Chapter 867: Surprise Attack on Chang'an

To the north of Weishui, the main forces of the Xia army and the Qin army met, and the third and last engagement broke out after the Battle of Bishan and the Battle of Hedong.

The wind was strong, the reeds were lodging, Lu Bu was holding Fang Tian's halberd, and his face was pale.

The Xia army camped on the opposite side, and there was no battle for three consecutive days, and the two armies faced each other, as long as Chutian did not attack, Lu Bu's ambush army had no effect.

Li Yuanhao was not in a hurry: "The Xia army is coming from afar, and the grain and grass should be running out, and they will soon be forced to attack." ”

Chang'an City, under the majestic and vicissitudes of the ancient city wall, a hussar galloped over, and the sand and dust rolled, covering the sky!

"What's that? Dust? ”

"Cavalry, that's cavalry!"

"King Qin's cavalry?"

The defenders of Chang'an City discovered this cavalry and immediately put it on alert, and thousands of defenders came to the city to look.

When the cavalry outside the city approached, the defenders of Chang'an City quickly realized that this was not Lu Bu's cavalry, but the cavalry of the Xia army, because the battle flag of the Xia army was hunting!

The sand and dust were churning, and the defenders of Chang'an City were completely unable to tell how many enemies there were.

Tai Shici held the longbow and led the cowardly Xue army to stop one after another, and in the rear, there was a steady stream of low-level cavalry.

According to the opinions of various military divisions, Tai Shici divided the three thousand low-level cavalry into three groups, tied branches on the tail of the horse, and arrived in batches, pretending that there were many soldiers and horses.

The defenders of Chang'an City really hit the plan, and they were terrified.

Tai Shici's cavalry of less than 5,000 people just created the momentum of tens of thousands of cavalry.

Chang'an City defended 20,000 or 30,000 troops, but it was intimidated by Tai Shici's thousands of cavalry.

Tai Shi Ci held the bow, rode to the city, and bent the bow and arrows.

"What does he want to do?"

"Bed crossbow, bed crossbow ready!"

The defenders of Chang'an City panicked because Tai Shici was approaching the city gate alone.

The guard general Wei Xu stared at Tai Shici, wanting to know what this Xia army general wanted.

"Could it be that he wants to capture Chang'an by himself? It's too arrogant. ”

Wei Xu saw Tai Shi Ci bend his bow and arrow, aiming at himself.

Wei Xu suddenly had an uneasy sense of crisis.

The arrow was like a meteor, Wei Xu didn't have time to dodge, an arrow passed through the red tassel on Wei Xu's helmet and nailed to the wooden pillar of the city tower!

As long as Tai Shici is willing, then maybe this arrow will not hit Wei Xu's red tassel, but Wei Xu's façade.

Wei Xu was afraid for a while, and couldn't help sweating.

"I mention 50,000 cavalry to attack Chang'an, and there are still 500,000 troops in the rear! The Qin army has been broken, Lu Bu has been captured, and the king of Xia has won a big victory! If Chang'an City descends early, you can still live, and you are not to blame for the past. Otherwise, the day we break through the gates, all those who will not surrender will be punished! ”

Tai Shici's voice was loud, persuading the defenders to surrender.

When the defenders of Chang'an City heard that the Qin army in front of them had been defeated and the Xia army had won, they didn't know the truth and couldn't help but panic.

Almost all the defenders looked at each other, and then looked at Wei Xu, who was the general defending the city.

"This ......"

Wei Xu thought that Tai Shici's bow and arrow almost killed him, but this was the result of his subordinates' mercy, and he was at a loss.

Tai Shi Ci immediately ordered the preparation of siege equipment.

"Open the city gates, surrender, surrender the Xia army!"

Wei Xu saw that Tai Shici really wanted to attack the city, and there were cavalry in the rear coming in turn, thinking that at least 50,000 Xia troops had come to the outside of Chang'an City, otherwise how could they be confident in attacking the city? Moreover, with such a large number of Xia soldiers approaching the city, it is very likely that the main force of the Qin army on the front line has been defeated, so in a panic, he surrendered Tai Shici without resistance.

The gate of Chang'an City was wide open, and the cowardly Xue army seized the city gate and drove straight in!

Wei Xu took the initiative to come to see Tai Shici, and was even more frightened when he saw the cowardly Xue Jun who was brave and good at fighting.

He followed Lü Bu, and Lü Bu participated in the expedition to the Western Regions and other battles with Temujin under the command of the old Qin, so Wei Xu had seen the terrifying cowardly Xue army.

At the peak of Temujin's cowardly Xue army, there were 10,000 ninth-order cavalry, which was enough to break through many civilizations.

Wei Xu believed that even if he led an army of 50,000, he would be defeated by Tai Shici's less than 2,000 cowardly Xue army.

"The criminal minister Wei Xu has seen this general, and he doesn't know where King Xia is?"

Wei Xu looked at Tai Shici, who was nearly eight feet tall and good at shooting, and knew that this person was not the King of Xia, and the force of the King of Xia was not enough to snipe and kill the general who defended the city under the city.

Tai Shi Ci said coldly: "King Xia is still confronting Lu Bu north of Weishui. ”

"Oh, it turns out that King Xia is still north of Weishui...... What the?! ”

Wei Xu's pupils dilated suddenly.

He also thought that Tai Shici had hit Chang'an City because the main force of Lu Bu on the front line had been defeated, but he didn't expect that the Xia army had not fought with Lu Bu at all.

In other words, he was intimidated by Tai Shici's force and threats, and was deceived into opening the city gates!

"Now that Chang'an City has fallen into my hands, if Lu Bu knows, presumably you will be killed by Lu Bu, and the five horses will be divided, but do you know the consequences?"

Tai Shici was no longer worried that Wei Xu would rebel at this time.

According to the information provided by the player, Wei Xu, the general under Lu Bu's command, is not so loyal, and he is timid, plus he was deceived by the city, and Lu Bu will definitely kill him when he knows about it.

Wei Xu was sweating profusely, he knew that it was useless to blame himself, and he gave away Chang'an City with a population of one million for nothing, and he could only follow King Xia in the future.

So Wei Xu hurriedly said: "The last general dedicated the city, not because he was afraid of the strength of King Xia's troops, but because he had already abandoned the darkness and turned to the light. Now that the king of Xia has arrived, it is too late for the last general to eat pot pulp, how can it be repeated? ”

"That's good."

Tai Shi Ci took the cowardly Xue Jun and drove straight to the palace, and many ministers of the imperial court were all panicked and ran around.

"The Xia army invaded Chang'an City and approached the palace!"

"Will the Xia army slaughter the city?"

"I haven't heard of the Xia army having a history of slaughtering cities, even if they suppressed various tribes, the Xia army didn't slaughter cities."

"That's good, that's good."

These ministers include the old ministers left by Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, and there are also a group of ministers appointed by the old Qin.

Among all the ministers, only Xun Yu, who was actually in charge of the operation of the Han court, was very calm.

Xun Yu served in the Chutian forces, while Xun Yu maintained the weak Han court and assisted Li Si in managing the internal affairs of Guanzhong.

Li Si was in charge of Xianyang, while Xun Yu was in charge of Chang'an.

A group of gray-haired ministers found Xun Yu, and they all knew that Xun Yu was a strategist in the Xia army, and he was one of the main strategists, so they at least found Xun Yu and sought refuge.

"Don't worry, the situation can't be worse."

Xun Yu faced the noisy ministers, but what he said made the ministers confused.

One of the attendants said: "The Xia army is at odds with the imperial court, and now the Xia army cavalry has entered the city, and the situation is critical, how can you say so?" ”

Xun Yu shook his head: "The decree of the imperial court does not leave Chang'an City, even if it is Chang'an City, soldiers and horses, and public security are not under the jurisdiction of the imperial court." The imperial court has no power and no power, it is just a vassal of the princes, what is the difference between the Xia army occupying Chang'an and the Qin army occupying Chang'an? ”

After Xun Yu's words were finished, a group of court ministers were silent, the court was indeed just a dispensable ornament, and the reason why Lao Qin kept the Han court was to deal with the surrounding civilization, and there was a name that could order the princes to stop fighting and unite with the outside world.

The princes within the Han Empire fought fiercely, but when the Han Empire faced a threat, the imperial court could intervene.

Except for foreign wars and feudal officials, the imperial court really has no sense of existence.

Tai Shi Ci fought the sword, commanded a team of cavalry to walk up the stone steps of the Chang'an Palace, and the cowardly Xue army, who had experienced a hundred battles, was murderous, and most of the ministers trembled.

"The Chang'an Palace Janissary has been replaced, and it is under the jurisdiction of the Cowardly Xue Army, and all those who make trouble will be killed!"

Taishi Ciyi is righteous, even if some ministers have opinions, but the cowardly Xue Jun convinces people with virtue, and they dare not speak out.

There is nothing to say with these ministers, except for some ministers who are valuable, the other teams basically have to be replaced by people from the Chutian forces.

After all, most of the ministers left behind in the era of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty have reached the age of returning to their hometowns.

Chang'an City was solemn, and Wei Xu found that Tai Shici's soldiers and horses were less than 5,000 horses after Tai Shi Ci entered the city, and he regretted it even more.

However, there was no regret medicine, and Wei Xu could only follow Tai Shi Ci.

Since he chose to surrender, Wei Xu tried to curry favor with Tai Shici and wanted to become Tai Shici's lieutenant.

As one of King Xia's guards, the Cowardly Xue Army can become the deputy general of the Cowardly Xue Army, and such an opportunity is not common.

Tai Shi Ci has not recruited any decent deputy generals, and Tai Shi Ci did not refuse Wei Xu's initiative to show goodwill.

Maybe Wei Xu doesn't know that the strength of a thousand households of the cowardly Xue army is at least above 80, and the commander value is not low, and Wei Xu's attributes may not be as good as a thousand households of the cowardly Xue army.

Players in Chang'an City were alarmed.

Chang'an City, the capital of the Han Empire, Xianyang City, the new city built by Lao Qin, the two most important cities, were occupied by the Xia army, so it was only a matter of time before the Xia army swept away the entire Guanzhong.

For a time, the world was shaken!

The most shocked was the Qin army commanded by Lü Bu, who was arrayed north of Weishui.

Lu Bu couldn't wait to fight a decisive battle with Chu Tian and decide the world in one battle.

But before the Xia army could attack, the news of the loss of Chang'an City came, and Hou Cheng, the defender of Xianyang City, saw that the situation was not good, and then surrendered to the Xia army.

With less than 5,000 cavalry, Tai Shici easily captured two giant cities, which is a miracle.

The rear was attacked by surprise, and the morale of the Qin army began to inevitably decline.

Rumble!

Lu Bu was furious, and the desk was hit by Fang Tian's painting halberd, and broken wood was splashed everywhere.

"If the Xia army doesn't attack again, we will take the initiative to attack! My Lu Fengxian's cavalry is unparalleled in the world, how can I be afraid of Chu Zimou! ”

Lu Bu was completely angered this time, and the blue tendons on his forehead burst out.

Lu Bu's subordinate Song Xian hurriedly entered the camp: "His Royal Highness the King of Qin, the Xia army is out of the camp and launches an attack!" ”

"Is Xia Jun finally willing to attack! Armies attack! ”

Lu Bu held Fang Tian's halberd and led the generals to fight against the water.

"Wait until Chang'an City and Xianyang City fall, and the enemy's morale drops, and then launch an attack to increase the victory rate, just like I imagined."

Jia Xu thought about the timing of the Xia army's attack, which was after the fall of Chang'an City and Xianyang City.

Left and right of the reeds, ambushed Li Dao, Guo Yan's two soldiers and horses, and Li Yuanhao's iron harrier.

According to the plan of the Qin army, Lu Bu and Wang Yun led the main force of the Qin army to fight a battle north of Weishui, attracting the Xia army to attack, and then Li Dao and Guo Yan led the ambush soldiers, flanking left and right, and Li Yuanhao led the iron harrier to attack the Xia army and cut off the Xia army.

Although the three Qin generals Wang Qian, Meng Tian, and Li Xin thought there was a problem, Lü Bu inherited the throne in the name of the righteous son of the king of Qin, and he forced the order, and Wang Qian, Meng Tian, and Li Xin had to reluctantly obey the arrangement.

On the periphery of the reeds, there was suddenly smoke billowing, and the fire spread to the depths of the reeds with the help of the northwest wind!

Before the decisive battle, the Xia army did everything to the end, leaving no way for the other party to live, and simply set fire to the entire reeds!

The fire borrowed the wind, the smoke filled the air, the reeds burned out, and the fire stained the Weishui red!
