At the foot of Dulong Gang, there is the army camp.
"Now that the Liangshan bandits are clinging to Dulonggang, do you have any clever ideas to defeat the enemy?" Hu Yanzhuo asked. Unlike Guan Sheng, who was frustrated at the beginning, Hu Yanzhuo was a fierce general at the beginning. Wherever the heavenly soldiers went,
The grassroots bandits all fled, and they captured Dongchang Prefecture and several nearby counties without a single blow. The army's march south was much smoother than expected.
Hu Yanzhuo: Liangshan grass bandits are nothing more than that!
However, history has once again proved that sooner or later, you will have to pay back what is coming. Setbacks may come late, but they will never be absent!
Hu Yanzhuo's army arrived at the foot of Dulong Gang smoothly. That night, they were attacked head-on by elite soldiers led by Wang Yin. Wang Yin took advantage of the officers and soldiers' mentality of underestimating the enemy and took advantage of the unsteady foothold of the officers and soldiers to lead two thousand elite soldiers.
Taking advantage of the cover of darkness, they secretly attacked the army camp and captured the former army commander "Vanguard" Suo Chao alive, giving Hu Yanzhuo a severe blow.
In the next few days, Hu Yanzhuo, Wen Da, Li Cheng and other generals took turns to fight in front of the formation. However, Wang Yin on Dulonggang was convinced by the foil and was not moved at all. He hung up the exemption card and asked Hu Yan to fight.
The burning disciple calls out Naihe.
According to the plan made before the war, Hu Yanzhuo's army must be faster, so the horse army is the main force. This time Hu Yanzhuo led 28,000 people, of which 20,000 were single cavalry, and the remaining 8,000 were
It is an infantry army. In order to support such a large cavalry, there are as many as 20,000 soldiers and civilians in the team.
On the plains, the power of the cavalry goes without saying. Hu Yanzhuo, the famous founding general after Iron Whip Hu Yanzan, has his own family tradition in the training and command of the cavalry, not to mention the three thousand chain horses under his command.
The King of Land Warfare, in the novel, as soon as the chain horse appeared, it frightened the Liangshan army and horses and fled without a fight. In the end, they had to use a trick to win the golden gunman Xu Ning to defeat the chain horse.
However, facing Dulonggang, Hu Yanzhuo collapsed. In this kind of terrain, it is difficult for even ordinary cavalry to use it, let alone chain horses. The power of cavalry is not as good as that of infantry. In addition, large siege equipment is also difficult to use.
Expand.
Because of the special location of Dulonggang, it is absolutely impossible to bypass it, because the cost of doing so would be too high. Thinking that there is an elite enemy army always staring at him from behind, Hu Yanzhuo might even be frightened out of his sleep.
Therefore, Dulonggang must be captured.
"..."
All the officers lowered their heads and looked at each other without saying a word. Judging from the current situation, there seemed to be no better option other than storming this road.
His eyes swept over the generals under the tent. Seeing that no one answered for a long time, Hu Yanzhuo took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "In this case, we will attack Dulonggang tomorrow."
"Yes!" everyone responded.
First use infantry to attack Dulonggang. If the infantry cannot take it, then the cavalry can only be used as infantry. Hu Yanzhuo is also helpless about this, but other than that, there is no other way. Wang Yin can't retreat.
What else can he do?
As for whether Dulonggang can be captured, to be honest, Hu Yanzhuo has no idea. Dulonggang is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Wang Yin is too stable and can defend Dulonggang watertight. This battle will not be easy to fight.
At this moment, Hu Yanzhuo actually had the same idea as Guan Sheng. He only hated the local officials for being incompetent and allowing the Liangshan grass bandits to become bigger.
The two famous generals Guan Sheng and Hu Yanzhuo felt very similar at this time. They both felt extremely aggrieved. The army was blocked by the Liangshan bandits.
But then again, their situations are completely opposite.
At the foot of Dulong Gang, the government troops repeatedly provoked the Liangshan Army, and the Liangshan Army could not retreat. However, in Leize, the situation turned around, and the Liangshan Army came to the government camp every day to provoke, and Guan Sheng became a coward.
Guan Sheng was waiting for reinforcements from the imperial court.
For this reason, I have to lament Wen Huanzhang's accurate grasp of Gao Qiu's thoughts. The letter asking for help was sent in the name of Guan Sheng, but it was actually written by Wen Huanzhang. After seeing the letter asking for help, Gao Qiu said nothing.
He said, with a wave of his hand, he dispatched 30,000 forbidden troops, half of which were horse and infantry, carrying a large amount of military supplies and siege equipment. They were led by Ma Xuanzan of Chou County, with veteran Pang Yi as deputy, and set out to rescue Guan Sheng within three days. It was an absolutely generous act.
So, why was Gao Qiu so generous? Not only did he not blame Guan Sheng, but he decisively sent reinforcements?
Could it be that Gao Qiu has changed his gender?
Of course not, Gao Qiu is still the sophomore in high school. The problem lies in the letter for help written by Wen Huanzhang. In the letter, Wen Huanzhang downplayed the two defeats of the army and focused on the situation of the Liangshan bandits who were confronting the army.
The Liangshan bandit leader Chen Kui has been trapped in Leize County by the army. Also trapped are Wang Jin, the "former 800,000-strong Forbidden Army instructor" and Lin Chong, the "former 800,000-gun and stick instructor of the Forbidden Army".
Seeing that Leize is about to be defeated, there is a problem now - there are not enough troops. Lieutenant Gao, you can figure it out.
Gao Qiu understood it instantly, at least he thought he understood it, and in less than three days, 30,000 reinforcements set off.
…
Leize County.
"Gao Qiu really thinks highly of us. He has sent 30,000 reinforcements. According to the speed of the army, it will take up to seven days to meet up with Guan Sheng. However, this General Guan is still unable to retreat. Do you think it will take another 30,000 reinforcements?"
How should we fight when we get down?" Chen Kui put down the information and asked.
"Commander, if Xuan Zan and Guan Sheng are united, the official army will have 50,000 troops and horses, strong soldiers and horses, and a large number of siege equipment. In this way, it will undoubtedly become more difficult to defend Leize County.
Many, which will increase casualties. According to the general's opinion, we should take the initiative to catch Xuanzan off guard. We do not seek to defeat the 30,000-strong army, but only seek to burn some of the siege equipment and food supplies to reduce the pressure on defending the city in the future."
Lin Chong said with his fists clasped.
"What General Lin said is absolutely true. My subordinates are willing to lead another army and compete with the official army again," Wang Jin said.
"General Wang, you are being very unkind. You want to be alone again." As soon as Wang Jin finished speaking, Lu Zhishen called out to him and said, "Commander, I will leave it to the Sa family this time. He will be killed for his restlessness.
"
Although Lu Zhishen has become a monk, on the battlefield, he is like a glaring Vajra with a Zen staff in his hand that kills people without blinking an eye. He does not look like a monk at all.
At present, the camp outside the city is temporarily under the full responsibility of Shi Jin. Wang Jin and Lu Zhishen entered Leize County to discuss ways to deal with the government troops. Leize County is no better than Dulonggang, and blindly defending is definitely not the best strategy.
"Brothers, the army has suffered a big loss before. I'm afraid we will take more precautions this time. Even if Guan Sheng and others did not expect it, brothers must not forget that there is also Wen Huanzhang." Shi Xiu stood aside.
He suddenly spoke and poured cold water on everyone.
"this……"
The generals were speechless for a moment. Shi Xiu's words did make sense. Wen Huanzhang's previous performance left a deep impression on everyone. In the eyes of everyone in Liangshan, this Wen Huanzhang was the military version of Qiao Daoqing and Zhu Wu.
He is an old man with a strong nose and a bad temper, so he cannot be offended.
If it were Qiao Daoqing and Zhu Wu, in this case, wouldn't they have thought of this?
No, they will definitely think of it, and they will definitely take some targeted measures, especially Qiao Daoqing, an old silver coin who is full of bad ideas.
While everyone was discussing, Chen Kui slowly stood up and said: "This time, I will personally lead the troops and meet this ugly commander."
