Chapter 046: The Battle Tide Changes
After Hou Daqi hurriedly came, they found that Zhang Bao had already taken the county office, and they stood in place one by one and smirked. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Seeing this, Zhang Bao smiled slightly and said, "What are you happy about?" What is there to be proud of killing a few ordinary soldiers! It's so much more boring than last time! Hou Da, you go and inform Su Taishou to come to the county office. ”
At this time, Su Binghe stayed with two hundred soldiers in the house of an old man surnamed Zhang, a wealthy family in Tugu City, and he made the county government look like he had fled with Zhang Bao's army, which made Zhang He not have the slightest suspicion at all.
After dawn, Su Binghe heard the sound of Zhang He's army leaving, and he secretly congratulated himself in his heart that he had bet on the right treasure. Then he waited anxiously for Zhang Bao's message. Because Zhang Bao ordered him to wait for the notice, he was not allowed to lead the army around, for fear of being killed by mistake.
To be honest, Su Binghe was still very worried at this time, he really doubted the ability of Zhang Bao's forty-odd people. It is impossible for Zhang He not to stay in Tugu City, at least 500 people. Su Binghe was really worried that Zhang Bao would fail because of the big support.
"Squeak..., Su Taishou! The Governor invites you to go to the county government to discuss the matter. When Su Binghe was restless, the gate of Zhang's house was pushed open, and Hou Da walked in and hugged Su Binghe, who was waiting in front of the door.
Su Binghe saw that Hou Da was still dressed as a Jizhou soldier, and asked cautiously: "Everything outside has been solved?" ”
Seeing this, Hou Da looked at his makeup and smiled: "Please rest assured, Su Taishou!" Those 500 are no match for us! Su Taishou should hurry up and go with me! Don't make adults wait too long. By the way, Su Taishou can order the soldiers here to take control of Tugu City immediately. And Su Taishou's subordinates must not fight with our brothers who have left everywhere, just change the guard. ”
When Su Binghe heard this, he first let out a long breath, and then waved his right hand and said, "Where is the captain of the city defense?" Quickly assemble the army, take control of the gates of Tugu City, and replace the special operations lords who remain there. ”
"Yes!" The captain behind Su Binghe bowed down to receive the order, and then hundreds of people took off their cloth robes at the same time, revealing their armor, picking up their respective weapons and helmets and leaving quickly.
After the team left, Su Binghe came to Hou Da with a smile and said, "Special Warfare Lord, please!" ”
Hou Da smiled slightly when he heard this: "Su Taishou is too polite!" ”
At that moment, Hou Da led the way, and Su Binghe took twenty guards to Taishou Mansion with Hou Da. By this time, all the special operators had returned.
When Su Binghe saw Zhang Bao, he hurriedly bowed down and hugged his fists and said, "Meet the lord." ”
Zhang Bao looked at Su Binghe and smiled: "Su Taishou, please take a seat!" This time, Su Taishou was able to successfully take Tugu City, and Su Taishou made a lot of contributions! Next, I will take my people to Dongpingling, and Tugu City will be handed over to Su Taishou. ”
When Su Binghe heard this, he got up and hugged his fists and said: "Lord, Dongpingling, as the seat of Jinan County, there must be more guards there than Tugu City, and I hope that the lord will think twice before acting." ”
Zhang Bao smiled when she heard this: "Binghe! You still don't have to worry about us! Seriously, I'm worried about whether you'll be able to hold Tugu City. In the unlikely event that the defeated army of Yiyi comes to attack the city, you must withstand the pressure. ”
Su Binghe smiled when he heard this: "Lord, please rest assured!" If Zhang He was really defeated in Lingcheng, then his subordinates would not dare to attack Tugu City. He would only take the remnants of the army and hurriedly bypass Tugu City to Dongpingling. ”
Zhang Bao thought about it when she heard this, and then nodded: "What Su Taishou said is reasonable!" But you still have to be prepared to defend and prevent Zhang He from storming Tugu City. ”
Su Binghe hugged his fists when he heard this: "Please rest assured, my subordinates will definitely do a good job of preparing for Tugu City." ”
Zhang Bao then got up and said goodbye to Su Binghe, took all the members of the special combat team, and rode the war horses of Zhang He's subordinates out of the east gate of Tugu City and headed towards Dongpingling.
Zhang Bao's forty-four people came to the west gate of Dongping Ling City in Jizhou soldier uniform, and the captain of the gate guard at the head of the city shouted: "Why are you waiting? ”
Hou Da heard this and replied: "General Zhang ordered us to go back to Jizhou to urge reinforcements, and we will enter the city to change horses and open the city gate quickly." ”
The colonel at the head of the city saw that there were only about forty people on the other side in broad daylight, and he also knew that Zhang He asked for help from Jizhou, so he did not doubt Hou Da's words at the moment, and ordered his subordinates to open the city gate.
After Zhang Bao's forty-four people entered the city gate, they immediately turned their faces. A series of crossbow arrows shot accurately into the throats of the Jizhou soldiers. In just three or two minutes, all the hundred people guarding the gate were eliminated. Then Zhang Bao took everyone to the other city gates.
When the four gates of Dongping Tomb City were all solved, Zhang Bao and his party once again solved the patrols in the city and came to the barracks in the city. After a fierce battle for half an hour, he killed the 300 soldiers who remained here.
At this time, the remaining 200 Jizhou troops in the city caused panic, and they ran or rode horses one by one, and quickly rushed to the various city gates. When they found the dead bodies everywhere, everyone involuntarily fled out of the city. As he fled, he shouted, "There are ghosts! There are ghosts in the city! ”
Zhang Bao ordered the special combat team to pursue the enemy independently, and all those who ran were killed, but those who rode horses fled from Dongping Lingcheng one after another. Forty or fifty people fled. Most fled in the direction of Jizhou, and four or five horsemen went to the direction of Tugucheng.
Seeing this, Zhang Bao sighed slightly, knowing that he couldn't move forward to Taixian anymore, and immediately said to Hou Dadao: "Hou Da, you quickly go to Tugu City to pass on the order, and let Su Taishou transfer five hundred soldiers and horses to you, and then you take them to Dongpingling as soon as possible." Ordered Su Taishou to recruit another 1,000 soldiers in Tugu City to assist him in defending the city. We're here waiting for your reinforcements. ”
"Subordinates take orders!" After receiving the order, Hou Da quickly rode out of the city and left in the dust.
Zhang Bao ordered Hou Er and others to divide into four groups to guard the four gates of Dongpingling City. As for the city, leave it alone for the time being. Because of the war, most of the people stayed at home, and Zhang Bao was not worried about what would happen to them.
At dinner, Zhang Bao personally brought meat and wine to the brothers at the four city gates.
Fortunately, not long after dark, Hou Da arrived with five hundred soldiers. After Zhang Bao had served the soldiers with good wine and meat, he divided them into five groups, each group of 100 people. The first four groups went to the four gates to defend, and the remaining 100 people divided into three teams to patrol the city. During this period, everyone can take turns to rest.
Hou Da not only brought manpower, but also brought a piece of news: the five cavalry who fled from Dongpingling to the direction of Tugu City were all shot by Su Taishou's people.
Zhang Bao laughed when he heard this: "Hahaha......, this guy Zhang He has been awesome for a while, and now it's his turn to suffer!" Let the brothers have a good rest tonight, and tomorrow we will find an opportunity to capture Zhang He alive. ”
Hou Da heard the words and took the order and left.
Outside Yu Lingcheng, as soon as it got dark, Zhang He ordered 10,000 people to forcibly attack the city. At this time, Yu Lingcheng was reflected by torches as if it were daytime. The city was constantly crowded with people.
The first 10,000 men attacked for an hour and then retreated. Zhang He then ordered the second 10,000-person team to go up. After counting, the first 10,000 people actually injured half of the people. Nearly five thousand people died. After Zhang He learned the news, his face was gloomy and he was able to drip water.
After another hour, the second 10,000-man team was defeated. Zhang He once again ordered all the remaining 15,000 people to go up. This time, the second team of 10,000 people that Zhang He withdrew from was less than 4,000 people, and more than 6,000 people were killed.
The generals who got the news said to Zhang He: "General, we can't attack anymore!" Let's go back to Tugu City and wait for help, shall we? In just two hours, we lost more than 10,000 people, and we can't afford to lose! ”
"Yes, General! We're less than 25,000 left! Another general shouted.
Hearing this, Zhang He pulled out his saber and thrust it into the ground in front of him: "Shut up for me!" You only see our losses, is it good for Zhang Bao on the head of the city? We lost 10,000 people, and Zhang Bao and they lost a few thousand people at the very least? How many soldiers do they have left now? What do we have to be afraid of? You all give me a siege! Go on! Go on! Whoever doesn't go I'll kill whom! ”
Zhang He glared and shouted, and the generals in the account bit their lips one by one when they heard this, and went out to attack the city. Obviously, everyone agrees with Zhang He's point of view. Because all the generals knew in their hearts that Zhang Bao's army was not familiar with night battles.
However, in just half an hour, a bloody general rushed into the big tent and shouted to Zhang He: "General, General Quan, they are all dead in battle!" There's only one person left! More than half of the siege army was killed or wounded, and it was hoped that the general would make a decision as soon as possible. ”
Zhang He got up in shock when he heard this: "Order the three armies, except for the 1,000 defenders who stayed in the camp, all those who can stand will attack the city with me, and they must take Yu Ling City before dawn." ”
"General! The Zhang Bao army at the head of the city is still very strong! I hope the general thinks twice! ”
Zhang He looked at the brother who was covered in blood, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder and said, "You stay to guard the camp, and the others go with me!" ”
After Zhang He finished speaking, he left with his personal guards. He stayed in armor all night.
Chen Gong at the head of the city was also bleeding at this time. The 12,000 elites who managed to survive have now lost 8,000 people, and only 4,000 people are still defending the city. Although Hua Xiong's 2,000 cavalry and his own 2,000 cavalry were reserves, Chen Gong knew that he couldn't move yet.
Suddenly, Chen Gong saw nearly 10,000 people rushing out of Zhang He's camp again. At that moment, he excitedly shouted to Hua Xiong in the city: "General Hua, the time has come, quickly lead four thousand cavalry out of the east gate to attack Zhang He's camp, and then chase and kill Zhang He's deserting army." ”
Hua Xiong, who had been waiting under the city for a long time, bowed firmly to Chen Gong when he heard this, and then rode to the east gate alone, where four thousand cavalry also waited for half a night.
