Chapter 148: Soldiers Don't Get Tired of Deceit
It's coming so fast! Zhang Yan's eyes showed a look of surprise, his department had just set up camp here, and Zhao Yi actually sent someone to send a war letter, "Please!" Zhang Yan said in a deep voice.
Guan Yu walked into the barracks with an indifferent face, looking at his nose and nose, looking at his heart, ignoring the 120,000 soldiers in the camp as if they were nothing, his pace was calm and he did not have the slightest panic, and he had the demeanor of an envoy from Shangguo.
Zhang Yan stared at Guan Yu who was walking slowly, and before Zhang Yan could ask, Guan Yu, who had entered the military tent, took out a piece of cloth from his arms and handed it to the soldiers standing beside him, holding the long sword in his hand, staring at Zhang Yan who was in the right position with half-squinted eyes, without saying a word.
Zhang Yanjian raised his eyebrows, and beckoned his soldiers to bring the cloth, but only one word was written on the white silk, "Fight!" ”
There's so much in that word.
Do you dare to fight?
Time and place, I just want to fight.
The blood on Zhang Yan's body was ignited by this word, and she couldn't help but praise, "Okay, Zhao Yi is really courageous!" Then he glanced at Guan Yu, "You go back and tell Zhao Yi that the war will start tomorrow!" ”
Guan Yu nodded slightly in response, turned his head and left here.
Zhang Yan ordered people to circulate this war book to everyone, seeing this war book, everyone's faces were different, Zhang Yan looked around at everyone, slowly spoke, and asked, "What do you think?" ”
From this word, they could feel Zhao Yi's monstrous battle intent and arrogance, and their faces became very ugly, and they sent the cloth back to Zhang Yan's hands, and they were silent one by one.
Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Zhang Yan sighed, "There is only one word in this war book, but there are many meanings expressed, from which you can not only see Zhao Yi's fighting spirit, but also Zhao Yi's determination." There will be a battle between us and the official army, and if we win, the counties and counties of Jizhou will not be able to stop our progress, but if we lose, we will never recover. So we have to win this battle, we have to win it all! ”
Zhao Yi's subordinates came here quickly and did not attack suddenly, which shows that Zhao Yi is a self-respecting person. Zhang Yan's appreciation of Zhao Yi was one more point. He has already put his net worth, life and future on tomorrow's battle, and ordered his soldiers to recharge their energy to deal with tomorrow's life-and-death battle.
And Zhao Yi, who was praised by Zhang Yan for his self-respecting identity, was sitting on the ground with Tai Shici and other generals at this time, and he didn't even hold up the military tent, discussing the military aircraft.
Seeing Guan Yu come back safely, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei's faces showed joy, and the hanging heart finally let go. Previously, Zhao Yi sent Guan Yu to deliver the message, but Liu Bei and Zhang Fei actually refused, but in Zhao Yi's army, military orders must be obeyed. Liu Bei and Zhang Fei had no reason to refuse, so they could only watch Guan Yu cross their horses and go out of the camp to deliver the letter.
Liu Bei and Zhang Fei personally helped Guan Yu off the horse, looked Guan Yu up and down, and everything was fine. Praise "Good!" Word.
Zhao Yixin said that Second Brother Guan is Second Brother Guan, and that heroic bearing is enough to deter the heroes. He stepped forward with a smile, "Yun Changju has made great contributions, and I will definitely make a lot of notes in the credit book." ”
Guan Yu stroked his long hair, his face was indifferent, and he was not happy because Zhao Yi remembered the merit, but said, "If Bo Lai really wants to perform the gong, please record this merit in the name of the eldest brother." ”
Liu Bei had tears in his eyes and shouted, "Brother Xian!" ”
"Yun Chang is really righteous and thin. Since Yun Chang has this idea, I will do what you wish. Zhao Yi glanced at Guan Yu appreciatively, and then asked, "Does Zhang Yan have anything to say?" ”
"Zhang Yan will meet tomorrow when the two armies will fight a decisive battle." Guan Yu said Zhang Yan's appointment time.
Tomorrow? Hearing this, Zhao Yi's eyes flashed, and he immediately beckoned Tai Shici and Murong Fu to "order the soldiers to rest quickly." There will be a big operation in the middle of the night. ”
Tai Shi Ci and Murong Fu bowed down and received the order to prepare. Guan Yu raised his eyebrows, feeling a little strange, "What is the big operation that the general said?" ”
Zhao Yi didn't explain, just smiled: "Yun Chang, don't worry, you will know at night." ”
Seeing Zhao Yi's sly smile, Guan Yu suddenly blessed his heart, and blurted out, "You don't want to rob the camp late at night, do you?" "Both sides have agreed to fight tomorrow. Zhao Yi actually wanted to take the lead by surprise in the middle of the night, which was really untrustworthy.
Seeing that Guan Yu guessed what he was thinking, Zhao Yi did not hide it, but generously admitted: "Yun Chang is right. ”
"But the two sides have agreed on a time." Guan Yu reminded Zhao Yi and hoped that Zhao Yi would abide by the agreement.
Zhao Yijian raised his eyebrows, "If it can reduce the casualties of the soldiers, I would rather bear this infamy." Isn't there a saying in Sun Tzu's Art of War that soldiers don't get tired of deceit? If you stick to the situation, you will not be tying your hands and feet. ”
Guan Yu naturally knew that marching and fighting was not used for child's play, but he always felt that this move was not fair. He didn't say anything to refute it, but left with a sigh.
Looking at Guan Yu's back as he walked away, Zhao Yi shook his head slightly, Guan Yu is a general but not a general. After placing his soldiers properly, Zhao Yi called Tai Shici and other generals to his front to discuss the plan for night battles, who would lead the team, and the order of the soldiers. After finalizing the plan, Zhao Yi asked Tai Shici and the others to take a rest, and called Guan Yu to stop, "Yun Chang, if you are the vanguard in today's battle, it will definitely increase the chances of our army winning." ”
"Why?" If Tai Shici and the others heard this, they would definitely not bow down and receive the order. Guan Yu was different, he was very disgusted with Zhao Yi's behavior, so he asked this question.
Zhao Yi said a very valid reason: "Because among the soldiers and generals, you are the only one who has surveyed the route of the march." ”
"You ......" Guan Yu opened his mouth and didn't speak, and the Qinglong Yanyue Knife in his hand turned around and bowed to receive the order.
Time passed quickly in his sleep, and it was already late at night, and the centurions in each battalion woke up the soldiers one by one, dressed neatly and gathered at the school grounds.
The soldiers' helmets reflected a faint cold light in the hazy moonlight, and the soldiers walked out of the camp in unison under the general's leadership.
Zhang Yan's camp was extremely silent, except for the footsteps of the patrol soldiers, there was no other sound, the soldiers of Yuanmen kept dozing off with their spears in their hands, staring into the distance with sleepy eyes, and waited until the replacement soldiers came, and these yawning soldiers went back to the camp to rest as if they had been amnesty.
The night breeze was slightly cold, and the soldiers rubbed their palms, and came to the bonfire with only dark red charcoal left in their spears to keep warm, chatting with the soldiers around them, and the most talked about was naturally tomorrow's battle.
They are not talking about who will win and who will lose tomorrow, but they are talking about what they will do if they can survive tomorrow's battle, and these soldiers will not have the share of promotion and wealth, and the most talked about is naturally their mother-in-law, children and land.
There was a strange sound of "rustling", and the soldiers turned their heads to look at the endless darkness in the distance, and one soldier took his spear in his hand and walked out of the camp with his head probed, but he didn't see anything.
As soon as he turned his head and wanted to enter the camp gate, he heard a sharp sound of breaking through the air, and before he could look back, a dense rain of arrows instantly filled the chests of him and several soldiers in front of him.
The screams of these men before they died woke up the sleeping soldiers in the camp, "Enemy attack! The two words resounded in the night sky, and the soldiers dressed and took their weapons in a panic.
And at this time, the sound of horses' hooves like thunder and the excited neighing of war horses were getting closer and closer, and the Black Mountain army had just taken a step out of the curtain with soldiers in hand, and his head was cut off by the galloping cavalry.
The speed advantage of the cavalry was fully exerted at this moment, and tens of thousands of cavalry drilled into the camp of the Montenegrin army like a steel knife, and the Montenegrin army was wounded by the blade when it resisted, and the body was covered with horizontal and vertical wounds and fell to the ground.
The shouts and screams shook the world, and once the Montenegrin army, which had not undergone special training, did not have the command of the general, it was like a sheep waiting to be slaughtered, running back and forth in the barracks, without thinking of resisting with the weapons in their hands.
When Zhang Yan walked out of the camp tent, he saw the fire in the barracks, and the sound of shouting and killing filled his ears, he staggered back two steps with a pale face, and pulled out the sword in his hand, "Resist me!" Saying that, Zhang Yan took the lead and rushed over.
With the influx of officers and troops of Zhao Yi's brigade, the expressions of these Montenegrin troops who were panicked to flee for their lives changed greatly, and the Montenegrin army was killed and suffered heavy casualties for a while, and they put their minds on tomorrow's battle, and they were awakened by the shouting of killing in their sleep, so they naturally couldn't react and were caught off guard by the officers and soldiers.
"Only punish the evil, and the soldier can lay down his weapon to avoid death!" The officials and soldiers shouted one after another, under the bloody slaughter of the officers and soldiers, this sentence was like a beacon in the bitter sea, so that the Montenegrin army shrouded in fear suddenly knew the direction, and as one or two Montenegrin soldiers laid down their weapons, hundreds of Montenegrin troops also laid down their weapons.
Zhang Yan, who was covered in blood and rushed to kill in the official army, saw the soldiers of his department put down their weapons in groups, his face turned pale, and the general trend of his department was gone!
The subordinate guards will protect Zhang Yan behind him, "Lord, now the general trend has gone, the last general will lead his troops to kill a bloody road for the lord, if the lord can escape today, he can make a comeback one day!" ”
After two hours of melee, when the sun shone on the ground through the clouds, the battle was over, the bodies of the Montenegrin army were lying all over the camp, the officers and soldiers were taking the captured Montenegrin troops to other places, and the number of officers and troops who destroyed the enemy was counting, but it was certain that the officers and troops had won a complete victory.
Liu Bei walked over with a happy face and patted the cavalry war horse, "The victory in this battle is thanks to the strong horsepower, if it is an ordinary war horse, it will not be able to cope with such a long time of rushing and killing." Looking at this very war horse, Liu Bei's eyes showed envy, how good it would be if he also had a fine horse.
When Liu Bei left from Anxi County that day, he almost left the house. The three brothers had neither soldiers nor money or food. Therefore, Liu Bei could only think about it. Came to Zhao Yi with a smile: "Congratulations to the general, for his achievements in the first battle." "The Montenegrin army, which had more than 100,000 soldiers against the imperial court, was exterminated by Zhao Yi in less than a month. This is enough to shock the hearts of those who are about to move. Then Liu Bei said something to Zhao Yi, saying how hard these officers and soldiers were, and they must not belittle the soldiers.
Zhao Yi understood, although Liu Bei reminded Zhao Yi not to disappoint the soldiers, he actually emphasized that he had made a lot of efforts in the war, and you can't forget my credit. Zhao Yi and Liu Bei are both smart people, and there is no need to say some things so thoroughly.
"Xuande, rest assured, I will naturally not treat those who have merit." Zhao Yi gave Liu Bei a reassurance.
