The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

Yang Hong pointed to the outside of the city and said: "General, please see, unlike the previous day, the thieves who attacked my camp outside the city today are less than two or three thousand. Yesterday's reinforcements from the thieves, the thieves army can be considered to be out of the nest. Because I concluded that the thief camp is definitely empty now!"

Ji Ling carefully discerned it and found that, as Yang Hong said, the two enemy troops who attacked the outer battalion of the city and arrayed in the west of the city together had about 4,000 people. Immediately, he was in high spirits and said, "Okay! Then, according to the long history's strategy of besieging Wei and saving Zhao, I will personally lead the troops to attack the bandit camp!"

"As long as the general can quickly pull his battalion, I will lead the elite soldiers in the city, and let all the soldiers in the camp outside the city come out and attack him! If you attack the general twice, you will win this battle!" Yang Hong He pressed the sword on his waist and said.

There were more than 3,000 guards in the city, so he left half of them to Yang Hong, while Ji Ling personally led more than 1,500 soldiers out of the east gate of the city to attack the Wenpin and Yujing military camps four or five miles east of the city. In order to prevent the enemy in the west of the city from chasing, Yang Hong also dispatched more than a hundred cavalry in the city and arranged them at the north gate of the city.

But Ji Ling led the troops out of the city, and rushed to Wenpin and Yujing camp, only four or five miles away in total, and soon the camp was in sight.

Ji Ling sat high on the horse, raised his eyes to look at it, and saw that the camp was quiet and there was no sound. Immediately, he became more energetic, and said with great joy: "The long historical data is correct! The thief camp is empty!" "Speed ​​up and kill with me."

Approaching the Wenping and Yujing military camps, all of a sudden, drums and horns in the camp sounded, and dozens of flags of various colors were erected on the camp wall at the same time. Surrounded by Yu Jiashi, the generals boarded the Yuanmen.

This will laugh and say: "I expected you to attack the camp for a long time, but I have been waiting for you for a long time! Don't run away, and wait for me to leave the camp and fight with you."

The guards on the camp wall said in unison, repeating what the general said to Ji Ling and his troops.

Ji Ling couldn't hear the general's words, but the guards of the city wall repeated in unison, but Ji Ling could hear them.

The voice was in his ears, Ji Ling secretly said that it was not good, his expression changed immediately, he hurriedly reined in his horse, and said to the left and right: "Oh! The thief is prepared?"

Looking anxiously to the left and right, in the distance to the left and right, a vague banner was fluttering, and there was also the sound of drum horns.

One of Ji Ling's servants shouted in panic, "There are soldiers in ambush!"

The sound of drum horns in the camp turned into agitation, Ji Ling and the others turned to look at them and saw that the gate was slowly opening, as if soldiers and horses were about to come out.

Although Ji Ling is brave, at this time, why does he still have the intention of attacking the civil service and Yu Jinying again? He made a decisive decision, turned the horse around, and passed on a series of orders, telling the soldiers to quickly turn back the same way and withdraw to the city.

The arrows on the camp head have arrived.

Fortunately, apart from a few of the soldiers that Ji Ling had assigned to him, the rest were all the old troops he had commanded for a long time. At the critical moment, he was still able to give orders from him, but there was no great panic. Was able to reverse the direction of the march.

The gate opened wide, and the sound of shouts was carried by the wind, and the soldiers of the battalion swarmed out.

While constantly taking care of the queen, Ji Ling led the troops and hurriedly returned to Luyang County.

Finally, there was no danger, and he fled back to the city in embarrassment.

Yang Hong heard the news that the city gate had been opened.

Ji Ling led his troops back into the city and told the soldiers to rest on the spot and go up to the city.

Seeing Yang Hong, he was furious and said: "Changshi! But the thieves are already prepared in the camp, and they have set up an ambush outside the camp. If I didn't retreat quickly, I'm afraid I would have been defeated!

"He looked up at his own camp in the west of the city and asked, "How is the camp outside the city?" Can you keep it? "

But I saw that the camp in the west of the city was already ablaze with fire, and black smoke rose into the sky. The camp wall was no longer just two small pieces, but two large pieces. The soldiers of Wenpin and Yu Jinbu It has already rushed into the camp, and the shouting of killing can be heard from the top of the city.

There was no need for Yang Hong to answer, Ji Ling also knew that the camp outside the city couldn't hold it any longer.

"How can this be good?" Ji Ling looked at Yang Hong.

Yang Hong was also helpless at this time. He showed a dazed state and said suspiciously: "It's strange! Most of the soldiers and horses in the clerical recruitment and the forbidden place have clearly been dispatched. Where are the ambush soldiers in the camp?"

In fact, most of the soldiers in the ambush in the forbidden camp and outside the camp were bluffing by the civilians. When Wenpin and others discussed today's attack yesterday, Wenpin proposed a possibility, he said to Yu Jin and Han Ji: "Yang Hong has a strategy, when our army attacks his camp outside the city, he may send troops to attack our camp. , you must not be unprepared for this." The three then decided on this bluff.

But he said, before Wenpin and Yujian, had they tried twice to lure the enemy out of the city? Then since Wen Pin guessed that Yang Hong might send troops to attack the barracks, why not ambush the troops outside the barracks? In this way, when the defenders come to attack the battalion, won't their strategy of "lure the enemy out of the city" finally be realized? The reason is also very simple. Although Wen Pin guessed this point, he was not sure that Yang Hong would really send troops to attack their camp. Therefore, compared with the two, it was better to concentrate on attacking his camp outside the city first. Best policy.

- In fact, if it wasn't for Wen Ping and Yu Jin to attack the camp outside the city with all their strength, and Yang Hong saw that their main force was out, Yang Hong would not have adopted this strategy of besieging Wei and saving Zhao.

As a result, Ji Ling did not have Yang Hong's ingenuity and misunderstood that he was in an ambush, which made Yang Hong's strategy a complete failure.

After such a delay, even at the risk of falling into a field battle, it would be too late to send troops to the camp outside the city. Yang Hong and Ji Ling could only watch their camp outside the city being captured by the civilians and Yujingsuo.

Once the camp outside the city was lost, there were no longer any friendly troops outside the city, and the pressure in the city immediately increased.

Even Yang Hong and Ji Ling, the two main generals, had a heavy heart because of this, not to mention the other soldiers.

Originally, because of what Yuan Shu had done to move westward into Chang'an, the hearts of the Luyang garrison fluctuated. It was thanks to the various encouragement measures taken after Yang Hong's arrival that the garrison had held on until now. Turning into a sea of ​​fire, at this moment, the morale of the soldiers in the whole city, which was finally aroused by Yang Hong, was weakened again, or their fighting spirit was depressed, or even panic.

…

After a day off, Wen Ping and Yu Jin rectified their troops and began to launch a fierce attack on Luyang County.

A dozen or twenty catapults threw rolling stones, and the city walls swayed. The arrows were like dark clouds, covering the city head, and there were constantly dense rockets mixed with them. The entire Luyang County seems to be shrouded in torrential rain with dark clouds and thunder and lightning.

Not only the city walls and the city head were destroyed all the time, the gravel splashed, and the houses in the city were also smashed by stones. The screams of wounded soldiers and civilians continued throughout the city.

At this time, if you look down at it in midair, you can see that there is mourning everywhere, no matter at the top of the city, or in the alleys of the residential houses in the city, and the dead and wounded are lying on the ground.

Around noon, taking advantage of the fact that Wenpin and Yujin were temporarily sieging the city and the soldiers were eating, Ji Ling patrolled the city, found Yang Hong, and said worriedly: "Changshi, the situation is very bad! The common people have suffered a lot of casualties. I just took a look around, and many of the soldiers were pale and horrified. If this goes on, the morale will collapse!"

It has been four or five days since he has been defending the city. Yang Hong lives and eats at the head of the city. His hair is messy and his clothes are in a mess.

His clothes were dirty, his eyes were bloodshot, and his expression was haggard, but his spirit was still lifted. He glanced at the siege enemy soldiers who had just retreated from the nearby city and were scattered in the distance to eat, and his eyes fell on the parked On the catapults around the city, he said, "There are two strategies available now."

"Dare to ask Chang Shi, what are the two strategies?"

Yang Hong pointed to the catapults outside the city, and said, "Send the daring men to take advantage of the thief army's withdrawal to eat, and hang down from the city head to destroy these catapults. This is a good strategy. "

Ji Ling was surprised and said: "Chang Shi, this strategy is probably difficult to implement."

Although the catapult is made of wood, like the ladder, the wood is fire-resistant. If you want to destroy it, the first one will be difficult to burn with fire. If you don't use fire, you can use an ax or something to chop it. , the catapults are tall and strong, then the next one is obviously more difficult to do. And even though the enemy who attacked the city retreated to eat, there was still a guard force around the catapult. All in all, it is basically impossible to destroy the catapult.

Yang Hong took his eyes back to the city and looked far and near. As Ji Ling said, many guards were injured. Some had broken arms, some legs were broken, and some were hit by stones on their heads or chest and abdomen. Flesh and bloody, and even tragically dead, teams of civilians are carrying the dead and wounded down. The sound of moaning and whistling came one after another. Looking at the various scenes, the miserable words are not enough to describe.

Yang Hong said: "Then there is only one way left."

"Dare to ask Chang Shi, what can I do?"

Yang Hong said: "It is strictly controlled by military discipline."

"Is it strict with military discipline?"

Yang Hong said: "Use you and me to form a supervising team to patrol the city head. Anyone who has a wave of fighting spirit will be killed. When the enemy attaches to the city to attack, and dares to look back or retreat, he will also be killed on the spot. As for the city. If there are rioters, scholars and people, they will also be killed."

Ji Ling sucked in a breath of cold air and said, "Do this? Long history, UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com is not afraid of provoking mutiny and civil revolt?"

Yang Hong gritted his teeth and said, "Don't you hear that the law of warfare says, 'Humen and people have nothing to fear, they fear me and insult the enemy, and the enemy insults me'? At this time, only severe punishments can make people fear me. Only then can we make everyone not afraid of the enemy! Only Luyang City can be defended!" He asked Ji Ling, "Or does the general have any other good strategies?"

Ji Ling had no idea, he hesitated for a while, and said, "Changshi, when will the reinforcements from General Right arrive?"

Yang Hong didn't know either, but he didn't hesitate to answer immediately and said, "How could the right general not know the importance of Lu Yang? I expect that reinforcements must be on their way to help Lu Yang, three or four days as early as possible, and then later. It will come in ten days.”

"Okay, then follow the long history policy!"

The two chose their own soldiers and formed more than ten teams to supervise the battle. A minority patrolled the city, and most of them were ordered to patrol the front of the city. As long as they found that the fighting spirit of the soldiers was shaken, they did not need to ask for orders, and they could kill them immediately.

Severe punishment alone is obviously not enough. If it is severe to a certain extent, Ji Ling's worries may arise, leading to a mutiny. Yang Hong knows the principle of combining toughness with softness. All the silk goods and other things were moved to the city head. Ji Ling had been stationed in Luyang for a long time, and settled down here. There were beautiful concubines and maids in his home. Yang Hong also asked Ji Ling to take his concubines. , and the maids are also brought to the city, with gold, silk, and beautiful women as rewards and rewards for the soldiers.

The two-pronged approach helped to stabilize the morale of the defenders.

Because the camp outside the city had already been captured, and with the help of the hair stone chariot brought by Han Ji, Wen Ping and Yu Jin commanded the troops to attack the city for another day, but Lu Yang was still unable to overcome.
