Chapter 266: Turn
On the side of the Guanzhong Coalition Army, Li Dao and the others were still difficult, and the Xia Army on the opposite side was still as stable as a rock, which was extremely depressing.
"Report to the generals! The Xia army had more than 10,000 steps to ride out of the camp and go north! "In broad daylight, I was entangled with myself, and a soldier came to report.
Finally got Xia Jun's movement, Li Dao and the others glanced at each other: "What does Xia Jun want to do?" ”
There was a noisy discussion, Li Dao frowned, as if he had gained, but it was vague and not very clear.
"Isn't Xia Junmo going to cross the river from Pusaka through the east of the river?" Finally, someone thought of Jia Xu and said.
"It must be so!" Li Wei's eyes lit up, and he immediately smiled: "This general sent Li Li and Li Xian to lead the army to garrison, Xia Jun's action is a little late!" There are 4,000 soldiers in Pusaka, and they are far from the ferry, which is enough to block the Xia army, and they should be safe. Look at how Liu Yuan will react when he learns the news of Pusaka, it is estimated that he will be furious! Pusaka has been dealt with by us, let's see what else Xia Jun can do! ”
In his opinion, Xia Jun's actions at this time must not be able to catch up with the Li Li brothers. After that, he glanced at the generals with some pride, after all, he was the only one who decisively sent troops to defend Pusaka.
"Thanks to Jia Shangshu's reminder!" I couldn't see Li Wei's expression, Guo Yan added.
"That's true!" Fan Chou immediately responded.
Li Wei's face was slightly gloomy, but he quickly smiled: "Jia Xu's suggestion is meritorious, come here, send some fine wine and minced meat to Jia Wenhe's tent!" ”
It didn't take easy long, and early in the morning of the second day, Li Li's defeated army returned, which made Li Dao and the others unable to laugh.
"The Xia army has already sent troops to occupy the west bank of the Pusaka Ferry?" Li Dao was a little out of his voice. The generals in the tent also shook their bodies and sank in their hearts.
Li Li dressed himself a little miserable and embarrassed, and there was some blood on his face, and he choked up in a choked voice: "When I led the army with Brother Siam to the Puban Ferry, the Xia army had already set up camp, and the two of us fought hard to recapture it. was defeated by the Xia army, lost his troops, and his brother was also killed. Uncle, I want to avenge my brother! Li Li kowtowed a few times.
Seeing Li Li's appearance, Li Dao, who was originally angry in his heart, somehow came out, stared at him fiercely, and waved his hand: "What are you crying about, it's embarrassing." Get out of here and heal your wounds! ”
Distraught, he walked back and forth in the tent a few times, kicked over the small case, and said loudly: "Everyone, the Xia army is treacherous, crossing the river through Pusaka, our army is in danger!" There is no room for loss in Kasaka, the north cannot be ignored, and we must immediately send a large army north to retake it! ”
"The Xia army rode a large army, and went north yesterday, and if you send an army at this time, you are afraid that you will have already crossed the river!" Guo Yan retorted.
"Because of this, we need to go north with heavy troops and drive him out of Zuo Fengyi. Otherwise, our soldiers will be stationed here, and the pass will be empty, let it invade, and the back road will be cut off, and we will perish here! Seeing that Guo Yan was still going to compete with himself, he scolded secretly, Li Wei was a little angry, and said loudly: "No matter what, we must send troops north!" ”
Li Wei's remarks attracted the approval of many warlords present, and at this time, no matter how reckless people are, they all perceive the danger and don't know what to do. Li Dao took the lead and responded, and there were many people who echoed it.
At this time, Guo Yan also got up: "I thought that it was too late to go north to Pubanjin. On the contrary, the Xia army outside the camp thinned out so many troops and went north, and the strength in its battalion was bound to be greatly reduced. If we gather our forces and go east with all our strength to break the Hongnong Xia army, the Xia army in the north will not be enough! ”
Guo Yan's words have expanded another line of thought for the generals in the account, and many people agree.
"What if it can't be breached? was copied by the Xia army in the north, and we all died without a place to be buried! Li Dao said coldly.
Guo Yan seemed to feel that his proposal was very good, and when he saw that some people agreed, he was a lot more confident, pointed to the east, and looked directly at Li Dao: "Hongnong is only twenty or thirty thousand people at most, and Liu Yuan, the king of Xia, is there, if we go all out to attack, break the summer camp, and kill Liu Yuan, the Xia army will inevitably collapse, and the crisis in Guanzhong will be solved!" Why bother going all the way to deal with the Xia Guo's partial division who has already crossed the river! ”
Li Dao and Guo Yan are completely opposite, each holding their own opinions and arguing endlessly. For the first time, many people found out that the two of them had such "eloquence".
In the end, there was a result. Since each has its own ideas, let's go their own way. Li Dao received the support of Li Meng and other generals, led nearly 40,000 troops, and went north. Guo Yan had Fan Chou, Wang Fang and others to help, and he joined forces of 50,000 troops to go east, wanting to break the Xia army in front of him with all his might.
This time, the Guanzhong coalition army moved quickly and ordered troops out. As for the camp, only Duan Xuan led the headquarters to hold on, as a backup.
"Uncle! Why lament? In the camp, there was a lot of emptiness, and Duan Ling, who had completely recovered from his injuries, looked at Duan Xuan with a sad face with some puzzlement.
"Something is wrong!" Duan Xuan shook his head: "At this critical moment, you can go all out to the north or out of the east, but Li, Guo and the others are not aligned, and they care about both ends, but they are afraid that they will not be able to please them." These days, the coalition army has consumed a lot, there is not much food in the army, and there is civil unrest in Guanzhong, I have a hunch that Guanzhong is really going to fall into the hands of the Xia army. Liu Yuan has been confronting us for so long, I'm afraid that we are waiting for such a situation, and as soon as I make a move, I will be in such a dilemma! ”
sighed heavily: "You lead the team to inspect the outer camp, you must not relax, and stare at the situation over there over there." Let's hope they can crush the enemy, or ......"
Liu Yuan's side quickly got the resolution of the generals in Guanzhong, and seeing that Guo Yan and others were going to attack, he was not worried but happy. The other side found a loophole in his plan, if the thieves in Guanzhong will leave some soldiers and horses to guard the pass, and go all out to deal with the river crossing division, then it may be difficult for the Guanzhong side to make too much progress. And on his side, I'm afraid he will really be completely blocked from Huayin.
Originally, he was still thinking about whether the enemy forces on the left and right had been attracted to the east, whether to retreat north to the east of the river, and the whole army crossed the river from Pusaka, entered Guanzhong, and then fought with him. Here, Li, Guo and others gave him a surprise.
"God help the lonely also!" With a shout of excitement, he quickly ordered the generals in the camp to shrink the camp and hold the camp tightly. With the same routine, the nearly 10,000 iron horses that were still in his hands were scattered, and Guo Yanjun was restrained and pulled from the side from behind.
More than 20,000 foot soldiers abandoned several camps on the periphery and defended the strongest Chinese army camps. Guo Yan and others, seeing that the Xia army was moving back, became even more arrogant, and took advantage of the situation to launch a fierce attack and hit a full head. They were not fully prepared for the attack, and they attacked for a long time, but there was no result.
On the contrary, it is Xia Jun's side, the more he defends, the more stable the block, and the more he defends, the lighter the pressure. There is an unbreakable wall of the Xia army camp in front, and the iron cavalry of the Xia army is not very disturbed, and the cavalry under his command is sent to deal with it, but it is hit by several waves of opportunities and suffers heavy losses. On the Xia army's side, from time to time, Liu Yuan sent the guards and the beggar army to launch a wave of counter-charges to suppress Guo Yan's arrogance.
After attacking for two days in a row and suffering heavy losses, Guo Yan had no choice but to return to the army.
To the north, Li Dao did not make much progress. After several days of marching, it took a lot of time to cross north to the vicinity of Kasaka. Sure enough, the Xia army's partial division has been fully crossed, Liu Yuan ordered Tan Zhe, Lu Bu, and Zhang Ji to lead the cavalry army of 12,000 to the north, and this time Xu Bu Chiyi personally went out to gather 3,000 soldiers in the east of the river, and crossed the river under Xu Huang's response.
To the west occupied the county seat of Linjin, led more than 10,000 foot soldiers to garrison the city, and sent Tan Zhe and Lu Bu to lead all the cavalry and go west to Chang'an. At this time, Guanzhong was empty, and the Xia army of nearly 10,000 cavalry troops was ravaged, and there was no power to fight back.
Li Wei's attack on Linjin failed, and the battle of ****** in the south returned to China, and with the Xia army crossing Pusaka to the north, it ushered in a turning point. The situation fell to Xia Jun.
