Chapter 36: Primitive Paratroopers
It turned out that when the main force of Taiping Dao raided Julu City again, it sent 300 people wearing the uniforms of the Han army troops and waving the military flag of the sect members, trying to deceive the Julu defenders in disguise. These uniforms and flags were naturally captured in the Battle of Gwangjong. As a result, the sect members rushed to the city gate a moment ahead of schedule and unveiled the plan of the Taiping Dao. The surprise attack failed, and the Taiping Dao could only rely on besieging the giant deer. Because of the lack of attacking strength, it has never been able to break through the county capital of Julu.
At this time, the main force of the Han army, Huangfu Song, had arrived in Jizhou-Jieqiao, and there was already a Han soldier waiting by the river, but it was Dong Zhuo who came to greet Huangfu Song.
Dong Zhuo lost the battle, and the court ordered Huangfu Song to replace him, Huangfu Song is not only his prefect, but also both of him are from Liangzhou, and Huangfu Song is his predecessor in the same state, and it is reasonable for him to come to greet him in person. Seeing Huangfu Song leading his troops to come, Dong Zhuo greeted him from afar.
Huangfu Song saw Dong Zhuo coming to greet him, ordered the three armies to stop, and took a cadre of generals to the army. In the middle of the two military horses, Dong Zhuo and Huangfu Song met.
Dong Zhuo dismounted first, Huangfu Song also dismounted, and the generals who followed behind Dong Zhuo and the others who followed Huangfu Song also dismounted.
Dong Zhuo saluted and said: "General Aspire has been around for a long time! ”
Huangfu Song returned the salute with a smile: "I haven't seen you for many years, and your demeanor is better than in the past." ”
If Zhang Luo was here, he would definitely be surprised: Dong Zhuo also has times when he is not rude?
Judging only from the superficial speech and demeanor, although Dong Zhuo's words are rough and not very literary, he is very respectful to Huangfu Song and has no arrogant appearance at all.
In fact, no matter what Dong Zhuo has in the future and how much authority he has, now he is just a former Hedong Taishou and the current Dongzhong Lang General. Not to mention anything else, only Huangfu Song, Lu Zhi, and Zhu Jun will stabilize him, that is to say, he does not have arrogant capital, and the heritage of Huangfu Song's family is stronger than Dong Zhuo.
Huangfu generations will be the door, the border of the town for a long time, his father and ancestor are famous in the world, two thousand stones, protégés and former officials all over the border county, Huangfu Song's father Huangfu Gui is one of the "Liangzhou Sanming", renamed Zhenxi Prefecture. Dong Zhuo, as a native of Huangfu Song's state, must have heard of the name of Huangfu when he was a child, and Dong Zhuo's father and ancestor had only been county lieutenants at the highest, and he couldn't catch up with Huangfu Song when he patted his horse compared to his family background, so he was respectful.
Dong Zhuo was very respectful to Huang Fu Song, and Huang Fu Song was also very polite to Dong Zhuo. Although Dong Zhuo's family background is ordinary, Dong Zhuo is very talented.
After Dong Zhuo finished talking with Huangfu Song, Dong Zhuo summoned the generals who came with him and introduced them to Huangfu Song one by one.
"This is my son-in-law Niu Fu, this Wuzhou Haojie Hu Zhen, this Wuzhou Haojie Yang Ding, this Beidi Li Dao, this Zhangye Guo Yan, this Anding Fan Chou, this Wuwei Zhang Ji, this Wuwei Duan Xuan, this Beidi Li Meng, this Beidi Wang Fang." Wait, wait, wait, a cadre of generals under Dong Zhuo's command, after introducing his own subordinates, Dong Zhuo introduced the rest of the people, "This captain Zou Jing ......." ”
Zou Jing was more than Chinese New Year's Eve, his appearance was not good, and two servants stood behind him. Xun Zhen glanced at Zou Jing's body, and his eyes went straight to the ears and arms of these two servants, and when he saw one of them with big ape arms and big ears, his heart moved, and then he looked at this person's face, and saw that this person was very young, at most twenty-four or five, and seven feet five or six tall.
"Isn't this man?"
"That's right! It's Liu Xuande. ”
It's a pity that Dong Zhuo, who is white, didn't introduce it.
After Dong Zhuo finished speaking, the generals who came with him, Huangfu Song also introduced him to the captains of the Northern Army and Fu Xie and others.
When everyone had finished saluting, they returned to the army.
With Dong Zhuo leading the way, Huangfu Song crossed the boundary bridge first, leaving Fu Xie and others to command the brigade to cross the river.
That night, Zhang Liang led his army back to Guangzong to attack at night and fought a draw with Huangfu Song. Song and Jiao Brother Liang fought in Guangzong, Liang Zhong was brave, and Song could not be defeated. Tomorrow is to close the camp and rest to see what happens.
Having said this, the guards asked about Bian Xi's attack on Jijia Town. Bian Xi had personally inspected the terrain, and Jijia Town was naturally much inferior to Guangzong and Pingyuan City. It can be defeated by a hard attack by troops, but if you do that, you will inevitably suffer heavy casualties. Bian Xi keenly felt that although Zhang Luo was determined to fight, he also didn't want to die. After briefly introducing the situation to the guards, Bian Xi also fell silent.
Jijiazhen has also fought a lot of battles, and the defensive layout is quite reasonable. There are trebuchets on the Qianmen Road to defend, and the walls of the town are all made of stones, and I heard from the people in my village who have entered the manor of Jijia Town, there are still places to stand on the walls of the town, and there will be great casualties if you attack the city with a ladder.
There was a cliff at the back of the town, and Bian Xi himself climbed up to see if he could hang down the long rope and slide down. As a result, the mountain was overgrown with trees, and it was difficult for large troops to go up. Moreover, there is a considerable distance between the cliff and the city wall, and there is actually a ravine behind the city wall, and there is no way to attack from there. There are also patrols in Jijia Town, and Bian Xi can only attack from the flank. Although he had to cross the moat, he could send troops to destroy the channel that led the stream to Jijia Town, and then attack with a long ladder.
It took only one day to reach Jijia Town by water, and Bian Xi rushed to Jijia Town with reinforcements of two tun troops. The sound of bowstrings firing at each other could be heard in the distance. After arriving at the camp, Bian Xi saw that the troops were killing and there were signs of a large-scale attack, but there was no large-scale attack.
"Where is Qu Shuai? Lao Pei," Bian Xi asked.
After all, following Rengong's guards, Bian Xi still had to hurry up.
"Qu Shuai is over in the village." It was Pei Yuanshao who presided over the tentative attack, and Sima Ju and Zhang Luo were not there.
When they arrived at the hillside near the village, Bian Xi and the others were about to pop out their eyes. I saw a large group of people standing on the hillside, and what was even more frightening was that several extremely huge umbrellas were slowly descending in mid-air. Looking at the texture of the umbrella from a distance, Bian Xi knew that it was the tent cloth of Zhang Luo's troops. Large water stains left behind after the water has dried are clearly visible. And there are dozens of ropes under the umbrella, and there are people hanging under the ropes.
The guard had never seen such a scene before, he was stunned for a while, and then stammered a little and asked, "Brother Bian......"
Flying in the air in ancient times was something that only gods could do, even if they carried such a big umbrella on their backs and could fly in the sky, it scared these brothers' hearts fluttering.
Bian Xi hadn't heard Zhang Luo say anything about it, he didn't have time to answer the guard's question, so he hurriedly rushed forward. When he got closer, Bian Xi saw that it was a terrain quite similar to the mountain behind Jijia Town, and a group of brothers carried the huge umbrella on their backs and jumped down from a few feet above the ground. The umbrellas seemed to be holding on to something, and though the silk was soft, it was all ridged. With the help of the mountain wind, the brothers in mid-air slowly slid forward. When they fell to the ground, the brothers were all bearded and tailed, and they didn't look injured.
But when Bian Xi's eyes looked elsewhere, he knew that his thoughts were wrong. But I saw a brother sitting on the ground next to him who had obviously broken his leg. There are also a few who don't know if their heads hit the ground first, with blood on their faces and cloth on their heads. There are also some brothers who have not fallen very hard, limping and limping under the support of others, thinking that they want to move their muscles and bones.
After a closer look, I saw Zhang Luozheng leading Guan Hai and Sima Ju to stand on the hillside where the brothers jumped down to command. Now Bian Xi already understood, Qu Shuai still decided to move from the back mountain where Jijia Town's defense was relatively loose. If a group of brothers can jump down the back hill with a big umbrella on their backs and fall into the back wall of Jijia Town, then as long as someone can defend the back wall, everyone can climb in from the back wall.
This idea is easy to think of, but when such an unheard of and unseen tactic is really turned into reality, Bian Xi still feels stunned for a while. Qu Shuai has long given people a feeling that is difficult to describe, and Bian Xi has long admired Zhang Luo's five-body throw. Now what he felt was a kind of throbbing, and Zhang Luo was far beyond Bian Xi's imagination.
