Compared with Chang'an, the situation in the Lantian camp of the Han army is even worse. Please visit the latest free chapters of this book... After all, Chang'an City is the capital of the old country, with a strong city and a large number of troops. But it is located in Lantian, southwest of Chang'an,
But it's far worse.
Yang Wangqing and Zhao Kang led a town of men to Lantian, yu took the southeast of Chang'an, and took control of the levels that intersect Qingni Pass, Wuguan and others with the southeast and south.
However, the Han army at Lantian and Qingni Pass had already received instructions from Lin Shucheng to defend the city and not fight to the death. The Zhao army was delayed as much as possible. In addition, it also sought help from Jingzhou in the southeast and asked Jingzhou to send reinforcements to Jingzhou.
Then, then
After the Zhao army invaded Tongguan, the King of Hanzhong in Jingbei had already received news that the situation in Xiyongzhou was not good. While he continued to attack Henan Prefecture, he asked the Qi army, Shu army and Luoyang king to go from Danshui to the front line.
Support Xiyongzhou.
Although the King of Luoyang was dissatisfied with the command of King Hanzhong, he also knew that if the front line of Wuguan was captured by the Zhao army, then the northwest of Jingzhou would also receive threats from the Zhao army. Therefore, he also sent him to the northwest of the land of Jingzhou.
Reinforcements supported the front line of Wuguan and assisted the Han army in defending Wuguan and other places.
To summarize the situation in various parts of Xiyongzhou, Zhao Xun, Situ Liang and others also found that Xiyongzhou is now blooming from all sides and fighting everywhere.
"King, have you started to attack Chang'an?" Zhao Xiong, who looked impatient, looked at the Chang'an city in the distance, and said in a deep voice.
Situ Liang smiled and said, "It seems that the soldiers below can't help it! Chang'an City is strong and thick, especially after being prepared, it is really not easy to attack, especially the city has sufficient troops and Lin Shucheng.
The best way to attack is not to be the capable person.”
Zhang Yin, deputy general of the Tenth Town, said in confusion: "There is no news coming in the city, because of our spreading news, but the soldiers and people in the city began to be dissatisfied with Lin Shucheng, and the former guards in Chang'an City had already begun to move.
, Has Lin Shucheng even given power to the head coach of the reinforcements of Hanzhong? Since the head coach has changed, it is no longer Lin Shucheng, so we still need to be so worried?"
Situ Liang said in a deep voice: "This is also Lin Shucheng's cleverness! The news we spread has indeed made the city chaotic, and the soldiers and the people dissatisfied with him. No matter whether Lin Shucheng is soft or hard, as long as he continues to command the defenders in the city,
Continuing to appear in the army would inevitably make the dissatisfaction even louder. However, he directly told these soldiers that the rumors in the city were just the trick of the Zhao army. In addition, in order to make the soldiers believe that he was willing to give up the power,
To show your innocence.”
"Think about it, even the position of coach has been given up. Is it necessary for me to use this method to force the soldiers to fight to the death? What's the good thing about this? Lin Shucheng used this method to let the soldiers in the city stand from his perspective.
He considers it.”
"In this way, although the rumors in the city cannot be eliminated, the dissatisfaction of the soldiers in the city will be minimized. Although it seems that Lin Shucheng handed over the power to the head commander of the reinforcements of Hanzhong, with the current Chang'an City and Xiyongzhou,
What are the benefits of taking it out? The only benefit is nominal, but in fact he is also responsible for the resistance to our army. Therefore, although Lin Shucheng handed over the power to the Hanzhong reinforcements commander Luo Dingyuan, who was investigated according to our investigation, Lin Shucheng
It has played a very important role in it.”
"According to the Shadow Guard, the young and strong people in Chang'an City have been quickly gathered. In case of precautions, the Han soldiers patrolling the city have doubled and kept going all night. In addition, the city has also begun to do it well.
Preparation for defense. The city guarding equipment in Chang'an City is no less than what we have."
"After we trapped Chang'an City, the only thing that restricted Chang'an City was food. However, this problem was also solved by Lin Shucheng when we launched an attack on Hangu Pass. The food and grass stored in Chang'an City were enough.
It’s used for one year in the city. Therefore, you can’t use force attacks on Chang'an City now.”
Zhao Xiong said in a muffled voice: "If you don't attack? If you don't attack, you won't be able to win Chang'an!"
Situ Liang smiled and said, "The reason is that it is because it is time-consuming and labor-intensive to attack Chang'an directly. In addition, there is a large army of Han army in the west of Chang'an. Therefore, we will solve the periphery of Chang'an first, and wait for other places in Xiyongzhou.
In our hands, can Chang'an still run away?"
Zhao Xun also said in a deep voice: "There is another purpose. We cannot be trapped in the offensive and defensive battle now. According to news from Jingzhou, the Shu army and the Qi army supported food and supplies, and the Luo army sent 10,000 troops to the Wuguan to advance.
Now he is rushing here. Although the Luoyang King was dissatisfied with the Hanzhong King and the southern princes under our inspiration, he was unwilling to let the northwest gate of Jingzhou be occupied by our army."
"Secondly, the Shu army dispatched 30,000 troops and 50,000 civilians to advance to Hanzhong, preparing to support the land of Xiyongzhou from Hanzhong. If these 30,000 enemy troops were allowed to advance, then it would definitely not be a good thing for us.
We are going to face more than 100,000 enemy soldiers."
"So, the most urgent task now is to take down Qingni Pass, Wuguan, Luogu, Chen Cang, Sanguan and other important places in the west, and keep the enemy out."
"It's a pity that I couldn't say that I surrendered to the King of Luoyang. If I let the King of Luoyang fall to us, let alone Xiyongzhou, we can occupy half of even Jingzhou." Zhao Xiong sighed with a little regret.
Situ Liang smiled and said, "When saying surrender to the King of Luoyang? Situ Hao is a prince in the same place after all. Unless he has reached the point where he cannot retreat, how could he surrender easily? It can make them more dissatisfied with the princes in the south and become stronger with the King of Hanzhong.
It’s already hard to get dirty.”
Zhao Xun said in a deep voice: "I am not worried about the war in Xiyongzhou now, but what I am worried about is the situation of Henan Prefecture. The King of Hanzhong personally went to Henan Prefecture, and the ninth town of the town was facing the offensive of Hanzhong Prefecture, and his strength was really weak.
"
Situ Liang said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty can rest assured! The southern city of Henan Prefecture, when we occupy Dong Yongzhou and confront Jingbei, we strengthened the city defenses in various places. Although the Ninth Town fought against the enemy coalition forces in Jingbei alone, we
Occupying the local area and city defense, and also receiving support from the people. The ninth town will never lose any mistakes in guarding the place." Together, Lingfu threatened the enemy troops in Jingbei from the flanks, causing the King of Hanzhong to dare not attack the entire army. Therefore, Henanfu's ninth
The pressure on the town is not too great. In addition, the dungeons stationed in Jizhou and Yanzhou have also begun to cheaper to the southwest, and can assist the ninth town in guarding Dong Yongzhou at any time."
"In addition, the Ninth Town implemented a strategy of strengthening the walls and clearing the fields in the southern part of Henan Prefecture, completely clearing local towns and small towns, and defending them according to the big city. Infantry guarded the city, cavalry swam outside, and raided the logistics team of the Southern Alliance at any time. According to recent
According to the war report of Dongyongzhou, the southern coalition forces in Dongyongzhou have not yet achieved effective results in Henan Prefecture."
"In addition, the alliance of southern princes has not been completely achieved under our destruction. Therefore, the interests within these princes are not well divided.
"That's great!" Zhao Xun nodded slightly. What Zhao Xun was worried about was whether the King of Hanzhong would go crazy after he learned that he had invaded Xiyongzhou. However, now it seems that he had experienced many wars.
The brothers of the Zhao family have also made sufficient progress.
"Now, what has an impact on the entire battle situation in Xiyongzhou are the Luo army reinforcements from Jingzhou north and the Shu army reinforcements from Hanzhong. In contrast, the Luo army reinforcements are closest to us and are also threatening our flanks.
.If it weren't for the inconvenience of the large army, I was afraid that the King of Hanzhong would not have restrained us from Jingbei, but would have directly dispatched the large army from here to support Xiyongzhou." Zhao Xun pointed to the map and said slowly.
Zhang Yin said in a deep voice: "Since the King of Luoyang was moved by us, I think the King of Luoyang would not let his army fight with us in a real battle. That's it, why not send people to contact us and let the Luo army retreat! After all,
We fought, and he was the one who suffered the damage, and the one who benefited was indeed the King of Hanzhong."
Situ Liang shook his head and said, "I'm afraid this won't work. Although the reinforcements were Luo Army, their food, supplies, weapons, armor and equipment were indeed supported by Qi and Shu Army. They would send people to assist, of course, it can also be said to be supervision. Especially Shu
They also have reinforcements in Hanzhong, so they hope that the Luo army reinforcements from the east and north can attack left and right with the Shu army reinforcements from the west and north to deal with us. Even if the Luo army restrained us this way, they didn't want it.
Luo Jun hesitated."
Zhao Xun said in a deep voice: "That's right, the southeast is waiting for the performance of Yang Wangqing and Zhao Kang. As for us, we will start to block any connection between Chang'an and the outside world. Zhao Xiong, you immediately wave your army to the south,
Take down Changling, Yangsuo, Baling, Duling, Xinfeng and other counties in the southern part of Chang'an, so that all the south part of Chang'an belong to our army, and cooperate with the Fourth Cavalry Town to block any contact between Chang'an and the surrounding areas."
"The last general obeys the order!" Seeing that there was a combat mission, not only Zhao Xiong, but also the generals and generals of the tenth towns of other towns were also very happy.
Looking at the expressions on the generals' faces, Zhao Xun explained in a deep voice: "Don't just be happy, be careful in everything, and don't forget to be so because of the advantage."
"Situ Aiqing, look, did you let the army of Tianshui Qinzhou go south, take down Tielong Mountain, Mumen, and Wudu, and make the intention of going south?" Zhao Xun pointed to the west of the map and said in a deep voice.
"Tielong Mountain, Mumen, Wudu? The king's intention is to put pressure on Shu Kingdom, causing our Liangzhou army to go south to Yizhou, so that the Shu army dare not go north easily from Hanzhong reinforcements." Situ Liang looked at the map
, said in a deep voice, "This is feasible. If we act in these areas, the King of Shu will definitely put himself first, rather than the King of Hanzhong's Xiyongzhou. However, there are also many Shu troops in Yizhou and Ningzhou.
Attacking here can only allow the Shu army to strengthen the defense of the northern line, and will not allow the Shu king to give up his support for Xiyongzhou. However, it can delay the time for the Shu army reinforcements."
Zhao Xun smiled and said, "Our goal is to delay the reinforcements of the Shu army. The King of Shu sent troops to support Xiyongzhou not because of the alliance of southern princes, but because he valued the land of Xiyongzhou, or in other words, he valued it.
The land of Xiyongzhou, including Hanzhong. If possible, the King of Shu will definitely occupy the place with him, rather than return it to the King of Hanzhong."
"If time can be delayed, our goal will be achieved. If the King of Shu knew that the land of Xiyongzhou could no longer be seized, he would naturally not continue to send troops north, but let this reinforcement stay in the land of Hanzhong..."
Situ Liang's eyes lit up and said with a smile: "Since Xiyongzhou cannot support it, it is also good to take down the Hanzhong land, the key defense area of the northern part of Shu Kingdom from the hands of King Hanzhong. This method is feasible, so that King Shu can compete with Hanzhong.
The king will definitely benefit us. At this moment, the King of Hanzhong has absolutely not many troops in Hanzhong. After all, he has supported more than 35,000 people to this point. Whether the Shu army forcibly occupied it or through other means, as long as it depends on it
If the land of Hanzhong does not leave, even if the land of Hanzhong is captured, even if the king of Hanzhong cannot counterattack, he will be extremely dissatisfied in his heart."
"That's true, let the Liangzhou army put pressure on the western part of Chang'an while moving south quickly and make the position that our Da Zhao's next goal is Yizhou Shu Kingdom." Zhao Xun smiled, "I want to do so."
Let’s see if this Shu King will attack Hanzhong directly and incorporate Hanzhong into his own rule.”
..............
Lantian, Zhao army camp.
"Military advisor, what military orders does the king have?" Zhao Kang, general of the Imperial Army's First Town, asked in a deep voice.
Yang Wangqing said in a deep voice: "The military information from Jingzhou is coming, Luo army reinforcements are advancing towards Wuguan. The king asked us to take down Qingni Pass, Wuguan and other southeastern passes of Xiyongzhou to defend against the enemy and abroad."
Zhao Kang said in a deep voice: "It seems that we need a hard battle. The Lantian guard is really calm. No matter how we tease him, he will not fight."
Yang Wangqing smiled and said, "It's better to fight hard. Fight the previous battle first, so that we can see the other party's loopholes. A mere five thousand defenders, plus only eight thousand young and strong men, I want to stop our army because of this.
Let them see how powerful we are."
"Come here, beat the drum and bell the general, and prepare to attack the city!" Zhao Kang ordered in a deep voice.
The war drums rumbled and the horns roared. The Zhao army gathered outside the camp and rushed towards Lantian County. In an instant, the atmosphere between the two sides suddenly became tighter and the war was about to begin.
Although Lantian County has been raised and thickened, Lantian Guardian has no confidence in defending the city and resisting the Zhao army. Lantian Guardian Ma Qing is very clear about his responsibilities, and his task is to delay the Zhao army's attack on the southeast as much as possible.
, so that reinforcements from Jingzhou could arrive here.
"General, it seems that he is afraid that heavy rain will come!" Yang Wangqing looked at the sky that was gradually sinking and said to Zhao Kang in a deep voice.
The fiery red flame qilin flag whistled in the wind and flew, and Zhao Kang was wearing a black se armor and a red se flame cloak, standing under the handsome flag. Hearing Yang Wangqing's words, Zhao Kang smiled and said, "In early summer, the weather suddenly changes,
It's also common, but it doesn't affect our actions."
Of course, Zhao Kang's heart was not as calm as his face. The weather was about to change, and heavy rain might come. With the heavy rain coming, there might be lightning. Zhao Kang had heard what Zhao Xun said about lightning. The soldiers and soldiers
Wearing armor and holding a spear, if lightning comes, it will easily be struck by lightning.
However, the army had just assembled and was about to withdraw, which was not what he wanted. Of course, the enemy was at a higher position than him, and even if he was about to be struck by lightning, the other party would be the first. Of course, he also knew that the chance of encountering lightning was also good.
Not very big.
It was darker at some point. Although it was still noon, it was as dark as in the evening.
"It seems that it's really going to rain this day!" Zhao Kang said helplessly at the sudden change of the sky. In just one stick of incense, the sky changed drastically, which was beyond his expectations.
“Kala…”
A dazzling lightning flashed leisurely across the sky, illuminating the dim land. Zhao Kang looked back suddenly, and the 20,000 troops had already set up formations behind him, rushing under the flags of the earth, spears like forests, swords like forests, sword soldiers
The cold light reflected the lightning flashed and reflected the dark sky.
"Pap!"
A crystal clear raindrop dripped from the vast void and gently splashed on Zhao Kang's face. Zhao Kang looked up and another dazzling lightning broke through the sky. Under the bright lightning, endless raindrops were pouring from the sky.
After a while, it was already raining heavily.
"Fortunately, the lightning is not fierce!" Zhao Kang looked at the lightning flashing in the distance in the sky and said in his heart.
Above Lantian County, the Lantian chief general Ma Qing looked at the Zhao army outside the city coldly, and looked at the Zhao army soldiers in the rain curtain, and his heart was covered with a shadow.
"The Zhao army can sweep the north, and it is indeed an outstanding place." Looking at the Zhao army formation that was still moving in the heavy rain, Ma Qing couldn't help but sigh that in addition to admiring Zhao army, he was more powerless to the situation in front of him.
"Sir, please let the last general hold the city until the reinforcements in Jingzhou arrive. However, the Zhao army ignored the existence of this city at all and now started to attack the city directly. More than 20,000 troops can be blocked by my troops alone
Is it? "
"General!" A general walked up to Ma Qing and said in a deep voice, "It's raining so heavily in the world, the enemy should not attack the city anymore. Should you let the brothers go back to the camp first to avoid it?"
"No, no!" Ma Qing raised his hand suddenly and said in a narrow voice: "If it is the army of other princes who are sieging the city, what you said is reasonable. However, the enemy who is coming to the siege in front of him is not ordinary people, they are Zhao
The country's troops, even Hangu Pass, were captured by them, how could we be careless? Look at the Zhao army outside the city, they have not returned to the camp, how could we leave the city defense?"
"Send the order and let the soldiers prepare for a big battle!" Ma Qing said coldly, "In addition, send a messenger immediately to report the situation here to Chang'an! See if the defenders in the southwest can come to assist.
Next, this place is even more important. As long as reinforcements come, we can reverse the situation where we are being beaten."
"High rain has come, and although the difficulty of siege is increasing, isn't it the difficulty of defending the city? The materials such as turbulent oil, boiling water, etc. are completely useless now." Looking at the crackling raindrops, Ma Qing couldn't help but look at the crackling raindrops,
He said with hatred.
Fortunately, it is early summer and the weather has begun to appear hot. Otherwise, such heavy rain would not be a good thing for the soldiers.
