Chapter 398: Closed Door and Ambush
However, the gate of Hancheng was actually closed. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
A staff general beside Wang Baochang shouted to the head of the city, "Lord Wang, the chief soldier of Shanxi, is here!
But he didn't want the captain at the head of the city to shout at him, "According to the order of Lord Hong, in order to prevent the sneak attack of thieves, the whole city of Hancheng is under martial law, and no one is allowed to enter the city without the warrant of Lord Hong and Lord Qin Shaobao." Dare to ask all the brothers, do you have the warrants of these two adults?"
Wang Baochang was furious when he heard this!
He is a dignified Shanxi commander-in-chief, and Hong Chengchou is just a small political officer......
Hey, no, Hong Chengchou is now the governor of Shaanxi.
He is the chief soldier of Shanxi, so naturally he can't control the head of the governor of Shanxi!
Wang Baochang was so angry that his back molars trembled, this Hong Chengchou is really a villain, and he will give Lao Tzu a face as soon as he gets his will, right? I don't want to think about how he was a little involved in politics and saw how Lao Tzu was low-voiced!
It doesn't matter if you don't open the door to Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu has a warrant from Yang Du!
Thinking of this, he said angrily to the captain, "Wait and listen, there will be a warrant from Lord Yang, the governor of the three sides, and the existing urgent military affairs need to be handled in the city, open the city gate quickly!"
But I heard the captain say, "General Wang, it's really not that the little one refuses to open the door, it's Lord Hong who has an order, except for him and Qin Shaobao's warrants, other people's passwords or warrants are useless." Please also General Wang Haihan!"
Wang Baochang was furious, "Bold, do you dare to disobey even the Governor's orders? Are you going to rebel?"
The lieutenant said, "General Wang is angry! If we want to talk about the size, we still think that this Qincha lord's warrant is bigger, because the holy decree says that his decision is the holy judgment, and it is he who wants our master Futai to do this, which is equivalent to the emperor asking us to do this! You say, do we dare to resist the emperor's holy decree?"
A lieutenant came up and said, "Otherwise, General Wang, you should also go and ask for a holy decree, and when you go back, the brothers will see the holy decree and keep it open for you!"
Wang Baochang was so angry that his face turned pale, and the beard at the corner of his mouth flew up.
He finally understood what Qin Shuhuai meant by what he said before, hoping that he would not repeat the mistakes of the past!
Before, he let Qin Shuhuai not be able to enter Taiyuan City, but now Qin Shuhuai has let him not enter Hancheng!
This is revenge, this is a demonstration, and even more blatant mockery!
Han Cheng only recognized his warrant from Qin Shuhuai, but not with the warrant of Governor Yang He, the situation could not be more obvious, that is, Hong Chengchou had already taken refuge in Qin Shuhuai, and it was a thorough kind of surrender, and he didn't even bother to deal with Yang He's hypocrisy and grievances, and directly stated that he would not wait.
Wang Baochang remembered that he had boasted to Qin Shuhuai before, saying that he would not let people drive him away, and he suddenly felt hot on his face.
When I said this, there were a lot of people listening, how can I explain it to them?
Could it be that this Qin Shuhuai was really transformed by a goblin? Why did he listen to him wherever he went?
At this time, Hong Chengchou was sitting in the mansion, sipping tea leisurely.
This Wang Baochang has no ability, but he has been in a high position for a long time, and he has long been unhappy with him. Now that he is the governor of Shaanxi, and he has this opportunity, how can he not humiliate him?
Of course, humiliating him is only secondary, and completely drawing a line with Yang He and the Donglin Party is his main goal.
Based on his judgment of the situation, he has long determined that Yang He will lose in this trilateral dispute!
This Qin Shaobao, whether it is the vision of judging the situation, the means of manipulating power and maneuvering techniques, or the martial arts of civil governance, is by no means beyond Yang He's ability. After Yang He lost three sides, the emperor was bound to start rectifying Donglin, saying that Donglin's resignation was still light, and it would take a lot of people to get the entire Donglin up and down, so as to level the emperor's long-term hatred of being oppressed by Donglin!
So, at this critical moment, how could he not bet in advance?
Keeping Wang Baochang out of Hancheng just helped Qin Shuhuai avenge an arrow, and he could also show his loyalty to Shaobao and the emperor, where to find such a good opportunity?
Even if Qin Shuhuai was in need, he could bring troops to help him.
You must know that if Donglin wins this battle, he will not have good fruit to eat if he remains neutral, because the Donglin Party does not like him at all, if it weren't for the emperor, he would still be doing a small political participation.
Therefore, he simply let it go, and clearly cut off from Donglin and completely fell to Qin Shuhuai's side!
Wang Baochang tossed under the city gate for a long time, from the initial kind words and persuasion to the last loud scolding, but the soldiers on the city tower didn't even bird him.
Wang Baochang is completely out of line. He can't lead his troops to storm the city gate, right? People said that he was at the behest of the emperor, and the incha said that it was at the behest of the emperor, and if he attacked the city, wouldn't that be a rebellion?
Besides, with his 3,000 men and horses, he still wants to break through Hancheng, which is guarded by 25,000 troops?
It was getting dark.
Wang Baochang confessed.
With the soldiers, he hurried back with his head down.
Like Qin Shuhuai, he took his brothers to rush in the ice and snow in the middle of the night.
The difference is that it was a six-rank official who drove Qin Shuhuai away, and the one who drove him away was just a tasteless captain of the city.
When the three thousand elite horses came, they were fast horses, but after they arrived in Hancheng, they didn't add anything, and they went back in a gloomy way, and they were really sleepy and tired.
That's not all, the most important thing is that morale is extremely low. These soldiers did not understand why the Governor's orders were suddenly not working? Could it be that there was a change in the three sides.
Various versions of rumors began to spread in the army, but there was only one core meaning, that is, the emperor no longer trusted Governor Yang, and wanted to send Qin Shaobao to seize Yang He's power.
If that's the case, then I'm afraid that Mr. Wang's soldiers will not be good.
The procession marched slowly to Wangjiatun, thirty-seven or eight miles away from Hancheng, and by this time it was already dark.
Wang Baochang was preparing for the soldiers to enter the tunzi for repair, when he suddenly heard shouts of killing all around!
Then, countless rogues armed with spears came from all directions. These streams are densely packed and spread all over the mountains, and there are tens of thousands of them. And they are all well-trained, they do not flinch in the face of cavalry, they are divided into dozens of people, first stabbing the horses and then stabbing people, and they have a very tacit understanding with each other.
There is no doubt that in the territory of Shanxi, except for Zhang Xianzhong's department, there is no rogue who can have such a strong strength.
Wang Baochang was shocked and hurriedly commanded his subordinates to resist. After a short fight, he saw that the enemy army was large and surrounded from all sides, so he made a regular decision - to join forces and make a strong breakthrough.
The decision was tactically correct, but he ignored the dark factor.
If he adopts the tactics of dispersing and breaking through at this time, he can also rely on the factor of darkness to get away with it. But once the breakthrough is concentrated, one is that in the case of a bad line of sight, the panicked horsemen are bound to trample on each other, and the other is that the other side also has horsemen, and when they see them breaking through in one direction, they can easily block the front and prevent them from breaking through.
To put it bluntly, Wang Baochang is good at slapping horses, but he is a layman in war.
Seeing that it was not possible to break through in a centralized manner, Wang Baochang ordered to disperse and break through.
But it was too late.
The encirclement of the rogue spearmen has been reduced, and it is strange that they can still break through. The situation on the battlefield changed rapidly, and a stupid commander could definitely kill countless soldiers, which was why the soldiers of the Wuyuan battalion were willing to go with Qin Shuhuai.
