Chapter 180: Meng De Presents a Stunning Shadow
On the second day, the officers and troops regained their strength, and after breakfast, the battle began again.
This time, the officers and troops did not send people to fight, but conducted a tentative battle.
Why is it a temptation? Because Lin Bei saw that only a few troops in the official army were moving, about more than 20,000 sergeants, and the rest did not move, obviously wanting to try to see how Yanzikou's defense was after the arrival of the big barbarian.
This battle lasted for nearly two hours, and the officers and soldiers were defeated, and they could not enter the pass through the guò ladder at all, and often could only climb halfway, and the ladder was cut off, or the sergeant was shot to death by the yellow turban, and the officers and soldiers were withdrawn, leaving nearly 2,000 corpses.
"The Yellow Turban is really full of morale, and it is difficult for the officials and soldiers to guard the swallow's mouth as solid as gold." Lin Bei watched the battle the whole time, thinking that the yellow scarves were quite fierce, and the officers and soldiers really had no way at all.
After the war, both sides sent people out to collect the corpses, Lin Bei found that when the corpses were collected, the officers and soldiers and the yellow turbans met each other many times, originally Lin Bei thought that there would be a fight, but he didn't expect that they didn't care at all, they had been safe and sound, as if they hadn't seen it, this phenomenon made Lin Bei surprised and confused.
It is said that the two sides are already mortal enemies, and it would be good to take the opportunity to kill each other, but they didn't do so, which made Lin Beidu feel very strange like the war-free card.
"The ancients are so strange." In the end, Lin Bei could only think so.
On the third day, the officers and troops stopped fighting, they stopped fighting, they rested halfway, and the yellow scarves did not move, and both sides may be racking their brains to prepare for a strategy, and Lin Bei also thought a lot. He was thinking about how to break through the swallow mouth if he was Lu Zhi or Cao Cao, and in the end, Lin Bei thought that he was inferior to others, and he couldn't think of a way at all.
The level of Yanzikou is too dangerous, on both sides is the mountain and the cliff, the Yanzikou is stuck in it, like a pair of pliers, if you want to get through guò, there is only one way to attack and completely break the Yanzikou. But siege warfare in ancient times was not so easy to fight. This can be seen from the battle of the Eighteen Candidates Meeting the Tiger Prison in the Romance, at that time, the military strength of the Eighteen Candidates was nearly one million, and the camp tents stretched for more than 200 miles, and there were only many people in the Tiger Prison Pass at that time? It's only 100,000 to die. Or maybe less. This disparity in strength has not yet broken through the tiger prison in the end. The princes had to disperse.
Although it is a romance, it also illustrates the difficulty of siege warfare, especially if the defending side is not greedy for merit. As long as the grain and grass are sufficient, it is estimated that it will be possible to defend for ten years or eight years, the army strength of the big barbarian is nearly 200,000, and the official army is only about 100,000 (Yizhou also has reinforcements), although the officers and soldiers are elite, but the yellow turban is under the command of the barbarian, and the morale is strong, so it is really difficult to break the pass.
So Lin Bei's head thought about it for a day and didn't come up with any good methods, what internal responses, digging trenches, etc., all thought it was inappropriate, and finally Lin Bei could only sigh, thinking that it would be good if there were explosives.
If there is explosives, it is really much simpler, you can blow up the city wall, you can also blow up the surrounding mountains, and you can break it with one shot, but unfortunately although gunpowder is available in this era, it has not been used in the military, mainly relying on manpower.
"Let's spend it." For Lin Bei, for Xishan Township, this situation is quite favorable, the official army and the yellow turban are behemoths, tigers, Xishan Township is just a kitten now, so Lin Bei saw this situation, but sat firmly on the Diaoyutai.
Just when the officials and the Yellow Turbans were in a stalemate, the situation in the Central Plains changed again.
Dong Zhuo took over Lu Zhi's post to besiege Guangzong, and there was no progress in half a month, Dong Zhuo was not a patient person, so he was anxious, listened to the words of his subordinate Guo Yan, and sent someone to steal into the city of Guangzong to surrender the Yellow Turban, Zhang Jiao heard it, and the plan was calculated, and he sent people to surrender fraudulently, and opened the city gate.
Zhang Jiao broke Dong Zhuo, and his brother Zhang Liang rendezvous Guangzong City, gathered 300,000 Yellow Turbans, the soldiers were divided into three ways, first swept away the remnants of the Jizhou official army, and then united a place, the soldiers pointed directly at the Si Li, Emperor Ling was shocked, recruited back Huangfu Song, and let him be the general of the expedition to the north, and once again mobilized 100,000 officers and troops to fight with the Yellow Turban, this battle Huangfu Song was defeated, the Yellow Turban won a big victory, and the state was too guarded Ding Yuan did not return, the Yellow Turban in the state rose again, its momentum was like fire, and the state was in chaos, Zhang Jiao accepted Zhang Liang's plan, feint to attack Si Li, but sent a large army into the territory of the state, and the Yellow Turban of the state, broke dozens of cities in a row, and for a time, Jizhou and the state all fell into the hands of the Yellow Turban.
Zhang Jiao is the banner of the Yellow Turban, Zhang Jiao is powerful, the morale of the Yellow Turban in each state is very high, the number of states has been defeated, countless urgent reports have flown to Luoyang, the capital division, too often Liu Yan to Liu Hong, saying that the military is tired in various places, so that it is unfavorable to suppress the thieves, Liu Hong adopted Liu Yan's opinion, put the position of the state pastor, the position of the state pastor is higher than the Taishou, and has the power of military and political affairs, the original intention is to strengthen the strength of the local government, so as to facilitate the extermination of the Yellow Turbans in various places, but it is obvious that the state pastor came out, led the rise of the heroes, and this, four years earlier than the history.
At the same time, because the Yellow Turban of Hebei and Hebei has become a general trend, Huangfu Song asked Emperor Ling Liu Hong to recall Lu Zhi, first protect Si Li, Liu Hong did not follow, Huang Fu Song continued to be on the table, Liu Hong did not obey again, Huang Fu Song resigned, Liu Hong was furious, put Huang Fu Song in prison, and became a cellmate with Dong Zhuo.
Liu Hong made Zhu Jun the commander in chief and continued to suppress the thief, Zhu Jun's talent was not as good as Huangfu Song, but he was in a hurry to show Xiàn, and was taken advantage of by Zhang Liang, and the army was defeated by the party, Zhu Jun died in battle, and only 40,000 of the 100,000 officers and soldiers remained, and Luoyang was in danger.
Liu Hong invited Huangfu Song out again, Huangfu Song also submitted to Liu Hong again, let Liu Hong recall Lu Zhi, Liu Hong refused again, after the monarch and ministers talked for a long time, Huangfu Song changed his mind and no longer forced Emperor Ling, saying that this time the Yellow Turban was overwhelming, and he was afraid that he could not do it, so he recommended a person to Emperor Ling, this person is Beihai Taishou Kong Rong, Liu Hong urgently summoned Kong Rong into Beijing.
Kong integrated into Beijing, recommended a person to Huangfu Song, this person's name is Xun Yu, Huangfu Song had a deep talk with him, and he was overjoyed after the account, saying that he was the pillar of the country, Liu Hong saw it, and Ren Xun Yu was the palace order, and went out with Huangfu Song.
Lin Bei didn't know that Xun Yu had also come out of the mountain, the most important strategist under Cao Mengde was now under Liu Hong, with Xun Yu's loyalty to the Han, even if he didn't like Liu Hong anymore, I am afraid that he would do his best like Zhuge Liang assisting Liu Chan, at the same time. Zhang Jiao and Zhang Liang were enough to choke, it was precisely because of their great strength that Xun Yu was blown up.
At this time, it was already the fifth day of Lin Bei's visit to Yanzikou.
The battles between the officers and the yellow turbans are not frequent, they often fight for a day and rest for a day, yesterday the officers and soldiers rested, and today at dawn, Lin Bei saw that the officers and soldiers started cooking very early, and he knew that he had to fight again today.
At this time, the big barbarian heard a report from his subordinates that something had happened in Anding County. The big man's face changed. After some careful questioning, the big barbarian finally looked up to the sky and sighed, God will not help me.
The big barbarian is not brave and unscrupulous as Lin Bei imagined, on the contrary. He has many schemes. From the official army. The big barbarian formulated a strategy, that is, according to the swallow's mouth, even if it is to guard a warm spring. The big barbarians don't want to fight a tough battle with the official army, they want to defend to the death, the food is too important, this year's South Vietnam is in turmoil, the food is tight, the big barbarians have already prepared, and sent Tuhuer to guard the rear of Anding County, where as a granary, also sent 30,000 yellow scarves, originally thought that it was foolproof, how to know that the thunderbolt on a sunny day, the most annoying thing is that the big barbarian still doesn't know who broke through Anding County, he originally thought that South Vietnam was in the palm of his hand, but the reality gave him a heavy stick, and South Vietnam also had a mysterious team stabbing him chrysanthemum.
It's not that the big barbarian hasn't thought about the Xishan township, but to be honest, the big barbarian really looks down on that village, except for the mysterious dragon god, how many big barbarians in the village are clear, but the big barbarian can't free his hand, so in the end, the big barbarian thought about the power of South Vietnam, almost thought out his head, and couldn't figure out who did it.
However, the big barbarian has a decision, and if he can't figure it out, he doesn't want to, and it is important to deal with the officials and soldiers, and now that the food is tight, it must not be able to keep the harvest time, and the big barbarians have no choice but to have a tough battle with the officials and soldiers.
"Point Army, today I will personally fight, and I will meet the heroes and heroes of the Central Plains"
The big barbarian is ready to scare the momentum of the officers and soldiers, and if the results are very good, maybe they can fight and drive the officers and troops out.
Today, Lu Zhi just wanted to harass him with a small fight, but after the army was lined up, Yanzikou came out first, and he also rode a big bull and shouted at the officers and soldiers: "I am a handsome man in the Yellow Turban, a child in the Central Plains, come and die quickly." ”
Pretty handsome? When Lu Zhi and a few others heard this, they couldn't believe it, the big barbarian had a convulsion? Actually preemptively played? However, hearing the cheers of the Yellow Turban Army, Lu Zhi and the others were sure that that person should be really handsome.
"Meng De, how is this big barbarian's martial arts?" Lu Zhi looked at the silent Cao Mengde and asked.
Cao Cao smiled bitterly, and then sighed: "This person is indeed a natural warrior, the last time he rushed into battle, he was a thousand, and there was no one in the army at all." ”
"How is it compared to that tiger grid?"
"Tiger Ge is like that firefly, how can it be compared with Haoyue"
Lu Zhi and Ding Yuan looked at each other, and said in their hearts that this Cao Mengde was probably really frightened by the big barbarian, and the evaluation was so high, but even if it was discounted and discounted, this big barbarian would definitely be more fierce than Huge, so who would give it a try?
Between these bosses, other generals are not convinced, as the saying goes, there is no first martial arts, Cao Mengde praised the big barbarians to the sky, how can these bloody soldiers endure it? It's one thing to fight, it's another thing to fight or not, and at that moment, several generals stood up: "Marshal, let me fight." ”
"Dashuai, I'll go get this person's dog's head"
"Marshal, Lu Bu and Lu Feng will fight first"
Lu Zhi looked at these brave generals under him, he was very pleased, and just wanted to speak, but saw Ding Yuan arch his hand towards Lu Zhi: "Commander, how about letting my son Feng fight this first?" ”
Lu Bu stepped forward.
When Lu Zhi and Cao Mengde saw Lu Bu's figure, their eyes suddenly lit up: "What a fierce general"
Is it true that a fierce general can be seen at a glance, like Bian Ji's small body is said to be a fierce general, no one will believe it, but Lu Bu's figure is very convincing.
In the romance, it is said that Lu Bu is one zhang tall, and in the Eastern Han Dynasty, it is at least two meters and four meters tall, and it is also said that he is nine feet tall, but whether it is one zhang or nine feet, at least it shows that Lu Bu's size is indeed rare, in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, when the average height was not very high, Lu Bu was more prominent, Cao Mengde was only one meter and seven meters tall, and he had to look up when he looked at Lu Bu.
Cao Cao's eyes are really bright and bright, the world knows that Cao Cao has two hobbies, the first is sex, especially a good woman, he is not already married, but he can't raise much interest, the second is talent, especially the generals, Cao Cao really likes it to the bones, perhaps because he is not good at martial arts, Cao Cao's tolerance for generals is quite high, Guan Yu rides alone for thousands of miles, Zhao Yun's seven in and seven out are directly related to this, even if it is the original Lu Bu, notoriety, after the defeat of the army wants to surrender Cao Cao, Cao Cao was also very moved, if it weren't for Liu Bei's interference, Lu Bu might not have died.
So as soon as this person saw Lu Bu, his eyes were like stars, "Are you Lu Fengxian?" The son of Lord Ding? ”
Ding Yuan smiled: "Feng Xian is my righteous son. ”
Cao Mengde praised: "Lord Ding has a son like this, it is really a great blessing, in my opinion, Feng Xian will not be inferior to that barbarian, and this battle can be won." ”
Ding Yuan was also happy, he still attached great importance to this godson: "That handsome, let Feng go to battle first." ”
Lu Zhi nodded.
Lu Bu led the horse and was about to jump up, but Cao Mengde stopped: "Feng Xian is going to use this horse to fight against that handsome?" ”
Lu Bu nodded: "Exactly." ”
"A good horse can be matched with a fierce general, such a bad horse, how can it be worthy of the first talent, come on, lead my shadow horse out."
The attendant pulled out a military horse, this horse is nearly a foot long, about eight feet high, the whole body is pure black, even if you don't know the horse people, you can see that this must be a famous horse, Cao Cao led the shadow, handed to Lu Bu: "Feng Xian, this horse is called the shadow, can travel thousands of miles a day, follow me but bend this horse, today I see Feng Xian, Cao will know that Feng Xian is the most suitable for this horse, and hope that Feng Xian will accept it, with the help of this horse, will be able to win a battle." ”
In this era, good horses are hard to find, and Cao Mengde was so generous as soon as he made a move, which made Lu Bu very moved, and seeing Cao Mengde calling kindly, Lu Bu immediately had a deep affection for this General Cao.
If Lin Bei saw this kind of scene, I am afraid he would only be dumbfounded. (To be continued......)
