Chapter 196: Liang Qin Alliance
Standing at the head of Lianchuan Fort, looking at the direction of Guangwu City with worried eyes, the bald Wei Tan was gloomy in his heart, worried about the current situation. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Before setting out for the expedition, he had already guessed that the Hexi army would take advantage of the situation to go south, and he also tried to prevent Brother Wang from sending troops.
It was only later that he was persuaded by his brother that it was better to die than to sit and wait for death.
As expected, the Hexi Army also moved south, making the desperate westward expedition sound the death knell for the demise of Nanliang.
When the bad news came, he began to arrange the defense of Lianchuan Fort, and at the same time quickly sent an envoy to Western Qin for help.
At present, he only hopes that Qifu Qiangui will send reinforcements as soon as possible, otherwise Nanliang alone will definitely not be able to stop the wolf-like Hexi army.
In addition, the bald Wei Tan was also worried about the safety of the Western Expeditionary Army, for fear that his brother would withdraw desperately when he heard that Nanliang was attacked.
It must be known that Wei Shuo is a famous general in the world, once he learns of the movement of the Western Expeditionary Army, how can he let go of the opportunity to break the enemy sent to the door?
If the Western Expeditionary Army is accidentally annihilated by a sneak attack again, then there is no need to fight this next battle, and Nanliang may have no chance to turn over.
"Brother, don't fall for Wei Shuo's tricks." The bald man stood on the top of the city, muttering to himself.
I have to say that the bald mattress was a little redundant, and after taking Guangwu, the people up and down the west of the river were afraid of the dangerous terrain of Hehuang, and the army was not in a hurry to go south.
……
When the news of the Hexi Army marching south and conquering Guangwu came out, all parties in Longyou were in an uproar.
The Hexi Army's offensive was too fierce, giving people a sense of devastation.
Nanliang and Houliang, including Xiqin, are all in danger.
It has only been less than three years since the Battle of Wuting, so its influence is still there, and the powerful image of the Hexi Army has long been deeply rooted in the minds of Longyou Zhuhu.
And the battle of Guangwu seems to confirm this, and more than 10,000 defenders can't hold out even for half a day.
The bald and lily Lugu, who was besieging Xiping, was dumbfounded when he received an urgent report from Lianchuan Fort, and hurriedly came to Yang Huan to discuss.
"Zuo Sima, something is wrong."
"At present, the Hexi Army is moving south, and our army has not been able to capture Xiping City for a long time, so it is dangerous to go on in Nanliang."
In the big tent of the Chinese army, at this moment, the bald and lily deer is like an ant on a hot pot, completely messed up.
The Hexi Army moved too fast, conquering Guangwu in the blink of an eye, causing the whole situation to be critical.
"King, there is no other way but to turn around and fight with the Hexi army."
"If you win by luck, there is still hope for Nanliang Guozuo to be saved, otherwise it will ......"
The bald deer turned pale, and he stood stunned for a while before he said fiercely: "The widow will go and arrange for the army to retreat." ”
Unexpectedly, he was just about to go out, but was stopped by Yang Huan again.
I only heard Yang Huan carefully remind: "Don't worry, don't worry, listen to your subordinates finish speaking." ”
"Judging from the current situation, it is difficult to defeat the Hexi Army by relying on Nanliang alone, and it is necessary to unite Houliang and Western Qin to send troops together."
"Well, I'm afraid it's too late." The bald and ligu said with a bitter face: "Hou Liang only has one breath left, and he can't protect himself, how can he have the strength to fight?" ”
"Western Qin is strong and strong, but the main force of its army is quelling the Tianshui rebellion, I am afraid that the begging and returning will also be powerless."
"This Wei Shuo's mind is really vicious, so he chose to send troops at this moment."
"King, although our army is planning to retreat, we still need to beware of a sneak attack from Houliang."
"What?! It's all in front of you, Lu Long still has the heart to attack us? ”
"The king doesn't know, Lu Long and Lu Chao are cunning, and they will be revenged, so it's always right for us to be careful."
It was still Yang Huan who knew Brother Lu Long, as he expected, Lu Long really couldn't swallow this breath.
Ignoring everyone's opposition, he strongly demanded a sneak attack when Nanliang withdrew his troops.
An alliance was signed with Lu Long, and the bald Lugu led his army to leave after showing off his might outside the city.
Yang Huan reminded him that the bald and ligu had expected that Lu Long would send troops to attack and had made preparations in advance.
Sure enough, on the night of the withdrawal, Lu Long sent 3,000 elite soldiers to sneak attack.
When the 3,000 men and horses of Houliang all rushed into the Nanliang camp, they realized that something was wrong, and they saw ambushes all around.
In this battle, the bald deer slashed more than 1,000 Houliang generals Wang Ji and armor soldiers, completely foiling the Houliang conspiracy and making Lu Long lose face.
After the end of this battle, the bald and Lilu Gu didn't care about settling accounts with Lu Long, and personally led the army to retreat quickly.
……
"The Hexi army broke through Guangwu, and the soldiers pointed directly at Lianchuan Fort!"
"In the face of the powerful offensive of the Hexi Army, the bald-haired turtle retreated into the city and did not dare to meet the enemy."
"I was shocked to hear that the Hexi Army was moving south, and the King of Nanliang was in a hurry."
"Hexi General Wang Zhongde led his troops south, and the troops pointed directly at Baitujin."
The true and false news frightened the people of Western Qin, and just when the begging and returning were terrified, the envoy of Nanliang came to Jincheng.
There was no wind today, and the sun was also shining, and the messenger from Nanliang read out the letter of request for help to Xiqin in the main hall.
Facing Nan Liang's request for help, Xiqin quarreled up and down.
Some people have far-sightedness, thinking that once Nanliang dies, Western Qin will inevitably not be able to survive alone, so they will send troops to rescue.
There are also people who are afraid of the strength of the Hexi army, and are worried that sending troops will be useless and can only waste troops in vain, so it is better to leave a large army to ensure the safety of Western Qin.
In the face of the controversy of the ministers, the king of Western Qin was noncommittal, but in fact, he already had a plan in his chest.
The bald Wei Tan said in his letter asking for help that as long as Western Qin was willing to send troops to help, Nan Liang would not only cede the land and reward him afterwards, but also pay tribute to Western Qin.
It can be seen from this that Nan Liang is really on the verge of destroying the country, otherwise with the arrogance of the bald brothers, how can he easily bow to him?
But at the moment, we can't care about these things, and I know very well in my heart that soldiers must be sent out, but we need to pay attention to some details.
As some courtiers said, Nanliang's soldiers are weak, and most of the guards Shuo Shen is resourceful and resourceful, and the bald brothers are definitely not his opponents.
If Nanliang is quickly defeated, the Western Qin reinforcements will be in danger if they are not careful, and even the Western Qin will have to get in.
In view of the complexity of the situation, the requirements for the ability of leading generals are extremely high.
Not only must you be familiar with military affairs, but you should also have a certain degree of political diplomatic skills, so that you can be foolproof.
It is difficult to grasp the middle proportion, and the only way to send a son to beg is to send a son to beg for a blazing pan.
Begging Blazing Pan has been resolute since childhood, and is good at making decisions, and has the right to ignore others, but he is too young and has no experience in battle.
But at the moment, there is no one available in Western Qin, and the prince can only be sent out.
Thinking of this, the beggar called his son to him and told him repeatedly.
"Prince!"
"Erchen is here!"
"Right now, we in Xiqin may encounter an unprecedented crisis."
"Father refers to the Hexi army marching south?" Begging for the blazing blessing to the heart, I instantly guessed what my father was referring to.
Begging for Qiangui bowed slightly, and sighed: "Yes, the widow is wrong, really wrong!" ”
"At the beginning, we really shouldn't have let the bald and Lilu go to fight Houliang, so the Hexi army would not go south easily."
"Now that Guangwu is lost, the Nanliang Gate is open, and the Hexi Army can drive straight into the encirclement of Lianchuan Fort."
"And the Hexi Army has always been good at attacking fortifications and defending cities, so Lianchuan Fort is in danger and Nanliang is in danger!"
"As soon as Nan Liang dies, Hou Liang will inevitably not be able to survive alone, and then it will be our turn to Xi Qin."
"Father, do you want to inform your uncle to withdraw from the Tianshui line?"
As for the proposal of Begging for Blazing Pan, Begging for Dry Return is worthy of being a scheming and calculating, and he categorically rejected it after careful consideration.
From a political point of view, not allowing the expeditionary forces to retreat hastily is conducive to stabilizing the domestic situation.
Originally, due to the southward movement of the Hexi Army, its country was already in turmoil.
If you let the Yizhou class teacher in a hurry, it will make outsiders think that Xiqin is really not good, and then cause even more chaos.
From a military point of view, although the Hexi Army showed a strong performance, it easily captured Guangwu, causing shocks on all sides.
But specifically, the Hexi Army did not form an overwhelming advantage.
Therefore, Qi Fu Qiangui believed that as long as Western Qin and Southern Liang cooperated closely, they might not be able to thwart the Hexi Army's attempt to move south.
Thinking of this, he took the hand of the beggar and solemnly admonished: "This time, my father plans to let you unify 10,000 people to aid Nanliang, do you dare to take on the heavy responsibility?" ”
"The son is willing to make a military order."
"Okay, but you need to be cautious on this trip, and you must not act recklessly."
"You are my son, and I will tell you the truth for my father."
"This time, don't rush to seek merit, but move slowly and slowly, depending on the situation."
Begging and blazing in his heart, he understood: "My father's intentions, my sons and ministers know everything." ”
Faced with the danger of dying lips and teeth, Western Qin decided to send troops to rescue Nanliang
Subsequently, the king of Western Qin sent the prince as a general and led 10,000 troops to aid Nanliang.
