Chapter 45: The Legendary Reality
Chapter 45 The Legendary Truth
Whether it is the battle report in Wang Dafu's hands or the historical records of "Life" later, the process of the finale of the "Jiangzhou Battle" is very simple.
In May of the sixth year of Qiyuan, Yang Xuyan, the great emperor of the Sui Shang Empire, led his troops to evacuate voluntarily, and Li Jiancheng, the prince of the Tangfeng Empire, led his troops to take over the Jiangzhou Prefecture City without blood and settle in it.
That night, an inexplicable epidemic broke out in the rebels in Tang Fengping, and more than 70% of the soldiers had diarrhea. The top leaders of the army, such as Li Jiancheng, the prince of the Supervisor, Xue Wanche, the blood-handed general, and Dugu Xian, the rookie of Dugu family, were all bedridden!
In the early morning of the next day, the army led by Sui Shangyiren organized by the "Fanhua" to rest, rush to Jiangzhou Prefecture City and carried out a complete counter-encirclement. This was the first milestone battle in the history of life to fully siege NPCs. However, because the Yiren lacked siege equipment and the Tang Feng army was greatly damaged due to the epidemic, the two sides did not have a conflict for a while.
At noon, the "Fanhua" army suddenly beat drums to boost momentum. The Tang Feng army thought it was about to start siege, and a small-scale chaos occurred. Yang Xuyan, the originally missing Sui Shang Empire, suddenly appeared and attacked the Jiangzhou City Lord's Mansion alone, capturing Li Jiancheng, the prince of the Tang Feng Supervisor who was ill in bed.
In the afternoon, Li Jiancheng ordered all soldiers of Tang Feng to put down their weapons and open the city to surrender. The "Fanhua" player army went to the city without blood, capturing a total of 17,000 Tang Feng's rebels in one fell swoop. At this point, the "Jiangzhou Battle" officially ended with the complete defeat of Tang Feng's rebels.
Compared with these processes recorded on paper, the actual finale of the "Jiangzhou Battle"... is actually not complicated. The basic process is not much different from this record. There are only a few "small details" that have not been recorded or are not very accurate.
First of all, Yang Xuyan and his group nominally "mysteriously evacuated" Jiangzhou Prefecture City, but in fact they did not leave! In fact, long before Xue Wanche and Huang Zhong's light cavalry rushed to Jiangzhou Prefecture, the four thousand elite soldiers under Yang Xuyan had already "Uncle Hua" in Yang Xuyan's mouth. That is, the most legendary female general in Chinese history, left the city to carry out other tasks. He stayed in Jiangzhou Prefecture City and was surrounded by Xue Wanche and Huang Zhong were actually disguised by the players of "Fanhua". They didn't go there that night, but they were just off the line. As for Yang Xuyan, Li Liang and a few NPC generals... the huge Jiangzhou Prefecture City, it seems that it is not difficult to hide a few people, right?
Secondly, I believe many people have guessed that the so-called "epidemic" of the Tang Feng Army that night was actually just the move of Yang Xuyan and the others. As early as when they were surrounded, Yang Xuyan and the others had designed a mechanism on all the well walls of Jiangzhou Prefecture City, and stored a large amount of laxatives in it. When all the Tang Feng Army entered the city and arranged it properly, the players secretly launched all mechanisms. As a result, Tang Feng Army was indeed hit, and more than 70% of the soldiers lost their combat effectiveness at once. More importantly, all the main generals were hit and forced to bed and unable to take charge of military affairs. This strategy is very simple, but the effect is very obvious. If not for this, even if there were four thousand strange soldiers secretly helping. The "Fanhua" player army wanted to take the Tang Feng Army to defend Jiangzhou Prefecture City, they would probably have to pay a heavy price!
This is the legendary "bloodless attack and defense battle in Jiangzhou Prefecture City". This battle started with Xue Wanche and Huang Zhong's light cavalry raiding Jiangzhou Prefecture City during the entire battle. Until Li Jiancheng ordered the surrender and the "Fanhua" army went down to the city without blood. No one was killed in the entire battle, and no one was injured. There was no trace of blood at all, so it was praised by the world as a "bloodless battle"! (In fact, basically there was no war, and it was difficult to see blood...)
This battle and the "weird battle" that happened on the Jiangzhou Plain before, "a variety of inexplicable and even ridiculous events from beginning to end" are complementary and called Yuliang. It achieved the reputation of "the first wise player" in one fell swoop to understand history, and at the same time it also made Jiangzhou Fucheng very embarrassed to get a nickname "stinky city". (More than 10,000 people ran all night at the same time, think about the taste of Jiangzhou Fucheng at that time...a remnant~~)
Most rumors in the world are spreading. Although there is almost no blood in the "Jiangzhou Prefecture City Attack and Defense War", it is not the first day of absolutely "bloodless". When Li Liang, a general under Yang Xuyan and one of the "Sui Shangshuang Double Walls", fought against Huang Zhong, the "Three Kingdoms Arrow God" in Green Willow City, Huang Zhong once showed his unique skills and directly killed four generals under Li Liang with very good martial arts.
Unfortunately, in order to "cooperate" to appreciate the image of "the first wise player" in history, considering that the statement "micro-blooded battle" seems to be far less pleasant than "bloodless battle", and there is no legend of "bloodless battle". As a result, the only victims of "Jiangzhou Fucheng offensive and defensive battle" who "has good martial arts" were forgotten by the world...
People in the world do not start with this, nor will they stop at the second, but rumors stop at the wise, and there are many people who disdain the so-called "bloodless battle". However, whether it is "bloodless" or "bloodless", there seems to be no substantial difference from a military perspective, so no one comes out to "picture" or "anti-counterfeiting"
Such boring things can be left to later generations for "brick gimmickers" to make a living. Anyway, in their eyes, Yue Fei and Ran Min can become historical sinners who "destroy stability and unity and destroy ethnic relations". Let's study whether the "bloodless battle" in the "game" is really "bloodless" and isn't it just right for them to play!
The real gaze of those "wise" and "strong" is not about whether the "Jiangzhou Prefecture Offensive War" is really "bloodless". Instead, the third battle besides the "Jiangzhou Plain Encirclement and Annihilation Battle" in the Jiangzhou area while the "Fanhua" army surrounded Jiangzhou City. The third battle, besides the "Jiangzhou Plain Encirclement and Annihilation Battle" and the "Jiangzhou City Attack and Defense Battle" is also the most easily overlooked in the eyes of ordinary people... "Jiangzhou Ancient Road Pursuit Battle"!
Regardless of whether the reputation of "bloodless" is worthy of its reputation, the "Jiangzhou Fucheng offensive and defensive battle" is definitely a very rare "peaceful battle", which is the most picky expert, and cannot deny it! But ironically, almost at the same time as this "rare peace battle in history", a extremely fierce "bloody battle" broke out near Jiangzhou Fucheng, which made those who like to use the "bloodless Jiangzhou Fucheng offensive and defensive battle" as an example to advocate "peace" has always been quite embarrassing; it also made people understand that "purity" and "cleanness" cannot exist in war, and the reputation of "wise" and "strong" is often based on a sea of blood!
Perhaps it is precisely because the "Jiangzhou Fucheng offensive and defensive battle" is too "pure" and "clean", that the "Jiangzhou Ancient Road Pursuit War" that broke out at the same time becomes particularly "tragic" and "bloody"...
If you have to add an adjective to all the battles in the "Jiangzhou Battle", then unlike "weird" and "bloodless", the only adjective that can be used in "Jiangzhou Ancient Road Pursuit War" is "tragic"!
Or there is another one, that is... "bloody".
Have you ever seen a brave knight turn over and fall off the horse, and then be trampled into meat sauce by the army chasing him, and you can't see any human form? Have you ever seen a fearless warrior watch him get pierced by an arrow and then blown into pieces, and the bursting pieces of meat shot his comrades around him into sieves, and blood flowing all over the ground? Have you ever seen a strong warrior rush into the enemy formation without fear of death, and be slashed by the enemy by slashing through each of the enemy into a pile of rotten meat and skeletons, but still holding a broken steel knife to split the last enemy's head?
This is the "Jiangzhou Ancient Road Pursuit Battle". The two sides participated in the war, but less than 300 people survived after the war, and none of the dead had all the bodies. It was also the "first military advisor of the player" Jiuyouhou who made his mark. It was this battle that gave the entire "Jiangzhou Battle" a hint of "peak duel"...
Among the relevant documents of "Life", there are only a few records about the "Jiangzhou Ancient Road Pursuit War".
When the "Fanhua" players surrounded Jiangzhou Prefecture City, Huang Zhong, the troops of Green Willow City, who were ordered to track Yang Xuyan and his party, encountered the troops of Mulan in the Sui Shang Empire, who were cruising near Jiangzhou Prefecture City, and Zhang Xutuo, who came out of the mountain to urgently provide assistance after hearing the news. Han Qinhu, and Shi Wansui's three troops had a total of 15,000 elite border troops of the Sui Shang Empire. The two sides fought for more than 170 miles along the ancient road of Jiangzhou. In the end, only the main general Huang Zhong and Yiren Jiuyou Hou survived. Shi Wansui, the general of Sui Shang, died in battle. Zhang Xutuo was seriously injured, and only 327 soldiers survived.
From the perspective of ordinary people, the "Jiangzhou Ancient Road Pursuit" is just a simple encounter, with only about 10,000 casualties. It seems that there is really no gimmick worth hyping except for the courage and fighting spirit of both sides participating in the war!
But... 5,000 people rushed to fight for more than 170 miles, and killed four times their enemies. What kind of command and coordination ability is this? How subtle is the grasp of the details of the battlefield? How powerful and harmonious is the control of the troops?
