Chapter 0423: Go West to Jiannan
Southern Jin Dynasty.
The Southern Jin Dynasty emphasized civility and light military force, and when the country was in trouble, the civil officials played an incomparably powerful role in inspiring people, and the ability to create public opinion was terrifying, mobilizing the people of the whole country to join the army enthusiastically, and for a time, the people of Jiangnan enthusiastically joined the army, and the tents were set up inside and outside Jinling City.
However, due to too many people, the logistics supply was not enough, and the prices in Jinling City soared, and the people could not even afford to buy vegetables.
There were more and more soldiers in Jinling, and there were already so many that Sima Cheng was distressed.
"That's too much, isn't it? No, if it continues like this, Jinling City will collapse. Notify the surrounding states and counties as soon as possible, and use military forces to transport supplies and fill the vacancies in the capital. Sima Zhen rubbed his forehead and said, "Also, for the time being, I won't recruit soldiers, and now these people are almost enough." ”
Yan Songling, the first assistant minister of the cabinet, said: "Your Majesty, there is actually a good plan available at this time, once it is realized, it will get twice the result with half the effort." ”
"That's not going to be fast."
"The minister thought, if he sent someone to the Liao State at this time to persuade the Empress Dowager Xiao to send troops to attack the Liang Dynasty, wouldn't it be possible to completely eliminate Luoyang?"
"Well..., no. Bringing the Liao State here, even more so the Northern Liang, is even more detrimental to our Southern Jin Dynasty. You're a bad idea. ”
"Not really. The emperor pondered, although Luoyang is gone, but Zhao Ce is still in the land of Shu Han, he replaced Liu Xun and occupied Sichuan and Shu, and at that time, the situation of the separation of the three kingdoms was formed, wouldn't it be wonderful? ”
"Woohoo. I really didn't expect this. ”
Xin Wuxian, the deputy auxiliary minister of the cabinet, said: "After the elimination of Luoyang, the Liao and Jin families will divide the Central Plains equally, and we can also strengthen the national strength." Give Hebei to Liao, Shandong, Henan, Huainan, and Jingzhou all belong to us. As for Chang'an and Longyou, that's all a later story, and it's not too late to talk about it then. And the Western Regions are far away, and there is no oil and water, so don't do it. ”

"Hahahahaha! Tang Yuan, I look at it, you can't do it either. The chicks are squatting and tired to the point of throat? What's wrong with you? Can't straighten your waist? ”
The old general Wang Caotian rushed over from afar and scattered the enemy troops besieging Tang Yuan, Tang Yuan was injured in many places at this time, holding his waist and not straightening immediately, looking quite embarrassed. Decadent and sluggish, how can he have the appearance of a handsome, was seen by the old general, and laughed at it for a while.
Seeing that it was the old general Wang, Tang Yuan naturally couldn't contradict it, but just teased: "The younger generation's ability is limited, and the old general is still a friend in times of crisis." But the enemy army is still ahead, if you can catch the enemy general Yue Ting, it will be considered a real skill. Otherwise, let's compare and see who can capture Yue Ting alive, in addition, Shi Xiaohe is still in Yue Ting's hands at this time, after arresting Yue Ting, don't be in a hurry to execute. Exchanging him for hostages is the best policy. ”
"Where is Wang Tianpeng now?"
"Brother Wang was defeated and didn't know where to go."
"Hmph, shit." The old general was actually quite worried about his son, but when he heard that he was defeated, he felt that his face was gloomy, so he scolded a few words angrily.
At this time, Tang Yuan didn't dare to tell the old general, I didn't go to support your son.
If this is said, the old general must not be angry?
At that time, the situation was complicated, and if you went to support it, you would definitely fall into the trap of the enemy. I can only tell the old general about this matter slowly in the future, I hope that Wang Tianpeng is still alive now, as long as he is not dead, everything is easy to say.
——
Seeing that the gates of Otani Pass were wide open, several troops poured out, and 100,000 people rushed out, and it took time.
Yue Ting stood on a high platform, looking at the movement of the Liang army, he could not be sure how many reinforcements the Liang army had, so he decided to withdraw the troops of Mingjin.
The enemy's foothold is not stable, and this is the best time to withdraw troops. 5200
In this way, the exhausted Tang Yuan could no longer catch up, and the troops who had just left the city would not rush into the army.
Yue Ting retreated thirty miles and set up camp. Counting the number of people, there are still 190,000 people left.
Tang Yuan's Flying Tiger Army was basically gone, and the baggage was also gone. Min Yue blamed Tang Yuan, he was still too frizzy in the war, fighting on the plains, how could he still leave the baggage? Well, now the commander doesn't have a place to rest, and he rests in the open air like a soldier, if it catches up with a heavy rain, he will pour you into a soup chicken.
Fortunately, it is relatively close to Dagu Pass, and it is easy to transport supplies from Luoyang, and after a few days of exposure to the sun, tents have been transported one after another.
And in the past few days, Yue Ting has also stopped, and it seems that the Jin army is also very tired.
Tang Hu's injuries were not completely healed, but he was able to stand up, and he could still wander around, shouting for Xiaobing to find him a beautiful woman to accompany him. The little soldier was embarrassed and said, there are no people in a radius of 100 miles, where can I find a beautiful woman for you?
Tang Hu was furious and whipped the little soldier.
——
Zhao Ce had already heard about the situation in Luoyang, but he received a letter from Tang Qi warning him that he would never come back. If you give up attacking Shu Han this time, you may never have a chance again in the future.
At this time, the Central Plains region has been depopulated, and it will be difficult to restore national strength for 20 years. Now, only by taking Shu Han and entering Chengdu, the country of abundance is rich, and the treasury is replenished, can we turn the tide.
Zhao Ce humorously praised: "There is a fierce woman in the family, and the husband is blessed!" ”
In Tang Qi's letter, there was even a handwritten letter from the Empress Dowager Cao, of course, her letter must have been read by Tang Qi first. Zhao Ce looked at it, and between the lines there were some encouraging words.
After reading it, Zhao Ce couldn't help but feel sour at the tip of his nose and slightly red in his eyes.
Write back to Tang Qi and let her treat her mother well.
The pioneer general Lin Chongyang has conquered Luzhou, an important town in Sichuan, and although he has paid a heavy price, Shu Han has no strength to resist at this time.
The vanguard commander drove straight into Langzhong.
Zhao Ce led the Chinese army, followed non-stop, and sighed all the way, Mr. Lin's speed was too fast, I was so tired just walking, but he was walking and fighting at the same time, how did he do it?
After He Xiaorong, Guan Xiong, Guan Jia's Thirteen Taibao, and Chen Duoyang were killed or captured in battle, the disadvantage of no general in Shu became more and more obvious. On the other hand, Liang Jun is full of famous generals.
It is said that at this time in Chengdu Mansion, Prime Minister Bai Chongguang was recruiting troops and horses, preparing to resist stubbornly and fight the trapped beasts. But even so, at this time, there were already many surrender documents sent to Zhao Ce's desk in the Shu court, and they had already surrendered, just waiting to welcome the Emperor of Great Liang into Chengdu.
The scout said: "On the sage, the great general Lin Chongyang asked to modify the route of the march, give up attacking Xishui, and instead go north to Cangxi, and then continue to attack Jiameng Pass and enter Jianzhou. ”
"Accurate!" Zhao Ce said: "General Lin needs help?" ”
The scout said: "General Lin's subordinates have been seriously reduced, and I hope to increase the troops." ”
"Exactly." Zhao Ce said again: "What else? ”
The scout said: "General Lin has a lot of wounded men, I am afraid that I have to stay in the local area, and I hope that the emperor will send someone to take care of it." ”
"Okay, you go back and tell Lin Chongyang that he doesn't have to worry about these things, just go all the way to the west. I will support it with all my might. ”
