Chapter 396

Xu rode with ease and saw the sound of iron teeth from afar.

"Damn it! Return to the camp. "

"Xu Shuai, don't attack the city?"

Xu he angrily said: "attack the city, but also attack a fart!"

He turned around and left in a rage. However, the morale of more than 100000 yellow turban thieves was frustrated. When he heard that there was no need to continue to attack the city today, he was relieved. Therefore, he retreated one after another and returned to the camp to correct the camp.

Xu he's face was angry as the Chinese army tent was brightly lit.

Since I started my army, I have swept Qingzhou and the Central Plains. Even Bao Xin was defeated by my general. Today, I am really upset.

After thinking about it, whether it is attacking the city or encircling the enemy cavalry, it is quite unfavorable. However, the suanzao city is small and needs careful arrangement. It is not difficult to break the city.

The key lies in the enemy's cavalry, who can come and go freely and is extremely difficult to handle.

"Go, call Zhou Su over. I have something important to discuss with him." Did not su just fight with the enemy cavalry this week? Even if he was defeated, he probably had a lot of experience. You can ask him, Xu he thinks so.

After a while, a shadow came slowly outside the tent.

"What's important at the end of Xu Shuai's summons?"

Xu he looked up and saw that Zhou Su's right shoulder was wrapped in a circle of cloth strips, soaked in blood, looking like he was dying.

"Hum, come in." Xu he frowned and said, "I'd like to ask you, today you lead the army to fight with Xiliang iron cavalry. It's estimated that you have some experience. If we don't get rid of this cavalry, our army will be constantly bothered by the enemy when we attack the city. If we want to break the city, we don't know when to wait. "

Zhou Su sighed: "there are few horses in the Central Plains. Most of the horses in the army are ridden by generals and generals, which is not enough. The enemy cavalry is very mobile."

"Let's ask the commander-in-chief to order the commander-in-chief under the command of ten thousand people to give their dismounted horses. Our army selects elite soldiers and organizes a cavalry to contain Xiliang iron cavalry with cavalry to create opportunities for the infantry to severely damage Xiliang iron cavalry."

Zhou Su suggested.

Xu he shook his head: "how much effort does it take to form a cavalry? I'm afraid it will take at least 10 days and a half months to become an army. Our army can't waste half a month."

"Well..." Zhou Su thought deeply for a while, and then said, "our army can dig a trench two feet deep and one foot wide from half a mile, one mile, and one and a half miles away. In addition, we can set more antlers and resist horses. In this way, the advantage of the enemy's cavalry in conflict will disappear."

Xu he nodded: "it's a good plan. In this case, you'll be in charge of the matter. Tomorrow morning, 30000 soldiers will dig three trenches and set up antlers to resist horses in dangerous places."

"In addition, the formation of cavalry units should also be handled together. Our army will not be without cavalry in the future."

Zhou Su immediately hugged his fist. As a result, he was involved in the wound on his shoulder because of his excessive movement. He grinned and took a breath of cold air.

"According to the general, it seems that the siege will continue tomorrow?" Zhou Su asked.

Xu He clapped his hands on the table and said coldly, "it's natural. Sour jujube is just a small town. Our army only needs to attack it continuously, and we can break it in three days."

Zhou Su was puzzled: "Xu Shuai, it would be better to postpone the attack tomorrow."

Xu and eyebrow a vertical, evil spirit is gloomy: "why?"

Zhou Su bowed his head and said, "today, the morale of more than 100000 troops is low due to the disturbance of Xiliang iron cavalry. If we attack the city tomorrow, we will inevitably suffer heavy casualties. We can recover our morale by taking a day off."

"What's more, the reason why our army attacked the city today is that there are not many siege equipment. Liu Ye seems to have been prepared for it. He has already cut down all the trees around suanzao city. It is difficult for our army to make siege equipment. If we have made a large number of ladders and siege vehicles, it will be easy to break the city."

Zhou Su clasped his fists and said, "therefore, the last general thought that it would be better to take a day off tomorrow and mobilize the army to look for trees ten miles away and make siege equipment. The last general would lead his soldiers to dig trenches."

Hearing Zhou Su say so, Xu and eyebrows a sharp, but slowly nodded.

"Well, in that case, I'll listen to you. Anyway, jujube is just a small town. It's good to be well prepared." Xu he looks slow.

Zhou Su Daxi: "in this case, the end will go down to command."

"Well, go down." Xu he nodded and allowed Zhou Su to go out of the camp immediately.

The next day, as soon as the sun rose, tens of thousands of yellow turban thieves all started up and filed out from the camp.

Seeing that thirty thousand yellow scarf thieves are far away from sour jujube, Liu Ye on the head of the city immediately frowns: "is it possible that Xu and this guy should separate troops to attack other states and counties?"

Jia Xu said with relief: "the general can rest assured that Xu he's separation of troops will only make the force weaker and weaker. Besides, there are nearly 10000 soldiers stationed in Hulao pass, and Xu Gongming is left to assist Gongda. There is no loss."

Liu Ye nods, but when he sees the action of the Yellow turban thief under the city head, he frowns again."It seems that Mengqi and Lingming led the Xiliang iron cavalry to rush into the array yesterday, and the Yellow turban thieves have come up with a solution."

Jia xushun looks at the past with Liu Ye's eyes. He sees that the Yellow turban thieves, one mile away from the city, are divided into three roads. They are digging their own ditches. The depth and width of the ditches are gradually deepening.

"Xiliang iron horse can come and go freely, but if it is trapped in the ditch, it can't come out. I can't imagine that Xu he has some ways." Liu Ye frowns and shakes his head.

Jia Xu sighed: "it's a pity that Meng Qi's general's Xiliang cavalry will greatly reduce its containment effect."

On the other hand, Yu Jin said: "it's OK. General Meng Qi can lead Xiliang cavalry to intercept and kill the enemy's food and grass. It's not a small help."

"Hurry up! Dig quickly. " Zhou Su hung an arm and yelled.

"Kill!"

In the distance, the horn sounded suddenly, and Zhou Su suddenly changed her face and looked in the direction of the horn.

Xiliang iron horse!

"Ride and shoot!"

Ma Chao gave a big drink, and more than 5000 Xiliang iron cavalry rolled up behind him and rushed forward. Under Ma Chao's command, he aimed at the yellow scarf thief in front of him with a bow and arrow.

Tens of thousands of yellow turban thieves who dug the trench did not line up, so they were naturally unprepared. Unexpectedly, Xiliang iron cavalry would suddenly rush up, and more than 5000 arrows flew out and suddenly fell down.

"Ah

Screams came one after another, and nearly a thousand yellow turban thieves fell to the ground. Naturally, the remaining yellow turban thieves did not dare to dig the trench any more. Instead, they gathered and formed an army array to prevent the enemy from invading.

After yesterday's lesson, Zhou Su could be said to have learned from his bitter experience and immediately ordered the army to form a round array to prevent Xiliang cavalry from breaking into the army.
