Chapter 418: Hauge wants to escape
In the afternoon, several scout teams returned to the Dingjun Mountain camp one after another, and hurriedly reported to Wang Shangli, the general of the Chinese army, the movements of the Qing army.
In addition to the four righteous sons under Zhang Xianzhong, there are many generals, among which Wang Shangli, the governor of the Chinese army, Wang Dingguo, the former military governor, Feng Shuangli, the governor of the left army, and Zhang Hualong, the governor of the right army, are respected.
This time the army went out of Sichuan, in addition to the four kings, among the five major governors, Wang Shangli and Wang Dingguo also went out with the army, and the remaining three people were Yan Ximing with the right minister, Shangshu Wang Guolin, Jiang Dingzhen, Gong Wanjing and others governed Shuzhong.
Wang Shangli got the scout's report, first let the scout continue to investigate, and then hurried to the big tent to meet Zhang Xianzhong.
In the big tent, Zhang Xianzhong listened attentively to the detailed information from the scouts relayed by Wang Shangli, and said with joy on his face: "Haoge has begun to kill horses, and the food for the Qing soldiers will be exhausted!" ”
"Chen originally thought that the Qing army's military rations would be able to last for ten days, but he didn't expect it to run out so quickly, which was really unexpected, but the Qing soldiers began to kill horses, which is indeed good news, as long as he waits for some time, when his war horses are almost killed, the opportunity to send troops will come."
Zhang Xianzhong paced back and forth with some excitement, he had lived in Dingjun Mountain for more than two months, and the victory opportunity he had been waiting for was finally approaching, he was silent in thought, and he had realized that the opportunity to attack Haoge was about to ripen.
"Long live, the king of Funan sent General Wang over to report something important." At this time, the pro-army guards outside the big tent suddenly reported.
Wang Fuchen is the deputy general sent by Zhang Xianzhong to Zhang Wenxiu, responsible for the defense of Yangxian, the two cooperated properly, and blocked Meng Qiaofang under the city for nearly two months, and Yangxian has always been impregnable, but as a deputy general, defending Yangxian is the first priority, why did he suddenly run to Dingjun Mountain.
Zhang Xianzhong was unhappy for a while, after all, now is a critical moment, if he loses Yangxian because of carelessness, let the Qing army open the passage into Shu and obtain the grain and grass in Yangxian, then Zhang Xianzhong will sit down.
"Let him in." Zhang Xianzhong asked Wang Shangli to stand aside, and then commanded in a cold voice.
A moment later, one of the warriors came into the tent and bowed, saying, "Long live the minister." ”
"You don't stay in Yangxian, what are you doing in Dingjun Mountain? If something happens to Yangxian, I can't spare you. ”
Wang Fuchen heard Zhang Xianzhong's words, his face was a little frightened, the emperor's temper was not good, this is a well-known thing in the Great Western Army, he hurriedly explained: "Long live, the minister came to Dingjun Mountain, and he was really ordered by the king of Funan, and there is an important military report." ”
"Oh?" Zhang Xianzhong's expression softened slightly, "You say, what is it is more important than guarding Yangxian." ”
Wang Fuchen hurriedly replied: "Long live Hui, it seems that Meng Qiaofang has plans to withdraw from Yangxian, and the Qing soldiers outside Yangxian have begun to pack up. King Funan thought that Haoge was afraid that he was going to run away, so he asked his ministers to inform Long live. ”
"What?" Zhang Xianzhong stood up suddenly, pondered for a while, and then said: "This Haoge is not carried away, he underestimated him before. At this time, the Qing soldiers still have the strength to fight, and it is the best time to withdraw the army. ”
"Hooray, so what do we do now?" Wang Shangli on the side asked.
"Hmph~" Zhang Xianzhong snorted coldly, stood with his hands in his hands, and sneered: "He Haoge wants to retreat to Guanzhong like this, but he doesn't take me too seriously, when I dominate the world, he is still outside the Guanqing." Ordered Wudu Mountain, divided 20,000 troops to immediately go south, seize the entrance of Lianyun Road and Baochuan Road, and prevent Haoge from fleeing north. ”
If the Qing army wanted to return north to Guanzhong, there were only two passages near Baocheng to go, and only Wudu Mountain was in the northwest direction of these two passages for several strongholds of the Western Army.
There are 40,000 western troops in Wudu Mountain, more than Yangxian, and the reason why Zhang Xianzhong is so arranged is because Wudu Mountain is cleverly located, which can not only affect Chencang Road and Qishan Road, but also the location from Baocheng is just right, which does not make the Qing soldiers feel threatened, but can quickly kill Baocheng and seal the entire pocket.
After Wang Shangli listened, he immediately saluted, and arranged for a fast horse to send a message to Wudu Mountain, Zhang Xianzhong immediately looked at Wang Fuchen, "You return to Yangxian immediately, once Meng Qiaofang retreats in the direction of Baocheng, immediately wave his army to cover up, but don't chase too quickly, so as not to be raided by the Qing cavalry." ”
"The minister knows."
Zhang Xianzhong waved his hand, "You stand down~"
After Wang Fuchen left, Zhang Xianzhong instructed the guards of the pro-army, beat the drums and gather the generals, prepare to discuss, and send troops together from each stronghold to pursue and kill Haoge on the whole line.
For a time, the land of Hanzhong, the various strongholds of the Great Western Army, began to prepare, the Western Army and the Qing soldiers fought fiercely for half a year, and a battle that decided the fate of both sides was about to start in the land of Hanzhong.
Zhang Xianzhong initially just wanted to occupy the land of Hanzhong, and then Xu Tu went north to enter Guanzhong, but unexpectedly fell into a war that lasted for half a year, which made the Western Army come back a lot, and the accumulation of three years of operating Sichuan and Shu consumed most of it.
On Wudu Mountain, since Zhang Dingguo robbed Haoge's grain and grass, the Qing soldiers no longer took the Chencang Road, nor did they send troops to attack Wudu Mountain, as if there was no Western Army at all in Wudu Mountain, and in the past two months, the Western Army basically did not even see the Qing Army.
For Haoge, Wudu Mountain is not easy to attack firstly, and secondly, since he has given up taking the Chencang Road, there is no point in fighting Wudu Mountain.
Zhang Xianzhong's order was transmitted to the Western Army camp in Wudu Mountain, and Zhang Kewang knew that his talent was not in attacking the city, but in strategizing and managing the place, so he immediately asked Zhang Dingguo to lead 20,000 Western Army to complete the task of cutting off Lianyun Road and Baochuan Road.
In the night, there was a sound of running footsteps on the mountain road, and a well-equipped western army was running along the mountain road, the swords in their hands shining under the moonlight, emitting a shining cold light, and the armor on their bodies made a loud noise as they ran.
This mountain road is a trail that leads from Wudu Mountain to the north of Baocheng, and goes south along the Baoshui River valley to Baocheng directly.
The southern section of Lianyun Road and Baochuan Road is the Baoshui River Valley, so as long as Zhang Dingguo controls the Jitou Pass in the north of Baocheng, he controls Lianyun Road and Baochuan Road.
In order to prevent being raided by the Qing cavalry, Zhang Dingguo walked a very narrow mountain road, he led 500 cavalry in front, a large group of infantry in the rear, and the cavalry could not let go of galloping on the mountain road, so the speed was basically the same as that of the infantry.
The team hovered over the mountain road, like a big python winding around the mountain, both sides of the mountain road were withered yellow weeds, and there were large patches of snow on the mountain in the distance that had not melted, and the bare branches were full of crystal icicles. \u000bZhang Dingguo's golden helmet and golden armor marched in front of the team, looked at the surrounding terrain, and immediately asked in a loud voice, "Where are you going?" \u000b A soldier hurriedly unfolded the map, looked at it, then looked up at the stars and the sky, and replied: "Your Highness, in terms of foot distance and time, you should arrive at Qingqiao Post first, and there are still about twenty miles ahead, which is Jitou Pass." ”
Zhang Dingguo nodded, and immediately ordered the army to rest on the spot, and sent scouts to investigate.
At dawn, the army set off again, but after a few miles, two sentinels rushed in front, and in front of Zhang Dingguo, they knelt down on one knee and said: "Your Highness, outside the Jitou Pass, tens of thousands of Qing soldiers have gathered. ”
