Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 1267 You ambush, I ambush

   "Yuan Jun is here?" Hearing the scout's report, Zhang Xiu couldn't help raising his eyebrows with joy, as if he was delighted when he heard about the war.

   "Here we come." The scout nodded affirmatively. He saw Yuan Jun's battle flag with his own eyes, saw Yuan Jun marching forward in line, and even almost collided with Yuan Jun's leading scout.

   "It's good if you come." Zhang Xiu rubbed his hands, and there was an irresistible smile at the corners of his eyes and mouth.

   Zhang Xiu has always considered himself a lucky person, but unfortunately he did not get enough meritorious service. This time Yuan Jun marched into Shangdang Huguan, Zhang Xiu thought it was an opportunity.

   Even though Yuan Jun came quickly, it was beyond everyone's expectations, but after all, he had to go on a mountain road, and he couldn't catch up with the speed of the cavalry rushing to help. Therefore, Zhang Xiu, who set off first, naturally arrived at Huguan County first. Yuan Jun's high-ranking officers can only attack Huguan with their backs, or they can only confront each other, and confrontation must be unacceptable to high-ranking officials. He has limited supplies and difficult mountain transfers, so it is only good for a quick battle and a long-term confrontation. .

  Since seeking a quick battle, there are naturally flaws.

   Zhang Xiu thought that although he was not as strategic as Fei Qian, the general who conquered the west, he had learned some skills of a three-legged cat, so after waving his hand to let the scouts explore again, he immediately found Jia Qu.

  However, Jia Qu's thinking was somewhat different from Zhang Xiu's. The two even had a dispute because of their different positions and views.

Hearing that Yuan Jun invaded Huguan, Fei Qian led Zhang Xiu from Pingyang to Huguan via Taiyuan. Although he was a cavalry soldier, he traveled day and night all the way. Under such circumstances, not to mention the pawns, the physical strength of the horses did not fully recover. Therefore, when Yuan Jun approached Huguan, Jia Qu's idea was to stick to it.

  However, Zhang Xiu felt that Yuan Jun had come from a long way. In terms of exhaustion, Yuan Jun must be more exhausted than himself. Therefore, there is no special disadvantage in the two evens, so he can take the opportunity to make a move.

Jia Qu disagreed. He believed that the senior cadres acted first and rested for a few days, and that human endurance recovered faster than war horses. Although the cavalry was faster, they rushed from Pingyang to Huguan. One day, but it was still not enough to restore all the horses' strength, and it did not completely relieve fatigue. In addition, there were not many cavalry on his side, so it could not form an absolute advantage against Yuan Jun.

Unable to argue, Zhang Xiu was a little annoyed, with a bad tone, and asked directly: "Could it be that we are here at Huguan, waiting for Yuan Jun to attack? If he just pretended to attack here, but rushed towards Tunliu and the eldest son, what would happen to him?" What should I do?"

Jia Qu frowned and said, "Lieutenant Zhang, how could Yuan Jun divide his troops to Tunliu and his eldest son? They are now less than 10,000 people, and they are traveling long distances to help, with limited food and grass. The princes came from Taiyuan, among other things, the county soldiers There are at least three thousand, and there is enough food and grass, no matter from which point of view, sticking to it is definitely better than duel."

"You treat me like a bull?" Zhang Xiu snorted and said, "I mean to lie in ambush and kill Yuan Jun when the soldiers are exhausted after the attack! This will not work, and that will not work, then you Say what to do?"

   "Stay at Huguan, guard the city, recharge your batteries, and stop with silence. Wait until the army of the princes and lords arrives, and then fight to the death with Yuan Jun." Jia Qu originally thought this way, so naturally he said so.

"I thought you had some clever plan, but it turns out that you can only use this stupid method." Zhang Xiu turned his head, pointed to the valley outside the city and the cultivated land in the distance, and said, "Okay, even if Yuan Jun doesn't divide his troops, he doesn't go to fight against Tunliu. And the eldest son, what about the plowed fields outside the city? If it was set on fire, wouldn’t it be a white race this year? What should we do then? Even if we want to leave the city after the soldiers approach the city, we can only watch helplessly. with?"

   "If Yuan Jun goes around to destroy Zhuanghe, we will naturally go out of the city to intercept it." Jia Qu said with a frown.

   "Isn't that still going out of the city?" Zhang Xiu let out a sigh, and said, "Instead of waiting until Yuan Jun arrives and getting exhausted, it's better to leave the city now! Wouldn't it be better to attack the flanks or block them?"

"Lieutenant Zhang, you're making a fool of yourself!" Jia Qu said in a deep voice, "Although Yuan Jun is going to set off, it will take at least half a day to get here, plus line up in front of the battle, organize the team, and stabilize the front. It’s past midday, and no matter how bad Huguan is, it won’t be too late to hold on for a long time. By the time Yuan Jun is exhausted, it will be evening! And if you go out of the city now, even if Yuan Jun is too stupid to check the surrounding situation, then You also have to guard against being discovered by Yuan Jun in advance, where is it better to rest in peace in the city and wait in line?"

  Zhang Xiu said: "We are not so coquettish as the men of the north, so there is nothing wrong with eating and sleeping outside! The most important thing at the moment is to defeat Yuan Jun's spirit, and the rest is nothing to worry about! Mr. Jia, is it because you are timid?"

   Seeing that the two were talking more and more stiffly, the city officials on the side hurriedly stepped forward to persuade them, saying good things to each other to appease the emotions of both parties. Young people are bound to be aggressive, so their words are more aggressive. If Jia Qu and Zhang Xiu are older, this situation will definitely not happen.

Normally, Jia Qu is the prefect and has the power to govern the region, but the problem is that Zhang Xiu is a reinforcement and does not belong to Jia Qu's command. There is a dispute.

In the end, Jia Qu gave in and agreed that Zhang Xiu would lead his troops to ambush outside the city first, because Jia Qu also knew that if Zhang Xiu, who had already made up his mind, was not allowed to leave the city, even if he stayed in the city, he might not be able to get up. If there is any good effect, it is better to release it. If Yuan Jun is really ambushed, it will be good...

  ………………

  Yuan Yu led his soldiers and horses to the city of Huguan.

   Siege warfare, even with siege equipment, is not an easy task. Therefore, after Yuan Yu formed the formation, he did not immediately send troops to attack the city, but sent several soldiers to the city to scold and invite battle.

  The arrogance shown by Yuan Jun immediately annoyed many people in Huguan City. Because the maximum number of people who arrived at the city of Huguan was 2,000 at most, such a scale could only be a forward, responsible for scouting news, clearing roads, preparing camping sites, and even making corresponding preparations for the arrival of the main force. It is possible, but it is absolutely impossible to let this little force attack the city.

But Yuan Jun did this. The reason is that General Yuan Jun is actually an idiot with no military capabilities, or he thinks that the guards here in Huguan are idiots, or there is another reason, that is, Yuan Jun thinks that the Yuan family The signboard is very useful, and wherever you go, you must bow down.

  But no matter what the reason is, it is definitely not a good feeling to be underestimated, so everyone above Huguan, including Jia Qu, felt somewhat angry.

   Faced with such emotions in Huguan, Jia Qu was both happy and worried. I am happy that only when the soldiers and generals in Huguan feel angry will their morale be high, and they will be even more dissatisfied with the Yuan family, but they are also worried. What is worried is that he does not believe that Yuan Shao will send such a stupid general to make such a low-level mistake However, he would rather believe that these soldiers under the city just deliberately wanted to provoke him, so that he could show his flaws.

  Generals singled out?

   This thing does not exist.

Perhaps among the later generations of the Three Kingdoms, the most exciting thing is the generals one-on-one, or simply one-on-one like Hulaoguan, and then pave the way for the Taoyuan Sanji friends to play, but in fact, the generals are singled out. It will only happen in very rare cases. If a strong general can conquer the whole world, then what is the point of recruiting soldiers? Just bulldozer all the way.

   "Emissary, do you want to shoot these scolding thieves?" A team leader pointed to Yuan Jun, who was jumping up and down under the city, and asked.

"No need." Jia Qu shook his head, but there was a smile on his face, "I don't pay attention to this kind of trick of cursing, and these guys can make someone feel restless like this? A joke, and Let them scold."

   Jia Qu immediately ordered to ignore these scolding soldiers, and they didn't even need to shoot.

  Yuan Jun’s soldiers screaming at the city stretched their necks and yelled for a long time. As a result, there was no response from the city, and their arrogance became more and more arrogant.

  Yuan Yu frowned a little. His purpose of coming here was not to attack the city, but to lure the enemy. He didn't expect that General Zhengxi in Huguan County could hold his breath so calmly, which made him a little embarrassed.

   Directly attacking the city is a joke, but Yuan Yu didn't come here for the purpose of attacking the city, so he simply ordered some small teams to go outside the city and start destroying it.

Like most cities, not all living and production facilities will be built within the city walls. For example, some relatively cheap and secondary living and production facilities are still not far outside the city, such as logging houses, Dyeing and bleaching workshops, and even some workshops for firing earthen pots and so on.

However, these houses and workshops originally did not have any food except for mud and wood, and even if there were some supplies, they were all cheap mud, wood, tiles, etc., which could not be eaten or used. Therefore, in most cases, shelter from the wind and rain is okay, but otherwise, there is not much to be interested in.

However, when Yuan Yu sent a small team of soldiers to smash and set fires everywhere, it aroused a lot of anger in Huguan County. Even if Jia Qu ordered people to strictly guard the gates and stick to their posts, some soldiers still couldn't help it. Pointing at Yuan Jun under the city and yelling at him, some school officers and soldiers even began to think that Jia Qu was too useless.

  Yuan Yu needed exactly this, so he became more and more arrogant...

  ………………

  Zhang Xiu originally led a small number of cavalry, so he shrank into the valley and hid himself. After all, although most of the Shangdang area is flat land, it is normal to have some gullies, gullies, hills and high slopes.

  I thought about hiding, and then when the sky was darker, Yuan Jun was exhausted, and suddenly rushed out from one side. It was best when Yuan Jun called the gold guards, and the best effect could be achieved.

   Seeing Yuan Jun unscrupulously destroying and setting fires everywhere, Zhang Xiu couldn't help but gritted his teeth.

   "Lieutenant!" Suddenly a cavalry whispered, "A team of Yuan Jun is coming!"

It turned out that as the nearby houses and tile kilns around Yuan Yu were destroyed, these somewhat addicted soldiers of Yuan Jun began to go out, to further places, and unknowingly, a group of them walked towards the hill where Zhang Xiu was hiding. Come!

"Damn it!" Zhang Xiu stared at Yuan Jun's loose queue and gritted his teeth fiercely. Although it was not the best time, if he was really discovered by this group of soldiers, he might as well take the initiative to attack, "Copy the guy ! Fuck it!"

  The cavalry rushed out from behind the mountain, and before this small group of Yuan Jun could react, they crushed it. The twenty or so Yuan Jun had no time to make any resistance, and were drowned in the smoke and dust raised by the horseshoes!

   Panicked cries sounded in Yuan Jun's formation, and countless eyes were focused on Zhang Xiu at this moment!

  The violent power of the cavalry was undoubtedly revealed. Zhang Xiu took the lead and plunged into Yuan Jun's array before he could turn around, aiming at the tall Yuan Jun Zhongjun battle flag!

  Zhang Xiu took the lead, and the spear in his hand flickered between the necks and chests of Yuan Jun's soldiers like a snake, bringing up **** flowers. When cavalry hedges, if they only know how to stab with a long spear, they will eventually be unable to hold the impact, so most of the time they use the sharp edge of the spear tip to cut. Made of refined iron, the gun head mixed with hundreds of refined steels, under the impact of high-speed war horses, penetrates and cuts the flesh and blood of the armor, just like slashing across the muddy ground with a sharp knife. Although there is a sense of hindrance, it is not strong , but if too much force is used, causing the tip of the spear to completely penetrate the body, or hit a hard bone such as the sternum, then the strong reaction force will also make Zhang Xiu's tiger's mouth numb, or the spear will probably die two or three times. Can no longer hold the lock.

Yuan Jun's infantry slashed at Zhang Xiu and the others in disorder, but the cavalry attack by Zhang Xiu and the others was not like the wall-like collision of chained iron chains in later generations, but a bit like barbarians. Generally, the impact array is slightly loose, so there is more or less room for movement on the left and right. Therefore, when Yuan Jun's pawns tried to resist, Zhang Xiu and others deflected a little and let them pass, and they were quite **** without waiting. Yuan Jun's soldiers withdrew their swords and guns, and the next Bingzhou cavalry arrived. The sharp saber easily cut Yuan Jun's neck, and the blood burst into the sky with the head.

  In an instant, Zhang Xiu, as the spearhead of the whole army, had already slammed into the Yuan Army's infantry brigade! There is only one target in Zhang Xiu's eyes, and that is Yuan Yu under the fluttering Chinese army banner!

The closer you get to the Chinese army, the denser the soldiers are. For a moment, I don't know how many weapons are slashing at Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu has a little bit of the horse's belly. With one step, he directly bumped into Yuan Jun who was just raising his saber to slash, and immediately knocked him out, rolling the gourd with several people.

Zhang Xiu tilted his head slightly, and let the spear stabbed by Yuan Jun's cavalry from one side pass, and swung the spear with his right hand for half a circle. When the two horses passed by, half of the spear tail appeared directly from behind With a "poof", it pierced the waist of Yuan Jun's cavalry! Suddenly Yuan Jun's cavalry brought a **** hole, turned over and fell from the horse!

Seeing the banner of Yuan Jun's Central Army in front of his eyes, Zhang Xiu pulled out the saber at his waist. The hundred-refined saber made by Huang's workshop in Pingyang was extremely sharp. A gloomy cold light was opened!

  Blood flying everywhere!

  The clothes and armor are flat!

  The rest of the cavalry following Zhang Xiu all charged forward bravely. They will be fierce generals and their soldiers are elite soldiers. Even though Yuan Yu was prepared to retreat in his heart, he was terrified when he saw that the Zhengxi cavalry was so powerful!

Yuan Jun's pawns were originally not well-organized, and Yuan Yu deliberately lured the enemy, so he didn't stop with all his strength from the beginning. As a result, he didn't expect Zhang Xiu to be so brave, and he penetrated layer by layer. To kill in front of Yuan Yu!

  Yuan Yu couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat. Seeing his soldiers being killed by the Zhengxi cavalry in an instant, he couldn't care less about taking his time. He yelled, turned around and ran away with the guards!

As soon as the Chinese army's battle flag was moved, the soldiers on the head of Huguan City found it, and they opened their mouths in unison. Suddenly, Yuan Jun's morale was greatly reduced, and he stopped gathering to encircle Zhang Xiu and others, and followed Yuan Yu's flag to start Turn around and run away.

"Catch up!" Zhang Xiu laughed loudly, brandishing his long spear, and shouted loudly, "Come here, send an order to Mr. Jia Shijun. If you have the guts, you can follow someone to kill the thief, and if you don't, just clean up the battlefield! Brother!" Ladies and gentlemen! After taking the head of the enemy general, Mr. Zhang and everyone will celebrate together, drinking in big bowls and eating meat with big pieces!"
