Chapter 109: Breaking the Siege (1)
About a week later, Shen Huili and her scouts had already engaged in a contact battle with Qiu Liju's side. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Zhao Yun is powerful, one person with more than ten scouts killed the scout team of more than fifty people on the opposite side and fled in all directions. Later, the enemy sent hundreds of cavalry to chase and intercept, but Zhao Yun easily got rid of it. But in general, the arrival of Shen Huili's side, the enemy must have already known. However, because Shen Huili was an infantryman, Qiu Liju and Zhang Chun didn't take them seriously.
Although one of Zhang Chun's teams was pitted by the cavalry led by Cai Rong, he also knew that in fact, the group of women did not have many cavalry in their hands, and the infantry had never fought with his side at all. Infantry against cavalry, to put it bluntly, in a conventional battle, more than a thousand cavalry can easily kill, and 5,000 infantry cannot find the north. Therefore, Shen Huili's more than 5,000 infantry has become a good place to brush up on combat exploits, so the generals under the two of them have asked to ask for battle, hoping to brush up some merit and be promoted.
Zhang Chun originally wanted to take revenge, but now he is also taking refuge in Qiu Liju after all, and he has no soldiers. It didn't seem appropriate to speak directly, so I had to swallow this breath and watch Qiu Liju's men compete for this good opportunity. But who is Qiu Liju, after thinking about it for a while, he has an idea.
"Ahem, I think it's overkill for thousands of infantry generals. This kind of small credit should be given to the people, and you adults should not compete with children. "Qiu Liju has two sons, one of whom is a biological named Lou Ban, and there is a subordinate son who is this Badun. Badun's ability is still good, and Qiu Liju likes this slave very much. Later, when Qiu Liju died, he also let Badun manage his three kings' subordinates. When a group of generals heard this, they had nothing to do. But people let their sons take credit, and they can't say anything. So they all said goodbye early, and only Badun stayed.
"Father!" Badun knelt on one knee, clenched his fists and said, "Give me a thousand cavalry, and I will definitely kill them to the ground!" ”
Qiu Liju looked at Badun with a smile, then pulled him up, and said to Badun seriously: "Now we have nearly 20,000 cavalry here, but only more than 6,000 are our own troops. This is a good opportunity to take power, I will give you three thousand cavalry, and I will consider you taking my place after the heyday, after all, my own son is still too young, and I am very relieved of you. ”
He cried out with red eyes and knelt on the ground. "Father! It's hard to repay your kindness, if you can't win all this time, don't raise your head to see you! ”
"Well, I believe in my eye for people. But you still have to be more careful, since they dare to come with 5,000 people to relieve the siege of Guanzi City, then there will definitely be dependence. Although our team is all aimed at trapping Gongsun Zhan, everyone is still selfish after all. So you have to win this time, and you have to win beautifully! This will boost the morale of our besieging Gongsun Zhan, and I will arrange for grain and grass to be provided to you first. Hum! This Gongsun Chan can also carry it, we don't have enough food outside, I didn't expect him to be so calm inside! Qiu Liju was in a broken thought, after all, there were 20,000 soldiers, and the consumption of this day was also a headache for Qiu Liju. Recently, the surrounding villages and towns have almost robbed it, and it is estimated that they will have to borrow grain from Xiangping. However, since the enemy's team came from Xiangping, it must have been controlled by the Han army. Our team couldn't divide their forces to attack another wall that was taller than Pipe City, so now they are facing a food crisis on their side as well.
"Our workhorse has been discovered." Cai Rong took Zhao Yun's report and said to Shen Huili and a few people. "Now that the enemy has obviously sent hundreds of scouts around us, there is a lot of pressure on Zhao Yun's side, but it is estimated that the other side will soon send a team to destroy us." Finally, the infantry was going to be used against the cavalry, so Cai Rong's heart was still very nervous.
Shen Huili thought for a while, and then asked Cai Rong: "How many troops do you think they can have when they come over for the first time?" ”
"Hmm. There is still my judgment under my command, and judging from the number of scouts around, it is estimated that there are about 2,000 to 4,000, and there will definitely be no more. I believe that no matter how wasteful they are, they probably won't send 5,000 cavalry to destroy 5,000 infantry. Even if they wanted to annihilate them all, it would not exceed four thousand at most. Of course, even if it is 4,000 people, I don't know if these soldiers who are on the battlefield for the first time will be able to hold on. Cai Rong also has a headache, but since she has come, she has to fight whatever she says. The only good thing is that their team was designed for cavalry from the very beginning. And this time I also brought a lot of explosives, so a few people were quite sure.
"Tomorrow we'll move this way." Cai Rong pointed to a hilly area on the map, and Shen Huili and the others naturally would not object. "In hilly terrain, the horses don't run at maximum speed, so it's good for us. The political commissars in the army should also do a good job, and tonight they should count the words that everyone left for their families, and write them down on paper and notes. And leave half of everyone's ID cards and wait for the battle to be confirmed. "Of course, Cai Rong and the others also built the army in a modern way.
It was true that many people did not sleep well all night, and at about four o'clock in the morning, the whole procession began to move towards the hilly area. "General Shen, General Cai, the enemy is already less than ten miles, about three thousand people." Zhao Yun immediately reported to the two of them, but it was obvious that Zhao Yun was also working hard today, after all, he was also very worried about Shen Huili's infantry now.
"General Zhao has worked hard, and when he fights for a while, General Zhao can take the rest of the cavalry to wander not far away. If we defeat the enemy, General Zhao will go and cover the killing, okay? Shen Huili looked at Zhao Yun's blood and fragmented body tissues, and estimated that he was also too tired, so naturally let Zhao Yun rest first, Zhao Yun hugged his fists and took people down.
The infantry quickly formed a phalanx, and in any case, the discipline of this army is definitely the first in the Three Kingdoms. surrounded Shen Huili and Cai Rong, who was in command, in the middle of the phalanx. And the remaining generals all led their teams around the phalanx, and Li Yun and Pei Yuanshao led the most elite troops to stand in the direction where the enemy came.
"Settle the stumbling spikes!" After Cai Rong shouted a sentence in the middle, in addition to the direction of the front, the remaining three parties began to place iron nails in the distance. There are several pieces of this thing, and it is completely covered within about 500 meters. If the enemy wants to charge hard, hundreds of horses will not be able to fill it without falling.
Just when they were about to prepare, Badon came to a short distance with more than 2,500 people. The remaining hundreds of people roamed around the vicinity, to surround or intercept when the Han army collapsed. "Hmph, it's pretty good. Left Striker! Go and try their strength! Badun asked one of his men on the left to come with more than 500 people to try.
