Yangming, the leader of the Hulun tribe, led his five thousand soldiers and horses to Liucheng from the west road. His marching speed was not fast. Although Zhang Xiu only had 5,000 troops, he actually attacked Liu Bao's camp that night. You know, that is a camp of 100,000 cavalry! And get away with your whole body!
It is not difficult to see that the combat power of this Han army is very strong, even better than our own soldiers and horses. So on the way, Yang Ming had a little thought. Sha Qianli was a famous reckless man. Wouldn't it be nice to let him fight with Zhang Xiu first so that both sides would suffer, and then reap the benefits himself?
So Yangming kept inquiring about Sha Qianli while marching, hoping that he would go to Liucheng first and fight Zhang Xiu.
However, this morning, the scouts sent him a piece of news that shocked him. Sha Qianli was ambushed by the Han army yesterday and returned with a disastrous defeat.
This frightened Yang Ming so much that he quickly stopped his troops and sent dozens of scouts to find out the news.
The information came one after another, making him break out in a cold sweat. Sha Qianli was ambushed twice and was eventually wiped out. The Han troops who ambushed him were all infantrymen in Maling City, Yiqu and Fuping.
Liu Cong, the King of Han, is indeed extraordinary! His soldiers and horses are so powerful! The infantry dared to ambush the Huns cavalry, and the whole army was wiped out.
Zhang Xiu of Liucheng has five thousand soldiers and horses, and Sha Tianli has completely wiped out his army. If he goes to fight head-on, he will most likely be defeated. Even if they win, it will be a tragic defeat for their own troops, and I'm afraid there won't be many left. He didn't want to do something stupid like this.
Thinking of this, Yangming set up camp on the spot and sent out scouts to keep an eye on the movements of Zhang Xiu's army in Liucheng. This place is still more than twenty miles away from Liucheng. If Zhang Xiu comes to attack, he can retreat calmly.
Anyway, my tribe only has so many soldiers and horses. If they are all used up, all the people in the tribe will become slaves of other tribes.
Faced with Yang Ming¡¯s actions, Zhang Xiu was at his wits¡¯ end.
In Maling City, Han King Liu Cong received a message from Fei Ge from Tianwang Camp and summoned Huangfu Hong, Fazheng, and Wang Ping to the study room of the Prefecture to discuss matters.
"My lord, it seems that this Yang Ming is by no means brave and resourceful, and he is very selfish. He obviously does not want to fight head-on with General Zhang Xiu. Liucheng cannot fight for the time being." Fa Zheng said.
"That's right, let's not consider Zhang Xiu's affairs for now. Liu Bao will soon get the news that Sha Qianli's entire army has been annihilated. What do Xiaozhi think he will do?" Liu Cong asked.
"Split your troops to attack Yiqu and Fuping!" Fazheng looked at the map. "Liu Bao suffered a big loss, so he naturally wants revenge. Compared with the two places, Yiqu is closer, so his subordinates thought that Liu Bao would attack Yiqu first. Qu. If the attack fails, we will send troops to attack Fuping again."
"If he wants to attack, let them fight!" Liu Cong seemed very relaxed. Hao Zhao, the guard of Yiqu, Liu Cong was absolutely assured, Liu Bao would not get any advantage. Jiang Xu and Yang Fu are both brave and resourceful, and they are cautious and will not make mistakes.
"Lord, we must be prepared to defend the city. After Liu Bao cannot attack Yiqu and Fuping, he will attack Maling again. And recently, our scouts have also received news that the Huns are building siege equipment. . Now that our goal has been achieved, Liu Bao will not go south before taking Beidi County. Therefore, we must be prepared for a protracted war."
Liu Cong nodded after listening.
"Zijun, we need to strengthen patrols to prevent sneak attacks by Huns soldiers. Soldiers on duty on the top of the city must take turns to rest well to ensure their physical strength, and they must prepare sufficient equipment to defend the city!" Liu Cong said to Wang Ping.
"No!"
"Jianshou, you have to comfort the people in the city and tell them not to panic. When the enemy attacks the city, assist the military doctors in treating the injured soldiers."
"No!"
After Sha Qianli and Yangming led their troops away, Liu Bao's mood finally improved. The two of them have an army of 10,000, while Zhang Xiu only has 5,000. Liucheng is easy to attack but difficult to defend, so there should be no suspense in this battle.
And Liu Bao knew better that Zhang Xiu's five thousand soldiers and horses were not weak in combat. Therefore, the two sides were fighting a fierce battle. Sha Qianli and Yangming had previously supported King Youxian in going to Bei. After this battle, , it will definitely hurt your muscles and bones. Since the Han army was so strong, he wanted to kill two birds with one stone. He wanted to defeat Liu Cong and establish his own prestige, and also completely suppress the power of King Youxian Qubei.
Recently, he is seizing the time to build siege machinery. He wants to show Han Wang Liu Cong that the Huns soldiers can not only fight in the field, but also attack cities.
"Chiefchief" At this moment, He Hetie ran into Liu Bao's handsome tent.
"Why are you panicking?" Seeing He Hetie's panicked look, Liu Bao was a little angry.
"Chief, something bad happened. Sha Qianli was ambushed by the Han army and the entire army was wiped out!"
"What?" Liu Bao was shocked when he heard this, "What happened? Who ambushed Sha Qianli?"
"Chief" He Hetie told the whole story.
"This" Liu Bao suddenly leaned on the handsome chair.
The Hun cavalry was ambushed by the Han infantry in the wild. This was something that had never happened before, and all five thousand cavalry were killed.
Liu Bao was extremely angry. Although he had the idea of ??killing someone with a borrowed knife, what he needed was to hurt both sides! This disastrous result was unacceptable to him.
Of course, the same was true for He Hetie. When he first heard the scout's report, he didn't believe it anyway. But later, more scouts sent letters of information, which confirmed the matter and also made him understand it again. Han army.
"Chief, there are 10,000 soldiers and horses in Yiqu and Fuping cities each. The general thinks that they should be annihilated first to avoid future troubles." He Hetie said.
"Yes, I must destroy Yiqu and Fuping City and kill them all!" Liu Bao suddenly said, "He Hetie, I order you to lead an army of 20,000 people and bring all the siege equipment. Defeat Yiqu City and then massacre the city!"
Liu Bao is really angry! After they captured the city before, although they killed countless people, they did not massacre the city because they not only needed heads, but also slaves.
"Follow the order!"
After He Hetie went out, Liu Bao thought for a while and sent someone to bring General Gu Liqi.
"Gu Liqi, I order you to lead an army of ten thousand and station it in Fuping City to contain the Han army in the city. During the process of Hehe Tie's attack on Yiqu, not a single soldier in Fuping City is allowed to go to support him!"
"Follow the order!"
"Liu Cong, I will let you live a few more days. After I conquer Yiqu and Fuping, I will attack Maling!"
Since all the siege equipment was taken away by He Hetie, Liu Bao had no choice but to postpone the plan of storming. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
