Chapter 416: Li Mu's Secret Letter
Li Mu thought in his heart: I thought that I would first break through Nanzheng City, and then force land in the eastern four cities of Hanzhong County. At the moment, it seems that it is time to change the plan according to the situation and the situation!
Then, Li Mu took the pen and paper, wrote a few words on a small square of Ming Xuan paper, and then folded the piece of paper and put it into a bag at hand.
"Good!"
Li Mu had already made up his mind in his chest, and immediately stood up, looked around at everyone, and shouted loudly: "Deng Zhi, Cheng Yi listen to the order!" ”
"The subordinates are here!"
Deng Zhi and Cheng Yi immediately got up, and Shi Li replied in unison.
"You two...... Immediately led 10,000 troops, rushed to the Meridian Valley first, and went to join forces with Dexin (Hu Du). After the two armies meet, no matter whether they can ambush Yang Bai's defeated army, they must march eastward...... Four cities in the east of Hanzhong County! ”
Li Mu first conveyed the military order, and then strode to Deng Zhi, and said in a solemn voice: "This bag can only be dismantled after the capture of Xicheng!" Be sure to follow the tips...... Act! This time to the east, Bo Miao served as the commander of the Eastern Route Army! ”
"Please rest assured!"
Deng Zhi and Cheng Yi immediately gave a salute, and said solemnly with a look of indignation: "We will definitely take down the four eastern cities, and we will definitely live up to the trust of the lord!" ”
Subsequently, Deng Zhi and Cheng Yi hurriedly stepped out of the tent, gathered soldiers, and rushed to the front line of the Meridian Valley to meet the Fox Du Army!
"Someone!"
"The subordinates are here!"
Li Mu looked at the herald in front of him, and ordered in a deep voice: "Immediately send an order to Huang Zhong of Nanyang County, and order him to enter Fangling, Shangyong, and Tin County of Hanzhong County from the front line of Wudang, Shandu, and Zhuyang in Nanyang County!" Don't let the troops of the four eastern cities escape from Hanzhong County! If there is a bad pool, come and see you! ”
The herald got the military order, hurriedly left the big tent of the Chinese army, and rushed to Wancheng, Nanyang County.
Everyone was surprised, Ma pondered for a while, and finally hesitated: "Why did the lord ...... Sudden change of tactical plans? ”
"Everyone, don't be impatient!"
Li Mu smiled and waved his hand, and said with an unfathomable expression: "When you take down the four cities in the eastern part of Hanzhong County, you will know!" ”
When the civil and military authorities saw that their lord said this, they didn't want to ask again!
……
As Ma Tan said, at the end of the day, the Liangzhou army Tan Ma brought a captain of the Hanzhong army to report that Yang Bai gave up Yangcheng and fled to Xicheng and Shangyong with his troops.
Li Mu no longer hesitated, and immediately rushed to Yangcheng with Ma, Wu Lan, Zhang Wei, Fu Yan, Zhao Feng, and Ma Tan, with 25,000 people under his command.
When the Liangzhou army came to Yangcheng, the north gate of Yangcheng was already wide open, the fire in the city was soaring, the fire was spreading, and the wails were endless! It's miserable!
When the Liangzhou army entered the city from the north gate, the people who were wailing everywhere were scurrying around in panic; And the stragglers of the Hanzhong army are taking the opportunity to plunder the people.
"Protect the people! Slaughter rebellion! ”
In just an instant, two cold lights burst out from Li Mugujing's waveless eyes. Li Mu raised the broken gun in his hand and shouted in a depressed voice.
As soon as Li Mu gave an order, the Liangzhou army, which had long been angry and unbearable, under the leadership of Ma, Wu Lan, Fu Yan and others, roared in unison like a fierce tiger in the mountains, killing the Hanzhong army.
More than two quarters of an hour later, the more than 2,000 Han Chinese troops who remained in Yangcheng were routed, and they had become headless ghosts; The fire in the city was also extinguished; The people of Yangcheng returned home in a state of panic.
After some understanding, it turned out that on the day that Yang Fu, Xu Zhen, and Zhao Ang died, Yang Bai saw that there were only 8,000 guards in Yangcheng, so he came up with the idea of escaping. As Ma Jian analyzed, Yang Bai didn't want to flee back to Nanzheng City, he wanted to flee back to Shangyong City and go to join the Shen brothers.
Yang Bai didn't want to flee like this, so he spent more than a day in the remaining days to loot and loot the people in Yangcheng City. Before Yang Bai escaped, he did not forget to leave behind the three thousand people.
Seeing that the lord was about to flee, the 3,000 Hanzhong soldiers who had no dragons also began to rob their homes. In the chaos of that night, a lieutenant with a good conscience took the opportunity to open the north gate of Yangcheng, hoping that the Liangzhou army would come as soon as possible.
On the second day, Li Mu made a list of the people, and announced Liangzhou's consistent policy of benefiting the people to the people of the city. The people of Yangcheng, who were suspicious, saw that the Liangzhou army had not committed any crime in their autumn, so they completely calmed down.
On the same day, Li Mu left Zhao Feng and 3,000 soldiers to garrison Yangcheng, and he joined Ma, Wu Lan, Ma Jian and others, with 22,000 soldiers, and entered the city to fortify the city.
When the Liangzhou army marched to the east gate of Chenggu City, the defenders of Chenggu City had already taken the soldiers and knelt on the ground, begging for mercy. It turned out that there were only 2,000 defenders in Chenggucheng, and after the defenders learned the news of the arrival of the Liangzhou army, they did not want to hit the stone with an egg, so they immediately chose to surrender.
Li Mu gave the guard a lot of grace and power, and then the soldiers entered the city. So far, the Left Route Army in the Three-Way Army has successfully completed the siege of Nanzheng City!
……
But he said that Yang Bai, who escaped from the foreign city, rushed all the way east to the west city. More than four quarters of an hour later, Yang Bai led his troops to Shiquan Valley, as long as he passed through this valley, he could reach Xicheng.
Hearing that the scout was coming, but did not see the Liangzhou army chasing after him, Yang Bai calmed down, and ordered the army to rest for a while before marching again.
Just when the soldiers of Hanzhong were panting like cattle and resting on the ground, the sky in the valley seemed to darken suddenly; Immediately after, a strange sound was heard in mid-air; Then, the heart-rending screams broke the moment of peace in the valley!
After several rounds of rain of arrows, Deng Zhi, Hu Du, and Cheng Yi, who had already ambushed their troops here, led their troops to kill the generals from the slopes on the left and right sides of Shiquan Valley and the valley mouth east of Shiquan Valley.
For the 15,000 elites of the Liangzhou Army, how could the 5,000 exhausted soldiers of the Han Chinese Army be their opponents. This one-sided raid ended in only two quarters of an hour.
In this battle, the Liangzhou army suffered more than 100 casualties; The enemy army was completely annihilated, and the fox duke beheaded Yang Bai; The amount of grain, grass, and money seized was innumerable.
More than an hour later, Deng Zhi and others used the armor of the Hanzhong Army to win Xicheng without bloodshed. Cheng Yi led his troops to guard here!
Three hours later, when Deng Zhi and Hu Du led their troops to Tin County, the two were pleasantly surprised to see that Lei Tong of the Tianfeng Legion had captured Tin County.
The three of them exchanged a few words, and Deng Zhi and Hu Du knew that the Tianfeng Army had captured Fangling, and Hao Zhao was leading his troops on the way to Shangyong. Deng Zhi and Hu Du still had important tasks in their bodies, so they immediately bid farewell to Lei Tong and led their troops to Shangyong City.
By the time Deng Zhi and Hu Du arrived with their troops, Hao Zhao had already captured Shangyong City, and was greeting Shen Tan and Shen Yi brothers.
Deng Zhi called Hao Zhao outside the tent and took out the secret letter of his father-in-law. There are only four words in the letter, exterminate the Shen family! Hao Zhao was shocked into a cold sweat, he almost ruined the lord's big thing.
Two quarters of an hour later, Shen Tan and Shen Yi died in a daze, and the three Shen clans were all wiped out!
At this point, the four cities in the eastern part of Hanzhong County have been pacified!
