Chapter 204: Battle of Wancheng 7

"In my opinion, directly take Zhang Xian's head and throw it under the city of Yexian County, see if you dare to resist in the city, dare not open the city gate?"

"This can't work, do you know if Zhang Xian gave any military orders when he left Ye County? The defender generals of Ye County want to listen to Zhang Xiu's orders, just one Zhang Xian, if he dies, he will die, and the city of Ye County may not be afraid because he sees Zhang Xian's head. In my opinion, it is better to directly move Zhang Xian to reason and make him surrender, and then open the gate of Yexian County for us. ”

"Oh, I don't have to, I don't want Zhang Xian's head, and I don't surrender, I have a thousand iron horses to swing under the city, Zhang Xian is not here, our army directly works, and Yexian with only one or two thousand troops can't be captured by Sparta?"

"I can attack it, I believe this, but just one Ye County, let us fight with heavy losses, is it worth it, I am a Spartan guard worth ten of his people, it's not worth it, it's not worth it, I think it's still able to outwit it."

Several captains and Liu Dang got together, making a lot of noise, arguing about how to take Ye County. Liu Pet looked at this, not only was he not angry, but on the contrary, he was very happy. The soldiers under his command know how to think, which is more important than anything else.

Liu Pet saw that Liu dared not say a word, but just quietly listened to the captains arguing, and couldn't help but be more satisfied. As a commander, you must always listen to the suggestions and discussions of your subordinates.

In the end, Liu dared to call too guarded, and everyone immediately quieted down.

Liu Pet also looked up, not knowing what method Liu Dare would use in the end. I saw Liu Kang: "It's really not worth it, but if there is no fighting spirit in the city, and the dragons have no leader, you might as well break the city directly." Zhang Xiannai is a veteran of Xiliang, with Dong Zhuo, Zhang Ji, and Zhang Xiu in Xiliang for more than ten years. ”

"I mean so, 400 people of our army surrounded Zhang Xian here. The rest of Sparta followed me to Yexian, and if it could go smoothly, Zhang Xian would no longer matter. If you can't go down, you continue to surround Ye County, and I will go back and tell Zhang Xian, just say that Ye County has been taken, Zhang Xiu wants to kill him, let him do what he wants, and see if he surrenders? ”

"Zhang Xian is also a general, if he surrenders to our army, he will definitely not return immediately. Even if he told him that Ye County was actually not under the line, he would be surprised at most. At that time, he didn't need to take Ye County personally, he only needed to go to the city to fight, and Ye County could go down. ”

Liu Pet smiled and didn't say anything. It seems that this time I want to come to Tan Shui to join in the fun, it is a miscalculation, this time there is no big battle at all, from the moment Zhang Xian hits the plan, the battle has basically ended, plus although Zhang Xian's troops in Yexian County have three thousand, but the combat effectiveness is not the same level as Sparta, so far, Spartan casualties are less than thirty, scary.

As soon as he said it, he did it, so Liu Dang led the main force to Yexian County, and the four hundred people on the spot rode on horses and looked at Zhang Xian. Zhang Xian looked at the main force of the large army rushing away, and knew that it was Naye County, but thinking that Ye County was definitely in chaos at this time. Zhang Xian couldn't help but have a lot of thoughts in his heart, from Xiliang to Guanzhong, then to Luoyang, and finally fought a battle in Guandong and returned to Guanzhong, and now he has run to Nanyang, these ten years, I have gone to a lot of places, today, do I want to be buried here.

Not to mention Zhang Xian's entanglement, but to say that when Liu Kang really pointed to Ye County, Ye County was panicked.

The moment the iron cavalry appeared, anyone could understand what kind of small group of scouts crossing the river this was, this was the main force of Chen Guobing.

In a mess, the county order ran away, closed the door and dressed up as ordinary people, and drilled into the people's homes with fine softness. The county lieutenant roared and wanted to command, but the soldiers brought by Zhang Xian are a school captain. And Zhang Xian's subordinates quarreled one by one, and the original county soldiers in Ye County were locals, so they naturally didn't accept you Xiliang guys.

Liu Dang pointed to the wall: "You see, Ye County is still in chaos, and the soldiers on the wall are not tight. Come and shout under the city, don't open the door for half an hour, and break the city without leaving chickens and dogs. ”

A soldier with a big voice standing under the glittering armor outside the city and pointing at the wall with contempt: "You listen to me, Chen Guo, Chen Wangwei, Spartan commander Liu Dang led the army to cross the river, Zhang Xian has been destroyed, and King Chen's 100,000 army is crossing Tanshui, and it will arrive in an hour." When King Chen arrived, he was going to enter the city to rest, and within half an hour, if Ye County did not open the door and surrendered, there would be no mercy for killing. ”

"There is no forgiveness for killing, there is no forgiveness for killing." A thousand Spartans behind him suddenly roared, and the momentum shook the sky.

The walls were dumbfounded, and their faces were pale.

"Yes, yes, look at that banner, this is King Chen's guard Sparta. King Chen's guards are all here, King Chen is here, King Chen is here, General Zhang Xiu actually said that Chen Guobing will not cross the river, so let's surrender. ”

There is only one thought in the hearts of countless people, King Chen is here, the army of 100,000 does not matter whether it is true or not, King Chen is here, but it is estimated to be true, King Chen is here, can he bring fewer soldiers, and he can hold a small city? What the people shouted just now clearly meant that when King Chen came an hour later, Ye County must be in the hands of Chen Guobing, either we surrender, or they would attack the city after half an hour.

For half an hour, no one cared about Sparta's arrogance now, saying that Ye County would be taken in half an hour. Everyone was thinking, what would happen after surrendering?

Liu Dang couldn't imagine that Ye County would surrender so quickly, and after being stunned for a while, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly commanded Sparta to enter the city, control the four gates, and control the troops. Sparta's fine armor and shining weapons made the defenders of Yexian County who were approaching shout in their hearts, fortunately, they surrendered quickly.

At this time, Liu Pet was also shocked, Ye County was taken down like this, this important small city. Ye County was taken, which not only meant that Chen Guobing could not face Zhang Xiu across the river, but also would not consider the problem of having a river in front of him when he came in to attack.

Liu Chong turned around: "Quick, Liu Dang is stabilizing Ye County, you quickly return to Kunyang, order Chen Zhi to rush to Ye County, Lejin 5,000 troops to guard Kunyang as our army's backup, and let Chen Zhi lead Daya to cross the river immediately." Dianjun, let Liu dare to come to see me. ”

Ye County took it, and Liu Pet was going to immediately take command in person here.

Liu Dang ran over after a while, his face was happy.

Liu Pet: "Isn't your kid very proud in his heart." ”

Liu Dang hurried: "King Chen, Liu Dare or not." ”

Liu Pet laughed: "There is a dare word in your name, don't you dare?" Hehe, now you can rest assured, after this battle, no one in the army said that you Liu Dang could not lead the troops. Okay, let's talk about the reward later, you immediately control Ye County, organize the troops in the city immediately, and build a few pontoon bridges in Tanshui, I have already ordered the Kunyang army to rush over, hoping to be one step ahead of Zhang Xiu, and fight in Ye County, which is far more powerful than fighting our army on both sides of Tan Shui. ”

Liu Dang was shocked: "King Chen, since you have decided to confront Zhang Xiu's army in Ye County, why do you still want to keep General Lejin in Kunyang, and leave 5,000 soldiers and horses, so that with General Chen Zhi, Sparta, and the 5,000 soldiers who came over, our army can only gather more than 7,000 people in Ye County, and guard the prisoners." It is reported that Zhang Xiu's overall situation is at least 20,000, Chen Wang, this ---"

Liu Pet nodded, but his face was as resolute as ever.

"I know that 7,000 people are really stressful against 20,000. However, the task of our Kunyang army was originally to attract the attention of Zhang Xiu's main force, so that Li Dian's army on the South Road could smoothly enter the south of Wancheng from the south. So in Ye County, we have to put on a desperate posture, but also not let Zhang Xiu dare not attack the city. We must attract Zhang Xiu here, and the only way is to make Zhang Xiu feel that he has a chance to snatch back Ye County. ”

"Defend Ye County, Tan Shui pontoon bridge is very important, you Sparta are cavalry, I want to be stationed outside the city after Chen arrives, take care of Tan Shui, and at the same time guard the horns of our army, can you be confident?"

Liu Dang was shocked, stationed outside the city, and the time was so urgent, unlike Ye County, there was a city wall, and Zhang Xiu would have an army of 20,000 at that time, even if he wanted to release Ye County, as long as Zhang Xiu sent 5,000 troops to attack Sparta, Liu Dang would also have to bear it.

"Why don't you dare? It is said that Sparta is an offensive weapon, and the white soldiers are defensive strongmen, so I don't believe that I, Sparta, can lose to him. But I have a request for King Chen, I want Zhang Xian. ”

Liu Chong was stunned for a moment, and was slightly shocked in his heart: "You dare to use Ye County to surrender troops?" Liu dared to name Zhang Xian, obviously wanting to control the 2,000 troops in the city through Zhang Xian.

Liu Dang nodded: "If Ye County is lost, Zhang Xian will die if he goes back, I believe Zhang Xian will figure it out." ”

Liu Pet: "Sparta is only 1,500, if Zhang Xian has 2,000 people, when the time comes, you-"

Liu Dang thought that Zhang Xian had more people than him, and he was depressed again, and suddenly: "King Chen, you can divide the surrender army into two, and Yexian County into half, as long as Zhang Xian is placed in our military camp, it is expected that no big thing will happen." ”

Liu Pet: "The matter is urgent, and it can only be like this, I agree, as long as you can recruit Zhang Xian, I will agree that you will lead a thousand Ye County troops to garrison with you in Tanshui, and at the same time allocate 500 elite soldiers from the army brought by Chen Zhi." ”

A total of only 7,500 people crossed Tanshui, counting two or three thousand troops, it was 10,000 people, and all of a sudden Liu Pet put 3,000 people outside the city and handed them over to Liu Kang, so there were only 7,000 people left in the city, and nearly 2,000 were surrendered troops, whether they could be used or not was still a question.

The breakthrough of Ye County came very suddenly, and it was also very sudden for Liu Chong to transfer Chen to the main force of half of the army. There are troops, but what about supplies, grain and grass, and baggage.

When Liu Chong saw the baggage that Zhang Xiu in Yexian County had brought to Zhang Xianxian, he couldn't help but settle down a little bit.

"Report, King Chen, Commander Liu Dare came to report, saying that the heavy arrows in Yexian County do not need to be sent to his military camp, only King Chen needs to provide three thousand men and horses with five days of grain and grass."

Liu Chong frowned, and then let go: "Okay, Liu Dare is right, he is stationed in Tanshui, and it is easier than us to get support from Lejin from the north shore." ”

Chen Zhi just rushed over, and hurriedly came to see Liu Chong, and his mouth was still eager: "Lord, please ask the lord to retreat to the north bank of Tanshui, and support the overall situation with General Lejin in Kunyang, this Ye County invites the main bus to the last general, and the last general ----"

Liu Chongyi raised his hand: "Hehe, uncle and nephew, I know you're worried about me, don't say it, I won't leave." I'm not here, how can I make Zhang Xiu stick here? Half a month, as long as we can hold on for half a month, Zhang Xiu will only have one Wancheng, a lonely city. ”

Then Liu Chong: "Pass my general order, let Lejin be fully responsible for the power of Kunyang, and pass the order Li Dian, don't care about the safety of Ye County, don't let me save me quickly, but to include all the south of Wancheng into the bag, and at the same time guard the Jingzhou soldiers, and then allow the north to enter, otherwise the military law will deal with it." ”

Chen Zhi was shocked, this, Liu Pet is going to put himself in danger, as soon as this military order comes out, Ye County can only rely on these thousands of people, if Liu dares to hold Tan Shui, it's okay, if he can't hold it, Zhang Xiu will block Tan Shui, and even Kunyang can't save Ye County.

It's a gamble.
