Jicheng, show relatives, across the river.

The Weishui that flows through the middle is the first line of fire set by Han Sui.

This is the upper reaches of Weishui, the widest part of the river, only 30 zhang, the narrowest place, only more than 10 zhang. It seems to be inferior to the moat, but the water flow is turbulent, and it is not easy to cross the river.

Pang De led the vanguard cavalry to gallop all the way, sweeping away the ghosts along the road, and soon reached the north bank of Weishui.

"General!" A scout came to report: "The Weishui water is turbulent, there is a large camp set up by the enemy on the opposite bank, and there are wooden stakes and iron cables in the river to block it, how to cross the river, please decide to the general!" ”

Pound sat on his war horse and looked up.

But in the distance, there is a large camp on the south bank of Weishui, the whole of which is on the riverbank, but part of it, extends into the river. This large battalion stretches along the river, I don't know how long, and there are many people in it, and there are not a few soldiers.

I also saw that the high and low in the river are wooden piles, and there are iron cables and sundries connected between them, and there are many obstacles, if it is a bamboo raft and wooden boat, it will not work, and it is difficult to cross the river at all.

Pang De thought for a moment and ordered: "Send two teams of light horsemen to explore the upstream and downstream for ten miles!" ”

"Whoa!"

Then Pound sent a group of cavalry to the bank of the river, and before he could get close, there were flying arrows from the opposite bank. The cavalry had no choice but to retreat.

The river here is not wide, only about 20 zhang, which is about 50 paces away, and the two sides can shoot across the river.

Frowning for a moment, Pang De sent back all the things here, through the blue birds, in detail, and immediately led the army to retreat half a mile and pressed it down

said that Li Zheng received Pang De's message, and couldn't help frowning, and took the Tao with Xun You and Jia Xu.

Xun and Jia thought for a moment, and Xun Yu said first: "Lord, it is expected that Han Sui is well guarded. Pound's vanguard army was all cavalry, and it was inconvenient to cross the river, and when the follow-up infantry arrived, he would see the situation and make a decision. ”

Jia Xu also bowed slightly, and said: "With the excellent equipment of our army, it is not difficult to cross the river!" ”

Li Zheng nodded slowly: "The two military advisors are reasonable. ”

The army under his command is well-equipped, and even if he loses some men and horses, he can cross the Weishui River. The upper reaches of the Weishui River in front of you are not wide after all.

With a wave of his hand, Li Zheng made the army under his command speed up and headed towards Weishui

On the south bank of Weishui, the general of the big battalion here is Yan Xing.

Han Sui's generals were the most popular. This first line of fire, Han Sui entrusted it to Yan Xing.

Yan Xing stood on a rock by the river, looking at the enemy troops on the north bank, and a cold light sparkled in his eyes. The ugly burns on his face made him look extremely hideous.

If you want to talk about hatred for Li Zheng, Han Sui is the first, followed by Yan Xing.

At the beginning, Yan Xing led the army to pursue Li Zheng, but not only was it fruitless, but he was almost burned to death by fire. If he died, it would be a hundred, but it was not just luck or misfortune, he escaped with his life, but his face was ruined!

Damaging his prestige and ruining his appearance, this is not a small blow to Yan Xing.

What made him even more uncomfortable was that the thief, who only had more than 100 people under his command, suddenly turned over and became the general of Zhenxi in a short period of time!

Jealous! Resentment!

eroded his heart all the time, making him eager to cut Li Zheng with a thousand knives!

"This time, I'll see how you cross the river!"

Yan Xing gritted his teeth.

"Pass my general order, all troops and horses are on strict alert, if any enemy army approaches the river bank, immediately release arrows and shoot them to death!"

"Whoa!"

At noon, Li Zheng led the army to arrive.

Pang De hurriedly stepped forward, turned over and dismounted, hugged his fists and said: "Lord, the enemy camp on the south bank stretches for five or six miles, and I am afraid that there are not forty or fifty thousand soldiers and horses among them. It was heavily guarded, and the last general was forced back by the rain of arrows after many attempts. ”

Li Zheng bowed his head slightly and asked, "Upstream and downstream, is there a better place to cross the river?" ”

Pang De shook his head and said: "This section is the smoothest river channel in the nearby Weishui River, the upstream and downstream are turbulent, and the coastal terrain is steep, so it is impossible to cross the river!" ”

Li Zheng pondered for a moment, and said to Xun You and Jia Xu on the side: "It seems that I can only attack!" ”

Xun You said: "It can only be like this - if the war starts in winter, it doesn't matter, but at the moment it can only be attacked." ”

The weather is cold in winter, not to mention the Weishui, and even the big rivers have to be frozen. Therefore, it has always been necessary to fight in the south, and choose winter to wait until the river freezes, so that it is convenient to cross the river.

Li Zheng shook his head. No one knows why he was so eager to use troops against Han Sui. Only Li Zheng himself knew in his heart that Emperor Ling collapsed, the new emperor ascended the throne, and then the general died, and the ten permanent servants were in chaos, and then Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, just in these few months.

After Dong Zhuo takes power, he will definitely not tolerate the situation of the Liangzhou family dominating, and would rather see the two tigers fight. If by then, Li Zheng has not yet dealt with Han Sui, he will need to face the huge pressure brought by Dong Zhuo and the power of the imperial court!

Therefore, it is necessary to completely occupy Liangzhou before Dong Zhuo becomes a leader.

At that time, no matter what Dong Zhuo does, it will be difficult to shake Li Zheng's position in Liangzhou. On the contrary, Dong Zhuo had to give Li Zheng a good confession, so as not to let Li Zheng give him a knife from behind.

However, all of them cannot be announced to the public. This kind of accurate prediction of the future, Li Zheng thinks, is more mysterious than the system, and it is good to know it yourself.

"I can't wait until then." Li Zheng's face was indifferent, and he said, "Let the army rest for a while, and then cross the river!" ”

"Whoa!"

The generals on the side bowed their heads together.

Half an hour later, the soldiers were fed, the horses were drunk, the army was rested, and tens of thousands of horses were assembled.

Under the leadership of the generals, all branches of the armed forces formed a phalanx and were in good order. Nearly 100,000 war horses neighed endlessly, and only tens of thousands of troops were solemn and silent.

Jia Xu looked at the wooden piles, iron cables and sundries on the river, suddenly smiled, and said, "Lord, look at the wooden stakes and iron cables, is it the enemy's preparation for us to cross the river?!" ”

Li Zheng was stunned for a moment, his mind turned, and he laughed at the same time as Xun You.

"Yes, yes, exactly!" Xun You laughed and said: "Erect a wooden stake in the middle of the river, connect the iron cable, and just put a wooden plank on it to cross the river!" ”

"So," Li Zheng glanced at the generals: "Who wants to go first?!" ”

"The last general is willing to be the first!"

The three generals of White Wolf, Nuro and Pound rode out together, impassioned.

Li Zheng's gaze swept over the three of them, and he groaned slightly. In his opinion, Pang De, who is the most outstanding in martial arts, is naturally the best candidate to become a general.

But seeing the longing eyes of the white wolf and Nuro, Li Zheng couldn't help but hesitate.

These two people followed him early, not to mention their achievements over the years, but they were also conscientious

"Lord, the general died in a hundred battles, Nuro and I think we are not as good as Pang Lingming, but the two of us are not afraid of death! Lord, let me wait to be the first to come! ”

Just thinking about it, he saw that the white wolf's face was flushed, and he was extremely excited.

Nuro's gaze was determined, and his face tense.

Li Zheng slowly bowed his head, the general died in a hundred battles, and they couldn't be prevented from going to the battlefield because they didn't have enough martial arts. This is the greatest insult to the generals!

"Good!" Li Zheng gritted his teeth and shouted: "White wolf, Nuro, this general ordered you two to be the first generals, lead 5,000 heavy armored spearmen, cross the river and build a bridge!" ”

"Thank you, lord!"

The two of them shouted and turned away!

"Pound!"

"The last general!"

"Order you to lead three hundred green armor war cavalry and one thousand two wolf cavalry, and wait until the two white wolf Nuro build a bridge, cross the river immediately, and tear open the enemy camp for me!"

"Whoa!"

"Xun You!"

"Your Majesty is here!"

"Order you to command the light step archers on your behalf, suppress the archers on the opposite bank for me, and create conditions for crossing the river!"

"Your Majesty obeys!"

"Jia Xu!"

"Your Majesty is here!"

"And follow General Ben's side and serve me as a staff officer!"

"Your Majesty obeys."

On the south bank, the camp of the Han Sui army.

"Crossing the river, crossing the river!"

Seeing that on the other side of the river, the white wolf Nuro and the two led 5,000 heavily armored spearmen, kicking up billowing dust and coming towards the river bank with great momentum, immediately, the camp was boiling.

"Attention archers, when the enemy army is within a hundred paces, immediately release my arrows!"

Yan Xing's face was fierce.

"Whoa!"

Airplanes!!!!

Suddenly, there was a violent tremor in the air, as if all the bee colonies in the world were gathered together! A dense rain of arrows like dark clouds came from the north shore!

"Sword and shield soldiers put up shields, quickly put up shields!"

"Crossbowmen return fire, return fire!"

Yan Xing's face changed, and he was extremely gloomy. He never expected that the enemy archers, who were two hundred and fifty paces away, would release their arrows at this time!

The soldiers at the front of the battalion, who had not yet had time to prepare, were immediately dealt a terrible blow.

In an instant, a series of screams resounded in the sky!

Snatch Snatch !!

An all-metal arrow with unrivalled penetration. In the ultra-long-distance range of the strong attack produced by the system, a part of Yan Xing's camp protruding from the surface of the river turned into a hedgehog almost in an instant!

I don't know how many sword and shield men and archers died under this wave of arrows. The front of the battalion along the river was cleaned by a rain of arrows, the dead and wounded were not counted, and the remnants of the soldiers could not even raise their heads, let alone fight back!

However, the rain of arrows still doesn't stop!

Then, on the other side of the river, the army led by the white wolf and Nuro crossed the river first, also carrying wooden planks and plunging into the Weishui!

"Cross the river! Crossing! ”

The white wolf shouted, and the huge scimitar in his hand reflected the sunlight and shone brightly: "The brothers of the light step archers suppressed the enemy crossbowmen for us, brothers, crossing the river is at this time!" Rush to Lao Tzu! ”

"Cross the river!"

Orr, the drums are beating loudly. In the sound of the earth-shattering war drums, the blood of the five thousand heavily armored spearmen was boiling! The 2,500 men led by the white wolf erected spears on the side to protect them, and the 2,500 men of Nuro all carried wide and heavy planks and began to build bridges!

Bang bang bang!

Thick planks were attached to the stakes attached to the iron cables, and quickly paved towards the opposite bank.

On the other side, Yan Xing saw that it was not a way.

If it has been suppressed by Li Zheng's archers, then it will not be able to prevent Li Zheng's infantry from crossing the river at all, so that when the Banqiao is built, this line of fire will be broken!

At this time, Yan Xing hated himself extremely much, why did he come up with a stupid way to erect a wooden stake in the river and connect the iron rope at that time!

"I'm such a stupid guy!"

Yan Xing gritted his teeth and slapped himself in the face, while not daring to slack off, he hurriedly ordered his sword and shield hands to move forward quickly, and he must immediately occupy the front of the camp. At the same time, the crossbowmen were ordered to hide behind the sword and shield men and return fire.
