Chapter 556: Angry Zhang He

With such morale, coupled with such equipment, coupled with the strategies discussed by people like Liu Feng, Pang Tong, and Zhou Yu, the 100,000 army under Liu Feng is comparable to the more than 200,000 troops in the hands of Sima Yi before.

Zhang He's garrison, just outside the city of Huaili, the reason why not stationed in the city, is because of this place Zhang He selected to garrison, this place is backed by the mountain, the side of the camp is a river, and the other side is the city of Huaili, Zhang He himself led the army to camp in the camp outside the city, and sent a deputy general in the city, the two echoed, plus the mountain behind is his own natural barrier, such a geographical location makes Zhang He confident that he can resist most of the enemy attacks, The Tongguan behind him will never be lost.

Liu Feng naturally did not know anything about the situation around Huaili, and during the time that Pang Tong was here, he had already explored the distance and relationship between Zhanghe's camp and the city very clearly

The reason why Zhang He was able to defend the land of Yongzhou for a long time was because he was an extremely stable person, and it was precisely because of his stable temperament that he was able to come up with such a way to divide the defenders into two parts, and cooperate with each other, once Yongzhou was attacked, it was absolutely difficult for the enemy army to quickly attack their city without being discovered.

If it was placed before, Liu Feng and Pang Tong and others were a little overwhelmed by such an arrangement, but this time because of the attack on Liangzhou by Guan Ping and Guan Xing brothers, Guo Huai, who was originally guarding Yongzhou, led 20,000 soldiers to Liangzhou, so that the guards in the city would naturally be empty, and this situation gave Liu Feng and others an opportunity.

After leaving Yangping Pass, Yongzhou was already close at hand, and Liu Feng knew that it was absolutely impossible for his mighty army to hide forever.

So he ordered Ma Chao to lead the cavalry to take the lead, at this time Zhang He was stationed in the camp outside the city There were about 40,000 men and horses, and there were at least 50,000 people in the city before, but Guo Huai took away 20,000, so the city and the outside of the city together are only 70,000 or 80,000 people, if it is according to the ordinary, it is not a problem to keep Liu Feng's 100,000 people outside the city, but obviously, the battle with Liu Feng's participation is often not based on common sense.

It was night, Zhang He was reading the book of war in the camp, the life that has been guarding the land of Yongzhou all these years is undoubtedly very monotonous, before the master of Yizhou was still Liu Zhang, Zhang He did not have a trace of pressure here, but when Liu Feng occupied Yizhou, step by step rise, especially after Cao Cao died, the situation became very different, when Yizhou's strength has been significantly stronger than Yongzhou, Zhang He naturally can no longer relax as before, since Liu Feng became emperor, He is guarding the camp closest to Yizhou every day, and he can be said to be doing his best for the guards of Yongzhou.

And the remaining lieutenant generals in the city, but not as meticulous as Guo Huai, Liu Feng led the army to raid Weixing County, and the soldiers of Yizhou began to attack Liangzhou again, in his opinion, these things can just make Yongzhou, where he is located, temporarily out of danger, plus Zhang He is not far from the city to guard, surrounded by mountains and rivers, he does not believe that the soldiers of Yizhou can touch here to attack.

But what Liu Feng wanted to achieve was exactly what the generals of Wei couldn't believe, just like Sima Yi might still be thinking hard about how to crack the many small catapults that were made by Liu Feng's army for some reason, no one knew that Liu Feng would come here from Jingzhou in just a few days.

Bypassing Zhang He's camp, Ma Chao's cavalry acted as scouts, they were prepared in the night to find the fact that the city guards were very lax, and then used almost the whole night, Liu Feng ordered all the sergeants under his command to go into battle lightly, and the tens of thousands of troops without baggage were not discovered by Zhang He, they came to the farthest side of Huaili outside the city from Zhang He before the sky had some light, and the guards in the city had indeed not fallen asleep at this time, It's just that he didn't put any energy on guarding the city, but took advantage of the absence of Guo Huai, who strictly restrains himself on weekdays, to use all his strength on a beautiful Ji in the city, although the sky is already a little bright, but he is still fighting on that Mei Ji's body, because he knows that once Guo Huai comes back, he will enter that simple and boring life again.

It wasn't until his sergeants hurriedly broke into the room he had strictly forbidden to enter, and relayed to him the news that a large number of sergeants were attacking the city, that he realized how much trouble he had caused

But things in the world often regret that can not solve any problems, when the lieutenant general arrived at the city wall and was ready to command his men to resist for a while, what appeared in his eyes was the enemy army all over the mountains, and the hastily built defense could not stop the impact of Liu Feng's army at all, under the impact of heavy wooden piles, half an hour, the city of Huaili had been broken by Liu Feng with a blitzkrieg.

And when Liu Feng broke through the city of Huaili, the news had just reached Zhang He's ears, Zhang He heard about it, and it took a long time for him to react, Liu Feng's army appeared here from Yangping Pass for no reason, which was indeed what he did not expect, but the city of Huaili was broken so quickly, and he did not expect it.

After learning about this, Zhang He immediately issued three orders: the first order was to send people to Liangzhou to recall Guo Huai and the 20,000 troops led by him, he knew that it seemed that the soldiers and horses in Liangzhou must be suspicious, with Guo Huai's return, the two of them could still resist it here after discussion, otherwise with the tens of thousands of horses in his hands, it would be difficult to defend without danger.

The second order was to send someone to quickly return to Yecheng to inform Cao Zhi of the incident when Liu Feng's army was not familiar with the surrounding environment of Huaili, although Zhang He didn't know whether the soldiers here were stronger or the troops of Weixing County were stronger, but he didn't believe it if he wanted to tell him that this was a feint.

The third order is to behead the general who took over Guo Huaizhen to guard Huaili City on the spot, such a low-level mistake, so that the enemy army can easily attack his own city, which is absolutely intolerable to Zhang He, as the main general, in his heart, the existence of such a general is a shame for him or Wei State, and it is useless to stay in this world.
