Chapter 603 A battle of life and death
Zhang Bao was about to order the Han army to follow him, but Jiang Wei who was beside him hurriedly grabbed him and whispered, "General Zhang, wait a minute. If we charge up with these Qiang and Hu men, the Cao thieves will be defeated. But in this chaos, Under the circumstances, I’m afraid many people will take the opportunity to escape.”
"It's better to let everyone raid the surroundings first, and take the opportunity to regain their strength. When Cao Cao and the thieves can no longer hold on, we can go around and intercept them, which will definitely prevent them from escaping."
When Zhang Bao heard this, he glanced at Jiang Wei with some surprise, thinking that this boy looked so handsome and handsome, but he was also a bad and bad person, on par with that young boy Feng.
Thinking like this in my heart, my head nodded involuntarily, "Very good."
Cao Jun, who was guarding the small town of Jieting, was caught off guard and was suddenly dispersed by the Qiang and Hu men who were attacking like vicious wolves.
The Qiang and Hu could not compete with the Han army in regular battles, but they had no problem at all in fighting advantageous battles and fighting with favorable winds.
Cao's rear army began to become confused.
As the chaos got bigger and bigger, it finally caught Feng Yong’s attention. He quickly held up the telescope and looked at it. He was ecstatic at the moment, "Here, come, you are finally here!"
In history, when Ma Dazui lost the street pavilion, Zhuge Laoyao had already led his army to a few miles behind the street pavilion.
Compared to Jieting, Lueyang is much closer to Hebei City. Logically speaking, the news should be received earlier than himself. Even if the marching speed cannot be compared with himself, the arrival time will not be much slower than himself.
Since Zhang He’s specific military strength is not known, there is no way to conduct a detailed simulation on the sand table. Moreover, the situation is urgent and there is no time for Feng Yong to slowly deduce various situations that may occur in the street pavilion.
However, from Liu Yin's letter, Feng Yong can roughly understand the current situation on his own side, so it is no problem to make a rough inference about the friendly forces.
If Old Demon Zhuge really has a hand in Jicheng, then the reinforcements will arrive at Jieting one day ahead of him at the earliest, and one day behind him at the latest.
Based on his own understanding of Zhuge Lao Yao, Feng Yong believes that this is very possible.
After all, Jicheng is the county seat of Tianshui, and it is the largest and most important city in Longyou. It is also the hub connecting the north and south of Longyou.
It makes no sense that he just left with his army in such a big way, leaving nothing behind.
So this is why Feng Yong looked at the sun and scolded Zhuge Lao Yao: In such an emergency, you go at the slowest speed. What do you mean?
Seeing Zhang He personally taking the lead in fighting has aroused Cao Jun's determination to resist desperately.
Even the Mo Dao team was forced back.
Feng Yong already had the intention of withdrawing his troops. He thought that if it didn't work out, he would just postpone it for one more day. He didn't expect that reinforcements would appear at the last moment.
He quickly shouted an order, "Quick! Quick, the whole army is coming!"
At the same time, he turned around, picked up the drumstick, and beat the big drum on the handsome stage hard.
“Dong dong dong…”
The handsome drum sounded, followed closely by the war drums around it, which was deafening and resounded through the sky.
Zhang Yi, the leader of the Modao team, perked up when he heard the drums. He heard a commotion behind him, and people kept running to shout, "Reinforcements are coming, reinforcements are coming!"
The whole army was excited, everyone was excited, mustered up their courage, and worked hard to move forward.
"General, the rear army...are gone, gone, all gone!"
Several confidants took Zhang He and dragged him behind, "It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. General, please make up your mind quickly."
Zhang He's eyes were dull and his face was ashen.
The most terrifying thing in this world is not that there is no hope, but that after giving hope, it is extinguished at the last moment.
“General, general…”
Looking at the Han troops at the front and rear approaching more and more, the chaos in the rear finally spread here, and the trusted followers were anxious and called out again and again.
"Since I surrendered to Emperor Wu, I, Zhang, attacked Yecheng, defeated Yuan Tan, defeated Wuhuan, attacked Donglai, and attacked Ma Chao twice. When I was in Hanzhong, I was favored by the generals. Even with the defeated army, I was able to resist Liu Bei's hundred thousand men. So that they dare not cross the Han River and cross north."
“He was defeated by brave generals like Zhang Fei in Brazil, so he cannot be regarded as a good general by Chen Sikong (Chen Qun) or a famous general by Guo Prefect, but he also considers himself to be experienced in military formation.”
"Now that I have received high hopes from His Majesty, I led an elite army but was defeated by an unknown boy from Shu. This shame cannot be washed away by pouring water over the river. I should bear the blame for the loss of Longyou. How can I return to Guanzhong except for dying in state affairs?" And see His Majesty?"
Zhang He murmured, and the more he continued, the bleaker his face became.
When the confidant heard that something was not going well, he knew that Zhang He was determined to die. He immediately winked and, while Zhang He was not paying attention, struck him from behind and knocked him out.
Then a few people found the remaining good horses in the army, mixed them with the chaotic army, and fled south.
Zhang He was knocked unconscious by his cronies and fled. The commander's flag fell, and the last bit of support for Cao's army finally disappeared completely.
Zhang Bao had already personally led his troops south to block Cao Jun's escape route to Qingshui.
Jiang Wei these days has used the reputation of the Jiang family in Longyou and his own connections (and of course the reputation of a certain Feng tribe among the Qiang and Hu) to summon the Qiang and Hu tribes in Longyou to form a Qiang-Hu coalition army.
So he should follow closely and take command when necessary.
Liu Yin originally wanted to lead his army out of the city, but he saw the green eyes of the barbarians whizzing past the city like locusts.
He thought for a while and realized that he did not lack hundreds of wounded soldiers anyway, so he simply leaned against the city wall and fell asleep.
These days, not only him, but everyone in the city has not had a good sleep.
Now that the situation has been decided, once the body relaxed, they all staggered and fell asleep regardless of the shouts of killing outside.
Feng Yong had been beating the drum with all his strength since the whole army was charging. When he saw that Cao's army was finally defeated, he was so excited that he smashed the drumstick on the drum and burst out laughing.
Smiling and laughing, tears came out unknowingly.
Won, finally won!
No one knew how much pressure he was feeling when he came down from Longguan Pass.
Four years of secret preparation, even paying for his wife’s dowry, are just trivial matters.
Since time traveling, it was the first time that he found himself so close to this era and so close to death.
There are 10,000 people in Longguan and 15,000 people in Anding County. All those who trust me, as well as my good brothers, their life and death depend on this battle.
It just so happened that his opponent was Zhang He, who had been extremely feared by both Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang in history.
Zhang He?
Um? Zhang He?
Feng Yong thought of this name and ignored his emotions. He quickly stood up again, fumbled for his telescope, and hurriedly looked at the chaotic Cao Jun.
Now we can see that the mountains and plains are full of defeated troops, how can we tell which one is Zhang He?
Don’t let him run away again, right?
Feng Yong's heart skipped a beat, he rubbed his eyes and searched carefully again.
