Chapter 160: Luoyang Liu Xie
After Yu Wenyuan received the building boat, there was also a teenager who was released from custody, he was Jiangdong Sun Quan, according to his seniority, Yu Wenyuan was still Sun Quan's brother-in-law.
Yuwenyuan sent Sun Quan back to Sun's mansion, and now Jiangdong has been returned to Yuwen's family, and Zhou Yu, Lu Su, Zhou Tai and other generals are all attached to Yuwenyuan.
At this time.
A letter for help from Li Long has also arrived.
Liangzhou fell.
"Who should we send to defend against the enemy from the Western Regions?"
Yu Wenyuan was thinking about it.
Huang Zhong, Wei Yan, Zhou Yu, and Lu Su were all generals this time, and in the face of the unknown enemy in the Western Regions, Yu Wenyuan still chose Zhou Yu and Wei Yan, and Huang Zhong and Lu Su stayed in Jiangdong to fight against the Japanese invaders in the sea area.
Lu Su reminded at this time: "My lord, our current army is all new soldiers, do we need to mobilize the soldiers and horses stationed in Jiaozhou to defend against foreign enemies in the Western Regions?" In this way, our losses will inevitably be reduced a lot. ”
Yu Wenyuan nodded.
said: "Replace the garrison with new soldiers, and immediately gather 50,000 troops to support Chang'an!" ”
Wei Yan said: "My lord, is 50,000 a little less?" The situation of the enemy outside the Western Regions is unknown, if the other party is coming with a large army, we are afraid that we will fall into passivity!"
Yu Wenyuan thought for a while and wondered: "Big army? It's absolutely impossible! According to the Western Regions to our borders, it will take at least half a month to march, and their supplies can't be stretched so far! ”
You must know that the Western Regions to the Han are separated by the desert, and with the current situation, how can the food supply be transported to the rear of the army, which is why the Han Dynasty could not occupy the Xianbei Land before.
But.
Now, with the participation of players, major cities have been built one after another.
Expeditionary support is also gradually relaxed, the most important thing is that the Roman legions have occupied the territory of Liangzhou, and now they have plundered enough grain reserves.
Lu Su reminded: "My lord, Liangzhou is in their hands, if they arrange for a large army to come later, they will be possible!" Maybe that's their plan. ”
Yu Wenyuan was puzzled: "Why did they send a large army?" ”
Are they ready to conquer the entire territory of the Great Han? The Great Han is one of the four empires, and they are also one of the empires, how can they conquer the entire empire without pouring the whole country's troops.
If not.
Why did they send a large force?
This makes no sense at all.
Lu Su didn't speak, but he was faintly worried in his heart, he always felt that the other party must have a plan to occupy Liangzhou, if not, they would definitely evacuate after plundering the population and resources.
In Hangu Pass.
Ma Teng garrisoned the city with an army of 50,000.
At this time.
Li Long's follow-up soldiers and horses have not yet been successfully formed, and now they can only rely on them to garrison Hangu Pass, according to the spies who released them, all the knights of the Western Regions are stationed in Wuwei City, and they have a total of more than 30,000 soldiers and horses.
Ma Teng did not act rashly.
What is Han Sui's strength, he naturally knows that Han Sui died in Zhangye City, which already shows that the other party's strength is far superior to his Ma Teng, and now he just wants to hold Hangu Pass and wait for Li Long's follow-up army to come.
Below Pound said: "General, according to the description of the spies, the other party does not seem to be a spearman from the Western Regions, but more like the legendary iron knights from the far west, they are wearing armor all over, holding long swords, square shields, and a flame crest on the armor, which is an army we have never seen." ”
Ma Teng pondered for a moment.
He nodded.
He had already been in contact with the spearmen of the Western Regions.
According to the spies' report, he was sure that the enemy must not be a spearman from the Western Regions.
"Are they moving?"
Pang De replied: "No, now they are all in Wuwei City, and it seems that they are also waiting for backup, and the last general thinks that we can lead three thousand Xiliang Iron Cavalry to harass and test it, test its strength, and also make it easy to deal with each other." ”
"Are you sure?"
Pound said firmly: "We have not lost against the enemy. ”
Ma Teng hesitated for a moment.
He nodded.
The Xiliang Iron Cavalry is the most powerful heavy cavalry under its command, and the war horses are all used in the high-grade Wanma of Xiliang, which is not only tall and mighty, but also has strong endurance, and its armament Ma Kai and so on are all first-class goods.
It's completely comparable to the defense of the hoplites.
"If you find that the situation is not right, immediately withdraw to Hangu Pass!"
Ma Teng still reminded.
In Luoyang City, Li Long is abolishing all the palace maids, eunuchs, etc., and Liu Xie, the Emperor of Han Xian, is also directly arranged in the Bohai Palace, Luoyang, and now he is no longer the Son of Heaven, but the King of Bohai.
Meantime.
Liu Wei of Shengle Capital also lost his status as the Son of Heaven and became a prince in name only.
This is something that Yu Wenyuan and the three of them discussed at the same time.
It is to prevent the NPC forces from continuing to make trouble again in the name of the Son of Heaven.
Li Long and others did not claim the title of king and emperor.
They just regard themselves as princes, but they don't have the Son of Heaven, if they just decided today, there was a strange thing in Luoyang City, many people died for no reason, and several players were the same.
Li Long was investigating the cause of the incident.
Li Ru came.
"Lord, I already know the reason for the incident!"
"What's going on?"
Li Ru said: "I went to ask the King of Bohai about his speculation about this matter, and according to his description, some time ago, Zuo Ci Lao Dao told the King of Bohai that the fierce well town charm in Luoyang City was a little loose! And the location of the incident was near the murderous well, and the king of Bohai guessed that the fierce well must have broken free, and the only way to do this was to ask Zuo Ci Immortal to come to help. ”
Li Long said: "Hurry up, please!" ”
Li Ru said softly: "This! Zuo Ci asked the King of Bohai to come forward to invite him. ”
"What does he want?"
"Re-establish him as emperor!"
Li Long glanced at it and said, "I knew that this little bastard just wanted to be the emperor!" ”
"Lord, I think what he said is true, I'm afraid that this thing may really be the fierce well, when the last time Luoyang was attacked, someone had seen Su Xiaochen enter the fierce well, and a lot of strangers died in it, we all thought that Su Xiaochen sent troops to kill this matter, but now it seems that it is only because of the evil well."
Li Long took a deep breath.
"Tell Liu Xie that it is impossible to be the emperor, but if you invite Zuo Ci to come and solve the evil matter, it is not impossible to give him temporary freedom."
Li Long hurriedly persuaded: "My lord, don't let Liu Xie's body go free, this person's imperial heart is not dead, once he leaves our control, he will definitely summon his old ministers and generals to rise again." ”
Li Long shook his head and said, "In that case, give Luoyang Palace back to him." ”
Li Ru nodded and did not speak.
Now that Liu Xie has made a request, it means that he has pinched the weakness of Li Long's inability to control the murderous well, but it is impossible to give him real power, and the palace can return it to him.
Equally.
It's just a different cage.
Day.
Liu Xie agreed to Li Long's arrangement.
A letter was quickly delivered to an island in the East China Sea.
On the island.
A middle-aged man in a yellow robe was fighting with a black Jiao.
"Cunning stinky snake, don't hurry up and spit out the spirit bead of the old way! Look how the old way eats you alive! ”
