Chapter 620: Iron Wall Zhang He
No matter how hot the Han Dynasty was, the Xiongnu Yufuluo had already occupied Yanmen Pass, and he personally stayed at Yanmen Pass to ensure the way back. Then he ordered the right virtuous king Adona to lead 20,000 troops to directly attack the front of the pass, and the military division Zhang Yang led 30,000 troops to attack the pass behind the pass. In order to prevent Zhou Yu's army from daring to come to support from Ningwu Pass, he sent his first general, Doluo, to lead 30,000 troops to ambush Zhou Yu's reinforcements, and gave Zuoxian King Mo Li a death order, not everyone attacked Ningwu Pass, so that Zhou Yu's army had no time to return to the division.
The autumn wind is bleak and bleak in the pass, Zhang He, Pei Yuanshao, Tai Shici stood at the head of the city to inspect the city defense, and now there are Xiongnu army activities inside and outside, and the people nearby either hide in the pass, or quickly flee to the south of Bingzhou. There are only 20,000 troops left in the partial pass, and 5,000 original border troops are left, although they have a city wall to refuse to accept them, but they are empty by 50,000 Huns inside and outside, and the situation is also very depressed. Tai Shi Ci originally followed Zhou Yu to prepare for a raid on the camp of Zuo Xian Wang Mo Li, but Zhou Yu was worried that Zhang He and Pei Yuanshao were a little difficult to fight against the Xiongnu army, so he sent Tai Shi Ci to help in the battle. They received Zhou Yu's military order to hold the pass for ten days, and Zhou Yu would not send a soldier to help them within ten days, in addition to having enough food and grass for half a month, 25,000 men and horses must hold the siege of 50,000 troops, which is also a severe test for Zhang He.
"The lord's military order is to let our 25,000 army hold the pass for ten days, and now in addition to the 20,000 elites of the Northern Army, the remaining 5,000 border troops are mostly hereditary soldiers, but they are also mostly old, weak, sick and disabled, and there are less than 3,000 soldiers who can fight. Outside the partial pass, there is the right virtuous king Adona to lead the troops, inside the pass is the former Chen Liutai Shou Zhang Yang led the troops, one person fights bravely and one is scheming, the city wall of the partial pass has been in disrepair for many years, and most places are newly remedied recently. There are less than 30,000 people left in the city, and the grain and grass left by the lord for us have a month's supply, but the lord only let us guard for ten days, indicating that the Huns will attack the pass at all costs during these ten days. Now Yanmen Pass has fallen into the hands of the Huns, and almost the gate of the Central Plains has been opened, but the Xiongnu's Shan Yu Yufu Luo gave up the opportunity to continue to go south in order to take revenge, and turned around and wanted to pull out the two passes of Ningwu Pass first. In Ningwu Pass, General Gan Ning led 20,000 troops to guard against Zuoxian King Mo Li, and there were only 50,000 horses around the lord, of which less than 30,000 soldiers could fight. Now General Zhang Liao, General Gao Shun, General Ding Feng, is leading troops to help, and according to General Zhang Liao, who has the fastest marching speed, it will take 20 days to reach Guanwai. The Xiongnu army still has about 170,000, in addition to the 20,000 left behind at Yanmen Pass, almost all the 150,000 Xiongnu troops are operating near Ningwu Pass. It's just that if they want to go to Ningwu Pass from the Guannei, they must take the side pass, and now there is only a 30,000 army in the side pass, and in fact, there is a large army to guard against the arrival of the lord's reinforcements. This battle is not easy to fight-" Zhang He became the commander of the Biguan this time, but he felt that this burden was really not light, he understood Zhou Yu's intentions, that is, to let themselves drag most of the Xiongnu's men, they gathered superior forces to eat the Xiongnu's Zuoxian Wang, only in this way can they have the strength to fight a decisive battle with the Xiongnu, otherwise they can only defend passively. More than 10,000 Xiongnu were killed outside the pass, and all the prisoners left behind were pressed to build the city wall in the pass.
The most fortunate thing for Zhang He is that he did not follow Yuan Shao, when Yuan Shao was stationed in Jizhou, he thought that the Yuan family gate valve four generations and three dukes, the most poor can also mix a good background, under Yuan Shao's command, he was the youngest but was also entrusted with important tasks, what high-ranking officials have to ride a horse to ride a good prestige, but later after the defeat in Youzhou, he was captured by Zhou Yu, and later he was brought back to Yangzhou What he saw and heard, and gradually he understood what was the most sincere smile. This time the Xiongnu invaded the Central Plains and not to mention that Yuan Shu made a thing, when Yuan Shao ordered Yan Liangwen to withdraw from Yanmen Pass without saying a word, it was the most difficult for him to figure it out, and the state is now your Yuan Shao's state, Zhou Yu traveled thousands of miles to help expel the Xiongnu, Yuan Shao did not enthusiastically help, but made this move that was equivalent to betraying the country, and now the Hun army is coming to the city to create such a situation, Yuan Shao is the biggest sinner. Regarding Yan Liangwen's ugly betrayal of his comrades-in-arms, Zhang He felt that as long as they encountered a battle of life and death, they must not be let go.
"The lord took the risk to drive out Hu Lu, how could I be too Shi Ci to be a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, I was originally going to defect to Cao Cao in Xu Du, but I heard that the Northern Army conscripted troops to crusade against the Huns. After settling my mother, I came alone, and my dream was to gallop on the battlefield to protect my family and defend the country. Don't say that there are 50,000 Hun soldiers outside the pass, and I will kill them all - as long as I report the grace of the master! "Tai Shi Ci belongs to the general type of general, when he defected to the Northern Army, Zhou Yu arranged for someone to settle his wife in Yangzhou to serve, so that he had no worries, not only that, he was a little-known soldier was promoted to a general by Zhou Yu, and repeatedly let him fight for meritorious service, the most shocking thing for him was that Zhou Yu's skills were not weaker than himself, and they did not win or lose in fifty rounds. The death of a confidant is a very simple truth, and Tai Shi Ci must be smeared with liver and brain.
"We have to hold the pass for ten days, and we can't fight hard - 20,000 horses and the Huns' iron cavalry are not enough to plug our teeth, I mean we can't fight the enemy. It is necessary to find a way to delay the time, first, to ensure that the remote pass cannot be lost, second, to destroy the enemy's living forces, and third, to strengthen the city wall and prepare for the worst. Pei Yuanshao followed Zhou Yu to fight in the east and west, his temperament became more and more calm, originally he was the person Zhang Jiao dared to entrust, and now there are more and more generals under Zhou Yu's command, Guan Hai guards Guangxi County, Guangdong, Zhou Cang follows Huang Zhong to guard Xiangyang County, he has been following Zhou Yu around, his force value can only be regarded as a second-rate general, but his stability is what Zhou Yu values most.
"Both of you are right—let's have some fun with them! Let these wolf cubs know what the most gorgeous city defense is. Ziyi, you need to select a thousand elite cavalry from the army to stand by, and wait until the shadow discovers the Huns' grain routes, then it is Ziyi's time for you to show your skills. As for the right virtuous king Adona outside the gate, he first told him to wait, and said that Zhang Yang was an old acquaintance in our army, and he wanted to talk about the old days after not seeing him for a long time, and he temporarily hung up a war exemption card for them! Zhang Yang, this guy has done traitor work, but it is very nourishing, let's use the name of the lord to invite him to see him before the battle, right? "Since Zhang He is defending the city, he wants to make the enemy tired, send Tai Shi Ci to attack the grain route of the Xiongnu army, and he wants to repair a book to invite Zhou Yu to come and publicize it for a while. The Xiongnu army may not really be relieved that he is leading the troops alone, after all, Zhang Yang is a Han Chinese.
"Bang Bang Bang - Brilliant Scheme!" Outside the big tent, I remembered Guo Jia's voice, Zhang He, and their stunned kung fu Zhou Yu and Guo Jia walked in, it seemed that they had been listening outside for a long time. The war is coming, Zhang He and they are facing the greatest pressure, Zhou Yu and Guo Jia are not a little relieved not to come in person, the defense of the pass is very important, the longer it is guarded, the more unfavorable it is for the Huns, there is news that Cao Cao has led 50,000 horses to the north to reinforce, plus Zhang Liao, Gao Shun Ding Feng's men and horses to destroy the Huns is not a problem, and there is also news about Zhao Yun on the grassland.
