The end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 110 Siege of Luoyang 2 [Please collect]

According to the plan, the Lion Camp went to Mengjin, the Wolf Xiao Camp went to Yiyang, and Liu Xia led the rest of the headquarters's personal guard to Luoyang.

After coming out of the Hu prison according to the planned route, the lion camp followed the path of the previous Lang Xiao camp to Gong County, then crossed Gong County to Mengjin, and then took Meng Jin. Meng Jin was in the northeast of Luoyang, near the edge of the Yellow River. When the Lion Camp took Meng Jin, he returned to the south and went to Luoyang.

After the Langxiao Camp entered the customs from Hu'ao Pass according to the planned route, it directly crossed Yanshi to Yiyang in the west. Yiyang was located in the southwest of Luoyang. After the Langxiao Camp took Yiyang, it went north to Luoyang.

At this time, the Hu Ben camp was in Yanshi. When Yanshi broke through the city, he marched westward and also waved his army to Luoyang.

Finally, it was Liu Xia's headquarters, that is, Liu Xia's guard regiment, and some logistics personnel totaling 700 or 800 people. First, they went to the Wolf Xiao Battalion. When they arrived in the west of the Yan Division, the two armies separated. The Lang Xiao Battalion marched southwest to Yiyang, while Liu Xia led the people to Luoyang first.

At that time, the four-way army, four or five thousand people gathered outside Luoyang City, and began to occupy Luoyang after a day's rest. As for Mianchi, Yongji, Xin'an, Hanguguan, Lushi, Lingbao and other places in the west of Luoyang, Liu Xia waited to occupy Luoyang before taking care of it.

Once the three cities of Yanshi, Mengjin and Yiyang, they will half surround Luoyang City. Judging from the map, there are four cities in four directions of Luoyang, located in Yanshi in the east, Mengjin in the north, Xin'an in the west, and Yiyang in the south. Now, except Xin'an, the other three cities on all three sides have been listed for the occupation. In the plan, once the three cities are taken down, Luoyang City will be basically surrounded.

The Hulao Pass is still under the care of the third battalion of the Hu Ben Regiment, and the artillery brigade has been quickly following the scouts to the division. The lion camp rushed forward to supply in Gong County and then went to Mengjin. Lang Xiaoying and Liu Xia's headquarters did not stop at Yanshi and rushed directly to Yiyang, but Liu Xia's headquarters stayed in Yanshi for a while.

Xu Shi (from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.) Ten miles from Yanshi City

At this time, the artillery brigade had already arrived at the Hu Ben Regiment camp with the scouts. At that time, Liu Dazhuang, the head of the Hu Ben Regiment, and Niu Yu, the deputy head of the Hu Ben Regiment, came out to greet them in person. This artillery brigade is too important, and this artillery brigade is not subordinate to the Hu Ben Regiment. Therefore, although the captain of the artillery brigade is just a prestige school, Liu Dazhuang did not put on airs.

Now that the artillery brigade is one step late, Liu Xia and the guard regiment also came to Yanshi City. Liu Dazhuang and others all went out to greet them.

"General, why did you come here in person?" Liu Dazhuang held the boxing fist.

Liu Xia said in a low voice, "I originally went directly to Luoyang, but now Yanshi City has not been attacked, so I came to have a look. Yanshi City must be solved early. Now I have dropped the artillery brigade to you. What else do you need now?"

Liu Dazhuang said respectfully, "General, I don't need anything. The general went into the tent and said. After saying that, Liu Dazhuang led Liu Xia and many other generals into the big tent of the Chinese army.

Now it's getting dark. Liu Xia immediately said to the guard beside him, "Go down and rest here tonight, and leave early tomorrow."

"Yes" The Qinwei's voice fell and hurried away.

Lights have been lit everywhere in the camp, and candles have been lit in the camp.

After entering the tent, Liu Xia sat in the main seat, and the other generals sat around.

Liu Xia said in a low voice, "Da Zhuang, let's talk about the specific situation now. Although I also listened to the scouts before, he didn't say it in detail."

Liu Dazhuang said solemnly, "I reported to the general, after arriving at Yanshi this morning, I found that everyone in Yanshi City had known that the Hu Prison Pass had been broken. The gate of the whole Yanshi City was tightly closed, and it was full of archers and could not approach it at will. According to the news collected by the scouts, the fugitive squires in Gong County transmitted the news, so some of the squires in Yanshi City integrated their families and took bows and arrows and knives. Although these people's combat effectiveness is very weak, they belong to the side of defending the city and occupy all the territory. We don't have any siege equipment, and we can't get into it at all.

After Liu Dazhuang finished speaking, Niu Yu was deeply convinced and said, "In the end, the general thought of bombarding the gate with artillery. Once the gate was opened, even if they had 3,000 horses, they would not be afraid."

"I am willing to lead the soldiers of the artillery brigade to attack the city!" Wang Xiaotong immediately said solemnly.

Liu Xia waved his hand and said, "As for the plan to attack Yanshi, Da Zhuang is responsible for it. The general will go to Luoyang early tomorrow morning. As for the task of your artillery, it will be assigned by Da Zhuang.

"Yes"

Liu Dazhuang said coldly, "The general can rest assured to leave. My subordinates will definitely take Yanshicheng tomorrow and go to Luoyang to meet the general."

Liu Xia nodded and said, "I'll give you another day tomorrow, and you must attack Yanshicheng!"

"Yes! I will definitely complete the task!"

----

Guo Gonggong and dozens of imperial guards from Nanjing arrived at Fenshui County when it was about to be dark. At this time, Fenshui County was guarded by Zhang Liang.

When Zhang Liang heard that the messenger came from Nanjing, he immediately opened the gate and went out of the city to greet him in person. The first sentence when Eung Guo saw Zhang Liang's face was: "Where's the marquis? Why don't you come out of town?"

"Marquis?" Zhang Liang took a look at the Duke Guo doubtfully.

Euntie Guo immediately reacted and smiled, "Hahaha, you don't know that now that your general has been appointed as a marquis, our family has come to read the imperial edict to the marquis. Why hasn't the marquis come out now?

Zhang Liang said indifferently, "Fair-in-law, it may take some time for the general to attack Luoyang and hasn't come back yet."

"Attack Luoyang?" Grandpa Guo was a little surprised, but he recovered in a moment. He also said that Liu Xia had migrated tens of thousands of people who returned to Defu. Isn't he just going to take Luoyang? So he said, "When will the general come back?" Our family is the emperor's life. How can we wait? Hurry up and send a message to the marquis and ask him to come back quickly to receive the order.

"This..." Zhang Liang was a little embarrassed. After all, it's time to fight. How can the coach leave when he is in battle? That's a taboo for the military family. If you leave, you are likely to fail in the battle, which will directly lead to the destruction of the army. This is not a trivial matter.

"What? If you are asked to go, you can go. What? Do you still want the imperial edict to wait for him for a little Liu Xia? The little eunuch beside Eunuch Guo shouted angrily at Zhang Liang in a shrill voice.

Although Zhang Liang said he had a good temper and could bear these things, the men behind Zhang Liang did not have such good tolerance. Just now, Zhang Liang was said a few words by Mr. Guo. After all, he was a big shot. Now this little eunuch at the bottom also yells at Zhang Liang so loudly, and also calls Liu Xia's name, which makes those men can't stand it.
