Chapter 632: Straight Attack on Shouchun
In the camp, the soldiers are resting, inspecting their horses and weapons, ready to fight at any time.
In the meeting hall, Zhang Liao sat at the top, and in addition to Huang Zhong, Xu Chu and Yang Han below, Jiang Qi also rushed over from Gepi.
Zhang Liao knew that Zang Ba was under a lot of pressure and time was pressing, so he didn't say much polite words, and directly ordered: "Yuan Shu has a total of 200,000 soldiers and horses, and now 120,000 are transferred to Chen State, of which 40,000 attack Chen Liu, 60,000 attack Yingchuan, and 20,000 sit in Chen State. ”
Zhang Liao compared on the military topographic map: "We have two goals, Runan and Shouchun!" Soldiers act in three ways! ”
Zhang Liao said and looked at Jiang Qi: "Yiqu, Runan is Yuan Shu's lair, not inferior to Shouchun, the attached family is innumerable, you have been in Runan for a long time, familiar with the terrain, Runan handed over to you, and ordered Gong Du, He Man, and He Yi to go to the west, south, and north to capture the counties, attack the stubborn and domineering Haoqiang Fort, let Runan lose control, and transfer out the 10,000 defenders of Pingyu, and then you led the headquarters to attack Pingyu. ”
Zhang Liao looked at Yang Han again: "Zhong Fang, you take 10,000 soldiers and horses, first attack Pingyu with Yiqu, eliminate the 10,000 soldiers and horses left by Yuan Shu to defend Runan, and then you and the two of you divide their troops to the east, watch each other, ambush in the main road from Chen Guo to Shouchun, wait for the fighters, do not wait for work, do not fall in love with war." ”
Seeing the two of them receiving orders, Zhang Liao looked at Huang Zhong and Xu Chu again: "Han Sheng, Zhong Kang, and you will raid Shouchun with me!" ”
Huang Zhong and Xu Chu were inspired.
Jiang Qi hurriedly said: "Lord, thirty thunderbolts and twenty crossbows have been hidden at the junction of Yingshui and Huaihe, and when the lord's troops arrive, the boat will go downstream, and you can reach Shouchun in half a day." ”
Half a year ago, Sun Ce betrayed Yuan Shu, and Sun Xiang, the Taishou of Runan, was transferred back to Shouchun, and the situation in Runan was chaotic, Jiang Qi and Yang Han took advantage of the chaos to transport the thunderbolt and crossbow through the Huai River to a cottage near Shouchun, ready for Zhang Liao to attack Shouchun.
In order to achieve a quick victory in a war, it is necessary to make all preparations before the war, and everything is ready for a blow!
"Excellent! Act fast! I have sent a message to Lu Fengxian to send troops from Xuzhou to deal with the war. ”
Zhang Liao gave the final order.
On the same day, Jiang Qi returned to Gepi and summoned three Yellow Turban Qu Shuai overnight, and the next day, the Runan Yellow Turban held a big movement.
At the same time, Zhang Liao took Huang Zhong and Xu Chu and led 20,000 soldiers and horses to Shouchun in two ways, one led by Huang Zhong and down the Huai River, and one led by Zhang Liao and Xu Chu, fast horses.
The two soldiers and horses were hung with the Yuan flag, and there were people who saw these two soldiers and horses along the way, but they thought that Yuan Shu had mobilized the soldiers and horses, but they didn't care, and no one expected that Zhang Liao's soldiers and horses would appear in the hinterland of Yuan Shu.
Two days later, Zhang Liao and Xu Chu arrived at the border of Yangzhou and the junction of Yingshui and Huai River.
At this point, he had reached the territory of Jiujiang, Zhang Liao no longer hid his tracks, Huang Zhong continued to take the waterway, and Zhang Liao led his troops to march along the river by land.
At this time, Yuan Shu's soldiers and horses who stayed in Jiujiang noticed the abnormality, but it was too late, and a day later, Zhang Liao's 20,000 soldiers and horses had already camped outside Shouchun City and launched a fierce attack on Shouchun.
……
Chen Guo, Chen Wangfu, at this time, Yuan Shu, the son of the Zhong family, was already furious, and scolded: "Incompetent! Vulgar generals! 60,000 soldiers and horses can't destroy just one Zangba, and they are angry! I want to drive the expedition myself! Let's see how these generals fight! ”
"Your Majesty, never!"
Changshi Yang Hong saw that Yuan Shu initiated sex, and couldn't help but hurriedly dissuade him.
Now the war of Chen Liu is still stalemate, the war of Yingchuan is still inseparable, Yuan Shu's soldiers and horses occupy several times the advantage, but Zang Ba is brave and unmatched, his command Sun Guan, Yin Li, Sun Kang are all fierce generals, fierce soldiers, flexible tactics, several generals of Yuan Shu have suffered repeatedly, Liu Shen and Le were killed, Chen Lan and Lei Bo fled.
Yuan Shu suffered a loss under Zhang Liao, and even his generals couldn't beat Zhang Liao's generals, which made Yuan Shu feel ashamed and humiliated, and his temper became more and more irritable.
Dissuaded by the courtiers on the left and right, Yuan Shu hurriedly wandered back and forth for four or five years, and roared angrily: "Mobilize troops!" From Shouchun, Lu Mian was transferred, and he led 10,000 soldiers and horses, and then transferred 10,000 soldiers and horses from Runan, and I want to use soldiers and horses to trap this Zang Ba! Destroy Cao Cao again and attack Luoyang directly! ”
Yuan Shao has four fierce generals, Ji Ling, Zhang Xun, Lu Mian, Qiao Rui, now Qiao Rui is on the front line, Ji Ling is in the right wing of Peiguo to prevent Lu Bu, Zhang Xun and Lu Mian stayed in Shouchun, this time Qiao Rui can not fight Zang Ba, Yuan Shu wants to transfer Lu Mian.
Yan Xiang hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, there is Sun Ce in Jiangdong and Lu Bu in Xuzhou who is capricious, so you can't transfer troops from Shouchun anymore." ”
"Your Majesty has not forgotten," Changshi Yang Hong also said: "Xuzhou Lu Butun soldiers on the border, eyeing the tiger, yesterday there was news in Runan, the Yellow Turban was in turmoil, raiding the counties, and there was no way to transfer troops. ”
Yuan Shu was even angrier and scolded: "Incompetent! Yellow scarves should be punished! This time, the soldiers will kill all the Yellow Turban thieves, so as to eliminate the hatred in my heart! Lu Bu villain, villain! I'm going to break your body to pieces! ”
A few days ago, he was still unstoppable, but now it seems that there are problems everywhere all of a sudden, which makes Yuan Shu anxious and angry.
At this moment, a person hurriedly came in: "Your Majesty, it's not a good thing!" Zhang Liao has attacked Shouchun! ”
Brush! The eyes of everyone in the hall stared at the herald in unison, their eyes were full of disbelief, and they only thought that they had heard it wrong, Zhang Liao attacked Shouchun? How can it be!
Yuan Shu stepped forward in two steps, picked up the herald, his forehead was bruised, and he said sharply: "You dare to deceive!" ”
The herald hurriedly said: "The villain doesn't dare, if the news really came from Shouchun, Zhang Liao went straight down the Huai River and attacked Shouchun, with no less than 20,000 soldiers and horses!" There are also catapults, and I am afraid that Shouchun will be difficult to support for a long time. ”
Bang!
Yuan Shu threw the herald to the ground, his eyes were red, he kicked over the table, and said loudly: "How could Zhang Liao appear in Shouchun?" How could Zhang Liao appear in Shouchun! Didn't he fight with Ma Teng and Han Sui in Guanzhong? How could he appear in Shouchun! Yes! Yes! ”
Yuan Shu drew his sword and slashed wildly at the table.
Everyone in the hall was panicked, Shouchun is the capital of Yuan Shu, their families are there, if Shouchun is broken, then Yuan Shu will be homeless.
"Your Majesty!" Yan Xiang hurriedly said: "This time it must have been Zhang Liaosheng's plan to attack the west, he pretended to enter Guanzhong, but in fact he secretly lurked in Shouchun." ”
Yuan Shu suddenly turned his head and stared at Yan Xiang deadly: "You tell me, how did tens of thousands of soldiers and horses sneak into Shouchun?" The county officials are all wine bags and rice bags! ”
Yan Xiang was speechless, he couldn't guess how Zhang Liao's tens of thousands of soldiers and horses arrived in Shouchun quietly, but he didn't know that Zhang Liao had already begun to plan this battle at the beginning of Yuan Shu's reign as emperor, and the early preparations were several years ago.
Yang Hong hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, it is imperative to return to Shishouchun as soon as possible, otherwise the big thing will be bad and the country will be in danger!" ”
Yes!
Yuan Shu screamed, and stabbed the herald to death with a sword, and the blood splashed on his face, looking extremely hideous, and frightened everyone in the hall couldn't help but retreat.
"Retreat!"
Yuan Shu gasped, clenched his fists and gave the order.
