Chapter 695 Zhang Eight Hundred vs. Zhang Twenty Thousand
Chapter 695 Zhang Babai versus Zhang Twenty Thousand
After receiving Cai Mao's instructions, the general quickly left Cai Mao's place.
Although he felt that in the end, it was better to be careful when marching and fighting.
I also thought in my mind whether the Yizhou navy upstream would take this opportunity to sail down the river and attack them.
However, when I came to the edge of the camp and looked at the pouring rain and the roaring and scary-looking river, I shook off these thoughts from my mind.
I think this idea is very unreliable.
Who would choose to swim down the river at this time if they are desperate for their lives?
Come and attack yourself!
A general who can do this will probably be kicked by a donkey!
Moreover, even if he could issue this order, there would definitely be no soldiers to carry it out.
If the situation is really urgent, it may even easily cause the soldiers to mutiny.
After all, under the current situation, they are not here to attack at all, but to let the soldiers die.
Even generals with relatively high reputations in the army would never be able to let others do this.
Thinking again about the words said by his general Cai Mao and the attitude he showed, he shook his head and threw away all these thoughts.
He is just a partial general.
On this matter, my own generals have already made up their minds and are not too worried.
Why should a being like myself worry about this here?
Just follow the general's instructions and do the work.
After standing here and watching for a while, he shook his head, returned to his tent, and went to sleep peacefully.
He has been very tired these days, so it would be better for him to sleep more.
After he left, the soldiers who were assigned to patrol quickly found a place to take shelter from the rain.
At this time, the waves were surging, and the heavy rain was pouring down like the sky had leaked to the bottom, making people unable to open their eyes.
And the temperature has also gone down.
The wind blew over, making people feel cold all over his body.
Under such circumstances, how could they really stand here patrolling in the rain?
The big shots above don't care about this, and they don't care even more.
At this time, what else are you looking for?
If you think about it with your toes, no one would dare to attack at this time!
If those people upstream of them really dare to do this, that would be the best thing.
Because if they really do this, then there is no need for them to do anything here.
He was directly wiped out by the turbulent river.
Not only here, but also at Zhang Yun's camp on the other side.
Although Zhang Yun is more cautious by nature.
But under the current situation, I have relaxed my vigilance.
Various past experiences and common sense told him that at this time, they were absolutely safe here.
Faced with this kind of weather, no one dares to come and fight.
Even so, he still sent some soldiers and horses to conduct patrols.
It's just that I don't pay too close attention to this matter.
Most of the patrolling soldiers and horses only made a symbolic inspection and quickly found a more comfortable place to take shelter from the rain.
Zhang Yun had some understanding of this situation.
But there was no real, strong force to send people down to force these soldiers to go on patrol, like usual.
After all, these are extraordinary times.
These soldiers are human beings too.
It's not impossible to let them be lazy appropriately.
If the force is too tight, resentment will easily arise in the hearts of these soldiers.
So he would turn a blind eye to these appropriately.
Let them relax a little.
It is sometimes very difficult to control soldiers.
A variety of techniques and methods are needed, and cannot just be forced.
If you just press hard, something will happen easily.
It was at this moment that Zhang, Liao, Gan and Ning led the Yizhou navy in boats and sailed all the way down the river.
Among them, Zhang Liao directly crossed the river diagonally on the way down the river.
Head straight towards the White Snake Mountain on the south bank.
The people led by Gan Ning also went down the river to see Cai Mao's Red Snake Mountain Camp on the north bank.
As time and conditions changed, Zhang Liao's strategies also changed to a certain extent.
The initial decision was to let Gan Ning go into battle, attack a small village, and destroy its iron chains.
But now, the war situation has changed a lot.
Then it can no longer remain unchanged.
It needs to be transformed according to what happens in reality.
This time, they attacked.
What needs to be done is to take advantage of this weather to catch the opponent off guard.
In this case, it is natural not to hit only one side.
It needs to attack from both sides at the same time.
In this case, it can be taken down faster.
It can prevent only one side from being hit, and the other side will get the news and take precautions.
In this case, something is not very good.
It can easily cause a lot of trouble later.
This is not Zhang Liao's style.
The river was rolling, and Zhang Liao stood on the warship.
Let the pouring rain pour down on you.
His clothes and armor were already soaked through.
His hair is all stuck to his scalp.
The rainwater flowed down his hair and clothes.
But his body was still upright.
His body was on top of the rocking warship, motionless.
After such a march, they gradually approached Zhang Yun's camp in White Snake Mountain.
It is less than a mile away from his small village.
But at this time, under the heavy rain falling, the outline of the other side's small village was only vaguely visible.
Until here, I haven't met anyone patrolling.
This situation is basically the same as what Zhang Liao expected.
This made him breathe a sigh of relief.
Hurry! We will be able to attack it soon!
The two lowest iron cables blocking the river had already been submerged by the surging river water.
There are only two top ones left.
But even so, it cannot be taken lightly.
Still can't ignore it.
If you want to lead a large ship to attack the opponent's camp, you must get rid of this iron rope.
So at this time, Zhang Liao was the first to head towards the source of the iron rope.
This is the small village in front of me.
Although it is a small village, it is built extremely solidly.
Previously, Cai Hao and Zhang Yun had concluded that if Zhang Liao, Gan Ning and others wanted to go down the river, they must destroy the iron cable across the river.
We will definitely work on both ends.
Therefore, a great deal of effort and thought was spent on the defenses deployed here.
Although the small village is not too big, its defense is extremely strong.
But at this time, because of the heavy rain, the soldiers who usually guard there have returned to their tents to take shelter from the rain.
There wasn't even a person watching outside.
In the past, it would have been impossible for Zhang Liao to sail his warship so close to the place without being discovered.
People will be discovered from afar, and a large number of soldiers and horses will emerge here to defend.
It is simply impossible to come here safely, and a lot of blood must be paid.
From this point of view, it is worth taking such a big risk and having a warship knocked over by a giant tree carried in the river on the way here, resulting in the loss of hundreds of soldiers!
Here in Zhang Yun Xiaozhai, there was a soldier who came out reluctantly to conduct inspections in the rain.
Originally, he was just making a symbolic inspection.
I only came out for a walk and then went back quickly.
At the same time, in my heart, I kept sending my most sincere greetings to my immediate boss and his family.
He scolds the team for being shameless and often puts on small shoes for himself.
In weather like this, who doesn't know that no one will come?
But he still forced himself to come out for inspection.
There are ten people in a team, and no one else will be allowed, just let yourself out.
This is simply bullying yourself!
This made him extremely depressed.
However, there is no way.
With full of resentment, he came into the rain curtain, glanced at the river surface casually, and then prepared to deal with the matter.
However, after just two casual glances, his originally careless eyes suddenly widened!
The whole person looked extremely unbelievable!
He rubbed his eyes vigorously again and found that the scenes in front of him had not disappeared.
Boat!
So many warships!!
Actually...there are so many warships coming here at such a moment!!
Moreover, at this time, people had already started jumping from the warship!
This made him stunned for a moment!
How is that possible?
Where did these people... come from?
Did you fly here?
The river roared incessantly, and they actually... could actually come here in a boat?!
After being shocked, he immediately reacted and shouted: "Enemy attack!
Enemy attack!!"
While shouting loudly, he walked towards the barracks.
At this time, Zhang Liao had jumped off the warship, led his soldiers, and rushed towards the opponent's small village.
He ignored the soldier who discovered their traces.
The reason for this is because it rained heavily at this time.
Their bow strings were all loose and they couldn't shoot far at all.
Moreover, at this time, they had already disembarked from the boat and arrived at the opponent's camp.
At this time, even if they discovered the trace, there wouldn't be much of a problem.
Zhang Liao took the lead and charged forward.
Outside Zhang Yun Xiaozhai, there were also these commotions.
However, there was not much resistance at all.
Because no one from the commander-in-chief to the soldiers below thought that someone would really come here to carry out a sneak attack at this moment!
So much so that when the man who came out to patrol shouted about the enemy attack, many soldiers in the barracks were still laughing and scolding him.
Say this guy is yelling here.
He himself was kicked out to get wet in the rain, so he decided to use this method to trick them all into going out to get wet in the rain together.
Only a fool would believe it!
Under such circumstances, how could an enemy come here to attack?
How did they come?
Did it fly in?
Of course, there are also some more stable veterans or generals who have different feelings in their hearts.
He quickly took the weapons and inspected them.
But, it's too late!
Under such circumstances, how could they compare to Zhang Liao?
By the time they came out, Zhang Liao and others had already rushed to their camp, opened the camp door, and rushed in!
"I am the general of His Highness the King of Han, Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan!
You're waiting for the descent!
Those who surrender will not be killed!”
Zhang Liao shouted loudly and stabbed to death a thief who wanted to rob and kill him with one shot.
The blood flowed out and was quickly washed away by the heavy rain!
The rest of the soldiers also rushed in, shouted at them, and killed those who dared to resist.
Zhang Liao's attack this time was extremely sudden, catching these people by surprise.
After rushing in here, he quickly took complete control of the place.
Except for a few who escaped, the rest were captured or killed.
As for Zhang Liao and others, they just sacrificed the lives of a hundred soldiers when they crossed the river.
The rest of the people did not die.
Compared to a strong attack, these casualties are really nothing.
After quickly controlling the area, Zhang Liao sent some people to immediately lift the iron cable across the river.
Some people are here to guard these prisoners who have had their weapons removed.
Of course, Zhang Liao was able to control the situation here so quickly. In addition to being extremely sudden, another reason was the constant shouting of the missionary officers before.
Let these people in Jingzhou believe that as long as they surrender, they will not be killed.
And he, with the remaining people, did not go to the boat, but rushed directly from here towards Zhang Yun's camp further below.
After some division of troops, only 800 people were left behind Zhang Liao.
As for Zhang Yun's camp, there were no less than 20,000 soldiers.
But even so, Zhang Liao still headed towards the opponent's camp without any fear!
These soldiers from Yizhou first followed Zhang Liao across the river and captured Zhang Yun's small village by surprise, which was greatly encouraged.
At this time, they saw the heroic spirit of their Governor Zhang, and they were all infected by it.
They all followed him and headed towards Zhang Yun's stronghold below!
Zhang Liao knew very well that this time they wanted to catch the opponent off guard.
At this time, if we wait until the iron cable across the river is broken, then return to the warship, and head down the river towards Zhang Yun's camp, the delay will be too long!
This will definitely put Zhang Yun on guard.
Moreover, if you board a warship and go down the river, you may not necessarily be able to walk on the shore smoothly.
So he made it directly. This seemed extremely reckless, but in fact, he had various considerations in his decision.
…
"What?
Upstream…the small village upstream was attacked by thieves??!”
After getting the news, Zhang Yun immediately jumped up!
My speaking voice has changed!!
…

(Recommended version of the Three Kingdoms, the writing is pretty good. "The Beginning of the Three Kingdoms and Killing Guan Yu"
A modern man, Hua Xiong's soul passed through the Sishui Pass, and he was lucky enough to gain the courage of an overlord when he was at a loss.
In the camps of the princes, because Hua Xiong killed Pan Feng and other generals bravely, they were frowning.
