More than forty years ago, he was recruited to fight for the Yellow Turbans when he was just weak. Later, he served as the shepherd of Han Fu in Jizhou. Han Fu was defeated and returned to Yuan Shao. He defeated Gongsun Zan and became one of the four pillars of Hebei Province. In the battle of Guandu, Yuan Shao did not listen to his advice.
He used light troops to rescue Wuchao, but Cao Cao killed him with supplies. Without supplies, the army of 100,000 people collapsed. He and Gao Lan, who were attacking Cao Cao's camp in Guandu, knew that the situation was over, so they had to surrender to Cao Cao.
He surrendered to Cao Cao. Although Cao Cao valued him very much, he knew very well that the status of a surrendered general was sensitive, so he was cautious, loyal, and did not dare to be careless. After more than ten years of struggle, he finally used his outstanding military skills to win the battle in Cao Cao's camp.
He rose again, and together with Zhang Liao and others, he was known as the Five Sons of Good Generals. More than ten years later, Yu Jin was defeated, Zhang Liao and Le Jin died of illness. Two years ago, Xu Huang, who was most compatible with him, also died. The Five Sons who were once the most powerful generals on the battlefield
He was the only good general left, so he was very lonely.
Counting from the 16th year of Jian'an when he accompanied Emperor Wu to conquer Ma Chao, he has been fighting under this sky for eighteen years. On this land, he has made great achievements and gained the glory he deserves.
General was promoted to general of gangsters. In the 24th year of Jian'an, Xia Houyuan died unexpectedly in battle, and the tens of thousands of Han troops were on the verge of collapse. Sima Guohuai and warlord Du Xi elected him as the commander of the army. He also completed the task outstandingly and settled the army.
In the face of Liu Bei's all-out attack, he persisted until the arrival of Emperor Wu to turn the tide.
For most people, that battle made him truly famous in the Wei Dynasty, and he could stand shoulder to shoulder with Zhang Liao, who defeated Sun Quan's 100,000-strong army in Hefei. In his own view, that battle was the first time in his life that he led tens of thousands of people.
The army fights independently.
So far, that's the only time.
As a surrendered general, before this, he had always served under his command as a partial general, either under Emperor Wu himself, or under the orders of Xia Houyuan, the general who conquered the west, and now he also took orders from the general Cao Zhen and the hussar general Sima Yi.
Xia Houyuan and Cao Zhen were members of the clan, and they were experienced generals on the battlefield. Zhang He had no idea about taking orders from them, but taking orders from Sima Yi made it difficult for him to accept psychologically. The reason why Sima Yi is where he is today is just because of him
He made contributions to Emperor Wen's fight for the throne. What kind of credit is that? It's just some conspiracy and tricks. Until now, although Zhang He was grateful for Emperor Wen's trust, he was quite dissatisfied with some of his actions. Among them, the most
The obvious thing is to let Sima Yi lead the army.
What does he know about using troops? Except for the time when he defeated Zhuge Jin, so far, he has either stalled or failed in using troops several times. What is even more ridiculous is the battle of Fangling. He acted hastily at first and traveled thousands of miles.
He rushed to attack Fengling, and then marched his troops under the fortified city. He was defeated at the hands of a young man who had just entered the official position.
This is simply a big joke.
Such people only serve as dignitaries in the court and talk big words, but when they go to the battlefield to show off their talents, they will do no good to others or themselves.
Taking orders under such a person was the most frustrating thing for him. As a famous general who had been fighting for many years, he finally had to obey orders from such a person. He was very disappointed.
No matter how great your military exploits are, your status is ultimately closely related to your closeness to the powerful. Military exploits are just the icing on the cake.
Zhang He knew that this was not just the Wei Dynasty, but had never been like this throughout the ages. A famous general is a sharp sword. A monarch cannot leave him for a moment, but he dare not be careless for a moment. In ancient times, many famous generals died violently, and among the five good generals, the four who died first
No one has a happy ending, and he believes that the same is true for himself.
The appearance of generals and generals is only a portrayal of some people, such as Cao Zhen, such as... Sima Yi. For a real warrior like him, the appearance of generals and generals can only appear in dreams.
However, Zhang He didn't care. This was not his fate, but the fate of all famous generals. He preferred the battlefield to the intrigues in the court. Only on the battlefield could he find his soul.
He didn't want to die in bed. If he had a choice, he would rather die on the battlefield.
Under this sky, he defeated Ma Chao, Han Sui, Song Jian and many Qiang kings, large and small. Here, he created his own glory.
However, that is far from enough. Today, he will usher in a higher glory.
Because this time, the crisis faced by the Wei Dynasty was more serious than the crisis in Hanzhong ten years ago. The Shu army occupied Guanzhong, and the Wei Dynasty faced the risk of losing half of its country and the country was shaken.
Because this time, he received the full support of General Cao Zhen and led 10,000 elite cavalry to Longyou. He did not need to listen to anyone's orders and shouldered the important mission of saving the Wei Dynasty alone.
This time, he will defeat Zhuge Liang, the powerful minister who rebelled against Shu, drive him out of Longyou, and then march to Guanzhong to defeat the young man who once beat Sima Yi to shame, proving that Sima Yi's failure was not due to the strength of his opponent, but to himself.
of incompetence.
Zhang He's eyes were a little bright.
Zhang Xiong came over and was a little surprised to see his father's eyes solemn and excited. He handed a bowl of wheat rice into Zhang He's hand. "Dad, it's time to eat."
Zhang He took the meal and glanced at the soldiers who were eating: "Have the soldiers started eating?"
Zhang Xiong nodded and said with a smile: "Of course, dad is the last one to get a job."
"This is the foundation of being a general." Zhang He said calmly, wiped his chopsticks with his hands, and ate with big mouthfuls. The bowl of wheat rice was quickly eaten. Zhang Xiong saw it, and his throat felt a little itchy.
Yes, even though he has been in the army for many years, he is still not used to this kind of rough wheat rice. Every time he eats it, he will be careful for fear of scratching his throat. It is something that most people dare not do like his father, who wolfs down wheat rice like this.
.
"Um...does Ah Weng have a strategy to defeat the enemy?" Zhang Xiong looked at the map on the ground and asked tentatively. Although he heard his father tell Tian Fu and others to defeat the enemy within ten days, he knew that
Just boosting morale is not a real strategy to defeat the enemy.
Zhang He put down the bowl and wiped his mouth. His appearance was no different from that of a veteran, but it was very different from how he was described at home. Although Zhang He was a warrior, he had read many books and had contacts with many Confucian scholars.
The one he respected the most was Ji Zun, one of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai. When he was in the military camp, he would often play pots and songs with Confucian scholars, and he did not despise himself as a warrior. It is really rare to see him like this today.
"If you were Zhuge Liang, what strategy would you have when facing me?" Zhang He pointed to the saddle opposite, asked Zhang Xiong to sit down, and was not in a hurry to answer Zhang Xiong's question, but instead asked him what he thought.
Zhang Xiong laughed: "What other strategies are there? Of course, we should escape as soon as possible."
Zhang He looked at him expressionlessly, "According to what you said, if we still need any strategies to defeat the enemy, we can just sit here and wait for them to escape, or rush forward and pursue them in tandem."
Zhang Xiong touched his chin in embarrassment. He knew that he had been rash. This answer was not the answer his father wanted at all. His father was also very dissatisfied with his dismissive attitude. He bent down and looked at the map carefully. After a while,
After a while, he said uncertainly: "Perhaps Zhuge Liang will wait for help and wait for Ma Di to come back?"
"If this is the case, it is not a cause for concern. Ma Su had to travel more than 800 miles to retreat from Yuzhong. Even if he could do five hundred in three days and one thousand in six days like the old general who conquered the west, it would still take five or six
Days of time. Besides, Hao Zhao and the others may catch up. Their troops do not have an advantage and will only make the soldiers exhausted."
"Then..." Zhang Xiong scratched his head: "Does Zhuge Liang want to have 50,000 people under Guang City to fight against our army?"
"Why not?"
"But in this case..." Zhang Xiong asked in confusion: "Fifty thousand infantry does not have an advantage against ten thousand fine cavalry. Moreover, there are more than ten thousand of Guo Huai's troops in Shanggui City behind him.
, isn’t he afraid of being attacked from both sides by our army?”
Zhang He laughed, which made Zhang Xiong puzzled. After a while, he shook his head: "You also heard what Tian Fu said just now. Zhuge Liang's infantry is different from ordinary infantry. His formation is strict.
There are almost no flaws, and his ordnance is very strong. These are all favorable conditions for setting up the formation. If our army attacks by force, the losses will be much higher than usual." He slowly put away his smile and snorted again: "Not to mention.
I am tired from afar, and he is waiting for work. I have no supplies, but he still has a certain amount of reserves. In comparison, he can rest assured and guard for five, six, or seven or eight days. When Ma Su arrives, the army will be strong.
It will recover. But what about our army? Where can we supplement our army?"
Zhang Xiong understands. Just comparing with Zhuge Liang, Zhang Xiong seems to have some advantages, but this advantage is very limited. If we expand our sights further and zoom in to the entire Longyou area, then Zhuge Liang's advantages will be very obvious. Zhuge Liang is defensive.
The soldiers had plenty of physical strength, food reserves, and reinforcements. But after traveling a long distance, the soldiers were tired and without supplies. He was the reinforcements, and there was no other hope. No matter what, Zhuge Liang had the upper hand.
The most important thing is military rations. In order to keep up with the speed, they cannot bring too much food. One month's military rations are already the limit for long-distance marches. Even if they replenish some from An Ding, it is still very limited. In other words, if they can't do it in half a month,
If Zhuge Liang is defeated within the month, they will run out of food.
No matter how many soldiers and horses you have, once you run out of food, you will collapse without a fight.
Therefore, Zhuge Liang can defend, but they cannot defend. They must take the initiative to attack.
Zhang Xiong raised his head and looked at his father's calm face: "Dad, is this why you said you would defeat the enemy within ten days?"
Zhang He nodded slightly: "Yes, this is not only to reassure them and encourage them, but also a fact. If we cannot defeat the enemy within ten days, our army will be defeated."
Zhang Xiong scratched his head in embarrassment: "How can we defeat the enemy in ten days? The losses in a strong attack will be too great. If we lure the enemy, he may not fall into the trap. If he can also guess this, he can stay in the same camp for ten days. We
What can be done to them?"
"That's why I let you guess what they will do." Zhang He said calmly: "You can judge others by yourself and weigh them repeatedly, so that you can have a clear understanding of the situation between the enemy and ourselves, and only then can you find the opponent's flaws. Know your enemy and know yourself. , so that you can fight without danger."
