Chapter 341: Warriors of the Nation
I left with the soldiers outside, and Ji Shaojun also came out of the tent and left here with me.
Yin Si was cold, and the soldiers of the Han Court prepared winter clothes, but they never used them, and now Yang Xiong ordered that they all put on winter clothes, and they really looked a little hungry.
The rest was left to Yangxiong, and we went to leave thousands of zhang, found a place where the peaks on both sides of the mountain stood, and began to merge with Yangxiong's scattered army before, and waited outside for Yangxiong to lure the Huangquan garrison over.
While waiting here, the Han Court spies came to report on the other battles in the Yang Realm, most of which were from the two sides of Zhengyi and Yin, and I listened carefully.
According to this spy, Yin Si is now divided into two ways, one to Luoyang, the other to the south, the south now has Shen Tu Yu Lei and Liu Cheng three of them, all three of them are talented people, and Zhao Wenhe is inseparable, although Zhao Wenhe is talented, but after all, he is only a scholar, and some situations are difficult to judge, so Yin Si did not get any benefits in the south at all.
Yin Si sent 70,000 ghost soldiers to the past, losing 40,000, and there were 10,000 Taoist disciples over there, plus more than 30,000 believers, and 10,000 were lost, this record is proud enough.
On the other hand, Yin Si broke five levels in a row and approached Luoyang, and the Han court army had no experience of fighting with ghost soldiers, and was almost defeated all the way. Now there are only three levels left to reach Luoyang, and the Han Court is also summoning cultivators to deal with the ghost soldiers, but most of the cultivators were taken away in advance by Yin Si and Zhengyi Alliance Weidao, and they had little effect.
All of this was expected, but there was one piece of news that surprised me.
The spy said to the deputy general, "There are two forces in the Central Plains, one of which belongs to the Zhengyi Alliance, and the leader is Wang Fangping, who has suffered losses in the Central Plains before, he specializes in collecting Yin Souls, and has run all over the battlefields of the Central Plains, and all the weapons and Yin Souls on the battlefield have been taken away by him, and now there are nearly 20,000 or so people gathered. ”
The adjutant knew that I was a member of the Zhengyi side, so he didn't talk about this deeply, and asked, "Which side does the second force belong to?" ”
The spy said, "I don't know, this force doesn't seem to belong to any of the Zhengyi, Yinsi, and Dahan, they call themselves Taiping Dao, Daozu is a person named Zhang Jiao, Zhang Jiao is a person with great ability, he has been wandering around the Central Plains before, absorbing a large number of believers, these believers are now following him, the number has been about 10,000 people, and the number is still growing rapidly, but it is not clear for the time being that Zhang Jiao's intention to gather believers." ”
After hearing this, the deputy general sighed, "In the troubled times, people with great ambitions want to achieve a hegemony, Zhang Daoling is like this, the Northern Emperor is like this, and this Zhang Jiao is the same, these three people, one is dedicated to Taoist priests, one is dedicated to ghost soldiers, and the other is dedicated to believers, and I don't know who will have the last laugh." ”
I listened silently on the side, Zhang Jiao really appeared, a figure who will push the Han Dynasty into the Three Kingdoms era in the future, one of the future generals of the Nine Shadows, it's time to go to him, and I have to win him over before he develops and grows.
According to historical records, Zhang Jiao's Taiping Dao will grow to about 400,000 people in the future, and now Yin Si may not have such a scale of troops, once he grows his own power, he will definitely not surrender to us, and if you want to move him, you have to move him as soon as possible.
I didn't speak from beginning to end, but the deputy general took the initiative to ask me, "Does Mr. Sun have any thoughts on this Zhang Jiao?" ”
I glanced at Ji Shaojun next to me, patted her on the shoulder and said, "You should know who this Zhang Jiao is." ”
Ji Shaojun sighed, "I and Yangxiong's junior brother, but we have never met. ”
When the adjutant general heard that it was Yang Xiong's junior brother, he was immediately overjoyed, "Since he is General Yang's junior brother, why don't you use this relationship to pull him into the Han Court?" ”
"It's your business, it's none of mine." Ji Shaojun said lightly.
She really didn't care about the affairs of the human race, she only cared about Yangxiong and Longfuzhou, and the deputy general was stunned and turned to the person next to him, "Go and tell General Yang the news immediately, and after the Huangquan War, you must take the opportunity to win over this Zhang Jiao." ”
The person next to you should be leaving.
I was faintly worried, I couldn't let Han Ting take the lead, if I wanted to win over Zhang Jiao, Yang Xiong and Ji Shaojun were the most suitable candidates to lobby, so I had to pull the two of them into my camp first.
And if you want to win over Yangxiong, you have to wait until after the Battle of Huangquan is the best time, so you can only wait quietly for now.
……
In the following time, we have been waiting on this mountain, from time to time someone came to report the situation outside Huangquan City, in order to facilitate the preparation of the inside and outside, until the evening of the third day, the sky was extremely dark, and we saw from a distance that there were torches moving towards this side outside Huangquan City.
Seeing that it was Yang Xiong who took the five thousand bait soldiers he left behind, the formation was extremely chaotic, the military flags were crooked, and the soldiers were all wrapped in winter clothes, looking extremely embarrassed, and they abandoned the corpses killed in the previous battle all the way, making the people in Huangquan City think that Han Ting was unable to stop the plague and fled, and the corpses discarded all the way were the people who died of the plague in Han Ting.
Seeing this, the adjutant general hurriedly asked the standard-bearer to give an order, asking the people on both sides to do a good job of camouflage, and waiting for the people in Huangquan to chase them out.
Sure enough, Yangxiong and they retreated less than a thousand zhang, Huangquan City was wide open, and the Huangquan guard led the ghost soldiers to chase out, Yangxiong They deliberately slowed down, and the ghost soldiers pursued quickly.
Just in the middle of these two mountains, the Huangquan guard caught up with Yang Xiong, the two generals rode against each other, the guard was scared by me before, and now he has recovered his state, he is full of energy, looking at the remnants behind Yang Xiong and sneering, "I have been surrounded for so many days, why don't you continue to surround me?" What do you think about using a living person to attack the Yin Division? ”
Yang Xiong looked left and right, "What about your military advisor Liu Chen?" Why didn't he chase him out with you? ”
Speaking of Liu Chen, the guard was full of anger, "This person delayed the fighter plane and prevented me from coming out to pursue, I have already arrested him, and I will go back and kill him when I take your head." Saying that, he said to Yang Xiong again, "In the past, you Han Xin had Han Xin, who was unparalleled in the country, and Huo Quai, who was a wolf, but now the Han Court is vulnerable, you are a good man, you can attack my Huangquan several times in such a harsh environment, and even almost break through Huangquan." However, the sky is going to kill your Han Court, and send down the plague to help me Yin, since your defeat has been decided, you can't do without Yinsi, it is better to surrender, with your talent, Beidi will definitely reuse you. ”
The lieutenant general of the hill had already begun to give the order to move, forming an encirclement, staining his bow and arrows with blood, and rounding the rear to block their retreat.
"Don't you think we're in the wrong numbers? Aren't you afraid that we have an ambush? Yang Xiong asked.
The guard laughed and said, "Just chasing along the way, you have killed more than 2,000 people, you know the ferocity of this plague, you don't have to confuse me anymore, according to this rate of death, I am afraid that 10,000 people have died a few days ago, but I am afraid that we will find out, so I buried it quietly, I have seen the newly excavated and soil in the place where you are stationed." ”
He used several of the suggestions I gave to Yangxiong, and he used a few more of them, and the Han court army gradually retreated, so he dug up the soil to create the illusion of burying people, and it is no wonder that the defender has not reacted yet.
Yang Xiong shook his head and sighed, "You should listen to Liu Chen." After saying that, he raised his hand and shouted, "Where are the Han soldiers!" ”
Brush lalala, all the people who hid the two mountains came out, Wu Yang rushed down, quickly cut off their retreat, the ghost soldiers sent more than 10,000 people to pursue, but there were more than 20,000 people here in the Han Dynasty, and now Yangxiong is in a favorable position, Huangquan is defeated.
Seeing this, the guard was shocked, and the ghost soldiers behind him were also panicked, and the guard shouted, "Impossible, such a ferocious plague, how can you still have so many people." ”
"The corpses you see are those who died in battle a few days ago, not from the plague." Yang Xiong said.
The guard was full of disbelief, and said, "Your people are clearly sick and have no combat power, and they are obviously seriously ill. ”
"It's not cold now, and it's naturally uncomfortable to cover your winter clothes." Yang Xiong replied again, and then ordered, "Kill them all, and leave no armor behind!" ”
The guard hurriedly shouted, "Retreat! ”
Just about to turn around, the arrow rain fell instantly, the ghost soldiers didn't have time to resist, and fell in pieces, after the arrow rain, Yang Xiong led the sword and horse rushed into the ghost soldiers, and the guard was entangled, and the Han court army also smeared blood on the knife and rushed into the formation.
Ji Shaojun and I stood on the mountain and watched silently, there were some people in the rear who imprisoned the ghost soldiers who had surrendered at the Ghost Gate Pass, after this battle was over, this group of surrendered ghost soldiers was afraid that they would not live long, Han Ting did not need ghost soldiers, there was no need for them to exist.
I'm planning to find Yangxiong to bring these ghost soldiers over, if they are tamed well, they will also be of some use in the future.
