Chapter 46: Zhao Shi is angry
The South Vietnamese army camp under Bushan City.
"Yu Shizi, the last general has already organized two attacks, both of which have been repulsed by the defenders of Bushan. My besiegers are exhausted, can you rest and recuperate and wait for tomorrow to attack the city? A South Vietnamese army general knelt in front of Zhao Shi, the son of South Vietnam, and asked for his life.
"Okay, you go and remove the soldiers who are besieging the city, and you can plan for the siege tomorrow."
After thinking about it, Zhao Shi reluctantly agreed to the request of the besieging general.
When the Nanyue royal palace was discussing the troops that day, when Zhao Shi heard that the Qin army guarding the three counties of Guilin County was only 20,000 people, he was excited for a while, and after some bitter pleading, Zhao Tuo agreed to let him lead the troops to attack Bushan County.
Because Zhao Tuo knew that the defenders of Guilin County only had 3,000 Yinglong troops and more than 16,000 South Vietnamese soldiers, he agreed to Zhao Shi's request, let Zhao Shi serve as the commander of the army attacking Bushan County, and handed over the 70,000 horses in the most elite South Vietnamese army to Zhao Shi.
After all, Zhao Shi is Zhao Tuo's only son, so Zhao Shi is all elite.
Zhao Shi originally thought that his trip to Bushan was just a simple gilded battle, but unexpectedly, the 60,000 soldiers and civilians guarding Bushan directly taught Zhao Shi a lesson:
When Zhao Shi led 70,000 South Vietnamese elites to Bushan City, Zhao Shi first ordered the South Vietnamese army to surround Bushan City, and then accompanied by a group of generals, he circled around Bushan City, and finally pretended to choose a place that he thought was the easiest to break through as the main target.
Zhao Shi's South Vietnamese army launched an attack on Bushan on the night it besieged Bushan.
When the South Vietnamese army rushed to a distance of 200 steps from the city of Bushan, they saw countless torches set up on the city tower, and countless rockets were poured down from the city tower for a time, taking the lives of 2,000 South Vietnamese soldiers in the blink of an eye.
Seeing that the South Vietnamese army suffered a big loss under the bow and crossbow of the Qin army, Zhao Shi had no choice but to give the order to withdraw the army.
In the next few days, Zhao Shi organized seven or eight more attacks, all of which were stubbornly pushed back by the soldiers and civilians defending the city of Bushan.
By the time the leading general asked for his life, more than 15,000 of Zhao Shi's 70,000 South Vietnamese elites had died in Bushan City.
On this day, Zhao Shi summoned a group of South Vietnamese army generals to the Chinese army's big tent and held a battle summary meeting.
"Generals, at present, this Bushan City is like an iron battle, and my 70,000-strong army has lost more than 15,000 people, so how can I explain to my father? If I can't break through the defenses of Bushan City again, I really don't have the face to see my father again. Everybody says what should we do? ”
"Yu Shizi, according to the report of the informants in the army, the situation of the other two armies is the same as that of my Bushan. The lowly officials thought that they should give up the attack on the other two cities for the time being, gather all the armies under this Bushan city, and take Bushan first. ”
"Yu Shizi, I also think that we should first concentrate our superior forces to break through Bushan County, and then we will say that dividing our troops into three roads like this is really just a futile increase in casualties. I caught a few ordinary people in Bushan and asked, the Qin army defending the city had already built this Bushan County into an iron wall half a month ago, and there were countless money, food and materials hoarded in the city. If this is the case, even if I run out of 70,000 horses, I am afraid that I will not be able to enter this Bushan City. ”
After listening to the words of the two deputy generals of the unified army, Zhao Shi nodded helplessly.
"I agree with the opinions of the two generals, and I will send a letter to Panyu tomorrow, asking my father to hand over the power of commanding the army to me. After the military power is in hand, I will mobilize the other two armies to this Bushan city according to the opinions of the two, and I don't believe that the 150,000 army will not be able to take this Bushan county. ”
Without waiting for Zhao Shi's letter to be sent, Zhao Tuo's letter was first delivered to Zhao Shi's camp.
When Zhao Shi read Zhao Tuo's letter, he almost burst out for a while.
"There are 120,000 troops around him, is he afraid of 10,000 tiger troops? What's more, this army of 10,000 tigers is not necessarily going to Panyu. Tell me how my South Vietnam became such a timid king. Zhao Shi scolded angrily.
"Shizi, please be cautious!" Immediately, someone said dissuasion.
Zhao Shi reluctantly glanced at the generals in the big tent and handed the letter in his hand to these people. When these generals read the letter handed to them by Zhao Shi, they shook their heads to express their helplessness.
"Tell me, I was about to advise the three-way army to gather to attack this Bushan County, and he would send 30,000 horses from me back to defend Panyu. Is there such a war? If I die in Nanyue, I will die in this cowardly king of Nanyue. ”
"Son, don't say it again." An adjutant general hurriedly dissuaded.
……
The next day, Zhao Shi reluctantly divided 20,000 people from the remaining 65,000 people and asked a deputy general of the unified army to bring them back to Panyu.
Regarding Zhao Shi's unauthorized change of the 30,000 people in Zhao Tuo's edict to 20,000, all the generals of the South Vietnamese Army in Bushan pretended not to see it, after all, they all understood a truth: the major national affairs in their eyes were nothing more than the private affairs of Zhao Tuo's family. Therefore, they will never get involved in the matter between Zhao Tuo and Zhao Shi's father and son.
When Fusu learned the news of Zhao Shi's division of troops, he immediately led his army into Guilin County.
In fact, Fusu has been paying attention to the changes in the situation in the three counties of Guilin County, but because there has been no fighter plane that satisfies him, he has been hesitating at the junction of Qianzhong County and Guilin County. When the Tancai sent back the news of Zhao Shi's division of troops in Bushan City, Fusu was very excited and immediately led a large army to rush to Bushan County.
Three days later, in the morning, Fusu's 45,000 troops rushed to the periphery of Bushan City, Fusu and a tiger army general quietly touched the South Vietnamese army's nose, only to see Zhao Shi's 35,000 men and horses still besieging Bushan City, but the morale of the South Vietnamese army was obviously much lower, and it was obvious that the unsuccessful siege of the city for several days had seriously dampened the morale of these South Vietnamese elites.
After exploring the situation of the South Vietnamese army under Bushan City, Fusu returned to the outskirts of Bushan City with the accompanying generals.
When he returned to the army, Fusu did not rush to attack Zhao Shi's South Vietnamese army, but hid the army in a nearby dense forest.
In the middle of the day, when the sun was scorching the earth, Fusu led his army out of the dense forest and galloped towards the South Vietnamese army outside Bu Son City.
When the South Vietnamese soldiers saw the large group of men and horses killing them, it was too late to organize an effective defense. The 40,000 Tiger Ben Army rushed into the South Vietnamese Army like a flock of sheep, bringing a bloody storm, and the group of Qingzhang Mountain soldiers who followed the Tiger Ben Army almost became a prisoner brigade.
When Peng Yue climbed the tower, he recognized the tiger army fighting on the battlefield at a glance, so he picked up 5,000 defenders and killed them outside the city.
When Zhao Shi, the commander of the South Vietnamese Army, saw that the Tiger Ben Army was overwhelmingly killing his South Vietnamese army, he already knew that he was powerless to return to heaven, so he fled from the South Vietnamese army camp under the protection of several relatives.
When Zhao Shi escaped from the South Vietnamese army camp, he happened to be seen by a group of Qingzhangshan soldiers, and this group of Qingzhangshan soldiers chased after him regardless of it.
When the battle ended, the Hu Ben sergeant reported to Fusu on the annihilation of the enemy and his own battle losses:
In this battle, more than 20,000 South Vietnamese troops were killed and wounded, more than 13,000 were captured, and more than 2,000 escaped.
Looking at the casualties of the Tiger Army, more than 30 people were lost in this battle, and 120 people were slightly injured. Except for 30 people whose whereabouts are unknown, there were no casualties.
