Five Dynasties River Mountains Fengyue

Chapter 78 Breaking the Wuwei City

Chapter 78 Breaking the Wuwei City
On the first day of the seventh lunar month, there was morning fog on the peaks of the Qinling Mountains, and the white peaks were looming.

Looking at the vast white fog, Shi Congyun felt homesick. When he started, he realized that the first thing he thought of was Zhao Shijian's beautiful face. He wondered if his lower body was causing trouble.

It's no wonder that he has only been in this world for more than a year, and the only people who get along with him day and night are little girls. After all, he is not the previous Shi Congyun, and other people don't have such deep feelings.

Before he recovered, Xiang Xun came over on horseback and said happily, "Brother Yun, the guys who attack the city are all ready!"

Xiang Xun brought not only a thousand cavalry, but also more than a dozen skilled craftsmen from Fengxiang Mansion, who were responsible for building siege equipment.

The Qinling Mountains are surrounded by trees, and it is very easy to cut wood and obtain materials.

Shi Congyun actually didn't want to attack the city, but the soldiers and Xiang Xun were very enthusiastic. It was a great achievement to win Wuwei!

The commanders and Xiang Xun, Wang Zhong, Shao Ji, Dong Zunhui, Luo Yanhuan and others came to ask for orders one after another, and Shi Congyun could not refute the opinions of the people, so he had to order the construction of siege equipment to prepare to attack Wuwei City.

He also observed for a long time, Wuwei City is much worse than Taiyuan, it should not be so difficult to fight.

"Okay, let's fight. From tomorrow, Uncle Xiang, you will command the siege." Shi Congyun said that he had no experience in commanding siege warfare, so he simply handed it over to Xiang Xunlai, and he learned on the side.

Xiang Xun didn't refuse, he nodded and smiled: "Okay, then let's come. Brother Yun is full of credits now, and he has not made any achievements since he set off on the expedition."

"With Uncle's ability, the credit will come sooner or later."

"You kid can really talk, but it makes you happy." Xiang Xun laughed, "Wuwei City came with you, remember this, and thank you Brother Yun."

"Uncle, you're very polite. How can I thank you?" Shi Congyun smiled and waved his hand: "Something will come to you in the future."

Xiang Xun shook his head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "You, you don't look like your father at all, it looks like a sloppy skin."

Shi Congyun didn't refute, just said: "It's always better than a stunned young man like my father."

Xiang Xun didn't quite understand it, so he stopped wrangling with him, and went down to lead people to arrange siege equipment, ready to attack the city tomorrow.

That night, Shi Congyun convened many commanders and confidants of generals to discuss matters in the big tent, mainly to discuss the arrangements for the next day's siege.

Everyone has their own opinions. Some people say that they want to dig the Jialing River to flood the city, some people advocate digging holes in the ground, and some people think that directly attacking the city is just, and the various opinions are not uniform.

Shi Congyun heard it loudly, because he didn't know what to do, and it was the first time that he led an army to attack the city alone.

However, Shi Congyun is very clear about his identity. He is a decision maker, not a strategist or a military advisor. In this case, don't overwhelm the guest, and let everyone express their strengths when they come up with ideas.

All he has to do is arrange the people, motivate everyone, and make the final decision.

Everyone had different opinions, but he finally looked at Xiang Xun.

Xiang Xun said: "Brother Yun has already beaten the Shu army to the point where the morale of the Shu army is low, and he has long since had no intention of fighting with us. Just fight it directly, without any complicated means, Wuwei is not Jinyang."

Shi Congyun thought for a while after listening to it, "Siege the city tomorrow, attack directly, and try to rush up once."

"No!" He made a decision, and everyone stopped arguing and agreed, with war intent in their eyes.

After that, everyone went back to gather soldiers and prepare to attack the city.

That night, Shi Congyun slept soundly and was awakened by a loud noise. He quickly got up and walked out of the tent. The fire was blazing outside, and the noise came from a distance.

Could it be that the Shu army has attacked the camp!

Shi Congyun subconsciously wanted to look for the sword, but he thought that it was impossible. There were not many Shu troops in Wuwei City, and he arranged for people to patrol the camp.

After a while, someone hurried in to report: "The Shu army has run away! The Shu army broke through Wuwei City and fled south at night, and the Shao Jian army is leading people to chase."

Only then did Shi Congyun understand that the Shu army in Wuwei City escaped!

He quickly ordered: "Go and tell Deputy Envoy Xiang and ask him to bring cavalry to pursue him.

Come and tell Wang Zhong, let him release all the scouts as soon as possible! "

The messenger nodded and hurried away.

There were more and more flames in the distance. It was the torches lit by the soldiers of the Zhou army. Shi Congyun was no longer sleepy, so he let someone come in to help put on his armor, and then asked Dong Zunhui to gather the cavalry and go with him to the city to see the situation.

After dawn the next morning, Shi Congyun finally figured out the situation based on reports from all parties.

It may be that they put on a stance of attacking the city to frighten the Shu army.

Li Yangui, the general of Wuwei City, led dozens of people, and fled from the south of the city to Fengzhou in the south at night. They were probably afraid that the movement would be too loud to attract the attention of the Zhou army, and they abandoned all the defenders.

As a result, it was discovered by the scouts stationed by Zhou Jun at various intersections around Wuwei.

Immediately afterward, Shao Ji led his cavalry to pursue and killed and captured 27 generals and schools of the Shu army, but more people were able to flee south.

Li Yangui and other generals fled, leaving only [-] soldiers without a leader in the city.

At noon that day, the soldiers in Wuwei City sent representatives to fall into the city and went to Shi Congyun to ask for forgiveness, expressing their willingness to submit and hoping to give them a way out.

Shi Congyun agreed, and after that, Wuwei City opened the door and surrendered, preparing siege equipment for a few days, and discussing the siege plan for a night was completely useless.

Standing in front of Wuwei City and accepting the kneeling worship of more than 2000 Shu troops, Shi Congyun himself felt a little dreamy, and Wuwei City was just won!
At this time, it was only the beginning of July, and it had only been more than a month since he led the troops out of the Sanguan. All the way to the south, he pulled eight Shu army camps in a row, and won the Wuwei City. Thinking about it, it was like a dream.

"Find someone who can talk, and hurry up and report victory to Commander Wang!"

Chencang Road has been an important road since ancient times.

When Chu and Han were fighting for hegemony, Liu Bang sent Han Xin from Hanzhong in Shu to go north on Chencang Road to seize Guanzhong in one fell swoop, laying the foundation for capturing the world.

Now that the army of the Zhou Dynasty is heading south, the most ideal is still Chencang Road, and it is better to go one of them. From a geographical point of view, Chencang can cut off the connection between Qinzhou and Shu in the rear. As long as Fengzhou falls, Qinzhou in the rear will be cut off The other will lose contact with the Shu Kingdom, and it will be difficult to support it alone.

Therefore, it seems that the land in Guanzhong is captured, but it is actually in Fengzhou. As long as the throat of Fengzhou is out of control, the various places in the rear cannot protect themselves, and the only way to go is to surrender Dazhou.

Wang Jing stood on the top of the mountain, the peaks of the Qinling Mountains in the distance rose and fell one after another, and the plants were lush and lush. The ancient stone paved road under his feet was covered with moss, and the dark green moss could easily cause people to slip on it. smoothed.

When Shi Congyun first proposed to take Chencangdao, take Wuwei and directly capture Fengzhou, Wang Jing took a high look at this young junior.

After that, letting Shi Congyun play the front line was of a tentative nature. Wang Jing had no idea how powerful the imperial imperial army was, and he would die in battle. At his age, he only hoped for stability and did not want to worry about trouble.

Shi Yanchao had heard that he was very famous in the Zhou Dynasty army. He thought that the dragon gave birth to the dragon, the phoenix gave birth to the phoenix, and the mouse was born to dig holes, but judging from the continuous battle reports from the front, this young junior is not only brave So simple.

After the generals around him circulated the battle report, they said with emotion: "It seems that the elites of the Great Zhou Dynasty still need to see the forbidden army."

Many of them were dissatisfied at first. As the saying goes, peers are enemies, and the army in the township also has the idea of ​​competing with the banned army.

I just didn't expect that the successive battle reports in front would make the Fengxiang Mansion's army very hard, so I had a preface with emotion.

Some people were dissatisfied and said sourly: "Maybe they lied about the military situation."

He was immediately glanced at by Wang Jing, Wang Jing looked stern, and said slowly: "Stop talking about this in the future, it is possible that the thousands of Shu prisoners sent back to the front are also fake, and they have spoken too much, otherwise they will cause trouble. ."

The speaking general's face was ugly, and he didn't say anything more.

"Now we haven't even reached the Yellow Flower Valley yet. They have already broken eight Shu military camps and won Wuwei City. What else do you have to say?"

 I have passed the trial post, I will be hired tomorrow, and I will go to work in the county the day after tomorrow. There are many things that may cause unstable updates in these two days. Please understand.

  After two or three days of work, the stable update will be resumed immediately.
