Royal Road

Chapter 288: Soldier

On November 6, just five days after the solar eclipse, the people of Luoyang, who were still in shock, discovered that the omen had come true in front of them. The Huns and Han State dispatched more than a dozen generals including Qin Wang Liu Yao, General Hu Yanyi, General Anton Shile, and 60,000 troops to attack Luoyang!

This time Liu Yuan can be considered as a sufficient cost. Among the 60,000 elite soldiers, there are 40,000 soldiers! People were unsure, but they were suddenly attacked by the enemy, and the counties of Henan prefecture surrendered. Henan Yin Liu Moli died in battle, the defenders were scattered, and Yique was broken!

In just five days, this army came under Luoyang City like a broken bamboo. With the natural dangers of the Yellow River, the emperor's city in the capital of Baguan, now except for the eight thousand soldiers in the city, and the tall and wide walls, there is no danger to rely on!

Riding on the horse, Shi Le looked at the majestic city in front of him, and let out a sigh in his heart. When he was young, he went to Luoyang for business with his father. Outside the palace, the huge copper camel looked south, and the imperial road was more than ten feet wide. Just standing on the copper camel street, the splendor and beauty of the entire Luoyang city was fully visible.

This impossible emperor's capital city is now under his blade.

The horse neighed in his ears, and the camp tents behind him. Even the air was full of the smell of rust and blood. They have already arrived here, breaking the city, killing the emperor, and establishing a worldless meritorious service!

Short of breath, Shi Le squinted his eyes and looked at the tall ancient city wall, showing greed.

"Shi Le!"

A voice rang from behind, and Shi Le suddenly woke up, turned around and clasped his fists: "Your Highness!"

Liu Zhen's eyes flashed with the same light as Shi Le. He raised the whip in his hand and ordered loudly: "Lead your striker and attack first!"

"The final order!" Shi Le deserved it simply, but his expression was already darker.

When he first came to Han, there were few major generals and he had no choice but to rely on Wang Mi. But the other party came from a noble family and was arrogant and rude. In fact, he didn't think much of his own Jiehu. Before staying in Yongzhou, it was also to stay away from Wang Mi and expand the team. Those who are miscellaneous, vagrants and defeated generals are the ones who can be used for him. Unexpectedly, many tribes were taken down, and most of the remnants gathered up were awarded by Liu Zhen to the effective Di Ren Pu Hong. Isn't Shi Le angry? But all the emotions are suppressed in the belly.

He has not yet had the confidence to disobey these Huns nobles. However, it is an indisputable fact that Liu Yao valued him more and more. It is better to vote for Liu Yao than Wang Mi. As long as he builds more meritorious services, no matter how big he is, one day he will be able to lead soldiers out like Wang Mi. Once there is a chance to attack states and counties, wouldn't it be easy to hold tens of thousands of troops again to gallop one side? At that time, who would dare to underestimate his origin!

The sharp eyes of an eagle fell on the distant city. Shi Le urged his mount, took his pro-fighter and rushed towards Luoyang City!

"Where are the reinforcements?!" In the Luoyang Palace, the young emperor jumped into a rage, even his voice changed!

Five days! In just five days, all the gates guarding Luoyang were ripped apart like paper. The loyal, all died in martyrdom. But it is more of a cowardly villain sitting on the ground and begging for mercy! The 20,000 horses stationed in Henan County collapsed without stopping for a day. It's fine now, except for the eight thousand soldiers in the city, no one is available to him!

Where are Gou Xi's soldiers and horses? Shan Jian's? Where's Wang Cheng? Where's Sun Li? Where's Liang Feng and Liang Zixi? !

Is there not a loyal minister in a great country? !

Under the order, all the faces are as earthy. Who wants to be blocked in the city by these barbarians? It's not that the emperor was stubborn and let them miss the chance to escape!

Wang Yanqiang supported: "Your Majesty, it is really the Xiongnu who came too fast to be defensive. As long as General Gou gets the news, he will send troops there. There is also Bingzhou, separated by a mountain, Liang Zixi can also dispatch troops and generals. Come for help! If the state soldier is not Xianbei Huqi, he will be able to break the siege of Luoyang. As long as your Majesty stays in the city and resists for a few days..."

His words are not without reason. Sending troops from the Shangdang to Taihangxing, you can reach Luoyang in one day. Once the conjoined states send troops, the situation will change immediately. And can a big city like Luoyang fail to hold it for ten and a half months?

After taking a deep breath, the little emperor managed to calm down, and said, "Assemble the army and fight against the enemy..."

"Your Majesty!" someone has already yelled, "Beware of the palace, if the city breaks..."

Before he finished speaking, he knew that he had made a mistake and shut up quickly. The little emperor was so angry that he clenched his fists, but did not say anything again. Yes, there are several walls in Luoyang City, even if the outer city is breached, there is still an inner city. If the inner city can't be defended, isn't there still the golden city of Jinyong?

At the thought of possibly fleeing to Jinyong City, which had been trapped to death for an unknown number of clan families, the little emperor felt a chill on his back. No, he must not fall to such a point, even if the imperial driver conquered himself, he must keep the enemy out of the inner city! Didn't Sima Yi take Huidi out of the city to meet Sima Ying? As long as he is there, those soldiers can desperately protect them!

"Fayu stunned to the states and counties, dispatch troops to rescue!" Finally, the little emperor said sharply, "Before the reinforcements arrive, gather the young people in the city and hold on to the city!"

However, the young emperor did not know at this moment, and the reinforcements he was looking forward to were also in trouble. Wang Mi, who had just disappeared not long ago, raised his troops again and attacked Xingyang all the way, cutting off Gou Xi's path back to Luoyang. There was Wang Mi's 30,000 army before, and Cao Yi brought trouble to Qing and Yan two states. Gou Xi immediately fell into a desperate battle.

And Bingzhou also ushered in the long-planned enemy early.

"The Xiongnu occupied the entrances of Taihangxing, Baixing, Jingxing, etc., and besieged Huguan." When the latest military information came from the Shangdang, the faces of people in Jinyang were not very good-looking.

While leading the troops to attack Luoyang, the Huns and horses who were originally stationed on the front line of Luze, staring at them, immediately took action. Liu Yuan did not underestimate the meaning of merging the state, but on the basis of the original 20,000 soldiers, another 10,000 cavalry was added, and 30,000 troops entered the Shangdang! From the perspective of the Hong Kong Economic Journal, the combat power of this group of soldiers and horses cannot be underestimated. What is even more difficult is that they did not plan to attack the city, but divided their troops to defend a few roads.

In this way, the situation couldn't be more obvious. The other party had made up his mind to prevent the Bingzhou soldiers from going south and assist Luoyang. If you don't pass the Xingdao, it will take ten and a half days to bypass the Taihang Mountain. At that time, it will be a problem whether Luoyang City can be held. Even if the troops were deployed from Yecheng, it would take the same amount of time. What's more, Yecheng's garrison is insufficient. If he sends troops rashly, maybe even Wei Jun will be thrown away.

How to do? Didn't you save Luoyang?

If you don't care about Luoyang City, and the little emperor in the city. With a mere 30,000 soldiers and horses, it is impossible to shake the Shangdang. Just shutting down and guarding the city is enough to consume the enemy's food and grass. But in this way, the trust of the court will be completely lost, even pointed out by Wanfu. In places like Binzhou, Liang Feng, the governor of history, was appointed by the emperor. Who else is willing to vote for such a betrayal?

But if they are saved, they are probably facing the Xiongnu army that is ready to go. This battle might be even more dangerous than the previous fight against Wang Jun. It may even damage the strength that Binzhou has finally accumulated. When they rescue Luoyang and the Huns attack again, how will they be prepared?

Seven or eight pairs of eyes fell on Liang Feng. This is not a decision other aides can make. To fight or not to fight, only in his words.

"Send troops! Defeat the enemy and rescue Luoyang!" Liang Feng said directly without hesitation.

Others will consider the current situation, consider the interests, and even privately hope that the troublesome emperor will die at the hands of the Huns. But Liang Feng is no one else. In Luoyang City, there are not only emperors and ministers, but also hundreds of thousands of innocent people! If he can send troops to rescue, he will naturally.

As soon as this remark came out, the depressive atmosphere in the room became loose. Perhaps the ruthless hero is easier to achieve hegemony, but everyone initially followed Liang Feng because he had a heart to save the world.

The lord has made a decision, the following is just a tactical issue. Zhang Bin nodded and said: "This time the enemy divided the troops into several lanes. It seems that there is an opportunity to take advantage of it, but it is actually a way to lure the enemy. If you really want to defeat them one by one, I'm afraid they will encounter cavalry ambush."

The Shangdang altogether is such a big place, and several Xingdao are still very close. As long as you hold a point, you can fully use the mobility of the cavalry to attack the combined state soldiers and horses. However, the number of cavalry in the Union State was insufficient, and it was really difficult to effectively stop the opponent's movements.

On the side, Yi Yan said coldly: "This method is more than just to lure the enemy. As long as you stick to the camp and block the road to go, you can put our army in a dilemma. The enemy will be cautious and cunning with his troops, unlike the pseudo-Chinese he encountered in the past. Soldiers and horses."

Their ultimate goal is to go to Luoyang to resolve the crisis of the Huns approaching the city. However, the enemy troops divided their forces and guarded the main road to Luoyang. No matter where you want to pass, you still have to fight a battle, and you must solve the enemy as soon as possible. This created great psychological pressure on the Bingzhou soldiers and horses. Once you make a mistake, the consequences will be disastrous.

"This kind of good-planners are bound to plan again. It's better to do the opposite." Zhang Bin has already heard the meaning of Yi Yan's words.

"It's okay to pretend to lie and lure the enemy into battle." Yi Yan's answer was even more straightforward.

In a few words, the general direction is determined. However, more detailed tactics need to be studied carefully.

"In this battle, Bo Yuan is the commander, and Meng Sun is the staff member. Write a letter to the Shangdang, tell the ancestors of the history, prepare to send troops!" Liang Feng did not hesitate to make a decision.

Following this order, Bingzhou is also like a beast waking up from a deep sleep, trembling with energy, and waiting for it!
