Summoning the Peak of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1197 Kansai Battle Situation
Chapter 1195: Battle in Kansai
Yang Guang led an army of [-] to attack Hangu Pass. It took more than a month and exhausted various methods. In the end, nearly [-] troops were killed or injured, but Hangu Pass still could not be shaken.

However, the battle between Yang Jian and Li Cunxiao at Hangu Pass shocked the world.

In that battle, after three hundred rounds, Li Cunxiao won with a slight advantage.

After the war, the world was shocked. No one expected that there would be another peerless general in the top five ranks of the generals list so soon.

After withdrawing from Hangu Pass, although Yang Guang's army strength dropped to [-], it was still much more than Li Shimin's.

The total strength of the Chang'an Fourth Battalion was no more than [-]. After Li Shimin subdued the generals of the Liang faction, he recovered the scattered troops in Chang'an City, and the total strength only just reached [-].

Although Yang Guang had twice as many soldiers as Li Shimin, as the capital of Han Dynasty, Chang'an City's defense power was naturally not comparable to that of ordinary cities, and although there were still constant disturbances in the city, it was not possible for Yang Guang to attack in his eagerness. of.

While guarding Chang'an, Li Shimin sent envoys to win over the guards from all over the country.

As the news spread that Yang Jian was the murderer of Dong Zhuo, soon nearly [-]% of the officials in Kansai were on Li Shimin's side, and most of the Kansai land was directly decided by Li Shimin.

Moral support from many, scant support.

The Liang faction and Tang faction all defected to Li Shimin, and even many Sui faction generals also defected to Li Shimin, but Li Shimin still underestimated Yang Jian's prestige in the Sui faction.

Most Sui generals still chose to assist Yang Guang, including: Wu Yunzhao, Shi Wansui, Gao Ying, He Ruomi, Yang Jian and other generals.

Yang Jian is still very popular among the Sui clan. In the hearts of many people, their lord is Yang Jian and not Dong Zhuo, so even if they know that Yang Jian murdered Dong Zhuo, they still have no intention of betraying Yang Jian.

Yang Jian didn't think much about Yang Jian's murder of Dong Zhuo, after all he hated Dong Zhuo.

Yang Jian's sense of Yang Jian was not good at first, although he reversed a lot later, he did not give up on Yang Jian. However, during the conquest of Hangu Pass this time, Yang Jian formed a close personal relationship with Yang Guang.

Now that Yang Guang had just passed away his father, he was at the lowest point in his life, so even if Yang Jian wanted to leave, he would not leave Yang Guang at this time.

There are also many Sui generals who turned to Li Shimin, such as Zuo Tiancheng, the guard of Chencang.

Zuo Tiancheng's rebellion not only added [-] troops to Li Shimin, but also allowed Li Xiaogong from Hanzhong to lead [-] troops into Guanzhong, which also slightly reduced the pressure on Li Shimin's troops.

Yu Wenshu is an old man, he saw that Yang Jian was dead, so he decisively led Yuwen's family to join Li Shimin.

In this way, Li Shimin had [-] troops in Chang'an, Li Keyong in Lantian had [-] troops, Chencang Zuo Tiancheng had [-] troops, Li Xiaogong's Hanzhong army had [-] troops, and the troops under his direct control had reached [-].

Yang Guang had [-] troops outside Chang'an, and Wu Yunzhao [-] troops, making a total of [-] troops;

From the current point of view, although Li Shimin's troops are smaller than Yang Guang's, due to the occupation of Chang'an, morality, and the support of the cities in Guanzhong, if Yang Guang cannot capture Chang'an in a short time, he will surely be defeated sooner or later.

After Yang Guang attacked Chang'an for several days without success, he also realized that it would be difficult for him to capture Chang'an in a short time based on the strength in his hands alone, and if he wanted to win the final victory, he had to attack in places other than Chang'an. It takes strength.

Most of the cities in Guanzhong have sworn allegiance to Li Shimin. Although it is too late for Yang Guang to win over Li Shimin at this time, as long as he promises huge benefits, he can always get some support.

It is true that many places in Guanzhong surrendered to Yang Guang, but this help was almost insignificant to him, so Yang Guang's last saviors were Yang Su, Hou Yi, and Lu Bu in Liangzhou.

After Yang Jian became the lord of Kansai, he appointed Yang Su as the governor of Liangzhou, and together with Hou Yi and Lu Bu, he went to command the [-] army in Liangzhou, and was also responsible for lending the way to Yuan Meng.

After Yang Su arrived in Liangzhou, with the help of Hou Yi and Lu Bu's prestige, he quickly sat on the position of governor, but Liangzhou was Dong Zhuo's hometown after all.

After the news from Li Shimin came, most of Liangzhou fell into Li Shimin's arms, and even Hou Yi and Lu Bu had strange thoughts.

Yang Su knew very well that if both Hou Yi and Lu Bu took refuge in Li Shimin, then Liangzhou would be completely owned by Li Shimin, and the Sui faction would have no chance of winning.

So Yang Su spread rumors in Liangzhou and Guanzhong, saying that Hou Yi and Lu Bu also participated in the murder of Dong Zhuo. Even if Li Shimin could tolerate it for the time being, he would settle the score sooner or later.

Hou Yi and Lu Bu were planning to wait and see, but when the rumors became more and more intense, they stopped thinking of taking refuge in Li Shimin. After all, Hou Yi shot the arrow that Dong Zhuo fell from the horse, and Lu Bu also shot the arrow at that time. Also suspicious.

Yang Su easily tied Houyi and Lu Bu to Yang Guang's chariot through the simplest means of rumors, and then led the troops out to suppress the rebellion in Liangzhou.

Although Yang Su won many battles, but there were too many people who turned to Li Shimin, and the conquest could not be completed in a short period of time. In addition, he received a letter of help from Yang Guang, so he took Hou Yi and Lu Bu to lead an army of [-] to support him. Yang Guang.

Yang Su was going to capture Chang'an first, and after occupying Guanzhong, he would go back and deal with Liangzhou.

Little did they know that as soon as Yang Su led the army away, Ma Teng and Han Sui rose up on the back.

When Dong Zhuo was there, they didn't dare to take a breath. Now that Dong Zhuo is dead and the Liang army is fighting among themselves, they can't stand it any longer, and they are all ready to raise troops to seize some of the benefits.

Ma Teng and Han Sui have lived in Liangzhou for a long time, and were suppressed by the Liang army, they couldn't vote, so the strength of the two is not strong, but they can still gather [-] troops by throwing pots and pieces of iron, but in order to prevent Yang Su from being stimulated When they came back, their soldiers all pointed to the counties and counties that fell to Li Shimin.

After the two families agreed to send troops together, Ma Teng successively occupied 8 counties in Zhangye County and 13 counties in Wuwei County;
And Han Sui also successively occupied 9 counties in Jiuquan County, 6 counties in Dunhuang County, and Xihai County established by Dong Zhuo, Zhangye and Juyan.

Seeing that Ma Teng and Han Sui were not attacking his own territory, Yang Su didn't pay too much attention to it. After all, the most urgent task is to deal with Li Shimin first.

When Li Shimin learned that Yang Su was leading the army and wanted to help Yang Guang, he was shocked, and quickly asked Li Ru and Du Ruhui for advice.

Although Li Shimin's troops were not as strong as Yang Guang's, he was in an absolute advantage in the Guanzhong battle. But once Yang Su's [-] troops arrived in Guanzhong, if the gap between the enemy and our troops was too large, the situation would probably be reversed.

After discussing with Li Ru and Du Ruhui for a long time, Li Shimin finally decided to send Li Ru as a messenger to ask Dong Zhuo's eldest son-in-law Yelu Abaoji for help.

　As soon as it arrives, please recommend a ticket, ask for a monthly ticket...
