Kingdom of Heaven and Han

Chapter 567

Shou'an is close to Luoyang, the planning is changeable, and the ownership is impermanent.Roughly speaking, it is the Yiyang County of later generations, located in the Luohe Valley, sixty or seventy miles away from Luoyang City.Due to the complex terrain from Changshui County to Lushi County in the west of the valley, there are no major roads, and the terrain of the counties in this area is relatively closed.

Dong Xian's army was stationed in Shou'an and never attacked Luoyang, and there was no major war in this area.In order to guard against Dong Xian, Meng Bangxiong's [-] troops were stationed [-] miles west of Luoyang City, and the two armies watched from afar.

In Shou'an County, Dong Xian and Zhang Qi sat opposite each other, drinking wine with a plate of mutton.

Zhang Qi said: "Two days ago Yang Wei surrendered to the puppet Qi, killed Zhai Zhenfu, and because of Meng Bangxiong's big victory, we can hardly stay in this area. As a result, Wang Jieshuai sent troops the next day and took Longmen. Can Meng Bangxiong hold Luoyang without Longmen? Who would believe it!"

Dong Xiandao: "This time is really unexpected! The tens of thousands of troops in Dengzhou stayed motionless in Ruzhou for two months, and they thought they would not participate in the battle. Who would have thought that Wang Jieshuai would send troops immediately after Zhai Taiwei died. It seems that Wang Jie This handsome man really values ​​Taiwei Zhai, not because he is avoiding battle in Ruzhou."

Zhang Qi said with a smile: "With a 1 army facing [-] men from Meng Bangxiong in Luoyang, how could it be possible to avoid the battle!"

Dong Xian sighed: "Brother, you are thinking wrong. Luoyang is not difficult to attack, but whether it can be defended after it is captured. Here connects the Central Plains and Shaanxi, how can the puppet Qi and Jin armies give up? Next, Shaanxi or It is Hebei, and reinforcements are bound to come. After defeating the reinforcements and defending Luoyang, Wang Jieshuai dares to say victory."

Zhang Qi said: "I see that Wang Jieshuai's arrangement has already prepared for the reinforcements in Shaanxi. The Lu family has [-] troops stationed, and the food and grass are sufficient. Can't protect the west of Luoyang from danger? If the Jin army comes to help, Lu will send troops to cut off the Jin army." The army retreats, and the Xin'an natural danger ahead, isn't it a catch in a urn?"

Dong Xiandao: "Since Jingkang, has there been a battle to annihilate [-] gold troops in this dynasty? In Huangtiandang, Han Taiwei blocked the Wushu army for many days, and finally he escaped smoothly. If [-] to [-] gold troops come from Shaanxi, Even if Wang Jieshuai blocked them in Mianchi, so what?"

Zhang Qi nodded: "What the Taiwei said is true. The so-called Jurchen is less than [-] and invincible. The battle has been fought for several years. There are many famous generals in this dynasty. Who can wipe out [-] gold troops? Even if they have the upper hand for a while, In the end, it was also escaped by the Jin army, and it could not hurt its roots."

Speaking of this matter, both Dong Xian and Zhang Qi were discouraged.Even if the command is proper, so what if you gain the upper hand for a while?In the end, Jin Jun left calmly.After a rest, they went south again, and no one could do anything about them.

After fighting for several years, the biggest victory was in Jingmen.Wang Xiaolie blocked Ba Lisu and Wanyan Guoying, although they didn't wipe them out, they dealt heavy damage.No matter how fierce the other battles were, the actual annihilation of the Jin army was rare.

Just then, a soldier came in.Chashou said: "Taiwei, just got the news that the Dengzhou army has broken through Luoyang! Meng Bangxiong and Yang Wei have both been captured!"

"So fast!" Dong Xian stood up after hearing this.After turning around the house twice, he turned and looked at the soldiers: "Confirm the news? Dengzhou soldiers broke through Luoyang?"

The soldier said: "It's not just a person who said that, it should be right."

Zhang Qi said: "Taiwei, if the Dengzhou soldiers break through Luoyang, the enemy army on the opposite side of us will be attacked from both sides!"

Dong Xian nodded.Said: "At this time, I should send troops to march towards Luoyang. It would be a great achievement to repel the enemy army on the opposite side. However, the Dengzhou army came so fast, it always makes people feel unbelievable."

Zhang Qi thought about it.Said: "What the Taiwei said is very true. In just three to five days since Taiwei Zhai was killed, the Dengzhou Army broke through Longmen and then Luoyang. Meng Bangxiong was powerless to fight back. Even if Wang Jieshuai had many soldiers, It won't be so fast. Don't talk about fighting, just hurrying, it's not bad to be able to reach Luoyang yesterday!"

Dong Xiandao: "From Linru Town to Luoyang for a hundred miles, it takes three days for a normal march. No matter how fast it is, it will take two days. Taiwei Zhai was killed, and the news reached Wang Jieshuai's ears. It will take two days. Let’s calculate it at the fastest speed. Even if there is no fighting on the road, it will take three days for the Dengzhou army to arrive in Luoyang. The problem now is that the Dengzhou army has occupied Luoyang. It’s less than five days. It’s too late for Meng Bangxiong to surrender when he sees the Dengzhou army. How can I believe it!”

Zhang Qi didn't say a word, and felt that something was wrong.It is not surprising that Wang Xiaolie won, but the speed was really too fast.

After thinking about it, Dong Xian said to his soldiers: "Go out and investigate! What's going on, we need to investigate clearly!"

The soldiers agreed, turned around and left the room.

Dong Xian turned around, looked at Zhang Qi, and said, "Wang Jieshuai's subordinates, can they still fly without eating or drinking? We are also paying attention to the situation in Luoyang, but their marching speed is far faster than our inquiring The speed of the message."

"Yes—" Zhang Qi nodded, not knowing what to say for a while.

Just then, a soldier came in.Said: "Taiwei, Taiwei Zhang Yin in Luoyang City, sent envoys to Shou'an!"

Dong Xian was startled when he heard this: "Which Zhang Yin Taiwei? I've never heard of it!"

The soldier said: "Taiwei Zhang Yin is the deputy capital commander of the Chinese army under the command of Wang Jieshuai. He led the army to defeat Luoyang last night."

"Vice Dutong?" Dong Xian looked at Zhang Qi, feeling a little strange. "Quickly invite the envoys to come in!"

The soldiers promised, turned and went out.

Not long after, the soldiers brought a Song general over.It looks like he is in his 30s, and he is extremely capable.

In the future, I will challenge Dong Xian.Said: "In Xialinwei, I am the Marquis of Zuoyu of the Central Army of the Dengzhou Army. I was ordered by the Deputy Commander to discuss the next battle with the Taiwei."

After finishing speaking, he took out the talisman in Wang Xiao's hunting army and handed it over.

Dong Xian was full of suspicion, took the talisman and saw that it was indeed Wang Xiao's hunting army.It's just that this Lin Wei had never even heard of his name before.

After handing over the talisman, Dong Xian asked, "I don't know what your orders are?"

Lin Weidao: "Our army breached Luoyang City in the early hours of yesterday, and Meng Bangxiong, who was left behind in the puppet Qi Xijing, was also captured. Last night, the Commander-in-Chief ordered us to immediately cooperate with the Taiwei to annihilate the enemy army in the west of Luoyang City. Deputy Commander-in-Chief Send me to Shouan to contact the Taiwei!"

"Really broke Luoyang?" Dong Xian was full of disbelief.

Lin Weidao: "Luoyang has really been broken! Taiwei, the deputy commander-in-chief decided to attack at the end of the day, and your army must set off immediately!"

"Wei Shi?" Dong Xian was taken aback. "Meng Bangxiong's army is thirty miles east of Shou'an. Unless we can fly, how can we get there?"

Lin Weidao: "Our army has to go farther there. In addition, fighting for several days is more difficult than the Taiwei. It's just that the soldiers are very fast. Now we only need to advance one day, and many people will die on the battlefield. When the war is not in time, It’s because no matter how late it is, it will soon be dark, and there is really no way.”

Dong Xian waved his hand: "No matter what, I can't make it! If you can make it, you can do it yourself!"

Lin Weidao: "If the Taiwei can't make it, please go forward ten miles to block the enemy's escape route to the north. Marshal Jie said that the remaining remnants of the army will never be allowed to flee to Xin'an, which will cause difficulties in the future."

Zhang Qi couldn't help interjecting: "Taiwei Lin, you—you really occupied Luoyang? Do you want to fight the enemy ahead?"

"There is no joke in the army!" Lin Wei looked serious. "We have been in a hurry for the past few days, and the army is not ready, but the battle still has to be fought! Today is six o'clock, and we must launch the attack on time! Someone has delayed the time, and the military law will proceed!"

Dong Xian took a deep breath.My intuition tells me that Wang Xiaolie's army is different from the previous ones, and this difference will directly impact my understanding of the world. Just now when Lin Wei said the words "military law and practice", he could feel a murderous aura.

Taking a long breath, Dong Xian said: "Mao is about to pass now, and I will not be able to catch up with the enemy at Wei time. The Taiwei can go back to the deputy capital commander, and I will lead the whole army to the east to block their retreat. As long as You have killed and dispersed the enemy army on the opposite side, I will never let anyone go to Xin'an!"
