Ninety-six Zhou Lang has his own clever plan
Ps: On the first day of the new book's shelves, ask for a subscription and ask for a monthly pass, and everyone also knows that this book swordsman didn't save the manuscript before because of the cooperation with a game, so it's four to five more today, and then two more every day, and it will explode when you have time!
The Tang army led by Zhao Yun took the border army of Yu State as the main force, and recently participated in the great victory of Louzhai and the defeat of Wei Chou in Hanoi, and its combat effectiveness rose sharply and its morale was high.
And the newly joined bandits were originally unruly and unruly gangsters, they accepted Ji Ling's recruitment, and followed from Shen Guo to Hanoi to Fang Li in order to make meritorious contributions.
Although the remaining small number of recruits are weaker in combat effectiveness, they are equipped with captured Jin armor and weapons, and follow Zhao Yun and Ma Dai, the two fierce generals, and their morale is high and their fighting spirit is high.
10,000 Tang soldiers fought bravely, each competing for the first, and the corpses of the Yu army who were killed directly were all over the place, the blood-stained barren slopes, 6,000 soldiers killed more than 3,000 people in battle, and the rest disarmed and surrendered, kneeling and begging not to kill.
Zhao Yun left a partial general to lead a thousand people to guard the camp, and he and Ma Dai led other soldiers out of the camp overnight and attacked Xingyang City, hoping to take the city in one go.
However, Dong Sheng, the general of the State of Qiu, had already expected that Chen Pi and Cui Yi would not return, so he had already ordered the city gate to be closed, and mobilized the Shijia clan and the people of the Hanmen in the city to climb the city wall to assist in the defense, and those who dared to disobey were thrown into prison.
For a time, the torches at the head of Xingyang City were gathered, and Dong Sheng mobilized more than 20,000 people and more than 9,000 troops scattered on the city wall to defend it to the death.
"Stop marching!"
Facing the well-defended Xingyang City, Zhao Yun was a little disappointed, and with a move of his spear, he ordered the attack to be suspended.
Since ancient times, in the absence of internal reinforcement, in order to conquer the city, it is necessary to have at least about five times the strength of the defenders, otherwise it will be difficult to break through the city gates.
With Zhao Yun's order, more than 8,000 Tang troops stopped the attack and stood by in the city.
Zhao Yun saw Dong Sheng, the military general in charge of commanding on the city wall, and hugged his fists on the horse and said: "General Dong, Cheng Gao, do you still know Zhao Yun?" ”
Dong Sheng held his sword in his hand and scolded loudly: "You traitors and thieves, treacherous villains, have kidnapped our Duke Yu, even if you turn into ashes, Dong will know you!" ”
Zhao Yun immediately crossed his gun and retorted loudly: "General Dong is simply a kind and avenging general, at the beginning, you were killed by Wei Chou, and you were killed by Cai Yun and Kong Mi, and more than 20,000 people were killed in battle, and the Jin army may cross the Yellow River at any time and sweep the country, making the lives miserable and the country ruined."
At the critical moment, it is our General Fang Bofu who turned the tide and helped the building to fall; First defeated Wei Chou in Hanoi, and then led the Yu coalition army to the north to attack the Jin, recovered Pinglu in one fell swoop, and expelled the Jin people from Jiangguan, so that the peace of the country of Qiu is today.
The merger of Yu Yu is beneficial to the country and the people, and can resist strong enemies externally, and can increase the communication between the people internally, which is beneficial to the country and the people. Besides, Duke Yu and Duke Yu have agreed to govern together, which can be said to be unprecedented and unprecedented, so why are you still rebellious and stubbornly resisting? ”
"Bah, that's nonsense!"
Dong Sheng grabbed his bow and arrows and fired an arrow at Zhao Yun to vent his anger, but naturally he missed the shot.
Then with one hand on his waist, the halberd pointed at Zhao Yun and scolded: "Since ancient times, there are no two days in the sky, there are no two masters in the people, and Fang Li's intention to usurp power and seize the throne is already known to passers-by, why should you say that the traitors are high-sounding?" If you are really for the sake of the people of the two countries, why don't you let the Yu country be merged into the Yu country? Hugh wants to waste his lips and tongue here again, and wants to take down Xingyang Zhiguan to attack! ”
"Old horseman, do you have the ability to come down and compete with my Ma Dai?"
Ma Dai behind Zhao Yun urged the horse forward and scolded loudly, in exchange for a dense rain of arrows from the Yu army.
Ma Dai said to Zhao Yun hatefully: "I heard the soldiers say that it was General Zilong who spared his life in Chenggao last time, but I didn't expect this old thief to be so stubborn and ignorant of current affairs!" If you knew this, it would be better to chop off the dog's head with a knife! ”
Zhao Yun smiled bitterly: "At the beginning, Wen Yuan and I also wanted to kill him, but we didn't control the Yu army at that time, and we were afraid of arousing the resistance of the 30,000 soldiers of the Yu army, so we let Dong Sheng leave because of a small loss." ”
The head of Xingyang City was already heavily guarded, and Zhao Yun was afraid of losing his troops and did not dare to forcibly attack the city, so he ordered Mingjin to collect his troops and send scouts to report to the commander Zhou Yu, and then make plans.
Everything seemed to be expected by Zhou Yu, and after receiving Zhao Yun's battle report, he pinched his chin and laughed: "The rotten ship still has three catties of iron, Xingyang has a history of seven hundred years, how can it be so easy to take it down?" ”
Zhou Yu summoned Ji Ling to his side as he spoke, and ordered: "You lead 5,000 soldiers to leave the main force quickly, quietly hide in the south, and order the craftsmen in the army to erect the Korean flag and pretend to be the Korean army." ”
"Oh...... Could it be that General Gongjin thought that Ji Dan would ask South Korea for help? Ji Ling crossed his hands on his hips and asked with a frown.
Zhou Yu nodded; "Looking around the country of Qiu, Shen, Su, and Ji are all small countries, and they are still too busy to protect themselves, so how can they have the strength to save them? Only South Korea, which is located in the southeast of the country, has the strength to help Ji Dan, and it is most likely to help Ji Dan! ”
Cao Xing, who had a sharp beak and monkey cheeks, folded his arms in front of his chest and asked: "Our Datang Xinli has no grievances with South Korea, why do they want to oppose my Datang?" ”
Zhou Yu put his hands behind his back, paced back and forth in the tent, and said in a thick and magnetic voice: "How can others be allowed to sleep soundly on the side of the couch? In terms of strength, South Korea is far inferior to the four major powers of Qi, Qin, Chu and Jin, and if South Korea wants to develop, it can only aim at the small countries of Shen, Su, Xu and Deng in the West. ”
"General Gongjin means that I should find a place to ambush the Korean army that came to help?" Ji Ling still didn't guess Zhou Yu's strategy, and scratched his scalp and asked.
Zhou Yu shook his head and said, "Fei Ye, Fei Ye, I have already arranged ambush soldiers on the road from Xingyang to South Korea to arrest suspicious people in the past. As long as you catch the envoy of the Kingdom of Qiu, you can calculate the time when the Korean army will come to help, and then you will lead your troops to appear under Xingyang City, open the city gate by fraud, and take Xingyang in one fell swoop. ”
Ji Ling suddenly had an epiphany at this time, and gave up his hand: "The last general knows, General Gongjin is in charge, rest assured, Ji Ling will definitely complete the task!" ”
Ji Ling ordered 5,000 soldiers and horses to quietly leave the camp and part ways with the main force, while Zhou Yu and Cao Xing led the remaining 15,000 soldiers to pull out the camp and go south, until they reached the city of Xingyang to meet with Zhao Yun's vanguard troops and set up camp.
Xingyang is a large city that can be counted in the whole world, with more than 100,000 inhabitants in the city, and the city is huge, and only 25,000 men and horses led by Zhou Yu cannot surround the city. Therefore, Zhou Yu ordered to set up three camps under the command of himself, Zhao Yun and Ma Dai, and blocked the eastern, western, and northern gates of Xingyang respectively, leaving only a way out for the south gate of the Yu army.
Seeing that the reinforcements of the Tang army arrived at the city, Dong Sheng ordered the four gates to be closed, and the soldiers and civilians took turns to climb the city wall to garrison and hold on. At the same time, Xiang Ji Dan proposed to send an envoy to Yangzhai, the royal city of South Korea, to ask for help from Han Hou Han Wu.
Chen Pi and Cui Yi sent by Ji Dan died on the battlefield, and the 6,000 soldiers and horses were wiped out, which made the young and vigorous Ji Dan suffer a blow, and he no longer dared to show his courage in blood, and immediately sent a messenger to leave Xingyang and rush to Yang Zhai for help after receiving Dong Sheng's suggestion.
South Korea is located in the southeast of the country of Qiu, facing the state of Wei across the Yellow River in the north, adjacent to the state of Qiu in the west, in addition to the national capital Yangzhai, there are three counties of Pingyang, Yiyang and Xinzheng, with more than 30 counties under its jurisdiction and a population of 2.6 million.
Although the successive monarchs of South Korea have been working hard, it has been difficult to make breakthroughs because they are located in the Central Plains and are sandwiched in the center by major powers.
The successive monarchs of South Korea are all surnamed Ji, Han, and their status has always been a marquis, not only a level lower than Qi, Qin, Chu, Jin, Zhao, Lu and other powerful countries, but also the title is not as good as the ancestors of Yu, Yu, Song and other countries.
Of course, in terms of national strength and military strength, South Korea, with a population of 2.6 million and an army of 150,000, can completely defeat the trio of Yu, Yu, and Song, but its status has not been improved for a long time.
The current monarch of South Korea is Han Wu, the Marquis of Han Zhaohou in the official history, who succeeded to the throne ten years ago, and appointed Shin Buxian as the minister of state after taking power, reforming internal affairs, developing the economy, and enhancing national strength.
Although there has been a small development in recent years, in the case of strong Qin in the west, Qilu in the east, Great Chu in the south, and Han Zhao in the north, the improvement of national strength is limited.
For this reason, Han Wu's cousin Han Fei repeatedly proposed to reform internal affairs, crack down on the behavior of aristocratic forces enclosing land, and strive to achieve clear rewards and punishments, so that the nobles could not be enjoyed by lying on the merits of their ancestors for generations.
Han Fei was brilliant in writing and well-known among various countries, Han Wu was afraid that he would dominate and threaten his position, so he did not accept Han Fei's suggestion, but only appointed him with an idle position to manage the project, which made Han Fei sigh every day, regretting that he could not show his ambitions.
When he learned that Ji Shubi was controlled by Fang Li in Hanoi and that Yu Yu was merged into Tang, Han Fei wrote to Han Hou, requesting that troops be sent to recruit Xingyang and take the opportunity to expand the territory.
However, Han Wu hesitated, feeling that the division was unknown, and if it was attacked by the surrounding countries such as Wei, Lu, and Chu, it would fall into a state of no return. In addition, the weather was cold and freezing, and it was difficult to use troops, so Han Wu decided to wait and see how the situation changed.
But what the Korean monarchs and ministers did not expect was that after entering November, the Tang State suddenly sent troops and sent Zhou Yu and Zhao Yun to cross the Yellow River and knock Xingyang directly with 50,000 troops, which made Korea panic.
There is no need for the country to send an envoy to ask for help, Han Wu summoned Xiangguo Shen Buxian, Dazai Xia tired, the general Tyranny Kite, the general Gongsun Yu, Han Chao and others to discuss countermeasures, and Han Fei, who served as Taizhu, was also called out to discuss state affairs.
The morning sun has not yet risen, and the palace in Yangzhai City is already full of civil and military personnel, and the sages are all there.
Thirty-five years old, Han Wu, who was in the prime of life, knelt in the center of the main hall, swept the ministers at his feet with a sharp gaze, and asked loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, Fang Li and Yu Yu are Tang, and the momentum is aggressive. A few days ago, Zhou Yu and Zhao Yun were sent across the Yellow River to attack Xingyang, which seriously threatened the interests of our Korea. ”
