After the ninth town of the Zhao army cut into the Hedong Mansion from the flank and cut off the rear road of the army on the front line of the Hedong Mansion, the people of the Zhao army began to contact Yang Luo, the commander of the Hedong Mansion.

No matter what faction Yang Luo is, but as the commander of the first army, he has been overheaded, and the people he can control are only one out of ten, and his heart at the moment will definitely not be any better.

Therefore, when they had a deep relationship with them in the past for a few days, they secretly revealed the meaning of their connection with the Zhao army to Yang Luo, and persuaded him to surrender to the Zhao army. Yang Luo didn't directly agree at first, but he didn't severely punish these persuaders. Zhao Jun's people naturally understood that this Yang Luo didn't dare to tear his face with Zhao Jun at the moment, and wanted to leave a way back for himself.

In this regard, Zhao Linxin, who was in charge of the war in Hedong Mansion, understood that Yang Luo already had the intention of surrendering in his heart. Otherwise, it would not have been a mere ambiguous answer, without punishing those who persuade. Immediately, he ordered the army to go out from the rear of Hedong Mansion to the north and west, and to link Dayang, Hebei, Puban, Fenyin, Puzhou and other places, along the line of the Yellow River, to completely cut off the rear road of the defenders of Hedong Prefecture.

Dayang, Hebei, Puban, Fenyin, and Puzhou were taken by the Zhao army, which means that the Luo army in Hedong Mansion has no way to retreat when it goes south and west. It is already impossible to return to Dongyongzhou and Chang'an in the west. In particular, after the Zhao army collected all the ships along the Yellow River and occupied all the bridges, not only did the Luo army in Hedong Province have no way to retreat, but even the grain and grass materials could not be transported to the rear.

In the north, the Fourth Town Army of the Zhao Army Praetorian Guard Army also killed from Bingzhou to the north of Hedong Mansion, and the front line of the Luo army such as Wen Xi and Xie Liang made the pressure on the Luo army suddenly increase. In just a few days, the Zhao army attacked all parts of Hedong Prefecture, causing the Luo army to suffer a lot of losses. In particular, Zhao Jun's earth-shattering thunder and bed crossbow made all the Luo troops defending the city miserable. The earth-shattering thunder is paired with a catapult, and the Luo army on the city wall is completely a covering attack, and it is undefinable and unstoppable.

Although in the past few days, the Zhao army did not break through the city, nor did it go to the city to fight, but for the Luo army defending the city, this is even more unacceptable than the Zhao army attacking the city.

In the city of Anyi, the generals and colonels of the Luo army gathered together to discuss the current situation. In the face of the strong attack of the Zhao army, the irresistible weapons of the Zhao army, and the various problems such as the cut off of the back road, the generals and generals of the Luo army and the commander of the Luo army in Hedong Prefecture were helpless.

Looking at these Wu Benlang generals who didn't talk about themselves in the past, they were all restless and panicked at the moment, Yang Luo couldn't help but feel a sense of relief in his heart. At the beginning, he underestimated me, not to mention that I put it in his eyes, but now he is also anxious, and he deserves it.

"Da Sima, you are the commander of the whole army, and the current situation is like this, what should we do?" The first Wu Benlang asked Yang Luo, who was sitting in the main seat without saying a word and had an expressionless face.

There are more than 30,000 soldiers in Hedong Province, which are divided into six provinces, one province with 5,000 soldiers, and each province has five battalions. And Yang Luo has been stationed in Hedong Mansion for more than two years, and with the support of important ministers in Luoyang City, he can only completely control the Yifu and buy the Yifu. Therefore, on weekdays, military and political affairs cannot be interfered with at all, and they are completely just decorations.

Yang Luo replied expressionlessly: "When the Zhao army is coming, naturally the whole army will move forward bravely and fight to the death with the Zhao army. ”

The third mansion Wu Benlang frowned at Su He, and said coldly: "Move forward bravely and fight to the death?" Da Sima Ke knows the current situation in Hedong Mansion and the situation of the Zhao army? Can you know the situation around Hedong Mansion, can you know the situation in Dongyongzhou? Now, not to mention far away, in our north, there are more than 30,000 Zhao troops, and in the rear, there are still 20,000 Zhao troops who have cut off our rear road and cut off our supply of grain, grass and materials. How to fight? Could you please show me? ”

Su He said this, which was clearly a superficial dissatisfaction with Yang Luo. And the rest of the generals and the two deputy marshals, the marching commander Shi and others were also extremely dissatisfied.

Yang Luo said with a surprised face: "The back road is cut off? This marshal is not clear, and you also know that since Ben Shuai has been sitting here, he has not been very clear about all the military affairs of Hedong Mansion, and he has no way to figure it out. Therefore, the military affairs of Hedong Mansion have never been clearly understood. ”

Su He and the others' faces suddenly turned blue and red, and when Yang Luo said this, he was clearly saying that they would put Yang Luo in the air and not let Yang Luo interfere in military affairs. Now something big is wrong, and the other party's ignorance is also caused by you. If you want to question him, let's figure out your own problem first.

Yang Luo didn't stop there, and continued: "What about tens of thousands of Zhao Jun? Our army does not also have 30,000 soldiers, and in addition to the geographical advantage, tens of thousands of young men can be recruited at any time. Since the generals said that the back road has been cut off, what else are you thinking about? What else is being discussed? Fight to the death. On weekdays, the generals don't all say it, and the Zhao army on the opposite side is not to be afraid. Now, the Zhao army on the other side is coming, and the generals should fulfill what you said in the past, so that the Zhao army looks good, why quarrel again? ”

"All the generals are cronies under the command of the king, and this Hedong Mansion is related to the safety of Luoyang. Its importance, there is no need to say more, since the war has begun, what more can I say? Serving the king's grace with a battle to the death is what the generals should do now. And not as it is now, arguing here. If it goes on like this, the way has not been figured out, and Zhao Jun has already killed in front of the gate. Yang Luo sneered and said sarcastically. Speaking of which, he didn't want to see Hedong Mansion taken by Zhao Jun, nor did he want to see Dongyongzhou fall into the hands of Zhao Jun. But now, Hanoi Mansion has fallen, and Luoyang has been placed in front of the Zhao army without hindrance, and the garrison of Hedong Mansion can stop it.

Do you really want to surrender to the Zhao army? Is the king of Luoyang really not good? Is this the end of Dayan? At this time, Yang Luo's mood was also complicated and chaotic. He also knew that even if he held the power of Hedong Mansion and was not overridden by these people, he was afraid that it would be difficult to resist the advance of the Zhao army. After all, most of the main forces of the Luo army are still in the south.

At the beginning, not only to control Jingzhou, but also to resist the attack of the Shu army, most of the elite soldiers of the Luo army went south. Originally, the king of Luoyang was ready to send people and horses to the north again, but after learning that the Zhao army and the Chu army were going to fight, he temporarily stopped this idea.

Yang Luo's words, the faces of the generals were extremely ugly. On a normal day, he would never say that. But at this moment, he no longer had any hope for the situation in front of him, so he poured out all the dissatisfaction in his heart.

After speaking, Yang Luo directly left the Assassin's Mansion on the grounds of going back to familiarize himself with the battle situation, making the faces of the generals of the various prefectures extremely ugly. And the only martial artist of the Sixth Mansion who was under Yang Luo's control, his eyes flashed, and he also left with Yang Luo.

Hearing the angry scolding from behind him, Yang Luo secretly sneered in his heart. Scolding? No matter how angry you scold now, you won't be able to solve the problem.

"Da Sima, if you leave like this, I'm afraid all the generals are extremely dissatisfied, this is ...... for Da Sima"

"Li Zijian, didn't you come out with you? Aren't you afraid that these generals will ask you questions in the future? Looking at Li Zijian, who followed, Yang Luo asked with a smile.

"In the future? Da Sima, is there a future in this Hedong Mansion? Today, Da Sima is doing this, but I am afraid that he can also see that this Hedong Mansion cannot hold on, and now, Hedong Mansion is surrounded on all sides, and all of them are the men and horses of the Zhao army, and there is no way to retreat. It's just that the Zhao army has not yet launched a full-scale attack on Hedong Mansion. Immediately, Li Zijian said in a deep voice, "Da Sima, the last general is your cronies, Da Sima has a way out, don't forget the last general." ”

Yang Luo paused and said in a deep voice: "A way out?" Ben Shuai is just a coach who has been set up, what way out can he have? ”

Li Zijian said in a low voice: "No matter what way out Da Sima has, the last general and the 5,000 soldiers under his command are willing to follow Da Sima and obey Da Sima's arrangement." ”

Listening to Li Zijian's words, Yang Luo was about to refute it, but he thought about it and said with a smile: "It's okay, if you are really willing to go with Ben Shuai, if Ben Shuai has a way out, he will definitely take you and your subordinates." ”

Yang Luo, who answered the mansion, pondered for a long time, and finally decided to contact Zhao Jun. Hedong Mansion has no way to hold on, not because of its own inaction, but because of its inability.

Hearing that Yang Luo was willing to negotiate with Zhao Jun, those big businessmen who had been bought by Zhao Jun immediately reported to Zhao Jun. The one who negotiated with Yang Luo this time was the military commander of Zhao Junzhen. Without Yang Luo mushrooms, Captain Zhao directly asked Yang Luo to lead his troops to surrender. Otherwise, the Zhao army will launch a full-scale attack on Hedong Province. The main reason why the Zhao army has been in a stalemate with the defenders of Hedong Mansion for so long is that the large army of the Zhao army in the north has not yet arrived. Now, the army of Zhao has arrived, and the time for a decisive battle has arrived. If Yang Luo could not surrender unconditionally, then what awaited the defenders of Hedong Mansion was a large-scale attack by the Zhao army.

Originally, Yang Luo still wanted to negotiate some conditions with Zhao Jun, after all, there are still more than 25,000 soldiers in Hedong Mansion, as well as more than 20,000 young men recruited, and even 20,000 or 30,000 young men can continue to be recruited. However, Captain Zhao Jundu's toughness made Yang Luo have to dispel these thoughts.

After reaching the intention of surrender with the Zhao army, Yang Luo expressed his willingness to personally lead the army to the front line to resist the Zhao army and repay the kindness of the king of Luoyang with a death battle when the generals of Hedong Mansion discussed the situation.

At this moment, the generals and colonels of various provinces have already been shocked by the strength of Zhao Jun, although Yang Luo's move made some people feel surprised and even suspicious, but in the case that others have no way and are not willing to fight Zhao Jun head-on. Yang Luo's suggestion was supported and even supported by other generals.

Yang Luo led Li Zijian, in addition to the remaining troops stationed on the front line, to support Wenxi County at the northeastern end of Hedong Province to resist the Zhao army. Of course, without knowing what Yang Luo was thinking, Wenxi County and the more than 7,000 soldiers from the second and third prefectures did not evacuate, and at the same time, they were also guarding against Yang Luo and the 3,000 reinforcements he commanded.

However, Yang Luo was the commander after all, and he had been guarding the city wall in Wenxi County for several days, which also made other Luo Army officers in Wenxi County relax their attention to Yang Luo. And at this time, Yang Luo took advantage of the time to defend the city, opened the city gate, and let more than 10,000 Zhao troops outside the city enter the city.

For the defenders of Wenxi County, the Zhao army broke the city, which meant that they could not occupy the geographical advantage. But the most serious blow to the defenders was that Yang Luo, the commander of Hedong Mansion, raised the banner of surrender. In an instant, the resistance of the soldiers of Wenxi County was about to reach a low point. And the young men of Wenxi County, who were recruited, collapsed directly.

As a result, the Zhao army easily took the northeast gateway of Hedong Mansion with only more than four or five thousand casualties, so that Anyi City, the seat of Hedong Mansion, appeared directly on the southward passage of the Zhao army. And the more than 10,000 soldiers in Wenxi County, in addition to Yang Luo's 3,000, the remaining more than 7,000 soldiers, after killing 2,000, the remaining 5,000 surrendered directly.

Wen Xi was taken, and then Zhao Jun broke several cities south of Wen Xi, especially under the banner of Yang Luo, the opportunity was taken all over the country without blood. In this way, not only did the complete defense line in the north of Hedong Mansion be torn apart, but also had a fatal impact on the morale of the entire Hedong Mansion.

When the news of Yang Luo's surrender reached Anyi and various cities, it was like a thunderbolt falling from the sky, making the generals and commanders in Anyi City, as well as the civil officials such as the Assassin Shi, stunned and dumbfounded. Many civil officials scolded loudly, and many generals and colonels were even more shocked. However, the Zhao army would not stop its actions because of the various actions of the officials of Hedong Prefecture, and the Praetorian Guard of the Fourth Town in the north immediately took advantage of the situation to move south, attacking various cities in Hedong Prefecture, and dismembering the defense system of the Luo army in Hedong Prefecture.

After holding out for five days, the whole line of Hedong Mansion collapsed, the Zhao army had not yet attacked in a big way, and the siege equipment had not yet arrived, but some defenders of the city began to surrender. In this way, let the rest of the cities follow suit, and as a result, the baggage team of the Zhao army has not yet arrived, and the Hedong Mansion has fallen into the hands of the Zhao army.

The ninth town of the town soldiers and the fourth town of the forbidden army did not stop, but left some people to take over the place and wait for the follow-up officials to arrive. The army, on the other hand, immediately crossed the Yellow River through the ships contributed by the merchants of Hedong Province, and went straight to Hongnong, Shaanxian, Huxian, Lushi and other places east of Hangu Pass, and attacked the area between the east of Luoyang and Hangu Pass.

These areas are located east of Hangu Pass and west of Luoyang. In addition, Huangchi, Xin'an, Yiyang, Luhun and other places are the Hongnong Mansion in the east of Luoyang, which is also the western barrier of Luoyang. In the past, when the king of Hanzhong and the king of Luoyang divided Yongzhou and took Hangu Pass as the boundary, the Luo army also deployed heavy troops here to guard against the army under the command of the king of Hanzhong in Hangu Pass. However, since then, after the relationship between the king of Hanzhong and the king of Luoyang gradually became closer, the troops here were gradually deployed on the northern front, or south to Jingzhou. Therefore, the Zhao army of the two towns went all the way to the south, which could be smooth and abnormal.

However, Zhao Jun's original plan was Hangu Pass. It's a pity that although there are not many garrisons in Hongnongfu, there are still a lot of troops in Hangu Pass, especially after Zhao Xun returned from the Western Regions, Hangu Pass is the eastern barrier of Chang'an, and the garrison here has increased a lot. After the unsuccessful raid, the generals of the town army, Zhao Lin and Zhao Jie, did not continue to attack Hangu Pass. And the strategy set by Zhao Xun is also to take what can be taken, and to abandon if it can't.

The total amount of writing was conquered by the Zhao army, which was equivalent to severing the connection with the king of Hanzhong and cutting off the way for Luoyang to retreat westward, leaving Luoyang surrounded on all sides.

And at this moment, Luoyang has already fallen into chaos. After the 10th Town of the Zhen Army and the 5th Town of the Forbidden Army directly took Hanoi Province, the 10th Town directly crossed the river to the south, broke Xincheng, Liangxian, Yanshi, and Wushi, bypassed Luoyang, and directly killed the south of Luoyang. At this moment, the Zhao army on the Yuzhou side also attacked from the middle and attacked from the north of Songshan to the west into the boundary of East Yongzhou.

Although the Luo army was between it and Yuzhou, it also laid heavy troops. However, the defenders did not expect that the Zhao army would suddenly attack at this time. The Zhao army, which had been prepared for a long time, broke Gongxian, Chenggao, and Xingyang in conjunction with the Tenth Town in the south of Luoyang, and joined forces to encircle Luoyang.

The Fifth Town of the Forbidden Army went directly east from Hanoi Province and attacked Tiger Pass. I have to say that the Tiger Prison has been repaired many times by the Yongjun in the past, and it is already a dangerous pass. However, Tiger Prison is defended from the outside, that is, to the east. Especially when the Yongjun repaired the Tiger Prison Pass in the past, what was aggravated was the heightening and thickening of the eastern city wall. But for the interior, which is to the west, it is far from the same. And at this moment, the fifth town of the Zhao army forbidden army inside is attacking, and outside, the Zhao army in Yanzhou is also moving.

Rao is like this, and the Tiger Prison Pass is not so easy to capture, although Zhao Jun used catapults and used earth-shaking thunder. However, the Tiger Prison Pass is still a natural danger for Zhao Jun. Of course, if the Zhao army attacks with all its might, this tiger prison will definitely not be able to hold it for a long time. However, Zhao Jun had to pay a heavy price to do so.

Zhao Xun naturally didn't want his soldiers to be consumed in the siege, especially at such a dangerous level as Xianghu Pass. Now, Zhao Jun has entered the Tiger Prison Pass, and this Tiger Prison Pass is not necessary for Zhao Jun. Even if the Tiger Prison is not in his own hands, but the east and west sides of the Tiger Prison are his own territory, what difference does it make in whose hands this Tiger Prison is locked in? Of course, this does not mean that Zhao Jun will sit idly by.

On the one hand, the internal and external Zhao armies forced the defenders of the Tiger Prison Pass with powerful soldiers, letting them know that they were now the turtles in the urn. On the one hand, the surrendered officials of the various cities in the west were also asked to go to the Tiger Prison Pass to persuade the defenders. The Zhao army didn't want them to have a direct effect, but the successive appearance of city officials on the Tiger Prison Pass was enough to make the defenders understand that the cities west of the Tiger Prison Pass had been occupied by the Zhao army.

At the same time that the ninth town of the town soldiers and the fourth town of the forbidden army went south to take the western half of Hongnong Mansion, the defenders of the Tiger Prison Pass finally could not resist the pressure of the Zhao army.

The Tiger Prison Pass, the strongest checkpoint in the east of Luoyang, was taken by Zhao Jun, so that between Luoyang and Yanzhou in the east, and between Yuzhou and Luoyang in the southeast, there was no barrier and practiced together. After the Tiger Prison Pass was taken, the soldiers and all kinds of grain and grass materials waiting in the land of Yuzhou suddenly went west in a steady stream to carry out the final siege of Luoyang.
