Chapter 718: Fierce General Zhang Xutuo (Asking for Recommendation Votes)
During the Spring Festival of the eleventh year of the Great Cause, Lin Sha was on the way.
killed dozens of Turkic masters, and killed dozens of good players in Wagang, and at the same time forced Wagang's 'pretty military division' Shen Luoyan to flee in embarrassment, and the bandits in the Jianghuai territory have basically been dealt with.
Even if there was a repetition later, without the cooperation of the Turkic side, the two giants of Wagang, Zu Junyan and Shen Luoyan, were helpless.
And the Turkic side wants to get the news, and then urgently dispatch experts to respond, which is not something that can be done in a short time.
Besides, he lost dozens of good players at once, including masters like 'Double Gun Talk' Yan Lihui and 'Lion' Tiexiong, and it is unknown whether Shi Bi Na has the courage to continue to implement the tactics of adding fuel.
Unlike the Central Plains masters, who are like carp crossing the river, it is really not so easy to cultivate a first-class master who has stepped into the innate world.
Since Shen Luoyan and the others couldn't make any waves for the time being, Lin Sha was not interested in continuing to stay in Maodong in the Jianghuai region, and Emperor Yang Guang of Sui sent down one holy decree after another, urging him to return to the Eastern Capital as soon as possible.
So, he refused the earnest retention of an official in Pengcheng County, and took nearly 5,000 Youzhou cavalry under his command and nearly 3,000 Sui soldiers under Qin Qiong to rush through the winter against the wet and cold wind.
Needless to say, the hardships of the land march were not to mention, and it took nearly two months for the Youzhou army under Lin Sha and the Sui army under Qin Qiong to arrive in Henan.
In addition to the envoys sent by Emperor Yang Guang of Sui, they were greeted by the news that Zhang Xutuo, the commander of Rongyang, led 10,000 Sui troops and fought against the Wagang army.
"The situation looks a little weird!"
In the tent of the temporary marching commander, Lin Sha carefully looked at the topographic map hanging on the wall, and the wooden pole stained with charcoal ash. After pointing and drawing on the map for a while, he suddenly shook his head and said.
"How. The general is not optimistic about this battle? ”
Qin Qiong also happened to come to ask for peace, and saw that Lin Sha was deducing and calculating the battle between the Sui army's Zhang Xutuo Department and the Wagang army. Immediately dissatisfied, he spoke.
After months of getting along, Qin Qiong had a general understanding of Lin Sha's character. It is true that General Zhengbei is strict in governing the army, but as long as you are reasonable, he can still listen to the opinions of others.
"Indeed!"
Lin Sha didn't know much about Zhang Xutuo's experience, but he also knew that this general of the late Sui Dynasty Guozhu was killed by Wagang Li Mi this year.
Li Mi also gained a great prestige from this, and had the capital and reputation to fight against Zhai Rang.
Zhang Xutuo is really a rare fierce general, and throughout his life's combat experience, there are almost few defeats. Such a fierce general is placed in the Sui and Tang dynasties, which is also extremely valuable.
"Why did the general say this, didn't Zhang Gong lead the army to win a series of battles at this time?"
As a fierce general under Zhang Xutuo, he is known as the three tiger generals with Luo Shixin and Cheng Yanjin, and naturally worships Zhang Xutuo tightly. Although I don't want to offend the general of Zhengbei easily, I don't have to worry about anything when it comes to psychology.
"The Kowagang army has also been defeated too neatly!"
Lin Sha smiled lightly, with his status at this time, he naturally had channels to know the specific details of the battle on the front line, and pointed to the map on the wall in a solemn tone.
Seeing what Qin Qiong wanted to say. Lin Sha chuckled and waved his hand: "It's not too late for you to say it after I finish speaking, I have carefully understood Wagang's record before, although I have been defeated by Zhang Xu many times, but every time it is just a small defeat that does not hurt my muscles and bones!" ”
Qin Qiong was stunned when she heard this. It's really true to think about it!
Although Zhai Rang's military command talent is not good, his character is very cautious, and he treats a famous general like Zhang Xutuo. That's even more cautious and cautious.
Otherwise, Wagang has a geographical advantage. But if you want to thrive under Zhang Xutuo's repeated oppression, I have to say that Zhai Rang's caution has played a great role.
This led to the fact that the defeat of the Wagang army would not be a big defeat. Once you win, it's an exciting win.
"Besides, Zhai Rang has Li Mi by his side to help with advice!"
Lin Sha raised his voice slightly, and said: "Looking at Li Mi's actions, his performance as the mastermind was extremely good, and you can know a thing or two from the strategy he formulated for Yang Xuangan at the beginning!" ”
As he spoke, he picked up the long wooden pole in his hand, drew a long curved line on the simple map hanging on the wall, and explained: "General Qin, look at this, Zhang Tongshou has arrived near the Dahai Temple at this time, far away from Rongyang for a long distance, and if something happens, I'm afraid that it will be too late for the follow-up people to support!" ”
"General Zhang is indeed dangerous at this time!"
Looking at a long curve drawn with black charcoal strips, and then measuring the distance with his fingers, his face suddenly became very serious, and he looked at Lin Sha with a request in his tone, and said, "General, ...... you look?"
"Don't worry, since I have already brought it up, I will definitely not let it go!"
Lin Sha chuckled and shook his head, put down the long wooden pole in his hand and said, "I just don't know how many people and horses Wagang dispatched at this time. If there are too many people, I'm afraid we won't have enough manpower! ”
Qin Qiong was silent, compared to the tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of troops of the Wagang rebels at every turn, the 5,000 men and horses on hand of the general Lin Sha of the Great Expedition, plus the nearly 3,000 brothers on his hands, there were only nearly 8,000 men and horses, and he really did not dare to guarantee how effective the Wagang rebels would be.
"The current situation is unknown, let's only try the means to encircle Wei and save Zhao first!"
Lin Sha spoke slowly, instantly reinvigorating Qin Qiong's face full of anticipation, and he said with a smile: "It doesn't have to be like this, let's just give it a try, whether it has any effect and whether my guess is correct or not is very good!" ”
"If you don't try it, how do you know if it works?"
Qin Qiong didn't have the heart to pay attention to this, Zhang Xutuo might be in danger, although he still had doubts in his heart, he had to do something just in case.
"Okay, let's divide into two ways!"
Lin Sha was not polite, and said directly: "General Qin, you will lead your three thousand brothers, and I will allocate enough military horses for you, and you will take your brothers to attack Wagang Benzhai as quickly as possible!" ”
"Ah, go straight to Wagang Village!"
Seeing Qin Qiong's face turned blue, he said angrily: "It's not that you are going to be sent to death, but to make a tentative attack, take a look at the defensive strength of Wagang Benzhai!" ”
Qin Qiong was a little relieved at this time, as long as he was not sent to death.
"If Wagang really arranges a conspiracy net against General Zhang, then the strength of this village will be insufficient!"
Lin Sha's eyes flickered slightly, and he said in a condensed voice: "On the contrary, ......"
"Otherwise, we miscalculated, and I immediately ran away with my brother!"
Qin Qiong had a confident smile on her face and answered unceremoniously.
"Exactly!"
Lin Sha smiled and nodded, and said in a deep voice: "If you have the chance, you can rush, if you don't have a chance to wander around the periphery a few more times, it's good to see the specific strength and number of people in Wagang Village!" ”
"Don't worry, General, other Qin can't do it, and the ability to charge into battle as a scout is still not lacking!"
Qin Qiong patted her chest and said with a confident expression.
"With General Qin's words, I'm relieved!"
Lin Sha was not polite, and immediately ordered directly: "The soldiers are fast, just in case, General Qin will set off as soon as your soldiers are ready!" ”
"No!"
……
An hour later, the temporary camp of the general of Zhengbei suddenly opened the camp gate, and the three thousand cavalry slowly came out and quickly turned around, and rushed towards the Wagang village.
"Alright, don't look at it, it's time for us to go!"
Retracting his gaze, Lin Sha said softly to several cronies around him.
"Don't worry, general, this time we must let those Wagang thieves know that they are powerful!"
"Hehe, it should have been like this a long time ago, our Youzhou Army has never been afraid of anyone!"
"Haha, it's the so-called number one thief in the world for a while!"
“……”
The generals around him talked and laughed easily, and then the horns in the camp sounded in unison, and after everything was cleaned up, five thousand iron horsemen pulled out the camp and swept away in the direction of the Great Sea Temple.
At this time, the Sui army of Zhang Xutuo was indeed in a bitter battle!
As Lin Sha said, he was too confident, and as a result, he plunged headlong into the big trap laid for him by the Wagang Army.
At this time, remorse was to no avail, looking at the dense and surging Wagang thieves around him, Zhang Xutuo was bitter in his heart, but the expression on his face was not moving, and he tried to command his soldiers to form a formation to protect themselves, and then looked for an opportunity to get out of the encirclement.
"Haha, Zhang Xutuo, you are now a turtle in an urn, why don't you surrender soon. My big dragon head has promised that if you surrender the clay pot, you will immediately be able to sit in the third position! ”
In the Wagang formation, there were loud sergeants laughing and shouting again and again.
Seeing that the momentum of the Sui army dropped by a level with this shout, and the atmosphere became strange in an instant, Zhang Xutuo suddenly became furious, and the waves rolled like thunder, and he shouted solemnly: "The Wagang thieves are rampant, I, Zhang Xutuo, am only a ghost who dies in battle, not a kneeling slave, and if I have the ability, I will take my head!" ”
"Wow, wow, Zhang Xutuo, you dare to be tough when you get to this point, Uncle Wagang is now here to take the dog's life!"
A thunderous roar sounded on the battlefield where the heavens were screaming, and at the same time, the bowstring trembled and even sharp arrows shot out, as if they had eyes, bypassing the soldiers on both sides who were strangled together, and instantly crossed a distance of dozens of zhang and went straight to the vital point of Zhang Xutuo's upper body.
"Carving insect skills also dare to show ugliness!"
Zhang Xutuo sneered, the sword in his hand flickered, and the fierce sword shot out, and instantly slashed the flying arrows off the horse.
The whole body is domineering and fierce, like the god of war, and the breath of the first-class peak is full of awe-inspiring.
"Ah, Zhang Xutuo, you are so rampant, take my uncle Wang as a shot!"
In the midst of the chaos, a white-robed general on a white horse swooped down with a spear.
"Zhang Sutuna is here, and Wagang Shan Xiong is here!"
Behind Wang Bodang, a strong and powerful general rode his horse and galloped to fight Zhang Xutuo with Wang Bodang.
"Haha, it's good, the Wagang thieves will die!"
Zhang Xutuo has a flying fighting spirit, and a big knife crisscrosses with one enemy and two without losing the slightest advantage, showing the demeanor of the fierce generals of the Sui army...... (To be continued.) )
