Chapter 828: The Battle of Seoul
Three days passed quickly, and there was no movement on Yan Pu's side, but Ma Chao had already led Ma Dai and more than 20,000 people to the city of Seoul.
"General Ma Chao, it's been hard all the way." When Guo Jia saw that Ma Chao was coming, he greeted him personally.
No matter what the result of the previous things was, it is natural that Ma Chao still needs to show a certain amount of attention.
"I'm ashamed to say it, if it weren't for the clever plan of the military advisor, I'm afraid that this Chen Cang would be difficult to overcome."
After Ma Chao saw Guo Jia coming, when he looked at Guo Jia and said, this time attacking Hanzhong, he originally thought it would be an easy thing.
I didn't expect to be stopped in Chen Cang for so long, and at this point, Ma Chao naturally felt very faceless.
"General Ma's words are wrong, this Chencang Pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and if it is not for the general to drag Zhang Lu's army, the battle in Nanzheng will be even greater."
Guo Jia looked at Ma Chao and said, for Ma Chao dragging another part of the Han sergeant in Chencang, Guo Jia can still understand the effect.
"Let's go, let's go see Your Majesty together, he has been waiting for the general for a long time."
After Ma Chao heard Guo Jia's words, he naturally wouldn't have any opinions.
He has already led the Xiliang Army here, so naturally he needs to see Liu Wei.
"The last general, Ma Chao has seen Your Majesty."
After entering the big tent, Ma Chao immediately watched Liu Wei clasp his fists and salute.
And Ma Dai on the side naturally followed Ma Chao to salute.
"No courtesy, get up, Meng Qi, you're finally here."
Liu Wei immediately got up, and then stepped forward to help Ma Chao and Ma Dai up.
"The last general is ashamed, the battle of Chen Cang has made His Majesty wait for a long time."
"Haha, this march and battle is unpredictable, what is there to be ashamed of, Meng Qi doesn't have to care." Liu Wei listened to Ma Chao's words and said with a smile.
"Now that the army is gathered in Seoul and take Hanzhong, there is only this last battle left, and if you take Seoul, Hanzhong can be determined."
"Your Majesty, in this battle, it is better to let the last general lead the Xiliang army to take the lead, and it will be determined that Your Majesty will take Hancheng and capture Zhang Lu."
After listening to Liu Wei's words, Ma Chao took the initiative to speak again.
For him, the battle of Chen Cang was too embarrassing, so he wanted to show his ability by attacking Seoul this time.
"Meng Qi, don't be anxious, this Seoul is the only place where Zhang Lu is guarding now, and he will definitely resist with all his might, so he can't go down for a while."
Liu Wei looked at Ma Chao and shook his head, refusing Ma Chao's request.
Ma Chao didn't seem to expect Liu Wei to refuse, he was stunned for a moment, "Your Majesty, could it be that you don't trust the last general, and you are afraid that Meng Qi will make a mistake?" ”
"If Your Majesty is so worried, the last general is willing to make a military order."
"The general's words are wrong, Your Majesty naturally trusts the general, and the reason why this is so is because Your Majesty wants to protect the general." Guo Jia said at this time.
"The general must not have forgotten that the rumors of Xiliang in the past are now difficult to capture in Seoul, and if the Xiliang army suffers heavy losses, there will be rumors again."
After listening to Guo Jia's words, Ma Chao quickly understood that if Ma Chao was allowed to attack Seoul, he would not take it.
At that time, it will inevitably be said that Liu Wei is taking their Xiliang Army as a sacrifice.
"What the military advisor said is naturally not unreasonable, but I, Ma Chao, believe in Your Majesty and don't care about such rumors."
After a while, Ma Chao thought about it and spoke again.
"Meng Qi, I naturally believe it, but people's words are terrifying, if the people of Xiliang are bewitched, wouldn't it be troublesome."
Liu Wei looked at Ma Chao and said.
"So after this meeting, if you attack Seoul, let me send someone to fight first."
Ma Chao saw that Liu Wei said this, so he naturally didn't say anything.
After all, what Liu Biao said is also reasonable, some things can be said inaccurately, in case there are many people who believe it, it is okay when there is nothing to do.
If something happens, it's even more troublesome.
"The last will obey." Ma Chao responded.
Then Liu Wei led the people in the direction of Seoul.
"The three-day period has come, go back and tell your lord, and say that I will ask him, to descend or not to descend?"
After coming to the city of Seoul, Liu Wei immediately looked at the direction of the head of Seoul and asked.
In fact, as a result, he had almost guessed that if Zhang Lu really planned to surrender, then he didn't have to wait until three days.
The generals at the head of the city saw that Liu Wei's army outside the city surrounded it again, and this time there were more people and horses than before.
Naturally, the general couldn't answer for Zhang Lu, so he immediately went to report to Zhang Lu again.
Zhang Lu was discussing with Zhang Wei at this time, and when he heard the news, he didn't react much.
After three days, Ma Chao's army also arrived, and Liu Wei would begin to force the city, which was also a normal thing.
"I see, I'll go myself." After Zhang Lu finished speaking, he got up and left his seat.
"Big brother, I'll go with you." Zhang Wei also spoke at this time.
Zhang Lu did not refuse, after all, Zhang Wei is his younger brother, so he is naturally trustworthy.
"General Yang Bai should also go with him."
In this way, the group went towards the head of Seoul, headed by Zhang Lu, and Zhang Wei and Yang Bai on the left and right.
"Zhang Lu, now that you are in a good position, if you are willing to surrender, you can still let the people of Seoul avoid a war, why not surrender early?"
After Liu Wei saw Zhang Lu appear in the city, he immediately opened his mouth and asked.
"Liu Wei, don't talk nonsense, if you didn't insist on attacking Hanzhong, how could the people of Hanzhong suffer from this war."
"Even if I, Zhang Wei, die, I can't surrender."
Before Zhang Lu could speak, Zhang Wei on the side was already scolding Liu Wei.
Liu Wei glanced at Zhang Wei, it turned out that he was that Zhang Lu's unlucky brother.
Liu Wei remembered that in history, Zhang Lu surrendered to Cao Cao, that is, after Zhang Wei died in Cao Cao's army.
"Yes, I, Zhang Lu, sit in Hanzhong, there is no merit and hard work, Your Majesty forcibly seized Hanzhong, how can I Zhang Lu be convinced." Zhang Lu looked at Liu Wei and also spoke.
"This Hanzhong is the land of the Han Dynasty, you just coincided with the troubled times, occupying Hanzhong, and now Your Majesty is coming to Hanzhong, but you don't know the current affairs, if you are willing to surrender, you can spare your life."
Guo Jia looked at Zhang Lu and refuted.
Since the Han Dynasty has not died, then this Hanzhong is naturally the place of the imperial court.
"In the troubled times, the capable live in it, since you want Hanzhong, then the siege is it."
Zhang Wei spoke again after listening to Guo Jia's words.
After Liu Wei heard this, he knew that it was impossible for Zhang Lu to surrender.
Since there is no possibility, then you can only speak with strength.
I have persisted in this road of reunification for more than ten years, and although I have not yet reached it, I will not give up just like that.
Liu Wei immediately ordered the siege of the city, although he knew that it was impossible to fight in one battle, but this was already an attitude.
With more than 40,000 troops, it is impossible to surround Seoul all the time, and with the military needs of Seoul, I am afraid that it can hold out for at least a year and a half, if this is the case, then it is impossible for tens of thousands of people to stalemate for a year and a half.
I definitely wouldn't do such a stupid thing.
The army began to siege the city, which lasted until the afternoon, when it withdrew and did not take Seoul.
But even so, such an attack, although Zhang Lu was in the city, he was still worried.
After all, he was defeated all the way, Hanzhong County, and now only Hancheng is left in his hands.
Liu Wei came victorious all the way, he was really worried, in case Liu Bian used any method to take Seoul, then it would really be over.
"The combat effectiveness of this Han army is really not bad, but I'm afraid that it will be very difficult to defend Seoul this time."
Although Zhang Wei had a somewhat impulsive temper, after the first battle, he also had some understanding of the combat effectiveness of Liu Wei's army.
"Yes, this army under Liu Wei is not bad in combat effectiveness, and this Xiliang army is all brave and good at fighting."
Zhang Lu said after listening to Zhang Wei's words, he had already realized this.
So when Zhang Wei said this, Zhang Lu also had a great sense of identity.
But soon, the next moment, Zhang Lu seemed to think of something, "I just hope that my mother's speed can be faster." ”
