Zhang Liao came out of Xu Rong, although he was anxious, but he didn't set off immediately, he was angry at the behavior of the Kwantung princes holding Tang Wan hostage, but he knew that Tang Wan would not be in danger for a while, he had to arrange it properly, and he had to succeed in one fell swoop to rescue Tang Wan!

Moreover, the combat intention to save Tang Wan must not be exposed, it must be covered up, otherwise the relationship between him and Tang Wan will be exposed in Kanto at this time, not only Tang Wan will be dangerous, but also have endless troubles. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

In the vast majority of cases, the victory or defeat can be decided in a short period of time, and the longer it drags on, the greater the risk of failure, so the surprise operation is by no means a blind impact, otherwise it is useless to be surprised.

The key to the raid operation lies in the careful planning and layout in the early stage, to find the enemy's weakest point and make a contribution in one fell swoop!

And the most important of these is intelligence.

After returning to the barracks, Zhang Liao immediately ordered someone to summon the generals, and then wrote a secret letter, stuffed it into a bamboo pipe, summoned a person, and instructed: "Zhong Ning, quickly hand over this letter to the **** marquis, the matter is very important, and you must not be negligent." ”

"Whoa." The man accepted the letter with a solemn face and walked out quickly.

This person is a scout in the scout camp, good at raising pigeons, Zhang Liao before the arrival of the tiger prison, he ordered Yang Han to take two hundred scouts out to find out the news, all the scouts disguised as rangers around Luoyang, focusing on the two places of sour jujube and Yingchuan, and sent back information once a day.

The method of communication is the carrier pigeon domesticated by this scout, and a communication point has been established between Luoyang and Xingyang, and six carrier pigeons have been transmitted back and forth, which is extremely fast. And although carrier pigeons were used in the Western Han Dynasty, they were not popular, and ordinary people would not be guarded against, so they were extremely safe.

The scout battalion is the eyes and ears of the battle, and the news found by the scout often affects the outcome of the battle, so Zhang Liao attaches great importance to the scout battalion, although the scout battalion is only two hundred, but the status of each scout is very high, and the ordinary scout is also equivalent to the military rank of the chief in other battalions, and the leader is also the chief of the army.

The scout camp is the most important thing to train in adaptability and vigilance, and Zhang Liao even decided that in the future, all middle-level officers who want to be promoted must first experience six months of training in the scout camp.

The role of the scout battalion is reflected, yesterday Yang Han sent back the news, the princes of the sour jujube are still recruiting troops nearby, it seems that the honest but clever Yang Han and many rangers have been recruited, mixed into the sour jujube army, and the general distribution of the enemy soldiers.

Therefore, in this raid, the scout battalion is the key, whether it is to obtain intelligence or to disrupt the enemy, it is very useful.

It's just that maybe because Yang Han and the others had just entered the enemy army and didn't know about Tang Wan, Zhang Liao wanted to contact Yang Han and ask him to focus on finding out where Tang Wan was, so that it would be convenient to raid. Otherwise, it is taboo to go deep into the enemy's army without direction and goal.

And Zhang Liao remembered that in history, the Kwantung princes crusaded against Dong Zhuo, but there was the first internal strife in Sour Zao, and it was also the first mutual attack between the princes, that is, the Yanzhou assassin Liu Dai attacked and killed the Taishou Qiaomao of Dongjun, he didn't know what the specific reason was, but the two were in Yanzhou, and there must be entanglements of interests during the period.

He had already given Yang Han an order in a secret letter to investigate the dispute between Liu Dai and Qiao Mao, and at the right time, provoke a dispute between the two. Yang Han will definitely not directly contact the level of Liu Dai and Qiao Mao, but there are many ways to provoke disputes, and there are conflicts that must be followed by those who have them, as long as there are contradictions, it is easy to provoke conflicts among soldiers from the lower levels.

After the secret letter was sent, Zhang Liao was still pondering the means and details of the raid, even though his soldiers had experienced several raids and were quite experienced, but this time he was facing an army of 70,000, although with Xu Rong's coordinated operation, he was quite sure in his heart, but he must not allow the slightest carelessness, otherwise a carelessness would be the end of the entire army.

Not long after, Zhang He, Gao Shun, Zhao Wu, Song Chao, Xue Ming, Guo Cheng, Jiang Qi five fake Simas arrived, as well as Guo Tu.

Time was pressing, Zhang Liao did not make a detour, but hugged his fist at a few people, and said solemnly: "I don't hide it from all my brothers, and now my wife Tang is held hostage by the Kwantung princes in Sour Zao, and I want to use the blood book as a basis to crusade against Dong Zhuo." As a man, it is a great shame to not be able to protect his wife, this heart is hesitant, it is difficult to sit idly by, a certain is determined to raid the sour jujube to save people, I don't know if you brothers are willing to go with a certain one? ”

He paused and said earnestly: "This matter is dangerous, and it is even more out of the overall situation, if you don't want to, you just have to stay in Xingyang, you will never be reluctant, let alone complain, you still regard it as a brother!" ”

As soon as his voice fell, Gao Shun said in a deep voice: "The lord humiliates the ministers to death, the thieves in the Kanto region are so deceitful, they should be broken, what are you afraid of!" ”

Zhao Wu, Song Chao, and Xue Ming shouted angrily: "The humiliation of the captain is the humiliation of us, and I am willing to follow the captain to break the thief soldiers and savior the mother!" ”

Zhang He bowed: "This body is handed over to the captain, go to the soup and fight the fire, and I will not give up!" ”

What Zhang Liao didn't know was that after the relocation of the capital, he and his soldiers fought on the front line, and the soldiers underwent a special baptism, and the cohesion reached an unprecedented level.

At this time, seeing that all the generals were fully supporting him, he couldn't help but feel hot in his heart, and hugged his fists again: "Zhang Liao is grateful for the righteousness of the generals." Then he said in a loud voice: "In this way, just watch us break the sour dates, and the four seas will be terrified!" ”

The courage of the soldiers, Zhang Liao's brave and fearless combat style has a great impact on his subordinates, not to mention that Gao Shun and other generals are not idle people, they have great ambitions, and when they heard what Zhang Liao said, they couldn't help but be in high spirits, and said in unison: "The big sour jujube is broken, and the four seas are terrified!" ”

Guo Tu on the side saw this scene and felt a little incredible, how could he not know the danger of raiding 70,000 with 4,000, and even say that he would die for a lifetime, but these soldiers under Zhang Liao were not afraid and were willing to follow Zhang Liao to the death.

He didn't know how Zhang Liao did it, but he knew that it was impossible to do it if he was Han Fu, not only did Han Fu not have the courage to do it, but his subordinates would not follow him to do it. If you change to Yuan Shao, I'm afraid there will be many people who oppose it.

Although Guo Tu disagreed with Zhang Liao's behavior, he still admired his courage, and he had fallen under Zhang Liao's hands for several months, but he had seen Zhang Liao's methods and knew that he was by no means a reckless person, and this trip must have a plan. So he didn't refute either, and with his character, he would only obey the lord and not force it, so it might be said that it was useless for him to refute at this time.

Since the military heart has been unified, Zhang Liao began to lay out, first of all, he ordered each battalion to pretend to be a rout, with the battalion as a large unit and the tun as a small unit, scattering and sneaking to the southwest of the sour jujube, even if it is camouflaged, try to rest during the day, march at night, disperse during the day, gather at night, and wrap the horseshoe.

The second is to mess with the enemy, Zhang Liao mentioned the matter of sending Yang Han to infiltrate the sour jujube to mess with the enemy, so that the generals couldn't help but respect his precautions, and even Guo Tu secretly praised that as long as he could mess with the enemy, the chance of a surprise attack would be more than doubled.

Finally, with the cooperation of Xu Rongjun, Zhang Liao instructed the generals to take some details, and when he ordered the generals to start acting, let the soldiers have a full meal, prepare dry food, and set off tonight.

After the generals left, Zhang Liao left Guo Tu and said: "Gong Zhi, this battle is dangerous, you will stay in Xingyang, but I don't know what else you have for this raid?" (To be continued.) )
