Chapter 863 Wang Lang lobbying Jia Xu
"Lu Bu actually ordered me to wait for him to defeat the Xia army."
The Qin general Wang Jian received an order from Lu Bu. Now Lu Bu regards himself as the King of Qin and dispatches troops of various military generals to fight the Xia army.
Commander-in-chief of Wang Jian is not very willing to pay attention to Lu Bu.
Li Ji, Meng Tian, Li Xin and others also received orders from Lu Bu, requiring them to gather in Luoshui.
The Xia army began to act, and Chu Tian asked Chen Qingzhi and Zhao Yun to cross the Yellow River to attack Tongguan, while he crossed the Yellow River to the west, and his troops were approaching the Luoshui River.
"You go and help Chen Qingzhi and Zhao Yun, I don't want any accidents."
Chu Tian also sent Xiao Chuo's Khitan Army as the supporter of Chen Qingzhi and Zhao Yun.
As long as you capture Tongguan, you can enter and exit Guanzhong at any time.
"I will definitely take Tongguan."
Xiao Chuo agreed.
In the white robe, Chen Qingzhi and Zhao Yun went straight to Tongguan without stopping.
In Luoyang City, Wei Wuji, Pang Juan and Xue Rengui sent troops to capture Hongnong County and attack Tongguan from the front.
The general of Tongguan was Wanyan Yinshuke, a Jin general who appeared in the Battle of Jingkang.
"The Xia army will definitely divide its troops and attack Tongguan from the rear. King Xia is very cautious. Perhaps he can use this cautious approach to break the team that attacked Tongguan first, forcing King Xia to stop attacking Wang Jian, and perhaps he can also curb this offensive by the Xia army."
Li Ji's army was stationed in Huayin County south of the Wei River to rest. When Li Ji learned that the Xia army launched the Mangshan War and the third round of offensives after the Battle of Hedong, he was still trying to break the deadlock with Wang Jian.
This is no longer a fight between the princes. Once the Qin Dynasty died, the generals of the Qin army were more angry and acted on their own ideas, not even considering Lu Bu's orders.
They even wanted to fight a hearty battle and compete with the Xia army.
Meng Tian, Li Xin and Wang Jian's army gathered, while Li Ji's army, Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Yinshu could guard Tongguan and wait for an opportunity to support the army.
Tuoba Tao and Zhou Bo's army were besieged by Yue Fei and Yang Ye in Yinzhou City.
Lu Bu seemed to issue an order, but in fact the Qin army still deployed defenses as before.
"The military generals sent by King Xia to attack Tongguan must not be mediocre."
Wanyan Zonghan and Li Ji discussed how to defend Tongguan. They had discovered that the Xia army was divided into two groups and attacked Luoshui and Tongguan at the same time.
"Only by breaking the two groups of troops first, no matter what, you can have a chance to win when fighting to the death. Otherwise, it would be better to surrender to the King of Xia."
No matter how Li Ji was, he had basically no choice in the face of the dangerous situation of the Xia army's approaching.
"Then let's make the final attempt."
Wanyan Zonghan agreed to Li Jixian's proposal to break the Xia army that attacked Tongguan.
After Lu Bu controlled Xianyang City, he led his troops to support Wang Jian, Meng Tian and Li Xin in Luoshui.
Because Chu Tian's main force attacked Luoshui, attacking Tongguan was a partial division.
Lu Bu also knew with a simple mind that if he allowed Chu Tian to cross the Luo River and cross the Wei River again, he would be in Chang'an within a few days, and the generals of Guanzhong could defend without any danger.
At the instigation of Jia Xu, Lu Bu sent troops to fight Chu Tian, hoping to establish his prestige by defeating Chu Tian.
If even the old Qin could not do something, and Lu Bu did it successfully, then Lu Bu would establish his dominance in the Qin army from then on.
The Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry, the newly recruited Iron Harriers, Iron Eagle Ruishi, Qin Ruishi, Li Jue's Feixiong Army, Zhang Xiu's Western Liang Iron Cavalry, the Sanhe Cavalry of the Han Dynasty, and the five northern army schools were all dispatched, extending for dozens of miles.
These were originally the elite troops who were brave and old Qin to deal with Chu Tian, but Lao Qin did not have the opportunity to borrow the power of these elite legions to fight Chu Tian in the final decisive battle, but fell under Lu Bu's control.
Without Lao Qin's characteristic bonus, precious characteristics such as "Chu River and Han Border", "Reform and Strengthening" disappeared together with Lao Qin's death.
Lu Bu's command ability is far worse than that of the old Qin, and the soldiers below may not be convinced. This time the decisive battle between the Qin army and the Xia army was greatly reduced.
If it weren't for Wang Jian, Li Ji, Zhou Bo, Tuoba Tao and others who were struggling to support the situation in front, perhaps the Xia army would have already captured Chang'an City.
Players and civilians in Chang'an City and Xianyang City all know that the Xia army has attacked Guanzhong and will soon break out with the main force of the Qin army to decide the decisive battle in Guanzhong.
Even if the Xia army was defeated, they could retreat to the Central Plains and take advantage of the huge population advantage of the Central Plains to rest and recuperate.
The Qin army has retreated without any further.
As soon as the King of Qin died, the various legions were already disintegrated and were defeated again. Guanzhong immediately collapsed.
Some players in Chang'an City and Xianyang City were worried that the war would burn to the two giant cities, so they ran away overnight.
Some players are reluctant to let go of Chang'an City and Xianyang City's property, believing that even if a war breaks out between the two sides, the decisive battle will be in the wilderness of Weinan, rather than Chang'an City and Xianyang City.
In addition, because all the commanders of the Chutian forces are relatively upright, even if they conquer Chang'an City and Xianyang City, they will most likely not destroy these two prosperous cities.
If the Han Empire wanted to compete for Central Asia and South Asia, then the two cities that Lao Qin had worked hard to manage were very important. Because the cost of teleportation array from Chang'an City and Xianyang City to the Western Regions Protectorate was lower than that from the Central Plains.
Despite this, Chang'an City and Xianyang City are still panicked.
Situ Wang Yun personally followed Lu Bu to command the Five Northern Army Clans, Sanhe Cavalry and Iron Eagle Sharp, who were originally controlled by Lao Qin, wanted to suppress the rebel King Xia.
In the eyes of the stubborn ministers of the Eastern Han court, the various princes destroyed the order of the Han Empire and were punished with death.
But in fact, the territory controlled by various princes had established a new order, and Xuzhou became the richest state because it was located in the hinterland of the Chutian power. After Chutian pacified Xuzhou, Xuzhou basically did not experience wars and had trade with Japan, and Japan's silver continued to flow into Xuzhou.
Wang Yun and others asked the emperor to report to the emperor and ordered the princes to stop fighting immediately and return the power to the court.
Especially the most powerful King Xia was attacking Guanzhong where the Han emperor was.
In the imperial edict to Chu Tian, the court first blamed Chu Tian for offending the emperor, and then asked Chu Tian to withdraw his troops immediately, and then handed over the military power.
"Wang Yun and the others are really a group of corrupt scholars, they are messy and can't do it."
Chu Tian threw the so-called emperor's edict into the brazier, and soon the fire spread and burned the emperor's edict to ashes.
In the chaotic world, the strong will be prey on the weak. If the military power is handed over, Chu Tian will not survive the next day.
Cao Cao pacified the north and held the emperor hostage. Even if he did not usurp the throne until he died, he would not hand over his power and support the Han Dynasty.
Not to mention whether Cao Cao really only wants to be the prime minister of Han, Cao Cao would not dare to come down if he was in such a position, otherwise Cao Cao's life would be gone soon.
Even if Liu Bei defeated Cao Cao and saved Emperor Xian of Han, Liu Bei would not be willing to hand over power to Emperor Xian of Han. At most, he would be the emperor himself, and his country name was still Han.
As a prince, you must have the awareness of the princes and speak with your fists, otherwise you will never know how to die.
"Wang Lang shouldn't disappoint me."
Chu Tian sent Wang Lang to lobby Lao Qin's old subordinates.
At this time, Wang Lang was received by Jia Xu.
"Wang Lang, a native of the East China Sea, was a counselor and the prime minister of Pei..."
Wang Lang was somewhat awe of Jia Xu, the number one strategist of the old Qin forces, and first reported to his own family.
Last time Wang Lang went to Guanzhong to lobby, Jia Xu closed the door to thank the guests, but this time Jia Xu unexpectedly received him.
"Doctor Wang doesn't need to say much. I understand your intention to come, and it is undoubtedly to let me surrender to the King of Xia."
Jia Xu directly interrupted Wang Lang's lobbying and made it straight to the point.
Wang Lang was a little surprised to see Jia Xu so direct: "So what sir means..."
"It is impossible to surrender to the King of Xia."
Jia Xu and Li Si obtained Lao Qin's props, and Lao Qin asked Jia Xu to tell Chu Tian a word.
Although Lao Qin did not specify the heir, the intelligence of Jia Xu and Li Si may not be unable to understand Lao Qin's implications.
It is obvious that although Chu Tian is Old Qin's opponent, Old Qin is still optimistic about Chu Tian, so he entrusted Jia Xu to hand over the props to Chu Tian, and also hinted that Jia Xu could go and surrender to Chu Tian.
Without children, Old Qin regarded Chu Tian as a junior, which also gave Chu Tian a chance.
Wang Lang was stunned when he heard Jia Xu's words.
Before he could use his perfect tongue to lobby Jia Xu, Jia Xu surrendered directly?
"But now Lu Bu and Li Yuanhao regard me as his military advisor and secretly dispatched troops to monitor me. As long as I act rashly, I will be killed."
Jia Xu had already noticed that Li Yuanhao did not trust him very much.
Lu Bu is a martial artist, and Jia Xu can play Lu Bu in the middle of applause, but Li Yuanhao is the king of the Western Xia Kingdom in history and has a way of suppressing dissidents. He believes that Jia Xu and Li Si are too happy to recognize Lu Bu's status, and there must be problems with the two of them, so he sent a trusted general to secretly monitor Jia Xu and Li Si.
Jia Xu could naturally discover that he was secretly surveillance of his troops.
Jia Xu actually has some force, but it does not mean that Jia Xu can leave calmly under the surveillance of hundreds of soldiers.
Wang Lang heard that someone was secretly surveillance of Jia Xu and was sweating profusely: "As for this, I came to see the sir, wouldn't it be..."
"No, you have been found and you are likely to die."
Jia Xu patted Wang Lang on the shoulder and couldn't help but sigh.
Wang Lang's legs were weak and he smiled bitterly: "Since that's the case, the sir has met me, and he really wants to harm me."
"Don't worry, I have a way to make you survive. He will understand this token to King Xia. If he doesn't understand, then his ability is not worthy of my service."
Jia Xu handed a piece of token to Wang Lang, and then called him to the left and right: "Come on, beat him up, and then give him out."
After a while, Wang Lang was beaten to death and was dragged out by his soldiers.
It is said that King Xia wanted to persuade Jia Xu to surrender, and then Jia Xu scolded Wang Lang seriously and was expelled by sticks.
The unlucky Wang Lang almost crawled back.
"Jia Xu is indeed loyal, you are too worried."
When Lu Bu learned about Jia Xu's attitude, he did not make people chase Wang Lang, who was inconspicuous, and said to Li Yuanhao.
Wang Lang didn't have much presence, so Chu Tian sent him to lobby, and even Lu Bu was disdainful of him.
