"Report, Yuan Jun's camp was attacked, King Zhao asked our army for help!"
At the same time, the other three members of the coalition, Han Xin, Di Qing, and Guan Yu, received Yuan Shao's request for help at the same time!
Thirty thousand cavalry were caught off guard and suddenly attacked Yuan Shao's camp. Under the leadership of Li Cunxu, Li Siyuan, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Wang Zhongsi and others, 30,000 cavalry attacked in multiple directions. Yuan Jun's camp was already in a terrible state.
It was too late to organize an effective resistance, even if Yuan Jun had more soldiers and horses, it would be useless.
Without the support of reinforcements, Yuan Shaojun will collapse sooner or later.
The four princes of the Northern Alliance adopted the tactic of surrounding three and one. Yuan Shao and Han Xin, who were relatively powerful, were responsible for one direction respectively, while Di Qing and Guan Yu, who were relatively weak, were jointly responsible for one direction.
Such distribution will also reduce their internal conflicts to a certain extent.
Ever since the Northern Gate Alliance, Han Xin has been the one in the limelight here. However, each of these characters is more arrogant than the other. There are hidden dangers within them! However, under the suppression of the overall situation, they have not yet exploded.
That's all.
If these princes in the north can really work together and work together as one, the battle of the Northern Allied Forces will not be so difficult!
It was only after the Northern Allied Forces used the tactic of driving the people away and attacking the city that Li Xiang finally felt a real headache, and the morale of a large part of the Jin army's soldiers was severely dampened.
"It shouldn't be!" Han Xin said with a surprised expression!
No matter what he thinks now, the Jin army in the city should not leave the city at this time to attack at night!
Furthermore, not to mention the Heibingtai and other institutions that have been hidden, but between the gates of Luoyang City, the various princes in the Northern Alliance send an unknown number of servants to monitor day and night every day. If the people in Luoyang City
If the Jin army moved out, especially in large numbers, how could they not discover it?
Therefore, it is probably impossible for the Jin army to come out of Luoyang City this time.
If there were reinforcements from outside, Li Jing had clearly been temporarily blocked by Chi You. Therefore, Han Xin could not figure out where this Jin army came from.
After all, how could Han Xin know that it would be such a coincidence that some war horses would be transported from Liangzhou to Yongzhou at this time!
"General Han, if there is a Jin cavalry surprise attack, the troops marching into Luoyang City may not be safe!" Advisor Fan Sui reminded him.
If Li Xiang would let such a good opportunity pass easily, he would not deserve to be called Li Xiang!
Sure enough, just as Fan Sui finished speaking, a scout had already sent word that the gates of Luoyang City were wide open and countless soldiers and horses took advantage of the night to rush out!
"The Jin army is crazy. They chose to attack in two directions at the same time!" Han Xin was surprised again.
The Jin troops in the city did leave the city at this time as Han Xin and others thought, but they did not cooperate with this sudden attack to collapse Yuan Shao's troops as Han Xin thought.
Or to be more precise, the current Jin army is divided into two groups. Among them, one group of soldiers and horses is indeed heading towards the direction of Yuan Shao's camp, preparing to cooperate with Li Cunxu's troops who came to raid. And there is another group of soldiers and horses.
, but headed towards the direction of the enemy's camp and Guan Yu's camp.
"General, it's time to make a decision!" Fan Sui reminded him.
The movements of the Jin army in Luoyang City have been clearly detected, and they are not heading towards the direction of the Qin army's camp. Moreover, although it is not known how many soldiers and horses the Jin army used while taking advantage of the darkness of the night?
However, based on common sense, it is unlikely that troops will be sent to attack their Qin army's camp again.
Currently, among the two groups of soldiers and horses coming out of Luoyang City, although we don’t know whether they are true or false, at least the group of soldiers and horses going to Yuan Shao’s camp is definitely a large force.
Therefore, even after Han Xin sends troops and horses, the defense force in their camp will be greatly reduced. However, the Jin army still has no possibility of sending troops and horses to sneak attack them. Because the Jin army does not have that many troops.
The troops are there.
In short, even if the Jin army takes this opportunity to launch a large-scale attack, a certain number of soldiers and horses will definitely be left in Luoyang City for defense.
This Jin army must stay behind to prevent Han Xin from sending reinforcements to rescue his allies at this time, but instead taking advantage of the large-scale Jin army in Luoyang City to attack Luoyang City.
Therefore, at this time, Han Xin was willing to send reinforcements with peace of mind.
"Send an order to General Qin Quliang to lead Jiang Chen, Qin Gou, Xi Qishu, Bai Yibing, Qin Hua, Qin Yao, Qin Cang (Qing Cang)... all the generals to assist Yuan immediately!"
The Jin army in Luoyang City attacked in two directions. Han Xin could not judge whether the troops heading towards Guan Yu and Di Qing were real or fake until he got more effective information.
At least, in Han Xin's opinion, the soldiers and horses along this route are quite likely to be empty troops, used to attract Han Xin's attention, so that the Jin army can attack Yuan Shao and gain opportunities.
However, the troops and horses heading to Yuan Shao's place this time are definitely real troops and horses.
Therefore, Han Xin's final choice is to focus all his efforts on rescuing Yuan Shao for the time being.
However, Han Xin was not omnipotent, and his wrong judgment led to the Northern Alliance ultimately failing.
To this day, Li Xiang still holds a trump card in his hand.
The 10,000 heavy cavalry was only used when Li Xiang sent Han Xin to meet the troops at the remaining passes after Han Xin broke through Xuanyuan Pass. After that, these 10,000 heavy cavalry were used by Li Xiang.
He holds it firmly in his hand as his trump card and has never played it out.
Of course, Li Xiang has always fought defensive battles since then, and he basically does not need heavy cavalry when defending the city.
After all, Luoyang, as the base camp of the Jin army, is too crucial to Li Xiang's status. He will not easily risk launching a field battle before he is not sure enough, or perhaps before he is forced to do so as a last resort.
The Jin army in Luoyang City was divided into two groups. Most of the troops and horses were indeed used by Yuan Shao, but the remaining troops and horses were definitely not just a cover, but real troops. Moreover, these 10,000-strong cavalry
Also among the soldiers and horses on this road.
Therefore, perhaps the number of Jin troops sent to Di Qing and Guan Yu was slightly smaller.
However, although the number of Jin troops on this route was small, their actual combat power was greater than that of the troops sent to Yuan Shao.
