Chapter 178: Counter-Killing Under the Tower
Late at night, when he first entered the sea, Yuan Yao's camp was silent.
At this time, Yuan Yao convened the generals to discuss the big tent.
Yuan Yao knelt in the camp, and next to him, Zhang Xun, Wu Anguo, Dong Xi, Huang Yi, and strategist Liu Ye gathered in the big tent.
The blood of the generals was churning, they knew that after a while, they would carry out a full-scale counteroffensive, and they would wipe out the Jiangdong soldiers and horses that made them "flee in panic" today, especially the Dong attack among them
If Sun Quan knew that the general in his previous life treated him like this at the moment, I don't know if our Sun Quan children's shoes would cry and faint in the toilet.
"Our war with Jiangdong has taken more than half a month, since our army snatched grain and grass from the mouth of the tiger in Anhui City, there will inevitably be a battle, and now the Jiangdong army has broken through, we can only take the initiative to attack to have the possibility of success" Yuan Yao said very sincerely to the generals, "I don't tell you whether this war will be won or lost, but at this moment, Anhui City will fight with us inside and outside, what do you have to say?"
"Your Majesty, while Jiangdong has not yet taken over Wancheng at this time, let's attack." Dong Xi took the lead in exporting, "Raiding is willing to be a pioneer." But after finishing speaking, Dong Xi felt that something was wrong, he was just a general who had just surrendered today, but he opened his mouth like this at this moment, and he was too ignorant of other generals.
Sure enough, Wu Anguo, Zhang Xun and the others all looked at him with interest, their expressions were very disdainful, don't you treat us as air
Dong Xi was angry when he saw this, but he couldn't show his feelings, so he hurriedly wanted to excuse himself.
However, Yuan Yao's next words surprised everyone, and they were all Spartan.
"Okay, since the Yuan Dynasty is willing to be the vanguard, let you act as a vanguard and enter the city" Yuan Yao didn't care about Dong Xi's expression at all, let alone the expressions of other generals, he was Your Majesty, he was the lord, and he had the right to appoint generals
"Ah, what's the situation" Wu Anguo's face changed suddenly, although he didn't ask for battle, but in his eyes, he was the vanguard, and as a result, Dong Yuandai was killed halfway and robbed his vanguard, which made Wu Anguo very unhappy, so Wu Anguo couldn't help but ask out loud.
"Thank you, Your Majesty" and Dong Xi was overjoyed, Dong Xi said sincerely. At this time, Dong Xi knew what Gan Ning meant when he said that His Majesty was bold, and that he could appoint a water bandit who had just surrendered as the vanguard, and His Majesty's courage was really not comparable to ordinary people.
"Whoever of you has killed the most enemy generals will be the first to do so" Yuan Yao saw Wu Anguo's question, and couldn't help but look at Wu Anguo and chuckle.
"Yes" this time there was no objection from everyone.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Ye informed the generals of the strategy he had discussed with Yuan Yao.
10,000 soldiers and horses were divided into two routes, so that Wu Anguo led 3,000 soldiers and horses to feint to attack the west gate, and the headquarters took Dong Xi as the vanguard, personally led 7,000 soldiers and horses to the south gate, and the internal soldiers and horses of Anhui City and Yuan Yao discussed the matter, and the five thousand soldiers and horses in the city would open the city gate from the inside and let Yuan Yao's army enter the city.
After waiting for the inner gate to be opened, they rushed in.
Although the four gates of the Jiangdong Army were heavily guarded, it was more obviously the north gate, so Yuan Yao cleverly bypassed the north gate under Liu Ye's suggestion.
Although Yuan Yao's total number of soldiers and horses was only 15,000, far less than Sun Quan's 30,000 horses, Yuan Yao was not worried at all.
Although the morale of the enemy army was strong, there were 5,000 troops among them, and even if they were surrounded by combat strength, they were not afraid, and after the headquarters opened the city gates and set fire everywhere, the Jiangdong Army did not know how many main forces entered the city, and it was bound to fall into panic, and it was not the number of soldiers who could decide the victory or defeat at that time.
Dong Xi was the vanguard, leading 3,000 soldiers and horses, Huang Yi followed, Wu Anguo led 3,000 soldiers and horses alone, and Yuan Yao, Zhang Xun and Liu Ye were 4,000 soldiers and horses, two soldiers and horses attacked the city, and 5,000 soldiers and horses in the city were led by the captain, and after opening the city gate, they set fire to the city of Anhui, causing panic among the soldiers and horses in Jiangdong.
This is Yuan Yao's plan.
"Everyone, let's go" Yuan Yao shouted softly in the tent, once again mobilizing the emotions of the generals.
"Annihilation of the Jiangdong Army in one fell swoop"
"Annihilate the Jiangdong Army in one fell swoop" The generals were impassioned and shouted excitedly, they could avenge today's defeat and retreat, and their chests were full of fighting intent.
Liu Ye looked confident, and said eloquently, "Tonight, after our army quietly enters the city, the Jiangdong army is bound to be in chaos, if you can cut off Sun Quan's head or capture Sun Quan alive, it will be a great achievement."
The generals were even more excited, took the task, and after ordering the soldiers and horses, the 10,000 soldiers and horses in the camp tent were silent, and quietly attacked the city of Anhui.
The generals tried to be able to attack inside and outside, severely damaging morale, and after two big victories, the Jiangdong Army, which was soaring above heaven at the moment, fought a beautiful battle of annihilation.
Just when the guards of Anhui City were still immersed in such a beautiful battle today, the sound of Suo Suo outside Anhui City gradually entered people's eardrums.
On the wall of Anhui City, there are torches lit, but there is no awareness of the abnormal movement outside the city.
Sun Jing, who was holding a gentian bright silver spear, was patrolling back and forth on the city wall.
"Be vigilant, do you know" Sun Jing suddenly saw a soldier with a dazed expression and a weak spirit, and couldn't help but remind him, seeing this soldier who was in a trance, Sun Jing shouted loudly.
"General, you are guilty of despicability, please condemn the general" The soldier was also a bachelor, and when he saw that he was so unlucky to be named by the main general, he suddenly looked ashamed, and did not dare to face Sun Jing's gaze, but bowed his head and asked for guilt.
"Okay, don't blame yourself, everyone's spirits will be sluggish late at night, and it's not a big crime, but you're guarding the city at the moment, so you have to be vigilant and pay enough attention, you know"
Sun Jing didn't know that the confrontation between the soldiers and Wancheng for several days had already tightened their spirits, especially Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin's soldiers and horses had been marching fast, and their spirits were already sluggish, so how could they be harshly reprimanded. So Sun Jing patted him on the shoulder, with an encouraging look in his eyes, and said loudly.
"Don't worry, general, I will not let go of any trouble"
The soldier immediately straightened up, and cheered up his spirits.
Then, the wind blew and the grass moved outside the city
The soldier's pupils shrank, and after seeing Sun Jing's back, he shouted.
"What's the matter" Sun Jing frowned, feeling a little displeased that this soldier suddenly spoke.
"Look, General, no, listen, there seems to be a clattering sound outside the city," the soldier listened carefully with his ears pinched on, and then said with certainty.
"Hmm" Sun Jing was obviously stunned, and then looked carefully outside the city, sure enough, in the dark night, there was a strange smell in the low and silent night.
After Sun Jing stood for a while, he finally determined that the enemy army had attacked the city, and they had been deceived to the foot of Anhui City
"Someone is coming," Sun Jing hurriedly shouted, "Inform the second prince of the news of the enemy's siege of the city, and order the four gates to step up their defense," Sun Jing said to a herald on the side.
Then Sun Jing gave a military order. "Pass my military orders, prepare the bow and crossbow"
Dong Xi's vanguard finally entered the shooting range, and for a while, arrows flew at the head of Anhui City, and the sound of killing shook the sky
Sun Quan, who learned the news in a hurry, was furious, the west gate and the south gate were attacked, this Yuan Yao didn't put him in his eyes at all, he would attack the city at night, generally, the siege will be daytime, and at night it is either because of absolute self-confidence, or because he came to fill the corpse, in short, Yuan Yao's return gun caught Sun Quan off guard.
"Mr. Yuan Si" Sun Quan had no choice but to ask Gu Yong, in Sun Quan's eyes, Yuan Yao's move may have a deep meaning, otherwise, Yuan Yao just came to send people away.
At that time, Gu Yong thought that Yuan Yao was deliberately attracting the army to attack, so as to counterattack Jiangdong, so Gu Yong swore that Jiangdong soldiers and horses could not pursue, but at this time Gu Yong really understood what Yuan Yao meant.
"Could this be the strategy that Yuan Yao made at the beginning" Gu Yong muttered to himself, "Since the plan has been set up a long time ago, it means that Yuan Yao may have arranged a backhand a long time ago, so there is an internal response in the city."
"It's not good, lord, immediately send people to reinforce the four gates" Gu Yong was suddenly shocked, and at this time, the west gate and the south gate were all attacked, and I don't know what the situation of the other two gates is, whether Yuan Yao has ambushed soldiers, so it seems that not only the last 10,000 soldiers and horses to leave, but even the soldiers and horses that left before are one of Yuan Yao's plans, I don't know which side of Yuan Yao's army is the main force, so Gu Yong has to make the defenders in the city evenly divided into four gates.
"Pass my military order, and order Zhou Tai, Han Dang, Cheng Pu, Sun Fu and other generals to lead their soldiers and horses to Simen immediately to help in the battle" Sun Quan shouted, at this time he saw Gu Yong's expression, and knew that all that Yuan Yao did was just a strategy, and he, Sun Quan, fell for Yuan Yao's plan without the slightest reaction
Anhui City.
In a thatched house in the southernmost part of the city of Wancheng, all the Jiangting captains who had previously gathered in Wancheng had gathered.
Although 5,000 soldiers and horses were left in Anhui City, no one found any clues.
There is no way, even the eyeliner of the Shi clan has not been able to find out Yuan Yao's approach at all, and the soldiers and horses selected are all personally selected by Wu Anguo and Tai Shici, all of them are loyal or strong in Huainan, Sun Quan wants to find out in just two hours, which is tantamount to a fantasy.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Your Majesty has ordered me to wait for the hour to welcome the army into the city, and it is approaching the hour of the city, so all of us should be ready for battle," said a commanding lieutenant.
Then, the voice of Suo Suo came out, but due to the sudden battle outside the city, the soldiers of the night patrol in Anhui City were all ready to help, but they did not notice any movement between the dilapidated thatched huts.
The columns of soldiers and horses patrolling back and forth did not even expect that the enemy army would leave soldiers and horses in Anhui City, and a full 5,000 soldiers and horses
The generals had taken off their light helmets and handed them over to the people to hide from the world, and at this time they were wearing only some coarse cloth clothes, but the swords, spears, and other weapons were all in their hands.
As soon as the hour passed, there was silence in the city of Anhui, but there were three teams of soldiers and horses, who were quietly rising.
At the same time, the shouts of killing outside the city gradually began to rise, and rockets were fired into the city.
Raise the fire as a trumpet.
They knew that His Majesty's army had arrived.
"Soldiers, Your Majesty is here with a large army, let's rush," the captain said as he cheered at the soldiers and horses under his command.
"Kill, kill, kill" The soldiers and horses heard the sound of fighting outside the city, and knew that as long as they welcomed the army into the city, they would start to fight back, and they were all extremely excited and shouted loudly.
Their voices immediately attracted the attention of the Jiangdong Army not far away.
Before these Jiangdong troops began to react, a group of soldiers and horses had already rushed out, and the rain of arrows in the sky was swayed, and five thousand soldiers and horses went straight to the south gate where Sun Jing was stationed, because they knew that it was the place where His Majesty's main force attacked
