Chapter 162: Zhang Yan's plan

At noon, the sun rises high, and the heat emitted dispels the cold of early winter.

Chengyun County, Temporary Hussar General's Mansion, in the hall.

In this winter, charcoal fires were also placed in the hall to keep warm. However, now is the time to eat, and it will be hot when eating, so Zhang Shuang ordered the charcoal fire to be removed.

Soon after, a meal was served to a pro-soldier. Eating with Zhang Shuang were Chen Gong, Chen Deng, Dian Wei, and Zhou Cang. The two are figures like strategists, and Zhang Shuang's army has been recuperating since the beginning of the war. So Dian Wei and Zhou Cang are also idle and have nothing to do.

As soon as he was halfway through the meal, He Miao walked in from outside. This cargo left in a hurry, as if it was about to be reincarnated.

"Is it another lunch break??? How was it in the morning? Zhang Shuang asked while picking up a piece of duck meat and stuffing it into his mouth.

Nowadays, Zhang Shuang's status is rising day by day, and he can do whatever he wants. In terms of food, he is definitely the most capricious among the generals of the entire army.

One word comforting.

In addition, this is also the tenth day of the offensive and defensive battle launched by Zhang Yan and Zhang Shuang under Chengyun City. Zhang Shuang didn't know about the casualties on Zhang Yan's side.

He knew that the armies under his command had lost seven or eight thousand soldiers in this battle.

According to the proportion of siege warfare, it is believed that Zhang Yan's casualties were between 10,000 and 15,000.

"Don't call me for dinner."

He Miao looked at Zhang Shuang and the others eating and drinking spicy food, and then thought about himself supervising the soldiers on the front line, and felt a little unbalanced.

However, he did not dare to speak. Hearing Zhang Shuang's question, He Miao first asked the soldier to add a meal, and then replied, "Yes." Zhang Yan routinely, take a break at noon. The same is true for casualties. Less and less every day. ”

"Well, it seems that Zhang Yan has figured it out. It is absolutely impossible to attack the city I defend. So the siege is getting smaller and smaller. Zhang Shuang nodded, without any surprises.

Fighting a war is a technical job, and not everyone can play it. A prince is a higher profession related to IQ. The princes with low IQ are destroyed.

Only those with high IQ can have fun.

Zhang Yan is good whether he is a general or a prince. Therefore, it was impossible for him to storm the city all the time. The answer is very simple, Zhang Yan is a million people. Say a little less, but not much more.

At least not on a par with the imperial court.

His millions of people, consume a little is a little. And the imperial court can replenish its troops indefinitely. Storming the city, even if Zhang Yan's casualties are one, the casualties of the Han army are two.

Zhang Yan can't afford to consume it, not to mention the fact that Zhang Yanjun is two and Han Jun is one.

The only thing Zhang Yan could do was to stop the attack to avoid more attrition.

"The general thought. When will Zhang Yan choose to stop attacking? He Miao asked curiously.

"It's probably only been a few days." Zhang Shuang finished the rice in one bite and said. Here, the rule of not saying anything is simply nothing.

"Oh. Let's hope it's over sooner. It's really tiring to go on like this. He Miao said.

Perhaps God favored He Miao, and his expectations were soon fulfilled. Usual. When the soldiers finished eating, Zhang Yan would order the soldiers to attack.

But today. It had been half an hour since the soldiers finished eating, but Zhang Yan's army had not moved.

Zhang Shuang got the news. He led the crowd to the city walls. Compared to ten days ago, there were many more mottled blood stains on the city walls, some scarlet, some dark purple.

Holding various positions, all kinds of corpses were piled up in a mess, and a strong stench filled the air. However, the soldiers were apparently accustomed to it, and ate on the spot.

"General, Zhang Yan has stopped attacking. Does it mean that he is going to retreat? He Miao's face showed a mixed look of joy and said.

Needless to say, if Zhang Yan retreats, then he will run away from the battle exploits that he planned to break Zhang Yan. How do you explain to the queen's sister when you go back?

I still remember that before going out, Queen He specially asked him to enter the palace and let him work hard. Gritted his teeth, he said, "This time, I spent a lot of money to let Zhang Shuang take care of you." ”

"What a great cost??? He Miao was curious, but he didn't dare to ask. Again and again, patting his chest again and again to ensure meritorious service, this is the only way out of Luoyang.

"Retreat ???" Zhang Shuang smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "Zhang Yan is short of food, how can he retreat easily." And then there's the real sinister part. I see that Zhang Yanli can't fight, I'm afraid I'm going to use a strategy. ”

"Seeking ???" He Miao was a little flustered and said, "Seeking that is ever-changing, and it is impossible to prevent it." ”

"There are many strategies, but if we defend the city, there are only a few. Discrete, flooding, digging tunnels. Zhang Shuang shrugged his shoulders and said.

"It's impossible to be separated, all the generals and county guards present are the court generals, and it is impossible to rebel against the court and go to the bandits. All that's left is flooding or digging tunnels, and it's really difficult to choose between the two. He Miao looked a little better, but he was still a little worried.

This poor straw bale is really hopeless. The generals present and the county guards were silent in their hearts. Chen Deng couldn't help but say: "It must be digging a tunnel." ”

"Why are you so sure?" He Miao was stunned. He looked at Chen Deng and only knew that this person was Zhang Shuang's adviser.

"He rode ......." Chen Denggang wanted to taunt. Zhang Shuang felt that he had to give Queen He's poor brother a face, so he stopped Chen Deng and said to He Miao: "There is a torrential rain in summer, and the Yellow River is soaring. It is close to the Yellow River, so flooding is a good idea. On the contrary, there is little rain in winter, the soil is hard, and it is not easy to collapse, which is suitable for digging tunnels. ”

"I see." He Miao suddenly realized that he had learned again.

Zhang Shuang and the others shook their heads, there was no way to take this straw bag.

"Send more experienced soldiers to walk around the base of the wall and listen. Prevent Zhang Yan from digging tunnels. Zhang Shuang gave an order to everyone.

"No."

...............

Inside Zhang Yan's camp.

In the past ten days, there have been too many casualties. Although the non-commissioned officers of the battalions did not mutiny, their morale was generally not high. The atmosphere of war weariness is rising.

Zhang Yan, Du Chang, Wang Dang, Sun Qing and others led dozens of personal soldiers to inspect the situation in each battalion, and the atmosphere was relatively silent. Everyone is thinking about the way forward.

In short, an open attack will not work, and the casualties are too great.

"I don't think it's possible to storm it. How about digging tunnels? Sun Qing also began to consider this possibility and said.

"Yes, if you break into the city at night. According to the elite level of the Han army, it may not be our opponent. Wang Dang's eyes lit up and said excitedly.

"What you can imagine, Zhang Shuang can definitely imagine. After we make a move, if he will make a plan, he will catch a turtle in an urn. What are we going to do? Zhang Yan asked. Then Zhang Yan looked up in the direction of Chengyun County, the high city wall was nothing in his eyes, and Zhang Shuang's deterrent power was powerful.

"You can't compare his IQ with him."

After a long time, Zhang Yan said.

"This force can't be fought, and it can't be used. Then we're going to have nothing to do with him? Sun Qing frowned, only to feel that a big stone was blocked in his chest, and he panicked.

"Not necessarily." Zhang Yan smiled faintly and said. He had a plan in his heart, and he always wanted to use it, but unfortunately the situation in front of him was very good, so the generals were restless, so he chose to attack the city.

Now that the siege is not successful, it has to be picked up again.

"Dashuai, if you have something to say, say it quickly." Sun Qing and the others have been following Zhang Yan for a long time, knowing his temper, seeing this, they knew that there was a door, and hurriedly said.

"There are more strong generals, there are Bai Qi and Le Yi in the distance, and Lu Zhi and Huangfu Song in the nearest. They won every battle, attacked the city and slaughtered the country, and they were invincible. But Bai Qi died of slander. Le Yi also fled because of slander. Huangfu Song pacified the yellow scarf, and rewarded him for meritorious deeds, second only to Zhang Shuang. Seal the car and ride the general, open the palace with the three divisions, and the history of Jizhou Thorn. As a result, within a few years, he was slandered again and retired in Luoyang. ”

Zhang Yan said with a smile.

"General, are you kidding? There is Zhang Rang to protect Zhang Shuang, and the one who will not be framed by slander in the world is Zhang Shuang. Sun Qing was dumbfounded.

Wang Dang and Du Chang also nodded in unison, feeling unreliable.

"In Luoyang City, it's not just Zhang Rang. There are also Zhao Zhong, Guo Sheng and others, who are tied with Zhang Rang for the top ten permanent attendants. Zhang Rang is just one of the more favored. If we bribe the rest of the ten permanent servants, as well as He Jin, who has a grudge against Zhang Shuang. may be able to pull Zhang Shuang off the horse. ”

Zhang Yan narrowed her eyes and said.

Of course, Zhang Yan thought about the success rate of this strategy. Come to think of it, it's unlikely to succeed. But in the end, there is a way.

It's better than sitting still.

And the rest of the people had no other good way, and in the end, they agreed to Zhang Yan's plan. So, Zhang Yan ordered people to go to the old nest of Taihang Mountain, divide the gold and silver savings accumulated over the years into several parts, bribe the rest of the regular servants respectively, and then send people who can speak well.

If the arrangement is properly arranged, it depends on whether it will be achieved or not.

However, Zhang Yan didn't just wait for the result to have nothing to do, first of all, he reduced the size of the camp a little. Because the soldiers were injured a lot, and there was a lot of space to spare. This is extremely detrimental to defense.

All in all, Zhang Yan didn't leave Zhang Shuang a chance at all.

................

City, temporary hussar general's palace, in the backyard. Zhang Shuang was bored, so he pulled out the flying snow horse and practiced horse fighting. When this horse was first obtained from Yuan Shu, it was not honest for a while.

But now it is completely peaceful, which reminds Zhang Shuang of Queen He.

"This is horse nature, whether it is a real fierce horse or a rouge horse, as long as you ride more, you will be tamed." Zhang Shuang sometimes came back with interest and smiled.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

Zhang Shuanglian's sex starts, roaring again and again, and the gun comes out like electricity, which seems to be the same. However, Zhang Shuang's heart is not all blank, greedy for pleasure.

During this time, he sent people to patrol near the city wall to listen to the movement of digging tunnels, but there was no news.

What is Zhang Yan doing with this product?

Zhang Shuang sometimes can't help but have questions. (To be continued......)

PS: The outbreak lasted for eight days, all in one breath. Yesterday there were only two changes, and today there is also wood power. Let me take my time, and I will also have two shifts today.
