Chapter 121: Playing Zhang Liang (Part II)
"This ......" The sect member and Guo Dian glanced at each other, still a little unclear. But the sect member still replied stubbornly: "I think the Yellow Turban should quickly increase its troops and strengthen its vigilance." But wouldn't that make it more difficult for us to attack the city? ”
"Huh!" Smiling slightly, Wang Xu glanced at the two of them inscrutablely, but said softly: "No, the difficulty will not increase, we have been arming for three days, and Zhang Liang is bound to have already learned, so he must have increased his troops in Ji Ze a long time ago, no matter when he goes, he will be too late." As for vigilance, yes, I told him to be on guard, and to be on guard until he was mentally exhausted. ”
As soon as these words came out, the sect member immediately realized everything, and a slight smile appeared on his face. However, Guo Dian on the side is still a little unclear. Seeing this, Wang Xu no longer detoured, and immediately said directly: "Yes, after receiving the information that we have sent troops, Ji Ze's yellow turbans must be ready for battle." But in fact, we didn't send troops at all, and because we blocked the city gates, they couldn't get new information, so they must have wasted their spirits and guessed. At this time, we sent another 2,000 elite horsemen to make a detour to Jize, to Nanhe, where Zhang Liang's main force was located, and to make them vaguely aware of it, what consequences do you say this will have? ”
As soon as the words fell, the sect member couldn't help but laugh: "Hahaha...... Zhang Liangcai was not long after the defeat, and he must be cautious at this moment, seeing this situation, he must think that we are pretending to attack Jize again, but in fact we are going to raid Nanhe or Pingxiang. At this moment, he has not completed the adjustment of the army, and he does not know the truth and fiction, so he will only strengthen his vigilance. And gradually divert his attention from Ji Ze, and dare not move! ”
Hearing this, Wang Xu suddenly nodded and said, "Yes!" When Zhang Liang hesitated and did not dare to come out, and Ji Ze Yellow Turban had been on guard for a day, and the city was tired and wanted to rest, we sent a cavalry with more military drums at night to the outside of the city to beat constantly, so that his heart panicked. And every other hour, let the soldiers suddenly shout loudly, and rush to the city wall by the night, which is bound to make his chickens and dogs restless. And Zhang Liang was confused by our army and didn't see our army really attack, so he must have hesitated and did not dare to send reinforcements again. On the eve of tomorrow's dawn, when the Yellow Turbans were exhausted to the extreme, and thought that every attack we attacked was a bluff, we rested for a whole day, and the army of morale and spirit suddenly slaughtered the city and climbed the city walls. This chicken can be taken down with a raised hand, not to be afraid! ”
As Wang Xu finished talking about the whole plan, the sect member and Guo Dian glanced at each other with joy on their faces, and then they sighed in unison: "General Taoluo, I might as well too!" ”
smiled slightly, but was not polite, and accepted the praise calmly. He has worked so hard in the past three days just to establish his prestige, and this battle has special significance for him. It was the first battle in which he commanded the army alone, and it was the first battle in which he proved himself, and he not only could not be defeated, but also won simply and beautifully. Because only in this way can he really convince all the generals from the heart, otherwise no matter how much other work he does, it will only be a sideshow.
Next, as soon as Qiē proceeded in an orderly manner according to Wang Xu's plan. Half an hour after the soldiers were disbanded, Wang Xu asked Jiang Qi and Jiang Yiqu to lead two thousand cavalry to Nanhe and Pingxiang, and made a detailed explanation.
Because Guangnian was only more than 50 miles away from Jize , it was not until 10 o'clock in the afternoon that Wang Xu ordered Yu Yuanjin and Han Juzi to lead 3,000 cavalry to rush to Jize with a large number of military drums. And let them go as slowly as possible, as long as they arrive before nightfall. After that, Wang Xu himself went to catch up on sleep.
At the end of the day, on the eve of dawn, the well-slept army quietly went out of the city with siege equipment and ignition equipment under the leadership of Wang Xu, and hurried towards Ji Ze. When the army arrived, Yuan Jin and Han Juzi had just made a bluff charge.
Wang Xu was not in a hurry, and when he saw that the sky was still dark, he paused the drums and rested in place. It wasn't until the sky was a little brighter that he suddenly stood up and shouted, "All the army assemble!" ”
His voice was heard far and wide in the open and quiet wild. All the soldiers who heard the order immediately stood up from the ground, and the generals also rushed to Wang Xu from all sides, waiting for the order.
Seeing that the time had come, Wang Xu did not hesitate, and immediately said in a deep voice: "Drumming!" ”
"Boom! Boom! Boom! As the herald conveyed the order to the drummer, dozens of snare drums burst into a dull sound, and soon coalesced into one powerful wave.
And at this moment, of course, the generals have also understood Wang Xu's previous intentions, and while respecting in their hearts, they are also eager to take the lead in the battle and win the merit of breaking the city. So they all looked at Wang Xu expectantly, full of fighting spirit.
This is exactly what Wang Xu wants, only when these generals have the will to fight and rush to make meritorious contributions, can the army become a lion. Therefore, after smiling slightly, Wang Xu ordered aloud: "Lu Weiheng, where is Zhao Rui!" ”
The two of them were overjoyed, and they quickly rushed out of the crowd and shouted: "The end will be!" ”
Seeing that the spirit of the two was quite good, Wang Xu immediately nodded, and then shouted: "Order the two of you to lead the infantry of the headquarters to launch a strong attack from the south and west!" ”
"No!" The two of them quickly responded, and hurried back to their own tribe with joy, and quickly organized a siege of the city while the night was dark.
In just a moment, Lu Weiheng took the lead in assembling, and the soldiers rushed to the city wall in groups of dozens of people carrying a large number of ladders, hook ladders and other objects. There are also countless soldiers who carry bags full of earth and stones, or resist, and gallop with bags......
Because the army led by Wang Xu did not light the fire, the yellow scarves on the Jize city wall could not see the specific situation on Wang Xu's side, and they were used to hearing the drums, so they thought that they were starting to blempty again, after all, they had been tossing for a day and a night, and they were very tired and lax. But Ji Ze's guards Yan Zheng and Gao Sheng were still in doubt at the moment, the two had experienced the previous defeat, and they were already afraid, and when they heard the drums, they couldn't help but glance at each other. Gao Sheng, who was full of stubble and had a scar on his forehead and eyes, scolded angrily: "What's going on with these Han dogs? In the morning we received news that the troops had been dispatched, and we kept watch for a whole day without a trace. At nightfall came a troop of soldiers and horses, and hid from a distance, beating the broken drum without ceasing. When he reported to General Rengong, he also said that there were also Han dogs in the rear, and he was worried that they would repeat their old tricks again, obviously attacking us, but in fact they were sneaking into the rear. But what do we do now? I didn't dare to fight, and I didn't know how to keep it, and the brothers had to be scrapped if they survived like this. ”
When Yan Zheng heard this, he also sighed with a wry smile: "I didn't understand this either, I sent someone to investigate outside, but I couldn't find anything, and the spies who entered Guangnian City lost their news again." I wanted to arrange for half of the people to be on guard and half to rest, but they suddenly rushed over again, startling everyone! But fortunately, they were just bluffing, and after rushing three times, the soldiers were used to it and did not panic so much. No, you see that many of them are sitting on the spot and resting, so it's okay, if the enemy is killed, they can react quickly and take a little rest. It's just that after the beating of the drum this time, why didn't I hear the shouts of the Han army's charge, only the sound of footsteps? ”
Just when Yan Zheng was puzzled, he suddenly saw Gao Sheng's face changing dramatically while staring outside the city, pointing to the outside of the city, unable to speak for a long time.
"What's wrong?" Looking back at the outside of the city wall, Yan Zheng almost fell to the ground on the spot. Fortunately, he didn't fight on the first day after all, so he immediately opened his voice and shouted: "Get up, damn, the Han army is attacking the city, all give me up, archers shoot quickly!" Fast! ”
It's a pity that it's too late, when they can see the dense siege troops with the help of the fire on the city wall, Lu Weiheng and Zhao Rui both rushed to the moat one after another, and the bags of earth and stone were thrown into the moat like rain, and when the yellow turban on the city wall organized the defense chaotically, the moat had been filled in several sections in a few blinks. And the soldiers carrying siege equipment were not stupid, and immediately swarmed up from the road they had opened, and in a few breaths they had already driven the ladder to the city wall. Moreover, Lu Weiheng and Zhao Rui led people to cut off the bridge chains on the moat. The bridge fell to the ground, and a road leading to the city gate was suddenly placed in front of the soldiers.
Seeing this, Wang Xu was also overjoyed, and immediately shouted loudly: "All the soldiers shouted and cheered!" ”
As his words fell, the soldiers who were idle in the rear immediately opened their voices and shouted. "Kill!"
"Brothers in front, congratulations on winning the first merit!"
"Come on! Don't let us rob you of the credit! ”
"If it doesn't work, let's change it!"
As soon as this chaotic roar came out, Xu Shu suddenly couldn't stop laughing. Wang Xu, Zhou Zhi and Zhang Jing almost even dropped their chins to the ground, sweating on their foreheads! Only then did I remember that this is a ragtag army, and there is no unified slogan! But at the moment, it's good to be in shape, so it doesn't matter how you shout, as long as it's loud enough.
When the soldiers in front heard these words, their reactions were different, there was no rain of arrows on the city wall, the road was smooth, where were they willing to give credit to others, and winning the battle was the only way for these ordinary soldiers to be promoted and make a fortune. Therefore, the shouts of killing that erupted in the blink of an eye of the soldiers in front far exceeded the soldiers in the rear, who were rushing to climb the city. Lu Weiheng and Zhao Rui also went into battle in person, grabbed the ladder one after another, and quickly jumped up.
The Yellow Turban soldiers who had just woken up saw that the Han army had approached the city, and they were all in a panic and chaos, and the archers with quick reactions could barely shoot some arrows, but most of them were also weak and too sparse to cause much damage. By the time the yellow scarves were finally a little neater, many Han troops had already rushed to the city wall. The combat strength of the Yellow Turban's individual soldiers was not as good as that of the Han army, and at this moment it was even more exhausted and depressed.
Seeing this scene, Wang Xu smiled. Knowing that the overall situation had been completed, he saw that many soldiers in front of him had already climbed the city wall, thought for a while, and then turned around and called: "Zhang He, Gao Lan!" ”
"The last general!"
"The two of you will lead the troops to meet and assist the two generals, Lu Weiheng and Zhao Rui, to break the enemy!"
"No!" When the two heard Wang Xu's order, they were immediately overjoyed, and after bowing, they quickly ran to order Qi Bu and kill Ji Ze.
And at this moment, the sect members around Wang Xu were also in a good mood, and couldn't help but praise: "General Wang is really a god!" With this clever plan, it is effortless to break the enemy!"
Hearing this, Wang Xu shook his head with a smile and said: "This can't be said to be a clever plan, it's just a trick on Zhang Liang, if it weren't for the Yellow Turban's defeat not long ago, the morale was low, and the generals were cold, it wouldn't be so easy!" ”
As soon as the words fell, the generals were immediately impressed!
However, Wang Xu didn't speak again, waited quietly for a while, and when he saw that Ji Ze's city gate was slowly opened, he was about to shake his cloak, raised the spear in his hand, and shouted: "The whole army charges!" ”
Seeing that the credit was ahead, the soldiers who had been waiting for a long time suddenly let out a shocking cheer, and then rushed wildly under the leadership of their respective generals, overwhelmingly rushing towards Jize......
