and villages had been looted by the Xianbei people long ago, and the number of Xianbei soldiers left in each county was less than a thousand. , but Guangyan City is different.

Apart from the strong fortifications, it is said that Guangyan's general guarding the city is a disciple of Fu Tuhe, the wise man of Xianbei, and the defenders in the city are all Xianbei elites, numbering [-].

If they only rely on their strength, it is impossible to attack Guangyan by force.

"No general!"

Joining the army, Gu Yu was the first to stand up to stop him. He bowed to Qin Zhao, and then said: "General, the task given to us by the Governor-in-Chief was only to clean up the four counties in the south, and he did not order us to attack Guangyan. Moreover, Guangyan City was easily destroyed. It is difficult to defend, and the Xianbei people in the city have many soldiers and generals, so if we want to attack by force, we have no chance of winning!"

All the generals whispered to each other and nodded in agreement.

After Qin Zhao heard the words, he frowned and snorted displeasedly: "Zhang Yi is just a literati, what does he know about marching and fighting!"

Although the governor has great administrative power in the states, he still doesn't have much status in the military camp.

Civil and military discord, despise each other, from the temple to the states and counties.

"I know what you are worried about, so don't make any noise, just listen to me first."

Qin Zhao glanced at everyone, put his fists on his waist, and looked like a black bear, only to hear him say in an orderly manner: "In my general's opinion, taking Guangyan City is as easy as pie.

Xianbei people are simple-minded and not good at using military tactics, this is one of them.

Xianbei people are good at attacking but not good at defending, and they have never had any experience in defending a city.

The morale of our army is high, and the soldiers are united as one. This is the third.

With these three points, the Xianbei people can be undefeated! "

"But the general..."

Before joining the army, Qin Zhao rudely interrupted it. He suddenly raised his voice a few degrees, and said loudly to the generals: "As the saying goes, soldiers are precious and fast, and this time the opportunity to fight is fleeting. , what do you think?"

"I would like to listen to the general's order!" All the generals stood up and clasped their fists together, responding in unison.

After this brief meeting, Qin Zhao led the Bingzhou Army out of Pingding and began to march in the direction of Guangyan City.

It took less than two days to reach the outside of Guangyan City, and set up a big village twenty miles away from the city.

As soon as the tent was set up, Qin Zhao summoned the generals to his tent again.

Qin Zhao, who was wearing dark gold armor, was sitting at the commander's seat. He took out a command arrow from the command tube on the desk in front of him, glanced at the generals in the tent, and finally set his sights on a tall general, " Lu Bu, I ordered you to fight against the city tomorrow, do you have the guts?"

Lu Bu, who was sitting at the end of the tent, did not expect Qin Zhao to be the first to call his name, and immediately got up and cupped his fists: "Why don't you dare?"

Seeing Lu Bu go forward to receive the command arrow, the rest of the generals were full of gloating.They all know the tricks in it. Qin Zhao had proposed marriage to the Yan family at the beginning, and wanted to marry the young lady of the Yan family, but the result was naturally a mess.But what surprised everyone later was that the daughter of the Yan family would be married off by a small captain. They are also often laughed at.

Qin Zhao is one of them.

But at this time, Qin Zhao didn't have the idea of ​​coercing the public to report his own interests. Now he only wanted to win Guangyan City and make his first great contribution.

He handed the commanding arrow to Lu Bu, and he did not forget to add: "Remember, this battle may be defeated but not won."

Lu Bu, who took the command arrow, frowned. Why?

"The general knows that you have always been brave, but this time you just follow orders." Qin Zhao didn't explain too much. When the Xianbei people went south, he was not in Bingzhou.From Qin Zhao's point of view, if he had been there, there would be no chance for Lu Bu to show off his prestige. He is the one who should be called the parachutist.

After so many fights on the battlefield, I have only heard that victory is allowed and defeat is not allowed. There is no reason why defeat is not allowed to win.

Although Lu Bu was unwilling, he could only nod his head in response.

Qin Zhao then drew out two command arrows and clicked on the names of two people, "Zhou Tang, Wang Chong."

"The last general is here!" The two generals in the front stood up and clasped their fists.

"You two each lead 2000 troops to ambush the left and right. When the Xianbei people pursue them, you will take the opportunity to cut off their retreat and make them never come back!" Qin Zhao's eyes were shining brightly, as he had seen the scene of the Xianbei people lying in ambush .

"Design." The two roared loudly, if they don't understand Qin Zhao's intention, they are really fools.

Qin Zhao went on to order some things, and after making sure everything was safe, he taught the generals to disperse.

The next day, Lu Bu led the Chongqi Battalion to fight at the foot of Guangyan City, and the soldiers behind him also loudly abused the Xianbei people for their cowardice and incompetence, and dared not fight.

It is conceivable that the lion was laughed at by the rabbit.

The Xianbei generals on the city tower couldn't sit still anymore, and they all went to the main general to challenge them one by one.

As the commander-in-chief of the entire Guangyan City, Kaqi is still leisurely flipping through the bamboo slips of the Han people in the mansion at this moment, reading them with great interest, as if he has never worried that the Han people outside the city will attack the city.

As early as yesterday, Xianbei spies reported to the city that the Han army was camping outside the city.

After a brief understanding of Kaqi, there was nothing else to say except to order to strengthen the guard.

At this time, all the generals came to ask for a battle, but Kaqi didn't nod, but just smiled and said: "There is such a saying in "Zuo Zhuan" of the Han people, 'One effort, then decline, and three exhaustion', let the Han army cool first, grind Grind their arrogance."

"General, aren't we being too cowardly? We're just a group of cowardly Han people, what are you afraid of him doing!" A sturdy Hu Han yelled dissatisfied.

Kaqi flicked through the bamboo slips with his right hand, looked at the man sullenly, then at the crowd, and then said: "I said it yesterday, if there is no order from me, whoever dares to go out of the city to meet the enemy will be decisive!"

The generals gritted their teeth and resented in their hearts, but they could only nod their heads in agreement, this Kaqi is a master of what he says.

After two consecutive days of fighting to no avail, the Xianbei people in the city were like tortoises, shrinking their heads, letting themselves be abused, but not going out of the city gate to fight.

All of this was obviously beyond Qin Zhao's expectations, and he had no choice but to find another way.

At night, Qin Zhao sat in the main tent and was thinking about the countermeasures to break the city with his subordinates.

At this time, a soldier came to report, saying that he had caught a Xianbei man's reprimand and asked how to deal with it.

A general waved his hand impatiently, and scolded: "You bastard, if you bother the general with such a trivial matter, just cut it off."

The soldier was reprimanded for no reason, naturally depressed in his heart, he lowered his head and prepared to retreat.

"and many more,"

Qin Zhao stopped the soldier, the candlelight was dancing in his eyes, he pondered for a long time, and then said in a deep voice: "Whether we can capture this Guangyan City or not depends entirely on this man!"

(I'm sorry for keeping everyone waiting for so long. I recently wrote a promotional manuscript for the factory workshop, and the company vision for the end of the year. It's all different, so sad!)
