Chapter 486: Loyal Blood
Li Yue's side fell into a stalemate, but Wang Meng of the West Road drove straight in, Lianke Pheasant County, Ye County, Duyang, Wuyin, Xi'e, Bowang and other cities, and the troops reached directly under Wancheng.
The reason why it can be so smooth is that on the one hand, Wang Meng uses his troops like a god, and his soldiers use their lives, on the other hand, Huan Wen transferred most of the main forces to Jianghuai, and there are only two people who can fight, Huan Chong and Zhu Xu.
But Huan Chong and Zhu Xu are Wang Meng's opponents?
In the first battle of Shuishui, Huan Chong gathered 60,000 troops to wait for work and tried to encircle and annihilate the Liang army.
Wang Meng took Liu Gaozhi and Zhuge Kan as the vanguard, and Xu became the Chinese army, and directly pushed it over, and the Jin army was devastated, and it was defeated.
Fortunately, Zhu Xu was brave and rescued Huan Chong, otherwise Nanyang would have been lost in this battle.
The Jin army retreated to Wancheng, and Wang Meng set up camp and built siege equipment on the spot.
At the same time, the Battle of Hanzhong also kicked off.
The Qin army marched in three directions, and Sima Xun blocked Fu Ya, but he couldn't stop Yao Chang and Yang An.
As soon as the Qin army entered Hanzhong, Qiang Di from all over the country responded one after another, Kaicheng surrendered, and the Qin army took several cities.
Sima Xun was indiscriminate, cruel and brutal, and had long lost the hearts of the people.
Fu Jian is a rare benevolent monarch in these decades, there are many surrenderers, Sima Xun turned around and fought with Yang An, Yang An couldn't hold out, and fought with Yao Chang, Yao Chang defended the wall.
Sima Xunkong had tens of thousands of troops and had no choice but to watch the Qin army encroach on the territory of Hanzhong little by little.
"Huan Wen gathers the elite of Jiangdong in Jianghuai, Your Majesty will be patient for the time being, the minister will break Nanyang first, and then attack Jingxiang, the old nest of the Huan family, Jingxiang Ruoke, the general trend of Jiangdong has gone!"
Li Yue read the letter sent by Wang Meng, felt a hot face, and set off with great ambition to set foot on the Jianghuai, and a month had passed, and he was still standing still.
Comparisons are odious.
However, what Wang Meng said is not unreasonable, if he loses Nanyang, Huan Wen may not care, he is originally interested in the northern land, but if the old nest Jingxiang is gone, Huan Wen is the dog who lost his family.
What's more serious is that Jingxiang is in the upper reaches of Jiangdong and has been operating for a few years, which can reproduce the situation of "Wang Junlou went down to Yizhou, and the king of Jinling was gloomy".
Now it seems that the road of Jianghuai is not so important.
The west road is the heart of the black tiger.
Thinking about it like this, Li Yue's heart felt a lot more relaxed, and he waited in Shouchun City with peace of mind.
Huan Wen is now Gu Dong and can't take care of the West.
A few days later, perhaps the battle report of Nanyang reached Huan Wen's ears, and the Jin army went against the norm and began to attack Hefei.
Li Yue sent a large army to support as usual.
At that time, Zhuge Ke's 200,000 troops could not break through the isolated city of Hefei defended by 3,000 people, and now how can Huanwen's 100,000 horses break the city?
As soon as the Jin army moved, Gao Yun, Zhang Hao, and Lu Guang were killed.
Gao Yun and Lu Guang mainly attacked and harassed, but Zhang Hao led the forward army to attack the base directly.
Although the camp was not breached, the number of casualties was so great that the Jin army changed color when they heard the name of Zhang Oyster.
The two sides dragged back and forth like this for a few days, and Wancheng took the first step to send good news, "Report to Your Majesty, Wang Dudu attacked Wancheng, the Jin army knew that it was invincible, and Zhu Xu burned the granary and retreated!" Wancheng has fallen into the hands of our army! ”
Huan Wen has been carefully running Wancheng for several years, and there are many stores in the city, but he didn't expect to be burned by Zhu Xu......
However, this is also an old tradition of Jin generals.
In that year, Li Nong's 20,000 cavalry went south, Chu Li fled in despair, and Chen Kui also burned Hefei.
"Wang Jingluo is a partial teacher, he can still conquer the city, and he is the elite of the country, how can he be left behind? Order, the army will go south, and go with me to meet Huan Wen for a while! ”
"Command!" The crowd will be overjoyed.
The grain and grass in the army can still support one month, and with the current development of the situation, I am afraid that it will not take more than a month, and the winner will be divided.
Jingxiang's nest is threatened, and Huan Wen will definitely not be able to stay in Hefei.
So Li Yue decided to drag Huan Wen and create an opportunity for Wang Meng.
Shouchun's army immediately went south.
The vegetables and beans grown in the fields outside the city are growing well and can be eaten in a few days.
Under the daylight, black clouds surged southward.
The closer they got to the battlefield, the more excited the soldiers became, and it had become a tradition for the Liang army to rejoice when they heard the battle, and no matter how hard the battle was, it would not be difficult for them.
If it weren't for Li Yue's cherishing soldiers, they would have rushed to the Jin army camp one after another.
To the northeast of Hefei, Gao Yun had already set up a large camp, and the army was directly stationed in it.
The Jin army camp has long lost its previous sharpness, the front of the camp is dyed black and red, and the broken corpses are no one to collect.
Although the battalion was full of flags and the soldiers were still in good spirits, it was difficult to hide the low morale.
Hefei City, which was swallowed by the giant python before, exposed a corner in a Jin army flag, and on the city tower, a huge "beam" character flag is waving in the wind.
And this banner is undoubtedly a merciless mockery of the Jin army.
Knock, knock, knock......
As soon as the Black Cloud army entered the camp, the sound of war drums came from the Jin army camp.
"Could it be that the Jin army will give it a go?" Gao Yun looked south.
The Black Cloud Army has an unstable foothold, and Huan Wen does have a few chances of winning in a decisive battle at this time, and this may also be Huan Wen's last chance.
Even if you can't defeat the Black Cloud Army, you can lose both.
Both defeats are not a defeat for Jiangdong, and the Liang army will not go south for at least ten years.
Li Yue laughed, "If Huan Wen had this determination, how could he be today?" ”
Back then, Huan Wenruo ordered a decisive battle and stormed Chang'an, but he was afraid that now most of the world belonged to him.
Human character determines fate.
Li Yue never believed that Huan Wen had the courage to give it a go, his mind was not completely focused on the Northern Expedition.
Sure enough, after the drums, the Jin army camp was quiet, and the soldiers stood behind the antlers with their spears.
Sometimes, Li Yue is very sympathetic to these Jin troops, only they really want to "recover Shenzhou", but since Zu Li, they have been let down again and again.
Killing people, Li Yue ordered the lieutenant generals of the army to shout towards the Jin army: "Restore Shenzhou!" ”
The sound shook the heavens and the earth, as if countless sharp arrows were shot at the opposite side.
The Jin army on the opposite side was agitated.
The drumming stopped abruptly, and at this moment, several groups of men and horses slaughtered out of the camp and let out a roar, "Swear to destroy Beidi!" ”
His voice was mournful and desolate.
The several forces that came out of the base ranged from five hundred to dozens, all of them in a lifeless posture, running forward with knives, without array, and completely personal.
"The ancients often said that Yan Zhao is a generous and sad person, and when I see it today, Jiangdong also has it." Li Yue admired their courage.
Gao Yundao: "These people may not be from Jiangdong, and they are likely to be refugees from the north. ”
Li Yue thought about it too.
Two cavalry teams immediately rushed out of the Liang army camp and circled around these brave Jin troops, as if cats were teasing mice and attracting the hatred of the Jin army camp.
But after waiting for a long time, the Jin army did not move.
Gao Yun could only wave the command flag and behead these people under his horse.
Bright red blood flowed quietly.
"Bring back their corpses and bury them with a monument!" Li Yue's heart suddenly swelled with an unprecedented desire, the north and the south must be reunified, and only by reunification can these blood and loyal blood not be shed in vain.
Neither the Sima family nor Huan Wen are worthy of these brave men.
On both sides, they were each camping and extremely peaceful.
Although there is not much food, Chang Wei constantly transports cattle and sheep and other livestock from the north by land and water, and the vegetables and beans cultivated in the rear can also last for a while.
Cui Jin also brought a lot of dried fish from Cangzhou.
In the huge Liang country, it is impossible to be completely short of food, and there will always be a squeeze.
If you can't hold on, it's Huan Wen.
After resting in Wancheng for a few days, Wang Meng divided all parts of Nanyang.
Li, Biyang, Niyang, Champion, Li, and Lu are all Liangtu, and Nanyang and Hongnong are integrated.
"Your Majesty, the Jin army has a letter!" Yang slightly opened the tent and entered.
Li Yue thought it was Huan Wen, but after opening it, his expression changed, and it turned out to be Meng Kai......
