After the others heard the news, they saw that the soldiers were not poisoned or had convulsions of their limbs, except that they had eaten a little badly, and they also quietly went underground to move food.

And the general who patrols the night is my dear brother Hongji, who is completely blind to this scene, and he doesn't know how much schadenfreude there is

When it was daylight the next day, the news that the grain outside the city was not only not poisonous but also very fragrant began to spread among the army, Wang Shichong was shocked and angry, and wanted to send troops to cut down those soldiers who dared to sneak out of the city to steal food, but Wang Shiyun stopped him to death.

Because at this time, the soldiers who went out of the city to steal food added up to not a thousand but hundreds, if they were all cut down, it would definitely arouse the anger of those soldiers who were already very dissatisfied with the distribution of food.

In the end, Wang Shichong could only give up the idea of killing the hundreds of food thieves, but he repeatedly ordered not to sneak out of the city to steal food, but it didn't have much effect. In particular, many generals just want to get some food for their hungry and hungry subordinates, and if they are too strict, they may be tied up by their soldiers and stuffed with smelly and rancid nests.

And the common people also secretly colluded with their brothers or uncles who were soldiers, and quietly went to steal food by night, and when the situation became more and more serious, almost the whole city wanted to be able to get a mouthful of food that would satisfy their stomachs.

In desperation, Wang Shichong could only send some soldiers to serve as porters, but these soldiers could only go to the city to get food through the hanging basket every time.

During this period, the propaganda army of the Huaxia Empire shouted at Luoyang City every day with a big copper horn outside the city, telling the soldiers and civilians of Luoyang that Wang Shichong was not a good bird, and only my Huaxia Empire was a good person.

And every day, Zheng Jun's morale is falling at the speed of the stock market crash, and Wang Shichong really has no good way to solve the current predicament except for staying in the palace all day long and jumping to his feet and scolding his mother.

Now he can only hope that Dou Jiande can help him, hoping that Dou Jiande's hundreds of thousands of troops can really defeat the powerful revival army of the Chinese Empire to relieve the siege of Luoyang.

Of course, this can only be regarded as his delusion, my mother-in-law who has won a hundred battles will go out in person, not to mention Dou Jiande, even if he is called Dou Shengli, it is not my mother-in-law's food.

However, before the end of the war, no one could predict the result, besieging Luoyang City, watching the change of people's hearts in Luoyang City, while nervously waiting for news from the Tiger Prison.

This time to send troops, Dou Jiande mobilized nearly 500,000 soldiers and horses in one go, known as a million army to the outside world.

After all, this can only appear in ancient times when the intelligence system has not yet been established and developed, and when Ben Gongzi strengthens intelligence work, now, although it cannot be said that he even knows what Dou Jiande wears underwear, but at least he can know who he summoned every day and what orders he issued.

It is already quite good to be able to do this, and now, not to mention Dou Jiande, Wang Shichong, Li Mi and the like, even if it is the side of the lord Jieli Khan, there is also an ambush sent by us in the past.

However, they are located in the desert, too far away from Chang'an, and they are alone in the enemy group, so the information is usually transmitted every few months or once a year to reduce the chance of them being discovered.

And the reason why we were able to know that Jieli Khan intended to invade was due to the timely interrogation of intelligence officers.

In three days, Dou Jiande's 500,000 troops were moved to the vicinity of Tiger Pass. At the beginning, the hundreds of thousands of Xia troops who were ambitious and full of morale immediately launched a strong attack after arriving at the Tiger Prison, but unfortunately, they were not facing an ordinary army, but a professional soldier of Yishui.

The brave and strong, with outrageous combat experience, the Chinese Revival Army relied on the city wall and firmly blocked the Xia army outside the Tiger Prison Pass, attacked for two days, threw down tens of thousands of corpses, but never even climbed the top of the city.

Dou Jiande, who was still upright at the beginning, couldn't help but feel a little worried and anxious at the moment. I have brought hundreds of thousands of troops, but now, but I have been stopped in this tiger prison, I have long heard that there is a very powerful long-range weapon in the army of the Chinese Empire, whether it is Liang Shidu or Liu Wuzhou or even the Turks have suffered from this kind of weapon, if it is said that it is stopped by this kind of thing, it can be said.

But nowadays, there is no such artillery at all, as it is rumored. But there is that kind of black iron bump that makes the scalp tingle, according to the words of the Chinese Reconstruction Army, this thing is called a grenade. It was this kind of terrifying grenade that made countless heroic soldiers of the Xia army fall in a pool of blood without even going up the city wall, making it difficult for hundreds of thousands of troops to advance an inch.

Dou Jiande tried his best tricks, but he couldn't attack the city. Every day, just receiving soldiers who have been maimed or half-maimed by grenades makes them dizzy.

Looking at the solid and tall Tiger Prison Pass, Dou Jiande had hundreds of thousands of troops in vain, but he couldn't come up with an effective means of attack.

For three days, I could only play a tactic of adding fuel every day, taking people's lives little by little.

In the end, Dou Jiande, who had nothing to do, decided to lure the enemy deeper. Well, it can't be said that the strategy of luring the enemy deeper is bad, but the problem is to see who is carrying out such a strategy.

Dou Jiande evacuated the Tiger Prison Pass and stationed troops in Bishui. put on a posture that I can't beat the tiger prison, and I will stay here.

Ignoring the dissuasion of Han Shige, Li Shimin and others, Yaoguang Meizi ordered the troops to march out of the Tiger Prison Pass towards Bishui, and Dou Jiande was so happy that he almost jumped up when he received the news.

Originally, it was because the positional war could not provoke the Chinese Revival Army that it retreated to Bishui stupidly, but what was the result? Just retreated to Bishui, Li Sanniang actually rushed over to challenge. How not to make Dou Jiande surprised and delighted. Dou Jiande then sent Liu Heimin as a general to lead 80,000 elite cavalry to meet the attack, but as a result, the two sides did not distinguish the winner or loser.

In the next few days, Dou Jiande sent troops to attack the camp of the Chinese Empire several times, but there was no way. After several twists and turns, Dou Jiande, who felt more and more bored, decided to withdraw from the army after knowing that he could not make any favorites, but at this moment, Li Sanniang attacked.

Li Sanniang personally led 10,000 elite iron cavalry to launch a surprise attack, continuously rushing left and right in Dou Jiande's military formation, stirring Dou Jiande's army into a pot of porridge, and Li Shimin, Han Shige and other generals also led elite assaults.

In the end, the Xia army could not support it and finally began to rout. And Dou Jiande's Chinese army was the first to break up because of Li Sanniang's repeated attacks, and Dou Jiande was almost captured by Li Sanniang. Its army was routed to Niukouzhu, and when the panic was uncertain, the iron cavalry of the Chinese Revival Army pursued it again.

The Xia army, which was retracting, finally could no longer support such pressure, and the soldiers of the Xia army began to scatter and flee. However, Dou Jiande tried in vain to organize men and horses to resist, but was finally captured by our army.

More than 100,000 of the enemy were captured in this war, and many important military generals of the Xia Army, such as Luo Yi and Liu Heimin, also fell into the hands of our Chinese Empire. I was far away in Luoyang, and I got the news at the first victory of the Xia army's rout, and I was really happy to receive the news that Dou Jiande, Luo Yi, Liu Heimin and other Xia army bigwigs were all captured.

Ben Gongzi was almost overjoyed, his grandmother's, it was so cool, yes, this time the troops were sent to Guanzhong, and the land of Heluo was almost peaceful, and there was almost no decent battle.

And the only big battle, that is, with Dou Jiande, who came to help, what was the result? After this battle, not only will the land of Heluo no longer have any strength to resist, but it is more likely that it will be easily received from the land of Shandong and Hebei.

At this moment, a large number of copper trumpets continued to sound outside Luoyang City, bringing the news of Dou Jiande's defeat and capture into Luoyang City, although Wang Shichong tried his best to suppress it, and told his subordinates that the Chinese Empire must be bragging, and never believe them, Dou Jiande can lead hundreds of thousands of troops over, how can it be so easy to be defeated?

The military of the Chinese Empire is like this, maybe it is just because the war has dragged on for a long time, and it is just a trick to play a trick.

For Wang Shichong's words, although they can't believe it, they are at most half-convinced, and the soldiers don't have any thoughts of fighting, but are more waiting, waiting for the real result of the battle of Tiger Pass.

It's just that what they didn't expect was that those loudspeakers were shouting the truth. But it doesn't matter anymore, anyway, after the prisoners of war are brought in, everything will be revealed to the world, and at that time, the soldiers of Luoyang City, not to mention morale, am afraid that even their courage will all become negative.

Even if Wang Shichong grows a thousand mouths and speaks skillfully by then, there will definitely not be more than a hundred soldiers willing to give him his life.

Just after receiving the information, I hurriedly ordered the transmission of the book, and late at night on the third day, a garrison division that came to reinforce had arrived outside Luoyang City, and a garrison army that was transferred continued to go eastward without stopping, and the most important thing was to cooperate with the troops left behind to clear out the Xia army who were unwilling to surrender.

And we continue to stay under the city of Luoyang and wait, and at the same time, I am already thinking about the issue of moving the capital. I have to say that Chang'an is indeed a good place, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the land is fertile.

But the problem is that compared to Luoyang, it is still too remote, it is not the best place for me to be the best imperial capital, Luoyang is located on the edge of the Yellow River, the river transport is more convenient than Chang'an, the canal is also nearby, in addition, it is located in the plain, extending in all directions, if it is developed, it is definitely not inferior to Chang'an.

The important thing is that the population of Guanzhong is now saturated, and if the imperial capital continues to stay there, I am afraid that it will not take a few hundred years, and Guanzhong will decline due to the depletion of resources, water and soil.
