Chapter 263: The Siege
Liu Xiezheng was thinking secretly, and the accompanying Lang official came to report, saying that Situ and Shangshu ordered Wang Yun to bring Sikong Chun Yujia, Taiwei Ma Riyan, Shangshu servant and shooter Sun Rui and other ministers to ask for a meeting.
When Liu Xie heard this situation, he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly asked Lang Guan to invite Wang Yun's ministers in, but when he saw that all the ministers came in, their faces were solemn, and Liu Xie's heart couldn't help but suddenly.
Could it be that what happened again?
Sure enough, Wang Yun's words made Liu Xie's little face pale and weak.
Dong Zhuo's old troops made a rebellion, gathered 100,000 troops, and came to attack Chang'an City.
Liu Xie was stunned for a while, then remembered something, and hurriedly said, "Where is General Lu?" ”
Wang Yun said: "Marquis Wen has led the guards to arrange defenses all over Chang'an, and sent Yang Ding to Wuguan to persuade him to surrender, and Xu Rong led his troops to Jingzhao to retreat the thieves. ”
Liu Xie breathed a sigh of relief slightly: "Have you ever issued an edict to pardon?" ”
Wang Yun said in a deep voice: "Now that the rebels are in rebellion, if they are not defeated, how can they issue an edict of pardon and ignore the prestige of the imperial court?" ”
Liu Xie was stunned, and immediately retorted: "How can 100,000 Liangzhou people be rebels, just bewitched by the wicked, and now that the imperial court has issued an edict to pardon, don't the people of Liangzhou have no reason to attack Chang'an?" ”
Wang Yun said in a deep voice: "Where is the prestige of the imperial court like this? ”
Liu Xiedao: "If Chang'an falls and the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs falls into the hands of thieves, will he still have prestige?" ”
"This ......" Wang Yun looked at the twelve-year-old Liu Xie, difficult to refute.
The ministers hurriedly responded, and even if Shang Shutai drafted the edict of pardon.
……
Even if Wang Yun and other ministers wanted to conceal the news that 100,000 Liangzhou soldiers had invaded Jingzhaoyin, the news still spread quickly in Chang'an City, especially in Baling, Wulingyuan and other places outside Chang'an City, and it was spread one after another, and countless people poured into Chang'an City, but more people fled towards Feng Yi on the left and Fufeng on the right.
Ji Ping was in a large mansion in Chang'an City at this time. This courtyard was also bought by Zhu Ao, including the three surrounding courtyards, which were bought, and the inside was opened, and the Ghost Shadow Guard, the Tiger Guard, the Women's Guard, and the Shadow Division were all among them, and now the situation is chaotic, in this gap. Even if he made a lot of formation in Chang'an City, presumably Wang Yun would not have time to take care of it.
As for the news of the 100,000 Liangzhou soldiers attacking Chang'an, he ordered people to spread it, because the 100,000 Liangzhou soldiers traveled a long distance, and the grain and grass would inevitably be difficult to continue. Cannibalism is also common in situations of hunger.
Ji Ping sent out the news, that is, let these people take the opportunity to flee to Zuo Feng Yi and Right Fufeng, Liangzhou soldiers except for Li Dao Guo Yan's cavalry from the south Wuguan, most of the rest came from the east Jing Zhaoyin, the north Zuo Feng Yi and the west of the right Fufeng are relatively safe. Zuo Feng Yi also has Zhang Ji's soldiers and horses, while the right Fufeng is mainly Ji Ping and Wang Hong's soldiers and horses, Ji Ping does not say, Wang Hong's soldiers and horses will not risk a big disapproval to slaughter the people.
In fact, this news Ji Ping hinted at Lu Bu early. It should be passed out by the court represented by Wang Yun, and the people should be quickly sent to flee. However, after Lu Bu proposed, he was refuted by Wang Yun, on the grounds that it would disturb people's hearts and affect the morale of the guards in Chang'an.
Therefore, Ji Ping arranged for someone to spread the news by himself. This kind of news often spreads the fastest, but in one day, all the places around Chang'an know about it.
While arranging for Dian Wei to sneak into Chang'an City, Ji Ping also quickly sent a message to all parties to deal with this sudden change.
Hongnong side. He has learned the news of Jia Xu's construction of the pass, and he is both admired and angry, after Hu Zhen led his troops to break the Song Wing and march westward, Jia Xu still stayed in Huayin, on the one hand, he continued to meet the Qianghu soldiers who poured out from the Qinling Mountains, and on the other hand, he also defended Hedong.
At Tian Feng's suggestion, Ji Ping made several strategies, one was to order the Fengling Crossing Duan Jin to secretly cross the river with 500 elite guards under the command of Qianniu, enter the Kunshan Mountain on the south bank of the Yellow River along the trail, cross the mountain, and attack the pass built by Jia Xu.
The second is to order Xu Huang of Shaanxi County to send 1,000 soldiers and horses to continue to attack the pass, and join forces with the 500,000 cattle that have climbed the mountain to break the pass. The rest of the soldiers and horses quickly sailed up the Yellow River and joined forces with 2,500 oxen under Duan Jin's command to attack Huayin.
The third is that the more easterly Mianchi Gaolan is directly from the land road to the west, and Xu Huang's 1,000 soldiers and horses converge, after breaking the pass, enter Huayin, all the way to the west.
Fourth, the Hedong side continued to increase troops from Puban into Linjin, and the soldiers and horses that originally attacked Linjin went south to attack Huayin with Duan Jin and Xu Huang, and after breaking Huayin, they went all the way to the west to pursue and kill the Qianghu soldiers.
Fifth, after defeating the follow-up Qianghu soldiers in the pass, Duan Jin immediately used the fame of the late Taiwei Duan Cheng to collect the Qianghu rout and encroach on the power of Hu's soldiers and horses.
Sixth, Pan Feng, who was fighting in Zuo Fengyi's guerrillas, led 400 tiger guards to Chang'an, and was ready to meet Ji Ping in the city near Chang'an.
And on the right side of Fufeng, Ji Ping ordered Wu Kuang to take Dong Min to quickly go east, and persuade him to surrender and recruit Liangzhou people in the name of Dong Min. The Dong family, including Dong Min's family and mother, were all detained in Yiwu, and Dong Min's personality was far inferior to Dong Zhuo, and he didn't dare to have two hearts.
Whether it is Hu Zhen, Jia Xu or Li Dao Guo Yan, the army is coming, all in the name of revenge for Dong Zhuo and asking for forgiveness, and now Dong Min is out of the horse, it is a golden signboard, when it can attract many Liangzhou people, and Hu Zhen, Li Dao, Guo Yan and other generals do not dare to touch Dong Min lightly in this situation.
When Ji Ping tried his best to deal with the sudden change, he couldn't help but be glad that he didn't kill Dong Min with one knife at the beginning, but now he has one more card.
On May 29 of the third year of Chuping, Yang Ding went to persuade Li Dao Guo Yan to surrender, but he led 10,000 soldiers and horses originally stationed in Wuguan, and ran to Chang'an with Li Dao Guo Bi's 20,000 cavalry, and quickly besieged Chang'an City.
All of a sudden, the war horses outside Chang'an City neighed, and the 30,000 horses just besieged but did not attack.
The guards in Chang'an City plus the 5,000 soldiers of Si Li and Lu Bu are only 10,000, and their combat effectiveness is quite mixed.
Many of the Praetorian Guards also had to defend the palace inside Chang'an City, and nearly half of the 5,000 soldiers under Lu Bu were also newly expanded after Dong Zhuo's death, and they did not form effective combat effectiveness.
In Chang'an City, after the court sent an envoy to show the edict of pardon, Li Dao and Guo Yan did not reply to the letter.
In fact, Liu Xie's idea is very reasonable, but it is much later, if the edict was issued before the Liangzhou soldiers gathered, then it would not be so easy for Hu Zhen, Jia Xu, Li Dao Guo Yan and others to gather 100,000 people, and Jia Xu may not have so many plans, but now the general trend has gone, the siege of the Liangzhou people has been completed, with Dong Zhuo as an example, now whether it is Hu Zhen or Li Dao Guo Yan, will not give up the opportunity to control the imperial court.
At this time, at that time, the effect of the edict of pardon was minimal. (To be continued.) )
PS: In the past two days, I have given some materials to the new leader, because it is in the run-in period, which is more critical, so the update has been delayed.
