Chapter 492 [Wu Zhou famous general] and Tang Luo Dao surprise attack
Xia State, Daxing County, Sanguan.
This pass, located in the southern suburbs of Chencang and at the northern foot of the Qinling Mountains, has been the throat of Daxing County since ancient times. Together with Xiaoguan in the northwest, it forms the western defense line of the Weihe Plain.
Speaking of Sanguan alone, this place is dangerous, easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Standing on the gate, looking into the distance, you can see mountains and mountains, lush with ancient trees, the peaks on both sides are like crouching cows, like galloping horses, and like airtight natural barriers. Below, the Qingjiang River is rushing,
Take advantage of the location.
The Xia army built the pass here and stood in front of it.
The majestic siege city was built along with the mountains. Outside the siege city, there were three large stone walls and twelve small stone walls to defend against enemy attacks.
And stationed here, there are more than 18,000 elite Xia troops from the north, which can be said to be impregnable!
But since it blocks the way forward for the Yun Army, it is a city that is strong and difficult to attack, and no matter how high the price is, the Yun Army soldiers are determined to conquer it!
"kill!"
The cry of killing shook the heaven and the earth.
The bow string vibrated, like the sound of cracking silk, and dense arrows suddenly appeared in the sky, whistling and falling like raindrops.
After the gunpowder technology was introduced, a series of explosion sounds of "bang" and "bang" will suddenly occur on the battlefield today. The smoke and poisonous smoke emitted by the burning felt are now spread over the city walls, making
The Xia army soldiers on guard could hardly even open their eyes.
Fueled by kerosene, the flames of war were roaring, and the screams of the Xia army's soldiers could be heard.
The aura of killing surged straight into the sky, and armies of different shapes suddenly appeared, entangled with each other.
The officers and men of the Yun army were brave and elite, and their military strength was strong and powerful. At this time, under the leadership of the frontline general Xiaowei, they withstood the counterattack of the Xia army in the Dashan Pass and charged forward. Their morale was even higher.
Originally, the two armies were fighting incessantly due to their fortunes, and were considered evenly matched.
But under the blessing of this bold fighting spirit, the visions of the Yun Army's armies became more solid and compelling. They immediately suppressed the vision of the Xia Army's army, making the generals of the Yun Army receive the blessing of the vision and their combat power was even greater.
.
Among the forward troops, there was a general with a beard and a majestic figure. He was holding an iron gun and his face was full of murderous intent. He led his soldiers to lead the way.
The spear was swung, and it was blasted out with great force, directly blasting away a low stone wall in front of him, and then continued to charge.
His fierce killing and indomitable momentum make him particularly conspicuous on the battlefield!
In the distance, under the banner of the Central Army of the Yun Army, Di Qing, who was patrolling the front line in person, pointed at the brave figure on the battlefield and said in a deep voice:
"Who is that?"
Even if there is a general, he goes out to salute and report:
"Coming back to the Commander-in-Chief, this man's name is Wang Xiaojie. He was born as a soldier in the imperial army. Because of his bravery and perseverance, he was praised by His Majesty. He was promoted to the seventh grade Zhiguo School Captain and was asked to serve in the frontline army.

[Card description: During the Northern Expedition, Yao went deep into Qiangqiang for thousands of miles. After the battle, the sun set yellow, and the army was defeated and died with the sound of drums. I heard that the Han flying generals could seize Shanyu base. Now we are close to the mountain ghosts, and the remaining soldiers cry for Liao River.]
[Wang Xiaojie, a famous general in the Tang Dynasty. He joined the army when he was young and fought everywhere. He made many military exploits. After Wu Zetian came to power, he was promoted to General Yangwei. He had three ups and downs in his life, and was ranked among the seventy-two famous generals in the Tang Dynasty.…
He was once captured by the Tibetans and returned to the Tang Dynasty after escaping death. He then led his troops to attack the Tibetans and recaptured the four towns of Qiuci, Yanqi, Yutian and Shule. He resettled the Anxi garrison at Qiuci and defeated the Tibetan coalition.
He led his troops to attack the Hou Turks in the north, causing the Hou Turks to surrender and surrender to the Wu Zhou Dynasty. Later, he served as the general manager of the march of the Qing border road, and led the army to attack the Khitan Khan Sun Wanrong. Because his army went deep alone and was outnumbered, he was defeated and fell into the valley and died.

Wang Xiaojie's attributes are really not outstanding among today's clouds.
However, his various attributes are extremely balanced. Without his reckless temperament, he is more than enough to serve as the leader of a partial division.
In the distance, Di Qing looked at the figure of Wang Xiaojie charging forward, and he couldn't help but nodded slightly and said in approval:
"Your Majesty has a keen eye. This man is brave and can be a strong general in the army!"
On the battlefield in the distance, Xia's army was struggling to hold on even though it was restricted everywhere. But after all, it had a strong pass to rely on, and behind it was the undefeable Weihe Plain. Therefore, it fought to the death and fought back desperately, and even let the Yun army attack the pass.
The loss is not small.
Especially Wang Xiaojie's troops, who were leading the charge and broke away from the support on the left and right wings. At this time, they suffered heavy casualties and lost more than half. They had no choice but to retreat and hand over the battle line to their colleagues in the rear.
The soldiers under his command continued to charge bravely and suffered heavy casualties. But at this time, Di Qing was silently looking at the majestic pass ahead, his expression cold and unwavering.
At this time, there was a general beside Di Qing, who couldn't help but said:
"Commander, with such a forceful attack, I'm afraid the casualties among the soldiers will be heavy. Why not deploy the Wudang flying army, climb up from the mountains and forests on both sides, cooperate with the main force of the army, and capture Sanguan in one fell swoop!"
Although the mountains on both sides of Sanguan are steep and there is no feasible way.
But Wudang Feijun was also an elite member of Dayun. It was said that climbing mountains and ridges was a piece of cake! Back then, even places like the Yinping Trail could be climbed by Wudang Feijun.
Therefore, when the war was unfavorable at this time, some generals thought of such a force.
But when Di Qing heard this, he didn't even think about it and said in a deep voice:
"unnecessary!"
When the generals heard this, they immediately looked puzzled.
Obviously he can win Sanguan at a much lower price, so why is the commander unwilling to do so?
Di Qing raised his riding whip, pointed in the direction of Sanguan ahead, and said in a deep voice:
"After the disbandment of the customs, Daxing County of the Xia Kingdom was an important place in the northern border. There were more than 100,000 Xia troops stationed there, all of whom were elite soldiers who had fought in the northern border!"
"Seizing Sanguan easily will force the Xia army to withdraw its main force and defend the fortified city. If you want to capture it then, you will have to spend an unknown amount of effort."
"This time, our army mobilized all its elites and attacked in all directions, storming all key points in the Xia Kingdom. It was planned to invade Daxing County and sweep across the Weihe Plain. The Xia army on the front line was in panic and would only ask for reinforcements from the rear.
.”
Di Qing had a hundred thousand elite troops under his command. After two years of preparation, the army had sufficient food, grass and weapons, and all the officers and men were bent on fighting. They formally launched an army to attack the Weihe Plain. The offensive would inevitably cause the earth to collapse and destroy everything, so how could it only be broken up by a forceful attack?
The soldiers and horses all the way through Guan?…
At this time, Xiaoguan, northwest of Sanguan, was also attacked by tens of thousands of elite Yun troops.
Taking advantage of the favorable geographical location of Xiaoguan, the Xia army defended and requested reinforcements from Daxing County in the rear, vowing to keep the Yun army out of the Weihe Plain and prevent it from advancing even an inch!
Di Qing's eyes were extremely sharp, and he looked past the scattered officials who were fighting in front of him and towards the Weihe Plain behind him.
"When all the Xia troops from Daxing County are transferred to the front line and the rear is empty, I, Dayun, will launch a surprise attack on Daxing County, isolate the Xia troops on the front line from the rear of Xia Kingdom, and then swallow up these more than 100,000 Xia troops in one go!"
Surprise attack? Surprise attack from where?
When the generals heard this, their expressions were once again stagnant.
——
At this moment, in Anshun County and Xingyuan Mansion.
In the city where the army was under martial law, Dongchang fans were everywhere, capturing all the people suspected of being spies of the Xiuyi Envoy. The entire Xingyuan Mansion was surrounded like an iron barrel!
In the capital city, the sealed warehouse was suddenly opened.
What is placed here is the countless grain, grass and military equipment that the Yun Kingdom imperial court has secretly transported from Anshun and Jiangyang counties over the past two years and hoarded them here.
These grains, grass, ordnance were carried on strange-looking vehicles of various sizes.
Among them, the wooden ox cart has a square belly and a curved head. It has one leg and four legs. The head is in the chin and the tongue is in the belly. It can carry more than it can move. There are small hinges under the car body, and with the exquisite mechanism, it can carry 800 kilograms. .
The flowing carriage is shaped like an elephant and has four wheels.
You can hear the sound of the mechanism turning, and it can also carry a load of four hundred kilograms.
These two types of vehicles are exactly the wooden ox-flow carriages that Zhuge Liang, the current left minister of the Ministry of War, was responsible for the logistics transportation of army supplies. Due to the poor roads in Anshun and Jiangyang counties, he asked a bachelor from the Shenji Institute to help build the wooden ox-flow carriage.
Although these two vehicles are strange in shape, they are extremely suitable for the rugged, narrow and extremely difficult roads in Anshun County. They carry a huge load and can travel more than 20 miles a day without using any manpower. This is a masterpiece!
And these grain, grass and ordnance, which were carried on wooden cattle and flowing horses, will follow an army composed of eight thousand Wudang flying troops, three thousand Youzhou sudden cavalry, and twenty thousand elite Yun troops, through a rugged trail called the Tangluo Road. , crossing the mountains and ridges, heading directly towards the hinterland of Daxing County!
This is what Di Qing calls a surprise attack strategy!
When more than 100,000 Xia troops in Daxing County were stormed and the main force of the Yun Army in Xiaoguan attracted all the attention, this army set up its troops in an extremely concealed and low-key manner and headed towards the city of Daxing County.
——
From the junction of Xunyang County and Yicheng County, it reaches the county in the east.
The sound of soldiers marching in neat steps was like thunder, shaking the earth. The elite Yun Army forwards were marching here with solemn appearance, high morale and high fighting spirit.
Looking at the Xia army's barracks in front of them, the simple water forts built on both sides of the Yangtze River, and the Xia army that was preparing for war and holding on to the danger, Wu Zixu, who followed the army to the front line, frowned slightly at this time.
After all, it was because the army was renovating, settling in the city, and dividing the troops into three places that wasted some time, and actually gave the Xia army commander Wu Zhengping time to build a camp!
This Wu Zhengping obviously had the idea of holding on to the stronghold, fighting in vain, and trying his best to delay the Yun army until reinforcements arrived.
Thinking of this, Wu Zixu suddenly sneered and said:
"In that case, let's see who is faster at repairing the camp, or my general, who is faster at destroying the camp!"
Immediately, Wu Zixu's eyes sharpened, he pointed at the group of camps in front of him, and shouted coldly:
"At any cost, take Yicheng County by force!"
"General, take your orders!"
General Yun Jun, who was at the vanguard, immediately shouted loudly, and the heavy military force spilled out, causing the sky and the earth to change color, and dark clouds covered the clear sky, which was extremely terrifying!
The next moment, the cry of killing sounded again on both sides of the Yangtze River -
