Chapter 13 Enemy of Wancheng 2
"Qinglong Yanyue Zhan!"
"Hundreds of birds facing the phoenix!"
With a roar, in the middle of the large car in a circle, the two originally entangled figures separated and retreated several steps until they hit the big car.
"Huh?" Zhang Xiu took advantage of this empty space and took a look at the 4,000 Xiliang Iron Horses under his command, who had already fought with the infantry under Guan Yu. Originally, as long as a charge, the Xiliang Iron Knight could defeat these 10,000 people. But now they are all trapped in the chariots and can't form a position. In this way, the greatest advantage of the Xiliang Iron Horse can't be brought into play, and they can only ride on a horse to fight against the infantry.
"Don't fall in love with each other, withdraw quickly!" Zhang Xiu knew at a glance that there was no good chance of winning today, and he repeatedly shouted and ordered his subordinates to withdraw quickly. But at this time, there was a roar from the north, and it was suddenly killed by another man. In this battle, Zhuge Liang asked Guan Yu to hide the ambush in the heavy car, entangled the Xiliang Army and fight with it. At the same time, Zhou Cang led the only 2,000 cavalry to kill from Anzhong County after the battle began, and attacked Zhang Xiu's thousands of cavalry infantry.
"Zhang Xiu looks at the knife!" Guan Yu's roar came from behind him, and Zhang Xiu was forced to turn back and fight again. The two of them have been fighting for more than 70 rounds. Zhang Xiu gradually can't stand Guan Yu's sinking knife and horse, and his arms have begun to be numb. Seeing that Guan Yu's ghost did not disperse, Zhang Xiu could only grit his teeth and persist, looking forward to a miracle.
"General, let's go!" At this time, Hu Che'er blocked Guan Yu's move from the front of the flank. Zhang Xiu took time to jump out of the circle. Seeing that Hu Che'er's moves were all life-threatening moves, he attacked Guan Yu desperately. Zhang Xiu also knew that he was also an opportunity to fight for his life for himself. He gritted his teeth and quickly turned the horse's head and retreated to the north.
"Withdraw quickly!" Zhang Xiu packed up the remnants of the soldiers and hurried to Wancheng. Guan Yu fought for more than a dozen rounds over there, and finally cut Hu Che'er under the horse with a knife. Only then did he free his hands to command the battle. The battle did not end until the sunset.
"Junhou, the last general is incompetent, and that embroidery still ran away with hundreds of horses!" Zhou Cang stepped forward with a ashamed face. Guan Yu looked at the messy battlefield and didn't say anything for a long time. At this time, he came to tell Guan Yu that the three thousand cavalry of the Xiliang Army escaped about seven or eight hundred cavalry, and the remaining two thousand people were captured, and only more than 400 were captured, and the rest were all killed. On the contrary, the thousand infantry were almost completely destroyed under the attack of two people and horses. However, Guan Yu's own losses were even more heavy, with more than 4,000 casualties.
"The Xiliang Army is indeed the elite of the world. In this way, our army has such great casualties!" Guan Yu also sighed and couldn't help recalling the past against Dong Zhuo. Looking at the body of Hu Che'er on the ground, Guan Yu sighed and said, "This man is loyal to protect the Lord. Let's bury him alive!" Then the whole army was ordered to go north to Wancheng.
"Vice General Li, why are you here?" When he ran more than 30 miles away from Wancheng, Zhang Xiu saw that the oncoming was Vice General Li, who stayed in Wancheng Town, and there were some defeated generals behind him, and his heart suddenly cooled down.
As soon as Vice General Li saw Zhang Xiu, he suddenly cried and said, "General, the last general is incompetent. At the right time, more than a hundred soldiers brought more than a dozen trucks of food and fodder to the city, saying that it was the food and fodder looted by the general. When the last general saw that they were few, he ordered to open the gate and let them in. I didn't expect that the car was full of soldiers. There were hundreds of people. As soon as I entered the city, I jumped out of the car and fought with our people. Our army failed to expel them from the city for a while, and was killed by Liao Hua, who followed them. There were many people, and the brothers fought in a scuffle, but they still lost the city!"
"What? Is it a grain cart again? Zhang Xiu only felt dizzy when she heard the words, and almost fell down immediately. Looking at the total of more than 1,000 people around him, Zhang Xiu knew that Wancheng could not be taken back. He gritted his teeth and said, "Withdraw, withdraw to General Xu Huang of Xiangcheng!" After saying that, he turned the horse's head and withdrew to the east, and the rest of the soldiers hurriedly followed.
"Haha, Kong Ming and Yuan Jian have made great achievements in winning Wancheng this time! When I report to the eldest brother, there will be a reward!" In the mansion of the governor of Wancheng, Guan Yu sat on the main seat with high spirits. Zhuge Liang and Liao Hua repeatedly said that they did not dare to be.
"Junhou, Wancheng is a heavy land. Now that it has been taken down, the army should be stationed in case of Cao Yao." Zhuge Liang waited for everyone to be a little excited and hurriedly said.
"It makes sense. I have sent someone to tell the eldest brother to send troops quickly." Guan Yu nodded. Speaking of which, this dispatch of troops is indeed a little unconsidered. Originally, it was only planned to attack Xiangyang Ceying the other two people, but now it is inevitable that the troops are a little overstretched after attacking Wancheng. At present, Guan Yu left 5,000 people and Liao Hua to guard Wancheng. He led the remaining more than 10,000 people south to join Li Yan and Chen Wu and prepare to march into Xiangyang.
"See General Zhao!" Under the public security city, Wang Fu led all the officials of the public security to go out to meet Zhao Feng who had just arrived here. As Zhao Feng expected, Wang Fu was not the best friend of Cai Mao and Kuai Yue. He belonged to the "pro-Xu faction" of Jingzhou. Seeing that the army came here, Wenpin, the old man from Jingzhou appeared and surrendered.
"General Wang, you don't need to be polite!" Zhao Feng quickly picked up Wang Fu. In history, this man was also a person who would rather die than surrender. Finally, he died in Maicheng with Zhou Cang. After the army entered the public security, Wang Fu told Zhao Feng that Jiangling was only more than 50 miles away from here. At present, Kuai Yue personally sat down Jiangling. There were no less than tens of thousands of defenders in the city, and there was enough food and fodder. It was extremely difficult to break through the city.
"Kai Yue guards Jiangling, and Cai Mao guards Xiangyang. These two places are extremely critical. The city walls are high and dangerous, and the two thieves guard them in person. Even if we take down all the other counties, the two of them can move from time to time to wait for Cao's reinforcements. Zhao Feng looked at the map and couldn't help sighing. Jiangling City is the capital of Jingxiang. The city wall is tall, steep and strong, no less than the current Wu County. Liubiao and Kou Yue have been operating here for many years, and it is even easier to defend and difficult to attack.
Not to mention Xiangyang, there are countless classic wars fought here in history, but there are few times that have not been known for several years. It's really sad to take Xiangyang as soon as possible.
"Except it is!" Wen Ping also sighed when he looked at the map. At this time, after visiting the horse, Guan Yu and Zhuge Liang's army passed through the confusion and turned north to capture Wancheng. At the same time, Li Tong led 20,000 troops to help in the battle. Well, it's impossible for Cao to rescue Jing Xiang now. The three armies were ordered. After two days, the soldiers sent Jiangling to converge with Wenyuan's partial division. Let's slowly accompany Dudu Cai and don't drive and play!" This result finally relieved Zhao Feng, which meant that he could besiege Jiangling and Xiangyang even if he was in trouble.
It's just that the current situation is not very optimistic. Liu Pan was stuck in Yidu and couldn't go north at a step. After Guan Yu captured Wancheng, he converged Li Tong's followers, and it was also a little difficult to face Xiangyang. Except for a few counties under the guards, there are only more than 20,000 people who converge with Zhang Liao. Relying on this manpower, let alone capture Jiangling, it is difficult to do even besiege the city.
"Liu Pan, Liu Pan, please do it!" Zhao Feng was also annoyed when he heard that Liu Pan was still messed up by Huo Jun. This time, I fought against Cai Mao and Kai Yue. Anyway, I just helped. I didn't expect that now the assist will become the main attack.
"Why don't you avoid the truth? Please ask General Guan and others not to attack Xiangyang first, but instead to attack Zhangling?" At this time, Wen Ping looked at the map and suddenly said. Zhao Feng looked at it. Although Zhangling is a county, the area is not small, almost half of the size of Yuzhou. Historically, after occupying this place, Liu Bei once set up three counties together with Zhangling and a part of Hanzhong: Shangyong, Xincheng and Weixing. The current Zhangling County mainly includes Nanxiang, Xincheng and Shangyong. At this time, Wei Xing was still under the rule of Zhang Lu in Hanzhong.
Judging from the map, if Guan Yu's army does not attack Xiangyang and turns to Zhangling, then after pacing Zhangling, it can go south and attack Yidu County with Liu Pan. Once you take Yidu, you can surround Cai Mao's Xiangyang and Kuai Yue's Jiangling at the core. Even if they can't be beaten for a while, consumption can consume them to death.
"It's like swallowing a hard steamed bun. If you can't chew it for a while, you can swallow it in your stomach and slowly digest it!" Zhao Feng finally came up with the name, and Wenpin's proposal was also not bad. At present, he sent someone to send a letter to Guan Yu and Zhuge Liang in the north to put forward his own suggestions. It is better to let them handle it by themselves. He can't command the two uncles. It's just that the development of things later was far beyond the expectations of the three of them.
After two days, Zhao Feng's army sent to Jiangling and joined Zhang Liao's partial division. General, Huarong Xiaoxian has surrendered, and I left Zhang Nan to garrison with a thousand people. After the meeting, Zhang Liao said first.
"Wen Yuan, thank you for your hard work!" Zhao Feng replied with a smile, and then ordered people to camp 20 miles south of Jiangling City to prepare for the enemy.
Besides, when Kuai Yue in Jiangling City learned that Zhao Feng's army had arrived here, he was not very flustered. How many people are there in Zhao Feng? Kui Yue asked the detective horse who was reporting.
"There are only more than 20,000 people, and Zhao Feng camped 20 miles south of the city." Tan Ma replied.
"More than 20,000 people? He can't break my city at this point. Kwakui Yue snorted. Huang, the son of Huangzu, shot beside him. When he heard the words, he immediately said, "Lord Kui, since Zhao Feng has few people, why don't you break through this journey first and then fight against Guan Yu?"
"Huh?" Kui Yue was also moved when he heard the words. Looking at the people under the account, Kui Yue said slowly, "I don't know which general is willing to fight against Zhao Feng?"
"Young general Yang Ling is willing to go!" A general hurried out of the line, but it was Yang Ling, the captain of the military academy. Kuai Yue ordered Yang Ling and Huang She to lead 10,000 troops to challenge Zhao Feng's army.
At the same time, Zhuge Liang and Guan Yu, who had just led their troops south to Fancheng, also received a biography from Zhao Feng. Unexpectedly, Liu Pan was so bad that he couldn't attack Yidu County. Bo Tao suggested that I go down to Zhangling first, and then attack in two ways to break through Yidu. Guan Yu read the letter and said.
"General Zhao's words are reasonable!" Zhuge Liang was silent for a long time and said such a sentence.
"Kong Ming?" Guan Yu saw that Zhuge Liang was a little depressed, and he couldn't help but wonder.
"Alas!" Zhuge Liang sighed softly, and then said, "Zhang Ling Taishou Kuai Qi is the brother of Cai Mao and Liang's brother-in-law!"
