Chapter 284: The Swagger Camp Straight into Chang'an

The night sky was still so blue, but the stars were gradually disappearing. A rooster crow that had disappeared for a long time came from the bottom of the mountain.

Fog has come, frost has fallen, and the fires all over the field are hidden in the boundless frost and fog, tearing into a red mist in the river valley, and everything in the world is in chaos.

The morning sun gradually emerged from the boundless chaos, and the mountains, rivers and valleys gradually began to become clear.

Xinfeng's Yan-shaped banner had been burned beyond recognition, leaving only a few strands of cloth swaying left and right in the morning wind, and a rapid blast of horns sounded outside Xinfeng City.

Zheng Lue leaned on his long sword and looked at the generals who were as cold as stone sculptures: "Immediately, deal with the last group of Yan army surrenders."

Of the more than 17,000 Xianbei surrender troops led by Dugu Qiu, Zheng Lue ordered 13,000 to be killed last night, and the rest were imprisoned in barracks. In order to reduce resistance, the sergeants of the Zhaozhao Battalion were ordered to prohibit the provision of food and water, so

This last Yan army and Xianbei army are just a bunch of lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

"General, when Wu'an Jun Bai Qi killed 400,000 Zhao troops and surrendered his troops, he also released several hundred young troops. Wasn't the killing last night not enough?" Yang Tan was very surprised.

"This is a battlefield. There is only distinction between ourselves and the enemy. There is no room for benevolence and justice."

There was silence on the vast plain, and the generals couldn't help but tremble!

Everyone understood that that heart-stopping moment was approaching head on again step by step.

Yang Tan opened his mouth, but he didn't know what he was going to say.

Zheng Lue's hoarse voice floated in the cave: "Peng Hu led his troops and horses, as well as the whole army's thunderbolts and crossbows, and drove directly into both sides of the surrounding valley. The soldiers could not be allowed to escape, and no accidents could occur. The rest of the troops

Seal the barracks."

Everyone responded loudly, and the generals' faces suddenly turned pale.

Zheng Lue pointed his sword: "This is a military order, don't be afraid or hesitant." After saying that, he turned and left, but suddenly turned around and added in a low voice, "It's just a repeat of what we did last night, it's no big deal.

, My lord has to give an account, and the court has to investigate, it’s all up to me.

Without the sound of the golden drum, an unknown raging fire suddenly ignited in the long and narrow military camp. After a burst of war horses neighing, a dense rain of arrows poured into the surrendered military camp!

The camp was roaring with tsunami-like howls and shouts, and the Yan army soldiers running wildly merged into a huge wave of people... Until that day, the heavy fog dissipated, and the valley finally gradually calmed down.

In the cold weather of early October, the red camp on the Xinfeng battlefield completely disappeared, leaving only the black tents and battle flags undulating on the mountain plateau, the melodious horns and the roar of war horses, and the troops of the Zhaozhao camp returned to a state of cleanliness.

Just before the first heavy snowfall was about to come, Zheng Lue ordered the founding temple to be built in Xinfeng to commemorate the dead soldiers and Han compatriots who died, and the whole army would eat breasts for a day!

Zheng Lue's plan is: Xinfeng is the general support fortress of the Yan army east of Chang'an. It is extremely convenient to transport food, grass and baggage, so there are 20,000 troops stationed there. Now that Xinfeng has been defeated, it is imperative to march into Chang'an; Zhuge Kan's Suzaku Camp has already

Stationed in Lantian, he was about to launch a battle to attack Chang'an. He was preparing to command the army to drive directly to Weinan, garrison Bashang, and join forces with Zhuge Kan's two armies to attack Chang'an like a pair of iron pincers, in the final battle to recapture Guanzhong!

Once in Guanzhong, the three auxiliary areas are like searching for something, and the Western Expedition is considered a success.

Chang'an, inside Xuanping Gate.

After hearing that the Jin army had successively conquered Tongguan and Wuguan, and was attacking Guanzhong from the east and south, Gao Gai and his ally Su Qinchong, who were sitting in Chang'an, fled Chang'an with more than 10,000 remaining troops. They were preparing to go north to Fuping and go to the north.

The prefectures and counties took refuge for a while and formed an alliance with the stable Qin Emperor Yao Chang to jointly resist the advance of the Jin army.

At this time, the city of Chang'an had actually become an empty city. After Murong Chong's attack, the Xianbei people massacred the Di people in Chang'an to vent their anger. Chang'an, the former capital of the Qin Kingdom, had lost its former glory. The city walls were abandoned and the palaces were not repaired.

People's livelihood is in decline and population loss is in sight. The city's population is less than 5,000 households, almost dominated by Han people.

In a wine shop in Chang'an City, the antique carved wooden windows were half open and half closed, reflecting the bright red and green trees outside the window.

A middle-aged man dressed as a businessman swaggered in, went straight to the second floor, and found a secluded place to sit down. The man looked around secretly along the window, as if he was looking for someone.

The exquisite hardwood tables are brightly painted, reflecting the plain furniture, and the quiet blue gauze curtains are occasionally blown by the breeze, filling the room with an indulgent tranquility.

Due to the war, there were not many people in the city, and the originally bustling and noisy streets were silent, like a ghost market. The originally prosperous wine shop was inevitably depressed.

Not long after, a young scholar wearing a bamboo hat, a navy blue gown that was a little faded but washed very clean, and a cloth bag hanging on his waist, also entered the wine shop alone without any hesitation.

"Your Majesty, please!"

"Would you like to stay or dine? Our hotel's wine and food have an excellent reputation in the Xuanpingmen area. We also have a complete range of dishes, including Liangzhou Hu cakes, Jiangzhou fish and dumplings, beef and mutton outside the Great Wall, and various local Guanzhong soup cakes.

There is everything you need to eat…”

The middle-aged merchant upstairs opened his eyes slightly and looked at the unfamiliar environment around him, but his attention was secretly focused on the young man in Tsing Yi who was chatting with the boy downstairs.

"Let me have a cup of tea first." The scholar in Tsing Yi said calmly. It was obvious that he was not in high spirits and had a bad appetite. The boy said "Oh" and quickly ran to the accounting room. He should have ordered him to make tea.

The scholar casually dismissed the waiter in the wine shop and went up to the second floor.

After drinking only a cup of tea, the scholar turned around and left. However, when he left, he hid a small wooden box in a hidden place under several cases.

The middle-aged businessman had been paying attention to the scholar in Tsing Yi before. When no one was paying attention, he moved to the scholar's seat, quickly took away the small wooden box, and soon left the wine shop without hesitation.

Immediately, the two disappeared in the streets of Chang'an in different directions...

Two days later, the details of Chang'an were written down as a secret military intelligence report by Jin Yiwei and delivered to the camp of Zheng Lue and Zhuge Kan.

"There is not a single soldier in Chang'an City?"

It doesn't matter that the dignified Chang'an was abandoned by Gao Gai, but the Yan army did not leave a single man to stop the Jin army! If this was not a secret report from Jin Yiwei, Zhuge Kan would not believe it.

Lieutenant General Han Xun proposed to march immediately instead of wasting time in Lantian and missing the opportunity.

The school captain Zheng Xianwei also agreed to immediately march to Chang'an, re-erect the Jin Dynasty's flag on the top of Chang'an City, and follow Xu Zongwen's farming order in Sizhou, calling on Han people from all over the country to return to Sanfu, expel the barbarians, and divide the fields equally.

"Send the order, the whole army will be lightly armed and simple, and march towards Chang'an with all our strength!"

"promise!"

"promise……"

Zhuge Kan was cautious and good at defense, so he quickly caught the opportunity this time.

Once Chang'an is controlled, the vicinity of Jingzhao will immediately become the hinterland, and Fufeng's return will be just around the corner. Tian Luo is aggressively attacking Feng Yi. As long as the three assistants fall into the hands of the Xiaoqi army, Yongzhou will be completely pacified.

!

The Zhuque Battalion broke out in Lantian. Zheng Lue had already left Xinfeng and arrived at Bashang. When the nearby cities heard about Zheng Lue and the Zhao Zhao Camp, they all surrendered and did not dare to resist. Therefore, the Zhao Zhao Battalion advanced quickly and almost effortlessly.

After blowing the dust, he arrived at the east of Chang'an City.
