Chapter 143: The Unification of the Shu Dragon (I)
Wang Hongyi stood in front of the army on horseback and asked the 13 divisions and 100 households who were responsible for collecting intelligence in Hanzhong.
Hanzhong is located in Longjian, but there is a plain "Hanzhong County has also hoarded a lot of food, and the financial and material resources are not weak."
Moreover, this place "is the mén household of Shu and Qin, and it is the place where the two places border, and the merchants and merchants are very close" The county town in front of him is also known as the richest place in Longjian.
Even if Wang Hongyi didn't fancy the commercial development potential of this county town, it was impossible to ignore the military role played by this county town on the border!
As long as all the dragon swords are taken down and put into their own hands, even if there are only a few thousand people guarding this place" Guo Wentong wants to capture this city and enter Shu, it is not easy.
The thunderbolt chariot and other things in Wang Hongyi's hands are not comparable to the siege objects mastered by other feudal towns, and it is definitely not easy for such a big city as Hanzhong to rely only on hard attack.
In this case, Wang Hongyi naturally would not let others take over the county.
Wang Hongyi ordered people not to rush to attack the city, for the sake of the big plan, now that Guo Wentong's army has retreated, Hanzhong is already a piece of féiròu, and there is no reason to fly away?
Of course, out of habit, Wang Hongyi was still accustomed to "from the Thirteen Divisions, first understand the situation in the city at this time" before making a decision, how to attack this city.
"My lord, there are 10,000 soldiers in Hanzhong County, and according to Jiān's detailed information, although the morale has plummeted, there are still 9,000 to fight. Thirteen Divisions and Hundred Households reported to Wang Hongyi.
With the ability of the Thirteenth Division, it is not difficult to send people into Hanzhong before the war starts, but it is just that they can't access those confidential information.
The lower officials and soldiers of the city will be able to obtain information, "they will send them out of the city from time to time."
"Nine thousand defenders, if they attack by force, our army will also have two or three thousand losses......", Wang Pingyi frowned and frowned slightly.
Hanzhong County is bound to win" Zhong Wendao can surrender obediently, and he will give this person a chance to spare the life of the family, but this person insists on not surrendering, that is, he will fight for some losses.
Of course, "when the time comes, a cleaning of personnel is indispensable, including the heads of Zhong Wendao's entire clan."
The horn sounded. Tens of thousands of Shu soldiers marched in formation and slowly came to the head of the city.
They are all red sè clothes, and their momentum is amazing, "The city is all lost."
"Let people hold the armor and banners of the trapping camp" and the head "Continue to shout to the city, and if there is no response within half an hour, our army will attack the city again" will never surrender at that time, and will kill them all!" Wang Hongyi's eyes were cold, and he said in a deep voice.
In a moment, a high-voiced officer, escorted by several personal soldiers, rode towards the city wall and "ran to a distance of a hundred paces from the city" and came to a halt.
And there were pro-soldiers who "threw a large number of armor on the ground."
The officer shouted to the city: "Listen to the city, I will be told by the order of the Duke of Shu that this is the order of the Duke of Shu and so on" This is the duty of the Duke of Shu to be ordered by heaven "is for Allah, and the meritocracy and ability are not stingy to reward those who are virtuous and talented, and if the city guards and the generals, if they lead their troops to annex, the lighter one will be appointed to his original post, and the heavier one will be rewarded." ”
"Guo Wentong resisted Wang Shi, our army was defeated, killed nine hundred camps, and beheaded the main general Fu Zicheng, at this time it was shown to you and others, this is the heart of the Duke of Shu who loves the people, and then dares to resist, and the army invades the city." ”
This voice spread far away, and the city and the city were all clearly heard, looking at Guo Jun's clothes and armor and head below, in the city of Hanzhong County, the panic immediately spread.
The first to bear the brunt is these defenders on the head of the city, who originally relied on resistance, that is, Guo Wentong will reinforce the army" At this time, hearing this, the fighting spirit of hard support was almost lost.
These soldiers are in a state of desperation.
Although there were nearly 10,000 people in the city, everyone felt that the day was not guaranteed, and if they continued like this, they would only use trebuchets to bombard the city walls, and they would soon be able to break through a gap.
At that time, "40,000 troops poured into the city", how could there be a way to live?
"The lord is still motionless?", from the head of the city to the first stone step in the city, there are two people, one of them is the guard who protects the Taishou, and the other is Li He, the confidant of the Taishou.
Li He's appearance is embarrassed, his face is gray, and his eyes are even redder, obviously he has not slept well in the past few days, as Zhong Wendao's henchman, he can still sleep steadily in this situation, that is strange.
The guards who were stopped by him heard Li He's question, and hurriedly replied: "Lord Li, as soon as the Lord came down from the city, this is what he looks like, why don't you go over later?"
"Okay, go about your business, this official is waiting here. Li He nodded and said helplessly.
The guards stepped aside.
At this time, someone outside the city began to shout again, and Li He found that the body of the lord Zhong Wendao trembled, "Obviously awakened."
Just in the distance, Zhong Wendao motioned for him to go over.
"Lord, persuade you to surrender outside, can the lord have a countermeasure?", Li He walked over and asked directly, "At this time, tactful words and polite words can be waived.
"Li He, give the order to go down, prepare to open the city, and surrender to Wang Hongyi. Zhong Wendao was silent for a while and said.
"Lord ......", "Zhong Wendao's words" made Li He startled, and he originally wanted to persuade him, but he immediately swallowed it, carefully observed his expression, and saw that it was not a joke, and couldn't help but say in reverse: i, lord, can you think clearly? This is your inheritance! And maybe the Qin army was not defeated. ”
Zhong Wendao shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Hanzhong City can't support it, if it goes on like this, not to mention that if you can't wait for the Qin army to come again, the Shu army will have broken through, I think I understand" even if you wait until the Qin army comes again" is just a surrender." He walked down, shook his hand and said, "Say to the outside, Hanzhong has descended, make a little preparation to open the city and welcome them into the city." ”
Speak, and say no more.
Looking at him walking all the way, Li He felt that Zhong Wendao's back suddenly became sluggish.
However, now is not the time to sigh, the shouting of the column stopped again, I don't know if the Shu army will attack the city next" Li He hurriedly came to the head of the city and expressed his surrender to the Shu army under the city.
"It's just Wudu County. When the city was wide open, Zhong Wendao was dressed in a royal robe, holding a roster of great seals and other things, and walked out to greet them, Wang Hongyi thought secretly in his heart.
Five days later, Wang Hongyi, the Taishou Mansion of Hanzhong, was standing in the huā garden, looking at the huā garden in the sun, thinking with the undulating thoughts in his heart.
In the fifteenth year of Chuizheng, Wang Hongde's Sandong Universiade ended in the previous life, Li Chengye was opposed, Wang Hongde was defeated and imprisoned for ten years, and now it is also the fifteenth year of Chuizheng, but it is definitely possible to unify Shudi, one year ahead of schedule.
According to the situation in the previous life, two years later, that is, the eighteenth year of Chuizheng, Guo Wentong was basically unified in Guanzhong.
Now that it has been completely fought for two years, the idea of attacking Qin, with Guo Wentong retreating, is no longer there.
It's September now, and this year there is no gap, so we must relocate and reclaim the wheat before midwinter in order to harvest a bumper harvest next year.
Next year, there will be two roads, one is to capture the mediocrity, the ancient name "the mediocre people are good at fighting, Qin and Chu are invincible", although it is impossible now, but it is also a large county, can recruit tens of thousands of jīng soldiers.
There is also the possibility of going down the river and attacking Yiling.
When I think of Yiling, I think of the Battle of Yiling in the history of the earth.
The Battle of Yiling is one of the three major battles in the history of the Three Kingdoms, and these three major battles are the Battle of Guandu, the Battle of Chibi, and the Battle of Yiling.
The battle of Guandu is the battle of Cao Cào's national fortune, the battle of Chibi is the battle of the national fortune of the Three Kingdoms, and the battle of Yiling can be tied, of course, it is also related to the national fortune of Shu and Wu.
Yiling is the only land passage from Shu to Jing.
Erupting in the first year of Zhangwu of the Shu Han Dynasty (221) and ending in the second year of Zhangwu of the Shu Han Dynasty (222), it was a war fought by Eastern Wu (Sun Quan) and Shu Han (Liu Bei) during the Three Kingdoms period for the five southern counties of Jingzhou, which were strategically important.
"Yizhou is dangerous, fertile for thousands of miles, the land of abundance, and Gaozu became an emperor because of it............ The general led the people of Yizhou out of Qinchuan, and the people dared not to eat pot pulp, "to welcome the general?" If so, then the hegemony can be achieved, and the Han family can prosper. Liu Bei hurriedly sent troops when Shu was not prepared, which was related to the battle of the national fortunes of Shu and Wu, and the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River became the main passage between the two countries.
Yiling is located in the high mountains and mountains, it is difficult to deploy the troops, in the case of the Wu army holding the important place and not fighting, "the Shu army has to set up dozens of camps on the Wuxia, Jianping to Yiling line hundreds of miles.
Therefore, the logistics were difficult, the battalion of a hundred miles, the troops were scattered, and they were defeated by Lu Xun, and Liu Bei was annoyed and ashamed of the defeat of Yiling, "I couldn't afford to be ill, and I died in the White Emperor City, and the battle of Yiling ended like this."
The Battle of Yiling was Liu Bei's last battle, and it was also the most thoroughly lost, losing the national fortune at once, and also losing the possibility of Sanxing in the Han Dynasty.
It's just that the situation is different now, "there is neither Wei nor Wu, and the army led by Wang Hongyi is equivalent to Liu Bei's troops in the official history" are 40,000, but the situation is very different.
As long as the 40,000 army occupies Yiling" and Shangyong responds, it will be able to attack from both sides and capture Jingbei in one fell swoop.
"Lord!" The accompanying shì guard, who walked quickly, saw Wang Hongyi in a trance, and bowed down and said: "Wudu County is too guarded by Lu Bei" to send an envoy to ask for surrender. ”
On the fifth day of obtaining Hanzhong, Wudu County sent an envoy to surrender on his own initiative, very quickly, Wang Hongyi "oh", and woke up.
Wang Hongyi listened, turned around, pondered for a while, smiled to himself, and said: "It's difficult to break the heart!"
The accompanying shì guard responded and returned to give the order.
Wang Hongyi went back and immediately put out the guard of honor, only to see the steps around him, every five steps, each standing a personal soldier, all standing solemnly with a knife, so that people could not be looked at.
This majesty and grandeur came out at once.
Under the guidance of a eunuch, the messenger followed behind, and when he saw this situation, he couldn't help but change, and when he reached the hall, he saw a eunuch leading him in.
The envoy only relied on his feelings, and as soon as he entered, he "fell to the ground:" Meet the Duke of Shu!"
