The 413th Operation Yaobing
Originally, even after Fu Gan successfully led a large number of reinforcements to arrive in the county seat of Xindu County, Jin Jue had already planned to stop the army and spend the winter in the new capital.
At this point, if you don't count the Shu soldiers, Jin Jue's headquarters, plus the soldiers brought into Shu County from Hanzhong County one after another, the total number has reached 50,000.
However, after Lu Bu's urging and Fu Gan's suggestion, Jin Jue finally decided to take 10,000 Yellow Turban troops to Chengdu to show off his troops once before it snowed.
Different from Fu Gan's consideration, Jin Jue also has his own two purposes for sending troops this time.
First, use heavy troops and Lu Bu to test Liu Zhang's reaction in the city.
Because with Liu Zhang's consistent urine nature, he is really likely to do something to surrender directly to Jin Juejun. Since Qian Ming is still in the city, if there is this possibility, Jin Jue will let Qian Ming replace the role of Jian Yong in history, and directly go to meet and persuade Liu Zhang.
Of course, Jin Jue also knew that if he did this, it was very likely that Qian Ming would fall into a more dangerous situation, and second, it was very likely that the situation would develop in a completely unexpected direction.
Liu Zhang's personality will not change, but Jin Jue's attitude towards the Yizhou scholars has made the Yizhou scholars think that whoever is strong can be the master of Yizhou has undergone a fundamental change.
The current situation has become for them, who will be the master of Yizhou, even if it is a barbarian, they must prevent Jin Jue from entering Yizhou.
Second, if it is impossible to make a forced landing on Liu Zhang or the actual controller in Chengdu, this time Jin Jue can use this to deter the people in the counties and townships around Chengdu.
It is conceivable that once Lu Bu appeared outside the city, Liu Zhang would not dare to continue to send troops to fight with Jin Jue's army in the field, and there was a nearly eighty percent probability of choosing to close the city gate and shrink in the city.
Liu Zhangjun everyone thought that the cold winter was coming, and Jin Jue's army would definitely not be stationed outside the city for a long time, and even blocked outside the city all the time.
In fact, it is.
Now, the time is just stuck in the short period of time before the first heavy snow of winter is about to come in Shu County, and Jin Jue's army simply does not have enough time to build a large camp outside the city.
What's more, Jin Jue arrived in Yizhou for the first time in this time and space, and he was not familiar with the local world at all, and there was no effective way to predict the weather, plus Jin Jue's army had been fighting, so there was not enough time to prepare enough cold protection in advance, so from these aspects, now is not a good time to blockade Chengdu City.
However, if Liu Zhangjun really had to do this, it would have a very positive effect on the implementation of the siege plan for Jin Jue in the bright face.
This act of showing off the soldiers will cause huge psychological pressure on the people in Chengdu.
You must know that this time, Jin Jue only led 10,000 soldiers. However, he brought Lu Bu and two tiger generals under his command - Cheng Lian and Wei Yan in his army. After seeing Wei Yan, even Lu Bu praised him, you know, it only refers to martial arts. On the contrary, Jin Jue attaches more importance to the development of his strategy methods.
In the case that there are nearly 100,000 troops in Chengdu, Liu Zhang still does not dare to send troops out of the city to confront Jin Jue's army head-on, and he has become like this, the people in the city may understand Liu Zhang's difficulties, but the soldiers and people in the city will not care about Liu Zhang's difficulties, they will only think that Liu Zhang has heavy troops but is afraid of the 10,000 troops of Jin Jue's army outside the city, how can such a monarch last long.
Once Chengdu City is blocked, the surrounding areas have always been small people who come to do business inside and outside Chengdu, because Jin Jue's Yaobing action will definitely affect their livelihoods, especially during the period when winter is about to begin.
Losing two or three incomes may cause your family to freeze and starve to death in the cold winter. Just because Chengdu City will be automatically blocked for several days because of Jin Jue's Yaobing behavior, or even ten days.
"Childe, Chengdu City is ahead!" Zhang Long rode a horse from the former army and came to Jin Jue's side, jumped off the horse and handed the reins to one of Jin Jue's guards, knelt down on one knee and reported: "According to the subordinates, the scale of this Chengdu City is not inferior to Luoyang City!" ”
"Hahaha! Zhang Long, you are really a, you dare to say anything! Just say it here, and don't say it again. If outsiders hear it, they know that you are a leopard. The Luoyang City you saw before was nothing more than Dong Zhuo's appearance after he set fire to the whole city. In terms of the height of the city wall alone, Chengdu City is still inferior.
If you don't believe it, you can ride a horse now and go to Luoxian County to have a look, where some of the city walls are actually about the same as Luoyang City, and some of the city walls that have not collapsed are higher than the city walls of Chengdu City. Chengdu City was designated as the Yizhou Governing Office by Liu Yan before his death, and it didn't take long for him to build Chengdu City.
In this respect, Liu Zhang, the assassin of Yizhou, was slightly stronger than other forces, and did not build a large number of buildings and recruited people to build a new city wall for him. When Jin Jue heard this, he laughed three times and explained.
Luoyang City and Luoxian County have experienced the invasion of fires, but Luoyang City was man-made, and the demon king Dong Zhuo was afraid that the Xiongcheng Luoyang would be occupied by other princes, so he moved the emperor and the people in Luoyang City and the surrounding areas to Guanzhong Sanfu, and ordered Lu Bu to burn the entire Luoyang City and the palace built by the emperors of the Eastern Han Dynasty into ashes.
In addition to the imperial palace, the outermost city wall of Luoyang City is the most important target.
On the contrary, the county was caused by an accident caused by a bad thunder fire. At that time, although the fire spread widely, the only city wall that was actually burned down was the southern side.
This is also the fundamental reason why when Liu Bei captured Yizhou later, it took more than a year to capture the city in order to take the original Yizhou Prefecture.
The generals and soldiers defending the city did need toughness, but the strong and towering walls became the key to the enemy's capture in a short time.
After Lu Bu on the side heard it, he didn't raise his eyelids, for the public case of burning Luoyang City, the world thought that it was Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu's fault, but, in fact, at that time, if Lu Bu didn't do it, Dong Zhuo's subordinates would also take over, and maybe even better than Lu Bu.
