Chapter 609: Why is it so difficult to fight a field battle
Soon after the Wei army occupied Guanzhong, Gao Yihuan took the main force out of Guanzhong, and he was still a little uneasy about the situation in Guanzhong.
Gao Yihuan had always worried that when he fought fiercely with Duoduo in southern Henan, the Qing army would take advantage of the superiority in strength to attack Guanzhong and recapture Guanzhong.
In the final analysis, there are a lot of wall grasses in Guanzhong, and the Wei army can easily occupy Guanzhong.
Similarly, once the Qing army entered Guanzhong, these wall-riding factions would inevitably become Manchu officials again.
Therefore, Gao Yihuan's strategy in Guanzhong was to keep the Qing army out of Guanzhong, and for this reason, he arranged heavy defenses in northern Shaanxi, Pujindu, and Tongguan.
Although there were a lot of preparations, Gao Yihuan was still a little uneasy, worried that the Qing army would attack Guanzhong from Hetao, Shanxi, and Tongguan, which would cause changes in Guanzhong.
This time, Gao Yihuan defeated Geng Zhongming in Shaanzhou and drove the Qing army outside Tongguan into Luoyang, so he was completely relieved.
Geng Zhongming's defeat was not only the loss of troops, but also the materials gathered in Shaanzhou, including the red-coated cannons used to attack the fortified positions.
In this way, even if Geng Zhongming still has some strength, he will not be able to pose a threat to Tongguan again in a short period of time.
At this time, the threats faced by Guanzhong were only Haoge in Hetao and Ye Chen in Shanxi, and the threat was immediately reduced, so Gao Yihuan didn't have to worry too much.
Defeating Geng Zhongming and Gao Yihuan's goal of getting out of Tongguan has been achieved for the most part, and as for capturing Luoyang, he is not in a hurry.
Although Luoyang is of great political significance, if it can be taken, it will be a good thing for the Wei army, but the time is obviously not ripe at the moment.
Not to mention that Geng Zhongming still has more than 10,000 elite soldiers in the city, and it takes time to fight, even if it is defeated, Gao Yihuan has no troops to defend, and once the Wei army occupies Luoyang, the Qing army will definitely have to fight repeatedly, and the war will be endless.
This is not in line with Gao Yihuan's strategy, so he besieged Luoyang for three days, covering Yuan Zongdi and Gao Yicheng's departure, the army immediately went south, broke the Longmen Pass, went to Ruzhou, passed through Jiaxian, and rushed directly to Xiangcheng, and then the army entered various important passes in Nanyang to deploy defenses, and replaced the Wei army in southern Henan, which had been fighting for many days, so that they could rest and replenish.
In the south of Xuzhou City, surrounded by a scorched black ruin, surrounded by military tents like graves, countless Qing soldiers and soldiers walked through it, and the voices of people and horses were neighing and noisy.
In a fairly intact courtyard in the village, Duoduo sat around with several of his subordinates eating meat.
Because Xuzhou and other places were dilapidated, the people were almost gone, so the Qing army did not get any food, and there was no boiled pig's head meat to eat.
However, when Duoduo entered the village, he shot a wild deer, and all the soldiers patted their horses and said that it was a good omen, which made Duoduo feel good, so he used the venison he brought to entertain the generals.
At the beginning of March, when the weather was getting warmer, Duoduo sat on the top of the bonfire with his blue scalp bare, dried a bowl of deer blood, and then put the bowl down, and said in a deep voice: "A few years ago, this king invaded Henan for the first time, and wanted to pull out Luoyang, and the troops entered Tongguan, but when the army attacked the Tiger Prison Pass, he was attacked by Gao Manzi in the rear, and burned all the grain and grass of the king, so that the king returned in vain. This time, the king will set up the army here, just waiting for Gao Yihuan to rob Xuzhou's grain, as long as he dares to come, the king and the horse army will press him, and he will definitely be called back. ”
Xuzhou is between Xiangcheng and Zhengzhou, the grain is too far away in Zhengzhou, and the tun is too close to the battlefield in Xiangcheng and is not very safe, so it was tuned in Xuzhou by the Qing army and sent nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses to defend.
"Lord Wang, will Gao Yihuan definitely come to Xuzhou?" Someone asked very ignorant of the current affairs.
But instead of getting angry, Duoduo sneered, "It's okay if you don't come. This king will fight steadily and eat Nanyang first. Now that Jin Shenghuan has been disabled by this king, Wu Shizhao is just fighting the trapped beast. If Gao Yihuan doesn't come, this king will be able to enter Nanyang in less than half a month. At that time, Gao Manzi's territory was cut in half by the king, and he lost Huguang's money and grain, even if he occupied Luoyang, he would not be able to survive this winter. ”
Duoduo said, paused, cut a piece of meat and put it in his mouth to chew, and continued after half a sound: "But this king believes that Gao Yihuan will not be so stupid and will go to fight the irrelevant Luoyang." His strength was not as good as that of his own king, and it was not beneficial for him to divide his troops to defend the city after the siege was lost. If Gao Manzi wants to win, he can only be surprised, so he will inevitably come to Xuzhou! ”
The Jin generals present saw that Duoduo was so sure, and most of them laughed, but some people still muttered in their hearts, last time the prince waited for Gao Yihuan in Yudong Zhangwang for a few months, and he also swore that Gao Yihuan would come to Yudong, but the result~
Of course, everyone is agreeing, and no one dares to mention it without opening their eyes, everyone is impressed by Duoduo's analysis, and the people who are more intelligent also flattered: "Lord Wang, if the high barbarian dares to come, our 60,000 horse army and 20,000 infantry army are ambushed near Xuzhou, and 10,000 horsemen will sweep over, and they will definitely be able to kill him without leaving a piece of armor." ”
Duoduo had a smile on his face, and he had a piece of meat cut and brought it to his mouth~
As everyone was talking, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and after a while, Shang Kexi was seen holding a horsewhip in one hand, hurriedly approaching, and pushed the hidden door open.
He pushed hard, and the broken gate creaked a few times, and fell directly inward into the courtyard, making a "bang" sound, and the dust was flying.
The dagger that Duoduo brought to his mouth was stunned, Shang Kexi also froze, and everyone's eyes turned to him, thinking that someone had come to the door.
"King Zhishun, what are you panicking about?" Dordor threw the dagger into the basin.
"The prince will return to his teacher, Gao Yihuan on Donkey Day will not come!" Shang Kexi reacted and hurriedly hugged his fists.
"What did you say?" Duoduo's face sank.
When many Qing generals heard this, their hearts were also cold, Gao Yihuan didn't come, what did that mean? The king of the county analyzed a lot just now, and he didn't finish the meal, so it was so difficult that he was slapped in the face again?
Shang Kexi said: "Lord Wang, the Xiangcheng camp came to report that it was attacked by the Wei army and suffered heavy casualties. In addition, Gao Yihuan has already played his big battle in Xiangcheng, and the soldiers and horses defending the city have also changed! “
"What?" Duoduo jumped up, and the table in front of him was kicked away by him, his whole face was gloomy and about to drip, and he roared with a hideous face: "Why, why didn't Gao Yihuan come to fight with this king?" “
Two days later, in the early morning, just after dawn, a group of horse troops galloped to the north of Xiangcheng.
The cavalry reined in the reins of their horses three miles away from the city, and Duoduo took out a clairvoyant mirror to look at the head of the city, and saw a large gilt inserted in the head of the city, fluttering defiantly.
At the head of the city, Gao Yihuan was inspecting the defense, and Wu Shizhao suddenly pointed outside the city, "Look, the king, Duoduo should be back in the distance." ”
Gao Yihuan raised his eyebrows when he heard this, walked to the wall, looked out of the city, and happened to see Duoduo and his party peeping at the city, and couldn't help laughing: "Duoduo is really in it, I'm afraid my lungs are exploding." ”
Gao Yihuan glanced at it, then waved his hand and said: "Ignore him, let's quickly strengthen the defense and familiarize ourselves with the city defense, Duoduo's guy will soon go crazy!" ”
Outside the city, Duoduo watched for a while, stared at Gao Yihuan's Daxu for a while, suddenly put down the clairvoyant mirror, and shouted angrily: "Shang Kexi, mobilize troops and horses, immediately attack the city, this king is going to skin Gao Yihuan alive!" ”
