Chapter 81: The Confrontation Between the Rivers
Chapter 81: The Confrontation Between the Rivers
The Suishui River is not very wide, and historically, Suishui has also been congested several times due to the flooding of the Yellow River. also disappeared in the long river of history when the Ming and Qing dynasties were communicating.
However, at this time, Suishui still existed, but the Suishui that Zhang Xuan saw, the river was narrow, and the transportation volume was quite limited.
Zhang Xuancai understood why the important place of Ma Shiying's army was not in Wenjiaji, but in Yongcheng.
However, at the moment, this is all a small matter.
Zhang Xuan rode on the horse, looking at the opposite side from a distance, and there was a feeling that someone was turning on his back. He took a deep breath and felt a little ache all over his body. Asked behind him and said, "Can Xiping Camp hold on?" ”
Shen Wandeng said: "The commander does not have to worry about the Xiping camp, although the Xiping camp is a newly built battalion head, it will never drag the army back, we come from the vortex river day and night, just a small river, how can we block the way of the army, the Xiping camp is willing to be the vanguard and step through the water." Straight into the enemy camp. ”
Zhang Xuan smiled slightly and said: "General Shen, our army has traveled one hundred and fifty miles in one day and one night, the people are sleepy and the horses are tired, and the army is tired. ”
"But that's it. What is the point of our army marching like this? Shen Wandeng said.
Running more than 150 miles in one go, this kind of high-intensity march is also a very big burden for Zhang Xuan's department.
Although Shen Wandeng said that the Xiping Battalion could still fight, he himself knew that the current combat strength of the Xiping Battalion was probably less than half of what it was before.
It's just a breath of hard support.
Compared with the enemy, Zhang Xuan made another trick of fiction and reality. When Yang Shenzu led his army north, Zhang Xuan deliberately reduced the speed of the march.
Therefore, when Ma Shiying estimated Zhang Xuan's marching speed, he made a mistake.
After crossing the vortex river, the three-day journey was reduced to one day and one night, which gave Wang Han a sudden feeling that the soldiers were coming to the city.
"When I was young," Zhang Xuan smiled slightly, and said, "The teacher taught me boxing." Zhang Xuan said and put on a boxing posture and said: "I haven't studied for a few days, but I also know a basic truth, the hand in front of me is just used to attract attention." And the latter hand is used to beat people. ”
Zhang Xuan clenched his right hand and said, "Qin Meng"
"The end will be." Qin Meng said loudly.
Luo Dai was transferred, He Hutou was only thirteen years old, and when he could not be entrusted with the big task, Zhang Xuan retransferred Qin Meng and served as the commander of his own army, managing more than 1,000 cavalry.
Zhang Yuanhai replaced Qin Meng as a sentry officer in the Linying camp.
"Release all the sentinels and find out to me all the movements of the enemy." Zhang Xuan said.
"Yes." Qin Meng agreed loudly.
“
Deng He. Zhang Xuan shouted.
"Yes." Deng He immediately agreed.
"The most trustworthy thing for me is the Linying camp, although I know that the Linying camp is also very tired now, but the matter of building the camp and guarding the officers and soldiers, I and everyone in the army have handed over the lives of the Linying camp." Zhang Xuan said.
"The last will obey." Deng He immediately went down to make arrangements.
"Everyone else gives me rest." Zhang Xuan raised his head and looked at the sky, it was still noon. said: "There is no night battle to be fought tonight. ”
"Yes." The generals responded in unison, and in the sound of the clash of iron armor, they all dispersed to make their own preparations.
Zhang Xuan stood on the west bank of Suishui and looked at the opposite side from a distance. Even with a telescope, you can't really see it, you can only see the smoke rising. Zhang Xuan estimated that about 10,000 troops were dispatched on the opposite side.
Of course, this is just an estimate.
"I don't know if the generals on the other side have the courage. Cross the river and attack me? At this moment, the army is at its weakest. Zhang Xuan said secretly in his heart.
However, Zhang Xuan is not unprepared for this, this Suishui is the barrier on the opposite side, and it is also Zhang Xuan's barrier.
"Commander." He Hutou thought for a while and said, "What is the name of the boxing technique you just demonstrated?" How come I've never seen one? ”
Zhang Xuan didn't know how to answer for a while, others Zhang Xuan could still prevaricate in the past, but He Hutou was bent on practicing martial arts and avenging his father, and he wanted to learn any martial arts.
What Zhang Xuan learned back then was just a posture, so there was something else to hand over to He Hutou.
"Tiger head, you remember. Martial arts are just a small path, at most 100 enemies, if you want to defeat King Chuang, you have to learn the way of 10,000 enemies. Zhang Xuan Zhengse said.
"Please also ask my brother-in-law to pass me on the art of war." He Hutou's immature little face was as cold as ice. Said very seriously.
"Okay." Zhang Xuan has never kept his ability to march and fight a secret from himself. Anyway, he felt that there was nothing to keep secret.
Just when Zhang Xuan was starting from the most basic march, marching in the marching column, guarding the queue, stationing in the queue, and marching in the queue, this most basic thing taught He Hutou.
Wang Han also arrived at the east bank of Suishui at this moment.
Wang Han only felt that it was extremely noisy around him.
For Wang Han, Zhang Xuan came too quickly. couldn't react quickly, and he secretly said in his heart: "Fortunately, there is this Suishui River, otherwise the thieves will attack the camp at this time." ”
Wang Han knows himself.
Although relying on the dilapidated town of Wenjiaji, it saves a lot of hard work in building camps, but the place where Wenjiaji is located is a flat river, and there is no danger to defend. The soldiers under his command have been stationed for a long time, and they have all dispersed.
The thieves stood up in the camp on the other side, and he commanded his soldiers
, which has just been lined up on the east coast side.
"Your Excellency. The last general is ready to cross the river and attack at any time, and I ask the governor to give the order. Bu Congshan said impassionedly.
Wang Han used a clairvoyant mirror to see that within a distance of more than 100 steps on the west bank of Suishui, a wooden fence had been built. It is stretching to both sides. There were some vehicles inside the fence, and the artillery seemed to be faintly visible on the vehicles, and behind the artillery, tents had been opened.
The thieves were stationed very quickly, and he got the news that the thieves had arrived on the west bank of Suishui, and it had only been more than an hour now.
In this period of more than an hour. The thieves had already made the camp almost complete.
Looking at the loose soldiers under Bu Congshan's command, Wang Han's confidence in Bu Congshan's ability to break through Suishui and break through the thief camp has also diminished I don't know how much.
"General Bu's courage is commendable. It's just that the thieves are prepared, and I'm afraid it's not easy to attack. Moreover, Tanma has found out that there is no brigade of reinforcements behind the thief, as long as the horse arrives, the thief will definitely be captured. There is no need to make a big move, but you should prepare the boats to cross the river as soon as reinforcements arrive. And they crossed the river in a big way. ”
Wang Han even felt that this Bu Congshan was deliberately delaying time, so that he could discourage himself from surviving the attack.
However, even if Wang Han guessed it, he had to rely on Bu Congshan, the chief military officer.
"Yes." Bu Congshan bowed down and agreed, and said, "The last general will arrange this." ”
"Be on guard tonight and be careful that the enemy crosses the river at night." Wang Han seemed to have thought of something, and said a few more words.
"Please rest assured, Governor." Bu Congshan almost patted his chest and said: "There is an end, and the thief must not cross the water at night." ”
Wang Han said: "That's fine. ”
After Bu Congshan went down, Wang Han's face turned slightly cold, and he suddenly saw Zhang Xuan opposite while holding the clairvoyant mirror with both hands.
"Lord Sang, is Zhang Xuan on the other side?" Wang Han handed the clairvoyant mirror over.
Sang Kai took it over, looked at Zhang Xuan, and after a while, he put it down and said: "I'm ashamed, the lower official has dealt with Zhang Xuan several times, but he hasn't seen Zhang Xuan, but I heard that Zhang Xuan was in the thief camp, and was once called a little white face because of his attachment to Cao Cao's daughter. ”
Wang Han looked at Zhang Xuan again, Zhang Xuan seemed to be aware of it, and also looked at it with a clairvoyant mirror.
"Hey." Wang Han put down the clairvoyant mirror, sighed and said, "Qingben is a beautiful woman, why is she a thief?" ”
Zhang Xuan's own foundation is good, coupled with his outstanding temperament, although he has a scar on his face, which was injured by Li Zicheng, it is also just right, so that his appearance is not similar to neutral.
Wang Han prides himself on being a beautiful man, and he doesn't dare to call himself Mei Fengyi, but he also feels dignified, but when he sees Zhang Xuan, he inevitably has a feeling of shame.
