Chapter 72 Zhao Zilong broke through two camps in one night
Although Yang Ding and Hu Zhen are fellow villagers in Liangzhou, the relationship between the two has never been close. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoHu Zhen was already famous in Liangzhou when he was young, and Yang Ding was unknown until Dong Zhuo's death. But time has passed, and now the two are standing together again, but Hu Zhen is unconsciously shorter.
It was a helpless move for the two people to fight together, and naturally it was impossible to talk about working together, and even the camps set up by the two armies were far apart, and the hostility and vigilance between them were undoubtedly revealed.
"Tomorrow is the pre-arranged siege time, I don't know what Brother Wencai plans to do?"
Although Yang Ding was talking to Hu Zhen, his eyes were staring directly at the sunset on the horizon.
Hu Zhen's stomach was full of unhappiness, but he still smiled and said: "Brother Renovation has strong soldiers and horses, and he is naturally the main force of the siege, and I am old and weak on my side, and I have more than enough strength but not enough strength, so I can only help Brother Renovation beat the side drum." ”
Yang Ding snorted coldly, and said with a smile instead of anger: "Brother Wencai is really calculating, he is worthy of being a wise general in my Xiliang Army who has stood for many years without falling!" My sons and daughters went up to fight hard, but you waited under the city to reap the profits of the fishermen, I really can't understand how you were cheeky to say such brazen words! ”
Hu Zhen gritted his teeth, suppressed his anger and asked, "What is Brother Zhen's opinion?" ”
Yang Ding said with a straight face: "You and I take turns to fight, and they change every two hours. In addition, set up a law enforcement team, if there is a person who flinchs and escapes, he will be killed on the spot and will not be tolerated! ”
Hu Zhen blinked his eyes and asked again, "Then who will go into battle first?" ”
Yang Ding closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and sneered without saving half of Hu Zhen's face: "In order to avoid being affected by the gang of cowards under your hand and ruining the morale of our army, I'll go first." ”
Hu Zhen endured the unhappiness in his heart, arched his hand and squeezed out a smile: "Then I wish the renovation brother a victory and a victory in the first battle!" ”
Yang Ding snorted coldly, turned around and left, but heard Hu Zhen reminding him behind him: "Han Jun'er is the best at night attacks, don't be negligent when you repair your brother!" ”
Yang Ding stood still, turned around and looked at Hu Zhen coldly: "A certain is a soldier on the border, and he has risen to today's position step by step, and he has seen a lot of intrigues and tricks on the battlefield, and he doesn't need Brother Wencai to point at the side." ”
Hu Zhen snorted, turned his head and left, his warning was not out of good intentions, in fact, he didn't think that Han Jun would attack the camp in his heart. It's not that Han Jun doesn't dare, but among the soldiers and horses besieging the city from all four directions, their strength is the weakest, and it is almost impossible to become Han Jun's first target.
It's a pity that Hu Zhen's unintentional words are a prophecy.
Although Yang Ding scoffed at Hu Zhen's reminder on the surface, he paid a little more attention to the camp patrol in his heart. After returning to the camp, several more teams of light and dark sentries were added, and the soldiers were ordered not to unload their armor while resting, and to be vigilant at all times. I endured my tiredness and personally patrolled the camp until I was close to ugliness, but finally I couldn't hold it anymore and sat in the handsome tent and fell asleep.
Yang Ding slept very lightly, and his sleep quality had always been very poor, not to mention that when the war was in full swing, he was actually just squinting and napping, but he was listening to every grass in the camp with his ears sideways.
On the fourth watch, the sky has been slightly white, but the vast earth is still shrouded in darkness.
Yang Ding stood up suddenly, his eyes exuded a cold killing intent, he took a deep breath and strode out of the tent.
If Yang Ding only vaguely heard the faint sound of horses' hooves in his sleep just now, then at this time he was already very sure that Han Jun had really launched a night attack, and the target of the attack was the Hu and Yang coalition forces, which seemed to be the weakest on paper.
"When the enemy is coming, order the whole army to be on alert, strictly guard the camp gate, light the torches, and send a signal to ask for help from friendly troops!"
Yang Ding began to arrange the defense in an orderly manner, on the surface he was not alarmed, but in his heart it was turbulent, and he was afraid, if he hadn't woken up from sleeping, he was afraid that he would really be attacked into the camp by the Youhe Iron Cavalry, and it would be too late to regret it at that time.
Yang Dingjun's reaction was very fast, which also made Zhao Yun, who led the army to sneak attack, feel a little surprised, but he was not shocked by this, because Yang Dingjun was not the purpose of his trip.
And Hu Zhenjun, who was not far from Yang Dingjun, was still in chaos. When Hu Zhen hurriedly began to deploy defenses in his mid-coat, it was already too late.
Zhao Yun rushed to the front first, and the silver spear flew up and down, breaking straight into the central hinterland of the battalion commander of Hu Zhenjun as if entering a no-man's land, and countless torches flew wherever he passed, turning a huge camp tent into a sea of fire.
The surging tongues of fire dyed the black sky a blinding scarlet. And in this sea of fire, the former elite iron cavalry led by Zhao Yun rushed left and right like a tiger out of the mountain, reaping the lives of Hu Zhen's soldiers like a humanoid killing god.
Hu Zhen has never been a commander who sees death as if he were home, otherwise, he would not have rebelled twice, and the enemy forces he saw were unstoppable, so he would no longer be blocked. In a panic, he climbed onto a war horse, and fled for his life regardless of the horse.
It will be the courage of soldiers, how can the cowardly Hu Zhen bring out a soldier who is not afraid of life and death? After Hu Zhen ran away, the soldiers and horses under his command naturally lost the courage to resist, and they threw away their armor and fled towards the darkness with their legs desperate.
After Zhao Yun led his troops to turn Hu Zhenjun upside down, he turned his horse back and looked at Yang Dingjun's camp not far away, sneered, and ordered murderously with a finger of the silver gun: "Push these timid Xiliang dogs in that direction!" ”
Yang Dingben was already fully prepared, and waited for Zhao Yun to come to the camp, but he never thought that the Youhe Iron Cavalry had not yet come, but first waited for a group of Xiliang compatriots who fled for their lives.
And not far behind them, Yang Ding could clearly feel the slow and powerful sound of the iron hooves stomping on the ground.
Therefore, Yang Ding immediately made a decision, Yang Ding raised his ring head knife, "Send someone to warn, swords and guns have no eyes, arrows are ruthless, but anyone who enters the camp within 100 steps, don't blame us for not remembering the friendship of our compatriots, and we will be killed!" ”
As Yang Ding's words fell, the crossbowmen behind him bent their bows and drew arrows one after another, shooting out rows of arrows with the help of the blazing firelight. This arrow was only a warning to the defeated troops of Hu Zhen's army, so they were all shot in the open space, and did not cause substantial damage to their Xiliang compatriots.
However, Yang Ding's approach angered the defeated soldiers of the Hu Zhen army, who had been rushed here like ducks, and they were already full of humiliation, and now they have suffered such treatment. Under the anger, coupled with the fact that they didn't believe that Yang Dingzhen dared to kill them, they could only continue to attack Yang Dingjun's camp.
It's not that they are really not afraid of death, but whether they turn back or abscond to both sides, it is a dead end. It's not that no one has tried it before, but without exception, all of them died tragically under the iron hooves of the Youji Army. Therefore, they can only grit their teeth and gamble their lives, and use all their strength to increase the speed of running to the fastest, which can be regarded as an alternative "knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, and preferring to go to the tiger mountains".
However, Yang Ding killed all their hope of survival, and just as they were getting closer and closer to the gate of the camp, the arrows emptied and caused them to fall in a pool of blood one by one. The Xiliang soldiers who fell to the ground, but their sloppy eyes all looked in one direction, that was their hometown, and they could never go back.
The people who died in front of his eyes may have their own fellow villagers and township parties, or they may have their own distant relatives, but Yang Ding must force himself to throw away all his pity and forbearance, so he knows very well in his heart that if he takes in these defeated soldiers with the kindness of his wife, it is likely that the soldiers and horses under his command will soon become defeated soldiers.
However, in the time of a cup of tea, the corpses at the gate of Yang Dingjun's camp were piled up, and the blood flowed like a river, and Yang Ding, who was suffering in his heart, had a face that became hideous and terrifying, and his hatred for the Youhe Army also reached the highest value.
And the soldiers under him, the stronger ones can still hold back, and the ones who are less able to bear it are already full of tears. The tragic fate of Hu Zhenjun made them full of fear for their future, but on the other hand, it also made their determination to resist the Youji army stronger.
About two miles away from Yang Dingjun's camp, Zhao Yun slowly restrained his war horse. At this time, the morning sun has already revealed a bright red color in the sky, and the dark sky has gradually become clear.
"Almost, it's time!"
Zhao Yun sat on the horse calmly, pricking up his ears and listening to the movement in the distance.
Zhao Yun did not move, Yang Ding did not dare to go out of the camp to fight, and the unparalleled combat power of the Youhe Iron Cavalry left a deep impression on him in the Chang'an street battle a few days ago. Therefore, he had to rely on the fortifications to have the courage to fight against the army. This has to be said to be a great shame for the Xiliang Iron Rider who once galloped the world.
Yang Ding's attention was on Zhao Yun's body, but he didn't expect that at dawn, just behind him, there was an earth-shattering shouting of killing in three directions at the same time.
"It's over, it's all over!"
Yang Ding looked up to the sky and sighed, and sat on the ground like a frustrated person, and in his heart he had already figured out the plan of the Youhe Army in an instant. Surrounded on all sides, this is treating him as a turtle in an urn! No wonder Zhao Yun didn't move, and no wonder the Youji army chose to launch a surprise attack on the fourth watch, it turned out that all of this was prepared for this moment!
Yang Dingjun's soldiers and horses are actually not a lot, and there are more than 20,000 people on foot and horse, but if you want to block the wolf-like and tiger-like Youji Iron Cavalry, this number of people is still far from enough. The most important thing is that whether it is the morale of the army or the armor and blade, the Xiliang army is far inferior to their opponents. In the case of a huge difference in strength, it would be a great miracle if the Xiliang Army could win!
