Chapter 958 Zhang He takes over Gao Shun's army, Zhang Bin enters the enemy camp alone
"General Mo, I wonder if you have ever heard of such a saying: The male rabbit's feet are twitching, the female rabbit's eyes are blurred, and the two rabbits are walking next to each other, how can they tell whether I am a male or a female?" Guo Ziyi said leisurely.
"My dear brother, this plan is wonderful! It's wonderful!"
Mo Peng also understood everything at once, and he understood it all at once.
Aren't they just a group of pirates?
No matter if he is a real pirate or a fake pirate!
It’s not like Yanbei Navy has never done this before as a guest pirate!
Moreover, don't they have a large number of pirate ships under their control?
At worst, they will use these pirate ships for themselves first, and when they are almost used, they want to sell these pirate ships directly to make extra money for the brothers.

Hedong Road.
Su Dingfang's early battle was quite difficult. Although he defeated the Great Sword Dynasty at Meshui River, it still did not change the situation of the enemy being strong and me being weak.
After the Battle of Meshuihe, Su Dingfang temporarily let go of the Great Sword Dynasty due to the critical situation at Guan Yu's place, and led 10,000 black cavalry to aid Guan Yu.
Su Dingfang's 10,000 black cavalry arrived in time. Although Guan Yu's siege was temporarily relieved, the situation was still not optimistic. Because of the defeat of Meshuihe in the Great Sword Dynasty, Xiao Ruolin returned with the 40,000 troops who originally confronted Gan Ning.
.
Not only that, in the Battle of Meshui River, although the Great Sword Dynasty was directly beheaded 5,000 people and captured 8,000 people, they still had nearly 40,000 soldiers and horses.
Although the morale of these 40,000 soldiers and horses was low after experiencing the defeat in this battle, after the Dajian Dynasty and Hedong and Hexi soldiers and horses joined forces, this numerical advantage was enough to ignore those problems.
Thirty thousand soldiers and horses fought against nearly 140,000 coalition troops. No matter how brave and skillful Su Dingfang was, he could only retreat steadily. He fought several defeats in a row, throwing away five cities along the way and nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses.
Fortunately, just when Su Dingfang was about to lose his strength, Di Qing's 30,000 troops finally returned from Shanyang Road. With the addition of these 30,000 troops, although it was far from enough for Su Dingfang to turn the tide of the battle,
However, it at least gave him some resistance.
The return of Di Qing's 30,000 troops shocked Su Dingfang's troops and also made the coalition forces anxious.
Although the return of Di Qing's 30,000 troops was not enough to change the strength gap between the enemy and ourselves in the Hedong battlefield, it was a bad signal for the coalition forces.
This all tells them that the battle in Shanyang Road will probably end soon. Su Dingfang's tens of thousands of soldiers and horses are nothing, but if you add the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in Shanyang Road, then
, they will completely lose their military advantage.
Therefore, the coalition forces are eager to deal with Su Dingfang's troops and achieve their goal of defeating them one by one before the follow-up troops from Shanyang Road arrive.
However, Su Dingfang and Di Qing are both famous generals. If they do not rush forward easily, but continue to be "shrunk turtles", who among the coalition forces is likely to break this turtle's shell in a short period of time?
Sure enough, everything that followed was going to be unfavorable to the coalition forces.
Within a few days, the information that only the Sanyang Army on the Yue side of Wuyue Mountain was left in Sanyang Road was struggling and resisting.
In just a few days, even the only remaining Dumiao Wuyue Mountain Yuefang headquarters among the Shanyang Army was completely gone. The huge Shanyang Road was about to fall completely into Wang Yu's hands.
Immediately afterwards, they had received news that General Zhang He of Wang Yu's army, leading an army of 50,000, was about to embark on the journey back to Hedong Road.
Once these 50,000 soldiers and horses arrive, the strength of Wang Yu's army in Hedong Road will also be as high as 130,000.
Although on the surface it still has a huge disadvantage compared to the coalition forces, in reality it is no longer the case.
Su Dingfang's original troops on Hedong Road were actually the government forces formed in various places in recent years. However, most of the troops Wang Yu used to attack Shanyang Road were elites born in the Zhendong Army. In terms of combat effectiveness, they were not the same.
.
Therefore, the actual combat effectiveness of Di Qing and Zhang He's 80,000 troops, conservatively speaking, can be equivalent to the 112,000 troops of the coalition.
From this perspective, once Zhang He's 50,000 soldiers and horses arrive, even though the coalition forces have a strength advantage, it is no longer so obvious.
Excluding the gap in military strength, once the two sides are leaked into a protracted war, it will definitely be bad news for the coalition forces.
After all, what this kind of alliance forces fear most is to fall into a protracted war. The longer it drags on, the more likely it is that their internal crisis will break out.
In fact, this was exactly the case. After Zhang He's 50,000 troops arrived, Su Dingfang was no longer satisfied with defense, but tried to launch a tentative counterattack.
However, among the coalition forces there are also famous generals such as Yun, Ying Xiong, and Gu Jiantang, who are not easy to deal with. It does not mean that they are easy to deal with.
As for the four small dynasties, the bad ships and the three-point nail, there can always be a few capable generals.
With so many people united, even though Su Dingfang launched a tentative counterattack, he was cautious to avoid losing the whole game due to one careless move.
During this time, the two sides have been fighting back and forth. You have a small victory over me for a while, and I have a small victory over you. Generally speaking, neither party has taken any big advantage.
And when the two sides were in a stalemate, after Di Qing and Zhang He, military advisor Zhang Bin also went south from Shanyang to Hedong.
The first thing that military advisor Zhang Bin did after arriving at Su Dingfang's camp was to secretly visit Dahao General Li Wei.
The soldiers and horses of the four small dynasties of Jian Sheng, Lan Hao and Dahao Dynasty were originally confronting Guan Yu's tribe with 30,000 soldiers and horses from Hedong and Hexi. Later, as Su Dingfang's tribe and Guan Yu's tribe reunited, the troops and horses of the Sword Dynasty also joined forces.
Together.
As for the four small dynasties, the remaining two dynasties and the Shenglan coalition faced off against Gao Shun's 30,000 troops.
Speaking of Gao Shunlai, he is indeed unique in the battle of small troops. If it is a battle of less than three thousand or even hundreds of troops, even if Bai Qi and Han Xin's first-rate figures arrive,
It's not necessarily possible to defeat Gao Shun head-on, or maybe Gao Shun will have an advantage.
But in this kind of large-scale confrontation, Gao Shun was a little overwhelmed.
Fortunately, although Gao Shun is a little worse in this aspect, it is thanks to his extremely calm personality that although he suffered some losses, it is difficult to suffer any big losses.
With the arrival of Zhang He's troops, Su Ding conveniently temporarily let Zhang He take over Gao Shun's position. Zhang He replaced Gao Shun and commanded an army of 30,000 to block the 70,000 coalition forces of the Sheng and Lan dynasties.
