Chapter 2017 General Xing Daorong
When you were on the list of the gold medals, you met an old friend in a foreign land.
This environment makes people feel very friendly to meet friendly forces.
Wang Ling and a group of generals met with Chen Xiazi and said excitedly: "Teacher Chen, you came so timely. If you hadn't shouted that way, this battle would probably not have ended at dawn."
The Han army was not weak in combat. Their captives were not armored or weapons. At first, they took advantage of the Han army's unpreparedness. When the Han army reacted, they fell into a hard battle. If Blind Chen had not arrived in time, even if they could win in the end, it would have been a situation of heavy casualties. Therefore, Wang Ling was grateful to Blind Chen from the bottom of his heart.
Although Chen Xiaozi didn't give out any power, his appearance had a great impact on the morale of both sides. The Han army didn't even dare to fight, so they were scared away directly.
Chen Xiaozi smiled and said, "Fortunately, I caught up, otherwise I wouldn't be able to explain to His Majesty when I go back."
Wang Ling stroked his beard and said, "Do you dare to ask how many people Commander Chen has brought here?"
The number of opponents determines the follow-up plan. If all the members of the mountain division arrive, why would he run away from Jiangxia? He directly crosses the river and pokes the big-eared thief's butt, and attacks Cao Cao forward and back and forth to completely eliminate the main force of the Han army.
The mountain master is elite and well-equipped.
Chen Xiaozi smiled and said, "The Han army blocked too tightly and had too many troops to cross the blockade line quietly, so Your Majesty ordered me to come and call everyone to raise trouble and harass the rear of the Han army."
He was just here to rescue Hu San and didn't intend to care about others, but he couldn't say that. Many soldiers were around. To be honest, what did Wang Ling and the soldiers think? If they were angry, they would be over.
You should not be too honest in being a person. You have to cheat if you should. No, this is called a lie with kindness.
When Wang Ling learned that Chen had only brought about a hundred or so people, he instantly lost his interest in talking with him. He responded casually and turned around and shouted: "Cleaning the battlefield, searching for food and starting to cook, so that everyone can have a good meal. All the medical soldiers gather to find medicine to treat the wounded, hurry up."
Wang Ling is a military officer and is best at handling logistics matters. He quickly arranged things in an orderly manner. Then he said to Chen Xiaozi: "There are more than 40,000 prisoners of war camp. If you cross the river, you need to build a large number of ships. It is too delayed. For a long time, it will easily cause the main force of the Han army to fight back. Secondly, we don't have that much food to insist on, so if we want to bring these 40,000 people back to Jiangbei, I can only find another way. I decided to attack Jingling Shaxian to the east and build ships in Shaxian to attack Xiling. Is Commander Chen interested? "
Xiling is the capital of Jiangxia County, and if it can achieve a great achievement.
Chen Xiaozi was a little moved, and frowned and said, "But there is no military order to act without permission..." As long as the prisoners in the prisoner camp do not surrender, Cao Cao will only reward and not punish anything out of the ordinary. It is better to be taken to Kushan obediently.
But blind man Chen is different. He has military orders and is easily caught by those who are interested in acting without permission.
Wang Ling knew what he was worried about and said, "I personally drafted the memorial. Just sign it. At the same time, I sent someone to rush to the main camp and ask Your Majesty to send someone to help us."
Chen Xiazi nodded and said, "Yes, I'll ask Jiang Yan to go back and deliver the letter in person."
The next thing was easy to deal with. Wang Ling distributed a group of troops to guard the surroundings to prevent the Han army from returning, while the others would eat and sleep and set off when dawn.
The prisoner was controlled by the Han army and was hungry for too long. He suddenly had enough food and was not very adaptable. In addition, he was exhausted all night and was unwise to travel in the middle of the night. It was not too late to maintain his energy and act.
The prisoner-of-war camp did not have much food, only enough for 40,000 troops to eat for three days. Jingling must be taken down within three days, otherwise there is a risk of food being cut off.
At dawn, Wang Ling led a 40,000 army and all the supplies in the camp to set off quickly and headed straight for Jingling.
The 40,000 troops were all elite troops of the Wei army, and the quality of the troops was beyond words. The only regret was that they were not equipped enough, with less than two thousand sets, all of which were defective products taken from the Han army.
In a big battle last night, the Wei army killed more than a thousand Han soldiers, and the rest of the Han soldiers ran away, and they did not dare to chase them. Even if they were all left, their equipment was far from enough. Who made too many prisoners?
The attack on Jingling was probably the poorest battle that the Wei army fought in the past decade. The equipment was so scarce that it was not even as good as the Yellow Turban thieves of that year.
Despite this, Wang Ling still had no complaints.
Good fortune is hidden by misfortune, and misfortune depends on good fortune.
There were too many famous generals of the Wei army. If it weren't for being captured, Wang Ling would probably have never had the opportunity to lead 40,000 to 50,000 elite troops alone in his life. He knew in his heart that even if he couldn't take Xiling, it would be a great achievement to bring these tens of thousands of people back.
The army advanced at full speed. When passing an unknown hill, a Taoist nun appeared on the top of the mountain, which was Lu Lingqi.
Lu Lingqi stood in front of the Taoist temple gate on the top of the mountain and looked at the army lined up in long lines and sighed: "Fight every day, fight every year, when will this damn battle be completed?"
Wang Ling didn't see her, and probably didn't bother to pay attention to her when she saw it. She led the army to move quickly and successfully arrived at Jingling City at around 4 pm.
What surprised the Wei generals was that tens of thousands of Wei soldiers were at the city, and the generals of Jingling did not close the city gate and fully alert, but instead led more than 2,000 people out of the city.
Two thousand to forty thousand, who gives this guy confidence?
Wang Ling and his party looked at each other and were confused. Before they could figure out what was going on, a middle-aged man in the enemy formation, wearing Mingguang armor and holding Xuanhua axe, rushed out of the formation by horse, holding a loudspeaker, shouting to the side: "I am Xing Daorong, General Lingling, and I am ordered by my emperor to guard Jingling. Who is not afraid of death to come up to fight me?"
"General Lingling Xing Daorong?"
Wang Ling frowned and said, "Who have you heard of this person?"
Chen, the blind man, Hu San and others shook their heads together, saying that they didn't know.
Wang Ling picked up the telescope and looked at it carefully, and smiled bitterly: "It seems that he is a powerful general."
This person is tall and burly. At first glance, he is a powerful general like Guan Zhang Xu Dian. His skills are probably not low. If he had not had absolute confidence, how dare he lead just two thousand people out of the city?
Wang Ling really wanted to order the army to rush forward and use the sea of people to flood the opponent, but he didn't dare.
Their equipment is too poor, not to mention heavy shields that are taller than people, there are not even many wooden round shields. They have crossbows and rifles in their hands. They can take countless things away with a rain of arrows, not to mention that there are artillery in the city.
What should they do after the Han army fired the crossbow and turned back to the city? If they chased after the Wei army, who had been trekking for a long distance, wouldn't it be useless to not chase the arrow rain?
After thinking about it, Wang Lingsi decided to accept Xing Daorong's challenge. Who is afraid of whom? If he wins, the morale of the opponent's army will inevitably surge. The benefits for the subsequent war are immeasurable. It is nothing to lose. Just think that the depth of the Han army is too deep. He didn't plan to attack the city today.
Wang Ling turned his head and asked, "Generals, who will try his best?"
Chen, Hu San and others looked at each other and no one went. Xing Daorong was too burly and felt oppressive when he stood in front of him, let alone fighting, he would definitely not be able to beat him.
No Wei generals present are afraid of death, but they are afraid of embarrassment. It would be embarrassing if they can't beat them.
Seeing that no one volunteered, Wang Ling had to be tough and looked at Hu Cheer and said, "General Hu, go and try it."
"Here."
Hu Cheer clasped his fists and bowed, and reluctantly rushed towards Xing Daorong.
Chapter completed!
