Text Chapter 136 The Battle of Wenxi shocked all sides
Among the five hundred cavalry, Zhao Yun was sandwiched among them. In fact, the cavalry standing here were all cavalry of the Dragon and Tiger Army, and they were according to Jia Xu's arrangement, and they left Wenxi County, where Xihe County was from Shicheng overnight. What he did was the technique of sneak attack while the stone was careless.
Seeing that the army was only three hundred steps away from his side, and the cavalry could play the best attack role with a single charge, Zhao Yun gave the order to attack. Then the five hundred dragon and tiger army rushed straight like a whirlwind.
The sudden change made Shi Heng a little confused, he didn't know what was going on. It wasn't until he saw the figure of Zhao Yun, the leader of the cavalry, that he knew that he had been ambushed.
"Wang Yi, you dare to harm me." After knowing that Shi Heng, who had fallen into the trap, screamed, he turned around and urged the horse to flee.
It's just that ordinary horses are not the opponents of the Yezhao Jade Lion, just as Shi Heng turned the horse's body, Zhao Yun's bright silver spear behind him had already stabbed over.
Seeing that the silver spear head had already gathered behind him, Shi Heng raised his knife to block. Under one blow, the body of the gun was crooked.
It's just that in this way, Shi Heng also lost the opportunity to escape. Zhao Yun couldn't shoot a shot, so he continued to raise his gun and stab three times, waving his hand, stabbing three times in a row, Shi Heng was fortunate to avoid the first two shots, but the last shot entered from his front chest and came out from the back of his chest.
Shi Heng's face was pale, he spat blood from his mouth and fell from his horse, rolling his eyes and looking at the sky, with a look of unwillingness.
As soon as Shi Heng died, the 10,000-strong Hanoi army broke out in a riot. Just as the leader was about to regroup his ranks, there were shouts of slaughter and the sound of horses' hooves suddenly rang out. I saw a lot of cavalry coming from all directions. Among them, a big Lu character took the lead, and it was Lu Bu's vanguard army that arrived.
The arrival of the 5,000 vanguard army divided into three sides to launch an encirclement and suppression of Wang Kuang's Hanoi army.
There was no time to do any defense, so he could only rely on the spear in his hand to fight with the cavalry. But without a camp and without organization, the Hanoi army was completely like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, and in the face of the iron hooves of the vanguard army, there were pieces of wailing and falling to the ground.
Among them, the most eye-catching are Lu Bu and Zhao Yun.
One was a red cloak, the other was a white cloak, and they entered the Hanoi army, like a double dragon playing with pearls, and everywhere they went, they fell in pieces like wheat harvested in a wheat field.
After killing more than a dozen people in a row with a close shot, Zhao Yun, who was dressed in white and riding a white horse, slammed the horse rope, and the Yezhao Jade Lion suddenly stood upright, and from a distance, it looked like a dragon that was about to gallop to the sky.
At this moment, Zhao Yun's voice also resounded throughout the battlefield, "Those who surrender will not be killed!" ”
On the city tower, Lu Fei, who was dressed as a man, looked at Ailang's sassy and heroic posture with an excited face. Speaking of which, the two haven't seen each other for more than a year. Since she received the task to investigate the situation in the state, she has not seen Zhao Yun. We finally meet here today.
On the other side, Lu Bu held Fang Tian's halberd, and after a while, he escaped seven or eight young generals of the Hanoi army, so that no one dared to approach him. Seeing that Zhao Yun shouted that those who surrendered would not be killed, he was also shouting on the other side.
The shouts of the two generals, and the aura like death, caused the hearts of the Hanoi soldiers who had been retreating step by step to finally loosen their guns, and I don't know who threw the weapons in their hands on the ground first, and then followed by pieces of imitation.
The 10,000 Hanoi army was just over an hour of time, and it was the death of the death, the surrender of the surrender, and the battle ended there.
On the gate of Wenxi County, Wang Yi and his subordinates looked at the scene in front of them, all of them were surprised in their hearts, and at the same time, they were also thinking about their future destination, maybe they would follow these fierce generals to occupy a place in this troubled world.
At the end of World War I, Li Ru finally appeared at the gate of the city. In this big war, he and Jia Xu are the two main planners, and now it seems that everything is going well.
Seeing Li Ru appear, Zhao Yun and Lu Bu came with horses and hugged their fists to salute.
"General Zhao, we'll meet again." Looking at Zhao Yun, Li Ru said very politely.
"Mr. Li, it's been a great job." Zhao Yun said with a hint of a smile on his face.
"Hehe, General Zhao, Miss Lu has something to tell you over there, the war here is over, and only the end is left, so you don't have to worry about it." Li Ru still had a smile on his face, but when he said the word Miss Lu, there seemed to be a hint of envy in his smile.
Zhao Yun's face turned red after hearing this. Zilong, who has never been afraid of the enemy on the battlefield and dares to break through the army, is indeed like a helpless young man at this moment, and he doesn't know how to answer.
"Haha, General Zhao just has to go over, and the matter here is left to me and Fengxian." Li Ru didn't expect that Zhao Yun, who had always been invincible in the killing field, would still have such a shy side, so he couldn't help but laugh, and then left with Lu Bu.
When Zhao Yun was still at a loss, a ride also came in the distance. Although it is still a little far away, the graceful figure can already be seen, who else is it if it is not Lu Fei?
Lu Fei actually took the initiative to come over, Zhao Yun is face turned red again, and then hit the horse to catch up. The two figures disappeared under the city gates.
Shi Heng was killed, 3,000 Hanoi troops were killed and 7,000 captured. Wang Yi and the officials at all levels of Hedong County clearly saw this scene, and their hearts were shocked, needless to say.
Especially as Taishou Wangyi, in the first battle, he saw the huge gap between the soldiers he trained and Zhang Chao's army, with such an enemy, it seemed that it would be difficult for the Han family to recover. I couldn't help but be disheartened, and left Hedong a few days later, and there has been no news since.
In this battle, Fei not only solved the threat from Hanoi, but also gave a strong shock to the official spirit of the people in Hedong, so that their resistance was greatly suppressed.
After the battle in Wenxi County, Li Ru and Lu Bu stayed behind with the vanguard army to be responsible for cleaning and persuading other counties, while Zhao Yun and Lu Fei returned to Xihe with half of the money and prisoners from the treasury they had obtained in Hedong.
The news of the battle of Wenxi County reached the Xihe River, and some local forces that were still a little ready to move also became much quieter. Subsequently, Zhang Chao's order was conveyed. ordered Li Ru to be the Taishou of Hedong and Lu Bu to be the general of Hedong; Jia Xu was appointed as the county guard of Xihe, and Zhao Yun was appointed as the general of Xihe. It is imperative that the two places are completely in our hands within three months, that is, by the end of the year. At the same time, it is allowed to expand the vanguard army to 8,000 people, the Dragon and Tiger Army to 5,000 people, and other elite Class A infantry to solve 10,000 soldiers on the spot, 20,000 local Class B armed infantry, and 30,000 civilian Class C soldiers.
Whether it is the West River or the East of the River, they are all rich lands with large populations, and it is still possible to solve some problems of insufficient troops. Of course, Zhang Chao also divided his troops into three categories: A, B, and C.
Category A is the most elite corps, which can be attacked and defended, and can be raised at any time to reach serious injuries to expand the territory.
Category B is composed of a number of city defense troops, whose main task is to defend the city. Such an army cannot be expected to be used for long-distance attacks.
Category C is made up of men from some township regiments. The usual task is to be responsible for the security of a place, that is, the current police or militia. Help the people plough the fields during agricultural time, help transport supplies during wartime, and assist in defending the city. An army like this is basically composed of older men, and it belongs to the type of half-peasant and half-army.
Xihe, especially Hedong, was in the hands of Zhang Chao, and the world was shocked as soon as this incident came out.
Wang Kuang, who was closest to him, was naturally the one who suffered the most, he was discussing with Yu Yu of the Black Mountain Army how to fight Zhang Chao, but before he could think about it, the battle of Wenxi was over, and the loss of 10,000 soldiers made him a lot more honest.
After learning of this battle report, Zhang Yan of the Montenegrin Army also strictly ordered his subordinates not to embarrass Zhang Chao, this opponent is a little terrifying. Don't move until you're absolutely sure.
Cao Cao, who was temporarily set to stay in Chen, had a heavy expression on his face after hearing the news. At the beginning, due to the situation, Hedong was assigned to Zhang Chao, but it was just an expedient measure. I thought that these bones were too hard, and I couldn't gnaw them for a while. Unexpectedly, it was only a few months before he really became a thing.
Cao Cao, who was wary of Zhang Chaofa in his heart, also began to plan his own expansion journey.
After Yuan Shao from Jizhou heard this, he didn't seem to care, but he was a little happy. He has never taken Zhang Chao very seriously, perhaps in his opinion, the bigger the territory this person gets now, the more he will get by annexing it in the future. Now it's better to develop your own strength first.
Sun Jian, who was far away in Yangzhou and was fighting with Yuan Shu, heard about this incident, and couldn't help nodding and said, "Zhiyuan has such ability, and it is not surprising that he can do such a thing." ”
Liu Bei, who had already voted for Tao Qian in Xuzhou, was indeed bitter after hearing this, and he had already regarded Zhang Chao as a big enemy in his heart. In his opinion, it is possible to subvert the Han Dynasty that Zhang Chao and Cao Cao'er.
But no matter what kind of reaction the outside had, Zhang Chao did occupy Hedong, and also pacified Xihe County, making him one step closer to becoming a righteous and obedient state pastor.
After the matter in the south was settled, Zhang Chao focused his attention on Xinxing County and Dongping County in the neighboring Taiyuan County.
There are six counties in the entire state-of-the-state region. Taiyuan County is the capital of the country, which was taken by Guo Jia with great effort; Shangdang County is now half of itself and half of the Montenegrin Army. In view of the large number of opponents, it is not a one-day attack to destroy them, so they will be put aside for the time being; After Xihe County was taken, only the three counties of Xinxing, Dongping, and Yanmen remained.
