Chapter 374: Plans are not as fast as change
Before the battle, Wu Yuankui had already detected Lu Boning's situation.
According to his report, in order to monopolize the supplies of Tucheng, Lu Boning went into battle lightly, and did not carry much grain and grass when the army came.
At this time, he was trapped in Tucheng, there was no surplus food and grass, and a raging fire burned in the city, which made his situation even worse.
Trapped him in Tucheng for two or three days, even if Lu Boning refused to surrender, when there was no rations, wouldn't the Xiliang Iron Cavalry led by him still surrender?
In this battle, Ji Xuanling was full of ambition.
Lu Boning has been reduced to a turtle in an urn and is slaughtered by the Qin army.
However, the Qin army has a longer-term vision, waiting for Gao Hong and Han Xun to lead the army.
The south bank of the Qingshui River.
Clearwater Castle.
Water Village.
Early in the morning, Gao Yi received a message from a messenger sent by Lu Boning.
It was learned that the Qin army was storing military supplies in the city, and that Lu Boning had led the army to come.
Gao Yi and Guo Muyu discussed, and immediately beat drums to gather troops and assemble sailors.
wants to wave his army across the river and gallop to the aid of Lu Boning.
The Jingzhou army was stationed in Qingshui City, facing troops from the north at any time, while Tongcheng was the outpost of the Qin king's southern expedition.
If he assists Lu Boning to occupy Tucheng, the Xiangzhou Navy Division, and the Xiliang Iron Cavalry will coordinate the deployment in the city, and they will definitely be able to block the Qin army's troops.
Moreover, Han Xun led the army to come, and it was extremely close to Qingshui City.
At that time, crossing the river to the north and converging the three armies will make the Qin army more dangerous.
Once the three armies gain a firm foothold in Tucheng, borrowing Lu Boning's Xiliang Iron Cavalry and Ram Yue's Longxi Iron Cavalry, the recovery of Changchuan City is just around the corner.
It is by no means impossible to finally expel the King of Qin to the north bank of the Guankou River.
Gao Yi was full of ambition and looked like victory was in sight.
The sailors assembled, and the warships on the river swayed.
At a glance, there is a large piece of black pressure.
Gao Yi arrived at the city tower with a sword in armor, stood up at the high-rise building of the water village, raised his eyes to the north, and observed the situation in Tucheng, Hebei.
Smoke billowed from the north shore, roaring, killing shouts, one after another.
Gao Yi found that the situation on the north shore did not seem to be as simple as Lu Boning said.
The smoke came from Tucheng, and the Qin army came from outside the city.
If he guessed correctly, Lu Boning was joined by the Qin army.
At this time, he was even trapped and killed by the Qin army in Tucheng.
Gao Yijian frowned, his face was solemn, and he told his side: "Quickly send scouts to the north shore to spy on the situation on the north shore." The summoned sailors were ordered to stand by, and without the general's order, no warship could cross the river and go ashore, and those who disobeyed the order would be killed. β
"Whoa!" The general was ordered to leave.
Guo Muyu, who also climbed the tall building, had a different idea and asked: "General Gao, what are you afraid of, why don't you take advantage of the Qin army's attention to focus on Lu Boning, and the sailors cross the river and sneak attack the Qin army?" β
The Qingshui River is separated by a river from Tongcheng, and it comes in the blink of an eye.
LΓΌ Boning occupied Tucheng, and they led the army to cross the river to help LΓΌ Boning gain a firm foothold in Tucheng, which was very convenient to block the Qin army, and even obtained military supplies in Tucheng.
Gao Yi's expression was serious, he didn't change his mind, and said coldly: "General Guo, you are a veteran of Jingzhou, leading the army to fight against the Qin army in Changchuan City, isn't it clear, the voice from the north is clearly the voice of the Qin army." β
Finding that Guo Muyu was not convinced, Gao Yi's voice intensified: "If there are military supplies stored in the city, why should the Qin army set fire to the city." If the last general guessed correctly, the military supplies in Tucheng were just a trap deliberately set by King Qin. β
The counties of Jingzhou fell one after another, and the fierce soldiers pointed directly at Xiangzhou.
Gao Yi's troops were stationed in Qingshui City, which was the only way to go deep into the south, and as a general appointed by Zhao Tuo, Gao Yi was careless about the enemy.
When he is not absolutely sure, he will never risk his life.
Put yourself in danger and put Xiangzhou in danger.
After all, in addition to the Qin army on the north bank, there were still Chu troops swaying on the river surface of Qianzhou, and they could not lead the army to sneak attack at some point.
Once Qingshui City changed hands, Xiangzhou was in a worrying situation.
When the prince arrived in Puling City, he didn't have time to rest, so he should continue to flee in a hurry.
Guo Muyu heard the voice, paused, listened with his ears pricked up, and said: "Well, it's like Qin Jun's voice, but you and I will wait and see what happens, and Lu Boning will definitely be held accountable in the future." Moreover, allowing Lu Boning's Xiliang Iron Cavalry to be weakened by the Qin army, he fought against the Qin army every day, and the pressure on the sailors was even greater. β
Thinking of the danger faced by the troops he led outside Changchuan City, fighting against the Qin army, Guo Muyu was a little distraught.
However, Guo Muyu wanted to use Lu Boning's Xiliang Iron Cavalry to confront the Qin army, so he still hoped to lead the army to cross the river to help.
This is a great risk, and if you can defend the city, it will also be very profitable.
"General Guo, the last general suggests that we wait for the messenger to send back the news before making a decision." Gao Yi's attitude softened, after all, Guo Muyu's military position was above him, and he did not want to know Guo Muyu when he did not thoroughly understand the situation on the north bank.
"Good!"
Guo Muyu nodded, and said, "General Gao, send someone to inform Han Xun of the battle situation on the north bank, lest he lead the army to kill Tucheng without knowing it, and just fall into the trap of the Qin army." β
"Whoa!" Gao Yi received the order and sent a messenger to go.
Mist.
The morning sun is confined to the morning mist.
Changchuan Castle.
Shen Tuxiu, Gai Wenguang, taking advantage of the cover of the morning fog, had led the army out of the city secretly and lurked outside the camp in Longxi.
At this time, the Longxi military marshal was in the tent.
The ram turned pale and thundered.
Lu Boning left, and the Qin army really killed.
Knowing that he was wandering outside the barracks, he sent generals to deploy defenses to resist the Qin army.
In the depression, Ram He quickly entered the tent and said anxiously: "Father, as you expected, Lu Boning captured Tucheng, that is, he was surrounded by the Qin army, at this time the city was on fire, and the Qin army suppressed the military might of the Xiliang army with the help of the arrow array. β
"Eldest prince, this is expected, Lu Boning is insatiable, is it strange if he doesn't fall for it?" Guo Jikang stroked his beard and said.
Lu Boning is in danger, why is their situation not dangerous.
Shen Tuxiu, Gai Wenguang led the army to come, how could he take care of Lu Boning.
The ram Yue's face was cold, and he said in an unusually cold voice: "At the moment of the strong enemy, we should strive to protect ourselves, but we must not allow Lu Boning to be wiped out by the Qin army, and when it is time to rescue, we must try to rescue it." β
Without Lu Boning, it would be difficult for him to lead the Longxi Iron Cavalry to survive alone in front of the Qiang Qin soldiers, and without the Longxi Iron Cavalry, it would still be difficult for Lu Boning to lead the Xiliang Iron Cavalry to survive.
They have a stake, and they lose both.
To rescue Lu Boning is to save yourself.
However, it is imperative that we take the lead in resisting the Qin army.
"Lord, the last general is ready, if Shen Tuxiu dares to sneak attack the military camp, even if he dies on the battlefield, the last general will fight to the death." Lin Jianlu clenched his fists and said sonorously.
The enemy was outnumbered, and the Qin army occupied favorable terrain, and it was almost wishful thinking to resolve the crisis.
There is no way to resolve the crisis, and they will leave their lives here.
"I'd rather die than give in!" Lu Yanzhang said categorically, expressing his attitude of fighting to the death.
