Chapter 132: Hoshino Changes
The sky is vast, the wilderness is vast, and under the stars, our eyes are to the west, across the vast plain, the vegetation is becoming more and more scarce, and the barren loess is gradually revealed. The battle under the jade bi was extremely fierce, inside and outside the city, the two armies fought against each other, and the tall walls were full of feathered arrows.
Hu Luguang did not play his cards according to common sense, he did not pay attention to Yu Wenxian, who was still in a stalemate with Gao Changgong on the front line of Baigu City in Fenbei, but went straight to Yubi, which made Wei Xiaokuan and Yu Wenxian unexpected.
Wei Xiaokuan successively sent troops and Hu Luguang's army to fight in a small area, but was defeated by the Qi army one after another, and was forced to be helpless, as a last resort, Wei Xiaokuan had to completely shrink the battle line and retreat to Yubi, and the two sides were deadlocked for more than a month.
While attacking Yubi, Hu Luguang built a city around Yubi, connected and built Huagu and Longmen, and sent heavy troops to guard it, intending to isolate Yubi.
Wei Xiaokuan is worthy of the name of the world's first guard, in the Qi army such a ferocious attack actually resisted, in January, the Qi army failed to advance, even a piece of land must be carefully fought for half a day, and finally often because of the inability to succeed and was snatched back by the Zhou army, the two sides were deadlocked.
The wind blew a wave of heat, Hu Luguang took off his helmet and looked at the foot of the mountain, and scolded in a low voice: "This old turtle is really evil!" Is he really going to never come out for the rest of his life? ”
"Zuo Xiang, if it goes on like this, we can't afford it......" Qi Lianmeng, who was as tall as a bear, appeared behind him. Qi Lianmeng has already hung a lot of colors on his body, and these days he and Xue Guyan have swept all the way around Yubi with most of their soldiers and horses, with remarkable results, but they have also suffered a lot of casualties.
Hu Luguang also sighed, they were violently attacking Yubi, and Yu Wenxian was also there to beat Gao Changgong to the death, surrounded on three sides, and put on a posture of wanting to eat Gao Changgong in one bite, which was very terrifying.
Hu Luguang knew that Yu Wenxian was anxious first, but Yu Wenxian's crazy attitude of ignoring it did give Hu Luguang a lot of pressure. Gao Changgong's troops are only more than 10,000 troops, and he has to divide troops to guard important places, and the soldiers and horses that can be mobilized at any time will never exceed 5,000, Gao Changgong is under great pressure, everyone in the world knows that Gao Changgong is a fierce general who breaks 10,000 troops with 100 people, and he is good at attacking, but he doesn't know if he is good at defending, in case Gao Changgong can't withstand the pressure to withdraw from Fenbei, then it is difficult for him to withdraw from the battlefield under the attack of Yu Wenxian and Wei Xiaokuan, and he has to lose a layer of skin if he doesn't die!
And Wei Xiaokuan seemed to know Yu Wenxian's thoughts, and the two sides cooperated very tacitly, dragging Hu Luguang's footsteps to death, so that Hu Luguang couldn't move, and he couldn't get out. Yu Wenxian and Wei Xiaokuan's singleton posture made Hu Luguang feel like he was punching down.
Since he couldn't take the jade, it became inevitable to leave a way back for himself to prepare more, so these days, Hu Luguang began to reduce the forces to attack the jade, spread out the troops, stepped up the construction of fortifications, and captured all the other Zhou army cities within hundreds of miles to defend the jade.
"A few days ago, I received a military report that the Governor of Dadu led 50,000 troops into Fenbei, but what about the people of the Governor?" Qi Lianmeng was very strange, if Duan Shao really entered Fenbei, not to mention defeating Yu Wenxian in the first battle, it was an absolute matter to lift Gao Changgong's siege, so they would not be so fortunate to fight here, "Did the Metropolitan Governor not enter Fenbei at all?" ”
Hu Luguang thought for a long time before he said: "I don't understand what this old ghost is doing, it's just that His Majesty's edict ordered us to obey the military orders of the Governor of Duan, then we will act according to the military orders of the Governor, and the rest don't have to pay attention to ......."
"But the Metropolitan Governor didn't send a military order...... "Qi Lianmeng is like a second monk at the moment, it's not that he is stupid, but the realm of generals like Hu Luguang and Duan Shao is not understandable to him at all.
Hu Luguang's eyes were deep, and he said: "There is no military order, it is the military order of the Grand Governor, and the order of the Grand Governor is to maintain the status quo, how we fight now, then how to fight ......"
"The Grand Duke?"
"For the rest, the Metropolitan Governor has his own arrangements! Why ask, let me ask you, how many cities has our army built now? ”
"Our army is already building the seventh city, and it will be completed soon......," Qi Lianmeng replied.
"It's only the seventh?" Hu Luguang frowned and said: "It's not enough, this speed is too slow, recruit the people and soldiers, and speed up the construction of the city for the old man, be fast!" ”
"I want Wei Xiaokuan, the old thief, to also taste the feeling of being surrounded by people copying the back road!"
In Fenbei, the Zhou army fiercely attacked Gao Changgong's department, and the pressure on the Qi army was very huge. Yu Wenxian and Gao Changgong, there were no bells and whistles, almost the moment Hu Luguang entered Fenbei, a battle to the death broke out!
"General, the Yuwen gendarmes and horses are concentrated on the south and west sides, do you think we are ......?" In the military tent, the generals debated fiercely around a piece of paper, and the handsome commander of the Qi army, the general Lanling Wang, stood not far away, pondering with his hands behind his back.
"You mean a raid, to defeat the first army?" Gao Changgong slowly opened his eyes, thought about it, analyzed it calmly at high speed, and then rejected the idea, "No, you look carefully, our battle line with the Zhou army is not parallel, but the dogs and teeth are intertwined, there is a stalemate in various places, our own troops are not enough, if we send troops to attack the camp, the Chinese army will be empty." Yu Wenxian may not be able to prevent a surprise attack by our army, a few days ago, Yu Wenxian ordered someone to dig a trench I don't know if you have noticed, he has long been guarding against us, if we go to the raid, it is in the arms of Yu Wenxian, this plan cannot be ......"
"General, the last general thinks that we can give it a try, now our army is already very critical, if we can't lift the siege of the Zhou army, then we will be swallowed by the Zhou army one bite at a time!"
"Critical? How critical can it be? Gao Changgong sneered and said, "He Yu Wenxian hasn't hit the door yet, so you're all panicking?" ”
He lifted the lance, pointed at Fenbei, and said: "Yuwenxian's offensive is so fierce, it shows that Yubi is in danger, and Zuo Xiang has already severely damaged the Zhou army. The more at this time, the more you can't give up, you have to grit your teeth and hold on. I don't believe it, can Yu Wenxian really swallow me in one go? He smiled: "I'm not afraid of breaking a tooth!" ”
"We're here with Yu Wenxian! We still have eight months of grain and grass, more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, and fifteen military towns, and we are not afraid to spend money with him, if he wants to fight, then I will drag him to death here! The long lance pierced the paper heavily and inserted it deeply into the wooden table, "Come on, pass on my military order, abandon the two military towns of Pingqiang and Pingrong, and retreat one by one with a thousand people!" Ordered someone to dig a deep trench outside the camp and stick to the rear! ”
"I want to see what he Yu Wenxian can do to me!"
The situation on both sides was a stalemate, and Duan Dadu still didn't move, and no one knew what he wanted to do. Half a month later, Yuwen Hu in Tongzhou finally couldn't help but make a move, and ordered Yu Wenchun and Tian Hong to lead more than 30,000 troops to attack Yiyang, and Yiyang was in a hurry!
If Yiyang is lost, Northern Qi is equivalent to losing a front station, although there is still Fu Fu in Yiyang, but Fu Fu only has 4,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, how can he hold Yiyang and other nine cities? Yuwen Hu's hand of smoking, undoubtedly touched the sensitive nerves of all Qi troops in Fennan and Fenbei.
Hu Luguang appeared under the city full of gunsmoke, invited Wei Xiaokuan to meet with him, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Yiyang is such a small place, if you lose it, you will lose it, it's boring to fight for so long!" Now we don't want it, we want to find a little compensation in Fenbei, if there is something offended, don't blame! ”
Wei Xiaokuan replied: "Yiyang is your important city, and Fenbei is the place we don't want, what compensation do you take for the land we don't want?" Moreover, you should follow the way of heaven and earth, and think that the people live and work in peace and contentment, how can you be reckless and cause resentment and calamity to the people? Coveting an ordinary land, causing thousands of miles of uninhabited people, corpses and bones, and ruining the lives of the already tired people, I really don't value it for you! ”
Hu Luguang sneered and said, "In this case, then Fennan and Fenbei, I will be in the bag!" Leave! Hu Luguang raised his horsewhip and turned to leave. Wei Xiaokuan walked down the city tower with an expressionless face, and when he turned the corner, he suddenly slammed his fist on the wall, with great force, and sprinkled the loess.
"Jie Shuai ......" Yang Su's eyes flashed with a look of surprise, Wei Xiaokuan has always given people a kind of indifference like a mountain, but it is rare to see Wei Xiaokuan so out of shape.
He took a few steps forward and wanted to support Wei Xiaokuan, but Wei Xiaokuan waved his hand to stop him.
Wei Xiaokuan's eyes flashed with a fierce color, and said: "I told Otsuka Zai a long time ago that the land of Yiyang is insignificant to the entire battle situation, Otsuka Zai doesn't listen, and now Da Zhou may lose six hundred miles of fertile soil, and Fennan and Fenbei will fall into the bag of the Qi army!" ”
Yang Su thought about it carefully, and a gloomy cloud floated between Ying Ting's eyebrows, only to hear Wei Xiaokuan continue: "Hu Luguang is too powerful, he can't move us here, Gao Changgong has tied the Duke of Qi to Fenbei, and now, we are facing a big rout!" ”
"Yubi has been isolated and has become a lonely city!" He paused, his eyebrows twitching, "And ...... There is also Duan Shao...... This old thing hasn't made a move yet, he went straight to Dinglong after fighting a few battles with tens of thousands of people, what does he want to do? ”
Wei Xiaokuan has been on the battlefield for many years, defeating countless famous generals, and he can't understand Duan Shao's purpose at this moment......
Hu Luguang wanted to lead Wei Xiaokuan to fight him, but Wei Xiaokuan didn't buy it. In Yubi, it was impossible to expand the results of the war, Hu Luguang retreated to the second, led the army to the north, surrounded Dingyang, built Nanfen City, and threatened the Northern Zhou. In Fenbei, Pinglong, Weibi, Tongrong and other towns were built thirteen, and extended to the west to Longmen. The division of troops guarded and expanded the land of Qi by 500 miles.
At this time, Wei Xiaokuan's Yubi City fell into isolation, and all his previous worries became a reality......
At this time, as long as one more force enters, the balance that is faintly beginning to tilt will immediately begin to return to balance, or, directly!
North of Dinglong, on the main road for the Zhou army to enter Fennan, the two cities were quickly built under the day and night construction of the Qi army, and Duan Shao, who had disappeared for many days, pondered for a long time on a piece of paper, "Let's call it the enemy and Pingkou...... Well, I finally raised my eyebrows and breathed a sigh...... The name should be loud and flattering......"
"I hope these two cities will be like nails, locking the way for Yuwen to go north to support......"
The corners of Gao Yanzong's eyes jumped, and after being a wooden man for a long time, he finally couldn't help but ask: "Metropolitan Governor, we should go to Yiyang for reinforcements next, right?" ”
Duan Shao was stunned when he heard this, turned his head and looked at him with strange eyes, "Why did the old man go to save Yiyang?" There is a better place waiting for the old man to grab it! ”
"But Yiyang is something that Zuo Xiang and Brother Wang managed to keep...... If you just lose ......"
"That's Hu Lu Mingyue and Gao Changgong's business, it's not the old man's business, if they were completely aware of the nails around Yiyang, would Yiyang be as precarious as it is now?" Duan Shao's face was expressionless, and his tone was gentle but cold like a stone: "There is an eighty percent chance that Yiyang will not be able to keep ......!" The old man still said the same thing, the old man will never do things that are not of much use......! ”
He turned his back and said to Gao Yanzong: "Instead of worrying about Yiyang's goings and stays, it's better to look farther...... It's also a good choice to give up Yiyang and take the entire Fennan and Fenbei......"
"Yeonjong...... If you can do big business, why do you have to settle those small accounts? This is not a general's bearing......"
"Pass the old man's military order, leaving 4,000 people to think that Yiyang is supporting, and the rest of the people will all go north with the old man! Hehe, I hope your brother can still hold on......"
Duan Shao opened the curtain, and outside the tent were countless warriors dressed in iron armor and ready to go, and the fierce anger came to his face, making Gao Yanzong's breathing stagnant, and the thin old man walked between such a group of fierce beasts as if he was strolling leisurely, countless eyes were projected on the two of them, Gao Yanzong's hand grabbed the hilt of the sword, and he stepped out slowly and firmly, following closely behind Duan Shao.
Duan Shao said: "Since Fu Fu is selected by His Majesty and among the ten thousand armies, he must be a big responsibility!" We have to have confidence in others, what about Yu Wenchun? What about Tian Hong? We didn't abandon Yiyang, and one day we will take it back! We want to drink Ma Fen water, and use the entire Fennan and Fenbei as the land of Daqi for horse grazing! For many years, the pseudo-Zhou has suppressed Daqi, and we must let this situation be reversed from here and from today! ”
Duan Shao pulled out the sword at his waist and shouted angrily: "All the generals obey the order, let's go back to the division - with the Zhou army, decisive!" One! Die! War!! ”
"Obey the orders of the Grand Governor!" "Obey the orders of the Metropolitan Governor!" "The whole army visited the shrine, on this day, the sound of the landslide and tsunami shook the heavens and the earth, so that the attacks of Yu Wenchun and Tian Hong, who were besieging Yiyang, were sluggish for a moment, and they all withdrew their troops and looked at the opposite side vigilantly.
Fu Fu, who was wearing armor, appeared at the head of the city, and for a long time, a firm smile was drawn at the corner of his mouth, and he bowed deeply in the direction of Yecheng, "Minister, you must defend Yiyang!" ”
Duan Shao led an army of 50,000 and returned to Fenbei with a thunderous momentum, and went straight to the back of the Zhou army Qi Gongyu Wenxian!
