Chapter Seventy-Nine: Chang Guoan

When Chang Guoan was watching the enemy's formation, Zhang Xuan, Cao Zongyu and others were also looking at Chang Guoan and his party. Chang Guoan's envoy was soon picked up by Luo Dai.

Wang Jiujin is a native of Chang Guoan, Shaanxi Township, and has followed Chang Guoan for the longest time, so he is the most trusted by Chang Guoan, this kind of task to send letters on his behalf, most of them are from him, he is now thirty and four, he has been in battle formations repeatedly, and he is extremely familiar with the things in the battle array, and once he enters Zhang Xuan's camp, he doesn't know that it is not easy to deal with

But he saw that all the soldiers were bulging and wearing hats on their heads, which made him feel that his clothes were a little thin. There's a little chill.

Indeed, Zhang Xuan treated everyone equally, and almost cleaned the entire Linying, just to keep his 3,000 men and horses fed and clothed. Don't underestimate this, in this era, whether it is the Ming army or the rogues, there are a lot of soldiers who are not well fed and clothed.

From this point alone, Wang Jiujin knew that this was the elite.

Don't look at it, the position of this soldier looks loose, in groups, but Wang Jiujin can see it, among them, they are all gathered together with one person as the center, Wang Jiujin secretly said in his heart: "This is probably their chief."

Look at the artillery pieces, all of them are newly cast, and there are bright knives and guns.

"It's hard stubble." Wang Jiujin said secretly in his heart.

"Small, meet Cao Ying's horses." Wang Jiujin saw Zhang Xuan from a distance, and suddenly felt a sense of jealousy in his heart. secretly said in his heart: "Isn't this just a good face?" ”

Zhang Xuan secretly wondered in his heart, he had many names, but it was the first time that he was called Cao Ying's horse. He said, "Get up, but I don't know what General Chang sent you for?" ”

"My general is concerned about the affection of his elders." Wang Jiujin said: "Give your lord a way to live, you will withdraw your army and give him this small commercial bridge." He pretended that nothing had happened, and let you live. If you are obsessed, don't blame him for not talking about the affection of the elders. ”

Zhang Xuan sneered and said: "I see the relationship between the two families before, let you live, I won't kill you, you can go." ”

Wang Jiujin is not a tough person, listening to Zhang Xuan let him go, without saying a word, he turned around and left.

Zhang Xuan said to Cao Zongyu: "It seems that I, an elder, will not attack today. As he spoke, he looked back and saw wolf smoke.

Today's wolf smoke is not as thick as it was at the beginning, but it is still day and night, which is to show its existence to the city. Keep the city going.

Zhang Xuan has gradually accumulated some experience in fighting, and it can naturally be seen that Chang Guoan has not thought about the affection of the elders at all, but just wants to delay time

Zhang Xuan's original intention to be stationed here was just to delay time, delay for about ten days, and wait for the return of King Chuang's army, and then he would be able to see Zuo Liangyu's good looks, but he never expected that under Kaifeng City, hundreds of miles away, not only did not withdraw the army, but also fought fiercely, and wanted reinforcements, within ten days, it was far from enough.

Wang Jiujin told Chang Guoan everything in Zhang Xuan's camp as it was, Chang Guoan touched his beard and said, "It seems that Cao Cao's ability to choose a son-in-law is also good." The order will go down, make dinner at five watch tomorrow morning, line up at dawn, and attack at sunrise. ”

On the whole day of the eleventh day of the first month of the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, the two sides were on the south bank of the Xiaoshang River, more than a mile apart. Looking at each other from afar, except for more than 100 scouts fighting bravely in this open space, other aspects are calm and anxious, only the rumbling cannon sound in the distance comes from the direction of Yuncheng, which seems to be the soundtrack before this big battle.

Before the Chinese New Year, it is the coldest time of the year. And in the early hours of the morning, it is the coldest time of the day, and the Chongzhen period is the coldest time of the Xiaoice River period.

It is a bit of an exaggeration to say that a drop of water turns into ice, but it is undoubtedly true that a basin of water splashed on the ground will become a piece of ice in the blink of an eye.

But on this day, in the Chang Guoan camp, at this coldest time, it was boiling.

Although Zhang Xuan's subordinates all have tents, more soldiers like to rest in the carriage, and the artillery in the carriage has been removed, and a few people are crowded in, which is quite warm. But Zhang Xuan barely closed his eyes, he closed his clothes in a tent, closed his eyes and rested. And snoring hard, the sound came out far away, so that the soldiers on patrol could hear it, so as to calm the hearts of the army.

However, as far as Zhang Xuan himself was, he couldn't sleep. This night, Zhang Xuan was in a daze and slept very shallowly.

It's not that I know if it's nervous or cold. When there was movement on the other side, Zhang Xuan had already been awakened, got out of the tent, and stood in front of the snow wall and looked at it from a distance.

At this moment, the sky was not yet dawn, there was darkness between heaven and earth, there was nothing, only the jump of the bonfire on the opposite side, like a small red dot reflected in Zhang Xuan's eyes. said: "Bury the pot and make rice, and give all the horse meat from the previous days to the soldiers, and don't keep a piece." ”

Zhang Xuan secretly said in his heart: "Today next year may be the death day for many people. ”

The sky slowly brightened, and although the sun had not yet risen, the visibility was slowly improving, and in the two camps, puffs of cooking smoke rose into the sky. Just as the sun was rising in the east, when golden light shot from Zhang Xuan's left hand, Chang Guoan's headquarters had already left the camp and lined up.

Chang Guoan's position is extremely rigorous.

Chang Guoan's more than 1,000 cavalry were divided into two groups, protecting the flanks on the left and right sides. I don't know where a lot of shield cars were requisitioned, and they lined up in front of the formation, a large pile

The men and horses were all behind the formation, and with the slow advance of the shield cart, they moved forward, with an unhurried attitude, showing a calm and calm.

Zhang Xuan took Qin Meng, Wu Laiqing, Zhang Zhen and others, and began to camp quickly, seeing the far left from the right, inspecting every small cannon, as well as gunpowder, and saying a few words to every soldier. Calm the hearts of the military. Zhang Xuan looked calm, he didn't look at the other side at all, and everywhere he passed, it seemed that every soldier was a little calm.

will be brave for the soldiers, and the soldiers will not be afraid of the composure above. It's just that they don't know that Zhang Xuan's heart is like playing a drum. Zhang Xuan finally came to Cao Zongyu and watched the battle with Cao Zongyu.

Cao Zongyu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said to a few gunners: "Can you hit the shield car?" ”

Several gunners looked at it and said, "A little farther, a little closer, you can hit." ”

Zhang Xuan handed over a set of simple aiming methods to the gunner, in fact, most of this kind of small cannons are direct fire, and there is no need to worry about aiming at all, as long as they are aimed and shot, they are almost the same. Therefore, Zhang Xuan was able to get so many gunners in a short time, anyway, Zhang Xuan felt that most of the time, the small cannon was used to hit foot soldiers, and it was only shot, and it was not necessary to hit the head or something. However, he also specializes in training a few soldiers who can shoot accurately. Preparation for the casting of larger artillery in the future. These gunners are the good ones selected by Zhang Xuan.

"Okay." Cao Zongyu said: "You don't have to wait for my order, you can fight if you think you can hit." ”

Sure enough, when the shield cart was three hundred paces, a small cannon suddenly spoke, and a cannonball shot out far away, passing by a shield cart, passing over the shield cart, and hitting the soldiers behind the shield cart. Although this small cannon hit so far that the strength was exhausted, no matter how the shells were exhausted, they were shells, and there was no problem in knocking over a few people. A fist-sized cannonball killed two or three people in a row before it smashed into the snow.

There was an example of the first artillery, and the remaining guns opened fire one after another, although there were not many of them, but they were on good accuracy, and one shell hit the shield car hard. The wooden planks on the top of the shield cart were three inches thick, and the cannonball smashed a hole the size of a bowl, but it didn't penetrate it.

However, it was not penetrated, and the person who pushed the cart was not easy to handle, and one person walked with his chest on his chest, and as a result, he was shocked and shattered his sternum. There were also a few arms that hurt as if they were broken.

Some of these shield carts have been pierced, and some have not been pierced, but regardless of whether they have been pierced or not, all the shield carts that have been shot will stop, and for a while, the neat battle formation has become uneven because of the different progress of the shield carts.

When the shield cart entered the front of the formation a hundred paces. All shield carts stopped.

"Knock knock." The marching drum sounded.
