Chapter 193: Ye Chen wants to attack the city
"Big brother, the Han army sent reinforcements over, and it was Huangfu Song who came." Zhang Bao said to Zhang Jiao on the sickbed.
"Ahem, cough, cough"
After a cough, Zhang Jiaoqiang held his sick body and said: "Huangfu Song is our old enemy, this person is not easy to deal with, we must not take it lightly, now I am seriously ill and not suitable to appear in front of everyone, and the career of the Yellow Turban depends on the two younger brothers." ”
"Ahem, cough, cough"
Before he finished speaking, Zhang Jiao coughed again, and it seemed that he was indeed very sick.
"Big brother, don't worry, my second brother and I will definitely do a good job in the yellow scarf."
"Huangfu Song is not easy to deal with, you must be careful to defend, not to attack easily, and if it is possible, you must deal with Ye Chen's cavalry, I have a hunch, he will be the enemy of our Yellow Turban, and our Yellow Turban's several failures before are related to this person." Zhang Jiao said weakly.
Zhang Jiao began to gasp after speaking, obviously extremely weak, and had no way to continue to explain, Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang had to arrange for Zhang Jiao to lie down and rest.
Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang were in a heavy mood after going out, the situation was originally very good, but because Zhang Jiao was seriously ill, they had to stop the pace of attack, so that the Han army could breathe, and now the Han army reinforcements arrived, and the siege was re-sieged, which was very bad for them.
In the Han army camp, Huangfu Song summoned Ye Chen alone, and the two of them should communicate well.
"General Jianwei, it is not easy for you to reorganize the already scattered men and horses in a short period of time. This is also a great achievement, if we can't integrate these more than 30,000 officers and soldiers, I'm afraid we won't be able to attack the Yellow Turbans. Huangfu Song said with a little emotion.
If Huangfu Song wanted to reintegrate these Han armies in just a few days, he really couldn't do better than Ye Chen.
"General Huangfu, although these horses have been integrated, their morale has not yet recovered, and if they want to play a role, it will be difficult in a short time." Ye Chen said.
"Hmm" Huangfu Song nodded and said, "General Jianwei, I don't know what you think about the next battle.
”
"General Huangfu, I think we should continue to attack the Yellow Turbans, the Yellow Turbans are stuck here, there must be something wrong inside, only an attack can expose the problem." Of course, Ye Chen knew that Zhang Jiao was critically ill, but he was not easy to say at this time.
"Well, we do have to continue to attack, now the imperial court and even the entire Han Dynasty are panicked, and only by attacking can we calm people's hearts, so our task is very heavy." Huangfu Song sighed and said.
Ye Chen was stunned, Huangfu Song is Huangfu Song, the last loyal and capable minister of the Han Dynasty, and the consideration of problems is from the perspective of the whole country.
"General Jianwei, I don't know what your plans are in the short term."
"General Huangfu, launch a siege battle within three days of the next plan, achieve a victory, and reverse the morale of our army, so that we can consume the Yellow Turbans, otherwise even if we attack day and night, it will be difficult to achieve results in the short term." Ye Chen said solemnly.
"Alas, I didn't know that our army needed a victory, but how could it be so easy, looking at all the departments of our army, it was not easy to achieve a victory in a short period of time, even if it was a small victory."
Huangfu Song knew very well that the siege war was a protracted war, and attacking day and night for half a month might not be effective, so it was not easy to win the battle in the short term.
"General Huangfu, the army under you is willing to assume this responsibility, and our troops will attack a city wall, and they will definitely win the first victory and boost the morale of our army."
Huangfu Song was surprised when he heard Ye Chen's words: "Really? But you're a cavalryman? Could it be that General Ye wants to let the cavalry dismount and attack the city? ”
"General Huangfu doesn't have to worry, since he proposed it, he will definitely be able to do it, but he still needs General Huangfu to send an elite army to assist." Of course, Ye Chen would not let the cavalry dismount and attack the city, but this did not mean that they would not be able to attack the city.
Huangfu Song was even more puzzled, but Ye Chen had already said that it was a point, but he could only agree.
After the matter was decided, two more days later, the Han army began to form a group and prepare for the attack.
"Second brother, it looks like the Han army is about to attack."
"Hmph, what if they attack, Lu Zhi couldn't attack it before, Dong Zhuo couldn't attack it later, and now Huangfu Song can't attack it." Zhang Bao snorted coldly and said.
"Second brother, now that the eldest brother is seriously ill, I think our brothers can stop this matter, so don't let the eldest brother worry about it." Zhang Liang looked at the Han army below who was slowly pressing towards the city wall and said.
"Well, there is nothing to worry about the attack of these Han troops, the eldest brother is our pillar, as long as the eldest brother is in one day, then the Han army will not want to attack the city."
While the two were talking, the Han army had already arrived at the city and set up a position.
The formation of the Han army is very interesting, Dong Zhuo led an army on a city wall, and Huangfu Song's men and horses were divided into several parts, one was a single city wall, one part of the two men and horses were allocated to Ye Chen, and most of the other was led by the deputy general Zongyuan, preparing to attack a city wall.
The last city wall was in charge of Ye Chen, Ye Chen put more than 30,000 reorganized defeated troops at the end, and the front was Ye Chen's guard battalion, the back was Huang Fu Song's two elite soldiers, and the next was Cao Cao's cavalry, and Huang Fu Song was also there to watch the battle.
Speaking of Cao Cao, he was not originally assigned here, Huangfu Song intended to let him lead people to attack a city wall, but he insisted on coming to watch Ye Chen attack the city, Huangfu Song thought that Cao Cao was also a cavalry, so let him see how Ye Chen attacked.
And Liu Bei, another hero in the late Han Dynasty, he was assigned to another wall of the Han army for feints, he always wanted to see Huangfu Song, and asked Huangfu Song to arrange tasks for him, but in the past few days, Huangfu Song has no time to see him, so he randomly arranged a task for him to send him, which made Liu Bei very sad.
Everything was ready to stop, Ye Chen began to attack, his offensive method was actually very simple, that is, cavalry cavalry shooting, learning from Wuhuan siege, this offensive method was nothing more than a large consumption of arrows.
"Second brother, you see, that is the army of General Jianwei Ye Chen, and the eldest brother specially ordered to pay attention to it.
Zhang Liang pointed to Ye Chen's army and said.
"Huangfu Song's handsome banner is also there, I think that is the main direction of attack of the Han army, I will take people to defend, you go to other places to watch."
After Zhang Liang left, Zhang Bao snorted coldly and said: "Hmph, Ye Chen, I want to see how your cavalry attacks, you were lucky to let you escape before, and I will be a fool if I don't beat you this time." ”
It turned out that Zhang Bao was still angry about the two losses suffered under Ye Chen's hands, and he always wanted to take revenge, but now he thought that Ye Chen actually wanted to attack the city with cavalry, and this was the best time to take revenge.
Zhang Bao began to command the Yellow Turban to transport piles of materials to defend the city, and at the same time transferred a team of elite soldiers over.
