Chapter Ninety-Five: The Three-Way Encirclement

Ah Yang.

After taking Zu Li, Li Zheng led the army to gallop hundreds of miles and attacked Ayang at night. Li Zheng personally put on the battle, thinking that he would go first, boost morale, and take advantage of the unpreparedness of people to break through the city gate in just two moments!

The morale of the army was like a rainbow, and then it entered the city, and the defenders could not resist it at all. Even the guards were killed by Xun Ying!

Xun Ying killed the defenders, although it was when the army gained the upper hand and the enemy generals were terrified, Li Zheng was still amazed.

How can you not praise your own woman?

Watching Xun Ying instigate the Qingjia war horse, rushing left and right in the chaos of the army, a spear in his hand is like a starry star, the coquettish shout, the heroic spirit, it is simply dizzying.

A female general on the battlefield is rare to see in a hundred years, let alone her own housewife?

Therefore, all the soldiers under his command fought bravely to kill the enemy, and their morale was simply bursting.

In less than two hours, Ah Yang arrived.

Li Zheng acted with few omissions. After the war, he immediately arranged a defense to avoid accidents, and in the morning, he returned to Ayang County.

After removing the armor, washing up, and getting rid of the smell of blood, after breakfast, Li Zheng was a little more relaxed.

From setting off on the night of the first day of the new year to breaking through Ayang in the early morning of the third day of the new year, Li Zheng has not had much rest for two days. Although he was outrageously strong, he was still mentally exhausted.

However, although it is a little easier, there are still a lot of things that need to be handled personally.

The intelligence of the soldiers and horses in the east and west needs to be carefully analyzed and exchanged with Jia Xu and Xun You. So after the meal, I closed my eyes slightly, passed through my heart, and read the military reports from the other two armies.

Xun Ying changed into her regular clothes, knelt quietly behind Li Zheng, and gently massaged Li Zheng's head with a pair of white jade-like hands.

After a long time, Li Zheng opened his eyes with a smile on his face.

Sensing Li Zheng's smile, Xun Ying rested her chin on Li Zheng's shoulder, murmured like a kitten, and said, "Is there good news from the east and west?" ”

Li Zheng nodded and said with a smile: "The Eastern Route Army has taken all the counties in the southeast of Anding, although there are still two or three counties in the southeast of Beidi County that still have enemy troops, but there is no need to worry, I think it can be solved after three or two days." Then, the white wolf and Gongda will lead their troops south and attack Hanyang! ”

"Then won't the enemy troops on the front line of Longguan take advantage of this time to send troops from behind and threaten the East Road?" Xun Ying asked softly.

Bukchi-gun, Anding-gun, and Hanyang-gun, from north to south. The East Road took the entire Anding, and tore the line of defense line arranged by Han Sui at the junction of Liangzhou and Sanfu into two sections. To the north, there are still a few counties in Beidi County, and to the south, the center of this defense line - Longguan.

According to common sense, Longguan will definitely send troops to threaten the Eastern Route Army from behind, echoing Beidi County. But this is not the case!

"They don't dare, Han Sui doesn't have the guts!" Li Zheng said with a smile: "On the night of the first night of the first lunar month, Zhangshan on the West Road broke Zhangye, defeated Han Sui's 50,000 defenders, and then entered Jincheng County in the east, broke the Lingju and Yunwu, and the morale was like a rainbow, directly threatening the western part of Hanyang. And along the way, we also laid down Ayang, and Jicheng is not far away. In the face of threats from the west and the north, do you think Han Sui is willing to give up Hanyang, or would he rather give up the northern and stable counties and transfer troops back to defense? ”

When Xun Ying heard this, he thought about it for a while, and couldn't help but say: "Hanyang is now Han Sui's lair, while the counties in the north and southeast of Anding are like an enclave, they are chicken ribs, and it doesn't hurt to give up." ”

"Clever!" Li Zheng laughed, picked up Xun Ying with his backhand, and put him in his arms, which made Xun Ying feel coquettish.

"But" Li Zheng hugged Xun Ying, frowning slightly: "In Jincheng County, there is some trouble. ”

"Oh?" Xun Ying rolled his eyes and said, "I guess Lang Jun must be worried about the people in Huangzhong, right?" ”

Li Zheng bowed his head and said: "Yes, all the Hus in Huangzhong, among them, the Qiang people are the most powerful, and the Qiang people are the most powerful, and the Qiang people have always been friends with Han Sui. Along the Huangshui River in Jincheng, there is also a Lu Shuihu"

The Qiang people such as Burndang, Baima, and Sanwolf are the largest tribes in the entire Qiang people. You can easily pull up an army of thirty or fifty thousand.

And Lu Shuihu in Huangzhong, on a certain stage, has a grudge against Li Zheng! The fate of Lu Shuihu and Songlu Shuihu in Hexi made them full of vigilance and hatred for Li Zheng.

Because of Li Zheng's ethnic policy, there is no possibility of alleviating this hatred. So even if Jia Xuzhi, the Western Route Military Division, is as deep as the sea, there is no way.

The only solution is to temporarily station some troops in Yu Yunwu, try their best to defend, and when Han Sui is solved, turn back with his free hands, and then settle accounts with these Hu people.

However, in this way, the number of troops that the Western Route Army can use has been greatly reduced. To defend Jincheng Zhuhu according to the city, according to Jia Xu's inference, at least five thousand elite soldiers are needed!

"This battle must be fast, it can't be delayed," Li Zheng thought, and couldn't help but sigh slightly. If the war drags on, it will be difficult to deal with it when Han Sui recovers and unites with the surrounding Qiang.

Although Li Zheng has already eaten a large area, this battle is pouring out, and Li Zheng's plan is to destroy Han Sui and annex the entire Liangzhou!

"In this case, Lang Jun, why don't you mobilize some soldiers and horses from Baishuichuan?" Xun Ying thought for a while and said, "The terrain of Baishuichuan is favorable, the defense facilities are complete, and the water cannot be splashed. Moreover, there was chaos within the Huns, and presumably in a short period of time, they would not think about Baishuichuan. ”

Li Zheng is considering this.

The soldiers and horses under Li Zheng's command, plus a cadre of slaves, have exceeded 60,000 people. In this battle, more than 40,000 troops were mobilized to go to the battle, and in addition to some important cities where it was necessary to leave soldiers and horses behind, there were only more than 10,000 people on the Baishui River.

Bowing slightly, Li Zheng nodded and said, "Wenhe and Gongda are also the same, I thought about it just now, the defense of Baishuichuan, about four thousand people is enough, and eight thousand soldiers and horses can be drawn." ”

Now that the decision has been made, Li Zheng will not delay any longer.

The sooner the better.

So he passed through Guò Blue Xiangniao and began to contact Bai Shuichuan Zhou Fei and Wang Laohu.

The larger the base of any group, the faster the scale will expand, and the same is true for the blue birds. In addition to the 300 soldiers and horses taken away by the three routes in this battle, in the territory under Li Zheng's rule, a contact point was arranged for every hundred miles from east to west, north and south.

In a short time, Li Zheng passed the order, through guò one by one, to the Baishui River.

Then, Li Zheng passed this decision to the commanders of the eastern and western routes

As Li Zheng, Xun You and Jia Xu expected, after Han Sui learned of the unfavorable situation of Lian Zhan, he immediately decided to gather his troops and horses!

In Han Sui's view, his biggest advantage over Li Zheng is the number of soldiers and horses in his hands. In addition, in any aspect, he is not as good as Li Zheng.

Especially in small-scale battles, Han Sui can be regarded as having learned the combat power of Li Zheng's peculiar troops.

Therefore, Han Sui felt that he should use his own advantages to Li Zheng's disadvantages, so that he could have a chance of winning. Otherwise, the army is scattered all over the place, and it will be easy to be broken by Li Zheng one by one, and then it will be powerless to return to the sky.

To defeat Li Zheng, the only way to defeat Li Zheng is to gather superior forces and force him to fight head-on!

After making up his mind, Han Sui immediately ordered to gather all the soldiers and horses of Liangxing in Longguan of Hanyang and the soldiers and horses of Longxi Didao to Jicheng, ready to fight Li Zheng here!

Han Sui's actions are all in Li Zheng's eyes. The Lan Xiang Bird that was scattered out completely transmitted Han Sui's troop mobilization back, so that Li Zheng could see it clearly.

As for Han Sui's thoughts, Jia Xu and Xun You can guess it. But Li Zheng didn't care, but was happy. Han Sui was afraid of dividing his troops, and Li Zheng was also afraid of dividing his troops.

Because Li Zheng has fewer soldiers and horses in his hands, after being thin, it seems that his strength is insufficient.

Moreover, Li Zheng's goal is to swallow the entire Liangzhou, and it would be great to be able to fight it in one battle.

Now the battle situation is already very clear, and when the soldiers and horses from the east and west gather, they will inevitably have a big battle with Han Sui under Jicheng.

Therefore, Li Zheng decided to transfer the least number of thirty Golden Winged Tiger Riders!

Of course, Li Zheng also has to be on guard.

Now, the closest to Jicheng is Li Zheng's people. If when Han Sui fully gathered his troops, the soldiers and horses of the east and west roads had not yet gathered, then it was possible that Han Sui would take the initiative to attack and target Li Zheng's troops and horses!

Therefore, between the two sides, there is still a time difference!

Whoever assembles first will take the lead!

The situation in Liangzhou is changing, but in a short period of time, it has not been noticed. On the one hand, the imperial court is in the midst of the alternation of the old and the new, and the forces of all parties are dividing the pie, so they have no time to pay attention to it. The two Liangzhou are far away from the border, and they can't be spread out in less than a month.

But even so, Li Zheng's name still faintly began to circulate among some people in the Central Plains.

Luoyang, flat optimistic.

Ping Optimistic was built in the Gaozu period, originally in Chang'an. After the war, Chang'an was almost destroyed, and the Eastern Han Dynasty moved its capital to Luoyang, so all the characteristic buildings of Chang'an were copied to Luoyang. For example, Shanglin Yuan is the same.

Ping is optimistic and makes a flat music hall, and the big music is also!

This is often the place where scribes and high-rollers hang out. Among them, there are many wine shops and brothels.

In the Ping Le Pavilion, in a wine shop, there are four scribes sitting around the desk, drinking and chatting.

Directly north sat a handsome young man with a face like a jade crown. This person is smiling, and his temperament is as warm as jade, and anyone who sees it will have a good impression.

On the left is a young man dressed simply, who seems to have no characteristics on his body, and has a somewhat decadent temperament.

The person on the right was a little older than the previous two, about thirty years old. His face is resolute, his eyes are sharp, he is well-dressed, he sits upright, and he is meticulous when drinking.

As for Zhengnan, he is a weak-crowned teenager who looks less than twenty. The young man's eyes were misty, his clothes were open, and he was half-lying, holding the wine lord with one hand and supporting the ground with the other, with a smile on his face.

"Ah, Brother Wen Ruo," the weak-crowned young man took a sip of wine, squinted slightly, looked at the Fengshen young man opposite with a smile, and said, "I heard that Xiaoyingzi is married?" Who is so blessed to be favored by Xiaoyingzi? Well, it must be fun to think about! ”

The handsome young man of Fengshen didn't think he was angry, smiled like water, and said: "Xiaoying's wedding on the first day of the seventh month, but unfortunately my husband's family is far away in Liangzhou, and I can't get away from it, so I can't participate." Otherwise, Brother Guo will have another drink, haha"
