Chapter 375: No need to endure it anymore
Time went back a little, and since that day when the scolding and invitation to fight failed, Zhang He and Liu Chan have fallen into a strange confrontation.
The purpose of the cavalry attack is to catch the opponent by surprise, and they will not carry a large amount of grain and grass at all.
But if you retreat to Chencang...... He was aggrieved in his heart.
Second, even from a strategic point of view, it is equivalent to putting the Shu army into the pass, and when the army enters the pass, how the situation will develop is really beyond his prediction.
If Guan Zhong loses because of this, his life will end here.
But it is impossible to attack the city, not even a thunderbolt, a rushing car, or a well, and it is impossible to attack a fart city.
Can you still expect these precious cavalrymen to do it?
Therefore, Zhang He, who rushed here with 3,000 elites, after scolding and inviting the battle failed, directly used his 3,000 horsemen as foot soldiers and people's husbands......
He not only built a simple camp in the east of the street pavilion and the exit from Longshang to Guanzhong, but also set up antlers in the direction of the street pavilion.
However, if you want to confront Liu Chan, grain and grass have become a big problem.
They came here with one person and two horses, and in order to facilitate their movements, they only carried seven days' rations with the army, and they saved money to last for more than ten days.
Now that it is the height of summer, the war horse can still gnaw some grass nearby for emergency, although it hurts the horse so much, there is no way to do it in a hurry.
Can't people eat grass together?
If it was really miserable, there would be no need to fight this battle, and the morale of the army would have collapsed long ago.
Zhang He had never heard of any army that could still fight with grass roots and tree bark!
When pigs fly.
Fortunately, the grain was boiled into gruel and drank for more than ten days, barely coping with the food before the grain ran out, and the people sent back to transfer grain from Chencang finally came back with grain, grass and people.
The golden cavalry not only had enough to eat, but also was liberated from the rough work of building camps that they usually did not have to do.
The morale that continued to fall has finally begun to stop falling and rebound.
Zhang He's movements in the past ten days were all seen by the people sent by Liu Chan, but he was not in a hurry to send troops.
For Cao Wei's cavalry, there was a brief battle in the three eastern counties, and even won, but Liu Chan did not forget that it was due to the bonus of terrain.
Three thousand horsemen, against eight thousand infantry troops, even if the Modao team has been expanded, Liu Chan does not dare to take the risk of taking the initiative.
He had come here to avoid a repeat of the mistakes of the horse, although his appetite had grown further as the war progressed.
But he studied with Uncle Zhuge and grew up with Zhao Yun practicing martial arts, he may seem reckless when he rushes into battle, but he rarely ventures strategically.
"Heir...... How long will we have to endure it? There were no outsiders in the house, and Ding Feng couldn't hold back anymore after enduring more than ten days of torture.
Hu Li, who was in charge of the reconnaissance at the front, was also anxious: "Yes, they dare to insult you like this every day, and the heir is calm......
After speaking, he took off the iron jacket and threw it on the ground, turned his back to Liu Chan, and sat on the ground with his ass.
"Our brothers can't take it anymore!"
Liu Chan couldn't cry or laugh, walked over and gently kicked him on the cheek: "What are you doing, how do you look like a little child, your son doesn't have this virtue when he practices martial arts with Yinping on weekdays, it's not a shame." ”
Hu Li tilted his head, and he didn't say anything in anger, but after all, he didn't dare to play with Liu Chan seriously.
He turned around with a face full of grievances, and there seemed to be tears in his eyes: "Heir...... I listen to them shouting and scolding outside the city every day, but the brothers can't vent their anger for the heirs, which is a shame! ”
Liu Chan looked at Hu Li's moist eyes, and suddenly realized that he seemed to have underestimated the emotional stimulation of this kind of scolding on them.
At the same time, they underestimated their reverence and love for themselves.
The maximum upper limit of Hu Li's favorability is only 100, but people's hearts are flesh and blood, and it is not something that can be completely quantified.
As time goes by, their feelings, or beliefs, about themselves are still precipitating on a daily basis.
He will behave like this today, obviously emotionally has been pressed to the limit, if he is pressed again...... It may backfire, but it will affect the morale of the army.
Ding Feng gently walked behind Hu Li at this time, gently poked his waist and eyes, and said softly: "Okay old Hu, don't be too presumptuous!" ”
Hu Li didn't give face at all, shook off Ding Feng's hand, and knelt on the ground.
"Prince!"
For Liu Chan, taking the time to talk to the Red Star Army soldiers on an equal footing is not only a necessary part of shaping the soul of the army, but also gives him some nostalgic feelings for his past life.
This is a rare relaxation time for Liu Chan, who has traveled alone to this strange and cruel world.
It was the most natural thing for him to talk like this.
But for Hu Li, it is obviously not, although this kind of privilege is something he is proud of all his life, he can boast to future generations when he is old.
But in fact, no matter how long it has been, he is full of trepidation in his heart when he talks to the prince on an equal footing, and talking like this now is the most relaxed way for him.
"Prince, I, Hu Li, was originally just a thief in Emei Mountain, but the world is so big that there is nowhere to stay, and I can't get a background for my children and grandchildren even if I try my best......"
Hu Li's head staggered on the ground, the green tendons on his forehead bulged, and in his wide-eyed eyes, tears finally dripped on the ground.
"It was the prince who taught me martial arts, horseback riding, and literacy...... It made my life a personal one. Gave us a home, even worthy of a brother like me......"
His hands clenched tightly, trembling slightly.
"My kid has a background, and I have hope in the future, and I have nothing to worry about."
Hu Li suddenly slammed his head on the ground again: "There are brothers who are worse than me, none of our brothers are afraid of death, but we can't stand that no one dares to insult the prince in front of us!"
"As long as the prince gives an order, we will leave the city immediately and fight to the death with those bitches! If you don't kill Zhang Hepifu, you swear not to be a man! ”
Hu Li's words also made Liu Chan quite moved.
It can't be pressed any longer.
Liu Chan was still touched, not to mention Ding Feng and the money behind them.
Qian Duo also followed and paused: "Prince, we are willing to fight to the death with the Wei army!" ”
Even Ding Feng knelt down with him, although he didn't speak, his intention was already very obvious.
"Report - Prince, there is an urgent military situation when you get along!"
Well?
"Speak."
"Yes, Guo Huai led the army to attack Ji County, and was cut off by His Majesty and the Prime Minister's army, and Jiang Wei, the captain of Chixing, led the army out of the city to pursue and break the enemy army!
"Guo Huai's army has died and surrendered, and the whole army has been wiped out! His Majesty is sitting in the rear, and has ordered the prime minister to personally assemble the army, and lead the Red Star Captain Jiang Wei to come to reinforcements in the future! ”
Liu Chan's eyes immediately lit up.
Shangtai was actually taken down?!
The three members of the Red Star Army also raised their heads with joyful expressions: "Prince? ”
"Hu ......" looked at their hopeful eyes, Liu Chan exhaled a mouthful of turbidity, he was not muddy, every time he inspected the city defense, he could hear the scolding outside the city, and he had already held back the fire in his belly.
Although it was slightly different from his own plan, Li Er didn't know what was going on.
But with a big victory in the rear, the effect is the same.
The time has come, since everyone can't bear it anymore, then fucking put up with a hammer!
Liu Chan said solemnly: "The generals of the Red Star Army listen to the order!" ”
The three of them were overjoyed and clenched their fists: "In!" ”
"Inform Meng Yan that the whole army will go to bed early after eating and drinking, and the army will be reorganized on the third watch tonight, ready to attack the enemy camp with the lonely night!" The corners of Liu Chan's mouth raised, "Wait for tonight, and you will be happy to kill alone!" ”
"Yes, the last general obeys!"
