Chapter 1418 Ferry(2/3)
Zhao Kai even took the initiative to take out the pictures from the prefect's mansion and point out the location for General Zhendong.
"Okay, okay!" General Zhendong slapped the table and ordered, "Liu Hun!"
"The last one will be here!"
"I will share your 1,500 men and go to Gujin Ferry (Qianli)."
"Here!"
"The bald hair stands tall."
"The last one will be here!"
"I will share your 1,500 people and go to Miyun Du (twelve miles)."
"Here!"
"When you wait for the two of you to arrive there, you must send scouts as soon as possible, but if you find that the thief army arrives, you will immediately repay it as quickly as possible."
General Zhendong looked at the two and ordered:
"If the bandit army has not arrived, or sees signals or receives military orders, they will immediately cross the water, go around to Baoqiu Cross, and kill the bandit army!"
"Here!"
General Zhendong looked at Zhao Guang and ordered:
"Zhao Guang, you lead two thousand troops to set up an ambush at Baoqiu Ferry in advance. I will lead the remaining troops to serve as the rear army and then set off."
Zhao Guang was excited and quickly stood up to agree.
General Zhendong looked at Zhao Kai:
"Zhao Fujun, before the army sets off, the soldiers need to rest here tonight, and wait until they have enough food and drink to have the strength to kill the thieves. I will have to worry about the food and grass in the army."
No mistakes, one song, one post, one content, one reading!
Zhao Kai hurriedly said:
"I dare not, I dare not, general, but please rest assured that in Yuyang City, a batch of food and grass will be transported to Jixian County recently. Now it is most suitable to reward the soldiers."
"That's the best," General Zhendong continued, "and the soldiers and the people in the city also need Zhao Fujun to help appease him."
"Since Emperor Zhaolie's rebellion, he has always treated the people with benevolence and righteousness. Now the Emperor of Han inherited Zhaolie's will and praised the world with benevolence and righteousness. As long as the people do not take the initiative to abide by the thief, they will all be regarded as their people."
"I will not lock down the city today, just to prevent anyone from sending letters to the thieves. Zhao Envoy will appease the people in the city and say that the seal will be lifted in the future so that the people will not need to panic."
When Zhao Kai heard this, he agreed repeatedly, and at the same time he felt relieved:
"Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, will do whatever you want."
As expected, it’s still easy to do things with the big man!
If it really happened to the fake Wei, it would be a massacre of the city.
——
At noon on the second day, the scorching sun was in the sky.
The water of Baoqiu reflects the sunshine, and the shimmering light is shining.
The Ferry River originally had a lookout for the Later Han Dynasty, but the military facilities in Youzhou were loose in recent years and had long been abandoned.
Fortunately, it did not collapse, and after some renovation, it could barely be used.
The watchtower was converted into a fisherman's drying net rack, with firewood piles piled up on it in disguise.
Dozens of crossbow snipers were hiding among the firewood piles, and the crossbow machine looked at the mountain and was close to the positioning line somewhere - this was the best shooting angle calculated by Pei Xiu.
"General, the thief should have arrived? There is no sign yet. Could it be that Zhao Kai was wrong? They didn't cross the water from here?"
At the lookout on the watchtower, Zhao Guang looked at the sky, then looked at the quiet opposite shore, and asked in a while.
General Zhendong put down the Qianli Miles Miles and said calmly: "What's the hurry? Arriving in the afternoon is just our estimate."
"The slower it comes, the more beneficial it will be for us to take Youzhou."
Because when the Yuyang Pass was in a hurry, Jixian reinforcements could not arrive in time. They were not trying to rescue them, but the troops could not arrive.
If the troops cannot arrive, the more the combat power is worrying.
The sun was westward, and the scout rushed back:
"General, the bandit army is less than three miles away from here."
"Okay, send the order to prepare everyone. Also, send a quick horse to inform Liu Hun and Tufa Tianli!"
"Here!"
Half an hour later, the Jixian reinforcements, who were chaotic and extremely thirsty, finally arrived at the edge of the ferry.
When everyone saw the river, they cheered.
When the vanguard light cavalry rushed into the ferry, there were still broken leaves that were marching in the gaps in the armor leaves.
Some soldiers were slumped on the river beach and gasped, while some uncle kicked the soldiers who were robbing water, but they fell into a mud pit.
More than ten war horses squeezed into the pier five feet wide to bite and tap, and one horse was even arched into the rapids. The arrow boxes tied on the horse's back spread out, and two thousand iron arrows floated on the water.
"Put it away, why don't you go and put it away!"
"Full team, whole team!"
The Wei generals riding on the horse held up their whips and whipped them down towards the soldiers.
Seeing Wei Jun in the Qianli Mirror, General Zhendong raised a contemptuous sneer on the corner of his mouth:
"The half-duty order is heard, and the central army will be stopped first."
General Zhendong inserted three whistle arrows into Zhao Guang's arrow bag, "Please look at the watchtower and find the flag of the letter to rush up."
Zhao Guang licked his lips, clasped his fists silently, and then quietly got off the lookout.
"Look at those who ride horses, your target is them."
This is what the crossbow snipers said.
After the Wei generals left no effort to beat him, the Wei army finally had a little formation.
The vanguard of the Wei army began to trek.
The Wei general riding on the horse saw a fisherman closing the net opposite, as if frightened by the arrival of the army, and panickedly wanted to close the net and leave.
Everything is normal.
There are still people fishing here, which means that nothing has happened in Yuyang yet.
Until halfway through the crowd, the East Coast Pier looked like an abandoned lookout that was used by fishermen to dry the nets, and suddenly a flag appeared.
Immediately afterwards, the shrill sound of whistling tore through the sky.
Dozens of crossbows shot out poisonous iron arrows at the same time. Several Wei generals were named directly. They didn't even see the enemy anywhere, and they were killed by arrows.
"kill!"
The horse's hooves were sounding like thunder, and red cavalry suddenly emerged from the reed marsh on both sides.
Zhao Guang took the lead and rushed straight to the Wei army's flag that had just crossed the river.
The Wei general standing under the flag was caught off guard and drew his sword hastily. Before he could draw it halfway, he was already chopped into two pieces by a sabre and a man and a slate.
The iron cavalry followed closely and rushed into the unprepared crowd, selecting the soldiers and generals and slaughtering them.
A soldier was dragged by a war horse for more than ten feet, and his intestines were wrapped around the horse's hooves and pulled out a terrifying path of blood.
A Wei Junshi had just touched the horn, and his throat was penetrated by a wolf-tooth arrow, and the blood foam sprayed out drew a three-foot red rainbow in the air.
The sudden incident caught everyone in the Wei army off guard.
After Zhao Guang broke through the enemy formation, someone shouted in a shrill voice:
"Enemy attack!"
When the frightened mount rolled in the blood wave, the Yuanrong Crossbow's cow tendon string was creaking like an evil ghost.
"Retreat! Retreat!"
The sudden death of the main general, the sudden disappearance of the flag, and the number of generals being killed, made the Wei army that had already passed by could not organize effective resistance.
Whether they want to do so or not, everyone is squeezed backwards.
The cowhide cables on the floating bridge whine before the breaking under heavy pressure. Some generals even pulled their clothes and pulled them over by dozens of hands behind them as soon as they stepped onto the wooden board.
The forehead was protected and rolled down on the river beach, and was stepped into a concave cake in a blink of an eye. The reflection was reflected in the purgatory of the earth - the three thousand defeated soldiers were tearing this life-saving bridge into a Shura field with blood foam flying everywhere.
Five or six soldiers followed the situation and climbed the fallen Jiangxiao as a meat mat. The last scene he saw was that the soldiers who were squeezed down from the bridge grabbed the wooden bamboo strips of the floating bridge, plowed ten blood ditches on the bamboo strips, and fell into the river.
At that time, he was still picking half of the armor leaf tightly.
When the last sound of the cowhide rope broke, the entire floating bridge twisted like a giant python, and more than 300 people were thrown into the air.
Then, like Jiaozi fell into the water, it fell into the water, stirring a bloody vortex in the heart of the river.
The intestines hanging on the broken bridge are rising and falling with the waves.
