Chapter 214: Under the City of Jiyang
"Father..." At this time, a person in full military uniform walked into the hall, and after coming in, he saluted and said: "Father, just now the battle report came from Jiyang, and the Qi army has been killed under the city of Jiyang..."
This person, who is called the father of the King of Wei, is the crown prince of Wei.
The news of Pushui's defeat came, and the King of Wei once again planned to send people to the front to defend the city, and the crown prince was the main general, but the advance speed of Qi was too fast, and Daliang City received news that Pushui was defeated the day before yesterday, and as a result, Daliang's army had not yet set off, and the Qi army was about to kill Daliang.
"Jiyang..." King Wei exclaimed: "It's so fast, it's only a day or two away from Daliang." ”
"Prince, can there be a messenger from the Qi Kingdom?"
The crown prince shook his head and said: "Back to my father, there has been no envoy from the Qi country, and Cheng Lingjun has sent a message that he has been fighting fiercely with the Qi army in Jiyang for a day, repelled the attacks of the Qi army several times, and intends to defend Jiyang to the death. ”
King Wei let out a long breath: "Okay, good, fortunately, Jiyang hasn't lost it yet." ”
"Prince, tell Cheng Lingjun that if Jiyang is also lost, then Cheng Lingjun will not have to go back to Daliang."
The prince's heart suddenly burst into his heart, and he said respectfully: "It's my father." ”
After the crown prince left, King Wei wanted Tian to ask: "Xiangguo, now that the vanguard of Qi has passed to Jiyang, but there is no envoy to come, what should I do?" ”
Tian Xu said: "King, since Cheng Lingjun has blocked the Qi army in Jiyang, then we can wait for a few days, the reinforcements of the Chu State will arrive soon, and then let the two countries of Qi and Chu fight, at this point, whoever wins will take refuge in whom, if both sides lose, it will be better." ”
"Okay, according to Xiangguo's words, send someone to ask the Chu army to speed up and let Chu go and fight with Qi."
·······
"What? Cheng Lingjun failed miserably in Pushui! ”
"The Qi army is advancing extremely fast and is heading towards Daliang!"
"The vanguard of the Qi army has arrived in Jiyang! Only a day away from the girder? ”
“······”
When Tang Wu got the news of Wei State, he immediately looked incredulous.
When they left Chendi, the Wei and Qi armies were still facing each other, and when they joined the Han army, they had not yet started fighting.
It has only been six or seven days, not only is the decisive battle between the two armies of Qi and Wei over, but the Qi army is almost in the capital of Wei.
What's going on?
Uncle Gong, the chief general of the Han army on Tang Yu's side, said in surprise: "General Tang, I remember that the last time the Qi State accepted the invitation of Prince Yan Taiping, even if the people of the Yan State welcomed the Qi army with a pot of wine, it took a month for the Qi army to reach Jicheng, could it be that this time the Wei State also had a matter of eating a pot of wine?" ”
Tang Yu's expression of deep approval was really surprising.
It's not that everyone doesn't know the combat effectiveness of the Qi army, when it became so powerful.
This situation only shows one thing, that is, the Wei State did not resist at all, and directly surrendered.
"Uncle, now that the King of Wei has sent a message that Jiyang is under siege, please don't have to continue to the west bank of Pushui, but divert to rescue Jiyang City."
Uncle sighed and said, "Since King Wei is invited, let's go to Jiyang." ”
Tang Yu ordered: "Pass my general's order, the army will be rerouted and set off towards Jiyang." ”
Under the city of Jiyang.
After Dr. Gao Tang was stationed in the camp, he immediately went to inquire about the news of Shengzi and the Tianye Association.
In the evening of the same day, the sound came with the news.
Shengzi was blocked in boiling dates, and was preparing to command 30,000 Qi troops to officially attack the city tomorrow.
As for why there is no siege today.
That's because yesterday there was a small setback, and then the camp was stolen at night, although there are reinforcements arriving today, but the people are panicked, morale is lost, can only rest for another day, decided to fight tomorrow and cook dates.
At noon the next day, Dr. Gao Tang finally got the news of the Athletics Association.
After getting the news, Dr. Gao Tang couldn't wait to slash the Tianxie.
The 20,000 troops led by the Tianye Association were delayed on the road, and now they are still more than two days away from Jiyang.
As for the reason for the delay, it was blocked in the Wei city.
Unlike Shengzi, the Athletics Association is not blocked, but actively blocked.
After the Athletics Association broke through Chengyang, they wantonly burned, killed and plundered for a day before leaving Chengyang.
Then he endured two cities, and at the fourth city, he again plundered the small city inside and out, and the army was delayed.
Day 3.
Dr. Gao Tang, who was eager to wear it, did not wait for any reinforcements, Shengzi was still blocked from cooking dates, and the Tianxi Association was still on the way.
However, the stragglers under his command followed one after another, and 13,000 men were regrouped in their hands.
However, the opposite Jiyang City increased its troops, and the defeated troops of the Battle of Pushui fled to Jiyang one after another, some entered Jiyang City, and some continued to go to Daliang.
These are all elite soldiers brought to Pushui by Cheng Lingjun from Daliang.
Now the total strength of Jiyang City is more than that of the Tang Dynasty outside the city.
Tian Yi, who was already suspicious of attacking the city, is even less planning to attack the city now.
Day 4.
Dr. Gao Tang waited from morning to noon, and from noon to afternoon.
Finally a large army came.
However, it was not the Qi army from the east, but the Chu-Han coalition army from the south.
“······” After Dr. Gao Tang got the news, his face was full of iron, and then an order burst out of the corner of his mouth: "Order, strengthen vigilance, after nightfall, we will retreat to cook dates overnight." ”
"Another person quickly summoned the general, saying that the reinforcements of the Chu State have arrived, please prepare the general."
"Send a summons to Tian Xie and tell him the news that the reinforcements from the Chu State have arrived."
Then he took out a silk cloth and said loudly: "Bring pen and ink, I want to write to the king to impeach General Tian Xie for the crime of delaying the military plane." ”
Chu Jun.
When Tang Yu arrived at Jiyang with a large army, what he saw was that the Wei army was in a cold war with the Qi army.
One does not go out of the city, the other does not go out of the barracks.
Looking at the city of Jiyang again, it is clean and clean, without any traces of battle.
At the moment, I was shocked and suspicious.
Could it be that something happened in the Qi Kingdom?
Or has Wei already rebelled?
After settling down the barracks, Tang Yu ordered: "Please ask the Jiyang City Lord and the Han Army Lord to see me in the future." ”
After the arrival of Cheng Lingjun and his uncle.
Tang Mo sneered and asked, "Cheng Lingjun, I don't know what is going on between you and Qi Jun?" ”
Uncle is also unkind.
Previously, the king of Wei complained to the Chu-Han coalition army, saying that Jiyang was under siege, but when he arrived in Jiyang, Wei and Qi did not fight at all.
If Cheng Lingjun hadn't come to the Chu camp in person, Tang Wu would have already planned to retreat.
Cheng Lingjun opened his mouth and explained: "The general doesn't need to be suspicious, the Qi army was originally going to attack the city, but because now it is only its Qi divisions that have arrived in Jiyang, and the main force of Qi has not yet arrived, and the strength is insufficient, so it has not yet begun to attack the city." ”
"The main force of Qi has not arrived?"
Tang Mo and Uncle looked at each other, both full of doubts, the Qi army has been in Jiyang for a few days, and the main force of the Qi army has not yet arrived?
Where is the main force of the Qi army?
Cheng Lingjun explained again: "The general doesn't know that the main force of the Qi army is in the boiled dates not far east of Jiyang. ”
