Chapter 527: Overwhelming

Li Xin and Murong Ping confronted each other at the mouth of the flying fox, and after seeing that the Tang army did not attack, Murong Ping was finally a little relieved, and planned to defend here and wait for instructions from Yecheng's side. Seeing Li Xin outside the city standing still, Murong Ping was a little proud, thinking that Li Xin had no way to take him, so he could only stay outside the pass.

In fact, Li Xinke did not sit still. At this time, in addition to leaving some men and horses to stick to the north of this pass, he had already led the remaining 10,000 troops to turn around and return to Dai County.

The soldiers and civilians of Daixian County, who were already a little panicked, saw Li Xin's army going and returning at this time, and they didn't dare to go out of the city to fight. And just under the city, Li Xin once again convened a group of generals to discuss and began to carry out the next big plan.

"At this point in the plan, we have achieved nearly half of our goals. Next, we need you to make persistent efforts, without any negligence, and strive to achieve this goal in its entirety! Li Xin, who was sitting at the top, slowly swept his eyes over the generals below and said slowly.

"Your Highness, please!" The generals are high-spirited.

Since Li Xin became king, this was the first major war, and since the beginning of the war, it has won successive battles, destroying tens of thousands of armies, which is really a great victory. Yes, Tang Jun's prestige has been established since then, and it can be regarded as a complete reputation.

Similarly, this also allowed the generals to see the strength of Datang and see this upward momentum. The trend of development is improving, and the future prospects are clearly visible, so naturally everyone is willing to follow Li Xin.

"Daijun is located in an important place, bordering the northern desert grassland in the north and all parts of the Central Plains in the south. Therefore, even if there is a great difficulty, this time it is necessary to take down the cluster! The old counties in the north are not for the time being, and now only Dangcheng County and Dai County, as well as Pingshu City in the west, are still resisting. In addition, Guangchang County south of Flying Fox is still in Zheng Liaochuan, which is controlled by the enemy, when the city and county are handed over to you to attack, I will give you two times, 6,000 men and horses, you must take it! Li Xin asked people to hang up the map, and then pointed to the Daijun on the map, and said to everyone.

"Your Highness, rest assured, the last general will definitely live up to his mission!" Liao Chuan hurriedly responded.

"If you are acting on behalf of the county, the king will personally sit in the town and lead the army to attack! Pingshu City, Deng Qiang, and I'll leave it to you. Give you another 2,000 soldiers and horses to gather 5,000 men, and in the same two hours, take the city for me!" Can you do it? Li Xin pointed to Pingshu City and said to Deng Qiang.

Deng Qiang was originally in Lao County, but after defeating He Laitou's army with Liang Cheng, he took advantage of the situation to advance eastward, and his army stayed near Pingshu City, in order to monitor the remnants of the He Lai tribe in the city.

"The last general will never disappoint His Highness!" Deng Qiang responded.

"Hmmm! In addition, he ordered Liang Cheng to lead 3,000 soldiers and horses to the north, sit in Pingcheng Ancient County, and closely monitor the movements of the surrounding ethnic groups, especially to prevent the Daiguo from moving south from the north! "Pingcheng Ancient County is the later Datong City, and the geographical location is extremely important.

"Immediately send a message to Yao Chang, ordering him to lead 5,000 troops out of the bottle-shaped village, take Lingqiu County for me, and then enter Lingqiu Pass eastward, and strive to take Guangchang County for me!"

"Send someone back to Chang'an to report the news, and order Wang Meng and other six Shangshu and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and select officials to rush to Yanmen and Daijun to take over the counties, there must be no mistake!"

Immediately afterwards, Li Xin issued several instructions one after another, arranging the next actions one by one. After all this was arranged, the generals went their separate ways, and Li Xin launched an attack on the county seat of Daixian.

"General Zhang, it's up to you whether this city can be captured or not!" Li Xin had an army of 10,000 in his hands, and his main attack was the West Gate, and he placed 3,000 men and horses outside the West Gate. As for the task of ascending first, he handed it over to Zhang Hao, a fierce general.

"Your Highness, rest assured, the last general will come when he goes!" Zhang Oyster said with awe-inspiring intent.

When he was finished, he took the halberd and went out of the camp. And the more than 300 people who followed him, all brave and healthy men selected from the army, were the main force of this attack.

As soon as the battle began, there was little suspense. The attacks at the other city gates were not uneven, but at the west gate, because Li Xin was here, the morale of the soldiers was extremely high.

Everyone rushed forward, all wanting to make a great contribution in front of Li Xin. Among them, Zhang Oyster is the most eye-catching.

With the continuous strengthening of the Tang Army in recent years, many things have begun to appear. No, the Mingguang armor that originally began to appear in the Sui and Tang dynasties was already born at this time.

However, the cost of such a thing is too high, and the production is too small. Therefore, only generals in the Tang Army can wear it, and ordinary generals can't wear it.

Zhang Oyster, who was already very tall and strong, put on such armor again, it was like a humanoid Tan~Ke. And even wearing such heavy armor, Zhang Oyster still walks like a fly when he moves, and is very flexible.

Under his leadership, it only took one meal for the West Gate to be opened. Naturally, the whole city collapsed, the soldiers of the Yan army died or surrendered, and the county seat of Daixian was captured.

That night, Li Xin led a large army into the city, waiting for news from all sides. At the same time, for some of the captured Yan army generals and officials, he asked Tu Qi to send them outside the Flying Fox Mouth, and asked these people to persuade the Yan soldiers who were guarding to surrender.

Murong Ping, who stayed in the mouth of the flying fox, never thought that Dai County would fall into Li Xin's hands so quickly, if Zheng didn't believe it, Murong Ni's head was hanging high outside, where could it be fake.

At this time, the defenders of Flying Fox Pass began to worry, and under the unstable morale of the army, Murong Ping couldn't help but worry about whether he could hold here. If there is a good general, the most important thing at this time is naturally to stabilize the morale of the army and let everyone feel at ease.

It's a pity that Murong Ping is not such a person. All he was thinking about now was how to save his life.

On the afternoon of the second day, good news came from Liao Chuan's side, and Dangcheng County was also successfully taken by him. Li Xin didn't have much, and ordered Mu Yu Hexin's head to be sent outside the Flying Fox Mouth, and hung up with Murong Ni's.

Looking at the head of the general on the flagpole, some of the Yan soldiers in the Flying Fox's mouth couldn't stand it anymore, and quietly ran outside the pass at night to surrender to the Tang army. When the third time came, Pingshu City was taken, and the news that all the heads of He Lai were surrendered to the Tang Army came, and the Flying Fox Pass was completely chaotic.

Originally, there were thousands of defenders, and if they were strictly guarded, there would be no big problem. But under such a series of blows, Murong Ping finally found that there were only about 600 people left by his side.

You can have 600 men, at least in such a place, this is enough men. Therefore, Murong Ping did not give up, and constantly sent people from Guangchang County to increase the defensive force, preparing to defend to the end.

But when the last news came, it seemed to be the last straw that broke the camel's back, which directly made Murong Ping have no fighting spirit. The news was that the Tang Army had taken Lingqiu County.

Two years ago, Yao Chang, who had been stationed in the bottle-shaped village, received Li Xin's military order, and immediately led the soldiers and horses that had already been prepared, crossed the bottle-shaped village and killed the Lingqiu County in the east.

In the past few years of confrontation in Yanmen County, Lingqiu County has always been the focus of the Yan army's garrison, the purpose of which is to prevent the Tang army from crossing through the bottle-shaped village. At the same time, they also wondered if they could fight from there to the Yanmen Pass.

After several years of fighting between the two sides, a state of equilibrium has been maintained, but the military conflict is not big, which does not mean that the Tang Army has no other actions. At the very least, the staff members have never stopped moving.

A few years is enough for the people of the staff department to infiltrate Lingqiu County like a sieve. Therefore, this time, as soon as the Tang Army sent troops, it was effortless to take Lingqiu County.

The name of Lingqiu began in the Warring States Period, because the sixth monarch of Zhao during the Warring States Period, Zhao Wuling King was buried here, and the West Hanzhi County belonged to Dai County, and its location was not far from the north of Lingqiu County in later generations.

Cluster is surrounded by mountains, there is no road feasible to the north and south, only to the west can pass through the bottle village into the Yanmen Pass, to the east can turn over the mountain to enter the county seat of Guangchang.

In this way, after the Tang army appeared in Lingqiu County, it would not be long before they could reach the southern end of the Flying Fox and completely cut off Murong Ping's back road.

After hearing this news, where did Murong Ping dare to stay in the Flying Fox Mouth more. That night, he took advantage of the night to quietly flee south with a few cronies, even after fleeing all the way to Guangchang County, he still felt unsafe.

In the end, he ran all the way to Zhongshan along Puyin, which can be regarded as a complete peace of mind. The problem is that when he fled, he passed through Guangchang County and did not enter, and he didn't even say hello, so that the defenders of Guangchang County didn't even know that he had run away.

As for the Yan soldiers in the Flying Fox Mouth, they found out that Murong Ping, the head of the head, had sworn that King Shangyong, who was going to defend this place, had actually fled.

In this way, I still keep a yarn! The soldiers, who were already afraid, simply abandoned the pass and surrendered when the dragons were leaderless.

As a result, Li Xin took the counties of Dai County and Flying Fox like a bamboo, and led the army all the way to Guangchang County and Lingqiu Pass.

At this time, Yao Chang led the soldiers and horses to the west of Lingqiu Pass, and under the attack of the two phases, the gate was quickly taken.

The defenders in Guangchang County were more confused, because until the Tang army appeared under the city, they thought that Murong Ping had blocked them in the north. As a result, the soldiers and horses of the Tang army, which went south first, almost galloped straight into the city and captured the city in one fell swoop.
