I am not an ant thief in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 517, Looking at Luoyang again!
At the beginning of May of the second year of Jian'an (AD 197)!Hanoi County, Ha Duong Barracks.

Compared with other troops in Dagan, Wang Yong's 5000 troops attacked Hanoi County most easily. The dangerous places in Hanoi have long been occupied by Dagan. Sexually deployed [-] troops to be stationed in Hanoi County!

So when Wang Yong's men and horses attacked, the 1 cavalry of just one vanguard, Wan Lang, was in full swing in Hanoi County. All the way, it can be said that the three cities were captured by day and the eight villages by night. The speed of attack even exceeded the speed of Wang Yong's follow-up march. The entire Hanoi County can be said to be captured by Wan Lang's cavalry.

After all the land north of the Yellow River has been occupied by Wang Yong and the others, the rest is tough!

So Wang Yong led the army to hoard Heyang County, preparing to launch the final blow to the eight passes outside Luoyang City!
Wang Yong stood in front of the sand table and explained to the generals the current situation of the various armies of the Dagan Army.

"Now we are the closest to Luoyang City, and now we are the closest to Luoyang City, and now only Mengjin is standing in front of us. As long as Mengjin is defeated, the defense of the eight gates of Luoyang City will collapse, and the [-] troops of our Dagan Army You can come to the city of Luoyang.

"And we are not without opponents now. Yang Feng's army has already attacked Hulao Pass. If Hulao Pass is breached, the eight defense lines will be completely breached. The Taiyuan Army led by the ruling party is also attacking the city in Hedong. In a few days, it is possible to cross the Yellow River and attack Shan County, and the Xiliang Army has completely occupied Guanzhong. If the two armies converge, there will be [-] troops. Luoyang City!"

"If Luoyang City is captured by the ruling Taiyuan Army and Xiliang Army, our only contribution is to occupy Hanoi. If our [-] army occupies Hanoi, it will be a disgrace to our entire army! So everyone think about what to do Quickly break through the Mengjin Ferry!"

Wan Lang said: "Mengjin is only 50 miles away from Luoyang. Yuan Xi must have a heavy army here. If our army wants to quickly cross the Yellow River and capture Mengjin Ferry, we must have the help of the Yellow River Navy. Otherwise, I'm afraid it will be very difficult. "

Sun Qing said with a bitter face: "Fan Xian's navy is still in Jizhou, even if we send a message, it may take 10 days for the Yellow River navy to arrive on the battlefield!"

No one thought that Yuan Tan's army would be so vulnerable at the beginning of this battle, and Wang Yong's army was just a feint attack, and they joined the siege of Luoyang City after Yang Feng and the others broke through the Hulao Pass. Wang Yong didn't want to regard his army as a feint attack army!

Wang Yong said solemnly: "Without the navy, wouldn't we have a war?"

Wan Lang wondered: "Without the help of the navy, we want to conquer Mengjin, which is very difficult. Just how to cross the Yellow River is a big difficulty! I think we should wait a few days until Fan Xian's navy arrives in Hanoi before crossing the river." It's the same! Hulao Pass is the first pass in the Central Plains, and it's very difficult for Yang Feng and the others to break through it in a short time!

There are also ferries in Hanoi, but these ferries are obviously not the same as warships. If these ferries are really used to transport soldiers, the Dagan army may suffer heavy casualties!

But Wang Yong disdainfully said: "If Yuan Shao's soldiers used to be, I wouldn't worry about them, but now you have seen the soldiers under Yuan Xi's command. Those who wait and surrender can be regarded as brave. This is the first time that the Chinese army can't catch up with the striker, Yuan Xi's soldiers are just made of mud, they look good but they don't work!"

Then Wang Yong continued: "You don't have to look too high at the natural dangers of the Yellow River. The Yellow River in the Mengjin section is about [-] miles away. Among them, the larger crossings are Mengjin, Pingyinjin, Yebanjin, Weisujin, Xiashijin, and Shuijingjin. There are seven ferry crossings in Hefupingjin, how many tens of thousands of soldiers does Yuan Xi have in his hands now?
How could he deploy too many troops to guard these ferry crossings? Could it be that he didn't guard Luoyang City, nor did he guard Hangu Pass? With so many places to guard, how can he focus on a few places with tens of thousands of people!As long as we divide everyone into seven groups and make a state of attacking these seven ferries, I don't believe that Yuan Xi can use all the troops in Luoyang City to defend these seven ferries! "

After listening to Wang Yong's words, Wan Lang's eyes lit up and he said: "Since Xiaopingjin is the closest to Luoyang City, Yuan Xi's troops stationed at most are about 3000 people. There are also many troops at Mengjin Ferry and Fupingjin Ferry, about 2000 people. Others The defensive forces at the four ferries are relatively weak, about a thousand, and most of them are recruits. If we use a part of our troops to attack Mengjin, Xiaopingjin, and Fupingjin and force Yuan Xi to support these three ferries, then we will suddenly attack with the main force. If any of the crossings in Pingyinjin, Yebanjin, Weisujin, and Xiashijin launches a surprise attack, they will definitely not be able to hold them! And as long as we break through any of the crossings, the eight passes of Luoyang will be considered breached!"

Sun Qing asked: "How do we cross the river? With the ships we have now, it may be difficult to transport [-] soldiers at one time. How can we concentrate our forces to attack?"

Wang Yong smiled and said: "Mobilize the people in Hanoi and let them help us make sheepskin rafts. We launched an army of 2 at one time in the middle of the night to attack Pingyinjin. I don't believe that the current Han army can withstand our army dozens of times stronger." attack!"

After discussing for a while, the generals found that Wang Yong's plan was feasible, so they acted according to the plan!

Then Sun Qing led an army of 7000 to pretend to be an army of 7, and then divided the troops into seven groups and came to the opposite of the seven ferries, pretending to be attacking!
Gao Rou, the defender of Mengjin, clearly knew that the Dagan Army was bluffing, but he dared not take it lightly. He sent a large number of scouts to investigate the Dagan Army, and even asked Yuan Xi for help!
But what can Yuan Xi do at this time? Hedong County asks him for help, Hulao Pass asks him for help, Hangu Pass asks him for help, reinforcements are needed everywhere, and the enemies everywhere are extremely powerful. The troops can support that way!Now he can only watch hundreds of thousands of troops slowly surround Luoyang, but he can't find any solution, so he can only let Gao Rou find a way to resist Dagan!
Gao Rou didn't wait for Yuan Xi's reinforcements. Instead, like a frightened bird, she defended tightly by the Yellow River for three days. The soldiers didn't even dare to rest, for fear that the big army would really come in like this!But after listening to the drums for three days, Gao Rou's soldiers were exhausted!
At the Pingyinjin Ferry, the moon and stars are sparse, and the majestic Yellow River is bathed in white moonlight. The Han soldiers who have been exhausted for several days are holding their spears, dozing off with their sleepy eyes slightly closed, and have not noticed the distance not far away. There are some strange things all over the Yellow River just around the corner!
I don't know how long it took, the sentry of the Han army suddenly heard a loud noise, and when he blinked his eyes, he suddenly found that there were figures everywhere on the Yellow River!
It's a big army!The soldiers suddenly passed a chill, and then shouted loudly: "The big army is coming, everyone is ready to fight!"

"Boom boom boom..." The soldiers of the Han army immediately thought of using war drums to remind everyone to pay attention.

The sound of war drums woke up all the soldiers in Pingyinjin. When everyone was panicked and ready to fight, they found that there were already countless soldiers in front of them and formed an army formation, ready to attack them!
In the dark night, the soldiers of the Han army didn't know how many Han troops attacked them, ten thousand?Twenty or twenty thousand, or thirty thousand?

Anyway, just now they see dozens of times more soldiers than them!This caused all the soldiers in Pingyinjin to die, and it was impossible to win!
So when the Dagan army rushed up, only a few Han soldiers dared to step forward to fight. In this way, Pingyinjin soldiers were taken down without bloodshed!

The news of the occupation of Pingyinjin quickly spread to Wang Yong's camp, and Wang Yong immediately led an army of 2 to cross the river!In just one night, 3 large army soldiers crossed the Yellow River. After these soldiers made a little repair, they rushed to Mengjin Ferry under the leadership of Wang Yong.

Before Gao Rou could react, he was surrounded in Mengjin. The soldiers in Gao Rou's hands were not as many as Wang Yong's, and they had no morale. Seeing that there were several times more soldiers than herself, the 3000 soldiers in Gao Rou's hands The soldiers were defeated on the spot, and Gao Rou herself was chased and hacked to death by Wang Yong!Then Wang Yong led the army all the way to attack the soldiers stationed at other ferries, and 1 Han soldiers were wiped out by Wang Yong!

When the sun rose, all the seven major ferries near Mengjin were captured by the Dagan Army, and the remaining soldiers of the Dagan Army also crossed the Yellow River one after another. The 5 Dagan Army soldiers were ready to go and marched towards Luoyang City.

The story was divided into two parts. Yuan Xicai learned the news that Mengjin had fallen after the rout of soldiers fled to Luoyang City!

"How many large cadres have crossed the Yellow River?" Yuan Xi asked!
The defeated soldiers panicked and said: "Boundless and boundless, tens of thousands of people have captured Mengjin. They are tall and powerful, and we are no match at all!"

Yuan Xi was furious and said: "A bunch of trash, cut them down, and let everyone know what happens to deserters!"

After talking, a few soldiers grabbed these broken soldiers and dragged them away!
Yuan Xi was in extreme pain at this time, he knew that Baguan would not be able to hold it!The big army is coming to the city!Although he knew that there would be this result, it was still hard to bear it when he faced it.

Yuan Xi ordered that the defenders of the Eight Passes be withdrawn to Luoyang immediately.At this time, the defenders of the eight gates were already frightened. After hearing the thorough order, they rushed to Luoyang City one by one under the command of the defenders!

But Yang Feng and the others at Hulao Pass soon discovered that Hulao Pass was empty. Yang Feng immediately dispatched 1000 cavalry to catch up with the fleeing soldiers at Hulao Pass. They hacked and killed the soldiers. Only a few guards escaped. After a catastrophe, the rest were either killed by cavalry or captured.

After interrogating these captured soldiers, Yang Feng knew that it was Yuan Xi who ordered them to abandon Hulao Pass and return to Luoyang City!

Xu Huang was pleasantly surprised: "It was our army who broke through the defense of Luoyang Eight Passes!"

Then Xu Huang thought about it and said with a smile: "It should be General Wang Yong who broke through Mengjin!"

Yang Feng also laughed and said: "It must be so, the ruling should still be outside Hangu Pass, there is no one else except them, this time it is Wang Yong who made the first contribution!"

Yan Liang said unhappily: "The credit has been taken by others, and now we only hope that we are the ones who broke through Luoyang City!"

Xu Huang said with a smile: "Brother Yan Liang wants to make more contributions. The defenders of Luoyang Eight Passes should have been ordered at about the same time. Brother Yan Liang can lead the cavalry to stop these thorough soldiers and reduce the number of Han troops entering Luoyang City. Our next step is to attack Luoyang City and make great achievements!"

Yan Liang looked at Yang Feng!

Yang Feng said with a smile: "How much credit our army can have depends on you, Yan Liang!"

Yan Liang laughed loudly and said, "This subordinate will definitely not disappoint the general!"

After speaking, Yan Liang led 1000 cavalry to charge towards Yique!

"Xianyi! The big thing is not good. After hearing your order to retreat, the guard of Luoyang Eight Gates did not arrange for the soldiers to defend against the pursuers. Now they are being chased and killed by the big army. Now there are soldiers from the four gates. After being overwhelmed, there are not even 20 soldiers returning to Chang'an City, and the entire Luoyang City will be surrounded by more than [-] cadres in a short time, so you should leave Luoyang as soon as possible." Guo Tu urged anxiously.

But Yuan Xi said desperately: "Where can I retreat now? With me in Luoyang City, everyone can guard for a few more days, but if I also escape, I am afraid that Luoyang City will die without a fight just like Chang'an City." drop!"

Outside Luoyang City, Yang Feng and Wang Yong's two armies joined forces outside Luoyang City!
Seeing Wang Yong, Yang Feng laughed loudly and said, "Wang Yong, you have broken the Eight Passes of Luoyang before you even reached Luoyang City when you were in power. You have made your first contribution in conquering Luoyang City this time!"

Wang Yong smiled and said: "This is because I have taken advantage of the land. Hanoi County has no danger to defend at all, and Yuan Xi did not arrange many soldiers to defend. Unlike the difficult terrain in Hedong where the ruling is difficult, the resistance of the landlords of the Hedong Gate is also very fierce. It is a distance from Luoyang. The city is still relatively far away, otherwise I wouldn't be the first to break into Luoyang City!"

Then Wang Yong asked: "The two of us together have 10 troops. With the current moraleless state of the Han army, maybe we can conquer Luoyang City in one battle and establish an invincible achievement. Yang Feng, would you like to give it a try?" ?”

Yang Feng looked at Luoyang City and said: "Luoyang City is high and deep, and there are 3 to 4 troops, and there are many fortifications on the periphery. Our [-] people alone are not enough to conquer Luoyang City!"

Wang Yong was disappointed after all when he heard this!
But Yang Feng approached him cautiously and said: "After all, Luoyang City is the capital of the Han Dynasty, and the ruling power is only a few hundred miles away from Luoyang City. If we conquer Luoyang City now, do you want the ruling power to run for hundreds of miles in vain?" , and this battle is so powerful, do you want to let the ruling only have the record of conquering a county in Hedong!"

Wang Yong broke into a cold sweat when he heard this. He was not satisfied with conquering a Hanoi county by himself, let alone governing. Now that the war has been fought, it can be said that Dagan occupied Luoyang City. If he conquered it in advance Luoyang City, this is not taking credit for being in power!

Wang Yong immediately saluted and said, "If it wasn't for Brother Yang Feng's reminder, I would have done something wrong!"
