Chapter 725: Zhang He's Mind Looks Changed the Sky

As Zhang Wei expected, after Zhang He led the army to leave Xinye City for more than ten miles, rain slowly fell in the sky.

And Zhang Wei learned from Zhou Tai's mouth that according to his understanding of the weather in Nanyang County, the rain will only get heavier and heavier in the future, and it will not stop.

After hearing Zhou Tai's analysis, Zhang Wei's face showed a solemn look.

I'm really afraid of something.

In order to conceal his whereabouts, Zhang He did not lead the army to walk the official road.

And even if it is an official road in the world, it cannot be compared with the asphalt road in later generations.

As the rain gradually fell, the mountain road under the feet of tens of thousands of Han troops became muddy.

This greatly affected the march progress of the Han army.

Although the Wu army had also marched in heavy rain before, their situation was different from that of the Han army.

No matter how heavy the rain is, a large part of the journey from Xiakou to Yongan is a waterway.

The Wu army had a large number of technologically advanced warships.

Those warships ensured the marching speed of the Wu army to the greatest extent.

But the Han army did not have this advantage.

They had to rely on their own feet to climb the mountains step by step, walking in the muddy mountain roads.

How difficult the muddy road is to walk, people who want to grow up in the countryside in the future should have an experience.

The most important thing is that since it was for a surprise attack, tens of thousands of Han troops set off with weapons with them.

In peacetime, with the physical fitness of the Han army, it is not impossible to surprise nearly a hundred miles with equipment.

But the bad weather environment has made something that is usually easy for the Han army difficult at the moment.

After continuing to walk for more than ten miles, many Han soldiers felt numbness in their calves and sore hands.

This is not only the case for ordinary soldiers, but also for generals with slightly inferior physical fitness.

Even due to carelessness, some Han soldiers accidentally slipped and fell into the mountain stream below.

The Han soldiers who fell let out a roar of surprise before losing their lives.

And those roars, with the help of the depths of the mountain streams, have been floating in the ears of tens of thousands of heavenly commanders for a long time.

After enduring it for a long time, Zhang Wei finally couldn't help it.

Zhang Wei strode forward and came to Zhang He's front and asked:

"General, let the sons rest for a while!"

"At least we can wait for the rain to subside before our army continues to set off."

Zhang Wei was afraid that if he continued to march like this, the non-combat attrition of tens of thousands of Tiance troops would become more and more serious.

This was a very heavy blow to the combat effectiveness and morale of the Tiance Army.

But Zhang He's resoluteness still exceeded Zhang Wei's expectations.

"There is no turning back from the bow.

If I have set out with my army, I will slay down the city and return."

The roar caused by the Han army falling into the mountain stream, Zhang He did not hear it.

But Zhang He knew that this was an inevitable and necessary sacrifice.

After leaving Xinye City, he sent a lot of scouts to follow the march of the army, observing the state of the Wei army sentry in front.

When each scout returned, what they reported to Zhang He was that the Wei army's sentry posts were in a state of carelessness.

What does this prove?

It proves that Mi Yang's judgment is correct!

If this is the right judgment, why should we give up a great opportunity because of some necessary sacrifice?

Zhang He glanced at his feet that had been soaked in mud, and his eyes did not waver in the slightest.

Then Zhang He lifted his foot hard, and then landed heavily on the dirt road, splashing a few splashes.

"Follow me and keep going."

Zhang He's attitude made Zhang Wei close his eyes helplessly.

Seeing that Zhang He did not change his mind, what Zhang Wei could do next was to keep walking around the team with several generals and using words to boost morale.

Listening to the footsteps that gradually got faster under Zhang Wei's encouragement, Zhang He's face showed a smile when he was not noticed

Although Zhang Wei bluntly admonished him several times, Zhang Hexin not only did not hate Zhang Wei, but liked him quite a lot.

This is not because of Zhang Wei's identity as Mi Yang's confidant, but because every sentence of Zhang Wei is based on public heart.

Such qualities are rare in Cao Wei.

And for those with such qualities, the future will be bright.

Since Zhang He came to Dahan, he found that Wei Chen, who had surrendered before, was doing something in unison.

That is to find the potential stocks in the heart of the Han Dynasty and the opposition, befriend them, and hand over your own skills to them.

This is Wei Chen, who has surrendered, thinking about the future of the family.

Among those Wei Chen, the most successful was Yu Ban.

After the battle of public security, Yu Ban was almost extinct in front of the world, but in the capital of the Han Dynasty, he has always been very active.

Anyone who visits must mention him and Mi Yang in the glorious years of public security. talked a lot, and Mi Yang never expressed dissatisfaction with this matter, and gradually every Hanchen almost knew that Yu Ban had a good relationship with Mi Yang.

Fundamentally, this has improved Yu Ban's status in the Han Dynasty.

When Liu Bei died, Yu Ban was a general, and the order in which he cried for Liu Bei was still above Zhao Yun and others.

With such a good example in front of him, it is impossible for Zhang He not to follow suit.

And under many observations, he has such expectations for Zhang Wei.

Since the expedition, every word he has said to Zhang Wei is actually teaching.

Thinking of this, Zhang He regained his strength and climbed towards the top of the mountain.

Because he was very familiar with the terrain of Jingbei, today's march route was personally finalized by Zhang He.

This marching route can avoid most of the Wei army posts, and it can also greatly shorten the distance, but it is quite rugged and difficult.

But Zhang He believed that the Tiance Army behind him would not let him down.

When he was in Yizhou, didn't Zhang Fei lead the army over the mountains and mountains, and suddenly attacked him and beat him up?

The Han army could do it in the past, and there is no reason why it can't now.

I don't know how long I continued walking, but when the sky gradually darkened, tens of thousands of Han troops finally walked out of the dense forest full of dangers.

Walking out of the dense forest, Zhang He asked people to count the number of people.

After counting, Zhang He found that the Han army was missing hundreds of people.

Almost all of these hundreds of people died on the road for various reasons.

The bad weather of the world is sometimes more ferocious than the beast.

In addition to the hundreds of people killed, Zhang He also learned that many people in the army were injured.

Most of these people were attacked by poisonous insects and beasts in the mountains and forests.

After learning about the current situation of the Han army, Zhang He's heart was not worried but happy.

Today's march can be described as very difficult.

Zhang Hexin was originally prepared for the downsizing, which would be quite serious.

But unexpectedly, the attrition situation was much better than he expected.

Zhang He couldn't help but secretly praise the elite of the Tiance Army in his heart.

Then Zhang He made battle arrangements.

Zhang Hexian ordered Zhou Tai to be the vanguard, and led an army of 3,000 to capture a village below as quickly as possible.

Zhang He, who was familiar with the Wei army sentry, knew that the Wei army was stationed in that village, which was a hub for communication between Wancheng and Bowang.

And after Zhou Tai led the army to leave, Zhang He asked the remaining troops to rest and recuperate.

The remaining troops did not rest for long, and Zhang He learned the news that Zhou Tai had captured the village.

After learning the news, Zhang He quickly arranged other tasks.

"Zhou Tai led the troops to rest in the village, and when the rain stopped a little, he sent troops to seize the various sentry posts and key roads between Wancheng and Bowang from behind."

After arranging the task of Zhou Tai, Zhang He looked at Liu Yin.

"You led more than a thousand men to stay here to take care of the wounded, and always be vigilant about the rear of our army.

If you find anything abnormal in the back road, you must report it in time."

After arranging this weight, Zhang He turned his head to look at the thoughtful Zhang Wei and said to him:

"Then take the remaining five thousand soldiers and go with me to Bowang."

After Zhang Wei heard Zhang He's words, he hurriedly said that he received the order.

Before long, it was completely dark.

Taking advantage of the dark sky, Zhang Hehe led the army towards Bowang overnight.

Even when the sky darkened, many Han soldiers could not see the surrounding environment clearly.

However, judging from the moist touch of the body and the loud sound of rain in the ears, the rain has not decreased, but has become heavier and heavier.

In addition, day and night are two different environments.

Although the Tiance Army strictly followed the food standard of "one meat in seven days" set by Mi Yang, this could only slowly improve the night blindness of the Tiance Army, which was not enough for the Tiance Army to be able to see at night as much as day.

For the superstitious people in the world, after the night darkens, some deep fears in their hearts will be unconsciously triggered.

This is no exception even for even the most elite soldiers.

In particular, the Tiance Army had never entered Jingbei, and for them, the environment they were in now was completely unfamiliar, and it was pitch black.

An unknown sense of terror is slowly invading the hearts of every Tiance Army.

And this sense of horror, after an incident, has a tendency to be detonated.

As the rain intensified, strong winds blew on the roads.

The swift wind blew even the general's flag.

When marching in the dark night, the military flag is the guiding light of the whole army, and it is also their spiritual sustenance.

So when the military flag was blown up, many celestial strategies couldn't help but let out exclamations.

When he heard the exclamation of the Tiance Army, Zhang He's first reaction was to turn around and appease the army.

But before he could act, Zhang Wei took the lead like a daylight, running in front and back of the team and shouting:

"I am Zhang Wei, today I am acting on the orders of the Great Sima, don't worry!" Zhang Wei's words are quite simple, but the information revealed is not simple.

As we all know, Zhang Wei is the favorite general of the great Sima Miyang.

In addition, everyone also knows how high Mi Yang's prestige is in the Tiance Army.

When Zhang Wei's shouts sounded in the ranks of the Han army, the exclamations that soon came and went slowly disappeared.

Thousands of days of the army believed that Zhang Wei would not fake Mi Yang's orders.

And they believe that Mi Yang will not harm them.

After realizing this, even if it was dark and the rain was urgent, the heart of the thousands of days of the army gradually settled down.

After the heart was settled, the speed of the thousands of Han troops suddenly increased a lot.

By the time of the third watch, the Thousands of Heavenly Strategies army had already approached Bowang City.

Walking here, Zhang He found a pond near him where poultry were raised.

After perceiving this, Zhang He immediately ordered the Tiance Army to pick up the stones on the ground and throw them into the pond.

Many poultry were sleeping in the pond when they were suddenly hit by rocks.

Their bodies ached, and soon they began to scream one after another.

This loud chirp almost perfectly drowned out the sound of thousands of days of marching.

By the time of the fourth watch, thousands of Tiance troops had already arrived under the leadership of Zhang He.

And because the thousands of days of the army came too secretly and suddenly, at this time, the Wei army in the city was sleeping soundly, and no one noticed the abnormality.

Seeing this, Zhang Closed did not delay.

Zhang He, who once led the army to garrison Jingbei, was no stranger to the city defense of Bowang.

He knew that although Bowang's city defense was not bad, it had a fatal flaw.

Zhang He led the Tiance army around to a place on the north wall of the city, and then ordered someone to find the strong men in the army, and began to smash it somewhere in the city wall.

After seeing Zhang He's behavior, Zhang Wei's face was inevitably exposed

There was a puzzled look.

He admitted that the people he was looking for were all well-known strong men in the army.

But now they are smashing the city wall, how can they smash it?

But before Zhang Wei could be puzzled for long, with the help of the firelight, the next moment his face showed an unbelievable expression.

I saw that before several strong men smashed it, holes slowly appeared in the wall they smashed.

After perceiving Zhang Wei's surprise, Zhang He explained with a smile:

"In the early years of Jian'an, the first emperor launched a northern expedition with the support of Liu Biao.

The first emperor of the Northern Expedition once occupied Bowang and approached Xuchang.

Later, Cao Cao led a heavy army to attack Bowang and forced the first emperor to retreat.

Although that Bowang allowed the Wei army to successfully take Bowang, it also caused damage to the northern wall of Bowang that was difficult to rest.

In addition, in the past, Cao Wei's defense line was in Fancheng, and he did not expect that Bowang would one day face the enemy, so he never vigorously repaired Bowang's city wall.

In the past, when I was in Cao Wei, I suggested that we should be wary of this.

But today it is clear that my proposal has never been adopted."

Zhang He slowly revealed the secret he knew.

And when Zhang He's voice fell, Zhang He looked at Zhang Wei and said:

"Now that the city wall has been opened, I wonder if Boqi wants to enter?"

Between the words, Zhang He actually wanted to give Zhang Wei the credit for being the first to be in vain.

It's just that although the first to go first means the first achievement, it also has to bear a lot of risk.

But it is clear that Zhang Wei is not afraid.

So after Zhang Wei excitedly bowed to Zhang Yiyi, he led hundreds of warriors from the smashed hole into the city.

After Zhang Wei came to the city, he immediately led hundreds of warriors to run towards the city wall.

Due to the sound of poultry and the sound of rain, the Wei troops on the city walls did not hear anything unusual, which caused them to remain asleep.

In order to ensure that the capture of Bowang was foolproof, Zhang Wei did not show mercy to these sleeping enemy subordinates.

Under Zhang Wei's order, those sleeping Wei troops defending the city were soon ended in their sleep.

And before they died, they didn't even have time to give a warning.

After clearing the Wei army on the city wall, Zhang Wei hurriedly came to the city and opened the city gate.

With the city gate completely opened, the thousands of heavenly troops who had already been unable to hold back rushed straight into Bowang City like tigers and wolves.

Coincidentally, when the thousands of heavenly troops rushed in, it was when the first light of the morning appeared.

"Five watches.

August 30th of the sixth year of the Yellow Dynasty!"

The sound of the husband announcing the time resounded throughout the city.

Soon, however, several of the guards near the northern wall had frightened faces on their faces.

Zhang Wei came to the husband with a sharp knife in his hand, picked up the wooden hammer of the husband, struck it heavily on the gong and said:

"Definitely!

It should be the thirtieth day of August in the sixth year of Zhang Wu!"
