Five miles away, Zhang Xun led 5,000 Huainan troops to lurk behind a hillside. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

It was not far from Wei Bojun's camp, but because of the remote terrain and its location behind the Liang army, the Liang army's scouts did not notice it.

Speaking of which, this kind of long-range attack operation is not the first time Zhang Xun has done it, when the battle of Qingkou was held, Zhang Xun led his troops to launch a surprise attack on Pang Shigu's department and killed Pang Shigu in one fell swoop.

Later, Chen Hanbin, the assassin of Haizhou appointed by Zhu Quanzhong, took the initiative to take refuge in Huainan, but he maintained a relationship with Huainan.

Zhang Xun was a Lianshui guerrilla envoy at that time, and one day suddenly led 3,000 people to Haizhou, Chen Hanbin was caught off guard and did not dare to resist, and finally could only obediently ask for surrender, and since then Haizhou has really become a part of Huainan.

With past experience, Zhang Xun is naturally very familiar with how to sneak in and how to choose the timing of the attack.

"General Qiyu, the Liang army used the Suzhou artillery as a cover to launch a large army to besiege the camp of the Wei Bo army from three sides, and the current number of troops invested has exceeded 30,000 people!"

"General Qiyu, the Liang army withdrew the army that participated in the attack just now for rest, and at the same time sent other troops to attack, Wei Bo's army suffered heavy losses, and there was already chaos in the camp!"

"General Qiyu, the Wei Bo army suddenly launched a counterattack when the Liang army withdrew to rest and recuperate, destroying more than a dozen Suzhou guns of the Liang army, but the more than 2,000 Wei Bo troops who attacked were surrounded and wiped out by the Liang army."

……

As time passed, the scouts kept sending back the battle situation of the Liang army, and the generals spoke out one after another, believing that this place was too close to the Liang army and could be discovered by the Liang army scouts at any time, so they asked for immediate battle, taking advantage of the Liang army's unpreparedness to launch a surprise attack from the rear.

However, no matter how the generals asked to fight, Zhang Xun remained silent, closing his eyes and recuperating himself.

Over time, the generals also knew that Zhang Xun had a definite idea of the timing of the attack, and he would definitely not change his decision until the time came.

Time continued to pass, and at noon, new news came, "General Qiyu, I just got the news that the Liang army broke through the camp of the Wei Bo army from the east, and more than a thousand Liang troops broke into the camp of the Wei Bo army, and the Wei Bo army was in chaos......"

Hearing this news, the generals were in an uproar, the purpose of their troops here was to meet the Wei Bo army, and at this time, the camp of the Wei Bo army was breached, so their mission was a complete failure.

Thinking that everyone had worked so hard and risked to come here, but in the end missed the fighter plane in vain, the generals could no longer sit still, and the voices of the war became more intense.

"General, we can't wait any longer, if we wait any longer, Wei Bojun will be completely defeated! The task assigned by His Highness to our army has failed! ”

"Yes, General, let's attack!"

……

If it weren't for Zhang Xun, as a veteran of Huainan, with outstanding achievements and deep prestige, I am afraid that he would no longer be able to suppress these generals at this time.

"What are you panicking about? All sit down! Zhang Xun, who had been closing his eyes and recuperating, finally opened his eyes, but after scolding the generals, he closed his eyes again.

"Wei Bo's army is not so easy to defeat, and at this time, the time has not yet come!" Then, Zhang Xun said in a deep voice.

The generals looked at each other and couldn't help but be silent.

Zhang Xun is the main general, since he chose to continue to wait and see, the generals are helpless.

Fortunately, after a while, new news came, and Wei Bojun drove out the Liang army that broke into the camp, but he also suffered heavy casualties.

Hearing the news, the generals breathed a sigh of relief.

"As a general, first of all, you must be calm and not easily moved by external objects. You are all still young, and you will have to fight battles in the future, and it is good to be brave and decisive, but you must not forget to be cautious and careful! At this time, Zhang Xun spoke again.

"Zhu Quanzhong has fought for decades, what scene has he not seen? Although he concentrated his forces to storm the camp of Wei Bo's army, he did not relax his vigilance against the outside world, which can be seen from the fact that he always only invested half of his troops to attack, but kept the other troops on guard! ”

"Therefore, the attack of our army at this time, at most, is to relieve the Liang army's attack on the camp of Wei Bo's army, but it is very difficult to defeat them; If you do this, at most you will buy a little time for Wei Bojun, and when Zhu Quanzhong reacts and makes new adjustments, not only will Wei Bojun's camp still not be able to hold it, but our army may be in danger! Zhang Xun said in a deep voice.

When the generals heard this, they all fell into contemplation, many of these generals were young generals selected from various departments, and they were also led by the most elite soldiers in Huainan, including Li Chengding.

The last time he attacked the Battle of Suzhou, don't look at Li Chengding's nervousness before the battle, but when the siege really began, he suddenly seemed to be a different person, not only removed all the fear in his heart, but also calmed down and made appropriate adjustments to the forces of his subordinates with the change of the battle situation, and finally took the lead in taking the city gate, which established the first merit for the victory of the Battle of Suzhou.

In the successive battles with the main force of the Liang army, Li Chengding also performed outstandingly, especially his calm and calm command, which made Yang Wu feel like he had picked up a treasure.

In today's Huainan, except for Li Shenfu, who can be regarded as a wise general, the other generals are basically brave generals, Wang Maozhang, Zhou Ben, Zhang Xun, Liu Cun, etc., all of them.

Although these generals occasionally have excellent performances, it is difficult to win all battles like Li Shenfu.

Li Chengding's appearance brought an unexpected surprise to Yang Wu, praising him for inheriting his father's ability to lead troops, so he was ready to train him.

At this time, after listening to Zhang Xun's words, Li Chengding's heart moved, and he hurriedly asked, "Then when is the general going to attack?" Could it be that it was time for the Liang army to break through Wei Bo's camp? ”

Zhang Xun glanced at Li Chengding with some surprise, and said with a smile: "You can see it!" Yes, the general will wait until the camp of the Wei Bo army is breached before attacking! ”

"At that time, the Liang army must have been very tired after a day of fierce fighting; Moreover, the victory in the battle will also make the Liang army relax and relax their vigilance; In addition, from the point of view of time, the Liang army should not have broken through the camp of Wei Bo's army until night, at least before dark; In this way, it will be more conducive to our army to lurk and engage the enemy! Zhang Xun explained rarely.

"But general, if we wait until the camp of the Wei Bo army is breached, then the loss of the Wei Bo army will definitely not be small, and it may even be wiped out! Your Highness has given you the task ......," Aribu General asked.

"What task did Your Highness give you? His Royal Highness only told Ben General to find a way to defeat the Liang army, as for how many losses Wei Bo's army had or whether the whole army was wiped out, what happened to Ben General? Zhang Xun sneered.

The general couldn't help but be awe-struck when he heard this, Yang Wu's attitude towards Wei Bojun These people are not very clear because their level is not enough, but after listening to Zhang Xun's words, they naturally understood, and they couldn't help but sympathize with Wei Bojun, who was regarded by the Huainan Army as a target to attract Liang Jun's firepower.

At this time, in Wei Bojun's camp, in the face of the excited generals, Shi Renyu no longer knew how to answer their questions.

Obeying Yang Wu's order to stay and resist the Liang army, this was a decision made by Shi Renyu, and the other generals didn't agree very much, and it was Shi Renyu who persuaded everyone on the grounds that he would not be taken seriously if he went to Huainan without merit.

But at this time, the Liang army's attacks were round after round, and in order to break through their camp as soon as possible, the Liang army did not stop even the Suzhou artillery during the attack, although it caused some accidental injuries to the Liang army, but the losses brought to Wei Bojun were greater.

Therefore, in just half a day, in the face of the multi-faceted attack of the Liang army, Wei Bo's army suffered heavy casualties and low morale.

If it weren't for the news of the imminent arrival of the Huainan Army that supported their belief in holding on, they would have collapsed long ago.

"Brothers, at this moment, the Liang army has suffered heavy casualties in order to attack our army camp, if they are beaten in, none of our soldiers in the camp, including you, will definitely not survive! You often fight with the Liang army, don't you know their combat habits? ”

"Either everyone perseveres, and when the reinforcements arrive, everyone has a way to live! Either the camp is breached by the enemy army, everyone is killed, where to go, everyone chooses for themselves! ”

At this time, Shi Renyu also let go, and could only use Liang Jun to intimidate them.

I have to say that this point is still very deterrent, the Liang army will not carry out massacres under normal circumstances, but sometimes the casualties are large, and the massacre will definitely be carried out.

Everyone knows this, so in the face of the crazy attack of the Liang army, they will choose to support it hard.

Under Shi Renyu's persuasion, the somewhat turbulent Wei Bojun regained his composure, but everyone knew that if the Huainan Army reinforcements could not arrive today, then they would definitely not be able to resist until tomorrow.

Soon, the Liang army, which had just rested for less than a quarter of an hour, went out again and continued to attack Wei Bo's camp.

Before the banner of the Liang Army, Zhu Quanzhong asked in a deep voice: "Where are the reinforcements of the Huainan Army?" How long can Han Qing resist? ”

In the afternoon, they got the news that the main force of the Huainan Army was accelerating and was about to join up with the advance led by Wang Maozhang, so Han Qing, the general of the Liang Army, fought and retreated, trying to delay the offensive speed of the Huainan Army and buy time for Zhu Quanzhong here.

It was precisely because Yang Wu's side was fighting very fiercely that Zhu Quanzhong didn't realize until now that there was already a Huainan army of 5,000 people lurking not far from them, waiting to attack them at any time.

"My lord, I have just received the news that the Huainan army is still more than ten miles away from here, and according to the speed of their march, plus they are hurrying again and again, they must need to rest and wait for the arrival of the troops left behind, and then they can engage our army; Therefore, the subordinates estimate that our army has at least one more hour to attack the camp of the Wei Bo army! ”

"An hour?" Zhu Quanzhong frowned, an hour seems to be a long time, but for a war of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people, an hour is really fleeting.

Fortunately, by this time, Wei Bo's army had reached the end of the crossbow, and Zhu Quanzhong estimated that the Liang army would be able to break through their camp in a quarter of an hour at most.
