Chapter 59: The Whale's Swallowing Stroke (2)

Chang'an is the old capital of the Han family, one of the five capitals of Wei thieves, and is the seat of Yongzhou, after the first emperors of the Han Dynasty, including Dong Zhuo, Li Dao, Zhong Xuan and other generations of people to build and repair, it is said that only around the city wall is eighty miles long, it is a well-known fortified city that never falls. Even if Qing defeated or drove away the Wei defenders to occupy Chang'an, it would already be a serious injury, so how could he talk about whether he could defend it? Liu Yong was well-organized and clear-minded, and began to point out the loopholes in Wei Yan's plan one by one.

"Even if Qing takes Chang'an, the army of the imperial court will not attack the strongholds and cities of Chencang, Wuzhangyuan, Wugong, and Fufeng, and will cross and attack Chang'an and Qing's division, but Qing has never thought that Chang'an will be shaken by the world, and the Wei thieves will be frightened and send 100,000 or even hundreds of thousands of troops to the eastern part of the country. And under the city of Chang'an is an endless plain, and there is no danger to defend at all. In a decisive battle with the main force of the Wei army in Chang'an, outnumbered, the king division will be defeated! ”

Liu Yong was blunt, and continued to pick out the failure of Wei Yanziwu Valley to pass through Chang'an, "Take 10,000 steps back, even if the Han army takes root in Chang'an and confronts the Wei army." However, once the Guanzhong area became a battlefield, both sides could not rely on the local supply of grain and grass, and the grain and grass of the Han army needed to be supplied from Hanzhong over the Qinling Mountains. The Wei army could completely rely on the water transportation of the Wei River to supply from the east of the river and the Central Plains, which was more convenient, following the example of Cao Cao's expedition to Ma Chao and Han Sui. The long grain route of the Han army from Hanzhong to Chang'an is likely to be attacked by the Wei army in the cities along the line, and the grain and grass baggage cannot be supplied to Chang'an at all. ”

"In Chang'an, the main force of the Han army fell into an isolated and helpless situation......"

"In this way, the Han army will not escape the fate of defeat, and the Wei army is already invincible." Liu Yong stared at Zhuge Liang and Wei Yan and shook his head.

Wei Yan and Zhuge Liang were silent, and what Liu Yong said was completely correct. Compared with the convenience of the Wei army being able to supply the Wei army fighting in Guanzhong from the Guandong along the Tantu Avenue and the Weishui water transportation of the Great River (Yellow River), the supply of the Han army can be described as difficult, Hanzhong is an empty shell at all, and the granary of the Han army is far away in Bashu!

And from Bashu to Hanzhong, the road is no less steep than Hanzhong to Guanzhong.

In the end, Liu Yong concluded: "Everything in Qing's plan is based on Qing's surprise attack on Chang'an, can Chang'an be taken, and after taking Chang'an, can the Han army resist the counterattack of the main force of the Wei army?" Excluding the Wei army east of Chang'an, this ...... It was too difficult, and the main force of the Han army went deep into the enemy territory alone, surrounded by enemy troops, it was easy to go, and it was ...... Hopeless! ”

Wei Yan frowned, the muscles on his face tightened a little, and said in a muffled voice: "Your Majesty's words are true, but there is no other way to survive in death......"

"No!" Liu Yong interrupted Wei Yan's speech and said proudly: "Qing's original intention is good, but after leaving the Meridian Valley, Qing should not attack Chang'an, but continue to travel east...... Take Tongguan directly! ”

Take Tongguan directly?!

Zhuge Liang and Wei Yan exclaimed in unison.

(After Hangu Pass was moved to Xin'an County through Guangguan when Emperor Wu, it had lost its role in blocking Guanzhong and being the gateway to Qinchuan, so in the first year of Jian'an, the Han Court built a new pass west of Hangu Pass - Tongguan)

"Not bad!" Liu Yong replied categorically and continued: "After General Wei leads the elite troops out of the Meridian Valley, he should give up Chang'an and immediately seize Tongguan from behind. Once Tongguan is taken, it will not only refuse the reinforcements of the Wei army outside the pass, but also cut off the connection between Wei and Tongguan, and the balance of the war will instantly tilt towards the Han army. ”

Once Tongguan was taken, the Han army quickly seized and blocked the Wuguan in the south and blocked the Pubanjin and other big river crossings in the north of the pass, preventing the Wei army from crossing the river east and heading south. In this way, the passage and connection between Guanzhong and Guanzhong were completely cut off, Guanzhong became a place of death, and a situation of closing the door and beating dogs was formed. ”

Liu Yong sneered and said: "At the same time, the main force of the Han army with overwhelming forces (only relative to the Wei army in Guanzhong) went out of the Xiegu Valley to attack all parts of Guanzhong, and joined up with the troops of the Meridian Valley as soon as possible, and held the Tongguan, Wuguan and other dangerous points. Then seize the entire Guanzhong and Liangzhou, and defend the enemy outside Tongguan. ”

"Once it is reached, the situation of the Han thief country and situation will be completely changed, and the revival of the Han family can be predicted!"

Silence, a long silence, the shocked look on the faces of Zhuge Liang and Wei Yan was beyond words, and in their eyes, there was nothing but surprise or surprise.

It's really a young man who is fearless, imaginative, daring to think and say anything.

Compared with Wei Yan's plan, Liu Yong's plan is more radical and ambitious, but it is also extremely profitable and less dangerous, which is a typical courageous strategy. Trying to use a small number of elite soldiers to raid Tongguan, and then swallow the entire Guanzhong and Longxi in one fell swoop, and achieve the wish of "returning to the old capital", it can be described as very courageous, really generous!

Even if the plan fails and Wei Yan fails to capture Tongguan, the main force of the Han army will not quickly reinforce Tongguan, and the loss is only Wei Yan's partial division.

Just as Zhuge Liang and Wei Yan were staring at the round eyes and digesting the huge amount of information in Liu Yong's words, Zhao Yun of the Central Protector Army came to report: "Your Majesty, the time has come!" ”

At that moment, Liu Yong turned around and instructed Zhao Yundao: "Zhao Qing, please start quickly." ”

At the beginning of the big competition at the end of the year, Zhuge Liang and Wei Yan Zhongran hit a thousand waves in their hearts, and thousands of words came to their mouths, so they had to stop talking, and their attention returned to the big competition.

"Whoa!" Zhao Yun, who was white-haired and old, suddenly agreed, strode backstage and waved his hand below, and the hundreds of trumpeters who were guarding the stage against the winter cold raised their horns one after another.

The next moment, the majestic and loud sound of the horn was already rushing into the sky.

In the west corner of the school field, Guan Xing is standing proudly and proudly in full armor, and beside Guan Xing, there are groups of cavalry warriors resting on the spot.

In an instant, a low and majestic trumpet sound was heard from the east.

Guan Xing immediately heard the sound and moved, a soldier had already led his war horse over, Guan Xing stepped on the stirrup on the horse, and then pulled out the horizontal knife and raised it high, and suddenly, the five hundred Han army knights who were originally sitting on the ground to rest got up one after another, and turned over on the horse at the fastest speed, and then shot out Leng Sensen's double-edged sword.

A faint aura of slaughter suddenly permeated the west corner of the school grounds.

Then, Guan Xing gently urged the war horse under his crotch, and then led the horizontal knife in his hand forward, and the five hundred elite horsemen urged the war horse under the crotch one after another, followed behind Guan Xing, and slowly walked out of the west corner of the school field.

On the platform, Liu Yong, Zhuge Liang and others raised their heads in unison and looked at the west side of the school field.

In an instant, a sturdy knight in full armor emerged from the west corner, and he was Guan Xing. Then came the second, third, fourth, and fifth............

The cavalry behind Guan Xing gathered more and more.

The horses' heads were stirred, the iron hooves were trampled, and the five hundred cavalry began to charge.

"Hah!"

When he was still eight hundred steps away from the point platform, Guan Xing raised his sword again and let out a long roar, and the cavalry queue that followed behind him suddenly changed formation.

The cavalry in front slowed down slightly, but the cavalry in the rear accelerated forward, and the entire cavalry formation began to spread rapidly towards the two wings.
