Chapter 26: Thunder Battle III
As soon as the sky was bright, he was surrounded and killed by the men and horses of Yesu outside the county.
Zhang Liao's battalion was no exception, completely cutting off the road back to the city, and the sword was tense, and the big battle was about to break out.
Thousands of war horses carrying sacks of sacks of sacks accumulated earthen platforms, like building a city wall, steadily piled up towards the city gate.
Lu Bu's expression was solemn, I really don't know how to come up with such a clumsy method, but often the most clumsy way is the most headache, ten days and half a month, not to mention blocking the four gates, can exhaust a slope, and the Goryeo stick can directly step on a horse to attack the city.
Li Ru sighed: "There are experts in the Goryeo army. ”
The reason why he is said to be an expert rather than a master is because Li Ru already has a countermeasure, the generals fight the martial arts, and the literati compare talents, how can he easily admit defeat when he first joins the Lu Bu army.
Lu Bu looked at Li Ru with interest, and said with a smile: "Wen Youding has thought of a plan to crack it, come quickly." ”
Li Ru replied solemnly: "The thief army's plan seems to have no flaws, but its leakage is full of mistakes, filling the door with the soil, there is no ten days and half a month to see results, the lord can build an arrow tower with the foot of the city, and the longbowmen are on standby day and night, once the thief army shows its head, it will be shot to death with arrows, which can slow down the process of the thief army." ”
Lu Bu also thought of this plan, it is not surprising, and it still can't alleviate the crisis, Zhang Liao is alone outside the city, once the connection between the two is cut off, he will lose his troops.
"Wen You doesn't have to sell Guanzi, come quickly!"
Li Ru said unhurriedly: "The thief army builds an earthen platform, why don't the lord dig a secret road." ”
"The lord can let Chen Gong lead the slaves to dig tunnels in the city day and night, leading directly to the outside of the city, when the passage is a success, the thief army invades the city, and the lord defends outside the city, but I am afraid that the thieves will not have time to cry."
Lu Bu is overjoyed, this is to play tunnel warfare, and cold weapon combat is really interesting.
"Someone, go and pass on Chen Palace."
Lu Bu turned to Li Kui again and said: "Zhang Liao is isolated outside the city, you lead the tiger team to go out of the city at night, tell him that he must defend the camp, you will stay under him to do things, lose the camp, and hold you accountable first." ”
"No"
Li Kui should admit it, and he was secretly ruthless in his heart, he must complete this task well, otherwise Lu Bu should punish him again.
also launched a tentative attack on Zhang Liao, but they were all killed and retreated, anyway, they were not in a hurry, and the order was to let people take turns to fight, and Zhang Liao was tired of being tired.
Both armies are preparing for battle intensively, and the dirt slope outside the city has a prototype, but there are also hundreds of corpses of Goryeo sticks, and the longbowmen on the arrow tower in the city are not vegetarians, but they are strong archers in the camp, one is more accurate than the other.
In the camp, the atmosphere was not very good, and he was a little flustered, he didn't expect that Zhang Liao's camp was so difficult to attack, and Lu Bu's longbow was so fast and accurate.
Wang Hongliang explained from the side: "My lord doesn't have to be impatient, once the mound is formed, the road for Lu Bu to go out of the city to rescue will be cut off, and then he will gather heavy troops to attack the camp, and now he will attack it strongly, and the gains outweigh the losses." ”
Originally, he also wanted to gather all the soldiers and horses in his hands to destroy Zhang Liao first, and then besiege Daifang County, but Wang Hongliang suggested cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, if Zhang Liao was scattered, if he led the cavalry to wander around the periphery, and from time to time to harass the rear, it would disrupt the siege plan.
"As for Lu Bu, your lord can follow his example, and also set up an arrow tower outside the city, shoot at Lu Bu, and suppress the longbowmen on the opposite side."
The sullenness in his heart was finally relieved, and he turned back to his relatives and said, "Go and do what the military advisor says." ”
Lu Bu looked at the slaves digging tunnels back and forth, and suddenly thought of the engineer battalion, the division of labor is a sign of the strength of the army.
"Gongtai, after the war, I intend to prepare the engineer battalion, which will be included in the jurisdiction of internal affairs, as a logistics strategic reserve, weapon building, grain and grass distribution, pre-war preparation, and post-war maintenance, all of which are included in it, and I will leave it to you to bother, if you have any questions, you can come and negotiate with me at any time."
Chen Gong didn't seem to understand, and Lu Bu said: "This sapper is not an archer, but a craftsman's work, and the craftsmen brought from Guangling can be included in it, which is a special treatment, and so on." ”
Chen Gong knew that this was not the first time Lu Bu had a whimsical theory, and there was no harm, so he just did it, and as for the effect, he could only see the after-effects.
The soil slope outside the city is getting more and more tired, as for Wang Hongliang's confident arrow tower, it has long been abandoned, and the Fuyu people are good at riding and shooting, but they are all short crossbows, and the range is not enough, but they have become a live target for longbowmen in the city, losing more than 200 people.
The pressure on Zhang Liao's camp is also increasing, and Goguryeo Stick is not his opponent at all when he sees that he is fighting alone, so he just asks people to harass him every day, either attacking at night or releasing arrows, and he is very bored.
After a long time, the morale slowly declined, and the morale of the servant army, which had been difficult to stabilize, began to disperse.
Zhang Liao smashed the table in the camp with a punch, and said angrily: "The barbarians are really a group of bed bugs, they can't sit still, Li Kui, dare to go out of the camp with me tonight to sneak attack the main tent of the thief army." ”
Li Kui has been here for several days, and he has been depressed and unhappy, he is a person who can't be idle, and his hands have long been itchy.
"Okay, everything is up to General Zhang."
Zhang Liao said carefully: "I intend to select 800 warriors, enter from the west of the thief army tonight, and go straight to the camp of the commander of the thief army." ”
There were nearly 20,000 enemies, and Zhang Liao only selected 800 people to rob the camp, Li Kui looked at Zhang Liao in disbelief.
In the middle of the night, the Goryeo sticks came to harass for a while, and the noisy people in the camp were urgently gathered by Zhang Liao.
On the high platform, Zhang Liao raised his arms and shouted: "I intend to steal the camp tonight, I need to select 800 warriors from among you, and those who are not afraid of death will stand up. ”
The servant army began to whisper, 800 people went to steal the camp, nine deaths, no one wanted to die.
"Me"
"Me"
……
The Han and Wuheng people in the servant army were the first to stand up, and Lu Bu gave them new life and gave them hope of survival, if Lu Bu was defeated, they would not be able to live.
After half an hour, there were 900 people participating, Zhang Liao was full of confidence, turned back to Li Kui and said: "You lead the wolf cavalry battalion to stay in the camp, and when the enemy army comes to chase you, you can send someone to respond." ”
Li Kui was ten thousand unsatisfactory in his heart, but Zhang Liao's murderous eyes made him hold back the words that came to his mouth.
The moon stars are scarce, and the Goguryeo stick never thought that Zhang Liao, who had been overwhelmed by the pressure, would dare to raise troops and steal the camp.
Zhang Liao led 900 people to kill from the west, set fire to the camp everywhere, the camp was in chaos, and Zhang Liao was brave and invincible, no one stopped him, and let them rush all the way to the commander's camp, and quickly took the weapon, picked up the gun and went on the horse to rob and kill Zhang Liao.
"Rush"
Zhang Liao and Ye also beat the horse quickly, had no intention of entanglement, led his subordinates and warriors to continue to the east, and turned the thief army camp upside down, and then beat the horse and ran the camp.
was also quickly angry, and he was afraid that Lu Bu would lead his troops to kill, so he sent a team of cavalry to chase Zhang Liao, but was intercepted by Li Kui halfway, and returned with a defeat.
