Sweep the World

Chapter 592: : Battle plan aborted

   There is no doubt that the Han army definitely wants to cross the river, but it has to talk about climate change.

  

In recent years, winter has started earlier and spring has opened late. Xiliang is a place where snow will fall all year round. In some years, the snow is still very heavy. This year’s Xiliang is a blizzard, and the opening of spring has been delayed by nearly half. Months.

  

   The west of Xiliang is not only the Western Regions, but also the source of the Yellow River. The source of the Yellow River is actually on the plateau, and it will snow if not talking about the plateau. The water of the Yellow River itself comes from icebergs. Imagine where the water collects after the ice and snow melt, and then think about the collected water. Where will it go, and at the same time thinking about the changes in the weather, you can probably find out what embarrassing situation the Han army is in.

  

   It’s not wrong. The melting time of ice and snow varies from place to place.

  

When Xiliang began to thaw, the plateau was still white. Waiting for the ice and snow on Xiliang to melt and the ground was dried out again. The snow on the plateau entered the melting stage, and then the icebergs began to melt water, and the Yellow River. The upstream immediately entered the flood period.

  

  Water is not only flowing to low places, it is actually affected by an effect of the earth's magnetic field. What stage of the year is the flood period and when is the water flow gentle? In fact, there are so many things involved that are a little staggering.

  

   All in all, because of the large amount of water coming from the upper reaches of the Yellow River, not only has the river water risen, but also some originally peaceful river sections have become abnormally turbulent. Want to build a floating bridge in this situation? With the convenience of the U.S. military's machinery during World War II, or the conditions of modern technology, it may not be possible to do it, let alone 338 AD!

  

The Yellow River became unable to swim, and it was a wishful thinking to want to build a bridge. Xie An’s plan to cross the river to attack Jinxing County and Guangwu County was bankrupt before it was implemented. Some troops sent earlier left behind necessary spies. Most of them were diverted to Heshuo, and the large troops crossed the river without even thinking about it.

  

   Song Qin would be strange, because he had discovered that a warship of the Han army appeared in this section of the river. It only appeared suddenly and then disappeared without a trace.

  

  "Han army warship?" Zhang Zuo had to pay attention to: "What style and how many?"

  

"At the end of the day, I saw seven ships, not belonging to the building, so I can’t tell you what style they are." Song Qin briefly described it, having never been in contact with the navy, and then emphasized: "That kind of warship is not small. , With at least two bed crossbows."

  

   Of course, the Yellow River is capable of navigating ships. Zhang Zuo was nervous about how the warships of the Han army would appear around Jincheng.

  

   To understand a bit more deeply, the current Yellow River is not the kind of Yellow River that has been combed repeatedly in later generations. It does not mean that a ship can flow straight from the East Sea. Certain sections of the river are actually unable to provide navigation.

  

   Zhang Tianxi, who arrived behind, knew the news and asked the key: "Has the Han army tried to land on the north shore?"

  

   "As far as the end general knows, I don't have it." Song Qin didn't dare to say too hard: "If the end general doesn't know, then I really don't know."

  

   Zhang Tianxi looked at Zhang Zuo and said, "I have to guard against it."

  

   Zhang Zuo didn't hesitate too much, and directly instructed a soldier next to him: "Fengxiao, take his troops and horses to patrol the upper reaches."

  

   is a middle-aged man named Feng Xiao. He saluted "Promise!" and ran out.

  

Zhang Zuo really didn’t dare to be careless, especially when it came to the navy, he felt that he should be up to 120,000 points. It was all because he had seen information about the huge Han fleet more than once. It seemed that You can always appear on the battlefield where you need it when you need it.

  

So many countries have been attacked by the Han army’s haunting fleets. Zhang Zuo does not want to be the next one. He really knows that there are too many water nets in Murong Yanguo. The newly appointed Murong Jun is to prevent the Han army from using the water nets. But I broke my heart.

  

   Zhang’s Liang army is constantly coming from the north bank of the Yellow River. Of course, Xie An is always focused. He got the exact answer. Before the flood season of the Yellow River had passed, the army did not even think about crossing the river, so it refocused most of its attention on Jincheng.

  

   Jincheng is indeed a strong city, even if the Han army pulls out the outer acropolis, but there is still no trick to Jincheng.

  

"Timber-structured canals have been completely destroyed, but there is no good way to those canals made of large stones." There is a very obvious bad luck on Zhong Xing's face: "People can't move, and the effect of stone bullets is not great. , Or just poison it."

  

   poisoning? If you want to poison tens of thousands of people in a city, how much poison should you use? It can be seen that Zhong Xing is really depressed.

  

   "It seems feasible." Yuan Qiao ignored Zhong Xing, who was a little stupid, and said with a smile: "Of course it can not kill many people, but it can intimidate the defenders."

  

   Zhong Xing laughed a few times "hehe", and said, "It's better to just bury the water."

  

   Xie An nodded: "It makes sense."

  

   Zhong Xing was stunned again immediately.

  

   Jincheng has a canal connected to the Yellow River. In fact, the current Yellow River water is not yellow at all. It should be said that the current Yellow River water is so clear that you can see the fish and shrimps in it, and you can drink it directly.

  

   The water canal that connects the city pool to the river is necessary to provide people in the whole city for drinking. It is conceivable that the water canal is absolutely indispensable. It can be used as a water delivery canal, and it is also built on the side of the turbulent Yellow River. The water flow inside can not be stable. Furthermore, the width of the canal is at least four feet. If you want to dig soil to intercept the water flow, the amount of work does not seem to be small?

  

"Yes, cut off the water and stop the flow." Yuan Qiao touched the beard of his chin: "A city of tens of thousands of people, the daily water consumption must be measured in huge amounts, if the water supply outside the city is cut off, the water well in the city will definitely make it short of water. ."

  

   What kind of project is it? As long as an army wants to do it, no matter how big a project is, it is nothing to the army.

  

Xie An didn’t want to spend too much effort on Jincheng before. What he wanted was to slowly clean up after being surrounded. The main thing was to think about whether Jincheng could be besieged. Duhe used the advantage of the cavalry to directly attack Gu Zang and attack Gu Zang. Zang then destroyed Zhang's goal of Liang Kingdom.

  

No, for at least one or two months, the army should not even think about crossing the river. The north bank of the Yellow River is also constantly gathered by Zhang’s Liang army. A good strategy for crossing the river can only stay on paper, waiting for the central government’s reply regarding the transfer of Rouran. Before the mountain troops responded, it was time to turn their heads and compete with the Jincheng defenders.

  

   A trailing "newspaper" was roared out of the tent. Someone reported to the army account that the banners of Zhang Zuo and Zhang Tianxi had been found on the north bank of the Yellow River.

  

   Important people will have their own generals, not only to show their identity, but also to boost morale, so that the names of the generals can be followed.

  

  The direction pointed by the banner of the famous general, the soldiers under his command will surely attack.

  

   The military commander's Shuaiqi can even play a role in setting the sea **** needle. In times of crisis, as long as the Shuaiqi is not chaotic, the military spirit can actually be stabilized.

  

   Xie An cleaned up and stood up first: "You can take a look."

  

  The army camp of the Han army is on the east side of Jincheng, which is actually a ten-mile journey away from the Yellow River.

  

   "Premier, the banner of the Han army chief appeared near the city defense!" Suofu has been re-used recently, and immediately found Zhang Chong: "As soon as the general and the middle leader arrive, if the Han general is on the edge of the Yellow River, it would be better to..."

  

   The banners of Zhang Zuo and Zhang Tianxi appeared on the north bank of the Yellow River, and they were actually discovered on the Jincheng side. There was cheering in the city.

  

   Zhang Chong came to the north of the city to watch in person. Because of the arrival of Zhang Zuo and Zhang Tianxi, his earlier urgency was slightly relaxed.

  

   "Yes, a great opportunity!" Yi Yi took Suofu's words and said, "Why don't you send troops out of the city to intercept it?"

  

   The banner of the Han army chief is actually very easy to recognize. There is a big "" in black on a red background, and the official position will be written on the side of the flag. For example, Xie An means "Han, Zhengxizhong, Xie An". Therefore, he should be a Chinese general who is qualified to hold the flag, and he can tell how old he is from the characters written on the surface of the flag.

  

   Zhang Chong narrowed his eyes, and said unhurriedly: "There are only less than 500 people in the Han army chief and his group."

  

   "That's the way I changed out of the city for interception!" Suofe didn't go to tell Yi, but yelled very urgently: "A great opportunity!"

  

   "The commander of the first army, the entourage of many generals, and it is unreasonable to bring only 500 guards." Zhang Chong's mouth twitched, as if mocking: "This kind of trick is to set up an ambush to lure our army out of the city."

  

   Suofu was stunned.

  

   Yi Yi began to watch his nose and heart.

  

   "But..." Zhang Chong came and said, "A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. Striving for small gains and forgetting the big things, Xie An uses his body as a bait for the master, and the prefect can fulfill him."

  

In fact, there is no Zhang Liang army stationed outside of Jincheng. Zhang Liangjun will only go out of the city to fight when necessary. If it is not for some undiscovered tunnels and occasional harassment, it is equivalent to Jincheng actually Has become an isolated city.

  

  Sofh got his wish. He got Zhang Chong and allocated 3,000 cavalry. Although most of them were still from the Western Regions, they were the largest attack by Jincheng in recent days.

  

   A city has more than four city gates. The bigger the city, the more gates it actually has. That's because the city wall is too long and the import and export requirements will inevitably increase.

  

  As a military city, it actually has more gates. Otherwise, there is only one gate in one direction. How slow is it to send troops outside the city? At the same time, if there are regular city gates, there are also some emergency channels for sending troops. Generally, thick iron gates or steel gates are used to block them from the inside, and they will be opened if they are used.

  

Xie An was riding a horse, hearing the sound of war drums in his ears, and shouting in the direction of Jincheng. Turning his head and looking, he could see the three open gates. Some of the city walls were also opened more than the regular gates. A much smaller hole.

  

   The cavalry kept pouring out of the city. They were walking around the ground where the fortifications could ride on horseback. People shouted for killing before they even started the fortifications.

  

   Almost at the moment when Jincheng had troops out of the city, the barracks of the Han army were blown by a desolate horn, and cavalry was constantly pouring out of the gate wide open.

  

   On the north bank of the Yellow River, the sound of drums and horns came from a distance, and they were also far away and saw the movement on the opposite bank.

  

   "Premier Zhang sent his army to the battle." Song Qin was somewhat surprised: "The final general has been on the North Bank for nearly half a month. This is the first time he has seen Prefect Zhang take the initiative to attack."

  

   Zhang Tianxi wondered and said, "Zhang Chong is so greedy for life and fear of death?"

  

   "Is there a strong city not defending?" Zhang Zuo gave Zhang Tianxi a glance unceremoniously and asked, "Are you going to give up your geographical advantage and go to battle with the Han army?"

  

   Zhang Tianxi was not convinced, and pointed to the place where the acropolis was supposed to be there: "The sub-city outside the city was swept by the Han army one after another, but Zhang Chong did nothing."

  

That’s the same thing. The Han army turned the acropolis outside Jincheng into ruins in less than half a month. During this period, Zhang Chong hadn’t sent troops to respond, only withdrew. The troops guarding the city have reduced casualties, and it seems that it is not unreasonable to say that it is fear of war.

  

"That..." Song Qin felt it necessary to talk about his own experience: "It seems that Zhang Taishou is not to be blamed? The Han army's siege equipment is extremely sharp, and the bow and crossbow are also extremely strong. Hu Qi, who is known for his speed, is still inaccessible. Most of them are pawns..."

  

   Zhang Tianxi sneered, and said gloomily, "Brother came, but he is brave? But he didn't take the soldier's life."

  

   Compared with Zhang Tianxi, who seems to be upset, Zhang Zuo looks cheerful.

  

   In fact, Zhang Chong is not a member of Zhang Zuo’s group or Zhang Tianxi’s. Seriously, Zhang Chong is a royalist group. Whoever is the King of Liang will follow his orders. When Zhang Chonghua was there, Zhang Chong was of course obedient to Zhang Chonghua, the well-known Liang Wang. Waiting for Zhang Chonghua to be captured, and then Zhang Zuo became the representative of Zhang Zuo’s right to speak, and Zhang Chong continued to act according to Zhang Zuo’s orders. Then Zhang Tianxi would think that Zhang Chong had taken refuge in Zhang Zuo.

  

   "This..." Song Qin wasn't anyone, so he could only whispered, "Isn't the winner yet to be determined..."

  

   Suofu led his army out of the city. They hadn’t been two miles away from Xie An and other generals. They just ran into the cavalry of the Han army who came to the battle after they left the field fortification circle of the city.

  

The battle site is near the Jincheng field fortification circle. When two cavalry are fighting, there are still bold people who want to help their allies, but they dare not run out of the fortification at all, just holding the bow and crossbow. Take that cold shot.

  

   "Take a strong crossbow." Xie An frowned, "cover it."

  

   Zhang Chong sent troops to fight in order to express to Zhang Zuo and Zhang Tianxi, who had just arrived, that Jincheng’s morale was guaranteed and he was not afraid to fight the Han army.

  

   Xie An came to see Zhang Zuo and others across the river. One was to observe the coming Zhang Liangjun, and the other was with the intention of demonstrating to them.

  

A battle that showed morale and power of the army quickly became bigger and bigger. As the Han army organized its arrow formation on a large scale, the more Han army was deployed to approach Jincheng. For a time, people wondered whether the Han army wanted Formally siege the city. ) Download the free reader!!
