Chapter 127: Head-on attack

After Wu Yuan left, Zhu Can drank tea for a while, and was about to go to the back hall to find his new concubine when he saw Zhu Feng'er walking in hurriedly. As soon as they met, Zhu Feng'er said angrily: "Father, I heard that you are going to

Is it true that you sent troops to attack the King of Chu of Tang Dynasty?" Zhu Can glanced at his daughter and said angrily: "It's not because you let the King of Chu of Li Tang go, you caused a lot of trouble for me.

He has captured my city, so naturally I will send troops to take it back!"

"Father," Zhu Feng'er raised her voice an octave, "Do you have to be an enemy of the Tang Dynasty?"

When Zhu Can heard this, he became angry and glared: "It's not that I want to be their enemy, it's them that are my enemy! Li Tang's envoys insulted me in public, and they seized my territory and wiped out my five thousand troops.

, how can you not avenge this revenge? If you are my daughter, don’t speak for them in the future, otherwise, don’t blame me for denying you as my daughter!..."

Li Zhiyun invented the bobbin cart, which diverted river water to irrigate the fertile fields, and the wheat seedlings in the fields grew well. On this day, Li Zhiyun, Zhang Zheng, and Cai Hu were patrolling the fields. Scarface came over in a hurry, clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, the last general

The scouts sent to Jutan came back to report that Zhu Can had sent his general Wu Yuan with 30,000 troops to attack us!"

Oh? When Li Zhiyun heard this, his face became solemn. He began to think quickly in his mind about how to deal with the enemy. The enemy had 30,000 troops, the new army only had 3,000, and the Self-Defense Army only had 5,000. The enemy was numerous.

As a widow, we should stick to the city according to common sense. Due to the firepower superiority of the new army, the enemy army will most likely not be able to break through the city, but they can destroy the crops outside the city. If so, in winter, the soldiers and civilians in the city will starve. Therefore, we should stick to the city.

The city plan was quickly rejected by Li Zhiyun.

Since we can't take a defensive position, we can only take the initiative to attack and give the enemy a head-on blow. Thinking of this, Li Zhiyun said loudly: "Wang Baoqiang, immediately gather the team, set off immediately, and go to meet the enemy!"

"Yes!" Scarface said loudly.

Li Zhiyun left the self-defense army to guard the Champion City and set off with three thousand new troops. The team walked for a day and set up camp after dark. After breakfast the next day, the army was about to move out again. Just as Li Zhiyun was about to walk out of the tent, a general came in

, cupping his fists and saying: "Your Majesty."

Li Zhiyun took a look and saw that it was Zhang Da. During the Battle of Hedong, Li Zhiyun rescued Zhang Da from the executioner's ghost-headed sword at the gate of Jinyang. Zhang Da was good at leading troops in battles and was a rare general. Li Zhiyun

It was planned to make him the standard commander, but the third regiment of the new army had not yet been formed, so he had to be forced to be a battalion commander first. After Li Zhiyun returned the courtesy, he said: "General Zhang, are you okay?"

"Your Majesty, Wu Yuan's army is still far away from the Champion City, and it must be unprepared. The general is willing to lead a death squad, sneak into the enemy camp, and act on the spot!"

Li Zhiyun listened, thought for a moment, nodded and said: "Okay. General Zhang, I would like to give you four words, be brave and careful. You go first, I will lead the army and will arrive soon!"

"yes!"

After Zhang Da returned to the camp, he handed over the team to the command of his deputy general. He selected more than 20 brave soldiers and put them on the enemy's armor captured in Champion City. In order to be light-armed, they did not bring firecrackers, and each of them only carried

He grabbed a waist knife, hid a few grenades on his body, and set off.

Everyone walked quickly for a day, and at dusk, they arrived at a place more than ten miles away from the enemy camp. Zhang Da found that many enemy soldiers were walking towards the camp from all directions, carrying looted grain and vegetables on their shoulders.

Zhang Da had an idea and led everyone to a nearby market town. When the stall owners on the street saw a group of "suffering troops" coming, they quickly packed up their loads and were about to run away. Zhang Da ran a few steps and stopped several vendors, saying

: "Aren't you selling something? I bought it!" After saying that, he took out a piece of silver and said, "Is ten taels of silver enough?" The vendor was overjoyed when he saw it and said quickly: "Enough! Enough!"

Zhang Da asked the soldiers to carry grain and vegetables on their backs, and when passing by a house, he bought a set of cooking utensils. When everyone came to the gate of the enemy camp, they saw enemy soldiers in groups of three and five, carrying them with their shoulders and hands.

A steady stream of people walked towards the camp. The soldiers standing guard at the gate did not check and allowed everyone to enter as they pleased.

Everyone entered the camp smoothly and moved around freely to explore the situation of the enemy camp. Zhang Da found that the enemy camp was divided into three parts: left, middle and right. The left army and the middle army were the main forces of the army, and the right army was the supply and supplies.

As night fell, they picked an open space, sat down, lit up a bonfire, and started cooking pots. There were many enemy soldiers sitting around piles of bonfires, eating the plundered food, talking, laughing, and laughing.

Zhang Da walked to a nearby bonfire, sat down next to a soldier, nudged him with his elbow, and said: "Brother, please ask, what is the code for the camp tonight?" The soldier glanced at him.

, asked: "Your commander didn't tell you?" Zhang Da smiled and said: "We just returned to the camp and haven't seen the commander yet." The soldier nodded and said: "Well, I tell you, you can

Remember, tonight’s code is to serve tea.” Zhang Da thanked him, stood up and returned to his group.

After eating, Zhang Da led everyone to the Chinese army camp. As soon as they entered the camp, they met a group of patrolling soldiers. The leading officer shouted: "Password!" Zhang Da quickly replied:

"Tea!" The officer came over, illuminated them with the torch in his hand, and said, "Where are you going?"

"We are going back to camp."

"Okay, go back quickly and don't run around!"

Zhang Da agreed and continued walking forward with his men. After walking for a while, they saw a large tent appearing in front of them. There were hundreds of soldiers sitting around the tent around the campfire. Zhang Da estimated that this was the enemy's Chinese army.

Big tent. He called a close confidant to him and whispered: "Take a few people to the back of the tent to open fire!" The confidant nodded and walked away with a few people.

Zhang Da waited for a while and heard an explosion from behind the tent. The soldiers sitting around the campfire stood up and looked over there. Zhang Da gave an order, and everyone pulled out their swords and rushed towards the enemy, slicing melons and chopping them.

There was a chaotic killing spree, killing more than a hundred enemies in an instant.

There was a mess in front of the enemy's Chinese army tent. An enemy general ran out of the tent and looked around. He was surrounded by five or six soldiers. Zhang Da estimated that it was Wu Yuan, and he wanted to lead people to charge.

He went to kill Wu Yuan, but it was too late. Many enemy soldiers saw that the fighting was going on here and rushed over to reinforce them. More and more enemies gathered. Zhang Da had no choice but to take out a grenade, pull off the fuse, and move toward the enemy general.

Throw it over. With a huge explosion, the enemy general fell to the ground.

Seeing that the enemy's general had been killed, Zhang Da immediately ordered his men to retreat. Everyone fought and retreated, and they ran for fifty or sixty feet when they were suddenly blocked by a group of enemy soldiers, with about a hundred people in total. Zhang Da

Da shouted: "Throw the grenade!" Everyone took out the grenade and threw it to the opposite side, causing the enemy soldiers to fall over and scream...

When Li Zhiyun arrived with the new army, the enemy camp was already in chaos. It was too late to set up cannons, so he asked Scarface to order an immediate attack. Scarface asked the bugler to blow the charge horn, and the new army soldiers carried the fire

Guns rushed into the enemy camp, dense bullets flew everywhere, and the enemies fell to the ground one after another.

The enemy troops were unable to withstand the ferocious attack of the new army. They were running around, trampling on each other, completely losing their command, and unable to resist. By daybreak, except for a small number of enemies who had escaped, most of them had been wiped out.

The new army captured a large number of weapons and other military supplies, and everyone was in high spirits. The team beat the victory gongs and drums, and the squadron made a triumphant return.

Wu Yuan was not killed, but was seriously injured. He was carried by several soldiers and fled the battlefield and returned to Jutan City. Wu Yuan was sent home to lie on the bed to recuperate, and Zhu Can came to visit him.

Yuan took the other person's hand and said with tears and snot in his nose: "Brother, I lost 30,000 troops, I'm sorry for you!"

Zhu Can comforted him and said, "Brother, I don't blame you. It's because I underestimated the enemy. I didn't expect that King Chu of Li Tang was young but brave and resourceful. He was even harder to deal with than his brother Li Shimin!"

Yuan wiped away the tears on his face and said: "Brother, do you really not blame me?" Zhu Can nodded and said: "Brother, victory or defeat is a common thing in military affairs. Don't think too much about it. It's important to take good care of your injuries! ...

"

Wu Yuan lay in bed for more than half a month before he could get out of bed and move around.

Nanyang, about a hundred miles away from Jutan, is the hometown of the Four Sages and the land of Wolong. Celebrities such as Zhang Zhongjing, Zhang Heng, Fan Li, and Zhuge Liang were born here. The streets of Nanyang City are prosperous and crowded, with shops on both sides of the street and cars and horses on the road.

There is a steady flow of people.

This morning, a mother and daughter were walking among the bustling pedestrians. The lady had a beautiful face and raven hair, and her skin was as radiant as snow. The daughter was about thirteen or fourteen years old, with picturesque features and innocent beauty. The mother and daughter were walking in the crowd.

The women were obviously the wife and young lady of a wealthy family. Not only were they well-dressed, but they were also followed by two servants wearing Gebu shirts and turbans.

The world is unstable, and the mother and daughter usually stay at home. Today they finally took the opportunity to go shopping. Their eyes were overwhelmed and everything they saw felt new. They walked around in front of each stall, picking and bargaining.

At this time, a group of soldiers walked over from the opposite side. The officer walking at the front saw the mother and daughter who were shopping. His eyes lit up and he immediately pointed with his hand and said: "These two ladies are good, let me take them away!"

As soon as he finished speaking, several soldiers rushed up, grabbed the mother and daughter's arms, and dragged them to the carriage behind them. The two were so frightened that they struggled and cried. The people nearby could not afford to offend these gangsters.
