Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 904
Zhao Yun set up a pot to light a fire in front of the formation, and there was a watchtower in Zhang He's camp. The fire immediately attracted the attention of the scouts. Zhang He soon learned of the new "movement" of the Han army, but he did not make corresponding deployments. The scouts on the tower continued to monitor.

An hour later, the smell of food wafted from dozens of pots, blowing along the wind in the valley to the Wei Army camp.

In order to keep warm in the sunshine every day, Zhang He purposely faces south with his back to the high mountains and the Xiazhai village, leaving the shadowy area behind for Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong.

Going down to the stronghold on the sunny side to absorb the warmth of the sun is tantamount to reprinting the layout of Dingjun Mountain, forcing the Han army to attack from the dark side, taking advantage of the geographical and climatic advantages. But he was slapped by Zhao Yun.

The wind blowing from the south of the valley will penetrate the camp where the Wei army is stationed, and then be blocked by the high mountains to the north of the camp. Part of the wind will form a backflow and finally dissipate in the Wei army camp.

It doesn’t matter if it’s just the cold wind, the camp of the Han army is still unavoidably cold, and most of the time there is no sun, but the fatal thing is that Zhao Yun used the smell to fight, using kelp and dried fish in the pot with radish and other things, the aroma of the food is beautiful It lingers in the valley for a long time, and occasionally the north wind will pass through and take it to Weiying.

Wei Jun can only eat half full for two meals a day, but it's not yet noon, and Han Jun is going to eat again?Drilled into Wei Jun's nostrils, it smells like vegetables and meat
It was only a few breaths, and the stomach that had eaten breakfast was suddenly rumbling. Huang Zhong divided the people fighting into two teams. One team was guarding and shouting, and the other team went directly outside the village to drink soup.

That scene was like a dieter watching food and TV broadcasts, not only did not satisfy his hunger, but became even hungrier. Seeing this, Zhang Yun stomped his feet in anger, and couldn't help but go back to the camp to drink water and shout shamelessly.

"General, Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun are too arrogant, we might as well go out and smash the other party's pots and pans." Chun Yuye, the general under the tent, remonstrated.

Zhang Yun originally stood with his back turned, turned around and asked, "Are Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun on the opposite side? Do you know how many pots and pans will be smashed, what price will we have to pay?"

"Isn't it okay to rush out? Go back to the camp when there is a mess." Chun Yuye asked.

"You can go to the watchtower to have a look. Zhao Yun is not just waiting for nothing. He has already formed a pocket formation beside him, just waiting for us to throw ourselves into the trap." Zhang He frowned.

"Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong are indeed extremely brave, but they can't do whatever they want, right? The general has always been known for his wisdom and bravery. He must find a way to deal with it, otherwise the fighting spirit of the soldiers will be lost." Chun Yuye shook his head straight.

"Sorry, Bravery can really do whatever you want." Zhang He shook his head and sneered, then rolled his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Let someone set up a pot to boil water. We are not as rich as the other party. Let's drink some hot water to warm our bodies, right?"

"Wei." Chun Yuye cupped his fists and turned around to deliver the order, looking at the soldiers in the camp basking in the sun, he thought to himself that he could be regarded as a dead horse to be a living horse doctor.

While drinking hot soup, the Han army fought and yelled outside the Wei camp. The day's confrontation soon ended. The soldiers under Huang Zhong's command were extremely comfortable, but it was tormenting for Zhang Xi's side.

Huang Zhong withdrew his troops and went back to the camp. All the battalions under Zhang Yun were clamoring for dinner. The generals of the Wei Army smelled the aroma all day, and finally it was time for the meal. However, the Wei Army rations were single and not enough.

The Han army did not all eat and drink openly, only a small number of soldiers who fought against Huang Zhong did not stop talking, otherwise the food brought by Chang'an would not last long.

At night, Huang Zhong found Zhao Yun excitedly: "Zilong, your method is really good. It has made Wei Jun so greedy. It is estimated that after a few days, the morale of the enemy army will be wiped out. It is useless for Zhang He to be shameless. In the end, he will die." Hide in the turtle shell (big tent)."

"There are many soldiers in An Ding but little food. It is estimated that the Wei soldiers will not be able to eat enough, so we might as well add fire to them. It depends on how long Zhang He can defend, and there is a possibility of mutiny." Zhao Yun said seriously.

"Haha, Zilongni is really cunning, I want a drink today, hiccup." Huang Zhong drank a lot of soup during the day, and his mouth was full of kelp by the end of the conversation.

Zhao Yun joked with a smile: "Can the old general still drink it? Tomorrow, a new batch of soldiers will drink soup."

"Ah yes yes yes, enjoyment has to be exchanged." Huang Zhong smiled like a child.

The next day, the Han army boiled the soup, and the Wei army boiled the water. Their satisfied eyes looked at their longing eyes, like a full man looking at a hungry man. Although the Han army did not launch a strong attack, Zhao Yun's strategy of "showing off his wealth" did more damage.

Zhang Yun struggled until Huang Zhong withdrew his troops. He patrolled the camp at night and found that many soldiers complained about not having enough to eat. If they continued to fight, they starved to death if they did not fight. The emotional ones said that they were trapped in Yongliang. The family members in the Central Plains had no idea what happened. Death is life, it is better to surrender to the Han army and have a full meal.

Although Wei State's wrongful service system was cruel, but Yongliang Cao Jun had lost contact with the Central Plains. It is hard to say whether the family members of the soldiers will be implicated, and it is also hard to say whether the wives of the soldiers will become strangers, so the idea of ​​defection is inevitable.

Zhang He was shocked when he heard the words. On the one hand, he ordered the food officer to increase the rations, and on the other hand, he sent people to Linjing overnight to deliver the letter. In addition to reporting Zhao Yun's "shameless" strategy, he also had to apply to Cao Zhen for more military rations, otherwise the frontline soldiers would risk mutiny. , As for whether Cao Zhen can be dispatched, it is not Zhang Yun's business.

As Zhang He increased the ratio of military rations, the impetuous situation of the soldiers was temporarily stabilized, but the speed of food consumption also doubled. Cao Zhen did not hear back from the confrontation for seven or eight days, and the food in the camp could only last for about three days. Zhang He immediately chose to withdraw , Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun actually won their first victory by drinking soup.

Some camp defenses were not attacked by force, but they fought in the wild according to their own abilities. The first time Zhang Xi withdrew his troops, he was discovered by his "enemy" Huang Zhong's trilogy.

Zhao Yun saw that the opportunity was rare and he didn't stop him, so he just frowned and said: "The old general wants to chase me, but we are not familiar with stable terrain, you must be careful, no matter whether you catch up or not, you must stop and fight with me before dark." confluence."

"Just Yizilong." Huang Zhong looked up at the misty sky, thinking that it was not long after dawn, even if Zhang Xi wanted to escape, he would let him lose a piece of meat. The soldiers had eaten for a few days, and it was time to fight the enemy bravely up.

Since Huang Zhong discovered it early, he was only two or three miles away from the fleeing Wei army, and soon caught up with the rear army carrying luggage.

At dusk in the afternoon, Huang Zhong rushed to Yinpan County, only to realize that he was at the top without knowing it. There were only [-] cavalry left beside him, and those infantry were left far behind.

Huang Zhong held his ground, hesitating whether to retreat or not. Suddenly, a scout sent a battle report. A group of men and horses came from the direction of Yinpan. There were about 5000 people. It seemed that they wanted to eat Huang Zhong's exhausted army.
