Spoiling History: Starting from the Three Kingdoms

After Zhang Yi captured Quanling overnight, he simply rested for one night before leading his men to set off again.

When the envoy from Jiaozhou entered Nanzhong, he only knew about the attack on Jingnan from Jiangdong.

As Zhang Yi moved northward step by step, the general situation of the entire Jingnan was revealed in front of him.

There are many water veins in the east of Jingnan, and a Xiang River directly connects the three counties of Lingling, Guiyang, and Changsha.

Moreover, the eastern part is also bordered by Jiangdong, so it can be said that it has a unique advantage when attacking.

The only good thing is that the Xiangjiang River originates from Yanghai Mountain in Lingling County, and then flows into Yunmengze from south to north.

In this case, Jiangdong had to go upstream from Yunmengze to attack Jingnan. Now that Zhang Ni came from the south, he could just take advantage of the current and go north along the river.

However, now that the two counties of Guiyang and Changsha are gone, if we sail from Quanling to the north of the Xiangjiang River, there will probably be many obstacles along the way. We may have to penetrate all of Jiangdong's defense lines on the Xiangjiang River, which is very risky and takes a lot of time. .

Zhang Ni, who was sitting on the bow of the boat, counted his fingers and calculated carefully. This was also the reason why he did not choose to go down the Xiang River.

Although the flow is good, if you go all the way, you will eventually enter Yunmengze. By then, the three thousand people of your own will probably feed the fish and turtles of Yunmengze. This road is too risky.

If the waterway cannot be used, there are only two ways to go north to Jiangling. Either take the land route of Hanshou, or go into the mountains and forests of Wuling County.

Although it was safe to go up the mountain, Zhang Yi, who was unfamiliar with the place, intuitively thought that it would be better to go to Yunmengze and fight Jiangdong instead of going up the mountain.

Therefore, the only way before us was to go to Jiangling by land via Hanshou.

Mr. Lu really got it right... Zhang Ni murmured.

When traveling with the envoys from Nanzhong to Jiaozhou, Mr. Lu gave Zhang Yi a rough guess and analysis of the current situation in Jingnan.

Finally, it was concluded that if Zhang Ni wanted to aid Jiangling, he would have to pass through Hanshou, so he planned to pass through Quanling, then go ashore via Yongchang and go straight to Zhaoling County, then seize the boat and enter the Zishui River to follow the current to Yiyang, and then abandon the boat and head north.

Now Zhang Yi's actions are exactly the same as Mr. Nalu's analysis.

But Mr. Lu didn't say that Han Shou actually had such a Jiangdong Army... Zhang Ni felt a little headache.

After helping Wu Ju defeat the enemy, Zhang Ni learned from Jiangdong's descendants that Jiangdong's army in various places in Jingnan now dispatched elite troops to support Han Shou.

This is contrary to Mr. Lu's guess that Han Shou should have heavy equipment but no heavy troops.

As for what happened to Zhang Yi, it is unknown. According to the statement of the self-proclaimed General Lingling, it seems that Jiangdong believes that as long as Hanshou is conquered, the entire Jingnan will not be a problem.

Although Mr. Lu’s analysis was a little unexpected, Hanshou was going to go anyway.

After all, even if they encounter more than 10,000 land soldiers, their 3,000 elite troops are not without the power to fight.

If he was surrounded by more than 10,000 navy troops in Yunmengze, Zhang Yi could not think of a second ending other than committing suicide by diving into the water to be appreciated by all the emperor's uncles.

Moreover, it seems that Han Shou has a strong army resisting Jiangdong. If so, it can be regarded as a friendly force and must lend a helping hand no matter what.

With a thought in mind, Zhang Ni calmly stood up and came to the side of the ship, and replaced a soldier who was tired from maneuvering the ship.

With Zhang Yi taking the lead, the Yizhou soldiers rowed faster and faster, and the boat full of people speeded up a bit faster, galloping towards Yiyang.

Dong Xi, your defeated general dare not fight again. You are really a cowardless pig and dog, as cowardly as a rat!

On the chaotic battlefield of Han Shou, Shamoko's roar was quite loud. The Mandarin that Ma Liang had corrected did not have much of an accent, and the words were spoken in a straight and rounded tone, echoing over the entire battlefield.

The commotion of Jiangdong Army stopped for a while, and then someone looked back.

Of course, nothing could be seen, but under the banner of the Chinese army at the rear, Dong Xi was so ashamed and angry that he wanted to go out to fight and avenge his humiliation.

But as soon as his hand touched the weapon, he remembered Samoko's brute strength and trickery, and felt a little frightened. He hesitated for a while.

This is the enemy general provoking the general. Don't bother Yuan Dynasty.

Seeing the change in the expression on Dong Xi's face, Pan Zhang laughed and quickly comforted him, and then said confidently:

The barbarians are arrogant and don't know how to be brave. Let's see if someone is defeated in battle, Han Shou will defeat them today!

After comforting Dong Xi, Pan Zhang went with confidence and picked up his weapon.

Dong Xi wanted to say something, but seeing Pan Zhang's complacency, he wisely chose to shut up.

After being captured alive by Shamoko in the Battle of Linyuan, Dong Xi had become a de facto polished general, and all his troops were surrendered to death.

Now there are only dozens of soldiers with him, all of whom were released by Hanshou Pan to show their sincerity to Jiangdong.

Dong Xi sighed, picked up the cup and sipped the water in a boring sip, thinking in his heart that after this battle, he would borrow some men and horses to go over the mountain a few more times.

At the same time, Dong Xi was counting silently in his heart. After counting thirty-seven breaths, Samoko's wild laughter sounded again:

You dare to call yourself a brave general? Are there any brave people in Jiangdong now?

Then the tent door was opened again, and Pan Zhang was carried in with all hands and feet.

The grandeur he had before thirty-seven breaths had disappeared. At this time, one of Pan Zhang's cheeks was swollen and stained with a lot of mud, and the gorgeous leather armor on his body was also much torn.

After some messy treatment, Pan Zhang finally woke up. The first thing he wanted to do was to question Dong Xi, but seeing the bitter smile on the other party's face, Pan Zhang couldn't say anything for a while.

There are so many barbarians and brave men who can hardly defeat our army. Wen Gui can plan for it slowly.

Dong Xi gave a sound suggestion. Although Pan Zhang had a lot of reluctance on his face, he knew in his heart that this was the safest way.

Listening to Samoko's scolding outside the tent, Pan Zhang was a little upset for a moment, and waved his hand and gave the order directly:

Go forward, bowmen, and make sure that bastard leader shuts up!

Then the two Jiangdong glanced at each other, and then sighed together.

When they were in Jiangdong, which one of them didn't run rampant in the countryside in the name of bravery? Some people even gave them the title of Tiger Minister.

Although Pan Zhang and Dong Xi never acknowledged him, he was still quite pleased with him in his heart.

But why was it so difficult after leaving Jiangdong? To the north, Zhang Liao killed him and was severely defeated. To the west, he now led nearly 40,000 troops to surround more than 10,000 miscellaneous barbarians, but he was about to be besieged.

Could it be that Jiangdong is really not as brave as the Northerners?

At this time, Hanshou, Shamoko, who was pushed back into the city by a hail of arrows, cursed:

Bah! These Jiangdong rats are more cowards than the others!

According to Shamoko, how many years has passed since the Battle of Chibi? Among the nearly 40,000 soldiers in front of us, there must be many who had taken orders from Zhou Gongjin.

The soldiers are almost the same. At the beginning, the Zhou governor could not lead an army of 30,000, but he dared to block Cao's army of 800,000.

Now, General Wu's more than 30,000 people are holding back in front of more than 10,000 people.

It’s self-evident what the problem is.

At this moment, Shamoko's resentment towards Pan and others who had caused trouble in Han Shou was reduced.

Even if Dong Xi is let go, so what? A mediocre general will not harm the overall situation.

As for the overall situation... Shamoko put away his expression that looked like he had no brain, let others take off his armor, and began to raise his head and think deeply.

Now trapped in Hanshou, he was chased by Jiangdong Army from Zuotang in the north, and Jiangdong Army would definitely prevent them from approaching Jiangling, so there must be many obstacles in the north.

To the south... To the south is the Yuanshui River. There are many ships in the east of the river, so they can't afford to mess with them. To the east is the Yunmengze. They don't even have a ship now, so they can only stare at the navy in the east of the river.

Is it possible that we can only abandon Han Shouxi and flee back to the mountains? Shamoko felt a little shaken for a moment.

But he immediately rejected this plan. Although the Wuxi Barbarian King was good, Samoko still cherished the official position of Hanshou County Magistrate given by Xuande Gong.

Through this official position, Samoko can see a future that even the Wuling barbarians have been dreaming of for hundreds of years!

After making up his mind, Samoko no longer had any doubts and immediately ordered people to summon the other barbarian kings.

He is the Barbarian King of Wuxi, not the Barbarian King of Wuling. Wuxi Barbarian is just the largest barbarian tribe in Wuling County. Other tribes, big and small, also have barbarian kings. They all have the kindness of Mr. Ma, obey the orders of Xuande Gong, and accept Sha Moko moderation.

It was extremely easy for the barbarian kings to communicate with each other. Faced with the choice of either defending or escaping back to the mountains, they almost did not hesitate to choose to fight Jiangdong to the end.

But what they considered was extremely simple.

Hey, Jiangdong wants to ride on our necks, but he doesn't want to see if he has the ability!

So Pan Zhang found that his plan of surrounding three ques and one according to the military manual was directly ignored by this group of barbarians.

The barbarian leader Shamoko yelled and cursed in front of the battle every day, which made the Jiangdong soldiers look back frequently, but they only got disappointment.

There was no figure scolding Fang Qiu under the banner of the Chinese Army, nor was there a figure trapped in the enemy's formation and moving forward bravely.

Pan Zhang never appeared again after being knocked unconscious by Samoko on that day.

Under this circumstance, Jiangdong's encirclement and compression of Han Shou was much slower than expected.

But after all, there was still a numerical advantage. Relying on step-by-step tactics and archer suppression, Samoko had to abandon the city wall and retreat to the inner city of Hanshou after a few days.

It is said to be an inner city, but in fact it is just a second line of defense built with the help of houses and wreckage in the city during these days.

In this case, another general of Jiangdong Army just came forward, intending to personally decide the outcome of the battle.

Dong Xi's troops were all gone and he had no power at all in commanding the troops.

It was impossible for Pan Zhang to mobilize all the 30,000 troops, but there was another general stationed here.

Yi Gong! Pan Zhang cupped his hands, his movements a little frivolous, which made Han Dang frown.

As a veteran of the Sun family, Han Dang had seen the elite soldiers and generals in the north, so he was not very fond of some of the generals in Jiangdong.

The most typical example is Pan Zhang, who roamed the countryside relying on his bravery and did not know the vastness of the world.

At the same time, he also had shortcomings such as alcoholism, greed for money, and pursuit of fame. In Han Dang's view, this generation was only worthy of being the first to die, but Sun Hou promoted him abruptly and called him a talented person.

Fortunately, this so-called virtuous man took the liberty to attack and hit the iron plate, which directly damaged his own morale.

If General Polu or Wuhou Bofu were in charge of Jiangdong at this time, then they would definitely order the army to capture them directly as a warning to others, but now...

Han Dang just pretended not to see it and directly ordered:

Now that the bandits have retreated, they have exhausted their skills.

I have secured the city wall, and my morale has been boosted. Wen Gui should join me first to serve as a model for the three armies. We will definitely be able to defeat the enemy and share the worries of Sun Hou!

Pan Zhang had the intention to refuse, but faced with Han Dang's solemn expression, it was difficult to say the words. In the end, he could only smile unnaturally and said:

It is my great fortune to die fighting on the battlefield with my righteous father.

Han Dang took a serious look at Pan Zhang and said, That would be the best.

There are many ways to boost morale in the cold weapon era, and most of them are quite simple. Han has been in the army for many years and is considered very good at it.

Let the soldiers have a good sleep and a good meal, then choose a suitable time to march, and move the flag so that everyone can see the general in front.

These simple actions are enough to make the soldiers die for you, which is what Han Dang did.

After Hanshou's short city wall was occupied by Jiangdong, it was quickly bulldozed. Those that could be bulldozed were bulldozed, and those that couldn't be bulldozed were padded with soil on both sides to make it feel like walking on flat ground.

Now looking at the simple inner city wall, Han Dang did not have Pan Zhang's sneer on his face, but simply raised the Huanshou Sword in his hand.

This was an obvious signal to attack. A group of veterans behind Han Dang roared in unison and began to move forward.

Pan Zhang followed suit and led his troops to follow suit.

In the Wuling Army camp, Samoko stood ready, looking at Han Dang who was showing his age with admiration in his eyes:

There really is a tiger general in Jiangdong!

As for Pan Zhang next to him, he had automatically filtered him out. He had been a defeated general and had been a coward for so many days, and Shamoko had long since lost interest in him.

Han Dang, who rarely spoke on the battlefield, came forward with his own soldiers holding a ring-shaped sword.

Han Dang's troops were very conspicuous in charging forward. Jiangdong's army seemed to be inspired by this, and many veterans followed the general's footsteps with angry shouts.

Shamoko didn't dare to neglect at all at this moment, and waved the iron rod to greet him.

And as soon as they fought, it was clear that today was not going to be a good day. This veteran had experienced countless battles. Although his body was old and his strength was not as strong as before, when fighting him, he would never give in to him if he should avoid it, and he would be reckless when he should exchange injuries for injuries. No, and even if there was no strength, there were still soldiers to share the burden. For a while, it was an even fight with Shamoko.

Samoko, the biggest spoiler on the battlefield, was held back by the general, and other Jiangdong soldiers also began to actively attack the Wuling Army. After losing their fear in their hearts, the Jiangdong soldiers gradually regained their sense of conquering mountains and mountains.

Although these Wuling barbarians are brave, their military formation is extremely unfamiliar. Most of the time they fight randomly based on their personal bravery. It seems that two armies are colliding, but in fact the confrontation is often between three or four Jiangdong troops fighting together. Wuling Man.

Without the support of the Barbarian King, the casualties of the Wuling Army gradually began to appear. This in turn made Samoko become more ferocious. However, the flaws in the iron rod sweep became more and more obvious. Han Dang turned a blind eye to this and just suppressed it steadily. , not greedy for merit.

This time Shamoko was really anxious.

As the war progressed steadily, this inner city defense line seemed to be crumbling.

Seeing that they were about to win a great victory, Jiangdong's army in the south was in an uproar. A young general was seen rushing left and right over there, still shouting:

Ma Zhong is here, who dares to fight!
