Chapter 20 Ambush the Advance Attack on the enemy camp at night
History has always had a spring and autumn penmanship for the evaluation of characters, and Liu Kun has confirmed a lot after coming to Dahan, and summed up a characteristic;
Anyone who is loyal to the Han and does not surrender to Cao has a good historical evaluation, who called the power of the Cao family was finally taken away by the Sima family.
The more 'black' the Cao family is, the more it can highlight the orthodox status of the Sima family, Cao Cao has always been the image of a white-faced traitor in the play, but the real Cao Cao is a black dwarf.
Nanyang Taishou surnamed Qin Mingjie; At the beginning of the word, he was a native of Nanjun, Jingzhou.
In February of the first year of Zhongping, the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out. In March, Zhang Mancheng, the leader of the Yellow Turban Army in Nanyang County, Jingzhou, attacked and killed Taishou Chu Gong.
Qin Jie, the governor of Jiangxia, was ordered to succeed him as the Taishou of Nanyang County, responsible for the crusade against the Yellow Turban Army.
In June, Qin Jie and Xu Xuan, the assassin of Jingzhou, jointly attacked and defeated the Yellow Turban Army and beheaded Zhang Mancheng
Qin Jie's death was very strange, and two years later, Jiangxia soldier Zhao Ci rebelled and broke through six county towns to kill Qin Jie.
Qin Jie was once the captain of Jiangxia, and Zhao Ci was a Jiangxia soldier, what is the deep hatred between the two? caused Zhao Ci to break through six counties and kill Qin Jie?
But these don't care about Liu Kun's affairs, he is here to grab the credit, in June Qin Jie and Xu Xuan will kill Zhang Mancheng in Nanyang, Liu Kun is ready to grab this credit!
The battle between Nanyang Qinjie and the Yellow Turbans was at a disadvantage, and most of the county towns were occupied by the Yellow Turbans, leaving only a few southernmost counties such as Xinye, Suixian, and Huyang to resist the Yellow Turbans moving south.
Qin Jie and Xu Xuan are stationed in Xinye, and due to the lack of troops, they are currently barely able to protect themselves and are unable to attack!
Xinye County is based on Wanluo in the north, Jingxiang in the south, fertile fields for hundreds of miles, eight rivers competing for the stream, Wuhua Tianbao, outstanding people, worthy of the name of "North and South Holes, Zhongzhou Barrier"!
On June 3, Liu Kun led his troops to Xinye, and Qin and Xu learned that Liu Kun had come to exterminate the Nanyang Yellow Turban on an order, and expressed their great welcome.
Liu Kun observed Qin Jie, he did have the qualifications of a fierce general, he was eight feet tall, sensitive and fierce, and he walked like a tiger, at least he was also a first-class general.
Xu Xuan is not a simple civil official, he is wearing a battle armor at this time, and he looks quite majestic.
The two sides have each other's needs, each other has a good feeling, the sedan chair is carried by everyone, and the banquet is dispersed from noon to late at night, which can be described as the joy of the guests and hosts.
On the morning of June 6, the scouts reported that Zhang Mancheng and others gathered 50,000 Yellow Turban troops in Wancheng, with Sun Xia as the vanguard, and led 10,000 soldiers and horses to Xinye.
Xu Xuan proposed to defend the city, but Liu Kun did not agree, his subordinates were all cavalry, and it was too wasteful to defend the city, so he planned to go out of the city and fight with the Yellow Turbans.
There are not many Yellow Turban cavalry, Liu Kun can't run, it's much stronger than staying in the city, Qin Jie also thinks that there is a mobile team outside the city, and it's better to be each other's horns!
The terrain of Xinye County is flat, just suitable for the cavalry to gallop vertically and horizontally, scouts return, the Yellow Turban pioneer Sun Xia, led the troops just after Shuyang, into Xinye.
Liu Kun ambushed ten miles north of Xinye City, and Zhang Jaw and Wen Chou were ambushed on the left and right sides.
Guan Yu led an army of 1,000 people, chose to ambush the terrain twenty miles to the north, and after the yellow scarf, he ambushed on both sides of the road.
Zhang Fei led an army of 1,000 people and chose to ambush the terrain fifteen miles north, waiting for the Yellow Turban to pass. Ambushes on both sides of the road.
When Shen Shi, the dust rose in the distance, and Sun Xia led his troops to come.
Wen Chou led his troops straight to Sun Xia, Sun Xia saw that there were more than 1,000 cavalry, and sent the more majestic Hum Ha two generals around him to lead 3,000 troops to block the enemy.
Hum will be brave and brave, go straight to Wen Chou, the two horses intersect, Hum will be planted under the horse. Wen Chou didn't stop at all, went straight to Ha Jiang, and stabbed Ha Jiang under the horse.
Zhang Jaw led the army straight to Sun Xia, Liu Kun's soldiers were all in armor, and the weapons were sharp, Sun Xia's army did not have many cavalry, and when they saw that they could not resist the enemy, they led the army away.
How could the infantry outrun the cavalry, nearly half of them were stopped by the Han army, the Yellow Turban group of dragons was leaderless, and after the first person put down his weapons, the others surrendered one after another!
Sun Xia led half of the remnants of the army to run less than five miles, and there was a rain of arrows on the side of the road, and a red-faced and long-bearded general led a thousand people to gallop out, cutting off Sun Xia's troops by the waist, it was Guan Yu.
Sun Xia knew that he was in an ambush, and he didn't dare to fight, so he once again left more than 2,000 people who were cut off, and led more than 2,000 remnants of the army to run for their lives.
Five miles further, there was another rain of arrows, and more than 1,000 cavalry stood out, directly hitting Sun Xia's soldiers after hundreds of cavalry.
As the leader of the general, the leopard's head is ringed with eyes, the swallow jaw and tiger whiskers, and the spear is piercing, and only 2,000 pawns are killed in an instant.
Sun Xia was stunned and only brought back a few hundred cavalry? It will definitely be cut down by the divine envoy, rush!
Straight to Zhang Fei, Zhang Fei shouted, good come!
The sound was like a huge thunder, Xia Wensheng was shocked, was stabbed by Zhang Fei with a spear, turned over and fell off the horse and died.
Zhang Fei led the sergeant to chase and intercept the remnants of the yellow scarf! , 300 cavalry went to Sun Xia's footsteps, and only a few dozen cavalry escaped.
At the end of the battle, he killed three Yellow Turban generals, more than 1,000 soldiers, more than 7,000 prisoners, and 200 horses.
Liu Kun led the crowd to order the captives to be escorted to Xinye.
Zhang Mancheng's Yellow Turban Army had just arrived in Shuyang and was stationed in the county town.
The defeated army that escaped returned to Huayang and reported: "The Han army in our army is in ambush, Sun Xia and Hum Ha will be killed, and most of the soldiers have been captured alive. ”
Zhang Mancheng was furious when he got the news and summoned Zhao Hong. , wait for Han Zhong, Sun Zhong, and Liao Hua to discuss.
Zhao Hong said: "More than 10,000 people in Sun Xia were destroyed by the enemy, it can be seen that the enemy army is very elite, for safety, we should go back to Wancheng to defend it!" ”
Zhang Mancheng was furious and said: "Sun Xia Pifu is incompetent, how can I be like him!" ”
Zhao Hong said: "The art of war; Know each other and know yourself, and win all battles. If we wait to come out, in case the enemy army sneaks up on Wancheng, we will wait for the back road to be cut off!! ”
Zhang Mancheng said angrily: "What do you mean? ”
Han Zhong said: "I hope that the divine envoy will think twice, I didn't know that the Han army was so elite before, and we will attack Xinye for a long time, and I am not optimistic about it!" ”
Zhang Mancheng looked at Sun Zhong and said: "If Wancheng is lost, I will have no place to bury me when I die!" ”
Liao Hua said: "If our army retreats without a fight, it will definitely hit the morale seriously, I am willing to go to war with the gods, and I will be this road for a while!" ”
"Good! Liao Hua went with me, and you led 10,000 horses back to defend Wancheng, and a certain self-led army of 30,000 to capture Xinye, and waited for a certain to level this road, and see what else you have to say! ”
The next day, Zhang Mancheng left the camp, and Han Zhong said: "Raise troops for the most jealous anger of the generals, and the gods will be brave and brave, but they are not suitable for being handsome!" ”
Sun Zhong said: "Brother Han is right, if the divine envoy fails, what will happen to us!" ”
Zhao Hong said: "The young horse in the south, the cavalry of Xinye, must be the elite sent by the imperial court, if the divine envoy cannot win, we should stick to Wancheng, gather all the nearby Yellow Turban forces, and discuss major matters together!" ”
"Good! Now our Yellow Turban Army is fighting on its own, and sooner or later it will be broken by each other! ”
Liu Kun got a report from the scout, and the Yellow Turban army was divided into two waves, one wave headed by Zhao Hong returned to defend Wancheng, and Zhang Mancheng and Liao Hua led an army of 30,000 to Xinye!
How did Liao Hua appear here? Liu Kun checked the information, and it turned out that Liao Hua was originally from Jingzhou, so it was not surprising that he appeared here.
Liu Kun originally planned to avoid the Yellow Turban army and sneak attack the empty Wancheng, but he didn't expect that the Yellow Turbans were not all mediocre!
Liu Kun sent scouts to continue to investigate, and the troops withdrew to Xinye, he was not ready to fight hard with the thieves, he was arrogant and proud, looking for fighters, and breaking the enemy in one fell swoop!
Zhang Mancheng marched for two days and camped ten miles north of Xinye, where Liu Kun's army ambushed Sun Xia.
Liao Hua said worriedly: "This place is a flat river, it is really not suitable for camping, what if someone attacks the camp at night?" ”
Zhang Mancheng said impatiently: "You are stupid, I have set up a secret post in the forest, if there is an army in Xinye, the secret post will warn!" ”
Liu Kun received a report from the scout; The yellow turban has set up a lot of secret sentinels in the roadside forest!
The first thing General Ben did when he attacked the camp was to remove the dark sentry, and it was not without benefit that he watched too many modern TV series.
It is not easy to find targets at night, so Liu Kun bought 100 infrared night vision goggles in reality, and filled 100 barrels of 100 barrels of 10 liters of gasoline at a gas station.
The next day, Zhang Mancheng's army came to the city to challenge, but Liu Kun avoided it and asked the soldiers to tell Zhang Mancheng that if he had the ability, he would come to attack the city.
Although Zhang Mancheng was angry, he was not stupid enough to attack the city directly, but ordered people to cut down trees and make siege equipment.
Liu Kun ordered to harass the yellow scarf eight times in one night, Zhang Fei when he was in Hai, Zhang Fei in Zi, Wen Chou in Chou, and Guan Yu in Yin.
At night, the Yellow Turban soldiers had just fallen asleep, and the signal of the secret sentry in the forest was issued, and Zhang Mancheng hurriedly ordered the troops to prepare for battle, and waited for half an hour, but did not see the enemy attack.
Scouts were sent to investigate and learned that the attacking army had retreated!
Zhang Mancheng ordered his subordinates to go back to sleep, and secretly laughed at the Han army's rabbits, who were so timid.
Just lying down, the sentry in the battalion returned, and the signal was raised again.
Zhang Mancheng gathered his troops again.
came eight times in one night, Zhang Mancheng did not rest for a moment, and the same was true for the soldiers, who had just fallen asleep and were awakened, and the siege battles of the next day were listless.
Zhang Mancheng gave the secret whistle a hard beating, and ordered the dark whistle to see it and report it again.
The next night was the same again, the soldiers were all tired, the assembly was grinding, and the defense was also constantly napping.
Eight times in one night, in order to show that there were a lot of people attacking, when Liu Kun sent out each army, there were 3,000 Qin Jie's soldiers behind him!
On the third day, many of Zhang Mancheng's soldiers lined up with their eyes closed, and Zhang Mancheng's eyes were even red, and he was full of anger, catching and scolding whom!
On the third day, the alarm rose again, and everyone saw that Zhang Mancheng, the envoy of God, did not get up, and they all thought that it was a tired plan of the enemy, and they took their soldiers back to sleep, and sure enough, no troops attacked.
After several times in a row, except for Liao Hua, no one was willing to get up.
Through the feint attack in the past few days, Zhang Jaw roughly figured out the location of the secret whistle, and Liu Kun ordered Zhang Jaw to lead more than 100 scouts and bring night vision goggles to cut off Zhang Mancheng's secret whistle.
A hundred soldiers carried gasoline and windproof lighters, and were specially responsible for setting fires!
Also inform Qin Jie, assemble troops, and prepare to capture prisoners!
At the end of the ugly hour, open the jaw to report; The Dark Sentinels have all been removed!
Liu Kun waved his hand and attacked!
