Chapter 771 Crossing mountains and wading through rivers and lakes, traveling at night and sleeping during the day, surprise attack on Guancheng ([-])

Chapter 772 Crossing Mountains and Waters, Traveling at Night and Hiding During the Day, Surprise Attack on Guancheng ([-])

This time, their vanguard southern army followed a completely different marching route from that of the southeast, west, and central armies. It can be said that the fourth army followed the road directly from the Youhan River without any consideration.

But they are taking another, more dangerous path with Taurus.

In the first night's march alone, they lost nearly a hundred people!
It can be seen that the road is dangerous!

Nocturnal and daytime.

After two days of non-stop rushing, more than 1000 people from Wei Yan arrived in Nangouli.

"It's almost there." Wei Yan saw that the weather had begun to clear up, and immediately ordered his subordinates to go and arrange for the soldiers to set up camp.

Uncle Yang still came to report the military situation to Wei Yan as usual: "General Wei Yan. This time we lost a total of 320 and eight people in the night march. So far, the attack has lost 580 and nine people. More than one hundred of them are confirmed dead."

"There are already more than 500 people." Wei Yan frowned, the road to Shu was difficult, and this was Wei Yan's first experience.

That arrangement was thought up by Uncle Yang and his generals, with the map given by Lu Bu, and both he and Gao Shun had scouted it before.

But unexpectedly, so many people were lost.

Wei Yan heard that the loss was not so much the day before yesterday, so he couldn't help asking: "What happened today, more than 300 people were lost?"

Uncle Yang wiped his sweat: "There's no way, General Wei Yan, the road where we're waiting for the march is too dangerous, and there's very little visibility tonight, so we can't light a torch."

Uncle Yang sighed.

Right now, only more than [-] people have been lost, which is already excellent in Uncle Yang's opinion.

Uncle Yang also knew that this time, they had no choice but to take down Guancheng quickly.As for why no torches are used.

Their army has more than 1 people. If torches are used, the mountains and plains will be full of flames, so there is nothing to hide.

Uncle Yang even explained: "Additionally, many soldiers are not used to traveling at night, if it wasn't for General Wei Yan and your headquarters going over the mountain camp to lead the way, I'm afraid we will suffer even more losses!

Now in the area of ​​Nangouli, only 500 people have been lost! "

In addition to being unbearable, Uncle Yang was very emotional.

After several days of traveling at night, he finally understood the power of Wei Yan's camp over the mountain.

Uncle Yang knew that if it weren't for the guidance of the Fanshan Camp, it would not be an easy task for their [-] troops to come out alive!

Not to mention being able to get the army out completely, Uncle Yang felt that if he had led the troops, he might have been able to get out half of them, which is already thankful.

It's totally impossible to do what Wei Yan did.

Wei Yan nodded: "We've reached Nangouli now, not far from the Guancheng. Send an order to cheer up the soldiers! The battle is about to start!"

"Yes!" Uncle Yang nodded immediately.

Forward Wei Yan's explanation layer by layer.

The soldiers who thought they were only halfway through the journey were extremely excited.

"Are you actually in the South Ditch? My dear! Our speed is too fast! It's only three days? It's not even three days!"

"Haha! The defenders of Guancheng certainly didn't expect that there would be an army like me! Walking at night and lying down during the day!"

After hearing Wei Yan's order, the soldiers were all shocked.

Countless soldiers didn't care about rest, looking for stones to sharpen their knives and trim their stomachs, and get ready for battle.

Later, when Wei Yan heard the report from his subordinates, he had to force the soldiers to rest: "Don't delay the rest time! You have to march tonight, so hurry up and go to rest after eating! Don't delay!"

Even under Wei Yan's coercive order.

There were also some soldiers who got up and sharpened their knives, so excited that they couldn't sleep.

That night.

Under the moonlight, the army brought by Wei Yan came out of the mountains and marched along the Youhan River beach towards Guancheng.

But by the third watch, they were almost near Guancheng.

Uncle Yang was even more excited and said: "General Wei Yan, we are about to arrive at Guancheng! Shall I attack Guancheng at night? We will be caught off guard?"

Uncle Yang sent out scouts, and after knowing that Guancheng was only a few miles away from them, he couldn't hold back his excited interest.

"No!" Wei Yan immediately refused: "The order will go on, and the whole army will rest in three batches. One batch will rest, the other will watch the night, and the other will cut down the surrounding population, and build camps to make siege equipment!"

Uncle Yang's proposal, Wei Yan directly rejected.

Wei Yan even reprimanded: "Don't be blinded by the things in front of you, have you ever thought about what kind of situation I will fall into if I can't beat Guancheng?
One is drumming, another is declining, and three is exhausting.

Since we have an absolute advantage, why take risks?As long as I don't get exposed, it's the same day and night.

In addition, do you think that we can ascend to the Guancheng only by relying on our flesh and blood without using equipment?
Say [-], even if we can get on board, what price will we have to pay?Guancheng is just one of our goals, Baishuiguan is our real battlefield.

Remember what I taught you today, don't rush to make a decision, you must think and think!Every decision must be extremely cautious!Otherwise, you will fall into the abyss without even knowing it! "

Seeing that Wei Yan was so serious, Uncle Yang dared not make a mistake, he quickly lowered his head and said, "It's... General Wei Yan!"

Was reprimanded by Wei Yan.

Uncle Yang didn't dare to complain at all, on the contrary he was moved.

How many people in this world can teach you so sincerely? To Uncle Yang, this is not Wei Yan's reprimand.

Instead, he was teaching him how to march.

Under Wei Yan's order, Uncle Yang was even more amazed when he recalled Wei Yan's arrangement just now.

A batch of rest, a batch of vigil, a batch of siege equipment.

It can be said that he was amazed again and again, this time the arrangement was completely watertight.

Some soldiers can rest and prepare for daytime battles. Needless to say, a group of soldiers keep watch at night, and a group of soldiers cut down surrounding trees to build camp siege equipment.

After one night, they are ready to attack the city!
"As expected of General Wei Yan! What you think is Zhoudao!"

The sky gradually turned white.

The night guard soldiers also started to rest, inspecting the camp that had just been established, Uncle Yang was filled with emotion.

"Really..." Uncle Yang was at a loss for words.

"Foresight!"

At first, Uncle Yang's idea was to attack Guancheng directly at night, but under Wei Yan's suggestion, Uncle Yang realized the danger.

Although their soldiers got ample rest during the day, after traveling at night, nearly half of their physical strength has been consumed. If they attack the city at this time, it is definitely not a good choice for them.

It's good to be able to attack in one go, but if you can't...

It will be like these dozing defenders in front of you, so what kind of fighting power can the soldiers have?If the defenders of the closed city react, go out of the city to meet them.

Then they really can't run away with eight legs!

The situation was reversed in an instant!
