Chapter 795: The Coalition Army is Coming
Chapter 795: The coalition forces are coming
The city of Hanyang was broken, Cui Zhuo knew that there was no hope, and led the remnants of the soldiers to desperately withdraw from the north gate, and the group fled in embarrassment. The goal of the Dingguo army is to occupy Hanyang City, and Cui Zhuo has little interest in it, after taking Hanyang, the first thing Zhao Yougong did was to plant a sun and moon gossip flag at the head of Hanyang City, with a red background, and eight directions around the sun and moon gossip, this kind of flag is the banner of the ancient Goryeo Jin Dynasty, which is very different from the Taiji flag of later generations. Raising the Sun and Moon Bagua Banner is also to prepare for the unification of the original Silla and Baekje forces, and most of the people south of the Han River are the remnants of Silla and Baekje, and the forces are complicated, if these people are recruited in the name of the Jeongkok Army, these people may not be willing to surrender, but it is much more convenient to let Kim Tae-hee do this as the queen of Goryeo under the Sun and Moon Bagua Banner. Kim Tae-hee's biggest role lies in this, her identity is a sharp weapon, which is more effective than thousands of troops when used well.
Kim Tae-hee couldn't say anything about Zhao Yougong's arrangement, from the day she went to Nanpu City, she knew that there would be such a day, but she didn't expect this day to come so quickly, occupying the Han River, with Zhao Yougong's means and the combat power of the Dingguo Army, half of Goryeo can no longer be saved. Looking at the gunpowder smoke that still did not disperse in Hanyang City, Kim Tae-hee had mixed feelings in his heart, the people of Hanyang City had a sad face, but those whitewater soldiers and civilians were smiling.
Cho Yougong came behind Kim Tae-hee, stretched out his arms and hugged the weak beauty in his arms, Kim Tae-hee was unhappy, of course he understood, but did Kim Tae-hee have any other choice? Touching the woman's smooth wrist, he smiled faintly, "Princess." In the future, you will have to bear the burden of the queen of Goryeo. There are many large and small forces south of the Han River. You'll have to put some thought into it. ”
"Hmm" The voice was like a night whisper, revealing a bit of resentment, Kim Tae-hee didn't like this queen's identity at all, because in this position, it was inevitable to kill more, and there were so many forces south of the Han River, and it was rare to meet each other.
Let's not mention the matter of Hanyang City for the time being, just talk about Cui Zhuo. He led the remnants of the army all the way to the north, and finally came to the territory of Wenshan, at this time Cui Zhuo had a feeling that the world was big but there was nowhere to stay. thinks that he Cui Zhuo was born in a famous family and is full of talent, but now he has ended up with a lost dog. Cui Zhuo didn't think about surrendering to the Dingguo Army, but he also had his own scruples, even if he surrendered, would Kim Tae-hee and the Tiger Head Army be able to tolerate him? What's more, the Dingguo Army came from afar, and could it really dominate Goryeo, and even withstand the counterattack of Liaodong? Everything is unknown. At least Cui Zhuo felt that the final Dingguo army was likely not to win, because the strongest force in Goryeo still belonged to the royal capital Li Ziqian. and Wang Bengu of Xichuan City, these two people have a large army, plus the support of Liaodong, they will definitely block the Han people.
After thinking about it for a long time, Cui Zhuo still decided to go to Pyongyang, the royal capital, compared to Wang Bengu, Li Ziqian seems to have a farther vision and a much broader mind.
After the end of the Hanyang War, the Dingguo Army was busy recuperating, but Li Ziqian didn't want to see this situation, so in order to be on the safe side, he also repaired a letter and sent it to Zhenhai Mansion in Liaodong. At this time, Murong Fu was in Zhenhai Mansion, because Yelu Dashi's heavy troops were gathered in the northeast of Xijin Mansion, Yelu Sha was defending the city and refusing to fight, the two sides were each other's horns, and the Liaodong Coalition Army was neither advancing nor retreating. Unable to think of any clever plan for a while, Murong Fu returned to his residence first like Wanyan Zongwang. Murong Fu already had a preliminary plan, and he wanted to discuss it with Wanyan Zongwang after refining it, but a letter from Li Ziqian completely disrupted his plan. Looking at the letter in his hand, Murong Fu's eyes almost didn't pop out, although he knew that Zhao Yougong's soldiers and horses could fight, but the development of the situation in Goryeo was still too unexpected. Zhao someone actually connected Tianwangzhai, Chuncheon, Lucheon and Hanyang in half a month, especially Hanyang, which is comparable to the royal capital Pyongyang City, Goryeo Jiancheng, the city is modeled after the Tang Dynasty architecture, ordinary people can't beat it at all. It is expected that the opening of the situation by the Dingguo army will be at least the end of February, who would have thought that the situation in Goryeo would be clear so soon, and the plan could not catch up with the changes, put down the letter, Murong Fu said in a deep voice, "Prepare the horse, this king is going to Huining Mansion." ”
That night, Murong Fu led his family to go to Huining Mansion with Bao Wei and the turmoil, originally there was no need to go to Huining Mansion in person with Murong Fu's current identity, but the matter was serious, Murong Fu was afraid that Yan Zongwang would not be able to figure out the situation, so he still ran away in person. After several hours of running, he finally arrived at Huining Mansion at dawn, and heard that Murong Fu had come to Huining Mansion in person, Wanyan Zong was really taken aback, he thought about it a little, and went out to greet Murong Fu in person.
Wanyan Zongwang personally greeted him, and the courtesy was thorough, which could be regarded as giving Quan Murong a face, and when he was brought to the royal study of the palace, Wanyan Zongwang asked with a smile, "Brother Murong, why did you come to my Ningfu in person?" ”
The corners of Murong Fu's mouth curled, as if he had a toothache, he muttered in his heart, he could still laugh out loud after this Yan Er, and it was estimated that he would not be able to laugh after a while, "Hey, Wang, Murong is here to tell you something, not long ago, Zhao Yougong led his soldiers and horses to link Chunchuan and Lu Chuan, and now Hanyang City has also fallen into the hands of the Dingguo Army, Li Ziqian just sent a letter, hoping that I can transfer some soldiers and horses to him." ”
As Murong Fu thought, Wanyan Zongwang's smile froze on his face, "What? The Dingguo army captured Hanyang City? How is this possible? "Don't blame Yan Zongwang for not believing it, it's really unbelievable, but after he listened to the process of the fall of Hanyang, he could only lament that God didn't open his eyes, Cui Zhuo's old guy is also smart, he has nothing to do with sulfur powder, I really think Zhao Yougong eats dry rice, this is good, he saved so much sulfur powder, he didn't keep Hanyang, but lost Hanyang. Suddenly, Wanyan Zongwang understood a little why Murong Fu came in person, didn't Li Ziqian want reinforcements, Murong Fu definitely didn't want to send reinforcements, if he wanted to transfer, it could only be Wang Bengu's forces, and it was just Wang Bengu who had too close contacts with him Wanyan Zongwang.
Murong Fu wanted him to order Wang Bengu and Li Ziqian to cooperate with Yan Zongwang, in normal times, Wanyan Zongwang would be happy to pretend to be confused, and would never admit that he had an inherent connection with Wang Ben, but the current situation was urgent, and he couldn't care about it. Murong Fu's soldiers and horses will definitely not be transferred to Goryeo, even if Murong Fu agrees, he will not agree to it. Once the Liaodong army was empty. Yelu Dashi and Yelu Sha Bao Zhun annexed the east of Dadingfu. Killing Liaodong, for the sake of Liaodong, Murong Fu's soldiers and horses could not move.
"Huh, let's do it, this king has some friendship with that king Bengu, and he will repair a book after a while, persuading him to give up his prejudices and cooperate with Li Ziqian for the time being. Of course. In this regard, I have to help Brother Murong to do it, without you, this king can't say that Li Ziqian can't be moved. ”
Wanyan Zongwang replied very cleverly, he only said that he would cooperate for the time being, but he did not say that he would continue to cooperate, the meaning was already very obvious, now is now, after this predicament, who will be in Goryeo in the future, then it will depend on his ability. Of course, Murong Fu listened to the meaning of Yan Zongwang's words. He didn't care, Li Ziqian had been a powerful minister for so many years. The prestige of the power is by no means comparable to Wang Bengu, hum, it is really fair and honest to fight for Goryeo, can Wang Bengu fight Li Ziqian? If he could fight, Wang Bengu would not have been driven to Xichuan City from the throne of the royal capital. Murong Fu arched his hand and said with a smile, "Then thank King Xie for your help, in short, the longer this Goryeo person stops, the better it will be for us." In addition, it's time for both of you and me to make up our minds, is it time to move the Dading Mansion? ”
Murong Fu doesn't want to wait any longer, it will change later, the Dingguo army has already occupied Hanyang City, how long can it take to unify Goryeo? Even if Li Ziqian and Wang Bengu are there, they may not be able to stop the Dingguo army, the only hope is to conquer the Dading Mansion before the Dingguo Army opens up Goryeo and arrives in Liaodong, as long as the Dading Mansion is occupied, even if Zhao has the ability to pass through the sky, it is impossible to easily solve the problem of Liaodong.
Wanyan Zongwang's brows furrowed, he originally hoped to let Liaoyan's soldiers and horses attack Dading Mansion first, and with the help of the Dingguo Army, weaken Liaoyan's power, isn't it good? But now this idea is a bit unrealistic, Murong Fu is as cunning as a fox and refuses to be fooled, not to mention for the time being, Guang Zhao has a tendency to be aggressive, and he can't delay any longer, it seems that he can only spend a dozen bloody battles. After a long time, Wanyan Zongwang nodded vigorously, "Okay, Brother Murong is right, it's time to move the Dading Mansion." ”
Murong Fu returned satisfied, Wanyan Zongwang seemed to have gotten what he wanted, in short, the two met very happily this time. Wanyan Zongwang's urgent report was soon sent to Xichuan City, as the base camp of the Wang family, Wang Bengu's power can be described as deep-rooted and stable. In fact, Wang Bengu didn't have any thoughts about the Dingguo army, in his mind, it was best for Li Ziqian and the Han people to eat the dog, and bite and lose both. It's just that Yan Zongwang's order was sent over, so Wang Bengu can't help but think about it carefully.
"Really, are the Han people so powerful? actually asked Li Ziqian to go to Liaodong to ask for reinforcements" Wang Bengu was suspicious for a while, could it be that Li Ziqian was afraid of excessive losses, so he pulled him Wang Bengu into the water together, right?
Wang Bengu kept thinking about it, but unfortunately it was because of his thoughts that he couldn't compete with Li Ziqian, when was it, and he was still thinking about these little Jiujiu. But in the end, Wang Bengu still decided to send troops, isn't it just to attack Nanpu City, and he won't leave when Nanpu City is defeated, Nanpu City is not Li Ziqian's own land, whoever occupies it is whoever's. On the same day, Wang Bengu asked his confidant to lead Wang Houliang to 15,000 people from Xichuan City, and arrived at Baqiao Town in the southwest of the royal capital in Pingyuan, Jinchuan and other places.
On the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, the coalition army that had been brewing for several days finally rushed towards Nanpu City, in order to attack the small Nanpu City, Li Ziqian and Wang Bengu almost mobilized 30,000 soldiers and horses, and a small Nanpu City actually dispatched 30,000 troops, which shows that Li Ziqian and Wang Bengu are bound to Nanpu City. Compared with Wang Bengulai, Li Ziqian wants a victory, this is the first time to face the Dingguo Army, if you lose, it doesn't matter if Nanpu City can't be defeated, the most important thing is that morale has too much impact, and now the soldiers are affected by the Dingguo Army's capture of Hanyang City, and feel that the Dingguo Army is like a heavenly general, if you don't break this mentality, you will fight and lose many times in the future.
Ganghwa Island west of Inju, in order to deal with the attack on Nanpu City by the coalition army of Li Ziqian and Wang Bengu, Zhao Yougong rushed to Ganghwa Island from Hanyang on the first day, and after learning the number of coalition troops, Rao is Zhao Yougong's heart is big enough, and he can't help but be surprised. The army of more than 30,000 people is still a soldier in a hundred battles, and this battle is not easy to fight. Hu Cheng was in charge of the fortifications of Nanpu City, so he knew best about the ability of Nanpu City to bear, and he couldn't help but worry at this time, "Your Highness, Li Ziqian dispatched such a large army, it is difficult for Nanpu City to hold on. Now that our army has just experienced a series of major battles, it is unrealistic to travel long distances to aid Nanpu, and it is uncertain how useful the White Water Army and the Tiger Head Army will be, so it is best to be cautious in this battle. ”
"Well, what my brother said is very true" Zhao Yougong nodded slightly, if it is 10,000 people, Zhao Yougong will not be afraid, relying on the courage of Nanpu City and the Dingguo Army, he will definitely be able to retreat the land that will be invaded, but the other party is 30,000 people, then the situation is different. No matter how bold Zhao Yougong is, he will not be stupid enough to think that a few thousand troops can defeat an army of 30,000, this is Nanpu, not a meadow, and the cavalry is useless.
How should this battle be fought? Zhao Yougong was thinking, and everyone else was also thinking, Sanniang twisted her fingers, a little unconvinced, "Official, if you really can't do it, don't guard Nanpu City." ”
Sanniang's words, but it really woke up the person in the dream, yes, why do you have to guard Nanpu City? used Wang Yingren to put Li Ziqian together, so why not use Nanpu City to sing another play for Li Ziqian? Soon, Zhao Yougong had a bold idea in his mind, "Changke, you leave Ganghwa Island immediately, take all the cavalry away, enter Pyongyang from Hushan and lurk, and after Li Ziqian's army arrives in Nanpu City, you will lead the cavalry to cruise and attack near the royal capital, in short, you can make as much movement as you can, but there is a premise, don't get stuck in the quagmire and can't pull it out." ”
Although Gao Pet didn't understand why there was such an arrangement, he still respectfully received the order.
"Brother, please go to Nanpu City, try to withdraw all the soldiers and horses in Nanpu, in addition, don't forget the most important thing, when you leave, tear down all the four gates of Nanpu, don't leave a single door panel, and plant a flag in front of the city gate to welcome General Li Ziqian to Nanpu."
Hu Cheng's eyes rolled, and he seemed to understand a little bit of what trick His Royal Highness Zhao wanted to play, was it an empty city plan? But it's not simply an empty city, and the high-ranking cavalry should be of good use.
"The rest of the people will rest for the time being, and then King Sui will go to greet Li Ziqian together, hum, this king wants to give Li Ziqian a big gift!"
As he spoke, Zhao Yougong laughed twice, laughing so hard that it made people hairy. The wooden woman squinted her apricot eyes, and the corners of her mouth twitched, this thief, it is estimated that he has any bad intentions, Li Ziqian touched him, and it can be regarded as eight lifetimes of blood mold.
