Chapter 60: Guan Long Qin Feng 19
readx;?? Different from Liu Bang in history, the heroes of Pei County, who originally belonged to Liu Bang, in addition to Fan Xu, Lu Xuan, Yongya and the Lu family, such as Xiao He, Cao Shen, Wang Ling, Xiahou Ying and others, have already become important ministers and generals under Zhang Jiashi. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
This has a very big impact on Liu Bang's strength. But in such a world, except for Zhang Jiashi, I am afraid that no one else has thought of such a thing. Unless, there are also people in this world who are like Zhang Jiashi, who are traversers from the next generation.
The current Liu Bang naturally doesn't know such a situation, after the lack of Xiao He, Cao Shen, Wang Ling and other capable ministers who originally relied on his henchmen, Liu Bang has to rely more on the Lu family and people like Cao Wuxian to many extents.
It can be said that under such a circumstance, Liu Bang's command was able to gather more than 100,000 people again, which is more of the limit of what Liu Bang himself can do.
In Zhang Jiashi's original world, Han Xin once commented that Liu Bang could only lead 100,000 people at most, but in such a situation, maybe Han Xin underestimated Liu Bang's strength, or maybe Liu Bang has grown a lot in such an environment.
In short, Liu Bang was able to lead more than 100,000 people into Wuguan under such a situation this time, and then go north to the Guanzhong area, in fact, Liu Bang's own ability can do this.
After all, even if it is a rabble, hundreds of thousands of rabble are not so easy to manage.
After Han Xin received the news from the scouts he sent to Wuguan, he was very surprised that Liu Bang was able to get so many troops. But at the moment, even if it is entangled in such a situation, there is not much point. He will quickly send someone to inform Zhang Jiashi, hoping that Zhang Jiashi can make a means of dealing with it as soon as possible.
......
In Han Xin's heart, there was no problem with Zhang Jiashi's arrangement, but after knowing that Li Cang actually only had 10,000 people as the vanguard and took on the heavy responsibility of sniping Liu Bangjun, Han Xin felt that things were not good.
It's not that Han Xin believes in Li Cang's ability, although Li Cang's background is not very good, but everyone including Han Xin knows very well that Li Cang's learning ability is very high, and in the years after the Battle of the Great Wall, Li Cang was able to sit firmly in the position of the captain of the prisoner army, which is more a manifestation of his own ability being recognized.
But there are some things, no matter how high Li Cang's ability is, I am afraid that there is no way to recover the battle situation that was originally a complete disadvantage.
You must know that Liu Bang's troops are not several times his size, but more than ten times his.
If Wang Lijun's advance was hindered for some reason, I am afraid that Li Cang's situation would be even worse.
......
After Zhang Jiashi received Han Xin's warning, he didn't take any action. He is not the kind of person who sits idly by and watches his generals get into trouble and does nothing.
He even wanted to lead the troops to support Li Cang. But Chen Ping stopped Zhang Jiashi's impulsive behavior: "Your Majesty, no, if the king goes south easily, what should the situation in Guanzhong be?"
Chen Ping's advice was not untargeted, but at noon today, the left-behind troops in Beidi County sent a piece of information, that is, the Qin army in the Longxi region seemed to have signs of large-scale mobilization.
This means that Ying Ziying is likely to have taken control of the Qin army forces in Longxi County.
Once in this situation, Zhang Jiashi evacuated the garrison that was already not too large, then if some accidents occurred in the next moment, they would also be unable to effectively deal with the threat from the west.
In desperation, Zhang Jiashi could only let Han Xin also lead 10,000 officers and soldiers, follow behind Wang Li's army, and go south to Wuguan Road to support Li Cang.
And after Han Xin learned about Zhang Jiashi's arrangement, he didn't have too many opinions, but immediately implemented it. However, after Han Xin completed the preparations for sending troops, it was already three days after Zhang Jiashi ordered his troops to block Liu Bang's troops.
...................................................... Dividing Line................................................
The death of Qin II Hu Hai was already a few days ago. But for the entire Great Qin Empire, Hu Hai's death could not even make some waves.
The world will not return to a peaceful situation because of the death of such a person. Everything is just like the troubled times more than ten years ago, and the soldiers are in trouble.
After Li Cang led his army south, he soon encountered the 5,000 vanguard army under Liu Bang near Jiaxian in the section of the Wuguan Road built along the Danshui River.
After first knowing this situation, Li Cang did not immediately lead the army to attack, but first divided the army into two halves, one was the vanguard force blocking Liu Bang's army, and the other was to seize Jiaxian.
The two lieutenants under Li Cang's command led the prisoner army to easily defeat the vanguard army of 5,000 people led by Cao Wuxian. However, less than an hour later, Liu Bang personally led the main force to arrive.
Looking at Liu Bangjun, who was almost all over the mountains outside the city, Li Cang was silent for a while, and then asked the more than 4,000 officers and soldiers outside the city to retreat to a hill in the north-northwest of Jiaxian County and build a barracks.
And he personally led the original 5,000 troops to defend Jiaxian.
Liu Bang did not rush to attack Jiaxian, but sent a lobbyist to the city of Jiaxian.
Li Cang was a little surprised when he saw the other party coming alone on the city gate tower, but for him, the other party's intention was to persuade him to surrender.
And just as Li Cang thought, this lobbyist hoped that Li Cang and his troops would surrender to Liu Bang and stop serving the tyrannical Qin who had already gone away.
It's just that Li Cang didn't wait for the other party to say anything else, so he took a hard bow directly from his personal guard, and aimed at this lobbyist who didn't seem to notice such a situation and was still boasting, and bent his bow and arrows.
About two or three seconds later, the lobbyist was about fifty or sixty meters away from the city gate tower, and was directly shot through the neck by Li Cang's arrow.
The other party looked at Li Cang, who was still holding the hard bow, in disbelief, covered his bloody wound, and died unwillingly next to his mount.
Li Cang didn't want the other party to say something that could shake the morale of the army. After all, the convict army under his current command, after many replenishments, many people are no longer the ones who followed behind Zhang Jiashi in the Afang Palace camp back then.
A considerable number of these convict officers and men were reorganized by him when he went south to Shang County, and after a fierce battle, he looked for suitable personnel on the spot for reorganization.
The ability of these people is secondary, but loyalty or something, Li Cang does not think that they will be completely loyal to Zhang Jiashi.
This is one of the reasons why he divided his troops in half.
Because according to Li Cang's thoughts, the people who were lined up outside by him were the ones who were really loyal to Zhang Jiashi.
And the city wall of Jiaxian County, in many cases, also makes these people under his command more confident.
......
Liu Bang thought that in such a situation, he might be able to rely on the strength under his hands to make Li Cang work.
However, he didn't expect one thing, that is, Li Cang actually ignored the confrontation between the two countries and did not make such an arrangement, but directly shot and killed a lobbyist who served him.
Liu Bang was very angry, he looked at the short city wall of Jiaxian County in the distance, and his eyes erupted with anger.
But Liu Bang did not completely lose his mind, but asked Zhang Liang: "Mr. Zhang, can we go down to Qin Gou in Jia County?"
After thinking about it, Zhang Liang quickly nodded: "Pei Gong, there is no danger to defend here in Jiaxian, and we only need to send personnel to take turns to attack Jiaxian, maybe at night, we will be able to attack Jiaxian in one go." ”
Hearing Zhang Liang's words, Liu Bang couldn't help but nodded. Because although Zhang Liang didn't say his better advice, in the current situation, even if Li Cang wanted to defend this small city, it was an impossible thing.
But Zhang Liang quickly added: "But, Pei Gong, if we can't stop the connection between the Qin Dogs in Jiaxian County and the Qin Dogs they arranged to camp in the mountains, I'm afraid that if we want to capture Jiaxian, it will not be very difficult." ”
Zhang Liang's words clearly showed a meaning, that is, in the attack on Jiaxian, they must divide enough troops to block the support of the Qin army located in the north-northwest of Jiaxian, otherwise, under the attack of the other side on both sides, the cost of capturing Jiaxian will be very large.
Liu Bang was deeply convinced of Zhang Liang's suggestion, but for Liu Bang, Zhang Liang's arrangement actually did not make him very satisfied. Because what he wants is to let this Qin army force be destroyed in his hands.
However, Zhang Liang did not say such an arrangement, which naturally means that Zhang Liang himself was not sure that he could completely annihilate the Qin army of nearly 10,000 people. Liu Bang is not the kind of person who is full of optimism, but is very practical.
Since Zhang Liang thought that his idea was unlikely to be done, he didn't say anything more, but asked the officers under his command to make corresponding arrangements.
............................................................ Dividing line ..........................................
Lu Shizhi and the other Lu family members and Fan Xu did not know the commander of this army, but it could be seen from the other party's banner that the other party was indeed a unit under Zhang Jiashi's command.
Their understanding of the Liaodong Army is even more unclear than Xiang Yu's. After all, the current Xiang Yu, after the battle with the Liaodong Army a few months ago, noticed this army under the command of Zhang Jiashi, who was appointed as General Zuo by the First Emperor Yingzheng.
And what makes Fan Zeng and others more concerned is that Zhang Jiashi should not be the kind of wine bag and rice bag. First, although Zhang Jiashi occupied a favorable position in the battle with the Donghu people, compared to the Donghu people who occupied the people, the other party was still able to make the other party fall into heavy damage, which can be seen that the other party is extraordinary.
Second, Wang Li, who has a higher position than Zhang Jiashi and is more powerful, is actually willing to take refuge under the other party. It can be seen that even if this Zhang Jiashi, who Xiang Yu doesn't pay much attention to, his ability will not be bad.
Of course, after learning about Zhong Liwu's death, Xiang Yu increased his vigilance against the Liaodong Army. Because he can casually damage one of the generals under his command, the other party will not be a prisoner with wine bags and rice bags.
Third, what made Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng really raise their vigilance against the Liaodong Army was not the battle between Zhang Jiashi and the Liaodong Army and them and the Chu Army, but after uniting with Wang Li's army, they quickly defeated Tian Heng and Zang Di's troops.
At this point, even if it is replaced by Xiang Yu, it is difficult to do such a thing in the other party's situation.
This is also the reason why the princes of Xiang Yu, Fan Zeng and Chu began to pay attention to the Liaodong Army and Zhang Jiashi.
But for Liu Bang, such a matter has nothing to do with him.
Although Liu Bang and Zhang Jiashi at that time were not like Zhang Jiashi and Zhao Tuo, who had already seized dangerous areas and blocked the border areas, Liu Bang at that time did not expect that his next opponent would be replaced by Zhang Jiashi in less than a year.
So Liu Bang didn't pay attention to such a thing.
However, Liu Bang and Zhang Liang will soon regret such a situation.
But before they regretted it, Zhang Jiashi now regretted why he made such a hasty decision in the first place?
......
Liu Bang's main force of the Chu army soon carried out the operation.
The first to act was still Cao Wuxian, a person who would betray Liu Bang in history. But in such a situation, something like the Hongmen Banquet is no longer possible.
Although his troops were defeated by the two lieutenants under Li Cang's command in the battle more than an hour ago, Cao Wuxian's subordinates did not pay any price.
Cao Wuxian, whose casualties were only hundreds, quickly gathered his scattered troops after the arrival of the main force under Liu Bang.
After counting, the losses were about 1,000 men, most of which were routs who had fled elsewhere.
If Zhang Jiashi knew such a situation, it might be incredible. Because even in the face of the Japanese, he has never encountered such a thing.
Of course, Liu Bangjun's combat effectiveness was still much stronger than that of the Japanese at this time.
On Zhang Liang's order, Cao Wuxian led his army from the hills six or seven hundred meters north of Jiaxian County, crossed Jiaxian, and set up a battle formation between the prisoner army in Jiaxian County and another prisoner army that was urgently building a camp.
Of course, Li Cang knew about such a situation, but he didn't do anything, because he knew very well that he was going to besiege this Chu army, and it was not too difficult to solve the other party. It's just that the problem is that he knows very well that even if his troops flank these thousands of Chu troops in front and back, it is impossible to completely destroy the other party and return to Jiaxian.
Because time can't be rushed. The other party will not let him seize such an opportunity and miss the opportunity.
Sticking to Jiaxian is the best way. Because Li Cang knew very well that instead of fighting with the enemy in the field, it was better to delay time in such a place.
He was nothing more than a vanguard, and he knew very well that before the arrival of the main force of Wang Li's army, all he had to do was to delay Liu Bang's army in this place as much as possible.
Well, although this part of Jiaxian, apart from the low city walls less than four meters high, is no better than the other army camped on the hill.
Perhaps because he was worried that Li Cang would make a desperate bet, or because he saw his own action arrangement, Zhang Liang quickly made the next step after Cao Wuxian's troops began to pass through the range of Jiaxian.
That is to let Lu Ze's troops directly launch an attack on Jiaxian.
......
Lu Ze was honest, and he didn't want to fight with the army under Zhang Jiashi's command. After all, in many ways, although there has been no contact for many years, the matter of his nephew and the friendship he had back then made Lu Ze slightly stunned after receiving this order.
After he came back to his senses, he was about to say something, but he felt that his foot was lightly stepped on by Fan Xu next to him and his younger brother Lu Shizhi.
Lu Ze, who knew why the other party did this, could only take the order and leave.
Looking at Jiaxian, which was getting closer and closer, Lu Ze, who was riding on a white warhorse, said loudly: "Chong, !!"
Lu Ze is not the kind of brave military attaché, but more like an elegant civil official. After shouting such a sentence, Liu Bangjun, who was carrying a large number of ladders or siege equipment in his hands, rushed to Jiaxian under the command of Lu Ze Jianfeng.
......
Faced with such a situation, to be honest, Li Cang couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, because he didn't expect that the Chu army on the opposite side would actually attack like this.
However, listening to the louder and louder shouts and the clearer and clearer formation of the Chu army, Li Cang quickly came back to his senses and showed a wry smile:
"If the other party doesn't know what he should do in the face of such a city, then he is still too stupid. ”
While thinking about such a sentence in his heart, Li Cang turned his head fiercely and said to a lieutenant behind him: "Chen Mao! You bring two thousand brothers to guard the south gate and the west gate respectively! Cheng Xi! You bring a thousand brothers to show me the north gate!"
"Whoa!"
The two lieutenants named Chen Mao and Cheng Xi took orders and left.
But for Li Cang, whether such an arrangement is correct is still unknown. Because it is very likely that the other party will only directly attack the direction of the east gate of his place.
If this situation really happens, once the defenders of the other city gates can't catch up, maybe this Jia County will soon be broken by the Chu army.
But Li Cang didn't think there was anything wrong with his tactics, because in the current Jiaxian County, he was obviously at a disadvantage to the Chu army.
Especially in terms of materials.
......
Although Li Cang asked the troops to bring sufficient supplies before leaving, at present, in addition to some bows, crossbows and arrows carried by many officers and soldiers, only the more than 30 horse-drawn carriages that were driven into Jiaxian County had grain and arrows.
A large amount of other supplies were concentrated in another unit.
He had indeed miscalculated! Because he never thought that the arsenal of Jia County would be able to starve rats to death!
Li Cang obviously ignored a situation, that is, Jiaxian County was not far from Wuguan, and the materials stored in Jiaxian's arsenal had long been carried out by the defenders of Wuguan.
And Jia County is not a priority to supplement. Therefore, the situation that Li Cang encountered made him want to cry without tears, and at the same time, it also made Li Cang take a very big responsibility for his defeat and death......
