Everything was as Li Xin expected, Murong Ke did divide his troops into two routes, and then crossed the river from Chenggao's side. In Heyin, he personally led 10,000 troops to attack Huan Yun, and under his repeated onslaughts, he finally attracted most of the attention of Huan Wen and others. As for the remaining half of the attention, Huan Wen and them naturally focused on Luoyang City. In this way, there is naturally no energy to take care of other places.

On the first day of the first month of March, Murong Ke's other army of 20,000 men crossed the Yellow River under the leadership of the leading general Mu Yugen. He first crossed the river with a small number of soldiers and horses, so that after controlling the ferry on the south bank and the Tiger Prison Pass, he marched with a large army.

In this way, Huan Wen's side didn't have time to get the news at all. The other is that Mu Yugen did not stop for a moment after leading the army across the river, and immediately marched west along the Yellow River, and arrived at the place where the original mausoleum was located north of Luoyang in one day and one night.

The original mausoleum is the mausoleum of Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Xiu, which is located on the south bank of the Yellow River north of Pishan, and the surrounding terrain is relatively flat. The most important thing is that if you go south from here, Bishan is just cut off from the middle, which happens to be a smooth road to Luoyang.

When Mu Yugen's army arrived, Huan Wen's side was still attacking Luoyang and resisting Murong Ke's attack.

Although it is said that at the beginning, he placed 3,000 soldiers and horses as a defense at the gap in the mountain. But this point of strength is under the superior strength of the Yan army, where can it be stopped, especially when the other party still has cavalry.

And after Huan Wen received the emergency information from the front line, he finally reacted. At this time, he finally realized Murong Ke's thoughts, so that the attack on Luoyang City would inevitably have to be eased up first.

His soldiers and horses have lost a lot in attacking Luoyang City in the past few days, and at this time, facing the attack from the west and the north, they have to divide part of the soldiers and horses attacking the city to support the defense of the north.

Fortunately, there are not many soldiers and horses in Luoyang City, otherwise, if Murong Trai suddenly kills from the city at this time, I am afraid that Huan Wen will really not be able to stop it.

Huan Wen left 10,000 troops to surround Luoyang City and continue to attack, while the remaining 10,000 troops were personally led by him to rush to the gap in Pishan, preparing to block the southward movement of the Yan army there.

Because Li Xin had expected it, Tu Qi had already sent additional people to keep an eye on Chenggao County before. In this way, when Huan Wen's side was fighting, Li Xin's side also happened to get the news.

"General, everything is as you expected, Murong Ke sent another 20,000 cavalry to cross the river, and then killed all the way from the Tiger Prison Pass to the Yuanling. The place where the original tomb is located is only dozens of miles away from Luoyang City, and Huan Wen has already led the army to block it at this time. If he hadn't been able to stop it, it was conceivable that this time the Battle of Luoyang would inevitably end with Jiang Zuo's defeat! Tu Qi came in a hurry and delivered the latest news.

"The road leading from Luoyang to the Yuanling is relatively flat and relatively wide, which is suitable for the march of a large group of people. But in any case, there are mountains and mountains on both sides of the road, and if Huan Wen is properly arranged, and the defense line is established with it as a stronghold, Mu Yugen has 20,000 troops in his hands, and it is unlikely that he will be able to fight. As long as it lasts long enough, Huan Wenda can divide his troops and go away, so Murong Ke will have to join forces! Li Xin thought for a moment and then said.

"Mu Yugen is menacing, and the number of soldiers and horses exceeds that of Huan Wen. Come to think of it, Huan Wen shouldn't say that he took the initiative to attack Mu Yugen, right? In such a situation, the best way is to stick to it! The subordinates have seen Huan Wen lead the troops for many years, so they won't even understand this truth, right? Hearing this, Tu Qi couldn't help but analyze.

"You don't understand, although Huan Wen is quite talented, he is sometimes very stubborn! Even if he thought of this himself, if the battle situation suddenly changed, I am afraid that he would suddenly change his mind! In addition, the Jin army is no better than our Huashan army~ things, almost all actions are decided by one person, in this case, it is strange that he can listen to the opinions of others! That's why, in the past, whenever a great war was about to break out, I would summon you together to discuss. It's because I don't want everyone to develop the habit of being arbitrary! Li Xin shook his head and said lightly.

Huan Wen's temper can almost be seen by Li Xin from some records about him in the history books. After all, during the period of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Huan Wen was an unavoidable figure, and there are many accounts of him in the history books.

The other is through the interactions with the other party over the years, and then the observation of some things about him, which can be seen. Although Huan Wen's temperament is not extreme, it is by no means a master's talent.

"If that's the case, wouldn't Huan Wen be worried about defeat? In this way, Luoyang City may really fall into the hands of Yan Kingdom, which is quite unfavorable for us! Tu Qi listened, pondered for a moment, and said with some worry.

"The impact is indeed not small, especially if Huan Wen is defeated, it will not be a good thing for us! Well, you send someone to Nanling Pass and Wuguan with my general order, and order Chen Kang and Zhao Ji to prepare for it, and once they find that Huan Wen is defeated and retreat, they will quickly send troops to meet them. Li Xin also thought of the hidden worries in this, so he had to think about it for a while, and finally said.

"This.... If we send troops, won't we have to go to war with the Yan army? We have just reached an armistice with the Yan army, and I am afraid that we will have to bear the name of betrayal! Again, if we get involved in it rashly, don't transfer the war to us at that time! Tu Qiyi heard that he was going to send troops to rescue Huan Wen, and hurriedly said.

"Sending troops doesn't have to be about going to war! If Huan Wen is defeated and retreats, it will inevitably retreat along Luoshui or Yishui, this direction is relatively close to Nanling Pass and Wuguan, just on the edge of our defense area. As long as our soldiers and horses appear at the right time, they don't need to attack, as long as the Yan army sees our soldiers and horses, they will definitely have some scruples! As for whether Huan Wen can seize ~ this respite, it depends on his own ability! Li Xin smiled and said slowly.

When Li Xin and Tu Qi were discussing the matter on Luoyang's side, Huan Wen had already led his army to the mountain pass south of the original tomb.

Although it is said that Mu Yugen's army is attacking repeatedly, the generals of the Jin army guarding this place also know that this place is very important. Therefore, under desperate resistance, he barely held on, and finally supported Huan Wen to rush over.

"General, if you come here a little later, I'm afraid we'll all die here!" Seeing that Huan Wen personally led the army to support, the general guarding couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and hurriedly greeted him.

"What's going on? How many soldiers and horses does the enemy have? Seeing that the defense line was still there, Huan Wen was a little relieved, and asked while looking north.

"The battle ahead is fierce, and most of the more than 3,000 soldiers are dead and wounded. The enemy army is fierce, I don't know how many soldiers and horses are coming, at a glance, it seems that there are tens of thousands of horses! The general hurriedly replied.

"Murong Ke played a good game, he actually wanted to attack me on both sides, and he definitely couldn't let him succeed. The battle here must end as soon as possible, and then the army can take advantage of the situation to attack Heyin, as long as Murong Ke's two armies are defeated, Luoyang City will become a lonely city, and it will be easy to go down at that time! When Huan Wen heard this, he became more confident in his heart and said to everyone.

Luoyang City has not been taken for so long, in fact, there is an important reason that the defenders in the city know that there are their own reinforcements on the Heyin side. Therefore, they will be determined to support it, otherwise, after fighting for so long, I am afraid that they will not be able to support it for a long time.

Cutting off his aid to the lonely city and messing up his heart, Huan Wen's idea is indeed no problem from the overall situation.

Especially under the current situation, Heyin, Yuanling and Luoyang are all at war. If this situation cannot be broken as soon as possible, with the current strength of the Jin army, it will definitely be unfavorable if it drags on for a long time.

Once any of these three soldiers and horses open a breakthrough, then the other two soldiers and horses of Huan Wen will face a huge crisis. When the time comes, a major defeat is inevitable.

"General, there are many enemies in front of you, and the morale of the newly arrived enemy troops is bound to be high, and it is the time when the fighting spirit is at its peak. If we fight the enemy at this time, I am afraid that we will inevitably suffer losses in the end! In the opinion of our subordinates, it is better for us to stick to this place, and then dispatch troops and horses to assist General Huan Yun to solve the problem on the Heyin side first, or to take Luoyang City first! After solving one of them, then solve it here, it must be a matter of course! Xi Chao heard his words on the side, and hurriedly suggested.

After all, the other two places have been fighting for a few days, especially Luoyang City, which has been fighting for several months. If the Yan army in the city learns that their reinforcements are dozens of miles away, but they can't move forward at all, I'm afraid it will be a big blow to their morale.

In the art of war, there is a saying that clouds avoid the enemy's edge, and Xi Chao's consideration is exactly this. After all, Mu Yugen and the others had just killed and had not encountered a single setback, and it was the time when their combat power was at their strongest. To fight with them at this time is to commit the taboo of the art of war.

However, Huan Wen obviously didn't think so, and after hearing this, he said: "We have been besieging the city for a long time, and Luoyang can't be attacked for a long time, and I'm afraid we won't be able to take it in a short time." As for the Heyin side, Murong Ke is in charge in person, so it is only advisable to slow down. Only here, when the enemy is careless, we can defeat it at once! ”
