Chapter 191: Gan Ning is reckless, Jia Xu is a lobbyist
Zhang Chu is the son of the Zhang family in the five major families in the capital, over forty years old, has the ability to govern the world, is one of the people who went south with Wang Ling to resist the barbarians, and later ordered Hao Jun to guard Tianwu, named Xin'an County Guard, and the southern Xinjiang is in the horn of the momentum, take care of each other.
Hao Junwuguan was defeated, three tigers died and one tiger was disabled, and Hao Jun also happened overnight.
Eryuan fled to the north, and when he passed through Xin'an, he opened the city gate by fraud, and went to Tianwu City to get all the gold, silver and money, and then went to Beiwu.
Zhang Chu, who only got the news the next day, was extremely remorseful, but Eryuan walked for another day and night, unable to chase him, so he had to mobilize the whole county and county officials, militia officials, etc., a total of 20,000 people, personally led, and wanted to go to Zhongshan to aid Hao's army.
Unexpectedly, Huang Zhong and Lu Wenlong, the generals of southern Xinjiang, each led thousands of iron horses to wander on the road between Zhongshan and Xin'an.
The two places are mostly flat, suitable for cavalry combat, the southern Xinjiang war cavalry is good at riding and shooting, knows how to ride the formation, Zhang Chu did not dare to go out of the city to fight, had to first report the news to Hao Xing, who stayed in Tianwu City, and stationed troops in Xin'an Shangxian and other places, waiting for the opportunity.
The easternmost part of Xin'an County is Shangxian County, which is connected to Pujiang County.
After Pujiang County was broken, although he knew that Zhao Yun needed a lot of time to deal with military and political affairs, the cautious Zhang Chu still ordered the county lieutenant Zhang Xin to lead 5,000 miscellaneous soldiers to guard the county in case of Zhao Yun.
It was the beginning of spring and mid-February of 2018 in the Continent of Heaven.
Gan Ning got the order, bid farewell to his newlywed wife Xiong on the third day, and entered Pujiang City with the army of Wenbin Jia Xu.
The news that Wen Ping and Jia Xu led 30,000 troops into Pujiang began to become known.
Zhao Yun did not dare to slack off, and led 30,000 southern Xinjiang troops with Gan Ning Jia Xu to go directly to the county, while Wenpin guarded Wajia Pass, and Gao Shun and Zhu Huan were stationed in Pujiang City to Zhenpujiang Xiaoxiao.
Inevitably the news was lost, Zhao Yun and Gan Ning hurriedly whipped their horses, rushed all the way, and when they reached the county seat, they saw that the city was heavily guarded.
Zhao Yun couldn't help frowning, and said to Gan Ning and Jia Xu: "My army is in a hurry, and I don't bring large siege equipment, why don't I order the soldiers to build earth mountains, build cloud ladders, build rainbow bridges, and then attack the city?" ”
"This method is all time-consuming, if the Xin'an reinforcements arrive, it will be more difficult to attack the city, our army has just arrived, the morale is sharp, and the momentum of the victory the day before yesterday, you can rely on this sharp momentum to fight to attack the city, and the county can be broken with a snap of your fingers!" Jia Xu twisted his beard lightly.
Zhao Yun ordered the three armies to be fed and recuperate, until in the afternoon, when the weather was slightly cool, the war drums sounded, and the officers and men of the three armies set up rough ladders and attacked the county town with steel knives.
Zhang Xin in the city got the news early, asked for help from Xin'an on the one hand, and personally came forward to defend the town, commanding the soldiers to fire thousands of arrows, like rain, Gan Ning carried the knife of dividing the river and breaking the waves, holding the iron cable across the river, and marched forward with arrows and stones, Zhang Xin was afraid of Gan Ning's bravery, so he ordered the left and right salvos of Gan Ning.
Gan Ning danced the iron rope of the Hengjiang River, set aside the arrow forest, in the free period when the second wave of arrow rain did not come, to see that it was only nearly a zhang away from the city head, so he pulled the ladder with his left hand, and almost broke the horizontal log, but he jumped on the city head with his strength, knocked down several archers on the city head, and untied the river and wave breaking knife from behind, slashed horizontally and vertically, one by one, and cut the left and right Xin'an sergeants into two.
When Zhao Yun saw it, he personally beat the drum, and the sound of the cowhide drum became resounding throughout the sky, deafening, and the sound of dong continued to enter the ears of the entire southern Xinjiang army.
The 30,000 southern Xinjiang troops saw Gan Ning kill the head of the city, invincible, and listened to the sound of Zhao Yun's drums, all of them looked excited, fought bravely, climbed to the head of the city, and started a white-knives battle with the Xin'an sergeants, fighting for control of the city.
Gan Ning opened a bloody road, no one dared to pick up his front, he walked straight and saw Zhang Xin, who was constantly commanding soldiers and horses to fight at the head of the city.
Gan Ning shook his spirits, flew the eaves and walked on the wall, the iron rope grabbed the blade, and threw it out with a flying knife, the dark red blade slashed, and several guards on the left and right were killed instantly, and then a rope killed the frightened Zhang Xin.
Rushed to the place where the Xin'an sergeants gathered, rushed back and forth to kill, the Xin'an sergeants were defeated and retreated, and were massively climbed to the top of the city by the southern Xinjiang army.
Towards evening, the three armies captured Shangxian in one go.
That is, the county was obtained, the soldiers and horses rested for one night, and the army advanced again the next day, breaking through several counties in the west, and killed under the city of Xin'an on the same day.
Zhang Chu was afraid that Huang Zhong and Lu Wenlong would attack the southern county town, leaving five or six thousand soldiers and horses to garrison, and the soldiers and horses in Xin'an City were only nearly 10,000, and most of them were militia officers who had not served on the battlefield, and there was not much difference between the fighters and the people, how could they be able to defeat more than 30,000 well-trained and experienced soldiers in southern Xinjiang.
Xin'an City was surrounded on all sides, and the soldiers in the city had no desire to fight, Zhang Chu was worried, but helpless.
That night, Jia Xu rode into Xin'an City alone, passed by, talked to Zhang Chu about the benefits and disadvantages, and then guided Wang Ling Jiuen, Chu and Zhang were friendly, and Zhang Chu went out of the city to surrender.
Zhao Yun's army entered Xin'an, and on the one hand, Gao Shun led the troops to settle in Shangxian, and on the other hand, he collected soldiers and inspected the city pass, just in case.
At this point, Tianwu except for Zhongshan City, Tianwu City and the northern land, all owned by Southern Xinjiang, Tianwu Army announced that it had withdrawn from the stage of hegemony and became a vassal of the Southern Xinjiang Army.
Chu Yi originally had an army of 2,120,000, leaving 10,000 people stationed in Wuguan, 60,000 and Zhao Yunwen to take Lingjiang and Pujiang in the east, 30,000 and Hua Rong to take Fangling counties in the west, and nearly 10,000 cavalry and Huang Zhong and Lu Wenlong to swim in the field, and now the Chinese army camp is only about 100,000 people.
The 100,000 people were divided into two armies, Jiang Wei and Lin Chong each led an army, and took turns attacking Zhongshan City day and night, and were held by Hao Jun and Chen Zhi, Chen Chen, Tang Wei, Yuan Jiang and other generals who had already awakened.
As for Wu Rui, because his left ear was cut off by Mu Guiying, he was severely injured mentally and physically, and was arranged to rest in the city.
Although Zhongshan is a strong city, there is no danger on all sides, and it has been surrounded by the southern Xinjiang army on all sides for nearly a month, not to mention the loss of troops and demolition, and the city has also been greatly damaged.
A few days later, Xin'an was broken, the news of Zhang Chu's surrender spread all over the world, Hao Jun and Chu Yi got the news at the same time, Hao Jun was silent, and Chu Yi stroked his palms and laughed in front of the generals, and gave several orders, so that the first army of Huarong in the west took the dangerous road to take Tianwu City, and ordered the first army of Dongfang Wenpin to leave Mi Fang to guard the Lingjiang River, Zhu Huan to guard the Pujiang River, and lead the troops to the west to help the war, so that the first army of Zhao Yun in the north stayed in Ganning to defend Xin'an, and Huang Zhong and Lu Wenlong went south to help in the war, vowing to take Zhongshan City in one go!
If Zhongshan captures Hao Jun, Tianwu will be decided!
In Tianwu City, Hao Xing, the son of Hao Jun, was dressed in silver armor and silver robes, heroic, left and right were Sun Tong and Li Chong, Sun Tong's more than 60,000 naval troops could not break Jiang Qin in a short period of time on the water, so they returned to Tianwu City from the waterway, abandoned the boat, and Li Chong, who came to the south aid, and 100,000 Tianwu troops were ready to go south to aid Hao Jun.
But Xin'an was broken, and the news of Zhang Chu's surrender stunned Hao Xing.
Hao Xing knows that the general trend has gone, but as a son of man, there is something to do and something to do, and it is necessary to go south to rescue!
Nearly 100,000 horses and horses drove to Xin'an, Li Chong volunteered, led the headquarters of 15,000 cavalry as a vanguard, regained the northern counties of Xin'an, and the front of the army pointed directly at Xin'an City, which was guarded by Gan Ning!
