Three Kingdoms: Stealing the Tiger Talisman and forcing Yuan Shao to become a monk

Chapter 425 Luxurious Legion
If it weren't for the fact that the Xichuan army led by Zhang Wei was too good and honestly surrounded Qiao County, he wouldn't have to face this strong camp now.

It is also a hard nut to crack, even if the camp in front of him is breached, the Hebei army can retreat into Qiaojun city and continue to rely on the city wall to block the attack.

It is equivalent to gnawing two hard bones in a row to win Qiaojun.

Sensing Yang Ling's cold gaze, although Zhang Wei felt annoyed in his heart, the trouble in front of him was to some extent caused by his Xichuan army.

At the moment, there were only two laughs, and he said in a low voice: "General Yang, why don't we try to rob the camp tonight?"

Hijack the camp?

Hearing Zhang Wei's proposal, Yang Ling's eyes lit up.

The soldiers of the ancient army ate very little meat due to lack of nutrition. Even if they could eat meat, it was only one or two slices, and they might not be able to eat it once a month.

Lack of vitamin A supplementation in meat, many soldiers of the ancient army suffered from night blindness, and could not see clearly what was in front of them at night.

However, due to the geographical advantage of the Jingzhou Army, there are many rivers and rivers under its jurisdiction, and there are abundant fish and shrimp resources. Even the soldiers at the bottom can get fish and shrimp every few days.

So the proportion of soldiers suffering from night blindness is much lower.

In Yang Ling's view, the Jingzhou army he brought was naturally a powerful army in the world, and those guarding Qiaojun City were just second-rate troops in the Hebei army.

If it is a night attack, it may not be impossible to succeed in one battle.

However, Yang Ling changed his mind again, pondered for a moment and said: "No, our army has come here on an expedition, and the sergeant's physical strength has not yet recovered. Set up camp tonight, so there is no need to rush to attack. We will talk about it tomorrow."

Hearing Yang Ling's words, Zhang Wei also suggested casually and didn't take it to heart.

However, if he knew Yang Ling's true thoughts, he would have to fight Yang Ling one-on-one on the spot.

Because Yang Ling's reason for rejecting the night attack was not what he said on the surface, but simply because he felt that even people like Zhang Wei could come up with the idea of ​​a night attack.

The guards of Qiao County in the camp in front of him can probably be imagined.

Doing mental calculations without intention, I am afraid that if I rob the camp tonight, I will be caught by the ambushes on the opposite side, so I might as well just rest for a night.

Wait until tomorrow daytime to send troops.

……

"Is that the flag of the Jingzhou Army?"

While Zhang Wei and Yang Ling were observing the camp under the Qiaojun city, on the watchtower of the Qiaojun camp, Liu Yan, Han Hao, and Deng Ai also stood on the top floor of the watchtower, looking at the enemy camp opposite.

Liu Yan asked in a low voice, and Han Hao nodded solemnly: "The big flag has a word 'Cai' written on it. If there is no accident, it should be the flag of Cai Mao, the commander-in-chief who dispatched troops in Jingzhou this time, but Cai Hao should It hasn't arrived yet, the main flag in the battalion is still the Yang character flag...does Jingzhou have a general with the surname Yang?"

Deng Ai followed Yuan Tan and studied the Six Secret Teachings like Xu Shu, so he naturally knew that intelligence was also a very important part of the two armies fighting.

Immediately smiled and said: "If I guess correctly, it should be Yang Ling, the vanguard general of the Jingzhou Army this time. Received from the pro-army, he can be regarded as a strong general in Jingnan."

"Oh I got it."

Hearing Deng Ai's account of Yang Ling's identity and experience like a few treasures, Han Hao and Liu Yan were secretly shocked.

After getting along with each other for the past few days, they can all feel that although the young general in front of him is young, he marches and fights with great discipline. It is no exaggeration to say that he has both military and military skills.

In contrast, Han Hao's self-proclaimed both civil and military skills are far too watery.

Thinking about it again, such a person would call Yuan Tan his teacher. I don't know how elegant the eldest son who can be called the white jade pillar supporting the sky and the purple golden beam in the sea is waiting for Yuan Tan.

Compared with Han Hao's emotion, Liu Yan was much calmer about Deng Ai's performance.

Of course, this calmness can also be said to be numb.

After all, Liu Yan had personally witnessed Yuan Tan's prestige when he charged into battle. How could such a hero bring out such a poor disciple?
Rather than who Yang Ling was, Liu Yan was more concerned about the number of coalition troops who had camped under Qiaojun City at this moment.

"I'm afraid there are nearly 10 people." Liu Yan's tone was quite heavy.

The princes of the four routes, Cao Cao at the beginning made it clear that he wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and there is no sign of sending troops until now.

For the remaining three groups of troops, Zhang Lu raised [-] troops, pretending to be an army of [-].

Yizhou raised 13 troops, and Bazhou, Yong'an and other southern Yizhou soldiers will be sent out, claiming to be an army of 20.

In addition, Jingzhou sent 50 troops, which was so powerful that rumors were released at the beginning of the dispatch, claiming that [-] troops would send troops.

Even if the water is deducted, it will take 30 troops, which still does not count Cao Cao, who has never sent troops.

If Cao Cao sent another army, I am afraid that there will not be 1 troops, and it is not difficult to gather 50 troops.

At that time, even if Qiao County is defended, it may be difficult to preserve Yuzhou and other counties and cities in Yanzhou.

Liu Yan kept silent and his face was serious, while Han Hao and Deng Ai were also lost in thought. After a while, Deng Ai said first: "Two generals, instead of waiting here for reinforcements, it is better to take advantage of our army's large-scale army the day before yesterday. Victory means that the morale of the soldiers is high, sending troops to rob and kill the enemy camp tonight, even if it cannot destroy the enemy army, at least it can destroy their morale, so that they dare not underestimate us."

Hearing Deng Ai's opinion, Han Hao and Liu Yan pondered for a while, but they both showed emotion.

It's just that Han Hao thought more than Liu Yan, and after thinking for a while, he said: "The strategy of robbing the camp is not impossible, but right now we have few soldiers and the enemy's force is strong. Once the enemy is prepared, the team that robbed the camp If you are trapped in the enemy's camp, if you are in a hurry, you may not be able to rescue them in time."

Hearing Han Hao's words, Deng Ai smiled slightly.

For ordinary robbing troops, this may happen.

However, Deng Ai, who had brought the Iron Buddha to break through the vanguard of the Xichuan Army before, now has great confidence in the combat effectiveness of the Iron Buddha.

The heavy armor of Tiefutu was originally the pinnacle of armor craftsmanship in the Song Dynasty.

Needless to say, Yuan Tanrang made the heavy pagoda armor made by Jiang Zuoyuan, and the material used was high-density plate armor that was forged dozens of times with hydraulic rotary hammers.

In later generations, the heavy armor of the Buddha Iron Guards would not be as effective in defense as the steel armor made by modern machines.

But in this era, not to mention the Xuzhou armor, even the Su Tiekai, which is about to be armed to the Xuzhou new army, can't compare with the Futu Heavy Armor of the Futu Iron Guard in terms of defense!

Even the master craftsmen of the General Academy, when they received Yuan Tan's order to build, sighed that the cost of building five thousand pagoda heavy armor was enough to arm twenty thousand Xuzhou new troops!

In other words, Tiefutu is the most elite army in the Xuzhou army.

It is completely Yuan Tan, using Xuzhou's great harvest, plus the first year of Ding'an to use Xuzhou armor to "exploit" the food and grass of the two princes of Jiangdong and Jingzhou as the foundation, a super luxurious heavy cavalry piled up from mountains of gold and silver!
