When Yang Xiong saw Wai Huang Ling Zhang Er's head.
Not only did he not get angry, but he smiled happily, patted Zhao Tuo on the shoulder and said: "Good Zhao Tuo, I didn't expect you to save a hand. This time you actually killed Zhang Er, a famous scholar from Wei State."
"This time, we really won a great victory. Your contribution, Zhao Tuo, is second only to mine."
"Haha, thanks to Brother Yang's wise command, otherwise Waihuang City would not have been captured so easily." Zhao Tuo said modestly.
"Of course, you didn't see that Zhang Er personally led his elite men to station in the west of the city. However, my army attacked him with a direct charge and beat him to pieces..." Yang Xiong smiled happily.
Open your mouth from ear to ear.
Zhao Tuo saw Yang Xiong smiling happily, and he also laughed.
This is why Yang Xiong was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Qin army, so he dared to kill Zhang Er privately.
Otherwise, if it had been someone else, like Huan Zhao, Zhao Tuo would not have dared to do this. At most, he would have told She Jian to kill Zhang Er directly when he encountered him and not capture him alive.
Zhao Tuo is still quite satisfied with the configuration of this thousand-man team. Although Yang Xiong is not very talented, he is very good at delegating power. He will basically not object to any decision made by Zhao Tuo and Zhao Ben, but will often reply with
"I think so".
Although Yang Xiong was the chief general, he never gave random orders and allowed his capable subordinates Zhao Tuo and Zhao Ben to make decisions and arrangements. At most, he would brag a few words about himself when taking credit.
Zhao Ben is very practical in his work, although he and Zhao Tuo are both Lords of Five Hundred and are on the same level in terms of positions.
But Zhao Ben does not seek credit, obeys orders, and is willing to follow Zhao Tuo. He is a very good right-hand man.
Coupled with the friendship the three of them had formed when they served as lieutenants in the palace, Zhao Tuo was at home in this thousand-man army.
His name is Five Hundred Lord, but he is actually the decision-maker of the entire thousand-man team. The only thing he needs to pay attention to is to mention Yang Xiong from time to time. Once Yang Xiong is happy, he doesn't care about Zhao Tuo's operations and arrangements.
Now with the end of the Battle of Waihuang, the results of the Qin army have also been cleared up.
In this siege battle, the Qin army beheaded a total of 320 people, captured more than 400 people, and suffered less than a hundred casualties.
This kind of casualty ratio is very rare in siege battles, especially when the number of defenders is significantly greater than that of the siege, such battle losses are really incredible.
The reason for this is that in addition to the effectiveness of Zhao Tuo's trumpet tactics, it is also thanks to those who took the lead in escaping and causing a rout of the defenders.
There were more than 300 heads, but only a small part of the guards killed on the city wall. Most of them were captured by the Qin army in pursuit of death.
There is no way to kill like this. When Yang Xiong's group persuaded Xiao Huang to surrender, none of his soldiers received first-level military honors. Many people were dissatisfied. If they didn't gain something in this battle, they would definitely complain.
.
Fortunately, everything has settled, Waihuang City has been captured, and the Qin army has gained quite a lot. Compared to the fear of the Wei people in Waihuang City, everyone in the Qin army is happy and looking forward to the calculation and calculation of military achievements.
The awarding of knighthoods.
When more than 300 heads of Wei soldiers piled in the open space at the city gate began to rot and stink, mosquitoes flew around, and the smell made people want to vomit.
The military merits reported to Yang Xiong were also distributed after review and approval.
In this battle, many people in the thousand-man team received upgrades to their titles.
Among them, under the command of Zhao Tuo, the doctor Shejian captured Zhang Er, the foreigner of the Yellow Emperor, and beheaded the young knight on the way, with a total of eight charioteers.
The thirty infantrymen under his command who did not participate in the pursuit of Zhang Er also killed many defeated troops in the east of the city and obtained many heads. In addition, they shared the credit for capturing the city. From this combined credit, Shejian was promoted.
It is the sixth-level title and official.
As for Black Butt, he led his troops to seize the southern city wall and had the great achievement of ascending the city wall first. In addition, during the pursuit of the routed troops, hundreds of people under his command beheaded many people, which has reached the standard of Yinglun. In addition, Hei Butt shared the credit for capturing the city. Black Butt was tired of his merits.
After moving, he was also promoted to the sixth level of title, official.
In addition, there is also the 500-year-old Zhao Bi. He shared the credit for the army's attack on Chenliu, and the credit for the attack on Xiaohuang and Waihuang. Therefore, he was promoted to the eighth-level title of public transport, and he was the same as Zhao Tuo.
Same level.
As for Zhao Tuo and Yang Xiong, although they conquered two cities in a row, it is relatively difficult to be promoted to the title because they are the eighth-level public knights. If they want to be promoted to the fifth level, they still need to make another contribution.
OK.
"The rest of the credit is not good!"
This was the idea of Zhao Tuo and Yang Xiong. Although they had captured the two cities of Xiaohuang and Waihuang in succession, and the soldiers under their command did not suffer much damage, they would have some troubles if they wanted to take credit again.
Because they were not the only troops sent out by Wang Ben to attack the counties and counties of Wei State.
The five thousand Guanzhong partial divisions led by Huan Zhao mainly attacked Chenliu in the east of Daliang and the nearby cities of Xiaohuang and Waihuang.
To their north, the Qin army from Dongjun was besieging Taoqiu, the large city of Wei, and soldiers from Hanoi were attacking Jiyang and nearby Yangwu counties.
To their south, in addition to the 10,000 Huaiyang soldiers attacking Suiyang where Ningling Lord Wei Jiu retreated, soldiers recruited from Nanyang and Nanjun were also simultaneously attacking the counties in the southern part of Wei State.
The huge Wei State has been dismembered and divided by the Qin army and is being gradually eroded.
The only remaining cities in the east of Wei, such as Shanfu County, are relatively remote and still have the Wei flag flying. But this is only a temporary matter. When Daliang falls and the Qin army is free, no Wei city can escape this.
The war that destroyed the country.
In this case, the area near Chenliu had already been divided by various Qin armies, and there was no chance for Zhao Tuo and Yang Xiong to make great achievements again.
…
Chen Liu was in the city.
Huan Zhao got Yang Xiong, the success of Zhao Tuo's capture of Waihuang, and even saw the head of Zhang Er, the leader of Waihuang, with his own eyes. This made Huan Zhao jealous, but he couldn't help but admire Zhao Tuo's ability.
Huan Zhao knew very well how capable the two to five hundred leaders Yang Xiong was, and the one who really played the decisive role among the thousands of people was probably Zhao Tuo.
As expected of someone who was favored by General Li, a mere thousand men could conquer a county town.
Even Huan Zhao, who had always had grievances, couldn't help but look at Zhao Tuo with admiration.
Yang Xiong's men, as his subordinates, captured two cities in a row, so Huan Zhao naturally had merit.
However, Huan Zhao is now trapped in the same troubles as Zhao Tuo.
"Wei Bao is really abominable! If he hadn't burned Chen Liujisu, my contribution this time would be enough, and I would definitely be promoted to the rank of right concubine!"
Huan Zhao gritted his teeth when he thought of this. Wei Bao burned the grain and fled without a fight, so that his strategic goal of advancing eastward was not achieved and he did not gain full success.
He only has a little merit to be promoted to the right concubine, but now that Wei has been divided by various Qin armies, there is no chance.
Just when Zhao Tuo and Yang Xiong were feeling regretful and Huan Zhao was cursing.
Jiyang City is dozens of miles away in the north of Waihuang.
Thousands of Qin troops who were originally besieging Jiyang were attacked by a Wei army that suddenly appeared in the rear. They fell into chaos instantly. At the same time, the gates of Jiyang were opened wide, and the Wei soldiers in the city rushed out howling.
Under attack from two sides, the partial division of the Qin army from Hanoi was instantly defeated.
On a mound, Wei Bao smiled.
He turned to look at a yellow-bearded Wei general beside him, and thought to himself: "This week, the city forces me to lead the army north to rescue Jiyang. This man does have some abilities."
