Chapter 197 Pang Kuo's Helplessness

Chapter 196: Pang Kuo's Helplessness

In the 15th year of Qianyuan, on April [-]th, Xue Rengui fought against Chen Ting, and Chen Li's [-] Chen army was wiped out. In this way, there is no force in the entire Runan County that can stop Xue Rengui.

After tidying up the Shenting battlefield, Xue Rengui led the army to Pingyu City. The Pingyu defender planned to resist at first, but when he saw Chen Li who was pushed out by Deng Jun, he felt more sad than heartbroken. After thinking about it, he still decided to surrender in Kaesong. In this way, this important town in the south of Chen State, the Runan County Government, fell into the hands of Deng Jun.

When Xue Rengui led the generals into the Runan Prefect's Mansion in Pingyu City, he showed a satisfied smile. The Battle of Runan can only be described as smooth.

"Wang Yanzhang, Li Cunxiao listen to the order!" Xue Rengui didn't care about taking a rest, and quickly ordered to the two generals under his command.

"The end is here!" The two replied.

"Order Wang Yanzhang to lead his troops to attack Xiyang, Gushi, Xinyang, Yilu, Song State, Ruyin, Xiyang, Sishan, Chengfu, and Shansang, and then move troops to Chengfu," Xue Rengui said.

"Here!" Wang Yanzhang replied.

After arranging Wang Yanzhang, Xue Rengui ordered Li Cunxiao: "Order Li Cunxiao to lead the troops to attack Geling, Xincai, Baoxin, Xinxi, Anyang, Geyang, Qisi, Yuanlu, Fubo, and Shenxian. Then move the troops to City Father."

"Here!" Li Cunxiao responded.

Xue Rengui sat in Pingyu, and then sent four generals under his command to take the cities of Runan.

At this time, the Wei army was still fighting in Xinping City. Since the capture of Yangxia, Xie Xun took out all the soldiers and horses, and then the Wei army made no progress.

"Trash, after fighting for so long, there is still no progress!" Pang Kuo lost his temper and scolded the generals under his command in the big tent of the Wei army.

In order to break Xinping City, Pang Kuo also wrote a letter to the king of Wei, and sent tens of thousands more, bringing the number of Wei troops who attacked Chen to more than 5. As for the Chen army, in the battle of Yangxia, they defeated 7 Chen troops. , and the remaining [-] Chen troops were to be stationed in Xinping and Ningping respectively. At this time, there were only [-] Chen troops in Xinping City, and the Wei army, in addition to the [-] Chen troops assigned to guard Ningping, had [-] [-] troops were placed under Xinping City. In this way, with four times the strength of Chen's army, the fierce attack still made no progress for more than half a month.

All the generals of Wei lowered their heads and remained silent. Chen Jun's resistance was too tenacious. Every time Wei Jun attacked the top of the city, he was beaten down by Chen Jun without accident, and even several times he almost broke the city. His desperate resistance failed.

At this time, a messenger from the Wei army came in, knelt on one knee and said, "I want to report to Da Sima, there is news from Runan that Xue Rengui, a general of the Deng army, defeated the Chen army in Shenting, and has now captured Pingyu City, the governing place of Runan. And Xue Rengui's four generals will attack the rest of the cities in Runan, and the situation in Runan is settled!"

"What! Deng Jun is so fast?" General Wei Jun Feng Kui exclaimed. The speed of Deng Jun's march was really beyond his expectation. The entire Runan County was almost occupied.

"Hehe, what's so surprising, now all the main force of Chen Jun is held back by our army, it would be strange if Deng Jun is unhappy." Wei Jun general Sima Song smiled wryly, yes, more than [-]% of Chen Guo's soldiers Madu was restrained by the Wei army on the front line of Xinping and Ningping, and there were not many troops in the south. If Deng's army did not progress fast, then Deng would not be able to survive today.

Thinking of this, Sima Song began to doubt for the first time whether it was a wrong choice to join forces with Deng Guo. Wei Guo had already lost [-] to [-] soldiers and horses since the start of the war, but apart from capturing several cities to the north of Chen Jun , there was no progress, but Deng Jun took down the entire Runan County almost effortlessly. No matter how you look at it, it was Wei Guo's loss.

"Da Sima, why don't we invite Deng Jun to raid Chencheng." At this time, Chu Fei, who was the military adviser of Wei Jun, made a suggestion, that is, ask Deng Jun to send troops to raid Chencheng.

"Will Deng Jun raid Chencheng?" Pang Kuo frowned.

Chu Fei nodded, and said: "Yes, Da Sima is currently guarded by Xie Xun on the front line of Xinping and Ningping. Although as long as our army continues to attack, it is only a matter of time to break through Xinping, but this will cost a lot of money." I am afraid that the time will be unknown, and now that the Qi army has attacked Pengcheng, if we cannot take Chen Guo before Han Qing takes Pengcheng, then it will be even more difficult for us to take Peijun, so at this time the last The best way is to ask Deng Jun to attack Chencheng, as long as Chencheng is captured, the Chen army on the front line of Xinping and Ningping will collapse without fighting."

"But in this way, the gold, silver, money and food in the entire Chencheng will fall into the hands of Deng Guo." Pang Kuo has no opinion on asking Deng Jun to attack Chencheng. All of Chen Cheng's treasures would fall into the hands of Deng Jun. Even if Deng Jun gave up Chen Cheng at that time, Pang Kuo would still feel unwilling.

"Alas..." Chu Fei sighed. He understood what Pang Kuo meant, so why would he be willing to give up all of Chen Cheng's treasures to Deng Guo? You must know that Chen Guo has established the country for more than 200 years. The city doesn't know how much treasure it has accumulated, but there is no other way. The Wei army can't continue to spend on the front line of Xinping and Ningping. This time, the attack on the Chen country itself is to compete with the Qi country, so there is still time for the Wei army to spend it. Ah, quick fixes are king.

Chu Fei said: "Grand Sima, now this is the best way to quickly destroy Chen. If the Qi army captures Pengcheng and then Peijun, then I, Da Wei, will not be worth the loss if we send troops this time. I hope Da Sima will think twice." .”

"Alas..." Pang Kuo sighed after some ideological struggle, and decided to listen to Chu Fei, and sent someone to Pingyu to ask Xue Rengui to send troops.

At this time, Deng Jun had already dispatched most of the cities in Runan, and according to the agreement with Wei State before the war, once Xue Rengui took Runan County, he had to move his troops to the border of Pei County to attack Pei for Wei State. With the help of the county, most of Runan has been captured now, and the remaining cities are only a matter of time, so Xue Rengui plans to lead his troops to Chengfu City soon.

But at this moment, Pang Kuo sent someone to ask Xue Rengui to send troops to attack Chencheng, which made Xue Rengui very surprised. Didn't you agree that you would fight Chen Jun, I would fight Runan, and then we would fight Pei County together? I want to fight Chencheng by myself.

Xue Rengui, who couldn't figure it out, immediately called Xun You, a military strategist in the army, and wanted to ask his opinion.

After Xun You finished listening, he first laughed and said: "General, Wei Jun is in a hurry."

"Wei Jun is in a hurry? What do you mean, I hope the military adviser can enlighten me!" Xue Rengui said.

Xun You smiled, and said: "General, Wei Guo sent troops this time to compete with the Qi army for time, and the goal of the competition is Pei County. If the Wei army can take Chen County before the Qi army breaks through Pengcheng, then Pei The county is in the pocket of the Wei State, but once the Qi army breaks through Pengcheng first, then Pei County will probably have no chance with the Wei State. Now that the Qi army has attacked Pengcheng, it is about to break the city. Do you think Pang Kuo is in a hurry? ."

When Xue Rengui heard it, he suddenly realized, and said: "No wonder Pang Kuo suddenly sent someone to invite this general to attack Chencheng, but the military commander, shall we go? According to the agreement, Chenjun belongs to Wei State, and it is no good for us to take Chencheng." .”

Xun You shook his head and said: "The general's words are wrong, this time we really have to help Pang Kuo, if we refuse, and the Qi army takes Pengcheng one step ahead of Wei, so that Peijun , then the Wei State may directly withdraw its troops. In this way, the Chen army on the front lines of Xinping and Ningping will move south. If our army wants to occupy Runan, there will be troubles again. Besides, who said that attacking Chencheng is not good for us? Yes, that's right, we can't occupy Chencheng, but don't forget, Chencheng is rich and rich, with countless gold and silver treasures, as long as we take Chencheng, these things will be ours, even Wei Jun can't say anything .”

After Xue Rengui heard this, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, thinking in his heart: Yes, Chen Cheng was captured by this general, so what's the problem with this general taking away Chen Cheng's treasure?As long as you don't dominate Chen Cheng and don't leave.

So Xue Rengui nodded, and said: "Okay, this general will send an order to all the ministries. After all the cities in Runan have been captured, we will go north to attack Chencheng."
