292. Jinyang

>,!

Gongsun Zhan's last Yi County originally belonged to Youzhou Zhuo County, Yongle two years (AD 9O) changed to belong to the Hejian State, administratively has actually been included in Jizhou, west of the Taihang Mountains, originally in the east entrance of the Puyin Ancient Road.

Suddenly hearing that Deng Ji's three male armies went north to merge with the state to provoke a war, Yuan Shao was shocked, and he was afraid that the three families of Gongsun Montenegro and Sizhou conspired to plot against their own family, not only did they recall the Wenchou Zhang He sent before, but also ordered the second son Yuan Xi to lead the Youzhou army and horses to forget Yi County to help in the war, not to break it, but to lock the enemy of the white horse Gongsun firmly in Yijing.

With the strong army of Sizhou involved, the war in the state could not be dealt with by the children, so Yuan Shao decided to go to the aid in person.

Just which path to take?

According to the scout's report, Huguan has been jointly garrisoned by the Sizhou Wuwei Army and the Black Mountain Pang Zhen Department, which is very difficult to gnaw, and the mouth of the mouth cannot be crossed; Slightly closer is Jingcheng, but although Zhang Yan withdrew from Taihang, there are still thousands of henchmen in Jingcheng Road to guard Tumen Pass and the Great Wall Pass of the Ancient Zhongshan Kingdom (Niangzi Pass in later generations), although the soldiers are not many, but "the road of Jingcheng, the car can not be square, and the riding can not be in a column", the whole passage is only a line of sheep intestines, and it is not a short time for the army to break through the past.

There are Deng Ji's military horses in Fukou, and Jing Cheng is still in the hands of Zhang Yan, so he didn't dare to take risks at the beginning, and stayed in Qiong Fu to give Xun Chen to guard Yecheng, and led 30,000 military horses, accompanied by Gao Lan, Zhu Ling, Zhang Yi, Zhang Nanma, Yan and Guo Tuxin, and other military generals, and went north to go around Puyin and Flying Fox, and by the way, deter Gongsun Zhan.

It's just that this way, first to pass the entire Jizhou from south to north, and then bypass Taihang is only Yanmen County, and when you arrive in Taiyuan to participate in the war, it will take a month, and you can only hope that Gao Gan Yuan Shang will hold this time.

Yuan Shao's army had not yet hit the road, Xu Huang and Zhao Yun left Zang Ba and Pang Zhen to guard Huguan, and went north with Yang Feng and others to join Zhang Yan.

Although Yuan Shang was vigorous, he also knew that the Sizhou army and horses were difficult to beat, and he did not dare to intercept the mountain road halfway through the Shangdang, so he led the army to join the Gao Gan. Let Dangkou Xiao ride safely into the Jinzhong Flatland.

Jizhou reinforcements can finally arrive, and the Xiliang war cannot wait for long, and it is precisely because of this that the battle needs to be decided, the two military divisions will also transfer the Xiao cavalry army to participate in the war, Zhao Yun understands tightly, and said to Xu Huang on the way: "Gongming is the tiger of Henan, and his reputation is far and wide." The battle of Bingzhou was originally a guest army, and the military strategy asked General Xu to send a transfer, since Zhao Yun and below, there would be no disrespect! ”

Now under Deng Ji's command, the first-class generals are Tai Shici, Xu Huang, Zhang Liao, and Zhao Yun, each commanding a strong army, and the four of them are on an equal footing. This time, the two armies of Dangkou Xiao attacked and merged with the state. But he didn't get Deng Jiling, and it was clear who would take the lead, Zhao Yun was ceding power.

In terms of age, Zhao Yun is a little older, but when it comes to qualifications, Xu Huang is far ahead, and this is not the time to be humble, Xu Huang responded: "Everything can be decided, but there are no two orders in the army." Huang will trespass one or two, return to Chang'an, and then ask for guilt in front of the lord's seat! Brother Zilong should also care, Dangkou Xiao rode all the state army, regardless of each other, how can there be a home and guest army? ”

Zhao Yun laughed: "Yes! This is a cloud gaffe! ”

The Fourth Army of Sizhou has four Guoyi schools, and Deng Ji has the highest hard work of Che Huang Xu Sheng, and he is rewarded as a general. Guan Hai Sun Guan is just Captain Guoyi. They are General Guo Yi, and they are one rank higher. Che Huang is in the Dangkou Army, Xu Sheng is in the Xiao Cavalry Army, this time they met again, when the two generals were riding and saddled, Xu Sheng asked: "Take the lead in the battle, compare with each other?" ”

Che Huang glanced at him squintingly. There was a slight "um" in the nasal cavity, which was considered to be the answer.

The rest of the lieutenants and military officers such as Deng Xian, Gong Du, Cao Xing, Hao Zhao, Wu Pu and Duan Xuan, who heard it on his side, all laughed and laughed.

Behind the four generals and six captains, 20,000 black robes rolled long and short snow halberds and rushed forward. Look at the neatness of people's armor and equipment. The military horses are majestic, but there are still small ones in their own team holding wooden sticks, hoes, pickaxes and other things, and an old thief on the left side of the road said enviously to his companions: "Deng Gong's army armor is fine and horse-male, when will I wait to get such an appearance?" ”

The companion rolled his eyes and replied, "How do I know?" Or just wishful thinking, hopeless in the end! ”

——

When they arrived in Yangyi, Xu Huang and others learned that now the army of the senior cadre Yuan Shang had retreated to Jinyang to hold on to Yuan Shao's reinforcements, Zhang Yan led the infantry to stay for the Sizhou army and horses and the old and weak of Montenegro, and the cavalry was sent to the county towns to take the land, and they couldn't wait to control the field of Taiyuan County.

The surrounding small counties, not to mention the short city wall, and only have to be guarded by hundreds of county soldiers, do not have to worry about the Black Mountain cavalry, wait for the two armies to meet, work together, and cross the Fenshui until they besiege Jinyang.

Jinyang is a famous city in the north, located at the confluence of Fenshui and Jinshui, the north end of the Jinzhong Basin, there have been several expansions in history, during the period of Zhao Kuangyin in the Northern Song Dynasty, several times failed to conquer the city, to Zhao Guangyi to destroy the Northern Han Dynasty that the capital is here, to Jinyang "the prosperity is the aftermath, the decline is the first rebellion", the city is completely destroyed by burning water with fire, and later Pan Meicai rebuilt Taiyuan New Town in the northeast of the old city, which is today's Shanxi Mansion.

That is, the siege of Jinyang, the war began. The brave soldiers and auxiliary soldiers are all elite cavalry, and their lives are precious, and the siege war has its own Black Mountain thieves to fill their lives, and the Sizhou army does not have to step forward.

However, Jinyang is the old capital of Zhao State, after the unification of Qin, it has been Taiyuan County and Prefecture Administration, although it has not experienced the expansion of the Western Jin Dynasty and the addition of the Northern Qi, it is also extremely strong, and tens of thousands of horses are stationed inside, and the siege of the city for three days, the Black Mountain troops suffered heavy casualties, but there is no hope of breaking the city.

Some people say that Zhang Yandao: "After decades of famine and war, Jinyang also has little food, and the high-ranking cadre Yuan Shang has many soldiers, trapped in the city, and there will be a shortage of food for a long time." The siege is very urgent, they are trapped in the beast still fighting, it is urgent to go down, it is better to stay in the Sizhou army in this siege city, the general from the attack on Yanmen Dingxiang, the local population to block Yuan Shao's reinforcements, wait for Jinyang food shortage, or can be obtained without a fight! ”

Zhang Yan moved, so he asked Xu Huang and Zhao Yun to enter the account to discuss.

After fighting for a few days, Xu Zhao and the two led the army to supervise the battle outside, and the cavalry such as the defense of the senior cadres was prominent, and when they saw that the attack of the Black Mountain thieves was gradually weakening, their hearts were already anxious.

Zhang Yan told the people what they said, and Xu Huang and Zhao Yun stopped in unison: "This matter is absolutely not feasible!" ”

After glancing at each other, Xu Huang replied truthfully: "A certain family lord has an order, this battle is limited to the end of July, and no matter what the result is, the two armies will have to retreat to Chang'an to stand by!" ”

Xu Huang told the truth, and he had already understood that the urgent situation of Deng Ji's west was exposed to Zhang Yan and others, which meant that the days of the help of the two armies of Dangkou Xiao were less than a month, and the time was not at all as good as besieging Jinyang to the point of lack of food.

"If Montenegro loses, it will be difficult for Pang Shuangji to defend the party alone, and Mu An will ignore Sizhou and only want to be cool in the west?"

Xu Huang shook his head, still telling the truth: "If the state is defeated, the Hanoi Panshi Army should enter Jizhou, besiege Yecheng with the Wuwei Army, and force Yuan Shao to save himself!" ”

This means that no matter what, Dangkou Xiaoqi will leave at the end of July, with the army of Hanoi and the "Wuwei Army" of Huguan forcing Yecheng, Yuan Shao really did not dare to attack the south again, but there was no black mountain thief at that time.

Zhang Yan couldn't hide the disappointment on his face, Du Changxiang was friendly with Deng Ji, and at this time he could only look at the sky with white eyes, looking like he didn't care about himself. On the other side, Yang Feng stared at him and said: "Jinyang is low, we have a lot of labor in the army, if we want to fight a battle, it is better to lead Jin Fen Er to flood his whole city!" ”

This time, Zhang Yan, Xu Huang, and Zhao Yun shook their heads together: "No!" ”

Or Zhang Yan explained to his own love general: "If this place is ruled by us in the future, how can it make the lives miserable and arouse the wrath of the heavens and the resentment of the people? Second, this matter has been done since ancient times, and Taishi Gong remembers and understands: knowing that the Han Wei San clan attacked the Zhao clan of Jinyang, diverted water to irrigate the city, and the city wall was left with six feet, and it still did not collapse, which shows the strength of Jinyang. Zhi's flooding of the city failed, but was sought by the Zhao family, said to move Han Wei, and flooded the Zhi's military camp together, the Zhi's died, and the three families of Zhao, Wei and Han were divided! ”

Shangdang has been promised to Pang Shuangji, if you occupy Taiyuan, and the state is still half of the hand, the good situation is in front of you, but this is not that it will not be done, Montenegro out of Taihang, so the land is mostly taken by Yuan Shao, it is not easy to go back and be a thief again, Yang Feng couldn't help but squint at Xu Huang Zhao Yun and said: "Jinyang Xiongcheng is full of soldiers, and there is no hope of breaking the city for a few days, and it is filled into many lives of my Montenegro. ”

It was originally Deng Jifang's proposal to jointly send troops to seize the state, but now it looks like this, but Yang Feng is already angry, and he has made up his mind in his heart, if Xu Huang's words are strong, he will provoke his and other soldiers to go forward to attack the city.

This fashion can't collapse, Zhang Yan hurriedly scolded: "It's rude! The two families are advancing and retreating together, so how can they divide each other? ”

This battle was originally to clear the rear for his own family, and it was naturally impossible for Sizhou soldiers to really not contribute, Xu Huang ignored Yang Feng, bowed his head and groaned for a while, and said to Zhang Yan: "There is a plan, maybe you can try!" ”

"What is General Xu's concern about the current situation? Please say so! ”

Xu Huangfang nodded and said: "The city wall of Jinyang is four feet long, and it has been attacking the city for a few days, all because they and others have all the manpower, and the ladder frame will be knocked down in a moment, and it is difficult to climb the city." However, there are still more than 100,000 laborers in your army, and you can make a huge oar and a big shield to block arrows, cover it and fill it with soil under the city, but not more than a day or two, you can get the soil into a gentle slope, in order to climb the city tower for the ladder! ”

"According to the plan, if you don't wait for the city to be broken, I don't know how many casualties I have in Montenegro!" Yang Feng was even more dissatisfied, and sneered: "The world is rumored that Sizhou's soldiers are extremely strong in the world, is that the case? ”

Xu Huang still didn't care about this Black Mountain captain, but responded as usual: "Our two armies each have a shooting sound and a school, both of which can make a hard bow, and when your troops are old and weak to carry the soil, they can shoot at the city tower in front of them; When the earth is piled up, a certain two armies are willing to rush into the city and take nothing from the war! ”

Under such conditions, it is still acceptable to accept the heavy casualties of the old and weak of the army, Yang Feng stopped speaking, Zhang Yan laughed and said: "General Xu!" ”

At the moment, it was agreed that the order was issued in the tent of the Chinese army, and the siege of the city was suspended, and the old and weak soldiers cut down trees to make the big oars and huge shields.
