It's not that Quan Cong was deliberately looking for trouble, it was Zhu Huan who was too disrespectful.
Quan Cong thought that since he was already present, Zhu Huan should at least make some appearances.
As a result, this guy actually kicked a personal guard away in front of him, which was a slap in his face.
Coupled with the previous conflict between the two people, Quan Cong believed that Zhu Huan was still dissatisfied with him.
These two kicks were just for me to see.
Therefore, Quan Cong had no intention of covering up for Zhu Huan.
As for Zhu Huan, if he didn't do it in front of Quan Cong, the most he could do was curse a few words, give some more money later, and let the two guards cultivate themselves, and the matter would be over.
But in front of Quan Cong, Zhu Huan not only did not restrain himself, but actually continued to beat his subordinates in front of Quan Cong.
In the end, Jun Zheng couldn't stand it any longer, so he called the people from Jun Zheng's team and directly controlled Zhu Huan. Only then did the two personal guards escape.
However, Jun Zheng can no longer treat this matter as a trivial matter.
In addition, Quan Cong did not want to cover up for Zhu Huan, so Quan Cong directly wrote a military report on this matter, making two copies, one for Zhou Yu in Jiangling, and one for Sun Quan in Jianye.
Then Quan Cong stood still.
Before Zhu Huan's matter is resolved, we will definitely not be able to continue to implement the strategy of dividing our forces.
Not only was the morale of the army unstable, but no one except Zhu Huan could divide the troops to fight. Under such circumstances, Quan Cong felt that it was better to be still than to move, so as not to cause trouble.
But Quan Cong's inaction made Wenpin so suspicious that Wenpin did not dare to do anything, not even sending troops to test.
Quan Cong took a look and saw that it was a move made out of desperation, but it could still achieve such good results. He continued to stand still.
On the one hand, we are waiting for the punishment of Zhu Huan from the Supreme, whether to continue to retain him in the army, or to be escorted back to Jianye for disposal.
On the other hand, since Wenpin didn't take any action, he had also achieved his strategic goal, restraining Wenpin and preventing the Xiangyang army from going south to support Jiangling.
Just continue to stand still.
Things were going quite smoothly at first, but almost half a month later, Wenpin was still hiding on the front lines of Xiangyang and Fancheng, not daring to attack easily.
But who knew, suddenly a reckless man appeared from nowhere, leading ten thousand soldiers, and actually took the initiative to attack and rushed towards Quan Cong's garrison point.
This time, it was impossible to move.
Fortunately, the opponent only brought 10,000 people over, and Quan Cong also had 10,000 people. As long as they could repel the attack of these 10,000 people, the Xiangyang defenders would not dare to easily go south to support Jiangling. Quan Cong The strategic purpose can still be achieved.
Therefore, Quan Cong is still confident at this time.
As the first person to respond to the general's call to strengthen land warfare training for his soldiers, Quan Cong is still very confident in the combat capabilities of his soldiers.
It is true that the overall combat strength of the Soochow Army is indeed not as good as that of Cao Wei, and there is a slight gap with the infantry of Shu Han. But in terms of the overall situation, Quan Cong believes that the combat effectiveness of his own soldiers trained by the general's strategy is not as good as that of Cao Wei. Compared with the elite soldiers of Cao Wei, but compared with the ordinary county soldiers of Shu Han, their combat power is still stronger.
Therefore, facing the incoming Kou Feng, Quan Cong led his troops out of the stronghold to fight without any fear.
In terms of troop formation, in order to ensure nothing goes wrong, Quan Cong placed his two thousand soldiers at the forefront, using them as arrows to resist the Shuhan army's attack. They were supplemented by soldiers from Jiangxia County on both sides, and only the rear army. , is a soldier under Zhu Huan's command.
Now that Zhu Huan is temporarily detained, Quan Cong really does not dare to use the soldiers under his command for a big task. However, if Zhu Huan's soldiers are not used, Quan Cong will be at a disadvantage in this battle. It's always good to have troops in the rear, just in case.
Quan Cong even optimistically estimated that he might be able to defeat the Shu army and win without having to use the rear army.
And this confidence is based on Quan Cong's own carefully trained world soldiers.
Then, Quan Cong was slapped in the face.
Of course, this slap in the face does not mean that Quan Cong's Shangyong soldiers, who were captured by Kou, were fully suppressed and easily defeated. Quan Cong's hard work is not so worthless.
However, Quan Cong's expectations for his soldiers were a bit too high.
There is a saying that Quan Cong's own soldiers trained with Zhou Yu's training method are indeed better than the Jiangxia County soldiers on the left and right wings in terms of land combat capabilities and military formation coordination, but this is not enough to directly defeat them in the front. Kou Feng's superior soldiers.
Kou Feng's superior soldiers are not ordinary county soldiers.
Don't forget, when Zhang Xi first joined the army in his early years, the first target of his military training method was Kou Feng's troops.
It can be said that Kou Feng witnessed how Zhang Xi trained his troops bit by bit.
Not to mention fully grasping the essence of military training and drawing inferences from one example, Kou Feng still has the ability to draw from a gourd.
In addition, Kou Feng's subordinate Shangyong soldiers only maintained a strength of 25,000 people all year round, and Shangyong soldiers had only been responsible for guarding the three eastern counties. There were no large-scale battle losses in several expeditions, and the combat effectiveness of the army was , has been maintaining well.
Although it is not as good as the Northern Han Army trained by Zhuge Liang, Zhang Fei and others, it can be regarded as one of the few elite troops in the Han Army that is at least stronger in combat effectiveness than the average county soldiers.
If Quan Cong's worldly soldiers were to face the soldiers from other counties of the Han Dynasty, they might have a slight advantage, but they were not at a disadvantage against the mediocre soldiers. Quan Cong had trained his troops well.
In this way, Quan Cong was surprised that his soldiers could not gain the upper hand in the battle between the two sides, and Kou Feng was actually equally surprised that the Soochow Army's land combat capabilities could actually grow to this point. In this way, Kou Feng I am even more worried about Zhang Xi who is in Jiangling.
But then, as the battlefield situation developed, Kou Feng finally discovered some problems.
The two thousand Soochow soldiers in the middle are indeed good at fighting and have strong fighting resilience. They can always keep up with the mediocre soldiers without falling behind.
But the Soochow soldiers on the left and right wings gradually began to be unable to hold on any longer. Kou Feng decisively changed his formation, dispatching troops from the Chinese Army to put pressure on the left and right wings, trying to break through from both wings and attack the main general of the Chinese Army.
When Quan Cong saw this situation, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and sent out all the soldiers under Zhu Huan's command.
I just hope that the soldiers under Zhu Huan will not make any mistakes at this time. Otherwise, instead of defeating these thousands of Shu thieves, he may face a complete defeat.
Fortunately, although Zhu Huan's soldiers were no longer under the leadership of Zhu Huan, their combat effectiveness was still quite good. At the same time, they did not cause any trouble for Quan Cong at this critical moment.
With the support of Zhu Huan's soldiers, Quan Cong finally temporarily stabilized the two flanks and brought the situation back to a stalemate.
When the fight reached this level, Kou Feng observed the situation on the field and felt that for a while, it might be difficult to tell the winner.
Of course, Kou Feng actually has the final winner, and that is one of his three axes - charging into the battle in person.
But, now, there is no need.
Kou Feng is still very clear-headed now. He is very clear about the purpose of sending troops this time. It is just to test the reaction of the Soochow Army, not to have a showdown with the Soochow Army.
If you continue to fight, of course you can win, but the price you have to pay will probably not be small.
But now, what Kou Feng is most concerned about is not whether he can win at all, but whether it is possible for him to lead his troops south to support Jiangling.
Now it seems that the Soochow Army only has so many troops here.
As long as the Soochow army has other reinforcements, and the battle has reached such a stalemate, it is time for the ambush troops to come out to harvest the battlefield. So far, there are no traces of other Soochow armies. It can be basically judged that this is the only one on the north bank of the Han River. The Soochow Army of 10,000 people.
In this case, leaving 5,000 guards in Fancheng and 10,000 guards in Xiangyang, plus Wenpin's 20,000 naval troops, would be enough to defend Xiangfan.
The remaining 15,000 people, under the leadership of Kou Feng, can go south to support Jiangling in case Jiangling suffers a loss.
After making the calculation, Kou Feng immediately withdrew his troops to Fancheng without further entanglement with Quan Cong. At the same time, he sent Wenpin the progress of the battle in the form of a military report.
Then he asked Wenpin to mobilize his Shangyong soldiers to go south to support Jiangling.
At the same time, Quan Cong, who had finally "repelled" the Shu army, withdrew his troops and returned to the camp. He didn't care whether Zhu Huan was still guilty, so he hurriedly came to discuss what to do next.
The truth has been revealed. If you continue to stay on the north bank of the Han River, you will be in danger and may be surrounded and annihilated at any time!
In this case, the little conflict between the two people is not a big deal. If the quarrel continues, the lives of both of them may be left directly on the north bank of the Han River.
Let’s discuss quickly whether we should withdraw our troops! ! !
