Chapter 473
After hearing Zhao Yue's words, Yan Xing was so angry!
Rebellion, this is rebellion!How can it be compared with ordinary work?A little carelessness can lead to annihilation of the family!

At this time, Zhao Ang was not here to join forces with the big guys to find a way to deal with Yuan Shang, but ran out to find some kind of stepmother for his son!
Was his son Zhao Yue not weaned?Or is he very old and lacks a sense of security and needs a wife?

Seeing that Yan Xing's face was a bit unsightly, Yang Fu, who was the leader on the left, stood up with a wry smile, and began to explain for Zhao Ang.

"Yan Shuai, to tell you the truth, the woman Zhao Ang is looking for is not ordinary. She is the daughter of Wang's family, a wealthy family in Hanzhong. She is called Wang Yi. Later, she moved her family to live in Liangsai. Wang Yi is a concubine of the Wang family. She has the blood of Yanqi, a small country in the Western Regions, so she was born different from ordinary Han people. She has a foreign style outside the Great Wall. The woman's skin is as white as snow, her hair is slightly curly yellow, and her eyes are blue. It’s very impressive! It’s because Zhao Ang has admired him for many years, but the threshold of the Wang family is high, Zhao Ang failed to propose marriage several times, so it has been put on hold. different, so..."

Yan Xing's face was gloomy, and he said: "So you want to take advantage of my commander's troubles to coerce the Wang family to marry a daughter?"

Yang Fu smiled helplessly, and said, "Probably this is the reason..."

Yan Xing turned his finger to Zhao Yue in dissatisfaction, and said helplessly: "Look at you, father, what a thing! Rebellion is enough to make people despised, and you have to rob people's daughters! The face of my rebel army Let him lose it all!"

Zhao Yue couldn't help sticking out her tongue when she heard the words, secretly thinking that it's not shameful for you to lead the rebellion, but it's shameful for my father to find me a stepmother?

After posting a complaint, Yan Xing also flipped the page and asked everyone: "Zhao Ang is not here, so I will ignore him. Now that the Jingzhao has arrived, Chang'an is right in front of us, but Hao Zhao is lying on guard." Chang'an, rectify the troops and guard the garrison carefully, this man is highly skilled and best at defending the city, plus the walls of Chang'an are high and thick, how do you think we should attack?"

Meng Jian didn't say anything about it. Although he was the most resourceful among them, he was a foreigner after all, and he didn't command soldiers. The battle with Chang'an was destined to be a head-to-head offensive and defensive battle. There were few skills and strategies at all. It's useless to try to say something.

Yang Fu thought for a while, and said: "To the west of Jingzhao, the best barrier except Chang'an is Xianyang. If Yan Shuai wants to take Chang'an, he must take Xianyang first. If Xianyang is lost, the soldiers and citizens in Chang'an city must be terrified. If you have no intention of guarding, even though Hao Zhao is capable, it is not difficult to defeat! Moreover, Wugong County and Mei County are both located in Xianyang, so if you get here, you will be able to easily control Zhanglu's situation in Hanzhong, which will be of great benefit to your future actions!"

Yan Xing stroked the tiger's beard, thought carefully, nodded and said: "Yang Fu's words are very kind, let's take down Xianyang first to deter Chang'an!"

********************
Yan Xing and his group first arrived at Jingzhao, intending to attack Xianyang first, while Yuan Shang was in the east, setting up an ambush on both sides, attacking Xu Shu's Tianzi army from both sides.

Yuan Shang became the Great General of the Great Sima, and the Yuan family was passed down to his generation, which has become the fifth generation and third prince. Xu Shu originally thought that with Yuan Shang's family status, even if he opposed them, he would not easily attack the Emperor's Army. At most it just drives things away.

I don’t want Yuan Shang to shoot Tong Fei first, and then set up an ambush. The two-phase attack has no intention of softening. Yuan’s army has 3 people, and they are attacking from front to back. Under the protection of Tong Fei, Xu Rong, Hu Zhen, Yang Ding and other generals, they rushed back to Luoyang, and most of the [-] soldiers and horses under them were left here.

Yuan Shang didn't order the soldiers to fight quickly, but let the soldiers and horses surround and not attack, spread their banners and recruit them to surrender.

In this way, the emperor's generals who wanted to fish in troubled waters were expelled, and about [-] emperor's troops in Luoyang were recruited, killing the slightest sign that the emperor wanted to go west.

On the way back to the camp, Yuan Shang explained to the generals the strategic intention of dealing with the weakest and least threatening side of the emperor first.

"This time in Guanzhong, our Hebei army can't move lightly. We can only use 25 Bingzhou troops to fight against multiple forces. The situation in Guanzhong is complicated. We have to deal with more than 3000 soldiers and horses. The strength is very different. It is not easy to fight head-on. , so we start with the weakest ones first, and the second is to defeat them. Mergers are the main purpose. If we fight this way, we can recover quickly. For example, after this battle, we have increased nearly [-] people out of thin air. However, according to this method, we can accumulate little and make more, gradually narrowing the gap in troop strength, and finally have a decisive battle with Yan Xing, Song Jian and others!"

The generals suddenly realized when they heard the words.

But Xia Houyuan squinted at Yuan Shang and said, "I understand...you mean, you plan to take advantage of this battle to quell the rebellion in Guanzhong to suppress a Guanzhong army? Your thinking is too naive, right?" !"

Yuan Shang smiled and said: "It's naive, but it doesn't prevent me from trying to do it. Since Dong Zhuo's chaos in Guanzhong, there have been years of wars, and the population has been reduced. It is too difficult to recruit troops and horses from households. How about taking advantage of the counter-insurgency to absorb the strength of these many enemies and build a powerful Guanzhong army! It will echo our Hebei army! Let the forces of the four directions no longer dare to spy on the land of Yongliang and Liangzhou!"

Xia Houyuan snorted, but said nothing.

Yuan Shang didn't take it seriously, and continued to ask him: "Father-in-law, I invited you to Yongzhou this time to make use of your rushing tactics to break the deadlock in Yongliang. Now that I have arrived in Guanzhong, I wonder how you plan to help me?"

Xia Houyuan squinted his eyes, and said lightly: "I am good at running thousands of miles, but I have to be strict with soldiers. If you want to use me, you need to borrow three thousand cavalry from me! I will train them for a period of time before you can go out with me in battle." !"

Yuan Shang smiled and said: "It's simple, the 3000 tigers and wolves in Bingzhou, plus the [-] soldiers who have just been surrendered, make a total of [-] people, and the father-in-law will pick people from the inside, whoever you want! I'll figure out a way about the horses! And Ma Dai will send you as the lieutenant general."

Xia Houyuan sneered, and said, "Send a deputy? Monitor the general?"

Yuan Shang smiled wryly, and said: "My lord Yuezhang, please understand that your status is special, and it would be risky enough for you to lead an army alone. Even my son-in-law can't explain it."

Xia Houyuan thought about it, the old man belongs to the old man, but he is a general of the Cao family after all, and this battle is not counted as surrendering to Yuan Shang, he is just helping him with Zhong Yao, and it is not appropriate to lead the army alone, so he nodded .

After returning to the camp, the spies who came back from Jingzhao rushed to see Yuan Shang and told him the news they had heard.

After listening to the spy's overview, Yuan Shang walked to the sand table in the commander's tent, pointed it back and forth with his hands, and said, "Yan Xing's troops and horses are all stationed in the west of Fufeng County, and they are encircling Jingzhao. Come and attack Chang'an immediately!"

Zhong Yao had a deep understanding of Guanzhong. He pondered for a while, and then guessed Yan Xing's strategic intentions: "Although Yan Xing stationed troops in the west of Fufeng, the ultimate goal is Chang'an, but before attacking Chang'an, Yan Xing must first take Xianyang!"

Seeing that Yuan Shang was puzzled, Zhong Yao immediately explained: "Xianyang is in the west of Chang'an, and it has been Chang'an's last barrier to Shu and Liang since ancient times. , but it dealt a great blow to the morale of the soldiers and horses in Chang'an City! And after capturing Xianyang, the east and west routes can directly control Wugong County and Mei County to suppress Zhang Lu in Hanzhong. At that time, Yan Xing will have the initiative. According to the situation in Guanzhong, we can either unite with Zhang Lu and let them enter Guanzhong, or strangle the main roads of Wugong County and Mei County, guard Qishan and Ziwu Valley, suppress Zhang Lu, and prevent him from entering the army."

Yuan Shang rubbed his chin and sighed: "It's just Xianyang City, how can he make so many flower arrangements? Yan Xing is not bad."

Zhong Yao nodded and said: "Although that is the case, we are short of troops, and Xianyang must be handed over to him. It is a helpless thing."

Yuan Shang thought for a while, and said: "Xianyang can be given to him, but morale must not be lost! The morale of Chang'an's army and civilians plummeted after Xianyang City was destroyed, which is not conducive to defense and future counterattacks, and it is not conducive to our recruitment of those little princes who are like grass in the pass... ...Therefore, the top priority is to win the battle after Xianyang is lost! To restore morale, let everyone see that the right to speak in Guanzhong is still in my hands!"

Zhong Yao stroked his beard, thought for a while and said, "If you can really win a battle, the old man promises to come forward immediately and call on all the small warlords in Guanzhong. Although you can't let them all belong to you, at least they won't participate in Yan Xing Rebellion."

Yuan Shang smiled slightly and said: "This is simple, and I don't need to do it at all. When Yan Xing captures Xianyang, he will directly use the pigeon whistle to send an order to let Hao Zhao go out of the city to attack the bandits, and win him for a while!"

General Pang De was surprised when he heard the words, and said, "My lord, isn't Hao Zhao's mission to defend Chang'an City? Why did he suddenly change his original intention and let him go to battle instead of defending?"

Yuan Shang turned his head and said: "It's because I issued a strict order to let Hao Zhao die in Chang'an, and he also planned to do so, and put on a posture to stick to Chang'an with all his strength! All rebels, including Hao Zhao himself, think that the current The most important thing is that we must strictly guard Chang'an City. I am ordering him to attack at this moment. No one would have thought that he will be able to win for a while! After a while of victory, he will return to Chang'an and stick to it. With the morale soaring, he will not be attacked if he loses Xianyang. The defenders of Chang'an have arrived!"

Pang De was taken aback when he heard the words, and suddenly said: "My lord, then... what should we do?"

Yuan Shang raised his hand and pointed at Mei County, and said with a smile: "On the surface, he marched to Chang'an to help Hao Zhao fight against Yan Xing, but in fact, he turned halfway and went to station in Mei County... I have already said that we must take advantage of this opportunity to counter the rebellion to fight against Yan Xing. Let’s absorb the forces of the various ministries around Guanzhong to build a powerful Guanzhong army. Yan Xing currently has a large number of soldiers, so we will not move him for now! Let him entangle with Hao Zhao, we will target others!”

Zhong Yao looked down at the sand table, his heart moved, and he said, "Mr. Yuan first surrendered three thousand soldiers of the Son of Heaven to Na in the east, and now he is going to Mei County again. Could it be that he wants to attack Zhang Lu in Hanzhong again?"

Yuan Shang nodded and said: "That's right, in the battle of Yangping Pass, Zhang Lu was defeated by Zhao Yun, and Yang Ang was defeated. Yang was appointed as two generals, and his morale fell to the bottom. I guess what he wants most now is to take advantage of Guan Zhong Re-establish prestige in Hanzhong! If you don’t take the opportunity to join him, wouldn’t it be too disappointing for the ambition of the leader of Wudoumi?”

Zhong Yao stroked his beard and said, "Mr. Yuan is very calculating, but Hanzhong's terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. If you want to move Zhang Lu, you have to lure him out of Hanzhong. The old man lived in Guanzhong for a long time, and he knew that there was a man named Zhang Lu under his command. Yang Song, this person is extremely greedy, if he uses it well, he will surely fulfill Yuan Gong's wish."

"........."

 It stands to reason that Zhao Yue should be Wang Yi's own son, but if it is arranged like this, the year and age will not fit according to the plot, so I will change it to stepmother, don't be serious.
