Body 56, Move troops
The soldiers are fast, and Liu Xiu will do what he says.
That night, while the encirclement of the officers and troops had not yet been completed, the officers and troops outside the south gate of Kunyang City were arranged, and Liu Xiu and other 13 people came out on fast horses.
At that time, the forward troops of the official army had besieged the city with 100,000 people, and it was indeed very difficult to break through from the city.
However, with his extraordinary wisdom and courage, Liu Xiu seized this best and only opportunity to break through.
That night, although the officers and soldiers were outnumbered, they were new to the city, the situation was unfamiliar, the deployment was hasty, and the communication and coordination between them were not necessarily smooth.
Especially at the south gate, the officers and troops came from the north, and the encirclement of it was the last to be completed.
Although the number of Liu Xiu and other breakers is small, they are highly mobile, and with the cover of night, there is still an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Still, it's just a fight, and a fight is inevitable.
Liu Xiu and 13 other people finally managed to rush out of the south gate after a burst of slashing!
(When the Mang army arrived in the city, there were 100,000, and the light and martial arts were almost not allowed to come out.) )
Liu Xiu and 13 others rushed out of the south gate, but did not attract much attention from the officers and soldiers.
At this time, the commanders of the official army, Dasikong Wangyi and Dasitu Wangxun, also soon came to Kunyang City and joined the pioneer Yan You. These two kings are Wang Mang's hall
Brother, he climbed to this position by nepotism.
Because the next facts will prove that except for this relationship with Wang Mang, no one can explain how the two of them got into this position. whereas
The reason why these two brothers can still leave this reputation in history is not only because they completely rely on nepotism to be below one person and above ten thousand, but also because they are still there
They are better equipped than everyone else to clean up their stupidity and ugliness, and they are better equipped than everyone else to mess things up.
When it was reported that a few people had broken through and run out, the second king didn't take it seriously at all. They proudly believe that hundreds of thousands of troops are besieging the city
, run out a few more cadres, no matter what they do, it doesn't matter, and there is no need to make a fuss.
Of course, if they knew that there was Liu Xiu, the founder of the country who buried the Xinmang Dynasty and established the Eastern Han Dynasty, ...... them.
It's Yan You, who is both capable and experienced in battle, and has just suffered the defeat of the Liu family brothers in Yuyang, and has learned the power of the Liu family brothers, and he always feels in his heart
Something is wrong.
He suggested to Wang Yi, saying:
"Kunyang City is small but very strong, and now Liu Xuan, who claims to be the emperor, is not here on the side of Wancheng, if he quickly marches into Wancheng, Liu Xuan and those people are one
will be beaten away; Once Wancheng is taken, Kunyang will naturally submit obediently. ”
(Kunyang City is small but strong, and the one who is false today is in Wan, and he is eager to enter the army, and he will run; Wan defeated, Kunyang self-serving. )
It should be said that Yan You is worthy of being an outstanding general, and his tactical thinking is quite powerful.
At this time in Kunyang, the coalition army was less than 10,000 people, and it was so scared that it always wanted to slip away, as long as the official army took out a small number of troops to surround it without fighting, the coalition army was a step in Kunyang
Dead chess.
From here, only 200 miles to the southwest, is Wancheng. In Wancheng City, the excellent county magistrate Cen Peng is still stubbornly resisting the siege of the main force of the coalition army.
The main force of the coalition army of 100,000 people and the main cadres of the Genshi Dynasty are all in this vicinity, as long as hundreds of thousands of officers and soldiers come to a counter-encirclement of them and lift the siege of Wancheng
It is not too difficult to annihilate the main forces of the coalition forces.
If that's the case, Kunyang can be said to be self-defeating.
As the so-called skin does not exist, the hair will be attached? !
That is to say, according to Lao Yan's path, as long as this one move, the official army will lift the siege of Wancheng, eliminate the Changshi regime and the main force of the coalition army, and take Kun
Yang, will not take much effort, that is, the so-called "one stone and three eagles".
However, Wang Yi is not only proud and despised, but also stupid and incompetent, and he is unwilling to give up the last chance to show his shallowness and cruelty.
As a backbone member of Wang's relatives, he, like his cousin Wang Mang, has always regarded the state as a plaything and the people as grass mustard, and thinks that this encirclement and suppression have started
The rebels, the difference in the balance of forces is so great, there is no suspense in winning easily.
So, Wang Yi couldn't listen to any opinions at all, and said to Yan You triumphantly:
"When I surrounded and suppressed Zhai Yi as General Huya a few years ago, I was criticized by the imperial court because I didn't capture him alive. Now we rate millions
How can you explain that you can't take this small city when you encounter it? That doesn't show our power. We're going to break down this city and kill all the people.
Stepping on their blood to continue to march into Wancheng, the front team is singing, and the team behind is dancing, isn't it a relaxed and happy thing? ”
("Slaughter this city first, enter with blood, sing and dance before and after, don't care about the unpleasant evil!") ”)
Wang Yi said that the encirclement and suppression of Zhai Yi, we also introduced earlier, that is, in 7 AD, Dongjun Taishou Zhai Yi launched an anti-reckless armed uprising, and the army was defeated and committed suicide.
At this point, I don't know where to start with the infinite anger and contempt in my heart!
Wang Yi is as shallow and cruel as his cousin Wang Mang, the difference is that Wang Mang always pretends to be when he plays with the official weapons of the state and cares about people's lives
It looks like the world is for the public and the people are wholeheartedly. And Wang Yi's hypocrite index obviously can't reach that level, he is unconcealed and naked.
As enemies of the people, the two of them have the same essence and different styles!
Who can stop them?
Who can stop the recurrence of the tragedy they have created?
I want to ask the sky: If you want to flatten these two brothers and prevent the recurrence of the tragedy, is it to mobilize the common people to rise up and rebel? Is it waiting for a hero like Liu Xiu to appear?
Or what kind of mechanism should be established so that guys like their brothers and sons don't have a chance to be cadres at all?
Let's take a look at it for now.
Wang Yi, with a shallow appearance that was rare in his position, brutally launched an encirclement and attack on Kunyang City.
The officers and soldiers surrounded the city dozens of floors, and the camp tents of the garrison were set up in hundreds; They are digging tunnels and ramming walls; They use cloud carts that are more than ten feet high
Overlooking the city, 10,000 crossbows were fired indiscriminately, and arrows rained down on the soldiers of the coalition army.
For a time, inside and outside Kunyang City, flags covered the wilderness, dust reached the sky, and the sound of drums and horns came dozens of miles away.
The allied soldiers barely defended with the strong city walls, and when they came out to fetch water, they had to carry the door panels on their backs (the city was drawn by the households).
The situation is at stake!
Wang Feng and the others were very frightened and asked to surrender.
At this time, Wang Yi and Wang Xun once again showed their shallowness: they did not accept surrender.
The two brothers thought that it would be very fast to enter the city and wash Kunyang in blood, and they were very proud and arrogant.
(Xun, Yi thinks that the merit is missing, and the spirit is very easy.) )
At this time, Yan You was still relatively sober, and he suggested to Wang Yi again:
"The Art of War" says: The siege of the city is a failure. We should now leave a gap in the encirclement and deliberately let the people in the city run out a few and tie the joint
The news of this critical situation of the army spread, causing panic among their attacking troops, which is beneficial to both of our battlefields. ”
It should be said that Yan You's suggestion is also very powerful.
There is no shortage of people who have fled and surrendered in the coalition army, and now that Liu Xiu is not in the city, Wang Feng wants to surrender but cannot get consent, if there is really an encirclement of the official army
gap, it is not a problem to run out a few or even dozens or hundreds of coalition soldiers.
If these guys who ran out really became volunteer propagandists of the official army, it would be self-evident that the confidence of the coalition forces in Wancheng and other places would be a blow to them.
Fortunately, Wang Yi is not ordinary shallow, and he doesn't listen to Yan You's advice at all.
At this time, the coalition forces in Kunyang City were left with only one choice: desperate resistance!
Because they have been successfully put to death by Wang Yi, the commander of the official army: I want to surrender and you don't accept it, I want to run and I have no chance, I want you not to beat me and you
If you don't agree, what else do you think I can do?
The dog jumped over the wall in a hurry, the rabbit was anxious to bite someone, and the person was anxious to get out, all of which meant it.
The officers and men of the coalition forces had to hold the determination to live and die with Kunyang, and did everything possible to strengthen the defense and do their best to resist the attack of the officers and soldiers.
The tiny Kunyang was like a hard steel nail, firmly absorbing hundreds of thousands of officers and soldiers, making them in a dilemma and strategically falling into a passive state.
At the same time, the insistence of the coalition officers and men in Kunyang made the main force of the official army have no time to take care of other things, and also reduced the pressure on the coalition forces in Dingling, Yuncheng and other places, and more importantly
, which created very favorable conditions for Liu Jiu to command the main force of the coalition army to take Wancheng.
is fighting here, Liu Xiu has not been idle after successfully breaking through with 10 people, he has more important things to do. They didn't dare to slack off, and they hurried up,
Go straight to Dingling and Yuncheng to move troops.
He discussed with the leaders of the coalition forces in these two places that he wanted to quickly pull all the coalition forces here to the front line of Kunyang and participate in the battle to rescue Kunyang.
Yes, that's it, first, you have to bring all the people here, and second, the speed is even faster, faster!
Mind you, this is not an easy task.
First, Kunyang is fighting fiercely, to be precise, it should be the official army fighting fiercely, and the coalition army is passively defending. Almost everyone on both sides believed that the officers and troops would win.
Everyone thinks that in this kind of situation where the Kunyang coalition forces really have no choice but to run away if they want to, the coalition forces from other places will come to the field again, and it will definitely not be a rush to leave
The acupuncture point is tantamount to throwing yourself into a net.
Second, in the eyes of the coalition soldiers in Dingling and Yuncheng, they have multiple options at the moment, among which saving Kunyang is the most decided.
Everyone can divide the looted property and flee for their lives, didn't the coalition forces in Kunyang think like this a few days ago? Everyone can abandon the city and go south to fight Wan
The main forces of the city will meet, after all, there are many people who can be brave when they come together. They can also be pulled out to avoid the main forces of the official army and go to other places to fight guerrillas, and find another way
Develop.
Why go directly to Kunyang to die?
Third, Liu Xiu, you are just a partial general, and you are still being excluded, why should we listen to you? Besides, it's so big.
However, at this critical juncture, Liu Xiu once again showed his peerless talent and successfully handled this very difficult thing: convincing two
All the local coalition forces were dispatched to rescue Kunyang!
Since this incident is almost 2000 years ago, we did not participate, we were not at the scene, and the historical records are not very detailed, so we have no way of knowing Liu
What methods does the show use to unify everyone's thinking and understanding and stimulate everyone's fighting pride?
We can fully imagine that Liu Xiu had nothing at this time except for the war horse under him and the sword in his hand.
He didn't have a lot of money to give to everyone, and he had already lost all his wealth in order to start an incident, and he also gave away more of the spoils of war; He also has no power
made a wish to everyone, and he himself was just a partial general, that is, an errand runner.
The only thing that can make everyone willing to follow him to the land of death and hope is his personality, talent and prestige!
Also, that is the firm belief in the victory of the anti-reckless restoration of the Han cause!
We can also fully imagine how difficult and arduous Liu Xiu is in doing everyone's ideological and political work under the current situation.
At this time, some generals felt that there was a lot of property in the city that had just been defeated, and wanted to leave some troops to guard it.
This is, of course, also completely understandable.
What kind of year is this, whether it is for public or private, everyone needs these things so much. What's more, this is also what everyone worked so hard to get.
However, Liu Xiu seriously and patiently persuaded everyone that since there were too many enemies on the Kunyang side, we must all dispatch:
"If we can defeat the enemy today, we will have ten thousand times more treasures in the future than we have now, and we can even take over the world; If you lose to the enemy
People, we won't even be able to keep our heads, how can we talk about property?! ”
("If the enemy is broken today, the treasure will be ten thousand times greater; If they are defeated, and the princes are left, what treasure do they have? ”)
After listening to Liu Xiu's words, thinking about it carefully, they felt that it was very reasonable, and they all agreed.
As a result, thousands of allied troops from the two places were all dispatched and went straight to Kunyang under the leadership of Liu Xiu.
The rescuers that Liu Xiu moved in were only a few thousand people, and the equipment was not very good, and some of them didn't even have war horses, and this was all he could move
Measured.
If Wang Yi knew that so many people rushed out desperately, and brought in so many rescuers, he would definitely laugh and disdain: What do you mean? Thousands of people came
Touch my million-strong army, send it to death or look for it? Or are you guys joking?
Faced with a hundred times the number of officers and troops than himself, Liu Xiu decided to use Qi Zheng together, not only to be hard, but also to play Wang Yi by the way.
It's not just in troubled times that heroes can be generated, but in troubled times, heroes are easier to generate.
Because there are many opportunities and a big stage in troubled times, bad guys can easily make bad, and heroes can also let go of their hands and feet.
The young Liu Xiu is a typical hero of troubled times.
Right now, Liu Xiu thought to himself, after all, no matter how incompetent the officials and soldiers are, there are so many people there, even so many corpses are piled up in a mountain, and it takes a little effort to climb over
Angry, if you really meet, you have to take it seriously.
Therefore, he selected more than 1,000 people as the vanguard, personally commanded it, and set up a battle position four or five miles away from the official army.
This may be what a great man said, to despise the enemy strategically and value the enemy tactically.
However, due to the lack of war horses, some of these buddies can only go on foot.
Seeing this, Wang Yi and Wang Xun sent thousands of people to meet the battle.
As soon as Liu Xiu saw the official army receiving the call, he immediately rushed forward with his horse, took the lead, and directly entered the enemy formation.
He rushed left and right, and quickly killed dozens of enemies (Guangwu Benzhi, beheaded dozens of levels), and actually scared the enemy back.
The morale of the coalition generals was greatly boosted, and they shouted to him happily:
"General Liu is usually scared when he sees a small group of enemies, but now he is very brave when he sees a strong enemy, it's really strange! General Liu, you are still a pioneer, everyone comes
Help General Liu fight! ”
(General Liu was cowardly when he saw a small enemy in his life, but now he is brave when he sees a big enemy, which is even strange!) And before you resettle, please help the general. )
Please note here that Liu Xiu has indeed performed well since he was appointed as a general of the First Dynasty for a few months, which has made the eyes of the coalition soldiers shine.
When the incident first started, in everyone's impression, Liu Xiu was a kind-hearted and diligent rural youth, a scholar who had seen the world in the capital, and was polite and polite
Gentle. When he was unlucky, he was a private school teacher and a bookkeeper, and when he developed a military secretary, he was a civil servant of the yamen, and he was fine. if
Going to the battlefield to slash, that's not his forte. Compared with his eldest brother Liu Xuan's arrogance and happiness, he is a completely different kind.
In the past few months, Liu Xiu has led everyone to attack the city and pull out the village, kill the bloody road from Wang Mang's 10,000 army array, and plan with everyone to break the enemy when moving the rescue troops.
Now that he is taking the lead in slashing dozens of enemies, this is not at all like a weak scholar or a rural educated youth, but it is completely a far-sighted and calm fruit
Dare, and very charismatic leader!
Of course, his physical fitness and kung fu are also very good.
Follow such a young and promising leader, there is a play!
Okay, everyone, look, over there, Liu Xiu led the crowd to cover up the past, and the officers and troops retreated again and again.
In this way, after a few rounds in half a day, Liu Xiu and others killed thousands of enemies, pushing the front forward step by step.
This is not enough, while Liu Xiu slashed the officials and soldiers, he also used a little trick to make Wang Yi and Wang Xun's brothers bigger.
