"Okay, the matter of Xiyongzhou has passed, and it's too late to talk about it now! Xiyongzhou is considered to be lost, but we must not lose the land of Hanzhong again. Please visit the latest free chapters of this book... The matter of withdrawing troops,
Go down and prepare immediately, wait for the left side troops to meet, and we will withdraw our troops south immediately." The King of Hanzhong interrupted his subordinates and continued to discuss the surrender of the generals in Xiyongzhou in the intelligence, and instead talked about Hanzhong and
Withdrawal.
He Zhaowu, the army of the royal palace, said in a deep voice: "The king's intention is that our next goal is to transfer the troops of the Hanzhong area, Danyang Prefecture and Bei'an Prefecture to the west of the Lingfu. However, the Qi army still had to let the Qi army transfer westward.
, to supplement our evacuation gap and to restrain the possibility of Zhao's army entering Jingzhou west."
"This matter lets me know that the more we give in, the more we will be used by both of them, and the more likely we will be to be deceived by them. The land of Hanzhong is my title and the place where our Han army started.
You said, can we watch this place be annexed by the Shu army?"
"Since Situ Che is unrighteously betraying the alliance, it's no wonder we are cruel. If Hanzhong cannot defend it, I would rather let him fall into the hands of Zhao army. Want to use this king as a soft persimmon or a chess piece? I want you to look good!
"Situ Feiyin said coldly, "I don't want anyone to propose any suggestions to give in to the Shu army again. How can the princes who do not even comply with the alliance?"
Wang Hewen said in a deep voice: "What the king said is right. In the past, we were forced to bow to the King of Shu and ignored the occupation of Hanzhong. That is because Xiyongzhou is still in the confrontation between us and Zhao army. But now,
Xiyongzhou has been lost, and we can no longer let the land of Hanzhong be occupied by the Shu army."
"In any case, we must express our opinions and bottom line to King Situ Che of Shu. This place in Hanzhong is where our Han army started and the origin of the title of the king. We must not be lost."
"From the situation of our transfer of troops from Danyang Prefecture and Bei'an Prefecture in the eastern part of Jingzhou, the King of Qi was unwilling to be captured by the Zhao army. Therefore, the Qi army could take on part of our defense in Jingbei.
There is no obligation to be responsible for their northern defense for the Qi army and the Shu army."
"In the same way, the land of Hanzhong is not only our jurisdiction, but also the northern outer defense line of the Shu army. We resist foreign enemies for them, but they are pulling their legs in the rear. We will never tolerate such a thing."
Not only does the King of Hanzhong not want the land of Hanzhong to be occupied by the Shu army, but they are also unwilling to do so. The larger the territory of the King of Hanzhong, the greater the official position and the greater their interests. No one is willing to see it
The master you surrendered to becomes weaker and weaker, and no one wants to see his own interests suffer.
"King... is not good!" Just as the King of Hanzhong and others discussed the situation in Hanzhong, the former camp leader rushed in with a look of panic.
"Why are you panic?" The King of Hanzhong said with a ugly face. He was originally in a bad mood because of the Xiyongzhou incident, but now he saw the performance of his generals and schools, so he naturally became even more irritable.
The generals and school inspecting the front camp naturally felt the king's dissatisfaction and said anxiously: "Report to the king, the partial army that attacked the Lu City of Hongnong Prefecture was raided by the Zhao army and almost destroyed the entire army."
"What?" Situ Fei immediately stood up and said in disbelief, "The news is sure? How is it possible?"
The other generals and officials were all shocked. Although the partial division was a partial division, the Zhao army could suppress the Lu City and dared not go out lightly. Even the Zhao army was suppressed and beaten by its own side. How could it be attacked by the Zhao army now? These people are the first.
The reaction was naturally that they did not believe that the situation would change suddenly. In a short while, their side fell below and was attacked by the Zhao army that was suppressed and beaten by themselves, and almost all the troops were over.
"The king, it was not the raid of the defenders of Lu's city, but the Zhao army reinforcements had appeared outside the Lu's city, attacking our army's camp at night, and the Zhao army in the city also took advantage of the situation to rush out. Our army was outnumbered and had a full battle.
The army was defeated. Now, many of the defeated soldiers from the partial division have fled ten miles west of our country."
"This... how is this possible? How could they be so fast?" Wang Hewen said to himself with horror. They also knew about the return of Zhao's reinforcements, but they did not expect that Zhao's reinforcements had already been
Appeared in front of me.
"What are you panic!" Situ Fei snorted coldly, then looked at the captain who reported the information, and asked with a pale face, "I only saw our defeated army? Have you seen the Zhao army pursuers?"
After hearing the king's question, the other generals and officials were stunned. Only then did they understand that the most critical thing was whether Zhao's reinforcements appeared here.
"Reporting to the king, he did not find the pursuers of the Zhao army. According to the defeated soldiers, the pursuers of the Zhao army only pursued him thirty miles from outside the Lu City and stopped chasing him."
"How did you arrange these defeated troops?"
"They have been arranged in one place alone, and they have not been allowed to enter the camp to meet the soldiers!"
"Very good, you did a good job! Bring the highest official position among them!" Situ Fei said coldly.
A moment later, a ragged lieutenant was brought in. Seeing the other party's appearance as a beggar, Situ Fei and the generals in the tent couldn't help but frown secretly.
"Are you the highest official position among the army outside the Lu family city?" Situ Fei frowned and said coldly.
"Reporting to the king, the youngest ones who can come back smoothly now are the ones with the highest positions. The others will either beheaded or captured by the Zhao army, or have fled to other places." The captain reported with a bitter face.
"How many reinforcements from Zhao army raided you? Let me tell you in detail about the attack."
"It should be five thousand people. According to the Zhao army's organization, it should be the cavalry of the Zhao army. Because General Qin Jiang received the order of the King of Army and was preparing to withdraw his troops. Unexpectedly, the Zhao army's cavalry all raided the rear of our camp in the middle of the night.
The cavalry advanced and burned our army's food and grass. Unpredictable, all our food and grass were destroyed, and the camp was also burned by the Zhao cavalry. General Qin led his army to resist, but at this moment, the Zhao army in the Lu City also took advantage of the situation to kill him.
When we entered, our army was defeated and the whole army was defeated."
"Where is Qin Jiang? He was killed?" Situ Fei frowned.
"General Qinjiang... General Qinjiang was defeated by Zhao's army and was captured and surrendered!" The captain carefully told the battle situation in detail, and told everyone about the surrender of Qinjiang one by one.
"Bastard!" Situ Fei slapped the table with a fierce clenched angrily, "Bastard, I'm useless to be so new to him, and I have even made him the commander of the army all the way. How dare I betray me and I betray me
.”
Wang Hewen said in a deep voice: "King, now is not the time to care about these things. It is best to withdraw the troops immediately. Although there were only one cavalry reinforcements outside the Lu City. However, it is not certain that there was only one Zhao army.
The cavalry have all gone south. If the Zhao army reinforcements arrive, we will be attacked on both sides."
He Zhaowu, a member of the army, shook his head and said, "I think that the reinforcements from the Zhao army went south are only this one cavalry. The cavalry speed is fast, so he can appear outside the Lu City beyond our expectations. If all the troops arrive, the Zhao army will not
I just raided our army camp outside the Lu City. I am afraid we will also be attacked by the Zhao army, and not until we waited until the defeated army outside the Lu City appeared here without any action."
The King of Hanzhong nodded and said, "What you said makes sense. The Zhao army caught us off guard. Damn, I thought of everything, but ignored the rapid action of the Zhao cavalry."
He Zhaowu continued: "However, my subordinates agree with Lord Wang's opinion, it is better for us to withdraw our troops immediately. It was yesterday that the Zhao army raided the partial divisions of our army outside the Lu City. So, the Zhao army in the Lu City is now
We can already join the Zhao army's cavalry and move towards us. In this way, although there is no Zhao army's tenth town to move south, our pressure also increases a lot, especially the existence of the Zhao army's cavalry, if they are with
The cavalry in the ninth town of Zhao army active behind us all gathered, so we would be in danger of cutting off food and grass and cutting off the back road."
"Even if they can't let us suffer any more, as long as they can hold us back, they can wait until the army of the tenth town goes south. If that's the case, we can..."
The King of Hanzhong nodded with a dark face and said in a deep voice: "I'll order the army outside Yongning City to withdraw immediately."
"By the way, since we will focus on the land of Hanzhong, then we cannot take care of the defenses of Jingbei and Jingnan. What do you think I will give the defenses of the two places to the King of Luoyang?"
Wang Hewen said in a deep voice: "The King Yu gave the defense of the two places to the King of Luoyang to us, but in this way, the King of Luoyang will bear the defense of the two lines, I am afraid that the King of Luoyang will not be happy. Last time he put Jingbei
Defense and Jingnan Defense took advantage of the internal struggle of the princes. They were not without the intention of preserving their strength. Now give it to him, how could the King of Luoyang do it?"
Military Sima Tianyu sneered: "He doesn't want to? Now he can't help but not. The defense of this Jingzhou land is not only about us, but also important to him. If we don't care, will the Luoyang King look at Zhao.
The army went south? He had his responsibilities to bear the defense of Jingzhou."
Another army Sima Weiping smiled bitterly and said, "Lao Tian, you are right. It is indeed the common responsibility and obligation of both sides. But the problem is that not only the Luo army is stationed in the defense of the two places, but we also need to arrange it here.
Manpower. But if we want to solve the problem of Hanzhong as soon as possible, we cannot arrange too many manpower in these two places. Especially this northern attack operation has caused great losses, we are afraid that the two places in Jingbei and Jingnan
Defense must be entrusted to the King of Luoyang.”
King Situ Fei of Hanzhong was silent for a little while and said in a deep voice: "I have lost Xiyongzhou now. Just like him, Dongyongzhou, we are the weakest two people, and I have given up part of Jingzhou's finances and taxes.
And Luo Jun can also be considered as compensation for defending the two places."
Tian Yu said in a muffled voice: "King, in addition to returning the proceeds from the Luoyang King to him, you also have to divide the compensation part of it?"
In the past, the Luo Army and the Han Army coalition took Jingzhou, and at first the two sides divided Jingzhou evenly. But later, because they wanted to defend the Zhao army in the north, defend the Qi army in the east, and defend the Shu army in the southwest, the two sides did not divide in detail, but merged together.
The two divided the finances and taxes in Jingzhou equally. However, since the Luoyang King lost Dongyongzhou and his strength has been greatly reduced, the Luoyang King took the initiative to transfer part of the finances and taxes to the King of Hanzhong. The King of Hanzhong did not think too much, and his ministers all suggested accepting it.
, to expand his strength, so Situ Fei accepted the gift from the King of Luoyang.
Now, the King of Hanzhong lost Xiyongzhou, and the land of Hanzhong was very dangerous. Therefore, the current King of Hanzhong and King of Luoyang are almost the same as each other, and even in terms of strength, the Luo army is even stronger than the Han army. After all,
The Han army had just experienced a great war, but the Luo army had been raising strength.
The strength of King Luoyang in the past has weakened, allowing the financial power to be the King of Hanzhong. Now the strength of King of Hanzhong is also weakened, how can we continue to occupy it? However, the King of Hanzhong now needs to solve the problem of Hanzhong and cannot take into account Jingzhou. Then, a simple return to King of Luoyang in the past has been replaced.
What is given up is naturally far from enough.
"I have to ask? Of course, I will give the Luo army part of our possession. Otherwise, do you think they will agree to the Jingzhou defense mission? We are hostile to the Shu army, and at the same time, we are not in line with the Qi army now. I want to see if I don't want to see
He needs to unite with the same weak Luoyang King. Only in this way can we stand up and talk to the Shu army and Qi army."
Seeing the depressed expressions of everyone, Situ Fei said coldly: "What? Not willing to accept it? The Luo army lost Dongyongzhou in the past, and they also handed over their own finances and taxes. Now it's our turn, can't you accept it? Let's talk about it.
, This problem also lies in ourselves. If you hadn't insisted on asking me to accept the King of Luoyang's gift, how could we do now?"
"Okay, now we will withdraw our troops south immediately. At the same time, we will send a scout to investigate the situation of the Zhao army. In addition, Wang Hewen, you will send someone to discuss this matter in detail with the King of Luoyang. Forget it, you should go and talk in person."
After a pause, Situ Fei continued: "We not only talk about Jingzhou's defense, but also say that we are both weak and want to join forces."
After saying that, Situ Fei sighed, "I used to sarcastically mocked the Luo army for losing Dongyongzhou, and the soldiers mocked the Luo army for being useless. Now, it's finally our turn. It's still my elder brother who is smart. After the loss of Dongyongzhou,
Ignore the opinions of the outside world and develop in a silence. Not only do I cut off the old and weak in the army and intensify training, but I also do the Luo army's actions on the people's livelihood in Jingzhou. Now, their reputation in Jingzhou is good, Kobe, and we are good at it. We are for the sake of
In order to force the Zhao army to evacuate Xiyongzhou, he lost a lot of reputation in Jingzhou."
Situ Fei's sigh made everyone in the tent speechless. Doesn't Situ Fei's sigh seem incompetent?
"King, I have a way to make the Zhao army in Henan Prefecture suffer a lot. However, this move will ruin our reputation!" Military Sima Tianyu suddenly said in a muffled voice.
"Oh? Let's hear it!" Situ Fei said sideways.
Tian Yu said in a muffled voice: "It is now the end of May, and the wheat in the fields is about to ripen. We can send people to destroy the fields. The people of Henan Prefecture are firm and clear the fields, and cooperate with the Zhao army to defend the city. If we destroy the fields here
Go, the local government of the Zhao army will have to bear the lives of these hundreds of thousands of people. In this way, the Zhao army must first solve the people's problems before the army can move south to relieve the pressure on our Jingbei."
"However, in this way, it is possible to anger the Zhao army, which will make the Zhao army go back south and attack our Jingbei. After all, after the Zhao army resolved the war in Xiyongzhou, they could mobilize more troops. In addition,
Our actions will also lead to the people here being very angry with us and even supporting the Zhao army's army to fight south. Therefore, after destroying the fields, the Zhao army would shrink Dongyongzhou to solve the local people's livelihood, or immediately rush the army to the south.
It's hard to say clearly."
Everyone in the Shuai Ting said this. They dared not give it easy for Tian Yu to say this. Who knows if they would make a mistake in their estimate?
The King of Hanzhong pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "Forget it, we should withdraw our troops and destroy the fertile land. Our reputation in Jingzhou is already very poor. If we continue like this, the consequences will be extremely bad. In addition, our current
The goal is the land of Hanzhong, where we cannot continue to provoke the Zhao army. Otherwise, we are afraid that it is impossible for us to change the center of gravity!"
"If the Zhao army targets us, and use our behavior here as an excuse, I am afraid that other princes will not be willing to support us in the fight against the Zhao army. Withdraw the troops!" Situ Fei said bitterly.
Shortly after the Han army retreated, the defenders of Lushi City would gather in the tenth town of cavalry to come to support. Of course, they were not going to keep all the Hanzhong Kings, but forced them to retreat to the Hanzhong Kings army.
After all, the main force of the King of Hanzhong is not comparable to the partial army where Qin Jiang is located. The King of Hanzhong attacked two cities here, gathering 50,000 to 60,000 troops, 40,000 to 50,000 civilians, and thousands of carriages, not more than 10,000 reinforcements plus
The defenders of the two cities can defeat the enemy. Especially the King of Hanzhong personally suppressed the formation. These Han soldiers would definitely not retreat easily, but would fight to the death with them. Such a situation was not what the Zhao army wanted.
Of course, the Han army under the main force had more powerful soldiers, including soldiers, armor and equipment, and food and supplies. Of course, their exploration of the surrounding areas was far stronger than the partial divisions under the Qinjiang army.
The reason why the Lushi City defenders and the Zhao cavalry let the defeated troops go was that they were only to let the Hanzhong King see the facts and leave themselves. Obviously, their goal was to achieve the speed of the Hanzhong King withdrawing his troops.
Faster than they want.
