Chapter 28 Complaining
Most of these people really know what Longtou Valley is, because that place was once used as a place for food storage by Fan Wenhu, because it was a dead valley, as long as one end was guarded, you could rest assured. But now that I heard that so many Song troops were going to lead there, several people couldn't help but shake their heads in their hearts. Isn't this a bit too presumptuous?
However, Zhang Hongfan didn't care much about this, but continued to smile and said, "I know that many of you don't think this is a bit weird. Even Niu Fu is a big fool, he won't walk into such a place openly. I can tell you that that is my best choice, but if Niu Fu suddenly learns to be smart, it doesn't matter. Just fight to the decisive battle nearby. This is our territory, and eliminating them here is the best choice."
"But they don't have only one army, but also Zhou Feiyu's cavalry unit. These people have always been the most important elite army under Zhang Shun. He is not a general of Niu Fu's level. Couldn't he see that we are playing hard to get?"
Zhang Hongfan couldn't help but sneer, "What is Zhou Feiyu? He is just a surrendered soldier. Because he is not afraid of death, he has been promoted by Zhang Shun. In fact, it is not different from Niu Fu. We can completely eliminate them in the same way. More importantly, the war horses in Zhang Shun's hands are actually snatched from us. As long as we can destroy his cavalry, it will be difficult for him to gather a regular cavalry team from now on, which will be a huge success for us."
"But if we don't completely cut off his logistics supplies, it means that there will be a steady stream of things behind him, and then our consumption will be meaningless." Another person stood up and suggested.
Zhang Hongfan nodded, "It's right, so the key to this battle is whether we can close the door. We will give him a door to fight the dog. We must not let them run out easily. The key point I think is actually Baizhang Pass. As long as they walk there, we will block the place. Only in this way can we make the next arrangements smoothly."
Everyone looked at Zhang Hongfan. At this time, everyone had become interested in Zhang Hongfan's plan. Some even began to imagine what happened after Zhang Shun's troops were completely wiped out. But even some of these people would sneer at this plan. After all, their opponent was Zhang Shun. That guy had never suffered a loss since he appeared. If he threw all his main force here just because of Niu Fu, it would be a bit too natural.
Actually, Zhang Hongfan knew about this problem? But at this time he could only pray that God would give him such a chance, because there were too few such opportunities. If you missed it, I wouldn't be able to find a second one in your life. And he was really not sure to defeat Zhang Shun, who had a cannon. I heard that that thing could sink a ship into the bottom of the water with just one shot. Fighting them with them, what could he rely on if he didn't rely on opportunities? Everything was left to fate. Zhang Shun, I'm waiting for you here. If you die, I will die.
Since Zhang Hongfan has made up his mind, his generals can only act exactly as he thinks. After all, Zhang Hongfan has always been rigorous in his army. He is not the kind of general who can let his subordinates act casually. More importantly, he has never failed once for such a long time. It can be said that he killed Zhang Shijie, Lu Xiufu, Jiang Wanzai and others with his own strength and ran away with his head. If a general like this doesn't believe what he says, he really knows who he should believe.
So the war ahead began to be carried out according to Zhang Hongfan's requirements, and Niu Fu's attack on the city was really unstoppable. Just like what Zhang Hongfan predicted, Niu Fu's idea of siege was simply to rush forward, with no tricks at all, but such a simple tactic was successful one after another, but the materials were consumed very quickly, which made many people feel the problem. Fortunately, the materials behind were still being sent in a steady stream at this time, which made Niu Fu not take it seriously.
However, this consumption made Fatty Dong, who was in charge of logistics in the rear, worried. He had come to find Zhang Shun several times, and this time he was even more anxious. "Third brother, Lao Niu is too much. He consumed all our supplies in one battle. I can't bear it now. But he still fought in such a city, but he didn't want to find the main force of the enemy to fight them in a decisive battle. How did he fight?" Although Fatty Dong had never participated in command, he had been in the army for a long time and could see the name of the supplies from the consumption of supplies. Of course, this kind of thing was clearly seen.
Zhang Shun looked at his brother and didn't say anything for a long time. Many people thought that he was very ordinary to Fatty Dong and did not lead him troops to fight. But you should know that Zhang Shun gave him all his logistics work. If it weren't for his incomparable trust, who could have handed over all these things to a person who didn't believe it? What's more, no matter when, people in this position were the hottest. You should know that Xiao He and Zhuge Liang had done this.
Fatty Dong saw Zhang Shun silent, and immediately thought that Zhang Shun had his own difficulties. He felt sad, so he said, "If this continues like this, it will be a very unacceptable result for us. I don't know what Niu Fu is doing. Anyway, it is basically useless for him to seize those cities so far, and he has not won the hearts of the local people according to our previous tactics. It is very dangerous to continue like this. We must find a way."
Zhang Shun finally smiled bitterly and sighed softly, "I know you are very anxious, but you can't be anxious about some things. Niu Fu has now entered the trap of others. Now it depends on whether he can persist." He paused for a moment before continuing, "I don't believe that Niu Fu doesn't even have any warning. If he really looks like that, we don't need to be so persistent anymore. Old Dong, thank you for your hard work, but don't consider these things first. Now we have to do too many things. First of all, we have to wait for a result."
