Chapter 48 The enemy generals attack the food route
The armed forces of the aristocratic families could hardly stop the Youzhou army.
Especially when Liu Ming fought undeclaredly, the aristocratic family was not prepared at all, and they could not connect and help each other. The road was paved with the arrow rain of the arrow rain of the arrow rain of the arrow rain, and the new army followed him to find the cheaper; the other road was paving the way with the siege troops, and used the trap to seize the difficulties, and then the new army came forward to pick up the cheaper.
The former mainly focuses on rural areas and towns, while the latter specializes in attacking important county towns and county towns. Different divisions of labor and different battle speeds, but the gathering points are in front of Jinyang City!
In the fifteen days, the two troops rushed to Jinyang City with lightning speed. Even if there was a little obstruction, they were quickly pacified. The military newspaper had been sent back, just waiting for special officials to come and take over. Five hundred new soldiers were left in each important city to maintain public order, and twenty to fifty soldiers were left in the local area just in case...
This directly led to the number of new troops dropping to 20,000, and together with the Arrow Rain Knights, 30,000 troops.
After a series of battles, the new army had experienced the atmosphere of the battlefield. Gao Shun even used the battle instead of training mode, using the most extreme means to transform these new recruits from the chaos of the Yellow Turban Army era in the past and become a qualified soldier.
The most important thing is to let them understand Liu Jun’s military rules, Liu Jun’s rules, and Liu Jun’s glory. To put it bluntly, it is to let them have a new belief and further ideological problems be solved separately.
Jinyang City is currently mainly ruled by the Taiyuan Wang family behind Wang Yun. The county magistrate is Wang Yun's second brother Wang Hang. This city also has guards, and there are two.
The main general was Wang Hang's son, Wang Yun's nephew Wang Ling, who later defected to Cao Cao and eventually became the Grand Marshal of Nanxiang. Unfortunately, he and his nephew Linghu Yu wanted to depose Cao Fang, the third emperor of Cao Wei, and then took poison and committed suicide after the incident. It can be said that if he had not had this stain on his life, his life would be worth it.
Wang Ling was only twenty years old at this moment, and had just achieved some success in martial arts, and only understood the military strategy. Both of them had not yet reached the point of being integrated. It was just that his father was the county magistrate, so he naturally became the main general at the age of twenty.
The deputy general is more mysterious, named Yang Ling.
The date of birth is unknown, and he looks like he is only in his thirties. His hometown is unknown. No one knows where he came from, and he doesn't say anything. He doesn't say where he learned art, and how many years he has learned martial arts and military skills, he only knows that his martial arts are very strong, but he doesn't know much about military skills.
For now, he can only be considered a qualified general. He can get into the position of deputy general because he was in Luoyang. When Wang Yun arranged for Yang Ling to fight with Lu Bu for fifty rounds and was undefeated. With this result, not to mention being a deputy general, even a general guarding one side would be fine!
Now that Jinyang City has been surrounded by Liu Jun, Wang Hang is extremely anxious at this moment. This person who is busy waiting to die and is a senior, is not a problem at all. Letting him make a decision at critical moments will never work.
As a last resort, he could only ask Yang Ling and Wang Ling for advice.
"It is impossible to ask for help from Chang'an. The only way is to kill the army outside... In terms of the combat power of the defenders in Jinyang City, it is a bit mysterious... Maybe it can attack their food routes and force them to retreat! At the same time, sending additional troops to Chang'an for help may be spared!" Before Wang Ling could speak, Yang Ling pointed out the key points in blood.
When Wang Hang heard this, this was a solution, but he still looked at his son in a habit.
Wang Ling had no means, or he thought of Yang Ling's idea, but it was not that comprehensive. The most depressing thing was that he would just say it first, just he was adding it. Now he said first, what else would he say?
"I agree with Deputy General Yang's opinion!" Wang Ling could only agree.
Seeing that Wang Ling agreed to this idea, Wang Hang's heart, which was already in his throat, finally settled down. Without saying much nonsense, he sent Yang Ling as a general and led 5,000 troops. Before Jinyang was completely surrounded, he left the city at night to attack Liu Jun's rations.
Bingzhou wants to say the best place, that is, it is close to the border. There are often border markets here, so it is very easy to get horses. Liu Ming has already captured the Southern Xiongnu, but with the high profits, illegal merchants still secretly sell horses to places outside the area occupied by Liu Ming. Fortunately, the best war horses must be registered, so those that can be sold are just good horses that are barely available.
Yang Ling left Jinyang and sent scouts to carefully investigate the news about Liu Junliang. With the help of his familiarity around Jinyang, he quickly went to an ambush in a mountain forest.
Below this mountain forest is the official road, and it is also the only way to transport military equipment and food. After scouts' inquiries, Liu's army's baggage troops did transport supplies to the front line from this official road.
Yang Ling was ambushed here for more than two days, and indeed found an army of about 3,000 people escorting a large number of carriages towards the front line. The army was composed of five hundred cavalry, one thousand shield soldiers, five hundred light cavalry and one thousand crossbow soldiers. The grooms driving the carriages were about five hundred people. Judging from their appearance and temperament, they were probably soldiers... As for weapons, Yang Ling couldn't see them.
Yang Ling was born in Wuzong and was a dignified outer disciple. If he had followed the rules of the world in the past, he would not have been able to become an official. However, now that people with some tricks can learn to become a warrior or cultivator, this undoubtedly lowers the status of these outer disciples.
From that time on, the masters did not limit them, and from then on they began to step onto the stage of history.
Yang Ling is not the first Wuzong disciple to become an official, nor is he the last one!
He also investigated Liu Ming and found that Liu Ming’s strongest one was not the troops, but his powerful supplies and supplies! It is no exaggeration to say that if the supplies troops were missing, more than 70% of the troops on the front line would either be completely lost or reduced to 30%.
Liu Ming set up a large number of intermediate stations in various parts of the territory and stocked up a large number of horses and vehicles to ensure that the baggage troops could go to the front line in the shortest time to supply the soldiers on the front line. It is precisely because of this strategy of spending money on old money that the troops on the front line have no worries about food and clothing, and their weapons and equipment can be replaced at any time!
It is precisely because of this that Liu Jun can have such strong combat effectiveness!
For this judgment, he felt that as long as the baggage force was captured, Liu's army might retreat...
However, he also has to consider changing his boss. Wang Hang is not an enterprising person, and there is no chance to continue to be a worker under his command. Perhaps he can defect to Wang Yun or Lu Bu in Chang'an... In fact, Liu Ming's side is not bad, but he is a member of the Dao Sect, so the disciples of Wu Sect will naturally not go there...
Seeing that the Liu family's baggage troops were getting closer, Yang Ling immediately issued an order to attack. Soon, five thousand cavalry quickly came out of the mountains and forests and launched a siege towards the baggage troops.
"Enclose the carriage, and the crossbow soldiers immediately shoot arrows to block the enemy!" The person in charge of controlling the baggage force was Liu San, the veteran general. He was able to take up this important position. Obviously, his identity as an veteran is the key.
In fact, he also decided that he would serve in the baggage battalion in the future. With his ability, whether it was fighting generals or commanding the battle, it was too difficult. From a farmer to a veteran general, he knew where his limit was, and contentment was the most important thing.
Furthermore, he understood more clearly that the logistics force was the guarantee of Liu's strong combat effectiveness. Even the general Gao Shun, who could serve as the commander of the logistics battalion, would probably have to give in to three points. Others might hate the "cold yamen" like the logistics battalion, but it may not be a shameful place for Liu Jun.
With Liu San's order, the convoy began to change at the fastest speed. The carriages began to disperse to the periphery and formed a circular formation; the cavalry were stationed outside to prepare for standby; the sword and shield soldiers were guarding the second line of defense, waiting for the enemy to approach; the Zhuge crossbow soldiers quickly entered the state of the martial god.
That is a special ability that instantly doubles the attack power, defense power, and attack speed within a certain period of time. Only elite troops at the level of the "Martial God" can use this ability. Every soldier who enters the "Martial God" state basically has combat power that is not weaker than that of the second-rate general.
Not to mention anything else, just talk about the moment the opponent came, the crossbow soldiers quickly set out in formation and quickly launched a shooting. In just ten seconds, nearly 50,000 crossbow arrows were fired out like this.
The dense crossbow arrows flew out, covering the invading soldiers in an instant.
Under normal circumstances, only 5,000 soldiers have been shot and killed at this moment.
However, what is magical is that there are still five hundred armored knights. When the horse was shot into a hornet's nest, the abandoned horse jumped up with a big knife, and soon jumped into the formation.
In the position, Liu Jun soldiers seemed to be in a state of unpreparedness.
Or, who would have thought that these five hundred soldiers could jump into the formation easily with just one jump.
The other party did not give Liu Jun time to react, and the big sword in his hand drew arcs, and nearly a thousand soldiers were killed when they were caught. Fortunately, the sword and shield soldiers quickly entered the realm of the Martial God, and then they barely blocked them.
However, no one noticed that Yang Ling had already rushed towards Liu San.
"Come on your life!" Yang Ling waved the big knife in his hand expressionlessly.
That knife was so amazing that ordinary people could hardly see the trajectory of the knife swing, only a white light.
When the white light passed, Yang Ling and Liu San maintained a fixed posture.
