Lanzhou, is the central city of the northwest region of the Han Empire, if from the northwest to the southeast of the Han Empire draw a line, and then from the northeast to the southwest to draw a line, Lanzhou is just on the center point of the intersection of these two lines, Lanzhou is surrounded by mountains in the north and south, the Yellow River in the east and west passes along the city, according to records, because the gold was dug up when the city was built here for the first time, so it was named Jincheng, there is also a saying that it is based on the allusion of "Jincheng soup pool", and then changed its name to Lanzhou, after Qin Shi Huang unified the country, the world is divided into 36 counties, and Lanzhou belongs to Longxi County, To the Han Dynasty began to set up a county, here the west leads to the Western Regions, the southwest leads to the Tibetan area, the north can cross the Yellow River and pass the desert north, if the flank of the Jin Empire, Lanzhou is an important stronghold, the most important thing, because the continuous victory and rapid progress of the Han army greatly exceeded the expectations of the Jin State, so the defenders of Lanzhou are not many, all the defenders are only 50,000 people.

In the case of the Jin Empire, they did not expect that Lanzhou would become the front line of the battle, after all, a few months ago the two sides were still fighting in Huainan, thousands of miles away, according to their ideas, the Han army was already very unexpected to reach Huainan, in such a short period of time, it was completely inconceivable to take Lanzhou directly, but the plan did not change quickly, when the strategists of the Jin Empire realized that Lanzhou would become a key point, Wei Qing had already arrived in Dingxi.

Now, Wan Yanyong is sitting in his own big tent in Lanzhou City.

He had a document on his desk, which contained nothing but a report that the 200,000 reinforcements would arrive a few days late because of some delays on the way.

Wan Yanyong sneered.

"There are some delays on the way", it is the eldest prince who "wants to have" some delays!

He knew what the eldest prince meant.

At the beginning, he and the eldest prince had differences on the issue of war against the Han Empire, and he advocated war, while the eldest prince believed that the Han Empire was not easy to conquer and could not go to war.

After that, it took only three years for the Jin army to fight from Mobei to Nanhe, which made the eldest prince feel very faceless------ according to his original statement, it was difficult to cross the Yellow River, but the actual result was to destroy the withered and decayed general to the Nanhe, in order to save face, the eldest prince advocated a war against Frans, and as a result, he and Wanyan Yong quarreled again.

Wan Yan Yong's proposition is that don't fantasize about eating the world in one bite, although the Jin country is strong, it can't start a war in both directions at the same time, but the eldest prince thinks that since the Han Empire is ready to go, even if it starts a war with Frans a little earlier, it's nothing big, not to mention that the Han Empire or Frans are all looking at the big shelves, but they are all fat, as long as they give a few heavy blows in a row, these two countries will fall.

If it is a sane person, at least he will understand that even if he starts a war with the Frans a few days later, there is no loss, rather than risk a war early, it is better to wait a little longer, and wait for the Jin army to fully occupy the Han Empire before considering a war with the Frans Empire, but the problem is that his father Wanyan Liang is not a sane person, he is a crazy person, he hopes to see the territory of the Jin Empire across Europe and Asia in his lifetime, so that he can become the greatest monarch in history, so he accepted the advice of the eldest prince and started a war with the Frans at the same time.

How it turned out, is already known.

In less than a year, half of the hard work of the Jin Empire was recaptured, and the battle against France was like a quagmire. Although they continued to win, the French army was like flies, driving away and then circling back, circling back and forth, driving away and then circling back to ,,,,,, lane, and the golden army was tired of coping.

As a result, the Liang Zi between the eldest prince and his Wanyan Yong was considered dead.

Wan Yanyong thought that the eldest prince was really overwhelmed, and made mistakes again and again on such a major issue, and he thought that he could go to war with the Han Empire, but he thought that he couldn't, and he couldn't go to war with the French Empire, but he thought he could; The eldest prince thinks that Wan Yanyong intends to seize his position as the prince, and he does everything against him, and his lucky success should be used as a success to step on him.

And now, the commander of this 200,000-strong army is the eldest prince Wanyan Yungong.

So, what if the 200,000 army could arrive on time?

Wan Yan Yong could even guess when the eldest prince's army would arrive.

His troops will arrive on the day the Han army captures Lanzhou, once the Han army captures Lanzhou, he has only two ways to go, one is to die in battle, the other is to escape, and the second road is also a dead end, because once he escapes, he lost Huainan before, and now he loses Lanzhou, and the two crimes will be punished together, and his father Wanyan Liang will not pity him, but will only execute him.

At this time, he led the army to recapture Lanzhou in one fell swoop, defeated the Han army, and was able to fight when the Han army was most tired, and he could kill him Wan Yan Yong with the help of the Han army, which can be described as a good plan to kill two birds with one stone.

Wan Yan Yong has to admire the eldest prince, Wan Yan Yungong, you are really ruthless enough.

He picked up the pen and brushed a little bit, and wrote a short message, which was written directly to his father Wan Yanliang, the content was very concise: Father, son Yong guards Lanzhou, reinforcements have not arrived for a long time, there is no food in the son, there is no aid outside, only to defend to the death, if the child dies in battle, please do not be sad for the father, and the son Yong will bow again.

"Send this letter as an urgent mail!" Wan Yan Yong ordered.

The express mail is delivered by the condor Hai Dongqing, this letter is sent from now, five days later Hai Dongqing will fly to the Mobei royal court, he knows that the letter was sent too early, but what he wants is this time, he calculated, the Han army will defeat Dingxi, it will not be possible in half a month, and this letter will take five days, and then it will take five days for Hai Dongqing to send it back to Wanyan Yungong, that is to say, when the Han army is about to conquer Dingxi, the father's sternly worded order will arrive at Wanyan Yungong's desk, and then, the eldest prince will have to speed up the march, five days, It was enough for him to reach Lanzhou, so that the eldest prince's strategy of killing him by the hands of the Han army could not be implemented, but instead ended up with a reputation for ineffective management of the army and delaying the military aircraft.

As soon as the curtain was lifted, the elder Lemi walked in: "Lord Wang, there is an urgent letter from the Dingxi Army!" ”

Wan Yanyong took the scroll of paper from Lemi's hand and unfolded it.

This paper scroll is written by Zha Muhe himself, the report said that the Han army pretended to bypass Dingxi, bluffed to hit Lanzhou, in fact, lured him out of the city, he saw through the strategy, has collected troops back to the city, strictly guarded, will definitely stop the Han army in Dingxi Yunyun, the end of the letter is a suggestion: it is recommended that the prince send troops from Lanzhou, a night of rapid march to Dingxi City, and Dingxi defenders should be combined with the outside, inside and outside the attack, defeat the Han army in one fell swoop.

Wan Yanyong put down the letter and sat there in a daze.

Zamuhe's plan is indeed a good plan, the Han army pretended to bypass Dingxi to lure Zamuhe to attack, Zamuhe's meaning is to plan the plan, Hedingxi and Lanzhou defenders besieged the Han army, Zamuhe has 80,000 troops, Lanzhou also has 50,000 people, if the city comes out, the number is more than the Han army, and the front and rear flank, in the battlefield situation is also dominant, so the possibility of victory is still relatively large.

However, there is a variable here: if the battle fails, Dingxi and Lanzhou will be empty cities, and the Han army can easily occupy these two places.

The problem now is: if you take a risk, it is possible to win, but once you lose, the consequences are very serious, if you don't take a risk, Dingxi Ji may be lost, but as long as the eldest prince's reinforcements arrive in time, there is no problem in holding Lanzhou.

The former method is risky, and once it succeeds, the honor will be great, and the latter method is less risky, but there will be no honor at all.

Wan Yanyong thought for a long time and suddenly smiled.

He thought of a way to get the best of both worlds, which was actually copied from the eldest prince, and he wanted to let Zhamhe defend until he and the Han army were exhausted, and then he would attack from Lanzhou. Although there are now 100,000 Han troops, when the Han army conquers Dingxi, it is very good to have 50,000 people left, at that time he suddenly attacked, even if he did not win, he should probably retreat and retreat to Lanzhou again, even if he could not retreat for a while, the reinforcements of the eldest prince also arrived, no matter what, he would not lose Lanzhou.

In the letter, he said that he was rectifying the city defenses of Lanzhou, and once the city defenses were strong, he would send troops to help.

Wan Yan Yong believed that Zamuhe would only smile bitterly when he received this letter, because the reason why Zamuhe put forward the idea of a flank attack was that he didn't want him to die in Dingxi, but unfortunately, Wan Yanyong didn't care if Zamuhe would die in Dingxi, he only cared if he would die in Lanzhou.

"Lord Wang!" Zhelemi couldn't help but cry out: "Shall we mobilize the whole army to go to the city!" ”

Wan Yanyong smiled: "I don't need it now, I will need it in half a month, the Han army didn't arrive in Lanzhou so quickly!" ”

Zhelemi turned around and went out, since the prince said so, of course he didn't have to worry about anything? He is the commander of ten thousand people, a small chess piece under the prince, and the task of the chess piece is to stay honestly where it is, and it is the hand that commands the chess, not the chess commander.

At this time, the Han army has arrived in Yuzhong County, only sixty miles away from Lanzhou, although Yuzhong is a county, but there is almost no city defense, whether it is the Jin army or the Han army, has never been fortified here, so it is fortunate that it has not been looted by the war.

It was past noon, and Wei Qing ordered the whole army to rest here for a while, according to his plan, the Han army should arrive in Lanzhou around the evening, this time, it must be dark to act.

After eating in a hurry, Wei Qing wanted to go to the county town on a whim, and as soon as he went out, he saw Mulan.

"General Hua, where are you going!" Wei Qing asked.

Hua Mulan smiled: "I'll go to the county town to have a look and find someone!" ”

"You have acquaintances here!" Wei Qing asked.

Hua Mulan chuckled: "General Wei, don't you really know? Gu Xiucai lives here! ”
