In May of the seventh year of Qin Xianning, the Qin army went out of Tongguan again, and the general Zhang Peixian led his troops to storm Hangu, and the Qin army did not seem to have the slightest feeling of being defeated in the past year, and the morale was strong, and everyone was vying for the first place, and each used his life. (The fastest update speed is on the Aishang Novel Network biquge.info)

Under the horror of the Hangu defenders, they asked for reinforcements to go east one after another, but for the soldiers and horses of the Later Zhou Dynasty, who ran north and south last year, fought one after another, and all the departments were damaged, and they were extremely tired, where could they send reinforcements in such a short period of time? The fall of Hanya Pass made it inevitable.

More than 10 days, Hangu lost, the guard general Xie Zhen led the remnants to flee eastward, the Qin army chased after the victory, Xie Zhen had to respond bravely along the road to the state capital township, and fight and go, and the Qin army vanguard Wang Yingbu fought one after another, and finally was besieged in the Shuangfeng Pass of the west twenty miles of the pond, the main force of the Qin army then arrived, under the siege, that night, the Zhou general Xie Zhen killed himself in the army, the deputy general Mao 11 led more than 1,000 remnants of the army to surrender, Xie Zhenzi Xie Wenyuan led hundreds of henchmen, took advantage of the night to break through, and the Qin army Ji fought the night, and finally could not get out, all died in battle.

At the end of May of the seventh year of Xianning, the Zhe Hui army camped step by step, but secretly sent the general Zhexi to move forward, and raided the Zhou water army after the Sanhe crossing, and burned the Zhou water army dozens, and the Luoyang water army commanded Shi Kangping to only lead a few ships to flee back to Luoyang, and then Shi Kangping bribed Luoyang to stay behind, and also led the privy deputy envoy Qian Zufan, and falsely accused the Luoyang Luoyang garrison to make Wen Chengwu report unfavorably, resulting in the defeat of the water army.

And the defeat of this battle, in fact, no wonder others, or Luoyang stayed, and the deputy privy envoy Qian Zufan was shocked when he heard that the Qin people were coming again, he was in a hurry, did not listen to the persuasion of Wen Chengwu and others, and lightly sent the naval army out of the city to meet the enemy, and now the defeat, Qian Zufan was frightened, but he just wanted to find a scapegoat to come out, so he desperately sent people to send people to Kaifeng to send the request for help to Kaifeng, and at the same time ordered people to take Wen Chengwu to prison but sent his own sons and nephews to escort his family members to deport Wen Chengwu into Beijing, and they all went to Kaifeng in one go.

His actions came down, so that the morale of the Luoyang defenders was greatly depressed, not to mention, up and down, other Luoyang guards have sent people to escort their families to flee east, for a time Luoyang people panicked, the soldiers have no fighting spirit, the Qin army has not arrived, every day out of the city to flee, but has been in groups, Qian Zufan at this time is awakened, urgently ordered people to lock the four gates of the Jin Governor Feng Dake to lead the responsibility of guarding the four cities, forbidden people to go out of the city.

But it's already late, it's night, more than 100 guards guarding the gate of Luoyang East City, killing the leading soldiers to steal open the city gate and leave, but no one notices, until dawn, the gate of the East City is wide open, the fleeing people rush out, the soldiers forcibly close the east gate when they arrive, kill and rob the door of the people dozens, the sound of blood crying everywhere shakes the heavens and the earth.

On that day, the people of the four gates of Luoyang gathered in front of the city gate, praying that the guards of the gate would open the city gate, let them go, begging to no avail, Ji was angry, and the defenders suddenly clashed, and then quickly evolved into civil unrest, and spread to the city, the defenders of the four gates of Luoyang went out of the camp to quell the chaos, until the evening, Luoyang City returned to calm, but only this day, the people of Luoyang were killed and injured more than a thousand, the whole Luoyang, it is a miasma, at this time, even ordinary people also understand, Luoyang may not be able to hold

On the second day of the sixth month of the seventh year of Daqin Xianning, Zhang Peixian folded his troops under the city of Luoyang, and then besieged the ancient capital of Shenjing.

But I have to say that it is not easy to attack a big city like Luoyang, even if the civil strife in the city does not stop, after the death of Meng Hui, the morale of the guards is low, but when the Qin army arrives, it will attack for several days, but it will not be obtained.

At that time, the Luoyang emergency report had already spread, and the Zhou court was shaken, but there was not much hesitation, and various reinforcements were urgently sent to rescue Luoyang.

But the fatal thing is that there is little grain and grass left in Luoyang, if you want to blame, but you have to blame the last year of the war, after the Zhou reinforcements will be in full swing, driven out of Heluo, all walks of life to the imperial court to ask for credit, there are many exaggerations, and the army generals, such as Yue Donglei and others, and the Qin army Ji battle, and bravely captured the Hangu Guancheng, so that the Qin army corpses are innumerable, wolf bèi and go, but also thought that the Qin army was greatly injured, and then there was no power to march into Heluo.

As a result, the general ministers in the Later Zhou court, from the regent onwards, all thought that Heluo was worry-free

And after this year's war, all kinds of soldiers and horses are frequently transferred back and forth, and the Qin people have been fighting for nearly half a year, the cost of grain and grass is really amazing, since I think that the Qin people are powerless to peep eastward, and it is winter, although the grain and grass have been transported to Luoyang, but for hundreds of thousands of people in Luoyang, this grain and grass is really pitiful, and can only barely maintain daily use.

But the Later Zhou court is also unable to, the grain of the autumn harvest of Heluo, most of them are swept away by the Qin people, the armies of all walks of life come and go, eat along the road, waste countless grains and grasses, and it is a big hole, so in the early summer of this year, the grain and grass in Luoyang are still dragging it, only when the autumn harvest comes, the granaries in Luoyang will be slightly richer.

But at this time, the Qin army came, and the speed of the march was not comparable to the previous year, and when Luoyang was the same and the road was cut off, Luoyang's grain and grass were only enough for half a month, which was less than when it was most critical last year.

This strategic blunder is undoubtedly fatal.

For more than half a month, the reinforcements did not arrive, and Luoyang ran out of food

At this time, the advantage of the Qin army is actually not too great, hundreds of thousands of troops, stuffed in the narrow land of Heluo, facing the same situation as last year, the result of delaying time will be to face the siege of the swarming Zhou reinforcements from all walks of life.

But unlike hundreds of years ago, when Tang Taizong Li Shimin attacked Luoyang Wang Shichong, no one in the Qin army was willing to retreat at this time... There is no need for Zhang Peixian and others to boost morale. In the whole army, there was no one who retreated, even if Wang Ying's troops repeatedly attacked the tiger and could not hold it, and the troops of the Folded Convergence Department were in Ruzhou, and the 8,000 Qin troops were repeatedly attacked under the Yanshi City, and no one persuaded them to withdraw in front of Zhang Peixian.

June 20, the general Zhixi in Ruzhou City under the flow of arrows, unfortunately died in battle, under the great mourning of the Hui, personally to the front of the battle, the overseer attacked, more said, after the city is broken, will slaughter the city, but the people in the city, regardless of the sword and arrow, cooperate to defend the city, more than ten days, Ruzhou Jiancheng, still stand still.

This is not counting, Zhang Peixian's fierce general Sun Yu died in Luoyang City, the general Wang Chengye died in Luoyang City, the general Gu Xinghe died in the Tiger Prison, and Su Youcheng, the general of the forbidden army in front of the palace, died in Beishan.

The war was stalemate, although the Qin army armor was good, but the armies of the Later Zhou Dynasty, the resistance of the Ji Lie, compared to the previous year, more than the same, the Yanshi guard general Zhao Hanchen died in battle, the deputy general Lu Sheng succeeded, Lu Sheng died in battle, his wife Yang led three hundred Fuzhong family generals to the city to resist the enemy, and died with her husband, the army and the people felt it, Zhao Hanchen's youngest son Zhao Guang was the main, fought to the death, and firmly dragged the elite of the eight thousand Qin army under the Yanshi city.

Cai Wenjun, the defender of Ruzhou, was seriously injured in defending the city, fighting to the death for the soldiers and civilians of Ji, killing himself, Zhizhou Xu Guoshan is a literati, leading the crowd to defend the city, holding forward, wearing several wounds, when the blood is exhausted, he shouts to kill the thief, pounces on the city, and dies with the enemy, don't drive Yan Xu to follow, the soldiers and civilians in the city, go forward and follow, will fold a piece, and drag it to death in Ruzhou.

Compared with the smooth battle in the river, what the Qin army did not expect was that the second Heluo battle was so tragic and tragic.

If this stalemate continues, the war will turn in the direction that the Qin people least want to see......

But at this time, Luoyang ran out of food.

This ancient capital of the Central Plains, in the land of four wars, after wind and rain, once the Central Plains smoke everywhere, this prosperous ancient capital, set up into a floating hell, there is no escape from the fate, empty mountains and rivers in the face of the prosperity, but as if by the fate of the curse, can not become the emperor's business, so let this ancient capital gradually abandoned by the emperors of the past dynasties.

And this time, as if reincarnation was fate, it still did not escape.

First of all, Qian Zufan, who stayed in Luoyang, saw that he couldn't do anything, and under the panic, he led a large number of people to open the gate of Luoyang East City, Yu broke through the siege and left, but fell into the Qin army's array, and was finally captured by the Qin army, and took advantage of the situation to enter the east gate of Luoyang, and Luoyang City was broken

When the guard Feng Dake heard the news that Qian Zufan had fled first and the east gate was lost, his eyes were torn, and he led the remnants of more than 10,000 people out of the city and fought with the Qin army on the bank of Luoshui.

The Qin army beat the drum and marched, Feng Dake led his troops to fight and come and go, and finally fell into a heavy siege, it was night, Feng Dake was in the chaos of the army, lamenting that the villain had misled the country, and killed himself, except for more than 1,000 henchmen, who did not surrender in the battle to the death, all died on the bank of Luoshui, and the rest of the troops all surrendered, it was night, and the city of Luoyang fell

This is undoubtedly a battle that turned the tide of the war, Luoyang fell, and the Qin army finally found the most stable foothold in Heluo.

The general Zhang Peixian entered Luoyang, while sending messengers to report the victory to the imperial court, and at the same time urgently ordered Tongguan to transport grain and grass into Luoyang, in order to solve the danger of Luoyang's grain and grass.

Two days later, Jiang Shan went to Ruzhou, and the confluence of troops to attack Ruzhou, Ruzhou was broken, the people were killed and wounded, and it was unbearable to fight, Jiang Shan's new army, morale was flourishing, and the attack was not stopped, and finally before the arrival of Jingxiang reinforcements in the Later Zhou Dynasty, they trapped Ruzhou and blocked the passage on the back of Jingxiang reinforcements.

And the Tiger Prison Pass and Luoyang are close at hand, and the soldiers and horses of the Zhou Dynasty have gathered in the Tiger Prison Pass, but Luoyang has fallen, and no one dares to lead the army out of the Tiger Prison.

Zhang Peixian took the opportunity to divide the troops out of four places, and set up the Heluo Prefecture Mansion, at the end of June of the seventh year of the Great Qin Xianning, the Yanshi city was broken, and the land of Heluo, the beacon fire gradually subsided, and at this time, the Qin army stood on Luoyang, and the Chen soldiers were between Heluo, but there were no worries.

"Heluo battle report, great victory" Chong Qi Niang walked in with an unconcealable joy on her face.

Zhao Shi was dressed in light clothes, and was bowing his head to deal with military affairs, Wen Xiang, raised his head violently, and took the battle report from her hand to take a closer look.

This look, even for a while, Chong Qi Niang did not bother, poured fragrant tea for him, sorted out the table, and worked hard for a long time, and then stood quietly behind Zhao Shi.

Zhao Shi looked carefully, the battle report was general, but he could also see a lot from it, and after a while, he put down the battle report, which was expected, but also a little surprised.

Unexpectedly, this time the troops were dispatched, and Luoyang was really laid, laying a solid foundation for the future pacification of Hou Zhou, but unexpectedly, the casualties were much heavier, according to the battle report, the casualties were nearly 10,000, and the leading general also killed as many as four or five people.

"The casualties are a bit heavy," Zhao Shi couldn't help muttering.

Chong Qi Niang raised her heroic eyebrows behind him, and said with a smile: "Although the Later Zhou monarchs and ministers are dim, there are always some loyal ministers, otherwise, where can they be self-sufficient in the Central Plains for so long?" It's good news, so we can breathe a sigh of relief here, right? ”

Zhao Shi turned his head and smiled, this is true, once Luoyang is taken, and the defenders of Tongguan echo each other, even if the Jin soldiers go south, the threat to the army's grain route is no longer so great, and the battle situation in the river is not as important as it used to be for the main force of the army, isn't the burden on the body much lighter?

But I heard Qi Niang smile and said: "This time, General Zhang doesn't know how much gray hair he has to worry about, where is there still leisure to take care of us?" ”

Looking at the wife with a little sly and gloating smile on the corners of her mouth and eyebrows, Zhao Shi couldn't help but feel hot in his heart, couldn't help but take her hand, rubbed it a few times, and Chong Qi Niang's face immediately turned red

But then, Zhao Shi's brows gradually twisted, and when she saw it, she was a little uneasy, but after a while, the smile faded from her face, and the husband and wife thought almost at the same time, I'm afraid this is not a good thing

You know, what can make General Zhang's gray hair is not another, it's just a grain umbrella, there is no grain in Luoyang, hundreds of thousands of people are waiting to be fed, is there enough food and grass for the army? Even if it is enough, can the court support it?

At this time, it was only three months before the autumn harvest in June, and the burden suddenly increased like a lot, and there were no variables in between?

Needless to ask, where would there be none? Hezhong doesn't talk about it first, how can Hou Zhou be willing to lose such a heavy land as Xijing? It is inevitable to lead the army to counterattack, and once the military food is insufficient, will the grain and grass be supplied to the Heluo army first, or will this division in the river be partially divided? Do you still need to think about it?

Damn, Zhao Shi scolded in his heart, if there is no rear support, where will he get so much grain and grass?

However, in the end, it is just a worry, how much grain and grass is in Tongguan, and how much grain and grass was transported to Tongguan in a year last year, he does not know, the matter of grain and grass, to the Ministry of Returning to the Army, the assistant of the Ministry of Households, and when he arrives in Tongguan, there is also Han Cong who grasps that he is not the commander of the army Zhang Peixian, and can be reported by Han Cong

"Don't be too much, even if Heluo is short of food, you can't cut off the grain and grass in the river," Chong Qi Niang comforted softly.

Zhao Shi nodded, this is just a hidden worry, even if the grain and grass are short, it will not immediately cut off the supply in the river, but then he shook his head and said, "I'm not worried about this, I'm worried about the military department."

Chong Qi Niang's eyes flashed, and she was silent.

Zhao Shi stood up and paced a few steps, the battle report was still too general, Heluo was short of food, I didn't say how much was missing, Luoyang grain and grass were Yu, otherwise Luoyang would not be able to fight, but Heluofu County was short of food? What is the situation of spring ploughing in Heluo? He didn't know any of that, so it wasn't easy to guess.

Quande, Zhao Youyan.

After a while, the two of them arrived, and Zhao Shi directly instructed the two of them: "I ordered the two of you to go to Tongguan to ask for food, remember, find someone to ask Well, you can ask Lord Han directly, how much is Heluo short of food?" Let him tell the truth, if he is vague, you two must ask for enough food and grass for two months of an army of 100,000 to come back, if he refuses, quickly return to me, understand? The two of them left in accordance with the order, and Zhao Shi instructed again: "Pass the order, before the military rations in Tongguan arrive, all departments will save money, and those who have extravagant expenses will be punished heavily." ”

Chong Qi Niang was taken aback, and couldn't help persuading: "In this way, it will hinder the morale of the army, I'm afraid it's not appropriate" Zhao Shi frowned and shook his head, "Take precautions, it's better to be sooner rather than later, when it's really time for a shortage of food, that's why it's troublesome for more than two months, and when the Mid-Autumn Festival is harvested in the river, there will be nothing else......

Zhao Shi smiled bitterly, the army is short of food, what kind of battle are you fighting? At that time, I'm afraid there is only one way, there is a lot of surplus food in the people's homes, and some forced requisition will always be able to alleviate the urgency of the army, but then, the people in the river are afraid that they will not be as stable as they are now. But in the river

It's only going to get worse

"Alas, I laughed a little early, it turned out that it was our ...... who had gray hair" Nose Qi Niang said depressedly, the previous elation was gone, but there was no trace of it.

However, her words made Zhao Shi laugh, "Okay, maybe it's because we're worried about it, hey, we beat Shuzhong, if you are hungry at this time, you will be punished."

Chong Qi Niang also giggled, "If you really cut off the grain Menglin, Zhang Peiguan, a man like Meng Qing, it is better to send them all back, and you can save some grain and grass......

"Do you want to add your husband and me? Is it best to let you lead the troops with less food like this? The husband and wife replied with a smile, and they couldn't help laughing......!
