Just when Sun Jing was preparing to go to war, more than a dozen sky lanterns were suddenly set off in Shu County. This was Zhou Hui's action under Wang Zheng's signal.
These sky lanterns are made of bamboo strips tied into a square frame, paper on the lake is made into a big lantern, burning rosin is placed on the base, and they fly into the sky with the help of hot air. They fly high in the wind, and the candlelight illuminates the red lantern.
A little, scattered over the entire battlefield.
Sun Jing stared at it for a while, and of course he knew that the sudden release of these sky lanterns in the city had a purpose. However, although all princes had sky lanterns, how many of them were released by each house, what color they were, and what their meanings were.
They are all different.
Since he couldn't understand, Sun Jing just kept a vigilance in his heart. After the cavalry was assembled, he looked away. He did not encourage morale, but simply said one word in a concise and concise manner: "Let's go."
However, the two messengers who were ambushing in the forest at the foot of the mountain outside the city either rode horses or galloped out of their hiding places as soon as the sky lanterns were raised. As Wang Zheng's subordinates, they naturally knew that these sky lanterns were
Conveyed the royal decree:
While the enemy's attention is distracted, it's time to rush into the city.
Intelligence is the eyes and ears of war. For Wang Zheng, even if he cannot break through successfully this time, he must at least create opportunities for outside messengers to enter the city. Only then can he formulate new corresponding strategies based on the development and changes of the outside war situation.
The messengers were sneaking in the dark night, and the lights in Sun Ce's tent were brightly lit.
"At this point in the war, there are no brave generals in Shu County." Looking around at everyone, Sun Ce suddenly heard: "Everyone, how do you think Wang Zheng will respond next?"
The generals looked at each other for a long time, and finally one of them said: "Wang Zheng is a weak man in his young age. Although I heard that his character is quite calm, after all, he is strong-blooded. And when he got into trouble that day, he boasted of his "natural power", and
He has fought with Wen Chou, Zhang Fei and other contemporary tiger generals one after another, never falling behind. He is brave when he is young, but he is arrogant when he is strong. From the perspective of the last general, his strategy is nothing more than four words."
"Which four words?"
"Go into battle personally!"
"This view is exactly the same as mine." Sun Ce raised his hands and laughed, and added: "It's not just because Wang Zheng is young and brave. If he really wants to break out, Wei Yan and Qiao Wan have already weakened, even if he can't
I am willing to go to war, but I have an arrow on the string and I have to do it. I have no choice but to do it."
Summoning the herald, he said, "I am sending an order to Ling Cao in the front formation. Sun Jing pays attention. If the city gate is wide open and Wang Zheng goes out to the formation, there is no need to go forward to invite a battle. He only needs to involve the siege.
, I will take it personally!"
The fire is burning, and the night is getting darker.
During the battle below the city, several cavalrymen suddenly rushed out of Sun Ce's army formation, circled diagonally and rushed to the gate. The soldiers guarding the gate saw their origin clearly and did not stop them, so they let them go straight into the city. Before they had time to dismount, they urged their mounts to go along the way.
After galloping up the horse track and reaching the city tower, two or three knights rolled off their saddles and prostrated themselves before Wang Zheng.
Although these three people were all from Wu Sheng's tribe, they were divided into two groups. It was only because Sun Ce suddenly tightened the encirclement again before that they could not easily enter Shu County again. Therefore, they clearly set off one after another, but the same group came to Wang Zheng.
The messenger who set off first bowed and performed a military salute, and then said loudly: "Report to the general, our army has achieved a great victory. We defeated the Sun thief Huang Gai's tribe three days ago and conquered Liu'an!"
As soon as these words came out, there was a brief silence on the top of the city. It seemed that it was a bit unbelievable that the Xuzhou reinforcements had recaptured Lu'an in less than ten months. After a while, Zhou Hui suppressed his excitement and asked again:
"really?"
The messenger glanced at Zhou Hui and said proudly: "The county magistrate said this, how dare I lie about the military situation in front of General Tiangong?"
Now everyone no longer had any doubts. Tao Ze couldn't help but said: "It's not easy. We have been fighting for such a long time. Every time we receive reports of the Sun thieves attacking the city, this is the first time that we have regained the lost ground."
Indeed, although Shuxian's resistance was extremely tenacious, which could be regarded as causing the invincible Sun Cejun to suffer, in the end it was just a passive defense. The significance of Wu Sheng's recapture of Liu An was completely different, and he was not even defeated.
The ordinary Sun thieves won't take it, but the elite troops led by Huang Gai will get the grand prize!
After experiencing too many defeats, I finally achieved a victory, which is a great encouragement to people's hearts and morale!
"How come Liu'an was the first lost territory to be recovered?" At this time, the messenger shook his head and said, "Hefei was the first to be captured by General Huang Zhong."
"Oh, yes, yes."
No matter what, after confirming the matter, not only Zhou Hui looked happy, but Tao Ze and others also took the lead in cheering. The cheers became louder and louder, gradually filling the whole city.
Wang Zheng was in the same excited mood, but unlike the others, it was clear that this victory that restored face to the Yangzhou Army was created by the Xuzhou Army under his command, but his face was very calm, and he suppressed his joy.
Affected by the era of information explosion in later generations, he always felt that the superior person who was the master should be indifferent to emotions and anger. And because he was self-aware and knew that he was not a hero at heart, he had strict requirements from the beginning.
Yourself, the superficial articles must be done well!
Therefore, he always behaves well in front of outsiders, especially when there are many people, and he has to look young and mature.
Therefore, when others were excited and excited, Wang Zheng first said warmly to the messenger: "Thank you for working so hard to report the victory to me."
When the messenger heard this, his heart was filled with heat and his face was glowing. He secretly admired him and thought: "What a surprise that the front line won! The general was so unhurried and unhurried, as if everything was as he expected."
It seems like he has the air of a king." He didn't even dare to say so.
After Wang Zheng encouraged him for a few more words, he said calmly: "Bring me the front-line military report, I will read it."
"Promise." The messenger respectfully took out the military report and presented it with both hands. Wang Zheng opened it and looked at it. Compared with the previous military reports, this one contained less words.
"In the first year of Jian'an, on the sixth day of the seventh month in autumn, at noon. Because it was known that the Sun bandits and horses in the city were weak and had no fighting spirit, our army launched another attack on the city. Before it was too late, Wang Xiong's troops defeated the eastern defense line again and the city wall collapsed.
Guo sacrificed wine and prepared Wu Sheng, Huang Zhong and other generals to gather in the east city."
"In this battle, Guo Jijiu even went to the front line in person. He lost his will and fought to capture the city. He gave the order: "Anyone who turns back beheads, and anyone who stops has his feet cut off!" Each of the generals led their elite troops to attack one after another. The soldiers fought hand to hand, and lost stones like stones.
In the rain, all the soldiers fought to the death, and no one retreated. More than a thousand of Sun's thieves were killed. At the right time, the enemy general Huang Gai heard the news and went to the east city. Riding on a horse and wearing silver armor, he galloped into the city and gave orders. Sun's thieves and other generals also followed suit.
Relief arrives and the battle reaches a stalemate.
"With the vision of Huang Gai approaching, General Huang Zhong dismounted his armor and rode his horse, with his flesh exposed and his sword raised. He shouted and led his troops straight into the city, hoping to capture him alive. Although the enemy army was numerous, there was no general who could unite; although the warriors were few, they were all unstoppable.
One against a hundred, the cry was astonishing. The thief general Huang Gai was frightened by his divine power, and was defeated again before fifty rounds. General Huang Zhong raised his arms and bent his bow, and hit him in the face with an arrow, causing him to fall off his horse!"
"The enemy lost their main general, and all the Sun thieves were frightened and fled in panic. They were defeated and trampled on each other, killing countless people. In the end, two thousand people were beheaded and more than a thousand were captured in this battle. Huang Gai and his generals were captured alive, but only Sun thieves were killed.
The leader's brother, Sun Quan, escaped with a few horses, but General Wu has sent out sentries to chase and kill him along the way, to guard against careful searches!"
Why is Sun Shiwan in Lu'an?
Did he even escape?
Wang Zheng was startled when he heard this. This matter was not mentioned in the previous military report, and then he burst into laughter again.
What's wrong with being here, so what's wrong with escaping?
Sun Quan may have performed extremely well in defending the throne, strategizing, and even fighting in the palace, but now his family, Sun Ce, and even the Sun family of Wu County behind him have become incompetent. It has reached the point where it's either you die or I live. Sun Ce still has a chance to give Sun Quan
Will he leave a foundation for Jiangdong to develop his talents?
If he can stay, he will be defeated and die, and he will never see that day. Why worry about Sun Quan?
After thinking about this, Wang Zheng no longer thought about it anymore. He just looked around with the military report and smiled at Zhou Hui, Tao Ze and others: "When the last military report was sent, Fengxiao boasted to the general that it would be completed within five days.
We will be able to regain Liu'an. Now, it will be within five days, isn't it? Good, very good, very good!"
The great victory in Liu'an was indeed a happy event. Although Wang Zheng was overjoyed, he was not dazzled by the victory. He looked sideways at the messenger and asked: "It is certainly gratifying that our army has won after breaking through Liu'an, but we must not underestimate the enemy and advance in a hurry.
To aid Shu County, Sun Ce may have an ambush outside the city, intending to encircle the area for reinforcements, so we must be on guard."
As soon as he finished speaking, another messenger on the side said: "General, I am here to report this matter."
"The generals kept in mind the general's instructions. After retaking Lu'an, they personally led the main force to Hefei a few days ago. They had already crossed the Chao River and were rushing to Shu County day and night. No trace of the enemy was seen along the way."
"We arrived in Hefei yesterday?" Hearing this, Zhou Hui laughed and said, "Then we can reach Shu County in three to five days at most."
"Exactly." The messenger said: "If there is no ambush by the Sun thief, it will take three days. Even if there is an ambush by the Sun thief, General Wu has already made up his mind to teach the villain to tell the general that within five days at the latest,
The troops will arrive outside Shu County, and they will immediately launch an encirclement and suppression campaign against the Sun thieves!"
"Yes." Wang Zheng nodded, and then asked: "Now that you have arrived in Hefei, have you contacted the Yuanzhou Animal Husbandry Department in Chengde?"
Previously, Hefei and Lu'an were trapped in the Huanggai, and Chengde in the northwest immediately became the frontline gateway. According to Wang Zheng's expectation, if Yuan Shu did not completely lose his mind, he would immediately send heavy troops to defend Chengde!
Now that Wu Sheng, Huang Zhong and others have captured Lu'an, it will only be a matter of time before Shuxian can be rescued. But is that what Wang Zheng expected?
His purpose from the beginning when he led his army south was not to aid Yuan Shu, but to complete his efforts in one battle and completely eliminate Sun Ce!
In this case, Chengde's troops and horses will naturally be borrowed for use.
"Before the villain comes, Guo Jijiu has sent an envoy to Chengde, asking him to send troops together with our army, so as to take the opportunity to form a counter-encirclement against the Sun thief according to the general's previous instructions. The envoys sent by Guo Jijiu are all punished by heaven.
The brothers in the battalion are all elite soldiers, so logically there should be no problem in successfully reaching Chengde."
The messenger said: "As for whether we have been contacted now, I don't know."
Zhou Hui and others on the side saw that he had a cheerful tone and a sound when he landed, like gold and stone intersecting, showing that he was very high-spirited and brave. They also saw that this man had found a pair of Sun Cejun's black and green armor from somewhere.
, his face was smeared with mud, and he could be said to be wise and resourceful, and everyone admired him in his heart.
There are no weak soldiers under a strong general, and a messenger is so outstanding, which shows that Xuzhou's army is full of talents.
Wang Zheng nodded when he heard this: "The envoys sent by Fengxiao to contact Yuanzhou Mucheng De's Ministry are just like you, and they can indeed be called "elite soldiers and generals". Once the contact is established, the news will be around the corner."
But I am secretly feeling cruel in my heart. If the Skeleton King continues to patronize and shout without doing anything, I will really go crazy!
At this moment, there was a sudden burst of cheers during the battle between the troops below the city. Everyone at the top of the city hurriedly walked to the crenel and looked down. They saw Qiao Wan, who had put on his helmet again, raised his sword to drive his horse, and defeated Sun Ce again.
A stronghold of the army.
Zhou Hui sighed sincerely: "I didn't expect that this woman, who looks so delicate and frail, could have such courage that no man would deserve. She is as good as a Shang's wife!"
Fuhao of the Shang Dynasty was the first female general recorded in the official history of the Celestial Dynasty. She was the original wife of King Wuding of the Shang Dynasty. She was ordered to fight on the battlefield many times, and every time she was asked to fight, it was either a big battle or a powerful enemy.
Among the remaining oracle bones, her name appeared more than two hundred times!
"Xin Jibu, I have three thousand women who have ascended the throne, and ten thousand troops have ascended, and I have been fighting against the Qiang." It means that one summer, a war broke out in the north of the Shang Dynasty. The two sides were in a stalemate, and Fu Hao took the initiative to ask Ying to lead the army to go out, and finally won a great victory.
.
Although Fuhao died at the age of thirty, she had defeated more than 20 neighboring kingdoms in the Shang Dynasty. She was invincible in every battle. In terms of achievements, there were few male generals of the same era who had such outstanding achievements.
and.
Wang Zheng smiled when he heard this, but he had some inexplicable doubts in his heart.
Originally, there was no record of Da Qiao being so powerful in history. Is it a mysterious change caused by his own time travel, or is Sun Ce too chauvinistic and doesn't want his wife to be exposed, so he confines such a powerful fighting force to a boudoir?
After the excitement of the victory, everyone focused their attention on the battlefield again. After all, reinforcements were just around the corner, and the most critical thing now was to survive the moment when the reinforcements arrived.
On both sides of the battlefield, Sun Ce's army and the defenders each lit many torches, which illuminated the center of the battle for several miles as bright as day.
Wang Zheng looked down at the battle situation and saw that although Qiao Wan defeated Sun Ce's army three times in a row, there were also two generals on the enemy side who performed well. One was naturally Ling Cao, and the other middle-aged general was unfamiliar, but he saw that they were strong.
The horses are hammering and galloping, and they are invincible wherever they go, and there are few generals under their command.
Wang Zhengdeng was slightly startled.
Sun Ce, are you Doraemon?
I've already killed so many generals of yours, why do you turn around and come up with another one that can kill you?
That person was naturally Sun Ce's uncle Sun Jing. Naturally, Wang Zheng didn't recognize him, so he pointed to him and asked, "Do you know who this person is?"
Zhou Hui shook his head. Tao Ze looked at it for a while and said with some uncertainty: "It seems to be Fenwu Colonel Sun Jing, Sun Youtai?"
"Sun Youtai?"
Hearing this word, Wang Zheng felt vaguely. Isn't Sun Jian Zi Wentai? "Isn't this Sun Jing related to General Polu?"
Tao Zedao: "Wang Zhoumu's expectation is correct, this person is Sun Jian's brother."
After looking carefully for a moment, he found that although Sun Jing had no memory in his own memory, his combat prowess was indeed impressive. Wang Zheng was secretly speechless and could only laugh at himself and said:
"Zheng heard that Jiangdong Menghu's grandson Polu was famous for a long time. He just regretted that he was born at the wrong time and could not see him in person. But seeing that his son and younger brothers are so brave and capable of fighting, he knew that it was definitely not a false rumor."
