contend

Chapter 568
Taiyuan.

At this moment, Zhou Yu was still hesitating.

As soon as Chen Tai died, Sima's heart fracture in Bingzhou was broken, and the Wei army in Bingzhou was in panic.

All the news sent back by the scouts confirmed this point.

The beacons and Wubao in Yuci, Yangyi, Shangai, and Daling saw the scouts of the Qin army and scattered.

A dozen scout teams can occupy a county.

Thanks to Liu Heng's continuous massacre of the city, the state and county soldiers in Bingzhou were extremely afraid of the Qin army.

In the Battle of Feng Sa, 16 Qin troops defeated Sima Zhao by [-], and the psychological impact on Kanto was indescribable.

And Luoyang killed the king in the street, Chen Tai vomited blood and died, which greatly reduced the morale of the Bingzhou defenders.

This is the external environment.

In the interior, Zhou Yu was promoted to the general of Zhenbei and the governor of Bingzhou, and there were quite a few criticisms in the army.

Liangzhou has always attached great importance to military merits, and almost every general has a good record, even Liu Heng, Pang Qing, Meng Guan and other younger generations have, not to mention Wen Yang, who is famous all over the world, broke through the land of Shu Kingdom. Zhang, Li Te, Zhou Zhi and others.

How can Zhou Yu turn a blind eye when others dare not speak to his face?

And he is forty this year.

As a warrior, at the age of 40, he was already a bit powerless on the battlefield.

Zhou Yu stroked the long sword inch by inch. This sword was bestowed by Yang Zheng himself. It has been honed over thousands of years, with fine workmanship and gorgeous decoration. The scabbard is inlaid with seven gems from the Western Regions.

The sword body like autumn water reflected his wrinkled face.

People in this era generally age quickly, especially in the northwest, where they are exposed to the wind and sun all year round.

Looking at his own face, Zhou Yu's eyes gradually became firmer, "A certain officer was originally a senior in the Chinese army, and he followed the king for more than ten years in bloody battles, and now he has today. Today, the Shangdang is empty, the enemy is terrified, and the opportunity to fight is fleeting. Only by going down to Shangdang can you repay the kindness of the king for knowing you!"

"I would like to obey the order of the governor!" The generals and school looked very happy, as long as it was a war, they would have no hesitation.

Zhou Yu's decision had a lot to do with them.

There are always people who keep asking for a fight.

After a few small-scale probing attacks, the enemy army was indeed vulnerable. When they saw the "Qin" banner, they fled tens of miles away.

Since King Qin's rise to the present, he has never lost a single battle on the battlefield, and he has already cultivated a large group of arrogant soldiers.

And the timidity of the enemy army stimulated their ferocity even more.

"Let's go!" Zhou Yu closed his long sword.

In the city of Taiyuan, war drums thundered and war horses neighed.

Seven thousand cavalry, nine thousand infantry, eight thousand government soldiers, and eight thousand Xianbei Yi Cong marched southward.

On the city wall, Malone sighed softly as he watched the retreating army.

To reward the generals, Ma Long had no military exploits and was unwilling to be an enemy of the Wei army, so he got a partial general, General Yingyanglang.

But Ma Long didn't care, Qin's generals were like clouds, and he was indeed not bad.

It is enough for a general who has made a request to be a partial general.

When Zhang Liao, Zhang He and other famous generals surrendered to Wei Wu, they were only one-sided generals.

"Why is the general sighing?" asked Wang Yan, his confidant.

Malone glanced left and right, but there were no outsiders, "I'm afraid this battle will be more dangerous than good."

"Why is this?"

"Soldiers, the important affairs of the country, the place of death and life, and the way of survival must be investigated. The governor of Zhou led his troops aggressively and only cared about the immediate benefits. How could he be undefeated? Although Luoyang was defeated, but the people were at their peak, how could they not know the art of war? Sima Zhao is not good at leading troops, but he is good at using people. Since Tang Bin and Liu Hong are the generals, these two must be talented! Shangdang is the throat of the Central Plains. It is a high-rise building overlooking Taiyuan, which is good for infantry defense. Our cavalry is not good for attacking the city. It’s a disadvantage in this battle.”

"Since the general knows, why didn't you persuade the governor?"

Ma Long smiled wryly, "If Mr. Wei is here, he can still listen to my advice. Governor Zhou...why would he listen to the words of a surrendered general?"

Ma Long persuaded Zhuge Dan and Shi Jian back then, but they were all ignored.

After so many years of continuous blows, Malone has matured and stabilized a lot.

How many people in the world can listen to advice sincerely?

Zhou Yu was in a high position, surrounded by people who were eager to fight, and said in unison, if Ma Long persuaded him, it would only attract hatred from others.

"It is rumored that the King of Qin accepts advice vainly..." Wang Yan said in a low voice.

"The king of Qin is the king of Qin, and the governor of Zhou is the governor of Zhou. Maybe it's just me thinking too much, let the brothers be prepared, Taiyuan must not be lost!" Ma Long didn't want to fight Sima Zhao, but if someone else beat him, it would be a different matter.

In fact, Zhou Yu's [-] army went very smoothly in the early stage.

Going down the Fenshui River, Chen Tai's line of defense was invincible, and even the Yindiguan just built broke up in a rush.

All the generals were overjoyed, "Wei people are so helpless, if we knew it earlier, we should go straight to Luoyang!"

"Sima Zhao is notorious for killing the king. We will wait for the Xingyi Banner to attack the Sima Clan. Of course, there will be no disadvantages." Zhou Yu was also elated.

"Just divide up an army, the governor takes Shangdang, goes to Baixing, and his subordinates take Hedong, goes to Zheguanxing, joins forces in Hanoi, first smashes Sima's ancestral grave, slaughters Sima's ancestral town, then breaks Mengjin, soldiers Lin Luoyang, even if you can't beat Luoyang, you can still scare old Sima!" Du He's words aroused a lot of echoes.

It's not that they are arrogant, but that Wei Jun is really vulnerable.

However, Zhou Yu was not overwhelmed, and said coldly: "The military strategy is established, how can we change it as soon as we say it? First take down Shangdang, then take Hedong, and open up the connection between Bingzhou and Guanzhong!"

"Wei!" The general said yes, but the expression on his face was disapproving.

Most of these generals were from Qianghu, and Duhe was also from a scorpion. He was fierce by nature, and there would be three feet of waves in the absence of wind, let alone in the army?

There are also Xianbei Yicong who came up from the grassland, entered the interior, and looted on their own.

Fortunately, the enemy is vulnerable.

Entering the boundary of Shangdang, the Wei army still did not resist.

Just rely on the city to defend.

The Qin army despised the Wei army even more. They easily crossed Qinshui and pushed into Yeli Mountain.

The scouts who sent out all around went out more, but the number of people who came back gradually decreased.

Zhou Yu also came out of Luogu. After more than 20 years of fighting, he was extremely vigilant.

Already faintly feeling bad.

Yuci, Yangyi, and Daling gave up and gave up, not even Qinshui?

The towering city walls in the distance are far away, the surrounding green hills are like barriers, and the branches of the continuous forest are like spears sticking out.

It was the end of May at the turn of spring and summer, but there were no birds or animals, and there was a murderous aura between the mountains and rivers.

The Shangdang is a party with the sky, hence the name Shangdang!
When they came here, the soldiers and horses were exhausted.

"The whole army stopped moving forward and set up camp!" Before he knew it, a layer of cold sweat covered Zhou Yu's forehead.

The generals were very unhappy, "Huguan is ahead, wouldn't it be better to take this city and rest?"

All the way to triumph, let them lose their vigilance to danger.

Zhou Yu glanced over coldly, and no one dared to say more.

However, it was too late, the ground shook slightly, and on the west and south sides, countless black armors gushed out like tides, condescending.

There is a big flag with the word "Tang" in the west and a big flag with the word "Liu" in the south.

All over the mountains and plains are the sound of armor clanging.

Only flags fluttering in the mountains and forests.

The ground shakes and the mountains shake, and the vegetation becomes soldiers.
