Three days later, the city was closed.

"Kill!"

"Go up the ladder!"

"Well car!"

"Archer, cover with all your might!"

"Charge!"

"Kill it at any cost!"

The sudden big war broke out in World War I, there were still snowflakes in the sky, and in the snowy sky, the Kwantung Coalition Army, under the leadership of the alliance leader Yuan Shao, gathered 200,000 main forces, cleared the periphery overnight, and directly began to beat drums to attack the city.

"Are these princes all crazy?"

"Attack my city wall on a snowy day, look for death!"

At the head of the city, the two fierce generals of the Xiliang Army, Hua Xiong and Zhang Ji, stood side by side, and they watched the battle under the city wall in confusion.

The Xiliang Army led by them was stationed in Bishui Pass only the day before yesterday, and when they entered Bishui Pass, the main force of the Jingping Army had already left, and there was no surplus of 3,000 soldiers waiting for their stationing.

In fact, they all thought it was just a simple task.

Just a change of guard?

And there is no need to brave the wind and snow and be forced to fight in Hanoi.

The geographical advantage of the geographical location of Bishui Pass is too obvious, and it has been established for a long time, and it has been a majestic and boundless city for a long time, with thick walls in the city, and now it is the time when the snow is heavy, even if there is a battle, at most it is a fragmentary encounter outside the city, and it is impossible to break out a decisive battle.

So it's easy for them to move in.

But they had only rested for more than a day, not to mention being familiar with the defensive features of the various walls of Bishui Guancheng, and they didn't even have a firm foothold after camping, and suddenly they encountered a strong onslaught from the coalition forces, which blinded them at once.

"What do we do now?"

Hua Xiong stared at the coalition soldiers below, his fists clenched, his expression gloomy, and he asked coldly.

The dilemma is the current Xiliang Army.

"So far, what else can we do, do we want to withdraw from Bishui Pass and give up Bishui Pass, don't talk about the court, I'm afraid that the lord will not let us go first, and then the court will take the handle, the lord is controlled by others, and none of us want to live!"

Zhang Jike is a handsome talent under Dong Zhuo's command, not only strong in martial arts, but also very powerful in dispatching troops, he is a little ruthless: "Since they are going to fight, we can only accompany them to the end, there is Bishui Guancheng, I want to see, the Kwantung Coalition Army, what is there to fear!" ”

"Then fight!"

"I'm going to send the army up!"

"Be careful when arming, you must take care of both the left and right wings!"

"Form an echelon and leave a reserve!"

The two discussed and directly dispatched the main force of Xiliang to rely on the powerful city wall to respond to the strong attack on the city wall of the Kanto region.

Guancheng is a district in the north of the city.

The first battalion of the Jingping Army was stationed, with 3,000 soldiers and horses, and the armor did not leave the body, and the weapons did not take off, and they were ready to wait.

"Lord Captain, the Xiliang Army has gone to Guancheng!" The generals, who had been waiting for a long time, finally got an accurate message after the two scouts hurriedly entered the camp.

"They don't dare to go up when it's cold!"

Luo Ying is the left-behind general of the Jingping Army, the captain of the first battalion of Jingping, he was not surprised when he heard this, but just nodded lightly.

In the final analysis, Bishui Pass is a pass that the Jingping Army has been operating for more than a year, and no one is necessarily more familiar with the Jingping Army, and it will be a main battlefield in the future, so it is impossible to give it to the Xiliang Army.

"Order logistics, try your best to ensure the supply of grain and grass for the Xiliang Army to be a soldier, and in addition, all the secret underground warehouses established by our Jingping Army in the city are all closed, and they are not allowed to enter or exit, and the warehouses on the bright side can leave the grain and grass for March!"

After Luo Ying thought about it, he commanded.

The Jingping army has a foothold here, and naturally established countless warehouses, including armory depots and grain depots, and in a previous business war, hundreds of thousands of stone of grain were transported to Bishui Pass, which is enough to support the war in Bishui Pass, and this part of the thing is impossible for the Xiliang Army to discover.

"Yes!" The two military marquis went to do this in person.

"One more thing!"

Luo Ying instructed all his subordinates, saying: "From now on, all the soldiers of my Jingping First Battalion are not allowed to leave the camp without reason, and they are not allowed to provoke trouble without reason, now is the critical moment, our main force has rushed to Hanoi, and the task of our first battalion is to take root in Bishui Pass, and we can't let the Xiliang Army catch the handle and expel us!" ”

Now in Bishui Pass, Xiliang's main fist is the largest, and their thousands of Jingping soldiers will learn to bow their heads and be people, if they are caught and expelled, I am afraid that the pass built by one hand will fall into Xiliang.

Whether it is the officers and men of the Xiliang Army or the people of the pastoral party, they all know that the alliance between them is only in the situation, and for the sake of the overall situation, there will be no real trust between the two sides, and precautions are necessary.

"No!"

The generals will take the command.

After half a ring, Luo Ying opened the curtain of the camp gate and looked at the snow outside: "I hope everything goes well in Hanoi, if Hanoi can't be solved before the beginning of spring, Bishui Pass will change hands!" ”

……

……

The crossing of the Yellow River, fireworks gather.

This is a small town, surrounded by mountains and rivers, leaning on a big mountain, facing the Yellow River, facing the ferry, and the back is the mountain, and there are many people coming and going.

"At this time, there should be a fight in Bishui Pass, right?"

The main force of the Jingping army traveled to this place, rested for a while, and prepared the tools to cross the river, so temporarily camped down, under the tent, Mu Jing raised his head, and watched the snowflakes fall from the sky and fall on the ground.

"If nothing else, there must be a fight!"

Xi Zhicai reminded: "But don't have too much hope, the Kwantung Coalition Army is not stupid, they are just recalling a face, encouraging the morale of the army, they will not die in Bishui Pass, it will not take a few days, when they realize that Bishui Pass is a hard bone, they will definitely retreat!" ”

"Of course I know!"

Mu Jing smiled and said: "But high-intensity combat has always been two-sided, if the Bishui Pass is ruthless, the Kwantung heroes may retreat, but if the Xiliang Army suffers a loss, it will not take half a step back, this move is still good!" ”

"That's right!" Xi Zhicai nodded with a smile, he had to admit that Mu Ji's move was very good, several layers deeper than the calculations of those old foxes.

"Hey, I'm more worried about us here now!"

Mu Jing stretched out his hand, put a few snowflakes in the palm of his hand, watched it melt under the body temperature of his palm, and said: "It took us three days to march to this point, if we want to recover Hedong and defeat the Hanoi army according to the plan, we must be a little slow to march, it is difficult to achieve the goal!" ”

"The wind is cold and snowy, the official roads are covered with snow, and the march is too difficult!"

Xi Zhicai stood beside Mu Jing, smiled slightly wryly, and said, "I thought it was too easy before, and the plan had to be changed." ”

It is not unreasonable that many people are reluctant to fight in winter, and fighting in this quarter will be twice as effective, and the difficulty of marching alone can make many people be blocked from it.

Jingping's army is an elite, but there are too many recruits gathered before, even after training, there is still no sharpening of the battle line, and it is not a strong general.

So the speed of the march could not be as they wished.

"Your plan is fine!"

Mu Jing shook his head, although now that the army is marching, they are a little inappropriate with the plan they made before, but it is not without a chance, he said: "There is a sentence that you are not wrong, it is not how we want to choose to fight, it is a choice that we have at all, only lightning operation, Cai's only way out, we can't defeat Wang Kuang in a short time, this piece of dog skin plaster in Hanoi is equivalent to sticking to us!" ”

For the sake of the overall situation, Xi Zhicai's battle plan is not wrong at all.

This is how it is implemented that matters most.

"Shizi, news from Jing Wusi!"

At this time, a personal guard handed him a secret letter, and the secret letter had the unique brand of Jing Wusi, so he was very relieved to open it and look at it.

After seeing it, his face was a little ugly.

"What's wrong?" Xi Zhicai asked.

"See for yourself!"

Mu Jingchang sighed and handed the secret letter to Xi Zhicai.

Xi Zhicai hurriedly went to see it, and when he saw it, he suddenly thundered: "Huaixian, which Wang Kuang abandoned, withdrew the Hanoi army to Chaoge City?" ”

Huai is the county seat of Hanoi.

Hanoi Wang Kuang gathered tens of thousands of Hanoi troops, basically all of them were guarding Huaicheng, and Su Yoyi's previous goal was to fight Huaicheng quickly and quickly, and move away from Hanoi's rebellious heart in one fell swoop.

But now Wang Kuang suddenly dispatched the main force to the north, and Chaoge, who had withdrawn from Huaixian, suddenly disrupted their plan.

Huai County is not far from them, three hundred miles at most.

However, Chaoge is already close to the location of Shangdang and Jizhou, and it is at least five or six hundred miles north.

"The news has leaked!"

Xi Zhicai said coldly.

"You mean, Wang Kuang knows that we sent troops to recruit him?" Mu Jing squinted: "That's why I moved north, from Huaixian County to Chaoge, to avoid our attack!" ”

"Definitely!"

"But how could they get news so quickly, it is logically impossible!"

Mu Jing frowned, a little puzzled.

"It won't be the news that we leaked here, first of all, our Jingping army marched carefully, and it was covered by wind and snow, and even if the Hanoi Shi clan had eyeliners all over Hanoi, we hadn't entered Hanoi yet, and it was impossible to alarm them, even if we had a problem here, with our marching speed, they didn't have time to prepare, there must be a problem in the capital, so the Hanoi army had already made plans to withdraw into Chaoge, and planned for at least ten days, so they would take advantage of the situation to withdraw the main force of the Hanoi army into Chaoge and rely on Chaoge City to resist!"

Xi Zhicai asserted: "This has confirmed what I thought before, the Hanoi Rebellion must be related to the capital, and some people even want to use the Hanoi Rebellion to help the Kwantung princes attack the capital......"

There was a sentence that he didn't say as a Hanchen.

"Son of Heaven?"

Mu Jing understood, and he said gloomily.

"Maybe!" Xi Zhicai was silent for a moment and did not make his words clear.

"The loyal ministers of the Liu family are really innumerable, and they are endless!"

Mu Jing shouted, clenched his fists, and said coldly: "These old guys, when are they all in the nest, dealing with our Mu clan, don't they know that once the coalition army breaks through the capital, let alone us, the Han will die!" ”

In the court, many old ministers regard the Mu clan as a thorn in the flesh, and it is not impossible to come out and make trouble at this time, and they are above the court, and any action of the Mu clan is under their noses, and it is not difficult to calculate.

"Now is not the time to change your strategy!" Xi Zhicai said.

"Strategy shouldn't be!"

Mu Jing said coldly: "There is no difference between beating Huaixian and fighting Chaoge!" ”

"But this time it is difficult to strengthen our march, towards Song City, at least six or seven hundred miles north, this kind of weather, we can't go a hundred miles a day!"

"This year's weather in the capital is colder than in previous years, the sky is snowing heavily, and the snow on the ground has accumulated more than a foot, and snow may be a good helper!"

Mu Jing's eyes stared at the falling snowflakes outside, and said gloomily: "I have a way to increase the speed of the march, give me an order to go down, the army will rest here for a day, and then cross the river after a day, and gather all the craftsmen of the Jingping army." ”

"Another day off?"

Xi Zhicai was stunned for a moment.

"I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, and I can't sharpen my knife and chop wood!" Mu Jing said calmly.

The army was stationed.

……

Asaha City.

This is the former great Shang capital, even if more than a thousand years have passed, you can still see the atmosphere of the former Shang Dynasty from the outline of the city wall.

City.

Wang Kuang took a sip of hot water, moistened his cold-filled body, and then said to the middle-aged man beside him: "Thank you Brother Sima for your support!" ”

Without the support of the Sima family, he would not have summoned the Hanoi army so easily to conquer the imperial court.

Without the support of the Sima family, he would not have been able to quickly move north from Huai County.

In this Hanoi county, although he is a Taishou, the uncrowned king is always the Sima family, and only with the support of the Sima family can he gain a firm foothold in this Hanoi county.

"The king is too polite!"

Sima Fang said calmly: "There is a national thief in the court, the Son of Heaven was robbed, and he defended himself as a Hanchen, but he was unable to return to heaven, so he only resigned and returned to his hometown, and now he is just doing his best!" ”

"Master Sima, please rest assured, there are righteous people in the world, who will be able to break the army of herdsmen, rescue Your Majesty, and return the Han to Lang Lang Qingtian!" Wang Kuang said: "Now that we have moved to Chaoge, the imperial court whip is beyond the reach of the whip, and we must not have any thoughts about my Hanoi army, and when the spring of the next year is opened, the coalition army will attack Bishui Pass, and I can wave my army to the south and approach Luoyang City!" ”

"Hopefully!"

Sima Fang heard this, but there was a trace of pessimism.

In the capital, he fought with the Mu Dang more than once, and the Yuan family was beheaded, but it made him have a trace of jealousy towards Mu Shan.

"Wang Taishou, don't take it lightly!" Sima Fang instructed and said: "The pastoral party is full of talents, and it should not be underestimated, maybe it ......"

"Hahaha!"

Wang Kuang laughed: "With such a climate, if it was in Huaixian, I might be afraid of three points, but in Chaoge, they didn't dare to come!" ”

Huaixian is too close to Luoyang, and the main force of the pastoral department can send troops at any time.

But Chaoge, he didn't believe that the pastoral department would brave such a wind and snow, walk seven or eight hundred miles, and conquer their Hanoi army, and besides, the Hanoi army is not a vegetarian, although they are all young and strong people who have only recently been recruited, but they have enough food and weapons to fight.

Sima Fang thought about it, and nodded, it was Wang Yun's suggestion to move to Chaoge, when Wang Kuang raised his troops to attack Mushan, he already had such a plan to prevent the herding soldiers and horses from sending troops to Ping Hanoi in the cold winter.

As long as the Hanoi army is stationed in Chaoge City, it will definitely be safe and sound.
