Chapter 325: Zhao Ang retreated

Zhang Wei and Huang Zhong confronted each other under the city for more than ten days, and both sides were holding their troops and waiting to see what happened, except for sending scouts and meticulous work to probe each other's intelligence, there was no large-scale contact battle.

On this day, Huang Zhong had just finished inspecting the defense of the camp, Xu Shu came to find Huang Zhong, his face was extremely haggard and anxious, and he didn't talk about it after meeting, but went straight to the point: "General Qiyu, it's approaching August, the autumn rain is continuous, the roads are muddy, and our army's grain and grass can't be helped, and the grain and grass in the camp can only pay for the army's rations for two days!" ”

As the saying goes, people live on food, and without food, not only can they not survive, they can't do anything. When the two armies fight against each other, only when the officers and men are well fed can they have the strength to fight against the enemy. If an army starves due to lack of food, it is impossible to win a war. It can be seen that food is the indispensable and primary material condition for the war to be waged and to be won.

So as soon as Xu Shu's words fell, some soldiers around them immediately surrounded them, pointing at the two of them, and they didn't know what to talk about.

Huang Zhong's smiling face, which was still warm just now, instantly became unusually blue, glanced around at the soldiers who came up, and shouted: "What are you looking at, give me another patrol!" ”

All the soldiers, you look at me, I look at you, but they didn't carry out Huang Zhong's orders, and after a while, an older soldier stepped forward and said to Huang Zhong without humility or arrogance: "Dare to ask the general, is it as Xu Senjun said, we really don't have much food?" ”

Huang Zhong raised his eyebrows: "The general can clearly tell you that our army's grain and grass are enough for everyone to eat for a month, in this way, do you understand?" ”

The soldier's body shook, and then turned his head to Xu Shu and asked: "Xu joins the army, dare to ask if the grain and grass are really not enough to deal with the battalions?" ”

"There is not much food and grass left. We have to fix this, or we're going to starve! ”

Xu Shu stroked his beard, lowered his head and pondered for a while, when he raised his head again to look at Huang Zhong, Huang Zhong saw extremely dangerous danger in his eyes for a moment, but Xu Shu was not afraid. Facing Huang Zhong's warning eyes, Xu Shu threw off his clothes and said righteously.

Boom, Xu Shu's words are like a spring thunder, exploding in everyone's heads, as the saying goes, the army has not moved, the grain and grass go first, this is the only way to win the battle in history. There is not enough food and grass, the defense is unstable and cannot fight, and the soldiers can't eat enough to fight, so it can be seen that the role of grain and grass in the war is very huge, so the soldiers got Xu Shu's affirmative answer, and they looked at Huang Zhong angrily at the moment.

"General. We've been with you for so long, and we've always respected you. How can you lie to us? ”

"Yes, yes, there is no food and grass in the camp now, how can you let us live!"

"I can't eat, what kind of war are I fighting, I'm not fighting, I'm going home!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€¦β€

Huang Zhong's face instantly turned unusually blue. His teeth were gritted, and there was an uncontrollable anger flashing in his eyes, like an enraged lion, looking at the chattering soldiers and the slightly interested Xu Shu, Huang Zhong shouted: "Where is the knife and axe hand?" Take down Xu Shu and these unknown soldiers for me! ”

With Huang Zhong snorting violently. The knife and axe men standing outside the big tent of the Chinese army rushed forward, kicked Xu Shu and those chattering soldiers to the ground, and immediately took out the rope and tied them up in minutes!

"We don't accept it, General Huang, what are you fighting to arrest people!"

"That's right, you don't let us have enough to eat, and you want to arrest us, we don't accept it!"

"Huang Zhong, you old horseman, you dare to take me, I want to sue you in front of the lord!" Xu Shu roared angrily, and the sound rolled like heavy thunder, spreading far and wide.

Huang Zhong's behavior immediately aroused the anger of the soldiers, and they immediately rolled and struggled on the ground, trying to break free from the swords and axes.

Such a scene made more and more soldiers surround them, thinking that the soldiers on the ground had rebelled against military law, so they all had the intention of watching the excitement and pointing at the people on the ground, but with the spread of true thoughts, looking at this scene, the angry soldiers suddenly burst open the embankment like a flood that filled the river trough, roared, and poured into the camp unstoppably.

"Get out of the way, General Xu Huang is here!"

In the chaotic crowd, I don't know who shouted, and then I saw a wide avenue quickly dodged in the chaos, Xu Huang's dignified body walked in, looked at the soldiers and Xu Shu with dirty faces, and looked up and asked Huang Zhong: "General Hansheng, what's going on?" ”

Huang Zhong stared at those soldiers viciously, wanting to explain this matter, but before he could say it, Xu Shu, who was on the ground, took the lead in shouting: "General Xu Huang, this Huang Zhong relied on his oldest qualifications and the highest military merits, took us down indiscriminately, and sentenced us to military law, dare to ask General Huang, what military law did we commit?" ”

Huang Zhongjian stepped forward, kicked Xu Shu to the ground again, pointed at him and scolded: "Disturb the morale of the army, isn't this enough?" Come on, pull me down and cut it down! ”

Xu Hu waved his hand: "Slow, general, what can't we talk about well?" If you have to use a knife or a gun, in my opinion, let's keep it in the account, right? ”

Huang Zhong took a deep breath to calm down his mood, and immediately snorted coldly, agreeing with Xu Huang's suggestion.

But as soon as the soldier untied Xu Shu from the rope, he rushed forward, shook his arms, and grabbed Huang Zhong's throat, but Huang Zhong's movements were also quite fast, showing that in addition to the agility he should have, under Xu Shu's attack at such a close range, he was able to block and parry with ease, and in these few breaths, it was enough for the ten armored guards around him to rush in, and ten cold blades were added, Xu Shu had to stop and be captured.

"Huang Zhong, you old horseman, I will never die with you!" Xu Shu was shocked and angry, and scolded each other.

"You are a hairless yellow-mouthed child, and you still want to fight with the old man? Isn't that a bit naΓ―ve? Huang Zhong sneered, and then straightened the head of his head, and found that his beard had lost three stems in the battle just now, and he was a little distressed.

"If the lord knows that you are dictatorial here, he will not spare you!" Xu Shu was a little panicked and had to show Lu Bu's signboard.

When Huang Zhong heard these two words, he was not moved in the slightest: "Outside, the military order is not affected, since the lord has asked me to be the main general, everything in this camp is up to me, you join the army one by one, and you actually disobey me?" Don't you want to live? ”

As soon as Huang Zhong's words were finished, he saw Zhao Ang push aside the crowd and strode up to Huang Zhong, with an angry look on his face: "Dare to ask General Huang, is there anything about me Zhao Ang that can't stand you?"

Huang Zhong frowned, stroked his gray beard, and denied Zhao Ang's words: "Naturally not!" ”

"Since there is not, why do the Bingzhou army eat good rice and good dishes, but the Xiliang army eats dregs, at first I didn't believe it, but I just went to the camp to check it, it turned out that what my account corporal said is true, you and the state army eat all Huang Cancan's rice, and we eat all rice porridge, and it is also a clear soup with little water, not sticky rotten rice porridge at all, dare to ask the general, what do you explain?"

Huang Zhong sneered: "I and the state army are all cavalry, you are all supplementary soldiers, you want to be full, okay, take military merits in exchange, as long as you can pay one head per person, I will ensure that you are full!" ”

Seeing Huang Zhong take it for granted, Zhao Ang's pent-up anger in the day erupted like a volcano, and he nodded at Huang Zhong at the moment, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay." That's what you said! ”

After Zhao Ang finished speaking, he pulled his neck and shouted: "Soldiers, since Huang Zhong doesn't treat us as human beings, there is no need for us to help him with the big tent, the soldiers of the Xiliang Army listen to my orders, cross the river, and go back to Chencang!" ”

With Zhao Ang's order, 20,000 Xiliang troops shouted, shouted, and followed Zhao Ang out of the Bingzhou camp and walked towards Hanshui.

Xu Huang was shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade Huang Zhong: "General, you can't let them go, otherwise we will be finished!" ”

Huang Zhong laughed, stroked his beard, and said nonchalantly: "Haha, I, Huang Zhong, have been fighting on the battlefield for many years, and when the arrows and stones are attacking, the horses are vertical and horizontal, as if they are in a no-man's land, even if Zhao Ang's 20,000 soldiers and horses are missing?" I have 10,000 iron horsemen in the state, and if he leaves, we can save our grain and grass! ”

Zhao Ang's walking body paused, turned his head to look at Huang Zhong, and showed a sneer: "Huang Zhong, I won't do what you want, without me, you just wait for defeat!" ”

After speaking, he waved his robe and led more than 20,000 soldiers to cross the Han River and retreat towards Chen Cangshan

"What you say is true? Is Zhao Ang really gone? ”

In the Hanzhong camp, Zhang Wei, who was drinking wine and eating pork, heard the report of the fine work, immediately threw away the chopsticks in his hand, got up and asked loudly, the joy in his tone was obvious.

One of the leaders in the fine work stood up, smiled flatteringly, held his head high, patted his chest and promised: "Exactly, I'm afraid I have crossed the Han River at this time!" After all, as a detailed work, the most dangerous existence when the two armies are fighting, if Zhang Wei can defeat Huang Zhong, they will obtain unparalleled combat exploits, and it is possible that they may not even be promoted to the third level.

"What the hell is going on, you tell me in detail!" , joining the army is not a fool, he can't make a combat strategy because of the careful one-sided words, then Huang Zhong is a long-known general, how can he make such a low-level mistake, so you must ask about the situation clearly, as the saying goes: soldiers are not tired of cheating, that's the truth,.
