Chapter 620: Attacking the West with False Paths (30)
The sudden shouting of killing outside the military tent made everyone startled. Just looking at the light trembling of the water waves in the wine buds, an experienced person can almost immediately deduce that the comer must be at least a thousand cavalrymen, and they have already entered the state of charging.
If it is in the case of daytime formation. To be honest, there are only more than a thousand soldiers and horses, even if it is a surprise attack, the people in the tent will not be too worried. When well prepared, at least everyone has a few ways to neutralize the threat before the cavalry engages. After all, the northerners are good at riding, and the southerners are good at boats, although the terrain of Yuzhang County is also flat, but the prerequisite for horses to charge long distances to exert maximum lethality, the terrain alone is far inferior to the Central Plains. That is to say, in the case of the absolute peak of the number of people, and the advantage of the opponent's cavalry is infinitely weakened, unless it is a fool, the ghost will use the cavalry charging method in the land of Jiangdong in addition to the long-distance travel to use the battle method. If you use it rashly, it will be pure and look for death!
But if the conditions are limited to night raids, it should be a different matter. In the past month, the "tacit understanding" between Cai Zhong's army and the defenders of Yuzhang has been reached, as well as inertial immunity to night movements. It is just a fluke that there are only more than 12,000 soldiers available in Yuzhang City, and it is expected that the other party will never act rashly, and make the rear unstable, rashly taking risks and causing the city to be in danger, so that Cai Zhong even if he has the intention to rectify, he also does not want to be burdened with the name of excessive interference in military affairs. And on several occasions the fears did not happen, and chose to remain silent. But now, the other party is really here.
For the allocation of troops in Yuzhang City. Among the nearly 40,000 besieging troops under Cai Zhong, it is not too difficult to detect. More than 9,000 Danyang infantry who came to help defend the city defended the city, 1,000 recruits from Wu County assisted in the defense, 1,000 Qin Xu's first camp guards, and the standing horses were estimated to be about 2,000 to 3,000. It is not difficult to judge who can form an offensive in the formation of an organization, that is, who will "visit" tonight.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! At the same time, the people in the tent were subconsciously stunned for a moment because of this sudden situation. The sudden outbreak of louder screams, shouts, and even screams outside the military tent made the scene more and more chaotic, and even the trend of such a riot in the front camp. Like the plague that spread after being infected, it spread extremely quickly towards the joint camp of our army for nearly twenty miles. The worst is now beyond control.
"What a good thing that is! How good is that? Listening to the louder and louder shouts outside the tent, almost affecting the entire battalion of his army, Cai Zhong, who knew that he was in a big deal this time, suddenly found that his strength to stand up seemed to be drained. He could only look at the generals in the tent who were also anxious to rectify the soldiers in the tent as if asking for help. Asked urgently. In the field, night attacks are the most fearful, and they often suffer incalculable losses. If one side lacks experience in dealing with the enemy, it is very easy for the enemy to provoke the danger of the camp roaring, and in the dark it will not distinguish between the enemy and the enemy, thus causing the whole army to be in chaos, and the end is extremely dangerous. Moreover, the night attack is not only the bearer of the hijacked camp who is in danger of being in turmoil. If the initiator is not well prepared, it is very likely that the troops are at an absolute disadvantage. Annihilated. Therefore, although this matter is easy to tighten, when it is really used, it has to be cautious. Cai Zhong in the end, although there are also two brushes, but this trip is just recommended by Cai Mao, come to Yuzhang gilded to increase seniority, the head-on battle can still be in a decent manner according to the military book, once encountering this unexpected situation, or in the soldier has long been because of the regular "harassment" for more than ten days in a row and the sense of defense has been greatly reduced, to let Cai Zhong come up with a charter in a short time, it is indeed difficult.
"Humph!" Just when Cai Zhong was at a loss, Jin Xuan hesitated, and the generals were at a loss for what to do, a cold snort that was originally very light suddenly came from the corner of the military tent, and in this scorching atmosphere, it was very abrupt.
"Who is it?!" Perhaps in the face of Yu Zhang's arrival, Cai Zhong and the generals in the account were in a panic and lost their sense of proportion. But in the military tent, there are all the main generals in the army who have attacked Yuzhang this time, so the meaning of this cold snort is not so friendly to everyone. Cai Zhong's face was already a little masterless, and he didn't know how to deal with this night attack that was completely different from his impression, and he turned from white to black, almost roaring in the direction of the source of the sound.
"In Yuzhang City, there are no more than 10,000 soldiers and horses when it is full! Even if the city is overwhelmed, it is not less than half of our army. Even if you come at night and take advantage of our army's unpreparedness, it's just a moment of luck! Although chaos is about to happen, and it is not easy to pacify 40,000 people, if as long as all of you here can restrain your own subordinates, what is the difficulty? I don't know the book of soldiers, but I also know that the reason why there is such a noise outside is largely due to the lack of soldiers, as long as you show up, there are thousands of soldiers, even if I wait for one person to spit, it is enough to wipe out! And why do you want to be a woman weeping here? Sitting in the corner of the military tent, Shamoko, the only one who had only said these words so far, looked at the various forms of the generals in the military tent, and could not tell whether it was a mockery or a suggestion in his tone.
"You! What do you think, you brute? The general hasn't spoken yet, so where will you speak? Seeing that the person who spoke turned out to be this Wuling Barbarian Shamoke, who had more than a quarter of the strength of the army under his command, the faces of the generals in the tent were a little unpleasant. Everyone here does not talk about the size of the ability, but since they can be sent by Liu Biao to the army to lead their respective departments, there is no fool, and they know that although Shamoke's words are unceremoniously, they are actually the most reasonable. It's a pity that Shamoke would be a colleague in the headquarters, but although he maintained the same treatment on the surface on weekdays, he was privately with this Wuling barbarian who never treated people well. This made Liu Biaojun's generals a little unbearable.
"Humph! I know what you Han people are thinking! You don't have to say these scenes to save face! Shamoke is not an ordinary barbarian, even if there are words in some words, Shamoke can also hear a different meaning, he can hear the shouting and killing outside the tent, and the chaotic noise is getting closer and closer, and he glanced at the pale-faced generals in the tent, and did not say anything, but said to Jin Xuan: "Jin Taishou, if you want to say that the battle between you and Lu Bujun is a victory or a defeat, in fact, there is no stake in the same." It's just that you invited food to help fight! I'm not here to be angry! That's it, no one else asks. I asked Jin Taishou you, in this situation, do you want some kind of soldiers to help? If we wait for the army, what benefits can we give? ”
"This ......," Shamoke's words Jin Xuan understood very well. Originally, Shamoke came to help in the war, but Jin Xuan used the increase or decrease in the trading volume of daily necessities exchanged with Wulingman to persuade Shamoke to send troops to help, but in fact, Jin Xuan actually did not give Shamoke any promises. Before, Shamoke didn't know what he was thinking about, but he agreed, which made Jin Xuan think that a barbarian was a barbarian, and it was easy to deceive. But now that something is coming, Shamoke said these words sideways, but he was taking the opportunity to draw a clear line! It's just that Jin Xuan is only Wuling Taishou after all, and he is an official appointed by Emperor Ling back then, not Liu Biao's lineage, if he may increase some trading volume casually on weekdays, he can also fool Shamoke, which was often the case before. But now, Shamoke has found the right time, and it is not up to Jin Xuan to call the shots when he says it at this time.
"General Shamoko don't have to worry! My father-in-law, Liu Yuanjun, has always admired heroes! Now he has great ambitions for the world, and he will never let the general help in vain! "Speaking of which, Cai Zhong is actually not familiar with Shamoke. Even if he knew that there were brute soldiers to help him this time, he basically mediated in the middle, and it can even be said that Cai Zhong and Sha Moke, the barbarian general, met this time, and counted them in the face. Cai Zhong, who was proud of the commander of Liu Biaojun's troops, if he hadn't also thought that there would be chaos in the army this time, and he could use the bullet to suppress the troops that were about to start a chaos in the shortest possible time, he might only have this relatively remote barbarian soldier under Shamoke. After Shamoke said that he seemed to take the opportunity to sit on the ground, Cai Zhong, who got the hint that Jin Xuan was almost blinking his eyelids and cramping, barely squeezed out a smile from his face, and said in a steady tone as much as possible.
"Humph! You don't have to be a general! Shamoke was not confused by Cai Zhong's fake and no longer fake Corporal Lixian's tone, and glanced at the generals of Liu Biaojun, who were angry by his own attitude, and casually arched his hand at Cai Zhong, and said: "Since I have accepted the covenant of Jin Taishou, this time I will help the general, and I will definitely make a difference!" We and other Wuling people have always been the same, and we will never be as different as you Han people. It's just that I hope that if I win by luck this time, I will ask General Cai Zhong to help introduce Liu Yuanjun, how about it!? ”
"Huh!? So...... So much better! Someone should be down! "Maybe I didn't think of the request of Shamoke, who was five big and three coarse, not to take the opportunity to extort benefits, but just to mention that he wanted to see Liu Biao? What are the requirements? The Wuling barbarians have a great reputation in Jingnan, but they don't have a reputation for being good. Shamo Kefei worked so hard and gave up such a good opportunity to rip off the bamboo, just to see Liu Biao, could it be that there were other attempts? But now, under the pressure of the increasingly chaotic voices, Cai Zhong can't think about Shamoke's true intentions. Immediately nodded and said.
"Good! You can restrain the headquarters by yourself, and watch a certain family meet that Qin Xu! Shamoko smiled hideously and turned away. (To be continued......)
