Chapter 517: Abandoning Suzhou, King Qin sent troops

Outside Zhenguan, Bei Minghao rode the Nine Shadows Dragon Horse, followed by Dian Wei and Xu Chu, not daring to leave the slightest;

Liu Bowen and Guo Jia sat in the carriage and talked happily with each other;

Huang Zhong and Guan Yu rode war horses and led 20,000 troops in front, while Zhang Fei and Chen Tang led 20,000 troops in the back to defend the Chinese army. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It turned out that after Bei Minghao got the white flying pigeon biography, he immediately set out with a large army, intending to personally supervise the battle and capture Li Shimin and other princes;

However, his goal was not the Eastern Imperial City, but planned to pass through Linyuan City, go south to Dingzhou Sunset City, and attack Dingzhou from Sunset City;

Then send an army north to Yunzhou, attack the north and south with the friendly forces of Yongzhou, take Yunzhou, cut off the back road of Cangzhou, cut off Li Shimin's wings, and finally ambush on all sides, attack Qinzhou, and capture Li Shimin.

This is the general marching strategy of the Northern Underworld Army, of course, in terms of details, it needs to be considered more.

And Bei Minghao naturally did not fight alone, while sending a message to Yongzhou Yue Fei to lead the army to the south, as the commander of the army, personally attacked Dingzhou;

At the same time, let Ma Chao, Long Ji, Xiong Kuohai, and Gao Siji go south with Yue Fei; In Yongzhou, there is Bai Qiyi in charge, and Bei Minghao is very relieved.

In Xuanwu City, Qinzhou, Li Shimin listened to the urgent report from the literature, and his face was extremely ugly.

"Waste, what a fucking waste, even a giant city like the Eastern Imperial City can't hold it, and the waste is to the extreme..."

For the East Imperial City to be lost in less than a month, Li Shimin felt that it was simply incredible, which was clearly given to Bei Minghao.

After roaring for a while, Li Shimin calmed down and waited for the ministers to speak.

"My lord, the only way to do this is to bring the princes together, otherwise I am afraid that they will be annihilated by the Northern Underworld Army..."

Xu Shiji saw that Li Shimin's face was slightly softened, and he was the first to offer advice.

"Yes, because of the dispersion of the troops, the king of Pingzhou died, and the fall of Pingzhou was only a few days, so it is necessary to shrink the defense line, based on the four states of Qin, Ding, Yun and Cang, hold the defense line tightly, and wait for the opportunity to prepare for a counterattack!"

Wen Chong lost no time in opening his mouth and said the general strategy.

"Don't you want Suzhou? Could it be that he gave it to Bei Minghao like this? ”

As soon as he heard that Suzhou was not included in the literature, Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and asked quite unpleasantly.

"My lord, now that Lingchuan City has fallen, there is a flat river in Suzhou, and there is no place to defend it at all, and Wu Qi's army is in full swing, even if it is defended, I am afraid that it will not be able to hold it for too long..."

Wen Chong smiled bitterly, before the heart Dao Lingchuan City was lost, it was still able to hold it, but now if you want to hold it, it is simply as difficult as climbing to the sky.

"Okay, just do as you say, this king personally wrote a letter to Liu Yu, for the sake of the big move, he can only give up Suzhou!"

Li Shimin nodded unwillingly, but his face became very ugly.

"Lord, the connection of the four states, Ding and Yun Erzhou is the top priority, it must be heavily guarded, and it must not be taken advantage of by the Northern Underworld Army, otherwise it will definitely go!"

Suddenly, Xu Shiji's face was very solemn, and he opened his mouth to mention something to Li Shimin.

"What Gong Mao said is very true, pass on the king's order, let Su Lie and Guo Ziyi lead 50,000 troops respectively, garrison Yun and Dingzhou, and be sure to ensure that the two states are not lost!"

Li Shimin also knew that Xu Shiji was not alarmist, and directly ordered the two commanders under his command to come out.

When Su Lie and Guo Ziyi heard this, they respectively took 50,000 troops and went to Dingzhou.

......

Outside Zhengyang City, Wu Qi received a good report from Xu Da, Xu Da swept the counties of Pingzhou in seven days, and everywhere he went, he all looked forward to the flag.

And Wu Qi did not let Xu Da return, but strictly instructed Xu Da to pay attention to the movements of Yanzhou in the south to avoid the invasion of the princes of Yanzhou.

And it didn't take long to find that the Suzhou army and the Eastern Qin army in Zhengyang City had abandoned the city and fled without a fight, which made Wu Qi quite happy, and the soldiers took Zhengyang City without blood;

On the other hand, Liu Yu, after the battle of Lingchuan City, lost his spirit, like a yellow dog, fled in embarrassment, and no longer had the previous high spirit.

In just seven days, all the Suzhou troops withdrew from Suzhou, entered Qinzhou, and deployed troops in Qinzhou, which seemed to have abandoned Suzhou.

In Sunset City, Bei Minghao sat on the main seat, the first person on the lower right was Yue Wumu, and below were Ma Chao, Long Ji, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Huang Zhong, Xiong Kuohai, and Gao Siji's seven generals.

On the right are Guo Jia, Liu Bowen, Cui Hao and other strategists, all gathered together to discuss the attack on Dingzhou.

"My lord, this Dingzhou is the transit between Yunzhou and Qinzhou, Li Shimin is only afraid that he will send a general to guard it, and it will not be easy to take it!"

Cui Hao spoke first, and he just planned to throw bricks and lead the way, so that everyone could speak freely and discuss the attack.

"Well, yes, Li Shimin is only afraid that he will send his generals Su Lie and Guo Ziyi, and it is unknown who will defend Dingzhou!"

Liu Bowen also nodded, with grace and wisdom under his delicate face, like a wise man;

"Pengju, what do you think? Are you confident that you will win Dingzhou in one fell swoop? ”

Bei Minghao didn't reply, but turned his head to look at Yue Fei and asked Yue Fei about his chances of winning.

"Lord, Guo Ziyi's ability to use troops is quite extraordinary, I am afraid that he is the first general under Li Shimin, and this time Dingzhou must be defended by Guo Ziyi;

"If you want to capture the entire territory of Dingzhou, it is by no means something that can be completed in a short time, and the victory or defeat of Dingzhou depends on the progress of the two generals on the northern front, General Bai Qi and General Li Jing."

Yue Fei saw Bei Minghao asking him about his chances of winning, thought for a moment, and then spoke, his words were not able to win such empty words in one fell swoop, but he said it very objectively.

"Well, the battle of Cangzhou, the situation is changing, I'm afraid that I won't be able to take it for a while, after all, Cangzhou has gathered the elite of the three states, as long as Dong Cheng and other princes are cautious and cautious, our army will never take advantage of it..."

Bei Minghao shook his head, Cangzhou is now the most chaotic and difficult state, gathering 30,000 elites under Xiao Yan and Chai Rong in Yongzhou, and 100,000 troops under Sun Quan;

Coupled with top strategists such as Wang Meng, Li Ru, and Fan Zeng, as well as generals such as Hou Junji, Lu Xun, and Lu Junyi, if they want to take the entire territory of Cangzhou, it is by no means possible overnight.

Therefore, they need to break through from the south, instead of waiting for the end of the northern campaign.

"Yue Fei listened to the order and ordered you to lead the army to set off tomorrow, attack Dingzhou, and supervise the battle with the army alone!"

Bei Minghao gave an order and decided to send troops to the counties of Dingzhou tomorrow.

At the same time, Guo Ziyi led an army of 50,000 and stationed in Liancheng, three hundred miles west of Sunset City.

Guo Ziyi was accompanied by the general Li Yuanba, the junior generals Xu Ning and Duan Zhixian.

Guo Ziyi's face was solemn, there was no vanity under the so-called fame, and this time Bei Minghao came to attack in a big way, and he was under great pressure.

"Ladies and gentlemen, tomorrow the Northern Underworld Army will definitely knock on the pass, everyone must stabilize their minds, and must not be impatient, and mistakenly fall into the enemy's plan to lure the enemy, and we will hold on to the city."

Guo Ziyi still plans to take every step of the way, fight steadily, not be reckless, and not give the enemy a chance to take advantage of.
