Chapter 177: Earning Pioneers
Zhuge Xuan shook his head, drove away the messy thoughts, and then followed the Jianzhou Army. The one in front was also a senior executive of the Jianzhou Army. Following him is no worse than following Zhang Shuo. As long as you do well, you will not worry about not having any chance.
Chen Qiba didn't know Zhuge Xuan's thoughts later, so he rode all the way to Jiangkou Town and found Cheng Zhenbei and Bai Yong. This matter must be discussed with them.
When Cheng Zhenbei and Bai Yong saw Chen Qiba, they all agreed when Zhuge Xuan said this. Instead of waiting aimlessly, it would be better to lead them to attack and give them a surprise. The plan involved a lot of people, so Deng Qin was called to discuss it. The five people kept talking for half an hour before they decided the matter was almost the same, and all the details were not a big problem.
When they came, there were only Chen Qiba and Zhuge Xuan. When they returned, they brought Deng Qin's two thousand men and had to cooperate with them. Zhang Shuo in the city had more than 4,000 men, which was basically the same as Chen Qiba's staff who kept the besieged city. They were all pulled out to act. If Zhang Shuo really came out, it would be funny.
Although Chen Qiba believes that Zhang Shuo does not have the courage to do so, it is not ruled out that others are crazy. Smart people are often easier to grasp, while people like Zhang Shuo are sometimes elusive.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Shuo heard something was going on under the city and rushed to the top of the city. Sure enough, there was a smoky mess, and there was a lot of noise. Dozens of elite cavalrymen were in front, dragging huge branches behind. Even the soldiers behind each had a branch, each running towards Jiangkou Town while sweeping the floor. Behind the team, a big banner with a swaying in the wind, was seized when defeating Zhang Hansi by the Jinjiang River. It was also used as a stretcher, but now it has come in new use.
"Made, what are you doing?" As the wind blew, dust flew directly to the top of the city. Zhang Shuo quickly covered his mouth and nose with his sleeve. These people were too unaware of environmental protection.
"This is probably to lead us out of the city. Major General, please see. The people who were left here were about 1,000. If we want to break through now, we still have a chance." The personal soldiers looked down. There were nearly 2,000 people from the east gate and the north gate, but now there are obviously a few hundred fewer. If they decide to break through, four thousand people will be able to fight against a thousand outside the city, even if the other party has a good geographical advantage, it is enough to win. The premise is to be fast and people from other sects cannot come here.
"No, the other party must have a backup plan, just wait for us to go out. Don't think about why the other party is doing well to withdraw people? Maybe there is an ambush, just wait for us to go out. This general doesn't go anywhere now, just defend it. When the Zhangwu army comes, and handing the city intact to the other party is a great achievement." Zhang Shuo looked at the arrow tower. Zhuge Xuan was no longer there, maybe he was dead, afraid of being rotten on the arrow tower and being pulled to bury it. Zhang Shuo still has some feelings for this military advisor, but it is not as important as his own life.
Zhang Shuo had no idea that he missed the last chance to break through perfectly. From tomorrow on, he could only be trapped in Putian County and would not move at all.
Qian Renjun was on the high platform by the river, staring at the direction of Jiangkou Town. Because of the wind, he could only see some smoke and dust rising behind Jiangkou Town, and did not know the specific matter. The pioneer general You Jinan personally took people to the mountain to check, but he didn't know what the situation was.
"General, the opponent is going to fight. Let's send troops quickly." You Jinan stood at the top of the mountain and saw a big banner with his hand across the river, waving in the wind, and was rushing towards Jiangkou Town. Jiangkou Town is OK
As if there was some surprise, the personnel were being mobilized and headed towards the back, trying to block the other party outside the town and prevent them from destroying the defense line along the river. You Jinan felt that this was a good opportunity, and you had to take advantage of the current situation when crossing the river. If the people who came out of the city were destroyed, it would be too late.
"Wait a little longer, let's talk about it." Qian Renjun hesitated for a moment. Although this was discussed with the military advisor in advance, they didn't know the specific situation, so they should take a look.
When You Jinan ran up the mountain, he saw that the vanguard troops on both sides had already been fighting in a ball, smoke and dust were everywhere, and the specific situation was hard to see clearly. Anyway, it seemed very fierce. The sound of the dong dong drum kept ringing, and You Jinan felt that his blood was pouring out, and his military achievements were right in front of him. How could he miss it?
"General, the war on the other side has begun, and the opportunity must not be missed. Please give an order." You Jinan walked to Qian Renjun and knelt on one knee. He needed this military merit.
"Okay, cross the river immediately. General You took the lead. I will lead the army to follow." Qian Renjun nodded. Now this matter is already on the string and has to be fired.
You Jinan stood up to take the order and personally led his men to arrange the pontoon bridge.
The two people acting later were Chen Qiba and Cheng Zhenbei. They did this as a true performance and there was no need for previews. Even Bai Yong thought it was a real fight. As for Zhang Shuo on the wall of Putian County, he insisted that it was acting and lied to him out. No matter what others said, he was still unmoved.
As soon as the enemy entered the range, Bai Yong ordered the shooting, but he deliberately slowed down the rhythm, and only a small half of the powerful crossbow was shooting. You Jinan, who was organizing the crossing of the river in the rear, felt even more relieved because he was afraid that the other party would not attack. Now the rhythm is obviously not enough to have enough energy.
"Quick, hurry up!" You Jinan urged from the rear and advanced in an orderly manner towards the front.
"Personnel Bai, it's time to take action." Deng Qin looked at the other party's boat. It was less than twenty feet away from the river bank. Bai Yong was still slowly commanding the arrows, without any haste.
"Person Deng, we are not trying to scare the other party. We want to annihilate the other party's troops and minimize the opponent's strength. So, let them come over, at least a few thousand people have to come in." Bai Yong was not anxious. If he was exposed now, the other party would lose at most a few hundred people, and would not hurt his bones at all. All he wanted was to hurt the other party and let them not worry about the matter in Quanzhou.
You Jinan's vanguard battalion has begun to land one after another and has engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the four defensive regiments. The soldiers of the four regiments who were told in advance are fighting and retreating, just trying to kill the enemy, and it doesn't matter if they lose some places. As for giving up the place for nothing, it doesn't exist, and the other party is not a fool.
When You Jinan saw that his soldiers had paid a considerable price, he had already stood firm on the other side's shore and couldn't wait to bring his personal soldiers to cross the river. As for Qian Renjun's army, he was confident that he would definitely keep up.
Bai Yong saw You Jinan going to the floating bridge, greeted Deng Qin and told him to tell the two treasures behind that the play was almost done and it was time to prepare for the battle. You Jinan's armor was particularly obvious in the sun, and he was definitely a senior general. As for whether he was a military governor, I don't know.
"Where is the big fish?" Chen Qiba led people to come and found Bai Yong first and saw where the big fish was. He wanted to kill him, but that would be a great achievement.
"Bahu, this, rely on your ability later, don't think I will give in to you." Cheng Zhenbei also wants to make contributions. His sister Xiaoya's dowry has not been collected yet, and there is also the money for Miss Lanxiang to redeem herself. Oh, here
It costs money everywhere.
"Whoever wants you to give in, we will fight each other in a while, and whoever wins it will be the one who wins it." Bahu didn't give in, he wanted to win with his real ability.
"Okay, don't worry, two of you. After a while, Brother Cheng, you lead people to penetrate the floating bridge from the south, and Brother Bahu leads people to penetrate the north. Captain Deng, you lead people to kill in from the middle. Let's cut these people into four pieces, and then cut off their retreat. All of these thousands of people will be eaten." Bai Yong stared at the enemy in front and said hatefully. If these thousands of elite soldiers were killed, the Zhangwu army would definitely be in pain for a long time.
The three nodded and took the orders and left. Deng Qin, the one with the least pressure on combat was the shortest distance he needed to intersperse, but he had the greatest psychological pressure. This was his first time participating in a war.
"Dong!Dong!Dong!" A series of rapid war drums sounded. You Jinan, who had just got off the floating bridge, looked up and the other party organized people to launch a counterattack on his side. As You Jinan expected, if the other party wanted to defeat him, the best way was to block the floating bridge and prevent the soldiers behind him from landing. But it was too late now. He personally brought more than 3,000 elite soldiers here, so how could you block it?
A quarter of an hour later, You Jinan found something was wrong. No matter how he dispatched his troops, the other party always advanced towards him in an orderly manner, especially the fastest one coming from the south.
"Let's go, follow me!" You Jinan, with his elite personal soldiers, rushed towards Lao Cheng who came over there, preparing to defeat each other. You Jinan held the knife in both hands, flashed from behind the heavy armored infantry, and slashed towards Lao Cheng. Lao Cheng, who was so excited about killing, was shocked and blocked a big axe, but he almost couldn't control it. The person coming was not weak.
Old Cheng was polite to chop with a big axe. You Jinan couldn't dodge, and the big axe rubbed the edge of the armor. You Jinan retreated two pieces and looked at his armor. He was cut off. This big axe was really terrifying.
"Brothers, come here!" Old Cheng looked carefully and said, "Haha, it was the big fish. He was not staying on the pontoon bridge, but he actually came to him. How could he let go of such a good thing?
You Jinan was depressed. He originally wanted to defeat each one, but now he was stuck with Lao Cheng. Wherever he retreated, Lao Cheng would follow him. Now his vanguard battalion has lost effective command and can only count on the Jiedushi to go ashore quickly. Now You Jinan is a moving treasure house in Cheng Zhenbei's eyes. No matter where he escapes, he will not be able to get rid of himself.
"Transfer, all the crossbows, aim at the floating bridge and shoot freely!" Bai Yong saw that almost five thousand people had landed, and then let people over, maybe he would burst his teeth, almost.
The soldiers of the Zhangwu Army who were walking on the pontoon bridge were immediately in a dilemma. The feather arrows covered the sky and the sun were coming. When they walked forward on the pontoon bridge, they could not even retreat even if they were waiting to die.
"Hurry, build a shield and cross the river at any cost!" Qian Renjun knew that something was wrong when he saw this posture. The other party clearly had intentional before, and the purpose was to eat his vanguard. The shield players on the shore began to walk towards the pontoon bridge, and they could resist the other party's arrows.
"Are you..." You Jinan turned his body hard. Just now, he was hit on the back by this man, and his internal organs were moved. He probably wouldn't survive today.
