Chapter 784: Hook Up
In the bloody storm of the entire Hancheng, the 300,000 pioneers led by Li Guang arrived in Pingcheng first.
Pingcheng is the last main road to Hancheng, as long as you step on Pingcheng, one hundred and sixty miles from Pingcheng to Hancheng are all fertile plains, and then there is no danger to defend, it can be said that Pingcheng bears the barrier role of Hancheng, as early as more than 100 years ago, Pingcheng is also one of the most important cities in South Korea, but with South Korea to take refuge in Jixia School Palace, South Korea's national strength is becoming stronger and stronger, looking at the world, almost no country can have the opportunity to drive the army to Pingcheng, Pingcheng defense is increasingly slack, and gradually become a logistics transit city between South Korea and Hancheng, as for Pingcheng, the barrier role is almost only in the document。
Pingcheng ordered Han Jian to flee directly as soon as the Qin army stepped out of Hangu Pass, and now Pingcheng is actually defenseless, Li Guang looked at the majestic city in front of him, shook his head and said: "This big city has also appeared many times in history, but it is a pity that it will end in the long river of history after today." ”
Huo Qubing said coldly: "As the so-called being prepared for danger in times of peace, this Korean peace has been too long, they have almost put all their energy on how to please the Jixia School Palace, and they have never thought about what they should do if the Jixia School Palace does not help them one day, they only want to enjoy peace forever, but they have never thought that this continent will be a big war after all, so they are in danger today, and they deserve it." ”
Li Guang didn't look down on South Korea until Huo Qubing, although he thought that South Korea also had some merits, but now was not the time to argue with Huo Qubing, so he said: "Pingcheng is in front of you, is General Huo personally leveling him, or will he let others go." ”
As soon as the words fell, a white flag was directly raised on the head of Pingcheng, and a Korean general walked out of the city with a group of soldiers trembling, and knelt down towards Li Guang and them from a distance.
"What's the situation?"
Li Guang and Huo Qubing glanced at each other, and both saw the surprise in each other's eyes, although all the way to fight, the major cities in South Korea along the line had almost no resistance, but Pingcheng was the barrier of Hancheng, Li Guang thought that there should be a big battle, but now that the people have not fought over, the other party has surrendered directly, what is the matter.
Called the surrendered Han general and asked, the two immediately knew what was going on, Li Guang didn't care, Huo Qubing jumped directly and said: "This white bullying is too much, according to His Majesty's will, the striker is the general, what does he mean by this, he actually took the first step to knock down Pingcheng, and then threw the mess to us, he himself continued to attack the city, is this looking down on us?"
"Be cautious!" Li Guang glared at Huo Qubing, although he was also very dissatisfied with Bai Qi's behavior, but Bai Qi and them were officials of the same dynasty after all, loyal to the same emperor, and some things really couldn't be said nonsense.
After the Pingcheng defender said, Li Guang and the two knew what Bai Qi had done, when they attacked all the way from Hangu Pass, Bai Qi led a large army to dozens of large and small cities near Hancheng to carry out a three-light sweep, almost all the cities within a radius of hundreds of miles near Hancheng were captured by Bai Qi, but Bai Qi did not have enough troops to garrison these cities, so he killed all the Korean soldiers in the city, and then rode away.
For example, Pingcheng, the barrier of the Korean city in front of him, was originally garrisoned by hundreds of thousands of new soldiers, but there were less than 10,000 people left who were directly killed by Bai Qi, it can be said that in the face of Li Guang and Huo Qubing, there is no longer the power to resist, and there is almost no way out except surrender, and Bai Qi's murderous nature also scared the Korean people stupidly, reflecting the Korean court's brutal and unkind propaganda of the Qin State, the Koreans almost felt that all the Qin people were cannibalistic, in the face of such a murderous Qin people, the Koreans had no power to resist, and now almost all the remaining living forces in the entire South Korea have been concentrated in Hancheng, and South Korea intends to confront the Qin army in Hancheng and fight a decisive battle。
"Now it seems that we have to go to Hancheng first. Huo Qubing glanced at Li Guangdao.
"I don't know the reality of Hancheng for the time being, we only have 300,000 people now, if South Korea lays a net in Hancheng, maybe the two of us can run away, but these soldiers around us can't run away, I think it's better to stay and wait for Your Majesty." Li Guangdao.
Huo Qubing said directly: "Wait for Your Majesty, of course I know that waiting for Your Majesty is the safest, but if we don't do anything, the Han people will let Bai Qi kill the embryo alone, and then all the credit will be his, and what else will happen to us." ”
"Then what do you want?" Li Guang said.
"Divide the troops. Huo Qubing said directly: "I took 100,000 people out to kill the Quartet, but I want to compare with Bai Qi to see who is the number one general in the world!"
Li Guang looked at Huo Qubing with a serious look, and suddenly felt helpless, there was no subordinate relationship between him and Huo Qubing, if Huo Qubing was bent on dividing troops to attack South Korea, he would not be able to stop it, but now that he is getting closer and closer to Hancheng, the danger is getting bigger and bigger, and it is really unwise to divide troops now.
Huo Qubing seemed to know what Li Guang was going to say, and said directly: "Don't stop me, I have made up my mind about this matter, I will immediately take 100,000 people to set off, as for what you do, it's your own business." ”
Speaking, regardless of whether Li Guang agrees or not, Huo Qubing directly called Meng Huo and asked Meng Huo to order 100,000 elite soldiers, of course Meng Huo knows what Huo Qubing wants to do, he likes to kill people on the battlefield the most, and he has almost no chance to perform all the way to here, and now Huo Qubing wants to take him alone, of course he is a hundred willing, and immediately ordered 100,000 people, and the 100,000 army shouted, and soon disappeared in Pingcheng under the leadership of Huo Quzhi.
Li Guang watched Huo Qu's illness and run away with people, smiled bitterly, shook his head, and sent a letter to Wang Mang to explain the matter.
Wang Mang is not far from Pingcheng, his marching speed is not fast, mainly to wait for domestic reinforcements, this attack on South Korea is extraordinary, it is to carry out a war to destroy the country, starting from Hangu Pass, Li Guang and Huo Qubing took 300,000 elite soldiers to set off first, Wang Jitang set off with 200,000 elite soldiers, Wang Mang and Wang Jian and others set off with 500,000 people at the end, and then Wang Yongji galloped all the way with 500,000 people, and also joined forces with Wang Mang at this moment, now Wang Mang's Chinese army has one million people, and the entire army of exterminating Korea is more than 1.5 million people。
"Your Majesty, in addition to the 500,000 ministers, the ministers also temporarily borrowed 200,000 troops from Cloud City, and the 200,000 elite soldiers set off from the straight road, and soon they will arrive at Hangu Pass, and then the imperial court's conscription and mobilization order has worked very well, according to preliminary estimates, more than one million young men have signed up, plus the city guards drawn from all over the country, within ten days, when a million troops arrive at Hangu Pass, set off from Hangu Pass to South Korea. Wang reported with auspiciousness.
After listening to Wang Yongji's report, Wang Mang said after a while: "What is the situation in various countries now?"
"Xiang Yan, the general of Chu State, killed the Emperor of Chu and planned to establish himself as the Emperor of Chu, but he didn't expect that the White Deer Academy finally supported his son Xiang Yu to become the Emperor of Chu. Wang Yongji said: "In addition, South Korea asked Wei for help, asking Wei to send troops to help South Korea, but Wei asked South Korea to cut a thousand miles of land before he was willing to come, the two sides are negotiating, and at the same time Wei gathered an army of two million under the pretext of helping South Korea, of which one million elite soldiers have been killed towards Zheng under the leadership of Wei Dan, the general of Wei, and there is another dispute between Qi and Lu, depending on the situation, the two sides are going to fight." ”
"Where is the Continental Alliance?" Wang Mang said with a raised brow.
"First of all, the grassland was surging, and the Continental Alliance sent people to Yan and Zhao to confront the grassland tribes, and at the same time, among the 100,000 in the south, it was suspected that the ancient ruins were opened, and many masters of the alliance went to the 100,000 mountains, and more than a dozen small countries such as Song, Qingguo, Cai, and Jiguo all went to the Zhou State where the Continental Alliance was located to plan to be emperor, and the Zhou State was now a mess. Wang Yongji shook his head and said: "Judging from the information gathered from various places, the mainland seems to be completely chaotic. ”
As the secretary of the military department of the Qin State, Wang Yongji got a lot of various news, but it was more than a month of hard work, Wang Yongji found that the whole world was completely different from the world he knew, almost everywhere in the world was full of beacon fire, wars everywhere, and chaos everywhere, such as Cai Guo and other small countries that called the kingdom a little unqualified, and now they ran to the Continental Alliance one by one to apply to become an empire, and their kings all wanted to be emperors, and now it was like a joke.
And Qin's attack on South Korea is also because South Korea has repeatedly invaded Qin and has the intention of destroying Qin, so Qin is like a legitimate defense to attack South Korea in turn, this is for a reason, it is in line with morality, but Chu ran to attack Wu, Wei ran to attack Zheng, Qi planned to attack Lu, and so on.
In short, in Wang Yongji's view, he can't understand the situation in the world at all.
Wang Mang knew that with the appearance of the word unity on the stone tablet of the Ghost Valley, the world would be in chaos, or the world would be in chaos, but the major holy gates had been stubbornly suppressed to prevent chaos, and now I don't know why, the major holy gates gave up this suppression, so the contradictions accumulated for hundreds or even thousands of years between the countries broke out.
As for the Song State, Cai State and other small countries now run to call the emperor in Wang Mang's opinion, it is also normal for these small countries to obviously know that the world is going to be in chaos, and their country may not be able to keep it, so they are going to be the emperor before the world is in chaos, gather the emperor's energy, and seek a glimmer of life, even if they can't ask for any life, they are addicted to being the emperor before they die, but they are just some fools.
Wang Mang didn't care about the things between these small countries, but after learning that the Chu State was going to destroy Wu and the Wei State was also going to destroy Zheng, Wang Mang's expression moved, but he said to Wang Yongji: "What do you think of it if I divide some people and horses to destroy Yiqu now?"
"Your Majesty is planning to meet with the soldiers of the Zhao State?" Wang Yongji frowned involuntarily, the Yiqu State is located in the middle of the Qin State and the Zhao State, and it is also a strategic buffer between the Qin State and the Zhao State, and it is also because of the existence of the Yiqu State, there is no major border dispute between the Qin State and the Zhao State, but if the Qin State destroys the Yiqu State, then the Qin State and the Zhao State will border, and the Zhao State will never allow this kind of thing to happen, and it will inevitably meet with the Qin State.
Listening to Wang Yongji's words, Wang Mang smiled and said, "Isn't it a war between my Qin State and Zhao State now?"
Thinking of the joint attack on Hangu Pass by the Han and Zhao coalition forces, Wang Yongji was stunned for a moment, only to find that Qin and Zhao had indeed met each other, or that more than 1.5 million people had died in the hands of Qin before and after Zhao State, this is a sea of blood feud, how can Zhao State be willing to give up with Qin State, and Zhao State is on the side of Qin State, and Qin State will not give up with Zhao State.
Wang Mang said coldly: "The countries now don't know why, unscrupulously expanding their sphere of influence to the Quartet, my Qin State and Zhao State are separated by Yiqu State, and we used to need Yiqu State to give us a buffer, and now my Qin State and Zhao State have a blood feud, and now our Qin State army has invaded South Korea, but Zhao State has not moved, the more they do not move, the more conspiracy they have." ”
After a pause, Wang Mang pointed to the map behind him and said: "Judging from the map, if the major powers make a move, it is impossible for Zhao State not to do it, if he does it, he will inevitably attack Yiqu State, and then Chen Chen Qin State borders, and even ask my Qin State to exchange the land of Korea with him, which I will never allow, rather than let Zhao State destroy Yiqu, it is better for my Qin State to destroy Yiqu by himself." ”
Wang Yongji looked at the map, his brows furrowed slightly, he felt that what Wang Mang said was true, but the alliance between Yiqu and Qin was also a good alliance for generations, and now he destroyed Yiqu like this, it was really a bit immoral, but he couldn't say this to Wang Mang, he just said: "I'm afraid that the troops are insufficient." ”
"So this battle of Hancheng must be resolved quickly. Wang Mang said: "At the same time, send a letter to Yiqu, tell them that Zhao has a plan against them, and Zhao intends to raise troops to attack them when my Qin State attacks Hancheng, this is a battle to destroy the country, let them not be lucky, tell them that as long as they can block the Zhao army for half a month, my army will definitely go to Yiqu to save them." ”
"This ......" Wang Yongji couldn't understand what Wang Mang was doing.
Wang Mang was not interested in explaining to Wang Yongji, he was not Wang Yongji's teacher, he was Wang Yongji's leader, and Wang Yongji only had to do what he ordered, and the rest depended on how much he could understand.
Wang Yongji pressed his doubts and left, as soon as the others left, Yin Lihua's laughter sounded in Wang Mang's ears, Wang Mang looked at the door, and Yin Lihua, who was full of enchantment, came to Wang Mang's side in a flash, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for many days, does Your Majesty miss the slave family?"
A refreshing fragrance came from Yin Lihua's body into Wang Mang's nose, Wang Mang couldn't help but show some intoxicated look on his face, looked at Yin Lihua and said, "You always seduce me like this, aren't you afraid of playing with fire and immolating yourself that day?"
"Don't be afraid. Yin Lihua smiled and said: "The slave family feels that His Majesty is destined to be a man of the slave family, if His Majesty wants the slave family, the slave family will be His Majesty's at any time." ”
"Really?" Wang Mang raised his eyebrows, not knowing what this goblin was going to do.
Yin Lihua shook her body and lay directly in Wang Mang's arms, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty still thinks it's fake?"
