Chapter 104: One Step Ahead
The night breeze brought a touch of freshness to the bloody battlefield, and in the breeze, there was a hint of coolness, but it was just the right amount of coolness. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Yang Jun and Zhang Hua talked about it for half an hour in the big tent before laughing and parting, obviously, Yang Jun was very satisfied with Zhang Hua's strategy, in Yang's words, timely and effective.
That night, 16,000 soldiers under the leadership of Louvre and Wang Rong divided into two routes, the north road to Yuxian, and the northeast road to Nanyang.
Since they were all covert marches in the middle of the night, there was no news at all, and although the city was twice as vigilant as usual, it did not get any news.
The next day, as soon as the sky was hazy, the 10,000 sailors who swam on the Xiangshui River also anchored and headed south, hurrying to Xiangyang.
In the morning, Yang Jun was promoted to gather generals, and sent troops to Shangyong with great fanfare, although so, he also left 8,000 soldiers and horses as a reserve to guard against the sneak attack of Fangling.
"Not good! General Huang, this Jin army is heading west, I'm afraid it will be unfavorable to Shangyong! ”
When Zhang Yi saw this scene, he was shocked, but he calculated that the Jin army was preparing to attack Shangyong first when he saw that Fang Ling was in difficulty, and he thought that he planned to damage the morale of the Han army first.
Although Huang Chen was also a little anxious, he was more calm, and he did not immediately pursue, but just sent several scouts to inquire about the news of all parties, and by the way, to see the intentions of the Jin army.
"Tell the general, the latest signs of the activities of the brigade with more than 10,000 men and horses in the east of the original Jin army camp are afraid that it is just in the near future."
When the first team of scouts came to report, Huang Chen smiled calmly and said:
"It seems that the lord's plan has begun to work, and this Jin army is also panicking!"
Despite this, he admires Liu Chen very much, and he can let the Jin army follow at this time, and there is only Liu Chen who dares to take such a risk.
After that, the scouts who went further got the news of Xiangyang and Nanxiang from some channels, which made Huang Chen even more confused.
"General, now that the Jin army is advancing westward, it seems that it is about to reach Shangyong, and our army is not pursuing, but what are we waiting for?"
Although Zhang Yi has been fighting for many years, he is more suitable for that kind of head-on battle, and now this kind of intersection and confusion situation can only be seen by a few people Zhang Hua and Huang Chen.
"It's not that Chen is unwilling to send troops, but there are a lot of doubts in this, I'm afraid there is an ambush!"
Zhang Yi had been explained by Liu Chen to listen to Huang Chen in terms of strategy and tactics before, so although he was eager at this time, he had to listen to Huang Chen's command.
Huang Chen planned for a long time, while sending more scouts to the west to track, and at the same time quietly sent a cronie to Jingshan with a handwritten letter to Jingshan to find Liu Chen.
"Wait, General Huang Chong is very resourceful, and he has nearly 10,000 troops, and it is not without the strength of a battle, everything will be known in one day."
Speaking of Wen Yang's side, since the soldiers took Nanxiang without blood, Wen Yang commanded the soldiers to search all the important places in the city, and the gold, silver, grain, grass and equipment were all turned out.
However, Wen Yang remembered Liu Chen's explanation, but only changed some swords and weapons, and did not take a large package, and only took a certain amount of grain and grass to make three days of dry food for military use.
What's more, according to Liu Chen's explanation, Wen Yang scavenged all the gold and silver and hid it in a hidden place, and then came to get it later.
Of course, all this is just for the county order and a few other families, and the common people and businessmen are not guilty of any crime, of course, if any family does not open their eyes, Wen Yang does not mind punishing him.
In this way, Wenyang and the others occupied all the important places in Nanxiang in a grand manner, and then rested for a full night.
Wen Yang also knew that his whereabouts could not be hidden from Yang Jun, but he had already planned, and before dawn the next day, he raised troops to the north, and when the people found out that something was wrong, there was no shadow of the Han army.
"General, let's capture Nanxiang, why do we want to abandon it, this thousands of miles of attack, but where are we going?"
A partial general was very puzzled by Wen Yang's actions, the most important thing for the Three Kingdoms in the past two years was to attack the city and seize the land, in the former's view, this is a meritorious service, but Wen Yang is abandoned, which makes him a little depressed.
Wen Yang just smiled, there is such a thing as vision, you don't dare to fight to the death, this is a matter of the brain, but it can't be changed.
"Haha, that old guy Yang Jun must have sent reinforcements, but unfortunately, General Ben just shook a shot, now, he has to take the first step!"
These words made a few people around them a little enlightened, and more were still confused, but unfortunately no matter how much they asked, Wen Yang was silent.
Leaving Nanxiang in the north, on the west bank of Danshui, Wen Yang ordered the army to find a narrow and gentle area, and the army swam through the water and went straight to Jiaxia.
When the Jin army led by Wang Rong arrived in Yuxian the next day, Wenyang's army had already arrived at the city of Jiaxia, and the 5,000-strong army surrounded this small city about three meters high and five miles in radius.
The county commander is a son of a poor family, and he knows that the official position is not easy to obtain, and he has the heart to wait for help, but most of the soldiers and horses in the county town have been taken away by the county lieutenant, and only two thousand old and weak people are left to barely maintain law and order.
"Listen to the people in the city, this general is Wen Yang, the general of the Han Kingdom, and this general doesn't want any city, hurry up and send twenty stones of pig's dried meat to this general, otherwise don't blame this general for turning his face and attacking the city!"
In the face of the 2,000 county soldiers and more than 1,000 private soldiers in the city, Wen Yang's face did not change, and he pointed at Da Jian, showing unparalleled heroism and domineering, which actually made many soldiers more respectful.
"Bold enemy generals, the well water of my Great Jin Kingdom and Shu Kingdom does not violate the river water, you are so arrogant and invade the land of Jin Kingdom, my Heavenly Master will ask you for justice!"
The county commander was a righteous and awe-inspiring young man, and when he heard Wen Yang's words like a bandit, he was immediately furious and scolded him directly.
He said this, but he didn't notice the frown of the Yuan family patriarch next to him, obviously a little dissatisfied with the performance of the county order.
When Wen Yang heard this, a sharp light flashed in the tiger's eyes, and he waved his hand to take off the big bow he carried on horseback, and with a pestle, a sharp arrow flashed coldly, and flew directly over the city tower.
Sou...
Click!
In the blink of an eye, the arrow flew past the prefectural commander's cheek, knocking down the banner behind him, causing everyone in the city to be shocked.
Wen Yang Mian smiled and said loudly:
"Ben will declare again, I am Wen Yang, the general of the Great Han Kingdom, not the Shu Kingdom, if you dare to talk nonsense, you should be such a flag!"
Kill, kill, kill!
Suddenly, the five thousand Han troops roared like thunder, giving another blow to the city's already not very high morale, and even the 1,000 private soldiers began to panic.
The patriarch of the big family had the mentality of breaking the fortune and avoiding disasters, and at this time, the county magistrate was intimidated because he did not listen to him, which led to a great loss of prestige, which he was happy to see.
But he is also an old man, and seeing that the morale of the Jin army is not high, he hurriedly stood up and said:
"Yuan Chong, the patriarch of the Yuan family, welcomes your army to visit Jiaxia, in order to reward your army, I am willing to give ten stones of minced meat, and I hope that the general will not hurt the innocent, so as not to affect the friendship between our two countries."
Yuan Chong's Yuan family can be regarded as a branch of Yuan Shao's Yuan family, and after the fall of Yuan Shao, he barely laid a foundation under this Jia, and it is needless to say that he can serve as a speaker in such a place.
The meaning of Yuan Chong's words is very clear, this is a little bit of the heart of the people under my command, but it is not a robbery and a gift of both hands, and it is intended to give half less, so that the Jin State stands in an equal position.
In this way, Yuan Chong's prestige is naturally one thing and the other's strengths, and it is actually faintly overshadowing the county order.
Yuan Chong smiled faintly, in this way, not only does he not have to bear much property, but he profits from it, how can he not like it?
"Okay, since the head of the Yuan family is so well aware of the righteousness, this general has thanked the soldiers of the whole army here!"
Wen Yang also knew that Yuan Chong had these crooked intestines, but these were not what he should pay attention to at this time, besides, he could add some blockage to the Jin Kingdom, why not.
After that, Wen Yang took the ten stones of minced meat, immediately distributed it to the troops, and then set up troops on the road again, and the direction he went was not far from Nanyang!
Anlu, Jiangxia North County, Yang Ji received the wire report and the message from his brother Yang Jun, and knew that Wu Guo was also involved, so he immediately frowned, and kept pacing back and forth in the study.
"Wu Jun first sent 5,000 water divisions, its goal will definitely not be small, no matter where its plot is, it is the responsibility of General Zhennan, if it does not send troops to intercept at this time, the three counties of Jingbei have a business trip, and it will be difficult to escape the blame......"
Although Yang Ji thought so in his heart, his face was silent, his sharp eyes flashed from time to time, and his eight-foot majestic body was shrouded in majesty, and he looked like a person who had been in a high position for a long time.
"Is it Xiangyang or Jiangxia...... Or the general's soldiers? ”
Yang Ji muttered a few times, and then his eagle's eyes lit up, and he commanded to the outside world:
"Summons the order for the generals above to come to the hall to discuss matters!"
