Great Military Division

Chapter 171: The Jiangdong Tiger Kills and Punishes Hearts, Decisive!

The next day, early morning.

The rooster announces the dawn, and the sky is full of dawn.

Guangchengguan.

Xu Rong took the formation map drawn last night and compared it with the real objects in the city.

Although Feng Yan and Xu Rong have tried their best, there are still many mistakes.

Xu Rong seized the time to memorize and revise.

When the formation under the city was over, he temporarily put away the silk scroll, ready to devote himself to the battle.

"Attack~~~"

Boom!Boom!Boom!
The golden drum shook the sky like spring thunder rolling.

Yuan Shu, Yuan Zhong, and Chen Yi's soldiers and horses attacked together, and the vast army of soldiers and horses rushed towards the city like a tide, and the strong shouts flooded the Guangcheng battlefield in an instant.

Arrows all over the sky were intertwined into a net, constantly shuttling over the heads of both sides. The soldiers who attacked the city were killed every time, and fell one after another in a pool of blood. They died on the spot and died.

Xu Rong held a long sword and commanded with determination.

He seems to have successfully mastered the siege rhythm of the soldiers outside the city. As long as the soldiers outside the city have the idea and tendency to charge, there will be a wave of arrows raining over them with precision.

The suppression effect of the arrow diffuse was almost played to the extreme by Xu Rong, even the experts in the Military Division Alliance couldn't help but marvel at it, and even feel ashamed.

after all
In modern society, arrows have become an academic research topic, and it is impossible to use them effectively like in ancient battlefields. At this moment, Xu Rong's use of the suppressive effect of arrows also gave military experts a refreshing feeling.

Xu Rong!

It is worthy of being a fierce general who can defeat Cao Cao and Sun Jian.

This person may be mediocre in terms of bravery, but in terms of command, he is definitely not inferior to anyone.

Even the famous historical general Zhang Liao couldn't help being shocked by it, feeling that he and Xu Rong had learned a lot.

Due to Chen Wang Liu Chong's supervision, the battlefield has entered a white-hot stage from the very beginning.

but
The more this is the case, the more flaws can be exposed.

On the top of the wall, Xu Rong carefully observed the opponent's attack rhythm.

Although there were more soldiers attacking the city today than yesterday, judging from the performance on the battlefield, Xu Rong could clearly feel the reluctance of the soldiers attacking the city, as if they were forcibly brought up to die.

This state is not sustainable in the league!
Especially when one side is supervising the formation, one side is attacking, and the other side is watching the show.

This is a very big test for the sincere unity of the alliance members.

After all, it is difficult for the side that is always consumed to swallow their anger. They will definitely take turns to attack in order to ensure fairness, so as to maintain the alliance.

In other words.

The team responsible for guarding the formation at the rear would have to be transferred away sooner or later, and such a formation could never be manipulated by ordinary people. Once the opponent left, it would be the day when Liang County cavalry attacked and their own team would turn defeat into victory.

Xu Rong was full of confidence, and shouted loudly: "Brothers, we are the elite of the Northern Army and the strongest army of the Han Dynasty. Hold on to them all, and don't let a thief come up."

"Sound Battalion!"

Xu Rong shouted at the top of his voice, pointing his sword forward: "Let the arrow~~"

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
Another wave of arrow rain came one after another, covering the soldiers in the city, and hundreds of enemy soldiers fell one after another.

You know, this is even though the opponent has dispersed their positions in advance, and they still shot and killed hundreds of enemy troops, which is enough to prove that the Shesheng Battalion's control over the diffusion has reached a heinous and terrifying level.

"Damn!"

Outside the city, Yuan Shu gritted his steel teeth and watched his soldiers lying on the ground one by one, his heart felt as if he was bleeding.

Although with the help of Lu Guoxiang Chen Yi, the enemy forces at Guangcheng Pass were too strong. Even after two hours, they still failed to attack the top of the city, let alone enter the city.

in contrast.

The death of each soldier caused Yuan Shu's endurance to continue to decline.

After all, he only has [-] soldiers and horses in his hand. If he kills all of them, he will have no right to speak in the alliance. In this way, wouldn't he become a soft persimmon at the mercy of King Hongnong?
Even if you are from the Yuan family, so what?
Even if you have the support of your disciples and old officials, so what?
Blacksmith need its own hardware!
If your own strength is not enough, no one will take you seriously!
Yuan Shu is very clear about this point.

If he didn't have a solid base of strength, it would be impossible for him to take the command from King Hongnong.

Glance back.

this time.

Liang County's cavalry didn't even show up.

Did the opponent give up the tactic of sneak attacking our army's rear?
What kind of bullshit horns are actually intimidated by these refusal horses, chariots, and cowardly soldiers?

Yuan Shu's heart was full of galloping horses, his face was bulging with anger, and he was furious.

Yuan Zhong hurriedly comforted: "Don't worry about the road, just wait."

Chen Yi also heaved a sigh of relief, and hurriedly stopped: "Yes, we will definitely win, just wait."

No matter how Yuan Zhong and Chen Yi tried to comfort him, Yuan Shu was still furious. He pointed at the soldiers behind who pretended to be in full force, but in fact they acted as if nothing had happened, and asked in a low voice:
"So and so, can you bear it?"

"This"

Yuan Zhong and Chen Yi looked back at the army formation, heartbroken.

Without comparison, there is no harm.

Even though they knew King Hongnong's intentions, they still couldn't calm down in the face of the damage to their soldiers and horses.

Yuan Shu was even more furious, and took the opportunity to sow discord: "We will fight to the death and lose troops, but they can sit back and enjoy our achievements for nothing!"

"It's the road."

Lu Guoxiang Chen Yi asked tentatively: "With such an formation, you and I may control it? What if Liang County cavalry really comes to fight and raid the rear of our army, and you and I are invincible. Wouldn't it affect the overall situation?"

"So responsible!"

Chen Yi took a deep breath, staring at each other with burning eyes: "Maybe you and I can afford it?"

Yuan Shu snapped back without hesitation: "Hmph! Can't you learn it? King Hongnong is only fifteen years old. I don't know where to find a formation to bluff people. Even he can learn it. Can you and I learn it?"

"This"

Chen Yi and Yuan Zhong frowned.

It sounds reasonable.

If you can learn the formation, you can naturally replace King Hongnong.

In this way, if the soldiers and horses are kept, they can also resist the coming generals. Isn't it the best of both worlds?

Just as Yuan Zhong and Chen Yi were hesitating, Yuan Shu added fuel to the fire: "I only know that if this continues, all our soldiers and horses will be wiped out, but King Hongnong's soldiers and horses are not damaged at all. .”

"This is not fair!"

The sharpness of the words is like a sword, hitting people's hearts directly.

Yuan Zhong and Chen Yi nodded slowly to show their agreement.

Only then did Yuan Shu feel relieved, and the corners of his lips raised slightly: "After today, let's go to Governor Xu, I think he has a lot of experience in this formation, if we can get his help, why not learn the formation and replace it."

Yuan Zhong took it for granted: "It makes sense."

Chen Yi breathed a sigh of relief: "You can give it a try."

*****
Yingchuan.

Yingshui trickles.

On the river, merchant ships lined up and moved forward slowly.

In the middle of the team, on the deck of a large cargo ship, Sun Jian held a cowhide map in his hand, looking around, feeling refreshed: "Now, we have entered the hinterland of the hills, and Yangcheng is not far ahead."

"Yes!"

General Huang Gai took a deep breath, and then exhaled slowly: "As long as you pass Yangcheng, turn to the Shaolin River, and continue to go northward for a day, you can reach Zhiyuan Pass."

Although Yingshui runs through Yingchuan County, it does not start from Yuyuan Pass in Songshan Mountain, but in the direction of Yangcheng. The main river has turned to the west, and the Shaolin River flows into Yingshui as a tributary.

"Ok!"

Sun Jian put away the cowhide map and grinned lightly: "I think that when I accompanied Zhu Zhonglang to conquer the Yellow Turbans, I passed by here, and I am quite familiar with this place."

"did not expect!"

Sun Jian stared at the rolling hills on both sides, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart: "It is fate to come back here to fight again in such a capacity today."

"General."

As soon as Huang Gai opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Sun Jian: "Gong Fu, don't speculate, I am satisfied to be able to follow Your Highness. Although His Highness is young, he is mature in mind, and he is much stronger than Zhang Wen and Zhu Jun."

"Now, if we can help Your Highness kill Dong Zhuo, His Highness will surely be able to return to the palace. This is a god-given opportunity for you and me. I, Sun Jian, will go all out. How dare I ask for extravagance."

"This battle!"

Sun Jian glanced back at Huang Gai, and said solemnly: "It is our response to His Highness, even if it is only as a surprise soldier, we still have to show our prestige."

Huang Gai grinned and clasped his fists together: "Don't worry, general, we will do our best."

"Running water~~~"

"The merchant ship ran into water~~"

"."

At this moment, there was a cry from the rear team.

Sun Jian hastily turned his head to look back.

However, on the large merchant ship in the rear, the soldiers on duty were restless and kept shouting on the deck: "The big thing is bad, the merchant ship has run into the water, please dock quickly!"

"Damn!"

Sun Jian's thick eyebrows were raised upside down, and he flew into a rage.

He recognized it immediately.

In the running merchant ship, what was transported was exactly the military rations needed for the march, and there was a lot of it.

If all the grain falls into the water, it will be moldy within two days.

In this way, it will inevitably affect the next battle.

The military is in a hurry.

Sun Jian can't send people back to ask for food, can he?

He was anxious and shouted sharply: "Quick, hurry to the shore! Quickly to the shore!"

but
Before the words were finished, I saw that the hull of the ship was leaning slightly, and at a speed visible to the naked eye, it gradually lost its balance, and finally fell into the clear water, completely losing the chance of landing.

"hateful!"

Sun Jian gritted his steel teeth and said sharply, "Who inspected the ship before departure?"

Huang Gai cupped his hands: "General, it's Zu Mao."

"Zumao?"

He is also his confidant and beloved general.

Sun Jianqiang suppressed his anger and waved his hand: "Order the team to come to the shore and send someone to call Zu Mao to me."

Huang Gai nodded: "No."

"quick!"

Immediately, Huang Gai turned his head and shouted: "Send the order to dock."

Soon.

The team stopped advancing and slowly approached the shore.

Zu Mao came in a hurry: "General, the general knows his mistake."

Sun Jian stared: "Before leaving, this general repeatedly told me that all merchant ships must be carefully inspected, and they can only be used after the verification is correct, especially grain cargo ships."

Zu Mao looked troubled and frowned: "General, I don't dare to quibble, but I did check it carefully, especially the cargo ship transporting grain, I checked it three times."

"But who would have thought"

Zu Mao felt aggrieved, and always felt that something was not quite right: "Such a large merchant ship, at the beginning of its manufacture, issues such as balance and water leakage were taken into consideration. How could something happen so easily?"

suddenly!

Sun Jian remembered that before leaving, King Hongnong had repeatedly told him to check the boat carefully.

Before, he thought it was just a routine matter, but looking at it now, it seems that this matter has ulterior motives.

Could it be that the perpetrator appeared in the team?
Thinking of this.

Sun Jian's brows stood on end, furious, and he immediately ordered: "Grand Fu, quickly bring all the soldiers guarding that merchant ship over here, the general must put them in order!"

"But the general."

Huang Gai cupped his hands and reminded: "We can't afford to waste time, if we miss the opportunity to fight, I'm afraid it will implicate His Highness."

Sun Jian took a deep breath: "Don't worry, this general knows what to do, you just do it."

"This"

Huang Gai had no choice but to bow his hands: "The last general will obey."

Soon.

The soldiers on the overturned merchant ship were all escorted to the front.

Sun Jian's piercing gaze swept across the crowd.

He didn't waste any time, and said bluntly: "Before the army set off, every ship has been carefully inspected, and there is no possibility of capsizing, especially the grain merchant ship."

"But."

Sun Jian stared carefully at the terrified crowd, trying to find clues from the expressions of the other party: "After only two days of marching, such a disaster happened. What is the intention of the perpetrator? This general is too lazy to care about it."

"Now, give the perpetrator a quarter of an hour to stand up and confess his guilt, otherwise you will all be punished and beheaded for public display, so as to make an example of others!"

"what?"

All the soldiers below were stunned, their eyes full of horror:

"General, the villain is wronged."

"We didn't destroy the merchant ship!"

"The merchant ship capsized, and we are also victims."

"."

Sun Jian ignored them, turned his head and ordered: "Wen Sheng, send someone to watch them. When the time is up, if no one takes the initiative to confess their crimes, they will be killed!"

Zu Mao bowed his body and cupped his hands: "No."

By now.

Spending time looking for the murderer will definitely delay the war.

Sun Jian could only take this extreme method to find out the murderer and stabilize the morale of the army.

If they refuse to admit it, it doesn't matter, they are all killed, and the entire army can be deterred in a short period of time.

In this way, even if there are perpetrators mixed in, they dare not act rashly.

After all, the lives of all crew members are at stake, and everyone must guard against each other.

How the truth is is not important.

What Sun Jian needs is a stable military spirit.

a long time.

Zu Mao returned and clasped his fists together: "General, no one pleads guilty, all of them will be executed."

Sun Jian seemed to have expected it a long time ago, and nodded: "Tell the head to the three armies. If this happens again, we will be punished for the same crime, and you will be killed."

Zu Mao said sonorously, "No."

Immediately.

He personally led more than ten people, carrying the head, and hurried across the river bank: "The general has an order, if there is another case of ship capsizing, it will be punished as the same crime, and all the officers and men on board will be killed."

"The general has an order, if it happens again"

"."

Sun Jian returned to the merchant ship, stood on the top of the cabin, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Brothers, our army went up the river to demand Dong's righteousness. Although there is a small disturbance today, it will not shake our army's determination."

"Listen to me!"

Sun Jian shouted loudly: "If we retreat now and miss the opportunity of the battle, we will definitely engage in military law, and we cannot escape death. It is better to continue forward and conquer the Yuanguan Pass. This general will personally ask for credit for you. All the gains will be given to the army!"

"Kill~~"

"Kill~~"

"Kill~~~"
