The 301st Night Raid begins
Since Jin Jue has made up his mind, he can't change it, he explained so much, but he didn't say it to Yang Ang alone, including these guards around him. Because, soon, these people will be sent out to take on the task of being on their own.
Although he had not been with Jin Jue for a long time, Yang Ang had already learned about Jin Jue's habits and style, so he immediately went down to arrange the dispatch of troops.
To divide the troops into two routes, the soldiers are well divided, and the soldiers who have been able to follow closely behind Jin Jue and keep up with the marching speed of these guards around Jin Jue will select the 8,000 soldiers sent in front of the team to carry out the task of attacking the county seat of Fuxian County at night under the leadership of Jin Jue.
Jin Jue used this method to not only select the elite among the 20,000 people, but also completely disrupt the previous structure of the 20,000 people, which laid a good foundation for the next move after taking Fu County.
If you want to implement the plan formulated by Jin Jue to encircle and send reinforcements, Jin Jue's army with its current strength, let alone besieging the city, if Liu Zhang hears the news and immediately sends half of the Dongzhou soldiers in Chengdu City, Jin Jue's army only has one way to defend the city. The difference in strength between the two armies is too much, and the combat power of the Hanzhong soldiers in Jin Jue's hands may not be stronger than the Dongzhou soldiers.
Therefore, Jin Jue planned to disperse his guards and soldiers once he took Fu County, and let them go to the people of Shu County to recruit local young people to harvest grain while recruiting soldiers.
The military establishment of ancient China, recorded in the Book of the Later Han Dynasty: there are five general camps, each of which is led by a captain; There is a song under the subordinates, and there is a soldier waiting for a person; There is a tun under the song, and the tun is long.
How many soldiers can the tun commander lead? There is a record in the Book of Shang Jun that five tithes are long, and one hundred people are one general. That is to say, the tun chief commanded fifty people. But according to what Jin Jue learned, between Qu Junhou and Tunchang, there are two military establishments - officers and teams.
A team commands a hundred soldiers, which is equivalent to the later hundred chiefs, and the number of soldiers in charge of an officer is uncertain, but as long as it is mainly two hundred or three hundred, if it is a baggage army, the number of soldiers under the command of one officer is five hundred.
Considering the situation in Shu County, coupled with the number of guards around Jin Jue, he finally decided to set the number of soldiers under the command of an officer in his army to five hundred. The situation in the counties of Shu County is also a forest of wealthy clans and local large and medium-sized landlords, and almost every township has a manor established by these local forces, which not only erects a wall, but also equips the villagers with weapons, which is almost equivalent to the local group training in later generations.
And most of these people will become the next key targets of Jin Juejun's attack.
……
After the army stopped stationing, Jin Jue's eyes were closed, but these thoughts kept flying in his mind, and he didn't rest at all.
I don't know how long it took, Bao Chu, who was beside him, suddenly patted him on the shoulder and said softly: "Childe, the time has come!" ”
"The hour has come, what time has it been?" Jin Jue came to his senses, but after he asked, he understood what Bao meant.
It's time to attack Fuxian County at night!
According to the current situation, the probability of Jin Jue's army taking Fu County in this night attack is very high, but his road is not the point, Wei Yan is the key there, if Wei Yan can take Jinzhu Pass in time, there will be no barrier north of Chengdu to stop Jin Jue's army.
"I hope Wei Yan can take Jinzhu Pass in time and smoothly!" Jin Jue sat up straight, stretched widely, and muttered to himself.
After taking the water bladder handed over by Bao Chu, Jin Jue poured it violently, and then ordered in a deep voice: "Tell me to go down and send troops immediately!" ”
With Jin Jue's order, 8,000 soldiers who had already packed up and stopped lined up in a neat line, and immediately set off for Fuxian.
Half an hour ago, Yang Ang had already led 10,000 soldiers to set off first.
At this time, the entire land of Shu County fell into a state of tranquility.
Looking at the night sky of Fuxian County on this night, a bright moon hangs in the sky, and the soldiers who shine can see the road under their feet. Strictly speaking, such a situation is not too suitable for launching a night attack, Jin Jue didn't expect that today's weather is so good, and it happens to be a full moon.
However, Jin Jue knew that at this time, he was already ready to send an arrow, and if he ordered to stop the attack, it would inevitably hit the morale of his subordinates.
The soldiers have been marching in a hurry, in fact, everyone is holding back a lot of strength in their hearts, if at this time, Jin Jue disperses the hearts of the soldiers, it will be difficult for him to boost their morale in the next battle.
……
"Childe, go to the city! Please show me! ”
I don't know how long it took, the army finally arrived outside the north gate of Fuxian County, and at this time, there were guards who reported to Jin Jue's side. Before sending troops, Jin Jue did not announce the specific siege strategy, so at this time, the generals were waiting for Jin Jue to issue a specific siege order.
According to common sense, Jin Jue should allocate a part of his forces to other directions in Fuxian, and when launching a surprise attack, he should disturb the judgment of the defenders in the city.
It's just that the south gate and west gate of Fuxian County are close to the Fujiang River, and only the north and east are plains, so dividing the soldiers outside the south gate and west gate may not have the effect of disturbing the enemy, but will disperse the small amount of power in their hands.
Therefore, Jin Jue decided to concentrate his forces to attack only one city wall, and if the battle did not go well, according to the plan agreed in advance, once Jin Jue lit the beacon fire, Yang Ang would suddenly attack from the east of the city.
Doing so can also have the effect of attacking the east and the west, and attacking the unprepared.
"This night attack, this son has no specific instructions, you can concentrate on attacking a city wall, give orders to go down, and when leading the troops to attack the city, remember two main points.
First, empty the defenders on the northern wall as soon as possible.
Second, open the North City as soon as possible.
Once these two missions are completed, the night raid will be able to kill fewer brothers. Jin Jue commanded.
"No!"
Jin Jue's army launched a night attack, starting from Caohan City, and its methods and steps to capture the city still did not change much.
It is still better to send people under the city to throw flying claws at the city walls first, rather than carrying a sufficient number of ladders to climb the city with the help of ladders like other armies.
Compared with the ladder, the combination of claws and ropes, although it is relatively difficult to climb, but this combination of climbing tools is very convenient to carry, and the army can prepare a lot of these tools at one time.
Therefore, outside the land of a stone's throw, with the help of the bright moonlight, Jin Jue looked at the countless flying grabs under the city that flashed with cold light, and flew up to the city with a long rope.
Soon, the night raid of Fuxian County kicked off.
