Chapter 49: Self-Rebellion
War horse law, Zhang Liao was about to open the door and go out of the city, and suddenly the east gate sent someone to report, saying that there were five people dressed in Wuhuan to serve, risking their lives with sharp arrows to hide in the city cave, and the self-registration number said that it was called Zhou Shuang, and asked the general to come over.
Now the wolf cavalry battalion has already withdrawn from the city gate, preparing to go out of the city to attack the Wuhuan camp, the east gate guarding the city are all servant soldiers, since they don't know Zhou Shuang, so they hurriedly sent someone to report.
"Zhou Shuang?"
Zhang Liao thought back, Wang Zhen on the side said in surprise: "General, it's Zhou Yeniu, he is also a veteran from Bingzhou with us, the last time he attacked the palace, the general also praised him for being as strong as an ox, and he can compete with Li Kui, the commander of Wenhou's personal guard." ”
"It's a bison! Why did you call Zhou Shuang again! ”
Zhang Liao raised his eyebrows and said to himself.
Zhou Shuang came, proving that Lu Bu was around here, and at this time, Lu Bu could withdraw to relieve the siege of the pill capital, proving that the Liaodong army in the south had been pinned down by Lu Bu, otherwise how could he come to save him.
"The wolf riding camp is on standby!"
Zhang Liao turned around and gave the order, and then beat the horse and Wang Zhen went straight to the east gate, and through the crack in the city gate, he really saw that it was Zhou Shuang.
"General Zhang, it's me, Zhou Shuang, Zhou Bison."
Zhou Shuang shouted excitedly.
"Bison, it's really you, come in."
Seeing Zhou Shuang was like seeing Lu Bu, Zhang Liao was full of confidence, and hurriedly instructed the soldiers to prepare to open the city gate and let these five people in.
Zhou Shuang looked back at the empty field, and said worriedly: "General, I won't enter the city, there are more than a dozen brothers outside who are fighting with the Wuhuan people's rangers, we took the opportunity to kill five of them, and then we changed our outfits and passed the test in a fool's way, I'm afraid that if it drags on for a long time, it will be discovered by the Wuhuan people." ”
"Wen Hou has led the wolf cavalry battalion to be stationed in Gaima Mountain, so that the general can withdraw from Marudu City before dawn, there must be no mistake."
Zhang Liao's heart was wide, and the last worries disappeared, it seemed that he and Lu Bu thought together, and if he held Gaima Mountain, he would be able to guard the barrier between Lelang County and Daifang County.
Zhang Liao swore and said: "You go back and tell Wen Hou that Zhang Liao will definitely be able to bring the men out of the city before dawn." ”
"Okay, then the last general will go back to his life first."
Zhou Shuang turned around cautiously and looked around, and then led his subordinates to retreat.
Wang Zhen was overjoyed and said: "General, now we are saved, and the wolf cavalry doesn't have to take any risks to steal the camp." ”
"No, although Wen Hou is responding outside, the difference in the number of the enemy and us is really huge, and it is even more necessary to disrupt the enemy camp, so that the servant army can be completely retained, and when the time comes, it will be much easier to deal with the Wuhuan people with Wen Hou."
Zhang Liao explained that for the sake of the general's long-term consideration, he should not be confused by the current luck.
"The last general is taught, and what the general says is very true."
Zhang Liao said: "It's not immutable, now that Wen Hou has been outside, the servant army does not have to wait for the enemy to camp chaotically, and the two roads of men and horses act at the same time, I led the wolf cavalry battalion out of the city from the west gate, and attacked the enemy camp at night, you lead the servant army out of the city from the south gate and go to Gaima Mountain, which can greatly reduce the delay time of the wolf cavalry battalion, which is conducive to the rapid withdrawal of the wolf cavalry battalion from the battle and reduce casualties." ”
"The last general obeys!"
Wang Zhen bowed down to receive the order, and his admiration for Zhang Liao became more and more long.
"You quickly go and gather all the servant armies, throw them away except for weapons and rations, and after half an hour, with fire as the signal, the two armies will withdraw from Marudu City at the same time."
Zhang Liao's order has been decided, so he got up and went to the west gate, where the three thousand wolf cavalry were already ready to go, just waiting for his order.
In a tense state, half an hour, in the blink of an eye, a large pile of dry firewood was erected in the West Gate Tower, and a sergeant poured a pot of fire oil on it.
"Departure"
"Departure"
The west and south gates were opened at the same time, the west gate galloped straight to the little wolf slope, and the south gate opened two legs and galloped towards the Gaima mountain like the wind.
Zhang Liao took the lead and led three thousand wolves to gallop to kill the two Wuhuan thousand people stationed on the road.
"Kill!"
The earth roared, and the Wuhuan people on duty on the road woke up from their sleep one after another, got up and grabbed their sabers.
The camp on the road is just to guard the capital of the pill, so there is no camp fence and horse rejection pile, how can the makeshift tent resist the wolf cavalry like a leopard and a tiger, three thousand war horses are like tens of thousands of hammers, the camp tent trampled on the staggered, and the Wuhuan people who fled in the desert were eager to carry the war horses and gallop.
The commander of the thousand horsemen guarding the camp shouted in horror: "Quick, go to the camp and invite the king." ”
The war horses are dashing, the blood is flying, the warriors are fearless, the knives are boundless, the night is three thousand to break the enemy camp, and the Wuhuan knows the wolf cavalry.
In less than half a quarter of an hour, the two thousand Wuhuan people on duty fled and died, and no one dared to stand in front of Zhang Liao.
Zhang Liao stabilized the wolf cavalry formation, pointed to the small wolf slope five miles away, and said loudly: "Have you seen that wolf's mane banner?" Where was the leader of the Wuhuan people, the whole army charged, cut off the handsome banner, and beheaded Su Muyan. ”
At the same time, there was a leisurely low trombone sound from the south, deep and long, this is the unique battlefield signal transmission of the Wuhuan people, it seems that the servant army out of the city has been connected with the Wuhuan people outside the south gate, once the horn sound is transmitted back to the little wolf slope, there will be thousands of Wuhuan people to rush to help, when the servant army wants to retreat with the whole body, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky, how can two legs run over the four-legged livestock.
"Charge!"
Without delay, Zhang Liao decisively ordered the whole army to attack, and if the Wuhuan camp was disrupted one second earlier, hundreds of servant troops could be saved.
"Driving ......"
The three thousand wolf cavalry urged their war horses, and as Zhang Liao pounced on the little wolf slope, the sound of horses' hooves clanged, and the rhythmic sound of armor hitting was like a war drum, majestic and high-spirited.
Outside the camp of Little Wolf Slope, the Wuhuan people who fled from the West Gate shouted and scolded the people inside to open the gate and let them in, the trembling earth became more and more violent, and the panic and fear became heavier and heavier.
"Open the gate for Lao Tzu, the Han people are coming."
The Wuhuan people roared almost roaring, they already smelled death, but no one wanted to die.
The captain of the hundred horsemen guarding the door has already gone to ask Su Fuyan, the horn of the south gate has just arrived, and the remnants of the West Gate have returned, he knows that the situation is very serious, and it has exceeded the scope of his own small hundred cavalry commanders.
The captain of the hundred horsemen roared loudly: "Please wait a while, the king will be there soon." ”
But the Wuhuan people who fled back outside the gate didn't care about this, they only knew that Zhang Liao's big knife was already hanging on their necks, and if they didn't let them in, they would let them wait for death.
"Brothers, cut down the gate, we rush in, we can't be hacked to death by the Han people."
"yes, rush in,......"
In their eyes, life and death, between this gate, entered the camp, there were tens of thousands of Wuhuan soldiers inside, Zhang Liao did not dare to come in no matter what.
The commander of the hundred cavalry couldn't explain it, and when he saw the deserters attacking the gate, he could only say to the crossbow soldiers on the left and right: "Release the arrows." ”
"Your Excellency, but... But they are our brothers! ”
The crossbow archer couldn't bear to ask, because there were his relatives outside the camp, and it was really difficult for him to accept such cannibalism.
The commander of the hundred cavalry snatched the crossbow and shot it with an arrow, and a thousand cavalry commander who took the lead in smashing the door outside the camp shouted loudly: "Who dares to make a mistake, shoot the arrow to death." ”
He turned back to the crossbowmen and scolded: "If you open the gate and the thief army rushes in, the king will definitely destroy your whole clan, you weigh it yourself." ”
Looking at the fierce hundred cavalry commanders, the crossbow archers no longer dared to have the slightest disobedience, and they set up arrows one after another, aiming at the Wuhuan people outside the camp.
