Chapter 1006: Fenghua Young Master Xiao Ruofeng and Zhang Junyi attack Ye County again
"That's fine!"
"You might as well try this method!" After thinking for a moment, Wang Yu nodded.
Later, Wang Yu asked Zhang He to lead 15,000 troops to attack Ye County in the southeast. He also sent a message to Di Qing and Ganning in the west, asking them to divide their forces to attack Lu County and Ganning in the southwest.
Fan County.
With these three counties, if they block Chen County and Liu County just south of the enemy, an encirclement circle can be roughly formed against the enemy.
Although Hedong Road is dominated by plain terrain, even if it blocks these county towns, the enemy can bypass these counties and pass through them.
However, in this case, their cavalry is not a vegetarian.
No matter where they passed, the soldiers and horses from the counties on both sides would pinch between them like the claws of a crab. After that, nearby soldiers and horses would besiege them from all directions.
This would be enough for them to die without a burial place.
Ye County, Lu County and Fan County were together. After that, Wang Yu once again made a gesture of sending troops to Chen County and Liu County. He wanted to see what Ying Xiong and Xiao Ruolin were like.
Is it urgent or not?
After giving the order, soldiers and horses mobilized, and Di Qing and Gan Ning went smoothly. The area they wanted to attack was originally a small county town, not a fortified city, and there were no troops left to guard the city.
Even if Gan Ning led the navy, the time it took to attack these two counties could not match the time it took them to travel.
However, things didn't go well for Zhang He, and he unfortunately crashed into an iron plate.
Ye County is the clan of the Xiao family in Hedong. However, after they became prosperous, they moved to other places on Hedong Road. However, the Xiao family in Ye County began to become desolate and was no longer as prosperous as it used to be.
But even so, this is still the place where the Xiao family's ancestral graves are located. Every year when it comes to ancestor worship, hundreds of Xiao family members will come to Ye County in a mighty manner.
Even if the Xiao family has now moved out of Ye County, not all the family members have moved away. The only people left to guard this original hometown are Xiao Ruojin and Xiao Ruofeng.
Xiao Ruojin served as the army counselor and military counselor for Xiao Ruolin.
Nowadays, in the entire Ye County, there are only a few Xiao family members headed by Xiao Ruofeng who are looking after the house alone.
There are only a thousand defenders in Ye County, and there are no generals to guard them. Logically speaking, Zhang He can defeat them with his backhand.
However, when Zhang He's troops came to the city, Xiao Ruofeng stood up at that time and took the initiative to assist Ye County magistrate Ye Jingkai in reorganizing the defense. Moreover, because the defense force in the city was insufficient, he did not hesitate to summon the three hundred servants at home.
, used to enrich the defense force in the city.
Xiao Ruofeng's character is somewhat contradictory. Apart from Dongfang, one of the four emperors, the Xiao family in Hedong Road is one of the best. With this background, he can definitely be said to be from a famous family.
Moreover, more than ten years ago, he was born in Da Cang Shang Yin Academy and studied under Mr. Li, a great scholar in the academy.
However, he himself loves to study the art of war. However, in Confucianism, he absorbs the strengths of various sects and has actually dabbled in the art of military strategism to a certain extent. He often trains his servants at home as soldiers.
The Xiao clan itself is one of the top clans in Hedong Road, and it also has a governor like Xiao Ruolin. The most important thing is that their family has won the treasure twice and has become the emperor for two consecutive generations.
The minister of Conglong.
Under this situation, even if Xiao Ruofeng trained his family's servants as soldiers, even if the officials in Ye County knew about it, they would not bother to pay attention to him.
After all, Xiao Ruofeng still has a certain temperament. Even if he trains these servants, he can only equip them with some swords, guns, swords and halberds, such as armor, without even touching them.
Therefore, saying that he has no problems does not mean that there are no problems at all. The main thing is that saying that he has problems is a bit far-fetched and does not touch the bottom line of the court.
Logically speaking, with Xiao Ruofeng's background, if he wanted to join the military, he would definitely have a bright future.
In fact, this is indeed the case. He once joined the army for three years and performed quite well. In just three years, he was promoted several times.
However, he himself was such a charlatan, so just when he was getting his next promotion, he made a decision that everyone in the family could not have expected. He actually resigned and returned home, and
A few little friends went out to hang out.
It is precisely because of this that in the eyes of the Xiao family, Xiao Ruofeng can be regarded as a representative of half a prodigal son. If the other party can develop in the army with peace of mind, among the Xiao family, except for Xiao Ruolin, a local high-ranking official,
In addition, maybe there will be an important general in the army.
However, he chose to lower his status and associate with those people who are not on the stage.
But no matter what, Xiao Ruofeng was also a popular person in the Da Cang Army back then, and he was familiar with the art of war. Ye Jingkai was a very talented county magistrate. It would be really difficult for him to fight if he was allowed to fight.
Therefore, Xiao Ruofeng was willing to stand up at this time. For Ye Jingkai, he brought a pillow because he was dozing off, and simply handed over the defense of Ye County to Xiao Ruofeng.
After Xiao Ruofeng took over the defense, he incorporated the county government officials and prisoners in the prison into the army, and obtained another 300 troops. In this way, they had 1,600 usable forces.
However, Zhang He was still ten times more powerful than them. For them, it was still a black cloud that was threatening to destroy the city.
Therefore, Xiao Ruofeng once again exerted the influence of the Xiao family in the city, using soft and hard methods, and rounded up many aristocratic families in the city, and finally managed to rectify 800 people again.
However, the quality of these eight hundred men and horses cannot be guaranteed. They are also soldiers and horses organized by servants. However, Xiao Ruofeng's three hundred men have had the experience of being trained as soldiers and horses before. Even if they are compared in terms of combat effectiveness,
He is not a regular soldier, but he still has a basic foundation.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! And these eight hundred people are really making up the number.
After that, Xiao Ruofeng could not get away at this time, because at this time, Zhang He's soldiers and horses had already arrived. However, he still asked Ye County Magistrate Ye Jingkai to summon the strong men in the city as defenders.
The reserve team came to help them defend the city.
Zhang He originally did not pay much attention to this small city. After all, judging from the intelligence they had received before, Yingxiong and Xiao Ruolin had limited troops in their hands, so their troops were concentrated in several places. With Ye
The situation in the county means that they can attack easily with 15,000 people.
However, when the attack actually started, he suffered a small loss due to his carelessness.
After a period of fierce fighting, the city gate had been knocked open by a siege ram, and soldiers rushed in. However, thousands of arrows were fired from both sides of the city at this time, and a large amount of kerosene prepared in advance also burned at this time.
In one moment, thousands of soldiers were killed in the sea of flames.
Moreover, it was because Xiao Ruofeng did not have enough troops and did not dare to take risks. Therefore, he just accepted the opportunity and did not insist on greed for more.
This defeat was like pouring cold water on Zhang He's head.
Next, he took the initiative to challenge the enemy general. Of course, fighting the general was not his main purpose, but he wanted to take this opportunity to understand the enemy general's true and false status.
However, although Xiao Ruofeng fought as expected, Zhang He was defeated quickly in ten rounds.
Thanks to General Wang Li's timely assistance, Xiao Ruofeng was finally blocked.
What Xiao Ruofeng followed was not the path of a warrior on the battlefield, but the path of internal energy cultivation. With his master-level strength, it was naturally impossible for him to be matched by the super-level Zhang He.
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, to say that Zhang He was not a strong general seemed to be a bit underestimating him. After all, among the hundreds or even thousands of military generals in that era that lasted for decades and hundreds of years, he was ranked in the top thirty.
However, it is hard to say how brave he is!
Looking at Zhang He's achievements in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, it is actually not good to see!
In the Battle of Guandu, Zhang He fought Zhang Liao in a draw for forty or fifty rounds. Cao Cao was amazed, but Xu Chu could not hold himself back; in the Battle of Rangshan, Zhang He singled out exhausted Zhao Yun, but was repulsed after thirty rounds;
In the battle of Changbanpo, Zhang He held Adou in his arms for ten rounds and exhausted Zhao Yun. Then Zhao Yun fell into a trap and Zhang He was scared away by the "supernatural event"; when the fire burned at Red Cliff, Zhang He was responsible for breaking up the rear. Then he was ordered to block Zhao Yun with Xu Huang, and there was no trace of Zhao Yun again.
In the battle, you may be injured; in the Battle of Tongguan, Zhang He was repulsed by Ma Chao in the 20th round, setting a record for the fastest defeat;
In the Battle of Hanzhong, Zhang He killed Zhang Lu's general Yang Ang in an unknown number of rounds; participated in the consumption of Pang De, Zhang He was the first to attack, and fought for a few rounds before leaving; he invaded Shu, fought Zhang Fei for a total of eighty rounds, and drew again.
He killed Lei Tong, but was defeated by Zhang Fei in a battle of soldiers and strategies;
In the Battle of Hanzhong, Zhang He defeated Meng Da in several rounds and tied with Huang Zhong in twenty rounds; in the Battle of Hanshui, Xu Huang and Zhang He besieged Huang Zhong, and Zhao Yun came to rescue them, but the two did not dare to fight; in the Battle of Jieting
In the battle, Zhang He defeated Wang Ping, who was alone, in dozens of rounds; in the battle of Mumen, Wei Yan and Guan Xing each pretended to defeat Zhang He in ten rounds and shot him dead.
Killing Yang Ang and Lei Tong, defeating Meng Da and Wang Ping, there are a few victories, but most of them are just walk-ons. When encountering real masters, Zhang He's performance is not satisfactory.
Coupled with personality factors, he is not as daring and courageous as Zhang Liao and Xu Huang on the battlefield. Several people who were originally at roughly the same stage have now been left behind by Zhang He.
Of the remaining two, Zhang Liao is now at the heaven level, and even though Xu Huang is just a little bit behind, he has reached the peak of the super level.
On the other hand, Zhang He, although he is a mid-to-upper choice among the super first-class players, is still far away from the heaven level.
Wang Li and Zhang He teamed up to fight Xiao Ruofeng. After eighty rounds, both sides retreated.
This battle at least gave Zhang He a guess about Xiao Ruofeng's character. Various aspects such as martial arts, fighting style, and personality are all related to each other even if they are not completely identical.
Just like Yue Fei and Yang Zaixing are both fierce generals, but for a person like Yue Fei, he will never fight like Yang Zaixing, and his military style is similar to his martial arts style.
Just like Zhang He himself, he is known for his flexibility. Unless he is forced to a certain extent, he will not fight with his life on the battlefield.
After a basic understanding, Zhang He started to arrange the siege again.
Such a small town had already lost more than a thousand soldiers and horses without making any progress. After returning, he was punished more or less. If he didn't take down this city, his reputation would be ruined for the rest of his life.
It’s here.
"Xiao Ruofeng, I will give you one last chance. Open the city and surrender immediately. I will spare your life, otherwise tomorrow will be the anniversary of your death." Before an attack on the city, Zhang He made a customary attempt to persuade him to surrender.
Although they suffered some setbacks here, their troops and horses were still nearly ten times that of their opponent.
Therefore, Zhang He still has sufficient confidence at this time.
"Haha, surrender!"
"Who to vote for?" Xiao Ruofeng laughed for a while before speaking righteously.
"Is it possible that you are like you, being a dog to Wang Pengfei, who has no king, no father, no loyalty and no filial piety?"
"I, Xiao Ruofeng, am also a man who has read a lot of poetry and books. Is Anken collaborating with you and other treacherous people?"
For a moment, Zhang He was really speechless!
He was not one of those outsiders who didn't know Wang Yu's true resume. Their lord indeed had nothing to do with the words loyalty and filial piety.
However, Zhang He suddenly realized what was the point of arguing with Xiao Ruofeng?
After figuring this out, Zhang He immediately shouted: "Attack the city."
"Wang Li, Wang Jiulong, you two take turns leading the attack!"
"Even if we have to waste it, we have to waste this city!" Zhang He said with a hint of fierceness in his face.
In this small city, it is impossible to store any defensive equipment. Therefore, the opponent's preparations for defending the city are actually very limited.
And his army came from afar. Although he did not mobilize too many baggage battalions to escort various baggage in such a small city, at least he had more equipment than the opponent.
He is confident and can outlast the opponent!
Furthermore, the two systems of internal strength and external strength do have their own advantages, but why is the system of external strength said to be more suitable for the battlefield? You must know that although these people will be suppressed by the murderous intent on the battlefield, those below heaven and earth will not.
Although those below heavenly beings will not have this problem. However, compared to external martial arts warriors, if they go to the battlefield, they will not only worry about the consumption of physical strength like external martial arts warriors, but also need to worry about the consumption of their own internal energy.
And once their true energy is exhausted, how much stronger can they be than an ordinary person? A few ordinary soldiers can kill a grandmaster-level warrior.
