Chapter 381 Calculation
Filling a trench and killing or injuring more than a thousand people did not attract much attention.
Because they have an army of tens of thousands, no one pays attention to more than a thousand people, let alone the lives of ordinary soldiers.
The next day, they continued to fill another trench, and Ling Cao used half of his men to defend the city as before.
The enemy generals still slowly filled the trenches as before.
In one day, the enemy army filled the trenches, but this time they paid a price of more than 3,000 people.
The enemy generals thought it was worth it, and they "broke" the two trenches of the enemy with less than 5,000 men, which was worthy of their celebration.
Similarly, Qu Ah defended by Gao Shun was almost in the same situation, the enemy did not have a clever command.
They wanted to use brute force to break open the two cities, then fight along the Yangtze River to Wujun, and then from Wujun to Kuaiji.
The enemy did not immediately attack the hinterland of Kuaiji County, because Zhang Yu and the others had a cavalry, and they were afraid of being cut off by the cavalry and then being eaten by separate troops.
From this point of view, they are still a bit level.
If they advance in multiple ways, Zhang Yu can use cavalry to concentrate local advantages and eat them all the way.
But they didn't, so Zhang Yu didn't do it either.
After Chen Wen and the others filled up the two trenches, they began to attack the city.
They stormed for three days in a row, with momentum like a rainbow.
"General Chen, Kuaiji is fine, we beat you down."
The person called said with a relaxed smile: "This Zhang Yu is famous. I have carefully studied his combat examples, and they are all just tricks. The real combat power is not as high as the outside rumors."
"It's still General Chen who is very powerful. He already has insight into the real situation of the enemy. No wonder he is so calm." The man said flatteringly.
That General Chen was very useful, as if he could break through the city with a wave of his hand.
After three consecutive days of attack, Chen Wen lost more than 10,000 soldiers and horses within three days.
However, what they have achieved is that they "attacked" the city several times.
As for the losses in the city, they are not clear.
In the past few days, Zhang Yu has entered Jiujiang County with his army.
"My lord, let's fight. Let's take down Jiujiang County, and then we can attack the enemy from both sides." Dian Wei weighed the two halberds in his hand and said.
Dian Wei also knew that there was going to be a double attack, but he was more concerned about whether there would be a battle.
Attacking from both sides can force the enemy to retreat.
At least it can scare the enemy.
But Zhang Yu didn't want to end like this.
If the enemy bullies you, you have to teach them a profound lesson, for example, take away all their lairs and cut off all the food routes.
"It's evil, if you want to do it, make it big." Zhang Yu said.
Immediately, Dian Wei revealed a longing look.
Zhang Yu loves to make big things, and Dian Wei knows this very well, so he is extremely looking forward to it.
Zhang Yu and the others continued to sneak, and after a few days, they arrived at a place a hundred miles outside Shouchun City.
Only then did Dian Wei react, and said excitedly: "My lord, are you going to take down Shouchun? It's too exciting."
Zhang Yu smiled slightly and said, "Shouchun is a county town, so we can hurt them all at once, and let those who deal with us know that beating us is very dangerous."
Dian Wei didn't care so much, playing Shouchun was in line with his appetite.
At this time in Shouchun, no one thought that Zhang Yu was already a hundred miles away and could attack at any time.
And Chen Wen was not in Shouchun. At this time, he was commanding an army in Danyang County to attack Wu County.
During the day, Zhang Yu and the others hid again.
After hiding, Zhang Yu received more information.
"Hehe, it seems that my character is really bad. Liu Bei's soldiers and horses have arrived, and Yuan Shu's soldiers and horses have also arrived." Zhang Yu looked at the information and said.
"My lord, didn't Liu Biao from Jingzhou also send 20,000 troops here? Why aren't you nervous at all?" Dian Wei asked suspiciously.
Jingzhou dispatched an army of 20,000. Zhang Yu had received the news a long time ago, but he did not make any moves.
That's why Dian Wei was surprised.
"Jingzhou Liu Biao? It's just a dead bone in the tomb. Now the military and political power in Jingzhou is only on the surface of Liu Biao. In fact, he can control not many soldiers and horses." Zhang Yu said.
It's not that Zhang Yu looked down on Liu Biao's 20,000 soldiers, but that Liu Biao lost control of the 20,000 soldiers before they left Jingzhou.
The benefits of Cai Mao's cooperation with Zhang Yu are too great, and Cai Mao will not give up easily.
According to intelligence, the 200,000 troops assembled in Yangzhou, as well as nearly 100,000 troops gathered by other princes and some county guards are on the way, and some of them have already arrived.
Zhang Yu also paid attention to Sun Ce's soldiers and horses. Sun Ce's speed was very fast, 20,000 soldiers and horses rushed over directly, and they would reach the boundary of Yangzhou in three days, and they could join the battlefield in a few days.
As for Zhang Yu and the others, the frontline army currently has 60,000 soldiers and horses, Ling Cao and Gao Shun each bring 30,000 soldiers and horses, and then Guo Jia leads 20,000 soldiers and horses in the rear, and the other 20,000 soldiers and horses are brought out by Zhang Yu up.
All the princes of the world are paying attention to this battle, even more so than the battle between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan.
Everyone thought Zhang Yu couldn't stop this time.
There are 300,000 soldiers and horses, and Kuaiji County and Wu County have no natural dangers to bear.
In Xuzhou, Tao Qian secretly summoned several staff members.
"If Zhang Yu fails and takes the opportunity to take down the Yangtze River Estuary. I didn't find it before, but Zhang Yu took over it. Half of the Yangtze River Estuary belongs to us in Xuzhou."
In Yanzhou, Cao Cao also summoned his subordinates and said: "Zhang Yu is doomed again this time, but he is not so easy to fail, and she has many talents under her command. If it is possible, we can help it when the time comes, and we will definitely get huge benefits .”
Jizhou, Yuan Shao: "Whoever dares to fight against me in the future, Zhang Yu will be their end."
Gongsun Zan of Youzhou: Unfortunately, we lost a lot of support. .
Liu Yu in Youzhou: You can only offend Zhang Yu, and take the opportunity to attack Liaodong. Yuan Shao is too powerful to offend.
Luoyang Liu Bei: Haha, Zhang Yu, how about the gift I gave you? If I hadn't passed on the information, Yuan Shao probably wouldn't have put in so much effort to deal with you.
Chang'an Dong Zhuo: Fight, fight well, you will fight to death, and I will go out to deal with you, and rule the world.
Everyone:...
Those who followed this battle were not optimistic about Zhang Yu, because the disadvantages were too great. The most important thing was that Zhang Yu had no danger to defend, even if he used his life to pile up, he could be flattened.
As night fell, the whole of Yangzhou was still shrouded in the shadow of war.
Zhang Yu and the others quietly came out of their hiding place.
Everyone knows that Zhang Yu likes to sneak attack, but this time they are not too prepared, because they don't believe that Zhang Yu still has the ability to divide troops at this time.
Even if there is, they are not afraid of losing a city or land. As long as they invade Wu County and Kuaiji County, Zhang Yu has no foundation and can only flee around in the end.
And Zhang Yu would always do amazing things, and at this time he was already a few miles away from Shouchun City.
