It's night.

He led 3,000 cavalry troops as the vanguard and attacked Huayin.

Behind him, five thousand Han troops followed.

When passing through the Tongguan Pass and the side of Fengling City, the whole army marched silently.

The march was top secret, with the soldiers mouthing to prevent the sound of conversation from echoing in the night sky, and the horses' hooves carefully wrapped to reduce the sound of the march.

The cavalrymen wore black cloaks, as if to blend in with the night, and they clenched the reins with a determined look in their eyes.

Where the horse's hooves stepped on, only a slight rustle remained, like a whisper in the night wind. The infantry followed, their steps light but swift, and the sound of their armor clashing was kept as low as possible.

In the night sky, the stars were dotted, providing a faint light for this army rank.

The breathing of the Wei soldiers was accompanied by the sound of neat steps, which was particularly clear in the silent night.

Seeing that the time was almost up, he immediately asked the soldiers on his side to give the order.

Far away from Tongguan and Fengling City, the speed of their Mercedes Benz was raised again, and when they were about to reach Huayin City, they reduced their speed again.

"Woo woo woo~"

Huayin City is not a giant city, the storage in the city is limited, and a lot of grain and grass are still stacked in the military fortress outside the city, guarded by more than 2,000 Han troops.

The cavalrymen, with cold eyes and clenched their weapons and reins, quickly approached their targets like ghosts in the night.

Due to the continuous transfer of grain and grass day and night, the city gates were not closed.

The Han soldiers panicked during the raid, some tried to organize an effective resistance, others fled in panic.

The Han army was awakened in their sleep, and many Han soldiers grabbed their weapons in ignorance, but it was too late.

The soldiers of the Han army in the city were caught off guard and were rushed to pieces by this sudden force.

The sound of horses' hooves was deliberately suppressed, and only a faint sound echoed in the silence of the night.

The cavalry stormed into the account and harvested human lives without mercy.

Their figures pulled out long shadows in the moonlight, like ghosts on the ground, silently heading towards their targets.

As a Wuhuan cavalryman, he was born to lick blood from the edge of the knife.

The night was like ink, and the three thousand cavalry of Wei were like a black torrent, quietly approaching the grain storage camp outside Huayin City.

However, the Wei cavalry shuttled through the camp like a whirlwind, invincible.

The military village here was originally guarded by 5,000 people, but because Puban City was besieged, 3,000 of them were transferred to Hebei.

The Han army in the camp was unaware, and many soldiers were immersed in sweet dreams, unaware of the impending disaster.

The blades of the Wei army flickered with cold light, and each swing took away a life. Blood splattered, wails came and went, and chaos arose in the camp.

The Wei cavalry took advantage of the situation and rushed into the city like a torrent.

At the same time, Huayin City was also in chaos.

With an order, the Wei army launched a charge like a tiger descending from a mountain, with iron hooves like thunder and dust.

The Han army followed, and they tried to regain the lost territory, but the Wei army had already occupied the favorable terrain and was ready to work. Fierce battles unfolded inside and outside the city at the same time, and in the shadow of swords and swords, the soldiers of both sides fought bravely.

However, the Wei army, with the advantage of cavalry mobility and surprise attacks, gradually gained the upper hand.

The battle lasted less than two hours, and Huayin City was completely controlled by the Wei army.

The trick of laying down Huayin did not relax his vigilance.

The task given to him by Sima Yi has only been completed by a small half.

Capturing Huayin City is just the beginning, how to defend Huayin City is the key.

The grain land was seized, and it is foreseeable that Zhao Zilong in Tongguan and the Han army in Fengling City must have taken action.

Even the Han army in Chang'an will come to reinforce it.

What he needs to do now is to prepare for a rainy day.

"Send grain and grass into the city, fill the warehouse city, and burn the excess on the spot, leaving not a grain of grain for the Han army!"

Cut off the grain road of the Han army and burn the grain and grass of the Han army.

If you can really take Tongguan and Fengling City.

The credit for his recruitment is not insignificant.

For the sake of merit, in order to seal his wife and son, in order to be able to join the ranks of the family.

He pulls the tricks.

Fight!

The news of the fall of Huayin City only reached Tongguan and Fengling City three days later.

In Tongguan, Zhao Yun immediately summoned the grain officer in charge of logistics in Tongguan, and immediately asked: "In Tongguan, how long is the grain and grass enough?" ”

The grain officer immediately said: "General Qiyu, the grain and grass in the city are enough for two months. ”

The Cangcheng in Tongguan City is not large, there are thousands of people in Tongguan City, and the speed of consuming grain and grass is very fast, and it can support it for two months, which is already beyond Zhao Yun's expectations.

"General, the grain land has been seized by the Wei army, once the news spreads to the army, the morale of the army will be low, and the top priority is to take advantage of the fact that the Wei army has not yet gained a firm foothold in Huayin and take Huayin back!"

Stand your ground?

"I can't even send out the scout report, I don't know when I got the news of the fall of Huayin City this time, the Wei army may have been prepared for a long time, if we rush out of the city, I am afraid that there is a danger of being ambushed by the Wei army."

Mi Yang is now the deputy general of Tongguan, and in the face of the critical situation, his face still remains calm and does not have the slightest panic.

"In Fengling City, Wei Yan led the army to Hebei to support, the defense is empty, if we are ambushed by the Wei army again, the situation will really develop in an unfavorable direction for our army."

Zhao Yun has some strategies, but if you want to say how many strategies there are, it depends on the person.

When dealing with ordinary Wei generals, he boasted that he had this ability, his brain was enough, and he felt that he could deal with it.

But against those Wei generals who were wise and resourceful, Zhao Yun had self-knowledge.

In particular, His Majesty once personally had a long conversation with him all night, focusing on the strategists and generals of the Wei State, among them, there were a few difficult ones to deal with, and they should not be able to fight with them without change.

Among them are Jia Xu's name and Sima Yi's name.

This is also the reason why Zhao Yun is so restrained.

At other times, he would have already commanded his troops to rush.

Don't say that you have a lot of cavalry in the Wei army, even if you have 100,000 cavalry, I, Changshan Zhao Zilong, am not afraid at all.

But now, Sima Yi is the commander of the Wei army this time, and he can't be allowed to be careless.

"Send scouts to Chang'an for help, Guanzhong grain and grass can support for two months, then wait for a month, and then make a decision!"

His Majesty is personally recruiting, Cao Zhen must not be an opponent, and his side cannot become a breakthrough because of this.

Tongguan was lost, and it was not a simple matter to regain it.

He can't be this sinner.

……

The Wei army attacked Huayin, but instead gave the Han army the opportunity to report that it was possible to go to Chang'an.

After all, with one more city to defend, the forces are bound to be dispersed.

In Chang'an City, the news of the eastern line of the Guandong Province soon spread to the Prime Minister's Mansion and Shangshu Taizhong.

Zhuge Liang and Fa Zheng and other left-behind ministers immediately convened a court meeting, and the Empress Dowager Wu and Empress Zhang Peilan listened to the government and exercised the power of supervising the country.

Of course......

They are just symbols.

What is being decided is the Prime Minister's Mansion and Shangshutai.

When the court discussion began, Zhuge Liang stepped forward to salute the Queen Mother behind the curtain, and immediately said:

"The war on the Eastern Front is critical, and the minister is willing to lead Chang'an 10,000 forbidden troops to support the war on the Eastern Front!"
