Chapter 304 All soldiers, charge with me! (Please ask for a monthly ticket, book friends)
In Hanzhong and Nanzheng Pass, a large number of soldiers and horses were stationed here.
At Nanzheng Pass, flags were placed everywhere.
A large number of soldiers are displayed here.
Nanzheng Pass is one of the gateways of Hanzhong, and behind it is the heart of Hanzhong.
Zhang Lu, Yang Song and others had the idea of blocking Liu Cheng's army in front of Nanzheng Pass.
The road to Shu is difficult and it is inconvenient to transport grain and grass.
The land of Guanzhong, Dong Zhuo and others only passed there this year.
Although under Liu Cheng's suggestion, measures such as Mintun were implemented.
A lot of farmland was opened up and a lot of food was grown.
However, these grains are not yet mature.
Dong Zhuo launched an army to attack Yizhou this time, using the excuse that Liu Yan would not provide food and grass, but in fact, there was not much food and grass in Guanzhong.
As long as he can firmly hold Nanzheng Pass, Yangping Pass and other important gates, if the delay is long enough and he is restricted by food and grass, then Liu Chenggong will have to retreat!
From now on, Hanzhong can be considered a victory.
This time, there is no food and grass here in Yizhou. It is not that easy for Dong Zhuo to get enough food and grass and accumulate enough strength to defeat Shu!
It will be impossible for at least a year and a half to send troops to Sichuan again to attack Yizhou!
This was the strategy discussed by Zhang Lu, counselor Yang Song and others.
This is also the tone they have set for this battle.
Zhang Lu and others did not have the extravagant hope of defeating Liu Cheng and Liu Huangshu, who wanted to have many soldiers and were very good at winning battles.
Even if the two sides are now in a hostile position, they feel that this matter is unrealistic.
However, they are on the defensive side.
There is no need to defeat Liu Cheng.
They only need to rely on the favorable terrain, defend here, and delay for a long time until Liu Cheng's troops, horses, food and fodder are exhausted and he has no choice but to retreat, and they will have won a complete victory!
I have to say that Zhang Lu, Yang Song and others have a very clear understanding of themselves, and the strategies they have formulated are very suitable.
At this time, the main general in Nanzheng Pass was Yang Bo, the younger brother of Zhang Lu's chief adviser Yang Song.
In addition to Yang Bai, there was another partial general, also named Yang, named Yang Ang.
The Yang family is a prominent family in Hanzhong.
Just from this person's surname, we can know that this person was also born in the Yang family of Hanzhong.
This man has a close relationship with the two brothers Yang Song and Yang Bai.
They are the uncles and brothers of a grandpa.
…
"Only less than a thousand people came?
Is it Zhang Xiu, the pioneer?"
At Nanzheng Pass, Yang Bai listened to the whistleblower's report. After pondering for a while, he watched the whistleblower ask this question.
Hearing this, the sentry nodded vigorously: "That's true. It's less than ten miles away from here now."
Yang Bai nodded after hearing this.
Then he began to order: "Remove half of the closing flag immediately!
After removing it, close the defensive soldiers, squat down halfway on the spot, and don't make any sound or raise your head!
All the crossbowmen, please come here and meet at the main gate.
Except for a small amount, the rest must be hidden! Don’t show your face!”
Here at Nanzheng Pass, tension immediately became tense as guard Yang Bai issued the order.
Everyone immediately acted according to the order he gave.
"Brother, are you planning to show weakness to the enemy and then lure the thief to Nanzheng Pass and shoot him?"
Yang Ang came over, looked at Yang Bai and asked with a smile.
Yang Bai nodded: "Liu Cheng, the traitor, invaded Hanzhong for no reason and refused to let some people die. How could he have such bad breath in his heart?
Let's defeat him for a while and kill some of his soldiers and horses, so as to reduce his majesty and let him know that we, Hanzhong, cannot be underestimated!
This is not a place where he can come casually!
Moreover, only dead enemies are the best enemies!
If you kill one more person at this time, when the time comes and we guard Nanzheng Pass, the pressure will be reduced..."
Listening to his brother Yang Bai's words, Yang Ang nodded vigorously.
He felt that his brother was right.
This time, their main focus is defense.
But when the time is right, it is also very good to use some means to kill more enemies.
Only dead enemies will never participate in the attack on Hanzhong...
Zhang Xiu held a gun in his hand.
There was a lot of black on the gun in his hand.
This was caused by the blood left behind after killing the thief before and dried on it without having time to wipe it off.
Zhang Xiu looked very embarrassed at this time.
His hair is messy and his armor is not shiny.
The whole person is also more reserved than before.
However, Zhang Xiu at this time was more terrifying than before.
Behind him were nearly a thousand soldiers.
These are the people who followed him and moved forward quickly along the plank road.
On the way, they encountered two more people who set fires, and they killed both of them.
The burned plank road was repaired by more than 3,000 people following behind.
After walking for a while, the terrain became open.
At least it is much wider than the plank road.
After walking forward for a while, a pass appeared in front of Zhang Xiu.
The pass looks very majestic, with flags on it and soldiers guarding it.
Above the gate of the pass, there is a plaque hanging with a few big words: "Nanzheng Pass!"
Zhang Xiu stood here with his gun on the ground, holding it in his hand, squinting and looking at Nanzheng Pass.
There are not many flags at Nanzheng Pass.
There were a lot of soldiers, but not as many as expected.
After Zhang Xiu looked at it carefully for a while, he sent an order for people to set up camp.
At the Nanzheng Pass, Yang Bai, who had been sizing up Zhang Xiu and his troops, and who was looking forward to Zhang Xiu's troops coming to attack the pass, couldn't help but feel angry and a little disappointed when he saw this.
Why didn't this damn Liu Cheng's subordinates come to attack his own pass?
Why did it stop there without moving?
Half an hour has passed, an hour has passed, an hour and a half has passed...
Zhang Xiu and others are still setting up camp here.
There were many people holding ropes, and it looked like they were preparing to build a barracks.
The defenders at Nanzheng Pass gradually became impatient as they watched the enemy army, which numbered less than a thousand men, doing these things in an orderly manner in front of them.
It was at this time that things changed.
"Commanders, follow me and charge! Take Nanzheng Pass!"
Zhang Xiu, who had the gun in his hand planted on the ground, a knife in one hand and a rope in the other, suddenly shouted loudly.
At the same time, he took the lead and ran towards Nanzheng Pass!
There were almost three hundred soldiers building the camp, and unknowingly they gathered around Zhang Xiu in front. After hearing this, they immediately followed Zhang Xiu and started charging!
The remaining soldiers also moved forward one after another.
Hundreds of archers also rushed forward to find a favorable position, preparing to suppress Nanzheng Pass!
They are actually preparing to storm Nanzheng Pass!!
