Chapter 262 Siege of Lu'an

Just when the Ming army and the rebels were fighting outside Taiyuan City, a battle in Luzhou Prefecture, Shanxi was about to break out.

"Cao General, this mountain is said: Shizhu Mountain, this village is called Houmen Village. Passing through this mountain, reaching Qinyuan Yuerquan, and entering Shangdang territory!" "Huaguan Suo" Wang Guangen pointed out to Cao Wenzhao, surrounding the mountain peaks, and the green peaks.

"Not only that, this gypsum mountain does not mean that gypsum is produced in the middle of the mountain, but that 'the ointment is the liquid of the god', because it is mostly stalactites." Cao Wenzhao couldn't help but smiled slightly.

"Huaguansuo" Wang Guangen immediately laughed awkwardly when he heard this.

It turned out that Wang Guangen was the rebel general who launched a war with Zhang Xianzhong. However, the opportunity was not the best, and it was far less famous than Li Zicheng, Luo Rucai, Zhang Xianzhong, Zhang Tianlin and other rebel generals.

Later, after he defected to the rebel army, he followed Cao Wenzhao. However, his fame and status were not as good as others, so he took advantage of this opportunity to go to war and made great achievements.

However, Cao Wenzhao was originally a long-time general and had been in Shanxi for many years. He knew the mountains and rivers well, so where could he use him to make noise?

"This road is difficult to drive, only people can pass through!" Cao Wenzhao couldn't help but laugh.

"Since Yang Wenyue can defend Lu'an to the death, it must be because the mountains are high and the city is dangerous and the artillery cannot be used."

"If you want to make achievements and work hard, you will naturally have some achievements!"

Wang Guangen couldn't help but smile and said, "A gentleman's word?"

"It's hard to chase after all!" Cao Wenzhao nodded and responded.

If you want to get a living person, you will naturally have to give you enough benefits.

Wang Guangen was not Cao Wenzhao's direct subordinate, and to some extent, he was a "military supervisor" sent by Zhang Shun, so he naturally had to give him enough face.

One hundred and sixty miles from the spirit stone to Qinyuan, Cao Wenzhao's troops took two days to arrive at the foot of Qinyuan City.

Qinyuan City is only two miles away, only one mile away from Qinshui, and far away from Lu'an battlefield. How could I think I would be missed?

When Cao Dingjiao led the rebel army into the city, the magistrate of Qinyuan was having wine in the back yamen, but was dragged out by the rebel army and chopped it down. Qinyuan then went down.

Cao Wenzhao was so alert. Seeing Qinyuan City so slackened, he couldn't help but have a plan.

He quickly ordered: "Cao Dingjiao led his troops to garrison here, and Wang Guangen led his troops to attack Qinzhou day and night. The general led his troops to follow him and press the formation for him!"

Wang Guangen, the "Huaguansuo" was overjoyed when he heard this. He didn't know that the opportunity had come.

Qinyuan was two hundred miles away from Qinzhou. He traveled twice and it took only two days to reach outside Qinzhou.

The Qinzhou magistrate and the commander of the commander of the commander of Qinzhou did not expect the rebel army to be so fast. After only half a day of fighting, the commander of Qinzhou died in battle. The Qinzhou magistrate committed suicide and Qinzhou then stepped down.

When the news reached Luzhou Prefecture, the Ming army was frightened and never expected that the rebels would seize the retreat.

It turned out that the three prefectures of Zeluqin and Liao in the Ming Dynasty were the place of Shangdang in history.

This place is the Taiyuan barrier in the south, and the Hebei barrier in the east.

Now the Ming Dynasty only has two important places in the north, one is Taiyuan and the other is Beizhi.

If these two places do not exist, the capital will be difficult. If the capital does not exist, the north will not belong to the Ming Dynasty.

The land of Shangdang, "One throat and Two Songs", is the barrier between Taiyuan and Beizhi.

Zelu, Qin, Liao, Zezhou was already under the hands of Li Xin, the left commander of the South Route Army of the Rebel Army. Now he has lost Qinzhou again, leaving only Lu'an Prefecture and Liaozhou.

However, during the Qinzhou period, Lu'an Prefecture and Liaozhou could not echo each other, so Shanxi Governor Yang Wenyue naturally fell to death and could not help but say nothing.

Therefore, when he heard the rebel army surrounded the back and occupied Qinyuan and Qinzhou, he couldn't help but sigh: "In this way, it is difficult for Lufu, Taiyuan, capital, and this is also difficult for the world!"

Unexpectedly, as soon as Yang Wenyue finished speaking, soldiers had already come to report: "The army, the deputy envoy of the military preparations, Wang Zhaosheng, asked for a meeting!"

"Hurry, welcome you quickly!" Yang Wenyue was shocked when he heard this. He couldn't help but order while greeting him.

Yang Wenyue had just walked out of the door and saw a man coming over with the support of two soldiers.

Yang Wenyue hurriedly stepped forward and held it in support and said, "Zichan is not in good health. If there is anything, let the soldiers spread it with one word. Why should I work hard?"

"Fujun, I have heard of it!" Wang Zhaosheng, deputy envoy of the Jinan Army Preparation, said with a wry smile.

"When Optimus Prime was in Lu'an Prefecture, he was not able to surrender this person late, which caused a great disaster, so he is today."

"The late-birth cervix is ​​on the back, and the medicine is not a doctor, so I know I will be in the near future."

"I would rather defend this city for the Fu Army. I would like to ask the Fu Army to leave quickly and try to recover in the future!"

"Haha!" Yang Wenyue couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this, "Although today is big, where is Yang's place?"

"I lost Qin yesterday, Jin today, and Yan land will be lost tomorrow. Although the land of Ming Dynasty is vast, if you don't care about one city and one land, the land will not belong to the Ming Dynasty sooner or later."

"I am a wise minister in my life, and a wise ghost in my life. How can I give birth to a child by my son?"

After Yang Wenyue stayed in Lu'an Prefecture, Cao Wenzhao and Wang Guangen arrived soon, and together with the left commander Li Xin and Li Fuchen, four camps of troops surrounded Lu'an Prefecture.

Lu'an Prefecture was the former land of Shangdang and was built on Huguan City.

The city is twenty miles in a circumference, three or two meters high, two meters wide, and four gates.

Among them is the "Imperial City" of Prince Shen's Mansion, which is Zhou Sanli, which can be described as a "double-layer city defense system".

Of course, if it were just like this, Lu'an Prefecture would not be enough to reject the "King Army".

It turned out that since the rebel army left Lu'an Prefecture, Zezhou and other places, the gentry and officials in the two places learned their mistakes and fortified artillery, built fortresses, trained soldiers, and tried to protect themselves.

Among them, the best one is naturally Zhang Shun’s old acquaintance, King Zhaosheng of Ji Nan Bing.

In the battle of Lingchuan, the rebel army took the lead in breaking through Wang Zhaosheng's troops. Liu Cheng took the opportunity to kill Song Tongyin, the governor of Shanxi. Zhang Shun became famous, and Wang Zhaosheng was naturally ashamed.

From then on, he worked hard to train his soldiers and cast artillery to try to make others feel so much hatred.

Although Lu'an Prefecture's smelting technology is not as famous as Yangcheng, it is also the famous "Run Guoye".

Wang Zhaosheng trained two thousand soldiers here and cast countless fire guns, cannons, armors, and weapons of all kinds.

As a result, no one expected that by accident, the rebel army grew stronger and stronger, and Zhang Shun became the king of Qin.

Although this caused Wang Zhaosheng to never have the chance to avenge him again in his life, he also cheated Li Xin, the left commander of the Southern Route Army.

It turned out that Li Xin had a total of five camps of troops, but the horses entered Zhong's first camp and went west out of Yuanqu, and Wei Zhiyou's first camp went north to Yueyang, resulting in only three camps of troops left under Li Xin's command.

Among these three battalions, one battalion had to be reserved to guard Zezhou, which directly led to Li Xin being able to use 6,000 troops to fight against Shanxi Governor Yang Wenyue and Wang Zhaosheng, deputy envoy of the southern military preparation of Jinan.

The other party couldn't hide, so Li Xin and others naturally had no choice.

"Don't you have any artillery?" Cao Wenzhao frowned, looked at the dense cannons on the city, and turned his head to ask Li Xin.

Li Xin naturally knew what Cao Wenzhao meant, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "King Shun equipped us with thirty cannons of the sky-high generals, fifteen of which were left in the hands of the nephew, and used to attack Zhengzhou, Kaifeng and other cities."

"The ten gates are left in Hong Shuai's hands and used to deal with the enemies in the direction of Daming Mansion. We only have five gates in our hands."

"Five Gates?" Cao Wenzhao's voice couldn't help but rise.
