Chapter 426: Xiang Han's Fighting Method

In fact, Han Xin's strategy of copying Xiang Kang's tired soldiers still received a lot of effect, and the continuous harassment for two consecutive nights made the newcomers of the Han army suffer a lot, and they had to rush to build and strengthen the camp during the day, cut down trees to build siege weapons, mine and transport stone mines to prepare shells for counterweight trebuchets, and had to prevent the Nanyang army from suddenly sending troops, even if they could take turns to rest, the biological clock was also seriously disrupted, resulting in the rest of the Han army soldiers was seriously insufficient, and morale and physical strength were also greatly affected.

Among them, the camps of the main force of the Han army are quite good, the troops are sufficient, as long as the night duty team is arranged, and there are cavalry slashing and expelling the disturbance squad of the Nanyang army, most of the soldiers even if they go to the disturbance tactics of the Nanyang army, they don't need to get up and prepare for battle every time, but the quality of sleep is affected, and it is barely bearable, but the Han army's partial division Ding Ji is different stationed outside the west gate of Wancheng.

The strength is relatively thin, the frequency of rotation of the on-duty army of Ding Ji's department is naturally high, and the camp area is small, as long as the disturbance team of the Nanyang Army is beating gongs and drums outside the camp, it can immediately wake up the entire Han Army's partial division camp, Xiang Kang greeted Ding Ji again, strictly prohibiting Ding Ji from sending troops out of the camp at night, there is no way to expel the Nanyang Army disturbance squad outside the camp, Ding Ji's department is equivalent to just being beaten and not fighting back, and finally plus the heavy physical work such as rushing to build camps and digging trenches during the day, so two nights down, The Han army went up to Ding Ji himself and down to the ordinary soldiers, and almost none of them did not become panda-eyed, standing yawning and snoring, and the hard work was abnormal.

The third night was the same, the sky had just darkened, the arrogant Nanyang Army squad began to run to the Han Army's partial division camp outside the noisy, the Han Army's partial division of the night army was afraid of the Nanyang Army in the ten fakes suddenly a truth, had to urgently assemble every time to prepare for battle, and every time it was in vain, tossing in vain but not seeing half of the enemy's figure, the responsible Ding Ji did not even dare to sleep, the same every time he was woken up, he had to get up quickly, in fact, the hard work was still on the Han soldiers who only needed to be responsible for the battle.

Half of it was out of good intentions, half of it was to curry favor with Ding Ji, and after getting up several times in less than half of the night, the captain of the pro-soldier couldn't help but persuade Ding Ji: "General, the Nanyang thief army is clearly bluffing, it is impossible to come to the real thing, you better rest in peace." Don't blame the villain for not speaking well, if you continue like this, you will be exhausted sooner or later. ”

"I don't dare to rest in peace." Ding Ji yawned, and said helplessly: "The Nanyang thief army bullied us with few soldiers, if it is really true that one of the ten falsehoods suddenly comes true, nine out of ten will attack our camp, and our camp has not been built completely, so I dare to rest assured?" ”

Helplessly, Ding Ji comforted his own soldiers in turn and said: "Two more nights of hard work, two more days at most, our camp can be built and perfected, and then we can rest at ease during the day, and it will be much easier at night." ”

Facts have proved that Ding Ji's caution and conscientiousness are very correct, it is about to be the third watch of the night, a guard at the door of the Han army's partial division camp who is dozing, suddenly woke up by an abnormal sound, when he opened his eyes to take a closer look, the Han army soldier was extremely shocked to see that the two companions who were sleeping on the door had fallen to the ground, and the thick door latch had also fallen to the ground, the Han army soldier did not dare to hesitate, and quickly screamed like a pig, "Enemy attack!" Alarm! Call the police! ”

"Kill!"

The shout sounded, the camp gate was quickly pushed open, a group of black shadows shouted and rushed into the camp, without saying a word, the first Han soldier who sounded the alarm was cut to the ground, and then brandished weapons to kill other Han soldiers who were awakened, and then, more black shadows swarmed into the camp, snatched the torches on the door and threw them at the adjacent Han army tent, and threw the grass they brought with them to help burn, adding to the chaos in the Han army camp, and the sound of shouting and killing and alarm gongs also immediately resounded in the front camp of the Han army's partial division.

Thanks to Ding Ji's previous arrangement of the Han army night duty team is still vigilant, hearing the sound of shouting and killing quickly rushed out, this is near the camp gate to catch the sudden Nanyang army robbery camp army, did not give the Nanyang army rushed into the Han army soldiers camp area to kill people and set fire, but because they were still killed by the Nanyang army by surprise, many Han army camp tents near the camp gate were still set on fire by the Nanyang army, and there was a big chaos near the camp gate, everywhere was the fire and smoke, and there were also the soldiers of the two armies who caught each other and killed each other.

At the same time, Ding Ji had also hurriedly rushed out of the sleeping tent, seeing that the Nanyang army really came to the truth in the ten fakes, and successfully broke through the camp gate of the self-army, Ding Ji first scolded, and then did not dare to hesitate, and quickly sent someone to order each battalion, so that all the soldiers of the Han army's partial division got up and assembled, and at the same time, for the sake of prudence, Ding Ji naturally had to send people to the main camp of the Han army, and reported to Xiang Kang that the camp of his army was suddenly attacked by the enemy.

Ding Ji's army is stationed eight miles away from the west gate of Wancheng, about thirteen or fourteen miles away from the main camp of the Han army, the messenger sent by Ding Ji quickly whipped the horse, and it only took more than half an hour to send the news to the door of the main camp of the Han army, after the Han soldiers immediately reported the situation to Xiang Kang, Xiang Kang did not dare to slack off, and quickly got up to the big tent of the Chinese army to convene the generals to discuss the matter, and then the first to rush to the big tent of the Chinese army to wait for his life, and naturally the general of the Han army who was responsible for leading the army to be on duty at night tonight.

According to common sense, although all Gongsun Tong's soldiers are in a state of readiness, and the dry food torches have been distributed in advance, and they can attack and reinforce the camp of Ding Ji's army at any time, but for the safety of the main camp, Xiang Kang should not use Gongsun Tong's army. But after thinking about it a little, Xiang Kang instructed Gongsun Tong: "Gongsun Tong, immediately take your army out of the camp to assemble, and when you receive an order, immediately go to reinforce Ding Ji's camp!" ”

"The last general will lead the army out of the camp now?" Gongsun Tong was a little dumbfounded, and said in surprise: "Then what should we do about the safety of our main camp?" ”

"Don't worry, this king has his own arrangements!" Xiang Kang replied, and then advised: "Remember, although the Nanyang thief army is sneaking up on Ding Ji's camp, we must prevent them from sending reinforcements at the encirclement point, and after you send troops to save Ding Ji's camp in a while, you are likely to be ambushed by the Nanyang thief army." If this is the case, don't panic, take your army to meet the battle with all your might, just deal with the Nanyang thief army who ambushed you, if the Nanyang thief army is defeated, chase and kill with all your might! You don't have to think about other issues, this king will make arrangements! ”

Seeing that Xiang Kang had made up his mind, Gongsun Tong did not dare to slack off, and immediately rushed out to lead the army under his command out of the camp to assemble Hou Ming, Xiang Kang ordered his own soldiers to beat the drum immediately, so that all the main soldiers of the Han army got up and prepared for battle, and then immediately after, the Han army general Zhong Liwu rushed into the Chinese army's big tent for the second time, Xiang Kang did not hesitate, and immediately ordered Zhong Liwu to organize the army under his command, and took over the task of protecting the main camp of the Han army from Gongsun Tong's army, and Zhong Liwu's army immediately entered the combat post to strictly prevent the Nanyang army from sneaking up on the main camp of the Han army.

Another Han army general, Long He, was the third person to come to Xiang Kang to wait for orders, Xiang Kang drank endlessly, and ordered Long He to immediately lead the men and horses of his headquarters to assemble in the south gate of the camp and wait for orders. Then, Xiang Kang ordered Zeng Ji and Chong Jun to lead 5,000 troops out of the camp and rush to the north and west gates of Wancheng respectively to prepare for battle, and asked them to resolutely engage in battle once they encountered the enemy, without any hesitation. In the end, Xiang Kang ordered Guan Ying to lead the main force of the Han cavalry to assemble, and also assembled in the north gate of the camp, serving as the general reserve of the Han army, ready to reinforce the Han army at any time.

The Han army, civil and military, were all stunned by Xiang Kang's arrangements, and even Chen Ping, who was already a roundworm in Xiang Kang's stomach, couldn't help but say: "King, it's too exaggerated, right?" It's just that General Ding Ji's camp was attacked, and we don't even know how many troops the enemy has dispatched, so we don't need to send so many troops in one go, right? ”

"Because I don't know how Han Xin's traitor is arranged, and how he is going to fight!" Xiang Kang replied confidently and said: "So there is no way, we can only rely on the soldiers, rely on our strength advantage to make the most thorough preparations, and reduce ten meetings with one force, so that Han Xin's traitorous tricks cannot be carried out!" ”

"But if the Nanyang thief army only dispatched all the way to attack General Ding Ji's camp, and we worked so hard, would it make our soldiers work in vain?" Zhang Liang questioned.

"It won't be in vain, our camp will be built soon, this is Han Xin's traitor's last chance, he will definitely not send only one army to fight a camp robbery battle that is not absolutely certain." Xiang Kang sneered and said: "Take a step back, even if the Nanyang army really only dispatched one route of soldiers and horses, we will not work in vain, why don't you think about it, even if we only annihilate two thousand Nanyang thief army tonight, how much pressure can we reduce when attacking the city?" When attacking the city, if we want to destroy the two thousand Nanyang thief army, how much more will it cost?! ”

Zhang Liang closed his mouth, and Xiang Kang ordered the generals of the Han army to follow the order immediately, and ordered Gongsun Tong, who had already assembled out of the camp, to immediately lead the army to set off and rush to the camp of Ding Ji's army at full speed to rescue. And then, Xiang Kang personally picked up the pen and quickly wrote a handwritten order to Ding Ji, asking Ding Ji to immediately divide half of his forces to launch a counterattack after stabilizing his position, and make every effort to eliminate the Nanyang Army that attacked the Han army's partial division camp, and also asked Ding Ji to chase and kill to the end, and he must not miss the precious fighter plane in the field battle with the Nanyang Army!

Still after asking Xu Ji to send the fast horse to send the warrant away, Xiang Kang sat up straight and said with a hideous expression: "Han Xin, this king knows that I may not be able to win you by playing tactics, but it doesn't matter, I have more soldiers than you, and my capital is thicker than yours, even if I take the soldiers, I will pile you to death!" ”

…………

At the same time on the north gate of Wancheng, Liu Laosan and Han Xin had already received the news that their own army had successfully attacked the camp of the Han army, but Liu Laosan was not much happy, on the contrary, he was still a little restless, constantly looking at the direction of the main camp of the Han army in the north, Han Xin saw his thoughts, and said comfortingly: "King, don't worry, Xiang Kang's traitor let Ding Ji Pifu garrison the west gate of Wancheng, and it was clear that he was using Ding Ji Pifu as a bait to lure us out of the city to sneak attack Ding Jipifu's camp." Now that we have swallowed the bait, and Ding Jipifu's camp is really in danger, Xiang Kang's traitor will definitely not sit idly by, and it won't be long before he will send reinforcements to Ding Jipifu. ”

"Of course the king knows that." Liu Laosan, who had a very keen sixth sense, frowned and replied: "But I don't know why, this king always feels a little uneasy, and he can't let go of his heart." ”

"Normal, after all, the enemy is strong and I am weak, and anyone who changes will be uneasy." Han Xin smiled and said, "But it doesn't matter, as long as tonight passes, the situation will become favorable to us." As long as we can successfully defeat the thief army tonight and frustrate the spirit of the Han thief, Xiang Kang's traitor will have to make adjustments tomorrow, as long as he readjusts the deployment of the army, then we can not only win more time, but also get more opportunities to break the enemy. ”

Liu Laosan nodded reluctantly, and comforted himself in his heart: "Don't worry, although the strength of the Han thieves is far above our army, but the enemy situation is unknown in the middle of the night, Xiang Kang's little traitor will definitely not risk sending too many soldiers and horses, and we are so well prepared, and we have already succeeded in sneaking up on the camp of the Han thieves, and tonight is only a matter of how much to win." As long as the thief wins tonight, the next battle will be easy to fight. ”

After a period of time, in the northwest direction of Wancheng, there was a row of fires, and it was very quickly from the direction of the main camp of the Han army to the direction where the camp of the Han army was located, which proved that Xiang Kang had indeed sent reinforcements, and rushed to the camp of the Han army's Ding Ji Department overnight to rescue, Liu Laosan was overjoyed and blurted out: "Okay! The thieves really sent reinforcements overnight! ”

"Sure enough, it was dispatched." Han Xin also smiled slightly and said, "Next, it depends on how our soldiers fight." ”

The light of the fire that Liu Laosan and Han Xin saw was, of course, the light emitted by the torches carried by the Han army Gongsun Tong's department, and after leading 6,000 troops out of the camp according to Xiang Kang's order, Gongsun and his department took a straight line and rushed directly to the camp of the Han army's partial division to rescue. At the same time, the Han army's Longhe Department had also assembled in the Han army's camp gate, but he had not yet received Xiang Kang's order and had not yet walked out of the camp.

As Xiang Kang expected, when Gongsun Tong's department rushed to the northwest corner of Wancheng, in the black ground on both sides of the road, there was a sudden killing sound, and the two Nanyang army ambushed the soldiers left and right, fortunately, Gongsun Tong had clearly told the soldiers under his command before, saying that the army was likely to be ambushed by the enemy when it left the camp late at night, and asked the Han soldiers to be ready to respond at any time, so although the ambush of the Nanyang army was extremely sudden, the Han soldiers were not too flustered, but after a little stunned, The officers and men of the Han army immediately followed Gongsun Tong's prior requirements and immediately contracted their positions to fight in clusters, trying not to give the Nanyang army a chance to cut off their own troops.

But Gongsun Tong's department can only do this, because the ambush of the Nanyang Army from the left and right is the elite troops led by the two fierce generals of the Nanyang Army, Fan Hao and Zhou Bo, not only are well equipped with strong combat effectiveness, but also have incomparably rich battlefield experience, between the left and right hedges, the waist of the Han Army is still under tremendous pressure immediately, and many soldiers are forced to fight alone, although the front and rear teams of the Han Army are also quickly moving closer to the waist, but they still cannot block the crazy impact of the Nanyang Army, and the Nanyang Army is successfully cut in half and forced to divide into two teams to fight separately, Nanyang sergeant took the opportunity to slash and kill, frantically stabbed and slashed the Han sergeant who failed to escape back to the self-army brigade in time, and Fan Hao was even holding a dog slaughtering knife, and killed directly at the banner of Gongsun Tong.

"Kill! Completely defeat this gang of thieves! The sooner the better! Kill ——! ”

During this period, under the leadership of Long Ji, 10,000 Han troops have also begun to line up out of the camp, but what caught Long He off guard was that his army had just left the camp for a small half, and the Yushui River in the southeast was suddenly shouting, and an unknown number of Nanyang troops suddenly shouted to kill, most of the soldiers of the Long and Army were still in the camp, blocked by the barracks built by the army, and could not immediately go out of the camp to participate in the battle, so they could only rely on the front team to meet the battle, and they were immediately caught off guard by the Nanyang army, and the formation was immediately in chaos.

The situation was reported to Xiang Kang, Xiang Kang was not surprised, and immediately ordered Guan Ying, who had just been ready to attack, to lead the Han cavalry out of the camp from the north gate, and rushed to the southwest to reinforce Gongsun Ti, and ordered Zeng Ji and Chongjun, who had just been ready to attack, to immediately leave the camp from the west gate, and rushed to the northwest two gates of Wancheng to prepare for the battle according to the original plan, and ordered Zhu Jishi to lead 10,000 troops to the west gate to take over as the general reserve. In the end, he shouted: "Go and give Long He an order, tell him to go out of the camp with all his strength to fight, and he is absolutely not allowed to retreat into the camp, no matter how much it costs, he must kill the Nanyang thief army ambush outside the camp for me!" ”

After the order was delivered, the main camp of the Han army also exploded in the middle of the night, and the four camp gates of the two battalions in the northwest were opened at the same time. Long and this side is also like a chicken blood, without knowing the number of enemies coming, he resolutely went out of the camp to counterattack, and fought with the Nanyang army that suddenly killed the sky and the moon was dark, and the stars and moon were dark.

The change of the plot is also completely out of the script of the great director Han Xin, in the shout, first of all, the fastest mobile Han cavalry joined the ambush battlefield of the Nanyang Army, fiercely brandishing a saber and slashing the elite of the Nanyang Army who was besieging the Han Army Gongsun Tong's department, Gongsun Tong also took the opportunity to launch a counterattack, first with the help of the cavalry of the own army, and then immediately with the Han cavalry to flank the enemy on the battlefield before and after, although because the Nanyang Army on this battlefield is full of elite soldiers, it failed to gain any upper hand, But it also successfully reversed the previous completely passive disadvantage.

The same is true for the Long and the army, according to common sense, the attack in the middle of the night can not echo before and after, and the Long and the army should withdraw to the camp and reorganize the team is the right choice, but because of Xiang Kang's resolute counterattack order, the Long and the army resolutely rushed out at all costs, and after paying a certain price, finally all the mess was killed out of the camp, and the Nanyang army outside the camp was entangled with the ambush soldiers outside the camp, and gradually occupied the upper hand on the battlefield by relying on the advantage of troops.

And Ding Jijun's side is similar, after surviving the initial panic stage with difficulty, and gradually stabilizing the position, Ding Jijun also relied on the advantage of strength to gradually expel the enemy from the camp, and then after a while, the Han army herald who was deliberately let go by the Nanyang army ambush rushed to Ding Ji's camp, and handed over Xiang Kang's handwritten warrant to Ding Ji's face, Ding Ji, who had been tossed by the Nanyang army for three nights, was of course ecstatic and roared, and immediately organized the army to fight back with all his might, and did not hesitate to chase and kill out of the camp in the middle of the night. Venture after the enemy who has just been expelled from the camp.

What caught Liu Laosan and Han Xin off guard the most, of course, was that they left the camp from the west gate of the main camp of the Han army, and rushed directly to the Han army at the north gate of Wancheng to prepare for battle, so that when he saw the Han army rushing quickly, even Han Xin couldn't help but exclaim, "Xiang Kang traitor is crazy? Four watches in the middle of the night, and the battlefield is so chaotic, how dare he send troops to Wancheng City? ”

"This king finally knows why he has been restless." Liu Laosan's face was gloomy, and he said: "We underestimated Xiang Kang's traitor's determination to take the opportunity to fight in the field, his total strength is more than four times ours, no matter how chaotic the battlefield is, as long as he immediately invests enough troops, he can pile us to death by relying on the soldiers!" Don't lose two for one! Tonight, we had a hard time. ”

With a snort, Han Xin slammed his fist on the arrow stack in front of him, and said with a painful expression: "The loss is that there are few soldiers, if our troops are more sufficient, even if there are 10,000 more troops, we can also gain a partial advantage in troops and win tonight's battle!" ”
