Chapter 164: Clever Seizure
Hanoi is located in the east of the north bank of the Yellow River, opposite to the outside of the river and the east of the river, and is called the Three Rivers, and the Three Rivers knights under the command of Huangfu Song in the early years came from here.
Hanoi and Hewai are bounded by the Yellow River, and Hanoi and Hedong are bounded by the ether, so this advance can only be carried out by troops. The so-called scheming one, the end of the axle. For those who pass the pass, the passage is only a pass (car) risk.
The north mountain of Yiguan is steep, the south mountain is gentle, the north is high and the south is low, the east is adjacent to the hills and valleys, the west is connected to the mountains, the situation is precipitous, it has always been the place where the soldiers must fight, the Taihang Eight Mountains, this is the first Mountain, it can be seen.
The reason why Zhang Yang didn't panic at all after receiving the order was that thousands of people and horses were stationed in Yiguan, and Bingzhou was good at riding and was not good at attacking cities.
"General, this emperor has always been tricky, even the famous general Xu Rong was deceived by him to open the city gate and lose the water, I still need to be careful!"
The person who spoke was Zhang Yang's chief strategist Dong Zhao, this person was Gongren, who was the Jiyin Dingtao clan, and he first joined Yuan Shaobai to join the army, but unfortunately Yuan Shao repeatedly believed in slander, and his colleagues were intolerable, so he defected to Zhang Yang and turned to Hanoi to plan.
"Don't worry, Yang Chou has set up a military order, just stick to it, never go out of the city, and there is nothing he can do about it."
Dong Zhao was not at ease, judging from the previous information, Huangfu Biao was definitely a master of surprise attacks, often unprepared, and blindly sticking to the fear could not ensure that the pass was foolproof.
"There are a lot of famous families in Hanoi, the general might as well make more friends, if you get their help, talents, money, food, soldiers and horses can be said to be everything, why fear the emperor to narrow the son of heaven to order the princes?"
"Gongren doesn't know, these people are more difficult to serve than the emperor, I won't go, anyway, I have soldiers and horses in my hands, they just need to be afraid of me!"
Dong Zhao was also helpless when he heard this, knowing that it was useless to say more, so he had to give up.
Soon, Huang Zhong arrived at the Yiguan Pass, one man and one horse, but he put great pressure on the defenders of the pass, because Fang just shot down the banner of Yang Chou at the head of the city with one arrow.
When the news of Yang's scandal came, Huang Zhong was gone, and there was only a big yellow flag planted in the middle of the road, which was the flag that Huang Zhong planted on the ground. The angry Yang Chou ordered the city to release arrows, which was bound to regain the lost face, but unfortunately, under the random arrows, none of the arrows hit the flag, and everyone was shocked and silent.
It's not that the sergeant's archery skills are inaccurate, but that their range is not enough, Huang Zhong makes a three-stone hard bow, and it is not easy for the soldiers in the army to open an extra stone bow, how can they shoot the banner outside the city, and they can't even touch the edge.
"General! I am willing to ride out of the city alone to cut the flag and offer it! ”
It was Yang Chou's subordinates who refused to accept this humiliation and stepped forward to ask for his life, but Yang Chou refused, he remembered the military order he had made in Zhang Yang before leaving, if it was not a last resort, he would never open the door, this was Huang Zhong's radical method, and he should not act rashly.
Everyone had no choice, looking at the yellow flag at the head of the city, it became more and more obstructive, and after a long time, they felt that it was not an enemy flag, but a stinger piercing their hearts, which was unbearable, but could not be removed.
Huang Zhong didn't expect that his strategy would not work, and the enemy would not be fooled, so he used his divine shot to suppress the city, but the arrow was blocked by the big shield, and he attacked several times, with little effect, and could only wait for the fighter under the city.
"Report! Someone has come to treat the army! ”
Yang Chou was completely sleepy, and he looked at it, but the Hanoi clan spontaneously came to reward the defenders, several carts of pork and whole sheep, so that the defenders who had not seen meat for half a month were excited, and the wine that was most lacking in this year was all mud-sealed jars, and a whole carriage, although it was not opened, it smelled the fragrance of wine, and it aroused everyone's greed at once.
"Open the door!"
Yang Chou saw that everyone followed him without oil and water, and if he even pushed the supplies of the labor army, it would cause public anger. Before the pass, there is still the possibility of Huang Zhong defrauding the city, but after the pass is Hanoi, how to change, after a little thought, the door was opened.
This night, after drawing lots to select candidates for duty, the others ate meat and drank freely, even Yang Chouming shirked his heavy responsibilities on his face and did not drink or drink, in the end, he couldn't persuade everyone, drank a lot, and went to the house early to rest.
Just after noon in the middle of the night, three or five men dressed as grooms came to the city with a basket of meat buns, and bluntly said that the duty of the defenders was not to drink alcohol, and it was okay to eat meat buns and drink some hot soup to warm up their bodies, and everyone was grateful.
A bite of the big meat bun that can bite into the filling, everyone who eats it is full of oil, and there is a hot pork soup with fennel star anise, and the whole body is warm after drinking. However, after the defenders scrambled to drink the broth, they staggered because of the sweat medicine in the soup.
The whole process of eating for the labor army is in charge of the soldiers in the army, and there is no chance at all, but fortunately, the empty space of the barrel of broth is carried up to the city, and there is a chance to get drugged, which is really dangerous and dangerous.
In fact, Yang Chou is really careless, the famous family in Hanoi doesn't even give Zhang Yang face, will it be his account? It's just that I'm arrogant and self-righteous on weekdays.
