Chapter 147: Battle of Wits and Courage Battle of Tongguan (5)
Zhang Xiu and the others stared intently, although they were in a cold sweat all over their bodies, they still didn't dare to slack off.
When I heard the shouting, I still didn't dare to make a sound, and when I was young, a team of people and horses rushed out of the woods, and when I saw the big flag, it was undoubtedly my own big flag, Zhang Xiu and others suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing the person coming, the person in charge was Yang Ang.
Yang Ang was shocked when he saw the appearance of Zhang Xiu, Wu Hao and others, and exclaimed: "You... It's ......"
"Failed, we were ambushed, and we were the only ones left." Zhang Xiu shook his head and sighed.
"What? There are only a dozen of you left. Yang Ang was extremely frightened, he had seen Zhang Xiu's sneak into Zhao Xu's camp, ready to respond at any time, and then heard the sound of killing, shaking the heavens and the earth, I don't know what the situation was, Zhang Ji couldn't rest assured, and hurriedly led the troops forward, and suddenly saw Zhang Xiu kill out of the camp from a distance, galloped his horse and galloped, and was shocked, so he knew that the attack on the camp failed, and he didn't dare to approach Zhao Xu's camp, so he had to look for the whereabouts of Zhang Xiu and others around.
Someone had already reported to Zhang Ji, Zhang Ji learned the news, immediately rushed over, saw Zhang Xiu sitting on the ground, embarrassed, hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Zhang Xiu's arms, and shouted: "Xiu'er, it's okay!" ”
"Don't worry! Uncle, I'm fine. It's just ......" Zhang Xiu said later, choked up and didn't say any more.
Zhang Ji saw that there were only a dozen or so people left, and he was also shocked, seeing Zhang Xiu's expression, he couldn't help but comfort: "It's okay, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, we still have a chance to fight back, Xiu'er, let's go back to rest first, and fight again one day." ”
"No, uncle, I'm not reconciled, let's rob him again tonight!" Zhang Xiu stood up abruptly and said through gritted teeth.
As soon as Zhang Xiu's words came out, the surrounding soldiers were taken aback, especially Wu Hao and others, who couldn't help but have a cool breeze in the back of their heads. "You're crazy, we're the only ones left with 800 dead soldiers, do you want to add more casualties?" Wu Hao shouted.
"Xiu'er, don't mess around, there's no negotiation, you have to go back." Zhang Ji shouted.
"Yes! We have already failed once, and Zhao Xu must be prepared in the second half of the night, so we don't want to increase casualties in vain. Yang Ang also persuaded.
"On the contrary, tonight is an opportunity not to be missed." Zhang Xiu's eyes suddenly coldened, and said. That cold gaze was full of anger, which made Yang Ang and the others frightened.
"General Zhang, what do you say?" Wu Hao was surprised, according to common sense, who will not be afraid after a sneak attack on his home, not to mention that he Zhao Xu has already premeditated and has already failed once, don't you still know the pain?
"General Wu, if your camp breaks through the enemy troops who came to attack the camp, what will happen to you next?" Zhang Xiu asked suddenly.
"Needless to say, I will definitely take advantage of the situation to chase and kill, so that the enemy army will be terrified." Wu Hao said without thinking.
"That's it."
"What?" Wu Hao suddenly realized something when he heard this, and asked weakly: "General Zhang, ......what do you mean?"
"Not bad." Zhang Xiuying said: "Originally, Zhao Xu had a premeditated plan to defeat our attack camp troops, but he did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, but closed the gate of the village, what does this mean, it can be seen that Zhao Xu's army is exhausted, and Zhao Xu's troops called "Haolong Xuanjia Army" and "Condor Warrior" are extremely elite, we are surrounded tonight, the number of enemy troops is several times that of us, and they are all elite soldiers, but we still let a dozen or so people kill it, it's not that we are too powerful!" I think Zhao Xu's army is a little powerless, and Zhao Xu doesn't chase after him, presumably because he thinks that he has killed us to the cold. We will attack the camp again, and we will definitely succeed, and we will take him by surprise. ”
Zhang Xiu's words, although everyone felt that it was reasonable, but they felt that it was too risky, and they still hesitated. Zhang Ji said: "Xiu'er, it's too risky to do this, it's better to be careful......
Before Zhang Ji finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhang Xiu, who knelt down and begged: "Uncle! If we miss this opportunity, there will be no chance to turn over, why not gamble, even if it is risky, it is better than waiting for destruction! Uncle! There are also 50,000 people and horses you brought out, which is enough, I know that Zhao Xu's camp is on the periphery, we can first send the infantry army to dismantle it, and then wave the army to cover it, and we will definitely be able to kill him by surprise, even if Zhao Xu can't be killed, but the frustration is sharp, and it is certainly a big victory. ”
"This ......" Although Zhang Ji felt very reasonable, he still felt that the risk was too great, and he didn't dare to decide easily, so he looked at Yang Ang.
Yang Ang looked at Zhang Xiu, and saw that his eyes were firm, and his heart couldn't help but be shaken. Xiang Zhang Ji said: "Lord Zhang, I think what General Zhang said is very reasonable, it is better to follow what he said!" It's better to sink the boat than to sit back and wait for destruction! ”
At this time, Zhang Ji was helpless if he wanted to refuse, glanced at the generals, and saw that Zhang Xiu and Wu Hao were also quite warlike, sighed, and said, "That's it!" Just bet on this one and fight. ”
At this time, Zhao Xu's military camp, the ambushes everywhere have dispersed, and they went back to sleep, and after explaining the precautionary affairs, Zhao Xu also stretched his waist and prepared to go back to the camp to sleep. "Boxiong, wait!" Suddenly, a familiar voice stopped Zhao Xu.
Zhao Xu heard the voice, and hurriedly looked back, it was Jia Xu, Zhao Xu laughed and said: "Wenhe, don't go to bed so late, what are you doing when you come to me?" It's not like you're scared, come and sleep with me! I disagree. ”
"Boxiong, I'm not here to joke with you, I have something to discuss." When Jia Xu saw Zhao Xu joking, his face immediately pulled down, and he said with a straight face.
"The enemy army has been defeated and retreated, what else do you Jia Wenhe have to do? If you want to discuss war, why don't you talk about it during the day? At this time, a voice interrupted Zhao Xu, and when he looked again, he saw that Fa Zheng had already walked over.
"Xiaozhi, I'm not joking with you, I just remembered something and came to tell you." Jia Xu said with a little reproach.
"What's the matter? It's not like I've come up with a way to take Tongguan without blood! Zhao Xu quipped.
Jia Xu was tricked by Zhao Xu and Fa Zheng like this, and he was not angry, and he blamed this Boxiong for bringing us all badly. Alas! That's it, Jia Xu has no choice but to do it, so he will make a fool of you. smiled slightly at the moment and said, "Hehe! Yes, Jia Mou came up with a plan, he can really fight without blood, and without scrapping knives and guns. You can capture this Tongguan, but I'm afraid that you won't adopt it, so I don't say anything about it during the day! ”
What the? Can you really take Tongguan without blood? This, how is this possible! It's just a joke! Zhao Xu and Fa Zheng were shocked when they heard this. Unless you use the hot weapons of later generations, it is impossible to capture Tongguan without swords and guns, you know, the Tang Dynasty started by relying on Tongguan, if it is so easy to take, Zhao Xu does not have to spend so much effort to attack Tongguan.
Fa Zheng suppressed the shock in his heart, and asked slightly tentatively: "That, Wenhe, there is no joke in the army, do you really have such a way?" Well, we were rude just now, if you really have such a clever plan, please advise me. ”
After all, Fa Zheng is focused on the overall situation, if Jia Xu can really capture Tongguan without blood, Fa Zheng will also burn high incense, as long as it helps the world to peace, even if he lowers his posture and asks Jia Xu for advice, it is nothing. Moreover, Fa Zheng thought about this Tongguan and didn't come up with any good siege methods, if Jia Xu really had such a clever plan, then he would have to worship Jia Xu as a teacher after the war.
"Haha! Filial piety, you can look up to me, how to talk about advice, there is no joke in the army, of course there will be no loss, I do have such a way. Jia Xu saw that Fa Zheng and Zhao Xu were fooled, and he was secretly proud, who asked the two of you to make fun of me, and a weird smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Wenhe, the war is urgent, please teach me Wenhe!" Fa Zheng didn't care about a lot, and the overall situation was important, so he asked.
Zhao Xu saw Jia Xu's weird smile, and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, Jia Xu is known as a "poisoner", if you want to say that the way to fight without blood, should it be......
"If you want to fight without blood, you can break the water of the Yellow River and flood Tongguan! Tongguan has no way around, only to defend to the death, the Yellow River does not retreat, only more than a month, its inevitable army is in turmoil, and it will break down without a fight. Jia Xu said it lightly, and his face did not change, as if he was playing a game.
What the! Will the Yellow River burst its banks? Zhao Xu and Fa Zheng were suddenly startled, and couldn't help but gasp.
"Wenhe, aren't you crazy?" Fa Zheng said in horror: "Do you know that once the Yellow River bursts its banks and floods, it will not only be this Tongguan, but I am afraid that the entire Guanzhong region will fall into a disaster, and how many people will be displaced like this, how can you Jia Wenhe settle down?" Even if we are bloodless, what can we do if we capture Tongguan? Will the lord and the Son of Heaven still give up? Are we not going to be infamous for a thousand years? Aren't you afraid that the people will poke your backbone? The more Fa Zheng spoke, the more excited he became, and when he looked at him later, he was afraid that he was about to scold.
It's no wonder that Fa Zheng is so excited, how serious the consequences are when the Yellow River bursts? When Zhao Xu heard this, he couldn't help but feel angry, and even had the urge to kill Jia Xu with a sword. is so vicious, what do you think of the people of the world? I have to say that this Jia Xu is as vicious as Qin Shi Huang and Lao Jiang who broke the embankment of the Yellow River in later generations! When the Qin Dynasty was about to die, no one dared to break the embankment of the Yellow River, even if it was broken, it was a decision made after many contradictions of inner struggle! is as frivolous as Jia Xu, which is really unique.
Jia Xu saw that Zhao Xu and Fa Zheng suddenly changed color, especially Fa Zheng, the green tendons on the top of his head burst out, which was terrifying, Jia Xu also immediately realized that he had said too much, although he had thought so in his heart, but after a long time by Liu Bei and Zhao Xu's benevolence and righteousness, after all, he still didn't dare to say his idea. Hurriedly changed his words and said: "Boxiong and Xiaozhixiu are going to be angry, but I'm just joking, just talk about it." ”
"Whatever you want? You treat the people like dung like this, compared to the summer of the year, the business is as good as the business. Fa Zheng still couldn't calm down, and said angrily.
Jia Xu knew that he was joking too much, causing public anger, but he didn't dare to fight back, and he felt embarrassed, he really went too far. just apologized and let the law reprimand.
After a long time, Fa Zheng also said that he was tired, Zhao Xu and Fa Zheng gradually calmed down, Zhao Xu knew that Jia Xu came at night to never talk about this matter, and the matter of breaking the Yellow River, even if Jia Xu was poisonous, he should know that Zhao Xu and the others would never agree, so Jia Xu could never just talk about this matter, it would be too stupid. At that moment, he asked, "Wenhe, why are you here?" Let's get straight ahead! ”
"Alas! It's all my fault for being cheap-mouthed and delaying time. Jia Xu suddenly remembered, slapped himself fiercely, and said: "Boxiong, don't hide it, I came to say that you have to be careful to take precautions, and the enemy may come to rob the camp!" On the battlefield, one word is wrong, and the whole game is lost, Boxiong, don't be careless! (To be continued!) )
