Chapter 366: Han Xin led his troops to besiege Anyi
When Li Sheng heard Wei Bao say this, he only felt that this time the King of Western Wei seemed to have a great misunderstanding of the King of Han, and Uncle Zhou's defense, I am afraid that he will not be able to wash away the black history of the King of Han at all, so how can he surrender to Han.
At this moment, Li Sheng felt that since he couldn't bleach the King of Han, it would be good to discuss the negative news of the overlord of Western Chu with Wei Bao, so Li Sheng said slowly: "The king has lived in Anyi for a long time, don't you know the atrocities of the overlord of Western Chu?" actually has to act against the sky and want to surrender to Chu, this is just to provoke fire. ”
"I don't know what the overlord has done, but with the father by his side, I believe that the overlord will make a difference, and besides, I don't want to worship him, so I don't have to worry too much." Wei Bao said indifferently.
"I hope that the king has a good life, the overlord burns Xianyang, slaughters the infant, destroys the tomb of the first emperor, and kills the righteous emperor, such heinous people, the world should fight together." Li Sheng said imposingly.
Uncle Zhou sneered beside him, "Now the King of Han sent people to attack Pengcheng, what is the result?" The overlord's 30,000 elite soldiers slaughtered 300,000 Han troops, if it weren't for God's help, how could he have won a great victory. ”
Seeing this, Li Sheng felt that the two monarchs and ministers seemed to have made up their minds, so they didn't say more, and the next day they left the king of Western Wei, rushed to Xingyang, and then packed up their things and went to Linzi to pick up people.
Now the king of Western Wei failed to be persuaded by Li Sheng, Liu Bang only felt that Anyi was a hidden danger, at this time the north of Xingyang was the king of Yin Sima Wei, if Wei Bao cut off the grain road between Hangu Pass and Xingyang, it did not need too many troops, and basically the Han army would be all finished.
In Xingyang City, Liu Bang was really in a desperate situation at this time, Lu Yan's mood was relatively relaxed, and he had been inquiring about Han Xin's news, as long as Shangjun took it, Anyi and Pingyang were not to be afraid.
However, since Xiang Yu recaptured Pengcheng, there has been no movement, and it seems that he is rebuilding several important towns in the vicinity, so as not to be captured by Liu Bang again.
Just when the princes and kings were silent, Han Xin sent good news from Shangjun one after another, which roughly means that Shangjun has been completely pacified and has not lost much military strength.
After Lu Yan heard the news in the house, he was overjoyed, and immediately changed into his regular clothes and went to meet the King of Han, and it happened that Zhang Liang and Chen Ping were all there.
The four of them sat opposite each other, and the atmosphere was very delicate, "You Aiqing came here today, don't you have something important to discuss?" Liu Bang asked a little dazed.
"Doesn't the king know that the general has taken over Shangjun?" Zhang Liang asked first.
Liu Bang bowed slightly, "That's true, but we are in Xingyang, and General Han can continue to march north, so why bother with all the affairs of Shangjun?" ”
"Brother's words are wrong, now he doesn't need to go north, he can make peace with his brother, and first take down the King of Western Wei and the King of Yin, Sima Wei, so that he is really opposed to Chu!" Lu Yan said excitedly.
Chen Ping immediately took the map on the side, "When the Chu State attacked Xiao County, it was able to win, so we let Han Xin attack Anyi, so General Wei would go to the rescue." ”
Before that, let's talk about the deployment of the Wei army, the main military strength is all in Puban, and then block the Yellow River crossing Linjin Pass, so that the Han army can not cross the river to attack Xiayang and Anyi.
The purpose of this arrangement was obviously to prevent Liu Bang's army, but he never knew where Han Xin's army was still there, so he only deployed Linjin Pass.
Liu Bang looked at the map in front of him, and also felt that it made sense, "But if the overlord comes to attack, won't Xingyang suffer from the enemy on his back?" ”
"Brother, don't worry, you can let Wang Ling and Xiahou Ying guard Chen County and oppose the Chu army of Waihuang, so that you can buy time and defeat Wei Bao." Lu Yan then said.
Several people discussed and decided, Liu Bang immediately wrote a seal, sent someone to send a horse to Han Xin, and asked Han Xin to lead his troops to Anyi to attack the king of Western Wei, while Fan Xu and Cao Shen were ambushed between Puban and Anyi.
After Han Xin received Liu Bang's letter, he also had a general battle plan in his heart, that is, to send troops to attack Linjin Pass, note that it was just a feint here, and then attack Xiayang from the upper reaches of the Yellow River, take advantage of the Wei army's unpreparedness, and then surround Anyi, and do not attack, but lure the Wei army in Puban to come to the rescue, so as to annihilate it in one fell swoop.
At that time, after Han Xin had arranged the affairs of Shangjun, he immediately rushed south towards Linjin Pass, Wei Bao heard the news, and was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly sent troops to support.
And Xia Yang and An Yi felt that Han Xin's attack on the Yellow River crossing would definitely not endanger Xia Yang, but Han Xinsheng attacked the east and west and gathered the main force near Xia Yang in concealment, but the Wei army did not know at all, and then Han Xin asked the soldiers to cross the Yellow River by wooden poppy.
The wooden poppy is a wooden container with a large circle in the middle and two smaller ends, only a small opening on the top, which is probably blocked by the upper opening, and the soldiers can cross the river with it, which is similar to the current lifebuoy.
After crossing the river, he attacked Xia Yang on the flank of Linjin Pass with rapid action, how did the Wei army learn of Han Xin's battle plan at that time, so Xia Yang was lost, and Han Xin broke the Wei army in the Dongzhang area, and immediately attacked the strategic place of Anyi.
The Han army's surprise attack on Wei's strategic location shocked the king of Western Wei, and he immediately ordered his soldiers to transfer troops, so that he was forced to transfer troops near Puban in a hurry to save Anyi's danger.
In this way, Wei Bao's army gathered in Pusaka was first placed in a useless place, and then passively returned to the army, running back and forth, exhausted.
After the Han army attacked and occupied Anyi, Han Xin immediately sent troops to ambush, and at this time, the armies of Cao Shen and Fan Xu also arrived, and the three soldiers and horses immediately attacked the Wei army that came to save Anyi, and the two armies fought in the southwest of Anyi.
The Han army Cao Shen attacked from the front, and the cavalry of Fan Hao and Guan Ying surrounded and attacked on the side. The Chu general Xiang It, who came to support, could not stop Cao Shen's attack and fled, and the cavalry of the Wei general Feng Jing was also scattered and killed by the infants, and the Wei army gradually fell into encirclement.
At the Linjin River crossing, Han Xin's feint troops also arrived from Pusaka and arrived in time to participate in the battle. The Wei general Wang Xiang was captured by Han Xin's army, and Wei Wangbao led the defeated army east to Quyang, where he was once again broken by the Han army.
The king of the Western Wei Dynasty saw that the situation was not good, and continued to flee, what is more interesting is that Wei Bao fled without soldiers, without hundreds of officials, but with his wife Bo Ji, in his eyes, Bo Ji is a person who can become a queen, and must not die, it can be seen that Xu Bao's words have a deep impact on Wei Bao.
Wei Bao fled to Dongyuan and was captured by the Han army, and the Wei army was completely annihilated on the battlefield by the Han army. This was also a strategic victory that boosted the morale of the Han army after the defeat of Pengcheng.
The Han army broke through the Wei army and captured the king of Wei, pacified the Wei land, and the strategic threat on the south side of the Guanzhong River was lifted, which greatly benefited the battle situation in Xingyang.
Since then, most of the princes in the north have been pacified, only the Yin King Sima Wei between Chu and Han, on the current situation, the King of Jiujiang and the King of Linjiang still have no intention of sending troops, here to explain, there are two princes and kings are still more powerful, that is, Yan Wang Zang Tu and Linjiang King Gongao, from beginning to end did not send troops, and then the Han King won and surrendered directly.
