Chapter 834: The Great Army Pressed the Realm
(The two deputy versions have worked hard, talk about their hearts, the "G ruthless man" general has always been brave, and he is on the same table here!) I can't write it in the chapter)
It is very appropriate to use the collective race to describe the current battle of Qingzhou, but the speed is the place where the soldiers must fight, Guo Fengxiao has said that "the soldiers are noble and fast" can be described as appropriate, when the march of Qingzhou Yanzhou is in full swing, Cao Cao's army also quickly arrived at Jiameng Pass, and did not do too much to stop, the offensive against Hanzhong has been launched, 300,000 Cao troops came out of Xiongguan, and the brunt of the soldiers is the Yan army Dazhai under Zhang Xiu'an camp!
Zhang Xiu stood on the corner tower of Dazhai, holding an iron pipe in his hand and facing the majestic army of Cao Jun who came from afar, although the neat team of black pressure was far away, it also brought him a mountain of pressure, and a person wearing a red robe and gold armor looked majestic under the cyan cover, and the ministers and generals next to him defended each other, this person is no stranger to the public, it is Cao Mengde, who is known as the traitor in the troubled times, when he was in Luoyang City, he and his uncle Zhang Ji had a reason, and the two families were also friends in the world, but they unexpectedly became a life-and-death opponent on the battlefield today, And it is still the most dangerous opponent.
Needless to say, this iron pipe is from the hand of Wei Cuizeng, a skilled craftsman in the instrument department, this thing is currently the highest technical secret in the Yan army, and it is only equipped to the commander level, Zhang Xiu was only issued after serving as the commander of the Chang'an battalion, but he had seen this thing in Zhang Liao's hands that day, Wen Yuan was also very impressed by this, saying that this thing can be worth 10,000 male soldiers! Zhang Xiu at this time still remembers the shock of his first observation from the clairvoyant mirror, although this object is from the hands of the instrument, but the designer is the king of Yan, immediately rose up the heart of the mountain, the king of Yan is both civil and military, military and political are fine, how can there be such a means is not amazing? It seems that in addition to archery and rhythm, King Yan is almost proficient in everything, and I really don't know where he got these knowledge.
At this time, Cao Cao's army was still four or five miles away from Zhang Xiu's camp, and Cao Cao's beard fluttering could even be seen in the clairvoyant mirror, which was worthy of its name! With this thing in hand, you can get an opportunity on the battlefield, and for the two sides who are evenly matched, the first move is extremely important, and it can even determine the success or failure of a big war.
But at this time, in addition to allowing Zhang Xiu to see the military strength of the Cao army in advance, it did not play a big role in the battle situation, here Dazhai he had more than 20,000 soldiers, of which the Chang'an battalion and the Hanzhong army were half, and the enemy army that came with Cao Cao was at least 80,000, so Zhang Xiu did not dare to guarantee that he would be able to hold Dazhai. Fortunately, the military order given to him by Zhang Hu was only to consume the enemy's sharp energy, and it was necessary to block the attack, but there was no need to stick to it, and Ma Mengqi's 30,000 Sizhou iron cavalry had already arrived thirty miles behind him, and the reinforcements of the military division were also on the way to Hanzhong.
Three thousand archers on the gatehouse of the walled city are waiting for each other, and there is a bed crossbow between every hundred people, this thing is also the latest production of the instrument, which is more flexible and lightweight than before, and the gap between the firing has also been adjusted, because its transformation is mainly from the hands of the white ink in the instrument, the name of the Yan army is the ink crossbow, and the name of the new instrument with the greatest contribution is also Liu Yi's initiative, and for those skilled craftsmen, this is the greatest honor, and it has become one of their tireless pursuits! It was only equipped in the equipment camp four months ago, and the crossbow bolts fired by it could penetrate six layers of heavy armor within fifty paces, which was a powerful weapon in the defense! Behind these crossbowmen is a line of twenty-eight bombardment cannons, each of which is a pile of polished round stones on the side of each bombardment cannon, these days the Chang'an battalion almost the whole army is dispatched to prepare these materials, Zhang Xiuzhi wants to rely on the power of the city to give the Cao army great damage These sophisticated equipment is indispensable, this first battle in Hanzhong he wants to play the prestige of the Yan army!
Zhang Xiu through the clairglass in his hand can see the Cao army's military formation four or five miles away, but Cao Cao is not so lucky, to the Yan army four miles away from the village, Cao Jun Qi stopped, Cao Cao and a cadre of generals are observing Zhang Xiu's Dazhai in detail, with their experienced vision and countless times of experience in attacking the city, the advantages and disadvantages are naturally known at a glance, and the detailed observation of the enemy situation in the war, especially in the battle has a very key role, Seize the weak points of the enemy's fortress or city and attack them to minimize the casualties of the soldiers!
"Liu Langsheng is known to know people and make good use of the name, and his command is indeed quite a good general, like Gan Xingba, Zhao Zilong, Xu Gongming, Zhang Junyi are all the choice of the moment, when I fought with Lu Bu Yanzhou, I deeply loved his generals Zhang Liao Zhang Wenyuan, and I regretted that this person was obtained by Liu Yi, if it was not for such a good general to use troops calmly, how could he come to Sizhou to win? Looking at this embroidered village elite police can be integrated with the terrain, when there is a famous general's posture, I think that Cao Mou and his uncle Zhang Ji in Luoyang had an old relationship, and it can be regarded as an old friend, but now it is going to fight on the battlefield, but these confusing actions have made Cao small, and I heard that Lang Sheng often mentions things under his command, and it seems that it may not be true. After a moment of careful observation, Cao Cao slowly spoke, although he and Liu Yi are fierce rivals, they have not fought less, one calls the other party a thief, and the other is called a traitor, but they have never belittled each other's abilities.
"What the lord said is that Beiping Youzhou Academy is famous all over the world, among which there is still a Youzhou Martial Arts Academy, which is personally deaned by Liu Langsheng, and there are also so-called teaching materials handed down, which is indirectly quite sophisticated, "Shima Xiaoxiong shows me to be weak, and the military spirit is strong to show me not to fight." "Now this public bank and the camp are full of flags, it must be because of the lack of heart, but it is far from what Liu Yi said, but its village does have ingenuity, and our army is afraid that there will be a hard battle if it is forcibly attacked." Xun Yu said on the side, he paid great attention to the news of the states in Youzhou.
In history, Cao Cao is an unborn master of the art of war, and he was the first to make a preface to Sun Tzu's Art of War, Liu Yi's move is by no means to seek any reputation with it, but purely in order to improve the ability of the generals under his command to unify the army, Xun Yu Fangcai said two sentences naturally not from Liu Yi's mouth, the specific source Lang Sheng has been difficult to remember, only know that it is the Tang Dynasty general Li Jing said, the meaning is to show the enemy to weak, this method he used in the battle of Sizhou played an excellent effect, How could he not popularize these successful experiences throughout the army?
There is a well-known battle in the Three Kingdoms called the Lost Street Pavilion, later generations are a smash hit Peking Opera famous section, called "Lost Space Chop" is the collective name of the Lost Street Pavilion, the empty city plan, and the Chopping Horse, this story is well known to everyone and does not need to be detailed, today Zhang Xiu is a place to facilitate the street pavilion is somewhat similar! Of course, as the commander of the Chang'an battalion, Zhang Gongxing is not a horse young man who talks about soldiers on paper, his military village stands honestly in the avenue, and also chooses a certain slope, Cao Jun wants to attack on the back, and the surrounding mountains are also quite well coordinated, as for those who confuse the enemy's banners, it is also a last resort, after all, the troops in his hands are insufficient, if Liu Yi is here, there will never be this move.
"Hehe, when will Liu Langsheng write a book and speak? His handwriting is miserable, it really doesn't match his identity, but this person is indeed capable of governing the army, no matter how Zhang Gongxing bluffs, his insufficient strength is inevitable, our army should not delay and attack here, but it is necessary to frustrate the enemy's morale first, Gongyi, you lead five hundred flying bears to ride to the front of the village to challenge, I expect Zhang Xiu will not dare to come out, Yuan let Zilian go with him, and send the order to go down to the whole army to prepare for battle, and attack the village at any time! "Liu Yijun's strong Cao Cao is well aware, but at this time, his fierce generals are all over Youzhou, but there is no one who can compete with evil in this state, and he should use his fighting generals to defeat his morale and attack it again!
"No!" As soon as the three generals and horses bowed, they led the iron cavalry to the Yan army Dazhai!
