Xiliang Iron Ride

Chapter 655 Sound East Strikes West

"Well, pass the order and let the soldiers stick to the city and wait for the host's reinforcements. As long as the reinforcements arrive, the Xiliang army will not be afraid. Don't forget that we are also an invincible army." Xia Houdun shouted.

The people in the city were conquered to the wall by Xia Houdun to defend against the attack of the Xiliang Army. However, these poor people did not go up to the wall without any training. They did not know how to defend. They just stood on the wall stupidly and looked at the boulder thrown by the Xiliang Army, which killed and injured. Under such circumstances Xia Houdun would not care about the life or death of the people and keep collecting the people.

Late at night, Xia Houdun gathered more than a thousand defenders in the city, abandoned the city and left, and all the wounded soldiers stayed in the city.

He has tried his best to resist the Xiliang army for three days, and Cao Cao has sent a letter to him to Jiyin to guard.

Xiahou Dun complained about the failure to return to the East County and cooperate with Cao Zhen to resist the Western Liang Army, but he had just lost Hanoi County, and his advisers also died in the war. There were no bargaining conditions, so he could only obey unconditionally.

The front of the Xiliang Army was in full bloom, and Cao Cao also began to dispatch troops. The soldiers stationed from all over the country were moving towards the direction of Dong County, and the defenders in Dong County reached 30,000. At this time, the number of the Xiliang Army's army was only 40,000. It can be said that the two sides were evenly matched. In order to defend the city, Cao Zhen even put the city The defenders divided 10,000 people out of the city to be stationed, and the city was the momentum of the corner.

The movement in Yanzhou made Jia Rong very satisfied. In the towering palace, Jia Rong was discussing with a group of counselors about attacking Yuzhou. It was not only Yuzhou, but also Nanyang County, a city where the Cao army paid the price of nearly 100,000 people, was also within the scope of Jia Rong's care. If you can capture Yuzhou and Nanyang County in one fell swoop, West When Liang Jun plays against Cao Cao, he will have an absolute advantage, not only in terms of military strength, but also in terms of the number of people.

In the era of cold weapons, war consumes population. It can pull out a team at any time to fight with the enemy. The level of recovery ability also determines the situation of war.

This is also the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Why the strength of a vassal state is measured first of all, the number of people ruled.

Yu Shan rushed back to Yuzhou overnight and began to discuss with Guo Da about defecting to the Xiliang Army. This matter must be done carefully and not to leak any news. Otherwise, Cao Cao noticed a little news, that is, his previous achievements were abandoned. Cao Cao has always trusted his generals, which also led to many generals in Yuzhou. His loyalty to Cao Cao is very high. At this time, as long as Cao Cao orders, there are absolutely many generals who listen to him.

The Xiliang Army captured Hanoi County and the soldiers came to Dong County, which made Cao Cao panic. At the same time, Yu Dan was much more relieved. The stronger the Xiliang Army showed, the easier it was to successfully put the whole Yuzhou into the embrace of the Xiliang Army. Now Yu Dan would rather be a small county magistrate in Liang State than under the rule of Cao. The county guard, a fierce general like Lian Xiahou Dun, was defeated by the Xiliang Army within half a day. He did not have enough confidence in the Yellow Turban Army led by Guo Da.

While Guo Da shocked the attack speed of the Xiliang army, he began to secretly dispatch troops and operated Yuzhou for many years. Although there were Cao Cao's people, under the single plan, he was confident that he would unconsciously give the whole Yuzhou to the Xiliang army.

The defenders everywhere are basically his people. As long as there is an order, the flag on the city is definitely the sword and flag belonging to the Xiliang Army.

Zhao Yun secretly sent 2,000 troops, assisted by Lv Bu, and also explored the way in front of Wang Yue, which was unprecedentedly strong. This lineup, even if there are 20,000 enemy troops, Zhao Yun is confident to defeat it. The main reason is that one thousand of the 2,000 cavalry are composed of lone wolf soldiers, and it is not a problem on the battlefield.

Wang Yue, as the front road of the army, is naturally due diligence, giving full play to his ability to assassinate intelligence. Even if a fly appears on the road ahead, it can be quickly transmitted to the rear.

First of all, Yingchuan County. When 2,000 Xiliang troops appeared under the city, it did cause panic among the people in the city. However, under the appeasement of the generals, the Xiliang army successfully received it. As for the officials in the city, they were secretly detained by Guo Da's order.

Zhang Bang Anmin, Zhao Yun did what he did. The former general of Liang Guo felt for the first time that the war was so smooth, and there was no loss. How comfortable it was to capture a huge county.

Think about how difficult it was to capture a county town in those years. All the weapons were used, and it was difficult to win by attacking day and night.

It is more powerful than explosives. I guess it is majesty, which comes from the majesty of Liang.

The soldiers who subdued people without fighting, the Xiliang army dominated the world, Jia Rong was kind to the people, and finally got the fruits of victory.

The people and businessmen in Yingchuan have not even reacted. A series of policies from Liangguo have been issued. Looking at the neat and killing soldiers on the street, the people feel very comfortable and have no resistance. For many years, the prestige of the Xiliang Army has long been known to everyone, and paper has never been able to wrap the fire. All kinds of deeds related to Jia Rong of the Xiliang Army have long spread all over the world.

After Yingchuan, Chen and a group of other Yuzhou lands were thrown into the arms of the Xiliang Army. All of this was carried out secretly. After the occupation of Yuzhou, the Xiliang Army increased by more than 50,000 troops, all of whom were trained soldiers. With the main generals defecting to the Xiliang Army, their where to go was naturally decided.

The whole state of Yuzhou was occupied in an orderly manner. Jia Rong laughed. Thinking that in those years, Cao Cao attacked Yuzhou, but he paid a lot of price, and finally got Guo Da's investment. After so many years of development in Yuzhou, the people can also call it living and working in peace and contentment, that is, the economic conditions are not good. Previously, he was in Xiliang Bank. Under the attack, the whole Cao army was very bleak under the rule. If it hadn't been for Cao Cao's strong man who broke his wrists and sold resources, I'm afraid Cao's army would have been even more bleak under Cao's army.

Guo Da eradicated his dissidents and secretly detained all the generals and officials loyal to the Cao army, waiting for the final decision of Liangguo.

Naturally, there were generals loyal to Cao Cao who were not found, and the news that Yuzhou defected to the Western Liang Army spread.

However, at this time, the Xiliang army was already under the city of Nanyang County. With the reinforcements sent by Jia Rong again, there were 80,000 people, which surrounded 30% of the outer three floors of Nanyang County.

Cao Cao can't describe his mood in words now. His previous advisers persuaded Guo Da in Yuzhou to be careful. He praised Guo Da with his oath. He thought that Guo Da could defend Yuzhou and resist the Western Liang army. Unexpectedly, behind his back, he replaced the Cao army flag of Yuzhou with the flag of Liangguo, which was huge before and after. The drop made Cao Cao dizzy and fell ill in bed.

Lang Zhong, who heard the news, hurriedly treated him, and then confirmed that it was an angry attack, and he could get better after a little rest.

When the counselors saw that Cao Cao Cao was fine, they were relieved. Yuzhou lost it and lost it. If Cao Cao was ill because of this, Cao's army would be in complete danger.

Some counselors secretly doubt whether Yanzhou also has the spies of the Xiliang Army. This kind of thing will give people a fatal blow anytime and anywhere. The loss of Yuzhou makes the rule of Cao Jun, who originally thought it was solid, become full of loopholes. After he recovered, Cao Cao also became more suspicious and secretly organized people. After inspecting officials from all over the country, once they find something wrong, they will be arrested immediately. For a while, everyone is in danger, and even the counselors are careful not to do anything wrong.

At this time, Cao Cao would rather kill by mistake. The loss of Yuzhou hit him hard. Even the generals and generals and generals in the army changed a batch.

When Guo Da in Yuzhou did not rebel, Yanzhou had no defense line for Yuzhou. Now Yuzhou belongs to the Liang Kingdom, and all defenses need to be rearranged. The equipment of soldiers and horses, as well as the garrison of generals, all need Cao Cao's approval.

In Nanyang County, Li Dian scolded Guo Da and hurriedly strengthened the city defense. When Cao's army attacked Jingzhou before, the moat outside Nanyang County was filled in. The army attacked day and night, and the city wall was full of potholes, which is still faintly visible.

"Sir, now the Xiliang Army is under the city. Is there a good strategy?" Li Dian turned his eyes to Tian Chou. When Cao's army withdrew, he left Cao Chun and Li Dian in the city. There were also counselors, Tian Chou, and there were also 20,000 soldiers to guard against Jingzhou and the Xiliang army of Sili. Unexpectedly, in a blink of an eye, Nanyang County, which was as solid as a golden soup, turned into a lonely city. It was impossible to ask for help from Liu Bei's army, and Yuzhou had already It belongs to Liangguo, and all the disadvantages are approaching Cao's army.

"General, there are 80,000 Xiliang troops outside the city today, and there are only 20,000 defenders in the city. Even if all the young people help defend the city, it is difficult to protect them. The lord wrote before that the Xiliang army has a powerful weapon that can directly open the gate. It can't be defended. Hanoi County is so lost." Tian Chou said slowly, frowning. Originally, he wanted to say that Nanyang County was dead, but he swallowed it again.

"Sir, isn't there a good plan?" Cao Chun asked unwillingly.

"General, the grain and fodder in Nanyang County has always been provided by Yuzhou. Even the hoarded grain and fodder materials are only enough for one month. After a month, the army interrupts the grain for fear that the soldiers will mutiny. At that time, the Xiliang army can get Nanyang County without fighting." Tian Chou continued to say.

Li Dian and Cao Chun sighed. I don't know what to think. The originally good situation was completely broken because of Guo Da's rebellion. It can be said that the efforts of the Cao army over the past few years have all turned into nothing. Nanyang County, which was finally captured, has become a thing in the bag of the Xiliang army. Even if they give up Nanyang County, they have nowhere to escape. Yuzhou is from Liang, and Jingzhou is in front of it. After leaving the city, it will only speed up the speed of extinction.

"Notify the lord of this matter as soon as possible, send fast horses, and divide it into dozens of people. Everyone carries the same information, inform the lord of all the situation in Nanyang, and quietly wait for the lord to make a decision." Tian Chou sighed.
