Chapter 289: Temptation 3/3
Hearing the beautiful scene depicted by Han Sui, Lu Bu's face changed several times, and finally turned into joy, he lowered his voice and asked, "How many people can Wen Yue have in his hands?" ”
Han Sui said softly: "My family's troops are mixed in the team transporting grain and grass, and there are hundreds. Coupled with the strong and powerful people in the city who are dissatisfied with Chen Cheng, there can be two thousand people. ”
"Good, good, two thousand people are enough!" Lu Bu was overjoyed, stepped forward to take Han Sui's hand, and said, "You and I join forces, kill Zhao Yun first, and then close the twelve city gates of Chang'an, then great things can be done!" ”
He couldn't wait to ask, "When are we going to do it?" ”
Han Sui smiled and said, "General Lu, don't worry, I will invite the Chinese military officials of the city to a banquet the day after tomorrow, just take the opportunity to make trouble!" ”
Lu Bu's gaze became eager, "Okay, then wait until the day after tomorrow!" ”
Time passes little by little, and the alternation of day and night is still different from the past. The difference is just humans. Indulge in it, and you will feel that time flies. But if you wait anxiously, or do something you don't like, then you will feel like a year.
It's like a beautiful man who calls himself "Fengxi", and he often encounters such a situation. When playing a game, before you know it, time flies. When he looked up, he would exclaim, "It's over, today's word count is not enough, hurry up!" ”
Then I hurried and hurried, and before the specified time, I finally finished a chapter, so I was glad again, "It's okay, it's okay, I'll continue tomorrow!" ”
Sometimes, he also thinks that it is more appropriate to change the name to "cold horn bird".
Around Xiadi, Dong Zhuojun's main force no longer conceals their existence. More than 100,000 troops marched out of the camp together, marching towards the west, and the smoke and dust raised could be seen even from a long distance. Hearing the sound of horses' hooves like thunder in the sky, the expressions on the faces of the generals of the Xiliang Army gradually became serious.
Even though they had been prepared for a long time and were confident that they could defeat the enemy with fewer strikes and more attacks, the formation that Dong Zhuojun had made now was too exaggerated. With so many soldiers and horses gathered together, a large amount of food and various supplies are needed, and the difficulty of command will also be greatly increased. In many cases, too many people can become a burden.
Han Xin said that Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, could only bring 100,000 soldiers and horses at most, but in this era when the general book basically relied on roaring, he could command 100,000 soldiers and horses, which was already in the ranks of famous generals. Liu Bang lost to Xiang Yu in the big melee at the end of Qin, and against others, it was as easy as chopping melons and vegetables.
Chen Cheng thought that he could not command 100,000 people, let alone 100,000 people, as long as it exceeded 50,000, he would assign a part of the troops and horses to the generals under his command to command. Because of the backwardness of the means of communication, it is basically impossible to respond to changes on the battlefield in a timely manner when there are too many people.
He doesn't like to draw a formation map for the generals, at most he gives a general direction, mainly relying on the generals' performance. Chen Cheng's practice was the norm in the Han Dynasty, and the generals who commanded the army generally set up their own shogunate, with all the rights from personnel appointments and dismissals to the formulation of battle plans.
Yan Zhong once served in the shogunate of Huangfu Song, doing work such as staff officers and military advisors. Therefore, Yan Bodao claimed that he was not good at making decisions on the spot, and that was only relative to his resourcefulness. Let him be a general, although it may not be strong, but it will definitely not be bad.
Seeing Dong Zhuojun's big move, Chen Cheng did not defend the camp, but after leaving some infantry to guard his home, he took the main force out of the camp and set up a position outside the camp, preparing to fight Dong Zhuojun hard-to-head.
There are tens of thousands of people, boundless. The 50,000 Xiliang army has almost filled the field of vision. Dong Zhuo's army is 100,000, and the momentum is even more amazing, and the formation is spread out for more than ten miles. On such a vast ground, even if you ride a horse, it takes more than ten or twenty minutes to go back and forth. If you can still make a timely response in this situation, it is definitely not something that can be described by the word "famous".
It took Dong Zhuojun an hour just to unfold, and by the time he approached the Xiliang army, it was almost noon. The battle flag fluttered, the drums and trumpets were noisy, Dong Zhuo stood on the back of the yellow horse, holding a horsewhip, pointing at the Xiliang army on the opposite side, which was also black and oppressive, and laughed: "Chen Cheng'er, known as the Xiliang Overlord, has not fallen into our calculations yet?" ”
He laughed twice, and said: "Chen Wenzheng is known as the overlord of Xiliang, then Wenyou is my Zhang Liang, isn't a certain family Emperor Gaozu now?" This is Xia, that is Chen Cheng's Xiaxia! ”
In the midst of laughter, he burst into tears and ordered the left and right wings to come forward and challenge.
The sound of drums and trumpets sounded again, and Guo Yan and Li Dao each led tens of thousands of soldiers to fight on horseback. Seeing this, Chen Cheng ordered Liang Xing to lead two thousand flying bear hussars, a cavalry battalion, and an infantry battalion to meet the enemy on the left flank; So that Ma Teng led 6,000 soldiers and horses of Anding County to meet the enemy on the right flank.
The Chinese armies on both sides stood still, sitting back and watching fierce battles break out on both flanks. This is the normal state of war between large armies, and it is a rare case to press on it. Although Dong Zhuo's martial arts are not as good as Lu Bu, he has more than ten years of experience in using soldiers, and he is not as good as Huangfu Song, but he also has enough weapons and knowledge.
Previously, Dong Zhongying did not transfer all the soldiers and horses from Bingzhou into Guanzhong, so that he was pressed and beaten by Lu Bu's superior forces, but he also defended as a rock, so that Lu Bu lost a lot of soldiers and horses under the fortified city. After Zhu Jun committed suicide, Lu Zhi died of illness, and Huangfu Song was placed under house arrest, Dong Zhuo can be said to be the oldest group of generals in today's world.
However, old seniority does not mean that the ability to use troops is stronger, and a large number of people does not mean that they will be able to win the war. Otherwise, you don't need to fight with real swords and guns, just show your qualifications and the number of soldiers and horses for comparison.
The left and right wings clashed for a long time, the horses neighed, and the shouts of the soldiers resounded in the sky. Chen Cheng sat on the chariot with a handsome flag, and Liu Qian stood beside him. The two sides fought fiercely, but Chen Cheng was pretending to sleep with his eyes closed. He is very calm, but Liu Qian's heart fluctuates when he watches, and from time to time he will make a sound of sighing or applauding.
That is, she has the status of a princess, otherwise, this kind of behavior would have been reprimanded a long time ago.
"Report!"
The cavalry galloped wildly, restrained the war horse more than ten steps away, and said loudly: "Lord Qi, General Liang Xing has broken through the enemy in front of him, killed seven generals and colonels of the enemy, and captured two general flags!" ”
"Hmm," Chen Cheng opened his eyes, waved his hand, and said, "Got it!" ”
Liang Xing led the Flying Bear Hussar, whose impact power is unparalleled in the world, and it is normal to defeat the enemy.
"Report!"
Another probe horse galloped over, and shouted from afar: "Lord Qi, General Ma Teng has repelled the enemy, and the enemy has sent reinforcements!" ”
Ma Teng is also an old prince, and he has fought with Dong Zhuo before. He has fierce generals like Ma Chao Pound under him, and he has changed a lot of armor and weapons, and defeating the enemy is also a normal play. Since Dong Zhuo has sent reinforcements, he has to move on his side.
He looked left and right, and said by name: "General Zhang Heng went to the right flank to pick up Ma Teng and asked him to withdraw first." I've won for a while, so I'll come back and rest for a while, this battle is still going to be fought. ”
Liang Xing on the left flank led the flying bear hussars to directly penetrate Dong Zhuo's soldiers and horses, making the surrounding enemies all look different. Hearing the situation reported by Tanma, the smile on Dong Zhuo's face disappeared, his face became a little solemn, and he looked at the immovable Xiliang army formation opposite, and said, "When did the Xiliang thief become so brave?" ”
Tanma presented the captured steel armor and said, "General Li Wei asked me to bring the enemy's armor and say ......"
Dong Zhuo took the handle of the knife and tapped it on the steel armor, and asked in the crisp sound of metal impact, "What did he say?" ”
"General Li said that the enemy has strong armor and military strength, and his combat power is amazing, so he asks to retreat for the time being!"
Dong Zhuo stood up on the stirrup and looked towards the right flank, only to see that his soldiers and horses were already retreating backwards before they received orders. He snorted unhappily and said, "Then let him retreat first!" ”
"No!"
Tanma hurried to the right flank, Dong Zhuo turned his head and said to Li Ru and Hu Zhen: "Li Dao is also a general who has followed me for many years, why is it so bad?" ”
Hu Zhen was Dong Zhuo's most trusted general, and replied: "I'm afraid it's not that Li Dao is not helpful, but that the Xiliang army is too strong." ”
He pointed to the enemy battle formation on the opposite side and said: "The Xiliang army is not only strong and strong, but also above us!" If the number is equal, I'm afraid it will be difficult to win! ”
Li Ru also said: "The people of Xiliang are already brave and good at fighting, Chen Wenzheng and Yan Bodao have endured in Liangzhou for four years, and equipped the Xiliang army with solid armor and sharp weapons, which is not easy to get along!" Now it is only a slight setback, our army still has the advantage, and the lord does not need to take it to heart. ”
Dong Zhuo's face was a little pale, and he ordered: "Let the soldiers and horses on both wings withdraw first, wait for our army to press together, and rely on more people to defeat the Xiliang thieves!" ”
The sound of Mingjin sounded in the big array, Guo Yan slashed a Xiliang cavalry to death with a knife, and said hatefully when he heard it: "Why did Mingjin withdraw his troops?" ”
He was a little angry in his heart, but he didn't dare to disobey the military order, and roared to the left and right: "Withdraw, withdraw first!" ”
Dong Zhuojun, who was fighting, abandoned the enemy in front of him one after another and rushed in the direction of his own array. The sound of gongs also sounded in the Xiliang army, and Ma Teng and Zhang Heng led the troops to retreat slowly. Ma Chao refused to give up, and led more than 100 soldiers to chase after Dong Zhuojun and slash and kill.
Seeing this, Pang De hurriedly rode over, blocked Ma Chao, and persuaded: "Major General, Chen Yuanjun is watching from the Chinese army." If you disobey the military order, you are afraid that your head will not be protected! ”
Ma Chao snorted, but he also knew that this time was different from the past. Although he had the intention to kill the enemy, he did not dare to openly violate military law, otherwise, even if he was Ma Teng's son, he would be beheaded for public display. Just now, it can be said that I didn't hear the sound of Mingjin, but now that Pound has come up to admonish, and if he uses this excuse again, it will be a little too much.
Seeing Ma Chao's intentions, Pang De struck while the iron was hot and said: "The enemy army has many soldiers and horses, and the young general is afraid that there will be no chance to make meritorious contributions?" Let's go back and fix it for a while. ”
