Chapter 1026: Sweeping Guanzhong
In Feng Yi City, Tongzhou, Guanzhong, Li Jing immediately summoned Wang Yanzhang and other seven generals and captains on the school field after entering the city, and praised them greatly. Li Cunxiao was called in front of Li Jing and patted his shoulder to commend him, his heart was excited. Last night, Li Cunxiao personally led the headquarters and took the lead in attacking Feng Yicheng, and finally attacked in a bloody battle, and even suffered several knife wounds, which was very good.
"Your Highness, right now, Feng Yi is about to go down, Pujin Pass has been surrounded by us and has become a lonely city. A certain wish led 3,000 light cavalry from the headquarters to attack Pujin directly and win this pass for His Royal Highness. ”
Li Jing shook his hand and said with a smile: "Pujin Pass is already meat to the mouth, don't worry about this moment, let the soldiers rest for a day first!" ”
Gao Siji looked at Li Jing's appearance of victory, and couldn't help but be a little puzzled, now that the Xichuan army was besieging Chang'an, Yang Fugong brought a lot of Guanzhong soldiers and horses to fight the fire. As a result, the forces of Tongguan and Pujin Pass were weakened, and it was also a good time for the Qin army to quickly break through the eastern gateway of the pass. Why hold off at this time? Could it be that His Royal Highness is ready to take Chang'an directly?
Thinking of this, Gao Siji, the white horse silver spear, hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Your Highness, Dongchuan Jiedu made Gao Renhou break through Wuguan and Lantian all the way before, and now the soldiers are besieging Chang'an. Although Yang Fugong rushed back to the rescue, he was definitely not Gao Renhou's opponent. Chang'an is an important place, and I thought that I should immediately send troops to the west to seize Chang'an. The last general is not talented, willing to be a striker! ”
Chang'an is Xijing, even if since the Huangchao Rebellion, after several military rebellions, it has long been dilapidated, but its significance is significant. Especially for the battle for Guanzhong, Chang'an has a more central role. Control of Chang'an is extremely important for the capture of the entire Guanzhong. At present, although the Guanzhong coalition army is defeated by the Qin army, Tian Lingzi is also involved in Guanzhong. If you let him get ahead of the curve. grabbed Guanzhong first, which was inevitable for Qin Fan to make wedding clothes for others.
But unexpectedly, Li Jing smiled again and shook his head.
"Chang'an's side will not care about him for the time being. Again, rest for a day. After the Taishi went south, Tongzhou, when the Lin Guogong soldiers were in Tongtong, we defeated the enemy soldiers in Tonghua and the two states in one fell swoop. Then he waved his troops west to Chang'an. ”
"But if Gao Renhou is allowed to attack Chang'an first, I'm afraid"
Li Jing smiled, pinched his short beard under his chin, and said confidently: "Gao Renhou will not be an obstacle for us!" ”
Tongguan.
Tongguancheng, the eastern gate of Guandong, is full of troops and is strictly guarded. Tongguan City does not have a north gate, only the east, west, south gate and upper south gate. After the withdrawal of troops from Hedong, the soldiers and horses of the three towns of Tonghua, Jingyuan, and Fengxiang were all withdrawn into Guanzhong, plus part of the Shence army. There were also soldiers and horses that had previously been withdrawn from Luoyang, Shaanxi, and gold merchants. Tiny Tongguan. More than 100,000 soldiers and horses were garrisoned. After Li Quanzhong, the commander of Tongguan and the commander of Tongguan, returned to Tongguan, each city gate sent a general with 5,000 people to guard it and strictly check the entry and exit. In addition, there were armies from other feudal towns to assist in the defense. Outside the city, all strategically located. For example, to Luochuan and Jinpenpi and other places, a large number of horse infantry troops were stationed. Not only are every household occupied by the officials and soldiers of each town, but also the suburbs are lined up with a curtain of war horses.
At night, the drums and horns play each other, the horses neigh, and within dozens of miles around Tongguan, there are piles of bonfires everywhere, and the lights are as bright as day. From south to north, from west to east, all roads are blocked, and no pedestrians or vendors are allowed to approach, let alone pass.
The town ** festival envoy, Tongguan marshal, Tongzhong Shumen under the Ping Zhangshi, Jingdong Xingying Dutong, Shizhong, inspection school captain, Ji King Li Quanzhong personally sat on Tongguan. In the past few days, the Qin army scouts and cavalry that have come from time to time can be seen everywhere in the Kanto area, and now rumors are spreading every day inside and outside the Guandong, saying that Gao Renhou, the commander of the Dongchuan Festival, has led the Sanchuan soldiers and horses to break through Chang'an, welcome back Li Yi to the throne, and abolish Li Ye. After a while, he said that Lin Wei in the eastern part of the country had taken the two towns of Shaanxi and Jinshang. There are even rumors that Li Jing has broken through the Pujin Pass, waved his troops along the Weishui River to the west, and has already fought to Chang'an.
All kinds of rumors made the Tongguan garrison frightened and panicked. Although Li Quanzhong strictly investigated the rumor-mongers, he had little effect. Li Changyan of Fengxiang, Zhang Jun of Jingyuan, and Zhu Mei of Suining couldn't hold their breath, and they withdrew to the town with their own troops and horses. Li Jing and Gao Renhou have already broken through the outer portal of Guanzhong and hit Guanzhong. There is no point for them to defend in Tongguan anymore, if their lair is occupied, it will be a catastrophe. No matter how hard Li Quanzhong persuades, no one is willing to take such a risk. In the end, they only reluctantly agreed to a request from Li Quanzhong, and they did not make a noise when they left, but quietly evacuated in the middle of the night and returned to the town, and also left Li Quanzhong with the people who could not take away and some wounded soldiers, as well as logistics and heavy equipment, etc., which can be regarded as stabilizing the morale of Li Quanzhong.
No one knows that at this time, there are 100,000 soldiers inside and outside Tongguan, but less than half of the real soldiers are full, and the rest are mostly full of people, who issued a spear and a horizontal knife, and drove the ducks to the shelves with a set of clothes. In particular, the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses are not all Li Quanzhong's towns, but include Zhenguo, Shaanxi, Jinshang, as well as Luoyang, Fengxiang, Suining, Jingyuan, Shence Army and other troops. Although he knew what a rabble his subordinates were, Li Quanzhong had no way out. Li Changyan and the others can retreat, but he can't, this is his territory, and if he takes a step back, he won't even have any more territory.
After patrolling up and down Tongguan with his personal guards, Li Quanzhong returned to Guan.
Taking off his dazzling handsome helmet, Li Quanzhong's whole person suddenly looked like he was ten years old, and he tried his best to pretend to be confident and relaxed when he was patrolling outside. But as soon as he arrived in the house, his inner uneasiness was immediately revealed. picked up the teacup and took two sips, only to find that it was a cup of herbal tea, and he slapped the teacup on the table in anger.
"How?" Throwing down the teacup, Li Quanzhong said with a gloomy face.
"Dongfang Kui of Baoda and Li Sigong, who is in trouble, have been defeated by Li Jing's disciple Wang Yanzhang and other seven generals, and have surrendered to Qin. They were willing to be Li Jing's lackeys, personally acted as the vanguard, opened the way for the Qin army, and went directly south along the Beiluo River, bypassing the northern line defenses such as Hexi and Chengcheng set up north of our Pujin, and directly conquered Feng Yicheng. At present, Li Jing has personally led 50,000 elites to cross the river, and joined forces with Wang Yanzhang's men and horses to meet Feng Yicheng's subordinates and outflank Pujin Pass. ”
"How many men do they have?" Li Quanzhong's face became more and more ugly.
Li Jing personally led 50,000 elite guards, Wang Yanzhang's westward march of nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses, and the two towns of Baoda and Dingnan were difficult to surrender together. There were 50,000 soldiers and horses. ”
120,000 soldiers and horses, this number made Li Quanzhong breathe cold air. He was driven to Guanzhong by Li Jing from Hebei, and finally had this foothold in the battle with Huangchao. The loss is not small, and the same state has lost it several times. Although it was regained again, it suffered a lot of losses and suffered a lot of damage. Previously, he sent his eldest son, Li Congwei, to be the assassin of Tongzhou. Not long ago, he sent his second son Li Kuangchou as the guard of Pujin Pass, but all the soldiers and horses of the two sons in Tongzhou added up, and they were only 50,000 old and weak. Feng Yi was lost, and Li Jing broke the northern defense line, and now they are cowering in Pujin Pass, with less than 30,000 troops. Just this point, how to fight against Li Jing's 120,000 soldiers and horses.
The staff reported another piece of military information, which made Li Quanzhong's situation worse and worse.
"The two Tuyuhun towns of Zhenwu and Tiande in Hequ have been defeated by Yu Xuan and completely surrendered to the Qin army. Now they are marching south. Eighty thousand soldiers. It will take you to Susukitsu in a few days. ”
Li Quanzhong was silent for a long time, his fists were clenched tightly, and his joints turned white. Squeak.
With 200,000 soldiers and horses, Pujin will inevitably not be able to hold it. And that's not all. On the front of Tongguan, there is also Lin Wei's 100,000 army.
"King, in the current situation, you should retreat as soon as possible!" The staff thought about it and said, the current situation of the town ** is really dangerous. What's the point of persevering. The Chang'an court is doomed, the skin does not exist, and the hair is attached. If you plan early, it is naturally a sign of surrender. So many feudal towns were all drummed down by the Qin army, and when the Qin army came west, there was no one to stop them. No matter how much you struggle, it's just a mantis blocking the car.
How could Li Quanzhong not know this, but even now, it is still difficult for him to make up his mind to surrender to Li Jing. When he was in Hebei, he also won Yiwu and Lulong Towns for a time, but in the end, Li Jing picked peaches and was forced to leave Hebei. It was not easy to earn another foundation in Guanzhong, but who would have thought that it had only been a few years, and it was even worse than the original situation. Back then, he could still leave Hebei, but now, where can he go?
"The world is so big, there is no place for a certain foothold!"
"Why don't you descend to Qin, in the current situation, your arms can't twist your thighs after all. In this case, if the king surrenders to Qin with Tonghua and the two states at this time, it will not lose merit. ”
"Rong thinks about it again." Li Quanzhong sighed and waved his hand to the staff, who withdrew lightly, leaving Li Quanzhong alone in the room.
Kamatsu Pass.
Pujin Pass is also known as Pusaka Pass, also known as Linjin Pass. It is a fortress built on the west bank of the Yellow River, and it is actually a bridgehead castle on the west bank of the Pujin Bridge. Pujin Bridge is the largest bridge connecting Hedong and Guanzhong, this important bridge connects Qin and Jin, and there are four 10,000-pound iron oxen on each bank to fix more than a dozen large iron cables across the Yellow River.
Complete bridge, there is Pujin Pass in the west of the river, and there is also a castle in the east of the river. And even in the middle of the river, there is a castle. The castle was built on a Shazhou in the middle of the river, similar to the Heyang Bridge between Luoyang and Heyang, all of which were in the form of a bridge and three passes, with a Guancheng built on each side of the bridge, and a Zhongyun city was established on the sandbar in the center of the river, with strong military defense performance.
Because of this, although the Qin army occupied the river, the Pujin defenders did not destroy the river bridge, because the river bridge was too difficult to capture.
The defender of Pujin Pass was Li Kuangchou, the second son of Li Quanzhong, but now, his brother Li Congwei retreated from Feng Yi's defeat and retreat into Pujin City, and the command of this pass was immediately transferred to Li Congwei.
Li Congwei was arrogant and domineering, nicknamed the King of the Golden Head, Feng Yi's army was defeated and retreated into Pujin, and he first seized the power of his brother at the first time, and then did not discuss the defensive strategy well, but instead set up a banquet and ate and drank. Seeing this, Li Kuangchou was dissatisfied, but because he was the eldest son, he could only suppress his dissatisfaction in his heart.
Li Kuangchou returned to Pujin Pass from Zhongjuncheng early in the morning, and as soon as he entered the mansion, he heard a burst of crying. He heard that it was Madame's voice, and he felt bad, so he hurriedly went in, only to see Madame's cry coming from the bedroom. He rushed away in shock, but saw his wife with her hair scattered, her eyes swollen, and she was crying incessantly. Next to him was a group of maids pulling the lady and persuading her on the side. When I looked again, I saw a white silk hanging from the beam in the room, and an overturned drum stool on the ground.
This, what's going on?
When the lady saw him, she cried even more and went to hang herself.
Li Kuangchou was anxious. Hurriedly went to hug Madame.
After a long time, Li Kuangchou shouted, "I'm going to kill this brute!" Then he strode out of the room with an unsheathed sword, startling everyone. Li Kuangchou carried his sword and went straight out. When I got out of the hospital, I was blown by the wind, but I immediately calmed down.
He stopped, gritted his teeth, and his face was cloudy. After thinking about it for a long time, he finally glanced hatefully at the general's mansion where Li Congwei temporarily lived in the east of the city, and stomped back to the mansion. For Li Kuangchou, from this moment on, that person is no longer his brother. He never thought that this arrogant and domineering brother, who had no ability, would be able to do such a thing that was inferior to a beast. Just yesterday, when he went to patrol Zhongyun City, Li Congwei was still feasting and drinking in the city. Then in the middle of the night. He suddenly came to his house with his guards. Outcome. This beast was supposed to come to him, but by getting drunk, he forcibly raped his beautiful brother and daughter-in-law.
After doing something like this. Li Congwei swaggered away as if nothing had happened.
Such an insult. Li Kuangchou could not bear it. He was so furious that he was about to cut down the beast with his sword. But halfway through, I came to my senses again. Although Li Congwei has no ability, he is now in control of Pujin Guancheng. When he came to the door like this, he was afraid that he would not be able to be reasoned, but he would be poisoned.
"If you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust!"
Li Kuangchou cursed hatefully, turned around and went back to the house into the study, and then began to write a letter with a pen.
In the General's Mansion in Dongcheng, Li Congwei sat on the couch with a glass of crimson wine in one hand and played with a pink silky fabric in the other, which was a silk belly pocket with a woman's fragrance, which was his trophy last night. His beautiful brother-in-law's personal belongings, as soon as he saw this dirty clothes, he couldn't help but think of the fierce resistance, but the white and soft ** last night, the snow-white towering under the small clothes. The fierce resistance beneath that beautiful face, and the constant moaning and begging for mercy beneath him
As soon as he thought of this, he couldn't help but feel blood all over his body, and an obscene smile immediately appeared on his face.
"How's it going over there?" He asked. After doing this ridiculous thing, he was thrilled in his heart, but it was actually a little unnatural. That's a brother's wife after all!
"The young general returned home after dawn, and went out with his sword in half an hour, and then bowed his head and went back!" When the tooth general who replied said this, his face couldn't help but be a little disdainful, this Li Kuangchou is really useless.
"Hahaha! Is that so? Very good! When Li Kuangchou heard his brother's reaction, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then laughed. Well, go get some good wine and continue to get drunk tonight! ”
Feng Yicheng.
Li Jing looked at the letter in his hand several times, bowed his head and pondered.
"Your Highness, beware of the enemy's deception!" Wang Yanzhang said.
Li Jing raised his head, "What do you think about this matter?" ”
Gao Siji thought for a while: "I think that this matter is very likely to be true. If the Lee Converse brothers wanted to cheat, then they had to make up a better story. And what Li Kuangchou wrote in the letter is too unbelievable, the brother raped his brother and daughter-in-law, if this is not true, who can talk about it? One thought that this was most likely true. Therefore, Li Kuangchou suffered this great humiliation and wrote this letter. ”
Li Jing also agrees with Gao Siji's analysis, but he is not in a hurry to make a decision.
"Guo Wei, you are an elite in the intelligence community, and this matter will be entrusted to you to verify the authenticity of the matter. Be fast, I need to know the truth before it gets dark! ”
Guo Wei was just promoted to the rank of major general not long ago, which can be described as a rising star in the army, especially his brother Guo Tao was also promoted to the rank of major general with him, a double major general, and he is not from a wealthy family, this glory is even more brilliant. Guo's two heroes, the iron beast Guo Wei, and the little overlord Guo Tao can now be described as red and purple. King Qin ordered the general, and Guo Wei naturally obeyed the order immediately.
This newly promoted major general, who has been nicknamed the Iron Beast, is worthy of being the elite of the military intelligence department, and in less than half a day, when it was dark, he had already made a report to Li Jing. According to the report of the secret agent of the Military Intelligence Bureau lurking in Pujin City, what Li Kuangchou wrote in his letter was true, and Li Congwei did indeed commit adultery with his brother and daughter-in-law.
After confirming this information, everyone became excited.
This is really God help me, at this time there is civil strife in Pujin City, and that is not to send Pujin City to the door.
In the river, Puzhou.
The smile on Cui Anqian's face became brighter and brighter, and he slapped the table heavily, "Pujin can go down." Pass on my order, tonight two more cooking, three more gathering! ”
Night.
The Pujin Bridge hangs over the Yellow River, and the roaring waves of the Yellow River are endless. The night wind carries the watery smell of the Yellow River in the air. A team of Qin army engineers were quietly working intensively on the Pujin Bridge, holding wooden planks one by one, and they were quickly laying the bridge planks on the iron chain bridge that had been stripped bare.
The bridge was laid forward quickly, and soon it was in front of the Zhongyun city on the sandbar in the middle of the river. Zhongyun City is not too big. But it is firmly stuck in this Pujin Bridge, and the real one-man is the pass, and it is not open. With the high bridge fort, the strong iron gate, the dense arrow towers on the fort, and the arrow holes in the fort wall, as long as you hold this place, if you want to break through from the outside, it is tantamount to ascending to the sky.
The sappers lay the slabs forward. From time to time, he looked up at Zhongyun City. I was nervous.
"Gah! ~" The closed gates slowly opened. The Qin troops on the bridge raised their iron shields in front of them one after another, staring nervously ahead.
The gates opened, and out of it came a group of soldiers. A general followed closely behind, and a personal soldier on his side of the horse held a white flag. It stands out in the moonlight.
Seeing this scene, Qin Jun all breathed a sigh of relief.
"Under the orders of General Li Kuangchou, I have come to greet the brothers of the Qin army on the order of the general!"
"What about General Li Kuangcho?" Captain Qin Jun, who came to the front, asked.
"In order not to attract attention, General Li is staying in the city for now, and he specially asked a certain person to come to greet you." The general saw the vigilance of the Qin army officer, and hurriedly said: "A certain is General Li Kuangchou's wife is a sister!" ”
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere suddenly relaxed.
The captain quickly asked people to report back to the rear team, and soon Cui Anqian sent an order to cross the river immediately.
The vanguard Qin army soon entered Zhongyun City and quickly took over Zhongyun City. Then the follow-up troops began to flow the river.
On the west bank of Pujin Bridge, the bridgehead is Pujin City, and the west gate of Pujin is the west bridgehead of Pujin Bridge.
Under the cover of night, the soldiers and horses that had quietly walked under the west gate stopped. Li Kuangchou's brother-in-law asked his men to light five lanterns.
After waiting for a while, five lanterns were lit up in the city.
Then, suddenly, there were several sounds of gold and iron in the city, and then the gates creaked open as everyone waited anxiously. Li Kuangchou was dressed in armor and carried a blood-dripping horizontal knife in his hand, standing outside the door and shouting: "Enter the city!" ”
Captain Qin Jun looked at it and waved his hand behind him, "Go!" "Take the lead and take the lead in rushing to Guancheng.
The Qin army quickly rushed into the West Gate, and seized the West City Tower as soon as possible, and then under the leadership of Li Kuangchou, quickly attacked the Guancheng. Because of the danger of Zhongyun City, the focus of Pujin City's defense has always been in the east, and the focus of defense has been on the large army of Li Jing, who has captured Feng Yicheng. Xicheng did not have many soldiers and horses to defend, and Zhongyun City was used by Li Congwei to house Li Kuangchou's original Pujin Pass garrison.
Li Kuang prepared to surrender Qin, and suggested to Li Jing that the inside should be combined with the outside, and the direction of the raid was not to the east but to the west behind it. Because he controls Zhongyun City, the most dangerous Pujin Bridge has become the smoothest road. Even Li Kuangchou volunteered to open the relatively weak west gate for the Qin army at a critical time.
Li Kuangchoi has been stationed in Pujin for a long time and is very familiar with this place, and the plan he made was approved by Li Jing. Directly sent an order to Cui Anqian in the river, and asked him to lead his troops to cooperate with Li Kuangchou.
However, there is another extremely important reason for being able to capture the West City Gate so smoothly tonight.
Just after dark, Li Jing led the main force of soldiers and horses to suddenly launch a night attack on Pujin Kanto City, which was enough to attack and attract the attention of most of Li Congwei's soldiers and horses. made the guards in Xicheng even weaker, which gave Li Kuangchoi an opportunity to take advantage of.
Li Congwei commanded the defense in Dongcheng with a half-drunk intention, and saw that the Qin army fought for most of the night and did not break through the defense of the city pass, so he couldn't help but say proudly: "It is said that the Qin army is invincible, and Li Jingshuai is unparalleled. ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw shouts of killing in the west of the city.
A captain flew in and rushed over, shouting in embarrassment: "General, the big thing is not good, the second general suddenly led people to cut down the defenders of the West Gate and led the Qin army into the city!" ”
Li Congwei, who was triumphant, didn't expect things to take such a sharp turn, he was stunned on the spot, his face was purple, he couldn't say a word with his mouth open, and finally his eyes rolled and he fainted directly.
Cui An sneaked through the West Gate to attack Pujin Pass, and the defenders in the city could no longer stop the Qin army and quickly collapsed. At this time, even if they wanted to escape, they had nowhere to escape, and Li Jing's tens of thousands of troops were stopped outside the city. In the end, they can only flee in all directions, or abandon their weapons and surrender. By the time dawn came, the Qin army had completely occupied Pujin Pass, all the defenders. Either die or surrender, including Li Congwei, none of them slipped through the net.
At the same time as Pujin fell, Yu Xuan finally led 80,000 soldiers and horses, including Tiande and Zhenwu, to the south. They did not go to Feng Yi to join the division, but went directly south along the Beiluo River, passed through the Baoda Jufang Prefecture, and entered Fengxian and Meiyuan, which attacked the northeast of Jingzhao Prefecture, until Fuping, the north of the Weizhen Jingshi.
On the same day, the Qin army in Tongzhou divided the road and quickly captured Chaoyi and Xiaqi on the north bank of the Wei River, and fully occupied Tongzhou.
Day 3. The Qin army crossed the Wei River. Occupy the cities of Weinan and Huazhou in the south of Jingnan.
Tongguan. After the Qin army occupied the north, it was cut off from the Jingshi, and the west was also cut off.
Day 5. Lin Wei captured the entire territory of Shaanxi and Yuzhou, and 100,000 troops were under the city of Lintong Pass.
Day 7. Li Quanzhong's Tongguan City, Lin Wei led 100,000 elites to station in the east pass, Li Jing led Cui Anqian, Wang Yanzhang and others to lead 150,000 soldiers and horses to surround the north of Tongguan, and Yu Xuan led 80,000 soldiers and horses to enter the Huayin Pass West Station in the west of Tongguan.
Faced with a heavy siege, Li Quanzhong had no choice, and in the face of the envoy sent by Li Jing, he finally agreed to surrender with his troops.
On November 16, Li Jing entered Tongguan and surrendered, Li Quanzhong handed over the tiger talisman seal, the roster of soldiers, money, food and equipment, and surrendered on his knees.
During this time, Zeng Yuanyu, the general of the Qin army, led an army through the south of Luoyang. When Li Jing crossed the river and entered the customs, Zeng Yuanyu was also in Dengzhou and Shannan Jiedu envoy Liu Jurong's coalition army had a big battle, Liu Jurong's 50,000 coalition troops were defeated by Zeng Yuanyu's same number of Qin troops, and the army was defeated and retreated south to Xiangyang. Zeng Yuanyu did not continue the pursuit, but waved his troops westward and attacked Shangzhou.
On the third day after the Qin army took Tongguan, Zeng Yuanyu lived up to his expectations and went north along the Danshui road. It is almost a re-entry of Gao Renhou's road to the customs, and on November 19, Zeng Yuanyu attacked the Wuguan guarded by the soldiers and horses of Sanchuan. Taking advantage of the victory, he went north, connected with Shangluo and Shangluo, and conquered Lantian Pass on November 25.
Changan.
This Tang Jingshi, once the most prosperous capital in the world, no longer remembers how many times it was breached and occupied by barbarism.
Although Yang Fugong was in a hurry to return to Chang'an, how could a eunuch fight a fierce general. Although Yang Fugong occupies a favorable location and has more soldiers and horses than the Xichuan army, the gap between a group of Shence forbidden troops led by eunuchs and the Shu army led by a famous general is still too big.
As early as when Li Jing had just captured Pujin, Gao Renhou had broken through Chang'an City. Yang Fugong's army was so defeated that he didn't even have time to return to the city to take the emperor away, so he was killed by the Sichuan army and fled to Fengxiang in panic. Chang'an City fell directly into the hands of Gao Renhou, from Li Ye, the Son of Heaven, down to the prime minister, etc., none of them came and fled. Fortunately, after Gao Renhou captured Chang'an, he strictly enforced military discipline and blocked the palace and imperial city early, although the emperor and others were under house arrest, at least the safety of life and property was guaranteed.
Although Gao Renhou took Chang'an and received food and other supplies, he was not happy at all.
He couldn't be happy, as he had expected, once the Sichuan army betrayed Chang'an, although it took Shangzhou and Jinzhou in a short time, and even entered Chang'an, Chang'an was also captured. But what's the point of this, Tian Lingzi stabbed Yang Fugong, and stabbed him very hard, Yang Fugong was directly stabbed to death by this knife, but as a result, the biggest winner was Li Jing.
Now, their back road back to Chuanzhong is blocked.
"Gao Shuai, Tian Gong has a letter, let me wait and not stick to Chang'an, his old man has already led the Shence army to Chang'an!" Tian Jingzhong trotted all the way over, but it was cold, but his forehead was full of beads of sweat.
Gao Renhou heard this, but he was not moved in the slightest. At this time, Tian Lingzi still wants to return to Chang'an and govern again, which is really a pipe dream. If he is sober, the best choice at this time is to immediately let them retreat west to Qizhou and retreat from Sanguan to Jiannan. It is best to take away the Son of Heaven of Chang'an with hundreds of officials and wealth and other things. In this way, Shuzhong is dangerous, with the geographical advantage, plus the name of the imperial court, it may be able to last for a few years.
But if you stick to Guanzhong, it is purely looking for death, and rushing to Guanzhong with the emperor is even more looking for death.
Guanzhong Sisai, Tongguan and Wuguan have all been lost, Zhenwu, Tiande, Baoda, Dingnan, Tonghua, the five feudal towns have all been annexed by the Qin Domain, how can they resist Li Jing?
Chen Jingzhong has been grinding here with Gao Renhou for most of the day, and Gao Renhou didn't give him a good look, but Chen Jingzhong didn't dare to be full, and now it is different from the past.
After Chen Jingzhong left, Gao Renhou sat in front of the desk and pondered for a long time, and in the end, he sighed helplessly. He also has the intention to kill the thief, but he has no power to return to heaven. If Tian Lingzi didn't look at it, maybe there would be some remedy, but by now, it was too late. The overall situation is clear, and no one can stop Li Jing's footsteps.
"Marshal, Captain Li Maozhen asks to see you!" The guards reported from outside the tent.
Gao Renhou frowned slightly when he heard this name, as a general in command, he may not be able to remember the names of every soldier under him, but for the officers under him, he almost remembers all of them. Li Maozhen, just a small capital, what does he mean when he suddenly came to ask to see. If he had been, he would not have seen him. But at this time, he wrinkled his brows, and finally said, "Let him in." ”
Li Maozhen entered the hall under the leadership of the guards, feeling a little apprehensive. However, the fame and wealth are here, and they have a little courage.
"What do you want to see?" Gao Renhou glanced at Li Maozhen a few times, and there was a majesty in his tone.
Li Mao swallowed his throat and said boldly: "I have always admired the mightiness of the marshal, and I came here today to show a clear way for the marshal." ”
As soon as these words came out, Gao Renhou's face changed suddenly, his eyes widened, and his palm slapped heavily on the case, and there was a loud bang: "What a gut!" ”
Li Maozhen was almost frightened by this loud noise and fell to her knees, but it was not easy to stabilize her mind, grit her teeth, stalk her neck, and continued: "King Qin asked a certain to tell the marshal that the chaos in the world is coming to an end, and the court needs talented people like the marshal. Besides, when the general trend is divided today, why bother to create and kill again, and only increase the damage. Please also ask the marshal to look at the innocent people in the world, for the sake of those soldiers, abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and also retain a little more vitality for the world! ”
Li Maozhen saw that Gao Renhou seemed to be loosened, and he talked more and more. And Gao Renhou, who was sitting at the top, although his face was still gloomy, did not stop his persuasion, but only frowned urgently, as if he was struggling.
When Li Maozhen said that his throat was smoking, his mouth was foaming, and he finally couldn't speak anymore, Gao Renhou finally spoke.
"Ben Shuai wants to meet His Royal Highness King Qin in person, can you arrange it?"
Li Maozhen was overjoyed, Gao Renhou was willing to see King Qin, so there was persuasion in this matter. Immediately nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, I will report this matter to King Qin immediately." ”
"Well, the sooner the better, remember not to publicize it yet!" Gao Ren is kind.
"Understood, understood." Li Maozhen almost couldn't believe that this was true, and she said a few words that moved Gao Renhou? But this is the case, he didn't have to think too much, and nodded again and again to withdraw.
