Chapter 866: Knocking on Chang'an (13)
The clouds were thick, and the sky was overcast, as if the whole sky was about to fall, and it made people's chests and hearts feel uncomfortable.
"What? That person is gone? Why don't you see it, didn't you wait to watch it? What do you look at Lao Tzu? Yes? Early in the morning, Li Wei heard that Zhao Wen had disappeared when he was approaching Chang'an, and he couldn't help but angrily take the horsewhip and whip the military marquis who was in charge of keeping an eye several times.
The military marquis didn't dare to dodge, nor did he dare to shout pain, so he resisted stiffly, and he didn't even dare to wipe the blood left on his forehead that was smoky. The military marquis was also helpless, and last night he saw that Zhao Wen sleeping with his head covered in the carriage, but when he looked at it again the next day, it was already empty......
Zhao Wen disappeared out of nowhere, just like he appeared inexplicably.
Li Dao whipped a few times, and his anger disappeared a little, and he knew that even if he cut this military marquis with a thousand knives now, it would be impossible for Zhao Wen to reappear, so he yelled at the military marquis: "Useless waste, get out of Lao Tzu!" ”
Guo Yan frowned and said, "As soon as this person leaves...... Excuse me......"
In addition to bringing them a large amount of grain and grass, Zhao Wen also told them some about the virtual and real arrangements of Chang'an, of course, these situations also helped Li Dao and Guo Yan successfully attack the city gate of Chang'an, and began to compete for the city in Chang'an City, and gradually approached the imperial city.
But now that Zhao Wen is gone, he will also bring the reality of Li Dao and Guo Yan to the people in Chang'an. They are now almost a long-distance rush to attack, in fact, whether it is the physical strength of the soldiers or the follow-up reinforcements, it is a shortcoming, once the momentum of the attack is hindered, the breath between the soldiers is relaxed, it is a precursor to defeat!
What to do?
At this point, it is definitely impossible to retreat.
But if the attack on the imperial city continues according to the original plan, how will the defenders of those mausoleums behind their own butts resist the attack?
Although Zhao Wen repeatedly patted his chest and swore that the defenders of those tombs were under the control of the Hongnong Yang clan and would not cross Weishui, so that Li Dao and Guo Yan and others could rest assured, and he also said that he would not help Li Dao and others at the critical moment, etc., but now that even Zhao Wen himself has disappeared, how can Li Dao and Guo Yan and others believe in the so-called guarantees before?
If Zhao Wen was still in the army, Li Dao and Guo Yan would still feel a little relieved in their hearts, but in the current situation, it seems that yesterday's allies are no longer so reliable, and the army near Weishui Lingyi can no longer be their help, and it is very likely that they will become their opponents......
"Weishui Bridge!" Guo Yan suddenly spoke.
In fact, the terrain of Chang'an is relatively familiar to Li Dao and Guo Yan. Weiyang Palace and Changle Palace are on the Longshouyuan Heights in the south of Chang'an City, and it may not be so easy to attack the Imperial City, and Li Dao and Guo Yan are not sure how long they will be able to take the gates of the Imperial City.
And the north-south traffic across Weishui, the passage that can be passed by the soldiers of Lingyi is a bridge and a beach. The bridge is the Weishui Bridge in the south of Maoling, and the tidal flat is the Lingtan ferry in the bully place, the ferry is good to say, as long as some strong bows and crossbows are erected on the tidal flats, the soldiers who try to cross the river can not eat and walk, but only the Weishui stone bridge on the south side of Maoling is wide and solid, even if Li Dao and Guo Yan want to destroy, they can't start.
And if the Weishui Bridge cannot be blocked, it is equivalent to the possibility that the coalition forces of Li Dao and Guo Yan and others may fall into the situation of being attacked by the north and the south!
Send soldiers to the south side of the Weishui Bridge to contain it?
Not very realistic.
If there are fewer troops, it is not of much use at all, but if there are too many divisions, Chang'an City cannot be controlled, let alone attack the imperial city, and in the end it will not be a failure?
So what to do?
Fan Chou led the vanguard to capture the gate of Chang'an, Hu Zhen with follow-up reinforcements should have rushed to Chang'an, if according to the original plan, Li Dao and Guo Yan will rush to Chang'an City with soldiers and horses today at the latest, participate in the attack, and complete the final encirclement of the imperial city......
Although it is said that the plan can never catch up with the changes, Li Dao and Guo Yan are not very talented and wise people, and after they suddenly got a large amount of military rations and Xiliang stragglers, they suddenly swelled up and did not thoroughly think about the backup plan of attacking Chang'an.
Now when they suddenly find themselves faced with a difficult choice, the two of them can't help but be a little confused, and they can't think of anything to do for a while......
"Two generals...... "From the rear of the military column, one person with a few soldiers rode up on horseback, and said with a smile, "...... Why did the ranks slow down, but what did not happen? ”
"Wenhe!" Li Dao was immediately overjoyed, laughed and said, "Why are you here?" Ahh ”
Jia Xu said with a faint smile: "Jia Mou only arrived last night, and when he saw that the two generals were struggling on the road, he didn't let the soldiers disturb him...... What's the matter, why don't you enter Chang'an quickly? ”
"This ......" Li Dao was slightly embarrassed.
The plan to attack Chang'an did not involve Jia Xu, it was formulated by the two of them and Zhang Wen, and the intention to squeeze out Jia Xu before was also because it was found that Jia Xu's influence in the Xiliang army was stronger than they seemed to be, and a letter could make Hu Xu change his banner, if Jia Xu was allowed to develop again, the two of them would be unable to do anything when Jia Xu was hollowed out that day.
Therefore, at that time, Li Dao and Guo Yan consciously didn't want Jia Xu to participate, but now that Jia Xu made a plan, there is a problem......
Wen He ...... This is like this......" Guo Yan saw Li Wei's embarrassed face, so he took over the conversation, explained to Jia Xu, and then said, "...... Wen He has a good plan, if it is a big event, Guo Mou, even if he does not want his own official position, he must give Wen He a bright future! ”
"That's right! I have to give Wen He a title of marquis! Li Dao also patted his chest on the side.
Jia Xu shook his head slightly and said: "The two generals don't have to be like this, this is a life-saving plan, what is the merit?" Besides, Jia's heart is not above the court, he only wishes to return to his hometown safely, and as for the official marquis, don't ...... it."
Li Dao and Guo Yan glanced at each other, and then hurriedly said, "...... So, do you need brocade clothes to return home? After taking Chang'an, gold, silver, jewelry, all kinds of treasures, Wenhe can pick up ......"
"Huh...... It's good to be ...... like this" Jia Xu smiled slightly, and finally nodded and was willing to accept it, Li Dao and Guo Yanfang breathed a sigh of relief. In the eyes of Li Wei and Guo Yan, if Jia Xu doesn't want anything, then they are really not at ease with the strategy that Jia Xu said, and now that the interests are tied together, this can make Li Wei and Guo Yan feel at ease.
"But it's just Weishui Qiao'er......" Jia Xu said with a smile, but there was a downright coldness between his smiles, "...... What's so hard about that? The two generals can do this and that......"
