Chapter 409: Guan Wei Reinforcements
The news of the defeat of the defensive line was quickly sent to Yanjing. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoZhang Long and others, who stayed in Yanjing, gathered together to discuss countermeasures.
Li Jin and Yue Xi's martial arts were really beyond everyone's expectations, no one expected that Ugong Terulie would find such two generals with superior force, which caused everyone's estimation of the combat effectiveness of the Ugong Army to be significantly deviated, and these two people forcibly raised the combat effectiveness of the Ugong Army by a section!
Zhang Long frowned and said first: "Everyone, although Xu Block and Zong are brave, but their two fists are invincible to four hands, not to mention the other generals under the command of Yugong Zhaolie, Li Jin and Yue Xi alone are enough to tie them up, King Yan handed over the heavy responsibility of staying behind before the expedition, and a certain must not let Jizhou lose, therefore, a certain wants to go to the front line in person to help Xu block them against the Yugong army." ”
Hearing that Zhang Long was going to the battlefield in person, Tian Feng immediately stood up and said: "No! The duty of the general is to stay in Yanjing, not to fight on the battlefield, Yanjing is the foundation of our country, and there is absolutely no room for mistakes, so Feng does not recommend that the general be dispatched easily." However, as General Shicai said, the front line is tight, and the road on the side of King Yan is far away, even if he returns to the army to rescue, it is beyond the reach of the whip, so we should select a general among the existing left-behind personnel and lead the reinforcements to support the front line. ”
Zhong Xuan also spoke: "Yes, Yuan Hao's words are very true. The old man also thinks that General Zhang Long should not move lightly, and we should choose another person among the other generals to support General Xu Wei. ”
Zhang Long looked around at everyone, sighed and said, "General Shi Jia's martial arts, everyone is clear. He couldn't even block Li Jin's three moves, which shows Li Jin's bravery. What's more, there is also a Yue Xi who is not on par with him, plus the Xiahou brothers, Yan Liang, Wen Chou and others, all of whom are famous generals in the world, so the main general we go to support must not only have a mature strategy, but also bravely crown the three armies, right now, where to find such a general?"
Zhang Long's words. Let the dozens of civil and military officials present be silent at the same time, yes, Yuan Qi went out to conquer Yizhou and took away most of the civil and military generals in the court, and other famous generals were stationed in various places, and it was obviously too late for temporary recruitment, but in Yanjing City, who had the strategic thinking and martial courage that Zhang Long said at the same time? It seems that only Zhang Long himself can do it.
Seeing everyone's silence, Zhang Long stood up and said: "This matter is decided, I will lead the army to go out today, Yanjing, I will entrust it to you!"
"Wait! General Zhang Long is slow! The old man remembered someone. His prestige shocked Kyushu, and if he led his troops there, he would definitely be able to defeat Ugong Terulie!" Just when Zhang Long was about to close the coffin, the veteran Huangfu Chu suddenly stood up and said.
Huang Fuchu's words attracted everyone's attention. Everyone has thought about it carefully, among the generals who stayed in Yanjing. Only Zhang Long has this ability again, but I don't know who this person Huang Fu said at the beginning of the year is?
Seeing that everyone's eyes were all focused on him, Huang Fuchu said with a smile: "Have you forgotten? Half a month ago, a general came to Yanjing by fast boat, in order to thank King Yan for his grace of not killing, isn't this person enough to resist Li Jin and Yue Xi?"
It's Guan Wei! Hanshou Pavilion Hou Guan Wei! After Huang Fuchu's reminder, everyone immediately woke up, that's right, Guan Wei passed five passes and cut six generals, thousands of miles to ride alone, has long been famous all over the world, his martial arts are not under any of the five tiger generals, and his tactical literacy is not bad, the original flooding of the Seventh Army is the best proof, after Lu Meng crossed the river in white clothes, causing Guan Wei to carelessly lose Jingzhou, Guan Wei's arrogance has also converged a lot, become calmer, more calm, more calm, if he led the troops to support Xu Block, it must be foolproof。
Du Yi said with some hesitation: "Old General Huangfu, Guan Wei is naturally no problem, but the key thing is, is he willing to use it for me and lead his troops to resist Ugong Zhaolie?"
Huangfu Chu smiled and said: "Guan Wei has come to see love and righteousness, righteousness is thin and cloudy, he came this time to thank King Yan for his grace of not killing, this is a good opportunity to repay his kindness, how could he not agree?" Besides, he is not a fool, now the war in Yizhou is critical, Taishan is in a worrying situation, Guan Wei is worried about Taishan, but he is suffering from not being able to return to Yizhou, and he can't help Taishan on the frontal battlefield, if he can relieve the danger of Jizhou this time, maybe he can also bring some benefits to Taishan from the side, so that King Yan can make concessions, the best of both worlds, why is he not happy?"
Zhang Long was overjoyed when he heard this: "In this way, later the old general Huangfu and the old man Zhong will go with a certain person to meet Guan Wei and ask him what he thinks about this matter, if he agrees, he will lead the troops to the expedition this time!"
Facts have proved that Huang Fuchu's inference is very accurate. After Guan Wei saw Zhang Long and the three of them and learned their intentions, he agreed after a little consideration. As Huang Fuchu said, Guan Wei is a person who values love and righteousness, and he was defeated in Jingzhou, and it was impossible to escape death, but Sun Ce did not kill him, because this was Yuan Qi's order, so Sun Ce let him go. Sun Ce did what Yuan Qi instructed him to do, and he didn't embarrass Guan Wei, but what kind of person is Guan Wei? Is he the one who knows how to repay his kindness? In Guan Wei's heart, love and righteousness are greater than heaven, and he must personally thank Yuan Qi for his grace of not killing, so that he can be a frank man in the future, and only by doing so can he return to Taishan's camp without guilt in the future and become an enemy of Yuan Qi. If he didn't thank Yuan Qi and quietly returned to Taishan, then in Guan Wei's heart, this was a move of revenge, which Guan Wei despised.
From another point of view, although Guan Wei comes and goes freely now, in his heart, he has positioned himself as a prisoner of Yuan Qi, without Yuan Qi's consent, he will not easily leave Yanjing, this is the dignity that a military general should have, and it is the dignity of Guan Wei. That's why he didn't go back to Taishan's side to help Taishan resist Yuanqi's attack. Just like Zhang Wu at the beginning, Guan Wei is now very contradictory, he doesn't know what choice he has between Taishan and Yuan Qi, one is his eldest brother who has shared honor and disgrace for 20 years, but he has repeatedly disappointed himself, especially the practice of abandoning Pang Tong and Zhang Wu successively, which makes Guan Wei resentful; 。
Guan Wei is confused about his future path, but he is very clear about his current choice. Now the war in Yizhou is critical, Chengdu may be captured at any time, Mount Tai may be in a different place at any time, if you can at such a moment, the crisis in Jizhou can be lifted, at least like Zhang Wu, ask Yuan Qi to spare Mount Tai again, in that case, it can be regarded as Guan Wei's commitment to Mount Tai, and when he makes a choice in the future, he will be worthy of his heart, therefore, Guan Wei agreed to Zhang Long's request, with his subordinates Liao Hua and Zhou Cang's two generals, as well as the 50,000 troops that Zhang Long allocated to him, and rushed to the Jizhou battlefield at an accelerated speed.
On the way to the march, Guan Wei's emotion never stopped, on the one hand, he was lamenting Zhang Long's trust in him, Guan Wei did not show his attitude to serve Yuan Qi, but Zhang Long still took out 50,000 troops and handed them over to Guan Wei, not at all worried that Guan Wei would take the 50,000 army to fight back, to make trouble for Yuan Qi on the Yizhou battlefield, this trust, let Guan Wei feel the warmth that he had not seen for a long time, such warmth, he used to feel it on Mount Tai's body, but since occupying Jingzhou, he can no longer feel such warmth from Mount Tai。
On the other hand, Guan Wei sighed at the elite degree of the enemy army and the sophistication of the equipment, as early as ten years ago, on the fat city wall, Guan Wei witnessed Gan Jing leading the Qilin Army to come and go freely in the rebel array, and once sighed that it is every general's lifelong wish to be able to command such an elite battle. Now, he finally got his wish and was able to personally command such an elite army, although this 50,000 army could not be compared to the Qilin army commanded by Gan Jing, but compared to the Jingzhou army under the command of Guan Wei in the past, they were more than two levels higher in terms of fighting spirit and soldier quality, and Guan Wei felt sincerely proud and proud to be able to fight side by side with them.
At the same time that Guan Wei led the army to hurry, Ugong Terulie was also speeding up the speed of the march, he wanted to expand the results of the battle before the arrival of reinforcements from Yanjing, and it was best to defeat the enemy troops on the other two roads, and open all the roads from Wei County to the hinterland of Jizhou, in that case, there would be this great benefit to the deployment of troops and the deployment of troops behind him.
After losing the left flank defense line, Xu Shu also made corresponding adjustments, under the suggestion of Li Ru, he and Xu Shu contracted their forces, retreated for thirty miles, and relied on the mountains behind them to form two large formations that guarded each other and integrated attack and defense, preparing to fight to the death with the Yugong army here. The advantage of Xu blocking this is that you can continue to block most of the roads leading to the hinterland of Jizhou, and keep the Yugong army out of Jizhou, but there is also a huge risk in doing so, because the back of the mountain, the Yan army has lost its way to retreat, once it can't hold on, they will fall into death, and there is no longer the possibility of retreating, and now the whole army has more than 100,000 soldiers and soldiers, and they are ready to put it to death and survive.
When Ugong Zhaolie rushed to the front line of Wei County and watched Xu Fang's formation from a distance, he frowned and whispered: "This is a hard bone, it's not easy to gnaw." ”
Ugong Zhaolie's words aroused the desire of the two tiger generals around him to fight, Yan Liang and Wen Chou took a step forward at the same time, and said loudly: "Please agree to the king, a certain two people are willing to lead the army and horses to step into the company camp, and cut off Xu Xuan's head and send it to the king!" Li Jin and Yue Xi, the two generals who have recently defected to Ugong Zhaolie, have already made meritorious contributions, Yan Liang and Wen Chou saw it in their eyes, how could they not be anxious in their hearts?
