Chapter 46 Crash
The loess town prospered because of its geographical location, and it was steep because of the city walls. When the flood came, the moat became a thoroughfare, and the nearly ten-meter city wall suddenly lost its role. And for the Chu army defending the city, what was lost was not only the city wall, rolling wood and stones, hot pot cannons, all the sharp weapons for defending the city, except for stone throwers and bows and crossbows, could not be used. And the water level is gradually leveling with the head of the city. The Zhou army only needed to jump lightly on the boat to enter the city and fight with the Chu army defending the city.
The siege warfare turned into an approximate field battle. In addition to the quality and combat effectiveness of the army, field warfare also has a great deal to do with the number of troops.
People, after all, are not machines. Even if it is a machine, there are times when it breaks down. When the Zhou army continued to arrive, the Chu army, which was fighting to the death, gradually felt fatigued. Zhang Zhong wielded a big sword in the chaotic army, and there was a bright red patch everywhere on his body and face, with the blood of the enemy and his own. Even on his eyelids, there was a little bit of red, and the whole world was a red color.
"Commander Zhang, there are more and more enemies, let's retreat to the outpost." Looking at the red-eyed appearance of Zhang Zhong, Li Zhen couldn't help but remind.
Although the chapter was covered in blood, he was still conscious. While fighting, he asked loudly, "Have you transported everything?" ”
"A striking mine was placed on the outpost just now, and everything was transported. It's time for us to withdraw. ”
Zhang Zhong slashed twice in hatred, and shouted loudly: "Brothers, follow me to withdraw." As he spoke, he rushed left and right for a while, gathering the Chu army together as much as possible, and retreated to the east.
With the eastward retreat of the Chu army, the banner of the word "Gao" finally fluttered high at the head of the loess town. Since Zhao Kuangyin and Zhang Yongneng both went to Lingzhou, Guo Rongxian's number one general became Gao Huaide. This Gao Huaide is also from a military family, and his father is a famous general Gao Xingzhou during the Five Dynasties.
Standing on the head of Loess Town, listening to the reports of his subordinates, Gao Huaide's resolute face couldn't help but shake his head, but the elite soldiers in white under his command rushed up, and fought with these two or three hundred Chu troops for two quarters of an hour before they were defeated, and their losses were not small. This Chu army really lives up to its reputation, if it is only infantry combat, this Chu army is really no less than the white-clothed army.
How did Gao Huaide return to Loess Town? After Chu and Shu successively sent troops, the Guanzhong area on the western front began to fully implement Wang Pu's plan, and his plan was divided into three steps, first, to make concessions to the Shu army on the western front, to retreat the Guanzhong army in the area of Chang'an, to keep a stronghold in Fengxiang City, and to use the Shu army's successive victories to make Ding Sijin mistakenly think that his flank was safe. Then, in response to Ding Sijin's dispatch of troops to Shenzhou, he sent troops out of Wuguan to enter Dengzhou of Chu State, and made the appearance of encircling Wei to save Zhao to reduce the pressure on Shenzhou. In this way, in order to ensure the safety of Dengzhou, Ding Sijin could only transfer garrisons from Xiangzhou, Junzhou and other places to Dengzhou to garrison. In the third step, taking advantage of the emptiness of Junzhou, Ding Sijin's attention was focused on Dengzhou and Shenzhou, and suddenly attacked Junzhou. Junzhou was captured by the Great Zhou, so the siege of Shenzhou was relieved. Because at that time, Ding Sijin couldn't help but return to the army, and if he didn't return to the army, there would be two bad consequences, Dengzhou was not guaranteed, and Xiangzhou and other grain-producing areas were destroyed by Zhou soldiers. The fourth step is to turn the head of the gun and encircle and annihilate the Shu army under Fengxiang City, and the fifth step is to pursue the Shu army, seize the land of the four states of Longyou, and consolidate Guanzhong.
Gao Huaide came to Loess Town, representing that Wang Pu's first two military judgments have been completely successful, the only fly in the ointment is that Dengzhou actually sent troops to Wuguan to meet the white-clothed army out of Wuguan on a narrow road, this point, the senior generals in Guanzhong, all believe that this is a response of the Chu army to the Shu army, in fact, it is to make the white-clothed army unable to concentrate on dealing with the Shu army. This explanation is completely reasonable, because once the Chu army captured Wuguan, then Shangzhou was under the nose of the Chu army, and the area between Shangzhou and Chang'an was a key area in Tuntian. In order to protect the Tuntian policy, then the white-clothed army could not divide a part of the army to recapture Wuguan.
So, Gao Huaide came to Loess Town.
But on the other hand, judging from the military plan of the Chu State, its intention was to seize Jinzhou and put Chang'an under its own troops, first, to rescue the Shu State and protect the safety of the Longyou region, and secondly, to do everything on its own and to be able to send troops to harass the Guanzhong region at any time. Ding Sijin and the generals of the Chu army's middle road camp did not think that the white-clothed army was "Xiang Zhuang dancing the sword, intended to Pei Gong", or "Ming repaired the plank road, and secretly Chen Cang", and they clearly wanted to attack Dengzhou, but actually wanted to seize Junzhou. In order to further reduce the attention of the Jinzhou side, Ding Sijin also lost the army of Loess Town and even Junzhou with great fanfare.
Based on the above judgment, Chu Jun believed that his plan to seize Jinzhou should be able to be implemented smoothly. Lu Jiang, the defense envoy of the 2o7 division, quietly infiltrated Junzhou with his army, because Junzhou dodged and hid in the mountains of ten thousand people, which was also extremely easy. The 2O7 Division was waiting, waiting for the Shu army to be defeated, and when the elite of the white-clothed army entered the pursuit, the 2O7 division fell from the sky, captured Jinzhou with fire, and then went north into Kou Chang'an, killing the white-clothed army by surprise.
In other words, Chu and Zhou, in the same place, used almost the same strategy, and they both wanted to give each other a ruthless blow at a critical moment. Even if you can't kill someone, you have to let the other party stay in your throat from now on.
The only difference is that in the choice of time, when the Shu army selected by the Chu army is defeated, only at that time, the white-clothed army will be exhausted, and the Chu army can easily seize Jinzhou, and then control the main road to the north.
And the time of the selection of the white-clothed army is the time when the Shu soldiers have a smooth journey, because the Shu army has a smooth journey, the Chu army will be completely relieved, thinking that Junzhou and Fangzhou on its western front are safe (the Shu army is so strong, the white-clothed army must have gone to deal with the Shu army), at this time, it is the best time to attack Junzhou.
As for the martial arts, both sides are playing a "feint" strategy, both trying to distract each other's attention.
At the head of Loess Town, Gao Huaide waved his hand and ordered: "Leave a thousand-strong team to garrison Loess City, and the other troops will follow me straight to Junzhou." Early tomorrow morning, the general will be in Junzhou City, and set up a banquet to entertain you! "The remnants of the Chu army in Loess Town were defeated and retreated to the outpost, that place, but it is really a one-man pass, the mountain road is a lot rugged, and there are a lot of rolling wood and stones on it, the cost of attacking it is not only very large, but also the time is probably not a lot. Gao Huaide immediately made a decision and went straight to Junzhou.
There are indeed not many Chu troops in Junzhou City, but there are still 10,000 Chu troops outside Junzhou City! The balance of victory and defeat seemed to be in favor of the Chu army.
