Volume 1 Chapter 437 - Helping Hands (II)
Night
The rain stopped, and the wind blowing from the river bank at this moment was still a little hot, but it was generally cool, looking around the river embankment, the sky was full of stars, and the dark camp on the ground stood up, stretching for dozens of miles, and a variety of different qi engines were permeating it, with a slightly mysterious feeling.
Cao Jun's main tent was brightly lit
There was silence under the Shuai Qi, two arrows away from the main tent, three tents were set up, flags were erected to respond to each other, and the soldiers all pressed their long swords and stood with their heads held high.
And the generals came in together, Cao Cao saw it, waved his hand, motioned for them to be exempt, and said, "Sit down."
There was silence in the tent for a while, and the soldiers moved the situation map over, lit the lamp, and all silently withdrew, and at the moment those who had seats were all sitting, and those who did not have seats stood in a row.
At this time, almost all the core people on the ground were present at this emergency military intelligence meeting, and the governor paced and stared at the map, his brow furrowed, looking out of the tent twilight, his face gloomy.
"With only this 15,000 water army, it can't shake Luoyang, Dong Zhuotun has 100,000 soldiers in Tiger Prison, and 30,000 in Chang'an, holding 170,000 in his own hands...... Unless Ye Qing personally led 10,000 red-armored soldiers to risk going upstream...... Are you sure he didn't smuggle out?"
Seeing the hidden worry of the Governor, the head of the sorcerer secretly sighed, he was an old subordinate of the Governor, and the Governor had always been graceful, well-behaved, and skilled.
It's just that when he got to the lower soil, he was repeatedly frustrated, and Cao Cao's body was still young, but the head of the sorcerer saw that he had a few more gray hairs.
At this time, the hidden worry has never been seen before, but it is not good to say much at this time, just bowed slightly, and said simply: "The four-clawed red Jiao is still in the middle camp." ”
"For this sake, it's basically impossible to hide this dragon, of course, if we can hide it, then we don't have to fight - even in the Lower Earth World, this is at least an immortal karma. ”
Many people on the ground breathed a sigh of relief: "That's it, Ye Qing also knows that the coalition forces are deeply divided, and as soon as he leaves, he will lose the suppression of all parties, in case he is defeated in the Luoyang area again...... No, even as long as he is trapped, what awaits him is to fall apart. ”
"So it's just a trick for Ye Qing?"
"Most likely, it has the intention of blocking the main road after the interception. ”
Someone laughed when he heard this: "This Ye Qing has always had a big appetite, even if the Tiger Prison Pass City has not been broken, even if it breaks 100,000 trapped beasts of the Xiliang Army, and there are 200,000 of us and Yu Fan, Ye Qing thinks he can eat it?"
The governor quietly listened to these people's analysis, and was still noncommittal, and suddenly looked back: "Can you contact Dong Zhuo to kill this Guan Yu?"
"That side has lost three high-end combat power, and the new commander of the emergency transfer has vetoed the re-diffusion force and is inclined to concentrate firepower to eliminate Ye Qing...... Moreover, this Guan Yu has broken through the Dao ban after killing Yuan Shao and defeating the real person, and his strength is not trivial. ”
Hearing this, everyone was silent for a while, and everyone knew the horror of the military generals who had entered the Dao.
At this time, the escalation of the earth world realm is getting faster and faster, and if this continues, I am afraid that the advantages of the people on the earth will gradually fade.
The "adult" who had been silent in thought, but it was Fang Shi who suddenly raised his head and said, "The lower official has something to say, I don't know if I should say it or not?"
"What are you talking about" The governor was stunned, this Fang Shi is the head of a big clan on the ground, and he is also a county guard in Xiatu, and his words have weight: "What do you think of the situation?"
"My lord, I have no opinion on the pattern of Luoyang, but there is a situation in the back - Gongsun Zhan is a little wrong"
"What?" everyone was stunned.
"Gongsun Zhan started from the small officials in the county, made many contributions, and served as a Zhonglang general all the way, with a tough attitude towards Beiyi, brave in battle, and powerful in the frontier. ”
"Such a general, even if it is delayed for a while, how can it not be now, we can laugh at it before, but now that I think about it, even if it is a mediocre general, it will be here, how can I not go to Luo ......"
When Fang Shi said this, he stopped, but he was a little sensitive, after hearing this, after thinking about it carefully, a chill had already appeared behind his back, and cold sweat suddenly oozed out.
The governor coughed lightly and asked gloomily, "You mean that Gongsun Chan may have moved?"
"Yes" Fang Shi heard a hint of anger, but he still responded.
The Governor was already furious and was about to attack: "Don't slow down the hearts of our army......"
Before the words fell, a magician hurriedly entered, and opened his mouth to report: "Report, Daofa communication, Gongsun Chan has invaded Jizhou-"
As soon as these words fell, the audience fell silent, and the governor was shocked: "What time?"
"Just yesterday, it was rumored that two cities had been captured......"
Suddenly, everyone changed color: "Damn, this Gongsun Chan is slow, it is clearly premeditated"
"We were all surrounded by this person, and we fell for Ye Qing's plan to hide the sky and cross the sea."
"What he wants to take is not Luoyang, but Hebei is to take Hebei and Hebei, and contact Qing and You, and we are in the encirclement of his general trend."
The governor also thought of this terrible scene, and suddenly a chill hit his heart, and even cold sweat oozed from his forehead, seeing the governor's situation, and the fact that everyone was panicked or chilling, Fang Shi sighed in his heart.
These are all brilliant and majestic in the earthly world, and they don't want to be all the princes of the Taiping world, and they panic when they encounter the troubled times
Can such a group be relied upon?
However, the governor finally had some real ability, and at this time he fixed his mind and scolded: "What is the panic Yuan Shao Jizhou headquarters has 50,000, and the news of his death will not be transmitted to Jizhou for a while, even if it arrives, a group of strategists and ministers inside will be blocked, where is this Gongsun Chan can capture for a while, this is just another trick for Ye Qing...... What he wants must be Luoyang. ”
Whether it was right or wrong, the voice fell, and everyone calmed down.
The governor was about to speak, when he suddenly heard some voice outside the tent, and was gloomy about to reprimand: "Didn't you tell me not to disturb......
Before the words fell, a familiar voice entered the ear: "Your Excellency the Governor is here?"
"Yu Fan???" The governor was stunned, he was an old bureaucrat, and his familiarity with politics was almost instinctive, and he immediately woke up: "In the face of this situation, the Yu family can't sit still."
Thinking of this, the governor exhaled, and his heart was immediately relieved, and he heard a report from a guard that Yu Fan had only secretly entered the camp with a few relatives to ask for a meeting.
Everyone was a little surprised by this person's boldness, and couldn't help but look at the governor of Lushang, only to see that the governor paused and said: "Please come in—no, I will personally go out to greet him."
As he spoke, he greeted him, and then a gust of night wind swept over, and the governor sweated slightly with a chill, but he ignored it, only to see a general, who stepped forward and saluted: "Yu Fan has seen the governor"
"Ha Luha, it's good to come, please come in," said the Governor, smiling all over his face, and slowly stretched out his hand.
Yu Fan bowed behind him and pulled with him, this is the co-hand.
When everyone saw it, they all looked at each other and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
These two sworn enemies in history, at this time, for the sake of common enemies, in the face of Ye Qing's strength, decided to move forward hand in hand.
Liu Jun's camp
The same armoured soldiers were numerous, heavily guarded.
"Fast entry, there are only three ways to choose. ”
The lights in the tent were bright, and he couldn't sleep all night, almost all the core civil and military affairs attended the meeting to discuss, and the comprehensive plan was presented, Guo Jia held a wooden stick and pointed to the huge sand table in the center.
The three-dimensional terrain is exquisite and accurate, which is based on detailed surveying and mapping, thousands of caravan secret mapping, mountain village visits, and hydrological surveys, witnessing the all-round preparation of Shangluo in the past two years.
Guo Jia once presided over secret affairs for a period of time, and still admires this incredible and huge plan, and now what is displayed in front of everyone is accurate to every path, valley, bend, and even the dyeing of the verdant forest and the pale golden Yellow River are clearly layered.
The sand table has long been used in the army, but it has never been so refined, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Dian Wei and other local generals all stared, secretly praising the foresight of the lord, only Xu You and other ministers were mentally prepared...... There are exceptions, such as the newly joined Chen Deng, who even saw this method for the first time.
At this time, they all pricked up their ears to listen to the explanation.
"The first one, the mountain road - the secret road near the mountains on the left, this point has been detected, it is a pity, there is a steep cliff road for the mountain people to climb and collect medicine, but it is absolutely impossible to send the army through quickly, and it is even more impossible for horses, at most only 3,000 ...... in three days"
Qianqian glanced at the mountain road, and without any movement, a verdant glow lit up, highlighting this secret road, and even miniaturized the ants in the mountains like a moving army, causing a breath...... It's amazing, and it doesn't get any more intuitive than that
"Of course, the first batch has been sent over three days ago, all of them are archers, this is the first flank army"
Guo Jia said, smiling mysteriously: "After determining that the remaining defenders of Jiangdong and Yanzhou have no attack power, a group of 5,000 Danyang soldiers has sent troops from Xuzhou, led by General Zang Ba, and arrived in Xuchang yesterday, and this morning took the Qin-Zheng Ancient Road to attack Xinzheng directly, threatening the south side of Luoyang, in order to contain Dong Zhuo's further reinforcements......"
"However, this road is not smooth, the military strength is limited, and it is only the worst plan after the siege is unfavorable, not the point of breaking through quickly. ”
"The second, the waterway - tracing the Yellow River, turning to Luoshui, you just sent General Guan back, presumably it is known that the ship carries 15,000 elite foot riders, and the goal is to bypass Gongxian County, which is ninety miles away from the Tiger Prison Pass...... However, 10,000 foot archers and 5,000 light cavalry can only capture Gongxian City, and they have no ability to take the Tiger Prison Pass behind their backs, and time can't wait for this army to outflank them, so they can only be used to intercept the escape of the 100,000 troops in the Tiger Prison Pass. ”
Cao Bai waved his hand slightly, this Yellow River waterway is the itinerary of Guan Yu's navy, just out of more than 20 miles, and it is far from the target landing point.
Ye Qing glanced at everyone's understanding, nodded and signaled that it was okay, and Guo Jia pointed the wooden stick on the tiger prison: "The third, the pass road - we still have to break through here to make hundreds of thousands of troops enter the pass and fight with Dong Zhuo under Luoyang City"
"It is difficult to cross the mountain, all side should only be sideways, and the only way to really break through the pass is to attack, which is not only a military means, but also has a huge symbolic meaning. ”
"Only when the lord conquers the Tiger Prison Pass and enters the teacher in a dignified manner, can the people of the world recognize the lord as sitting in Luoyang and become the heir of the Han Dynasty - even if he is only crowned now"
"This can only be done by extraordinary means, Jia is not familiar with the effect of spells, and how to dismantle this problem step by step can only be handed over to the lord and the two ladies......
When Ye Qing heard this, he smiled: "That's right, it's Guo Jiana, and there is Mrs. Gan below to explain the magic for everyone."
All kinds of secret words permeated the tent, but they were isolated by spells, and they couldn't penetrate a bit.
During the secret discussions of all parties, the sky soon dawned.
The morning sun rose from the east, the dew hung on the leaves of the grass and trees, the drums of war were beaten, the barracks were opened, and the infantry and archery horses poured out layer by layer like a tide, spreading regularly on the field, and on the fifth day of the soldiers' siege, the curtain of the great battle was opened one day earlier, which surprised many people on both sides of the enemy.
Many people on the ground thought about it and felt that it was reasonable—this was in line with Ye Qing's style.
