Chapter 509: Zhao Yun (I)
Tobu Castle, military camp in the west of the city.
"General, everyone is ready to go!"
Zhao Yunzheng looked up and looked west, stunned, heard the voice, bowed his head and said, "Go now!" ”
"Yes, General."
"Wait!" Zhao Yun stopped the soldier who was about to go to give the order and asked, "Has the news been sent out?" ”
"General Hui, it has been sent, a copy of Ming Gong, and a copy of General Zhang Liao near the left."
"Good!" Zhao Yun nodded.
After a short time, Zhao Yun led the army to leave Dongwu, where the smoke of gunpowder had not yet dissipated, and went to Langya in the southwest.
Halfway through, Zhao Yun stopped abruptly and said, "Order, change lanes to the south, and move forward quickly!" ”
Langya is just a fog. This city, which is very close to Qingzhou and close to the sea, has been ignored by Tao Qian and Liu Bei since Zhang Hong emerged in Qingzhou. Neglect is not to give up, but the garrison is much smaller, only two or three hundred people. Under such circumstances, Langya is living very well, so that the population in the city has gradually increased from less than 10,000 to more than 10,000, which is not much. Gongsun Du and the others had no intention of disturbing this city that had become a paradise for the time being, so they directly ignored it when they made plans.
The Haiqu guards were greatly relieved to get the movements of Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao's army.
Haiqu is different from Langya, because it is also close to the sea, it is one of the places where Xuzhou makes salt, although the scale is not large, but it is only relative to several other places, and the salt transported from here every year is enough to tens of thousands of stones.
"General, Langya is our city in the end, wouldn't it be bad to just sit back and ignore it like this?" The adjutant general hesitated for a moment when he heard this, and said.
yes, is that for support? Although Langya was ignored in the past, now the other party understands that he wants to rush here......
The guard general thought for a while, and finally shook his head: "No, Haiqu is a big matter, how can you act without an order." With that, the guard turned and left.
Seeing this, the adjutant general could only sigh secretly: That...... You can only ask for more blessings!
At the same time, after Zhao Yun and his entourage changed their route, they marched all the way, and it only took one day to reach fifty miles north of Haiqu City.
"Rest on the spot, and immediately send out a scout to investigate the situation in Haiqu." Zhao Yun looked at the wilderness on all sides, and could only find a relatively hidden place for the army to rest. This rapid march, even the elite is inevitably a little tired, take a short break to recover enough physical strength before attacking the city, in order to achieve twice the result with half the effort.
"Yes, General."
After a short time, several horsemen flew out and disappeared into the plain in a blink of an eye, and the soldiers of the Youzhou Army who stayed in place also took out dry food and fresh water one by one, and after eating and drinking briefly, they began to rest.
More than an hour later, several horsemen flew here.
"General, it has been found that Haiqu has strengthened its vigilance, but it does not restrict the entry and exit of the people."
Zhao Yun thought for a moment and asked, "Is there a caravan?" ”
"I didn't see it."
No? That should directly restrict the flow of caravans, if you want to pretend to be a caravan sneak attack, you will fall into an ambush and increase casualties, it seems that you can only choose another way.
Zhao Yun thought for a long time, but didn't come up with a way, so he could only let Tanqi go down to rest, and then ......
Midnight.
Haiqu City still did not receive the news that Zhao Yun had led the troops to come, but it still strengthened its vigilance, and the number of soldiers on the night vigil increased more than five times, and from time to time there were patrolling soldiers patrolling the city and the streets and alleys in the city.
"Heh, the garrison is really tight!"
"Okay, don't look at it alone, everyone try, it's not much time to use a telescope, the general is picking on the door tightly, if it weren't for this mission, but there would be no chance to touch it."
The soldier who spoke earlier smashed his mouth twice, reluctantly gave up his binoculars, and still admonished: "Okay! But be careful, don't break it. ”
"Don't worry!"
The soldier who spoke then carefully took the binoculars, carefully looked at the defense of the city, and sighed: "Tut-tut, if you want to say, the name of our Youzhou army is really useful, this army has not yet arrived, so I am so frightened that the defense is so tight, I really don't know if we know that we have come, will all of us not rest, rest together." ”
"Okay, don't be poor, let others watch it after reading it, so that everyone knows it in their hearts, and they can also find out why they haven't been ghostly and master...... The reason why Ming Gong's pro-soldier team was chosen. ”
"Uh, yes, Captain!"
This group of people is naturally the Youzhou Army, and it is the Youzhou Army under Zhao Yun. Every year, the Nether Squad, no, it should be called the Nether Brigade now, selects personnel from the army, replenishes them, and expands them. Supplement, because every year the Nether Squad will be sacrificed, or killed by beasts, poisonous insects, etc. while lurking, or killed by mistake, etc., as for the possibility of being captured, it is not very likely. The expansion is because the territory controlled by Gongsun Du is constantly expanding, and the manpower of the Netherworld is already in short supply, so it must be expanded. And they are the best of those who participated in the selection under Zhao Yun and were brushed down in the end. As in the early Netherworld, there were not many of them, less than fifty in total, which had been accumulated over the years, or even less.
For this matter, Gongsun Du also knows, not only Zhao Yun, but also the newly added Zhang He, Gao Ran and others in the army, all have such a team. This is what Gongsun Du wanted to see, and it was also what he originally hoped for, and for this reason, he specially dispatched precious telescopes and issued one for each such team. Because this can increase the strength of the army under him. Able to solve special situations, such as now.
"How? Everyone is sure of it? You must know that this is not an assessment, once you miss, you will die! The captain said very seriously.
"Don't worry! Since the big guy participated in the selection of the Netherworld and the Ming Gong's personal soldiers, he was ready to die in battle, after all, the casualties of these two were actually the highest in the army, especially the Netherworld. The soldier who spoke at the beginning shrugged his shoulders and even said lightly, "Besides, although Cao Jun has strengthened his defense, it is still far behind compared to the assessment, and it is completely trivial to sneak in." ”
The rest nodded in agreement.
The captain's heart was relieved, and then he raised it again, and said solemnly: "Since this is the case, everyone immediately count the equipment and prepare for ......"
After a few moments, the group disappeared into the night, and for a quarter of an hour appeared in the shadows of the city.
"Ding~"
"What sound?"
"Huh? What's wrong? ”
A soldier at the head of the city shouted when he heard the commotion, and then looked down at the city, and after not noticing it, he looked around again, and saw a brother who was on the night watch, dozing off, and every time he nodded, he was not a finger away from the rue wall.
Maybe I accidentally touched it!
The soldier's heart was relieved and he said, "It's nothing, I should have heard it wrong." ”
As everyone knows, a group of black-clothed people in the city were shocked into a cold sweat.
Naturally, they were the same group of people as before, and it was they who used special bows and crossbows to shoot the ropes they used to climb up to the top of the city, because it was a salvo, and the sound was a little louder, and they were actually heard.
After waiting for a long time, the captain saw that there was no new movement, so he tried the firmness of the rope again, and climbed silently to the head of the city first. The rest of the people immediately separated into four and climbed up after them.
Five miles away.
Zhao Yun lay on the ground, staring at the city, but because the telescope was temporarily lent to Yanyun's team, he couldn't see anything at all.
Zhao Yun hesitated for a long time and said, "Elect five hundred people, and we will go three miles forward." ”
"General, this ...... Wouldn't it be too dangerous? It's only two miles too close! ”
"It's okay, it's not for everyone to go over together, it's just for you to select five hundred people, and then a group of fifty people, a few moments apart, three miles forward." Zhao Yun waved his hand, and then touched it forward first.
After a while, Zhao Yun came to the north gate of Haiqu two miles away, and with his eyesight, through the light of the fire at the head of the city, he could already vaguely see the movement of the city.
"Enemy Attack~"
A shout sounded under the night sky, and although Zhao Yun didn't really hear it, his heart sank: Oops, Yanyun's team has been discovered!
But Zhao Yun didn't give up, he still lay on his own, and he must have looked at the north gate of Haiqu City uncertainly.
