Chapter 140: Collision (Part II)
There was no word for a long time, and in the early morning, the people of the Ten Rans asked to see him again.
"Ask him to enter the account. Wang Hongyi listened to the rumbling sound in the distance and said calmly.
A moment later, the hundred households of the Thirteen Divisions entered the tent.
"Where is the Qin army at this time, and how far is it from Hanzhong?" Wang Hongyi asked.
"Lord, the Qin army is still two hundred miles away from here. ”
"Two hundred miles?" Wang Hongyi stood up, paced a few steps in place, turned around and said: "Continue to pay attention to the situation of the Qin army, pay attention at any time, every two hours, report it once, this is related to the deployment of this battle, not a matter of xiǎo, you should pay more and more attention." ”
"Yes!" the hundred households of the Thirteenth Division hurriedly bowed down.
Standing in front of the tent, looking at the slightly hazy city in the distance, Wang Hongyi's face sneered.
"My lord. Someone outside the tent spoke.
Wang Hongyi heard Fan Liuhai's voice and said, "Here, what are you doing outside?"
"Yes, my lord. "The tent was picked up, and the burly Fan Liuhai walked in from the outside, in fact, even if he didn't come, there would be a task for him, if he asked to see him now......
Wang Hongyi's eyes flashed, and he asked, "Do you have something to say to Lone?"
"My lord, the minister is here to ask you for war. Fan Liuhai said in a deep voice in front of Wang Hongyi: "Although the minister is not a general, this charge and battle, he can still fight with people, the minister is not afraid of death, please give the lord an order, let the minister go to attack the city!"
"Please fight?", nodded somewhat understandingly, Wang Hongyi smiled slightly: "Do you think that the siege is too slow?"
"My lord, the minister thinks so, now the boulder is bombarding, but Hanzhong is driving the people to repair it, this comes and goes, delaying time, it is better to attack the city with a large army, and go together. Fan Liuhai said.
This is clearly an order, but it is actually a dedication.
Wang Hongyi attaches great importance to Fan Liuhai, he has the potential to become a first-rate general in the world, such a general, Wang Hongyi has never been treated badly.
Wang Hongyi shook his head and smiled, and said, "Siege of the city, Lone has his own arrangements, you have been following Lone's side, for you, Lone will not ignore it, the siege of the city is not sent to you to do, because there is a more important task, I want Jiāo to do it with you." ”
Hearing this, he saluted: "The lord of the courtesy of the lord decrees." ”
"Guo Wen's troops are extremely fast, and they have already broken through Liangchuan County and attacked Hanzhong, I will order you to lead your headquarters to Wushan and intercept the enemy army for five days. ”
Osan is a county seat, the terrain is surrounded by mountains on three sides, only Osan is a horseshoe-shaped opening. "A road leads from this opening all the way to Hanzhong.
In addition to this, there are high mountains in front of the three fronts.
This checkpoint is steep and has two stone walls, which are guarded according to the mountain and blocked at the entrance, although it is not too difficult, but it is indeed more than enough to resist for three days.
Fan Liuhai knew the geography of the art of war, and after listening to the words of the lord, he just thought about it and knew the key, and said at the moment: "The lord can rest assured, the supply of the ministers is far easier than that of the enemy. ”
Hearing this, Wang Hongyi was overjoyed and said: "That's what it means, you can lead my military order and set out today." ”
"No!" should be kowtowing to the sea of greed!
After receiving the military order, Fan Liuhai quickly retired and left.
Listening to the rumbling sound in the distance, Wang Hongyi couldn't sit still in the tent, stood up and walked out of the tent.
"Lord. The guards on both sides immediately saluted, but were stopped by Wang Hongyi.
"Go and ask how the siege is going. Wang Hongyi said.
"Yes, Lord. "Someone went to the front to investigate.
After a while, the news was brought back.
Although a fierce attack was launched, the originally strong city walls were repaired, and there were people who repaired them, and they were helpless for a while.
Wang Hongyi immediately ordered: "Pass the Gu order, the thunderbolt car will attack the city wall, hit the mén machine and use it, and use the thunderbolt car to attack the city wall, and there will be a shortage." "Concentrate on bombardment at once, don't skimp on stone bullets, don't give the enemy any respite!"
"No. ”
The military order was like a mountain, and the ten thunderbolt cars in reserve were pushed forward, placed in front of the city, aimed in the same direction, and with a command, the boulders were thrown one after another, not giving people a chance to breathe at all.
Listening to the rumbling in the distance, Wang Hongyi, who was in the camp tent, sat down again.
Although the unfavorable news of the previous attack on Hanzhong was suppressed, Wang Hongyi knew that it had spread to all places.
At that time, if he immediately captured Hanzhong City, the situation would change greatly, and Guo Wentong knew that he had captured Hanzhong and his strength was strong, so I am afraid that he might not come.
Now that Guo Wentong has gone out of the army, even if he immediately captures Hanzhong City, Guo Wentong will think that he has suffered a lot of losses in common sense, and he will not know the true strength of the Shu army, and he covets the two pieces of dragon sword and Shu land, and he is even more afraid that he will march into Qinchuan in the future, and he will inevitably be unable to hold it back and rush straight over!
Wang Hongyi will attack now.
Of course, it is almost impossible to really surround a city and make it impassable.
Hanzhong City covers an extremely large area, and even if an army of 40,000 wants to surround a county town all around, it will not be able to surround it a few times at all.
The so-called siege of a city is nothing more than the siege of a city.
Others can send up to patrol with soldiers.
At this time, it was the time of siege, and it was the most chaotic time, and there were few people in Hanzhong who went out to ask for help, jumped down from the city wall, and stood out of the siege.
Wang Hongyi besieged the county town of Hanzhong, not worried that someone would break through and ask for help, but was worried that no one would ask for help.
"It's just that I don't know how long Hanzhong City can last?" Wang Hongyi muttered to himself with a slight mockery.
Just as Wang Hongyi expected, in the city of Hanzhong County, as early as the beginning of the onslaught of the army, the people's hearts were already floating, and there were constantly wounded soldiers, carried down from the city wall, and the places where they were bombarded by boulders were full of corpses.
Zhong Wendao stood at the city wall, frowning, listening to the rumbling outside, looking at the continuous army below, the Shu army camp was built rigorously, and the surrounding trees, firewood and grass had already been cut down, one was for construction, and the other was to prevent the enemy from attacking or approaching covertly.
Zhong Wendao was standing at the top at this time, and he didn't look calm two months ago, and the new wrinkles on his forehead almost became "Chuan, zigzag."
Li He came up from below, saw Zhong Wendao's figure at a glance, and hurriedly walked over to salute: "Lord, I heard that you are looking for a minister?"
"Li He, if Hanzhong City continues like this, I'm afraid it won't be able to hold it, and now the city walls are cracked in many places, and if it is bombarded for another five days, I am afraid that it will collapse in many places, and I will no longer be able to resist. Zhong Wendao paced with a heavy face and said, Li He is a Wenchen, although he is Zhong Wendao's confidant, in a short period of time, military intelligence will not reach his ears.
I knew that Wang Hongyi's army outside the city was attacking the city very fiercely, but I didn't know that the matter would be so serious.
"Lord, why do you have to say these depressing words! Hanzhong City is besieged here, how can Guo Shuai sit idly by? Hold on for a few more days, and the Qin army will definitely come to help," Li He said.
Zhong Wendao nodded, his heart was very heavy, what Li He said was also his last hope.
I thought that the walls of Hanzhong City were thick, as long as it was closed, and the food in the city was extremely abundant, and then Wang Hongyi's 40,000 army would be dragged for a month or two, and there would be nothing to do here, and Wang Hongyi's 40,000 garrison army would definitely not be able to drag it out.
I don't want this thunderbolt car to be so powerful, the thick walls of the strong city are also shaking.
"Li He, I don't know Guo Shuai, when will he lead the troops to support ............" is full of expectations, day by day, but he still can't expect reinforcements, which makes Zhong Wendao a little uncertain.
Thinking about it, he had close contacts with Qin Di at the beginning, and he was more optimistic about Guo Wentong, but when Wang Hongyi sent a letter, he resolutely refused, but now he thinks about it, but he is reckless, but unfortunately, he regrets it now.
So far, if you change your appearance, I am afraid that Wang Hongyi will be suspicious, and Guo Wentong will be even more angry.
Besides, the Chūn Chuan forces made Zhong Wendao more acceptable.
Guan Dong is rich, but the dragon sword is much poorer here, Zhong Wendao has already thought that even if the Qin army swallows the dragon sword, Guo Wentong will not be able to put the real jīng sharp and henchmen in this place that is not the foundation.
At that time, Zhong Wendao will inevitably be entrusted with management, even if he can't manage the East and West Yizhou, the dragon sword jiāo in his hands will be much stronger than now.
Although Li He didn't know what the lord Zhong Wendao thought of at this moment, he heard Zhong Wendao's words and said persuadly: "Lord, Guo Dashuai will definitely come with a large army, you don't have to worry too much." ”
That being said, he himself is like a fire.
"Report!" Soldiers suddenly came in outside to make an urgent report, and when the two of them heard it, they immediately became more and more anxious.
"The offensive of Wang Hongyi's army is even more fierce than before!" At this time, Li He didn't care about comforting the lord, and his face became extremely ugly.
Taishou Zhong Wendao's heart was originally panicked, and he forcibly stabilized it.
"No, I can't say, the previous request for help was not delivered to Guo Shuai.
, Zhong Wendao instructed: "Li He, you immediately choose a few people with good skills, bring my handwritten letters, and find an opportunity to go out of the city to deliver the letter, just say that the city can only last for a week at most." ”
Li He also felt that it was not a long-term strategy to continue to sit still like this. So, he responded: "The minister obeys." ”
Go out and look for the dead.
Such a county town is also the foundation of Zhong Wendao, and his subordinates naturally have a group of henchmen with good skills.
Although he may not have the ability to be a general, he is quick-witted, agile, good at equestrianism, and most importantly, loyal, and is a group of people who have been trained from xiǎo.
"This is a letter I wrote to Guo Wentong, it is a matter of survival in Hanzhong, you wait for an opportunity to go out of the city and deliver the letter to Guo Wentong's hands, the sooner the better. Facing the few people standing respectfully in front of him, Zhong Wendao said.
Several people hurriedly bowed down and vowed to deliver the letter. The same letters, given to them separately, let them break out from different places.
"I hope Guo Wentong can come to the rescue, and the Qin army can arrive earlier. Otherwise, it will be difficult to defend the city. Looking at these people leaving, Zhong Wendao was silent, and after half a sound, he sighed and said, and suddenly, a thought that made him feel ashamed.
"If it's really too late, before the city is broken, it's better to fall!"
No matter how shameful and disgraceful it is, it is better than raiding the family and exterminating the clan.
