Wen Hua was very anxious, anxious to capture Dajian Mountain, to attack Chengchuan City, and to avenge his brother Wen Zheng.
The ancient sages once said that haste makes waste, and there is also a folk saying that a person who is impatient cannot eat hot tofu. It seems that if a person is impatient, he will act rashly, lose his sense of proportion, and lead to failure. But at the same time, some people say that success will lead to failure.
When it comes to big things, don't stick to trivial matters. We must attack decisively and make prompt decisions.
So what is the difference between eagerness and decisiveness?
There seems to be no difference. If there must be a difference, it may only be the difference between the people who said these words: one is the reflection of the loser, and the other is the sigh of the winner.
There is no truth in this world that is universally applicable, there are only human hearts that are universally applicable. If you win, it is the truth, if you lose, it is the lesson.
Wen Hua doesn't want to be a lesson, he wants to become a model for Jiangzuo's soldiers, a role model for the Wen family's children, a norm in the world, and a legend on the land of Kyushu, so he wants to win this battle!
Playing slowly and steadily is not his style. His troops are quick and he wants to win by surprise!
It was just getting dark and Wen Tianfang's feint attack on the mountain path had not yet begun. Wen Hua led the main attack team to the Yizhou trestle.
Before the operation, he told Wen Tianfang to use three cannon blasts as a signal. As soon as the cannons were fired, Wen Tianfang began to pretend to attack fiercely, while Wen Hua took advantage of the chaos and touched the Dajian Mountain from the front.
Go down to the Dajian Mountain military stronghold, kill the enemy generals, and avenge Wen Zheng!
On the trail of Dajian Mountain, Wen Tianfang rode his horse and stood in front of the military formation, waving to the soldiers behind him, and suddenly the sound of war drums and horns started like thunder.
When Zhao Boyue first heard the thundering drums of war, he did not panic. He sat firmly in the Chinese army's tent and issued an order: "What is the situation outside? Who is coming? How many troops and horses are they bringing?"
"Back to the general, Wen Ziqi, a soldier from Jiangzuo Beifu, brought about three thousand troops with him!"
Zhao Boyue nodded, his expression as calm as a deep pool, without any ripples: "With only three thousand soldiers and horses, they want to attack our military stronghold at Dajian Mountain. Don't you know that Dajian Mountain is a powerful pass with one equal to ten? Instruct the soldiers guarding the city to burn tung oil.
"He, the crossbowmen are ready to fire arrows as soon as the enemy attacks the city, letting them know the power of our Han army."
When the messenger saw that the general was so calm, he felt much calmer and replied with great energy: "Yes, general!"
Zhao Boyue watched the soldiers leaving, stood up and walked to the map, looking at the terrain around Dajian Mountain. He thought in his heart: Although these Beifu soldiers are brave, the general's strategy is still not as good as the Wuman army decades ago.
They also attacked Dajian Mountain from a small road, and also burned down the trestle. They planned to avoid Dajian Mountain and Dengjian Pavilion, but what was the use of bypassing Dajian Mountain? Dengjian Pavilion was easier to defend than Dajian Mountain.
Attack. Now, as long as I hold them back and the two armies are in a stalemate, the advantage will definitely be mine.
As he thought this, Yan Zhuo on the side was also thinking: Logically speaking, the Beifu soldiers should be able to analyze from the scene that a bloody battle had taken place on this mountain trail. If they come from the trail again, the Later Han Dynasty will definitely be on guard. Then they
Why attack from the alley? Is it a feint?
Yan Zhuo thought this and said to Zhao Boyue: "General, could this mountain trail be a feint attack by the Jiangzuo Dynasty? They suffered such a big loss on the trail today, how could they still use the trail as their main attack?
direction?"
Listening to what Yan Zhuo said, Zhao Boyue nodded. He felt that what the young man in front of him said was reasonable: "What you said makes sense, but we should wait until they attack to see if they are bluffing. The defenders cannot
If you feel flustered, you should be as immovable as a mountain."
Zhao Boyue said this with a calm expression, worthy of being a battle-hardened veteran.
Yan Zhuo looked at Zhao Boyue's expression and couldn't help but admire him. This old general was really extraordinary.
Outside the village, the sound of war drums gradually died down.
Wen Tianfang commanded the crossbowmen to fire the first round of arrows towards the Hou Han army stronghold.
The crossbows of the Beifu soldiers are all heavy crossbows. With heavy bows, one arrow can penetrate iron armor! However, Wen Tianfang does not expect to capture Dajian Mountain with this rain of arrows alone.
It had two purposes: first, to frighten the Later Han Dynasty and prepare for the charge of cavalry and infantry from behind. Second, to judge the number of the Later Han army based on the size of the arrow rain from the counterattack of the Later Han army formation.
The round of arrow rain has ended, and the Later Han army suffered few casualties because they had strengthened the city wall.
The ordering soldier knelt down and said: "Report to General Jiang Zuo's army for a round of arrows with more than 600 arrows. Our army only slightly injured more than ten people. Do you want to fight back?"
"Don't fight back yet. We will fight back when they attack the city." Zhao Boyue replied.
When Wen Tianfang saw that the Han army did not fight back, he was startled and thought to himself: This general guarding the city is extraordinary. With this thought in mind, he said: "Second round of arrow rain, shoot, the infantry and cavalry are ready to charge!"
With this order, he fired a second round of arrows!
Under the cover of the rain of arrows, the infantry and cavalry charged towards the Dajianshan camp. The cavalry mounted their fast horses and took advantage of the Hou Han army's opportunity to avoid the rain of arrows. They rushed to the gate of the camp and used the eaves of the gate to bury the weapons made by Perak Hall under the gate.
Thunder bombs were fired, while the infantry carried ladders and rushed straight to the base of the wall.
On the walled city, the Hou Han army saw Jiang Zuo's army rushing to the wall through the female wall, and shouted: "The enemy has rushed under the wall, pour hot oil!"
This hot oil has been burned in advance, and it is so painful that if a large bucket is poured down on a person, it will cause skin peeling and excruciating pain. Although it will not kill people immediately, ordinary people cannot bear the pain.
Several barrels of hot oil poured down by the Hou Han army, and Jiang Zuo's army at the base of the city wall suddenly began to wail. But in the midst of the wail, a loud bang exploded at the city gate, and the buried thunder bomb was detonated.
A corner of the village gate was blown down in the blink of an eye, and Beifu soldiers poured into the village along that corner.
"There are enemy troops pouring in at the gate of the village, shoot arrows!" the soldiers of the Later Han Dynasty shouted.
In an instant, there was a heavy rain of arrows from the Hou Han army. The Beifu soldiers who had just poured into the village gate were shot into hedgehogs and fell to the ground.
In front of the Beifu army formation, Wen Tianfang looked at the siege team under the city wall, ordered the troops to retreat, and ordered the heavy-hitting ballistas and sky cannons to be pulled out. He was going to prepare to launch the most violent feint attack!
This heavy-hitting ballista uses a spear as a crossbow and holds gunpowder at the front. It is the most powerful siege weapon of the Jiangzuo Dynasty and the most advanced siege weapon in Kyushu.
Three heavy-hitting crossbow carts were placed in front of the formation. Wen Tianfang looked at the sky. The bright moon was already high in the sky, and the night was as bright as ink. He ordered: "Fire the crossbow carts! Fire the sky-high cannons!"
The heavy-hitting catapult fired three spears nearly two meters long. The spears screamed in the wind, and one end was inserted into the city wall, blasting out three gaps as high as one person. And as the heavy-hitting catapult was fired, the three sky-high cannons
There was also an explosion in the sky, and Wen Hua on the Yizhou plank road also led his troops to charge towards the Dajian Mountain military stronghold!
