Chapter 536: Offensive and defensive change

Qin Jun rested all night, and nearly 200,000 troops approached Youzhou City the next day, arranging them in a large array to challenge. The soldiers of Youzhou saw the Qin army's formation like a mountain, and the banners were surging, and he couldn't help feeling panicked. Yuan Xi stood on the wall and looked at Qin Jun's powerful lineup, and couldn't help but change his color and said: "I have long heard that Qin Jun is the world's best, and it is a well-deserved reputation at first sight today!"

At this time, Qin Junzhong ran out of the flag gate until under the city wall, shouting and challenging: "I am I am Zhang Yide, who dares to fight to the death with me!" The huge voice rolled in the sky like a thunder. roar. The generals of Army Youzhou were frightened and their complexion changed drastically, and they did not dare to show the atmosphere.

Yuan Xi looked terrified and said: "This person, who is this person?"

Ju taught next to him: "This person's name is Zhang Fei, whose name is Yi De, he is a life-threatening warrior under Chen Lang's command. He is brave enough to be brave. It is said that taking the head of the general among thousands of troops is like trying to get something! Yuan Xi was even more frightened, looking back at his generals, and asked, "Who dares to play in battle?"

The generals looked at each other and bowed their heads, no one dared to answer. As the saying goes, the shadow of the famous tree of man, Zhang Fei has followed Chen Lang in the South and North battles and killed countless famous generals during this period of time, and it has shocked the world. These generals in Youzhou still have self-knowledge, knowing that going up with their own ability means sending them to death. As the saying goes, it is better to hide clumsiness than to show one's ugliness. Rather than go up and die, it is better to be a tortoise with a shrunken head.

Yuan Xi was frustrated when he saw that no one of the generals under his hand dared to fight. The soldiers of Youzhou on the front of the city all expected someone from their side to defeat Zhang Fei. However, after waiting for a long time, they didn't see a general who dared to play. Everyone was frustrated, and their morale could not help but drop to the bottom.

Zhang Fei yelled outside the city for a long time, but no one went to fight all the time. He couldn't help but become annoyed. He shouted: "You are so timid, since you dare not fight, I don't want to surrender early!" Rolling, many Youzhou soldiers couldn't help but give birth to the urge to surrender. Of course, it was impossible for Yuan Xi to surrender at this point, and Zhang Fei's yelling had no effect.

Dangdang Dangdang, the sound of the golden bell in the Qin army rang, and Zhang Fei, who was full of anger, had to turn his horse back to Chen Lang's side. Zhang Fei pointed to the head of Youzhou City and said angrily: "These courageous rats, no one dares to fight!"

Pang Tong smiled on the side and said: "Wing Dehu is very powerful, Yuan Xi has no famous tiger general, so naturally he dare not come to die!" Then he clasped his fist at Chen Lang and said: "Master, although the enemy did not go to war, but passed General Wing De A round of challenge, otherwise morale will be severely set, it is better to take this opportunity to attack the city with all your strength, maybe you can go down in one go!"

Chen Lang had this intention, and immediately raised his right hand and shouted: "The army is attacking!"

The sound of war drums rang and earth-shaking loudly, and in an instant huge guns and arrows were intertwined with stones and oil tanks flying all over the sky, the Youzhou city wall immediately boiled, and amidst the thrilling loud sound of crackling, Youzhou Army was beaten up and down! I saw a Youzhou officer above the city just dodge the flying stones, but was hit by guns and arrows that flew almost at the same time by coincidence, and the whole person was hit by a huge force and flew straight out. The wall fell under the wall! The Youzhou Army did not expect that the Qin Army’s long-range attack was so sharp and swift. He was beaten to death and wounded for a while. The officers and soldiers squirmed around with their heads. Yuan Xi and others crawled and fled under the support of Qin Bing. The city wall.

The fierce bombardment had not yet ended, and the assault troops rushed toward the city wall with siege equipment such as climbing stairs and flying towers like a tide. In a blink of an eye, I saw countless ladders on the top of the city, and the brave Qin soldiers climbed bravely, looking from a distance, as if countless ants were attached to the city wall. The Qin Army's offensive was so fierce, the Youzhou Army was struggling to support it, and the line of defense was faltering. I saw an officer of the Qin Army jumped up to the top of the city and slammed into the Youzhou Army. With a big knife, he raised the blood in the sky, killing the Youzhou Army officers and soldiers with blood and flying, almost unstoppable.

...

The fierce fighting lasted from morning to noon, and from noon to evening. Youzhou City is like a flat boat in front of the surging waves, crumbling!

It was getting late, and the golden bell of retreat sounded in the Qin army's army. The Qin army, which had been attacking for a whole day, retreated in an orderly manner like the low tide of sea water, and then retreated back to the camp. The tragic battlefield that was originally noisy seemed to be quiet suddenly. The officers and soldiers of the Youzhou Army who had been fighting hard all day finally breathed a sigh of relief. Many people collapsed on the spot and couldn't get up in the blood of the corpse.

In the Qin Army's big tent, Chen Lang walked up to sit down, and the generals were listed on the left and right.

Zhang Fei couldn't help but said: "I didn't expect those turtles with heads to stop our onslaught!?"

Pang Tongdao: "The Youzhou Army has always been brave and good at fighting, and most of the soldiers and horses are actually the troops of the original Gongsun Zan. These soldiers and horses fight with foreign races all the year round, and the combat power is absolutely not to be underestimated. But today's Youzhou Army does not have outstanding generals and leaders. Otherwise, the combat power should be more than that."

Chen Lang nodded, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

At this time, the scout sent a daily report. After reading the report, Chen Lang said: "The Karasuma Cavalry is detouring to our rear." The generals were all startled, and Zhang Fei said angrily, "Yuan Xi dare to surround us!"

Pang Tong said to Chen Lang: "This is the strategy given by Ju. Use Youzhou to attract us, then use Karasuma cavalry to cut off our army's retreat, and wait until Gongsun Du's army comes up before fully counterattack." Chen Lang nodded.

auzw.com Yuan Xi boarded the Youzhou City Wall accompanied by everyone. Yuan Xi looked at the devastated city wall and the tragic sight of corpses piled up like a mountain. He couldn't help being frightened. He couldn't help but sighed: "Unexpectedly, it was only the first day that our army suffered such a heavy loss, and it was almost impossible to withstand it! Qin Junbi The legend is even more terrifying! If this continues, I'm afraid they will break the city in a few days!" Everyone also looked worried, only Jushou clasped his fists and said: "Don't worry about the lord! Qin! Although the army is strong, it is impossible to break the city without ten and a half months! The Karasuma cavalry can cut off the enemy's retreat in three days at most, and the army from Gongsundu can arrive in five days at most! At that time our army You can turn defense into offense and defeat into victory!"

After hearing Jushou’s analysis, Yuan Xi couldn’t help calming down a lot of fear and anxiety, but he still asked with some worry: “Even if we surround the Qin army, can we smoothly wipe them out as planned before? ?"

Jushou said decisively: "It must be possible!"

When Yuan Xi heard Jushou's words affirmed for the first time, he couldn't help but become more confident.

There was no sleep all night, and the next day before dawn, Yuan Xi, who was worried, came to the hall early. Seeing Yuan Xi's arrival so early, the officials staying in the hall quickly got up to meet him.

Yuan Xi walked to the head and sat down and asked several officials: "Are there any new situations?"

An official bowed and said: "Report to the lord, no new information has been sent."

However, as soon as his voice fell, Ju Shou stepped forward from outside.

Seeing Jushou's arrival in a hurry, Yuan Xi couldn't help asking in a panic: "Mr. Jushou, is the Qin army attacking again?"

Jushou saw Yuan Xi present, and hurriedly stepped forward to meet him, and then said: "It's great for the lord to be here! The lord, let me go to the city wall!"

Yuan Xi didn't know what to do, and hurriedly asked: "What happened? Why is the gentleman so anxious?"

Ju Xie clasped his fist and said, "It's good news, lord! I just saw the enemy withdrawing overnight on the city wall!"

Yuan Xi couldn't believe it, Huo Danji started and asked anxiously: "Is it true? The enemy has withdrawn? How is this possible?"

Jushou analyzed: "According to my estimation, our army's actions should have been discovered by the enemy, and the enemy had to retreat overnight for fear of being trapped in a siege!" Then he clasped his fists and said, "Master, the fighter has appeared!"

Yuan Xi quickly asked: "The Karasuma Cavalry has cut off the Qin Army's retreat?"

Ju taught: "I haven't received the news, but it is estimated that it will be within two days. The current situation is different from when we planned. The enemy has not been attacking the city and retreating too quickly! The enemy's situation has changed. , Our strategy must also be changed. If we still insist on the previous strategy, I am afraid that the Karasuma cavalry will face the Qin army alone. Although the Karasuma cavalry is crowded, they will definitely not be able to stop them. If the Qin army defeats the Karasuma cavalry, We fell short!"

"Then what should I do?" Yuan Xi asked anxiously.

Ju taught, "Master, don't worry! At present, the Qin army is like jumping out of our trap, we won't let them do what they want!" Then he said: "Please immediately send the three armies to chase the Qin army to contain them! The Karasuma cavalry and the Liaodong army arrived, and if the three of us besiege with all our strength, we will surely win a big victory!"

Yuan Xi did not immediately agree, frowning slightly, as if he was worried. Jushou asked incomprehensibly, "What is the lord still thinking?"

Yuan Xi raised his head and glanced at Jushou, worrying: "Mister's strategy is good! It's just that the Qin army is so powerful and belongs to the tiger and wolf. I'm afraid...!"

Jushou couldn't help becoming anxious, feeling disappointed in Yuan Xi's heart. He had been reckless and wanted to attack several times before, but now he has become cringed after seeing Qin Jun's toughness. Ju Xie clasped his fist and said: "Don't worry, lord! Although the Qin army is strong in the field, but now it has fallen into a trap, the army is in turmoil, and the morale is not as good as before, and the enemy retreats from our army. With great vigor, I think that our army will be stronger than the enemy's under this situation! Moreover, our army's strength is stronger than the enemy's, and there will never be any mistakes in the pursuit of the army!"

After hearing Jushou's words, Yuan Xi couldn't help being confident, laughed, and praised: "Well said!" Then he said absolutely: "I have decided, the whole army will attack! See through the enemy!"
