Xiliang Iron Ride

Chapter 332 Siege of the City by the Princes (Continued 1)

"At present, the most important thing is to repel the allied forces of the princes, not to mention that there are Zhang Liao and other generals in the Hu prison. Jia Rong will not succeed so easily." Li Ru really didn't have a good way to comfort Dong Zhuodao.

Dong Zhuo said, "Allied soldiers have appeared in Mengjinguan and Pingjin, and the people in Luoyang City are also unstable. At this critical moment, the virtuous son-in-law must contribute more to the army, with all glory and loss."

Li Ru's body was shocked, and he bowed his head and said, "No!" Dong Zhuo's words brought Li Ru out of the cold palace and became a hot figure.

Becoming Dong Zhuo's sage, Li Ru never thought of betraying and has been working hard for Dong Zhuo's development.

"Master, there is no need to worry. There is Xu Rong guard in Mengjin Pass, which is foolproof. As for Pingjin, it will not be the place with the largest number of troops of princes. As for Yique and other customs in the south of Luyang, it only needs a few hundred troops to guard, and it will be difficult for the princes to move forward." Let's talk about it.

Dong Zhuo said happily, "I have excellent literature, and I don't have to worry about it!" Wen You can deal with military affairs at his discretion, just report it to me afterwards.

Once again, he has been used by Dong Zhuo. Li Ru is also heroic. Some restless generals in the army a few days ago. Li Ru has long been secretly remembered in his heart. Dong Jun's generals who are familiar with Li Ru all know that once Li Ru regains power, it is the bad luck of the powerful generals in the past. Therefore, it is the original general of Dong Jun, no No matter how frustrated Li Ru was, he was so respectful that he didn't dare to neglect him at all.

An imperceptible smile flashed from the corners of Li Ru's mouth.

With the assistance of Li Ru, Dong Zhuo once again returned to a free and comfortable life. Among Dong Jun, Li Ru is an all-round talent, with strategy on the battlefield and governing the army.

Huang Wan, Yang Biao and others have been very close to Dong Zhuo recently, ranking among the three princes. In the court, they were angry with Dong Zhuo. Many officials bowed down to the two on their faces and said bad things behind their backs.

In Luoyang City, Jia Xu sorted out the information from Xianlian Pavilion and analyzed the changes in the situation in Luoyang City. When Jia Rong left, there were 1,200 cavalry and 5,000 infantry in Luoyang City. The princes knocked on the pass, and the Xiliang Army also had to divide troops to assist Dong Jun in guarding the gate.

Nowadays, there are only 1,000 cavalry and 2,000 infantry in the city. Dong Jun has about 6,000 troops. Jia Xu always wants to think about how to guard the checkpoints of Luoyang at the lowest cost. The Xiliang Army is the foundation of Jia Rong, and every cavalry is Jia Rong's painstaking efforts.

The gate of Luoyang is closed, and it is also difficult for Jia Xu to get information from all aspects. Fortunately, Su Shuang's operation of Luoyang is not overnight, and the information is still rolling to Jia Xu, including the restless family in the city.

In the information Dong Zhuo received, there were a lot of information provided by Jia Xu. He killed people with a knife, and Dong Zhuo took on the notoriety. Why not do it? Jia Rong himself had no bad reputation in Luoyang.

The 18-way allied forces are vast and hundreds of thousands, and Dong Zhuo's heart is also raised high. The most unpleasant thing is that there is a family in the city to collude with the coalition. His attitude is that he would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one.

With this information, Jia Xu can predict the next action of the princes in advance.

There are Jiang Yu, Ma Teng and other generals in the city. More importantly, Zhang Xiu also came to Luoyang to help Jia Xu deal with intelligence.

Zhang Xiu is a member of the Lone Wolf Army. His ability to collect intelligence is relatively strong, but it is relatively slow to sort it out. In Luoyang City, he also acts as Jia Xu's hand. Zhang Xiu is quite happy about this. In the Han Dynasty, the status of a literati has always been superior to that of martial arts.

Gao Shun led the trapped camp and 200 cavalry stationed in Hangu Pass. At that time, the army retreated. Jia Rong only needed to guard the Han Valley Pass, which could make the Kanto princes unable to enter. There were Jia Rong's people and horses along the way. Although there were not many, they could play a key role. After all, there were not many standing soldiers in these counties, and food and fodder and other materials had long ago. He was ordered by Dong Zhuo to be requisitioned to Luyang.

The allied forces of the princes began the most fierce attack. The tiger prison was the first to attack, and the ways to attack the city emerged one after another.

Outside the Hu prison pass, the princes' allied forces piled up two big mountains, which not only played the role of monitoring the defenders in the pass, but also covered the attacking soldiers by shooting with the defenders when they attacked the city, which greatly differentiated the attention of the defenders.

Jia Rong was not weak in dealing with the offensive means of the coalition. There were pieces of raw cowhide hanging outside the city, and most of the arrows of the coalition were blocked by cowhide.

Yuan Kui's death was indeed very exciting for Yuan Shao. He rushed to rush cars and ladders in the army day and night, and the surrounding trees were cut down.

For more than ten days in a row, the Hulao Pass was not able to attack, and the initial spirit of the princes' coalition army was also eliminated a lot. Sometimes the princes attacked the city just to make Yuan Shao feel at ease. The death of the bottom soldiers was taken for granted in the eyes of the princes. For the future of the Han Dynasty, soldiers should be sacrificed, but one by one, the soldiers represented But it is the strength of the princes.

No prince is stupid, just like Sun Jian. No matter how Yuan Shao persuades him, he only symbolically sent hundreds of soldiers to participate in the battle.

Although the wall of Hu prison is thick, Jia Rong also has to deal with it carefully. In order to prevent the princes from digging tunnels into the city, the urn is buried in the ground one by one, and the soldiers above listen carefully. As long as there is any movement, it will be notified to the general as soon as possible.

There is a lot of oil piled up in the pass. In ancient times, boiling oil was an effective way to prevent soldiers from attacking the city. The boiling oil that fell from the sky was enough to make the siege soldiers crack. In Luyang City, it unconditionally supported Jia Rong's action in the Hu prison, and consumables such as arrows, knives and guns were continuously transported.

The soldiers of the vassal army in Guanwai have become the target of the Xiliang army to practice bowing, especially the group of vassal soldiers on Tushan. The archery of the Xiliang army soldiers is progressing rapidly, which is inseparable from their sacrifice. The prestige of the divine arrow Lv Bu is widely spread among the soldiers of the two armies. As long as Lv Bu appears in the city, the allied soldiers in Tushan have to Climb down honestly.

Compared with Lv Bu, Hao Meng and Cao Feng, who are known as unparalleled archery, are much inferior.

In the vassal army, Yuan Shao sat in the upper position with a gloomy face. In terms of strength, the vassals are more than ten times that of the garrison in Guannei, but in terms of combat ability, it is not as good as the cavalry of the Xiliang Army.

Just yesterday, Zhao Yun, Lv Buhua, Zhang Liao and other generals came out. The cavalry came and killed the Chinese army directly. The allied soldiers did not dare to come forward to stop them and were defeated. At the critical moment, if Gongsun Zan had not led Bai Mayi to help, the losses of the vassals would have been even greater.

The princes outside the customs continue to attack, and the defenders in the customs have become unprecedentedly united. There are cases of Jia Rong treating and condolences for the wounded soldiers. The relationship between the Xiliang Army and Dong Jun and the Bingzhou Army is no longer so tense. The soldiers of the two sides will sit and chat together in their spare time. After all, this is just a feud between the upper generals. Maybe the soldiers have long forgotten what Ding Yuan looks like.

After receiving Dong Zhuo's order, Li Su and Zhang Liao fully cooperated with Jia Rong.

"In your opinion, when can the tiger prison be broken?" Yuan Shao sat in the upper position with a gloomy face and said.

As the leader of the vassal army, 100,000 people can't attack the tiger prison for half a month, and their faces are always a little hung up. What's more, he still has family hatred. Yuan Kui's kindness to him is like a movie in Yuan Shao's mind every night.

Seeing that no one answered in the account for a long time, Cao Cao hugged his fist and said, "My lord, there is not only one way to Luyang. Our army can divide most of our troops to attack Pingjin or Mengjin. As long as one of these two levels is broken, the army can fight under the city of Luyang. There are eight passes around Luoyang. Dong Zhuo and Jia Rongshi It is bound to divide the troops to guard. Luoyang is actually an empty city. At that time, as soon as the army arrived, Luoyang was at your fingertips.

"At that time, with the cooperation of the family in the city, Dong Zhuo and other rebellious ministers in Luoyang City will be over. As soon as Luoyang is broken, the guard of the tiger prison will lose the support of food and fodder weapons, and will definitely flee in confusion." Cao Cao talked about the money, creating a large fantasy space for the princes in the account. The purpose of the princes' coalition was to attack Luyang.

Cao Cao's words won the approval of many princes in the account, but Yuan Shao still sat on the throne of the alliance leader with an unhappy face. Cao Cao's words were very reasonable, but Pingjin and Meng Jin said that they took a path to enter Luoyang. There was no open and uprightness from the tiger prison. The coalition wanted the Qing king to kill the treacherous slums. Naturally, the more legitimate the better.

"Our army has been attacking for many days, and I'm afraid the soldiers in the customs are already exhausted. You don't need to be discouraged. You will fight the tiger prison in the next day." Yuan Shao comforted.

Cao Cao sighed and turned his eyes to other places. Since ancient times, he became a king and defeated bandits. Others will not care how you win. They will only remember that you are a winner. Yuan Shao loves false fame so much that he disdains to adopt Cao Cao's strategy. Growing up together, Yuan Shao will certainly not escape Cao Cao's eyes.

"Tomorrow, the army will attack the Hu Prison Pass. You need to work together and don't slack off." Yuan Shao's voice suddenly increased by eight degrees, which shocked the princes in the tent.

Yuan Shu's eyes on the account turned and said, "In fact, our army does not have to use the battle of climbing the city. It can also enter the city from the underground."

Yuan Shao looked at Yuan Shu in surprise and said in surprise, "Is there a good strategy for the highway?"

Seeing that the princes in the account turned their eyes to himself, Yuan Shu felt very satisfied. He liked the feeling of being valued very much.

"We can attack the city while digging a tunnel to the barrier, so that we can unknowingly enter the barrier, and the inside and outside will be broken."

The princes heard and talked about it. If they can become a prince, they are not ordinary people. They are all extraordinary minds and cities. Yuan Shu's words are very straightforward, that is, to maximize the advantage of manpower, so that the soldiers at the gate have no time to take care of the city, and attack the tiger prison under the cooperation between the outside.

"Not only that, the ladder and wells should also be covered together. The Chinese army only needs to leave General Gongsun's white horse Yicong." Yuan Shao added.

Gongsun Zan is so happy. The siege of the city consumes a lot to the soldiers. He doesn't want to watch his good sons go to death. These soldiers are the biggest support for the princes to compete for fame and profit after attacking Luyang. Although Gongsun Zan is rough and bold, he is actually careful. The city is quite deep, and on the surface is Yuan Shao. He is respectful, but in fact, he doesn't care about this alliance leader. If 100,000 troops attack a small tiger prison, they can't win.

I haven't finished writing. I have to use 'continue'. I'm sorry.
