Chapter 335: Luring the Enemy
In Jizhou, three soldiers and horses quickly rushed towards Zhang Yu and them.
One Yan Liang has 15,000 horses, one Wen Chou has 15,000 horses, and the other road is Gao Ran with 20,000 horses.
The three armies and horses advanced rapidly, separated by dozens of miles, and marched in unison.
Zhang Yu received the information and said, "Zilong, how about we go to your hometown for a walk?" ”
"Oh, lord, aren't you going to Yecheng? My house and Yecheng are in two directions. Zhao Yun asked suspiciously.
Zhang Yu said: "Yuan Shao's three roads rushed over, we have to give him face, and we have to run away in a panic, which is logical, so we fled westward, and entered Changshan County to the west, which happened to be not far from Changshan Zhending." ”
"I'm afraid of a bird, my lord, isn't it 50,000 horses, we attack I all the way, abolish them, Jizhou we can go wherever we want." Dian Wei said unhappily.
Not to mention, Dian Wei's method is also possible, but the enemy has 50,000 horses, and the three roads are not far apart.
Zhang Yu and the others are going to attack one way, and the other two roads will definitely bite them to the death, and there may be no other action than to escape at that time.
Zhang Yu's purpose is to disturb the entire Jizhou, not to come and leave.
Zhang Yu didn't say anything, and soon they waved their banners and headed west with great fanfare.
Their movements were too loud, and they were soon detected by the other party's spies.
A day and a half later, Yan Liang received the news.
"Hmph, you still know how to run, dare to come to our Jizhou, see where you can run." Yan Liang scolded a few times and ordered: "Accelerate forward immediately, you can't let Zhang Yu run away." ”
The adjutant general said: "General, we are advancing in three ways, Zhang Yu will definitely not dare to make any moves, if we go all the way alone, we may be ambushed by the other party." ”
"Ambush?" Yan Liang sneered and said, "I'm afraid that if they don't ambush, we have 15,000 soldiers and horses, can he eat it?" As long as they stopped, Wen Chou and Gao Ran could march quickly and then surround them, if they kept fleeing, how could we catch them. ”
Yan Liang saw that he had many troops and high combat power, so he was not afraid of Zhang Yu's ambush and insisted on pursuing.
"Go and inform Wen Chou and Gao Ran, let them speed up, and we will quickly pursue Zhang Yu." In the end, Yan Liang gave the order, and then marched quickly.
Wen Chou and Gao Ran received the news at about the same time.
Wen Chou received the news and said: "Okay, we dare to support immediately, even if Yan Liang's army is ambushed, Zhang Yu doesn't want to eat it easily, it is a good opportunity for us to surround him." ”
And Gao Ran received the news and said: "Zhang Yu fights and never suffers losses, if General Yan advances easily, I am afraid that he will suffer losses, we must speed up." ”
Wen Chou and Gao Ran accelerated no matter what their mentality was.
And Zhang Yu and the others had already entered Changshan County at this time, and they were close to the county seat.
The county seat is Yuanshou County, and it is obvious that the county guard of Changshan has received the news, and now the city gate is closed, and the soldiers are strictly guarding the city.
Although they didn't know that Zhang Yu and they had already arrived at the bottom of the city, they also knew that they had to defend well and couldn't let Zhang Yu and them sneak attack.
Zhang Yu and they arrived here two days after entering Changshan County, and at this time they were hiding in a place thirty miles outside the city.
"Lord, fight, our 20,000 soldiers and horses are attacking, and the other side only has less than 5,000 defenders, and we can fight it in a day and a half, and the Yuan army is too late."
Zhang Yu and they traveled for two days to get here, and they are a two-horse configuration, even if Yan Liang arrives, I am afraid it will take about two and a half days, Zhang Yu and they can indeed leave after beating Yuanshou County in a day and a half.
"This kind of tough battle is not interesting, although the benefits are large, but the losses are also large."
Zhang Yu did not agree to fight, once the fight started, it was indeed possible to defeat the city, but Zhang Yu estimated that he would lose more than 3,000 people.
As soon as he heard that he didn't agree to fight, Dian Wei lost his spirit, and he was biting a piece of grass on the side.
Zhang Yu looked at Dian Wei like this, a little funny, Dian Wei is a belligerent, but he listened to Zhang Yu's words very much, Zhang Yu did not agree to fight, Dian Wei would never keep yelling, but if there is a chance, Dian Wei will still propose to fight.
"According to the intelligence, Yan Liang chased after him, let's beat him, don't let him be too arrogant." Zhang Yu said.
"This is good, how can we fight, lord?" Dian Wei said with interest again.
Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun also leaned over, looked at Zhang Yu, and waited for Zhang Yu's order.
"To let Yan Liang be fooled, first of all, we have to attack Yuanshou County, let Yan Liang speed up the march, and the other part ambush him and sneak attack him." Zhang Yu said.
The strategy is simple, but it is also very effective, and it is called a reinforcement from the surrounding point.
Surrounding this point of Yuanshou County, sneaking attack on the reinforcements who rushed in, this encirclement point to help, later generations tried repeatedly when they fought the eight-year War of Resistance.
After resting for a while, and waiting for the soldiers to regain their strength, Zhang Yu ordered.
"We each take 5,000 men and horses to storm Yuanshou County, remember, the strong attack is only for half an hour, and then leave 5,000 men and horses to continue the attack, and the rest of the men and horses are ready to ambush Yan Liang." Zhang Yu ordered.
Soon, Zhang Yu and his 20,000 soldiers and horses were dispatched, which immediately alarmed Hu Feng, the county guard of Changshan County, and was taken aback, but he didn't expect that the first target of Zhang Yu's attack was Yuanshou County.
Hu Feng immediately took advantage of the fact that Zhang Yu's soldiers and horses had not yet besieged the city, and immediately sent people to ask for reinforcements.
"Attack."
After the encirclement, Zhang Yu ordered 20,000 cavalry to surround from all directions.
After that, he insisted on breaking through the air, forming an arrow array, and shrouded down towards the city.
"Ahh
"Quick, quick, hide."
"Don't you want money for Zhang Yu's arrows?"
"I'm going to die, this arrow, it's terrible."
A mess of arrows went down, and the city was in chaos.
Hu Feng was also shocked, he didn't expect Zhang Yu and the others to use such a fierce attack as soon as they came, and they didn't even attack tentatively.
In the first round of attacks, more than 300 people were killed and wounded at the head of the city.
The casualties were so great, all because there was no preparation at all.
Zhang Yu They don't follow the routine, as soon as they come, they are in the arrow array.
Withstood three rounds of arrows, and there was no counterattack from the city.
"Quick, grab all the shields, the archers are ready to fight back." Hu Feng said with a gloomy face.
The soldiers urgently carried a batch of shields from under the city, and then began to counterattack under the cover of shields.
"Keep an eye on their archers to attack, where the archers attack more." Zhang Yu saw that they began to fight back, so he ordered.
Then, Zhang Yu's arrows were very purposeful, and when they saw arrows popping up on the top of the city, they concentrated all their archers to attack there.
For a time, the archers at the head of the city were immediately unlucky, and the shield bearers did not have time to cover.
Dense barrage of arrows slanted down, and many shields were destroyed.
After a few rounds of attacking, many archers don't have the courage to stand up and attack, or they just stand up and pull their bows and arrows randomly to shoot the arrows.
