Royal Road - Chapter 196

[Chapter 195 | City]

Standing on the towering city wall that was three feet and five feet high and six feet wide, Liu Yao put his hands behind his back and looked down at the vast city that could not be seen at a glance.

This is the capital of the Qin and Han dynasties, and it is also a mighty man, the afterglow and symbol of glory.

The western capital of Chang’an is covered with three broad roads and twelve open gates.

Such a heroic city was so simple that it was captured by himself.

Rao is Liu Yao, who once attacked and killed the emperor of Jin, and he couldn’t help feeling a lot of emotion in his heart.

“General, the Weiyang Palace has already been captured. However, the treasures in the palace are not as many as imagined. It should have been looted by the Duan Xianbei before. The two counties of Fufeng and Fengyi have already sent troops and are ready to attack the city. Our army There are only 8,000 troops, and if there are no reinforcements, they will definitely not be able to hold it.”

Liu Yao did not turn around, and just stared at the Xiongcheng under his feet, before he sighed for a long time: “If Chang’an can be obtained, why worry about the Han Dynasty?”

In fact, he also thought about it.

Knowing that the capture of Chang’an this time was really a coincidence.

Hejian King was defeated and fled to Taibai Mountain to avoid disaster, but was rescued by his subordinates and took Chang’an instead.

As a result, Qi Qi, the prefect of the three counties, sent troops together with the generals sent by the King of the East Sea, and finally the King of Hejian was trapped to death.

Shortly after sitting alone in Chang’an, he responded to the call to Luoyang, but was killed on the way.

After so many chaotic battles, the defense of the Western Capital was inevitably slack. In addition, the war in Jingzhou was urgent, and many defenders were dispatched to the south.

This made the Huns and Han kingdoms, who had been sharpening their knives for a long time, stare at the opportunity.

Taking advantage of the solar eclipse on the first day of the seventh month, Liu Yao led 8,000 light cavalry to drive westward.

However, when they invaded Chang’an, it was extremely difficult to defend.

Not to mention the garrisoned troops of several counties in Yongzhou, the tens of thousands of people in the city are enough to bring them a deadly threat.

Instead of being trapped in an isolated city, it is better to evacuate with the property, like those true nomads, as long as the money and silk people are small, they don’t care about attacking the city.

Although this is contrary to Liu Yuan’s original intention, it is the best arrangement for their team.

Sure enough, the man behind him sighed softly: “As long as the generals and horses are still there, this Western Capital will one day return to the general’s hands. Now Hedong is the time to hire people. If you waste your troops on defending the city, but It’s not good for the general. What’s more, Feng Yi sent troops to help, which is a great opportunity to seize.”

I knew it clearly in my heart, but it was hard to let go.

This is the first time Liu Yao has entered such a large city, and it is very exciting to be able to control such a magnificent city with his own hands.

It’s a pity to just plunder money.

However, no matter how unbearable it was in his heart, he knew the seriousness, and reluctantly glanced at Chang’an City before turning his head: “What Shuya said is very true, just capturing Chang’an is enough to get the favor of the father and the king. It’s not the general’s responsibility.”

His cavalry was moving too fast, and the reinforcements behind could not keep up.

How to defend the city without reinforcements?

Rather than forcefully waiting for someone to come to help, it is better to retreat first, and when Feng Yi’s troops and horses did not respond in time, they turned back and captured Feng Yi County!

Feng Yi is no less than Chang’an, it is the main road connecting Sizhou and Yongzhou, and it is adjacent to Tongguan.

If Feng Yi was obtained, Si and Yong states would be able to get through, and then encircle Hedong County.

It is very important for the next plan of the Han Kingdom.

Therefore, he gave up Chang’an, and it was not his fault.

And capturing Feng Yi was another great achievement.

Adding the two together, why won’t you get Liu Yuan’s reward?

And the best strategy of this circle is completely from this new Jin people who voted for him.

Approving eyes circled the young man in front of him, Liu Yao smiled and said, “If Shuya didn’t think of a strategy like taking advantage of the solar eclipse to attack the city, how could I have easily achieved this victory? In this battle, Jun Ju is very powerful!

” The tall and handsome young man smiled slightly: “If the general was not suspicious, how could he have achieved such a victory? The general treats a certain person like a countryman, and a certain self

should repay him with a countryman .”

of modesty and pride.

Liu Yao also likes to use Jin people, which is very similar to Liu Yuan.

In his view, the Huns were always outnumbered, and it would be extremely difficult to occupy the Central Plains without a large number of Jin families.

And this Zhang Shuya who came to vote for him, although his family is not obvious, but he is familiar with the high gate of Bingzhou, and has a deep sense of military affairs.

If it is used well, I am afraid it is not only that.

Suppressing the fumbling in his heart, Liu Yao laughed: “With Shuya’s words, why can’t Feng Yi be able to do it? And this time, the pretentious thief from Shangdang won’t be able to hold back. After defeating Feng Yi, maybe the king will turn to attack Bingzhou, and then it will be the time to make achievements!”

Zhang Dian’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he nodded politely: “What the general said is very true. May the general seize the party and attack Luoyang, Build another miracle.”

These words scratched Liu Yao’s itch, he patted Zhang Dian’s shoulder with a smile, and he turned around and strode down the city.

This rude action made Zhang Dian’s eyebrows twist slightly, but he quickly let go.

Stepping lightly, he followed the footsteps of the Xiongnu man.

As long as he keeps up with this person, why worry that his goal cannot be achieved?

Coming to Sizhou to vote for the Xiongnu was the plan he made when he left Youzhou.

Since he hates the Taiyuan Wang family, it is impossible to return to Bingzhou, and it may not be safe to join the imperial court.

It’s better to start over and make another plan.

But who to vote for, he did think carefully before finally deciding.

To serve Liu Yuan, the king of Han, I am afraid that his wealth and fame will not be taken seriously.

And Liu Yuan’s sons also liked to use Xiongnu, and did not pay much attention to Jin ministers.

Therefore, he chose Liu Yao as his benefactor.

This person is also from the royal family. Although he is a fake son, he is highly valued by Liu Yuan, and he has outstanding combat power and is close to Jin people.

I voted for him, although the ranking points are slightly insufficient, but I would rather be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix, and it is easier to get ahead.

Moreover, there are also hidden dangers within the Xiongnu. If Liu He, the heir apparent, succeeds, he still doesn’t know what trouble will happen.

This Liu Yao can be a live chess player.

And this battle of Chang’an was the start he carefully prepared.

At that time, when the emperor died violently and the hundred officials were separated, a few of the supervising officials under Taishi Ling fell on the Xiongnu side.

As for the Shangdang solar eclipse, he always felt strange. After careful questioning, they deduced that there might be a solar eclipse in July based on the food points of Zhengdan.

And he, like that Liang Zixi, approached Liu Yao and asked him to choose to attack the city after the solar eclipse.

It really came down!

This battle not only showed Liu Yao’s trust in him, but also broke the tricks of Shangdang.

After the settlement of Fengyi County, why should the Hunchun army no longer attack the party!

A cold smile appeared on Zhang Dian’s lips.

He had heard about Qiniang’s fate and the news that Liang’s and Wang’s marriage had collapsed.

But that’s all, how can he vent the hatred in his heart?

Taking the revenge of his wife and leaving his hometown is not so simple.

That Liang Zixi still owes him a lot!

The turbid smell of blood rushed into the nasal cavity, Zhang Dian’s nose twitched twice, without squinting, stepping over the dirty blood under his feet, he followed closely behind Liu Yao.

“Captain Yi, the Huns have already withdrawn for seventy miles. The remaining cities do not have enough grain to support thousands of troops and horses. This time, the siege of Jinyang has been completely resolved!” , Linghu Kuang was full of excitement.

This battle is really fun!

After the eclipse of the sun, he and Yiyan attacked Qixian at the same time, and the Shangdang Thunderbolt assisted the attack.

I don’t know if they were frightened by the last battle of Yangyi, but the Huns defenders in Qixian City only lasted for half a day, then abandoned the city and fled.

The cavalry in ambush immediately chased their tails, reducing the number of Xiongnu soldiers who broke out of the siege by another 20%. They did not even dare to enter the cities along the way, and fled in all directions.

It takes a lot of hard work to gather these fallen soldiers.

And the Great Wilderness of Li Shi has aggravated the burden of the Xiongnu in Bingzhou. I am afraid that in a short period of time, no one will dare to invade Jinyang!

This is a big win!

Since returning to Jinyang, he has been fighting for half a year, and once again joining forces with Yiyan, Linghu Kuang remembered the joyous feelings of that day.

The soldiers and horses of the Shangdang are so different from the officers and soldiers!

If every Jin army can do this, why worry about the uncertainty of the world?

!

Although it was a big victory, Yiyan’s expression did not change, and he nodded coldly: “If you retake Qixian, the Huns will be out of food. Jingling and other cities can be slowly planned. Let’s consolidate the front line of Jinyang first.”

This is the most important thing at present .

thing.

Autumn grain is too late to plant, but grass, hemp, and even vegetables can be made up. If the land is cleared in time, winter wheat can also be saved.

Jinyang was besieged for a year, and there was a huge shortage of food and people, and it was urgent to recuperate.

However, these are not the things that generals like Linghu Kuang are concerned about.

He excitedly said: “It’s time to consolidate and consolidate the surrounding counties. The time of chaos in Xinxing County is not short, and there is Baibu Xianbei behind it. If it can’t be solved as soon as possible, I am afraid that Jinyang will be attacked by the enemy…”

While discussing future plans, I saw a personal soldier hurriedly walked into the county office and said something to Yiyan.

In those gray-blue eyes, there seemed to be a sudden burst of energy, and Yi Chang stood up.

“Captain Yi?” Linghu Kuang was stunned for a moment, what happened?

What’s going on?

“My lord returns from Luoyang, I’m going to greet him.” Yi Yan’s tone was not a discussion at all, but a simple announcement.

Linghu Kuang blinked his eyes: “Uh, since the mansion has returned, I too…”

Before he could finish his words, he felt a chill on his back.

Yi Yan’s eyes looked like blue wolves, and said coldly, “General Linghu should stay in Qi County and take care of the overall situation.”

“…” What else could Linghu Kuang say?

I had to watch the man walk away quickly.

Is this because he is afraid that he will steal his credit?

Confused scratching his chin, Linghu Kuang no longer tangled, and immersed himself in military affairs.

※

From Luoyang back to Bingzhou, it is still the same way as Taihangxing.

However, the speed of the return journey was a little faster than when it came.

This kind of feeling of returning to the heart is not only for Liang Feng, but also for others!

After all, the Xingdao is not easy to walk, but the road did not stop. The convoy drove through the narrow mountain road and entered the Taihang Pass, the gateway to Bingzhou.

As long as you get out of this level, it is Bingzhou.

However, no one would have thought that someone was waiting in Taihang Pass.

“It’s too late, please ask your lord to make atonement.” Wearing full-body armor, Yi Yan still knelt on one knee on the ground, as if begging for sin, but also like Su Wei.

What he said was no longer “subordinate”, but was renamed “last general” like everyone else.

Looking at the tall and tall figure, Liang Feng felt his body tremble, as if his whole body was not right.

Squeezing his thigh with his hand, he took a deep breath and asked, “Is Jinyang done?”
