Chapter 89: A Change of Situation (1)
First of all, Fan Xiwen sincerely admitted his mistake to Jia Xu, and then took out two jars of wine again as a reception and apology, and then Jia Xu took the initiative to contribute his own strategy. In fact, it is similar to Fan Xiwen's original plan, but Jia Xu's plan is more insidious.
Jia Xu is talking about Zhang Niujiao and Zhang Shen's calculations together, and asked Fan Xiwen to attack Zhang Niujiao's grain transportation to destroy all Zhang Niujiao's grain and grass, so that Zhang Niujiao, who is short of food because he can't attack for a long time, will be in a hurry to find grain and grass, and this attention will naturally hit Zhang Shen.
Ten days have passed, Zhang Niujiao has suffered under the city of Le'an, but he has never captured the tower, and then Zhang Niujiao directly became a siege, trying to rely on the siege to force the official army out of the decisive battle, but in the end Zhang Niujiao had to admit that the official army in the city of Le'an did have more food than the Yellow Turban Army. If it weren't for the fact that the Yellow Turban had benefited from several battles with Zhang Shen recently, Zhang Niujiao might have run out of food and grass at this time. But even if a lot of them were captured, they were almost exhausted now.
Facing the still towering Le'an City, Zhang Niujiao would rather choose to fight with Zhang Shen, who was stationing the army on the outskirts of Fuliu at this time.
In the past ten days, the White Wolf Village also launched a counterattack on the Yellow Turban Army, Sun Cheng and the Yellow Turban were defeated, and the 5,000 Yellow Turban Army became the prisoners of Chu Village.
And the Yellow Turban Army did not get benefits during this time, at least they took advantage of Zhang Shen. Zhang Shen's ace troops are no longer two thousand at the moment, and his general Liu Mingcai has suffered defeat, and the morale of Zhang Shen's troops is very low, and Zhang Shen has also become the bottom of the three-way game.
Having said that, such an attack actually started yesterday, and yesterday there was a robbery case starring Jin Yiwei that robbed a 500-person grain transportation team of the Yellow Turban Army, of course, the result was still the same as burning the grain, grass and corpses with fire, in short, it must be done that there are people who have never existed in this world.
Although this is a bit of a waste of food, in order to win this protracted battle, Fan Xiwen can't care so much.
"Let's go, let's go to the next location." At Wang Si's order, the cavalry company quickly turned its horse's head and headed towards the next target, leaving a series of horseshoe prints on the muddy path.
The main account of the Yellow Turban Battalion
"Dashuai, we don't have much food anymore, and if we continue like this, we have to guard against the mutiny of the soldiers under our men!" It was the grain and grass officer of the Yellow Turban Army who spoke, and the face of the grain and grass transporter was full of worry and uneasiness at this time.
Because the grain is basically almost up to now, and the team transporting the grain has not returned yet, the grain and grass officer is worried that the team will be attacked.
"Don't think about it, the team must have been attacked by the Fan family." Zhang Niujiao's face also had a hint of impatience, food is the top priority of an army, without food, Zhang Niujiao can no longer organize a team to attack the city. Facing the unbreakable Le'an high wall, Zhang Niujiao could only "look at the wall and sigh".
"So, what should we do?" The grain and grass officer asked.
"What else can I do, follow the path of Fan Xiwen's kid." At this time, Zhang Niujiao's face was also full of helplessness.
"Ahh The grain and grass officer exclaimed. "When did he Fan Xiwen arrange a way for us?"
"Attacking our food delivery team has left our army short of food. We were no longer able to take the siege, and we had to retreat to Fuliu. Soon the siege of Hele'an will be lifted? Zhang Niujiao said, with unwillingness on his face.
"Then Dashuai, let's just forget it?" The face of the grain and grass officer was also full of unwillingness, when he came, there were 80,000 troops, and there were less than 40,000 people left after only ten days of siege. Forty thousand people were lost in ten days, who would be willing?
"But, if you don't forget it, what do you want me to do?" Zhang Niujiao unwillingly pulled out the long sword in his hand and slashed directly at the table.
"Smack." The table case was cut off in response, which showed how dissatisfied Zhang Niujiao was at this time. "Pass the order, and the whole army will retreat to Fuliu." Zhang Niujiao shouted loudly.
"No." A guard outside the tent replied, and then ran to convey Zhang Niujiao's order.
Zhang Niujiao left, with a face full of unwillingness. But he didn't know that this was actually the last time he came to Le'an, and the next big meal was enough for him to stay in Fuliu forever. And Zhang Shen, the prime minister of Anping, doesn't have much time to remember this beautiful country, and this day will eventually change.
It is worth mentioning that on December 6, Fan Xiwen, Zhou Jian, Liu Ke, Liu Kecheng, Fan Fengming, Li Lingsu, Fan Fenglin, Lin Feng, Lin Yun, Wang Jiaxiong, Li Andong and other eleven people held a coming-of-age crown ceremony in Le'an, with great momentum.
After going through a tedious and complicated ceremony, Jia Xu stood up and took the words for the eleven people according to the words that the eleven had already announced in advance.
Fan Xi Zixuan, Zhou Jianzi Zi'an, Liu Ke Zijia, Liu Kecheng Ziyang, Fan Fengming Zihong, Li Lingsu Ji Shu, Fan Feng Lin Zi Guorui, Lin Feng Zi Guotai, Lin Yun Zi Minxiang, Wang Jiaxiong Zi Zhengyun, Li Andong Zi Jianbei.
Then put on the high Confucian crown, at this moment Fan Xiwen and the other eleven people officially belong to the people of this world, at least they have begun to integrate into this ancient life, and everything starts from this word.
After the crown salute, the Le'an army began to attack Zhang Niujiao. First of all, the first step is to borrow troops from neighboring counties, yes, you heard it right. The two county commanders of Tangyang and Raoyang originally planned to sit on the shore to watch the fire and be fishermen by the way, but how could Jia Xu let them get their wish?
Liu Ke took a brigade directly to the door of someone else's house to borrow troops, and at the beginning, these two county orders were naturally unwilling to give! So Liu Ke said that he colluded with the Yellow Turban Army to prepare a rebellion, and directly ordered the troops to put the catapult on it. The two county orders were so capable, and they were deducted by Liu Ke's, and then threatened to hand over Liu Ke's five hundred men and horses.
Don't look at the five hundred people are very few, but this is nearly one-fifth of the strength of these two counties, and not all county towns are able to raise tens of thousands of troops like Le'an.
With a thousand soldiers and horses "borrowed" from the two county orders, Liu Ke turned to Chen Bing Fuliu, but Liu Ke camped dozens of miles away from Fuliu, and Liu Ke was unwilling to go one step further.
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that Liu Ke is waiting for the opportunity, but what can be done? With these thousands of men and horses, they can fight with all the troops of Zhang Niujiao for a few hours, you must know that this army is the elite brigade of Le'an, the oldest military establishment in Le'an. Among the soldiers here, any one of them has nearly a year of military experience, this is a veteran of the Authentic Sect.
Zhang Niujiao faced Liu Ke's Chen Bing, and did not dare to make the slightest movement, but kept strengthening the defense.
At this time, Zhang Shen jumped out, he thought that Zhang Niujiao had put all his attention on the side of the Le'an army, so he ordered the general Liu Ming to personally launch a night attack on Fuliu with his ace troops and two thousand county soldiers.
But who would have thought that Zhang Shen was unlucky, on the surface, Zhang Niujiao was guarding against this Le'an army, but in fact, Zhang Niujiao's attention to Zhang Shen did not relax at all. As soon as Zhang Shen sent troops, Zhang Niujiao immediately arranged an army to retaliate against Zhang Shen.
That night, Zhang Shen's troops were ambushed by Zhang Niujiao and suffered heavy losses, and the general Liu Ming was killed in battle. The rout fled to Xindu, and Zhang Niujiaoshuai's army followed, directly captured Xindu, and killed Zhang Shen.
The movement of this attack was very loud, and Liu Ke understood it as soon as he heard the voice. However, Liu Ke did not send troops to Fuliu, on the contrary, Liu Ke continued to sleep in the camp, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.
In fact, this has nothing to do with him Liu Ke, but has a little relationship with Fan Xiwen. This time, Fan Xiwen made a bloody investment, secretly assembled a total of 3,000 troops from the second and fourth brigades of Le'an, and when Chen Zhang Niujiao's army went out to pursue the remnants of Zhang Shen's army, lightning attacked Fuliu and went down in a battle.
