Chapter 523: Attack in the Night
It is said that Xi Zhicai received Zhuge Liang's flying pigeon biography, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed, Huang Zu's nail has been nailed in Qiyue City for many years, because of the relationship between Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, he has not been able to pull it up. Xi Zhicai still remembers the humiliation of being forced to retreat from Baling, and let himself receive the harshly worded letter from the lord. If it weren't for the sudden intervention of Sun Jian and Sun Ce's soldiers, he would have been working in that high castle by now.
Huang Zhong received Xi Zhicai's invitation and immediately rushed from the camp in the north of Hanyang City. Xi Zhicai took out Zhuge Liang's flying pigeon biography, and took out a military plan and said: "Hansheng! The opportunity we've been waiting for for years has finally arrived! "This military plan, Xi Zhicai and Huang Zhong don't know how many times they have studied and perfected, and now it is finally going to be implemented. Huang Zhong looked at Zhuge Liang's secret order, and also said happily: "We have always regarded the Jiangdong Army as an imaginary enemy, and this time we can finally enter the actual battle." ”
Xi Zhicai smiled and said, "Hansheng, if there is no objection, please implement it immediately according to the military plan." On General Gan Ning's side, I will send an order, and in the early morning of the day after tomorrow, all the warships will cross the river and attack Qiyue City at the same time. ”
Huang Zhong stood up and tightened the sword at his waist, watched Xi Zhicai put on his robe, and the two fought together and entered the camp in the north of Hanyang City. The order for the land and water army to attack has been issued, and the main general of the water army is Gao Lan, whose task is to converge with Ganning, cooperate with the waterway to attack the water gate of Yuecheng at the same time, destroy the water village of the Huangzu army, and disperse the enemy's forces to defend the city.
Huang Zhong lit up the four soldiers and horses in the camp, and the first pioneer was Wen Zhongye, the general of Jingzhou, who was currently the commander of the first division of Huang Zhong's regiment, with his son Wenhou and his adopted son Wenxiu, leading the Qinglong Army of 10,000, and immediately set off to arrive before the early morning of the next day, and directly hit the land gate in the north of Qiyue City.
The second road is the vanguard flank protection army, and the leading general is Su Fei and Su Yiyang, the general of Jingzhou, who is currently the commander of the second division of the Huangzhong Army, leading the Qinglong Army of 10,000, and setting off an hour after the departure of the vanguard army, and the military position is on the left rear flank of the vanguard Wenpin.
The third road is the main army, Huang Zhong and Xi Zhicai personally led the team, and the partial general Bu Qi Buzi Mountain, the young general of Jingzhou First Imperial Examination High School, is now the commander of the third division of Huang Zhong's army, leading 30,000 people, and set off three hours after the vanguard army set off.
The fourth road is the army after the merger, responsible for emergency rescue and heavy grain and grass transportation protection, the leading general is Jingzhou general Huo Jun Huo Zhongmiao, the current commander of the fourth division of the Huang Zhong Army, leading the Qinglong Army 20,000, and finally set off.
After Xi Zhicai and Huang Zhong conveyed the order, the general Wen Ping immediately returned to his camp and ordered the most elite 10,000 Wen family troops. Since Chen Long took Jingzhou, Wen Ping surrendered wholeheartedly and trained a Wen family team in Jiangxia Hanyang City. Wenpin is strong in martial arts, has a wide range of strategies, has the talent of a general, and his strength is not under Huang Zhong, but he is a low-key person on weekdays, and he usually trains, and Wen Xiu and Wen Hou are in charge. Today, with the order of General Huang Zhong, Wen Ping knew that the day had come to drive for the Qinglong Army, so he ordered the three armies, and was the first to set off from Hanyang City at night, and scheduled to march in one night and one day, just arriving at the designated attack position in the early morning of the day after tomorrow.
The soldiers were fast, and Wen Ping drove his army, lit torches in the dark night, and hurried away. The torch light stretched along the road, like a fiery dragon, winding through the hills and swamps, surrounded by the shadows of the mountains. Although the distance between Hanyang Fortress and Chowol Fortress is not far in a straight line, the banks of the river are hilly and wetland, full of swamps, and the relationship is hostile, so there is no road connecting the two cities. Everywhere the Qinglong Pioneer Army passed, there were mountain trenches everywhere, but fortunately, the Wenpin marched with rich experience, and the vanguard army paved roads in the mountains, stacked bridges in the water, and went silently to the city of the moon.
Although the sky is still pure black, the horizon has been slightly white, and it will be bright in a few hours. Qinglong pioneer through the swamp between Huanghuashu and Majiahu, into the Erlongshan Canyon, this is the only way between the city and Hanyang, out of the Erlongshan Canyon, is the Zhangjiachong Heights in the north of the city, after climbing the ground, to reach the outside of the city is a smooth road.
Wen Ping looked at the black pressure on both sides of the Erlong Mountain Canyon, and said in his heart that it was a treacherous terrain, if an ambush was set up on both sides, just arrows and crossbows would fall on rocks, and a large number of casualties would be caused. If it weren't for the fact that his opponent Huang Zu was just a small character, Wen Ping would never be at ease to march like this in the dark night. Rao is like this, Wen Ping still ordered to slow down the march and send more scouts to explore the way.
The former army safely walked out of the canyon and climbed towards the Zhangjiachong Heights. Wen Ping, who was draped all over his body and immediately at the exit of the canyon, watched the torches gradually extend to the high ground of Zhangjiachong, breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately crossed the spear and iron-colored armor behind him, but it was his adopted son Wen Xiu, and said loudly: "Father, there is still half an hour, the sky will be bright, and there is naturally no need to worry about it then." Congzi Wenhou waved the saber in his hand and said: "Father, after crossing Zhangjiachong, you can find a water source and set up a camp, and then it will naturally be as stable as a rock." ”
Wen Ping nodded slightly, the troops were the most vulnerable on the march, not to mention the night march. This time the bet is that Huang Zujun didn't expect that the Qinglong Army would take the initiative to attack, after all, for so many years, because of the relationship between the Jiangdong Army, there has been no war in Jiangxia, and Huang Zujun has been taking advantage of the heart disease of the two major forces to survive in the cracks.
As soon as Wen Hou's words fell, suddenly a terrible horn sounded on the top of Zhangjiachong Mountain, and it came out far away in the dark night, as if announcing the end of the Wen Recruitment Army. Immediately after that, the war drums and roars all around, countless torches lit up on the top of Zhangjiachong Mountain and the hills on both sides of Erlong Mountain, and only the sound of countless feather arrows breaking through the air was heard, like the sickle of death.
Wen Ping was shocked, kicked his seat and dismounted, and the war horse turned around and went straight to the hill next to him with the most dense torch light. Wen Xiu, Wen Hou, together with Wen Ping's three hundred guards, immediately hit their horses and chased Wen Ping, Wen Hou heard the screams of the soldiers around him from the arrows, and did not forget to pull his neck and shout: "Enemy attack!" Enemy attack! The three armies are hidden! ”
Wen Ping took the lead, and there was only the torch-light dense hills in his eyes, and he rushed up. In the dark night, a feathered arrow came out of the haze like a ghost, with a piercing scream of breaking through the air, Wen Pingwu held the three-pointed two-edged knife in his hand, and with his extraordinary spiritual sense, he controlled the war horse to dodge. The incoming arrows became more and more dense, and as the distance approached, the force became stronger and stronger. As if born with a sixth sense, Wen Ping immediately locked the location of this hill at the moment when the horn sounded and the torch light was lit, because it was the best location, the best place to observe the battlefield and command the battle, and the most important thing was that the torch light was dense and immovable, which was very different from the torch light that rushed down the mountain quickly, it was obviously the command post of the enemy's commander, and the guards were only responsible for the safety of the commander, and did not participate in close combat.
Wen Ping felt that the arrow rain was getting denser and denser, the pressure of the three-pointed two-edged knife in his hand doubled, the speed of the war horse slowed down, and suddenly a gun and a knife on both sides helped Wen Ping block the arrow rain, and it was Wen Xiu and Wen Hou who came to his side. The father and son have the same heart, and they want to capture the thief and capture the king first. Wen Ping shouted: "Fire extinguisher!" The three hundred warriors around him threw all the torches into the grass, and the surroundings fell into darkness, and the rain of arrows in front of him lost their heads.
The war horse hired by the dark Chinese galloped all the way, and I don't know how many arrows were hit on the body, but fortunately, the armor was thick enough and there were no too fatal injuries. Seeing that the torches of the sneak attack troops were only a few hundred paces away, Wen Ping shouted, and the three hundred knights increased their speed again in unison, crashing into a group of archers, which immediately caused a great chaos.
Wen Ping waved his sword and immediately slashed several people, and saw that the archers on the other side were all in black armor under the firelight, and he was slightly puzzled in his heart. I don't know how many times I've seen Huang Zujun's standard armor, but I've never seen such black armor. I didn't have time to think about it in my busy schedule, Wen Ping, under the protection of Wen Xiu and Wen Hou, was like the tip of a wedge, and it was chiseled towards the center of the torch light, and the archers retreated one after another, and a group of spearmen flashed out.
If you want to know how Wenpin lives and dies, and listen to the next breakdown.
