Chapter 303: Conquering Wuwei

When Cheng Yuan and Yujuluo arrived at the grassland, they met Suo Yanshou who came to answer, and asked about the Wuwei war, Li Liang's general Li Yun was defeated and captured in Panhe, and the three counties of Changsong, Panhe and Yunwu fell within two days, and now the army has surrounded Wuwei County to govern Guzang. Suo Yanshou said with a smile: "The chief manager said that there is no point in attacking the seven cities of Guzang, and it is necessary to surrender the army without a fight." I heard that Li Liang had sent messengers to Guo Rong and Shibi Khan to ask for help, so I came to the grassland to investigate. ”

Yuju Luo said: "Yang Chong wants to besiege the city for reinforcements, it is false to capture Wuwei, and it is true to capture the three counties of Xiping, Jincheng and Caohan. ”

Suo Yanshou said at a glance: "It's amazing." You are Yujuluo, Chief Yang can say, if you defeat Jincheng, you will be the county guard of Jincheng and the governor of Longyou. ”

Yu Jinyi asked curiously, "How do you know?" ”

Cheng Yuan smiled and introduced: "Don't look at General Suo as a Turkic, he is the apprentice of Louguan Dao Feng Qiquan, the nephew of General Manager Yang, and his confidant and favorite general. ”

Mai Zhong arranged the team and came over to salute Yu Juluo, and learned that Mai Zhong was Suo Yanshou's deputy general, Yu Juluo smiled and said: "Your kid is better than my son, tell me, why did you follow Yang Chong?" ”

Mai Zhongcai thought for a while and said: "Mr. Yang is a good manager, he has the grace of knowing me, and who can tell me the situation in the world, I do this to leave a way for the family." ”

Yu Juluo sighed with emotion: "The iron rod is more blessed than me." I'm here, and we'll do it together in the future. ”

Yu Jinyi said aggrievedly: "Dad, I don't talk like you like this, if you want to talk about martial arts, I'm no worse than Mai Zhongcai." ”

Everyone laughed, and Yu Juluo patted Yu Jinyi's shoulder and said: "The most important thing in the battlefield is not martial arts, but resourcefulness. ”

All the way over Helan Mountain, the Turks did not move, but the scouts instead captured one of Li Rail's messengers, Li Rail wrote in the letter that he was willing to raise the city to submit to the Turks, Yujuluo and Cheng Yuan high-fived each other, and Wu Wei took it. When he arrived in Changsong County, Yu Juluo unexpectedly saw Yu Wenkai standing next to Yang Chong, with a slender figure, bright eyes, and a much better complexion than when he was in the center, Yu Juluo smiled heartily: "Are you really preparing to rebel?" ”

Yang Chong saluted Yu Juluo as a backward and said: "General Yu can go to Hexi, which is a blessing for the people of Hexi, Yang Chong is very grateful." ”

Yu Juluo waved his hand and said: "Yang Chong, you and I have reached this point, no need to be polite, I just want to ask you, what to do in the Western Regions, what to do in Hexi, what to do in Longyou?" ”

Obviously, Yu Juluo wanted to understand Yang Chong's overall plan to see if he was sure of success; Yang Chong stood solemnly and said: "The Western Regions is just one word, Hexi is the foundation of my life, I will build this area into a rich land, and eliminate the disobedient people in the territory; As for Longyou, they are encroaching one by one, step by step. ”

Yu Juluo groaned: "The Western Regions focus on Gaochang, you have worked hard for two years, even Yu Zhongwen can't help it, not to mention that he still has a thorn in his heart of the Son of Heaven, etc. is the best means." You have a little stone into gold, and it is not a problem to build Hexi; The key is Longyou, if you defeat Wuwei County, how will the whole army of Longyou attack, even if there is a big chaos in Guanzhong, it will be calmed down in a few months at most, and the Maitreya Sect is by no means the opponent of the government army. ”

Yang Chongfeng said lightly: "As long as the Son of Heaven pacifies Jiangnan and Yang Xuangan, he will definitely conquer Goguryeo for the third time, Chang'an can recruit a limited number of troops, and now the war is a chance of victory; When the war in Goguryeo is over, I don't need to move, Shibi Khan will move first, and the turmoil in Yanshan and Hebei cannot have anything to do with the Turks and local wealthy families, and they will not let the Holy Son of Heaven have a chance to settle accounts. Therefore, the center is still beyond my reach, what I have to do is to build a high wall and accumulate grain, and wait for the results of the Central Plains. ”

Yu Juluo nodded and asked, "If Shibi Khan comes to help Li Rail, will you withdraw your troops?" ”

Yang Chong sneered: "I promised to give out two thousand sets of armor and let Dubi prevent Shibi Khan from sending troops, so the Turkic side has been hesitating and arguing. As long as Wuwei City is captured by us, the Turks will give up the idea of sending troops; Two days ago, Guo Rong sent troops from Jincheng to help, but was defeated by Shan Xiongxin in the wilderness in front, killing 2,000 and capturing more than 6,000 people. ”

In an instant, Yu Juluo saw the shadow of Yang Chong's hero, and asked, "Are you planning to attack Jincheng later?" ”

Yang Chong shook his head and said: "I can't fight Jincheng this time, I bought the horse thief Zong Luohu from Helan Mountain, and asked him to gather more than 2,000 horse thieves from all walks of life to attack the transportation team from Caohan to Jincheng, weakening Jincheng's combat power." I also prepared a big meal for Guo Rong, the siege of Wuwei, he can be puzzled; But the survival of Xiping County, Guo Rong can't ignore it, Xie Yingdeng and Ma Delai are attacking Xiping County. ”

Yu Juluo is a master of the art of war, and immediately understood Yang Chong's intention, which was to completely destroy the confidence of Jincheng through successive blows; Yu Juluo breathed a long sigh of relief, it was obvious that Yang Chong did not intend to rush to success, he had time to understand the situation, adjust his state, and then decide whether to join Yang Chong's camp. In a settled mood, Yu Juluo casually asked about Yang Chong's injury, and learned that Shuai Guozhen had lost his internal strength to Yang Chong, Yu Juluo laughed and said: "You are not satisfied with this favor for a lifetime." ”

Yang Chong spread his hands and said: "Sometimes I don't know what to do, every once in a while, there will be a feeling of swelling of the acupoints, and Zhang Guolao wants me to drink snake blood and practice martial arts desperately." ”

Kou Jiuhui interjected with a smile: "Master is not good for you, at least you can now draw a bow and shoot arrows and dance a horse lance." ”

Everyone laughed, Yang Chongtian was as busy as a spinning top, and the force value was just like that, always talking more than nothing.

The fourth battalion of Tianjian followed Xie Yingdeng out of the division, dug tunnels overnight, and blew up many places on the city wall of Huangshui County at noon the next day, and Xiping County failed to hold out until three days before the county fell; On the next five days, all the six forts of Huangshui fell, and Hualong County asked Taohe County and Jincheng County for help. Suo Yanshou and Luo Shixin once again marched east to Jincheng County, and in one fell swoop defeated the reinforcements sent by Guo Rong to Hualong County, killing more than 1,000 people and capturing 3,000 people.

Yang Chong just asked people to shoot arrows every day to persuade him to surrender, saying that as long as Li Rail killed An Xiuren and offered the city, he could not blame the past and still appoint Li Rail as the county guard of Wuwei. An family first lived in Anguo, from the Later Wei period Ananda began to live in Liangzhou, for the Wuwei prestige, An Xiuren's father An Luo, was the Northern Zhou Dynasty Kaifu Yitong three divisions, Sui Shizhou Thorn History, Guixiang County Founding Prince; The eldest brother An Xinggui took over as the founding prince of Guixiang County, and he is currently in Jincheng, and the An family is the rope that Li Liang connects Chang'an and Jincheng.

Li Liang did not open the city until he died, and Yang Chong was not in a hurry, he kept negotiating with Guo Rong, and finally negotiated that Yang Chong would release the prisoners, return Xiping County, and let An Jia leave Wuwei; Guo Rong arranged to call An Xiuren to dedicate the city. As expected, Guo Rong had already had a plan to attack Wuwei, and on the second day after Yang Chong sent a letter to condemn Li Rail for betraying Wuwei and defecting to the Turks, An Xinggui sent by Guo Rong released a signal, An Xiuren and Li Yun's subordinates all rebelled, and one by one the city gates were opened, and Wei Wentong, Gan Bao, and Ma Gongyou entered the city in three ways.
