Chapter 1276: The Battle of Annihilating Wei Twenty-one
There was chaos in the city, and now the Prime Minister's Mansion that stabilized the entire Cao Wei court was also in chaos, and the officials of the Prime Minister's Mansion were panicked. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
A courtyard of the mansion.
"Berning, what's the situation outside now, has the Wu army attacked the city?" Xun Yu's breath was weak, his face was pale, and he was lying quietly on the bed, but his eyes were wide open, exuding a cold gaze.
Since the battle of Luoshuihe and the annihilation of Xiahoudun and Cao Chun's army, he has been ill and can only lie on the bed, and his body is so weak that he can't even get out of bed.
"Prime Minister, I'm sorry, it's Weichen who is incompetent, Wu Jun doesn't have Miyagi, but Luoyang is already in chaos!" Standing beside him in shame, he whispered, "We have lost control of Luoyang City!" ”
"You tell the story well!" When Xun Yu heard this, his face became more and more pale, and he said weakly.
"No!"
Man Zhong nodded, and then quickly told Xun Yu in detail everything that had happened in Luoyang City in the past few days.
"Burning grain, spreading rumors, sending a decree from heaven, and good means are to arouse the anger of the people and disturb the hearts of the people...... This is a planned demagogue of the people and a rebellion against the people, which is better than Zhang Jiao back then. ”
After Xun Yu heard this, his eyes couldn't help but become a little hazy: "By the way, you mean that the granary in the city was not burned?" ”
"Yes!"
"Why don't you open the granary and stabilize the people's hearts!"
Man Chong shook his head and said with a wry smile: "It's not that I don't want to, it's that someone is the first to make a move, someone secretly bribed the officials of the Prime Minister's Mansion, in the name of these officials, mobilized our county soldiers, and then went door to door to forcibly requisition and plunder, in less than three days, it has caused the illusion of lack of food in the city, and when we react, the whip is beyond reach, even if we expose the granary, the people in the city will not believe us, the city has been in chaos, all the people have made a fuss out of the city, even if His Royal Highness the Prince personally came forward, It was also suppressed with 5,000 elite soldiers, but it was almost unbearable, and more than 100 people had been killed and injured these days, and countless injuries were made between the military and civilian conflicts. ”
"Superior layout!"
Xun Yu was stunned for a moment, and sighed: "It seems that Luoyang City can't be saved, how is Your Majesty now?" ”
"Your Majesty has returned to the palace since he met Sun Zhongmou once on the Luoshui River, and he has not been able to come out of the palace until now, even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Queen Mother have not been seen, he has not paid attention to anything in the court, and has handed over all affairs to His Royal Highness the Prince."
Man Zhong said: "I don't know what Your Majesty is thinking now!" ”
"Your Majesty is...... The heart is like ashes! ”
Xun Yu was silent for a long time, but he understood Cao Cao's mentality, and lightly spit out four words: "We are struggling, we are persistent, Your Majesty gave up because Your Majesty can't see hope!" ”
"Prime Minister, Your Majesty doesn't care about it, the morale of the soldiers in the city is scattered, the Wu army outside the city is eyeing the tiger, and now there are still people in chaos, how can we be good now?" Man Pet looked at Xun Yu lying on the hospital bed and asked.
"Since they can't hold it back, let them go!"
Xun Yu's eyes were sluggish, and after a long time, he said lightly: "If you return to Wu today, the overall situation must be determined, success or failure is already up to us, what we can do is only to be responsible for those innocent people in Luoyang, so that they can suffer as few casualties as possible, so Berning, what you should do now is not to care about the war, but to use the strength of our Prime Minister's Mansion to appease the people in the city!" ”
"Subordinates understood!"
When Man Zhong heard this, he nodded hurriedly, indicating that he understood what Xun Yu meant, and he also said: "Prime Minister, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and General Yu Ban Xu Huang intend to counterattack the Wu army outside the city, and they plan to attack the Wu camp at night, do you think it may be successful?" ”
"Whatever the outcome, some things can't be changed!"
Xun Yu said calmly.
The defeat is decided, and there is no way back.
Any struggle is just a casualty in the end.
When he heard this, he was silent for a long time, and finally just sighed gloomily, he couldn't see any way out, even if he broke through, I am afraid there was no hope.
……
Outside the city, in the camp of the Wu Army, the garrison of the Fifth Army, hot air balloons landed one after another to replenish fuel.
"Your Majesty, what is the purpose of us using our precious flying machine to distribute a notice to the inside of Luoyang City with such fanfare?" Zhou Yu was really puzzled, in his opinion, this kind of behavior was a bit wasteful.
"Gong Jin, don't underestimate these little leaflets, their role is comparable to that of an army of 100,000!"
Sun Quan's tiger eyes flashed with essence in his blue eyes, and he said confidently.
What he uses now is some of the strategies that only existed during the Republic of China.
Now the people in the city of Luoyang have complained about the Cao Wei court, the people's hearts are unstable, at this time there are still people in the city to sow discord, and the relationship is even more tense, all of a sudden, the leaflets in the sky fly down, ordinary people will not understand the flying machine, in this era of feudal superstition, they will call this the will of heaven.
When these announcements that should have the seal of the Great Wu let every person in Luoyang City know, then at least three of the ten people will be tempted to surrender to Eastern Wu.
In this way, the public opinion in the city that was fiercely suppressed by the Wei army will quickly swell, and then it will directly burst out surgingly, blowing up the entire Luoyang City upside down.
"Gong Jin, this battle does not want to be strong, only without a fight and surrender the army, and now is a critical time, the people in the city are unstable, they have begun to be disappointed in the Wei Dynasty, the army is small, millions of people are even more panicked, and the reason why they can always be stable and did not surrender is that there is some resistance to our Wu army in the bottom of our hearts, and we use the will of heaven to convey this notice, which should appease the mentality of many people, as long as they can accept the Great Wu from their hearts and reject the Cao Wei court, Even if it really moves one-fifth of the people, it will be enough to defeat this Luoyang City! ”
Sun Quan looked at Luoyang City in the distance and said lightly: "At that time, Luoyang City will be able to destroy itself without a single soldier!" ”
"Your Majesty is wise, and it's another strategy!"
When Zhou Yu heard this, his eyes lit up, he is also a smart person, after listening to Sun Quan's analysis of one or two sentences, he quickly understood Sun Quan's intentions: "As long as you cooperate with the rebellion in the city, you can indeed rebel against the officials and break the army with the people!" ”
The Yellow Turban Rebellion almost destroyed the entire Han Dynasty, and those Yellow Turban troops were basically ordinary people.
One common person is not enough to be troubled, but no one dares to ignore the hearts of tens of millions of people.
"Gong Jin, you continue to have people copy these Great Wu notices, and then let Shaye's Fifth Army fly twice a day, for three consecutive days, so that the entire Luoyang City will be sprinkled with our Great Wu notices!"
Sun Quan said: "I want every person in Luoyang City to have a share of our Great Wu's mind in their hands!" ”
The three of them can become tigers, and you can imagine how powerful the rumors are.
Luoyang City, a city of millions of people, these people have Dawu notices in their hands, and some people who care about Dawu get together, it doesn't matter if the news is true or not, the important thing is whether anyone believes it.
Now it seems that there are already a lot of people who believe it.
"Wechen understands!"
Zhou Yu nodded.
For three consecutive days, although the Wu army outside the city did not attack the city, there were flying machines made of hot air balloons flying over the sky every day, and the falling paper covered the hearts of every people in Luoyang City.
"Since Da Wu is willing to accept us, what are we waiting for, it's the other way around!"
"Anyway, we can't survive now, the Wei soldiers closed the city gate, didn't let us enter or leave, and there was no food in the city, so we could only do the opposite!"
"Smash! Smash! Stone them to death! ”
"This is the granary of the county government, hurry, go grab the grain!"
"Grab the food!"
"These dog officials should be killed, kill these dog officials for me!"
"Rush, crash open the city gate, and welcome Wu Junyishi into the city!"
The city was full of fierce clashes between the common people and soldiers, and the shops in the streets and alleys were smashed one after another, and even the granaries guarded by the county government were forcibly opened by some strong mobs.
The chaotic Luoyang City, with internal and external troubles, is like a small boat that rises and falls in the monstrous waves, crumbling and about to fall, everyone knows that if the chaos continues, even if the Wu army does not attack the city, the city will not be able to support it for a few days.
This night, the night was bright.
The 100,000 most elite lions in the city suddenly gathered, the gate of Dingding City opened, Cao Ang took the lead, and pulled out the long sword at his waist: "Sons, don't talk nonsense about this palace, the success or failure of Luoyang City, you will fight tonight, follow me!" ”
"Attack!"
"Attack!"
The soldiers of the Wei army followed Cao Ang's figure, like a trapped beast with red eyes, and slaughtered out of Luoyang City in one breath, and slaughtered the Wu army camp outside the city.
……
The southern suburbs of Luoyang, the camp of the Wu army.
This big camp occupies a vast area, the atmosphere is strict, the gates are high, the front and back are left and right, the five camps are staggered, one by one, the camp tents are illuminated by the brazier that is erected one by one, and it is unusually calm.
Although the patrolling soldiers are still patrolling around regularly, martial law is in a circle, but their steps are obviously much lighter.
Because of the chaos in the city in the past few days, they saw that the victory was about to be achieved without much effort, and their mentality naturally relaxed a lot, and they did not have the tension of the previous big war.
In the king's tent, a bronze tripod in the middle lit a torch, and the light shone as if it were day.
Sun Quan sat cross-legged, holding the book in his hand and looking carefully, Zhou Yu sat on his left side, and Guo Jia sat on his right.
"In the Wei Dynasty, there are also a lot of talents!" Sun Quan looked at the list listed on the book, and a smile inadvertently rose on the corner of his mouth: "If it can be used by Da Wu, it will definitely make my Da Wu go to the next level!" ”
The talents accumulated by Cao Cao in the past ten years are not only the top military generals, but also many available talents, which can be used, and will definitely enhance the national strength of the Wu Dynasty.
"Your Majesty, if we want to take down these talents, we need to capture the thief and capture the king, and the first thing we have to take down is Xun Yu!" Zhou Yu said in a low voice.
"Xun Wenruo?"
When Sun Quan heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Guo Jia on the right: "Fengxiao, do you think Xun Yu will surrender to me?" ”
"No!"
Guo Jia shook his head and said frankly: "Xun Wenruo is still a little bold, he has been loyal to Cao Cao for many years, and now even if Cao Wei destroys Wei, he will not beg to surrender to Dawu!" ”
"And what do you think I'm going to do with him?"
Sun Quan threw out a question.
"This needs to depend on Your Majesty's wishes, and the minister doesn't dare to say more!" Guo Jia cautiously replied, how he answered this question was wrong.
"I will allow you to say more!"
Sun Quan would not give him a chance to hide, his cold voice carried a hint of persecution.
"Your Majesty, Xun Wenruo will never be sincere to Dawu, but he may not be able to understand himself, not that he doesn't dare, he is unwilling, he Xun Wenruo was born in a famous family, he has been smart since he was a child, and he is talented, even if he does not enter the official career, he can leave a name in history and achieve a generation of Confucianism!"
Guo Jia glanced up at Sun Quan, looked at his persistent gaze, and thought about it in his heart before saying this.
Sun Quan heard Guo Jia's meaning, and it was probably hopeless to let Xun Yu surrender, but if he didn't kill him, it might not be useless to stay, so Guo Jia's proposition was to let Xun Yu go.
"Your Majesty, you must not!" Zhou Yu disagreed, and he immediately retorted: "Xun Wenruo's talent, comparable to the Liuhou of the year, was made the son of the world by Cao Cao, if this person cannot be used by Dawu, he will be the enemy of Dawu, if he does not surrender, he will be killed!" ”
"Xun Wenruo, it's a hot potato!"
Sun Quan looked at Guo Jia and Zhou Yu, what the two said made sense, he sighed, and was about to say, "I ......"
Da Da Da !!!!!
As soon as Sun Quan started to speak, he was violently confused by the sudden sound, and at this time, there was a sudden roar on the ground, and even the whole trembled a little, which surprised several people in the camp.
"What's going on?"
Sun Quan stood up suddenly, stood firm, and his gaze became fierce.
"Your Majesty, it should be the sound of horses' hooves!"
Zhou Yu hurriedly stood up and said: "This is the violent sound of the neighing of horses' hooves, which can make the ground start to shake, at least tens of thousands of war horses trample on it, and it is not far from us, it has such an effect, I guess, it should be the Wei army attacking the camp!" ”
"Report!"
"Come in!"
"Report to Your Majesty, the Wei army suddenly attacked our camp in a big way, and now they have broken through the gate and entered the front camp!" Lei Ding bowed his head and reported: "Our army is not in a hurry, there are heavy casualties, Commander He Qi, General Sun Ce and General Zhang Xiu have already led their troops to resist!" ”
"Humph!"
Sun Quan snorted coldly, his face was angry, and his eyes flashed with a cold murderous aura: "Night attack? It's a night attack, at this time they actually attacked my camp at night, I'm afraid they are coming at me, it seems that they want to behead, trap the beast and fight, rather die in a battle, a little backbone, I look at it, this battle is anyone! ”
After finishing speaking, he walked out of the desk directly, and then walked out in a big stride, and Guo Jia and Zhou Yu behind him hurriedly followed.
"The sons and daughters of Great Wei, follow me to kill, punish Emperor Wu, destroy Wu dogs, kill a Lang Lang of Great Wei, kill!"
"Kill it!"
"Great Wu Erlang, quickly line up!"
"Immediately dispatch left and right, give up the defense of the front camp, protect each other left and right, withdraw from the front camp, keep the forbidden army in the middle camp, and protect Your Majesty!"
The entire Wu army camp was already full of murderous sounds, the firelight reflected half of the sky, and under the staggered figures one after another, the battle was very fierce.
"It's hard enough!"
Sun Quan walked up to the middle camp to look at the wooden tower, from this position he could overlook the battlefield of the entire camp, looking at the ferocity of the Wei army, his expression was a little cold: "No wonder the front camp will collapse so quickly, the Wei army has gathered at least 100,000 soldiers and horses to kill in, it seems that the Wei army in the city is already the elite of the army, they want to break the cauldron and sink the boat, a strong blow, and defeat my big battalion, I underestimate them!" ”
"Your Majesty, the front camp was defeated by the Wei army, and Commander He Qi and General Sun Ce have already led the army to withdraw from the front camp, and are now retreating to the front of the middle camp!" The scout came to report.
"Go and tell He Qi Sun Ce that I am in the middle camp, and let them put the Wei army in to fight!"
Sun Quan pondered for a while, although the Wei army came very much, but the main force of his battalion was not vegetarian, so this battle simply came with a plan to annihilate the last main force of the Wei army in one fell swoop: "Also, immediately send scouts, and at the fastest speed, order Lu Bu of the eastern battalion and Huang Zhong of the western battalion, and let them quickly send troops to help!" ”
"No!"
One by one, the staff officers and scouts began to move.
"Your Majesty, the battlefield is dangerous, since they have entered the middle camp, the middle camp is in danger, why don't I lead the Praetorian Guards and escort Your Majesty out of here first!" Lei Ding said pleadingly.
"No!"
Sun Quan waved his hand: "I am not enough to escape with my tail between my legs, since they are coming at me, I will have a head-on conflict with them." ”
"But Your Majesty ......"
"I've made up my mind, don't say more!"
"No!" Lei Ding took a step back and quieted down, like a King Kong, guarding this Sun Quan.
"I am Dianwei, the one who stands in my way, die!"
The Wei army slaughtered into the Wu camp like a torrent, and the sharpest arrow was naturally Dian Wei, Dian Wei's double halberd was invincible, no one was his enemy, he rampaged, and forcibly tore apart the defense of the Wu army.
"Retreat!"
"Retreat!"
The Wu army has been paying attention to the rebellion in the city in the past few days, thinking that it is a soldier who can be surrendered without fighting, so the general's mentality naturally relaxed a lot, which led to being caught off guard by the night attack of the Wei army, and he could only retreat step by step.
"Damn it!"
He Qi's eyes were cold, and he gritted his teeth: "One hundred secrets, I really didn't expect that the Wei army would still be able to fight back!" ”
A small negligence, but the victory was the head, and the defeat was in a hurry, and at this moment he had the mentality of apologizing for his crimes.
"I'm going to stop Dian Wei, Commander He Qi, General Zhang Xiu, you must stabilize the morale of the soldiers, retreat to the middle camp, and protect Your Majesty!"
Sun Ce held a gun with one arm and suddenly killed: "Dian Junming, a certain Sun Ce, dare to fight!" ”
"Sun Bofu?"
Dian Wei's bronze bell-like eyes suddenly widened, and the deep anger in his eyes lingered, bursting out with a sharp battle light, and he shouted to kill: "A certain family will kill you first tonight, and then kill Sun Zhongmou, take your life!" ”
"Don't be ashamed!"
Sun Ce's temper was on par with Dian Wei, and in a fit of rage, he shot with all his might: "The overlord is on the top, die!" ”
"Hahaha, it's just a little overlord, even if it's the rebirth of the Xiang Ji back then, you will die today!"
Dian Wei was fierce and murderous, and the double halberd was like a double dragon leaping, with a heavy aura, like a bamboo, and it broke through Sun Ce's overlord gun.
Bell Bell !!!
The two fought for more than ten rounds in an instant, and their anger was like a blade, overflowing in all directions, and the soldiers around them couldn't help but shudder, and hurriedly retreated, not daring to approach the lone battlefield between the two.
"The third fierce general in the world, the rumors are true!"
Although Sun Ce is one-armed, he has deliberately practiced one-armed marksmanship in the past two years, and his combat effectiveness has not decreased but has advanced, but in the face of Dian Wei's supreme ferocity, it was only about ten rounds, the tiger's mouth cracked, the blood stained the spear, his heart was traumatized, and the breath in his body was almost crushed by Dian Wei's Gang Qi.
"Die!"
Dian Wei grew more and more courageous, and the murderous aura in his body exploded vividly, and he was bent on killing Sun Ce.
"Retreat!"
Sun Ce fought and retreated, retreating towards the middle camp.
He had to admit one thing, although he had entered the same realm, he was not Dian Wei's opponent after all.
"I am the crown prince Cao Ang, sons, the Wu army has been defeated, give me a hard beating, hit hard, kill them without leaving a piece of armor, kill them with a river of blood!"
Cao Ang saw that Dian Wei had already led the Imperial Forest Army to break through the defense of the Wu army, and he was in a good mood, so he hurriedly cheered up the army's morale and shouted: "Kill Emperor Wu Sun Zhong's conspirator, seal ten thousand households, reward ten thousand taels of gold, kill!" ”
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
Listening to Cao Ang's voice, the Wei soldiers suddenly became red-eyed, and they fought all the way from the front camp and went to the middle camp where Sun Quan was.
"Cao Ang?"
Sun Quan stood on the top of the tallest tower in the middle camp, faintly reflected in the firelight, and looked at the battlefield in front of him: "Okay, very good, I used to think that Cao Zixiu was just like that, but now it seems that he has a little bit of Cao Mengde's courage!" ”
He knew in his heart that this time he had let Wei Jun inadvertently catch a flaw.
This flaw is their arrogance.
They fought too smoothly in this battle, and after entering Luoyang, they didn't take the Wei army in the city seriously, and the rebellion in Luoyang City made him think that the Wei army had been defeated, and he didn't guard against them jumping off the wall in a hurry.
If he had been a little prepared before, this battle would definitely not allow the Wei army to succeed.
"Cao Zixiu is Cao Cao's son after all, although his personality is gentle, but he will reach a dead end, and there are still some fearless spirits that Cao Cao chased and killed Dong Zhuo alone!"
Guo Jia was dressed in a hunting robe, his eyes were deep, looking at the fierce battlefield, and an inexplicable smile rose at the corner of his mouth.
"One hundred secrets, I didn't think about it enough, I was thinking about how to break through Luoyang City, but I never thought that the Wei army would take the initiative to attack, and for the fault of the ministers, please punish Your Majesty!"
Zhou Yu's eyes were blood-red, his hands were clenched, he knelt down with his head bowed, and pleaded loudly.
"Your Majesty, do we need to avoid it?"
Lei Ding watched the Wei army enter the middle camp like a wolf, and was shocked in his heart, and asked here.
"No, you don't!"
Sun Quan repeated: "My Chinese army camp gathered two legions plus the Praetorian Guard, and the strength was not inferior to them, but let them fight suddenly, and they would not flee in the wilderness. ”
"No!" A staff officer hurriedly went to deliver the military order.
"Lei Ding, you immediately go to help Sui Sun Ce, he may not be able to block Dian Wei alone, he will suffer!" Sun Quan said.
"Your Majesty, then your safety is in danger!"
"I am in the middle camp, as long as you are not defeated, who can help but win me!"
Sun Quan said proudly: "A mere Cao Zixiu, even if he pours out the Wei army, is just a mad dog jumping over the wall in a hurry, I am the lord of the Ninety-Five, the lord of the world, how can I be afraid of him, he wants to fight, I will accompany him to the end!" (To be continued.) )
