Old pawn sneers "vent? What kind of venting is this? If you really want to vent your anger, you have to cut off the enemy’s head. That’s venting! "
"I watched the Jingzhou army so much, but it didn’t reach the front of the village wall, and we rushed back with a shot of random arrows." The young foot soldiers turned their heads to look at the cracks in the wooden stakes of the village wall and said to the old soldier, "They just shot a little farther with sharper arrows!"
The old pawn said with a look on his face, "Did you see how a captain Gao died?"
He said that Gao, a captain, was the young foot soldier who led the troops to battle before. He was stunned and shook his head. "Although I have never seen it with my own eyes, what about this?" If it’s a big deal, we’ll stay in the camp and not go out to fight the Jingzhou army! "
"That’s easy to say." The old soldier raised his hand and wiped his forehead sweat and said to him, "Let’s set up a camp to block the Jingzhou army from going to Huaiyin Road. Do you think Jingzhou army can let us do this? Although I don’t know what the Jingzhou army is planning, I’m afraid it won’t be over without attacking Huaiyin! "
The young foot soldiers frowned and said, "But I didn’t see the Jingzhou army desperately storming our camp. What is this?"
"You don’t understand this, do you?" The old soldier showed off, "Let’s set up the camp. If the Jingzhou army comes, the storm will inevitably lead to heavy casualties. Therefore, we should first test and see where our camp is weak before we can storm there specially."
Hearing him say this, the young foot soldiers couldn’t help but get nervous and asked the old soldiers, "So the enemy has been tested?"
"Well, you’d better ask the enemy general!" Old pawn ha ha a smile funny way
Although most of Jingzhou’s troops were arrayed outside the camp of Baima Lake, Taishi Ci and Zhang Duo were not in the array, but their own battalion rested to cross the river and land, and made preparations for raiding the enemy camp of Baima Lake from the rear.
After receiving Zhou Yu’s military orders, Huang She immediately sent soldiers of the water army to prepare the ship, and at the same time, she did not relax her vigilance against the Huai River Cao Jun’s water army. She constantly sent scouts to spy around the enemy’s water village. The scouts of both sides were inevitably killed and each suffered damage, but Cao Jun’s water army was slightly weak and finally in the wind.
After noon, the Jingzhou army and Zhou Yu conducted several exploratory attacks, and although there were no casualties each time, they were almost negligible for both sides.
When it got dark, Jingzhou army led troops to retreat slowly and return to the camp. Jun soldiers were not happy when they saw it. On this day, everyone was worried. Although more than 200 people were injured or killed, most of them were killed by arrows, but not many of them would have a fierce battle. Unexpectedly, it was thunder and rain, which made many Jun soldiers feel glad.
Zhang Xi didn’t feel lucky because of this, but he felt that the situation was more and more serious. After his scouts sent out, they were always found by enemy scouts and couldn’t spy out the details of Jingzhou army camp, which made Zhang Xi feel more uneasy. I wonder if Jingzhou army will be so easy to send after it comes back.
☆, Chapter 70 The news leaked and decided.
When Taishi Ci led his team to board the ship, it was almost the first autumn, and a river wind blew from the Huaihe River, which made the soldiers feel quite refreshed. The leaves in the Woods in the distance had not turned yellow and the sun was shining. The river was slowly flowing along the shore, and the boatmen were busy nervously. The fresh smell of reeds mixed with light water vapor made Taishi Ci feel a little thoughtful and trance.
Since it was decided that 5,000 elite soldiers led by Taishi Ci would cross the river and attack the Baima Lake Camp of Cao Jun from then on, the soldiers of the water army searched for more ships to transport them to their scheduled places. In recent days, Zhou Yu has been leading the troops to feint at the camp of Cao Jun. According to the results of reconnaissance by scouts and special guard camp, the enemy in Baima Lake Camp did not have doubts, but Zhou Yu did not neglect to act according to the original plan and strengthened the control of Cao Jun’s scouts.
Until this afternoon, we finally assembled a boat to transport these 5,000 troops, but we can’t transport Taishi Ci’s troops at once. If it goes well, we need to divide them into three batches. Taishi Ci decided to go to the subsequent ministries by himself and Zhang Duo with the first batch of more than 1,500 soldiers, while Zhu Ran and Xu Gan will lead them.
Before the army set out, the water army had already sent scouts to the expected landing site to explore and confirm the vicinity, and after Cao Jun, Taishi Ci made the department board the ship.
Taishi Ci is bigger and taller than the pictures around him. His eyes are sharp and quiet, and his lips are thin. Although the weather is hot, he is still neatly armored and does not get angry and arrogant.
In fact, the difference between the water army and the foot soldiers is not strict in this era. Many times, the foot soldiers will naturally become the water army when they take a boat to fight, and the water army will often land and fight. However, the difference between the two in Jingzhou Army is quite large. Although the water army is trained on weekdays, it is not impossible to fight on land, but relatively speaking, the land force is not as good as that of Jingzhou Army.
Therefore, there are more than a hundred cavalry in this attack, and these horses alone need to take up a lot of ships, so it takes a long time to board the ship. Although there are some things such as horses suddenly jumping off the boat or soldiers falling into the water, it is going well on the whole.
The fleet is made up of hundreds of large and small ships. The front ship has sailed far away, but the soldiers are still boarding one after another. Taishi Ci has always been the leader. At this time, a big ship in front looks back and sees the fleet. Although there are many ships, it is not messy and can’t help but nod slightly.
The method of dividing troops into two ways to bypass the rear of Cao Jun’s Baima Lake camp is not new to Taishi Ci, but if it goes well, it will receive miraculous effects, and many details must be done best to achieve the expected goal.
In addition to selecting elite soldiers who are determined and powerful, they should also prepare ladders and cupping when attacking the camp. He should also prepare food, grass, tents, etc. It is even more indispensable to have swords, guns, armor, strong bows and hard crossbows.
These days, when Zhou Yu led a great army to feint the Baima Lake camp of Jun, Taishi Ci and his own camp Zhang Duo, Zhu Ran, Xu Gan and other distribution schools made a sand table simulation deduction. How long would it take if Jun scouts found out that the enemy was coming to stop when they landed? How long will it take for our five thousand troops to land? From which direction is the enemy likely to come? What if we were discovered when we were heading for Baima Lake Camp?
After several deductions, Taishi Ci and other generals have prepared for the sudden situation that may be encountered in this attack, taking into account the sudden rain and heavy rain after landing
Zhou Yu also attaches great importance to this matter. After returning to camp every day, he asks whether the warships have searched enough to send troops and whether the soldiers are ready. What else has not been considered for deduction of Taishi Ci and the generals’ schools often gives his own suggestions.
It is precisely because of this meticulous preparatory work that the division of troops went smoothly from the beginning.
Boarding places near Jingzhou Army Camp are scheduled to be 40-50 riga downstream apart, and the fleet will arrive one after another soon. When Taishi Ci waded ashore, he immediately sent scouts to explore around. Zhang Duo and other distribution schools called their respective departments to line up to prevent enemy raids according to the scheduled plan. Although everyone knows that there is no Jun near here, it is always right to be cautious.
Taishi Ci was quite satisfied with the performance of Zhang Duo and other generals. Looking at the soldiers lined up neatly and orderly, he turned to Zhang Duo and said, "When will the rear team ship arrive?"
Zhang Duolue thought and replied, "It will take more than an hour for the soldiers to cross the river."
This is about the same as expected. Taishi Ci nodded. "In this case, we can leave 500 people here and wait for the rest of the 1000 steps to ride with us to the station!"
As for Taishi Ci and other distribution schools, they rode from the northeast and came at a gallop. It was the song sent by the scouts earlier that was a famous team that galloped the horse in front of Taishi Ci and turned over and reported, "General! A team of Cao scouts was found more than ten miles ahead! "
Taishi Ci frowned and asked, "How many enemy troops? Have you ever found you? "
"The five enemy riders have been seen by the enemy because of their hasty encounter!" The team rate some shame bowed their heads and said
At first glance, Taishi Ci Zhang Duo felt that some people could not avoid this sudden situation even if they were fully prepared and planned in advance. Taishi Ci did not blame the scouts for their speed, but asked, "As far as you can see, are those five enemy scouts coming here?"
The team rate looked up and answered, "The enemy rode from the northeast to patrol along the river."
Taishi Ci squinted at the team rate and continued to ask, "Where are you going after the enemy encounters?"
"The original road to the north is to return to Huaiyin." The team replied truthfully to see Taishi Ci and motioned for him to explore again, so he hurriedly set off again with his department.
