Chapter 146: Mutual Calculations
Although the situation changed slightly, the basic policy of resisting the enemy could not be changed, so Zhang Yuan ordered the whole army to stop and camp on the spot on the bank of the Yishui River. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Under the auspices of Zu Di, the camp set up two camp walls, dug three trenches, four antlers, and a rock-solid camp soon stood on the bank of the Yishui River.
Zhang Yuan also issued a death order to all the generals and all the officers and men of the army, without his military order, no one is allowed to go into battle without authorization, and those who violate the order will be executed.
When Zhang Yuan'an set up camp, twenty miles away, tens of thousands of troops were swarming along the northbound avenue in the direction of the barracks.
At dusk, under the reflection of the remnant sun, countless soldiers and horses, like rolling water, approached Zhang Jun's camp.
Zhang Yuan was stationed in front of the camp, and his eagle eyes looked in the direction of the south.
The loud horn sounded, and I saw that at the end of the ground line, a big flag with the word "Liu" was slowly rising.
Immediately after, the endless black forest slowly emerged, the cold iron blade reflected the faint cold light, and the dense guns and halberds pointed straight at the sky, almost wanting to reflect the cold of the dark and heavy sky.
Countless infantry armies, rolling battle flags like waves, rolled up from the ground like a torrent.
Nearly 20,000 enemy troops gathered into a black angry wave from all directions, and under the guidance of the big banner with the word "Liu", they swept down from the hills and poured in.
The enemy was menacing, and the soldiers of the Zhang Army, who were lined up on the front line of the camp, subconsciously clenched the swords and guns in their hands, and their breathing became heavy.
Even though Zhang Yuan's face was as resolute as iron, there was also a chill in his heart.
After all, he has to fight against the extraordinary Liu Bao.
"Why does it seem that the number of soldiers and horses in Liu Bao is much more than in the intelligence?" Fan Lihua, who was beside her, found something suspicious.
Zhang Yuan also sensed the suspicion, raised his eyes and carefully scanned the enemy formation, and soon found the answer.
He saw a big banner with the word "Zhang", and the four or five thousand soldiers and horses led by that big flag, the armor and the banner were quite different from Liu Baojun's.
"It turned out to be Yuan Shu's subordinate Zhang Xun, Yuan Shu, you are really kind to Liu Bao, and you even sent soldiers and horses to help in the battle." Zhang Yuan sneered.
At this time, in the enemy formation on the opposite side, the rumbling drums have flickered like muffled thunder, and the distant horn sound bursts out with a thick murderous aura.
Liu Bao was about to attack.
At this moment, the expressions of the officers and men on the left and right became more and more uneasy, their emotions became more and more nervous, and the morale of the army was shaken before the battle.
Even if it is a subordinate who has experienced a hundred battles, in the face of the world-famous Liu Bao, it is difficult to restrain the fear in his heart.
What's more, nearly half of the 10,000 troops were recruited and recruited, and they were not veterans who had endured the battlefield.
And the number of enemies is twice as large as your own.
Zhang Yuan could not tolerate the frustration of the army's heart before the war, and immediately stared at the eagle and shouted: "Although the enemy army is numerous, what is there to fear!" Follow me Zhang Yuan, you will only win, you will not lose, you will give me the fucking blood, and fight to the death! ”
In the thunderous shouts, the pride and murderous spirit of the hunt burst out, and the loud sound actually overshadowed the sound of the enemy's horn, and the soldiers on the left and right heard it.
The original uneasy mood of the soldiers was immediately dispelled by Zhang Yuan's roar, and the confidence and fighting spirit on the originally restless faces were recondensed.
A pair of eyes looked at Zhang Yuan, the proud body like a green pine, how many times had led them to defeat strong enemies and turn things around, they believed that this time would not be an exception.
"Fight to the death!"
The soldiers of the three armies brandished their weapons and shouted wildly, and the roar of anger was like thunder that shook the sky, changing the color of the heavens and the earth.
One to ten, ten to hundred, in a moment, the entire battalion of more than 10,000 soldiers were like crazy, shouting in unison.
The fearless sound of killing, the sound shook all over the wilderness, and it actually changed the color of the oncoming raging enemy.
Hundreds of steps away, under the banner of the word "Liu" flying proudly, Liu Bao's eyes that defied the world couldn't help but pass a trace of different colors at this moment, as if he was shocked by Zhang Junruhong's morale.
A moment later, a sneer of disdain rose at the corner of Liu Bao's mouth, and his cold face was once again occupied by arrogance and disdain.
Then, he took a step forward, and the big knife in his hand was slowly raised and pointed at Zhang Jun's camp, but his eyes were biased to Zhang Xun beside him, "General Zhang, you are ordered to lead the soldiers and horses of your headquarters to attack the enemy camp from the front. ”
Zhang Xun frowned slightly, as if he was a little surprised by Liu Bao's order, and coughed dryly: "Little prince, the enemy camp is quite strong, I am afraid that relying on my 5,000 Huainan army alone may not be able to break through, why not press the whole army and sweep the enemy camp with one blow." ”
Liu Bao had a total of 20,000 soldiers and horses, but 5,000 of them were sent by Yuan Shu to help Zhang Xun in the battle, which was regarded as a guest army, so Zhang Xun naturally had the right to question Liu Bao's order.
Zhang Xun is not stupid, of course he will not take his soldier's life so easily to be a pioneer for Liu Bao.
Seeing that Zhang Xun refused, Liu Bao was not angry, but just showed a contemptuous gaze, and sneered: "I just heard that General Zhang, you are the first fierce general under Yuan Highway's account, and all your subordinates are Huainan elite soldiers, and I want to see your demeanor. ”
Liu Bao's words and expressions were clearly ridiculing Zhang Xun, and even indirectly satirizing Yuan Shu.
Zhang Xun's expression changed, and his face turned pale.
He immediately remembered Yuan Shu's instructions, and asked him to come to help Yuan Shu this time, so that he must not damage the prestige of his Yuan Shu and make Liu Bao look down on him.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xun's face was full of pride, and he said proudly: "The little prince doesn't need to use the agitation method, it's just a Zhang Yuan, how can I put it in my Huainan army, the little prince is watching the battle, Zhang went to take the kid's head."
After that, Zhang Xun was full of pride, turned his horse to look at the soldiers and horses of the headquarters, and soon, he led 5,000 Huainan troops and began to approach the camp of Zhang's army.
Five thousand cavalry slowly came out of battle and began to advance towards the front of the enemy camp.
Seeing that Zhang Xun had to obey the order, a sly smile quietly passed the corner of Liu Bao's mouth.
"Father, what Zhang Xun said also makes sense, why don't we put the whole army on it and destroy Zhang Yuan in one go, why let their Huainan Army steal the limelight." Rouge said puzzled.
Liu Bao smiled but did not speak, and there was a trace of cold pride on his knife-cut face.
Cheng Chu on the other side said with a smile: "The eldest lady doesn't know, this is exactly the master's cleverness, Yuan Shu sent Zhang Xun to come, obviously to help in the war, but in fact there is an intention to restrain us." At that time, if we take all the prefectures, Zhang Xun's 5,000 soldiers and horses will never retreat easily, which is equivalent to Yuan Shu planting a nail in the hinterland of our annexed states, he is not satisfied with the southern counties that we ceded to him, and wants to covet more. The little prince's trick can not only kill people with a knife, but also test the reality of the enemy camp, which is really a clever move to kill two birds with one stone. ”
Cheng broke Liu Bao's intentions, and even the title of rouge and the generals on the left and right, then he suddenly realized, and all of them cast admiring eyes at Liu Bao.
Liu Bao's face was even more arrogant, he laughed wildly, and ordered the drum to cheer Zhang Xun on.
The drums shook the sky and broke through the sky.
In the earth-shattering shouts of killing, 5,000 Huainan troops burst out, like a flood that swept across the field, rushing towards Zhang Ying.
"Liu Bao, you finally made a move, then let's use our fists to decide, who is the real master of Bingzhou......"
Zhang Yuan took a deep breath, drew his sword in his hand, and said sharply: "The whole army is ready to meet the enemy, and those who dare to take half a step back will be killed!" (To be continued.) )
