MTL - Farmer of Shu Han-Chapter 1243 crossing the water

  Chapter 1243 Crossing the water

   Just when Huguan began to fall into chaos and rumors spread, Danshui was also in chaos.

  The general of the Wei army who was ordered to guard the Danshui had long been jumping up and down in public and yelling:

   "Crazy, crazy, really crazy!"

  The thief general on the opposite side really doesn't know how to lead an army at all?

  How can there be such a leader!

   On the first day when I came to the other side, I immediately crossed the water to explore the way.

  The next day, the whole army crossed by force.

   Didn't you see that there are many camps on your side, with a heavily guarded appearance?

   They are not afraid of the failure of crossing the water, and the whole army buried the belly of the fish?

   Wei Jiang was trembling all over, but he didn't know if it was from anger or fear.

  As long as you have more troops on hand.

   As long as there are more than 5,000 people, he has the confidence to block this bandit army in the water.

   It can even make the opponent suffer, and let the thief general know what the consequences will be if he acts so recklessly.

   But he didn't.

  The troops in his hand can only defend the frontal crossing point.

  He couldn't even take care of the bandit army crossing the water from the two wings.

  He didn't even figure out how the bandit army built so many weird rafts in one day and one night.

  How could they have thought that the bandit army would suddenly launch such a large-scale wading?

  According to common sense, even if the superior force is wading through the water, it will take a while to build wading equipment.

   Unlike the army of thieves in front of us, they did not act according to common sense from the very beginning.

   "Come on!"

   "Rush over, the bandits don't have many troops, as long as we all rush over, we will spend the night in the bandits' camp tonight!"

   "I can't make it through, I'll spend the night in the water tonight!"

  Compared to the panic of the Wei army, the Han army, which has a special mobilization mechanism, is planning to break through the defense line of the Wei thieves in one go.

  On each of the larger rafts, there was a young general with an excited expression on his face, encouraging the surrounding soldiers with a passionate tone.

  Some even ignored the arrow feathers falling from the sky from time to time, stood up directly, holding a tin horn, and kept shouting loudly:

   "Soldiers, it's time to make meritorious deeds. According to the rules of the big man, as long as you can defeat the bandit army on the opposite side, you can accumulate an acre of land at least!"

   "If you work harder, it's not impossible to get ten acres or eight acres!"

   "Tell everyone, the bandit army on the other side is much smaller than ours, and everyone can drown each other with a spit!"

   "When we reach the ground, don't be afraid, follow me!"

   "Don't worry, if I die, I will die first!"

  The expression on the face of the young man who said this was no longer excited, but fanatical.

  A proud man of a great man, he should have great ambitions, die in the border fields, and be buried in a shroud of horse leather.

  I think of the Hall of the Spiritual Throne in the Royal Academy, where the incense burns forever, the world is sacrificed, and the big man dies and dies, so why not be afraid!

  I want to enter the Hall of the Spirit, and I want to shade my descendants.

   Since everyone takes what they need, so follow me!

  As the raft got closer and closer to the opposite bank, the young general bent down, picked up his weapon, and fixed his eyes on the front, like a leopard about to pounce at any time.

   "Wow!"

  The raft hit something, and there was a sudden shock, causing everyone on the raft to shake involuntarily.

   "Go! Come with me!"

  The young general didn't wait to stand still, he was the first to jump into the water and rushed towards the shore.

  The Wei army in front had already fought with the first batch of Han troops who rushed ashore.

  The young general’s eyes were red, wishing he could fly to the front line.

   "Queue rate, line up?"

   Seeing that his team was in such a hurry, someone quickly reminded him.

   "Still in a fart team!"

  The young team pointed to the front and cursed: "It's a bad battle, just follow me!"

  Shi Bao wanted to forcibly break through the Wei army's waterfront defense line, and the ones sent in front were naturally the most elite backbone of the Tuchen army.

   Even the more than 2,000 engineering battalion guards under Wang Han's command were all overwhelmed.

  So don't look at the team as young, but in fact they are already experienced veterans.

   This is also one of the reasons why Wei will yell at him.

  After all, he never thought about it, the Han army dared to cross the Danshui without even taking a breather.

   More importantly, I thought that the group of Han troops who fought to the death yesterday could already be regarded as fierce soldiers rarely seen in the world.

  Who would have expected that those who rushed over today would be even more fearless than the group of Han troops yesterday.

  The one who fell into his mother is still spanking!

   "General, it's not good! Another group of bandits landed from the south and are rushing here!"

  The messenger rushed over rolling and crawling, reporting in a hurry.

   General Wei's face was ashen, and he glanced at the messenger numbly, but did not speak.

  What's the use of telling me this?

  Just to block the frontal Han army, I have already mobilized all the troops.

  I thought I could push them back into the water as quickly as possible, so as to deter the enemy.

  Who would have expected that instead of intimidating the opponent, he would be intimidated instead.

  The troops that can be mobilized now are all entangled with the Han army in front.

  How can there be extra troops to take care of the two wings?

  At this moment, I saw a firework suddenly rising from the east bank of Danshui, followed by a second one, which was extremely gorgeous.

  Shi Bao, who had been holding up his binoculars to observe the battle on the other side, burst into laughter:

   "The officers and men have broken the thief!"

  A firework, it shows that it has established a firm foothold and initially established a beachhead position.

   What Shi Bao didn't expect was that things went unexpectedly smoothly, and two fireworks rose in the sky, indicating that a counterattack was being launched.

   "Send an order to the rear army to speed up and cross the water immediately!"

   "Tell them, everyone can spend the night in the bandit camp tonight."

   "Here!"

  The thunderous war drum sounded.

  Row after row of rafts were put into the water. Looking around, the Han army on the surface of Danshui was like a group of ants, densely packed, rushing towards the opposite bank.

   "General, it's not good, the bandit army has already rushed towards the Chinese army!"

  The rear army of the Han army reached the opposite bank and completely declared the victory of forcibly crossing Danshui.

  This time, even the personal guard couldn't hold back:

   "General, please make a decision as soon as possible!"

   "Decision? What decision? What decision is there now?"

   At this time, General Wei calmed down instead:

   "There are fewer soldiers than thieves, and there are no reinforcements in the future. No one can hold such a long river section. What decision can I make?"

  The anxious guard stepped forward, lowered his voice, and hurriedly persuaded:

   "General, why don't you retreat? We will **** the general to the eldest son to the death..."

   "The eldest son is also an empty city, what's the use of returning there?"

   General Wei smiled miserably:

   "General Sun asked me to stay on guard for at least five days, and now I haven't even arrived for two days. Even if I escape back, I will still die."

   "The general wants to fight to the death?"

   General Wei glanced at the guard, but said nothing.

  He looked ahead silently, until he saw with his own eyes that the soldiers in front had begun to retreat and retreat, and then said in a heavy tone:

   "Pass my order, raise the white flag, let the soldiers abandon their weapons and surrender."

   "Huh? General, this..."

  According to the laws of the Great Wei, losing land is a felony, let alone surrendering a thief voluntarily.

  So when the first emperor was there, even if he couldn't defend the territory, the general would either die in battle or commit suicide.

  Even if they are exhausted and captured, they must actively ask for death. How can there be such a thing as surrendering a thief?

  The shouts of killing were getting closer and closer. General Wei kicked his guards and cursed:

   "Go quickly! If you don't go, it will be too late!"

  Watching the guards pass the order in a daze, General Wei heaved a long sigh.

  Da Wei is no longer the former Da Wei.

  The Han State is no longer the former Han State.

   Losing to the Han army is not something to be ashamed of.

  A young general of the Han army took the lead, and was about to rush to the range of the Wei thief's army. Unexpectedly, the Wei army began to voluntarily abandon their weapons and surrender.

   Seeing the first success pass by, he was so angry that he raised his knife and cursed:

   "Thief, you don't even have the courage to fight to the death, you have no guts!"

  But seeing the direction pointed by the long knife, a group of people suddenly appeared. It turned out that it was General Wei, escorted by his personal guards, who came to the front of the Han army rushing forward.

  Although he lost the great achievement of capturing the leader of the bandit army, he was reluctant to be the first to accept the surrender of the leader of the bandit army.

   Knowing that General Wei neither ran away nor fought to the death, but chose to surrender voluntarily, this surprised Shi Bao, who followed him across the water.

  He looked at the other party seriously.

  I found that the other party was also looking at me.

   "You know light and dark, you know good and evil, and you are very welcome."

   General Wei shook his head and smiled wryly:

   "The general really praised me too much. From the moment I saw the general ordering the army to cross the water today, I knew that I would lose this battle."

   Speaking of this, he looked at Shi Bao seriously, "The reason why a certain surrendered to the general is actually to solve the doubts in his heart, otherwise, even if a certain death is not reconciled."

   "Doubt? What doubt?"

   "Looking at the general's actions today, I think he must have seen the lack of defense on the east bank, so he dared to raise his troops across the water and caught someone by surprise."

   "But I really can't figure it out. How did the general see it?"

  Although there was an accident, General Sun had to lead most of the soldiers back to Huguan.

  But a few days ago, the soldiers of the Great Wei did indeed make a lot of preparations on the east bank of Danshui, which is why so many camps and barriers were left behind.

  According to common sense, seeing so many camps and barriers, even the most confident general should be vigilant and dare not act rashly.

   In addition, it is the first time to arrive here, so it is reasonable to let the soldiers rest and take care of themselves while exploring.

   After going back and forth, even if it is finally found that the opponent is empty of troops, the time spent will still take five, six, seven or eight days.

   And you have to consider whether there is an ambush or something.

  But the actions of the Han general in front of him were extremely reckless, and he simply took the lives of the entire army as a joke.

  However, what he did was to make his careful preparations useless.

   This battle, the defeat was too inexplicable, too suffocating.

  So he would rather surrender, but also wanted to ask what the opponent in front of him was thinking.

  When Shi Bao heard Jiang Jiang's remarks, he quietly put his hand holding the telescope behind him, smiled lightly, and said:

   "Do you know who is the person I admire the most in my life?"

   "Before this, I had never met the general before, how did I know?"

   "I was just a smuggler. Fortunately, I met a noble person, so I was able to see in front of Zhongduhu. Zhongduhu didn't think I was humble, and promoted me carefully, so I had the opportunity to show my ambition."

  Shi Bao said slowly, "So in my life, the people I admire the most are that nobleman and Feng Duhu."

   "Feng Duhu... but Feng Gui, uh, Feng Wen..." Jiang Jiang stammered, "Uh uh, that famous General Feng?"

   "That's right." Shi Bao nodded, and then asked, "Then do you know that there were also people who tried to deceive Feng Duhu back then with the trick of setting up an empty city."

   "Who would have thought that Feng Duhu would see through it, use his tricks, and finally capture that person?"

   Jiang Jiang was taken aback, feeling that this matter seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it.

  Shi Bao didn't say the person's name, just chuckled: "Since I respect Feng Duhu the most, I naturally knew a lot about Feng Duhu's experience in various battles."

   As he spoke, he made a pair of fingers, and tapped to surrender, "Your plan is so similar to what Feng Duhu encountered back then, how can I not see through it?"

  Hearing what Shi Bao said, although Jiang Jiang still doesn't know how he saw it through.

  But when he heard Feng's name, he was already convinced.

   It turned out to be a strategy that Feng Wenhe had seen through back then, and this person claimed to be promoted by Feng Wenhe himself, so his loss was indeed not wronged.

  Seeing that Jiang Jiang finally lowered his head, Shi Bao ordered him to be taken into custody.

  At the same time, let people clean up the remnants of the Wei army and send them back to the rear together.

  The original camp of the Wei army, as he said before, became a resting place for the Han army.

   While the soldiers below were enjoying the victory, Hu Zun found Shi Bao and suggested:

  "General Zhonglang, since we can cross the water quickly, we think the eldest son's thieves are not ready to defend the army. Why don't we take advantage of the high morale in the army and set off at three o'clock tonight to attack the eldest son."

   "If the thief is unprepared, we might be able to capture the eldest son in one go."

  Unexpectedly, Shi Bao didn't care, and said with a smile:

   "General Hu is impatient! The soldiers have been on the road these days, and they have not had to rest for the past two days. They have fought such a battle."

   "Don't look at the morale available, but they are already exhausted. It is best to let them take a break to recharge their energy."

  Hu Zun did not expect that General Zhong Lang, who was in a hurry to cross the water yesterday, would sit back and watch the fighter plane lose instead, so he couldn't help feeling a little anxious.

   "General Zhonglang, don't miss this opportunity! If the eldest son's bandit army is prepared, I'm afraid there will be many casualties."

  Shi Bao is still waving his hands, as if he doesn't care that the fighter plane is fleeting:

   "General Hu is too worried! If the thieves want to stop us, Danshui is the best place."

   "They didn't even think about defending here, so how could they send more defenders to the eldest son?"

   "Besides, we still have an engineering battalion in our hands. Why are we afraid of attacking the city? General Hu put his heart in his stomach."

   "I said yesterday that the thief must have received news from Taiyuan, so I'm afraid that he already has the intention to abandon Shangdang."

  Hu Zun still didn't know that Shi Bao had learned from the surrendered general that the eldest son also didn't have many guards, so he couldn't help but continued to persuade:

   "Since that's the case, shouldn't we be more eager to catch up?"

  Shi Bao gave a "tsk", and looked at Hu Zun with a little reproach:

   "How unwise is General Hu? We are led by infantry, how tiring chasing thieves?"

   "General, don't forget, General Zhendong is leading the cavalry army, and it's the right time to chase the thief!"

   Having said so much, if Hu Zun couldn't react, he would be a fool.

  He froze for a moment, then subconsciously slapped his head, hey!

  Obviously General Zhonglang hinted yesterday, how could he be dazzled by the victory in front of him?

  Thinking of this, he glanced at Shi Bao a little strangely.

   I can't complain that this person came from a humble background, but he was favored by the Central Guard. In addition to his own talent, this invisible ability to flatter others turned out to be very powerful.

  Hu Zun has even thought up the next step for Shi Bao.

  If General Zhendong can defeat the bandits alone, wouldn’t that be the first achievement of regaining the Shangdang?

  If General Zhendong is blocked in Huguan, then General Zhonglang will rush to support in time. In the end, under the restraint of General Zhendong, everyone will defeat the thief with one heart, and General Zhendong is also the first.

  Recalling that when I was in An'an, I had personally seen that the relationship between General Zhendong and the Central Guard seemed to be very special.

   This Zhonglang general is a fine individual!

   In this way, you can think of how to turn a corner to deepen your affection with Zhongduhu.
