Chapter 609: Zhang Yi returns
(88106 .) As Lao Qin sent troops to Hangu and occupied the heavy city of Luoyin, the Chinese army and the right army were in full swing with the enemies of Wei, but the right army led by Lin Yuyan was still in the area from Huaide to Yinjin, and launched an encirclement and suppression of the local Rongdi tribe.
For Lao Qin, the military exploits of the Rong Di tribe can be said to be minimal, with Lao Qin breaking through the Dog Rong Royal Court and turning the land of Rong Di into Lao Qin County, the combat exploits brought by the heads of the three Rong Di warriors may not be as good as the heads of Wei soldiers in the Hexi battlefield!
However, the right army was in Huaide for three months to encircle and suppress the Rongdi tribe, during which the good news about the left army and the Chinese army also kept coming, and the right soldiers who were fighting with Rongdi were now eager to rush to the Hexi battlefield.
"Report, the center-left coalition army, occupied Luoyin for less than three days, it crossed the frustrated water, and directly captured the heavy city of Hexi in Wei, Yuanli!"
The location of Yuanli is already close to the Hexi area of Hexi County, because the land is flat, plus there are many rivers, the number of Wei people here is by no means a few, and a Yuanli is Wanhuyi, which is an important grain producing area of Hexi County.
Occupying this place means that the grain saved in Yuanli alone is enough for the Chinese army and the left army to rest for more than half a year, and occupying Yuanli also means that the battle of the old Qin and Wei has completely grasped the initiative.
After more than half a month, the Chinese army was very fast, starting from Yuanli, and gradually occupied the two cities of Duping and Heyang in the northeast of Yuanli, and the right army led by Prince Yingyan himself, led by Gongsun Yan as the former general, led 30,000 soldiers, deviated from the original route, and appeared a few days later near Shaoliang, another heavy city in the west of the Wei River.
Gongsun Yan used strange soldiers to capture Shaoliang City overnight.
If so, Wei's Hexi Army had already assembled east of the Great River in Hexi County, and it is no wonder that although Hexi County was named "Hexi County", its rich core area was still on the east bank of the Great River.
Especially after Wei moved the capital to Daliang from Anyi, Wei's defense of Hexi was slack, and the battle of Lao Qin against Wei did not issue a letter to the princes of the Central Plains, and it was still a brazen mobilization, a few months ago, Hexi County of Wei and Lao Qin were still prosperous in an endless stream of business and travel.
Who knows, this is just an illusion that Gongsun Martingale can create in order to cover up his brazen use of troops!
Wei connected Longgu to the west bank of the big river in Hexi County, Hangu, Luoyi, and Yuanli...... Even Shaoliang lost one after another, he was also shocked, over the years, Longgu has not ignored the old Qin people, when he heard that the old Qin people were fighting with the Rong people in Longdi, Longgu also received the news.
However, what Long Gu obviously didn't expect was that Lao Qin would recover from the battle of defeating Rong Di so quickly.
You must know that the consumption of national strength in the battle is also amazingly terrible, the accumulation of several years in the past can only stop the consumption of a year's war, and the foundation of the old Qin people is already weak, how can they launch a war against Wei so quickly.
Ryugu is underestimated!
However, most of Wei's operations in Hexi were in the east of the river, and even if the old Qin people made a fuss west of the river, the Hexi army was always able to recover.
Therefore, a general order was issued by Longgu, and the entire army of Hexi was gathered, among which in addition to the arrangement in Hexi, there were also 50,000 Hexi troops who were summoned by Longgu.
In the past, the usual soldiers, and even conscription, were also incorporated into the ranks of Longgu, and if so, Longgu gathered 200,000 soldiers and horses in Anyi and killed them to the west of the river, intending to start a big battle with the old Qin army in the land of Pangfan.
Wei State operated Hexi for a long time, naturally built a bridge on the important straight road of this granary, Shaoliang to the north, it is two heavy cities, close to the river is Pang City, Wei State once summoned a group of skilled craftsmen to take advantage of the topography of Pang City, built a bridge across the big river, so that if Pang City is lost, Lao Qin's large number of cavalry will drive straight to the east of the big river!
However, after the battle of Lao Qin Shaoliang, it seems to be steady, and there is no war against the land of Pangfan, and it seems to be waiting for the arrival of the Hexi army led by Longgu.
Regarding the result of the battle of Pang Fan, it was brought to Lin Yuyan by Lin Yuyan's old acquaintance, Zhang Yi, who had just returned from Zhao State.
Zhang Yi set out in December of the winter year, and it was not until May that he could return, and the first person to meet was naturally the minister of the state Gongsun Ying, who presided over the battle of Wei by Lao Qin, and only stayed in Shaoliang City for one day, that is, he accepted Gongsun Ying's order again, and came to the Huaide camp where the right army was located.
When Zhang Yi came to Huaide, the battle of Pang Fan had come to an end, and in this battle, Gongsun Ying sacrificed his own improved chariot, Lao Qin's new chariot was indeed improved a lot, and the combat effectiveness was greatly increased.
The understanding of the old Qin people in Hexi County of Wei was only limited to more than ten years ago, and the general military formation method of Rong Di was the same, so the sword and shield soldiers were used as the vanguard to resist the old Qin army, and they tried several times, and it was effective, so they fought repeatedly, that is, with the sword and shield soldiers as the main force, and the old Qin short soldiers were handed over to fight.
Pang Fan's terrain was flat, and Gongsun Ying seized Fancheng in the west with the division of the prince Ying, and the commander of Hexi County, Longgu, really sent a large army to support Fancheng, during which he was defeated by the new chariot hidden in the old Qin army.
In the battle of Pang Fan, Lao Qin added up to a total of 60,000 soldiers of the Wei State!
Forced the lord of Hexi County, Long Gu, to give up his garrison of Pangcheng and withdraw his troops to return to Fenyin on the east bank of the river, and it was a fire that burned the bridge across the river in Pangcheng!
When Zhang Yi gave this battle report to Lin Yuyan one by one, he was also full of anger, and seemed to be happy that Lao Qin's new army could have such combat power.
In the end, Zhang Yi also smiled and said: "I think the news of coming to Hexi has already reached the Great Liang City of Wei State, and I don't know what kind of face the King of Wei and those meat eaters of Wei State are......"
Lin Yuyan changed his words and asked Zhang Yi: "Seeing Zhang Zi's look, it seems that the strategy of breaking up relations with Han Zhao has been completed!" ”
"God help Lao Qin!" Zhang Yi also nodded heavily, and immediately told Lin Yuyan truthfully: "Korea is now afraid of the threat of Southern Qin, and even the southern Chu State, which is also to weaken the national strength of the Wei State, Zhang Yi has already persuaded the King of Han and the important ministers above the Korean court with his three-inch incorruptible tongue!" ”
"As for the ...... of Zhao State" Zhang Yi's expression paused, and then said: "Recently, the Hu people in the north have been in turmoil, violating the borders of Zhuxia, a certain view of the Zhao State, its domestic customs have changed, and the military affairs follow the Hu people, although it is said that the soldiers are strong and strong, but the threat of the Hu people in the north is no longer a small number, and the Zhao State is now riding and shooting in Hu clothes, preparing for the Hu people, and it will definitely not participate in ......the battle between Lao Qin and Wei."
In the end, Zhang Yi turned his head, looked at Lin Yuyan, and asked: "If today's time and place are favorable, all of them are in Lao Qin, and the minister of state sent a certain general Gongzi Yan, when will he send troops?" ”
"Prime Minister Gongsun has already promised to attack Anyi?" Lin Yuyan also asked rhetorically.
Hearing this, Zhang Yi nodded, and lowered his voice a little to avoid whispering from the wall: "Now the troops in Hexi are all stationed on the east bank of the big rivers such as Fenyin and Pishi, as Gongzi Yan said, this is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!" ”
Speaking of this, Zhang Yi's tone was also sluggish, and Fang Cai said: "It's just that Gongsun Guoxiang needs to make it clear in advance that there are not a few casualties in the successive battles between the Chinese army and the left army, and the capture of Anyi is handed over to the right army to complete alone, and the Chinese army and the left army can only contain the main force of Hexi County for Gongziyan for a few more days......"
"This is a natural ......" Lin Yuyan looked at Zhang Yi and nodded in response.
Seeing Gongziyan so calm, Zhang Yi was also a little surprised, and immediately confirmed: "Even if the main force of the Hexi army is outside, then, Anyi is the former capital of the Wei State, and there are still more than 20,000 Wei Wu soldiers, and in addition, the private soldiers raised by the old clans of the Wei State are by no means a few......
Hearing this, Lin Yuyan stretched out his hand and gradually pushed the letter on the table to Zhang Yi's face: "Knowing yourself and knowing that you are invincible, a few months ago, these news about Anyi were already presented in front of my case. ”
Zhang Yi took the bamboo slip and took a closer look, Fang Cai arched his hand to Lin Yuyan and said: "If you can capture Anyi, in terms of the national enmity that Wei brought to Lao Qin in the Battle of Hexi, it will be a tooth for a tooth, and blood for blood!" ”
"Zhang Yi, here I wish Gongzi Yan to take Anyi, return with great victory, and make this immortal achievement for the old Qin people!"
