Chapter 2245 Zhang Wenyuan VS Fu Cunshen


    Chapter 2242: Zhang Wenyuan VS Fu Cunshen


    Sun Lingming came from afar to fight Kong Peng, so this battle is inevitable.


    But Kong Peng is not alone. In addition to the support of the Tang army, he also has two extremely powerful brothers, Wang Shi and Wang Xiang.


    When they attacked Fenglingdu for the first time, Lu Bu and Kong Peng fought for a day and a night. During Kong Peng''s indulgence by Lu Bu, it was Wang Shi and Wang Xiang who disrupted the Qin army''s deployment.


    Kong Peng was entangled by Lu Bu. Zhang Liao naturally would not let go of such a good opportunity, so he personally took Ren Bihe, Ying Hua and others to participate in the attack, but he did not expect to be defeated by Wang Shi and Wang Xiang.


    Zhang Liao and Ying Hua joined forces and were still defeated by Wang Shi, while Ren Bi was also defeated by Wang Xiang.


    If Wang Shi hadn''t recognized Zhang Liao and Zhang Liao was wearing a mask, Zhang Liao might have died in battle.


    After Zhang Liao and others retreated, soldiers alone naturally could not defeat Wang Shi and Wang Xiang. These two men disrupted the attack on the Qin army, which made the Tang army defend Fenglingdu.


    Therefore, if you want to seize Fenglingdu, Kong Peng is just the biggest obstacle, and the harm of Wang Shi and Wang Xiang is also quite great. You must deal with them with life and death.


    The first failure was because he had no idea about his opponent. Zhang Liao, who had suffered a loss, would naturally not eat it again, so he was naturally extremely cautious about the next arrangement.


    Now that Kong Peng has Sun Lingming dealt with, Zhang Liao only needs to think about the candidates to deal with Wang Shi and Wang Xiang, and prevent these two from interfering in the battle between Sun Lingming and Kong Peng.


    Although Lu Bu was defeated by Kong Peng and was injured, his injury was not too serious and he could still participate in the battle. If he took action, he would be fine to restrain any of the king, lion and king elephants.


    As for the other one among the lions, Zhang Liao decided to hand it over to Arthur.


    As the number one female general of the Qin army, Arthur''s strength is obvious to all and unfathomable. He has not fully demonstrated his strength so far, so it is no problem for her to take action to deal with one of them.


    Arthur was still at Hangu Pass, and the army of Hangu Pass was under Zhang Liao''s command, so before Zhang Liao asked Luoyang for help, he directly ordered Arthur to be transferred.


    Arthur arrived before Sun Lingming, and after Sun Lingming arrived, Zhang Liao had made all the preparations.


    "According to reliable information, the 10,000 reinforcements led by the prefect of Zuo Fengling, Yuwen Tai, will arrive at Fenglingdu in at most two days."


    In the central army''s tent, Zhang Liao pointed to the map and said in a deep voice: "Once these 10,000 troops are allowed to enter Fenglingdu, it will be even more difficult to capture Fenglingdu, so Fenglingdu must be captured within two days."


    Sun Lingming, Lu Bu, Arthur, Ren Bi, Ying Hua, Cao Xing, Hao Meng and other generals all said in unison: "No."


    The next morning, under the leadership of Zhang Liao, the three Qin army moved together and rushed to Fenglingdu with great momentum.


    It was the eleven dragons in the moonlight, and the temperature in Guanzhong dropped sharply. Under the cold wind, the Yellow River had frozen before it had fallen.


    The surface of the Yellow River is frozen, and the boat cannot travel, but it can be used for people to walk, but this is not a good thing for the Qin army.


    If the surface of the Yellow River has not frozen, the Qin army can transport soldiers by ship, which will be faster and more convenient.


    But once it freezes, you can only walk over the ice, which undoubtedly limits the number of people crossing the Qin army.


    The ice layer of the Yellow River is not quite thick. Once the number of people exceeds the country, the ice layer is likely to be fractured. Therefore, the Qin army must control the number of people crossing the river and must also be dispersed. After the last failure, Zhang Liao had already summarized that except for the ice, the number of people under the umbrella was about 5,000. If there were more, it would be impossible to withstand it and break. Therefore, the lineup of the Qin army''s first attack this time was 4,000.


    In the cold wind, generals such as Sun Lingming, Lu Bu, and Arthur led 4,000 elite troops to line up on the east bank of the Yellow River, and quietly waited for Zhang Liao''s military orders in the cold wind.


    Due to the sharp drop in temperature, the Qin army also carried out emergency dress replacements and sent all the cotton coats sealed in the warehouse to the front line.


    Zhang Liao''s troops were closest to Luoyang and were the fastest to receive cotton coats, while Li Jing''s troops were second.


    As for Huo Qubing, Wei Qing''s troops who were far away in Liangzhou, had already prepared cotton coats before sending troops. After all, this time, they would definitely spend the winter in Guanzhong. If there was no cotton coat, they would be frozen to death. How could they still fight against the Tang army?


    There are quite a few princes who can fight in the Winter. In addition to Qin, wealthy countries such as Tang, Chu, Shu, Wu, and Song also have the ability to fight in winter. It is not possible that the Qin army has the financial resources that have allowed more than 200,000 troops to wear cotton coats.


    As for poor countries like the Wei and Sui Dynasty, they lack food and bullets in summer wars, so they naturally do not have the ability to fight in the Winter War. After all, the price of cotton coats is not cheap either.


    The Qin army did not lack cotton coats, so the 4,000 elite soldiers by the Yellow River all wore cotton coats, coats and armors, and cotton combat boots.


    This outfit looks much more bloated than before, and its movement ability is slower, but this does not hinder their combat effectiveness.


    "General Zhang, why haven''t you attacked?" Sun Lingming asked impatiently.


    Zhang Liao looked upstream and said slowly, "Don''t be anxious, wait."


    Sun Lingming was impatient and even more anxious when he heard this, he said, "What are you waiting for? If you keep waiting for this cold weather, it will affect the combat power of the soldiers."


    "Why are you anxious? You will fight later. Wen Yuan will definitely make a fight." Lu Bu snorted coldly.


    As soon as he finished speaking, a spy came to report it.


    "Report to the general, as expected, the upper reaches of the Yellow River have not yet frozen, and have been cut off and stored by the Tang army. The hundreds of Tang troops left in the upstream have been killed and scattered by General Hao Meng."


    "What?"


    Sun Lingming, Arthur, Lu Bu and other generals exclaimed, their eyes full of shock.


    The upper reaches of the Yellow River have not been frozen, but the water has been blocked by the Tang army. The purpose is self-evident. It must be to flood the Qin army downstream.


    Just a few days of water storage will not cause much flood, and naturally it will not flood all the Qin army on the east coast. However, if the Qin army breaks the **** and releases the water during the attack, the four thousand soldiers attacking will definitely go but never return.


    As soon as he thought of this, Sun Lingming, Lu Bu, Arthur and others were sweating profusely and said intimately: It’s so dangerous.


    Once the Qin army attacks, the other generals will not be ignored for the time being, but the three generals Sun Lingming, Lu Bu and Arthur will definitely cross the river.


    When the flood comes, although it is impossible for the three of them to drown, the soldiers will definitely be washed away. Will they want the three of them to fight alone in the Tang Dynasty?


    "This Fu Cunshen is really difficult to deal with. He actually plans to use water attack tactics to deal with our army. If Wen Yuan weren''t careful, you would be in danger this time."


    Lu Bu said with a look of fear. After all, he was still injured. If he was isolated on the other side of the river, even he would not be sure to escape unstoppable.
