Chapter 125
Food and grass are bad luck, especially when there is no food and grass.
It is even more difficult to build a pontoon bridge. It is not that no one has successfully built a pontoon bridge on a large river, but the conditions for success are too harsh.
You need to find a place where the water flow is stable and there are no undercurrents, and if it fails...
In fact, it is better to just find a few boats to ferry slowly.
There is a convenient method for a large army to cross a river.
For example, the previous method for Guan Ying to lead his troops across the river was to first build a few ropes, then tie three ropes to the boat, and tie the other end to the rope.
The rope connecting the two sections is not long to ensure that the boat will not deviate too far from the rope.
When using it, let the soldiers stand on the boat and pull the rope forward to make it faster.
As for whether the rope will break if it is so long.
As long as it's thick enough, theoretically it can't be broken.
Building a pontoon bridge is convenient and quick in theory, but in practice it is very impractical. It can be basically concluded that no one can guarantee whether the pontoon bridge can last for an hour.
"This is amazing!" After hearing the complete description of the incident, Wang Buxian couldn't help but give Zhang Han a thumbs up.
Not to mention, regardless of whether his methods are awesome or not, at least he can bring back the morale of the army that is about to be ruined. Zhang Han is pretty awesome at this.
"Master, do you want to send an order to Peng Yue to cross the river as soon as possible?" Zhang Buyi asked.
He was also confused when he got the news.
Zhang Han actually asked the civilians who were confined about ten miles west of the camp to dig soil and put it in bags to pretend that a new batch of grain and grass had arrived.
After seeing the replenishment of food and grass, the morale of the soldiers was indeed much more stable.
As a result, Zhang Han then ordered to go north to prepare to cross the river and look for new fighters.
In fact, it was no longer possible to leave. The war situation was already like this. After Peng Yue's 30,000 troops crossed the river and marched south, they would not be able to leave even if they wanted to.
Unless they break through the encirclement head-on, Wang Buxu's troops are no less powerful than his own, and each one is more capable of fighting than the other.
Therefore, Peng Yue's 30,000 troops naturally came into Zhang Han's field of vision.
"Well, the order still needs to be passed, but it is not to ask him to cross the river as soon as possible, but to ask him to reach the north bank of the river as soon as possible, and then he will die there. Wherever Zhang Han builds a pontoon bridge, he will be stationed there!"
He nodded and said.
If you can solve it with your mouth, try not to do it with your hands.
Anyway, Wang is not in a hurry if he is not hungry. So what if the morale of the army is stable?
Can it change the reality that you are surrounded and your food route is cut off?
Does not……
The more ruthlessly you deceive the soldiers now, the more ruthlessly they will retaliate in the future.
It's just a few days earlier and a few days later. We lack this little time?
"Young Master, you are so bad..." Zhang Buyi suppressed a smile, and he understood Wang Buyi's intention.
"You have to say this clearly, what's wrong with me?" Wang Buxu glanced at Zhang Buyi, this guy...
There are more and more dirty words, and I don’t know who I learned them from.
"Zhang Liang originally wanted to show off his skills, but Zhang Han blocked him when he showed half of it. Now the young master took action and randomly arranged a few sentences, completely blocking Zhang Han." Thinking of this incident, Zhang Buyi said.
I thought it was a little funny.
Disguise a scout headquarters, deliberately pretend to be an accident to attract the Qin army, and then deliberately throw some information to them, so that more Qin troops know their situation.
In order to achieve the purpose of making the Qin army confused and unable to fight anymore.
This plan can only be said to be half successful, although it is already very good.
But Zhang Buyi still subconsciously remembered what Zhang Liang said before, this plan will definitely enable the young master to win without a fight.
Look, how confident you are...
"Are you sure you don't want to change it? Zhang Liang is going to be the prime minister!" Wang Buxu looked at Zhang Buyi with some sympathy. This guy is good at everything, but he has a bad mouth.
I have treated him more than once, but I can't change it.
Finally, I stopped arranging myself and started arranging my ministers.
"..." Zhang Buyi was stunned for a moment and secretly cursed himself for being a fool. It should be easy to guess that Zhang Liang is the prime minister, and Chen Ping may also be the prime minister in the future.
After all, these two of Wang Buxu's subordinates are pretty good, and the others feel a bit inferior compared to them.
If this word gets out...
Kill and silence?
No, it’s Sima Xin who’s the second-rate guy. He’ll definitely spread the word. He didn’t even drink, so why did he get drunk?
A strong desire to survive came over me...
"Ha? Young Master, what I mean is that Zhang Liang's move is a good thing! It is a great kindness!
Think about it, Zhang Liang's plan caused tens of thousands of enemy troops to flee, and the morale of the army was in chaos, forcing Zhang Han to go north to cross the river to survive. We still have to be in a stalemate while Zhang Han can't move, and the scope that needs to be paid attention to is also much larger.
Now that Zhang Han is about to reach the river, doesn't this mean we have narrowed our scope?
Doesn't this further bring the advantage of the battle to our side?
Moreover, the young master ordered Peng Yue to defend on the north bank of the river, which made Zhang Han even more desperate. Even if he built dozens of pontoon bridges, the number of people who could pass through them at one time was limited. Even if Peng Yue only had a thousand people, he could make them all jump.
Go into the river to feed the fish.
Good! Great good! The one who understands young masters is none other than Zhang Liang! I see, with Zhang Liang’s talent and scheming, he will definitely be the prime minister in the future..."
Sima Xin pursed his lips and looked at Zhang Buyi with contempt.
Then he wrote, "Buyi said, I am the only one who understands the young master well, and I will treat him accordingly!"
"Okay!" Wang Buxian was a little speechless. Isn't it good for his mouth to have dessert? He had to dig so many holes for himself.
With his bad talk, I don’t know how many people he will offend in the future.
Immediately afterwards, Wang Buxu looked at Sima Xin again. He was also careless. If he was not disciplined, he would be killed sooner or later.
"Don't write nonsense!"
Sima Xin nodded, then clicked and broke the bamboo slip he had just written on in half.
Seeing this, Zhang Buyi's brows suddenly tightened, and he couldn't help but cursed in his heart, 'Damn it, did you really write something stupid like this?'
Not to be outdone, Sima Xin replied with her eyes: 'I just wrote randomly, what can you do?'
Wang Buxian had no time to pay attention to the battle of wits and courage between these two living treasures. Anyway, he felt quite happy to have these two people around him.
But this is not a happy moment.
If Zhang Han moves, then his original plan will also have to move.
And considering the current communication conditions, he must make arrangements as soon as possible.
Otherwise, when the time comes, some people will excitedly rush outside Xingyang with their army to wait for the decisive battle, but they will be dumbfounded when they arrive. Where are the people? Am I going to fight the air with wits and courage, and fight bloody battles?
"Instruct this formation to stop training immediately and prepare to go to war!"
"Instruct Xingyang and Aocang to leave 20,000 people each, and the rest are ready to go out!"
"Send an order to Chen Tieshan to go directly to the river via Xingyang!"
