39 stormed Quyang

The crowd dispersed, and Huangfu Song was the only one left.

"Won't you be disappointed if I do this?" Huangfu Song motioned for Zhang He to sit down and asked amiably.

"No, it won't." Zhang He clenched his fists, "On the contrary, I am very grateful to you, I was brought to Luoyang by Lu Zhonglang, and the art of commanding troops he taught has benefited me a lot in my life." Now that he is in trouble, I can help, of course, I will not refuse. ”

"Well," Huangfu Song nodded, "Not only that, you are the first merit every time, so that your colleagues will have opinions about you, especially last time I arranged you into the rear army, you can still kill Zhang Liang, which will make them appear incompetent." Are they incompetent? Actually, no, so they don't say it, but they may hold a grudge in their hearts. ”

"In order to dispel this kind of thought, I will transfer your first credit to Zigan, of course, your credit must be good, you can rest assured."

Zhang He hugged his fists again, "Thank you for the maintenance and love of the handsome, Zhang He has nothing to repay, so he can only fight bravely to kill the enemy to comfort the handsome!" ”

Huangfu Song waved his hand, anyway, he told him what he should say, if he didn't understand, there was no way.

Zhang He retired, and his scouts outside the door were waiting for him, "General, he's here." ”

Zhang He glared at him, "He? Who is it? You're not up to par with this herald? ”

The scout scratched his head, "General, I don't know him, it's the guy across the river who you asked him to join the army, he came to report, and he is still outside the camp, do you want to take a look?" ”

Zhang He sighed, "In the future, I will directly make it clear once that the scout order is not only fast, but also accurate, understand?" ”

Seeing the scout nodding like a chicken pecking rice, Zhang He was satisfied, "Let's go, let's see our new comrades-in-arms." ”

Outside the camp, the young man stood with his arms crossed with long wooden guns and packages on his back, and the guards watched him vigilantly, so that he did not see it, and poked it safely.

"Hahaha, come in," Zhang He said a few words to the guard, and the guard moved the rejection horse away and let the camp gate open, "I don't know what your name is?" Let's talk. ”

Zhang He grabbed the young man's shoulders and said to the scout, "Go, call your General Han."

"My name is Zhang He, a native of Hejian," Zhang He introduced to the young man, "and the one who came in later is called Han Haozi Yuanhe, a native of Hanoi." ”

Saying that, Zhang He took him into the tent, followed by Han Hao also came in, "General, are you looking for me?" ”

Zhang He pointed to the seat next to him, "Come and sit, no, a brother has come to let you know." ”

Han Hao sat next to him and looked at the young man opposite, "Isn't this the acting village chief in the village this afternoon?" Figured out that you're going to join the army? ”

The young man hugged his fist, "I've seen two generals, and I've figured it out, if you don't join the army, you may not even be able to protect the people of a village, and if you join the army, you may be able to protect the people of a country." ”

"Insightful!" Zhang He clapped his hands and praised, "The strong man has a big name? ”

The young man smiled shyly, "Don't be famous." ”

Han Hao didn't react, "The surname of the strong man is high? ”

"Hmm."

"Surname, huh?"

"The surname is Gao."

Zhang He had nothing to say about the brain holes of these two people, "Brother Gao Ran, do you have a table?" ”

Gao Ran shook his head, "My father's immortal went early, and he didn't have time to give me the word name, there are not many literate people in the village, but the third uncle calls me Ah Huan, so I'll call Ah Huan." ”

Zhang He nodded, "No problem." Ah Huan, our department once had a big battle in Yanzhou, the team was greatly reduced, the newly recruited taxis have not undergone a lot of military training, and our officer reserves are also insufficient, I want to appoint you to be a Dubo first, lead the troops to train in peacetime, and lead the troops to listen to orders in wartime, can you do it? ”

Gao Ran happily accepted the order, and Han Hao took him to his soldiers to hand him over.

The next day, Huangfu Song was in a good mood, led the army to pull out the camp, and set off to Quyang, Zhang He was also surprised that something good happened, and he heard that the people next to him said that Zhang Jiao's cemetery was found, and Zhang Jiao's coffin was killed, and the heads of other thieves were sent to Beijing together.

Zhang He shuddered, Huangfu Song is really a natural soldier, and sometimes, I have to admire his obedience ability, which is definitely incomparable to others. Emperor Ling wants to open his horns, even if he has already been buried, he has to dig it out and cut it off, which is simply terrifying.

Zhang Bao had already received the news, crying and grabbing the ground, and knowing that he couldn't run, he built a high wall, accumulated grain, and defended Quyang.

Zhang Bao deliberately asked the men in Quyang City to help defend the city, from sixty old men to more than a dozen teenagers, and they did not let go. In order to coerce them, the Yellow Turban Lux kidnapped their wives and children, and for a while, people were panicked, and a tragic atmosphere surrounded the entire Quyang City.

When the Huangfu Song soldiers came to the city, it happened that the giant deer Taishou Guo Dian also arrived with the soldiers, and the two parties met to discuss the matter of the thief.

Guo Dian still has a lot of respect for Huangfu Song, especially since he has fought with more than half of the rebellious Yellow Turban thieves, and they have all won, he is simply a god of war.

"What is General Huangfu's opinion?" Guo Dian asked Huang Fu Song's opinion, "We are now stationed at the south gate and the west gate, do we want to enclose another gate, and surround three and lack one?" ”

"Circumference of three missing one is indeed a good strategy to break the enemy." Huangfu Song praised Guo Dian's opinion, but saw that his expression was solemn, "But it is not our goal to destroy the enemy, our goal is to rehabilitate." So I suggest attacking from all sides and taking Quyang City directly. ”

"This..."Guo Dian hesitated a little on his face, "Our soldiers do not have a great advantage in numbers, on the contrary, according to my observation, the number of Yellow Turbans in Quyang is more than 100,000, far more than us. ”

Huangfu Song nodded, "Indeed, this is very troublesome, without twice the army, it is difficult to capture the siege; Without four times as many troops, we can't stop them from escaping. ”

Guo Dian said again: "If we surround three and lack one, and then ambush the troops at that city gate, and wait until the Yellow Turban escapes, we will rush and kill and break the door, but we can win the battle, what does General Huangfu think?"

Huangfu Song frowned and pondered, and when he saw Cao Cao's thinking posture, his expression changed inexplicably, and he said by name: "Meng De, do you have any ideas to break Quyang?" If you have one, you may wish to say it. ”

Cao Cao nodded, "It is said that Zhang Bao is the only one among the three brothers who is familiar with military strategy, I don't know if this information is accurate?" ”

Guo Dian nodded, "That's right, whether it's military training, military formation, or even strategy, Zhang Bao has used it, saying that there is no problem with the rough army, and the intelligence is accurate." ”

"Then you must know that the three are missing one." Cao Cao livened up the atmosphere, "Although the first article of the military strategy is not this, those who learn the military strategy know it, no problem." ”

Everyone nodded, and Cao Cao continued: "Since he can think of it, then we can completely abandon the defense of one door, so that Zhang Bao's heart is full of, 'Why would General Huangfu choose such a simple strategy?' This kind of doubt, then Zhang Bao will tell the Yellow Turban thieves that there is an ambush outside the door, and do not have the idea of escaping from here. ”

Seeing Huangfu Song nodded, Cao Cao continued: "Then in front of this city gate, let the heralds go, they will not dare to fight when they see a figure, we will empty this gate and attack the other three gates."

Huangfu Song clapped his hands and praised, and took the words, "Meng De's idea is very innovative, and it is very useful for a person like Zhang Bao who has a rough military strategy but no great ability. ”

"Then let me tell you the order of attacking the gate, what should we do to take the city gate as soon as possible, now we are the south gate, Guo Taishou is at the west gate, and we will send another army from the east gate to the north gate, giving them the impression that the east gate also has an army."

"Divide the combat strength of the army into four echelons, the third echelon on the south gate on the first day, the fourth echelon on the north gate, the first echelon prepares for war, and the second echelon responds. Then they will feel that we will take the south gate and focus on defending the south gate. ”

Huangfu Song's eyes must have been, "Guo Taishou sent half of his troops and the third echelon to attack the south gate the next day to attract their attention, and the first and second echelons stormed the north gate and fought down!" The fourth echelon is ambushed outside the east gate, and if the city is down, the east gate will be opened to welcome you into the city. ”

The generals gladly accepted the order, Cao Cao's troops were the first soldiers before, and they were not very well preserved, so they were the second echelon, as for Zhang He, they were all recruits with serious battle damage, and they could only be the fourth echelon.

And Zhang He specially instructed not to attack, and let the other teams in the fourth echelon lead the team to shout and cheer.

Han Hao was a little disappointed when he learned the news, "General, isn't there no battle for us to be the fourth echelon?" ”

Zhang He smiled, "It's better, otherwise this group of new brothers hasn't practiced a few times, and half of them will die in battle, how uncomfortable it will be for me." ”

Early the next morning, the shouts of killing broke the tranquility of the dawn, and Huangfu Song personally beat the drum to urge the siege.

After fighting all morning, Guo Dian deliberately ran from the west gate, "General, the guards in the city are all innocent people!" They are all coerced, there are hostages, and we can't do it! ”

Huangfu Song snorted coldly, "Do you want to take care of the safety of the hostages, and let the soldiers under you and me lose their lives in vain?" Since their group of hostages did not resist and died generously, then it means that they have no qualities worthy of our protection! Don't care about it, break the city! ”

Guo Dian looked sad, this is not the people under the rule of your Emperor Fu Song, of course you are not distressed! But he had to admit that Huangfu Song was right, war should have been cruel.

When Guo Dian returned to Ximen to continue to supervise the army, Cao Cao said to Huangfu Song with great admiration: "General, your approach is the most suitable way, and you can be the law of eternity." ”

Huangfu Song shook his head, "There are many times when things are not right and should be done, but now it is wartime, so I can do what I think is right, because I am one of the supreme commanders of this war and have this power." ”

"On the contrary, there are many correct things that we can't do in normal times, because to follow the requirements, there will be many checks and balances, and a few middle servants are the more obvious ones in this checks and balances." Huangfu Song sighed, "What I can do is to seek government in his position." ”

"Then when we win a big victory and the class teacher returns to the court, it will..."Cao Cao said in a low voice, and was glared back by Huangfu Song, "Silence!" This is the first and last time I hear this phrase from your mouth. ”

Cao Cao clenched his fists and took a deep breath, this Emperor Fu Song, if he said something unpleasant, he was the same kind of person as Wen Zhongwen Taishi when he was the king of Shang, just a knife in the emperor's hand, and he did not have the thoughts that a patriot should have.
