The Three Kingdoms in the Ya Nei

Chapter 68: Nanpi Raiders

Outside Nanpi City, outside the tent of the Han army's central army, Yan Liang and Wen Chou stood with their swords.Fiction Rankings
Inside the big tent, Liu Zhang was wearing a red cloak, staring at a topographic map hanging in the tent.The thick black eyebrows are slightly frowned, and the red cherry on the golden pocket, under the reflection of the candlelight, is like a smear of red.

"My lord, Nanpi is the prefecture of Bohai County. The city has high walls and thick walls, and the inside is connected with ditches. If there is a strong attack, although there are few bandits, it will be difficult for them to come down suddenly. In the sense of hegemony, we should lure them out of the city. Fighting is the best policy."

In the big tent, Zang Ba and Xu Sheng stood aside, seeing Liu Zhang just staring at the map without saying a word, Zang Ba couldn't help but speak. [

Marched last night and arrived at the city this morning.Seeing that the city gates were closed, Zang Ba was not in a hurry to attack the city. Instead, he set up camp first and sent someone to inform Liu Zhang later.This is the first battle of Liu Zhang's army, and there must be no mistakes, otherwise, the morale of the army will inevitably drop.Therefore, Zang Ba is very cautious.

"Well, what does the text mean?" Liu Zhangwen looked away from the map after hearing Zang Ba's words, turned around and asked Xu Sheng with a smile.

Xu Shengwei hesitated, then bowed and said: "General Xuan Gao's words are reasonable. However, the whole county of Bohai Sea was destroyed by the Yellow Turbans. There are more than a thousand soldiers in Dezhou in the northwest, and the Zhengxi Plain is where we met last time." Yu Du's army. Although it was defeated by the lord's plan, there are still [-] people. The last general is only worried about staying here for too long, and he will be surrounded. Now our army is only a thousand or five. Weaknesses are so disparate that they cannot be worn out. Therefore, in the meaning of prosperity, the most important thing is to fight quickly."

Liu Zhang nodded noncommittally, but sighed slightly in his heart.

Both of them are good generals, but after all, they are a little short of fire.The focus is only on whether to play fast or slow, but it lacks some perspective on the overall situation.There is still a shortage of people around me.Without the assistance of a strategist, even if he is divided into eight parts, it is also free.

Thinking in his heart, his eyes returned to the map, and after looking at it for a while, he said in a deep voice, "Zang Ba."

Zang Ba frowned, stepped forward and crossed his hands to listen to the order: "The last general is here."

"There is a county named Cang County in the north of Nanpi, and a mountain named Dongli on the west side of Cang County, which is the only way to go from Dezhou to Nanpi. You take your troops to lie in ambush in the mountains, and if you see Dezhou soldiers moving, intercept them halfway. Shengzhi will take advantage of the momentum to take Dezhou first, and then come to help me. If no one comes to help within two days, we will retreat here first, do you understand?" Liu Zhang turned and ordered.

Zang Ba was taken aback for a moment, but then bowed to accept the order: "Here!"

"Xu Sheng!" Liu Zhang shouted again.

"The end is here!" Xu Sheng stepped forward.

"There is a big river on the southwest side of this place, called Gourd Dang. Take your troops and divide them into two groups. Is that so... Do you understand?"

"Here!" Xu Sheng took the order.

"You go." After Liu Zhang ordered, he waved his hands and let the two go.

After the two of them left, they raised their voices and shouted: "Come on, order Yan Chuan to come and see me quickly."

The messenger outside shouted his promise and left. Not long after, the tent door was darkened, and Yan Chuan stepped in, dressed in armor, and bowed to salute.

Liu Zhang waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Nanhe, you set up all the baggage camps for me, and set up another camp in the southeast of this city. There are more straw people in the camp, and banners are planted all over the camp. Order 500 people from the rear army headquarters to line up War is called in front of the city. If the thieves are willing to leave the city, they can attack them. If they do not, there is no need to attack the city. You can just place patrols at the west gate. I expect people will be sent to break out of the encirclement for help. "

Yan Chuan was overjoyed, he quickly bowed to accept the order, and rushed out to dispatch troops.He was placed in the rear army, but he didn't expect that the front army and the central army were not going to fight for the first time, but the good job fell on him.

In his eyes, there are only two to three thousand thieves in Nanpili, and most of them are refugees who have never experienced fighting. They will be taken down after a few charges.The master is willing to let him fight, so he is partial to himself. [

Mmmm, after all, the elder aunt is optimistic about the person, but this elbow knows how to turn inward.It's just that they are not allowed to attack the city, but it is uncomfortable.But fortunately, seeing that the credit was his own, it was worth it.Yan Chuan muttered secretly in his stomach, and his heart blossomed with joy.

Liu Zhang was in the tent listening to people shouting his horses outside, thinking about it just now Yan Chuanxi's beard was raised, he couldn't help shaking his head and smiling wryly.

How could he not know that if Nanpi attacked hard, he would be able to defeat him, but how could he have so much capital to fight now?What's more, surrounded by a group of enemies, only Nanpi was captured, and he was surrounded by people from the outside, and the imperial army couldn't come for a while.If he really went to occupy Nanpi like this, he would make himself a shackle.

Therefore, Nanpi wants to fight, but he fights without fighting.

The thieves in the city saw that their own army was coming, but they dared not go out to fight, which meant that they had no courage.As long as he is persecuted a little bit, it will give him the mentality of being powerful, and he will inevitably ask for help from Pingyuan or Texas.

Then, I can take advantage of the time when the other party doesn't know my own details, and alternate between the false and the real, in order to cut off the threats on the periphery first, and then turn around and attack with the momentum of the big victory. Taking Nanpi will be as easy as pie.

The peripheral reinforcements were cut off, which also eliminated the lone army occupying Nanpi.It is absolutely difficult to make such a calculation if the military strength of the entire Bohai County cannot be taken into consideration.

Therefore, although he understood Yan Chuan's thoughts, he could only shake his head with a wry smile.With a force of less than 2000 people, it is already stretched to resist the opponent's [-] or [-] troops.However, it is necessary to divide the troops and move, in fact, it is also a dangerous move.

"Victory is a great victory, and I will be able to use this as a capital to report victory to the court, but if I lose...no, I will not lose!" Liu Zhang stared at the corner of the blue sky outside the big tent, muttering to himself language.
