Chapter 955: Temptation (Page 1/1)
Huang Gai and Jiang Qin each led 50,000 soldiers and horses to attack, while Zhou Tai and Han Dang defended the city.
100,000 soldiers and horses slaughtered Hefei City and Chaoxian County, but Jiangdong's soldiers and horses didn't seem to have any reaction, and still continued to attack the previous route.
Another day passed, and Jiangdong's soldiers and horses had already attacked outside the county seat of Lujiang County.
There is not much force to block the road, and the entire support point is the county seat of Lujiang County.
100,000 soldiers and horses surrounded the county town of Lujiang County, but the defender Zhu Zhi was not very worried, although the enemy army was fierce, but this Lujiang County was already very strong after Sun Ce's management, and there was no more grain and grass in it.
This place is close to Poyang Lake, and a lot of grain and grass are stored in this Lujiang County, so the surrounding cities here don't have to worry about grain and grass.
Zhu Zhi made a tour of the city.
"What is Zhang Yu going to do? Fighting on two fronts? ”
Zhu Zhi didn't understand, and it was difficult for him to judge whether Zhang Yu was here to scare people or really want to attack.
Things in the north are very troublesome, Zhang Yu set up a cabinet, taking Beiping as the center of gravity, and everyone thinks that Zhang Yu will consolidate the north.
However, Zhang Yu still did something they didn't expect.
Zhu Zhi looked at the enemy troops outside the city, and then checked the city defenses again.
The young general guarding the city carefully accompanied him.
"Don't worry, the armies of Lu'an City and Shouchun City won't make any moves, as long as the two cities are there, there will be no major incidents in our Lujiang County." After speaking, Zhu Zhi patted the young general's shoulder, and then left.
It's true that Zhu Zhi is not worried, he is still very calm now, even if Jiangdong really wants to attack, it is not something they can attack if they want to.
On Ling Cao's side, his movements were also very fast, and it took him one night to capture Wuwei City.
It was only a small city, with only a few thousand defenders, and it was quickly attacked.
This city has always been too close to Chao County, so Sun Ce did not deploy heavy troops here.
A large city can defend against the enemy army by arranging heavy troops, while a small city can only deliver food to the enemy.
After Ling Cao attacked this small city, he sent some soldiers and horses to continue to the next city, but he and Guo Jia did not immediately go south, but immediately blocked the Yangtze River.
"Military division, at the beginning, we had tens of thousands of troops, and a few junior generals slaughtered Fusang's army for thousands of miles, and now we are fighting with Fusang's army, is it really useful?"
Ling Cao was very distrustful of Fusang's army, and he came to the riverside this time to blockade the Yangtze River in order to receive Fusang's 100,000 soldiers and horses.
This Ling Cao had not personally participated in the battle against Fusang, so he did not know the characteristics of the Fusang army.
Guo Jia said with a smile: "The lord's arrangement is naturally profound, and General Ling will use it boldly when the time comes." ”
When the two of them arrived at the river, the other side of the Yangtze River was ready, and as soon as the signal was issued here, the other side began to cross the river.
Jiangdong has mobilized a large number of large and small ships.
During this period of time, there are fleets at both ends of the Yangtze River on a mission to temporarily intercept passing merchant ships.
The army crossed the river slowly, but not very quickly, and it was expected that it would be possible to cross it all at night.
"Strategist, it is expected that Lu'an City and Shouchun City have already moved, should we also speed up?" Ling Cao asked.
Guo Jia looked at the waves of the river, listened to the sound of the water and said: "This Huang Gai is an experienced veteran, he will definitely be cautious, my army will not be able to pay a certain price." ”
The two chatted and watched the army cross the river, and in the second half of the night, Guo Jia was tired, so he went to rest first.
Ling Cao didn't have a good impression at all when he looked at these very short and stocky Fusang troops.
"Can such an army fight well?"
Ling Cao was suspicious, he could see that this army had not been trained for a long time, the queue was not neat, and there was not enough spirit.
But thinking that this is just for consumption, I don't care so much.
The army continued to cross the river, and Ling Cao finally went back to rest.
It is said that Huang Gai and Jiang Qin have already killed outside Hefei with soldiers and horses.
The two first jointly attacked Hefei City.
100,000 soldiers and horses besieged the city.
All kinds of siege equipment were also brought by the rear army.
The two met under the city, and Jiang Qin said: "Old general, we should storm for a while, otherwise we will not be able to test the reality in the city at all." ”
Huang Gai was silent for a long time and then said, "I'm afraid we will have to storm from all sides for a day before we can test it out. ”
It is not easy to test the reality of Jiangdong's soldiers and horses, because even if they are short of troops, they will fight to the death.
Jiang Qin was silent, this price will not be small.
The two surrounded the city, and from the outside, it didn't seem that much had changed inside the city.
Generally, if you want to set up a suspicious formation, you will even pretend to plant a lot of military flags.
Usually a military flag represents a soldier and horse, but in the real war, Jiangdong soldiers and horses rarely use military flags.
The military flag is a symbol, the spirit of the soldiers, but Koto doesn't seem to need it.
The military flag can command the soldiers, the military flag can unite the soldiers' morale, and so on.
The two waited until dawn.
After daybreak, the divisions of the two armies were under the four walls and then prepared to attack.
Once the army had assembled, it was ready to attack.
"Kill."
"Attack."
Huang Gai and Jiang Qin respectively commanded two armies to launch a fierce attack.
The onslaught began, and at first there was nothing strange about it, they stormed the walls, and the enemy counterattacked.
There was nothing special about the process, and the army on the city walls was not particularly violent, but it did not allow them to attack easily.
Half an hour later, nothing has changed.
Huang Gai commanded and patrolled back and forth, trying to see the flaws in the city, but the rhythm of the army in the city did not change.
"Kill."
"Shoot the arrows."
"Arrows."
"Don't give the enemy a chance to retreat."
Suddenly, a large number of archers appeared in the city, some of them attacking directly on the battlements, and some of them forming an arrow formation in the rear.
There were at least 20,000 soldiers in the city, and they formed a sharp arrow array and slaughtered the attacking army.
At this time, many people doubted whether they would have arranged more troops if it were not for the limited location at the head of the city.
Arrows flew wildly, and a large number of arrows slanted down towards them.
The attacking team was immediately stunned, and I don't know how many people died under this arrow array.
The team in the middle was directly disconnected, leaving the attacking army without support.
The soldiers who were climbing the city wall noticed that something was wrong and wanted to retreat, but in the process of retreating, they were hit by arrows, and not many could run back.
"Is there really a heavy army in this city?" Huang Gai said suspiciously.
The two hurriedly withdrew their troops, but this time their losses amounted to thousands.
It's not that they are defenseless, but they let the army storm, and the defense is naturally much less.
