Chapter 587: The Importance of the Golden City


The morale of the two armies in the battle is the first priority, and they can win a small victory before the big confrontation, which will inevitably increase the confidence of their own soldiers, and in the next battle, they will have the spirit in their hearts, and they will fight bravely.

"Hmm" Zhang Chong said: "The scouts know that in addition to the Han army outside the city, the Han army closest to Jincheng is still more than thirty miles. ” A happy look appeared on Yi Di's face, and when he wanted to say something, Zhang Chong continued to say it.

"It is necessary to use a strong army to thwart the spirit" Zhang Chong seemed to ignore Yi Xuan's desire to say and stopped, and ordered to the left and right: "Suofu leads the headquarters out of the city to fight, if the enemy retreats from the defense, or the enemy army withdraws, do not pursue too much." ” Suo Fu and Xie Ai are very similar, they are both representatives of the Confucian generals of the Liang Kingdom of the Zhang family, and the family itself is also a prominent family of Zhangye.

The troops in his hands were transferred back from the Western Regions and absorbed a lot of cavalry from the Western Regions.

The city gate on the east side was wide open, and a middle-aged man in a white robe and black armor came out first, followed by a flag-carrying officer carrying the flag of the word "Suo", and then a string of light cavalry.

Zhong Xing saw Zhang's Liang army open the city gate and rush out of the cavalry, and then saw the enemy's general flag, and asked left and right: "Who is this general?"

Wang Yong replied: "It should be Zhangye Suofu" Zhang's Liangjun went out of the city, and it was by no means possible to get out in a moment and a half.

The cavalry that left the city first burst into the open space for a slow cruise, which was to warm up the war horses while waiting for the robe behind to come out.

In response, the Han army sounded the "booming" war drums, and soon some troops left the camp under construction and formed in the open space in front of the camp.

"It is worthy of a strong army that swept through Zhuhu, and the reaction was so fast" Yi Yi suggested to Zhang Chong: "General Suo's headquarters is only 5,000, it is better for the last general to lead the headquarters out of the city, and you can plunder the battle for it" Zhang Chong stared at Yi Tiao, and nodded behind him: "Since General Yi has this intention, Ben Taishou naturally agrees." ” Yi Yi got the agreement and immediately turned around and left in a hurry.

After Yi Tui left, a scribe frowned and said to Zhang Chong: "Lord, since you know that Yi Tui has different intentions, why don't you take it in one fell swoop, or remove the military power?"

Zhang Chong's family is the head snake of Jincheng, not the kind of new boss who has just arrived, under the many eyes and ears in the city, even if some people's small actions cannot get evidence, they will always find some clues.

"Don't blame him."

Zhang Chong said slightly: "The situation of the country is difficult, and there are strong enemies coming to invade, so it is natural for each family to look for a way back.

Although the generals are the defenders of the city, they have no authority to arbitrarily dictate and dictate, they have different intentions, and they can sigh in vain without evidence."

The scribe let out a low sigh.

The person in charge of Zhang's Liangguo is Zhang Zuo, and Zhang Zuo is not a virtuous person, on the contrary, he is narrow-minded and will be retribution.

There is nothing wrong with Zhang Chong being the Jincheng Taishou, but the Jincheng Zhang family is not Zhang Zuo's camp, and Zhang Chong is not Zhang Zuo's henchmen.

The beating of war drums soon sounded above the city, which was to cheer up the Zhang Liang army in battle, and it was also a signal for attack.

It took nearly two quarters of an hour for the headquarters of Sofu to get out of the house, and it took them a little more time to form the team.

Yi Tui went out of the city immediately after the Sofu Division, and did not merge with the Sofu Headquarters after going out, so it was divided into two groups, one group entered the Yongdao, and the other group followed the Suofu Headquarters far behind.

The Han army was camped six or seven miles away from Jincheng, and after removing the fortifications on the periphery of the Jincheng city wall, the open space between the two sides should be about five miles "On that mountain bag must be the generals of the Han army."

Suo Fu raised his hand and pointed to Zhong Xing's position, and he said to the left and right: "Divide the people to go, and you can't kill them alive." ” Zhong Xing and the others, who were on top of the mountain bag, soon found that there were enemy troops coming towards them from the brigade, of course they would not be stupid enough to stay where they were, turn over their horses and gallop towards the main army.

Zhong Xing was not in the headquarters, and it was Xie Ziyu who led the army to fight.

"Whether the general sent someone or not" "No, it's not appropriate to act rashly at this time."

Yi Yi was not so stupid, and sent people to contact the generals of the Han army in full view.

He squinted at the Han army that was already advancing, and then looked back at the tower, and made up his mind that he would either not move or settle the matter in one fell swoop.

The Han army dispatched a combination of infantry and cavalry, with the infantry advancing steadily in a phalanx, and the cavalry moving slowly on the left and right flanks.

Directly in front of them was Zhang's Liang Army, which didn't seem to have any formation, and the distance between the two sides was constantly narrowing.

A trumpet was blown abruptly, and Sofu's headquarters split into two in an instant, watching as the cavalry of the Western Regions was sent out to try to attack the left flank of the Han army, and the headquarters kept a distance from the Han army.

The race in the Western Regions is very complex, there are blonde and blue-eyed Caucasians, and there are yellow-skinned and black-haired people with brown eyes and distinctive facial features.

Although the latter is a yellow race, it is very different from the Central Plains people, and it is generally characterized by a high nose bridge, which is considered to belong to the West Asian race, that is, the appearance of the later generations of A1 rich and 1 Khan.

"Wow, at first glance, it's a in the Western Regions."

Xie Ziyu waved his hand: "Solve them" The Han army was actually only 3,000 men and horses, and the cavalry on the left flank was ordered to immediately break away from the army formation and charge straight towards the attacking cavalry of the Western Regions.

Speaking of chirping and wow, it is the cavalry of the Western Regions who will shout in various languages when they charge, and the more languages will naturally be chaotic, and they will continue to play with the scimitar in their hands, and some people in the Western Regions who feel that they are good at equestrianism, they will be like acrobatics on horseback, doing all kinds of fancy but meaningless movements.

"Wind, wind, wind, gale" "Shoot" The Han army had a riding crossbow, and every battle must first open the way with a riding crossbow, and the slogan was shouted by Liu Yan.

Lao Mouzi has made a movie, and it is the first milestone in Chinese history to invest more than 100 million yuan, not to mention the plot and actors' acting skills, if you want to say that the deepest impression of the audience will probably be the Qin Army archery slogan in it.

Of course, Liu Yan knew that "wind, strong wind" was designed by Lao Mouzi, but it sounded really majestic, and then it had the effect of coordinating the shooter, so it was promoted in the army.

Five hundred crossbow arrows after a leap in the air, raining down, in the mouth of the mouth of the mouth of the Western Regions cavalry shouting a few times blindly, the people and horses in the arrows made various painful sounds, all kinds of people on their backs were also staged.

"Han Army, Charge" "Hey" The five hundred Han horsemen who formed a front arrow formation, the knight who charged in front put the horse spear in his hand flat, and the knight who followed behind replaced it with a bow and arrow.

The cavalry of the Western Regions was not the first army to encounter the construction of Chinese civilization, and they themselves were conquered by Zhang's Liang army before they were used.

If you want to say what are the characteristics of the army in the Western Regions, it is probably the habit of fighting in the style of horse thieves, to put it bluntly, it is weak and ferocious, and when it is strong, it is coerced.

About 800 cavalry in the Western Regions, they were constantly shot by head-on arrows, and more than 100 people were finished before they contacted the Han army.

"A cheap seed is a cheap seed, and it is vulnerable."

Xie Ziyu said that, but he didn't look frivolous, and he gave a new order: "The cavalry on the right flank is cruising out of the formation, and the infantry is moving forward steadily. ” Under the influence of Liu Yan, the Han State has always had a concept of Han supremacy, especially the military, which has been the most deeply affected, and there is a general contempt for foreign races.

There are good and bad things to look down on aliens.

The advantage is that you can fight from the bottom of your heart, and you won't be scared at all when you face the alien race directly, and you will take it for granted that you can teach the alien race how to be a person every minute.

The disadvantages are also quite obvious, it will form a kind of narrow thinking, and when you are careless, you will also suffer a big loss.

But on the whole, cultivating the pride of one's own nation has more advantages than disadvantages.

The Han army, which had defeated the cavalry of the Western Regions, did not pursue the routed army, but made a slight detour to approach the headquarters of Suofu.

Suo Fu didn't seem surprised that his Western Regions cavalry was vulnerable, the only thing he felt was that the Han army didn't pursue.

His original plan was that once the Han army pursued the fleeing cavalry of the Western Regions, he would immediately lead the army to pounce.

"The Han army is not as arrogant as imagined."

Suo Fu saw that there were Han cavalry cruising on the left and right flanks, and there were Han infantry soldiers advancing steadily in front of him, and after a low sigh, he shouted: "The whole army retreats" On the other side, Zhang Chong had a full view of the battlefield situation, saw Suo Fu leading the army to retreat to the city, and saw that the Han army stopped in place and did not continue to approach, and also sighed lowly.

"It is rumored that the Han army is arrogant, but it is a mistake."

The scribe's name is Huang Yan, who belongs to Zhang Chong's staff, and said: "Lord, General Suo just let those people from the Western Regions withdraw after a visit, which is to preserve his strength."

"The enemy army has no flaws in the slightest, and unless our army comes out in large numbers, it will be difficult to take advantage."

What Zhang Chong is paying more attention to now is: "I thought that Yi Yi would pick up the plane and try to contact the Han general, but I didn't expect to be calm." ” Yi Wei led the army out of the city, and the headquarters did not leave the fortifications around the city too far at all, and only coordinated when Sofu led the army to retreat.

Huang Yan also said: "Since General Yi is out of the city, it is better for the Lord to order him to stay outside the city and hold on to the fortifications."

"Ordered him to stay outside the city, the fortifications will be in his hands, whether the right to guard the city gate should be handed over" Zhang Chong shook his head slowly, and ordered the herald next to him: "Ordered Yi to stay in the Yongdao, he is the deputy general, but he should return to the city to follow Ben Taishou."

At the same time, he informed Sofu that his troops did not need to return to the city, and that he was also taking over the command of the fortifications outside the city. ” Huang Yan's eyes lit up and asked, "The Lord is going to scare the grass and the snake."

Family politics, only the family who holds the military power will have the right to speak, and without the army is equivalent to losing the claws and teeth, no family will easily hand over the military power in their hands, and Yi Tui is of course no exception.

Yi Chong's approach was very simple, as if he didn't receive Zhang Chong's order, he would take back as much as he took out of the city, and he had thought of the wording before seeing Zhang Chong, but what he didn't expect was that Zhang Chong didn't mention the stubble at all.

A certain action must have been defeated, with Zhang Chong's habit of not grasping the evidence will only be vigilant and will not do anything Easy to stand behind Zhang Chong, Zhang Chong has long been aware of the talisman warrior all the time, he looked at the back of Zhang Chong's head: A gentleman can be bullied, the main thing is that if he is not caught, Zhang Chong will not attack no matter how angry he is.

There is a saying that it is said that the whole body is moved, and it is not only Yi Yi who secretly communicates with the Han army in Jincheng, which is not only easy to figure out, but Zhang Chong, who is the main general, must also be aware of it.

So unless it can be done at one time, and there is no aftermath, such as killing or capturing the person involved, there will be no chaos below, otherwise you can really only endure it.

The two sides conducted a temptation, and it was over after the death of one or two hundred people from the Western Regions.

In the back, of course, Zhong Xing will not attack the city, he is waiting for the camp to be established, and a large number of cavalry teams will be dispersed, which is to reconnoiter the surroundings of Jincheng, and also to attack and harass nearby non-local parties.

Four days later, Xie An led the main force of the headquarters to arrive at the camp, and the whole army was stationed to inquire about the situation in person.

"The fortifications around the city are dense, and the enemy troops have stationed many defenders in the fortifications."

Zhong Xing told Xie An about the situation around Jincheng in detail, and then he could be regarded as talking about other things: "Jinxing County and Guangwu County also found that a large number of Liang troops were gathered. ” The capital of Zhang's Liangguo is Guzang, which is only less than 400 miles away from Jincheng, Zhang Zuo and Zhang Tianxi are currently in Guzang, and the main gathering point of Zhang's Liangjun returning to the East from the Western Regions is also there.

Jinxing County and Guangwu County are not very important counties in Zhang's Liang Kingdom, and the number of cities is scarce and there are only three, which is precisely because of this will show the importance of Jincheng.

For Zhang's Liangguo, Jincheng is an important town that cannot be lost, once Jincheng falls, the invading enemy army should face the plain of Pingchuan, which means that the capital of Zhang's Liangguo Guzang has no danger to defend.

Before the rise of Liu Yan, the Zhao State invaded the Liang Kingdom of the Zhang family many times, and the tug of war between the two sides was in Guanzhong, and the only time that the Zhao army of the Zhao army approached Jincheng was to make the Liang Kingdom of the Zhang family go crazy and gather heavy troops to the east, from here you can imagine how important Jincheng is to the Liang Kingdom of the Zhang family.

The Han army jumped over Jincheng to explore further west, and found that Zhang's Liang army was massing in a big way, but the specific number was not actually grasped.

Based on the Han intelligence system's understanding of Zhang's Liangguo, Zhang's Liang's army in the Western Regions is constantly being drawn eastward, and a large number of people from the Western Regions are also forced to go east to participate in the war, so it can be judged that Zhang's Liangguo is to gather the strength of the whole country to resist the invasion of the Han army.

The situation was determined by World War I, and it would naturally be best if it could be done, especially for the Han State that fought on multiple fronts, Xie An was a person with a strategic mind, and he could distinguish which was more important.

"Since Jincheng is easy to defend and difficult to attack, I simply don't attack."

Xie An's words made everyone in the big tent of the Chinese army stunned.

He asked his staff to spread out the map of the mountains and rivers, and said in a very smooth tone: "Our army is less than 80,000, Jincheng has nearly 100,000 defenders, and there is a Liang army behind Jincheng that is constantly gathering.

Originally, he was going to attack the assembled Wilderness Liang Army first, and see how the defenders of Jincheng reacted. ”:
