Chapter 416: Seek Opportunities to Stabilize the Military(1/2)
"Reported, the South Gate was broken by the enemy."
The quarter of an hour agreed upon by Liao Hua and Zhang He has not yet arrived.
Xu Huang first received the news that the South Gate was broken.
It was like a bolt from the blue, exploded in Xu Huang's ears.
He transferred most of the troops from the South Gate to the West Gate to support Zhang Ji.
The West Gate has not yet been lost, but the South Gate has been broken first.
Xu You gathered 40,000 troops at Ximen. Xu Huang really didn't expect that this was also a cover.
The one who really wants to attack is the South Gate.
There were originally 10,000 defenders in the South Gate, but after being drawn by Xu Huang, there were only one thousand people left.
Xu You led the army to attack Ximen, but this was just to attract Xu Huang's attention.
From the beginning to the end, Xu You did not fully believe in Liao Hua.
Even if the east gate is opened, the fight is very fierce.
Even Zhang He, who led his troops into the city, was at a disadvantage in all directions and the situation was critical.
Xu You did not add one soldier to the east gate either.
The East Gate is not the target of Xu You and Zhang He's focus on attacking.
It's just used to involve Xu Huang's main force.
Even if he was trapped, Xu You would not have a chance.
As for the current situation, it is hard to say whether Zhang He was trapped or Xu Huang was trapped.
Or both sides have fallen into the trap.
It depends on who commands better on the spot and who makes the judgment of the battle situation more accurately.
See who can seize the best opportunity.
No one is bound to win.
Xu You's attack on the South Gate was not the plan that he had made before with Zhang He.
But when he attacked Ximen, he suddenly had the idea.
Then Xu You quietly divided five thousand people.
In the dark night, Xu You didn't know how many defenders Xu Huang arranged at the South Gate, he just wanted to try it.
But I didn't expect that I actually built the South Gate.
Xu Huang's troops stayed at the north gate of the south gate were too few and very empty, and only two lieutenants with average strength were in charge.
After seeing that there were people siege the city under the city, and the number of people was obviously higher than that of them, he just resisted it symbolically and was defeated.
As soon as the south gate was broken, Xu You immediately drew 10,000 people from the west gate and rushed into the city from the south gate.
After these 10,000 soldiers entered the city, they added the previous five thousand people and were divided into two routes, one route facing east, and rushed towards Xu Huang.
Heading westward, preparing to cooperate from the inside, the soldiers outside the west gate.
As Xu You led his men into the city, the situation began to become unfavorable to Xu Huang.
He hasn't destroyed Zhang He yet.
When Yuan's army, who had come in from the south gate, attacked the rear of Xu Huang's army, Zhang He was cooperating from the other side.
The defeat may be the tens of thousands of troops in Xu Huang's hands.
Zhang He still has more than 7,000 people in his hands.
"Brothers, the South Gate has been broken, we are going to win." Zhang He also received the news.
He shouted out loud.
Zhang He's voice fell.
The remaining seven thousand people were already shaken in their hearts, but now when they heard what Zhang He said, they were filled with confidence again.
As long as you persist for a while, they will win.
Not only will they not die, they will gain credit.
Having already harvested a head, I was thinking about how much reward I could get after I went back this time.
There is nothing we have gained, and the fighting spirit is stronger. They need a head to ensure their contributions in exchange for rewards.
One by one, they all started to fight for their own good, just to kill an enemy.
Seven thousand people, the combat power that burst out at this moment was stronger than the 10,000 people at the beginning.
With Zhang He's fighting spirit high, the morale of the Yellow Turban Army led by Xu Huang began to decline and was completely suppressed by Zhang He.
These Yellow Turban Army are still not mature enough.
Xu Huang trained them for too short.
Feeling the momentum of the enemy, they didn't have the courage to resist.
They were suppressed immediately. They felt panic in their hearts, always worried that enemies would suddenly come to kill behind them.
Xu Huang also felt the emotional changes of these Yellow Turban Army.
Let’s not talk about how long it will take for the army led by Xu You to arrive.
With the current morale of the Yellow Turban Army, even if Xu You's troops did not come, he might be defeated by Zhang He.
It's night now, not as good as daytime.
Ordinary soldiers had no idea of the real situation of the battle.
When a person starts to be afraid, panic will soon spread to everyone.
"The south gate has not been broken, so there is no need to worry." Xu Huang shouted.
His voice was louder than Zhang He.
"There are only five thousand people. Brothers, kill me. Whether you can marry a wife depends on how many heads can be cut tonight."
The South Gate has been broken, but Xu Huang cannot tell the news about the Yellow Turban Army.
At the same time, Xu Huang said that Zhang He's troops were a little smaller.
"The general has an order. Those who kill Zhang He will be rewarded with a thousand gold medals and will be promoted to General of the Central Army."
Xu Huang's voice alone could not be heard from all the Yellow Turban Army.
But the personal guards who were following him were already shouting loudly.
At this moment, the momentum of the Yellow Turban Army that had just been suppressed began to rise again.
The sound went higher and higher, gradually overwhelming the voice of Zhang Hejun.
The number of the Yellow Turban Army is much higher than that of Zhang He.
The sounds that erupt now are stronger than Zhang He's army.
The Yellow Turban Army had just felt panic in their hearts, and gradually calmed down under the roar.
The fear in my heart has been dispelled.
All that remains is burning fighting spirit.
They feel ashamed of the fear they have just developed.
The enemy has only 5,000 people, why are they afraid?
Their numbers are far more than surplus enemies.
The roar is still there.
One by one, the Yellow Turban Army continued to rush towards the enemy.
Whether it is Zhang He or Xu Huang, they are good at mobilizing the morale of the army.
Although the momentum of the Yellow Turban Army once again surpassed Zhang He's army.
But Zhang He's soldiers were not discouraged.
They believed Zhang He's words.
They believed that the South Gate had been broken and reinforcements would come soon.
They believe that they will win and the Yellow Turban Army will lose.
Even though the sound was not as big as the Yellow Turban Army, no one retreated.
Everyone is trying their best.
"Zhang He, my people can't hold on." This time, Liao Hua rushed directly to Zhang He.
"A quarter of an hour, it hasn't arrived yet, let your people hold on for a while." Zhang He said.
To be continued...
