Chapter 505 Xiangyang Lonely City
The next day, the former Qin army was still attacking the city, but the attack strength was obviously insufficient, Xiao Han saw it and smiled: "Does this Fu Jian want to spend it with us? But, we can afford it, he has 800,000 yuan, how can he afford it?" Could it be that there is any mystery in it?"
"Is this a matter of uneasiness? He can't bargain with us, he must want to divide the army, bypass Xiangyang, attack Nanyang and other cities, and then surround us! It's a pity that our troops are insufficient, even if the eldest brother and Brother Yu and their men and horses come, it will not matter! It seems that we can only defend the city alone! Let's try to consume the military strength of Qianqin here and buy time for the final decisive battle of our army, right, Your Royal Highness Princess!" Pei Yingxue smiled and suggested to them.
Princess Taiping pondered for a moment before she smiled: "Haha, my Xue'er girl's analysis is roughly not bad! Well, we have to act according to the plan! Okay, General Zhu, it's up to you next, you have the final say on when this Xiangyang will be guarded! We have to go to meet with General Xiao and General Xie, and we can't wipe out the 800,000 former Qin army with a few thousand of us! The general must act according to the plan, how about it?"
"Your Royal Highness the princess, don't worry, I know it in my heart, but will the court blame me?" Zhu Xu was still a little uneasy!
Princess Taiping smiled: "You surrendered according to our plan! Remember, the key factor must be played at the critical moment, let's not entangle with the enemy here! Bagong Mountain is our decisive battle, let's play with Fu Jian slowly! If we have time, we will accompany you to defend Xiangyang, and we will fight a defensive battle for at least a year!"
"No, I understand, Her Royal Highness the princess can rest assured, the general can rest assured, Weichen knows!" Zhu Xu's mood was a little melancholy.
Xiao Han smiled: "We have to go to the cities to inspect, the general must be careful! This Fu Jian obviously wants to drag us in the city, he wants to attack my Jingzhou directly, we can't do what he wants! Okay, let's take our leave first, the general rest assured, the final victory will definitely belong to us, haha!" he smiled confidently.
Then, they left Xiangyang!
Looking at their distant figures, Zhu Xu suddenly had the feeling that a soldier had died as a confidant: This General Xie is really a magical soldier, and it is really good to be able to fight for him! Princess Qingning is not simple, as a princess, she actually serves on the battlefield like this, and she is the first soldier, which is too powerful! Even so, even if you die for them, it is worth it!
Therefore, he quietly commanded the soldiers to strengthen the defense of Xiangyang!
Xiao Han and Princess Taiping returned to Bagong Mountain, and Liu Gao and others hurriedly greeted them and smiled: "The general came back just in time, and General Xiao led 5,000 cavalry to come, when will we attack?"
"Attack?Do you think that our more than 5,000 people can defeat the 800,000 former Qin army? At present, we only have one word: Wait!" Xiao Han said thoughtfully.
"Ah!" When Liu Gao heard this, he felt a little discouraged: "In this way, we don't want Nanyang, Xiangyang and other cities?
"Boy, don't play a tantrum with this princess! Haha, when we General Xie fight, you are just a little doll! If you want to be brave, you can, you can go to Xiangyang to defend the city, our hundred soldiers are the backbone of our extermination of the former Qin army! You have to be useless, we will never stop you, dare to talk nonsense, don't listen to the greeting, cut off your head! Drag it down, and hit twenty military sticks!" When Princess Taiping heard this, she was not happy.
Subsequently, the two soldiers drove Liu Prison and ordered the law enforcement soldiers to beat him with twenty sticks!
When Liu Gao came back, he didn't dare to speak anymore!
Xiao Han smiled: "What we want is the overall victory, not the courage of the horseman! Xiangyang, we have to help General Zhu defend at any time, but you can't go, okay, put the military horses in order, we are ready to cut off the enemy's grain at any time, so that we can fight a protracted war!"
At this time, Xiao Yu came and smiled: "You are comfortable, you have fought a few battles in Xiangyang, and we are still watching the scenery behind here! General Xie Shi has led 50,000 troops to camp in Jingzhou behind us, should we plan the development trend of the war with him?"
"Yes, okay, let's go back to Jingzhou! Liu Gao, these 5,000 troops are led by you, and the 100 cavalry, we will personally lead them, and we will hold on to the former Qin people in the mountains in various places! The city is not the most important, the key is Bagong Mountain, that is, Liu Gao, it must be defended by me, otherwise, there will be no forgiveness for killing!" Xiao Han ordered.
Then Liu Gao was immediately convinced: "I thought the general wouldn't reuse me, haha, thank you general, it's just, what about our grain and grass?"
"Haha, now you know that you are scared?boy, wait, we will cut off the enemy's food route, and then you only need to send a sergeant to carry it yourself!" Princess Taiping smiled proudly.
Then Liu Gao came to his senses and carried out the order with a smile!
When Xiao Yu, Xiao Han and Princess Taiping returned to Jingzhou, they saw that Xie An, Wang Xizhi, and Xie Shi had all come to Jingzhou, and they were waiting for their news.
At first sight, Xie An was a little breathless, but he also smiled and asked, "Can this battle be fought? I heard that Fu Jian has personally led his troops to fight, have you seen him in person?
"Uncle rest assured, Fu Jian, a hero, ambitious and talented, but sometimes he is also good at employing people, his heart is tenacious, and the heart of destroying my Jin Dynasty is as iron as a rock! Fu Rong, he is a little afraid of us, haha, he is a little afraid of my Xue'er and Wan'er! The biggest gain of our trip to Chang'an is to know that they are not united internally, for example, my other old Taishan Murong Chui wants to get rid of Fu Jian and establish a country, so we will win this battle!" Xiao Han smiled, looking determined to win.
Xie An calmed down and smiled: "Very good, then do it! I made a comeback this time, and it all relied on this former Qin people to attack, and Your Majesty remembered me, an old man, haha, you have to fight hard! In this way, my face as a prime minister has a bright face!"
"Your Excellency Prime Minister is modest, you were originally the mainstay of my Jin Kingdom, haha, Your Majesty will never forget you!" Wang Xizhi hurriedly comforted him.
The two cherish each other, and all along, one article and one martial arts are the Optimus Prime of the Jin Dynasty!
It was at this time that the herald came, and as soon as he came in, he shouted: "The big thing is not good, the former Qin people have captured our Nanyang, and Xuzhou, Huaiyin, and Xuyi are also in a hurry!"
"Ahh
"What are you yelling for? The Prime Minister is deliberating, what are you calling here? Drag it out and beat twenty military sticks!" Princess Taiping was not happy when she heard this, and immediately gave an order.
Naturally, the pro-soldier dragged the soldier out!
Xie An was a little uneasy, thought about it, and then smiled: "If these three cities are occupied by the former Qin, we are afraid that it will be difficult, it seems that we can't keep Xiangyang, so, what can we do about it?"
"Uncle, don't worry, we have a full plan!" After speaking, Xiao Han hurriedly whispered in his ear.
"Ahh
"Uncle, don't worry, we will give the Qianqin people a thousand miles to ambush, our main war is in the area of Bagong Mountain in Shou County! Of course, tomorrow Her Royal Highness and I will lead a hundred horsemen to cut off the enemy's grain route! After a few battles, the sharp spirit of Qianqin will be dispersed!" Xiao Han smiled confidently.
Wang Xizhi completely agreed: "Well, Xiao Xie has always been bold in using soldiers, and he likes to take risks, I think it is feasible, then, just do it, I am in charge of grain and grass! I am only in charge of General Xie Shi, and General Xiao's 5,000 cavalry will be solved by Xiao Xie! It's just that General Xiao still has to lead more than 20,000 people in my right army, and I will also be in charge of grain and grass! Haha, Xiao Xie, it's all up to you this time!"
"Haha, uncle, don't worry, we will fight with all our might! Okay, the wine and food are here, let's eat, drink and have fun! In three days, we will go to the front line, I will personally lead the 5,000 people, and when the 50,000 people of the eldest brother and General Xiao come, we will fight a decisive battle against the Qianqin people! At present, we only have 5,000 soldiers and horses that can move, and we can't fight against Fu Resolute! We can only consume him!" Xiao Han said helplessly.
Xie An thought about it, completely agreed, and smiled: "You kid can't be too careless, the safety of Her Royal Highness the princess is more important!"
"Got it, our Royal Highness the princess already has four bodyguards, haha! By the way, Xia'er, come and meet the two uncles!Haha, she is Murong Chui's daughter, Murong Xia!" Xiao Han smiled proudly.
When Wang Xizhi saw it, he was very happy: "You kid is a womanizer, haha! You protect Her Royal Highness the princess!"
Xie An looked at Xiao Han for a while, and smiled happily, but he didn't speak: This kid is so virtuous, what can I do?
After thinking about it, Xie An smiled: "It's a pity that Xiangyang has become an isolated city, so will it fall soon? If Xiangyang is lost, can we take the initiative to attack?"
"Haha, Prime Minister, don't worry, Fu Jian wants to gnaw on the hard bone of Xiangyang, and it's strange if he doesn't knock out a few front teeth! We can also go to assist Xiangyang in defense at any time! Brother Yu, this matter is yours, bring our Sister Yue, Sister Yao'er, Sister Meng, Sister Yulan, cook for you! We, routinely, hit the transportation line of the talisman, so, in two years, we can consume most of that kid's military resources, hehe!" Princess Taiping smiled.
Lin Xuemei and the others had already prepared the wine and food, and when they heard this, they were very happy and smiled: "Okay, happy, then, let's go and cut off Fu Jian's transportation line!" See how many days he can support!"
"Impossible, haha, Sister Mei'er, our number is limited, this is in the Central Plains, no more than the grassland, Fu Jian is not stupid, we just need to strike at any time! Okay, the two uncles, the eldest brother, Brother Yu, and our beauties, drink together, I wish me a victory in the Jin national flag and defeat the former Qin people, haha!"
It's like eating meat in a war, and a pair of eyes are already shining!
"!" everyone laughed happily.
Zhu Xu of Xiangyang began a long offensive and defensive battle, fortunately, Xiao Yu sent 2,000 soldiers and horses to enrich the defense of the east and north gates, and because the enemy was not yet familiar with the waterway, he could barely cope!
But after a few days, the person had already lost a lot of weight, and when he was feeling exhausted, suddenly, Xiao Yu and others had led 3,000 soldiers and horses to help.
He hurriedly opened the city gate, welcomed Xiao Yu into Xiangyang, and smiled: "Why did General Xiao personally come to defend the city? Didn't you say that General Xie was going to come back to defend the city?"
"Haha, General Zhu, our General Xie and Princess Qingning have already led a hundred cavalry to cut off the enemy's grain route! So, we can't come, Her Royal Highness the Princess has ordered us to guard Xiangyang! Why, General Zhu doesn't welcome us?" Xiao Yu smiled.
Zhu Xu was stunned, he didn't expect this Lord Zuo Jun to be so approachable, and smiled: "Where, where, the last general can't ask for it, haha, with the help of the general, we will definitely be able to hold Xiangyang!"
"Xiangyang's defense, let's do our best, but the longer it drags on, the better!Haha, when our army is assembled, we will fight a decisive battle!" Xiao Yu smiled confidently.
