Chapter 44: Knife and Cannonball
Jiangjin faced the land, and the tall camps stood in layers. Zhang Hao stood on the wall of the village, looking at the camp opposite.
"I'm sure it's Brother Liu, Guan and Zhang?" Zhang Hao asked with interest.
"It's confirmed. When I heard the situation described here before, I was suspected that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were attacking the camp. Through detailed work, it was also confirmed that the three brothers Liu, Guan and Zhang had joined the Liyang Army. Chen Wen still attaches great importance to the three generals who once made military achievements in the Yellow Turban Rebellion."
Luo An reported.
Zhang Hao's expression was quite interesting. He didn't expect that he would meet Liu, Guan and Zhang, three monarchs and ministers who had been famous for all ages here. Although it was a little surprised, it could be regarded as a small surprise. Who made the three of them too famous?
Walking on the spacious village wall, I saw many engineers in front of me repairing the damaged parts of the village wall. Chen Wenjun did not care about the impact of casualties these days, but the effect was not worth it.
This loss is completely negligible to Zhang Hao.
Speaking of which, Chen Wenjun's biggest achievement was obtained by two powerful generals Guan Yu and Zhang Fei yesterday.
For a moment, the defenders who were so powerful were caught off guard and were caught by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei and a few people climbed onto the wall of the village, causing some damage.
"It is worthy of being the enemy of ten thousand people." Zhang Hao couldn't help but exclaim as he looked at the shells that were split in half and the artillery that were split into pieces by the defenders.
"Lord, what's so amazing about Guan Yu and Zhang Fei? Yesterday, all of us generals were not here. Otherwise, if we didn't talk about General Huang, General Shi and others, even if I were here, I wouldn't let Guan Yu and Zhang Fei be arrogant!
When I have the chance, I want to see what qualifications they have to be called the enemy of ten thousand people by the lord." Ling Cao said carelessly.
"If it's just solid shells, there are quite a few people in our Qian army who can split them. He can definitely resist the flower shells with the help of the Qi."
This guy had been struggling with Zhang Hao for a long time a few days ago, and finally he was sent to the Pioneer Army by Zhang Hao as he wished. With his brave and powerful personal force, he quickly controlled the soldiers sent to him. The army was relatively simple, let alone the Pioneer Army. It was suitable for this rough man.
Zhang Hao glanced at Ling Cao. Although there was no record of Ling Cao fighting with Guan Yu in history. Zhang Hao didn't like him very much. But such confidence was not easy to deal with. And in some aspects he was right, Huang Zhongdian Wei, Taishi Ci and others would not be inferior to Guan Yu.
At this time, Zhang Hao noticed the interest in Huang Zhong and others' eyes. Taishi Ci was here yesterday, but Taishi Ci was in the central army's tent. By the time he arrived, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei had been repelled.
Speaking of which, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei did not take any advantage yesterday. Although they used their strong energy to rush to the camp with shells and crossbows, few of the soldiers they brought could keep up.
Moreover, under the siege of the army, the two of them could finally be called fleeing in a panic and left with injuries.
As for destroying a few artillery and destroying some camp walls, it is nothing. At most, it is just to increase the morale in Chen Wen's army.
No matter how good the enemy is, it will not play a decisive role in the army, especially when facing Zhang Hao's technological advantages over the era.
"Okay, the referendum will help me capture them." Zhang Hao did not attack Ling Cao, but encouraged him.
The generals on Zhang Hao's side are all armed to the teeth. Not to mention the various modern alloy armors and weapons, there are also anti-sting suits inside. Wearing such equipment will obviously improve the strength. At most, let Dian Wei stare at it, so that Ling Cao will not have any problems.
Ling Cao nodded repeatedly, looking impatient, which made Zhang Hao laugh.
At this time, a guard general led two heroic young generals to the wall of the village. After seeing Zhang Hao, he immediately knelt down and saluted. The faces of the two young generals who saw Zhang Hao for the first time were filled with excitement.
"Get up quickly, you two are still injured." Zhang Hao went forward and helped the two young generals up. One of the particularly majestic young men was actually much taller than Zhang Hao, probably about 1.97 meters tall. The other one was also taller than Zhang Hao.
Most of the powerful generals of this era are tall and strong, which is not surprising.
"The king, they both joined our navy last month. They are very skilled and well-versed in water. This stronger one is Zhou Tai, and this one is Jiang Qin. They took the lead in resisting Guan Yu and Zhang Fei yesterday. The king responded to the destiny, and these talents came in response to the times."
Cheng Yuan stepped forward and introduced that, although Cheng Yuan looked silent and majestic, he was particularly familiar with the flattery skills he showed in front of Zhang Hao. Of course, he had seen too many magical things in Zhang Hao, and probably many of them were his real thoughts.
From an officer who was cut off by the navy to the most powerful naval commander in the entire Han Dynasty, this change in status and the kindness of his knowingness made Cheng Yuan's loyalty to Zhang Hao unparalleled, not to mention as a senior officer, he knew more.
In other words, he was deceived by Zhang Hao. He was similar to Huang Zhong and others. He not only pursued his status in the world, but also wanted to see other worlds and eventually become a god.
"Very good." Zhang Hao looked at Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin who were excited and unable to speak, and he could not help but feel relieved and encouraged.
"Yunbo, I'm going to take away what I love. Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai asked them to come to my personal guard first. Then let's talk about whether they want to go to the army or the navy." Zhang Hao looked at Cheng Yuan and said.
Cheng Yuan naturally would not object. Speaking of which, today's naval equipment has greatly reduced its dependence on personal courage.
After inspecting the camps and boosting morale, Zhang Hao settled in the central army. Unfortunately, in the next few days, Chen Wen seemed to give up and no more soldiers came to attack, which made Zhang Hao's idea of seeing Guan Yu and Zhang Fei with his own eyes failed. Ling Cao was also disappointed. This guy was ready to meet Guan Yu and Zhang Fei for a while.
Maybe Chen Wen also found that he could not break through the camp at all. He might have had the idea of harassing the camp so that the army could not rest with peace of mind. But they could not even break through the first floor of the camp, so how could it affect Zhang Hao's army's rest!
So I could only watch here push the camp forward step by step. However, after Zhang Hao arrived, this step by step method was also cancelled. After all, there was too much material consuming, so it was unrealistic to log on the bank of the river and could only be transported from the other side, which was too troublesome.
Chen Wen's army is now busy building camps and defense facilities.
Compared to Zhang Hao, Chen Wen had fewer choices. In order not to let Zhang Hao divide his troops to attack other counties, he could only block Zhang Hao from Hengjiangpu. However, he could not drive the unstable Zhang Hao army back to the river before. Then he had to choose to fight head-on.
As for choosing the most suitable terrain to limit Zhang Hao's artillery and cavalry, in this form, he was just a dream. He could only try his best to build the camp and defensive positions more sturdy.
Zhang Hao didn't want to waste time and energy, and was not using artillery cover to advance step by step, which made Chen Wen breathe a sigh of relief. Otherwise, he really didn't know how to face such a tactic, and he was completely powerless.
For a moment, the atmosphere in Hengjiangpu became quiet, but the preparations of both sides were still in full swing. The sky above Hengjiangpu was filled with the storm. I don’t know how many people and forces were waiting for the result of this battle that decided to belong to the entire Yangzhou.
