After Xie Xuan, Wei Jie, and Xie Yan discussed the details of the operation in detail, one after another military orders were also passed out of the commander's tent, and Xie Yan was also ordered to go out of the tent to dispatch the Yuzhou army. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Is Xuan Shuai worried about Huan Xuan?"

Inside the handsome tent, Xie Xuan's face was a little solemn, and Wei Jie's heart felt something, and he asked.

Xie Xuan nodded slightly, and said: "Now only He Qian is in charge of Jingkou, and the strength is less than 5,000, and although there are 20,000 Le's troops in Jiankang City to assist in the city defense, it is just a void in front of the Jingzhou army!" ”

"If Huan Xuan wants to take Jiankang, I'm afraid it's a matter of getting caught!"

These situations were all thought about before the Northern Expedition, Xie Xuan's worries have always been there, Wei Jie sighed in his heart, if he didn't say it, Xie Xuan would definitely not believe it, he really wanted to tell Xie Xuan, Xie An is very likely to be looking forward to Huan Xuan going to Jiankang City, as long as he takes the children of the Xie family to Jingkou, and then let Huan Xuan pass through Guangling, Jingkou, and take Jiankang directly to achieve his goal!

"Xuan Shuai thinks Yang Ji will let the Jingzhou army pass through his defense area?"

"Yang Yan?" Xie Xuan sneered and shook his head.

"Although Yang Yanqi is a general, he is also a villain who tends to be inflammatory, mercenary, he doesn't take the opportunity to send troops with Huan Xuan, it would be good, if Yin Zhong Kanshang led the troops in Jingzhou, he might not sit back and watch Huan Xuan send troops!"

"It's useless to think too much, now our first task is to take Xuchang, so that Qianqin can see the combat effectiveness of my Beifu soldiers, and delay his pace to the south, as for Huan Xuan and Yang Yan, we can only hope that they can take care of the overall situation!" Wei Jie, helplessly, said.

"After all, if the former Qin army takes the opportunity to go south, even if the Jingzhou army and the Yongzhou army are united, I am afraid that it will be difficult to be an opponent, Huan Xuan should have this self-knowledge!"

"Hehe, Xiaojie, you underestimated Huan Xuan's ambition, or rather, he underestimated his desire that had been buried in his heart for many years, and if he was really a self-aware person, he would not have forced Uncle Wang Gong to go into the wilderness earlier!"

Speaking of Yang Yanqi, Xie Xuan just sneered disdainfully, but when it came to Huan Xuan, Xie Xuan had a dignified face, because although Huan Xuan was arrogant, he was indeed a person with arrogant capital, whether it was wisdom or military ability, it was comparable to Xie Xuan!

"Huan Xuan is an arrogant adventurist, as long as there is a possibility of success, he will do his best, talk, I still haven't figured out why Uncle decided to go on the Northern Expedition, Huan Xuan's personality should be better than me!"

"I'm even worried that before Xuchang City is captured, Jiankang City has already fallen into the hands of Huan Xuan!"

Wei Jie thought to himself, it would be strange if you understood what your uncle, who was respected by countless people, thought, but said: "Now it can only be faster than Huan Xuan, just to capture Xuchang, I can't be in a hurry, Wei Jie wants to remind Xuan Shuai, now that the enemy is current, it's better not to be distracted by him!" ”

Xie Xuan shook his head with a smile, patted Wei Jie's shoulder, and did not speak.

…

After the Beifu soldiers and the Yuzhou army were integrated into an army, they had more than 80,000 foot soldiers, nearly 15,000 cavalry, and 10,000 water divisions.

After the Jin army arrived at the city of Xuchang, just rested for a day, the second day launched a strong attack on Xuchang City, although the defensive equipment in Xuchang City is readily available, but the Qiang army is not good at defending the city of generals, the soldiers are even more resistant to the stubborn defense, in the face of the Beifu soldiers of various siege equipment in turn, Xuchang City suffered heavy casualties, the Jin army in several rounds of stone throwing and oil attacks, but also used the ladder to attack the city wall of Xuchang City!

This siege battle, mainly to the Beifu soldiers, the Yuzhou army from the rear strategy, straight to the dark sky, blood flowed like a river, after two days and two nights, the siege of the unsuccessful Beifu soldiers only dropped the corpses of thousands of soldiers, temporarily retreated!

Yao Chang wanted to go out of the city to pursue when the Beifu soldiers retreated, but he was afraid of the Yuzhou army and the 10,000 cavalry of the Beifu soldiers, so he could only give up and let the Beifu soldiers re-encamp outside Xuchang City, looking for an opportunity to attack the city again.

In this battle, the Beifu soldiers lost nearly 5,000 people, and the Qiang army in Xuchang lost nearly 20,000 people, most of whom died in the large-scale attack of the siege equipment, although there were still more than 100,000 defenders in the city, but Yao Chang still had no bottom in his heart, worried that Xie Xuan still had a backhand, and sent a letter for help to Chang'an, the former Qin Emperor's capital, as soon as the siege stopped!

"Tell Xuan Shuai, half an hour ago, the Qiang people's rescue riders have left the city at the same time from the four gates of Xuchang City!"

In Xie Xuan's tent, Xie Xuan, Xie Yan, and the three supreme commanders of the Wei Rank are all here, and it is Liu Yu who was transferred by Xie Xuan from Liu Jiaozhi's side to speak at this moment.

"Good, didn't alarm them, did you?" Xie Xuan nodded slightly and said.

"Back to Xuanshuai, there are two rides out of the city in the direction of the West Gate, and there is only one ride in the other city gates, which should be deliberately done by Yao Chang!" Liu Yu said respectfully.

"In order to make Yao Chang not suspicious, the last general has already taken down all the other three scattered horsemen from the city gate, and the two scattered horsemen in the direction of the west gate have also taken down one person!"

"Xiaoyu is very thoughtful and does a good job!" Xie Xuan nodded appreciatively.

He originally thought that he should not alarm the Qiang people who asked for help, so as not to arouse Yao Chang's vigilance, but Liu Yu's method was obviously more effective, Yao Chang sent two horsemen from the direction of the West Gate, and the other city gates only sent one horse each, the purpose was to paralyze the scouts of the Beifu soldiers and successfully send the message for help.

Liu Yu's move is to plan and give Yao Chang a reassurance!

"Xiaoyu, next you personally go to Chang'an to set up control, two hundred miles away the northwest direction to Xuchang all the avenues under your control, understand?"

"The last general commands!" Liu Yu loudly promised and then pushed open the tent door and walked out, although the reinforcements of the former Qin will not come so quickly, but it will take time to set up control, not to mention that the road to Xuchang is not one!

"Xiao Jie, I finally know why you look at this Liu Yu differently and favor him, this person not only has extremely outstanding military talents, but also has an extremely delicate mind!" Xie Yan looked at Liu Yu's back and said to Wei Jie.

"Wei Jie's ability to see Liu Yu's ability is also thanks to An Gong's old man!" Wei Jie laughed and said perfunctorily.

"If it weren't for his old man giving me a five-phase strange book, how could I know Liu Yu's ability!"
