Chapter 47 Huang Ye (1) (Additional update for leader Li Yanling)
King Wei of Qi asked Sun Tzu, the commander of the army, and said: "The two armies are equal, and the two generals are facing each other. They are both strong and solid. No one dares to move first. What can be done?"
Shao Shude saw this from the military books, but he felt that it was very suitable for the current situation of both sides at Dongwei Bridge.
The general of the rebel army is Huang Ye, who has more than 30,000 troops and is stationed in the northeast of Chang'an. On the official side, there are more than 14,000 Xia Sui Army led by Shao Shude, more than 10,000 Yifang Army, and nearly 10,000 Li Xiang's troops, with about the same strength.
Well, Marshal Zhuge also led less than 3,000 people to "raid the formation" at Weiqiao warehouse on the other side of the river.
At this time, the atmosphere in the Chao Army camp was solemn, and could even be said to be extremely tense.
Huang Ye had just killed more than ten people in a row, all of them were close servants and even a personal general. The generals who came after hearing the news were dumbfounded and did not dare to say anything.
Huang Ye threw a bloodstained general's uniform on the ground and said with a sad smile: "Before the Yellow King was defeated, there were people who wanted to murder me and defect to the new master. Have your consciences been eaten by dogs? King Huang rewarded you with a beautiful concubine.
Treasures, official titles, when things happen, is this how you will repay King Huang?"
Zhang Guiba looked at the bloody generals' uniforms on the ground and hesitated to speak. According to the misfortune in the army, the generals' clothes were bloody and sweaty for no reason, which indicated that the subordinates wanted to plot against the superiors, so they should be kind and vigilant.
To be honest, he didn't really believe in these things. They were all men who traveled around, and they always only believed in bravery and divination. According to his observation, Huang Ye was not such a person. The blood stains on this clothes looked like
It's been a long time, maybe the waiter was just careless and forgot to clean it. Is it worth making such a fuss about?
He killed more than ten people in a row, and they were all old men who had been following him for many years. Zhang Guiba secretly sighed in his heart, Huang Ye had lost an inch, how could the name of Shao Shude, the commander-in-chief of the Tang army, be so deceptive?
"Last night, I had a dream about a pheasant flying into our camp. This is a serious disaster..." Huang Ye sat heavily on the bed and said with red eyes: "Unexpectedly, I saw the general's uniform stained with blood again today. Humph, okay.
The traitor, seeing that the Tang army was surrounded on all sides, he had a wrong idea. Please note that this general is not dead yet, and anyone who shakes the morale of the army will be killed!"
"I will obey your orders." The generals expressed their stance quickly.
"Everyone, go down and reorganize your troops. If Shao Shude attacks, I will come to the battle in person to let him know that not all of us in Daqi are Zhang Yan and Meng Kai."
After Zhang Guiba left the commander's tent, he wandered around the camp aimlessly. Of course, there were more than 30,000 of them, so it was impossible for them all to camp in one place. In fact, this was the core camp, with only a few thousand people. The Tang army backed up the river.
They were quite courageous to set up camp, but with the Dongwei Bridge behind them, it was not that they had no way out, so they could not be considered risking their lives to survive.
The army is arriving in a hurry, and the camp is not stable. With the current low morale of the entire army, I'm afraid it won't be able to withstand it for long, alas.
"General Zhang, yesterday you said you were going to dig trenches, and a certain general brought all the civilians with you." Suddenly a voice rang in my ears, and I walked back to my camp without realizing it.
"Oh? It's so easy?" Zhang Guiba said in surprise.
"It costs thirty cents per pound of rice in Chang'an. We don't need to use force. There are a lot of people willing to come over." The visitor said with a smile.
"Then let's work quickly. With the trench, we will be more secure."
"As commanded."
Zhang Guiba waved his hand and asked people to leave. Then he looked at the gray sky outside. When the fighting started, maybe even the sky would be stained red with blood, right?
King Huang has been kind to my brother, but now I can only sell my life to him.

Sun Tzu said: "Taste it with a weak pawn, but a brave man will take it. Expect it to be in the north, but don't expect it to be captured. Make a small formation to touch its toilet. This is called a great victory."
"Judge Chen and Sun Bin think that under a deadlock, you can first select brave generals and lead a small group of troops to test the enemy's situation. You must be prepared for failure and attack the enemy's flanks covertly. I think you can give it a try. Who can you choose as your general today?
"In the Tang Army's camp, Shao Shude asked while studying the terrain map around Chang'an.
"Wang Yu or Guo Qi are both excellent candidates," Chen Cheng replied.
"Pass the order."
Wei Boqiu stepped forward.
"Wang Yu selected a thousand elite soldiers and a thousand auxiliary soldiers to test the bandit camp."
Wei Boqiu left in a hurry.
After a while, Wang Yu, who was already ready to go, led two thousand men, selected a bandit camp, and attacked directly.
The auxiliary soldiers carried planks, reeds, and branches on their backs, and under the cover of the soldiers' bows and arrows, they ran wildly towards the half-dug trench dug by the rebels.
Arrows rained down from the front, and from time to time some auxiliary soldiers fell to the ground, but more people rushed forward quickly to build a forward channel for the soldiers.
"Go!" Seeing that there were already several passages, Wang Yu, who was fully clothed in armor and led dozens of soldiers, directed the soldiers to move forward.
"Whoosh!" The arrows of the thief army were very dense, and the shieldmen in the front row were overwhelmed. After suffering heavy casualties, they finally approached the thief camp. However, the thief army here was very dense, and there were also armored spearmen.
Stabbing the royal soldiers who rushed over.
"Throw!" Wang Yu threw a short spear, hitting a bandit soldier in the chest. Dozens of soldiers behind him also threw their spears, many of them made gains, and the bandit army lay down in a large area.
This is the unique skill of Wang Yu's subordinates. They have practiced hard for many years. Wang Chongrong has suffered this loss before, and this time he suffered the same fate as his former colleagues.
After throwing the spear, there was a powerful bow shot. The two sides refused to give in to each other and started a desperate fight on a small area of land.
Wang Yu took the lead. Under the cover of his own soldiers, he waved a long-handled mace and swept among the thieves. Without any arm strength, he naturally couldn't use this kind of weapon. And it was impossible to use such a weapon on the battlefield.
, and generally have some confidence. The mace carries a huge force, sweeping across and slashing diagonally, causing injuries even if it was rubbed and bumped, and even the armor was knocked dizzy.
The soldiers rushed forward, regardless of whether they were stabbing or stabbing the enemy's weapons on the armor. They held their breath and rushed forward desperately, splitting the antlers of the antlers, allowing the large group of people to follow.
"Kill Wang Ni. This man has surrendered to Li Tang. He is worse than a pig or a dog." Before a thief could finish his words, he was hit in the chest by a flying spear and fell to the ground unwillingly.
A large group of sergeants rushed in, and the bandits also arrived. The two sides didn't even have time to organize their formations, and started fighting face to face.
Behind them, the antlers had been split open with knives and axes, and the camp gate was broken open. The wolf-like officers and soldiers rushed in. There were also warriors among the bandit army, who desperately rushed to the door and tried to block it, but more people
Their steps were slow and hesitant, as if they were wondering whether they could hold the camp. They only had more than 2,000 people, and there were also 2,000 officers and soldiers, and there were brave generals like Wang Yu, so it seemed a bit uncertain.
A face-to-face chaotic battle is different from a battle in formation on the frontal battlefield. What is tested at this time is the bravery of both parties, rather than discipline. Personal courage and skill dominate the factors, almost for Lu Huaizhong, Wang Yu,
A stage tailor-made for people like Guo Qi.
At this time, more than one-third of Wang Yu's soldiers had been killed or injured, but the rebels were also killed until they were bleeding like rivers. Many people turned around and retreated. With the influx of large groups of soldiers, the situation became very clear. This
The bandit army can no longer defend the stockade!
After all the rebels in the front were killed, Wang Yu's command was completely empty. The sergeants subconsciously formed a small team, and there were newcomers behind who took off their rifle bows and started shooting as they advanced.
The rebel army could no longer organize effective resistance. Several generals died or left, and the sergeants had no fighting spirit. After a little resistance, they withdrew and directly gave up the village.
After Wang Yu killed the last bandit with an arrow, he felt all kinds of fatigue and stinging pain on his body. His clothes and armor were full of blood, and he didn't know who it belonged to. There was also blood flowing down his helmet, which was half-solidified.
red and black.
Attacking the bandit stronghold in one go, even though the opponent's morale was low, was still a brilliant achievement. If the commander-in-chief knew this, he would be very happy. Lu Huaizhong, Guo Qi, and Zheji Yu would probably not dare to look down on someone anymore.
.
Wang Yu twitched the corners of his mouth and wanted to smile, but blood flowed from the tips of his hair, full of fishy smell.
I have been killing for so many years, from Henan to Huainan, from Huainan to Guangnan, and from Guangnan to Guanzhong. I have killed countless people. I have killed so many people that my body is covered with gold. I have been killed day and night.
, I was tired of killing. Others thought that I was brave and a capable general in battle, but when I woke up in the middle of the night, I was sweating all over my clothes.
Is killing useful in this world? Can killing really keep a family in peace?
Others are afraid of me, so am I...
Marshal Shao was able to persuade the people to punish crimes, so I helped him kill one more time to see if he could make a name for himself in this world of broken rites and broken music.
