Chapter 452: Destiny is in Han!
Guanzhong.
Zhao Yun was surrendered to Chencang City, and then rested in Chencang for a day, and then took Chencang's 700 defenders to cross the Huangshui River and march towards Yongxian.
In one day in Chencang, Zhao Yun also figured out the situation in Chencang City.
originally thought that this Wang Sheng surrendered, really because he admired the Han family in his heart, but the result was that because this person was a moth of the country, there were not many defenders in the city at all.
is the remaining soldiers, all of them are also incomplete, with thin faces and yellow muscles, and it is clear to a clear-eyed person at a glance that these soldiers were squeezed by Wang Sheng.
There is no need for him to surrender, as soon as the Han army goes down, I am afraid that Chen Cang will be taken.
But
This Chen Cang guard can be regarded as knowing the current affairs, and this person's surrender can be regarded as a good start for the rest of the Wei army guards.
The Han Kingdom naturally wants to set up this person as a model, which is a great reward.
He was going to tell the rest of the Wei guards in Guanzhong.
Surrender, you can save your life, you can have wealth!
If you don't surrender, there is only a dead end!
The art of war is cloudy: siege for the bottom, attack the heart for the top!
If the Han army wants to take Guanzhong at the minimum cost, relying on brute force alone, it will naturally not work.
"It's Yongxian in front."
If there are 1,000 defenders in Chencang, then there are only a few hundred defenders in Yongxian County, which are actually composed of thieves in the county and Xiangyong in the county.
Yongxian is the spring and autumn Yongyi, the capital of Qin Degong is here, and the public migration to Liyang. After Qin Shi Huang unified China, Yongxian County belonged to internal history.
Yongxian County is still behind Chencang, and in the case that it is impossible to be threatened, it is naturally impossible for the county to have a large army to defend.
Even if Yongxian ordered Qinshan to gather three thousand Ding Zhuang that night for the purpose of defending the city, this Yongxian County still looked like it was crumbling.
Looking at the people of Yongxian County who were forcibly requisitioned, they were all submissive, and their minds were not on defending the city at all.
If the Han army attacked, I am afraid that it would be broken up in an instant.
After all, it was forced, and it would be good if it could fill the faΓ§ade.
What he is looking forward to now is that Yongxian County will hold on for ten days.
He had already sent an envoy to Chang'an to ask for support, and the other envoy followed the direction of Cao Zhen to lead the army to quell the rebellion, and sent the news that the Han army had entered Guanzhong to Cao Zhen, the general of Zhenxi.
If these two reinforcements arrive, Yongxian will be worry-free.
But now the key is how to hold out until reinforcements arrive.
"It's coming, it's coming, the Han army is coming."
In the distance, I saw the traces of the Han army.
The number of people is getting more and more, getting closer and closer, and gradually, in front of the Wei defenders in Yongxian, it is all the Han army.
These Han soldiers are neatly armored, and at first glance they are the elite divisions of the Han army.
With the Han army, there are also siege equipment built overnight.
Rushing cars, ladders, catapults.
Although the number is small, the chariot lying across the battlefield already gives people a great sense of shock.
Grunt~
Many of the Wei troops defending the city were already swallowing and spitting, and there was fear in their eyes:
"There are so many Han troops, how can we stop them?"
"I still have an eighty-year-old mother, and I have children who are still drinking milk, and I don't want to die!"
"Aren't there Huns outside the city? Why don't you let them defend the city? β
On the city wall, the requisitioned people have already begun to riot.
To requisition the Huns, it is also necessary for those Huns to be obedient.
Around Yongxian, there are indeed two Huns, the number of which is between 10,000 people, and they can pull out a thousand horsemen, and in terms of the degree of elite, it must be better than the people in the city who are forcibly conscripted.
However, those Huns will not be obedient, and he will do profitable things, and they will not do unprofitable things such as defending cities.
"Defend Yongxian, people will reward a piece of cloth, no need to make noise, my Wei army reinforcements will come in an instant!"
Morale is preserved, that's the key!
As long as you can withstand the first wave of the Han state, you can withstand the second and third waves of the Han army's offensive.
Nayong County will be able to hold it!
Soon, the offensive of the Han army came.
"Rush~"
"Kill!"
The Han army was like a black cloud pressing down on the city, and the dense array approached the city of Yongxian. The Wei army was led by the people, armed with rudimentary weapons, and their faces were full of fear and helplessness. These people, who usually plough the fields and cultivate the land, are now pushed to the brink of life and death.
Knock knock~
With the beating of war drums of the Han army, the earth-shattering shouts of killing followed.
The soldiers of the Han army were like tigers descending from the mountains, they set up ladders and climbed to the head of the city without fear of death.
On the ladder, the figures of the soldiers swayed in mid-air, and they struggled to climb, each climb as if they were fighting for life with death.
Seeing this, the Wei soldiers and civilians at the head of the city immediately became a mess. Some of them were helpless and stood still; Some tried to wield their weapons, but they couldn't use their strength. Fear spreads like a plague among the population.
Whoosh~
There were only a hundred archers shooting arrows in the city, but the sparse number of hundreds of arrows could not stop the Han army hiding behind the chariot at all, and it could only cause some damage to the Han army climbing the ladder.
Boom boom boom~
At the end of the siege sequence, the catapults of the Han army were already beginning to exert their might.
Huge stones were thrown towards the city.
As long as it is rubbed by a stone, it is a huge casualty, and it turns into meat puree, and it is all good luck.
The worst are those who have broken their hands and feet, lost half of their bodies, but are not dead.
That's a miserable one.
"Ah~"
"Help!"
"Mother~"
"My legs, my legs!"
For a time, Yongxian County seemed to have become a purgatory on earth.
"Hold on! Resist! Qin Shan shouted hoarsely, trying to stabilize his position.
However, the morale of the forcibly conscripted men had collapsed, and their resistance was getting weaker.
At the same time, the offensive of the Han army became more and more fierce. The soldiers on the ladder were getting closer and closer to the city, their eyes shining with victory.
Some brave Han soldiers had already reached the top of the city, brandishing swords and guns, and engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Wei soldiers and civilians.
The battle has entered a white-hot phase.
At the head of the city, swords, swords and shadows were intertwined, and shouts of killing and screams came and went.
Although the Han soldiers were brave, the Wei soldiers also burst out with amazing strength in despair.
However, the scales of war have tipped in turn.
With a strong offensive and tight coordination, the Han army gradually gained the upper hand. There were fewer and fewer Wei soldiers and civilians in the city, and their resistance was getting weaker and weaker.
In the end, with a desperate shout, the last group of Wei troops and people defending the city collapsed directly, dropped their weapons and fled towards the city.
These Han soldiers are not people, run away!
As for Yongxian Lingqin Mountain, it was buried early by the Han army that rushed to the city.
"Defeat Yongxian!"
At the head of Yongxian County, the soldiers of the Han army cheered for victory.
The Han army will be rewarded for their merits, this time they captured Yongxian and killed a lot of enemies, these are all rewards, converted into money, for them, it is a big number.
Rushing all the way from Yangping Pass to here, it is finally a harvest.
Yangping Pass was captured, and Wang Sheng followed the Han army into the city, with a sense of luck in his heart.
Fortunately, he made the right choice that day, otherwise, the fate of this Yongxian Order would be the fate of his Wang Sheng.
The Han army entered the city and soon took control of all the key points in the city.
Subsequently, Zhao Yun found the subordinate officials who were still in the Yongxian Mansion and asked them to post notices:
When the Han army entered the city, it was the king's division to recover and return to the land, and he would not slaughter the city!
As long as there is no chaos in the city, it was the Wei army before, and it is not to blame in the past!
The strong and powerful of the scholar clan can have a quota to join the Han Forbidden Army and be a member of the Imperial Forest Army if they offer money and food.
The notice went down, and Yongxian, which was originally in turmoil, was stabilized.
Wei took Guanzhong, but the days were not long, and they did not have the consciousness of the Wei people.
In other words, I have not yet developed the values that I am a Wei person.
Most people consider themselves Han Chinese.
Knowing that it was not the Huns outside the city who captured Yongxian, but the army of the Han Emperor Liu Xuande, the resistance in my heart was much smaller.
Coupled with Zhao Yun's series of policies to reassure the people, Yongxian County was completely pacified.
Night.
There were many powerful leaders of the Shi clan who visited Zhao Yun.
Offer money and food, and let the children of the family serve as soldiers and generals under Zhao Yun.
"General, the Han army has come here, outside the city of Ranyong County, there are still two Xiongnu tribes, with a total of more than 10,000 people, this Xiongnu must be eliminated!"
Ren Zhou, who was originally the chief secretary of Yongxian County, stepped forward and suggested to Zhao Yun.
"Not bad."
Wang Sheng also said on the side: "The Huns are rampant, they don't obey the king, if they are not eradicated, it will be a big disaster!" β
In fact, there is a contradiction between the local Han people and the people of other races.
For example, these Huns have been planting grass in the enclosure around Yongxian, while the Han people in the city want fertile land to cultivate.
One side is a foreigner, the other side is a local, and contradictions naturally breed.
If it were normal times, they would naturally have to swallow their anger.
No way.
Can't beat the Huns.
But now it's different.
Master Wang has arrived.
It's time to clean up these Huns.
"These two Xiongnu tribes, with more than 3,000 war horses, tens of thousands of cattle and sheep, will be harvested here, and we and other Han people in the city will also provide money, grain, grass and military supplies for the general."
The people in Yongxian County thought that they had given less benefits, and they increased their weight.
But Zhao Yun's expression was very calm.
Is this using me like a sword?
Zhao Yun immediately shook his head.
"There are now more aliens in Guanzhong than Han Chinese, can they all be killed? As long as the aliens are obedient, there is no need to raise swords against them. β
The Han people in Guanzhong and the Han Kingdom should be ambushed, and the aliens in Guanzhong should also be subdued.
They are all population, as long as they can pay taxes and obey the conscription, they are the people of the Han Dynasty!
These aliens in Guanzhong, as long as they are properly educated, may not be without the possibility of becoming Han Chinese.
"This"
Hearing this, the people of Yongxian County had a look of disappointment in their hearts, they originally wanted to make the Han army into a knife, but they didn't want this goal to be achieved.
"Your Majesty will come soon, if you have the money, food, and military needs to be properly prepared, the opportunity to soar to the sky is close at hand, as for the Huns, I will send someone to inform them, if they are naturalized, they will be Han subjects, then if they are obsessed, my Han's sword soldiers, will not be disadvantaged."
The Emperor of Han is coming?
The people present immediately dispersed the slightest unpleasantness.
Liu Xuande's name, everyone present was like thunder.
Under the dissemination of news by the military division, the image of the big man is actually very tall in the hearts of these Guanzhong people.
In their minds, there are already such thoughts:
Liu Xuande is a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty and a relative of the Han family!
Now he inherited Han Zuo and became the emperor of the Han Dynasty.
If it can be reused, won't the family take off?
If you can get on Liu Bei's thick thigh, wouldn't it be able to achieve a family jump, and then the influence of the family will not only be in Yongxian, but a county, or even a state, and in the end, after several generations of accumulation, it is not impossible to become a big family like Hongnong Yang and Runan Yuan.
Many people already have thoughts in their hearts.
"Li Ji, this time you are the envoy, go to the Xiongnu tribe, and ask these two Xiongnu to surrender to us, each family will send 600 cavalry, and send 1,000 war horses!"
Li Jinai is a student of the martial arts hall, and he has the identity of the prince, and now he has been sent to the grassroots level, so he has come to make contributions.
Zhao Yun has a good impression of people from Wutang.
After all, capable people are liked by everyone who is a boss.
"No!"
Li Ji gladly accepted the order.
Like him, who was born in a martial arts hall, there are many opportunities for meritorious service.
And as long as you make meritorious contributions, you will rise very quickly.
He was originally the son of businessman Li Ming, and now this opportunity is naturally in his hands.
He doesn't want to be the third duke, but he wants to be a county guard of 2,000 stones, and he can glorify the lintel, so he is content.
In fact, many of those who were born in the martial arts hall have already sat in the position of county guard.
These people who were born in the martial arts hall are also a key part of Liu Chan's mastery of the Han Dynasty.
In Li Ji's heart, there is still a sense of urgency in his heart.
After receiving the mission.
Li Ji immediately took a hundred elites and headed towards the Xiongnu tribe outside the city.
There were two Xiongnu, one in the east and one in the west.
After gathering information, Li Ji decided to head towards the Huyan Xiongnu tribe to the east.
Huyan is a noble species of the Xiongnu.,This part is a branch that returned from the Huyan Department of the grassland.,Accept sinicization for a long time.γ
The news he found was that the Xiongnu were more obedient.
You can't go wrong with what is easy beforehand and then what is difficult.
Out of Yongxian, not far to the east, the fields were gradually replaced by grassland.
These grasses grow half a man tall, and judging by their rise, it seems that they can continue to grow taller.
This is the land next to Weishui, which was actually used by the Huns to grow grass.
How can the benefits of planting grass be compared with the benefits of farming?
It's really a vain to blind such a fertile land.
After a short time, you can see the Hun cavalry.
In fact, when Li Ji entered the grassland, he was followed by several Hun cavalry from afar.
As he got closer and closer to the tent where the Huns had gathered, more people followed.
Some of the Han soldiers in the team have begun to get nervous.
However, Li Ji's face did not change.
The Huns believed in the way of the jungle, worshipping the strong and bullying the weak.
If you show cowardice in front of the Huns, you will be looked down upon by them.
In the distance, in the early green land, the direct flow of the water passed, a tent came into view, of course, in addition to the tent, in the place surrounded by many tents, there was a small dock fort.
When they arrived in the Han land, the Huns also began to build cities.
"The front is the Huyan Department, cheer up!"
You can already see the place where the Huns gathered, Li Ji's hand holding the horsewhip was slightly wet, but the expression on his face was still calm and serious.
"Driving~"
"Whew~"
Head-on, they saw a Hun cavalry rushing towards them.
The leader of the Huns still has a Hun hair ornament, but he is already wearing Hanfu, which looks a little nondescript.
"Who is Your Excellency, how did you get to the boundary of my Huyan Division?"
Li Ji already has a short beard, and with the robes of the Han envoys, he still has the prestige.
"Where did you come from the boundary of the Huyan Ministry? Under the whole world, is it not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister? Aren't you a big man? β
Big Han?
Hu Yanrong frowned, and his face showed surprise.
He looked at the flag behind Li Ji again, and his heart was even more shocked.
"You are an envoy of the Han Kingdom? The Han Kingdom has already hit Guanzhong? β
It's been a few years since he arrived in Guanzhong.,To be honest,It's been a lot of sinicization.γ
Otherwise, he would not have been dressed in Han clothes.
He still has some understanding of the situation in the world.
Guanzhong belonged to Wei, not Han.
However, a few years ago, the Emperor of Wei was defeated by the Emperor of Han, which led to the loss of the land of Hanzhong.
"My Han Emperor led 300,000 troops, towards Guanzhong, now the vanguard has arrived, in one day, descend Chencang, lay down Yongxian, and will recover Chang'an in a few days, is it possible that you want to block my Han 300,000 heavenly soldiers, for the anti-Wei loyalty?"
300,000!
Hu Yanrong was shocked in his heart, and immediately beat his chest with his right hand, and said to Li Ji: "I was originally attached to the Han Xiongnu, what do I have to do with Wei?" Messenger, please come in! β
Facts have proved that as long as the swords in the hands of the Han people are sharp enough, no matter how good they are, they can only sing and dance in the end. (End of chapter)
