Chapter 1356: The Worries of the Roman Monarchs

Two days later, Yue Kefeng led 180,000 horses to retreat into Tancha Envoy Luo, plus the original 80,000 defenders of Tancha Envoy Luo, the total strength reached 260,000 people. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Immediately, Yue Kefeng ordered the 60,000 troops to immediately go to the western front.

In fact, this is one of the reasons why he suddenly led the army to abandon Mansella.

At the same time, the offensive and defensive war in the West was in full swing.

Although the fight was lively, it was not very intense, let alone tragic.

The main attacking army was the Western Kushan servant army, and these armies were clearly ineffective.

"General, these people are simply perfunctory!" Tai Shi Ci said angrily.

Sun Ce smiled coldly, "It seems that there is really something wrong with these people!" ”

It should be explained here that these Western Guishan servant troops that followed Sun Ce were not Li Jun's Xizhen Army, but an armed force established after the establishment of Western Guishan in order to maintain local order, which basically belonged to the local army, and these armies were complex and had low combat effectiveness. Li Jun's Xizhen Army currently has another mission, so it did not come.

"General, let our people go! Let these people fight, I'm afraid that we won't be able to beat us even if we die of old age! Tai Shi Ci said impatiently.

Sun Ce nodded and ordered the herald beside him, "Let them withdraw!" ”

"General, I'll lead people to attack!" Taishi Cixing rushed to the tunnel.

"Nope! Let's take care of the other things first! A hint of murderous intent flashed in Sun Ce's eyes.

"Something else?" Tai Shici had a puzzled look on his face.

Sun Ce asked rhetorically, "Forgot what I told you last night?" ”

Tai Shi Ci suddenly said, "It should have been like this a long time ago!" ”

Sun Ce said: "This kind of thing can't be rushed! If there is no valid excuse, I am afraid that it will backfire! They didn't attack well for days on end, which just gave us the best excuse! ”

Subsequently, the Wei army made a big tent.

More than a dozen generals of the Xiguishan servant army walked to the big tent in a whisper, and the leader made a silent gesture, and then more than a dozen people entered the big tent.

As soon as they entered the tent, they felt an atmosphere of surprise, and subconsciously had a bad feeling.

More than a dozen people saluted together, "General! ”

Sun Ce asked, "Are you guilty?" ”

More than a dozen people were stunned, and the general of the Xiguishan servant army who led the way asked with a blank face: "What does the general mean by this?" ”

Sun Ce snorted coldly, "According to the laws of the Empire, those who slack off and attack will be punished as collaborating with the enemy!" Come on, tie me up! ”

Dozens of pro-soldiers who had been waiting for a long time immediately rushed in and pinned more than a dozen Guishan servant generals to the ground.

"General, you are guilty of wanting to add to it!" The leader shouted loudly.

Sun Ce snorted coldly, "Whether it is a crime or not, you know better than me!" You can rest assured! You're going to get a fair trial! Hold on! ”

More than a dozen generals of the Kushan servant army were immediately tied up and taken down by Wuhuada.

Sun Ce immediately ordered the Western Guishan servant army to be completely dispersed, and assigned to the expeditionary force and the Flying Tiger army.

At the same time, the titular emperor of Xiguishan, Yue Kan, was plotting a mutiny, and he was not willing to mutiny at this time, but Yue Duo's threat left him with no choice.

At present, there is only one army in the entire Xiguishan territory, the Xizhen Army, and if Yue Kan convinces the Li Army, then this is the best time to mutiny.

Yue Kan's henchman Kan Leer hurriedly entered the palace hall, and at this time Yue Kan was pacing back and forth in the main hall.

"How?" Yue Kan asked urgently.

Kan Leer's eyebrows fluttered and said, "General Xizhen is willing to help His Majesty rebuild the real Kushan Empire!" ”

Yue Kan's eyes lit up, "Really?!" ”

Kanrell nodded. Excitedly said: "Your Majesty, we can act!" ”

Yuekan hesitated.

Seeing this, Kan Leer couldn't help but say urgently: "Your Majesty, now is not the time to hesitate!" If the Wei people are allowed to destroy Yueduo, we will never have a day to turn over! As long as we raise troops, we will be able to flank Sun Ce with Yueduo, and half of Sun Ce's army is actually loyal to us! Therefore, we will definitely be able to eliminate Sun Ce! As long as Sun Ce is eliminated, we will be able to merge with Yue Duo to fight against the main force of the Wei army in the north, and it is very likely that we will defeat the Wei people! ”

Yue Kan hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Okay! Do as you wish! ”

Kan Leer was overjoyed, "Then I'll go and inform General Xizhen immediately!" Chao Yuekan saluted and hurried away.

Yue Kan let out a long sigh, a blank look on his face.

Kan Leer found Li Jun and conveyed Yue Kan's order.

Li Jun agreed without hesitation.

That night, it seemed much quieter than ever, unsettlingly quiet.

Yue Kan stood in front of the palace hall and looked at the moonlight on the Tianshan Mountain, with a faint trace of melancholy in his eyes.

Kanrell stood aside.

"Kanreel, are the others ready?" Yuekan asked.

Kan Leer nodded, and said excitedly: "The merchants are raising grain and grass for us!" The nobles are preparing their ordnance and assembling their private armies! I'm sure it'll be ready tomorrow morning! ”

Suddenly there was the sound of hurried footsteps under the silent night sky, and tens of thousands of troops divided into several groups to surround several places.

Boom! The door to the main hall was suddenly slammed open, and a Praetorian Guard officer stumbled in. Yuekan and Kan Leer, who were talking, had their hearts pounding.

"What's going on?" Yue Kan asked unhappily.

"Your Majesty, it's not good! West Town Army, West Town Army! "The officer was somewhat incoherent.

At this moment, there was a noise outside the hall. Yue Kan and a few others hurriedly ran out, and saw thousands of troops holding torches gathered in the square in front of them, they were Li Jun's Xizhen Army.

"Why are you here?" Yue Kan asked.

No one answered, they all looked at him, and the firelight reflected on the cold faces.

Kan Leer whispered: "Your Majesty, it seems that something is wrong! ”

As soon as the words fell, a general in heavy armor came out in line, it was Li Jun, the general of the Xizhen Army.

"General, what's going on?"

Yue Kan pointed to the army in front of him and asked, "Do you want to rebel?" ”

Li Jun smiled indifferently, there seemed to be a hint of shame in his eyes, "Your Majesty, I am a Han Chinese, I have never forgotten this, how can I talk about rebellion?" ”

"But you are the general of my Guishan, and it was I who cultivated you! You ungrateful! Yue Kan roared angrily, looking a little hysterical.

Li Jun nodded, "Yes, I haven't forgotten this either!" So, I beg Your Majesty not to force us to do it! ”

Then he instructed a general beside him: "Please return to the palace!" ”

"Yes!" The officer answered the promise and led more than a dozen soldiers to surround him, and Yuekan and Kan Leer could only give in when they saw this scene.

At the same time, the other armies arrested all the merchants and nobles who had secret dealings with Yuekan and sealed their assets.

At this point, the rebel forces of the entire Western Kushan were basically uprooted.

The next morning, when the people went out of their homes, they found that many merchants' shops and nobles' houses had been sealed. People were panicked, and they didn't know what was going on.

Subsequently, Li Jun issued an announcement saying that a group of nobles and merchants had conspired with Yue Duo to rebel and were therefore raided, and Li Jun did not mention Yue Kan, the titular Emperor of Guishan, in the announcement.

Let's turn our gaze back to the northern part of Kushan.

After occupying Mansera, the main force of the Wei army continued southward, and after a few hours, it reached the mountain outside the fortress of Tancha and Luo, and set up camp. The terrain in front of you is very complicated, with steep mountains and strange rocks, and catapults cannot enter this mountainous area to fight, and the Tancha Envoy Luo Fortress is located in this mountainous area.

Cao Cao pointed to the sand table in front of him and said, "This is a sand table made based on the latest information from the scouts!" It can be seen that the terrain of Tancha Zhiluo is extremely complex and treacherous, not to mention catapults, even heavier siege equipment cannot be used, but this is the only way to go south! Do you have any suggestions? ”

A group of generals gathered around the sand table, and Dian Wei Er's general stood beside Cao Cao with his sword, and everyone had a thoughtful look on their faces.

"Your Majesty, can you find a path around it?" A general suggested.

Cao Cao shook his head, "There are already few residents around here, and now they are all gone!" Even if we find the local residents, with their hatred for us, we are afraid that we will be led into a trap! ”

Everyone couldn't help but nod.

"Since you can't take advantage of it, you can simply attack it! Why bother here! Cao Hong said impatiently.

Cao Cao smiled bitterly: "It's not a good thing to storm such a fortress!" ”

"Is there any news from Bo Fu?" Cao Cao asked.

The herald hurriedly took out a letter and presented it to Cao Cao, "This is the flying pigeon letter I just received, and I am about to present it to Your Majesty!" ”

Cao Cao took the book and read it, and said with a smile: "The rebel forces of Xiguishan have been uprooted!" Hmph, now Bo Fu can go east with peace of mind! ”

Cao Cao glanced at the sand table in front of him, "This fortress is really troublesome!" The order went down, and the armies took turns to carry out the vigilance, and the other armies had a good rest! ”

The generals were stunned, and the most belligerent Cao Hong asked urgently: "Your Majesty, don't attack?" ”

Cao Cao frowned and said, "It's really a stupid act to storm such a fortress!" Let's contain the main force of the enemy army here, and let Sun Ce break through to the hinterland of Guishan! ”

"Herald Bofu, be sure to break through the defense line of the Kushan Army as soon as possible!"

"No!" The herald answered and ran down.

Cao Cao saw that the generals were a little depressed, and he still didn't understand the thoughts of these fierce generals, and said with a smile: "Don't worry! Some battles are fought! Now let's go back and get some rest! ”

"Yes!" The generals agreed in unison, and Yuguan withdrew from the big tent.

Roman Palace.

Caracalla looked at the information in his hand, frowned, and glanced at Executive Thomas, "Administrator, how long do you think Guishan can resist?" ”

Thomas frowned and shook his head, "I don't know! I had predicted that they should be able to hold out for at least three months, but as things stand, it's a question of whether they can hold on for a month! (To be continued.) )
