Chapter 222: The Sky Is Not Dead, the Yellow Sky Destroys First—12
On the periphery of the Changshe in the Yellow Turban Army, I didn't know that Suning had such thoughts, for them, this victory was already in their pockets. The Huangfu Song people in the city, no matter how much they jumped, could not jump over their encirclement like frogs.
Bo Cai didn't know at this time that the mentality of the soldiers had quietly changed, in the previous two battles, most of his subordinates were cautious, and they did it strictly according to his requirements, which led to the classic victory of defeating Zhu Jun and successfully besieging Huangfu Song! But since Huangfu Song hung up the battle exemption card in Changshe City, Bo Cai's mind began to gradually sink, and he began to indulge in wine, and he no longer cared as much about whether the soldiers strictly carried out his orders.
Summer came step by step in such a stalemate, and he was originally going to attack Changshe City, but Changshe Cheng Gao Chishen, plus the soldiers led by Huang Fuzhong, many of them were Northland men who had fought with the Xianbei people, and their combat effectiveness should not be underestimated. Bocai's first few attempts ended in failure, so he no longer forced his men, so he simply surrounded the city, and as long as he did not let go of an enemy soldier, he could wait until the day when they ran out of food and grass and surrendered.
It's just that he didn't expect that the other party's grain and grass have been exhausted, it is still unknown, and the grain and grass of the Yellow Turban Army he has mastered have been in crisis several times, and the main problem is that the cavalry he has personally formed lacks enough forage, and most of the Yellow Turban Army are hungry people, at least landless peasants, they have suffered from hunger and cold, and every time they achieve a victory, they need to be given food to boost morale, otherwise, this battle is like a vain battle.
At the very beginning, Bocai had a very good grasp of their mentality, almost every victory, or every time he walked on the road to victory, he would order his prime minister to distribute some food to those refugees, but this time, because he besieged Changshe City for a long time, resulting in a long time without fighting, although those refugees could receive a ration of rice every day, but they hoped to exchange the fruits of victory for more generous rewards. However, such emotions were not expressed too violently, because for this group of people who are accustomed to hunger and cold, having food is already a very good life.
Therefore, when this emotion spread among them, not only Bocai, but even his subordinates, did not notice this, and so, things found their uncontrollable side developing.
More and more people began to disobey Bocai's requirements, not knowing the formation that should be there, and the low-level leaders of the middle and middle levels began to take their followers to search for the countryside and the land that had been abandoned by the war, and they wanted to return to the old era of land cultivation. At the same time, the generals of the cavalry regiments, because they could not get the supply of grain and grass for a long time, could only find the surrounding places with abundant pasture and set up camp, otherwise, those refugees who desperately wanted to get farmland would definitely reclaim these places with rich pasture as wasteland and use them as their farmland.
If that's the case, then they can only use two legs to fight with the Han army for the ownership of Yingchuan County like those refugees, and the two people they are facing, one is the former Beidi County Taishou, and the other is the former Wuwei County Taishao, they are all fighting hard battles with the Xianbei cavalry in Liangzhou, and their command of the cavalry has more experience and courage than ordinary people, if they don't have enough strength, then they can only suffer defeat in front of them, as for those refugees, Who would expect them to bring a military victory? It's okay for them to fight a tailwind, but if they are allowed to resist a tough enemy, then their chances of winning are far less likely than the chances of betraying Bocai.
So, in this context, the Yellow Turban Army besieging Huang Fu Song and others has already left their original defense areas, and the original tight and staggered formation has now become loose, if Huang Fu Song really makes up his mind, with his men who dare to fight the Northland warriors, this Yellow Turban Army can be completely beaten into two hundred and five that cannot be found in the east, west, north and south.
But Huangfu Song is obviously not ready to do that, because the group of people in his hands are all old brothers who have followed him to the battlefield, and he is not willing to easily let these people sacrifice on the plains of Yuzhou, not to mention that in the future battles, she still needs to count on these people, if they are allowed to fight on the plains of Yuzhou, then who should evaluate the Yellow Turban Army in other places?
So Huangfu Song thought of a strategy, he felt that this strategy was especially effective in the hot summer, but he was not sure if this one would work, so he found Suning, an expert in this area, to discuss, and as a result, Suning prepared a very heavy gift for him.
"I know what you're going to do, so yesterday, I sent someone to sneak out of Changshe City secretly, and found a subordinate who followed me, these things from them, don't be too little, after all, I am a guest army, and the amount of grain and grass I originally carried is not enough, not to mention these non-essential war tools, although they are very powerful, but because of this, I am not prepared to let them shine under the emperor's nose, otherwise, I may be regarded as the number one threat to his throne by that superfluous guy, I hope you understand that. ”
Of course, Huangfu Song can understand, after all, a companion is like a tiger, but he wants to know what these gifts from Suning are?
"Wet water." Suning's simple answer reminded Huangfu Song of the past for many years, when the Xianbei cavalry invaded Liangzhou, Suning relied on this thing to fight a classic victory of 600 and 30,000. Later, this thing appeared on the battlefield many times, especially not long ago, the battle that defeated the kingdom outside his industrial park made this thing famous in Liangzhou.
Unexpectedly, today, his Huangfu Song's plan can also use this kind of magical thing, then again, she was originally going to take advantage of the hot weather to wait until the grass and trees are drier before she starts to act! However, with the help of this thing, he felt that he didn't need to wait so long to start a surprise attack on the Yellow Turban Army that surrounded them, if this breakthrough went well, then Bo Cai and his Yellow Turban thieves would probably suffer a big loss, because he knew that although Suning was fleeing all the way, the main force under his command was still staying in the border area of Yinchuan residents, as long as there was a disturbance here, they would definitely attack immediately. When the time comes, the chaotic Yellow Turban Army will definitely take care of one or the other, and the end of the fiasco is almost inevitable!
