Chapter 798: Containment (Thanks to Alliance Leader Hualing Road 2009)

Xuchang is not too close to Yecheng, but it is not too far either.

All kinds of news about the Battle of Yecheng kept coming, and Zhong Hui was a little worried, "The Sima family is really not as good as the generation, when Sima Yi fought in all directions, he used soldiers like a god, but Sima Yan was so poor......"

Jiang Bin said: "Sima Yan is good at power, this defeat is inevitable, this year is colder than in previous years, Jiangdong soldiers are not tolerant of bitter cold, there are many frostbite, and there are many complaints in the army." ”

Wu Jun was accustomed to a warm life in the water towns south of the Yangtze River and did not adapt to the climate of the northern country.

Now it's just Xuchang, if you cross the Yellow River and go deep into Hebei, won't you immediately mutiny?

But this is human nature, just as in spring and summer, when the northern army penetrates deep into the south, there are many plague outbreaks.

This was the case with the Battle of Chibi back then.

Cao Cao's elite infected people were numerous, and he could only activate the Jingzhou Naval Army, which was not attached to the people's hearts.

Rao is Zhong Hui is extremely intelligent, and he is helpless in the face of this situation.

This year is indeed much colder than in previous years, and it can't all be blamed on Wu Jun.

This is the time of day.

"From the perspective of his subordinates, it is difficult for Qin Jin to distinguish the winner for a while, so it is better to withdraw the army back to Jiangxia first, avoid the cold winter, replenish grain and grass, and come back in spring." Shen Ying suggested.

This is a very reasonable suggestion.

The weather was cold, Yingshui froze, Wu Jun's navy could not move, and there were problems with the transportation of grain and grass in Jiangdong again.

And the cavalry of 8,000 people, with the cooperation of tens of thousands of thieves, constantly attacked the rear.

Wu Jun was struggling to cope.

In many cases, 8,000 cavalry can influence a big battle.

The river froze, and the cavalry came and went freely.

Wu Jun was forced to hide in the city.

During this time, it was all supported by the Yingchuan clan.

But the 200,000 army sat on the empty mountain, and the Yingchuan clan couldn't bear it.

Zhong Hui was quite moved, "Shi Ye, Shi Ye, a certain army temporarily avoided Jiangxia, and the second and third brothers left 20,000 elites to guard Xuchang. ”

"Command!"

This battle bell will gain a lot, and it will take most of Yuzhou, which is enough to go back to see Jiangdong's fathers.

The army was just ready, and the scouts rode their horses into the city, "Qin, Qin people are here!" ”

"The Qin people are here!"

A cry spread in Xuchang City, and the people suddenly panicked.

Zhong Hui was startled, and led the generals to climb the West City Tower, only to see smoke and dust billowing in the distance, and the black armor in the cold wind was boundless.

The sturdy horses and burly cavalrymen spewed white mist from their mouths and noses.

The white snow, black armor, cold wind, and war horses are even more murderous.

In such a cold weather, the Wu army in the city was shivering from the cold, but the Qin army under the city was calm.

Not only was it not affected by the severe cold, but it was more motivated.

As soon as he saw this momentum, Wu Jun was the first to coax.

Zhong Hui's face sank, it was too timely.

There must be a Qin army in the city!

"What a Du Yuankai!" Zhong will quickly find out who the opponent is.

"Qin Wu is an ally, what do you want when you wait for the soldiers to come to the city?" The guards shouted loudly.

After a short time, the city replied: "I heard that Prime Minister Zhong is not patient with the cold in the north, so he has come to help defend the city!" ”

"Phew, straight thief!" Jiang Shu scolded.

Zhonghui was also angry.

What do you mean by "assisting in the defense of the city"? It's just taking advantage of people's danger!

"Don't worry about it, Xuchang has its own garrison, please go back."

"There are a lot of people in Yuzhou, Xuchang is a big place in the world, how can the prime minister abandon it? If you are afraid of the cold, you can come to our army to keep warm. After speaking, the Qin army began to set up camp.

General Wu Jun scolded.

But swearing obviously can't get out of the predicament in front of them.

Zhong Hui suddenly felt that Du Pre's intention was not Xuchang, but himself!

It will take at least two months before the weather is warm, but can Wu Jun hold out for two months?

Not to mention that it's not the coldest time yet.

"The Qin army has an unstable foothold, and his subordinates are willing to lead an army to rush into battle!" Jiang Shu arched his hand.

Shen Ying said: "The last general is also willing to go!" ”

Whether it can be played or not, the bell will know best.

Don't look at the Qin army, there are only twenty or thirty thousand people, but most of them are cavalry!

In this kind of weather, Wu Jun's foot soldiers went out to find death?

The Qin army has always been famous for field battles, and it is still Du Pre, the first general of the Qin State......

If it was someone else, Zhong Hui might not have such a lot of pressure, but Du Yu was different.

If Zhong Hui is not mistaken, this person has never been defeated since he came out of the mountain!

Of course, if you get your own 50,000 elites, regardless of casualties, you may be able to drive away the Qin army.

But this is Zhonghui's last hole card, if there is too much damage here, how to go back to deter Jiangdong Haoqiang?

"Shut up and defend yourself! Those who dare to fight, slash! ”

In Xuchang City, Wu Jun sighed, feeling that it was getting colder this day, and huddled together to keep warm.

Zhong Hui inspected the camps, and the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became, the morale of the Wu army was low, and the fear of the cold greatly exceeded his expectations.

In this situation, not to mention the enemy attacking the city, they can't bear it themselves.

"Why, why, He Qin people are not afraid of cold, cold?" Wu Jun's teeth trembled and whispered in the camp.

"Qin and the people are all barbarians in the border lands, they are not afraid of the cold when they are born and born, I heard that the colder they are, the more powerful they are, does Feng Sa know the war? Sima Zhao's army of more than 200,000 was dragged down in the snow......"

"That's amazing...... Wouldn't the prime minister also ......"

The words reached Zhong Hui's ears, making him even more irritable, "Demolish the wooden hall in the city, cut down all the trees in the city, slaughter the war horses and livestock in the army, provide heating for the soldiers, and supply the food in limited quantities every day." ”

Since you can't retreat or fight, you can only consume it!

Under the city.

Du Yu was also so cold that his teeth trembled, the Qin army was actually not as afraid of the cold as Wu Jun looked, many war horses were frozen to death, and the soldiers were also frostbitten a lot.

The ones who are really not afraid of the cold are the Qiang people.

In order to deter the Wu army in Xuchang, he put on a posture that was not afraid of the cold.

The name of the person and the shadow of the tree, the effect is unexpectedly good, and the bell will really hit the plan.

Du Yu's thin body was a little unbearable, and he held the hand stove every day and hid in the carriage until now.

However, for the sake of Zhong Hui, I still came decisively.

War is like that, and the time is fleeting.

Blocking the bell in Xuchang, the advantage on the chessboard is inclined to Daqin.

Whether to attack or not to attack Xuchang is secondary.

"More firewood." Du pre-sneezed a loud sneeze.

The dry firewood was filled in, the flame was vigorous, and Du Yu felt much better.

"Why didn't the Governor raid the Governor while the bell was leaving the city?" Zhou Zhi is young and vigorous and not afraid of the cold.

"200,000 troops, our army is attacking, the outcome is unpredictable, Zhong Hui is dead, Jiangdong authority falls into the hands of the Lu family, there is Lu Kai inside, there is Lu Kang outside, Jiangdong is solid, Jiangdong is difficult to determine! Just wrap yourself around the bell. ”

"So, the Governor will let him live?"

"It's not to put, but our army didn't leave his strength, after a long time, Zhong Hui will get along with the way to deal with it, this time the Wu army went north to Xuchang, it was a mistake, Zhong Hui was exhausted, and he was unable to attack Huaisi, Jiangdong missed the opportunity! The head of Zhong Hui is seeking people, not the country. ”

Zhong Hui has never been a steady man.

Zhou Zhi laughed, "Zhong Hui has always been conceited and resourceful to dominate the world, but he didn't expect to be taken advantage of by the governor today, so it can be seen that he is nothing more than that!" ”

Du pre-said: "Don't take it lightly, Zhong Hui has been famous for more than 20 years, and it has its own merits." ”

"Yui!"
