Chapter 348: Jia Jun Asks for Help
Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!
For the arrow array of the Mang army, the defenders have long been prepared, and a lot of wooden planks have been prepared on the head of the city, and the soldiers of the Han army either hide behind the arrow stacks, or set up wooden planks to resist the arrow array of the Mang army.
The arrow array of the Mang army was not only shot at the Han army on the head of the city, more than half of the arrows were shot into the city, especially the crossbow arrows fired from the large crossbow bed, which could be shot from outside the city all the way into the center of the city.
In the past few days, if the people in Kunyang City want to leave their homes, they have to first tear down their own door panels, and put the door panels on their heads before they dare to walk around the streets.
Although daily life was greatly restricted, the people in the city did not become chaotic, but took the initiative to help the Han army defend the city.
Dingling.
The battle of Kunyang has been fought for nearly ten days, and more than 400,000 reckless troops gathered outside Kunyang City, and the company camp set up spread for more than 100 miles, surrounding Kunyang City with three layers in and three layers outside, and the water could not be drained.
In Liu Xiu's mind, Kunyang City would definitely not be able to hold it, but what Liu Xiudu never expected was that Wang Feng in the city, who only led a Han army of about 10,000 people, could incredibly withstand the attack of more than 400,000 Mang troops.
The small Kunyang City has made more than 400,000 reckless troops unable to attack for a long time, helpless, which is simply unbelievable and beyond people's imagination. At this time, Liu Xiu once again saw the hope of turning around and winning.
In the past few days, a steady stream of newly recruited people from Yuncheng have rushed to Dingling, plus the local conscription from Dingling, Liu Xiu has recruited more than 2,000 new people, plus the original more than 1,000 people, forming an army of 3,000 people.
This is already the limit of the soldiers and horses recruited by Yuncheng and Dingling, and these 3,000 soldiers are also Liu Xiu's last capital. Wang Feng, who was greedy for life and afraid of death, withstood the offensive of the Mang army in Kunyang, and Liu Xiu would not be afraid to fight.
He led 3,000 soldiers, left Dingling, and advanced in the direction of Kunyang. This time, the speed of Liu Xiu's advance is not fast, the closer to Kunyang, the slower the speed.
It was not that he intended to delay, but that the Mang army had many patrol troops around Kunyang, and when they heard the news that Liu Xiu was coming straight to Kunyang, these Mang troops who were responsible for patrolling gathered one after another.
Liu Xiu was still forty miles away from Kunyang, and he encountered the first patrol army. The main general of this reckless army is named Bian Xuan, and there are more than 1,000 soldiers under his command, and the two sides met in a narrow way, and they immediately fought together.
Bian Xuan's force is not weak, but unfortunately he encountered Liu Xiu, under Liu Xiu, there are not many others, that is, there are many fierce generals with superior force.
In the melee, Bian Xuan was cut off by Gai Yan's head. As soon as Bian Xuan died, the reckless army under his command was in chaos.
How could Liu Xiu miss such a good opportunity? Command the officers and men of the whole army to attack the Mang army with all their might. Most of the Han troops under Liu Xiu's command were newly recruited recruits, with no experience and no systematic drills.
If it is a bad battle against the wind, these recruits are naturally vulnerable, but the victory in the downwind game is a rare training opportunity for the recruits.
On the battlefield, the recruits of the Han army were all red-eyed, and they fought and killed the chaotic reckless army. The reckless army was difficult to support, and after more than half of the casualties, it was like a scattered rout backwards.
The Han army pursued and killed two or three miles, and the last Mang army of more than 1,000 people only escaped more than 100 people. Winning the first battle was of great significance, because at least it greatly eliminated the fear of the recruits and greatly increased the combat experience of the recruits.
The battle had just ended, and two more reckless armies attacked the Han army from the north and south. Liu Xiu divided his troops into two routes, one of Ma Wu's troops to meet the Mang army coming from the north, and Jia Fu's first part to meet the Mang army from the south.
The next two engagements were like a remake of the first. Ma Wu and Jia Fu both took the lead in entering the enemy camp, and directly killed the enemy's main general in the chaos with lightning speed.
As soon as the main general died, the soldiers of the Mang army were in chaos, and at this time, the soldiers of the Han army pounced again, beat the water dogs with sticks, and killed the two Mang troops to a great defeat.
The Mang army, which patrolled outside the Mang camp, failed to effectively organize together, gathered superior forces, and fought a tough battle with the Han army. Instead, one or two rushed over one after another, and then they were broken by the Han army one by one.
After defeating three Mang armies in a row, the Mang army began to gather troops from all parts to fight a decisive battle with the Han army.
However, at this time, Liu Xiu no longer had a hard time with the Mang army, and led his subordinates to move from the east of the Mang camp to the south to avoid the superior strength of the Mang army.
When the Mang army moved to the south of the camp, Liu Xiu's first department moved to the west of the camp. One chased, the other ran, Liu Xiu was completely going around in circles outside the camp with the Mang army.
In fact, when Liu Xiu led his troops around the Mang Camp, he was also looking for the weaknesses of the Mang Camp.
They only have 3,000 people, and it is impossible to defeat the company and battalion of more than 400,000 Mang troops, and the only way to win is to need to cooperate with the inside and outside, and the Kunyang defenders must cooperate with them to fight, and attack inside and outside, so as to have a chance to defeat the Mang army in one fell swoop.
But how to contact Kunyang has become Liu Xiu's biggest problem. Liu Xiu made a big circle outside the Mang camp, but failed to find any gaps in the Mang army company camp.
In other words, it is no longer possible for them to break through the company camp of the Mang army and get in touch with the Kunyang side, and the only way is to forcibly break through the encirclement of the Mang army and penetrate the camp of the Mang army.
However, the reckless army company camp not only has length, but also thickness, and it is undoubtedly difficult to break through such a large reckless camp.
Liu Xiuyi ran around the periphery of the Mang camp, ran a big circle, and finally ran back to the east of the Mang camp. The reckless army that was chasing behind the Han army's butt also chased after him.
The Mang army thought that as soon as they caught up, the Han army was going to run again, but this time they guessed wrong, Liu Xiu led the troops, turned around, and took the initiative to meet the Mang army.
In fact, the strength of the Mang army has tens of thousands of people, but it has been slipped away by the Han army for so long, and the Mang army is also tired, and the number of Mang troops who took the lead in catching up with the Han army is only more than 1,000 people.
These more than 1,000 unlucky reckless soldiers were colliding with the Han army's sudden return to the horse gun, and they were killed and fled.
The fighting spirit of the Mang army behind was not high, and when they saw that their own soldiers in front of them were defeated, they didn't even see the shadow of the Han army, so they ran back with the defeated soldiers and fled back to the Mang army camp.
After beating away the big tail that was following him, Liu Xiuyi set up camp about ten miles away from Mangying and rested for the time being.
The Chinese military tent was temporarily arranged, without a roof, and an area of ten square meters was enclosed with a strip of cloth more than one meter wide. Liu Xiu and the generals under his command knelt on the ground one after another. He picked up a branch, sketched it on the ground, and said: "After several days of inspection, the company and battalion of the Mang army have surrounded Kunyang impenetrable, but relatively speaking, the strength of the Mang army in the north camp is relative
There are fewer, and the eastern camp has the largest number of troops. ”
Feng Yi explained: "Wang Yi and Wang Xun are both in Dongying, where the Chinese army is, and the Mang army has the largest number of troops in Dongying, which is understandable. ”
Ma Wu rolled his eyes and said, "If our army wants to attack the Mang camp, the first choice should be to attack the north camp?" ”
Feng Yi frowned and was silent in thought. Although the strength of the North Battalion is relatively small, the East Battalion and the West Battalion on both sides of the North Battalion have a lot of troops, and they can reinforce the North Battalion as soon as possible, so the seemingly weak North Battalion is actually not easy to fight.
Liu Xiu shook his head and said: "If our army wants to defeat the Mang army, of course we can't fight the North Camp, but the East Camp with the most troops!" Ma Wu blinked and looked at Liu Xiu in puzzlement. Sai Zun said: "Dongying is where the middle army of the Mang Army is located. The difference between our strength and the reckless army is too great, fighting in the north camp, even if our army can win, it is not of much significance, only in the east camp to win, straight
Only by smashing the Yellow Dragon can it lead to the rout of the entire army of the Mang army! ”
Liu Xiu nodded again and again, indicating that the priest was right.
He narrowed his eyes and said faintly: "It is too difficult to defeat the Chinese army of the Mang army by relying only on our three thousand soldiers, so our army must get the cooperation of Kunyang in this battle, and the two armies will work together to flank the Chinese army of the Mang army!" ”
Sai Zun frowned and said, "But my lord, the problem is that we can't contact Kunyang at all now, and the information from our side can't be transmitted to Kunyang." ”
Liu Xiu said with a solemn face: "So, we need someone who can break through the company camp of the Mangjun army, break through to the city of Kunyang, meet Chengguo Gong, and pass on the news of our army!" ”
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other, and they all gasped. If you want to break through the company camp of more than 400,000 reckless troops on your own, who can do this? Unless it's a god descending from the heavens!
Seeing that everyone around him was silent, Ma Wu's eyes widened, and he arched his hand and said, "Lord, my subordinates are willing to go!" ”
As soon as his words fell, Wang Ba followed and said: "Lord, my subordinates are willing to go!" ”
When Ma Wu heard this, he was so angry that the roots of his teeth itched, this little Wang Ba was determined to go against himself. He snorted coldly and sneered: "With your martial arts, you dare to fight with me?" I don't know how thick the sky is! ”
Wang Ba said-for-tat: "But whatever you Ma Wu can do, my Wang Ba can also do!" If you don't accept it, let's compare with each other and see if you can break through the Mangying Camp, or if I can break through the Mangying Camp! ”
Ma Wu's pair of big ring eyes glared coldly at Wang Ba, and his eyes were about to pop out of his sockets. Seeing that the pair of living treasures were arguing again, Liu Xiu couldn't help but stroke his forehead.
Jia Fu coughed lightly, stepped forward and said, "Lord, let your subordinates go down!" ”
Liu Xiu raised his head, looked at Jia Fu, and said, "Junwen ......"
Jia Fu said: "Don't worry, your subordinates will be able to break through the Mang camp, see Chengguo Gong, and convey the lord's will to Kunyang!" ”
In fact, among the generals under his command, Liu Xiu really felt that only Jia Fu was a little hopeful that he could complete this task.
Let's put it this way, whether it is to let Ma Wu or Wang Ba go, it is not nine deaths and one life, but ten deaths and no life. Only Jia Fu, with his force, may have a hope of breaking through the Mangying camp.
It's just that, in order to accomplish this task, is it really worth risking your most heroic and combative subordinates?
Seeing Jia Fu's invitation, Liu Xiu was in a complicated mood, both relieved and reluctant. He looked at Jia Fu for a moment, lowered his head, and was silent.
Seeing this, Jia Fu hurriedly said: "Lord, let the other brothers break through the Mang camp, that is, let the brothers go to death, and I hope the lord will think twice!" ”
There are many fierce generals under Liu Xiu's command, such as Ma Wu, Cho Period, Gai Yan, Fu Jun, Wang Ba, Zhu You and others, all of whom are brave and good at fighting, if others say this, they will definitely not be convinced, and they have to stand up and refute a few words.
But this remark came from Jia Fu's mouth, and no one was unconvinced, even the short-tempered and arrogant Ma Wu had to admit that Jia Fu's force was not under him.
Seeing that Liu Xiu still didn't speak, Jia Fu was also anxious, and said again: "Lord-"
Compared with Zhu You, Gai Yan, Feng Yi, Fu Jun, Ma Wu, Cho Qi and others, Jia Fu defected to Liu Xiu relatively late, even though he was superior in force, but it was inevitable that he lacked prestige and prestige. In Jia Fu's view, this task of breaking through the Mangying camp is not only to solve his own urgent needs, but also a good opportunity to establish his prestige.
