Chapter 238: The End of the Xiliang Army
Li Dao and Guo Yan led a large army and stormed Luoyang for four consecutive days.
But Luoyang, the city is really strong, and it can't be attacked for a while.
Later, they asked Jia Xu for advice, and Jia Xu was very helpless, this counterattack on Luoyang had made him stand on the opposite side of the scholars.
It's just that he also knows that now that he is in the enemy camp, if he can't satisfy them, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to get out of this camp.
Hey, that's it.
Jia Xu sighed, holding the mentality that the dead Dao friend will not die and the poor Dao, he told the generals that the defenders of Luoyang rarely experience battle formations, and now they are just in one go.
Tonight, you can implement the strategy of exhausting the enemy, and wait until dawn, and suddenly launch an attack, and you can conquer Luoyang.
The generals couldn't help but rejoice, and if they succeeded, then they would no longer have to worry about being afraid.
Li Dao did not hesitate, and immediately went down according to this plan.
He assigned Wang Fang and Li Meng to lead their headquarters to harass Luoyang in turn, not allowing the defenders to get a respite.
The rest of the army seized the time to rest and recuperate for the last moment.
Now the situation is getting more and more tense, the princes and armies of the Quartet are all on the way to Luoyang, and the future of their Xiliang army depends on tonight's battle.
Jia Xu looked at the situation in front of him and secretly decided to wait until dawn to escape from here and completely get rid of Li Wei's control.
Li Wei couldn't understand the situation, but he knew it very well.
Now that the princes from all walks of life are gathering in Luoyang, although it is not clear why they came so punctually, he can also make a general statement.
Unexpectedly, at this time, the one in the palace would also be able to issue instructions to other princes.
It seems that he has also been forced to a certain extent.
In Gucheng to the west of Luoyang, it has been three days since Zhao Yang led his army here, and now he is not in a hurry to go to Luoyang.
After the past few days, he has continuously received news, and he found that the combat strength of the Xiliang Army is indeed very fierce, and it has been so long that there have been less than 30,000 casualties.
"Lord, when can we go to Luoyang?"
Dian Wei followed behind Zhao Yang and asked very puzzled. The desolate scene in front of him really didn't interest him.
Now he is a little confused why he didn't go to Luoyang, he originally thought that he would kill all sides when the time came, but now he stayed in this valley city for three days.
"Yo~ Hongfei is itching in his hands, and he is in a hurry to find someone to talk to?"
Zhao Yang heard the inquiry behind, he smiled, but in Dian Wei's eyes, it was like a demonic smile.
He hurriedly shook his head and stopped continuing the conversation.
Zhao Yang held on to the battlements and looked in the direction of Luoyang, feeling a little unbearable.
If it weren't for Emperor Ling, he wouldn't have his current status as Zhao Yang, but he didn't protect one of the two children of the first emperor.
Although it has been so long, Zhao Yang has already gotten rid of his original delicateness, and his heart has become very strong.
However, deep down, there is still some pity remaining.
"Hongfei, pass the order, tomorrow the army will be drawn and go to Luoyang Qinwang!"
Zhao Yang was still unable to do it in the end, watching the child struggle in the chaotic army, while he stayed here indifferently.
He instructed Dian Wei to leave here directly.
It's just that the moment Dian Wei saw him turn around, the struggle in his eyes showed.
He scratched his head, he didn't know why Zhao Yang had such a look, he planned to go to Fang Xuanling to ask later.
Zhao Yang walked on the street, looking at the pedestrians walking in a hurry.
He told himself in his heart that the only way to truly show mercy to others was to speed up his pace and end the chaos as soon as possible.
This mercy, even if it is me, Zhao Yang, is a repayment to the first emperor!
Zhao Yang clenched his fists, his eyes became more determined, he took a deep breath and walked quickly towards the mansion.
To the east, Cao Cao led an army of 50,000 and had just captured Xingyang and killed the two brothers Li Li and Li Xian, the defenders of Xingyang.
"Lord, I just received the news that Zhao Yang has arrived in Gu City, but..."
Cheng Yu walked in at this time, and Cao Cao stopped the discussion just now and motioned for Cheng Yu to continue.
Cheng Yu told Cao Cao that after the state army arrived in Gucheng, he stayed there for three days, thinking that Zhao Yang wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.
Unexpectedly, early this morning, the whole army left Gucheng and headed towards Luoyang.
Everyone was very puzzled, it only took half a day from Hangu Pass to Gucheng, as for staying there for so long?
Cao Cao groped his chin, but he thought of the reason why Zhao Yang stayed for three days.
It's just that why did he give up and continue to fall, and later it was Guo Jia's words that woke up Cao Cao.
"Zhao Yang's luck is good, if it wasn't for the first emperor, it is estimated that he would not have the status he has today."
The speaker has no intention of listening, Guo Jia muttered there, so that everyone suddenly realized, but what they thought in their hearts was different.
"Hey, Zhao Ziyan, what a hero!"
Cao Cao exclaimed, and then ordered the generals to rest as soon as possible at noon tomorrow, and no longer rest halfway through Luoyang.
In Luyang County, Nanyang County, at this moment, the people are all in the middle of the road to welcome Liu Bei, who came from afar.
Although when he was in Youzhou, Zhao Yang's words made him hesitate for a long time, but on the way south, Jian Yong told Liu Bei to pay attention to military discipline.
Liu Bei accepted Jian Yong's proposal and strictly ordered the sergeants not to disturb the people.
Liu Bei looked at the scene in front of him, and was even more grateful to Jian Yong in his heart.
Without the original cause, it would not have produced today's fruit.
"Strategist, look at the people of Luyang, they are really enthusiastic about the lord!"
Wei Yan followed behind Liu Bei, and he quietly muttered to Pang Tong, Pang Tong's ugly face couldn't help but show a praising smile at this moment.
"Wen Chang, this is mainly when I went south, I stayed in Luyang for a period of time, during which the lord restrained the sergeants and strictly forbade disturbing the people and harming the people, which is what we have today."
Pang Tong explained to Wei Yan in a whisper, he was very glad that he was able to meet such a benevolent monarch.
Liu Bei didn't seem to hear their exchange, and he naturally waved to the people on both sides, causing bursts of cheers.
Liu Bei's eyes looked to the northwest, and the light of hatred burst out in his eyes.
Zhao Yang!
This time I'm here to see how you can resist my army of 30,000.
Liu Bei exuded a faint murderous aura, which puzzled the surrounding generals, but they all knew that there would definitely be a fierce battle after arriving in Luoyang.
"Your Majesty, good news, good news!"
Dong Cheng hurriedly ran into the Heart Cultivation Palace, Liu Xie suddenly stood up when he heard it, and hurriedly asked Dong Cheng what happy things he had.
Dong Cheng eased his mood, and he told Liu Xie that Liu Bei, Cao Cao, Zhao Yang, and Sun Ce had all come to the periphery of Luoyang and formed an encirclement of the Xiliang army.
Liu Xie couldn't believe his ears, happiness came too quickly, making him feel a little unreal.
Suddenly, Liu Xie kowtowed several times in the direction of the imperial mausoleum, and he thanked his ancestors and ancestors for appearing and blessing him to survive this difficulty.
At this moment, outside the city, Li Dao got the loss of Xingyang, his two nephews were killed, and he couldn't help but be furious in his heart, regardless of the dissuasion of Guo Yan and others, led the army to the east to meet Cao Cao.
Guo Yan looked at the distant army and the dilapidated situation in Luoyang, he looked up to the sky and shouted, as long as he held on a little longer, he could break through the city gate.
The great opportunity was wasted.
Of course, he also knew that the chance for Xiliang Army to survive was also wasted.
