Chapter 331 The Siege of the City
After cleaning the battlefield, Jia Rong's eyes showed a pensive look. After a short confrontation, three crossbows were broken. There were countless injured soldiers. If they couldn't be able to change, they would not keep the Tiger Prison Pass.
At this time, Jia Rong thought of the combination of steps and horses in the battle of Pingxiang. There were 100,000 allies, generals were like clouds, counselors were like rain, and the means to attack the city must be endless. Although Pingxiang's defense battle was won, there were many soldiers injured by his own cavalry.
The wall of Huaoguan is about three feet thick, which can accommodate two horses to drive side by side. For the sake of safety, Jia Rong decided to kill the enemy on a single horse. However, there are many strategices in the coalition forces. This method cannot be used many times, otherwise Huaoguan may be broken because of his little cleverness.
The well of the coalition was damaged, and the city was not attacked for three consecutive days. Taking advantage of this good opportunity, Jia Rong strengthened the Hu prison again.
These three days exhausted the 60 medical team sent by Hua Yu and kept running in the camp. For example, Hua Yu's eldest disciple had not closed his eyes for three days and nights in a row. There were too many injured soldiers, and 60 people took three days of treatment to deal with all the wounded soldiers.
The medical team of 60 people only did the simplest to bandage the wound and pulled out the arrow of the arrow soldier, which made Jia Rong get a lot of military heart. It is rare for the main general to care so much about the soldiers. Soldiers also know how to repay kindness. In the era when soldiers are as low as dogs, a small care is enough to make the big-headed soldier remember for a lifetime. .
In order to appease the army, Jia Rong walked between the barracks and visited the injured soldiers. Zhao Yun and Lv Bu never left him. Among these soldiers, there were many of the original Bingzhou army surrendering troops. If they had bad intentions and did something extreme, it would be a great blow to the soldiers guarding the customs.
The soldiers who are loyal to Ding Yuan are only a very small part. The concept of soldiers is very simple. They are willing to work for whoever is good to them. The injured soldiers will not forget that it is Jia Rong who brought Lang Zhong to treat them, and they will not forget that Jia Rong came to visit them again and again, compared with the generals of the headquarters. The direction of the army's heart gradually leaned on the Western Liang Army.
Some of the injured soldiers may no longer be able to go to the battlefield, and can only contribute silently in the rear. Whether it is Dong Jun's soldiers or Xiliang's army, Jia Rong promises to find them a suitable job after victory, so that the heroes on the battlefield will not worry about life.
Many injured soldiers cried when they heard the word 'battlefield hero'. They always thought that the word hero was owned by a big man. When the word came out of Jia Rong's mouth, it aroused the soldier's deep inferiority and yearning.
"Hua Li, thank you for your hard work during this period." Jia Rong patted Hua Li on the shoulder and said.
Hua Li hurriedly leaned over and said, "Thank you for your concern, General. These are what villains should do."
During this period, Jia Rong admired Hua Yu, a nominal great disciple. It is said that this person's surname was Liu. After he learned from Hua Yu, he followed the surname Hua and did things more secularly than Hua Yu.
Hao Meng, Cao and other generals thought that Jia Rong was just pretentious and pretended to comfort the injured soldiers. Only Zhang Liao looked thoughtful after seeing what Jia Rong had done, and then led the soldiers to console the soldiers under his command. How to make the soldiers sincerely work for you on the battlefield, just by relying on a few words of righteousness. The words are difficult to do, otherwise there will be no deserters.
"There are not many soldiers but in the essence". The biggest reason why the Xiliang Army can repeatedly reverse the situation under disadvantages and defeat powerful opponents is that the army is attached to the heart and the soldiers are single-minded. Only in this way can a team not fall apart because of a small setback.
Among the generals, there are only a few who can really do this step with Jia Rong, including the generals of the Xiliang Army. Although the feelings between the generals and soldiers are very good, there is always some resistance to the Northern and Southern Army and the Bingzhou Army that joined later. Jia Rong's existence is to connect the hearts of all the soldiers tightly together.
Compared with the good treatment of the soldiers in the customs, the allied soldiers outside the customs are much worse. The 30,000 siege soldiers finally retreated to the battalion. Nine out of ten were injured, and the wounds of the soldiers poured by hot oil quickly ulcerated. Every day, the soldiers who closed the tiger prison at night could hear one desolate howls from the allied battalion.
The soldiers on the night patrol were secretly happy. At least they were injured and had treatment. Jia Rong's promise to some soldiers had already spread among the soldiers in Guannei. Many Bingzhou soldiers who defected to Dong Jun began to look for fellow villagers in the Xiliang Army to wait for the opportunity to change.
Since he was attached to Dong Zhuo, Zhang Liao has been highly valued, comparable to the status of the old generals Niu Fu, Fan Chou and others in Dong Jun.
Zhang Liao gathered Dong Jun's generals to discuss Jia Rong's condolences to the soldiers for nearly an hour. His ** nature is much better than Niu Fu and others.
During the period of Hu'ao Pass, the strength of the Xiliang Army was more than that of the Dong army, but now Zhang Liao and others are asked to mobilize soldiers. I'm afraid that Jia Rong will be more likely to obey his orders. Invisibly, the hearts of all the soldiers have been condensed on Jia Rong. This situation has to be ignored by these generals. In time, the whole team only After listening to Jia Rong's orders, they became the commander of the light pole.
Just like the tiger prison closed, Jia Rong can let the soldiers obey with one order, and there is no need for too many words.
After realizing the seriousness of the matter, Zhang Liao wrote to Dong Zhuo on the other hand and summoned the generals in the army to discuss countermeasures.
"General Zhang's words are too exaggerated. Jia Rong's little tricks, hum, also buy the military heart. If it weren't for the army of 100,000 princes concerned about the outside world, our Bingzhou army could take his life." Hao Meng said disdainfully.
Zhang Liao shouted, "Don't talk nonsense. This is the military camp. Jia Rong learned this. I'm afraid we will be in danger."
Hao Meng still disapproves. Among the generals of the Bingzhou army, Zhang Liao is the best one among all. He is deeply valued by Dong Zhuo. Hao Meng has such a trace of resistance to him. He can't see that others can be more valued than him. Usually, Zhang Liao's orders are also contrary.
In terms of martial arts, the two Hao Meng are not Zhang Liao's opponents, and Hao Meng can't compare with Zhang Liao in terms of strategy. This time, Dong Zhuo entrusted the important task to Zhang Liao. Everything is big and small, and it can only be implemented with Zhang Liao's consent. Since then, Hao Meng's good impression of Zhang Liao has dropped to the lowest point in an instant.
Niu Fu nodded and said, "General Zhang's words are reasonable. Jia Rong once left under the Taishi account. In just a few years, he has become the current level, and the combat strength of the Xiliang Army has been praised many times even by the Taishi." Thinking of the stamen and horseshoe of the Xiliang Army, Niu Fu's awe of Jia Rong has deepened a lot. The existence of the staves allows the cavalry to better adapt to the battlefield.
"It's just a traitorous general." Cao sex snorted coldly.
"No nonsense!" Niu Fu and Fan shouted in unison.
Jia Rong was once known as the first fierce general of Dong Zhuo's army. In the army, whether it is martial arts or strategy, he has won the heart of the army. Although he has been away for a long time, if this word spreads, it will definitely set off waves. Although Dong Jun and Xi Liang's army are usually fighting, the two armies are also broken.
Niu Fu and Fan Chou are all old people in the army. Among them, Niu Fu is Dong Zhuo's son-in-law. Hao Meng is very important in front of Dong Zhuo, but he does not dare to be presumptuous and repeatedly promises.
"Mr. Li, what do you think?" Niu Fu turned his eyes to Li Su.
Since he came to Hu prison, Li Su has been silent. When he rarely expressed his opinions, Niu Fu and Fan Chou, who are familiar with his personality, dare not underestimate him. People who can be valued by Dong Zhuo will not be simple people.
Li Su stroked his goatee and said with a smile, "Jia Rong, he is just a rebel. Besides, there are General Zhang and General Niu and others in the Hu Prison. There will be no loss. The current thing is to repel the Kanto princes. Jia Rong will not do anything stupid."
"If the princes attack again, let the soldiers protect their lives."
What Li Su said was very obscure, but which of the generals on the scene did not roll down from the battlefield. Naturally, he understood the meaning of the words and nodded in agreement.
In the city of Yueyang, after reading the news reported by various soldiers and horses, Dong Zhuo showed a look of meditation. The place where the princes gathered the most troops was the Hu Prison Pass, so Dong Zhuo sent more than 10,000 troops at one time to assist Jia Rong to guard the Pass.
More importantly, Meng Jinguan and Xiaopingjin are also important. If these two are lost, the princes can also be soldiers under the city. When Luyang is besieged, it means the demise of Dong Zhuo. Now Pingjin and Mengjin have frequent wars, and the coalition's offensive is very fierce.
"Son-in-law, what do you think of what happened in the prison?" Dong Zhuo turned his eyes to Li Ru.
Recently, Li Ru's status in the army has plummeted, and Li Su has climbed steadily. Dong Zhuo reused Li Su. In addition, there are too many generals and soldiers of the Bingzhou Army and the North and South armies newly merged into Dong Zhuo's army, which is not as afraid of Li Ru as the former Dong Jun generals.
On the other hand, although Li Ru is not valued, he still follows the rules. He usually does things without leaking water and does not give people a handle. Unless Dong Zhuo is called for important things, he is basically in the house, not like Li Su. After being entrusted with the important task, he is afraid that the whole people in Luyang will not know. What he must do every day is to walk around the city of Luoyang and give People feel that they are invincible all at once.
The situation in Luoyang is critical. The first thing Dong Zhuo thought of was not Li Su but Li Ru. In his heart, Li Ru was the think tank in the army, otherwise Li Su would not have been sent to the tiger prison.
Li Ru analyzed the situation of the Hu Prison Pass and Dong Zhuo in detail, and finally sighed, "If the Tiger Prison Pass can be guarded, I'm afraid that the soldiers in the Pass also belong to Jia Rong."
Dong Zhuo was shocked and said, "What does the good son-in-law mean?"
Li Ru shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Jia Rong's means of buying people's hearts are overwhelming. Hua Xiong and General Guo Yan are not willing to work for the Xiliang Army now. How many soldiers of our army will obey the order of the Lord at the beginning?"
"Wenyou teaches me." Dong Zhuo also panicked. There were more than 15,000 soldiers and soldiers in the Hu Prison Pass. If these people turned against each other, it would have a great impact on Dong Zhuo's position in Luyang.
