- "My lord, could it be that" Zhang Song, who looked surprised, seemed to have guessed Yan Liang's intention, but he was not sure.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Cang rushed in excitedly and presented a piece of silk book, "Lord, this is our detailed plan to sneak into Fucheng, the latest information shot from Fucheng this morning."
Looking at Zhou Cang's expression, I think this information is good news.
While Yan Liang was eating breakfast, he motioned to Zhou Cang to read it out directly.
Zhou Cang then read out the information in front of Zhang Song, but the more Zhang Song listened to the information, the more surprised he looked on his face.
The intelligence said that last night, Zhang Ren and Wu Yiye broke into Ma Chao's tent and took away his younger brother Ma Dai for questioning and investigation in the name of censorship.
Therefore, Ma Dai has considerable prestige in the Xiliang army. When the news came out, more than 5,000 Xiliang soldiers were extremely angry and extremely dissatisfied. From last night to this morning, there have been several conflicts with soldiers from Shu.
Although the conflict between the two soldiers was quickly calmed down under the strong suppression of Zhang Ren and Ma Chao, the soldiers on the two sides were deeply hostile to each other, and the entire Fucheng was always in an atmosphere of tension.
This is the information read out by Zhou Cang, and it is indeed a refreshing piece of information.
"It turns out that my lord sent Ma Ziyue to persuade Ma Chao to surrender, and he actually had such an intention. Now my lord has provoked the Shu army to fight among themselves without any effort. My lord's method is really brilliant."
Zhang Song, who was suddenly enlightened, was full of surprise and couldn't help but admire loudly.
Yan Liang only smiled at Zhang Song's praise.
Actually, Ma Dai¡¯s move. It's not that he deliberately set it up, he just went with the flow.
Ma Chao and Zhang Ren were both arrogant men. Previously, Ma Chao surrendered to Liu Zhang. Yan Liang was guessing that it would be difficult for the two of them to get along.
Now Ma Chao took the initiative to propose a decisive battle and ordered the withdrawal of troops. The loser was Shu general Wu Yi again. Yan Liang thought that after the defeat, the two sides would blame each other.
Last night, Ma Dai took the initiative to persuade Ma Chao to surrender. Yan Liang wanted to use Ma Dai's identity as a prisoner. If he returned to Fucheng safe and sound, Zhang Ren's side would definitely become suspicious. Take necessary actions to prevent Ma Dai from becoming Yan Liang's "inside agent".
So, as a result, there was suspicion and distrust between the Xiliang soldiers and the Shu soldiers. Most likely it will be because of Ma Dai. It was ignited by this.
Current intelligence proves that Yan Liang¡¯s suspicions are completely correct, and the internal fighting among the Shu army has come sooner than Yan Liang imagined.
"My lord has a clever plan. Now the Shu soldiers and the Xiliang soldiers are fighting among themselves. Zhang Ren and Ma Chao also have a deep grudge. We will not take advantage of the situation to attack the city at this time. When will we wait, please give the order to attack the city."
Zhang Song looked generous and excited. He generously asked for a fight.
Yan Liang's blood was also agitated, and he stood up so much that he waved his hands and said: "Yongnian said at the right time, it is time to give the last blow to that group of miscellaneous soldiers. According to Gu's order, in the afternoon, the whole army Besieged from all sides, I want to defeat Fucheng in one fell swoop."
When the order for the general attack came down, the soldiers in the army who were already eager to try it immediately became excited.
After a feast of wine and meat before noon, more than 40,000 soldiers came out of the camp in the afternoon. Under the leadership of Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, Yan Yan and other fierce generals, they began to launch a crazy attack on the east, north and south gates of Fucheng. .
The Thunderbolt vehicles that arrived at the front line once again presented the threat of long-range bombardment. More than two hundred Thunderbolt vehicles launched a non-stop bombardment of Fucheng.
And the more than 40 newly arrived crossbows carried out long-distance precise strikes against the Shu army on Fucheng at an extremely long distance.
Under the attack of sophisticated weapons, the three gates of Fucheng were bombarded to pieces before Yan Jun could attack the city.
And the iron cluster, which was more than half a man long and could penetrate directly through the female wall, caused horrific damage to the Shu army huddled under the wall.
After several hours of long-range strikes, the brave Yan Jun soldiers began to launch a full-scale storm on the enemy city.
Hundreds of ladders, dozens of towers, more than a dozen rams, and various siege equipment from light to heavy were all deployed to the front line.
The men who dared to die bravely braved the arrows on the city to climb up the city. The crossbowmen in front of the moat kept firing arrows, trying their best to suppress the enemy's counterattack at the top of the city.
Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and other senior generals galloped back and forth along the city line, commanding their men to storm the enemy city one after another.
From afternoon to dusk, Yan Jun¡¯s attacks never stopped for a long time.
After several hours of strong attack, Fucheng was completely devastated. The most tragic part of the south gate was that most of the city gate had been burned down by Yan Liang.
On the front line of the city wall, Yan Jun suffered nearly 3,000 casualties. The layers of corpses piled up under the city wall, and the blood flowing out even dyed the water of the moat bright red.
Yan Liang, who was stationed more than a hundred steps away from the horse, faced this tragic sacrifice, but did not issue an order to temporarily withdraw his troops.
Although our own troops suffered heavy casualties, the enemy troops at the top of the city suffered heavy casualties under the attack of their own arrows and crossbows.
"Moreover, it was the suspicion between the Xiliang soldiers and the Shu soldiers. They were not coordinated with each other and did not rescue each other, which caused the Shu army's already insufficient combat effectiveness to be greatly weakened.
Ma Chao personally directed the defense of the east gate line, but because there were too few troops, the defense was already in danger until now.
How could Yan Liang miss such a great opportunity so easily and give the Shu army a chance to breathe.
His eyes were as cold as a blade, bursting with determination and confidence. If Fucheng was not captured today, he would not withdraw his troops.
"Where is Zhou Zifeng!" Yan Liang shouted after watching the battle for a long time.
"The end is here!"
Yan Liang pointed his horse whip at the enemy city in the distance and said sternly: "I order you to lead four thousand Tiger Guard troops to reinforce Gan Xingba at the east gate. If you don't capture the east gate before dark, you will come to see me."
"No!" Zhou Cang accepted the order with great enthusiasm and rode away.
Four thousand Tiger Guard soldiers, moving like the wind, followed Zhou Cang and rushed towards the east gate.
At this point in the battle, only the last straw was left to break the enemy's overburdened camel. At this point, Yan Liang had nothing to hesitate about, so he naturally devoted his pro-military camp to the battle. Go into battle.
Zhou Cang led four thousand troops and rushed to the front line of Dongcheng in a blink of an eye. Joined Gan Ning's siege army.
At this time, Yan Jun¡¯s siege army gathered in Dongcheng had reached an army of 20,000. But at the top of the city, Ma Chao's troops, who were struggling to support themselves, only had four thousand remaining soldiers.
Just as Yan Liang expected, the addition of Zhou Cang's four thousand Tiger Guard troops really became the last straw that crushed the Xiliang army.
In the almost frenzied attack of Wubei Yan's army, the Dongcheng front line. The Xiliang soldiers, whose morale was low, were finally unable to stop them.
Several city walls were breached, and hundreds of Yan troops were promoted to city soldiers. He rushed to the top of the city regardless of his own safety.
A fire has started at the city gate. The thick city gate has been ignited by Yan Jun with fish oil and is burning blazingly.
"General. The enemy's attack is too fierce. There are too many people, and we can't hold it any longer." Pang De, who was running towards us, shouted.
Ma Chao took one look at the embarrassing battle situation, hesitated for a moment, and gritted his teeth and said: "If we can't hold it, we don't have to hold it anymore. We can't sacrifice our Xiliang athletes in vain anymore. Send the order, and the whole army will quickly leave the city towards the west gate. Withdraw south to Mianzhu."
Before he finished speaking, Ma Chao had already raised his gun and hurried towards the city.
Pound was helpless. They had no choice but to order the entire army to abandon the defense of the city, and more than 3,000 remnant soldiers rushed towards the west gate.
Not long after fleeing, Pang De caught up with Ma Chao and shouted: "General, if we retreat first, once Yan's army enters the city, won't Zhang Renjun and Wu Yi's army be trapped in a situation where they are attacked from both sides? Otherwise, send Pegasus to inform them and order them to do so." Withdraw our troops together.¡±
"I just want them to be attacked from both sides. It would be best for those two guys to die in Fucheng. Then Liu Zhang will have no one to use. He can only rely on us. The military power of Yizhou will be easily obtained." Ma Chao said with a cold tone.
A chill ran across Pound's back.
After running for a few steps, he suddenly remembered something and said hurriedly: "General Ziyue is still locked up in the Shu barracks. What if Zhang Ren and the others kill General Ziyue in a rage?"
Ma Chao frowned, paused for a moment, and shouted: "At this point, we should focus on the overall situation and don't care about much. The most important thing is to withdraw from Fucheng first and preserve our strength."
At this point, Ma Chao actually had no time to care about his cousin's life and death.
Pang De's heart was shaken, and a chill rose from the soles of his feet in the blink of an eye, making his whole body shiver.
With his thoughts rolling, Pang De secretly gritted his teeth, turned his horse sharply, and headed toward the southwest.
"Pang Lingming, what are you going to do?" Ma Chao shouted.
"The last general will go rescue General Ziyue, and then go to the west of the city to meet the general." Pang De replied without looking back, riding his horse like the wind.
In the blink of an eye, Pang De's man was gone, and Ma Chao couldn't stop him, so he had to let him go. However, he whipped his horse whip and ran towards the west gate.
Pang De, who left the main force, led only a dozen cavalry troops and headed straight for Wu Yi's camp in the southwest of the city.
At this time, all the Shu soldiers were standing guard at the top of the city.There were only a few hundred old, weak, sick and disabled soldiers left. Pound rode straight in. The remaining soldiers were afraid of his power and were unstoppable.
Pound then caught an enemy soldier and found out that Ma Dai was locked in a cage in the rear camp. He quickly galloped away.
At this time, Ma Dai was locked in a small cage, listening uneasily to the loud shouts of death outside.
Ma Dai knew that the lord Yan Liang was launching a fierce attack on Fucheng. The lord of Fucheng would definitely change hands before tonight.
While he was listening, he saw Pound coming on horseback and slashing through the prison cage with his sword.
"Ling Ming, why are you here? How is the war?" Ma Dai jumped out of the prison car with a look of surprise.
Pang De grimaced and said helplessly: "The Yan army's offensive is too fierce and we cannot hold it. General Meng Qi has already withdrawn his troops and retreated through the west gate. I came here specially to rescue General Ziyue. It's not too late. General Ziyue will follow me to the west city immediately." retreat."
With that said, Pound asked the soldiers to bring in a war horse and found a sword for Ma Dai.
Ma Dai, with the war horse on his hip, shook his head: "Brother, for his own selfish interests, he has reached the point where he doesn't even care about the life and death of his brothers. What's the point of following such a eldest brother?"
Pang De looked shocked and wanted to say something, but fell silent.
"Obviously, although Pang De didn't say it explicitly, he was also dissatisfied with the fact that Ma Chao allowed Zhang Ren and others to take Ma Dai away in the tent yesterday.
Ma Dai rode his horse forward, stroked Pang De's shoulder and said: "Ling Ming, brother, he has gone crazy. If you continue to blindly follow him, you will be sacrificed by him sooner or later. Why don't you stay with me and submit to Grand Sima Yan?" "(To be continued.) - Didn't finish reading?
