Chapter 151: Wolf Hunt
The clouds of Zipeng Mountain are steaming, the green waves are rolling, and the fog is rising. The top of the pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info is flat and open, about 200 acres, green grass, bright wildflowers are dotted, like a small grassland. There is a small lake with a radius of dozens of acres in the middle, the green water is clear and crystal clear, the swimming fish can be seen in the past, the water and grass at the bottom of the lake are abundant, like a sapphire inlaid on the purple Peng Mountain of the blue sea and green waves.
Sun Quan was deeply attracted by the beauty of this place, lingered, and his desire to recapture the Persian Maiden and Hefei was even stronger.
Sun Quan stood in the wind, his clothes fluttering, high-spirited, looking into the distance, and the scenery from far and near was in full view.
Thousands of miles of fertile fields under the mountain, rice millet churning waves, staggered, gray Hefei city stands in a hazy smoke, like a fairyland. Faintly, you can see the flags fluttering on the city tower, the voices of people are noisy, people come and go, and it is very lively. Some carried materials, some repaired the walls, and some patrolled back and forth. On the school ground, Cao Jun's infantry was practicing, the smoke and dust were billowing, people were shouting horses, and shouts were coming and going.
"Look to the north, it's too far away to see clearly." After observing for more than half an hour, Sun Quan was still unsatisfied, and said to the six generals.
"My lord, the terrain in the north of the mountain is gentle, the trees are dense, and it is very close to Hefei City, if the Cao army suddenly launches a sneak attack, the consequences will be unimaginable. It's better to stay here and see. Gan Ning admonished.
"My lord, we agree with General Gan. Let's err on the side of caution. Pan Zhang, Xu Sheng, Ling Tong, Song Ding, and Xu Gu also persuaded Sun Quan not to rush forward.
"It doesn't matter, you are all famous generals who have been in battle for a long time and have been in a hundred battles, how can you be like Zhang Zhao and others who have no power to catch chickens, afraid of wolves and tigers, and can't move forward? Haven't we all been in a no-man's land along the way? Sun Quan scoffed at their dissuasion.
After speaking, he rode his horse leisurely, humming a little song, and slowly walked down the northern foot of Zipeng Mountain.
Everyone had no choice but to follow Sun Quan down the mountain.
Gan Ning and the others did not dare to slack off, and scattered ten scout knights far away from the surrounding area, observing the situation and being on high alert.
However, all this was seen by two pairs of mysterious eyes in the depths of the dense forest, and then one pair of eyes disappeared, leaving the other pair of eyes to continue to closely observe Sun Quan's every move.
In Hefei City, Zhang Liaozheng, Yu Ban, Zang Ba, Zhang Xi, Jiang Ji, Liu Tong, Chen Lan, Mei Cheng, and other cadres sat on the command chairs in the school field, observed the commanders and soldiers practicing formation tactics, and discussed matters concerning dealing with the Jiangdong Army.
According to the scout's report, Jiangdong Sun Quan personally led 60,000 sailors, known as 100,000, advancing by land and water, the momentum was huge, Hefei was shaken, and the people were frightened. Unexpectedly, Sun Quan turned out to be elite, and his momentum was difficult. Zhang Xi said with a worried face.
"Generals, tell me how we should deal with it." Zhang Liao sat on the tiger skin chair, motionless as a mountain, squinting and contemplative, and asked with a serious expression.
"Hefei is located in the center of the Jianghuai River, is the main point of the north-south water and land trunk line, the intersection of the four roads, extends in all directions, belongs to the "key location", the art of war is called 'Qudi', has a high military value. This is a battleground for soldiers. At the beginning, the prime minister appointed Liu Fu as the assassin of Yangzhou, and chose this place to build a strong city, which was really a unique vision, far-sighted, and far-sighted. It is foreseeable that in the future, this strategic pivot will certainly become a place where both sides will do their best to fiercely contend. Yu Ban sighed.
"Now Sun Quan is attacking with great fanfare, on the surface he hates our army's attack on Jiangdong County, Chen Mei returns to Cao, the concubine was robbed, and the army is revenge, but in fact, Xiang Zhuang is dancing the sword with the intention of Pei Gong, and its goal is to capture Hefei and open up the passage of the Northern Expedition, and his ambition is not small!" Jiang Ji touched his beard and sighed.
"The Jiangdong led by Sun Quan is vast and sparsely populated, and the standing army is only 150,000 or 60,000, three of which have become the private troops of the generals of the family, and they also have to divide troops and send troops to various counties to suppress the various tribes in Shanyue who often rebel. Therefore, he is pouring all the troops of Jiangdong, and he can bring fifty or sixty thousand. They have come from afar, and they have traveled a long way, and they must be exhausted, and their combat strength will be reduced by thirty percent. The 30,000 brought by the LΓΌ Meng army were wiped out by our army by five or six thousand, and the morale was extremely low, and he had no intention of fighting again, so there was nothing to worry about. It can be inferred from this that Sun Quanjun's recent combat strength is actually only 60,000 or 70,000. And we rely on the fortified city, and the surrounding counties and counties rush to help, plus the 30,000 reinforcements brought by Cao Hong and Zhang Xiu will arrive tomorrow. Sun Quan will definitely not do anything in the future. Zang Ba said thoughtfully.
Zhang Liao thoughtfully, nodded frequently, looked at Liu Tong, and said: "Zhong Yi, what the generals said, I strongly agree. What do you do? β
Liu Tong dared to be surprised, he didn't expect that Zhang Liao would ask him for the opinion of a general, he stood up, his face flushed, a little embarrassed, and he stopped talking.
Zhang Liao gently encouraged: "Zhong Yi, don't be nervous, speak slowly." β
"What the generals said was thoughtful and far-sighted, and I benefited a lot. As everyone said, this time Sun Quan is determined to win Hefei, and he will gather a large army to come, and he will attack it at any cost. Our army took advantage of this to hold the city with the original troops of Hefei, and to absorb Sun Quan's main force with Hefei, consume its vital strength, and once again make it fall under the wall. With Cao Hong's army constantly harassing his battalion on the periphery and mobilizing the water division to cooperate, Zhang Xiujun gave full play to the characteristics of cavalry mobility and speed, sweeping and sneaking up on Chaoxian, Juchao, and Weixuwu in the rear of Jiangdong, so that Sun Quan could not take care of each other. When its combat strength is exhausted, exhausted, the morale of the army is weakened, and the lineup is not in order, it can be besieged and attacked. After stabilizing his mind, Liu Tong was confident and talked eloquently.
When everyone heard this, they were amazed, and the look of approval jumped on their faces, and they couldn't imagine that this young general who was twenty years old would have such insight.
"Wen Yuan, Zhong Yi has such a strategy at such a young age, and can come up with such a good strategy. This plan is both offensive and defensive, and the plan is appropriate, which will definitely make Sun Quan anxious, take care of one and lose the other, and return defeated. Yu Ban looked at Liu Tong and said with great satisfaction.
"General Yu has won the award, I just summarized the thoughts of the generals, the class has an axe, please forgive me." Liu Tong bowed and waved his hands and said humbly.
Liu Tong secretly said in his heart, the little lord's plan is really powerful, I think that Xiahou Yuan was defeated by this plan, and I didn't expect that this battle could be repeated. It turned out that Liu Chan had already told Liu Tong about the situation of the battle of Dangyang through the flying pigeon, and asked him to act according to the plan and draw the gourd as usual.
Zhang Liao nodded in approval, showed an expression of appreciation, and said with a smile: "Zhong Yi, to have such a strategy at your age is rare and commendable. However, don't be complacent. β
After Zhang Liao glanced around at everyone, he looked at Liu Tong and admonished: "All the adults here are all meritorious generals, Wen Tao's martial arts are outstanding, and his martial arts are outstanding. Thou shalt not be complacent, but be modest and prudent, and ask them for advice at random in the future. In this way, in time, he will become a generation of famous generals. Remember! Remember! β
Liu Tong is overjoyed, isn't this clearly about focusing on cultivating and cultivating me! He quickly knelt down and kowtowed to Zhang Liao and the others to thank him: "Liu Tong thanked General Zhang and the generals for their cultivation, please do not hesitate to give advice." I will fight bravely to kill the enemy, protect the family and defend the country, and make contributions to the imperial court. β
"Well said, well said! Hurry up, please. Zhang Liao, Yu Ban and others were all smiling, and it could be seen that they were very satisfied with this polite, modest and studious young talent.
At this time, a man in Tsing Yi dressed as a woodcutter appeared on the side of the school field, looking nervous, and beckoned to Liu Tong in a low voice, and Liu Tong hurriedly trotted over.
"Wang Shan, what's the situation?" Liu Tong said hurriedly. Wang Shan is the son of Wang Lian, the deputy governor of the Black Dragon Battalion of the Jingzhou Army and the lieutenant of the Tun Cavalry, who previously took the initiative to ask Liu Chan for help and followed Liu Tong to lurk in Cao Ying.
"Zhong Yi, Sun Quan appeared at the northern foot of Zipeng Mountain." Wang Shan couldn't hide his excitement and reported excitedly.
"Really? Do you see clearly? Liu Tong asked excitedly.
"It's true, they only have thirty-seven horsemen!" Wang Shan's face was serious.
Liu Tong groaned slightly, and advised: "In this way, you go back first, continue to monitor with Xiang Tiao, and don't startle the snake." We'll be there. β
"Okay, you have to hurry." Wang Shan said a word, flew on the horse, and walked away.
"General, that man in Tsing Yi is my scout Wang Shan, and I asked them to disguise themselves as woodcutters and go to Zipeng Mountain to reconnoiter the enemy. No, they inadvertently get a great piece of good news! Liu Tong trotted over and reported to Zhang Liao.
"What's the situation? Say it! Zhang Liao suddenly became interested and asked eagerly.
"Sun Quan took more than 30 horses and came to the northern foot of Zipeng Mountain." Liu Tongyu reports.
"Really!" Zhang Liao shook Liu Tong's shoulders excitedly and said excitedly.
"It's true! No lie! Liu Tongdao.
Zhang Liao looked up to the sky excitedly and sighed: "God help me!" This is called stepping on iron shoes and finding nowhere to go, and it takes no effort to get it! β
Zhang Liao turned around, his expression quickly became serious, and his face was like sinking water: "Gentlemen, we are deeply favored by the prime minister, and we often think about repaying it, especially in the Battle of Chibi, tens of thousands of soldiers of our army died at the hands of blue-eyed thieves. When I went to bed at night, whenever I thought of the heroic souls of my comrades-in-arms who had burned through the red cliffs and stained the sky red, and died tragically, they often appeared in my dreams, making me so painful that I would burn all my organs, and I swore to avenge them! Now that Sun Quan has sent it to the door, this is the best time, if this thief can be successfully captured, the Jiangdong army will be leaderless and become a vulnerable rabble, we will take the opportunity to defeat them, and then ask the prime minister to lead the army to the south. At that time, our army will sweep through the south of the Yangtze River and wipe out the rebels in Jiangdong in one fell swoop! Serve quickly! β
Zhang Liao put the wine in the wind, his god was majestic, his tiger eyes flashed, and he said murderously: "Don't miss the opportunity, you won't come again." I decided to personally go out and lead a hundred elite iron horsemen to capture Sun Quan! Xuan Highway went to point the soldiers and horses, Sun Guan, Chen Lan, Mei Cheng, and Liu Tong went out with me to start the blue-eyed wolf hunting operation! β
