Chapter 115: The Bloody Battle of Gepo IV
In the early morning, a gentle ray of sunlight refracted down, dispelling the thick fog that shrouded the earth.
The south bank of the Rushui River.
In the Nanyang military camp.
In the camp tent of the Chinese army, all the generals in Nanyang are there, but they all bow their heads, the atmosphere is a little low, some generals are gray-headed and gray-faced, some generals are covered with blood, and there is a faint sound of wounded soldiers wailing around the camp tent.
"Damn Yellow Turban Thief!"
Du Wei Huang Meng was injured, a sharp arrow penetrated his armor and entered his lower abdomen, although the injury was not very serious, but it gave him a sense of shame and shame, he clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and said: "I must avenge this revenge!" ”
Last night's night raid failed.
The Yellow Turban Army had already taken precautions, but he still jumped in with a grin, and the casualties of the county soldiers he was proud of were nearly five hundred erlang, one-sixth of which went, not only his vitality was greatly damaged, but his morale also fell to the bottom.
"Captain Huang, I suggest, let's withdraw our troops for the time being!"
Liu Jin arched his hand and said.
He had the power to overseer the army, so what he said was heavy, not a suggestion, but an order.
"Why?" Huang Meng's eyes were gloomy, looking at Liu Jin, Liu Jin was provoking his majesty in the army, which made him a little disliked, so he said coldly: "The soldier is fast, don't you know?" ”
"Captain, although he does not go to the battlefield, he is also familiar with military books, fighting on the battlefield, paying attention to a momentum, making a drum like a tiger, and then exhausting, three and declining, now we have been attacking for several days, but it is difficult to advance an inch, there are many casualties in each department, and the morale is getting lower and lower, how can we attack it!"
Liu Jin looked at Huang Meng, not afraid at all, and talked eloquently.
Although he is only familiar with the art of war and is not good at commanding troops, he can see the situation very clearly, and now the situation is like this, and the Nanyang Army has no ability to break through Rushui at all, unless it ......
Liu Jin's gaze squinted at the silent Mushan.
Unless the forces under Makiyama's command can move, there may be a chance to break through Rushui's interception.
"Say it again!"
Liu Jin pointed to the generals and said: "Now there are a lot of soldiers under their command, and their combat effectiveness is much weaker. ”
"What Lord Guncheng said is even!"
"Please have mercy on Lord Lieutenant!"
A group of county lieutenants bowed their heads and begged Huang Meng.
"Pass my military order, put up a list to avoid war, and collect troops for three days!"
Huang Meng's face was pale, but he said helplessly.
"Yes!"
The generals breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly bowed down to receive the order.
……
Half an hour later.
Wuyin Barracks.
Mu Shan opened the curtain of the camp tent, strode in, and then asked the guards on the left and right to take off their armor before saying, "Go and invite Mr. Jiang!" ”
"No!"
A personal guard quickly went to Jiang Lu, who was serving as a military advisor, to invite him to the big tent.
"Shepherd is back so soon?" Jiang Lu walked in and asked a little strangely, "Don't you have to watch the battle?" ”
"They have collected their troops, and they will not fight for three days!"
Mu Shan sat cross-legged in the middle, took a sip of water, and then said: "This is Liu Juncheng's suggestion, our Lord Du Lieutenant is estimated to be unable to fight, and they have no intention of fighting one by one at this moment!" ”
"It seems that there are still people in the Nanyang army who understand!"
Jiang Lu said with a smile: "The casualties in the first battle last night were not small! ”
"It's mostly county soldiers!" Mushan said: "There are only 3,000 soldiers in the county, but the loss is 500, this Huang Meng is going to die of heartache!" ”
"The casualties are so large, it stands to reason that Huang Meng should be desperate, how could he withdraw his troops!"
"He can't do it if he doesn't collect troops, Liu Jin doesn't want to be a person who only manages logistics, I suspect that he has the task of supervising the war, and even has the right to temporarily replace the army!"
Mu Shan has a big personality and disdains conspiracy, but he is a person who is not nonsense in small things and big things, in the past, he was sheltered under Zhang Mancheng and could be a martial artist who charged into battle, and now he has become the commander of Nanyang Yellow Turban, bearing the life and death of countless people, and he has begun to grow up continuously, and his mind has become more and more delicate.
"Liu Jin, although I have never met, he is somewhat famous!"
Jiang Lu squinted slightly, and said: "He is a student of Yingchuan, a fellow disciple of Zhang Zhi, and he is also from a poor family, but he has made friends with many children of the scholar family, and his reputation is far and wide. To appease the counties, the organization is clear, and the city government is quite deep, not to be underestimated! ”
"Do you think he's going to use a certain soldier?"
Makiyama was a little worried.
"Definitely!" Jiang Lu said: "He is not Huang Meng, Huang Meng gave up Mu Shuai and didn't use it, because Mu Shuai's merits are high, he can't suppress you anymore, and Liu Jin, he is different, all he wants is merit, the merit of defeating the Yellow Turban Army, who will be in charge of the army, he doesn't care!" ”
"So how should so-and-so deal with it?"
"You can't hide, and now that the county soldiers have suffered a big loss, it is also the time for the shepherd to establish his prestige and win the hearts of the people, if he can win a battle, he will definitely be able to improve the influence of the shepherd marshal in the Nanyang army!"
There was a hint of obscurity in Jiang Lu's eyes: "It's just that I'm still worried about it!" ”
"What?"
"If the Yellow Turban Army is hidden, there must be a plan!" Jiang Lu spread out the map: "Mu Shuai look carefully, although the location here is very good, but it is difficult to get in and out, easy to defend and difficult to attack, there is also a difficulty in getting in and out, as long as we besiege here, even if they have more food, they will not be able to support it sooner or later, after all, hundreds of thousands of people eat and drink, consumed every day, is an unbelievable number, and in the end they must break through, so if they fight, it stands to reason that under the situation of sufficient food and grass, they will fight quickly, and they should not delay time, but now, It's clear that they're stalling for time, not us! ”
"Could it be that they are waiting for Huang Shao and He Manbu to go south to join forces?"
Makiyama thought of a possibility, Dao.
"It's possible!" Jiang Lu thought for a while and said: "But there is the Yingchuan army in the north, and the Xuzhou army from the east, they may not dare to go south, and even if you dare, I don't think this matter is so simple!" ”
"It's not that simple?"
Mu Shan was thinking for a while, and couldn't think of anything: "But their forces are already on the surface, what else can they rely on!" ”
"I'm afraid there will be some soldiers and horses that we can't think of!" Jiang Lu said: "The information on the battlefield is ever-changing, and anything is possible!" ”
"I'll think again!"
Mu Shanzi carefully looked at the map of Runan, looked at the route from the north to the south, and simulated once, twice, and three times in his heart...... Countless possibilities, but in the end, there is still not much clue.
"Report to the master!" A general of the guard battalion walked in.
"Say!"
"General Thunder Tiger is back!"
"Let him come to me at once!" Although Mu Shan was very calm on his face, he was a little anxious in his heart, anxious to know what the situation was with his son, who led a battalion alone for the first time.
"No!"
After the soldiers went down, it didn't take long for a dusty young man to walk in.
"The last general, Lei Hu, meet the big boss!"
"The scenery is good!"
"Shaoqu Shuai has taken Dingying, and is preparing to capture several cities in the west, and the soldiers and horses are going north, after all, the land of Ruyang!"
"He's fast!"
Mu Shan breathed a sigh of relief, there was Jingping Camp in the north, he was able to send a breath of relief, and he asked, "He can bring it back!" ”
"Yes!"
"Say!"
"Shaoqu Shuai ordered, let the big boss not be obscure, but need to be radiant, no matter what, to win the most credit, it is best to personally kill the thief head of Gongdu Liu Pi to deter the world!"
"Why?"
"Shaoqu Shuai didn't say it, he just said that the work of the big boss is related to the future of all of us!"
"This kid doesn't say a word, he wants to kill him urgently!"
Mu Shan said a little angrily.
