Chapter 146: Attacking Yingchuan

Guo Jia's performance made Ye Chen very happy, and he was about to float when he walked in the past two days.

Yingyin, Xunfu.

"Uncle, my friend went to Ye Chen's barracks, and he hasn't come back yet, I'm afraid I'm going to go out." Xun Yu came to see Xun Shuang and said to Xun Shuang.

"Well, you're talking about Guo Fengxiao, he is indeed a talent, no less than you, if he really serves Ye Chen, he won't be dusty." Xun Shuang said to Xun Yu.

"Uncle, Fengxiao's talent is much higher than mine, if he really serves Ye Chen, then this Ye Chen may not be as simple as he imagined."

"Wen Ruo doesn't have to be presumptuous, your talent is no less than your friend's, it's just that your skills are different. But one thing you said is right, if Feng Xiao served Ye Chen, then Ye Chen would definitely not be a simple character, at least in the face of the eunuch group, there were already countermeasures, and it was impossible for Feng Xiao to serve a person who was doomed. ”

Ye Chen, who was in the barracks, didn't know who he was going to meet before, and now he was discussing him, and he was now busy dealing with military affairs.

"According to the reconnaissance at the front, the officers and troops and the Yellow Turbans have been transferred, and there is a possibility that war will break out within two days."

Ye Chen has always made people pay attention to the situation of Yingchuan, Huangfu Song has given him a lot of autonomy, he will definitely not waste it in vain, now that the big war is about to start, he is studying the map drawn by the scouts with Guo Jia, Tai Shici and Guan Yu in the past few days.

"Fengxiao, if Lord Huangfu Song really fails, where should we rescue them." If you want to win, you must first lose, Ye Chen has already begun to think about how to deal with the worst-case scenario.

"My lord, two generals, look here." Guo Jia pointed to the map and said: "About ten miles northeast of Yingchuan, there is an open space, we are ambushing here, if there are pursuers, let the cavalry rush out and cut them off from the middle, so that they will not be able to continue the pursuit." ”

Ye Chen glanced at the map, this place is indeed suitable for cavalry charges, but it is only the worst plan, once the Emperor Fu Song and them fail, this plan will be implemented.

"Okay, then arrange it like this, but this is the last step, it is estimated that General Fu Song will launch an attack on the Yellow Turban in the next two days, and we will see if we can do something at that time."

"My lord, I propose to divide the whole army into three parts, first, two thousand people here to ensure the safety of the rear road; secondly, 3,000 men lay in ambush in this clearing, ready to meet the retreat of the army; Thirdly, 3,000 people moved around the battlefield, depending on the situation, and attacked at any time. Guo Jia suggested.

It is reasonable for everyone to think about it, they have already established a defense here, two thousand people are enough, and the cavalry is fast, the three thousand cavalry who go to the battlefield can support here at any time, and the three thousand cavalry in ambush can also quickly return after completing the task, so there is no problem here at all.

However, they all based on the failure of the official army, and they did not think that the official army would fail, because after all, the official army was trained and well-equipped, and most of the yellow turbans were people who had just put down their farm tools.

But Ye Chen didn't think so, he knew that in history, Huangfu Song was a failure, a big defeat, and was chased all the way to Changshe before he stabilized, and he was surrounded.

"Okay, then do it, Ziyi stays here, Yun Chang goes to ambush, and I take people to the battlefield to keep an eye on the situation over there." In the end, Ye Chen made a decision.

In Yingchuan City, the Yellow Turbans are entrenched, and Bo Cai and Peng Tuo rule over more than 100,000 Yellow Turbans, including 30,000 elite soldiers trained by them secretly, and these 30,000 elite soldiers have not fought until now, so they have not been detected by the imperial court.

Among the 30,000 elite soldiers, 8,000 are Yellow Turban wrestlers, Yingchuan is close to Luoyang, and has been planning for a long time, and it is one of the main forces of the Yellow Turban, and it is normal to have tens of thousands of elite soldiers.

After Huang Fu Song and the others arrived, they fought several battles, most of which were launched by Huang Fu Song in order to find out the combat power of the Yellow Turban Thief, so it was not a big war.

After a few battles, Huangfu Song felt that the combat power of the Yellow Turban was not high, and it was time for him to break through Yingchuan in one fell swoop and capture the leader of the Yellow Turban thief.

More than 40,000 officers and soldiers left the barracks and drove directly to Yingchuan to surround Yingchuan.

"Bo Shuai, the Han army is besieging the city, should we go out to fight them?" Peng Tuo asked from the side.

"No, we have more than 100,000 troops, just let them attack, they don't have the ability to take it." Bo Cai looked at the approaching Han army under the city and said.

"Bo Shuai, do you want to let them attack the city?" Peng Tuo asked.

Peng Tuo is also the commander of the Yellow Turban Qu, but Zhang Jiao let Bo Cai be the master, but his prestige is also very high, so Peng Tuo asked, and Bo Cai replied: "Yesterday, I have ordered the people of Yingyang and Yangqu to move closer to us, and when the time comes, they will come and go together, so that they will not come back." ”

"Bo Shuai, there are 20,000 horses in each of these two cities, and you transfer all of them over, so what about these two cities?"

"The main force of the Han army is here, as long as they are eliminated, the two cities will still be ours. Moreover, after the elimination of this Han army, then there will not be much main force south of Luoyang, and we will attack Luoyang with great momentum. Bocai said confidently.

Bocai is quite strategic, so Zhang Jiaocai chose him to be the commander of this generation, he has controlled a lot of cities, the power is strong, a single Yingchuan has gathered hundreds of thousands of yellow turbans, if you want to attack Luoyang, he can also mobilize tens of thousands of troops, but the premise is that the main force of the Han army in front of him must be eliminated.

Seeing that Bo Cai was already prepared, Peng Tuo didn't say anything more and focused on the Han army.

In the camp of the Han army, Huangfu Song was in the middle of the command, and a big banner was embroidered with a big "Song" character, and when he arrived at the city of Yingchuan, he was not in a hurry to attack.

"Sect member, you lead people to feint to attack the west gate and the south gate, and I will attack the north gate." Huangfu Song turned his head to Zhu Jun and said, "Lord Lao Zhu has led the crowd to attack the east gate." ”

"Don't worry, Lord Huangfu, the east gate is handed over to me." After speaking, Zhu Jun divided some soldiers and horses and went to the east gate.

The whole city was surrounded by the Han army. After besieging the whole city, the Han army began to attack, and the Han army was different from the Yellow Turbans, they had siege equipment.

The city truck and the ladder are the most basic, with an order, the Han army began to attack the city, the city car began to crash into the city gate, the ladder was also erected, and began to climb the city.

The Yellow Turbans in the city obviously made a lot of preparations, and as soon as the Han army arrived at the city, the stones above began to fall, and a small number of bows and arrows also began to attack the Han army below.

The city walls of the two lords had already begun a fierce battle at this time, and the Han army attacked fiercely as soon as it came up, rushing to the city wall in waves, and climbing up with a cloud ladder.

The yellow scarves on it have been entrenched in Yingchuan for a long time, and a lot of materials have already been prepared to defend the city, and stones and rolling logs are constantly being smashed.

The Han army who was climbing the ladder was careful to dodge, but often, the person at the top dodged, but the others below did not see it, and as a result, they were smashed and fell, crying for their lives.

Seeing the tenacious guards at the head of the city and the strength of the Yellow Turbans, Huangfu Song was afraid that he would not be able to attack for a long time, so he sent only 2,000 archers to shoot at the city wall to reduce the pressure on the siege team below.

With the addition of archers, the pressure on the siege team was really much less, but there were many Yellow Turbans and the advantage of the city wall, so there were huge casualties soon after the first attack.

Huang Fu Song saw the huge casualties of the siege team, and his brows were furrowed, and he also saw that the combat effectiveness of the Yellow Turban was not high, but there were many people.

Originally, Huangfu Song didn't want to attack in such a hurry, according to his plan, it was best to besiege the Yellow Turbans and force them to go out of the city to fight.

However, Yingchuan was close to Luoyang, and the imperial court was afraid that the Yellow Turban would attack Luoyang, so it ordered him to eliminate the Yellow Turban as soon as possible, so Huangfu Song began to carry out a tentative attack as soon as he arrived here, and after a few tests, he ordered to start attacking the city.
