The Yuan army broke and fled all the way, and the rumors were loud, just like the Later Qin army. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Wei Yan's army kept chasing and killing, chasing for hundreds of miles, until Shouchun.
Gan Ning's men and horses were originally guarding against Huang Zu on the Jiangxia side, but when they received Wei Yan's military order to come to Huaishui, they were already a little late.
When Wei Yan's army approached Huaishui, nearly 10,000 Yuan troops had been received by the navy, crossed Huaishui, and fled into Shouchun City.
And Wei Yan's army could only look at Kuang Kuang's Huaishui and sigh, set up camp, and waited for Ganning's army to come down from the upstream to respond.
At this time, the results came out.
The main Bo Dongju had just finished counting and remembered the numbers vividly, so he didn't read the booklet and said the numbers: "Our army lost more than 1,200 people, most of them were killed by the enemy's bow and arrow when crossing the river, and our army seriously wounded more than 1,400 people, of which only more than 900 people could be saved, but the remaining more than 500 people could only survive for a few days, and our army suffered minor injuries of more than 2,900 people, most of them were cavalrymen who charged ahead, and more than 2,100 people were able to fight again after their injuries were healed, and the remaining 700 people were disabled for life. ”
Wei Yan frowned slightly, the casualties were bigger than he imagined, he originally thought that the casualties were very few, it seems that Yuan Shu's men and horses still have some elite soldiers: "In this way, the loss of our army in this battle has reached more than 2,400 people, so what about the loss of Yuan's army?" ”
Dong Ju replied: "Only more than 9,000 people of Yuan's army fled into Shouchun, and the remaining more than 90,000 people stayed here, of which about 13,000 were killed in battle or seriously wounded and waiting to die, and the remaining 77,000 people were slightly injured. ”
Wei Yan was shocked and asked, "How can there be so many people who are not willing to join us?" ”
"Lord Mingjian, the more than 9,000 soldiers are veterans who followed Yuan Shu, they were forced by the situation this time and wanted to live, so they disarmed, but they were all worried about their families in Huainan, and they still had a trace of loyalty to Yuan Shu in their hearts, so they refused to submit to our army."
"Then send them to Chen to mine." For this kind of guys, Wei Yan was unceremonious.
Wei Yan asked Wei Yu, who was in charge of intelligence, "Ah Yu, how many people are there in Shouchun City now?" ”
Wei Yu replied: "According to the agent report, Yuan Shu originally left more than 10,000 horses in Shouchun City, and now there are nearly 10,000 horses who have fled into Shouchun City. However, among the 30,000 horses, 5,000 are sailors, distributed on the Huaishui, beware of our army smuggling across the Huaishui. ”
"With only 30,000 horses, morale is low," Wei Yan said: "Shouchun, I will attack it!" ”
Dong Ju exclaimed: "My lord, the art of war is cloudy, and the ten rules are encircled, and the strength of our army is still slightly inferior to Yuan's army, how can we attack?" ”
Wei Yan smiled: "Isn't there still 70,000 Yuan Jun who are willing to submit to us, they are worms in Yuan Shu, and they will become dragons when they come to us!" They are the main force in this siege! ”
Dong Ju suddenly understood that those who joined the army were not eating for nothing, and they could quickly transform the enemy army into our army.
In the following days, Wei Yan's army was stationed on the north bank of Huaishui, while reorganizing 70,000 prisoners, and at the same time dividing troops to sweep the Yuan Shu forces in Huaibei, waiting for the grain and grass loaded down from the upper reaches of Huaishui, while waiting for the arrival of the Ganning naval army.
Huaishui is a big river second only to the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, naturally different from Rushui so narrow, especially the Huaishui in the north of Shouchun, the river surface is several miles wide, and the river surface is blocked by Yuan Shu's five thousand water army, and Wei Yan's army can only wait for the time being.
More than ten days have passed, and the Wei army has not crossed the Huaishui.
The Yuan soldiers on Huaishui slowly relaxed their nervous vigilance at the beginning, and later they all returned to their previous laziness from top to bottom.
That night, more than a dozen small boats quietly passed by from the upper reaches of the Huai River.
Subsequently, a hundred Wei cavalry quietly appeared on the south bank of Huaishui, each of them had a white goose feather on their helmets, and rushed to the dry village on the way to the Yuan army's water army, removed the antlers, shouted, and killed into the village.
The cavalry of the hundred Wei army rushed left and right, setting fire back and forth, and the dry villages on the shore of the Yuan army were on fire everywhere.
When Yuan Jun was all asleep, he suddenly woke up, panicked, and did not know how many enemy soldiers there were, and there was a great chaos.
The 100 Wei cavalry galloped across the camp, killing anyone they could, and no one could do it!
The soldiers of Yuan's army on the ship were attracted by the scene on the shore, and shouted one after another to go for reinforcements.
At this time, dozens of small boats came from upstream, all with large nails in the bows; The ship was loaded with dry reeds, filled with fish oil, and covered with sulfur and flame nitrate, each covered with a green cloth and oil sheet.
Yuan's sailors were all attracted by the movement on the shore and did not notice the small boats coming upstream.
The boat went down the river and soon reached the Yuan Jun Water Village, where the sailors on the boat lit dry wood and jumped into the water.
The dozens of small boats rushed into the Yuan Jun Water Village by the current, and in an instant, the hundreds of warships in the Yuan Army's Water Village were all on fire.
In one night's work, hundreds of big ships and hundreds of small boats were all burned down!
Gan Ning's 100 elite horsemen safely killed the Yuan army's dry village, retreated to the side, and chased and killed.
Of the five thousand Yuan Shu naval army, only one thousand returned to Shouchun City. Two thousand were killed in the fire, two thousand surrendered, and Yuan Shu lost control of Huaishui.
At this time, hundreds of warships came down from the upper reaches and crossed the Huaishui with the elite of the Wei army.
Since, Huaishui was controlled by the Wei army.
……
It turned out that as early as a few days ago, Gan Ning had rushed from Jiangxia to the upper reaches of Huaishui, ready to lead the water army to fight a vicious battle with the Yuan army.
But the problem is that the Ganning Navy has fought viciously in Jiangxia before, and it has been exhausted for a long time.
Wei Yan studied with Xu Shu and sent someone to report to Gan Ning and ask him to act according to the plan.
Gan Ning selected a hundred elites from the army.
That night, in the barracks, let a hundred elites sit in a row, first pour wine in a large bowl, drink two bowls of themselves, and then say to the hundred people: "I am ordered to rob the village tonight, please all the princes drink a full drink, and strive to move forward." ”
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other.
Gan Ning saw that everyone was in trouble, drew his sword in his hand, and said angrily: "I am a general, and I will not spare my life; Why should you hesitate! ”
When everyone saw Gan Ning's color, they all bowed and said, "I am willing to serve death." ”
Gan Ning ate the wine and meat with 100 people, took 100 white goose feathers at about the second watch, inserted them in his helmet as a number, put on his armor and got on the horse, and went straight to the dry village of Yuan Shu's army.
At the same time, more than a dozen of the burning ships were also ready to stop and sail down the river.
That's why you can win easily.
……
Wei Yan crossed the Huaishui, and after seeing Gan Ning, he laughed and said: "Xingba Hundred Cavalry Robbery Camp will definitely become a good story!" It's a pity that it is used for Yuan Jun, it is really a knife to kill chickens! ”
After that, the Wei army pointed directly at Shouchun and vowed to capture Yuan Shu and his Empress Feng, who was known as the national color.
