Chapter 203: Qingshui County

Li Xin actually only stayed for half a day in the place of Yiguan, and then quietly rushed back to Guanzhong. However, Liu Xiaohai publicized to the outside world that he was still in Yiguan, and Li Xin left a personal soldier to pretend to be himself, and Liu Xiaohai accompanied him to inspect back and forth between Yuan County and Yiguan every day.

In this way, let alone outsiders, except for a few people, even the soldiers of the Huashan Army themselves thought that Li Xin had been staying in the land east of the river.

Li Xin hurried to the land of Qinzhou to preside over the war to destroy Qin.

In this battle, he mobilized Zhou Tong and Li Erhei, two generals, and of course he had to go. After all, this matter is too important for Huashan Jun.

Therefore, after quietly returning from Hedong, he just sent someone to secretly inform Wang Meng! And he didn't stop at all, and after joining the 5,000 troops who had arrived in advance in Chencang County, he went straight to the Great Earthquake Pass.

In the Great Earthquake Pass, the number of guards had quietly increased to 1,000, and the captain guarding the pass personally welcomed Li Xin in.

"Zhou Tong's people, have you already passed?" After rushing for days, Li Xin decided to rest for a night at the Great Earthquake Pass, after all, the next thing may be a big battle for several days. After sitting down, he asked the lieutenant.

"Returning to the general, General Zhou took his men and horses from the Weishui Ancient Road to Qinzhou, and sent someone to inform the last general two days ago. According to their estimates, it should arrive outside Tianshui County in a few days! ”

"That's good, how about the north side?" According to the previous arrangement, the news of their actions will be sent to the Great Earthquake Pass so that Li Xin can know about it.

"General Li had quietly arrived in Longguan a day earlier, and no one knew about it. According to the military order, General Hu has already begun to prepare! ”

"That's good! The order went down, the whole army rested, cooked at dawn, and after the army was full of food and drink, they immediately set off and sent the troops to Luoyang County! Nodding, Li Xin ordered.

The 6,000-strong army was crowded into the small Great Earthquake Pass, and after a long time, it would inevitably be noticed by the enemy. However, if you only stay for one night, it is not a big problem.

In this operation, Li Xin himself led an army of 5,000 from the northwest of Dazhen Pass to Luoyang County. Zhou Tong led 2,000 soldiers and horses to Shangqi and other counties in Tianshui along the Weishui Ancient Road.

According to the previous calculation, the two teams should meet near Shangtai County in Tianshui County, and then fight all the way to the west.

At the same time, Li Erhei will also lead 5,000 men and horses to march west from the direction of Longguan and take all the northern counties of Luoyang County and Tianshui County.

General Hu Tian led 3,000 men and horses from Longguan to the north, and took Shimen, Wating, Liupanguan and the three counties of Wushi, Chaona and Dulu in Anding County, that is, the area around Guyuan City in Ningxia to Longde County in later generations.

After that, Li Erhei and Hu Tian's army will gather together, mainly to deal with the soldiers and horses north and northwest of Longguan in Fuqin.

In this way, the four-way people who act from the beginning will become two people when they hit the middle. Led by Li Xin and Li Erhei respectively, they slowly attacked the north and south of Xiangwu County, the new capital of Fu Qin in Longxi County, and fought a decisive battle with the main force of Fu Qin!

In this way, there will be an army of 15,000 gathered together in the end, which is enough to wipe out Fu Qin with one blow. And once the Huashan Army moves, it is impossible for Qiu Chi and Liangzhou to be without movement, and when the time comes, Fu Qin will be attacked on three sides, unless they choose to flee directly! Otherwise, it is impossible to turn over again.

For this action plan, Li Xin and Zhou Tong have already deduced it in detail over and over again. At this point, all that remains is the question of actual implementation.

After a night of silence, the army rested for a night in the Great Earthquake Pass, and when the sky was still slightly bright, they set off directly.

Among the four armies, the Weishui Ancient Road taken by Zhou Tong is the most difficult place, so it takes a lot of time. And Li Xin's road to the Great Earthquake Pass is relatively much easier, although it is not as easy as the Longguan official road that Li Erhei and they walked.

If he got out of the Great Earthquake Pass, Li Xin entered the territory of Luoyang County, and the first county seat facing the Great Earthquake Pass was Qingshui County. The place where the county is governed is more than ten miles northwest of Qingshui County in later generations.

Since this place is less than a hundred miles away from the Great Earthquake Pass, Fu Qin attaches great importance to this place! Outside the county seat, on the plain more than ten miles near the foot of Guanshan, a defensive line was established, specifically to prevent the Huashan army from the earthquake.

According to the information he had obtained before, Fu Qin placed 6,000 soldiers and horses in this place, and placed them in the northeast and southwest directions around Qin Ting. In this way, it is equivalent to blocking the road to the west of the Great Earthquake.

If Li Xin wants to fight over, he must first destroy these 6,000 soldiers and horses.

Since they are all mountain and forest trails, this road is not very easy to walk. The distance was less than 100 miles, and it was not until the evening that Li Xin finally arrived with a large army.

"General, the sentry posts arranged by the enemy in the mountains and forests have all been cleared!" When he was still more than ten miles away from the enemy army, Li Xin stopped, waiting for the scout's return.

"What happened to the enemy forces down the mountain? Have you ever found out where we are? Li Xin stood on the top of the hill and could see the light of the fire in the enemy camp below.

"We didn't notice it yet, we started quickly, and the sentry didn't have time to give a signal. Moreover, our internal response to the enemy army did not remind us of this! ”

"Okay, tell the brothers below, cheer me up, and I'll go out later!" Li Xin nodded and said.

Although it was a day's journey, it was nothing to these long-trained Huashan troops. In addition, under the atmosphere of the war, the urgency of making contributions has swept away this fatigue.

After receiving the order, everyone immediately prepared silently, polished the weapons in their hands, and tied a white scarf on their right arm to distinguish between friend and foe!

"Action!" After more than ten minutes, Li Xin quietly ordered, and the army dispersed and quietly touched the enemy camp at the bottom of the mountain.

There are four counties in Luoyang County, among them, the place of county governance is in Linwei County, which is about 50 miles northeast of Linwei County, which is Qingshui County. And more than 40 miles northwest of Qingshui County, is the county seat of Luoyang. The remaining Pingxiang County, which was later known as Tongwei County, was in the northwest of these three counties, far away from the three counties, at least one hundred and twenty miles.

The three counties of Lüyang, Qingshui and Linwei are as if they were an obtuse triangle, and Qingshui County is in an obtuse position, facing the Great Earthquake Pass.

It is precisely because of this unique geographical location that once the Huashan Army takes Qingshui County, it can go to Luoyang and Pingxiang County in the north, and Linwei County in the south.

Moreover, more than 20 miles southwest of Linwei County, is the county seat of Tianshui County. After defeating Linwei County, it is easy to hit Shangtai County.

In this way, this Qingshui County has to be protected for Fu Qin. It is precisely because of its importance that Fu Qin sent Fu Shuang to lead the defense of these 6,000 men and horses.

This Fu Shuang is Fu Jian's younger brother, and together with his subordinate general Gou Xing, he is responsible for the defense of the east of Qingshui County.

That evening, it was peaceful and the night was nice. Since there has been no movement in the Huashan Army for most of the year, Fu Shuang has gradually relaxed. Basically, everything in the barracks was handled by his subordinates, so he sat in the military tent and chatted with the generals.

"Alas, we are here every day, when will it be the end! If you want me to say, you should wave your army into Guanzhong, completely wipe out the Huashan army, and recapture Guanzhong! Inside the military tent, Fu Shuang sighed.

The loss of Guanzhong is simply a great shame for Fu Qin, especially for the Fu Qin clan. Not to mention the young Zhuang faction like Fu Shuang, who thinks every day that he can fight back and return to the prosperous Chang'an City. Instead of shrinking in the remote land of Qinzhou like now.

"That's what the general said! We now have tens of thousands of troops, are we still afraid that his Huashan army will not succeed? It's a pity that the adults in the DPRK and China just want to defend this remote place, and they don't dare to look east! "The general Gou Xing has won the trust of Fu Shuang, so he doesn't have many scruples when he speaks.

Hugh said that the ministers of the imperial court, even the king of Guangping and General Wei, had no intention of recapturing Guanzhong. You see, a few days ago, he sent another official letter, telling me to be careful of the enemy in the direction of the Great Earthquake Pass. Now that Li Xin has gone to Hedong, although the small and big earthquake pass is dangerous, the defenders are still not more than a thousand, where can we have the ability to hit us! Hearing this, Fu Shuang only felt very agreed, pointed to the official document on the table, and said.

Fu Huangmei took Fu Sheng back to Shangtai County to ascend the throne, and the two have always had a good relationship. Therefore, after Fu Sheng became the emperor, he handed over the defense line south of Longguan to Tianshui.

The 6,000 soldiers and horses under the command of Fu Shuang will be controlled by him. Because of the defense line, Longguan is located on the official road, and the army can easily enter and exit. Therefore, Fu Huangmei himself led an army of 8,000 troops stationed in Luoyang County, making every effort to guard against the Huashan Army in the direction of Longguan.

Together, these two places make 14,000 people. Counting some of the guards left in the county, the soldiers and horses under Fu Huangmei have reached more than 16,000 people. He accounted for half of the entire eastern defense line.

To the north of Longguan, the remaining 15,000 troops are led by Fu Sheng's younger brother Fu Liu, and now Shimen, Wating, Liupanguan and other passes and county seats are in his hands!

"King Guangping and they have been defeated by the Huashan army many times before, and it is not surprising that they have some fear in their hearts. It's a pity that these tens of thousands of troops can only stay here and eat nothing, and can't recover the lost land and expand the territory, which is really a pity! Gou Xing echoed.

"Who said no, I would like the Huashan Army to come over, and I have never fought with it before! If they do come here, General Ben will definitely teach them a good lesson and let them know that we are powerful! "Fu Shuang has been stationed in Longdong before, so he has never fought with the Huashan Army, and he has always been a little dissatisfied with the prestige of the Huashan Army. 21
