Volume 2 Once the hero draws his sword, it is another ten years of calamity Chapter 71 Sentinel Battle
Chapter Seventy-One, Sentinel Battle
Even after killing Chen Xiucai, Zuo Liangyu still felt that his anger had not subsided.
He was not only angry that Chen Xiucai wanted to kill him, but he Zuo Liangyu himself knew that there were countless people in the world who wanted to kill him. He didn't care at all. But Chen Xiucai's identity is different.
Chen Xiucai and Zuo Liangyu had already met twice, both in the name of the envoys of the gentry in the city, and suddenly this one came out. made Zuo Liangyu suddenly feel that the internal response of the gentry in the city seemed to be unreliable. He wanted to cooperate with the outside and attack Yuncheng, but his plan to break Yuncheng failed, and his heart was even more depressed.
He suddenly felt a hard under his feet, it turned out that he stepped on a thin blade, this thin blade was used by Chen Xiucai just now, if it weren't for Zuo Liangyu's habit of wearing soft armor, his life would be gone today, thinking of this, he couldn't help but be furious, and said: "Behead the guards who searched your body." ”
"Yes."
Far away to this city gate, the left camp set up a bamboo pole. It was Chen Xiucai's head, in the cold wind, constantly turning.
He Ying looked at the head of Chen Xiucai, and he sighed: "Brother Chen, I can't stand you." ”
He Ying sent Chen Xiucai to assassinate Zuo Liangyu, but he didn't have the idea of doing it at all, but just wanted Chen Xiucai's last words to be passed on to Zuo Liangyu, and in Zuo Liangyu's heart, the influence of the gentry in the city defending the city for thieves was implemented. Thinking about it, with Zuo Liangyu's temper, he will never let go of the gentry in Yuncheng.
He Ying secretly said in his heart: "It's time to negotiate terms with them." "He Ying regrets it now, when he broke the city, he killed too little, leaving such an unstable factor.
At this moment, He Ying must carry out the last part of the plan, that is, to use Zuo Liangyu to slaughter the city and threaten to make these gentry temporarily available to him. However, he was extremely aggrieved in his heart, and he gave him a chance, and they must be worse than falling into the left camp.
Not to mention the things in the south, after Zhang Xuan and his party left the county seat, the brigade was divided into two columns, and the two carriages ran parallel on the official road. Zhang Xuan led the group to the front. After a while, someone Pegasus came to report, nothing else, it was Luo Dai who came back.
When Zhang Xuan saw Luo Dai, he was taken aback, but saw that Luo Dai was covered in blood. He hurriedly asked, "How is it and is it hurt?" ”
Luo Dai said: "It's all the blood of the official dog." I'm fine. Despite this, there was still a little warmth in his heart, and he said: "I have found out the left battalion, the left battalion is about fifty or sixty thousand people, the clothes and armor are distinct, two-thirds of the old battalion heads of Zuo Liangyu, and one-third are newly surrendered colleagues, one of them is still my old acquaintance, followed the palm of the plate to mix, actually surrendered to the official army, I pretended to defect, took his head, and at this moment has alarmed the left battalion." ”
Zhang Xuan was in a hurry and said: "I have already told you, just let you find out the movements of the left army, why did you act without permission?" ”
"I can't let him tarnish the name of the palm plate, don't let people who don't know think that my Cao Ying's men and horses have joined the official army." Luo Dai said.
Zhang Xuan couldn't help Luo Dai, firstly, Luo Dai was also Luo Rucai's relative no matter what he said, and secondly, he also loved Luo Dai's talent, he said it lightly, but how to blend into the enemy camp, kill the enemy's main general, and then break out. Even if these people are defenseless, it is not an easy task to complete, to be able to do such a thing, not only must be strong in martial arts, but also bold and careful, Zhang Xuan has such a talent around him.
"Where are the enemy troops?" Zhang Xuan asked.
"I don't know." "I just know that they didn't chase after me," said Luo Dai. ”
At this moment, Zhang Xuan had an urge to draw his sword and cut Luo Dai under the horse.
According to Zhang Xuan's original intention, it should be settled in the Xiaoshang River silently, just above the Xiaoshang River, there is an ancient bridge in the Song Dynasty, which is the Xiaoshang Bridge, which is the only way between Linying and Yuncheng. Without blocking this bridge, Zhang Xuan would not be able to restrain the left army at all.
Zhang Xuan said: "Can you still fight? ”
Luo Dai's breathing was sudden and rapid, and under his fierce battles, his consumption was not small, and his underwear was soaked. Just calmed down your breath. Whether he can fight or not, he himself knows, but he has always been so strong that he will never say the word "can't". Lang Sheng said: "How can you not fight, Lao Tzu, I can kill people at any time." ”
Zhang Xuan said: "Okay, I'll transfer all the horse teams. I'll send it all to you. Zhang Xuan saw that the horses under Luo Dai's seat were already sweating profusely. Turned over and dismounted, smoothed the horse on Dahei's neck, handed the reins to Luo Dai, and said, "Call me back now, and you must not let the left army occupy Xiaoshang Bridge." Not even if you die. ”
"Lao Tzu knows." Luo Dai didn't get off the horse at all, jumped from his horse and fell on Da Hei, as soon as he pulled the reins, Da Hei hissed, his front hooves raised, Luo Dai roared, and said: "If you are not afraid of death, kill back with Lao Tzu." ”
The lowest soldiers like to follow such generals the most, with high skills, leading the way and never fearing.
For a while, Zhang Xuan's personal guards, plus the horses in the army, and the horse team brought back by Luo Dai. One hundred and fifty horses. Zhang Xuan has a lot of livestock in his hands, but ordinary animal power is a completely different concept from a charging war horse. The war horses that Zhang Xuan could take out were the two hundred or so that Luo Rucai gave him.
Zhang Xuan looked at Luo Dai and killed him again. His expression was extremely solemn. He knew that Luo Dai was very dangerous. He could only count on Luo Dai's bravery.
"General, get into the carriage." Qin Meng followed behind Zhang Xuan and said.
"Nope." Zhang Xuan said: "Increase the speed, now everyone runs for me." ”
Zhang Xuan knew that running and marching was a big taboo.
Without him, the ancient wars relied on physical strength.
It's not as good as modern times, no matter how tired you are, you always have the strength to shoot. And the rapid march ran dozens of miles, and after reaching the battlefield, all the soldiers turned into soft-footed shrimp. That's not a fight at all, that's giving people heads.
But now, Zhang Xuan can only do this, after all, before he set off, he didn't think of Luo Dai's scaring snake at all. After all, in his mind, from Linying to Xiaoshangqiao, it is only thirty miles away, and it can be reached in one morning, even if Zuo Liangyu finds out, wait for the army to counterattack. It will also take a while, enough for Zhang Xuan to gain a firm foothold.
At this moment, he realized that what it meant to be a plan that could not keep up with the changes. What made him even more uneasy was how Zuo Liangyu reacted? He only felt that there was a fog in front of him, and he couldn't see through it at all.
"Sure enough, fighting a war in ancient times was a gamble." Zhang Xuan secretly said in his heart: "I bet that Zuo Liangyu is focusing on attacking Yuncheng, and I don't care about the harassment of Luo Dai and his party." It's just a matter of driving away. ”
When Luo Dai turned back again, he saw from a distance that hundreds of horsemen were resting their horses near the Xiaoshang Bridge. Only a few riders were on guard, and the others were either resting their horses or drinking their horses again.
In a sense, Zhang Xuan was right.
Zuo Liangyu didn't care about these surrendered soldiers who were attached to him at all, and a surrendering general was killed. After Zuo Liangyu learned that the attacking cavalry was less than 100 cavalry, he immediately didn't care, just let the people below drive these people away, and not affect the siege.
In ancient warfare, it was often said that the water in the siege could not be drained, and even flies could not fly. But in reality it's not like that.
Unless, in the event of a great war, a wall was erected from the outside and the city was enclosed. Otherwise, it will be difficult to make it waterless. The long-range weapons that can be used to block in this era are only bows and arrows and artillery, and their accuracy and range are also very worrying.
Even when the siege was at its tightest, people often went out of the city to communicate with reinforcements, which is why they were there.
Therefore, the harassment of the team, Zuo Liangyu was not surprised, he just ordered a team of cavalry to chase after him. Then the vigilance of the night was strengthened, so there were not many cavalry of the left army who appeared here. When Luo Dai saw this situation, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said loudly: "Follow me." ”
He rushed to the front first, and more than a hundred horsemen around him rushed over with Luo Dai.
Countless horses' hooves rumbled on the ground. The ground trembled slightly. If this is the case, the cavalry of the left army cannot find out, it is a fool. They rushed to their horses. Tidy up the team, and most importantly get your horse running.
