At the East Bridge of the Rising Water, Cao Zhang's protector Zhu Shuo was emaciated and traveled back and forth to each formation to grasp the progress of the formation.

By dusk, all units of the Wei army had already completed the construction of front-line fortifications and had successively completed preparations for erecting pontoon bridges.

Cao Zhang did not command the army from beginning to end, all of them were in the hands of Zhu Shuo, and Cao Zhang appeared in various formations to select the warriors and knights.

At dusk, Cao Zhang gathered about 3,000 horsemen, slaughtered cattle and wine, and set up a grand bonfire, feasted and drank together, and drank until the middle of the night.

Since nightfall, the Han and Wei armies have lit grass along the water, and from time to time there have been tentative launches of catapults or rockets, harassing each other.

The two bridges left by the Han army, the Wei army did not attack, this is the entrance to hell, and no one can take advantage of it.

Preparing all kinds of offensive equipment and building pontoon bridges to launch a general offensive was the only choice for the Wei army to give full play to its advantages in manpower and material resources.

The thin surface of the water has been shattered by flying rocks, the ice has accumulated on both banks, and the river is rushing cold water.

A hundred steps behind the river bank, the trebuchets damaged by the Han and Wei armies are being repaired.

Yu rolled his left eye lime into his eyes, and the gauze band was obliquely wrapped around his left eye, he had just returned from the wounded camp, too many soldiers were dazzled by lime, but fortunately, the army had a large amount of sesame oil and rapeseed oil, and it was able to complete the basic rescue.

However, both eyes are injured and need a certain amount of time to recuperate and recover, which has nothing to do with the will to fight, and if you can't see it, you can't fight, and you must be transferred to the rear to recuperate.

Wang Chong's department, which was under the guardianship of Yu Tuo, had been transferred to the area of the wounded barracks and stationed in the area, and Liu Bei would Yong transfer Chen Shi's department to the position of the East Bridge of the Shui River.

The military officials of Chen Shisuo stayed in the wounded barracks and asked about the various conditions of the lime and the countermeasures.

Chen Shi followed Yu to inspect various trebuchet positions, inspecting all kinds of offensive and defensive materials stored in the caves, and the key materials were arson materials.

The Wei army will set up a pontoon bridge tomorrow for a full-scale general attack, and as long as the pontoon bridge is burned, the Wei army will not be able to launch an effective attack tomorrow.

Yu turned over a tiring day, set up a bed in the Tibetan soldier cave, and warned Chen Shi when he said goodbye: "The thieves are attacking, and the door of Gai's life has been exposed, which is really the end of the road." Our army camp is strong and guarded against, and it is difficult for thieves to succeed. When our partial army returns, it will be the time when the morale of the enemy will collapse, and hundreds of thousands of enemy captives will be like pigs and dogs. ”

Chen Shi pointed to the large vat of flour and lime powder behind Yu's turnover: "Sir, the northwest wind has prevailed recently, how much is the lime killed by our army?" ”

"It's hard to calculate, the thieves are not finely ground with lime, and about 700 officers and soldiers in front and behind our army were injured by lime. The ash of our army is delicate, and the thieves are as few as 3,000 and as many as 5,000 and cannot fight again. ”

Yu Tuo's tone paused slightly: "The thieves should have no way to cure the lime. ”

Chen Shi nodded deeply, at present, only the military officers, the military doctors of the wounded barracks, and the wounded soldiers who were healed knew the use of rapeseed oil.

Rapeseed oil was Tian Xin's repeated request, and he only stockpiled living and combat materials in the army...... People prefer to solidify animal fats and fats that are easy to carry.

On the north shore, there was a wail in the area of the wounded barracks, more wounded soldiers were silent and sluggish, their eyes were wrapped in cloth towels, the burning sensation in their eyes was unbearable, they could not see for the time being, and they did not know if they could see clearly in the future, their bodies were traumatized, their hearts were also suffering from all kinds of torments, there were wailing robes around them, and there were also the phenomenon of enforcing military laws and military discipline from time to time.

Under the high pressure of oppressive and severe military law, no one in the wounded barracks dared to make noise or clamour, and those who dared to do so had their heads hung under the flagpole of the barracks.

Sima Yi inspected the wounded barracks, his fists clenched in his sleeves, he couldn't control his emotions, and his face was solemn.

This battle was no longer fought, and when the front line was confrontational, the Wei army was denser than the Han army, and when the lime dust was filled, the Wei army lacked experience in dealing with it.

Wounded soldiers, wounded soldiers who are about to become disabled, often affect morale more than death.

If the general offensive continues to use lime to attack the Han army tomorrow, the morale of the attacking troops will definitely not be high, and the erection of the pontoon bridge will be affected.

But if you don't use lime, the Han army will also use it, and it will still be affected.

It would be good if the northwest wind was stronger tomorrow, and if the wind was stronger by seven or eight percent, the lime powder would obviously blow to the southeast, blowing towards the face of the Han army, and the impact on the Wei army would be minimized.

Coming out of the wounded barracks, Sima Yi went to the front area and met with Zhang He.

Outside the camp tent, Zhang He is inspecting the attacking equipment, he holds an eight-foot long green bamboo that can be held in one hand, he holds one arm high in the southeast direction of the volley, the green bamboo waving an afterimage, the lime hidden in the bamboo tube scatters a stone dust mist that is more than three zhang long and nearly three zhang wide, and the dust and mist blows to the southeast under the promotion of the night wind, spreads the range, and gradually lands.

The green bamboo in his hand turned his head, pulled out the wooden stopper, and Zhang He shook it again, and it was a cloud of stone dust and mist.

Sima Yi came from the north, looked up at the lime powder that was drifting away in the moonlight, and still covered his face with his sleeve, and instigated it with his right hand.

Zhang He shook the green bamboo, shook out some condensed lime lumps, frowned and couldn't understand the reason, handed the green bamboo to the guard, and arched his hand: "Overseer." ”

"General Zuo doesn't need to be polite."

Sima Yi arched his hand, and his face looked a little white under the bright moonlight: "There are many officials in the army who resist lime, what is General Zuo's good strategy?" ”

"Not yet."

Zhang He stretched out his arms to invite Sima Yi into the account, and the simple sand table had been placed in the account, Zhang He pointed to the area around the West Bridge and said: "The Han army entrusted the big unburned bridge, which is just conducive to our army's raft to build a bridge." The Han army will break through me with fire, and the first soldiers of tomorrow should carry water and water containers. The Han army attacked, and I took water to extinguish it. ”

"The strength of the Han army is gathered at the East and West Second Bridge, and our army can attack in many ways, and we will definitely be able to make achievements."

There is a ready-made bridge, tomorrow as long as the bamboo raft is pushed into the river, throw obstacles at the wooden bridge can block the drifting boat, the middle of the river is turbulent and difficult to freeze, as long as the bamboo raft is congested and stranded before and after, the river water can quickly freeze on the bamboo raft.

The Han army's offensive tactics had little effect in the face of ice and water, and it was impossible to form a chain reaction like in summer and autumn.

Zhang He is good at taking advantage of the terrain, and he nodded on the two pontoon bridges to express his worries: "Sima Commander, if our army can burn the east and west water bridges, the Han army will not be able to pursue." However, if the pontoon bridge is erected, the ice water is attached, and it is extremely difficult to damage. If our army cannot break the Han army, the Han army will break me. ”

"If you want to win this battle, you have to break the cauldron and sink the boat."

The pontoon bridge is a double-edged sword, which can facilitate the development of one's own strength advantage, and can also facilitate the pursuit of the Han army.

Sima Yi's Worried Lime ...... It must be used, Lime doesn't have the heart to help the Han family, he won't love the Han, and it's the northwest wind, so he takes advantage of it to some extent.

Throwing lime at close range, the probability of the Han army being hit is higher, which is a very cost-effective thing.

Using lime, you can fight with the Han army into three for one, or five for one, and your own side will earn.

Lime is not absolutely blind, but the healing process is a bit painful, and it can still be recovered.

The Han army is also human, and the lime throwing at close range is enough to pull the exchange ratio infinitely to one for one.

Lime is a good thing, as the weather gets colder and the northwest wind becomes stronger, the advantage of using lime is also increasing.

Zhang He has his own ideas, with Zhang Liao Zhuyu in front, Zhang He also doesn't care much about Sima Yi's thoughts.

As long as Zhang Liao's chariot tactics are effective and can help Xiahou Shang delay and suppress the Beifu soldiers, as long as Zhang Liao can come back alive, why should he add a heavy general.

Zhang Liao can be a heavy general, why can't he be?

The Han army was so rampant, and the fortunes of the country were so difficult, that those who could fight deserved a higher status.

Today is the 23rd day of the 11th month of the summer calendar, and it is also the 20th day of October in the first year of Zhang Wu, and the moonlight is clear and translucent and falls on the positions of the two armies.

In the Beifu military camp in the north of Yunxian County and east of Dingling, Tian Xin wore red lacquer mirror armor as always, and led more than 100 horsemen to inspect the battalions wearing an eagle-faced battle helmet.

Wu Huanyi was in the camp, and Han Long led Tian Xin and Yu Zhong to inspect the stables and check the supply of forage at night.

From beginning to end, Tian Xin didn't say a word, and after sending Tian Xin away, Han Long frowned from time to time, looked up at the slight gap and sighed.

Looking down at his shadow, Han Long thought of the friendship around him, and thought of the vision and pursuit of the future of the officials of the Northern Mansion.

It will take 18 days to belong to the Beifu soldier sequence, during which Tian Xin will give lectures when he has time, talking about the Six Classics, allusions to Han history, allusions to "Thousand Character Text", and the world after the revival of the Han Dynasty in the future.

The person who can supervise the military of the two states is called Wu Zhen, a ruthless and bottomless person.
