Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

When Guo Shao woke up, there was a noisy noise in his ears, with a "wow", the curtain hung at the door was suddenly opened, and his eyes were shaken by the bright light. Luo Mengzi's voice said: "Big Brother, it's sunny!"

After a while, Guo Shao reacted, hurriedly woke up with his clothes, and when he walked out of the tent, he saw people and horses moving around, and a round of sun hanging in the sky in the east. Not only that, but the sky was blue, the sky and the earth were clear, and yesterday's low and suppressed gray clouds have long disappeared. A rainbow arc hung on the blue sky, and the orange streamer was very beautiful in the sky.

"It's beautiful!" Guo Shao showed a smile on his face.

Jingniang came over and said with joy: "I didn't say anything wrong, wait for it to clear."

"What does that word say, thank you Queen Mother, thank God..." Guo Shao laughed. Jingniang was speechless, her eyes raised and rolled her eyes.

Seeing Guo Shao standing at the door, the generals gathered here one after another.

At this moment, a voice outside the fence yelled: "Report! Good news!" A messenger hurried over in the wet mud, handed a memorial report, and shouted: "Dong Qianfeng report, Shui The army broke through the Qu Gate and defeated the navy who blocked the river by the Shu army. Dozens of warships in our army have entered the open water."

"Haha..." Guo Shao raised his head and laughed. Looking back and seeing all the generals excited, he said, "The whole game of chess is alive. Don't talk nonsense, order the whole army, the army will immediately set off, and go to the city of Kuizhou!"

...

In Kuizhou's army, dozens of civil and military personnel gathered in the lobby. Above Wang Zhaoyuan was walking back and forth quickly, his movements made everyone nervous.

"Trash! Trash..." Wang Zhaoyuan was so angry that he pointed at all the rants and cursed, "How could the Zhou Jun navy break through the Qu Men? Where is the navy commander? Has he been persuaded to surrender and helped them to tug the boat to release him?"

A military commander said with grief and indignation: "Wang Jianjun, my navy commander commanded the above 22 people, and 18 people were killed in the battle, because everyone knows that Qu Men is a matter of safety in Dashu, and there is no death battle! Such casualties, even if you lose you. You can't slander them like this!"

"Do you also know that the Qu Men is at stake for the safety of Dashu?" Wang Zhaoyuan's face was blue and white, "Qumen is easy to defend and difficult to attack. There are warships stationed on both sides of the strait day and night. How can you send Zhou army warships over? What boat can pass through the rapids?"

The military commander said: "The dead soldier of the Zhou army did not care about his life. In the middle of the night before, he walked barefoot in the rain on the fiber track... The slender trail made by the tracker on the stone wall attacked my water village and was annihilated by our navy army. One batch burned my village, causing a large number of warships to be washed downstream by the river. Only a few ships of the Zhou Jun navy were towed upstream, and my reinforcements were besieged by the navy, but they were unable to attack for a long time and delayed the fighter..."

At this moment, Gao Yanjun persuaded: "The matter is over, it's too late to regret... Besides, the sky is clear. Even if the water is not breached, Zhou Jun will come to the city. The Wang Jianjun ordered all the troops to shrink in the city and defend it. It's time for the city."

"If the Yangtze River waterways and land routes fall into the hands of the Zhou army, what is the use of our army holding on to the isolated city?" Wang Zhaoyuan kept walking back and forth, with no blood on his face. Where can I still have the magnanimity of the command?

Gao Yanjian said: "Now that we have gathered our troops, Kuizhou's troops should not be less than 20,000. It is still very useful to place it in this key place. Kuizhou is a major town on the East Road of Dashu, and we can accumulate no less than 300,000 dendrobium. Eat for two years. There are city fortresses, enough food, and you can't win a field battle. Why don't you defend the city?"

Wang Zhaoyuan said: "If the fortifications can be maintained, Zhou Jun should be blocked in Wu Gorge now! How did Wu Gorge Fort be broken? Zhou Jun has..."

After listening to the discussion, everyone was panicked. Everyone asked about its power and usage, but no one could explain it clearly. Dao is only the gunpowder used by Taoists to refine alchemy. According to the records in ancient books, it is recorded that alchemy made the roof collapsed and burned. It is probably that thing... But the battle of Huainan Shouzhou, the senior officials in Shu have heard about it, knowing that Things can blow up walls.

Besides, I tasted it once in the Wu Gorge Shu Army not long ago, and now I am convinced that the existence of this thing in the world can break through the fortifications.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Wang Zhaoyuan asked Gao Yanjian coldly: "Gao Jieshuai still wants to defend the city?"

Gao Yanzhen said: "In this world, one thing drops one thing, as long as we take precautions early... Besides, there is no other way than defending the city."

Wang Zhaoyuan disapproved: "The Zhou army came from a long way, and has been trekking on the Shu Road for nearly a month, and then came along the mountain road. He must be exhausted; and the Great Shu Army is waiting for work in Kuizhou City. , Taking advantage of Zhou Shi’s unsteady footing and horrible forces, defeating our army, the outcome is still unknown!"

"Wang Jianjun still wants to attack the Zhou army. Is there a chance of victory?" Gao Yanjian was shocked and hurriedly dissuaded him.

Wang Zhaoyuan said coldly: "If we follow Gao Jieshuai's meaning, we will be defeated if we are trapped in a lonely city! Seize the opportunity to make a decisive battle, and there is still a chance. Everyone, the art of war is to die and live, should we sit and wait for death or fight? "

Gao Yanjian was good at persuading Wang Zhaoyuan at first. Seeing his decision, Gao Yanjian was also annoyed: "Wang Jianjun is going, you go, I can't afford to lose that person."

"That Gaojieshuai guards the city, and acts as a tortoise in the city, watching me how Wolong fights!" Wang Zhaoyuan said.

…Both sides have scattered a large number of scouts, and Zhou Jun is already approaching, the mutual movements are all clear at a glance.

"Wang Zhaoyuan is going out of the city for a decisive battle?" Guo Shao was very surprised when he heard the news, and then went to the scout he had seen in front to ask the Shu army in detail. At this time, Li Gu also arrived in the army and said: "The Shu army may think that our army has a chance to attack from a long distance."

At this time, the Zhou army was already advancing towards Kuizhou along the Yangtze River to the southwest. Some troops suggested that they should be stationed for two or three days before the decisive battle.

Guo Shao said: "Everyone knows that waiting for work at ease has an advantage, but if you follow the rules rigidly, you may miss a fighter. In case Wang Zhaoyuan figured it out, you have to defend the city... It will be more difficult to attack the city. At least it will take more time. More people die."

In order not to affect the confidence of the soldiers, he didn't mention the shortcomings of bombing the city with gunpowder... to keep the soldiers confident, which is more beneficial to the military spirit. But it’s actually not that easy to blow up the city. First of all, it depends on the soil quality and groundwater conditions in Kuizhou. Not all places can successfully bury gunpowder under the city wall; even if it is successfully blasted, the black_gunpowder has limited power and can only be exploded. A gap. As long as the defenders are properly prepared, they may not be able to conquer the city by blasting the gap...Even in the era of artillery, it is not easy to attack the city. It is impossible to attack without gunpowder.

"Tomorrow morning without stopping, advance to Wang Zhaoyuan's department, and then you can fight decisively!" Guo Shao said instantly.

The generals clasped their fists and replied: "Here."

"An hour later, the commanders and generals were summoned to the Chinese army's large account overnight to discuss matters and deploy tomorrow's military affairs." Guo Shao said again, waving his hand, "It's gone, you guys eat dinner first."

Guo Shao didn't spend time specifically on eating. He took two pieces of wheat cakes and asked people to serve a bowl of soup while reviewing the terrain around Kuizhou. He also ordered that all the scouts returning today be called to the Chinese Army's big account to speak... He ordered an hour later to discuss matters, just to prepare his own strategy first.

I did not expect that Wang Zhaoyuan would be eager to go out to battle, and because he had just arrived near Kuizhou, he was indeed a little unprepared. Fortunately, Kuizhou is the important place. When the army was still in Jingzhou, spies came here to inquire about intelligence, so I drew several pictures and were prepared for the general situation.

The route of Zhou Jun’s main force to Kuizhou was a little bit winding, but more flat and spacious. They came from the mountain road and crossed the Yingxi River (Meixi River), and then went south along the beach of Yingxi River, where they merged with the Yangtze River; then they turned and continued to attack Kuizhou along the north bank of the Yangtze River to the southwest. The terrain on the riverside is slightly flat and open; farther to the north, far from the Yangtze River, there are all mountains and rocks. Although the mountains in this area are not too high, they are all mountains and only small roads.

Probably Guo Shao understood the terrain by reading the old newspapers before, but now he needs to understand the situation in more detail on the battlefield. Only through the dictation of the scout, there is no time to observe in person in advance.

"There is a village there?" Guo Shao took a sip of soup, put down the wheat cake, and asked the scout, "How many houses and how many people are there?"

The scout frowned and recalled: "Ten buildings...or only six or seven, there are tiled houses and thatched houses, not many people. There is a spacious dirt road to the south."

Guo Shao raised the pen while writing and painting, and asked, "Who has been to this village going west?"

Another person stepped forward and clasped his fist and said: "There is a low mountain that stretches to the north, high in the north and low in the south. The slopes on the south are relatively gentle. Except for a few pieces of wheat fields, the slopes are full of shrubs and weeds. There are some single-family houses under the barren sandy land. Climbing up to the ridge, you can see the Kuizhou Tower... By the way, I also ran into a farmer and I caught him and asked. He said that the mountain was called 'Sanma Mountain'."

Guo Shao was very interested in this Sanma Mountain, and asked the other two people, and immediately muttered: "If I were Wang Zhaoyuan, I would choose the battlefield on this hillside, spacious and open, and occupy the high place in advance. ."

The riverside terrain on the east side of Kuizhou is only a few miles wide and ten miles long, but Guo Shao drew several pictures and recorded a lot of the news he heard in his pamphlet ~www.readwn.com~ It is impossible for the scouts to write articles about what they saw and heard, but it is still clear to ask them to tell them what they have seen and heard.

The bonfires in the barracks are gradually getting lighter, and the night is falling, and the sky is full of stars. But the day was not over, and the Chinese army slammed into the drums, and there were many soldiers coming one after another. Everyone untied their swords and placed them on the wooden stand at the entrance of the tent, and entered back and forth inside.

The tent was not spacious. It was crowded with dozens of people and gradually became crowded.

Many lights were hung on both sides, and the picture in front was hung up. Guo Shao quickly walked into the big account, and he heard Shi Yanchao impatiently saying: "Guo Du check, finally you can kill a game, let me play forward!"

Guo Shao said straightforwardly: "I have more important credit for you, and the striker will let Yang Biao go."
