The Invincible Summoning of the Three Kingdoms

However, Gao Shun continued to shake his head and said: "No, our troops are too weak, even if we use the city to resist the city, we can't get much benefit from Cao Cao, Liu Bei and other princes. Besides, our current There are too few war horses, and it is impossible to form cavalry, and I am afraid that I will only be slaughtered by others!"

After a pause, Gao Shun smiled again: "Besides, our main task is to harass, not to fight with the princes. We are still the same as before, trying every means to prevent Cao Cao, Liu Bei and others from transporting food and grass and recruiting troops. , as long as we block these, then the princes will naturally have their lords to deal with!"

Gao Shun's words immediately caused many generals present to nod their heads again and again, but some people wanted to get more credit, even if they whispered: "General, if we can find a way to defeat Liu Bei, Cao Cao and others, why not do it? Are you going to do this kind of hard work here?"

"Bitter haha?" Gao Shun glanced at the general, and then said, "I never felt any pain, our mission is to harass, and the mission of the army led by the lord is to kill the enemy and seize the city. The location is not well positioned, even if you grab a lot of credit, but the overall situation is out of control, what can you do?”

Hearing Gao Shun's words, all the generals present nodded again and again. Gao Shun was about to say a few more words when he suddenly received a letter from the messenger. After Gao Shun opened it to check, he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Everyone, since you want to attack the city so much, let's attack the city! It's just a coincidence that now the lord orders us to take over the cities around Fuyang!"

"General, didn't you just say that I'm afraid it will attract the army of the princes?" Someone was taken aback, and then he cupped his hands and said: "The general army is right, although we have a lot of people, it is not Cao Cao and Liu Bei at all. If the opponents waiting for others rashly attack the city, even if they take it down, they may not be able to hold it!"

"Of course I am clear, but the strategist said in the letter that the princes are now afraid of the lord's army, and would never dare to divide their troops rashly." Gao Shun looked at the man, and then smiled again: "If they divide their troops to come Attack us, and then the lord's army can take the opportunity to go south and defeat them one by one!"

Everyone nodded again and again. Since Guo Jia and Zhuge Liang have already said so, then they generals can just do it.This is not because these generals are arrogant, but Guo Jia's countless strategies in Liu Rui's army for a long time have convinced these generals completely.

Just like at this moment, Guo Jia said that Cao Cao, Liu Bei and the others did not dare to act rashly, and Gao Shun and others would definitely not regret or doubt. After Guo Jia's branch in the letter, he naturally understood the joints in an instant.

Seeing everyone nodding, Gao Chuan said with a smile: "Okay! Since the lord has already ordered and the military advisor has explained it to us, let's take this opportunity to fight a few more cities!"

Everyone is extremely happy, just as the general who wanted to make a contribution to the cause said before, these generals, who do not want to attack the city and plunder the land, but because of the lack of strength of the rebel army in the rear, it has never been able to do so, but now , Gao Shun's words made them have more thoughts.

"General, the late general invites the battle, let the late general be the vanguard, and it will definitely give the general a good start!" Some generals hurried out, clasped their fists and looked at Gao Shun.

"General, I was the first to attack in Fuyang last time, and I also asked to fight!" Seeing someone asking for battle, more generals became anxious when they arrived.

Gao Shun waved his hand with a smile on his face and said, "Don't fight for it. This time, I will personally lead the army to attack the city and prepare for it to go back sooner. If anyone fails to do anything, don't blame my military law for being ruthless."

When the generals saw Gao Shun like this, they couldn't help shaking their heads, but they were equally excited to go back to prepare.Not long after, Gao Shun's mighty uprising army turned into a torrent, heading straight for those cities that they wanted to defeat but couldn't. , , .

The reason why Gao Shun personally led the army to attack the city was not because he was greedy for power and power, but because he was worried about these soldiers and horses.

Liu Rui's men and horses were naturally the most elite soldiers and horses, but many of these men and horses following Gao Shun were peasants who had just thrown away their hoes.

Gao Shun naturally didn't need to be afraid of small-scale operations such as robbing food and ambushes. Anyway, everyone was in the wilderness.As long as you destroy the opponent's food and grass, you will win.

However, this is not the case in this siege battle. Even the regular troops under Cao Cao, Liu Bei and others, if they suffer too many casualties during the siege, there will be many things such as morale collapse.

Moreover, a siege is not something that can be conquered by leading a large army in a hurry. If there is no suitable siege equipment and methods, it is just sending people's heads under the enemy's city walls.

It is for this reason that Gao Shun must personally command the battle in order to be able to relax.Furthermore, this time Guo Jia proposed several cities to Gao Shun as options, and even wrote down the importance of these cities one by one.

At this moment, Gao Shun was preparing to take the lead in attacking Xiangxiang City.

This Xiangxiang city is between the three cities of Caiyang, Huyang and Tongling. As long as this city is built as a bridgehead, Gao Shun can rely on this Fuyang, whether it is going north, west or south, there are enough many choices.

"General Gao, after two towns ahead, we will arrive at Xiangxiang City. Shall we let the army rest for a while?" Chasing ordered on the side.

Previously, Chasing Ming and Gao Shun led troops and horses to help rebels in various places. Later, when there were more troops, they joined forces and Gao Shun led the army, while chasing was responsible for many matters in contacting the rebels in various places.

Hearing Zhaiming's words, Gao Chuan nodded slightly and said, "Brother Zhaiming, in this Xiangxiang Township, how many aristocratic families funded our troops and horses?"

"There are more than [-] large and small families in Xiangxiang City, but only six of them have provided us with people, and they are all small families, and five have provided us with money and food support." Chai Ming said, paused, He whispered again: "In Xiangxiang City, several families have a deep connection with that Sima Yi, so now they are very close to that Liu Bei!"

Gao Shun nodded, and then said with a smile: "It's okay, after we knock down this Xiangxiangcheng, let's see how Liu Bei can get food and grass from here!"

The two were chatting about the Xiangxiang City in front of them, but the army had unknowingly walked to a small town in front of them.

It was not far from Xiangxiang City, so Gao ordered the army to rest here for an hour by the way.As for Gao Shun, he called out the many generals under his command.

Looking at the generals in front of him, Gao Chuan said, "This attack on Xiangxiang is our first battle in the true sense. Do you have any confidence?"

"Please order the general, the last general will definitely be the first to win the city head of Xiangxiang for the general." A general came out of the queue and said loudly.Qiankun Tingshu Network www.qktsw.com

"General, please give directions, the city gate of Xiangxiang is wrapped on the body of the last general. I learned the method of making a siege hammer from Master Lu Ban before, and then I will see how I can break the city gate of Naxiang Township with one blow. Open!" A general came out and patted his heart and said.

For a time, there were endless battles and methods, Gao Shun nodded with satisfaction, and then said with a smile: "Everyone, when the various families joined us, they all brought the most elite soldiers and horses in the family with them. Come here, this time in the Xiangxiang battle, I plan to use these men and horses as the backbone to form a siege team, I wonder if you have any objections?"

Gao Shun's words changed the expressions of some of the generals present. These people were people from various families who had defected to Gao Shun before, and the soldiers and horses they brought were much better than ordinary peasant soldiers.

"Everyone, please rest assured that Liu Bei, Cao Cao, Sun Ce, Lu Bu and others did not leave too many troops behind this Xiangxiang town, but if we can't take this Xiangxiang town in one go, I am afraid we will help to defend the city. The morale of the army, so in this battle, we can only win but not lose!" Gao Shun looked at everyone present, and then asked, "Do you have any opinions?"

All the generals nodded silently. Those generals in the noble family also knew the importance of this siege. Even if someone stood up and said: "General, please rest assured, I will definitely live up to the mission!"

Hearing the assurances from the generals, Gao Shun nodded, and then said, "Go on, after the army is rested, prepare to attack Xiangxiang City!"

It didn't take long for the entire army to set off again, and after the rest, all the soldiers got rid of the exhaustion of the long-distance running, and they all embarked on the journey again full of energy.

After arriving at Naxiang Township, just as Gao Shunhe had expected, the guard in this city was an experienced general appointed by Sima Yi, and he had a lot of experience in guarding the city.

It's just that Gao Shun now has [-] troops under his command, and under the attack of so many troops, it only took half a day to tear seven or eight holes in the city wall of this Xiangxiang city.

"General, Xiangxiang City is already in our possession!" Chasing Ming looked at Gao Shun with some excitement and said with a smile.

"But the casualties this time are a little too big!" Gao Shun shook his head in dissatisfaction, and then sighed: "Although the combat power of these noble soldiers is higher than that of ordinary peasant soldiers, they are still in the face of the princes. When you were in the regular army, it was still not enough!"

Chasing life also nodded helplessly, and then whispered: "We have been busy training for a while now, and it will probably be a little better in the future!"

"Yeah, we can only hone these men and horses through constant battles!" Gao Shun said, and it was precisely in this matter that the city wall of Xiangxiang Town was already occupied by Gao Shun's men and horses, and it didn't take long for The city gate was also taken down.Seeing this scene, Gao Chuan said with a smile: "Let's go, let's go to this Xiangxiang City first, and we will send troops to attack Tongling City tonight!"

"In such a hurry, I'm afraid the combat power of the soldiers will decline!" Chasing looked at Gao Shun in surprise, not understanding why Gao Shun was in such a hurry.

Gao Shun smiled mysteriously, and then said, "It's okay, the gentry families in Tongling City have all joined us, and the guard in the city has already sent a letter, expressing their willingness to dedicate the city!"

After being stunned for a moment, Fu Zhang laughed and said, "Okay! Good! This way, our territory behind the enemy will be more secure!"

Gao Shun was noncommittal, but his mind drifted further afield.He has now occupied Fuyang and this Xiangxiang city. If he wins Tongling City in the south, he can send troops to attack Caiyang in the west or Huyang in the north, and even expand his sphere of influence to the farther west. Xiangyang.At that time, it will be able to completely block the connection between Liu Bei and others and the rest of Jingzhou. , , .
