After the Han army withdrew into the city, the Zhao army also stopped its actions and returned to the army camp directly after shouting for victory. Please use... to visit this site. The Zhao army left, but the Han army on the city wall was in low spirits.
piece.
"I regret not listening to my brother's advice!" Luo Dingyuan said to Lin Shucheng with a livid face. This action not only failed to arouse the morale of the defenders, but also caused heavy losses to our own side, and even made the defenders doubt Zhao Jun's
The offensive was filled with fear. In other words, the defenders began to fear Zhao Jun's real siege. Since then, this operation not only failed to achieve the expected goal, but it has become even worse.
Compared to the Han army, there was a lot of laughter and laughter in the general camp of Zhao Jun at this moment. Zhao Xun did not expect that the defenders would suddenly attack, allowing him to take heart-attack actions and achieve a better goal.
Luo Feng, the general of the town army, even laughed and said: "For this operation, to be honest, I really have to thank the commanders in the city. If it weren't for them, we still wouldn't be able to achieve the goal we want."
"Yes, after our Thunderbolt was suddenly used, the soldiers on the city wall were dumbfounded. At this moment, I'm afraid they have lost half of their fighting spirit."
Situ Liang smiled and said: "We have almost completed the attack on the heart. Now it is time to send envoys to Chang'an City to persuade them to surrender in order to weaken the fighting spirit of the enemy generals. In addition, to entangle them, we can also attack those stationed in Xianyang.
The 10,000 Han troops took action."
Zhao Xun smiled, looked in the direction of Chang'an, nodded and said: "That's it, then send an envoy to Chang'an. In addition, you can also tell them directly that the Jingzhou reinforcements they are waiting for can no longer go north. The north, east, and south of Chang'an are now
They are already under our jurisdiction. Let them make their choices. Those who understand the current affairs are heroes."
Situ Liang said: "It would be more beneficial to us if we let these envoys spread the news again and spread some news that Lin Shucheng and other Chang'an generals intend to surrender."
A day later, Zhao Jun sent people to the west city of Chang'an City in the name of envoys with great fanfare. The battle that took place in the west city of Chang'an City yesterday had spread throughout the city in a day. It was not just the defenders in the city.
Beginning to worry that Chang'an City will be difficult to defend, the wealthy gentry in the city are also extremely worried.
When the envoys of the Zhao army came to the city, the defenders on the city naturally did not dare to expel them directly. For them, they were still a little bit happy about the arrival of the envoys of the Zhao army. If the above reached an agreement with the Zhao army, wouldn't it be
It means that they don’t have to fight with Zhao Jun, and they don’t need to worry about Zhao Jun’s thunder...
Of course, these soldiers had seen with their own eyes the power of Zhao Jun's sky-shattering thunder yesterday. Therefore, their biggest hope at this moment is not to experience the power of Zhao Jun's sky-shaking thunder in person. As for what agreement the higher-ups can reach with Zhao Jun, they do not consider it.
Hit.
In the general's palace, Luo Dingyuan, Lin Shucheng and several generals under their command were also discussing the situation in Xiyong Province. Yesterday's battle not only failed to achieve the expected goal, but also caused the morale of the entire army to plummet, and the city was even more unstable. Back to the general
Luo Dingyuan of the mansion had been gloomy all day, without any good mood at all.
"Is there any movement outside the city today?" Luo Dingyuan asked with a gloomy face. Since the battle yesterday, Luo Dingyuan has never visited the city wall in person.
Luo Qing, the deputy general of the Han army and a brother of the Luo Dingyuan clan, said in a deep voice: "Reporting to the general, since the battle yesterday morning, and up to now, the Zhao army has no intention of leaving the camp to fight."
"Zhao Jun did not continue to act?" Luo Dingyuan was slightly startled and said in a deep voice: "How is the morale of the army in the city?"
"Since Zhao Jun used catapults in the past few days, it has had a great impact on the morale of our army." Luo Qing was silent for a while and continued: "But since yesterday morning, the morale of our army has dropped even faster. Especially since then.
They were recruited on the city wall and were responsible for assisting in defending the city, transporting supplies, and repairing the city.
Some of the defensive auxiliary soldiers have begun to flee. Among these young men, the hearts of the people are already agitated. For this reason, our military supervisory team killed three capital leaders and five on the pretext of shaking the morale of the army yesterday afternoon.
The commander and a dozen deserters. In addition, even among the soldiers in the city, some are unstable."
"Damn it!" Upon hearing what Luo Qing said, Luo Dingyuan immediately became angry. In this way, the action he ordered yesterday not only had no benefits, but also caused great harm to the troops and generals.
"Hateful! I made a miscalculation yesterday and fell into the trap of Zhao Jun!" Luo Dingyuan said bitterly.
Lin Shucheng said solemnly: "General, there is no need to be like this. This is not the general's fault. What the general did yesterday was actually for the good of Chang'an City. You know, when the army attacked, the Zhao army outside the city was also shocked. However,
, no one expected that Zhao Jun would have such powerful weapons."
"Indeed, what Mr. Lin said is true. If Zhao Jun continues to use catapults to hurl boulders and use bed crossbows to fire crossbow arrows, their lethality will not be enough to cause us such huge losses." Other generals also came out.
Luo Dingyuan said in a comforting voice. Luo Dingyuan is now the coach of Chang'an City. If he can't adjust his mood, then it will definitely not be a good thing for Chang'an.
"By the way, have the people sent to contact Xianyang been contacted? Doesn't Xianyang even have a pigeon for messaging? Also, have they received the more than ten carrier pigeons we sent out?" Luo Dingyuan calmed down.
, asked coldly.
"Reporting back to the general, the connection with Xianyang has not yet been established. To the west of Chang'an, Zhao Jun has a town of people gathered here. The people of this town are a cavalry town among the Zhao army. The establishment is among the soldiers of the five capitals, the cavalry of the three capitals or the cavalry of the four capitals.
The capital cavalry. Such a large number of cavalry has completely blocked our route to the west. Thinking about it, the situation in Xianyang is not optimistic."
After hearing what his subordinates said, Luo Dingyuan's face suddenly froze. He took a deep breath, looked at Lin Shucheng, and said in a deep voice: "Master Lin, in your opinion, what should we do now?"
Lin Shucheng said bitterly: "What else can we do? The Zhao army outside the city has surrounded us, and our only hope now is external reinforcements. But we don't know the external situation now, nor do we know the current situation of Jingzhou reinforcements and Shu army reinforcements.
What is the situation so that we can cooperate."
Seeing Luo Dingyuan's frown, Lin Shucheng said again: "Now, we don't know the situation outside, and we don't know the current situation of the reinforcements, so it is difficult to cooperate with them. Secondly, we are trapped in the city, and the morale of the soldiers has dropped sharply.
, we can still defend the city, but if we go out for a decisive battle, I'm afraid... Thirdly, it is precisely because of Zhao Jun's continuous demonstrations in the past few days that the people in the city, including the wealthy gentry, have begun to feel unstable."
"To be honest, it's okay if we stick to the place, but if we start a war with Zhao Jun, I'm afraid..." Lin Shucheng had to say this because he was worried that Luo Dingyuan would have to fight Zhao Jun again. Strength is the basis for everything. If the strength is too weak, even if it is too weak,
He has all kinds of tricks, but he can't implement them.
At this time, a messenger suddenly came in from outside the hall. Seeing that the generals in the hall were discussing matters, they could only walk back and forth outside the hall. Luo Qing, the deputy general, was responsible for Luo Dingyuan after he ignored the city wall defense. Therefore, he recognized this
He is a messenger under the command of the Xicheng Gate Commander.
Seeing the messenger coming from the west city gate in a hurry, Luo Qing's heart skipped a beat and he wondered if the Zhao army had made another move. He immediately hurried out and the messenger whispered to Luo Qing about the situation of the Zhao army's envoy.
His face suddenly became weird.
Luo Dingyuan glanced at the movement and saw Luo Qing coming back, so he shouted and asked: "What's the matter? Why don't you report it directly to the commander? Come on, is it possible that Zhao Jun has made another movement?"
Luo Qing said in a deep voice: "Reporting to the general, it is Zhao Jun's envoy who appeared outside the city, hoping to discuss with the general the matter of peace."
"Bang!" Hearing this, Luo Dingyuan slapped the table in front of him with a heavy slap. His thin face, which was slightly blue and black due to yesterday's incident, suddenly turned red. He roared angrily: "Zhao Jun envoy? Zhao Jun
Should we also send an envoy? Zhao Jun’s troops accounted for
He killed our Han soldiers in the territory of our Han army, and now he dares to send envoys to discuss the matter of Chang'an? What qualifications does he have to discuss the matter of Chang'an with us? Chang'an belongs to our Han army and has nothing to do with his Zhao army.
If he doesn’t see you, tell him to get lost!”
Luo Qing wanted to persuade Luo Dingyuan to meet the Zhao Jun envoy to see what Zhao Jun wanted to do. However, Luo Dingyuan was in an extremely bad mood because of yesterday's defeat, and it was not inconvenient for him to persuade him. As Luo Dingyuan's clan brother, Luo Qing wanted to persuade him.
, naturally he has to side with Luo Dingyuan. Furthermore, Luo Qing also knows that the smart Lin Shucheng will definitely make a more correct choice.
Sure enough, as Luo Qing imagined, Lin Shucheng said: "General Luo, I think we might as well meet. The current situation is like this. We know nothing about the outside world. Since he Zhao
The army sent an envoy, let us also take a look, what does Zhao Xun mean? By the way, we can inquire about the situation in various places in Xiyong Prefecture."
Luo Dingyuan said coldly: "Messengers from the Zhao army? What else can they do except persuade them to surrender?"
"It is certain to persuade them to surrender, but what do they rely on? We need to know this. Do they have the absolute advantage, or are our reinforcements coming, forcing them to first solve us through peaceful means, and then deal with things
Reinforcements from both directions. Knowing this will be more beneficial to our next actions." Lin Shucheng said in a deep voice.
"That's it, let's meet him and let him in!" After thinking about it, Luo Dingyuan also felt that Lin Shucheng's words were reasonable, so he decided to meet Zhao Jun's envoy to see the purpose of Zhao Jun's envoy.
Luo Dingyuan ordered that this order be conveyed quickly. After burning incense, Zhao Jun's envoy appeared in the hall. A middle-aged scribe in his thirties arrived with a faint smile on his face.
In front of Luo Dingyuan and Lin Shucheng, they bowed their hands and said in a neither humble nor overbearing manner: "Song Yang, the envoy of the State of Zhao, pays homage to the commander-in-chief of Chang'an, Mr. Lin, by order of my king."
After Song Yang said that, the corner of Luo Dingyuan's mouth twitched slightly, and even Lin Shucheng couldn't help but frown. Before Luo Dingyuan could speak, Lin Shucheng took the lead and said: "It seems that your intelligence is not very good. The current commander in the city is not my official, but
This is General Luo. Therefore, the person you need to meet is not me, but this general."
Seeing Lin Shucheng speak, Luo Dingyuan did not continue speaking, but looked at Song Yang with a gloomy face.
Song Yang said: "We know that the commander-in-chief of Hanzhong's reinforcements is General Luo Dingyuanluo, but as far as we know, Mr. Lin, you are the commander-in-chief of Xiyong Prefecture, and you will stay in Chang'an. Furthermore, Mr. Lin can use the families of the Han army officers and soldiers as threats to make the Han army officers and soldiers
older than me
Zhao fought so hard that everyone in the Zhao army admired Master Lin very much. Even my king also praised Master Lin. In my opinion, only Master Lin in Xiyong Prefecture is qualified to serve as the commander-in-chief of the Han army in Chang'an.
Qualifications allow us to communicate with them.”
Lin Shucheng sneered and said: "Are you here to disrupt the relationship between me and General Luo? Or are you trying to ridicule me for treating the family members of my own soldiers? If this is the only purpose of your visit, then you can leave.
"
Lin Shucheng's words also made Luo Dingyuan's ashen complexion slightly improve. Being despised by Zhao Jun's people and saying so in front of a dozen generals under his command, his mood was naturally not much better.
Seeing what Lin Shucheng said, Song Yang smiled lightly and said: "Since Mr. Lin said so, then Song will speak frankly. Now your Chang'an City is already an isolated city and has been besieged by our Zhao Army. Compared with all of you have already
Seeing the power of our Zhao soldiers and weapons, I am afraid that if I want to defend the city, I will not be able to withstand the strong attack of my Zhao. But my king Gu
I'm afraid of the more than 100,000 people in the city, and I'm worried that your Han army still has 20,000 to 30,000 innocent soldiers, and I don't want them all to die in an unnecessary war. Therefore, what does my king want to talk to you about? I hope Mr. Lin, as well as this
General Luo can take the overall situation into consideration and plan for the sake of his officers and soldiers, as well as the common people. He surrenders to our country, Zhao, so that peace can return to this old capital."
"Hahaha..." After hearing what Song Yang said, Luo Dingyuan burst into laughter, "It's ridiculous! Don't even think about wanting our Han army to surrender! If you are really capable, then come and attack the city, even if this general dies in the battle.
Therefore, I will also bite your Zhao army hard. When the time comes, our reinforcements will arrive and we will definitely make your Zhao army look good."
"For the sake of my officers and soldiers, for the sake of the people, let our army surrender? If your king Zhao Xun really wants to have such good intentions, he should not invade my land in Xiyongzhou. If he still has the idea of for the sake of the people, then he should
We should withdraw our troops and not besiege Chang'an. Speaking of which, your Zhao army is the unjust one!"
"General, even if we fight to the death, we will never surrender easily. When the reinforcements arrive, we must make them look good!" The generals below also responded in unison. No matter whether these generals really want to fight to the death with Zhao Jun or they are shouting
slogan, but Luo Dingyuan was quite satisfied to be able to speak in unison at this moment.
Song Yang laughed and said coldly: "Reinforcements? The reinforcements General Luo refers to should be the Luo Army reinforcements and Shu Army reinforcements in Jingzhou. It's a pity that I have bad news for you now."
"The Jingzhou reinforcements you expected are also the reinforcements that can provide you with the fastest support. Now they can no longer reach Xiyongzhou smoothly. Five days ago, Lantian, Qingni Pass and other southeastern cities and checkpoints were all captured by our army.
"As he said this, Song Yang took out a memorial to the King of Zhao from the new Zhao army officials bearing the official seals of various places.
Lin Shucheng took the memorial with a calm face, and after reading it, his face was gloomy. He understood that it was a fact that Zhao Jun occupied these areas. As Song Yang said, these places were occupied by Zhao Jun, so from the northwest of Jingzhou
The reinforcements of the Luo army going north are afraid that they will not be able to enter the territory of Xiyongzhou.
Song Yang continued: "In addition, the counties around Chang'an such as Yangzhu, Baling, Duling, and Xinfeng also fell into the hands of our army a few days ago. In other words, your Chang'an city has already fallen into our hands.
Zhao is besieged on all sides. Although you still have prefectures and counties to the west in your hands, it will only be a matter of time before you fall into our Zhao army."
"By the way, you also have reinforcements all the way, which should be reinforcements from the Shu army. However, I think that when they are unable to do anything, the land of Hanzhong is more attractive to the King of Shu. After all, Hanzhong is adjacent to the Kingdom of Shu.
,Chinese
There are not many Han soldiers left in Zhongzhong. The most important thing is that going north to Xiyongzhou, the Shu army fought hard against us but there is no practical benefit. Taking Hanzhong is a real gain for the Shu army.
Benefit."
"Therefore, the land of Chang'an is already an isolated city. If we continue to hold on, it will only delay time. It will not do any good to the Han soldiers in the city and the people in the city."
Song Yang explained the situation around Chang'an City so directly that the faces of Luo Dingyuan, Lin Shucheng and the Han army generals present changed drastically. They did not know that during the period of time they were trapped in the city, the situation turned out to be
In this way, those generals who originally shouted that they would fight to the death with Zhao Jun also had different expressions at this moment, and no one continued to shout such slogans.
Seeing the dull expressions on the faces of the generals, Lin Shucheng said continuously: "Huh... what you said are all your words. This is not enough to make us give up resistance. Besides, you said that the Shu army will attack our Han army. This
This is simply ridiculous! Shu Army
They are the reinforcements of our Han army, and they are here to support Xiyongzhou. How can you attack our Hanzhong? You are clearly trying to sow discord and undermine our army's fighting spirit. If your Zhao army could really capture Chang'an City, you wouldn't waste your time here.
Already."
Luo Dingyuan also reacted and said coldly: "Yes, I am determined not to surrender. Go back and tell Zhao Xun that if you want to break the city, you must show your true skills instead of playing tricks!"
Song Yang sneered and said: "The two adults know the truth! The Shu army's attack on Hanzhong must not be beyond Lord Lin's expectation. In addition, Lord Lin has never been trusted by the King of Han among Hanzhong.
And my king is thirsty for talents. If Mr. Lin can return to our country, Zhao, he will definitely be reused. In the past, King Yong was in the third level.
Ministers, one of them, Ling Xiao, is already one of the central officials of our Zhao Kingdom. Master Lin should be very clear about this. In comparison, the King of Hanzhong is far worse than my king. Now Chang'an is no longer able to
Yes, Lord Lin has also done what he can for the King of Hanzhong. Therefore, Lord Lin should have a clearer choice."
