Chapter 2326 You and I are enough
If it is said that when Wei Yan was still in Hanzhong, Zhang Ze paid more attention to Wei Yan''s situation, maybe he would have made more correct judgments about Wei Yan at the moment, but it is a pity that Zhang Ze put all his heart and soul into how to deal with Liu Dan. As for Wei Yan Well, it was after Wei Yan entered Sichuan and Shu that Zhang Ze suddenly remembered that there was such a number one character, and he had already missed it.
But this incident alone is not a big problem, but the subsequent problems will be serious...
Zhang Ze''s biggest mistake in regards to Wei Yan was that after he knew Wei Yan''s deeds, he still didn''t study Wei Yan carefully, and even despised him from a high place on a certain level, saying that he didn''t do a good job. , That also seems to have some problems, and then he feels that he is the only one in the world who can do it, and he has no mistakes.
After Wei Yan shot a false shot, Zhang Ze made a wrong judgment.
Zhang Ze didn''t even realize that his judgment was based on the answer he hoped and liked the most in his mind. It was like buying a lottery ticket and then thinking about which supporting facilities in the surrounding real estate would be better. It''s not based on how many directors, er, generals were arrested.
So Zhang Ze was wrong.
Received supplies from the Nanshan Army Village, and then briefly repaired Wei Yan''s soldiers. Although it is impossible to completely recover from the exhaustion of the long journey, they can be considered to have recovered 70% to 80% of their combat power.
Wei Yan stayed in Hanzhong for a period of time, so he is no stranger to the terrain of Hanzhong. In addition, there is Zhang Shi, the leading party, so he rushed past Hanzhong under the banner of Zhang, even if he encountered some counties. The county soldiers were on patrol, and they went straight forward without any timidity.
Because Hanzhong itself is the territory of hussars, as long as Wei Yan''s soldiers change their flags, there is basically no big difference...
As for the flags under Zhang Ze''s command, there are many in the Nanshan Army Village.
Even after staying away from Nanzheng and other areas where Zhang Ze''s forces are dense, Wei Yan still walked carelessly along the official road during the day, which made Zhang Shi not only dumbfounded.
What made Zhang Shi even more unbelievable was that Wei Yan actually let his subordinates pretend to be Zhang Ze''s soldiers, and then openly extorted money and food in front of some smaller county towns, Wubao, and manors...
And it succeeds every time!
These behaviors that are like basic exercises in Wei Yan''s place are simply cognitions that make Zhang Shi feel that everything is upside down.
War, is it actually fought like this?
Zhang Shi once again deeply felt himself, and the gap between Zhang Ze and others from Wei Yan, and then thought of the Hanzhong rebellion this time from this gap, and then thought of whether there will be a rebellion from the rebellion. It was all pre-planned by Hushi and the others, but they shuddered, and in the end they cooperated with Wei Yan willingly and tremblingly, just like Wei Yan didn''t hesitate to ask Zhang Shi to pose eighteen poses on the spot.
Under such circumstances, Wei Yan approached very quickly. Even with the help of his familiarity and mastery of the terrain in Hanzhong, coupled with the characteristics of mountain soldiers, Wei Yan could march almost in a straight line. During the day, he pretended to swagger on the official road, blackmailing some county manors along the way, and at night, he walked through the mountains and forests under the moonlight, like a nocturnal tiger.
A few days later, Wei Yan arrived at the outer area of ??Fangling.
After checking the map again, Wei Yan chose to rest temporarily in a small valley west of Fangling City. After checking the terrain, Wei Yan arranged a sentry post, and let the soldiers rest, eat and refresh. As soon as the order was given, the soldiers and generals all found a place to sit down, and then took out dry food and light wine from the backpack, and ate to replenish their strength.
It is said to be light wine, sometimes it may be light vinegar, or mixed with wine and vinegar, it is not clear. Because the cowhide water bladder generally stores ordinary water, it is easier to change the taste, it is better in autumn and winter, if it is summer...
Therefore, most of the time, a little salt is added to the water bladder, but salt is also relatively precious, and not every time the water is replenished, so the next best thing is to pour in light wine or light vinegar, which can maintain a relatively Relatively long storage time.
After patrolling around, Wei Yan also sat down, took the pancake handed over by the guard, and took a bite.
After entering Hanzhong, Wei Yan hardly used the few remaining dry food reserves. Instead, he ate food in Hanzhong, begging for it on the surface or coercing it secretly. Anyway, it was all under the banner of the Zhang family, just like It is the coarse grain pancake in Wei Yan''s hands, which was contributed by the manor on the way.
Pickled vegetables, bacon, coarse grain flatbread, if possible, cook a bowl of vinegar cloth wild vegetable soup, if not, eat it with water, what the soldiers eat, what Wei Yan eats, the senior generals under the hussars Among them, Wei Yan and Zhao Yun are similar. They are generals who have risen from the bottom.
Without stewing with an open fire, there will naturally be no cooking smoke. As long as you don''t just walk into the valley, you won''t find Wei Yan and others hiding here. After eating in twos, some soldiers leaned against each other with swords and guns, rested with their eyes closed, trying to recover as much physical strength as possible to prepare for the next stage of the battle.
As for Wei Yan, he couldn''t sleep at all.
Wei Yan had a premonition that Xu Shu''s originally prepared reinforcements might not be able to keep up, so at the moment in Hanzhong, he is the only chess piece that can move.
Of course Wei Yan also had the opportunity to choose to retreat, but Wei Yan''s personality made him unwilling to choose which option was safe but didn''t have many results. Instead, he chose a more radical and risky plan...
Surprise Zhang Ran''s troops in Fangling, rescue Huang Quan!
After hearing that Zhang Shi, the leading party, said that Huang Quan was still standing firm, Wei Yan had some ideas in his mind. He needed manpower and he needed to completely mess up the chessboard in Hanzhong, so it was natural to rescue Huang Quan who was trapped in a corner. This has become the current strategy. Although Huang Quan''s troops may not be as brave and good at fighting as Wei Yan''s subordinates, at least they can cover Wei Yan, and then let Wei Yan find the gap, and then leverage the entire Hanzhong battle situation!
『Tonight, attack! 』
Wei Yan whispered the order.
There is no more time to hesitate. In the current situation, hesitation may lead to defeat. Although it is said that Wei Yan has successfully dressed up Zhang''s troops along the way, Wei Yan also cannot guarantee whether these county towns or manors will turn around and contact Zhang Ze again. If someone really does this, then Wei Yan''s The whereabouts are naturally exposed.
So one more day of delay is the risk of one more day.
Zhang Ran''s troops under Fangling City finally understood the fact that the siege and attack are also skillful after the continuous siege of the ants, and all the soldiers can complete it automatically and spontaneously. order, and then orderly siege...
In ancient times, cities were not only gathering places of population and wealth, but also were often built at water and land key points to guard fortresses and give priority to military defense.
Although ancient costume film and television dramas often use grand scenes to show us a city offensive and defensive battle intuitively, most of them are nonsense, especially when flying over the eaves and climbing up the city wall or just relying on soldiers holding swords and spears to shout forward and want to attack. A strong city is completely a gift of heads, which does not conform to the real history.
In the historical battle of Zhuge Liang''s attack on Chencang, facing Chencang City defended by only one or two thousand Wei troops, tens of thousands of Shu Han troops continued to attack for more than 20 days and still did not fall, which eventually led to the failure of Zhuge Liang''s second Northern Expedition. Battle to fame.
In the hands of someone like Zhuge Liang who is relatively good at deployment, it is quite difficult to conquer a city, let alone a grass-roots team like Zhang Ran and Jian Renwang, who only want to gain benefits and do not want to work more. up.
After suffering a certain amount of casualties, Zhang Ran and others were obviously unwilling to continue the attack like this, or they felt that even if they tried their best to attack, they might not be able to capture Fangling, and it would be better to besiege honestly.
With such an almost relaxed, even a bit dissolute mentality, one can imagine how much guard Zhang Ran and others can have left. In other words, Zhang Ran and the others were somewhat wary of Huang Quan in Fangling City, but they never expected that Wei Yan would come out from behind him!
When the first round of rockets approaching the camp shot into the air, and Wei Yan led his soldiers out of the darkness, Zhang Ran''s soldiers were all dumbfounded, dazed and flustered.
Autumn and winter were dry, and the rockets landed in the camp, some on the ground, some on people, and some on tents and other supplies, causing a fire in the blink of an eye.
The flame danced blazingly, clawing at all the people and other objects around him in the night wind, and then tried to make everything in the world join in the flame''s own carnival.
Amid the howling sound, Wei Yan''s soldiers rushed out one after another, some drew bows and arrows, and shot into the air, some held swords and shields, and rushed towards the camp. In an instant, arrows rained and people rushed.
Zhang Ran and the others were awakened by the sudden sound of screaming and killing, some were still immersed in a dazed sleep, some yelled in horror and bumped into one place, some yelled, There were also those who were at a loss, and these soldiers of the Zhang family, who were used to sleeping until dawn all night, fell into complete chaos.
"kill! 』
Wei Yan saw that the front of the wall was slashed by giant ax soldiers and dragged by other soldiers. After a piece of the wall collapsed, he rushed in first with a loud cry. Zhang''s soldiers then took advantage of the situation and rushed into the barracks, hacking left and right, roaring like thunder.
On Fangling City, Huang Quan, who had been guarding the gate tower all the time, heard an abnormal sound almost at the same time Wei Yan launched his attack, and then hurried to the battlements, holding his hand to look down.
In the firelight, Huang Quan saw the three-color battle flag raised high, and his heart jumped!
Reinforcements!
It turned out to be reinforcements!
Huang Quan restrained his excitement and carefully identified the situation in the barracks. Although the distance was far away and it was night, when the fires were lit one by one, it was determined that many of the burning objects were The tent, and a few unlucky ghosts who were on fire from head to toe, screaming and crashing, Huang Quan was sure that the reinforcements this time were real, not just faked by Zhang''s soldiers...
『Come on! drum! drum! Huang Quan shouted loudly, "Get ready to open the city and flank the enemy!" 』
The rumbling drums sounded, and Wei Yan laughed loudly. While making people lean towards the city wall as much as possible to establish contact with Huang Quan, he led his men to hack and kill in the camp to extinguish any signs of resistance. .
During the long-term training and cooperation of Wei Yan''s men, even without Wei Yan''s command, they would habitually set up an array of arrows, and then staggered and cooperated with each other to cull forward. On the other hand, the soldiers of the Zhang family on the opposite side, the queue is also scattered, and the swords and guns are also chaotic. Even if they really met Wei Yan''s soldiers head-on, there are still people who have this or that thought in their hearts, thinking that they will go to the death of the Taoist friend first. , Pindao temporarily step aside.
Zhang Lu’s five-dou rice road before. Only five-dou rice is a Taoist friend. If there is no five-dou rice—then don’t work to make money and buy rice! Laojun''s family is not rich either!
Zhang Ran wants to be on the stage, and the person thinks that Mrs. Zhang should be on...
For melee combat, Wei Yan''s soldiers have complete armor, sharp knives, and round shields that are small but strong enough. The crossbow, coupled with the tacit understanding developed after a long period of cooperation, made Zhang''s soldiers not only have to block the swords and guns that stabbed and slashed in front of Wei Yan''s soldiers when they faced Wei Yan''s soldiers, but also had to guard against them from the dark night. Among them, crossbow arrows shot out from nowhere!
Although the frequency of crossbow shooting is relatively slow, it is very powerful at close range. Some soldiers of the Zhang family who were trying to fight were shot by the crossbow, and they were thrown back together with the crossbow. A series of two, will stop with a thick bloodstain in satisfaction...
"kill! 』
Qi Qi roared and slammed straight across, the sharp blade raised high and fell like lightning.
"kill"
The spears were like a forest, rushing forward, the blood-stained red tassels trembled, gorgeous like flowers on the other side.
The soldiers in Zhang Ran''s camp were inexplicably terrified, screaming and screaming. These screams echoed up and down Fangling, making those who hadn''t come into contact with Wei Yan''s soldiers shudder in their hearts. Before the battle, they had already lost three or four points of strength.
Especially those swindlers, after seeing the fierceness of Wei Yan and others, they immediately abandoned Zhang''s soldiers without hesitation, and ran away...
In the hearts of these people, they are just here to pick up cheap things. If they can capture Fangling, then they can get a lot of money, but if they don’t capture the city, they have to pay their lives. I’m sorry for so long. Whoever wants to go can do it.
While slashing ahead, Wei Yan kept an eye on the changes on the battlefield. When he noticed that the soldiers around him began to breathe unevenly, he shouted loudly, knocked down several Zhang soldiers in front, and then ordered Alternate formations!
Under Wei Yan''s order, the **** soldiers at the forefront turned sideways and gave up their positions, while the soldiers at the back rushed to the forefront along the **** armor passage without hesitation, covering those who were originally in the front. Robesawa went to the back to recuperate and breathe...
Wei Yan''s skills on the battlefield and timing control made his soldiers look like machines that would never get tired, constantly breaking through, crushing, and killing, and defeated Zhang''s camp in one breath. Wear it, and rush to the other side of the camp!
Looking at all the soldiers who looked like blood men, especially Wei Yan''s soldiers who were tirelessly hacking and killing, the morale of Zhang''s family dropped drastically. They had been stalemate with Huang Quan for so many days. The mighty Wei Yan soldiers, and then seeing the corpses on the line of these Wei Yan soldiers rushing in, those howling soldiers felt a chill coming from the back of their foreheads, and felt that what they were facing was not a person, but someone killed from the underworld Ecstasy Messenger!
Although Huang Quan in Fangling City didn''t know how Wei Yan got here, but since he had confirmed that it was Wei Yan''s troops and not Zhang Ran''s trick to lure the enemy, he immediately ordered the gates to be opened and brought two hundred soldiers from the city with him. The three hundred auxiliary soldiers of the armored soldiers rushed out in coordination!
The soldiers of Fangling, who had been aggrieved for too long, screamed and roared wildly in excitement, coupled with the beating of war drums in the city, their momentum was also extraordinary, and they rushed towards Zhang''s camp!
Zhang''s soldiers had already been killed by Wei Yan so timidly and flustered that the formation was already on the verge of collapse. As a result, Huang Quan came out from the side again with such momentum. They turned around and ran away after unloading their weapons, some crouched in the corner with their heads in their arms, some even panicked and sent themselves to the swords and guns...
In the camp, Zhang''s flag fell down and fell to the ground, and then countless feet stepped on it, and it was instantly shattered.
A big battle, before dawn, is over.
The Zhang soldiers who surrendered knelt on the ground with their heads in their hands and waited for disposal. Many people muttered in their hearts and cursed Zhang Ze, thinking that it was because of Zhang Ze''s rebellion that they were killed and injured. , These people are afraid to even look at it a little bit.
『Text length! Wenchang! When Huang Quan saw Wei Yan, he bowed without saying a word, "Thanks to Wen Chang''s help! Thank you for the elders in Fangling City! 』
Wei Yan laughed loudly, stepped forward to support Huang Quan, "It''s easy to say! 』
『I don’t know where the text length comes from? Xu Shijun is behind? Rong Quan went to see you! Huang Quanwang looked around and asked again.
Wei Yan still smiled, "Someone came from Micang Road... Mr. Xu, he should still be in Chengdu..."
『Ah, this…』Huang Quan was taken aback.
Wei Yan patted Huang Quan''s arm, "Hahaha, Zhang Thief jumping beam clown, in this battle, a certain and Gongheng are enough to win!" 』
Just the two of us? For the sake of Wei Yan breaking the siege of Fangling, Huang Quan tried his best not to let his eyes look like a fool...
Wei Yan didn''t care, he greeted and walked towards Fangling City, "Let the sons and daughters have a good rest first, and then we will see you and I join hands to defeat the enemy!" 』
