Chapter 20, Wei Wei rescued Zhao

This three-story crash car was designed by the Jin craftsmen who were exiled to Pingyang, Liu Cang originally had high hopes for it, thinking that it would be able to successfully crash through the city gate, and then put in elite infantry, even if it could not break the city in one fell swoop, it could also cause heavy damage to the Jin army who came to block it near the city gate, and more importantly, it caused strong psychological pressure - who would have thought that before it could really hit the city gate, it would be smashed, and then the Jin people threw torches and burned it completely.

Tao Kan was good at defending the city, and Pei Cai's whimsical ideas emerged one after another, which made Liu Cang attack for several days, and it was difficult to break through Haoyang in a hundred ways.

Liu Ji from the south came with news, saying that he had arrived at the city of Dali, and was bumping into the Jin people out of the city, probably wanting to reinforce Yunyang, and fighting with it, quite successful, but then the Jin people retracted back into the city, their own number of troops was limited, they did not dare to attack, and it was inconvenient to wade across Beiluoshui and Weishui, and planned to turn around to capture the ferry near Pujin.

Liu Cang had already taken the Haoyang ferry, and immediately ordered the Hedong side to release the ship and transport grain to the army. Who expected that the Yellow River flows from north to south, and crosses from east to west, in fact, it is an oblique line, and the grain fleet just passes through the east city of Haoyang. Tao Kan opened the water gate, sent the ship out, launched rockets, and the grain ship collapsed, and more than half of the grain and grass were burned or floated into the water.

Liu Cang had no choice but to transport grain from the ferry port in the north, first in Xiayang City, and then in the south, which was two more days away and caused great loss. He's in a hurry, why don't you come to the rescue of Pei Cai, Jin people? Are you really not going to ask for Pei Da Sima's life?

When he was irritable, the sergeant came to report that he had found several small boats coming out of the west gate of Haoyang, going around the entrance and going straight to the south. Tian Song said: "This must Pei should summon all the troops to come to help, but let him go." Liu Cang nodded and said, "I should let ...... go," but then frowned and said, "If my brother gets the Pujin ferry, he can't go ashore, how to deal with it?" ”

Tian Song said: "I can order the general not to take Pujindu for the time being." And the minister said that Pei should not be able to ask for help from the river, so he would risk sending people to protrude by land, and he could tell the battalions, and if he only rode three or five, let him go. ”

Liu Cang ordered according to his words, and sure enough, that night, there was a report that the Jin cavalry broke through the siege and scattered in all directions. Liu Cang was overjoyed and said: "Wait for him to come and go, it won't take five days, and the Jin division will arrive - I can suspend the siege of the city and divide the troops to encircle and annihilate it." "To tell the truth, the siege battle in the past few days has exhausted him, and the losses are quite large, since he knows that the reinforcements of the Jin army are coming, it is just a good time to breathe a sigh of relief, don't shake the city wall without any strategy.

Who wanted the messenger sent out by Pei Cai, but ordered all the armies in Pinyang to take Guo Mo as the commander, and the Dali troops to take Zhen Sui as the commander, first press the troops and do not move, wait for the smoke to be lit in Haoyang, and then make a joint effort to attack the Hu camp on the fifth day.

At this time, Guo Mo had already arrived in Pinyang, and the city included the battalions of "Thunder", "Qiji", "Robbery Left", "Pengshan Zuo", "Wulinzhong", and "Bashang", with nearly 20,000 people; In Dali City, in addition to the 7,000 recruits newly transferred from Chang'an, there should also be two battalions of "robbing the fire" and "robbing the right of the fire", with a total of 15,000 people.

Zhen Sui and Wang Ze hadn't been able to enter Dali City at this time, they had just arrived on the outskirts of Chang'an two days ago. At the fork in the road, Zhen Sui left his wife behind, and instructed the guards and servants, saying that you should escort your wife to Chang'an and live in my house, and then lifted the curtain and said to Liang:

"In the past, I lived alone, and my family house was not very big, and I was wronged by my wife. And look at the surrounding houses, and if there is anything that is satisfactory, I will write it down first, and when I return victorious, I will buy it for my wife. The first thing that Mrs. entered Chang'an, she had to go to visit Mrs. Pei Da Sima, and she must not forget. ”

Liang asked expressionlessly, "Is the general going into battle now?" You must know that the sword has no eyes, if I can't return, what should I do? ”

Zhen Sui was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said with a smile: "If I have bad luck and die in battle, my wife can remarry." ”

Liang then asked, "What if I already have a child in my womb?" ”

When Zhen Sui heard this, he couldn't help but stare at him: "How can it be so fast?!" ”

Liang snorted coldly: "But it's hard to say...... I asked first whether I gave birth and how to place it, in case the general was hit by an arrow, I could also raise for the rest of my life. ”

Zhen Sui's smile was a little stiff: "Since I'm dead, who cares about it?" If you want to give birth, you will give it away, and let your wife do it. ”

Liang still didn't give up: "Have you thought of a name?" ”

Zhen "brushed" the curtain down, and said: "Who is impatient to think of a name - let Mrs. Then he waved his hand: "Hurry up, hurry up, don't delay our army's trip." ”

Wang Ze was not far away, and when he heard this inexplicable conversation, he couldn't help but come over lamely, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Zun has such a big temper, could it be that Governor Zhen made her angry?" ”

Zhen Sui pouted and said, "She is reluctant to give up on me." If you get married, and your husband is going to fight and kill, may you feel good in your heart? Wang Ze said with a smile: "I have to marry someone or not, how do I know." ”

The two got on the horse side by side, and walked out less than half a mile, Zhen Sui suddenly seemed to ask Wang Ze, and seemed to be talking to himself: "It's really like an arrow, give birth to a boy, what's the name?" ”

——————————

The news of the police in Guanzhong naturally had a quick report to Luoyang, and Sima Ye immediately summoned the important ministers to discuss: "Hu Kou is going to attack Sima, does Henan need to send troops to rescue?" ”

The important ministers of the DPRK and China were basically divided into two camps, one of which was dedicated to Guanzhong, and the other was based in Henan. The Guanzhong faction was naturally anxious and hoped that the imperial court would urgently send reinforcements, so Xun Song said: "I heard that Liu Cang raised his troops to cross the Yellow River to the west, and the great Sima Fang attacked Sima Bao, I am afraid that Feng Yi is in danger before he returns to the division." If Feng Yi is lost, Chang'an will also be difficult to defend, Chang'an will be mourned, Yong, Qin and Henan will be separated for it, which is a trend that cannot be saved. ”

However, Zu Yue of the Henan faction objected, saying: "The imperial court stayed in Chang'an, Taiwan, and the great Sima of the Western Affairs raised his own funds. Then he sneered: "Da Sima is proud of his strong soldiers, and he doesn't wait for the help of the court, so why should the public worry about the sky?" ”

He felt that Pei should regard Guanzhong as his own territory—just like Henan was my ancestor's territory—so he believed that the army was strong enough to resist Hu Shi, and he must not want the imperial court to interfere. If we change places and Henan encounters police, unless the situation is critical and we must not be able to defend it, we will not go to Guanzhong to ask for help, isn't that a chance to give Pei Cai a favor to me in vain? How will you repay in the future, and how will you maintain the equal status of both parties?

Hua Heng and Xi Ni said: "Liu Cang has raised the country's troops to Guanzhong, then Hedong and Pingyang will be empty, why don't the imperial court take this opportunity to send a brigade of troops to cross the river to recover their homeland?" This is also a plan to save Zhao from Wei. As he spoke, he glanced at Zu Ti with his eyes.

Before Zu Li could speak, Zu Yue hurriedly said again: "Liu Cang dares to attack the inside and outside, how can he be defenseless?" Now that the slaves have fallen into the state, it is expected that they will pass the Taihang in the south to face the big river, so if I send troops to the north, and the slaves come south, I am afraid that Luoyang will be in danger. Don't move! ”

This is also what Zu Ti is worried about, he has been waiting for news from the northeast for the past two days to see what plans Shi Le and Shi Hu Group make. If the Shi clan did not move, he would also like to take this opportunity to save Guanzhong in the west, break Liu Cang's main force in one fell swoop, or cross the Yellow River to the north and go straight to the heart of Hu Han. But the news hasn't come back yet, and the intelligence in all aspects is not enough to support him to make a major decision, so he can only let his brother Zuyue stand in front of him and help delay time.

Theoretically speaking, no matter how strong Liu Can's army is, there is no reason for Pei to be defeated instantly, right? It shouldn't be a problem to support for a month or two, enough to wait for all the actions of the Luoyang side.

Sure enough, a few days later, news came, saying that Shi Le sent Tao Leopard to lead his troops into Ji County, which seemed to have the intention of crossing the river. Zu Ti first gathered the generals in his house to discuss countermeasures, and Li Ju pointed out sharply: "This virtual soldier is also! ”

He said: "There are Shi Hu, Xuan An, Kong Chang, etc., all of whom can be responsible for the aspect, and the peach leopard is just a brave man. If he receives the edict of Pingyang and wants to cross the river to attack me, why should he stop sending the peach leopard? It's just a bluff to tie me up, so that I can't save the pass. ”

But Zuyo said, "No." We have detected that the peach leopard has entered the trap, but do you know that there is no army to follow in? Yan and Yu are my foundations, and if the army goes west, and the slaves take the opportunity to cross the river and take Yan and Yu directly, the situation will be ruined. ”

Li Ju, Wei and the others all squinted at each other, and said in their hearts Yan and Yu are the foundation of your family, what does it have to do with me? These generals have been fighting in the north and south of the river and Sizhou for a long time, and no one takes Yan and Henan too seriously.

Wei Gai said: "Ming Gong and Da Sima share the government of the dynasty and are the country's shares, the other side is in trouble, can An be saved?" If you are afraid that the slaves will cross the river, you can stop the general from leading his troops west...... "What does he mean, you must at least make a gesture of rescuing the pass, and you will not be talked about, saying that you have no overall situation, and sit and watch the success or failure, right?"

Zu Ti was silent. Zu Yue hurriedly helped his brother speak: "If Pei Gong sends an envoy to ask for help, we should go to the rescue, and now we will report Liu Cang's westward advance, and do not ask for help, why should Qing and the others go beyond the bounds?" ”

Xiao general Feng Long said: "The last general understands the meaning of the Great Sima, and he wants to tie Liu Cang with himself, so that I can cross the river to the north and go straight to Pingyang!" This is a great opportunity, so don't miss it! ”

Zu Yue said: "The soldiers and horses in Sizhou are inspected, but there are only 30,000 or 50,000 people, and most of them have not been trained. And if the Yan and Yu soldiers come, I am afraid that I will be copied by the slaves. If the slaves advance west from Yanzhou and threaten Luoyang, what will they do? The Son of Heaven is here, if there is a mistake, who can take the blame?! ”

He carried out the emperor's safety and oppressed people, Feng Long and the others didn't dare to say more, and set their eyes on Zu Ti together. Zu Shizhi couldn't help laughing, and said: "If the Son of Heaven is not in Luoyang, I don't have to worry about the future, I should be the pro-commander of Pixiu, cross the river to the north, and go to get Liu Cong's head!" There are so many stakes now...... That's why Pei Wen is willing to return the Son of Heaven to the capital, I used to respect his loyalty, and today I am wise. ”

Suddenly, he looked at Li Ju and asked, "The guard general of the Hu Thief Hanoi is the old man of Naiqing, do you dare to attack?" ”

This "old man", talking about Zhao Gu, swayed back and forth several times, and finally attached Hu, and Liu Cang still ordered him to garrison Hanoi County. Li Ju and Guo Mo and others also fought in Hanoi for many years, and they often dealt with Zhao Gu.

Before Li Shihui could answer, Zu Yue asked first: "Does Brother really want to cross the river?" I hope to be cautious. ”

Zu Ti replied: "Jizhou was plagued by locusts, and I expected that the slaves would not dare to attack my Yan and Yu on a large scale, but what the virtuous brother said was also that he or Nandu would tie me up, so that he could not go to the aid of Guanzhong." However, ......" said with a slightly sinking face, and clapped a few cases with his hands, "If the peach leopard is stopped from entering the army, and the soldiers are in Hebei, I don't dare to act, and I want to wait for him to strike first, how cowardly is it?" Why are you waiting for someone like my ancestor Shizhi?!

"Therefore, I want to send troops to cross the river and enter Hanoi, and if I get Hanoi, I will cut off the southern road of Hebei......"

Between Bingzhou and Jizhou, there are thousands of miles of Taixing obstruction, too traveling, the road is dangerous and difficult, and the traffic and communication are very inconvenient. Therefore, under normal circumstances, if the two states go back and forth between the two states, taking more south of Taihang and north of the Yellow River, that is, through the road of Hanoi, if Hanoi is cut off, it will be similar to dividing the Hu and Han regimes from the middle, which is a situation that neither the Liu father and son nor the uncle and nephew of Shile want to face.

Zu Ti said that since Liu Cang dared to send a large number of troops to attack the fortified positions, he would inevitably set up a fortress on the north bank of the Yellow River in advance, in case I took the opportunity to cross north, take Hedong and Pingyang directly, and attack their hearts, but for the Hanoi side, the garrison may not be so tight. Because it was Zhao Gu's territory, and Hu and Han were not monolithic, and the generals set up their own mountains—Shile was the most obvious—the imperial decrees could not be carried out unimpeded. Therefore, if I attack Hanoi, the initial resistance may be relatively small......

"Zhao Gu, if you want to come to General Li, you must not be afraid."

If I take Hanoi, not only Liu Cang will be anxious, but Shile will also be on fire. For the former, it can contain its forces and play a role in "encircling Wei and saving Zhao" in Guanzhong; As for the latter, even if he has a plan to attack our Yan and Yu, seeing this situation, he will inevitably transfer troops and horses to save Hanoi first, and only in this way can he cause the enemy but not the enemy.

But this sword sealing the throat will inevitably trigger a strong backlash from the other party, not to mention that Shi Le will inevitably send a division to rescue, maybe Liu Cang will not be able to attack the key points, and directly pull the soldiers back to Hanoi. Therefore, when our army crosses the river, the initial resistance must be small, but then it may attract the Hu army to be surrounded on three sides - "Does General Li dare to cross the river?" ”

He asked in vain, if Li Ju was a coward, he would not have worked hard in the north and south of the river for many years, and he would have been able to survive until Pei and Zu's Northern Expedition, and when the clouds opened and the moon was bright, he immediately arched his hand: "I am willing to cross the river, and I will take Zhao Gu's head and dedicate it to Que!" ”

Zu Ti made up his mind on this, and the next day he played Sima Ye, ordered Li Ju to be the main general, and Wei should be the deputy general, leading 7,000 elite soldiers from Mengjin to cross the river to the north to take Hanoi. Before the army was dispatched, he took Li Ju's hand and said: "The general will go first, if the thief is too late to come to the rescue, if he dares to come, I will personally lead the main force to follow, that is, between Wenxian and Yewang, and fight to the death with Shile!" ”

He estimated that it would be impossible for Liu Cang to withdraw so easily—otherwise, I would look down on Pei Wenyue from now on! The only one who was most likely to come to the rescue of Hanoi was Shile, and it was just so time that I had a face-to-face contest with this slave to see who was stronger and who was weaker.

Li Ju responded: "If the slave comes, Ju will be rejected by the general, and wait for the general to come to break the thief." "Shi Leguang has no less than 100,000 soldiers and horses east of Taihang Mountain, if he really orders most of them to rescue Hanoi, Li Shihui is not a fool, he knows that he will definitely not be able to defeat him. But if the early stage goes well and a few cities are taken, I am confident that I will hold on for a while until the army of Zu Ti crosses north.
