Chapter 153: Jingzhou Returns to the Great Han Kingdom (1)

Han and Wu have been facing each other in the Xiangfan area for ten days, both sides have a lot of losses, the damage of the Wu army is several times that of the Han army, but because of the Han River, the Wu army is powerful, and the Han army can only be disturbed by fireboats, and send down material support from the upstream.

Zhang Wei sat at the head of the city, pursing his lips and looking at the fire outside the city.

A soldier was helping him wrap the arrow wound on his thigh, the position of the arrow was fine, not the vital point, and through the two layers of heavy silk in his outer robe, one of the arrows he was in was only an inch into the flesh.

Take out the arrow, wash the wound with salt water first, that taste, make people just jump feet!

After applying the wound medicine to stop bleeding, his physical fitness is very strong and his recovery is very strong, so naturally he doesn't have to bother sewing up the wound, and he directly bandages the matter.

Some of Zhang Wei's personal soldiers have undergone professional training, this is the previous training period, Yang Yi deliberately requested, requiring the general's personal soldiers to have simple handling of the wounded, understand the map, know how to calculate mathematics, this is a mandatory requirement, if it is not up to standard, it is necessary to reduce their quota and send people from the Jinyi Guard to replace it.

This is naturally unwilling by the generals from the Shi family, Zhang Wei even has a relationship with his father, who was directly transferred from the medical staff, and now the team has also brought him five apprentices, all of whom have a certain level of first aid skills, and it is completely easy to deal with the arrow sores on Zhang Wei's legs.

And now they are under Zhang Wei's orders, and most of them are helping to deal with injuries and illnesses in the temporary infirmary, and they are going to win the favor of the soldiers for Zhang Wei.

Not only Zhang Wei's personal soldiers, but also his father Zhang Yi's, Guan Yi's, Huo Yi's, Jiang Wei, Luo Xian's and others' personal soldiers, all of them are such requirements.

This forces the generals to take the initiative to learn relevant knowledge, and no one wants to have a personal soldier from Jinyi by their side, because in that case, every move will definitely be recorded, and then I don't know where it was sent.

Zhang Wei in the south is not clear, but at least in the armies in the north, the generals will learn something from the soldiers, such as literacy, which has become a trend, you can send letters to soldiers, letters are cheap, according to the current cost of the Han Dynasty, a county of copper, the farthest is nothing more than a dozen copper, and you can also receive half of the postage subsidy for sending letters.

If you don't send a letter to your home for a long time, then the soldier can't be of great use, and it is one of them to be transferred to the rear, and it will gradually be retired.

There are other skills, such as teaching soldiers to read and write, which is also the work of the general's own soldiers, so that the general can gradually gain the support of the army.

Just like the current Zhang Wei, although he failed in the night attack and was hit by an arrow, the soldiers still maintained their respect for him, on the one hand, he Zhang Wei has the best archery skills in the entire northern territory, and on the other hand, it is the popularity that his personal soldiers have established for him.

"But in the end, I still suffered!" Zhang Wei pounded the city wall angrily.

After enduring for a few days and carefully probing that the Wu army was not ambushed, Zhang Weifang went out of the city to rob the camp, but what he didn't expect was that the Wu army had endured it for so many days, and the ambush set up had not been withdrawn, so that he had to retreat back to the city in embarrassment, but he still relied on his personal courage and successfully brought back most of the soldiers who followed him out of the city to fight.

On the last stretch of the road, Zhang Wei showed his martial courage like a ghost, leading two teams of crossbow archers to block the way, and with the faint starlight, he shot head-on at the Wu people who were chasing after him.

In the night, the archery technique was still as accurate as a god, and the arrows were exchanged for a scream, which scared off the pursuers and allowed Zhang Wei to return to the city.

Among the crossbow archers led by Zhang Wei, some of them were left behind to answer the archers just in case, and these dozens of archers were carefully selected from the thousands of soldiers under him, and their archery skills were all first-class.

Relying on their wonderful performance at the last moment, as well as his personal bravery, the morale of the city still exists, in addition, before the night attack, they also collected a batch of supplies, and had a batch of arrows in their hands, so that they had more money to defend their hands.

It was also because of this that the materials could be delivered safely, which made Zhang Wei feel that the Wu people might have taken their guard down, so there was a failure in this camp robbery.

Zhang Wei is very grateful for some of the knowledge he has learned, and Yang Yi has told these sergeants in military science some battle examples, and explained in detail Sun Tzu's Art of War.

Sun Tzu said: Those who are good at fighting in the past are invincible first, and then they can be defeated by the enemy. You can't win against yourself, but you can win against the enemy. Therefore he who fights well can be invincible, and he who cannot make the enemy invincible. Therefore, it is said: victory can be known, but not done.

Victory or undefeated, which is more controllable? In Sun Wu's view, the uncontrollability of victory is greater, there are many factors that affect victory, the key factor depends on whether the opponent makes mistakes or not, which is not subject to our will for the transfer, which has a great deal of chance, and undefeated is within the controllable range of our side, which we achieve through hard work.

Therefore, the first goal of the war is not to win, but to maintain one's own undefeated based on reality.

The probability of winning can be assessed through the temple calculation model, which is knowable, but to achieve victory, it is "in the people who plan things, and in the sky".

The slogan of victory is only a means to encourage subordinates to inspire fighting spirit, but whether it can be truly achieved cannot be forced.

So what should be done in a specific operation? Sun Wu's method was: first be invincible, and then wait for the enemy to be victorious.

The first is to adopt a steady strategy and keep yourself undefeated (the first is invincible). It is necessary to assess risks, fully consider unfavorable factors, and make good plans to avoid risks and prevent failures.

If the enemy is invulnerable, then don't reluctantly attack, but need to hold back, wait for the time when the opponent has omissions and flaws, and win with one blow.

The third is to do something and not to do something, and while waiting, you can use the layout to induce the enemy to make mistakes. To lure them with profit, to avoid them with harm, to make the enemy move, as long as the enemy moves, it is easy to make mistakes.

Such a detailed explanation made Zhang Wei not have much damage this time, but even with such a detailed explanation, Zhang Wei did not make good use of it, he was still driven by emotions and knew his task, but he still went to take risks.

But this point, waiting for the war, naturally has a punishment, the reward is a reward, the punishment is a punishment, and now in the Han army, the division is very clear!

Although there were losses, he also figured out the details of the Wu people, and gave Wu Jun a sweetness, so that he could contain Wu Jun to fight here for a few more days, waiting for the rear army to come - thinking of this, Zhang Wei was relieved, tonight was not in vain, and he could give these Wu thieves some color tomorrow.

Zhang Wei snorted heavily at the enemy camp outside the city, wanting to break through his city, but also looked at the longbow in his hand and said yes.

In the night, Tao Jun and Wei Qiu each sat on the stone, the fire in front of the two of them dispelled the cold in the Wudang Mountains in September, and they took a total of 5,000 Wudang Fei Army, and now they are more than 100 miles away from Fancheng.

Before, they first arrived at Deng County, stationed for a day, investigated intelligence, and knew that Deng County was safe, and then ran west to Wudang Mountain overnight.

About Deng County, "Shan Hai Jing" and "Historical Records" are recorded, Xia, Shang, Western Zhou, Spring and Autumn early vassal states of the capital of Deng State in Deng County, Deng State also has a vassal state of the State of Lu, Deng State and then to the south of a hundred miles away, King Wen of Chu in the twelfth year of Chu State to destroy Deng State, ending the history of Deng State for 1274 years, and then Chu State in Deng County to take the meaning of "Heshi Fengdeng" to set up "Suiyi", King Chu Huai 17 years of South Korea attacked Chu, captured Suiyi; In the eleventh year of King Qin Zhao, Qin defeated Korea and took the throne.

Sui then for the Qin land, Qin Zhao King 35 years, set up Nanyang County (Zhiwan), Deng County subordinated, at that time Deng County has three counties, namely Sui County, Shandu County and Deng County.

In the second year of Han Jian'an, Cao Cao led the army to launch the "Battle of Wancheng", and surrounded Zhang and embroidered in the city. Due to the smooth shipping of Deng County, the Turbulent River flows into the Han River through the Xinyehui Bai River and then passes through the Yangtze River, in the thirteenth year of Jian'an, Cao Cao excavated the grain river in the southern suburbs of the city, and used Dengzhou as the rear granary to transport grain and grass for the "Battle of Red Cliffs" and supply the front battle.

This grain river can be used by them, so that they unknowingly go around to the Wudang Mountain on the other side of the Han River.

You must know this time, if you took the official road at the beginning, you should have appeared under Fancheng by now.

However, Tao Jun and Wei Qiu did not have the intention of directly rescuing Fancheng, Tao Jun had already inquired, although Zhang Wei was trapped in Fancheng, it would be best if he could help Zhang Wei relieve the siege, and if he blocked the retreat of the thief army and closed the door to fight the dogs, then there would not be much suspense in the battle of Jingzhou this time.

There are many mountain roads in the upper reaches of the Han River, even if you don't take the official road in the north, there are still other roads that can lead to the Xiangzhou Plain, and it is not in a hurry to rescue Zhang Wei in Fancheng, but if you can block the enemy in the Xiangzhou Plain, it is the wishful thinking of Tao Jun and Wei Qiu.

Both of them were cautious in nature, and before they set out, they had already sent capable men to survey the road, and now some continued to test forward, while others came back to report the news, at least in the places they had already explored, and there was no need to worry about the ambush of the Wu army.

Now Tao Jun is pursuing more military exploits, so that he can become a general as soon as possible, unlike now, just a partial general, can only be used as a vanguard, if he wants to rely on the Tao family's Yu Yin, then his best and safest choice is to go to Jiaozhou, but Tao Jun thinks that he doesn't need to fight with his brother for those resources, so he won't go to Jiaozhou, and Jiaozhou, there may not be many opportunities in the future.

He felt that his brother Tao Huang was enough to crisscross Jiaozhou, and he didn't need him to be a pawn, he could naturally be in the army, with his own ability, to worship the general!

"I don't know why the envoy gave the credit to the Baiyi people this time."

At this time, in the mountains and forests of Jiaozhou, Fan Changsheng was holding a thick branch to carry the fire, turning the fire a little more vigorous, his voice was a little more respectful, Tao Huang's means of dealing with Wuhu today made him breathtaking, but he still didn't understand Tao Huang's intention to make this Baiyi chieftain the vanguard,

"The sword that makes the king of the day, do not let the former class be far away, if this merit is reported, Your Majesty will be happy......"

Fan Changsheng was very puzzled, if this merit is preached, then the words will be sung, and maybe he will be able to seal the marquis.

Although Yan Han is now, he can't be a marquis without military merits, but if he can do things that are far away, it is enough to talk about military merits!

"Everything is based on the overall situation, and giving him credit is to let him continue to submit to our country, and it will be easier to transfer troops...... Otherwise, how can Jiaozhou be pacified quickly, His Majesty intends to stabilize Jiaozhou this year, and in the coming year, he will inevitably have a decisive battle with the Sun family and determine the ownership of Jiangdong. ”

This credit Tao Huang does not want, if it is in a tribe that has not yet decided to belong, when he encounters an envoy from an enemy country, Tao Huang will definitely kill him directly with a sword, and he will be happy to accept the credit that follows.

But since the Tao family was driven and killed by Sun Hao last year, the south was handed over to Jinyiwei, and several chiefs of the Baiyi tribe that Jinyiwei had brought in by Jinyiwei in every possible way have been regarded as courtiers of the Han Dynasty.

And Wu Hu, as a Han Chen, his wavering attitude will definitely affect the Jinyiwei and Huo family who recommended him, so once Tao Jun kills the envoy of Wu in the Baiyi tribe, he can't let Wuhu endorse him, then he will not be praised, but Jinyiwei and the Huo family will be held accountable for the crime of bullying the monarch before.

"So this credit can only be given to Wuhu." Tao Huang also set aside the fire at this time, keeping it on the current fire, and then said to Fan Changsheng, "Mr. Fan, rest early, you have to get up early tomorrow." ”

About 4,000 or so Wu soldiers are stationed in the camp on the north bank of the Han River, and Fancheng, two miles away, there are nearly 2,000 people besieging, but their troops are not enough at all, the Wu people are not good at attacking the city, rushing up, shooting a few arrows, and then retreating, this is considered to be the completion of an attack, in the absence of enough people and siege equipment, there is only this kind of attack that can be done at present.

In the past few decades, the Wu people have had a lot of good opportunities, but none of them have succeeded, especially when Emperor Sun Wu was there, when Sun Wu backstabbed the Han State, it was nothing more than Huainan where the Wei State was heavily armed, Sun Wu still couldn't beat it, and he also fell into the name of Sun 100,000.

This name comes from the Battle of Xiaoyaojin: after Cao Cao pacified Dongchuan, Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, in order to relieve the pressure on Xichuan, proposed to exchange the three counties of Jingnan for Sun Quan to attack Hefei in an attempt to shift Cao Cao's attention to the east, Sun Quan then killed 100,000 soldiers to Hefei, and the beginning was very smooth, first breaking the periphery of Hefei, and then marching into Hefei.

At that time, the chief general of Hefei was Zhang Liao, and the two deputy generals were Li Dian and Le Jin, with only seven or eight thousand troops, Zhang Liao selected eight hundred death squads to take advantage of Sun Quan's unstable foothold, and rushed into Sun Quan's Chinese army in the early morning.

Zhang Liao rode back and forth at the foot of the mountain, Sun Quan did not dare to fight, and later saw that Zhang Liao's troops were only a few hundred people, so the Wu army in turn surrounded Zhang Liao's 800 death squads.

Zhang Liao Liwei's goal has been achieved, so he led 800 people to retreat and break through, rushing back and forth to kill several times, the Wu army was afraid of its bravery, no one dared to resist, so Zhang Liao safely broke through and returned to Hefei City.

Then Sun Quan's army attacked the city, who knew that the city wall of Hefei was strong, Zhang Liao and others defended the city properly, Sun Quan fought for more than ten days and failed to take it, and the epidemic began to spread in the army, Sun Quan had to order the class to return in vain.

But I don't know if Sun Quan was careless or what was going on, the army had already boarded the ship and left, and Sun Quan himself was delayed, with only Lu Meng, Ling Tong, Chen Wu, Jiang Qin and others and more than 1,000 guards accompanying him.

Zhang Liao saw a rare opportunity, so he and Li Dian and Le Jin led the defenders to pursue Sun Quan of the palace.

Ling Tong and others led 300 dead soldiers to fight desperately to protect Sun Quan's retreat to Xiaoyaojin Ferry, but the bridge on the ferry had been destroyed by Cao's army, and Zhang Liao's pursuers were approaching, and Sun Quan was at a loss.

Later, holding the saddle, let the horse retreat, and then fly longitudinally forward, so that Kan Lian people took the horse to the south bank, and all the three hundred dead soldiers behind the Dongwu Palace were killed, and Chen Wu, one of the twelve tiger ministers in Jiangdong, was also killed, leaving only Ling Tongren sneaking back to the south bank.

In this battle, Zhang Liao once broke Sun Quan's army of 100,000 with 800 warriors, so the two of them also had a nickname, Zhang Liao Zhang 800 and Sun Quan Sun 100,000, just a prestige and a depression.

Of course, in addition to Zhang Babai, King Wu of Great Wei also gave his enemies many nicknames:

Sun Zhongmou once led an army of 100,000 to invade Guangling, Guangling only had about 10,000 men, Taishou Chen Deng Chen Yuanlong was quite strategic, first showed weakness to the enemy and then led troops to raid, defeated Sun Quan; Later, he used the strategy of raising fire and suspicious soldiers to defeat Sun Quan's army again and kill thousands of enemies, so Chen Deng was called Chen Wanji.

Sun Zhongmou once led an army of 100,000 to invade Hefei, Hefei was under the rule of Yangzhou, at this time Yangzhou assassin Liu Fu Liu Yuanying had died, and Cao Cao had just suffered the defeat of Chibi, for a time could not draw reinforcements to meet Hefei, only sent 3,000 people to Runan Zhang Xi.

When Liu Fu was in office, he was very careful to govern the place, and won the love of the people, Sun Quan came to attack, and the soldiers and civilians in the city remembered Liu Fu's benefits, and worked together to defend the city, and Liu Fu presided over the repair of the city defense facilities and strategic materials that played a great role in making Sun Quan unable to capture the city.

At the same time, Jiang Ji and Jiang Zitong wrote a fraudulent letter to Yangzhou City, saying that tens of thousands of reinforcements from Zhang Xi in Runan had arrived and needed to be sent to greet them and prepare for internal and external attacks.

Deliberately let Wu Jun capture the letter, Sun Quan believed it to be true, set a fire as a cover and retreated, therefore, Liu Fu was called Liu Undead, and Jiang Ji was called Jiang Yiyi.

Sun Zhongmou led an army of 100,000 to invade Hefei again, and at this time, Hefei's garrison was full of favors and Boning led dozens of warriors, and took advantage of the night to touch a fire to burn the Wu army camp, Sun Quan was so anxious that he simply retreated; Therefore, full pets are called full dozens.

Sun Zhongmou also led an army of 100,000 to meet the attacking Wei army in Chaohu, and heard that the Wei general Zang Ba Zang Xuangao led reinforcements to come, so he quickly retreated, Zang Ba took advantage of the situation to pursue, and won a complete victory, so Zang Ba is called Zang Legend.

Sun Zhongmou once again led an army of 100,000 to invade the Wei State, but this time he didn't want to fight Hefei, and chose Jiangxia County, an important town in Jingzhou, as the target.

Jiangxia Taishou Wen Pingwen Zhongye learned that Sun Quan's army was coming, and it was inconvenient to meet the battle in a hurry, so he simply ordered the soldiers and civilians in the city not to show their heads, open the city gates, and sleep in the Taishou Mansion.

Seeing this, Sun Quan said to his subordinates: Wen Ping is not an idle person, Cao Cao Cao and Cao Pi now Cao Rong value him very much, and now he deliberately makes this appearance, there must be a big conspiracy, and then he withdraws the army, so Wen Ping is called Wen Sleep.

In addition, there is Gongsun Yuan, Sun Quan sent 2,000 people to escort gifts and reward him, so that he could raise troops from Liaodong to attack Cao Wei, but Gongsun Yuan unceremoniously even 2,000 people were incorporated together, so it was called Gongsun Minus 2,000.

This is the story of the new book released by the Han Dynasty recently, originally such a story, because of the alliance, it is naturally impossible to issue, and now it should naturally be passed on, and now the commander of the Wu army who lives under Xiangyang City, Wu Liang Wang Sun Yan, looking at these books, is crying and laughing!
