Chapter 100: The Third Day of the Second Month

Just after the dragon raised its head, the weather was still very warm, and from a distance, there was a touch of green on the ground, but when it got closer, it was not clear that it was the season when the grass was far away but there was nothing. There were still traces of cultivation just out of Linying City, but after walking four or five miles, it became a barren land again.

Zhang Xuan did not ride on a horse, but walked like a soldier, and Li Zicheng rewarded Zhang Xuan's three hundred horses all for pulling the cart.

However, Zhang Xuan felt that it was appropriate.

It's just that Zhang Xuan's psychology is different now, before he had a gun car as a support, he had the heart to stick to the field, but at this moment Zhang Xuan did not use the car formation as a support, and he didn't have artillery in his hands, these vans were just camping faster.

Nearly 100 miles west of Linying. It's Xiangcheng.

At this moment, Xiangcheng was under Wang Qiaonian's strict orders, and the army was also mobilized.

However, the actions of the Qin army were not as neat as those of Zhang Xuan's subordinates. Several days of marching galloping, not to mention between Luoyang and Xiangcheng, although it is not called surrounded by mountains, it is actually not flat, not that all Henan is a flat river. And it is indeed a fact that the Qin army is hungry, cold, tired, and demoralized.

It's just that Wang Qiaonian doesn't care about what these soldiers are, his art of war is just read from books, he has determination, but he has never practiced it, and the officials Wang Qiaonian served before him have not really come into contact with military positions, and his military talent is only limited to good words and military affairs.

It's just a good word and a military thing.

After three strokes in the sun, the Qin army brigade finally started. Mighty towards the southeast.

Under the city of Yuncheng, a group of rebels is arrayed under the city, the formation is extremely strict, each battalion has a division of labor, there are blockades of each city gate, vigilance of the left army in the city to come out of the sneak attack, and in the camp of the camp, there are patrols around, it can be said that it is foolproof, but the speed is relatively slow. It wasn't until a whole morning of busy work that the army slowly moved northwest.

Zuo Liangyu was above the city and watched it all morning.

"They are clearly afraid of their father's military might," Zuo Mengeng said, "Should we send troops to pursue?" ”

Zuo Liangyu sighed in his heart, if it was another general who asked this question, Zuo Liangyu would have to teach him a good lesson, but Zuo Mengeng was his own son after all. He said: "The thief army is in a strict formation, if you go out to fight at this moment, will you fight with the thief army in the field?" ”

Zuo Liangyu's implication was that if he had the certainty of defeating the thief army in the field, why should he shrink into Yuncheng.

"Is the thief army trying to lure our army into battle?" Zuo Menggeng's brain was wide open.

Zuo Liangyu didn't want to answer.

Because in Zuo Liangyu's opinion, the facts are obvious enough.

If Li Zicheng wants to lead the left army into battle, he will definitely show it

There are some flaws, where to catch fish without bait, and Li Zicheng is now clearly impeccable. This shows that Li Zicheng has no intention of fighting under Yuncheng, and can only be said to have reinforcements coming.

But where did the reinforcements come from?

This made Zuo Liangyu puzzled.

Zuo Liangyu understands very well in his heart, now the generals everywhere don't want to fight with the thief army, let alone fight hard with their own capital to break into the camp in order to save others, Zuo Liangyu himself doesn't do such a thing, how can he expect others to do this? It's just like this. But I didn't know that the wronged boss had arrived.

"Send the order down, let the whole army spill out all the night, I want to know what's going on outside?" Zuo Liangyu said.

Before, the camp Cao Ying surrounded the entire Yuncheng. Zuo Liangyu sent out the night did not collect, and nine out of ten died under the city, and only one or two people could come and go freely.

And the night is the elite of the whole army, even among the left army, there are not many, it is Zuo Liangyu's heart, he is reluctant to such a loss, so he gave up the night not to collect out of the city, but looking at today's meaning, the thief army really has to leave, and the blockade of Yuncheng has been lifted. Therefore, Zuo Liangyu wanted to know who the divine came to help.

The day passed quickly in the midst of a grueling march.

Zhang Xuan didn't expel the soldiers and walked very fast.

After all, in the situation that the enemy may be encountered at any time, it is particularly important to maintain physical strength and maintain the physical strength that can fight at any time.

As soon as his army left the boundary of Linying County, it was already afternoon.

The army was encamped. Zhang Xuan paid special attention to this point, relatively close to the battlefield, and this was likely to be the last stronghold to hold on. And the other side is all cavalry. There is camp protection, and there is no camp protection, which is a completely different situation. Luo Dai left the camp with four or five people and went around to investigate.

When it was completely dark, he returned to the camp.

"What?" Zhang Xuan was taken aback and said, "Are you saying that more than ten miles to the south, there is a large group of officers and soldiers camped?" ”

Luo Dai said: "Yes, most of them are cavalry, at least there are more than 10,000, but they are divided into four camps, three in the east and one in the west. It looked as if the camp on the west side was garrisoned by a senior official, and I didn't dare get too close. Luo Dai took a big sip of water while watching Zhang Xuan's reaction, and in his eyes, three words that he had not yet spoken: "What should I do?" ”

After a battle, Zhang Xuan already has considerable prestige in the hearts of his subordinates, even the unruly Luo Dai, when encountering such a major event, the first thing to think of is to let Zhang Xuan take the idea, rather than making decisions on his own.

Zhang Xuan got up and paced back and forth.

Is it more than ten miles away?

Not far at all. Zhang Xuan was not discovered by the official army today, it was simply protected by God, but

It's tomorrow morning, I don't want to be discovered, but it's unlikely, Zhang Xuan doesn't think his luck will be so good.

Most likely, early tomorrow morning, he will face a siege by a large group of cavalry.

That's fine.

Zhang Xuan has no other confidence, but the confidence in defending the fortress has also been established, if he strengthens the camp overnight, but how many people outside come to attack, Zhang Xuan has confidence and will hold on for a while.

But is persistence enough?

Zhang Xuan kept in mind that his task was to contain Wang Qiaonian for a day.

There must be a reason why Luo Rucai gave him this order, which means that the main army needs this day. If he let go of Wang Qiaonian and let him complete the front and back attacks with Zuo Liangyu and defeat the main force of Cao Ying's camp, the righteous army would be able to survive this defeat, and Zhang Xuan would be able to be alone?

"No, it is likely that the rebels fled eastward in a hurry, and the brigade and the rear battalion were all thrown to the officers and soldiers, including me and Linying." Zhang Xuan thought secretly. As soon as he thought of this, he felt some chills on him.

Zhang Xuan's pace was getting slower and slower, he meant that today's decision did not only affect himself, but also affected many people, and he dared not make hasty decisions.

"General, what the hell are we going to do? Is it advance or retreat? Luo Dai said impatiently.

Zhang Xuan's heart was shocked, and he suddenly understood that no matter what the decision was, hesitation was definitely not a good decision. Zhang Xuan said: "It is absolutely impossible to retreat, not to mention that the night march is not small, maybe it will be discovered, and the commander alone will not be able to pass." If we hold on, we will be safe, but if the officers and soldiers do not pay attention to us at all, we will be safe, but if the army is attacked, we will die and there is only one way. ”

Luo Dai's whole person became excited, and said, "The general is preparing to attack the enemy army at night. ”

Zhang Xuan gritted his teeth and said, "Yes." ”

Night attack is a very dangerous military operation, however, Zhang Xuan is not unable to see the hope of victory, although there are 10,000 people in the official army, but they are all cavalry, cavalry is certainly more useful than foot soldiers in many times, but cavalry than foot soldiers when camping, there is a major insecurity factor, that is, horses.

Although their horses are all war horses and are all trained, it does not mean that trained war horses will not have night terrors. In addition, Wang Qiaonian asked the soldiers to camp separately and divided them into four large camps, and there were only 3,000 people in each camp. Instead, the forces were scattered.

In fact, most of the camps of the large army were divided into camps, after all, tens of thousands of people were stationed together, which brought a great burden to the camp. Splitting camps is also a solution.

But Wang Qiaonian was too scattered. This gave Zhang Xuan an opportunity.

After Zhang Xuan made up his mind, he only felt relieved, but he was not so nervous, and there was only one thing left, and the brave won when they met on a narrow road.
