Just when Ban led his soldiers to defend desperately, Liu He was secretly planning to attack Chang'an. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

On the night of the third day after Liu He arrived at Bashang, the 30,000 troops under his command had quietly come to Chang'an City and surrounded Chang'an City from the east, south, and west.

This time Liu He adopted the military "encirclement of three queyi" means, generally there is no strength to wipe out the defenders or to reduce casualties and means, in fact, it does not mean that Liu He's army does not have the strength to wipe out the Chang'an defenders, the main thing is that the city is surrounded on all sides for the current Liu He Some disadvantages outweigh advantages.

Because the encirclement on all sides will cause the defenders to panic, which will lead to those defenders loyal to Li Dao and Guo Yan to kidnap the Son of Heaven and the Hundred Officials and Ministers under the dog jumping over the wall, which will make Liu He fall into a passive situation because of the rat trap, plus Li Dao and Guo Yan's army is close to Ba, which will make the defenders strengthen their confidence, defend Chang'an, and wait for reinforcements.

Therefore, if you want to occupy Chang'an, you must be fast, even if someone is in harmony with you inside and outside, you must move like thunder, complete the occupation before the enemy army on the Ba reacts, and quickly deploy defenses, successfully attract the attention of Li Wei's army, let Li Wei's army attack Chang'an, and then attack back and forth with the 20,000 defenders on Ba, and break the Xiliang army together.

"Lord, according to the news of Chong Shao and others, we are asked to wait outside the Yongmen on the north side of the west city wall during the third watch, but now that it has reached the third watch, why hasn't the city gate been opened yet? Could it be that something was wrong? ”

Zhou Cang quietly came to Liu He, looked at the tall city wall in front of him, and said with a worried face.

"Hehe, Zhou Cang, you don't have to worry, just wait patiently, after all, Chang'an still has the cooperation of Yang Feng's army, I believe that they will open the city gate soon."

In fact, Liu He also had a trace of worry in his heart, after all, this Yang Feng was not a strong-willed person, and in addition to Chong Shao, Ma Yu, Liu Fan and others, the Son of Heaven and other hundred officials were also controlled in Li Dao Guo Yan's military camp, plus Lu Fan and Jia Xu were taken to Ba Shang by Li Dao Guo Yan to participate in the battle, and there was no one in charge in the city, so as long as Yang Feng turned against the water, the attempt to attack Chang'an would immediately turn into water.

However, Liu He will not tell Zhou Cang about these worries, not to mention that Liu He is not without countermeasures, once the worries really become a reality and he cannot attack Chang'an, he will immediately lead his army to attack the main forces of Li Dao and Guo Yan from behind, so that although he failed to capture Chang'an, it is only a matter of time before he also enters Chang'an.

It's just that the situation is changing, so I don't know who Chang'an will be, if this time I spend so much manpower and material resources, but in the end I marry someone and give Chang'an away, then this fun will be great.

As time passed, the patience of Liu He and his soldiers was worn out little by little.

"Lord, it's nearly four shifts, why haven't they come yet? Could it really be that something happened? ”

Zhou Cang finally couldn't help it and whispered to Liu He.

Liu He's complexion was also ugly, and at the same time, Guo Jia and Xun You were also unsightly, because they had already expected that this time they would be exposed.

"Lord, why don't we lead our troops to Bashang, presumably a sneak attack on the camp of Li Dao's army at this time can also make us gain a lot of money." Guo Jia sighed secretly and whispered.

But at this moment, the sound of killing suddenly came from the city that was only a door away.

Everyone was in high spirits, which at least proved that someone had begun to figure out how to deal with them, so they all stared at the city gate, waiting for it to be opened.

In fact, Zhou Cang's crow's mouth worked, when they were about to start an operation, the secret was leaked, it turned out that a pro-soldier around Chong Shao and a pro-soldier under Li Li were cousins, and the pro-soldier was worried about his cousin's life after hearing the news, so he came to his cousin overnight, and wanted to pull his cousin away, but he didn't expect this cousin to be loyal to Li Li, and immediately reported the news to Li Li, Li Li happened to not rest, and immediately ordered Chong Shao and others to be captured, and killed on the spot.

However, Li Li did not expect that his action of leading the army to capture and kill Chong Shao and others alarmed Shangshu Pei Mao.

In fact, after Pei Mao heard the news, in addition to feeling worried and nervous in his heart, he didn't come up with any ideas.

But at this moment, Pei Mao's eldest son Pei Qian suddenly said categorically: "Father, so far, we have nothing to hesitate about, immediately order the generals, slaves, nurses and others, and take advantage of Li Li's sergeant before he comes, take Yongmen first, fortunately, we live in the west of the city, closest to the west gate, as long as everyone fights hard, there is still hope of survival." ”

"But if we don't succeed, I'm afraid we will have the disaster of extermination......" Pei Mao still hesitated.

But I saw Pei Qian said: "Life and death are always fighting, the opportunity is fleeting, we can't sit still, father, you must know that if they are captured, they may not involve us out, and we will still die at that time, and if we fight now, there is still a glimmer of life!" ”

"This ......" Pei Mao thought for a moment, saw that his son's attitude was so firm, and finally nodded and said: "It's okay, since that's the case, then listen to you, all the personnel in my father are at your disposal, whether it's life or death, it's all here!" ”

Pei Qian nodded and agreed, and then summoned a total of two or three hundred people in the house, including the generals, guards, family members, and slaves, and impassionedly mobilized them, and issued them weapons, and those who really had no weapons took sticks, hoes, etc., and then said solemnly: "This action is our battle of life and death, so everyone must move forward with one heart, otherwise, it is not only us who will die, but even our families will not be able to keep it, as long as the matter is done, I will definitely ask for a reward for you, everyone, the success or failure of life and death is in this move, Listen to my orders, everyone set out at once! ”

Then Pei Qian led this temporary patchwork of miscellaneous troops and set off for the West City Gate.

Coming to the west city gate, Pei Qian had no extra nonsense, and immediately led the two hundred people under his command to attack the soldiers guarding the gate, because it was at night, and the time was close to the fourth watch, so there were not many guards at the city gate, only about 20 people, and they didn't even wear armor, so it could almost be said that they were not defenseless, and they were suddenly attacked by these more than 200 people.

In order to prevent a long night and many dreams, Pei Qian personally led the guards in the palace with the strongest combat effectiveness to kill under the city gate, struggled to open the city gate, and then cut the rope on the suspension bridge, came to the moat, and shouted: "It's Liu Yuanjun who came?" Under is the eldest son of Shangshu Pei Mao, Pei Qian, who was ordered by his father to lead the slaves to open the city gate, time is pressing, please Liu Zhijun do not hesitate to enter the city immediately, otherwise, if there is a momentary delay, I am afraid that Li Li's army will come. ”
