A City of Infinite Winners in One's Life

chapter 587. break the level

The two sides collided directly. It should be said that the cavalry of the defending army was caught in the middle, unable to rush forward, and all people were behind, and it was not easy to move.Faced with this situation, weapons like the long hook come in handy.It is not a disadvantage for the infantry to deal with the cavalry that has lost its impact, especially in the case of such an advantage in numbers, the attacks from all directions are directed at the cavalry in the front row, and the cavalry units of the defending army are simply unable to parry.

Greeted by various weapons, the cavalry was directly knocked off their horses, and then they were cut to pieces by the Allied infantry.

Stepping on the corpses of the cavalry, the Allied infantry under the leadership of the unparalleled generals launched a charge. Of course, this charge was controlled, maintaining a safe distance from the opponent's city wall, and not giving the defenders' city defense weapons a chance to strike.

The crushing effect brought about by the absolute advantage of the number of "[-]" pairs was terrifying. Although the defenders had the right idea of ​​fighting, they were stunned by Li Wei, so the attacking troops were directly swallowed by the Allies. .Although the losses of the Allies were not small, the defenders were the ones who suffered the most.

Li Wei just watched the performance of the vanguard from a distance. Although it was not a battle of the Yuzhou Army, Li Wei was habitually observing it carefully. It should be said that by the standard of ordinary people, the first time he used this tactic, he would To be able to achieve such a record, the Allies really did a good job this time, although their own losses were not small, but overall they took a big advantage.

After the active defenders were wiped out, the second batch of tortoise-type trebuchets also completed combat preparations and began to throw stone bombs and kerosene tanks at the city wall of Hulao Pass.Nearly [-] catapults bombarded indiscriminately, and three hours later, a huge gap was smashed into the wall of Hulao Pass, and the entire pass was in a half-crippled state.

To be able to fight so smoothly, not only because of the correct use of tactics, but also because the defenders did not have the best rushing generals. If there are fierce generals like Lu Bu in the defenders, if Li Wei does not make a move, the alliance will The army's offensive is likely to be blocked.But there are many things if there is no if, the defender loses is lost.After losing the foundation of defense, the defenders had to retreat urgently, but the Allies did not pursue the victory, but chose to station in Hulao Pass.

After breaking through Hulao Pass, there is a smooth road ahead, only the giant city of Luoyang City remains. Although Luoyang City is not as defensive as Hulao Pass, He Miao's main force is near Luoyang City. At this time It is easy to be caught off guard by He Miaojun, who is waiting for work.And now the Allied forces don't know much about the environment around Luoyang City, and rashly dispatching is likely to be ambushed by the opposite side, so being cautious is not a bad thing.

After conquering Hulao Pass, the commanders of the Allied forces began to hold banquets again, entertaining the senior generals of various princes. Because of the victories, the atmosphere of the banquet was quite good.As a provider of siege weapons, Li Wei naturally received the respect of various princes, which made Yuan Shao a little unhappy, but Li Wei's power was huge.

Li Wei was also enthusiastically filled with wine by various princes. Luoyang City was right in front of him. Li Wei knew that he could start doing things next.

However, there were also discordant voices at the banquet. For example, Liu Bei expressed doubts about the Allied army's renovation.

Liu Bei stood up and said, cupped his hands, and said, "Lord Yuan, Luoyang City is right in front of you, but I'm drinking and having fun here, isn't it inappropriate?"

Liu Bei was also anxious in his heart. He Miao had a very flexible mind, and now he was in control of the government again. If it was to be detrimental to the emperor, it would be a big deal.What Liu Bei was afraid of was that He Miao hijacked the emperor and fled. Although he had absolutely no feelings for the current little emperor, Liu Bei was also a relative of the Han family after all, so he still had to think about this matter.

"Oh? Xuande is questioning the decision of a certain family?" Yuan Shao said unhappily, he had nothing to do with Li Wei, and now even Liu Bei, who was at the bottom of the ranking, dared to choke him.

"I don't dare. I'm just worried that He Miao will kidnap His Majesty and flee. This matter has to be guarded against. I was impatient, so I made a slip of the tongue." Liu Bei was very alert, and when he heard Yuan Shao's tone was wrong, he immediately explained.

Yuan Shao touched his goatee, frowned, and said, "He Miao, maybe he can really do something like this... ......well, I'll send a cavalry over there. If you stare at the periphery of Luoyang City, you can find out if there is any trouble. If His Majesty is kidnapped, then our efforts this time will be in vain."

Yuan Shao was still thinking about using the emperor to command the princes. How could He Miao be able to take the emperor away? Although the current little emperor was not in the right position, the emperor was the emperor, and the nominal orthodoxy was him.Yuan Shao knew his own situation. The fourth and third princes looked incredible, but this was all based on the name of the loyal ministers of the Han family, so Yuan Shao planned to let Yan Liang lead the cavalry, and he could deal with it if any accident happened.

Li Wei looked at Liu Bei and Yuan Shao and just smiled.No matter what Liu Bei's true thoughts are, the emperor is doomed this time, and the Allied invasion of Luoyang is itself a subversive disturbance/turmoil, and it is also an important step to sweep away the majesty of the Han family. Thief", has attracted the attention of the world, and since this is the case, then the more chaotic the better.Only by letting the people of the world know that the entire land of China is in chaos will they recognize the reality and know that the Han Empire is over.

Li Wei looked at Cao Cao. Cao Cao seemed to want to say something, but he didn't say it in the end. The current Cao Cao is not as beautiful as the original book, and Cao Cao stabbed Dong to earn a lot of fame, and now Cao 2.9 Because of his lack of strength, Cao couldn't speak hard enough.In addition, Cao Cao himself and Yuan Shao had a festival, so many words could not be said.

The shadow troops in Luoyang City have been staring at the movements of the palace, bribing the eunuchs beside the emperor, the little emperor's every move can't escape Li Wei's eyes, and now He Miao is still preparing for battle, ready to take advantage of Luoyang City's defense and alliance. The army started a head-to-head contest, and He Miao now had enough troops in his hands. Li Wei was not surprised to have such an idea.However, He Miao was still too confident. Although the coalition was not united, the lineup was luxurious. Even if the diamond bosses were not united, it would be easy to get a Bronze Five.

Li Wei is not standing up the flag, but this time the battle is really stable, and He Miao can't make any waves at all. .

chapter 588 .

At this moment, Luoyang City is actually not calm. Regarding the attitude of the allied forces, the mood of the court officials is complicated. Luoyang City has always been a place of great power. The officials were all terrified.The slogan of the Allies now is to shout the side of Qingjun, drive away He Miao, but who can be sure that these ambitious warlords will fulfill their promises after entering Luoyang City.

As for the warlords, the officials of the imperial court are really unbelievable. It is not that there are not many people in the allied army who can believe it, but there are definitely not many.For example, Li Wei, Liu Bei, Liu Biao, etc., can still be trusted, but Dong Zhuo, Gongsun Zan, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Zhang Yang, etc., who would dare to believe these people?

Therefore, in the face of the allied forces that were about to kill Luoyang City, the response of the court was also very ambiguous. Anyway, it was with the current little emperor as the core and did not participate in the struggle between He Miao and the allied forces. Since He Miao pushed a When the emperor comes up, no matter whether the emperor is a waste or not, now the court has no choice, and can only go down the current path.

Because other people can overthrow the emperor, but the capital officials in Luoyang cannot. Let’s not talk about whether they will bear the infamy of being a traitor. Their own 19 rights only come from the emperor. To deny the legitimacy of the emperor is to deny the legitimacy of the emperor. Their own rights are legal, so He Miao can temporarily choose a new emperor, but other officials can only recognize it.

Luoyang City is extremely prosperous. If the allied forces really come in, these warlords with different qualities, if they rob them, are afraid that the entire Luoyang will be destroyed in one fell swoop, so the court is actually very entangled, and no one of this group is suitable.

Compared with the entanglement of the senior management in Luoyang, Li Wei was not shaken in the slightest. Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. How can we welcome the new without saying goodbye to the old?The shadow troops in Luoyang City have long been prepared. Long ago, the shadow troops under Li Wei purchased real estate in Luoyang City and opened an inn. Taking this opportunity, they even dug out a road connecting the inner city and the outer city. typical.

This tunnel is not big, and it can't be used when there are too many people, but if it is only a small-scale army to transfer people and materials, there is no problem. Just like now, there is no problem in transmitting messages.Because he was worried about leaking secrets, Li Wei did not carry out large-scale transmission of radio or anything. Only the shadow troops in Yuzhou were equipped with radios to facilitate monitoring of the entire territory.

The news in Luoyang City kept gathering on Li Wei's desk. Li Wei was one of the people who knew the current situation in Luoyang City, but Li Wei ordered the shadow troops to act and find a way to bring Cai Yong and Cai Yan. come out.

If Luoyang goes to war, then the court officials will not be spared. Cai Yong is a highly respected person in the entire Confucian system, but Cai Yong is also a person with a strong ability to accept new things. If Cai Yong can be convinced , then it can also tear a gap in the strong barrier of Confucianism.

In addition to Cai Yong, who is really talented, his special status in Confucianism is worthy of Li Wei's investment. Of course, it is also an important thing for him to have a good daughter.Cai Yan, also known as Cai Wenji, is not only very talented, but also a well-known beauty. A slender lady and gentleman, Li Wei, who is not a gentleman, also yearns for swan meat.

Cai Wenji's situation in history is not very good. If she doesn't care about her, it is very likely that she was kidnapped by the Huns just like in the original history. This kind of thing is absolutely not allowed by Li Wei. It belongs to the face of the whole nation.Li Wei knows that he is not a good person, but at least he still has a sense of belonging, otherwise he would not want to reform the entire land of China. If Cai Wenji cannot be rescued, then this battle will Even if he scored in Luoyang, he also lost half of it.

As for Wang Yun?Once a loyal official of the Han family like Wang Yun knew about Li Wei's intentions, he would definitely turn against Li Wei, so Li Wei didn't intend to take care of Wang Yun, or the conflict between Wang Yun and He Miao, and just watched it on the sidelines. .

Although Wang Yun is Li Wei's father-in-law, but the way is different, Li Wei doesn't want to find a big trouble for himself to go home, so for Wang Yun, Li Wei can only say sorry.

On the case, one letter after another was placed everywhere, and Li Wei also read them one by one. Sometimes the details determine success or failure, so the secret documents directly presented to him by the Shadow Troops need to be reviewed. .

Inside Luoyang City, in the Cai Mansion, Cai Yong held bamboo slips in his hands and read them under the dim light of the oil lamp.Cai Yong is not a peerless general, his hair is gray at this age, and when the night wind blows, Cai Yong shivered and coughed unconsciously.

Cai Yan, who was beside him, draped the fur on Cai Yong's back.

"Father, rest early. Even if you don't go to the early morning tomorrow, you have to go to bed early." Cai Yan grabbed the bamboo slip in Cai Yong's hand and wanted to grab it, but Cai Yong held on to it. She didn't even dare to exert herself.After all, she is an unparalleled military commander, and her strength is far beyond ordinary people. If she is not careful, she may hurt her father.

"In such a situation, how can I sleep? The allies led by Yuan Shao are about to attack the city, and the whole of Luoyang will experience a catastrophe. Now even Luoyang is not safe. Where else can they be stable at 703 degrees? Oh day..." Cai Yong sighed, "If I had known this, I would have returned to my hometown. It doesn't matter if my old bone is dead, but it's a pity that it will hurt you, Yan'er."

Cai Yan sat aside and said with a smile, "Father is too pessimistic. That general is not someone who will easily admit defeat. Whether the Allies can break into Luoyang is still up for debate."

Cai Yong smiled bitterly and said, "What if you can't get in? Luoyang has become a troubled place, and it's really impossible to stay in this place."

Just as the two were talking, they heard a slight abnormal noise from the tiles on the roof. The vigilant Cai Yan grabbed a plate and threw it upwards. The masked man in the night clothes fell into the house.

"Who?!" Cai Yan took out the long sword hanging on the wall, and pointed the sword's edge directly at the man in black.

The man in black didn't use force, but took off his mask and said quickly, "Don't get me wrong, Mr. Cai Yong, I have no ill intentions, and visiting late at night is a last resort."

The man in black is a young woman with a popular face and a medium stature. You can't find that kind if you throw it into a crowd.

"Who are you? You don't follow the right path in the middle of the night, come from the roof. If you don't give an explanation to such a villain, I'm afraid it won't make sense." Cai Yan said calmly. .

chapter 589.

The woman with a public face smiled bitterly: "Don't get me wrong, my lord, the little girl is not malicious. As for her identity, the little girl belongs to the intelligence department in the hands of Li Zhongxing, the prefect of Yuzhou, who is in charge of the information circulation in Luoyang. This time, I want to take away Cai Zhonglang, Luoyang. It will soon be affected by the war. My family is worried about Cai Zhonglang's safety, and specially sent someone to inform Cai Zhonglang. The Allied forces will be dispatched the day after tomorrow at the latest, and it will be troublesome if they want to leave."
