Chapter 419: The Long March of the Three Kingdoms VIII
Lecheng, West City Gate.
Ten miles outside the city, on the plain under a hillside, scattered camp tents were erected, and then simple fences erected with felled wooden stakes around them were erected to build the camps.
It can be regarded as forming a barely defensively almost impossible camp.
The Montenegrin Yellow Turban is really poor, so poor that there is no rice to cook, so poor that tens of thousands of Montenegrin troops can't get together the spears, and some even use bamboo spears or wooden guns, and naturally there are not many tents.
Ordinary people all sat in the camp, either leaning on the rocks or on the wooden stakes, and divided into a circle to form a circle.
"Can we escape to Fuyang?"
"If I knew we wouldn't have come out, how good it would be to hide in Montenegro!"
"In a few days, it is estimated that I will not even be able to eat porridge and wild vegetables!"
"Looks like I'm still going to die!"
These people are generally frightened by yesterday's bloody battle, some complain, some are pessimistic, and some are self-defeating.
"Folks, we must arrive in Fuyang!"
"How brave General Zhou Tai of Wu was yesterday, you all saw it, we have to believe General Zhou Tai!"
"As long as we get to the country of Wu, we will be able to live a good life, folks, we must persevere!"
The soldiers of the Montenegrin Army are constantly encouraging the people, and the results are good, the Montenegrin Yellow Turban still trusts the Montenegrin Army, although it is not optimistic, but it can barely be quiet.
The Chinese army battalion.
Zhang Hong was stabbed by Han Meng, cut off the horse directly, and received another horse's hoof, a wound of more than five centimeters on the back, and several broken ribs on the chest.
Although he has been bandaged, he is also a powerful general who cultivates the Qi realm. It was considered to have survived, but now the serious injuries have not healed, and there is no blood at all, very pale, and weak, lying quietly on a wooden board in the camp.
The general of the temporary chief of the tens of thousands of Montenegrin troops has been replaced by Zhou Tai.
Zhou Tai's burly body sat on top of the throne steadily. The Black Mountain generals standing on the left and right at the bottom all looked at his figure.
There was a hint of admiration in the eyes of these Montenegrin generals looking at him, and there was also a hint of fear in their admiration.
The soldiers in the era of cold weapons are all respected by martial arts, and the strong can always quickly gain the respect and recognition of the soldiers.
Yesterday's battle, Zhang Hong has been defeated, it is difficult to protect himself, tens of thousands of Montenegrin troops are about to be wiped out, and hundreds of thousands of people are also suffering, Zhou Tai is like a savior at this time. saved all of them, and Zhou Tai ran amok with a long knife, killing more than five Jin generals, and it only took ten rounds to defeat Han Meng, the fierce general of the Jin cavalry.
This gorgeous and somewhat ferocious scene lingered in the minds of the generals of these Montenegrin Army. Can't erase it.
Zhou Tai's strength, Zhou Tai's ferocity. It is already beyond their imagination, and in their hearts, I am afraid that it is even more terrifying than his handsome Zhang Yan, so they have to pay attention to it.
For them now, it is fortunate that Zhou Tai is here, otherwise they would not be able to support it at all.
"Everyone!"
Zhou Tai's face was very calm, and his eyes were a little sharp. Looking at the generals, a deep voice of determination sounded, and said: "No matter what, we have to break through Lecheng's defense." ”
Nowadays, there are more and more Black Mountain Yellow Turban teams that resist Lecheng, and there is a steady stream of teams behind them. One after another, they kept entering the range of Lecheng, and then all of them were blocked in Lecheng.
Coupled with the group of people this morning, at least nearly 300,000 people of Montenegro have now entered the range of Lecheng, and there are already complaints among the people.
If they fail to break through for a long time, something will definitely happen.
At that time, it will be troublesome, so many people, if there is a mutiny, the team will inevitably collapse and be torn apart, except for Zhang Yan, the commander of the Black Mountain Army who is far away in Julu, I am afraid that even if he and Zhang Hong exert their strength at the same time, they will not be able to suppress it.
If you are not careful, you will lose all your efforts.
Zhou Tai will never allow such a thing to happen, it is very difficult for these millions of Black Mountain Yellow Turbans to get to this point, and for this trip, the number of people who have died one after another on the way has been quite large.
For the country of Wu and for Montenegro, it is necessary to break through Lecheng.
"You don't want to be for ourselves, but for our folks and people behind us, we must break through quickly!"
Zhou Tai's face was firm, and he said categorically: "We must pay for the battle of our lives, and we will not hesitate to pay the price, and press the music!" ”
If these soldiers and horses of the Wu State, he doesn't need to say so much, he will give orders directly, but in the face of the Montenegrin army, which is still a little unfamiliar, he still has to take a little trouble to persuade them to attack Lecheng.
"General Zhou, we also know that we must break through."
A Montenegrin general, a little thin, with sharp eyes, he stood up, looked at Zhou Tai, and said helplessly: "But now Lecheng has been blocked to death, today we have attacked the city twice, both of which cannot be broken, tens of thousands of cavalry in the city, advance can be attacked, retreat can be defended, even if we are a detour, we can't go!" ”
If you detour from Lecheng, the only way is to take Dongguang City in Bohai County, and then pass through the south of Guò County to resist Fuyang.
Walking like this, the distance is at least doubled, which is very troublesome, and now the city of Lecheng is full of cavalry, and the cavalry is very fast, and it can be sneak attacked at any time, and it is impossible to prevent it.
"A detour is not an option!"
When Zhou Tai heard this, he shook his head, sighed, and said: "The biggest trouble now is not the city of Lecheng, but the tens of thousands of Jin cavalry in the city. ”
The cavalry was eyeing each other, and their ranks were stretched so long that once they moved, the defense line was empty and could collapse at any time.
"General Zhou, in the face of tens of thousands of cavalry, we can't move now, and there is no way, our Montenegrin army is unanimous, and the reason is to obey your orders!"
Zhang Hong was very stiff and made it from the wooden board, there was no trace of blood in his face, his eyes were weak, he looked at Zhou Tai, and a deep voice sounded: "Please." Be sure to get us out! ”
When Zhou Tai heard this, his eyes moved slightly, with a hint of hope, and gently swept over the generals of the Black Mountain Army below.
The snake can't do without a head, and the army can't win without a general.
It's not that he Zhou Tai doesn't want the final word on the power of the main general, but these are the Montenegrin army. Zhang Yan's subordinates, although they have joined the state of Wu, must have a transition period.
Zhang Hong, whom he replaced, became the backbone, but if he wanted to order them, he was still a little hot.
If he forcibly controls it, it may end up being a mutiny of the Montenegrin Army, and the gains outweigh the losses, but if the main general Zhang Hong takes the initiative to give way and hand over the rights of the main general. That's a different story.
"General Zhou, you don't have to look at us, our Montenegrin army is all big and coarse, and we don't think so carefully, now we really have no choice, General Zhang Hong is willing to hand over Montenegro to you."
A Montenegrin general looked at Zhou Tai, and saw his doubts, and a decisive light flowed into his eyes. Immediately whispered: "You just take an idea, we believe in General Zhang Hong." I also believe in you, we all listen to you, whatever you say, you can fight, as long as you can let the people and villagers go out, Lao Tzu's life can be lost! ”
Rough words. But it's straightforward.
"Yes, General Zhou, we listen to you, you can fight how you say!"
The Black Mountain generals looked at each other silently. Then he looked at Zhou Tai with the same gaze and said firmly.
"Good!"
Zhou Tai's calm face showed a touch of joy, his eyes burst with a touch of essence, he stood up, looked at everyone sincerely, and said firmly: "Zhou is not talented, but no matter what, he will definitely take Er and wait to kill Le Cheng and resist Wu Guo." ”
"Kill Lecheng!"
"Kill Lecheng!"
When the soldiers heard this voice, their expressions were slightly shocked, and Zhou Tai, whose face was firm, was filled with a strong fighting spirit in the tent.
"General!"
At this time, a personal soldier beside Zhou Tian opened the big tent from the outside, walked out quickly, and whispered a sentence in his ear: "The prince has an order, today and tomorrow are not allowed to attack, recuperate, tomorrow night, the third watch, the east and west attack, attack Lecheng, and break it with one blow!" ”
"What? The prince is here? ”
When Zhou Tai heard this, a bright light flashed in his eyes, and he looked at his own soldiers deadly.
"Yes, the prince with five thousand elite soldiers, is already on the way, the news from the Jinyi guard, he will lead the troops from Chengping, directly to the east gate of Lecheng."
The guard nodded and said in a low voice.
"Good!"
Zhou Tai was overjoyed, raised his head, looked at the generals of the Black Mountain Army, and said loudly: "Since you have listened to so-and-so, so-and-so is not hypocritical, all listen to the order, the whole army will rest for two days, recuperate, and tomorrow night, the whole army will attack, and break through Lecheng in one fell swoop, if you don't break Lecheng, you won't return!" ”
"If you don't break the music, you won't return!"
Although everyone didn't hear what the guards said, the joy on Zhou Tai's face couldn't hide from them, Zhou Tai's confidence also drove their confidence.
Following.
The sun's rays were a little faint, like a piece of gold, scattered in Lecheng City.
In the city, Gao Ming and Yuan Li reported to Han Meng about the situation in Hejian at the county office, but they were directly criticized by Han Meng's violent temper, picking bones in the egg, and making him say that this matter was incompetent.
Han Meng was defeated by Zhou Tai's hands yesterday, and he couldn't defeat the Black Mountain Yellow Turban in one fell swoop, and he was forced to stay in the city, so naturally he was angry, and now he could only sprinkle it on the two of them.
Of course, Gao Ming and Yuan Li are also civil and military officials in a county after all, and Han Meng didn't dare to go too far, but after reprimanding the two, he vented and vented, and then the dove occupied the magpie's nest, occupied the county guard's mansion, and drove the two of them out.
"This General Han is really hard to serve!"
At the gate of the county guard's mansion, the two of them walked out bitterly, and Yuan Li, the captain, looked up at the Hejian county soldiers who had been replaced by fierce and vicious cavalry, guarding the county guard's mansion, and couldn't help but pout, and said coldly.
"Huh!"
Gao Ming smiled faintly, but he didn't care too much, and said: "We still have to rely on him to support Le Cheng without losing it, don't worry too much, let's go to the county government mansion first to deal with it for a while." ”
"Hmph, isn't he Han Meng just relying on the general Ju Yi? What's the big deal? ”
There was a trace of indignation in Yuan Li's eyes, and he said coldly: "People who don't know, do you still think that General Juyi is more powerful than the king?" ”
"Captain Yuan, be cautious!"
When Gao Ming heard this, a strange light crossed his pupils, and he hurriedly whispered.
In the Jin Kingdom, Ju Yi was a great general, and he established a unique prestige in the Jin army from the Battle of Jieqiao, and even surpassed the reputation of the king Yuan Shao in the army.
Moreover, Ju Yi's temper is upright, and he has recklessly contradicted Yuan Shao in the court several times, so a rumor has gradually formed in today's Jin Kingdom.
Monarchs and ministers are at odds.
This rumor was originally only a few signs among some high-level officials, but with the intervention of Jinyi Wei and ghost pawns, it has covered the entire Jin Kingdom.
"Say so!"
Yuan Li, as a member of the Yuan clan, even though he is separated from Yuan Shao by n generations, is still proud of his royal family's children, and naturally he can't get used to Yuan Shao's Ju Yi, who has repeatedly contradicted him: "The sky of the Jin Kingdom is the heaven of the king, and it is the heaven of our Yuan family, can he turn the sky over with just one Ju Yi?" ”
When Gao Ming heard this, he looked around, quickly pulled him to a corner, scolded him in a low voice, and said: "Yuan Duwei, the matter of the king and the general, the general's arrogance is the general's business, he is the general, the head of the army, not something we can discuss, this is not something we can talk about, if it spreads, someone who is interested will listen to it, and I will refer to you in the court, how are you good?" ”
When Yuan Li heard this, he was a little indignant at first, but when he thought about it suddenly, he came back to his senses a little, looked around, and broke out in a cold sweat.
The affairs of the king and the general are never something that he can discuss as a small lieutenant.
If someone heard this, it would be justified as a deliberate discord, Yuan Shao listened to it and cut off his head.
"Thank you for the reminder!"
Yuan Li hurriedly surrendered his hand to Gao Ming.
"You're welcome."
Damn, his reaction is so fast, he can't even add fuel and vinegar to the stimulation.
Gao Ming's face twitched involuntarily, but he quickly recovered, and said lightly: "Be cautious in the future, you go and see the city gate, General Han put our two thousand county soldiers in the east city gate, we must guard it!" ”
"Lord County Guard, rest assured, now the Black Mountain Army is at the West City Gate, the scouts are staring, the East City Gate is empty, how can there be a loss!" Yuan Li nodded and said loudly.
"It's better to be careful!"
Gao Ming's eyes flashed, and there was a light that Yuan Li couldn't understand.
Are there no enemies?
Hehe, it's just not now, and soon it's coming
