Chapter 550 : Chapter 264 Zhang Yun, who is good at infighting (2)
Forty-two thousand troops attacked a city with only eight thousand defenders, and the casualties on the first day were more than ten thousand. This is too exaggerated.
But Zhang Yun was very satisfied.
More than 10,000 casualties may seem like a lot. But as soon as the war is over, the wounded will be able to live and breathe. The real number of dead may only be 3,000 or 4,000.
This loss is not big.[
What he needs is credit and how many people he has beheaded. As for how much he has lost, let's put that aside for now.
"It will be General Wang tomorrow and we will continue to attack Fancheng." Zhang Yun turned to Wang Wei and said.
Wang Wei did not immediately agree, but after pondering for a moment, he raised his fist towards Zhang Yun and said: "General, although we are outnumbered and powerful, if we cannot attack for a long time, we will definitely suffer heavy casualties. The general and Zhongye's troops will not be weak."
Stay in the main camp. The last general will lead the five armies to sneak attack Xinye. Xinye city is lower and the defenders only have 4,000 people, so it is easier to attack. As long as Xinye is captured, Fancheng will become a turtle in a urn."
Wenpin's heart moved, and he immediately felt that this plan was feasible. When the enemy cannot attack for a long time and is in a stalemate, it is normal to find another way and take the wrong path.
But Zhang Yun didn't think so. If Wang Wei raised his troops and attacked Xinye, Wang Wei's achievements would be greater than his. On the other hand, considering the ferocity of Lu Su's army during the day, only he and Wenpin were left.
With more than 10,000 troops and horses guarding the camp, Zhang Yun felt that there was no sense of security.
"When a large army goes out for an expedition, the most important thing is not to divide the troops. This plan is too risky." Zhang Yun vetoed it.
"This." Wang Wei was furious. He first proposed a strategy to attack the city when Lu Su's foothold was not stable. Zhang Yun rejected it.
Now that the army was in dire straits, they once again proposed to divide their forces to attack Xinye. This was rejected again.
Looking at Zhang Yun, who is as good as a straw bag, even a clay figure is angry. What's more, Wang Wei is still a military commander.
"General Wang, please wait for orders." At this time, Wenpin said.
Wenpin was helpless, but Wenpinzhong was also a pure military general. It is only natural for a military general to obey orders. What would happen if he did not even listen to the general's orders at a critical moment?
"No." Wang Wei's expression changed after hearing this, and he finally agreed.
"Huh." Zhang Yun felt very unhappy when he saw this. It was obvious that he couldn't suppress Wang Wei, a famous Jingchu general, but Wenpin suppressed him with his prestige.
"Tomorrow, General Wang will take the lead. He will show off his momentum and fight until every soldier is left, and then he will capture the city." Zhang Yun felt unhappy and immediately retaliated.
Fighting to the end of the battle means that Wang Wei has exhausted all his troops. No matter how powerful a general is, if he loses his elite soldiers, he will become a hairless phoenix, worse than a chicken.
Wang Wei's face suddenly turned ugly.
Wenpin was furious when he saw this, and his expression became even colder.
Zhang Yun didn't realize this. At this moment, he was in a very good mood. He pressed Fancheng and defeated all Wang Wei's troops, and then added part of Wenpin's army. He didn't believe that Fancheng could not be captured.
The army commanders of both sides had already made their decisions. After a night's rest, the sound of drums sounded again in the early morning of the next day.[
On this day, it was Wang Wei and another general's turn to lead an army of 12,000 to attack the city.
On the city, the soldiers of Lu Su were in high spirits after resting all night. Zhao Yun, wearing a suit of silver armor, stood proudly at the top of the city, like a spear that would never bend, with great momentum.
