Chapter 68: Prologue II of the Battle of Luoyang

Suddenly, the gate of the former Fu Wang's Mansion opened.

Fulton was in front and brought the generals into the house.

Zilharang sat on the main seat, his eyes swept away, and everyone was a little weak-hearted, and they didn't dare to look at Jilharang.

That's the veteran style.

Seeing that Zilharang was so calm, many generals reflected on whether they were too frightened.

Zilharang said in a loud voice, "What are you doing here?" ”

"Prince" Zu Zeqing said: "Now that the puppet emperor has come to Luoyang City, this Luoyang is a war or a defense, but he wants a charter. ”

"What charter do you want?" Zilharang said coldly.

Zu Zeqing was choked by Ji'er Harang and didn't dare to speak.

Zilharang swept his eyes and said, "Do you want to ask this question too?" ”

"Don't dare." None of these generals dared to speak out loud.

Jierharang said coldly: "Hong Chengchou is north of the Yellow River, Wu Sangui and Li Guoying are in Guanzhong, and the army is more than 300,000, even if Zhang Xuan arrives, what can he do." ”

"It is not yet known who killed the deer."

Zilharang's voice was not high, but for the people below, it was like taking a reassuring pill.

For a while, they didn't say much.

Zilharang said lightly: "Do you have anything else to say? ”

"Nope." The generals below said one after another.

Zilharang said: "The great war is coming, so let's go back to our roots." ”

As soon as Zilharang's words came out, the people below left here one after another.

Fulton didn't send them out, though.

Fulton looked at Zilharang with worry in his eyes.

When Zilharang saw that everyone was gone, Zilharang said, "I can't ----- die." Before he could finish his words, a mouthful of blood spurted out.

Fulton hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Amma, how are you feeling?" ”

If others don't know, can Fulton not know? Zilharang's health has long been not optimistic. He was already in poor health.

When I was young, I charged into battle, climbed the ice and snow, and when I was old, I came to the door one after another.

If only it were that.

In addition, the battle situation was unfavorable, and he exhausted his hard work, worked hard, and often meditated all night, completely overdrawing his already not very good body.

In such a situation, it is no wonder that Zilharang's body can be better.

When the news of the fall of Liaodong and the excavation of the Qingfu Tomb came, Jierharang could no longer hold on, and a mouthful of blood spurted out and fainted to the ground.

The body couldn't support it all of a sudden.

And he is the backbone of Luoyang City.

If you can't see anyone. So Zilharang asked Lang Zhong to prescribe the medicine of the tiger and wolf, and under the stimulation of these medicines. In order to cheer up and see people.

But as a result of this, his body became more and more mutilated, more and more broken. On one side is a broken battle situation, and on the other side is an unbearable body.

Under such internal and external attacks, Zilharang's body became more and more difficult to support.

"For a while, I can't die." Zilharang slumped in his chair for a long time, and then took out a letter in his bosom and said, "You take this letter with you and leave Luoyang immediately and go to Beijing." Explain to the Empress Dowager Zheng that the way to live in my Eight Banners is on the grassland. ”

Fulton listened and said, "Amma, how can I leave Luoyang at this time. ”

"What can't you leave?" Zilharang said: "I'm like this, but I just die, but even if I die, I won't let Zhang Xuan's thief have a good time." ”

"Your brother is still young, my family's lineage depends on you, if you don't go back, in such a chaotic situation, how can your mother and your brother survive."

"Go, don't think of me, just as I'm dead."

Fulton's eyes were red, and for a moment his heart was like a knife, he took a few steps back, knelt on the ground, and said, "Amma, I'm going." ”

Fulton is not unfilial, but he knows that now, not to mention the war, it is impossible to travel thousands of miles just because of his father's illness.

He served his father here, and it was easy for him to die with his father. But what should the big family of Prince Zheng's Mansion do in Beijing?

His father is gone, he is the eldest son, he is the eldest brother, and he must carry this mess.

For a while, he wished that a knife would split him in half, half of which would accompany his father here, and half would go back to Beijing to deal with the crisis.

He knocked his head several times, only his scalp was bleeding, and he turned to leave, not daring to look back. I'm afraid that when I look back, I can't go again.

When Zilharang saw Fulton leaving, his heart was relieved and sad for a while.

It's sad that he is a hero in his life, and when he died, he didn't even have an heir by his side, and it was gratifying that Fulton, a child, was much more talented than before.

It's ridiculous.

In the second generation of the Qing court in history, it was actually not very good, otherwise when Kangxi Ping was in the three feudatories, that is, when the Hexi Han Army was famous, the famous were the four generals of Hexi, and there were not many generals in the Qing court.

But here on top of history.

In the face of such a crisis, the children of Eight Banners have no way back.

On the contrary, a group of outstanding generals emerged, and this group of outstanding generals supported the situation after the Manchu Qing Dynasty withdrew from Beijing. It seems to verify the saying, born in sorrow, died in peace.

Fulton left Luoyang, and just got on the ferry of the Yellow River, he heard the south bank of the Yellow River, shouting and killing, but it was the Xia army that had cut off the northern retreat of Luoyang.

At this time, Luoyang had been surrounded by hundreds of thousands of troops, and there was no way out.

Just when the Xia army completed the siege of Luoyang City and was about to launch a general attack on Luoyang City, Wu Sangui also came to his own life

It's time to make a decision.

He Hutou, as the vanguard, rode with footsteps, forcing the Qing army to retreat step by step. It fully shows that He Hutou, as the most senior firearms general in the Xia army, has attainments in the way of firearms.

At this point, I'm afraid Zhang Xuan can't compare to him.

There are some things, if you want to pick them up again, it will take a while to get used to it, Zhang Xuan has been out of the front line for several years, and in the past few years, Xia Jun has been reborn under the auspices of Zhang Xuan.

At this time, some of the previous tactics had to be changed.

Therefore, it is normal that Zhang Xuan is not as good as He Hutou.

After entering the Great Northwest, He Hutou also temporarily recruited Mongolia. The cavalry returned to each unit, led by Daniel Zhang, to contain the Qing cavalry.

But I don't want this Daniel Zhang to be a general.

Then it was the newly collected guerrilla scattered brave, under the integration of Daniel Zhang, and then equipped with some firearms, such as handcuffs, hand-grenades and the like.

actually cooperated quite well with the Xia army's foot soldiers, and defeated Wu Sangui's Guanning iron cavalry one after another.

Of course, Wu Sangui also has the intention of maintaining troops.

In this way, Wu Sangui could only watch as He Hutou's partial division was only more than 30,000 people, and he marched into Fengxiang's mansion.

At this time, Wu Sangui received a handwritten letter from Zhang Xuan. List three paths for him, lift the pass and surrender, and not lose the reward of the king.

But Wu Sangui also understood that at this time, the king was just a title. I can't think of a rich idler.

This is one of them.

Stubbornly resisted to the end, the jade was burned, Zhang Xuan made it clear that if Wu Sangui really wanted to do this, he would list Wu Sangui with the Eight Banners and punish him, and there would be no forgiveness.

This is the second one.

If Wu Sangui neither wants to fight nor surrender, he can roll the troops in the pass and go west, Gansu is barren, and the Western Regions are empty, which is enough to be the lord of one side.

Even if he wanted to chase it, within a few years, there was no way.

can let Wu Sangui continue to wait and see what the situation in the world is.

These three choices were listed in front of Wu Sangui's eyes, and to be honest, he didn't want to choose anything. But the situation is stronger than people, and you can only choose one.

It's just that Wu Sangui is really not a decisive one.

If Zhang Xuan forced him to surrender, he might have surrendered.

But after he had multiple options, he was hesitant.

It's just that he thought about it and finally chose the compromise option. It seems to be in response to what Lu Xun said, if you want to do something, you have to take two steps forward and one step back to succeed.

Wu Sangui decided this time, and the entire Guanzhong was sent to He Hutou, you must know that Li Guoying in Guanzhong has entered Shanxi to encircle and suppress Wang Fuzhi.

The situation in the world suddenly became clear.

Half of the periphery of Luoyang has gone, and the remaining half has signs of not being able to hold on, there are soldiers who can be rescued outside, and there is no city that must be defended inside.

The fate of Luoyang City was doomed from the beginning.
