Chapter 117 Bloody Battle at Ge Po Six

Rushui River.

On the bank of the river and on the plain, the sound of beating drums was deafening. Lines of soldiers and horses were neatly formed into an army formation, and the battle was imminent.

"I've been waiting for a day. We lined up like this, and the drums beat again and again, but we still didn't strike. It seems a bit silly. How long will we have to wait?"

Mu Shan was riding on a war horse, his tiger eyes were staring ahead, he couldn't bear it any longer.

"Marshal, whoever has the best patience on the battlefield is the winner!"

Jiang Lu also put on a light leather suit, stood beside Mu Shan, staring at the Rushui River all the time, heard Mu Shan's question, and said a few words of comfort: "We have to wait, when they get impatient, just The best time to attack!"

The Rushui River was in front of them, and the Yellow Turban Army on the opposite side seemed to be very defensive. If they wanted to cross the river, they had only one way to attack.

Strategies are important on the battlefield.

But most of the time it is about strength. It is not always possible to defeat the enemy by tricks. Sometimes head-to-head combat is the only way to win on the battlefield.

"The head of the family, the captain sent someone to urge us, let us rush into the army!"

"Go back to him, we're just preparing for formation, soon!" Mu Shan said coldly.

Now he is in command of the Nanyang Army, and he doesn't even want Huang Meng to dictate.

"promise!"

After the personal soldiers bowed their hands and saluted, they rode their horses towards a camp in the back.

There was a high platform built in this camp, and on the high platform, the generals of the Nanyang army were watching the battle, but they lost their patience watching, a little drowsy, and couldn't cheer up.

"What is this Wuyin soldier doing?"

"I've been here all day with the formation, and I haven't organized an attack!"

"Speaking of which, this Wuyin soldier looks really powerful!"

"It's just what it looks like on the outside. How effective it is is still unknown!"

"..."

A group of county lieutenants were discussing in twos and threes.

"Liu Juncheng, you asked me to hand over the command of the general to this person, but this person is as timid as a mouse. With him alone, can he attack Gepo?" The general Huang Meng stared indifferently in front of him, and said faintly.

His heart is not angry.

However, his previous sneak attack had seriously injured the county soldiers and lost the right to speak. Liu Jin took out all the seals of the prefect's mansion, so he had to obey orders and had to hand over the command to Mushan.

"Don't be impatient!"

Liu Jin was very stable, with the temperament of sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, he said indifferently: "Lord Captain, since I have given the command power to this person, I naturally trust him. Don't forget, he has issued a military order. , within ten days, your water will be broken, if not, I will punish him for his crime, now only one day has passed, so why be impatient!"

"Humph!"

Huang Meng snorted coldly, with a gloomy look on his face: Mu Shan, I want to see how you can break through the barrier of Ru Shui within ten days!
……

On the north bank of Rushui River.

"What's the matter with the Nanyang officers and soldiers?" Yellow Turban General Yang Zhaoyin's face was gloomy. He had been on guard all day, but the thunder was loud and the rain...was not small, but none at all.

"Look at the flag on the opposite side?" Yellow Turban General Yan Yu said in a deep voice.

"Wuyin?"

Yang Zhao frowned: "Is it the most elite Wuyin soldier of the Nanyang Army?"

"Ok!"

Yan Yu said: "We must be careful, we must not let them cross the river!"

"Don't worry, they can't cross the river!"

Yang Zhao said confidently.

……

Another two days passed.

In the first three days, the Wuyin soldiers and horses under Mu Shan's command have not been mobilized, but the sound of drums beating on behalf of the battle has not stopped at all. Not only that, he also ordered to dispatch all the soldiers and horses at the surrounding ferry crossings to gather at the main on the battlefield.

Although many county lieutenants did not approve of his order, after all, abandoning other ferries in Rushui to cross the river and concentrating here is more or less all-or-nothing.

But Mu Shan has now obtained the command of the Nanyang Army, and the generals dare not refuse to listen.

More and more Nanyang troops began to gather towards the Wuyin camp.

Although the Nanyang Army was scattered, there were tens of thousands of people gathered together. Different banners were flying in the majesty and prestige, covering the sky and covering the ground. The footsteps of each soldier were as heavy as thunder, knocking on the ground.

This made the Yellow Turban Army on the opposite side feel more irritable.

"Will the damn officers and soldiers come?"

"I really overestimated these courageous bandits!"

"The most annoying thing is the sound of the drum beating, even if you want to take a break!"

"..."

Countless Yellow Turban soldiers complained.

"Something's wrong!" General Yan Yu of the Yellow Turban Army was wearing a battle armor, holding the handle of the first knife in his hand, and looked ahead: "They still want to damage our morale!"

"What?" Yang Zhao was somewhat belated.

"Didn't you feel that although the two sides have never fought against each other on both sides of the Rushui River, they have been beating drums to cheer, and the momentum is endless. On the contrary, it was our whole-hearted defense at the beginning, but because the other party has never attacked It means that they have become a little slack, and the sound of the drums has caused a lot of disturbance. If this continues, their momentum is getting stronger and stronger, while our morale is getting weaker and weaker!"

Yan Yu said: "This is a strategy for exhausted soldiers!"

He has also read a few military books, so he sees it a little bit.

"It's really dangerous!"

Yang Zhaodao: "Then what should we do now, should we do the opposite with the sound of drums?"

"no!"

Yan Yu said: "This will put you at a disadvantage!"

"How is that good?"

"Wait!"

Yan Yu said: "It's not difficult to adjust this momentum. After all, Gepo Township is behind us. Commander Qu has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses under his command. We can change our defense and disrupt their strategy!"

"This is all a method!"

Yang Zhao nodded.

L……

Just then, it rained.

The rain was not heavy, but it continued continuously, turning the sky and the earth into a hazy area, and even the side of the river bank and the other side of the river bank could not be seen clearly.

"It's raining!"

In the Wuyin army formation, the main general Mu Shan raised his head and watched the raindrops suddenly fall from the sky. The rain was not heavy, but it was just a hazy drizzle, but when it hit his body, there was a trace of refreshment. The depressing temperature of the day dispelled.

"Master Mu, God help me, it's time!" Jiang Lu said with excitement in his face, cupping his hands.

"Now?"

Mu Shan frowned: "Wouldn't it be more difficult to cross the river when it rains!"

"No!"

Jiang Ludao: "We held each other for three days, and everyone's spirits became tense. We were fully focused, and they didn't dare to relax, but people will get tired. We are tired, and they are also tired, but no one dares to relax. This The rain has become their best excuse to relax, they must think that we will not cross the river in the rain, so this is the most empty time on the other side!"

He added in a deep voice: "It is also the time when we have the best chance to cross the river!"

"Okay, a certain company listens to you!"

Mu Jing drank in a low voice: "Zhang Gu!"

"exist!"

A few days ago Zhang Gu escorted the food and grass to the battlefield, and then was ordered by Mu Jing to prepare the ships.

"How many ships are we gathering now!"

"Report to the master, rafts, bamboo rafts, ordinary fishing boats... have gathered about a thousand, but these things are too simple and can't carry many people. According to preliminary calculations, we can ferry about 1 people at most at one time! "

"very good!"

Mu Shan said: "Where is Li Yan!"

"Here!" Li Yan came out and stood by respectfully.

"You lead the heavy-armored battalion as the rower. Once you attack, you must let me ensure that the ships don't stop and go straight to the opposite side!"

"promise!"

Li Yan took the order.

"Leihu, Zhou Cang!"

"exist!"

"The task of vanguard destroying the enemy is entrusted to you!"

"promise!"

The two generals took the lead.

"Deng Hong!"

"exist!"

"The task of the Pingshan Battalion is very heavy. I will personally lead the army to charge, but once we land on the other side, you must immediately build fortifications. We must hold our position. Whether we can stand firm depends on whether the Pingshan Battalion can stop the Yellow Turbans." Army's counterattack."

Mu Shan patted his shoulder: "I believe you can stop it!"

"Please don't worry, Marshal, I won't disappoint Marshal!"

Deng Hong is the captain of Xinye County, but since the establishment of the Pingshan Camp, he has inevitably been branded with the brand of Mushan, which cannot be washed off, so he has become the commander of Mushan, and there is also a bit of willingness in it .

"Keep the drum beating, we will move forward!"

Wearing heavy armor and holding a giant hammer, Mu Shan boarded a raft, pointed straight ahead, and said sharply and decisively, "Kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

The battle of crossing the Rushui River started.
