Chapter 0317: Flying Enemy Army (2)
Tang Yuan trusted Feng Feima and Zhao Feixiao, and he usually rejected the scouts, and they all reported the news in fifty miles.
The distance of fifty miles can be said to be under the nose of the enemy, but why, the enemy army suddenly appeared ten miles away.
Fifty Mile Scouts didn't notice the enemy's movements?
If the enemy army was marching in a hurry, it would not be possible to have such a terrifying speed, and under the nose of a seasoned scout, it would be impossible for tens of thousands of enemy troops to evade the scout's detection.
Besides, the enemy army has more infantry and less cavalry, and the scouts are all equipment for archers.
With Feng Pegasus' speed, the enemy army was now forty miles away from here at the earliest, but now there was no time to ask about this, Tang Yuan quickly launched a vigilant deployment.
And to make matters worse, the enemy army came with 30,000 men.
The enemy troops and reinforcements in Yunting Mountain poured out their nests, and at this time all that was left in the mountain was some wounded and sick people and people who took care of the wounded.
At this time, in Yangzhou City, he and Han Dang's troops together were a little more than 10,000, and now they wanted to open the four gates of Yangzhou City widely, and then ambush the enemy, Han Dang raised a strong objection.
Tang Yuan said: "Then you go and guard the west gate and the south gate, and leave the north gate and the east gate to me." ”
"Okay!" Although Han Dang suffered a defeat, he brought a lot of people after all, and he led the main force to break out of the encirclement, let him guard the two gates, and did not feel that the troops were insufficient.
Han Dang shouted noisily and rushed to the head of the city with his soldiers, because the city was small, he divided the troops into three echelons and took turns to defend the city wall. Fighting in this way is very beneficial to the defending side of the city, ensuring the physical strength of the soldiers. It seems to be much more than a swarm of bees rushing up, especially in this kind of low city, the enemy's heavy crossbows can shoot up, and the arrow power is enough to kill. If the city is too densely populated, it is purely to give people heads, and Han should not do this kind of thing.
Tang Yuan rode his horse and ran around under the east and north city walls, but found no problems. Calculate the time, there is still time, he deliberately ran to the house where Youlan was to take a look, this time he came in a hurry, and he didn't prepare a maid for her, she squatted in the cellar by herself, and Zhang Ga hid in a nearby house with two small soldiers.
With such a woman by his side, if it weren't for the protection of a cronie like Zhang Ga, he would really be a little uneasy.
"General Gao, the enemy army has already emerged, General Han is in full array, the enemy scouts took a look, and walked away." Zhao Feixiao said.
At this time, Tang Yuan said: "How did you do it, why is it late this time?" ”
"The enemy scouts are very strong, and all of our forward posts have been discovered and killed."
"Oh?" Tang Yuan was taken aback: "Their scouts are well-trained, and maybe there are masters of archery hidden in them." Okay, you keep an eye on the enemy's movements and report back to me at any time. ”
Zhao Feixiao retreated.
After a while, the enemy army was finally arranged, although they still felt that they were well hidden, in fact, Tang Yuan had already seen it clearly.
A team of black-clothed archers of the enemy army quickly approached the north city gate, they looked up, the layout of the Liang army was really sparse, compared to the west gate and the south gate are completely different, at this time the enemy general Guan Jingyun praised the Du Du Dao: Your news is very accurate, break the city today, capture the enemy general vanguard alive, and give you a great credit.
The capital is overjoyed, please let the vanguard charge.
At this time, the second Taibao Li Jinglin's eyes were gloomy.
He suddenly felt that he was speechless, and immediately retreated behind the second Taibao and stopped speaking.
In the past, although the relationship between Guan Jinglin and Guan Jingyun was not good, it was still very passable on the surface, but through this Hanzhong War, the relationship between the two seemed to have deteriorated to the point where it was about to become clear. In fact, his father Bai Yue is not very old, he got married relatively early, only seventeen years older than Bai Du, only forty-seven this year, is the youngest age of a minister in the prime of life, he has always dreamed that the emperor can change his mind, if Guan Xiong can say two words in front of the emperor, mention him, maybe he can make a comeback.
He is still thinking that it is best to be transferred to Guan Xiong's side in the future, so he will not have to look at the faces of the Taibao. Even if you are a servant, it is better than being a captain here. Although it is said that it is better to be a chicken head than a phoenix tail, and the commander is obedient, if it is not the captain of the guard, the ordinary soldier is only a ten-master rank, but the problem is that then Guan Xiong can often see himself and think of his family by the way.
And being a thousand husbands here, with the belligerent character of Liu Xun, the emperor of Shu Han, he will not suffer less in the future.
He can endure just the hardships, but it is so sad to lose his life, or to be disabled, or to become a prisoner of the opposing army.
Ugly for three moments.
A small squad of the enemy army, consisting of two hundred men and led by two centurions, attacked the north and east gates at the same time.
At the same time, fierce artillery fire broke out in the west and south of Yangzhou City, and the Shu Han fire and thunder were fired out by catapults, which were used to deal with the soldiers at the head of the city, which was very effective.
But the shortcoming of that thing is also obvious, that is, it can't hit accurately.
The momentum was very loud, but it didn't hurt a few people, and Qi Tang Yuan found that the shortcomings of Shu Han's fire and thunder were not only a matter of design accuracy, but also a questionable burning ability.
That thing can only kill people at close range, and it can't cause widespread burning.
Could it be that the enemy didn't think to wrap the pine oil outside the fire and thunder?
"Report to the general, the enemy has begun to attack from the west and south gates."
The scout came to report, Tang Yuan just waved his hand and let him go down.
Liu Zhan wondered: "This is very strange, the north gate and the east gate are obviously not fortified, why do they still fight the west gate and the south gate?" ”
Li Xian sneered: "What's so strange about this, bluffing." ”
Nalan said: "Not necessarily, I think the two Taibao are planning to eat us all in one bite, and while attracting Han Dang's troops to defend the city, they will rush in from the north gate and the east gate." He wants to take advantage of the large number of people, even if we set up an ambush here, he plans to eat us in one bite. ”
"In the face of absolute strength, some skills are fists and legs." Tang Hu snorted.
"Tang Hu, why are you still here?" Tang Yuan said, "Your role is crucial, hide quickly." ”
"Oh, don't worry, my soldiers have already hidden. As long as the enemy army comes quickly, my Tang Hu's cavalry will let them have no return. Hey, Xiaofeng, I'm not bragging to you, I feel like I'm invincible in the world now. Even if it's in front of me, I don't take it seriously. ”。
"Don't brag here, delay, be careful I cut off your □!"
"Damn, are you so unkind?" Tang Hu pretended to be startled, shrunk his shoulders and left.
