Chapter 204: The Empty City of Nanyang
Nanyang County is located in the northwest of Yiyang County less than 200 miles, in the southwest direction of Xuchang, the distance is only more than 200 miles, Xie Xuan in the Beifu Soldiers and Water Division issued a military order ten days later, he personally led the Beifu soldiers 50,000 infantry, 8,000 cavalry, Yuzhou 30,000 infantry, 5,000 cavalry, from Yiyang County, straight to Nanyang County!
There are 20,000 former Qin defenders in the city of Nanyang County, but it is not the Qiang army, but the bald Xianbei family, the general who defends the city is the bald Xianbei young lord bald Wugu, the bald Xianbei and the Qiang people have always been incompatible, at this moment the Eastern Jin Dynasty army is forcing the city, and the bald Wugu can only send a letter of help to Xuchang!
"Young master, please give the order to abandon the city!" An old man over sixty years old beside the bald black lonely said in a deep voice. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"What do you say? Abandoned city? "The bald black suddenly changed color!
"Elder Zhang, His Majesty the Heavenly King trusts me to be bald and humble, and hands Nanyang into the hands of my bald Wugu, is it possible that as soon as the Eastern Jin Dynasty army moves, I will abandon the city and flee?"
"Young master, it is Xie Xuan who leads the troops in the Eastern Jin Dynasty this time, not Xie Yan, if you don't abandon the city and leave at this time, after the Eastern Jin Dynasty army completes the siege, the young master, and my 20,000 Xianbei soldiers, their lives are in danger!"
The old man was dressed as a famous Jiangzuo scholar, and he didn't look like a Hu person, and he was anxiously persuading this bald black lonely man at this time.
"What about Xie Xuan?" The bald black sneered disdainfully.
"Nanyang's city defense is not comparable to Ruyin, and it is not much better than its Xuchang, if our army can't hold out, what can he do?"
"Besides, does Yao Chang dare to let the Eastern Jin Dynasty army wantonly besiege my Nanyang? Isn't he afraid that His Majesty will find out and condemn him? ”
"Young master, please listen to the old man's advice, the old man is originally from the south, he knows Xie Xuan quite well, Xie Xuan leads the troops, plans and then moves, he can get out of the army to force Nanyang, he must have a comprehensive plan, Nanyang is bound to win, and Han and Hu are not separated, once the city of Nanyang is broken, the end of what we are waiting for will come!" The old man surnamed Zhang sighed and said.
"Yao Chang naturally won't sit back and watch Nanyang lose, if Nanyang is lost, it will be Yiyang, not Xuchang, who will be in danger with Nanyang at that time!"
"It's just that the old man is sure that Xie Xuan must have a way to suppress Yao Chang in Xuchang City and not be able to move!"
The bald Wugu was silent, and only after a long time did he ask: "There are still tens of thousands of Qiang troops in Xuchang City, can they all be suppressed by Xie Xuan in the city?" ”
"Who is Xie Xuan? He is the first general in Jiangzuo, known for his calmness in the use of soldiers, and there is no shortage of strange soldiers everywhere in the calm, don't forget, the young master, the Beifu Soldier and Water Division has never shown up! The bald black and lonely hesitation, the tone of the old man surnamed Zhang softened slightly, and he was no longer so eager.
"If the old man guessed correctly, the sailor of the Beifu soldiers is only afraid that he is already above Rushui at this time, and he will soon be able to approach Xuchang City, and at that time, Xie Xuan only needs a suspicious tactic to make Yao Chang dare not act rashly, for him, Xuchang is naturally thousands of times more important than Nanyang!"
"Moreover, the Qiang people have always been at odds with my bald Xianbei, and the sailors of the Beifu soldiers also gave Yao Chang an excuse not to send troops to support, and now the situation is critical, please make a decision as soon as possible!"
"Elder Zhang, if Nanyang is abandoned, where can we go?" The bald black suddenly said helplessly.
The bald Xianbei is now weak, not to mention compared with Murong Xianbei, even if it is compared to Tuoba Xianbei, it is slightly inferior, Tuoba Xianbei and the two cities of Hecheng Shengle are the base camps, and the bald Xianbei is only this Nanyang County that Fu Jian rewarded!
"Xuchang naturally can't go, if Nanyang is lost, even if His Majesty the King of Heaven will not condemn the young master, I am afraid that it will be difficult to be used by His Majesty the King of Heaven in the future!" Zhang Lao said with a deep groan.
"Why don't we go west and defect to Lu Guang of the Di clan!"
"The Di Clan?" The bald black lonely was slightly stunned, and he didn't know why Zhang Lao proposed this.
"Yes, young master, the Di clan is now increasingly solid in the northwest, and Lu Guang has the ambition to unify the north and then go south to occupy the Central Plains, if the young master can lead the troops to vote at this time, he will definitely be protected and reused by Lu Guang!"
"Now I am bald and Xianbei has no base of my own, so I can only borrow chickens to lay eggs!"
"Okay, Elder Zhang, just decide!" The bald black stood up suddenly, when the interruption continues, it will be chaotic, since the loss of Nanyang is a foregone conclusion, it is natural to retain the vitality and plot in the future!
"Order the whole army to immediately abandon Nanyang and march to the northwest!"
…
When Xie Xuan led the army to the city of Nanyang County, the city gate of Nanyang County was already wide open, and people went to the city, looking at the empty bald and humble military camp, Xie Xuan couldn't help but smile slightly.
"The bald black is lonely and abandons guarding Nanyang, our army has gained control of Nanyang without spending a single soldier, why is the eldest brother just smiling?" Xie Yan was in an extremely comfortable mood at the moment, and asked with a laugh.
"Could it be that all this was expected by the eldest brother?"
"Just by looking at Xuan Shuai letting the cavalry open the way, you know that Xuan Shuai is already holding the wisdom pearl!" Wei Jieyi also said with a smile.
"Huh?" Xie Xuan glanced at Wei Jie in surprise.
"Could it be that Xiao Jiejie has already seen through the mystery?"
Wei Jiewei shrugged his shoulders slightly, and said casually: "It's a bit too boastful to say that you can see through it, but you can see it a little!" ”
"The bald black lonely is not a stupid person, this time it is Xuan Shuai who is here, he naturally knows that Nanyang is Xuan Shuai's ambition, if he wants to hold Nanyang, he must have reinforcements, and now the only one who can provide him with support is Yao Chang of Xuchang!"
"Maybe he has confidence in Yao Chang, but he is even more jealous of Xuan Shuai, he will definitely think that Xuan Shuai must have a way to suppress Xuchang's Qiang army in the city, in order to avoid unnecessary losses, it is reasonable to abandon Nanyang!"
"What Xiao Jie's said makes a lot of sense!" Xie Xuan glanced at Wei Jie appreciatively and said softly.
"However, the bald Wugu is not so smart, I think it should be that he has a master around him to guide him, and besides, he is not afraid of me Xie Xuan, but he has no confidence in Yao Chang!"
"I don't think I know that Xiaojie has always been at odds with the Qiang people!"
Wei Jie, and Xie Yan showed abrupt expressions at the same time.
"Gong An said that sooner or later there will be a battle between my Great Jin and the former Qin, and the people waiting for this battle are not only Fu Jian and me Xie Xuan, but also the northern Hu tribes!" Xie Xuan paused slightly, and then said.
"If Qianqin wins this battle, Fu Jian will go south and unify the north and south, and the world will be unified from now on, Fu Jian's power will reach its peak, and Qianqin will become more and more stable!"
"If my Great Jin is lucky to win and Fu Jian is defeated, the north and south of the world will be divided from now on, and the former Qin will inevitably collapse, and his subordinates Murong Chui Yao Chang and others will be self-reliant with their own mercenaries, and repeat the scene of the battle between the heroes of the late Han Dynasty on the northern land, and my Great Jin will have dozens or even hundreds of years of time to recuperate, and it is only a matter of time before the Northern Expedition again!"
