Three Kingdoms
Chapter 2423 Double Standards
The battle, which was evenly matched, lasted for a day.
It's just a novice pecking at a novice, so it's quite lively.
The arrows were going up and down, whizzing back and forth, but basically they were just listening to the excitement. Normally, archers will not shoot easily except for covering shots. They will try their best to hit the target, because human physical strength is always limited. Drawing too many bows will make the arms sore and the strength will decrease. In the end, even if you have a good chance, you may not be able to hit it.
The same goes for those young men with swords and guns. They stood crookedly, their arms and legs were trembling wildly, and some of them could only chop and poke randomly with their eyes closed. If Wu Ban hadn't been watching, he would have slapped the guy who was slashing and stabbing down, and then let him go. If he moves rocks and knocks trees, he may end up causing an own mistake.
Zhuge Liang was frowning the whole time. .
Although Di Ren's combat effectiveness is indeed not very good, his current performance is indeed somewhat unexpectedly poor.
Zhuge Liang controlled the soldiers to prevent Wu Ban's soldiers from getting too far forward, so the situation displayed on the city wall was relatively strange.
The whole day ended in such a messy and unsightly offensive and defensive battle.
The Di people seemed to be tired of singing and dancing, so they retreated.
Although Minzhuang of Nian Di didn't know exactly how he repelled these Di people, it didn't stop them from cheering, jumping for joy, and celebrating each other.
The magistrate of Jiandi County on the top of the city took a deep breath and wiped the sweat from his head. It was such a fierce battle! We are victorious! Naturally, this all depends on the envoy’s good command!
Zhuge Liang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he asked the magistrate of Miandi County to calm down and comfort the people, and then called Wu Ban to the front.
During the last Sichuan-Sichuan turmoil, Wu Ban, or rather the Wu family, cautiously maintained a relatively hussar-oriented attitude, which could be regarded as showing some loyalty. Therefore, in the battle against the Di people , Wu Ban, as a relatively good general among Sichuan and Sichuan, was reactivated and responsible for cooperating with Zhuge Liang's actions.
General Wu Zhuge Liang looked at the direction in which the Di people were retreating. How did they feel about the performance of the Di people?
Wu Ban was also thinking. To be honest, this defensive victory was so easy that Wu Ban even felt that he did not need any reinforcements at all. With the 300 soldiers he led, it was impossible to say that he could kill these enemies to pieces.
These Di thieves have no structure, neither camp nor formation, and they probably don’t even have a scout post. Wu Ban said slowly, if it were normal, I would want to lead troops at night and raid their camp.
Zhuge Liang glanced at Wu Ban. General Wu had lived in Sichuan and Sichuan for a long time. He knew that the Di people were incapable of fighting. How brave could he be?
Wu Ban smiled and said: "Of course it's a little strange." Looking down from a distance in the mountains and forests, there are shadows of human figures moving, and there are even rumors that the red-blooded soldiers of the Di people can fight tigers and leopards. Now these people below the city may be a lure for the enemy. Just like deceiving the lieutenant of Jiandi County, if you want to lead our army out of the city, you can ambush us in the mountain road.
If it were an ordinary person, Wu Ban might have concealed three points, or kept half, but when facing Zhuge Liang, Wu Ban did not dare to do this. On the one hand, Zhuge Liang is smart enough. Playing smart in front of him will only make Zhuge Liang see through and arouse Zhuge Liang's disgust. On the other hand, Wu Ban has observed that Zhuge Liang has been staring at the mountains and forests in the distance, and he must have understood it. problem, so it would be better to state it clearly.
Zhuge Liang nodded and said: "What Yuan Xiong said is true. It's just that these people are not necessarily to lure you and me, but to lure follow-up reinforcements."
Reinforcements? Wu Ban was stunned for a moment and then thought for a moment.
Just as Zhuge Liang said, although the Di people were in high spirits on the first day, singing and dancing, rushing around without fear of life and death, and seemed extremely brave, their morale became much weaker on the second day. After two rounds of arrows were fired from the city wall during the siege, they left a few corpses and retreated hastily. Then they struggled for a while. They couldn't attack two or three times for a long time. Even the Di people behind them were singing and dancing. Not moving anymore.
Although the colorful leader of the Di people was furious and even tied a few retreating guys in front of the formation and whipped them, it had no effect. As dusk approached, these Di people even withdrew their troops early and looked downcast. Withdrew.
Magistrate Jiandi was so excited that he was jumping up and down, just like those netizens in later generations who thought they understood everything they watched. They thought he was good enough and was like the god of war. At the end of the second day, he didn't say anything. Instead, he raised his neck, patted this shoulder, shook that arm, opened his mouth to say one drum, two drums, etc., and closed his mouth to say something in the military law, as if he had just read a few words of Zheng Burke's paragraph. I feel impatient all over and feel that I already know everything.
In the middle of the night the next day, the Di people launched another hilarious night attack, then attacked randomly and then retreated again.
When the sun rose on the third day, the number of Di people seemed to be even smaller than on the second day. Even those who were arrayed in place were all crooked and looked completely different from those on the first day. people. The siege of the city was inked for a long time without moving, taking one step forward and two steps back, and as soon as the arrows hit the ground at the top of the city, they scattered with a loud bang and ran back.
The whole morning, there wasn't even a decent offensive.
Magistrate Jiandi was even more excited. He stood on the edge of the battlements, gesticulating, shouting, and even didn't bother to look at Zhuge Liang.
The subsequent evolution was almost as expected by Zhuge Liang. When reinforcements from Sichuan and Sichuan appeared, the Di people fled in panic, and the county magistrate of Jiandi was like a chicken blood, screaming to leave the city to pursue!
Our reinforcements have arrived!
You have defended Jiandi and your homeland, but is this enough?
Today, the Di thieves are frustrated, but our army is full of energy, so we should hunt them down!
Magistrate Jiandi raised his arms and shouted, his expression extremely excited, or in other words, excited.
Don't chase poor bandits. Zhuge Liang said calmly.
The magistrate of Jiandi County was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the Di people who began to retreat into the mountains and forests after learning about the arrival of Han reinforcements. He suddenly shouted unwillingly, "The Di thieves destroyed my fields and destroyed my village." Burning my house, killing my people, all these things, how can I not avenge them with great hatred? !
How can a good man be timid and avoid fighting? ! Dear fellow villagers, if you are brave and courageous, you should follow me to make great achievements and drive out the Di thieves!
Zhuge Liang tried again to persuade him, but if he pursued so rashly, he might be ambushed.
Such an army of thieves has no rules and no warriors. How can they lay an ambush? Magistrate Jiandi smiled and said, if there was an ambush, it would just be a kid drawing the sword, and it would hurt him more, so why should he be afraid? !
Zhuge Liang advised him that the reinforcements were far away and were physically exhausted. It would be difficult to pursue them, so it was better to give up and wait for the follow-up plan.
Jian Di laughed loudly, saying that our army was tired, so why were Di thieves? If the envoy is unwilling to send out the army, he can divide the troops into a certain group with five hundred troops. He will definitely defeat the traitor and behead his head in front of the battle array. He can comfort the wounded village elders and pay homage to the souls of innocent people in heaven!
Zhuge Liang looked at Magistrate Miandi and sighed.
Five hundred soldiers! Magistrate Jiandi stared, stretched out a palm and waved it in the air, as if he would slap Zhuge Liang in the face if he dared not agree.
Zhuge Liang could only agree. The magistrate of Jiandi County proudly ordered his soldiers, led the army to open the city gate, and launched a pursuit of the escaped Di people.
Wu Ban stood behind Zhuge Liang, looking at the magistrate of Miandi County who was rushing north to pursue him, and whispered: Since he is going to seek death, why should Zhuge persuade him to do it? What's more, if you don't fall into the trap, wouldn't it be more difficult to lure the Di people out of the mountain?
Zhuge Liang was silent for a moment and said: I just pity these soldiers.
Wu Ban squinted his eyes at Zhuge Liang, and twitched the corner of his mouth slightly. He was obviously slandering, but he didn't know whether he was talking about the kindness of women, or about pretentiousness, etc.
Magistrate Jiandi did not realize that what he was chasing after was not merit, but death. He also didn't expect that the Di people could retreat so quickly. These Di people were barefoot and obviously didn't wear shoes, but they ran faster than the Han people who wore shoes.
The Di people have lived in the mountains and forests since they were young, and are familiar with where they can walk and where they can't. However, the five hundred soldiers led by the county magistrate Jiandi came from other places and were not familiar with the mountain roads here at all. As I chased, I found that I seemed to be chasing further and further away. Before, I could still see some silhouettes of Di people, but after that, I couldn't even see the shadows of these Di people.
County honor! Something is wrong, why don't we withdraw our troops first?
Magistrate Jiandi was breathing heavily, his eyes still fixed in the distance and unwilling to look back, no! Keep chasing! We must catch up. We must be almost the same. If we catch up, we will win!
The village chief felt a little uneasy. He came from a nearby county and was not familiar with the terrain here. However, the mountains here are high and densely forested. It looked like an easy place for an ambush. It was really hard to catch up so blindly. Is it good?
Send the order! The magistrate of Jiandi County stared at the village commander fiercely and continued to pursue! Otherwise, military law will be dealt with!
Did Magistrate Jiandi really not know the danger? Obviously not. But just like many people will still do certain things even though they know they are dangerous. At this moment, the mentality of luck takes over. Greed suppresses the reason under the body and rubs it at will. Even though the reason makes some subtle noises, It will also be ignored as a moan of enjoyment.
The current magistrate of Jiandi County believed that his previous cowardice was a shame. Especially for being afraid of Di Ren who performed so poorly in the first place, it was simply a disgrace! If he had known that Di Ren was in such a situation, why would he have been afraid and worried, shirk responsibility, and let Zhuge Liang take charge of the overall situation?
It's better now. Everyone knows that when the Di people attacked, he was helpless and timid.
The only way to change this situation is to gain merit!
Only the blood of Di people can wash away those stupid actions before.
What's more, during these three days of fighting, Magistrate Jiandi also came to the front line and fought hard. It can be said that he personally experienced the fighting power of the Di people and gained a higher evaluation of his own bravery.
With such an enemy, such an opponent, even if there is an ambush, what can he do?
Under the fierce and strict orders of the Jiandi County Magistrate, the village commander couldn't help but be a little stunned, and then he had no choice but to give the order for the soldiers to continue to pursue forward.
The magistrate of Jiandi County especially felt that his morale was low, so he pulled his neck and shouted: The military law of the Han Dynasty, those who are afraid in battle, behead! Now the battle achievements are before our eyes, and the time to make achievements is now! If you are cowardly and do not fight, military law will be ruthless! Well, now he has forgotten his previous cowardly behavior and began to hate the cowardice of others.
In fact, magistrate Jiandi is not the only one who does this, but also most people with double standards.
One body with two sides, one body with two labels.
Under such circumstances, the commander of the village could only make arrangements as securely as possible, allowing fifty soldiers to form the front line in a forward formation, clearing the way in front, while the other soldiers lagged slightly behind and continued to pursue.
The mountain mist blew past, swaying the treetops and making a soft sound.
The commander seemed to feel something was unusual. He raised his fist to indicate that the entire army was on alert, and then looked around to check the situation.
But before the village chief could see anything, the county magistrate from behind already shouted impatiently: What are you doing? ! Don't continue to pursue forward! quick! Faster! Everyone, move, move!
Magistrate Jian Di believed that it was already getting late, and it would be almost dark in about two hours, and the Di people would definitely need to rest, cook, and adjust, so they pursued him at this time. Isn't it the time when Di people are at their weakest and most defenseless?
Magistrate Jiandi even imagined what a wonderful scene it was. He was about to laugh, but when he saw the soldiers paused, he felt as if he had woken up from a dream worth ten million before receiving the prize. He was filled with hatred. The roots of my teeth are itchy. Damn it, what are you doing? !
Before Magistrate Jiandi finished speaking, a heart-stopping sound suddenly came from the mountains and forests!
Whoosh!
The next moment, many figures appeared on both sides of the mountain road, all raising their bows and aiming at Magistrate Maandi and his party!
A dense rain of arrows roared towards them, and the few Han soldiers at the front didn't even have time to raise their shields to block, before they were hit by the arrows. Without even a grunt, they were shot like hedgehogs and fell to the sky.
The soldiers of the Han army behind were also in chaos. Even the swordsmen with shields didn't know which side to block for a moment. It seemed that arrows were everywhere and there were enemies everywhere.
The spearmen and archers without shields were even more at a loss. Those who were hit by arrows screamed and fell to the ground, while those who were not hit by arrows didn't know whether to rush forward or flee backward.
With every roar in the air, Han soldiers fell.
Fight out! The chief of the camp shouted, "Go back!" Breakout!
The magistrate of Jiandi County grabbed the village chief, no! Kill to both sides!
Although he was ambushed, the thinking of Magistrate Jian Di has not changed yet. He believes that this is just a small wave of Di people responsible for cutting off the rear. As long as these Di people are defeated, it means that the chrysanthemums of the large Di people are exposed.
But the commander who has more battlefield experience knows that if he has time to arrange archers on both sides, doesn't he have time to arrange more traps? Could it be that the Di people only have archers and no melee soldiers? The commander didn't know whether he could really kill them by charging to both sides, but he knew that the damage would be great, and even the entire army would be annihilated.
The village chief tried to shake off Magistrate Miandi's hand, but he didn't expect Magistrate Miandi to grab him tightly and couldn't shake him off for a while!
grass!
The village chief was angry, but he didn't expect that Magistrate Miandi would come to chop him with a knife!
The village chief quickly held up Magistrate Miandi's sword. Are you crazy? !
Magistrate Jiandi's red eyes howled like a wild beast that had lost its mind.
People with double standards often have another additional attribute that is given for free, and they are in trouble.
Because the commander of the village and the magistrate of Jiandi County could not hold back, the surrounding soldiers could not help but stop for a moment, and under such a stalemate, they were shot one after another and fell to the ground!
The commander of the village resisted the urge to stab the magistrate to death, slapped the magistrate to the ground, got rid of his entanglement, shouted the order again, and raised his shield! Go back and rush out! Although the village chief was very angry because of Magistrate Jiandi's behavior, killing his boss in battle was still a very serious matter, even if the boss was an idiot. The county magistrate of Jian Di can die in the hands of Di people, but his sword cannot be contaminated.
The remaining sword and shield wielders raised their shields and used their shields to block the vital points in front of them. They leaned forward, almost trying their best to huddle all the vital points behind the shield, and broke out backwards.
However, during the time when the village chief and the Jiandi County Magistrate were fighting, the Di people had already completed the siege. The Di people, dressed in colorful clothes and with disheveled hair, held up spears, iron forks, and even wooden sticks and bamboo spears. The retreat route of the Han army was blocked tightly!
Every time the Han soldiers took a step forward, they had to withstand attacks from many directions.
This is a mountain road dyed red with blood
Standing on the top of the mountain, Yang Wanwan laughed loudly as he looked at the Han troops who were besieged on the mountain road. The Han people were nothing more than that! Who said the Han people are scary? In front of me, you can fight as much as you want, kill as you want! Ah ha ha ha ha
The Di people around Yang Wanwan were also excited and raised their arms and shouted.
Of course, they seemed to have forgotten that they were ambushing the Han soldiers in the mountain road with several times the number of Han troops.
No matter what, we won the battle anyway, right?
Victory is all that matters. This is the most important thing for both Di Ren and Yang Wanwan.
The besieged Han soldiers failed to rush out in the end, and the Di people also captured the county magistrate. What’s interesting is that the magistrate of the county who was so fierce that he wanted to use a knife on his own people was crying at this moment. A child was forced to kowtow on the ground and beg for mercy.
The Di people wanted to kill the magistrate of Jiandi County, but Yang Wanwan ordered to stop him. Keep him, it will be useful!
Yang Wanwan stood on the rocks on the hillside, with his hands on his hips, looking extraordinary.
Long live the king!
Long live!
The sound was a little messy at first, but it soon became tidy.
An uncontrollable smile appeared on Yang Wanwan's face. He enjoyed such cheers and moments like this, but he also knew that this was not the final result and it was not the time to celebrate yet. He stroked his chest and greeted the cheering people. He bowed slightly when he entered the group, like an actor taking his last breaths. Then stand up straight, raise your arms, and press down hard.
The shouts of the crowd stopped, and everyone's eyes focused on him eagerly.
Yang Qianwan took a deep breath, and then raised his voice and said: Everyone!
The people held their breath and listened to every word he said.
The three-colored Han people say they dominate the world with their cavalry and have no rivals! But today, here, you see with your own eyes, you have done it with your own hands, the Han people are not invincible!
On the plains, we may not be able to defeat the Han people, but in the mountains and forests, we are the kings of the mountains and forests!
Who are the Han people? ! They are all our defeated generals!
Send the order! Raise the army! attack!
