Chapter 148: Engagement 1

It is now August of 187 C.E. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

However, at this moment, Liangzhou is not only hot, but also the atmosphere is very hot. Especially Tianshui City by the Weishui River.

At this moment, within a radius of forty miles from Tianshui City, nearly 300,000 troops had gathered to confront each other.

Among them, the 70,000 army of Huangfu Song and Dong Zhuo and the 50,000 army of Ma Teng are opposite each other across the river; Cao De's more than 40,000 people confronted Han Sui's more than 40,000 people across the city under Tianshui City; Zhu Jun's 20,000 men confronted Liang Xing, who refused to defend the city, in Shangbang.

The two sides have already set up a full position, and they can only order that the battle is about to begin.

The first to attack was Zhu Jun, who sent 5,000 infantry, divided into five teams, and launched a tidal attack on Shangbang City in turn.

Shangbang City is an inconspicuous city. In the past, the city of Shangbang was rarely remembered. But now, Shangbang City has become a city that is fought by both warring sides.

After the official army occupies Shangbang, one can use Shangbang as a base, which can be attacked and retreated; Second, it can also prevent the elite cavalry of the rebels from attacking the camp.

After Zhu Jun launched an attack on Shangbang, the entire battle situation was suddenly involved.

After Han Sui in Tianshui City learned the news, he immediately sent 20,000 cavalry out of the west gate of Tianshui City and went around in a small circle to sneak attack Zhu Jun's rear army.

But will Cao De, who is under Tianshui City, let Han Sui's support soldiers and horses smoothly go around Zhu Jun's back?

Of course not! So, after Cao De received the news almost at the same time as Han Sui, Cao De also launched an attack on Tianshui City. However, the rat riders under Cao De's command quietly came out of the camp from the rear of Cao De's camp.

Cao De didn't know which gate Han Sui's people came out from. But Cao De knew that as long as Han Sui sent people out of the city, his destination was.

So, Zhao Yun rode to the rear of Zhu Jun with 10,000 rats and found a place with more lush woods to hide. At the same time, Zhu Jun also received a warning from Cao De. Watch your back.

Since Han Sui and Cao De of Tianshui City have made a move, Huangfu Song can't be idle. As a result, Huangfu Song gave the order to cross the river to his infantry. On the other hand, Dong Zhuo also led his 40,000 cavalry upstream along the north bank of Weishui, looking for a suitable place to cross the river, and then attacked Ma Teng's 50,000 troops from the flank.

Obviously, Huangfu Song wanted to use the 10,000 infantry under his command as bait this time to attract Ma Teng's attention. In order to allow Dong Zhuo to cross the river smoothly.

In fact, it is very disadvantageous to force a river crossing under the nose of the enemy. However, the current situation is close to not allowing Huangfu Song to rush back with the army and then cross the river.

If Huangfu Song really did this, then Cao De would be surrounded by an army of nearly 100,000 troops. This is a shameful act of betraying teammates.

In Cao De's previous life, his teammates were sold, and it was a big deal to return to the city and be resurrected with full blood. But now once Cao De is sold, it will be a tragic death for thousands of people.

In fact, Huangfu Song's choice to go hand in hand on both sides of Weishui was also purposeful.

That is to prevent the rebels in Tianshui City from splitting up a part of their men and horses to cross Weishui to the north of Weishui. This part of the army does not need too many, as long as there are 30,000 horses, it can make the coalition army of more than 100,000 officers and troops fall into a situation where there is no way to advance and no way to retreat.

As a result, the situation of the officers and soldiers is even more difficult.

The Great War began, without a tentative offensive and without the previous procedures for persuasion to surrender. Just because, the rebels in Tianshui not only insulted Fu Xie's corpse, but also slaughtered the city in Tianshui.

The camera zooms back to Shangbang City, where the siege battle is raging.

Zhu Jun did not deal with Liang Xing, who was defending the city, and directly pressed the infantry and forcibly attacked the city.

The besieging soldiers were eager for revenge and rushed to the city one by one. And most of them are also elite soldiers who have experienced the Battle of the Yellow Turbans.

On the other hand, most of the Liangxing soldiers defending the city were either scattered by Ma Teng and Han Sui in the two counties of Wuwei and Jincheng a month ago, or the strong men who were forcibly pulled away.

Therefore, although Liang Xing occupies the advantage of the city, the situation is not optimistic.

Although Liang Xing still had 20,000 cavalry, ninety percent of those cavalry were Qiang. The Qiang people are immediately powerful, and there are not many drops on the ground.

Moreover, the Qiang people did not bother to abandon their war horses and climb to the top of the city to defend the city.

Another point is that the Qiang people are serving Han Sui, and they don't have much feeling for this Liang Xing. Although, Han Sui asked Liang Xing to command, but the Qiang people ignored you, what should you do if you let Liang Xing. Don't dare to kill, kill the Qiang people who took the lead in making trouble, people rebelled collectively, Liang Xing really wanted to cry without tears!

No, the Qiang people in Shangbang City saw that the official army under the city was attacking very fiercely, so they ran up to the city and said to Liang Xing, you open the city gate and let me have 20,000 iron horsemen to level these miscellaneous fish and shrimp.

Of course, Liang Xing refused, and almost fought with the Qiang people who ran up to the city. In the end, the Qiang people pulled their knives and directly left the words, either you open the door for me, or I will kill all of you Han people and open the door by yourself. and then slaughtered all the Han people outside.

In the end, Liang Xing was helpless and took a step back. In this case, you go out from the south gate or the north gate, not through the east gate, in case the officials and soldiers outside the city take the opportunity to enter the city, then we don't have to play anymore, hurry up and prepare to flee for your life.

Seeing that Liang Xing had taken a step back, the Qiang people could not continue to persecute Liang Xing, so they also took a step back. Agreed to Liang Xing's proposal.

Cao Deke is different from Zhu Jun, Zhu Jun is a die-hard fan of Dahan, and he always puts Dahan first when thinking about things. Cao Deming's slogan was loud on his face, but his actions were greatly discounted.

Cao De took the men and horses to five miles below Tianshui City, and sent people to Tianshui City to write a war letter.

Han Sui looked at it, hey, isn't it just what I want when you kid gives me a war letter. So Han Sui gathered 10,000 people to go out of the city to meet this straw bag General Anxi, and on the other hand, he gathered 20,000 cavalry to prepare to sneak out of the city and attack Zhu Jun from behind when he was in the middle of the battle with Cao De.

If Zhu Jun's troops were defeated, they would still be able to come back with the cavalry in Shangbang and then sneak attack Cao De's back. What a triple win!

The abacus is good, but Zhao Yun has already taken 10,000 rats to ride on Zhu Jun's back and insert the knife, if you Han Sui engage in a sneak attack from behind, try this knife prepared for you first to see if it is sharp or not, and it is not good.

On the north bank of Weishui, Dong Zhuo had already left with his cavalry, and Huangfu Song also commanded the elite Han infantry under his command to begin to force the river crossing.

Ma Teng, who was guarding on the other side of the river, received a warning from Han Sui as soon as Cao De made a move. Han Sui asked Ma Teng to make trouble for Cao De when Cao De was busy attacking Tianshui.

Ma Teng has a headache, Cao De is his brother-in-law, and the two have already conspired. Although the two said that they could have fun, you asked Ma Teng to do something under Han Sui's nose.

At this moment, the soldiers who were monitoring the official battalion on the other side came to report. Huangfu Song is about to cross the river.

Ma Teng heard it, hey, it's too timely. I can't kill Cao De's people, but I can't kill your Huangfu Song's people. So Ma Teng waved his hand, and 10,000 Qiang people put down their horses, came to the Weishui River, lined up a square formation of nearly 30 columns, and waited for the officers and troops on the river to enter the shooting range and become a live target with nowhere to escape.

The Qiang men and horses are very good at fighting, and the bows and arrows are also very powerful. Let the Qiang people give Huangfu Song a half-crossing and attack, that's not right.

So, Ma Teng is now by the endless Weishui River, waving his big hand. 10,000 arrows were fired at the official ferryboat in the middle of the river.

However, as a famous general who has experienced a hundred battles, will Huangfu Song really let the soldiers die in vain?

After Ma Tengjun's army on the south bank of the river released six arrows, the ferry boat of the official army was not far from the river bank. Ma Teng looked at the strange ship full of arrows, and there was not even a human figure. Ma Teng laughed, couldn't it be that the officers and soldiers were all shot to death by themselves!

But without waiting for Ma Teng to comment on the ten thousand arrows in unison, the front faces of those strange ships full of missed arrows actually slapped on the surface of the water with a snap. Then Ma Teng's eyes were about to bulge.

What did Marten see?

He saw a dense patch of arrows that shone brightly.

Immediately afterwards, Ma Teng suddenly fell to the ground. Just now, because Ma Teng was idle, he dug a pit behind him to store water and catch fish. The current Ma Teng just rolled into this pit with a bone. Let Ma Teng dodge.

In fact, Huangfu Song had an idea in order to deal with Ma Teng's half-crossing, and remembered someone's whimsical ideas when he was drinking last time.

That is to add two layers of planks to the front and above of each ferry, leaving a gap of half a foot between the planks, and then fill it with dead grass and compact.

It's just that after that, there will be fewer people to carry. It's just that if you rush over without protection, I'm afraid that six of the ten people on a ship can reach the opposite shore alive under such a strong attack. But with the addition of this plank, ten people were reduced to six, and four people who survived to the other side also earned.

Moreover, in addition to the ferries in the first few rows, the front planks need to be installed. The rest of the ferries in the back need to add a layer to the roof.

The idea is, of course, that Cao De, the little deflated three, after drinking and getting drunk with Huangfu Song. The two inadvertently mentioned the methods used to deal with various battle situations. When Huangfu Song asked how to deal with the half-crossing attack, Cao De used his tongue to talk about this method of his own guess.

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention. This time, Huangfu Song made a batch according to the method that Cao De said. It's just that due to time, Huangfu Song only had time to modify a small half of the ferry.

However, the effect of this sandwich wood board seems to be good.

Not only did it successfully protect the lives of the soldiers on the ferry, but it also frightened the Qiang people guarding the river.

Anyone who suddenly sees a dense bow and arrow that is close at hand has been wound will lose his mind for a moment!

And then in this moment of distraction, they died! His body was full of arrows and he died!

Then, a large number of officers and soldiers jumped from the boat into the river, drew their big knives at their waists, and rushed towards the panicked Qiang people on the opposite bank.

The camera pulls back to Shangbang City again.

At this moment, the officers and soldiers have climbed the city wall. Officers and soldiers in red suits and rebels in white suits fought to the death at the head of the city.

Just when Zhu Jun was about to order another increase in troops to the city, a sentry reported that a large cavalry had appeared from the south side of the main army formation. It seems that the Qiang cavalry in the city should have left the city.

Zhu Jun pondered for a while, but first sent a thousand reinforcements to the head of Shangbang City. Then, the army turned around and prepared for the attack of the Qiang cavalry.

On Cao De's side, he is fighting in a serious way. The athlete who appeared in Cao Defang is represented by Zhang Fei, and Zhang Fei can be said to be Cao De's first fierce man nowadays. His appearance immediately caused deafening cheers. Immediately afterwards, Zhang Fei killed the athletes of the Han Sui team with one shot, and then the cheerleaders on Cao De's side began to beat the drums, and the trumpets were so lively!

On the other hand, the members of Han Sui's team looked at each other, why is this person so fierce!

Then, there is another Qiang who may think he has two brushes and then he comes out. In less than a minute, he was a corpse!

The cheerleaders of the Cao De team are back to work! It's a pity that there are no hot girls dancing!

Cao De saw that Zhang Fei picked the other two people in a row. I can't let him steal the limelight alone. So, Cao De was replaced as a substitute, and Xiahou Yuan appeared.

Since Cao De became the boss of Hanzhong County, Xiahou Yuan has been working in the rear in obscurity. In the Battle of the Yellow Turbans that year, Xiahou Yuan did not have a chance to appear. Now that Cao Ren has finally replaced Xiahou Yuan's job, it is time for Xiahou Yuan to show his coquettishness.

Han Suifang saw that Cao Defang had changed, and the one that came out now was much shorter than the one just now. According to the current measurement, Zhang Fei's height of 1.9 meters is indeed much taller than Xiahou Yuan, who is not as big as 1.8 meters. But if you underestimate Xiahou Yuan, then the fun will be great.

After Xiahou Yuan appeared, Han Suifang finally came out with a relatively strong person.

Xiahou Yuan is not as anxious as Zhang Fei, "I am the general of Zhenwu under General Anxi, Xiahou Yuan is also, who are you?" ”

The general on the opposite side didn't expect Xiahou Yuan to be so polite, and after hugging his fists, he replied: "I am Yang Qiu of Jincheng, and I will follow my general to lead 100,000 iron cavalry to level Luoyang." Don't be obsessed, but retreat quickly, so as not to provoke death. ”

Xiahou Yuan untied the strangely shaped bow and arrow he was carrying behind his back, and snorted coldly, "Don't be ashamed!" How about we compare bows and arrows?! ”

Knock, knock, knock,......

Cheerleading is on again!

Yang Qiu saw that this person actually wanted to compare bows and arrows with himself, didn't he know that I had been playing with those bows and arrows since I was a child! It's really self-defeating.

Yang Qiu smiled maliciously, nodded, and reached out to take the bow and arrow handed over by the soldier behind him.

Xiahou Yuan rode on his horse, bent his bow and arrows. The bow, which was already very peculiar in shape, was even more eye-catching when it was fully drawn. The aura emanating from the entire bow was like the scythe of death.

Yang Qiu also pulled out the bow in his hand. The bow is like a full moon, and at a glance, you can see that this person's bow and arrow are also very good.

After holding each other for a dozen breaths, the two released the bowstring in their hands almost simultaneously. Then Yang Qiu immediately made a dodge move, and then Yang Qiu opened his eyes angrily, but it was too late.

However, Xiahou Yuan fired two more bows before he began to dodge.

The victory or defeat was already clear in an instant, and Yang Qiu was dead. On his chest stood the tail of an arrow that was still trembling all the time.

Yang Qiu shot an arrow, and Xiahou Yuan easily dodged it; Xiahou Yuan shot out three arrows, the first one was dodged by Yang Qiu, the second cut Yang Qiu's arm, and the third one was stuck in his chest.

Xiahou Yuan's second and third arrows were actually aimed at Yang Qiu, who was in a state of evasion. So, Yang Qiu died.

As soon as Yang Qiu died, Han Sui was furious, so the three thousand cheerleaders of Han Sui's team were about to smash the field.

Can Cao De's cheerleading team be vegetarians? So, now it's time for a rush.

Han Sui, under the cover of 3,000 soldiers, returned to the city. The 3,000 soldiers left behind in the city were about to be drowned in the red sea.

On Ma Teng's side, after Huangfu Song's beach-grabbing landing force appeared, the Qiang people guarding the beachhead were startled by the sudden appearance of the enemy. However, their ferocious nature saved the lives of most of them.

All of a sudden, there was a chaotic scene of red and white on the south bank of Weishui.

A steady stream of red officers and troops rushed to the south bank; The white rebels, wielding sharp scimitars, also continued to gather towards the river.

The blood continued to gather and then flow into the Weishui water. The water near the river bank has been stained red with blood, and it is still spreading! (To be continued.) )
