Chapter 21: Raid on the Yellow Turban (Collect)
The generals in the army said yes one after another, and then left the Chinese army in a hurry, and it was not long before the time for the army to go to war, and they needed to return to the army to prepare.
Raids, what must be done is absolute concealment, if the news leaks, the raid will lose the corresponding effect.
Only by attacking the enemy by surprise can it cause a greater degree of panic among the enemy army.
"Zilong, follow General Ben." The sect member's tone was slightly eager.
Zhao Yun nodded solemnly, the raid on the Yellow Turban Army was based on his advice, if it succeeded, he would get more credit for it, which was definitely something to be proud of for the righteous commander, maybe he would go to a higher position because of it.
However, the Yellow Turban Army has a great advantage in the number of troops compared with the Han Army, and it is not easy to complete the defeat of the Yellow Turban.
"Zilong, this general will be in charge of the raid later, if Zilong is involved, I wonder if Zilong can have confidence?" The sect member asked.
Zhao Yun said without hesitation: "The last general will definitely do his best to complete the task ordered by the general." ”
"Okay, Zilong is a fierce general, and with Zilong accompanying him on this trip, he will definitely be able to win." The sect member smiled.
Zhao Yun's heart moved, listening to the meaning of the sect member, when he raided the Yellow Turban this time, he would not lead a group of soldiers to carry out a raid, and it was very likely that he would become an assistant to other generals, which was not good news for Zhao Yun, what he longed for the most was naturally to lead a group of soldiers to attack the Yellow Turban, in this way, the credit he got was also the greatest.
"The general has orders, and the general will never give up." Zhao Yun hugged his fists.
"The forces of this raid on the Yellow Turbans are all the elite of the Han army, although there are a lot of elites among the righteous followers, but there is still a big gap in combat power, and this general is responsible for taking the lead in the raid on the Yellow Turbans. Sect member said.
Zhao Yun's heart moved, the captain of the Yue cavalry is the elite of the five schools of the Northern Army, although there are only a thousand people, but with the impact of the cavalry, even on the battlefield of tens of thousands of people, the effect of a thousand cavalry is extremely terrifying, and the captain of the Yue cavalry is in charge of the attached Yue cavalry, and the combat effectiveness of these cavalry is beyond doubt.
But there is a conflict between Zhao Yun and Peng Yi, the captain of the Yue Cavalry, in this kind of character army, will there be a good result.
As if he saw Zhao Yun's concern, the sect member said: "Peng Yi, the captain of the Yue Cavalry, is also a fierce general in the Han army, and when Zilong fights with him, he must not act recklessly, and this general will also warn Peng Yi." ”
Zhao Yun nodded, the five schools of the Northern Army are forbidden troops, and the captains of the five schools of the Northern Army are all people trusted by the emperor, otherwise, it would be impossible to go to such an important position, but Peng Yi's arrogance at the beginning should also teach him a certain lesson.
At the second watch, the soldiers of the Han army were ready for a surprise attack, and Zhao Yun, as the first team, had already left the Han army camp, thousands of cavalry, horses picked Luan bells, and even the horse's hooves were wrapped with cotton cloth, which was also to ensure that the advance would not attract the attention of the enemy.
Seeing Zhao Yun riding a horse coming, Peng Yi snorted coldly.
Zhao Yun said with a smile: "Captain Peng, I don't know how Commander Ben performed on the battlefield yesterday?" ”
The corners of Peng Yi's mouth twitched, the Yue cavalry battalion he led was the elite of the Han army, but it was also easy to be targeted on the battlefield, the standard for cavalry to measure combat merits was naturally different from that of foot soldiers, and it was undeniable that Zhao Yun's performance on the battlefield did give people a sense of amazement.
Seeing Zhao Yun's insolence, the generals in the army glared angrily, about the conflict between Zhao Yun and Peng Yi, the generals in the army naturally understood, and as the captain of the Yue cavalry, they would definitely stand by their general's side.
"Xiao Xiaoyi is under the command, he wins by luck, and he dares to be so presumptuous in front of the general." One of the generals shouted.
Peng Yi coughed lightly and said: "You follow the army, General Ben doesn't mind, but on the battlefield, sometimes, it is not possible to rely on personal martial arts to solve, and now is the key to the battle against the Yellow Turban traitor, the grievances between you and me, it is not too late to talk about it after the Yellow Turban is settled." ”
Zhao Yun nodded secretly, although Peng Yi was arrogant enough in the army before, he could still distinguish between right and wrong in the face of major issues.
"Captain Peng, don't worry, since this commander is here, he will definitely kill more enemy troops!" Zhao Yunlang said.
"When the time comes, General Ben will see what your Excellency is capable of." Peng Yidao, Wen Wu is the first and Wu is the second, defeated in the hands of Zhao Yun, Peng Yi thinks that he is careless.
"Captain Peng will wait and see."
In the darkness, a thousand cavalry slowly moved forward, and after night, most of the soldiers in the army could not see what was nearby, and could only rely on the soldiers who could see clearly at night to lead the way.
Zhao Yun and Yue Cavalry Captain Peng Yi are in the middle of the cavalry, Peng Yi is still afraid of Zhao Yun, mainly because Zhao Yun's marksmanship that day is really too sharp.
In this regard, Zhao Yun was noncommittal, he followed the cavalry to fight, in order to get more credit, what is the combat effectiveness of the cavalry in this era, Zhao Yun did not have a clear understanding, more understanding of the cavalry operations, for the future is of great help.
In the era of cold weapons, cavalry was the king of the battlefield, their strong impact and fast mobility ability can become a nightmare for foot soldiers, and it is not easy to completely wipe out the cavalry team on the battlefield, and the cavalry is mainly in the northeast and northwest of the empire.
Under the cover of the night, thousands of cavalry soon came to a mile away from the Yellow Turban camp, at such a distance, they could ensure that they would not be discovered by the Yellow Turbans, and if there was any emergency, they could respond in time.
The Yellow Turban Camp is protected by simple fences, and removing these fences as silently as possible will be of great help for the next raid.
The fence, more often than not, is equivalent to the soldiers in the city with the protection of the city wall, giving the soldiers in the army a sense of peace of mind.
In the camp, you can see the burning torches everywhere, although the sky is still a little chilly at this time, but there are not many tents in the Yellow Turban camp, and the Yellow Turbans who started in a hurry do not have enough food and grass to carry their weight, and their way of survival is to rely on continuous looting.
Several Yellow Turban soldiers were huddled in the weeds, and only then could they sleep peacefully on a slightly cold night.
At this moment, the antlers and other obstacles arranged outside the fence were constantly cleared for the Han army's foot soldiers.
