Chapter 1463: The Han Flag World (153) guards to death, and the breakthrough is also dead
Qu Wan saw that he couldn't do anything, so in order to prevent his remaining more than 100,000 sons from finally falling on the land of a foreign land, he chose to surrender. His surrender made the situation in the whole south immediately brighter, and the two Qin army troops that broke into Wulong fell into a desperate situation in an instant, Guli's Xiongnu Independent Cavalry Division, Agu Huaien's Donghu Independent Cavalry Division, and the 10,000 cavalry led by Gongsun Yitong were originally to rescue Yingshui, but now they immediately turned to Wulong and began to attack the Qin army, and the first and second divisions of Yang Dasha's First Army from Wuguan also immediately rushed to Wulong, and blocked more than 40,000 southern border troops and more than 30,000 Xuanyi guards led by Meng Yong in Wulong.
Meng Yong fell into despair, the logistical supply route was cut off, and he knew very well that there were no reinforcements at all. Now the troops of the Qin State, one led by Xu Yahua to send a letter to Guguan to attack Jinyang, the other led by Wang Changyong, out of Shannan County to attack Jishi, Dayan and the two places, Bai Qi led the 50,000 new army was firmly dragged in the land of Bashu by the Shu rebel army, and the few remaining Lu Chao descendants were stationed in Xianyang, and it was impossible to rescue him.
Wulong is a Jedi, here, first looted by Lu Chao, and then after the Han army took control of it, in order to lure the enemy deeper, another large retreat was carried out, and the result of clearing the field was that the Qin army could not even supply on the spot.
With nearly 80,000 troops, the daily consumption is a terrifying number, and the grain and grass carried by the army are about to turn to the sky when they see it.
30,000 Xuanyi guards were stationed in the county town of Wulong, and the 40,000 southern border troops took the county town of Wulong as the center of the circle, and deployed defenses in Slate Town, Changgou Town, and Yanping Town, forming a semi-circular defensive circle.
"Although we occupy the three towns of Slate, Changgou and Yanping, there is no way to completely connect these three places, and the Han army is dominated by cavalry and can be interspersed with the rear of our army at any time. Therefore, after the war started, Xuanyiwei must not retreat in the city and do not move, and must attack from time to time, cooperate with our army, and defeat the Han army interspersed in, otherwise, as long as one of these three places is broken through, it will form a chain effect, and the other two places will not be able to hold. Wang Ming stood in front of the map and said to Meng Yong and Lu Zihui.
Now among the three generals of Wulong. The only thing with real war experience is Wang Ming, the former deputy general of the Western Frontier Army, Meng Yong is the son of Meng Tian, and he has read a lot of military books, but if he really wants to apply it to practice, he will inevitably be in a hurry, Lu Chao sent him over not because his army is slightly outstanding, but because he took a fancy to the tens of thousands of elites of the Southern Border Army is his father's old department, and the 200,000 Southern Border Army was dismantled in a mess, that is, this one under Zhou Yu. was saved by Zhou Yu. And Lu Zihui, he has personal ability, but the same problem is also here, and the Xuanyi guard, who has been stationed in Xianyang for a long time, has too few opportunities to go to the battlefield. Over the years, the only battle was at Hangu Pass, led by King Wulie of Qin to defend the checkpoint.
"General Wang, we can't defend it! The grain and grass will not last long. Meng Yong rubbed his hands nervously. looked at Gou Yi beside him: "General Gou, how much grain and grass do we have?" ”
Gou Yi's face was gloomy, and he never imagined that things would suddenly develop to this place. "I have ordered that from today onwards, there will be only one meal a day in the army. Even so, it won't last more than half a month. ”
"General Wang Ming, with today's plan, I'm afraid that we can only break through the siege." Lu Zihui said.
"Breakout?" Wang Ming laughed and laughed: "General Lu, the main force of the Han army surrounding us is three cavalry divisions, do you want to give up a strong defense in front of the iron cavalry of the Han army and fight a field battle with them?" ”
"Xuanyi is invincible in the world." Lu Zihui stiffened his face, "Staying here, just waiting for death, only a breakthrough, there is still a glimmer of life." ”
"Break through, only die faster!" Wang Ming said categorically. "I'm sure that the only way for us to return to the south must be the First Army of the Han Young Guards. Trying to break their defense is not something that can be done in a short time, and being bitten by the Han cavalry in the middle is disastrous for our infantry-based troops. ”
"We can't defend it, we can't break through, what can we do? What the hell is Qu Wan doing? Meng Yong muttered.
Wang Ming smiled bitterly: "Do you need to say this?" Qu Wan must be finished, and the three Han cavalry divisions left the Jingzhou theater, which can only show that Chu Guoying has been captured, and the main force of the Han army is rushing towards our side. ”
"After the 150,000 army, that's it?" Meng Yong's eyes widened.
"It's not necessarily all over, but as long as Qu Wan knows that Yingdu has been captured, he won't fight anymore, because everything has lost its meaning. Most likely, he has already surrendered to the Han army. Wang Ming's face was gloomy.
"In this case, we must break through, General Wang, no matter what I do to you, we must break through." Lu Zihui stood up again, "If you hesitate any longer, when the Han army arrives, we won't even have the slightest chance, even if it is the Young Guards who are blocking in front of us, I will fight with them." ”
"If you want to fight, our southern border army will not accompany you." Wang Ming said coldly. "You have to kill yourself, don't pull the southern border army."
"What can you do here? Waiting to die? Lu Zihui yelled.
"Staying here, even if you wait for death, is better than dying right away." Wang Ming ridiculed each other.
"Don't fight with each other, now is the time to work together, together will benefit both sides, and divide will lose both. We can always come up with a good solution. Meng Yong watched the two generals arguing, and could only be a peacemaker in the middle.
Wang Ming stood up and said coldly: "Xuanyi Wei wants to leave, I won't stop it, but I am not allowed to take away a single grain and grass, otherwise, you will not be able to get out of my defense area." ”
"You dare!" Lu Zihui slapped the table and shouted.
"You can give it a try!" Wang Ming glanced at him, turned around, and walked out of the conference hall.
The discussion broke up unhappily, Meng Yong was full of sorrow, he was the nominal commander, but the real leaders of the two armies were Wang Ming and Lu Zihui, and now the two of them were in trouble, he couldn't do anything, and the same was true of Gouyi, when Lu Chao stood behind him, everyone had to sell his face, but now that he was in a desperate situation, Lu Chao couldn't reach him, and he could no longer maintain his authority to suppress Lu Zihui and Wang Ming.
At the third watch, Gou Yi hurriedly knocked on Meng Yong's door, "Meng Houye, Lu Zihui has gathered the generals of the Xuanyi Guard, and has decided to break through." ”
Meng Yong was shocked, "If Lu Zihui really does this, what if Wang Mingjian doesn't agree?" ”
Gou Yi sighed: "Meng Houye, now that the two armies have turned their faces, Xuanyiwei can barely suppress it, and the southern border army can only look at you, you go and tell Wang Ming, let Xuanyiwei bring three days of food to break through, it can be regarded as an outpost for them, if you can't break out in three days, then it will basically be useless." If they can tear a gap, the southern border army may be able to get lucky to get out along this opening. ”
"General Gou, the Han army has three cavalry divisions!" Meng Yong sighed.
"Lu Zihui is right, if you stay here, sooner or later you will die, and there is no way to live at all. Break through, if you can run one is counted as one, you can't cook all the pots here, or you can beat the Han army by surprise! Gou Yi smiled bitterly: "I have decided to break through with Xuanyiwei, what about you, Hou Ye, do you want to stay here, or follow us?" ”
Meng Yong was stunned for a moment, "Forget it, I'll stay here, I'll go to Wang Ming, let him see my face, and when you break through, you can support it!" ”
Xuanyiwei decided to break through, and the southern border army of Wulong County was taken over by Wang Ming, Wang Ming transferred 15,000 border troops into Wulong County, agreed that Xuanyiwei took away three days of grain and grass, and in the early hours of the morning, ordered the defenders of Changgou and Yanping to make a feint to confuse the Han cavalry on the periphery, so that they mistakenly thought that the Qin army would break through, and after successfully mobilizing the Han cavalry, the two defenders quickly retracted back to the starting place, and at the same time, 30,000 Xuanyiwei were already attacking outward from the slate.
The Han army did not expect that the Qin people would be divided into two parts at this time, one to defend and the other to break through, Wang Ming's feint did attract the attention of Gongsun Yi and Agu Huaien, but in the direction of the slate, there was also Gu Li's cavalry division.
The 30,000 Xuanyi guards with 5,000 cavalry as the main force tried to have a decisive battle with Gu Li's Hun cavalry division, but to their disappointment, Gu Li led the troops to retreat, and the 5,000 cavalry did not dare to leave the infantry brigade too far.
As soon as the Xuanyi Guard cavalry left, Gu Li's cavalry division immediately bit the Xuanyi Guard's infantry brigade, and the 5,000 cavalry of the division were divided into several waves, constantly tearing the flesh and blood of the Xuanyi Guard along the way. Decrease the speed of Xuanyiwei's advance again and again.
At this time, Yang Dasha had already lined up on the road that Xuanyiwei had to pass, and was waiting for Xuanyiwei to bump into him. When the sky was bright, Gou Yi and Lu Zihui saw clearly in front of them, the army of 20,000 Han soldiers lined up blocked their inevitable road, rows of artillery with their heads held high, and the muzzles of the black holes pointed directly at most of the Qin army.
And on either side of them, Guli's cavalry division had already pressed up. Five thousand cavalry galloped and roared straight into the flanks of the Xuanyi guard.
"Cavalry, charge!" Lu Zihui shouted angrily, if he couldn't break through the young guards on the opposite side, the whole army of Xuanyi Wei would be wiped out here today.
"Fire!" In the Han army's formation, the roar of the artillery officer was already sounding at the same time.
There was a loud sound, puffs of smoke, and one after another flowering bullets flew into the sky and fell towards the galloping Qin cavalry, and behind the artillery, a divine crossbow was also aimed in the direction of the cavalry, and their goal was to intercept the enemy who had broken through the artillery attack. Farther back, foot soldiers armed with spears, forming a forest of spears. (To be continued.) )
