Chapter 247: Flee and slash the enemy
Xiangyang is more than 150 miles away from Zhengzhong, Da Xian is more than 10 miles away from Xiangyang, and Longzhong is 20 or 30 miles away from Xiangyang.
Under the clear strategy of quickly destroying Meishiki, Zhang He was worried that Zhizhong would be aware of it, so he adopted a strategy of high speed and led the elite infantry to ride 5,000 and rush to attack Zhengzhong.
Cao Ren led more than 10,000 people to leave Xiangyang, set up camp and build a camp in Da Xian Mountain, to the south can be used to respond to Zhanghe in Zhezhong, and Li Tong in Longzhong can be seen in the west, and the geographical position is superior.
Huo Jun noticed Cao Ren's movements, ordered the scouts to watch Xiangyang and Da Xian Mountain, and asked the sergeants to try to go ashore during the day, and spread out torches along the Han River at night to make the action of going ashore and camping. Cao Ren also made a move, sending sergeants to patrol the river, and whenever Wu Chu's soldiers came ashore, they would take the strategy of attacking halfway.
Huo Jun and Cao Ren confronted each other, and that Zhang He took a day and a half to arrive in Zhezhong, and the barbarian king Mei Fu did not expect Zhang He to lead the army to arrive, and he was in a panic. Mei Shi surrendered to Zhang He, begging to surrender, but secretly gathered troops and horses.
Zhang He saw through Meifu's thoughts, didn't give Meifu time at all, and led his soldiers and horses to break through the village and surrender Meifu. With the surrender of Meishiki, Zhang He sent troops and horses, and asked his subordinates to carry Meifu's orders to migrate to Dazhai in Jizhongman.
At this time, Zhang Fei had already led his cavalry to travel more than 100 miles from Dangyang, and had traveled more than 10 miles south of Zhezhong.
Zhang Fei's thick fingers reached into the grain bag and grabbed a handful of bean grain, feeding the war horse. He himself and the knights chewed on the bread, sometimes with a dry mouth, and took a water bladder and poured water into his mouth.
Huo Junjun ordered it to go down the Han River and send it to Zhang Fei and Huang Zhong. Told Zhang Fei the movements of Zhang He's troops, and conveyed his military orders.
After receiving Huo Jun's military order, Zhang Fei was not ambiguous, and led more than 1,000 cavalry soldiers to rush to Qizhong. Give the foot soldiers to Huang Zhong's command, and let Huang Zhong lead the foot soldiers to arrive by boat.
Zhang Fei looked up at the big sun, fanned the wind with his hand, and said, "Junyi, have the scouts returned?" ”
Shiren shook his collar to dissipate heat and said, "General, according to the footsteps, you should be back." ”
Zhang Fei sat in the shade of the tree and said with a smile: "Zhang He, this guy is so bold and dares to move the people in front of our army, how can I let him get his wish." ”
Zhang He is not a person without scheming, he led the sergeants to attack Zhezhong, that is, he valued the speed of the soldiers, made a time difference, and moved away from Zhezhongman. However, his actions were noticed by Huo Jun and sent a message to Zhang Fei.
When Zhang Fei learned the news, he also led his cavalry to attack, not wanting Zhang He to succeed. After all, let Zhang He succeed in breaking the village and move the people north, Cao Ren, who was stationed in Daxian Mountain, would send troops to support.
While Zhang Fei was waiting, the scout galloped back, turned over and dismounted, and said, "General Qiyu, Zhang He has broken through." The barbarian king Meifu was captured by him, and now Zhang He ordered the soldiers to go out to plunder the people, and there are only 800 soldiers and horses under this tent. ”
There are more than 60,000 people in the city, more than 10,000 households, living along the river valley and mountainous areas, so naturally they will not all live together. Zhang He broke the big village where Meifu lived, and wanted to move the people north of the barbarians, so he naturally had to divide his troops to the countryside to gather the people.
"Eight hundred soldiers and horses?"
Zhang Fei, who was sitting on the ground, grinned and patted his legs, and said in surprise: "Quickly let Erlang get on the horse, pursue Zhang He, and don't let him escape." ”
"No!"
Zhang Fei put on his pocket, pulled the reins, turned over his horse, held his lance high, and shouted to the cavalry under the tent to follow.
"Boom~"
"Boom~"
The war horse galloped, the smoke and dust billowed and killed in the coffin.
The terrain is mainly low hills. Now that it was summer, the weather was unbearably hot, Zhang He sent a sergeant to go out to take prisoners, and he led 800 of his henchmen and cronies to rest in the shade of trees.
Knowing that he was screaming in the trees, the cool breeze blew, and it was very cool.
Suddenly, several scouts rushed towards Zhang He, looking very frightened.
"General, the southern cavalry is coming!" The scout shouted pointing to the south.
"What?"
Zhang He, who was resting under the tree, jumped up in a hurry and asked, "How many people are there?" ”
The scout replied: "The smoke and dust are billowing and innumerable, and the one who comes is Zhang Fei." ”
"Zhang Fei?"
Hearing that it would be Zhang Fei, Zhang He was shocked again.
Zhang Fei's name, how could he not have heard of it. His courage is as famous as Guan Yu, and he is known as the enemy of 10,000 people. How did it come so fast? It could be that he detected his movements in advance.
Shi Shu, a henchman on his side, asked: "General, our soldiers are scattered and plundering the people, if we can't repel Zhang Fei today, the people will no longer be owned by us!" ”
"Battle?"
Zhang He's mind was spinning, and he scolded: "Today, the soldiers are scattered and plundering the people, and there are only 800 people under the tent, how can you fight Zhang Fei!" ”
"That ......"
Zhang He pulled the war horse, interrupted Shi Shu's words, and said: "Abandon the people of Zhezhong, lead the army to retreat north, and order the troops to retreat to Xiangyang, don't be greedy for property." ”
"No!"
On the knowledge of current affairs, among the generals of the Cao Army, Zhang He is the first. Now that the situation has changed abruptly, Zhang Fei is coming, and he knows that something is wrong. Zhang Feineng came with his cavalry, he must have noticed the movement of his relocation, so he came prepared.
He has 800 people under his tent, how can he defeat Zhang Fei and his cavalry. At this time, the only way to do this is to withdraw the army, and we can't even give up our own lives for the sake of destroying the people. And he fought with Zhang Fei himself, so maybe the people of Yizhong would still help, so how could they fight.
Just go, Zhang He turned into the wind, knowing how to be willing and knowing how to advance and retreat.
Not long after Zhang He led 800 elites away, the Yimin of Zhengzhong had no time to escape, so Zhang Fei led his cavalry to come.
"Where did Zhang He go?"
Zhang Fei tugged on the reins and asked loudly.
Seeing the angry Zhang Fei, Yimin said nervously: "General Qiyu, General Cao has heard the name of the general, and he has already led the army to flee and does not dare to stay." ”
"Bastard!"
Zhang Fei looked at the north and spat and said, "Zhang He, this guy can really run, the machine is unparalleled, cover or so!" ”
Mei Shiki, who surrendered, walked out of the crowd and said gratefully: "Thank you to the general for saving me, otherwise we will be in a foreign land." ”
Zhang Fei squinted at Mei Shi and asked, "Who are you?" ”
Mei Shi nodded and said, "A certain is the head of the Yimin Monarch, and I have seen the general. ”
Zhang Fei pointed with his whip and said, "This place has been robbed by thieves and soldiers, and it is no longer safe. And you will lead your people to the south of Dangyang, where you will have your own soldiers to answer you. ”
"Ahh
Mei Shiki's face changed greatly, and he said, "I'll wait for the world to live in the ......."
"Huh?"
Zhang Fei stared at Mei Shi with his eyes as big as a bell, and those eyes were full of coldness, so frightened that Mei Shi did not dare to speak.
"Junyi took Mei Junchang and his subordinates to retreat south and handed them over to General Huang." Zhang Fei commanded.
"No!" Shiren replied.
Zhang Fei held the reins and said loudly: "Although Zhang He is fleeing, there are still soldiers and horses looting outside the tent, and he will kill the thieves with me. ”
"No!"
Huo Jun explained Zhang Fei's task, that is, to defeat Zhang He and move away from the barbarians. As for the tens of thousands of people guarded by Li Tong on the Longzhong side, they will be solved by Huo Jun and his soldiers and horses.
Although Zhang Fei did not defeat Zhang He today, he also won tens of thousands of barbarians. At this time, Huo Jun had also made a move, and he had a strategy of attacking the east and west.
Before dawn, on the Hanshui River, dozens of large ships took advantage of the darkness of the night to secretly move westward. The ship was carrying Ding Feng, Yu Shao, and 3,000 elite sergeants, who would attack the Longzhong Mountains at night.
In order to cover the second general, Huo Jun attacked Cao Ren's camp at night. At this time, the waters east of Da Xian Mountain and Xiangyang were brightly lit, reflecting the river and attracting all the movements of Cao's army.
Why is it so difficult to relocate the people, and why is it necessary to deal with Cao Jun so much? The core lies in the fact that the people are around Xiangyang this time, not far away from Xiangyang.
There were seven or eight hundred miles of plains and hills between Jiangling and Xiangyang, and Cao Ren withdrew to Xiangfan. Cao Ren's radiation range is not large, only one or two hundred miles. However, the people of Zhonglu and Yicheng where Cao Ren migrated were less than 100 miles away from Xiangyang.
Huo Jun was very ambitious, he wanted to push the battle line to Dangyang, and eat as many people as possible around Xiangyang. If he migrates first, he will be easily attacked by Cao Ren. After all, it's not easy to grab food.
Now Cao Ren has gathered the people in the Longzhong Mountains, and Huo Jun only needs to defeat Li Tong to plunder the people and leave.
If you ask what should happen when the night raids on the barracks are chaotic and the people flee in the dark?
Then thanks to Li Tong, in order to prevent the people from escaping, Li Tong placed the people in the mountain col, surrounded by mountains on three sides, and bordered by the exit in the north. As long as Ding and Yu defeat Li Tong, they can win all the people.
The shore where the boat disembarked was only more than ten miles away from the Longzhong Mountain Col.
General Ding and Yu led the sergeants to carry torches, and each tun and each other were connected with ropes, so that no sergeant would get lost. When the camp was six or seven miles away, most of the sergeants extinguished their torches and relied on the sparse light of the fire to move forward.
Ding Feng, who had experience in night raids, divided the team into several columns, and led his soldiers forward, erasing the necks of the sentry soldiers on the way, and slowly approaching the camp.
At this time, in the camp of Cao's army, Li Tong was lying lazily in the camp tent. Recently, he has almost been busy, and most of the people of Hannan are reluctant to migrate, except for letting the soldiers take the lead, he uses force to threaten to migrate.
He drove the people of Hannan to Longzhong Mountain Pass, but there were many people who wanted to flee, and every day he had to prevent the people from fleeing. It is also necessary to solve the trivial things that happened among the people, which made Li Tong very troubled, and it was not what he wanted.
He was originally a ranger, and when the world was in turmoil, he and Chen Gong, a native of the same county, raised troops. Among them, he used despicable means to annex other rebels, and swallowed the soldiers and horses under Chen Gong's account, and became a tyrant in Langling County.
In the first year of Jian'an, he saw an opportunity to join Cao Cao and began his path of promotion. Now that he has been appointed to Runan Taishou, he saw Cao Cao's defeat at Chrysostom, and rushed from Runan and Jiangxia frontiers to help Cao Cao. I hope that after moving the people north this time, Cao Cao will reward him again.
To tell the truth, if there is no chaos in the world, how can ordinary heroes such as Li Tong, Huo Jun, and Lu Su be in high positions, and every chaotic period is an opportunity for them to jump. Therefore, Li Tong is by no means an ordinary person, otherwise he would not have been able to climb to a high position.
Since Li Tong was ordered to relocate the people, he has done his best to arrange his military camp at the mountain pass to prevent the people from taking the opportunity to escape. He was wary of Huo Jun coming to seize the people, but from the beginning of his camp, he never saw Huo Jun's army, and there were Xiangfan and Da Xian Mountain to the east of him, so he gradually slackened off.
Suddenly, there were shouts of people in the col one after another, which made Li Tongda, who was woken up when he fell asleep, frown. This kind of noise of the people is almost every night, either you steal my things, or you touch my daughter-in-law.
The noise gradually subsided, and Li Tong was already snoring. However, I don't know how long it took, at this time, there was a noise in the camp again, Li Tong faintly heard in his sleep, he thought it was the sound of the people in the mountain col, but he continued to sleep with his head down.
Then, the guards outside the camp shouted in panic: "General, it's not good! ”
Li Tong, who was originally asleep, with his battle-hardened experience, suddenly got up from the couch and asked, "What's the matter?" But the people revolted? ”
He relied on military migration to suppress it, and it was not that there were no rebellions among the people, but they were all suppressed by him.
The guard lifted the curtain and shouted, "It is not the people who have rebelled, but the enemy army has attacked our camp at night, and now they are in the camp." ”
Li Tong put on his armor, took his blade, and hurried out of the camp. Without the sound insulation of the tent, shouts of killing and screams poured into his ears.
He looked left and right, and found that the defenders, like him, were accustomed to the noise of the people, and most of them were in a deep dream, and basically did not respond. It wasn't until the enemy came to the front that some of the defenders did not react. Rushing to meet the battle, how could he resist the elite of Wu Chu who entered the camp.
"Whoosh!"
The sound of breaking the air resounded around the camp, and the screams of their own soldiers rang out one after another.
Hearing the sound of the bow and crossbow, Li Tong's face had changed. Those who dare to use bows and crossbows in night battles and close combat are basically elites, and their enemies must also be elites who are good at night battles.
Night battles require extremely high quality of soldiers, and non-ordinary sergeants can play it. In the Battle of Chrysostom, Huo Jun's whole army went to battle, but the fire that night not only lost the opponent's soldiers, but also his own infantry soldiers were lost in the night, and only a small handful of soldiers could fight.
Ding Feng and Yu Shao followed Huo Jun for a long time, and Huo Jun liked to use night attacks, so their elites already had a set of night raids. Like a sword and shield to open the way, the spear is behind, and the crossbowman is matched with combat skills.
"General, how are we going now?" The guard asked nervously.
Li Tong held the spear in his hand and said in a deep voice: "The Chinese army camp has antlers, and use the antlers to defend it. and the build-up of Chinese soldiers may not be impossible to fight the enemy. And our army was attacked, how could General Cao not know that he would come to the rescue. ”
Li Tong took the lead and said sharply: "Come with me, urgently call the Chinese soldiers to assemble!" ”
Li Tong's camp is divided into two villages, the inner village is stationed in the Chinese army, that is, there are seven or eight hundred people, although the number is not much, but it is the old soldiers of Runan who have followed Li Tong for many years, and they are the elite under his account.
With Li Tong's order, the sergeants of the Chinese army gathered hundreds of people one after another, but in an emergency, they were not in good armor, but they couldn't care about anything when the war was urgent.
"Up!"
"Hold the antlers!"
Seeing that the enemy who had entered the camp was about to move his antlers, Li Tong strode up, fought with spears, and cooperated with the left and right sergeants to kill several Wu Chu soldiers.
After Li Tong killed a wave of soldiers under Ding Feng's account, but not long after, Ding Feng led the elite under his tent to rush over, and the leading soldiers held a large wolf squire, and there were shields to protect each other in the wolf tweezers, and there were spearmen on the left and right, and there were crossbowmen hidden in between.
Wolves, narrow roads, sharp weapons of engagement. and engaged with Li Tong's soldiers, their vision was seriously obscured, and bows and crossbows and spears were coldly pierced out of the branches, killing Li Tong's elite soldiers.
After the Mandarin Duck Array was developed by Huo Jun, the sergeants under his account had a lot to learn, in addition to being used in mountain roads and hills, it could also be used in street battles and night battles.
Li Tong fought ahead, he dodged the puncture of the wolf's head with all his might, and pierced the spear in his hand through the dense branches, intending to stab the wolf's hand to death. However, the shield hand protected the wolf hand, so that Li Tong could not succeed.
Li Tong drew his spear and wanted to stab again, but he was affected by the branches and the night, and several spears rushed out of the wolf's whire, Li Tong dodged one, but couldn't dodge the second. A sharp spear poked into his abdomen, and hot blood gushed out.
Li Tong fluttered and fell to the ground. My mind is full of wealth and promotion, and I am unwilling to close my eyes!
PS: Today's lack of state, forgive me
Lack of state, I feel that the plot is not well written. Everyone's forgiveness, forgiveness!
