Chapter 277 Amazing memory, careful thoughts
Han Sui bit his silver teeth and ordered his army to attack the infantry in Liu He's army without the protection of crossbow soldiers. In his opinion, this time it would definitely be a one-sided massacre against the enemy.
He even remembered the scene of the enemy kneeling down to surrender under his own iron cavalry. A cruel sneer flashed across his face and thought to himself: "Even if the army under Liu He really surrenders, I will not spare them. Kill them all and slap Liu He hard!"
However, the next scene surprised Han Sui because he saw his elite cavalry slashing under the other side's strange long sword and they were killed in battle.
"What? How could this happen? What kind of weapon is this? It can actually cause such a serious casualty to the elite cavalry soldiers of our army!" Han Sui was shocked when he saw this scene from afar. He really couldn't believe that there was such a weapon in the world that specifically dealt with cavalry!
In fact, at that time, because the cavalry had strong mobility and defense, it was generally difficult to cause severe damage to a cavalry unit except for large crossbows during combat. Even if the enemy generals were killed immediately, the opponent's head would generally be cut off, or the general who used guns and spears to use guns and spears had a relatively strong strength and could directly penetrate the armor outside to directly kill these cavalry soldiers. This was generally achieved by generals with relatively high force, so in this way, the cavalry's losses were generally less.
However, the unshakable sword equipped by Liu He's army is an exception, because this weapon can be assassinated and chopped, and the chopping force is very strong. Not to mention humans, even war horses can be killed by one knife. This powerful weapon is really shocking.
"No wonder Liu He dared to intercept our army here with such confidence. It turned out that he was relying on such a big killing weapon! It's hateful that Liu He had developed such a powerful weapon at some time! Retreat!"
Seeing this scene, Han Sui knew that it would be meaningless to continue fighting. After all, the morale of the army was in chaos. If he continued fighting, it would only cause greater casualties. So Han Sui gritted his teeth and immediately decided to retreat.
Fortunately, all the cavalry under his command were quick and it was not that easy for Liu He's army to pursue him. However, in this way, some soldiers who had no time to retreat were killed or captured by Liu He's army.
However, Han Sui still had nearly 20,000 people escaped. This time, Han Sui learned his lesson and led a large army to take a detour to help Linjing.
After defeating Han Sui, Liu He ordered people to count the results of the battle. In this battle, he killed more than 4,000 people, captured more than 1,000 horses, and suffered only more than 100 casualties. It was a great victory.
After that, Liu He left hundreds of people to clean the battlefield, and immediately led his army to Linjing City. He wanted to capture Linjing City before Han Sui's reinforcements arrived.
"He is already deploying suspicious soldiers along the road. I believe Han Sui dare not leave this road and go to Linjing easily. However, Han Sui will take a detour to Linjing within three days. Therefore, our task is still relatively tight. We must capture Linjing City within three days. However, there are 30,000 troops in Linjing City, almost equal to us. Yang Qiu, the enemy's general defending the city, is a very cautious person. He just defends the city to death but does not go out to fight with us. So if we attack strongly, even if we can capture Linjing City this time, we will suffer heavy losses. At that time, we may not be able to stop Han Sui's subsequent offensive. You must come up with a clever plan to capture Linjing City."
After arriving at Linjing City, Liu He immediately summoned all his civil and military personnel to discuss the best siege plan.
"It's not easy? Let the general dig the tunnel, and our army attacked the city through the tunnel at night, and then created chaos in the city. I believe that we can easily break through Linjing City." Fang Yuexian expressed his meaning and said with a loud laugh.
But Liu He sighed: "The soil in Linjing City is soft and is not suitable for digging tunnels at all. Otherwise, with your ability, digging tunnels would be a good idea."
"So that's the case, then, what should I do?" Fang Yue suddenly lost his mind and smiled embarrassedly and stopped talking.
At this time, Guo Jia smiled and said, "Lord, don't worry, Jia has a plan to be stable."
"Oh? I don't know what tricks you have to worship filial piety? Let's talk." Liu He was very happy to hear this and said to Guo Jia.
"Actually, this is not a clever plan. It's just a move Jia arranged in his early years. Do you still remember the first time Ma Teng and Han Sui had a feud?" Guo Jia smiled and asked faintly.
Liu He almost subconsciously said: "Of course I remember that Han Sui accepted the people who fled to Stand. Ma Teng was deeply annoyed by this and sent someone to pretend to be a bandit and rob Han Sui... Hum? Are you referring to those people who were accepted by Han Sui?"
Liu He suddenly understood all this and said to Guo Jia.
"The lord is indeed as expected. Yes, Jia refers to the people. The lord also knows that some of the people are actually our people, and some of them are detailed works we sent to Anding. Many of them have mixed into Anding's army and become military officers, Sima and others, and some have mixed into Anding's city and become merchants. As long as the lord writes them a letter, they can secretly support us in the attack. As long as they create chaos in the city and open the city gate in the chaos, we can easily win Anding."
Guo Jia shook his feather fan, went to a piece of cloth, and slowly handed it to Liu He.
"Haha, why did I forget this? There are many people in it that are my personal soldiers. There is no doubt that Zhang Dazhuang was originally a personal soldier in my camp. I didn't expect that he would become a military marquis and be responsible for guarding the city gate. There is also Wang Dayong, who is now the thief Cao Shenjun of the Prefect of Anding, and Sun Xiaotou, who was nicknamed Monkey Head, who had a sharp mouth and a monkey cheek. I didn't expect that he would become Yang Qiu's central army Zuo Sima. With their help, it would be easy to attack Anding."
Liu He was overjoyed and immediately wrote a letter, first praising these people for their loyalty to the country, and promising them with official titles. At the same time, he used words to inspire them to fight for the people of the world and to make achievements and win their wives and children.
"Haha, the letter from the lord is written with sincerity. Even Jia couldn't help but feel excited when he read it. Especially the lord was able to accurately say the names, words, family background and other information of these people, and to make different praises to different people. This amazing memory and this meticulous thought are really admirable. I believe these people will definitely pick up the swords around you and be loyal to the lord again. I believe Anding City will be within your fingertips!"
