Chapter 100 Returning to the Fighting Field
Chapter 100 Return to the fighting field
Bingzhou Shangjun, the war is urgent.
Lu Bu and his flying cavalry traveled all the way south from Wuyuan County and arrived in Zhenlin County yesterday. The magistrate of Zhenlin County learned about Lu Bu's new official position and intention, and he was "supportive" and ordered people to go out of the city to deliver some drinks.
Lao Jun, but they are not allowed to enter the city...
Lu Bu was initially a little dissatisfied, but thinking that Fushi's situation was critical, he did not investigate further and continued to lead his troops south.
A few dozen miles to the south and west of Zhenlin is Baitu County. According to the battle report of Zhenlin County, it has fallen. After Lu Bu arrived in Baitu, he sent out scouts and chose an open area on the side of the mountain for his troops to camp and rest.
The construction of the cavalry camp is not complicated, because it does not require too many defensive facilities, and even the camp is not completely closed, so the core lies in the location of the camp. For example, the place chosen by Lu Bu has mountains and woods on both sides to provide shelter.
It's very convenient, but it's very convenient to enter and exit from other directions, and there's a mountain spring nearby where you can get water.
The horses in the camp have begun to rest comfortably. Some are enjoying the fodder and beans sent by humans, and some are enjoying their owners washing their bodies by the mountain spring. During the march, the horses galloped hard, and when they arrived at the camp, the humans dismounted and worked. This is also
It's a different kind of fairness.
Over the past few months, the soldiers of the Flying Cavalry have become accustomed to this kind of military life and to Lu Bu's leadership. Some of them have gradually grown from ignorant recruits to experienced and skilled soldiers.
The capable and seasoned veterans just need some time to be tempered by the fire.
Even a scholar like Zhao Qi, who was originally a bit weak, began to have some sense of military lines under the high-intensity training specially arranged by Lu Bu. After he walked into Lu Bu's tent, he reported in a serious voice:
"General, the inventory of the flying cavalry has been completed. In fact, there are 1,663 people. There are another hundred cavalry outposts, 2,300 horses, and all the remaining military supplies have arrived."
Lu Bu didn't answer, just nodded and motioned for him to sit down beside him.
Before encountering Darudan, a small leader of Xianbei, he had accumulated less than 1,500 cavalry by going to various places to exterminate bandits, and then led nearly a thousand cavalry to kill Darudan, during which he lost more than 300 cavalry.
Zhao Qi, Song Xian, and many loyal soldiers who came from the north came to join us. This increased the number to the current number, which is almost close to the two thousand cavalry provided by Lu Zhi.
Although there are a lot of people now, the weapons and armor are not sophisticated enough, and even the equipment standard of riding two horses has been helplessly lowered after several twists and turns.
This time I heard that the barbarians came with nearly ten thousand horses. Lu Bu wanted to eat these barbarians in one bite. But this was ten thousand horses. He had to have good teeth and mouth. After looking at the map for a while, Lu Bu punched his thigh.
It said:
"If the horses promised by General Lu can be obtained in time, coupled with hard bows and crossbows, strong leather and thick armor, my flying cavalry army can defeat these barbarians alone! But now..."
As the saying goes, a good woman cannot make a meal without rice. Even if he thinks he is invincible, due to the huge disparity in strength, he can only adopt a passive roundabout and containment strategy.
It's just that this roundabout strategy only delays the situation of being attacked, and cannot truly solve the siege of Fushi.
Of course, this is not the style Lu Bu likes.
"Wei Xu, Zhao Qi, you two each lead 200 cavalry to attack a certain general's flag and set up multiple flags to go to Baitu County to harass Hu Qi. If Hu Qi comes out of the city, you two must not fight with him. You only need to drag Hu Qi inside the city.
Just ride. Gao Shun, Song Xian, you two will order the rest of the troops tomorrow and follow me back to the army to recover the big city in the northwest first!"
"I will obey the general's orders!"
The four people in the tent replied in unison.
Ordinarily Lu Bu is still just a Sima, but everyone in the flying cavalry army calls him general, as if Lu Bu will definitely become a general in the future...
However, Lu Bu didn't care about this. He just enjoyed the excitement before the war. After he wrote a report on his tactical arrangements and sent it to Lu Zhi on horseback, Lu Bu followed his guards to wash the horses.
Went...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Under the city of Fushi in Shangjun, Wang Shu, who had transformed himself through the art of disguise, has been making suggestions for the Chanyu of Qiang Qu and the leaders of Eastern Qiang.
In order to take revenge, he colluded with the Huns and Qiang people, and the condition of the two parties agreeing to join forces to attack Fushi was that Wang Shu must bring people from the Wang clan to assist in the army...
However, in the past few days, the attack on Fushi City had not achieved good results, which made the two men's attitudes towards Wang Shu begin to change.
The king was helpless about this. After all, he was the governor of Shangjun. Even if the Han Dynasty had not cultivated military equipment for many years and the eunuchs in the city were incompetent, they still had some foundation. Looking at the high city and the deep pool,
It wouldn't be that easy without a lot of trouble...
What's more, you two are just greedy for money, laughing and joking when you go out to plunder, but when it comes to attacking the city, you can't bear to leave your troops. Every time you pretend to attack, can you blame me if you can't defeat it?
At this time, sentry scouts came to report that Han cavalry reinforcements were found in the north of Baitu County.
"I said, Chanyu, the reinforcements from the Han people have also arrived. It's not a problem for us to attack the city here for days. Fushi City is strong, why don't we just attack elsewhere?"
Ouyang Nagu, the leader of the Dong Qiang, immediately said that among the three of them, he was the weakest in attacking intentions. He originally wanted to just catch a handful and stay away. Now that the attack was not going well and the Han reinforcements came, he decided to
I thought about shrinking back first and eating the wealth that I had already obtained...
"Haha, they say that the Qiang people are weak and lack courage. I believe it now. A few casual riders frightened Chief Ouyang into thinking of retreating. In this case, it is not convenient to force him to stay..."
After hearing this, the Xiongnu Qiangqu Chanyu immediately sneered.
"You...you go too far!"
"Leader Ouyang, don't be angry. This is just a joke. If the common people's prediction is correct, I am afraid that the Han cavalry reinforcements will only be in the hundreds. If it is not for the lack of military strength, why is it just a bluff on the white soil? Now the skin is broken
The city is approaching, can the leader part with the mountains of wealth in the city?"
Wang Shu on the side advised helplessly.
"Hmph, the city is about to be destroyed, but I didn't see it. When I came here earlier, the royal family leader said that there was an internal response in the city, and the army would be able to open the door and dedicate the city when it arrived. But where are they now?"
After hearing what Wang Shu said, Ouyang Nagu turned to him and asked.
When Wang Shu heard that he was trying to persuade the other party to start a fight, the other party started questioning him, and he was very unhappy. However, for the sake of his grand plan, he could only patiently explain to the two of them.
The Wang family did have some secret agents in Fushi City, but this time the eunuchs suddenly launched an attack, and many of the secret agents were revealed by the clan members in prison...
Of course, there are still people who have not been removed. Wang Shu also sent people to the city to contact them before the siege. However, he does not know the energy of the remaining people and whether they can succeed. Now he is not sure.
However, this explanation was not enough. Wang Shu went on to tell the two of them that the 500 Han people he had brought had been building siege equipment for several days, and they would be enough to use it in three days.
He also suggested that the two of them take turns arranging troops to capture Han people nearby to drive away the siege. This would consume arrows, thunderwood and other materials in the city, and secondly, they could also tire out the soldiers defending the city without spending too much on their men.
tribesmen.
"Well...this strategy is quite feasible. What does Leader Ouyang think?"
"In this case, let's follow the royal clan leader one more time. I, the Qiang people, will be responsible for driving the people to attack the north gate and the east gate, and the Shanyu will be responsible for the other two gates, okay?"
The two of them saw that there was a feasible plan, so they stopped taking it seriously. They quickly reached a division of labor and took the clan members to retreat...
A massive siege came to an end. Wang Shu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He silently turned around and walked towards the tribe's camp. However, underneath his seemingly lonely figure, he was planning an extremely vicious plan.
Wang Shu insisted on breaking through Fushi City because of Xia Yi, the eunuch governor in the city. Only by getting his head could Wang Shu truly establish his banner of leading the Bingzhou nobles to resist the eunuchs and sit down.
To stabilize the position of the head of the Wang family, in order to achieve this goal, it was acceptable to him to collude with foreigners to invade the Han Dynasty, kill and injure some people, and lose some clan members...
What's more, he didn't really work for the barbarians. When Fushi City was destroyed and he got the benefits, it was time for him to leave. He would not stay and be buried with these two idiots...
