Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info Chapter 72: (Huozhou Lost)

On October 27 of the first year of Hongguang, Liu Chao, the defender of Huozhou, raised his troops and surrendered to Wentai, and Su Tong in the city did not have time to react, so he was killed by the rebels and retreated all the way to Linzhou; After Murong Ba in Linzhou City learned the news, he closed the four gates tightly and did not let Su Tong enter the city, and the desperate Su Tong, under the advice of the deputy general, went all the way east along the official road and went to Anyang...

On this side, due to Huozhou's surrender without a fight, Murong Ba, who was cowering in Linzhou City, had to collect the remnants of the army everywhere, gather Linzhou, and on the one hand write to He Jing about the matter, and on the other hand, send people to Mengjin Pass for help...

Anyang, Taishou Mansion

"So far, Wentai has occupied half of the land of Bingzhou, the last city of Zhaodi, limited to the periphery of Linzhou, if Linzhou falls, Mengjin Pass will be exposed to the iron hooves of the Guanxi people, it is estimated that in less than half a month, you can reach Luoyang City..."

Listening to Huang Wei's report, Shangguan Yin Feng ate a piece of freshly roasted mutton with great interest, in his time, mutton was also a relatively high-grade food, and now, he wants to eat as much as he wants, and no matter how big the smell of sheep is: "In Kyushu in the world, the Tuoba clan has accounted for the second, and the land of Yongliang was originally bitter and cold, but in the past few years, under the governance of the Tuoba clan, it can also be regarded as some achievements, and now it occupies most of the land in the state, and it is helpless to come to Zhao Wanggong Sun Yan..." , Gongsun Yan is only a few years old, where does the distress come from? ”

"Hahaha..." As soon as these words came out, everyone else sitting in the hall laughed...

"Lord, now that Ouyang Min's army is outside the city, when will we fight them?" Jia Fu was a little eager to try, since he learned that Feng Yi had quelled the Qiang rebellion in the land of Beichuan, he seemed even more unable to sit still, and he made military merits in order to be promoted, which is the nature of a soldier...

Shangguan Yin Feng knows what these people mean in their hearts, but now he is also in internal and external difficulties, since he came to Anyang, his father-in-law, Anyang Taishou Murong Jin was injured in a battle with Ouyang Min, and since then he has been ill, this is one, the second is that he now has only 50,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, plus the original Murong Jin's team, there are only nearly 70,000 people, these 70,000 people can fight well, they can be called elite troops, and there are only about 20,000 people in his headquarters, the most important thing in fighting is to work together, once defeated on the battlefield, The defeated soldiers can even kill the main general, what the current Shangguan Yin Feng can do is to stick to Anyang, train new soldiers, and wait for the opportunity: "Don't be busy, what our army needs most now is to rest, after the first battle of Xingyang, our army suffered heavy losses, and now we have to get rid of it, it can be said that God helps me, the food in Anyang City is enough to last for a month, but Ouyang Min's army can't wait, Yuan Jingchu's army in the north has gone south to attack the land of Jizhou, Ouyang Qing in Jizhou City is anxious, it is estimated that it will not be half a month, and Ouyang Min will definitely return to the army to rescue, for the future..."

At this time, Qian Menglong, who had been sitting at the end of the hall, couldn't help shouting, and under everyone's gaze, he arched his hand to Shangguan Yin Feng and said respectfully: "Lord, there is one thing, the last general has to say..."

The etiquette in ancient times was very complicated, and the etiquette in the army was even more rigorous than in the court, and those who sat at the end of the hall were basically the smallest generals with official positions, so Qian Menglong could sit in it, and he could be regarded as a high-grade general, but, compared with Huang Weijiafu These generals, naturally he did not have the right to speak, Shangguan Yin Feng put down the dagger in his hand, looked at Qian Menglong with a smile and said: "Boldly say that listen to this king, now we are in the discussion, if you have any opinions and suggestions, do not keep it." , say it, let everyone refer to it together..."

After getting Shangguan Yin Feng's approval, Qian Menglong stood up and saluted Shangguan Yin Feng again: "Lord, at the moment Ouyang Qing can be described as an ant on a hot pot, he can't come and go, Yuan Jingchu's army went south to attack Jizhou, and we are looking at his rear, if our army forces Ouyang Qing to be in a hurry, I am afraid that he will surrender Yuan Jingchu, as far as the last general knows, Ouyang Qing is also a fierce general in addition to He Ying, and knows the affairs of various places in the pass, if it is used by Yuan Jingchu, I am afraid that it will be a big disaster for our army in the future, if the duel is on the battlefield in the future, I'm afraid that our army will not be able to reap any benefits, and will even pay a heavy price..."

"Presumptuous..."Huang Wei suddenly drank Qian Menglong's words, stood up and scolded: "The prince is powerful in the world, how can you worry about Ouyang Qing, Qian Menglong, you are talking nonsense here, but you are disturbing the morale of the army?" ”

"Huang Wei..."Shangguan Yin Feng knew that Huang Wei was patting on the back, but this set was a bit untimely for Shangguan Yin Feng, the current Shangguan Yin Feng needs to listen to advice, not sycophants, not to mention that Shangguan Yin Feng is in the stage of 'entrepreneurship': "In the future, without my permission, no one is allowed to interrupt the words of other generals, understand?" ”

"No..."Seeing Shangguan Yin Feng speak, all the generals replied respectfully...

Although Shangguan Yin Feng was angry, he also had to take care of their elders, if he scolded Huang Wei for the sake of Qian Menglong, a young general, it would make Jia Fu and the others mind, so he looked at the other generals under the account with a smile and said: "Qian Menglong's words are not unreasonable, this king also has a lot of opinions after hearing it, now Ouyang Qing is caught between us and Yuan Jingchu, if we put pressure on him, or attack strongly, it will be difficult to send Ouyang Qing into Yuan Jingchu's arms, This is the result that this king is most unwilling to see and the least wanted, so as long as our army maintains a defensive attitude and does not take the initiative to attack, for Ouyang Qing, it can be regarded as helping him..."

Shangguan Yin Feng's mind is probably only Qian Menglong can understand, the land of the world, who doesn't want it, if you want to win the world in the future, after all, there will be a battle with Yuan Jingchu, if you don't take precautions now, I am afraid that the situation will be aggravated in the future, this is also a strategy of Shangguan Yin Feng...

"My lord, there are frequent good news from Xichuan, what kind of situation should our army maintain on the Anyang side?" Jia Fu clasped his fists and saluted, looking at Shangguan Yin Feng thoughtfully, he didn't want to stay in Anyang like this and be robbed of the credit by Feng Yi...

Shangguan Yin Feng's strategy is very long-term, so he is not in a hurry, after all, he is very young: "Our soldiers and horses must be strictly trained, and the formations I taught you will be practiced over and over again, this king estimates that in less than a month, there will definitely be a decisive battle with Ouyang Qing..."

The formation in Shangguan Yin Feng's mouth is what he taught according to the Macedonian phalanx, in the ancient Roman period, the Macedonian phalanx was invincible on the European battlefield, which can be described as a killer weapon against the cavalry, and Yuan Jingchu's troops were also fierce cavalry, considering this, as soon as he arrived in Anyang, Shangguan Yin Feng immediately arranged for people to build a spear with a length of nearly five meters and a large shield according to his intentions, and selected strong sergeants in the army, and strictly drilled, the number of people was strictly required to be 8,000 people, and each phalanx was 1,000 people; The Macedonian phalanx must be in the plain area to fully function, which is also considering that the Hebei region is more plain, which is suitable for the formation of the Macedonian phalanx...

"No," all the generals agreed in unison...

"Lord Qi, the city gate is coming, Su Tong asks to see..."A school captain walked into the hall and saluted to Shangguan Yin Feng...

"Su Tong..."Shangguan Yin Feng stood up in surprise: "I only heard about Huozhou, I thought I was killed, I didn't think I would still be alive, hurry, put Su Tong in the city, please come to the mansion..."

"No..."

After a while, the captain led Su Tong, who was wearing blue-black armor and still had blood on his face, into the hall: "Lord, General Su brought..."

Shangguan Yin Feng stood up and walked to Su Tong's side, Su Tong immediately clasped his fists and saluted, saluted Shangguan Yin Feng in the march, knelt down on one knee and said: "The last general Su Tong, see the prince..."

Seeing this, Shangguan Yin Feng stretched out his hand to help Su Tong up and asked: "General Su has worked hard all the way, this king just heard about General Su, and after learning about it, he sighed, thinking that General Su was still fighting with this king, and he didn't feel very sad in his heart..."

Seeing this, Su Tong was a little excited, and he didn't think that Shangguan Yin Feng could still remember his father: "Thank you for what the prince thinks, although my father died, but he also died well, the last general did not lament, and he didn't want to have an accident in Huozhou, so the last general had to come to Anyang and ask the prince to take me in and wait..."

Seeing this, Shangguan Yin Feng pretended to reach out to help, and said in his mouth: "The rebellion of the Liu Dynasty is not surprising, now the Kansai Iron Cavalry is going all the way south, it can be described as a broken bamboo, in my opinion, even He Ying is personally in charge, I am afraid it will be difficult to turn the tide, today the general is willing to come to my place, this king naturally wants to take you, not to mention that the old general Su has fought side by side with this king, at this point, I Shangguan Yin Feng must also leave you..."

"Thank you, Lord Xie..."Su Tong knelt down again...

This time, Shangguan Yin Feng didn't reach out to help, the reason is very clear, since he has agreed to take him in, he Su Tong is a subordinate, as the boss, there is no reason to help him again, otherwise he will lose his majesty in front of the generals: "Su Tong, come to my Anyang this time, how many soldiers and horses do you still have?" ”

"Lord Qiqi, after the breakthrough of Huozhou, there are less than 2,000 people left in our department, and now they are all outside the city..."

"Su Tong, 2,000 people in your department will be retained, and from today, this king will make you a military captain, and you will be rewarded for meritorious service in the future..."

"Thank you, my lord..."
