Chapter 250: Ding Ding Jingxiang (1)
Xiangyang, gloomy clouds.
Wei Xuan's army was defeated, Tian Hong'anzhou's army was defeated and retreated to Suizhou, and the Zhou army of Xiangyang Yuwenzhi was in mourning, and the entire military camp seemed to be sitting on a powder keg, as long as a spark seed, it would explode with a "bang".
Although the imperial court frequently revised the book and said that it would come to support, and the soldiers and horses sent by the Qianzhou Assassin have also bypassed Fengzhou, but things have come to this point, Yuwenzhi knows that in front of him and behind him, the soldiers and horses of the Qi army will continue to come, Gao Changgong's next target is the company camp next to the water, as long as this place is solved, Xiangyang is dangerous, but it is just a lonely boat in the vast ocean, which can capsize at any time.
Gao Changgong came out of Nanyang, and because most of the soldiers and horses had been transferred to rescue Wei Xiangyuan, the speed of the army's march was much slower than before.
The Qi army also brought a lot of siege equipment, and also brought some heavy weapons such as bed crossbows to defend the city.
Lu Tongbuzhi's defenders in the camp of Chushui were only 8,000, but the terrain was dangerous, and it was difficult to attack from the back, and Gao Changgong fell into a bitter battle at the beginning.
Gao Changgong led the elite troops to attack the camp of the Zhou army in Shuishui, and threw all the brains in the rear to the deputy lieutenant Xiangyuan.
Gao Changgong is good at fighting in mountains and plains, and is known for being good at long-distance raids and tough battles, while Wei Xiangyuan is not, looking at the entire Hedong general, except for Dugu Yongye, no one is better at defense than him. At the time of the fierce battle in Fenzhou, Wei Xiangyuan had dragged the Zhou army in Yiyang for several months, which won Duan Shao and Hu Luguang a lot of time, and his main force was withdrawn from Zhezhou, showing a defensive posture, which was the most suitable arrangement.
When dispatching troops and horses to fully guard against Wei Xuan, Gao Changgong also did not forget to test Xiangyang, and naturally knew about the defense of Xiangyang.
Although it is an important pass in Xiangyang, there are only a few means of guarding the pass in Lutong, but it is better to have rich experience and keen intuition, so Gao Changgong handed over the command of the vanguard army to Yang Su, and he was fully responsible for conquering the camp of the Zhou army in Shuishui.
Yang Su's shot was not at all unfamiliar with a new general, on the contrary, he was very ruthless, and his strategy was also very vicious, and he would save the enemy. After several unnecessary attrition battles with Lu Tong, he finally discovered the weakness of Lu Tong's defensive arrangement. In the camp of the company in Shuishui, there is a mountain ridge where the terrain is not dangerous, no one is stationed, Yang Suqin led 500 elites, bypassed here, crossed the water, and then turned back to counterattack the Chinese army camp in Lutong.
The Qi army attacked inside and outside, and in a hurry, the Zhou army was completely chaotic and defeated. Lu Tong was shot with an arrow in the chaotic battle, and then fled back to Xiangyang by his own soldiers desperately guarded, so far, the last barrier of Xiangyang can be said to have been uprooted.
Fortunately, Lai Yuwenzhi was not completely dizzy, and hurriedly dispatched troops and horses to help.
made Yang Su's plan to chase and fight fiercely and kill and injure a large number of Zhou Jun failed.
Although a lot of grain, grass, arrows and arrows were lost, the troops were preserved to the greatest extent.
Yuwen led the army to rush to the front, although there were many defenses around him, but injuries were inevitable in the end, and the wounds were swollen, and he could only lie on the horse every day.
On this day, when he was overseeing the battle at the head of the city, there was a quick horse to report.
That Zhou military sentry rode all the way non-stop, and after arriving in Xiangyang, he fell to the ground and fainted before he could say the first half of a sentence, and Yuwen Zhi's heart was suddenly like a heavy hammer hit, and he hurriedly glanced at the contents, and couldn't help screaming, and fell to the ground in shock, anger, horror and fear.
A group of generals and personal soldiers poured water and pinched people to invite Langzhong, and finally made him wake up, and after waking up, he still clutched the military newspaper in his hand, and cried in front of the generals:
"Now that our army is defeated, a certain person will definitely die!
"Wei Xuan's surprise attack failed, General Tian Hongtian was defeated and died, Wang Lin and thieves washed Suizhou's blood, and Shunzhou looked at the wind!
"From today onwards, we are all fish and meat on the case of Qi thieves, cattle and sheep under knives!"
If before, he still had the illusion that he hoped that Wei Xuan and Tian Hong would succeed, and Xiangyang was still alive, then now, he was already disheartened, like dead ashes. In the current situation, not to mention that he can't turn the sky upside down, even if his father Yuwentai is still alive, he is still powerless to return to the sky!
The two Qi armies, Gao Changgong in the north has already attacked the city, and Wang Lin in the back has destroyed Tian Hong, and will soon send troops to the north to form a siege of Xiangyang. Old Lu Teng was too busy to take care of himself, the strength of the states west of Xiangyang was weak, not to mention whether they could open up the road to Fengzhou, even if it was a detour, it would take a lot of time, Xiangyang ...... It's over!
Yuwen has been pampered since he was a child, although he is pretentious, but in the face of great difficulties, fear has finally overcome the calm of strong self-support.
Lu Tong had a bandage wrapped around his shoulders and stepped forward to persuade:
"The general doesn't need to panic, the battle situation is changing rapidly, and you can't talk about victory or defeat until the last moment......
"Although the Qi army has swept the rear, on the western front of Fengzhou, our reinforcements from all walks of life are still gathering.
"At present, Gao Changgong's offensive is so fierce, it just shows that the Qi army is tight, he wants to fight quickly, and return to Fengzhou after taking Xiangyang, our army only needs to firmly defend the city, and the general will take the lead to boost morale, and Xiangyang City will definitely be able to defend!
"The general keeps Xiangyang, that is, he keeps half of my Zhou country, the southeast gateway, and this merit is enough to be crowned king!"
Lu Tong is scheming in the end, as soon as these words came out, the crying Yuwen Zhi gradually stopped. What does Yuwen Nao want most right now? Of course, it's the king! But Yuwen Zhi's military merits and prestige are not good, even if he follows Yuwen Hu's ass every day, slapping horses and secretly sending autumn waves, Yuwen Hu doesn't want to bird him at all. The prince of the Northern Zhou Dynasty is not lightly sealed, and Yuwenzhi wants to get the prince, and he has to make great contributions to the sky.
Lu Tong's words can be said to have stabbed him right in the heart, and Yu Wenzhi, who was originally ready to surrender, instantly became energetic. That's right, all the soldiers and horses have been defeated, and I'm still there...... Ahh The king is knighted, just around the corner! So Yuwen defended Xiangyang directly, relying on the danger of mountains and rivers and the solidity of the city, and survived several rounds of attacks by the Qi army.
Fengzhou was in a hurry, and Yuwen Hu sent the general of the Pillar State, Xin Wei (strictly speaking, it is not the Pillar Country, but in order to increase the weight of the commander, it should be okay to write it like this.) Guo Rong joined the army as the commander-in-chief and deputy marshal, coordinated the reinforcements from all walks of life, and the Qi army fought on the western front, the Qi army was defeated, Xunxian was lost again, the enemy army divided the road, besieged Fengzhou and Wudang, the whole line of the western front was in an emergency, and it was in danger, Gao Changgong had no choice but to transfer the army to the west, leaving only thousands of men and horses to continue to besiege Xiangyang.
Yuwen breathed a sigh of relief and said happily: "Xiangyang can be guaranteed!" In his opinion, the main force of the Qi army is Gao Changgong all the way, and as for Wang Lin, he has not been taken into account by him.
His morale is already high, and he naturally doesn't look down on Wang Lin, who already has an absolute advantage and is still grinding and chirping in Anzhou and Suizhou.
In his opinion, as long as he brought tens of thousands of horses from Xiangyang out to fight Wang Lin, he could easily eliminate Wang Lin, and it could be regarded as a wretched spirit that was pressed and beaten by Gao Changgong!
Under Lu Tong's good words, Yuwen Zhicai chose to be a little more conservative and sent a small army to test it, while he sat firmly in the rear. Soon, though, he would fall into despair.
A never-before-all ...... Despair......
