Traveling through Chenghan Xiandi, fortunately I have a simulator

Chapter 156
On the second day after the Patriarch of the Wang Family left Shangjun, Sui Gu began to mobilize [-] soldiers under his command. Although his purpose this time was to feintly attack Chang'an and force back Zhu Jun's army, he also needed to do a full set of appearances, so he dispatched the entire army.

It’s just that neither the Patriarch of the Wang family nor Sui Gu knew that the imperial court not only had Zhu Jun’s army, but also an army led by Xu Rong. Since this army had never stayed in Chang’an, it was not well known. It's not clear, otherwise they wouldn't be able to do such a stupid thing.

In fact, the Patriarch of the Wang Family and Sui Gu cannot be blamed for this. After all, Xu Rong came to Chang'an alone, and his army stayed in Lantian County.

Although the imperial court asked Xu Rong to be responsible for suppressing the uprising forces in the Sanfu area, there was no need for [-] soldiers, so Xu Rong only brought about [-] soldiers for this mission, and the rest of the soldiers continued to stay in Lantian County.

It was not until the imperial mission was completed that Xu Rong transferred the remaining [-] soldiers from Lantian County back to Chang'an City. Later, after the adjustment of the military department, the [-] soldiers had been reorganized.

But even without Xu Rong's army, it would not be so easy for Suigu's army to take Chang'an, so in order to bluff, Suigu declared that there were [-] troops when he set off, and his momentum suddenly became much stronger.

Regarding the arrival of Suigu's [-] troops, although the imperial court knew that he was bluffing, the local county magistrate did not have the courage.

When these county magistrates heard that the Suigu army was coming, they basically chose to flee. Surrender is impossible. Choosing to surrender at the feet of the emperor is a slap in the face of the imperial court. fruit to eat.

Suigu's army advanced very fast. On the first day, they had already left Shangjun and arrived at Zuo Fengyi. On the second day, they had already occupied several counties in Zuo Fengyi, and allowed their subordinates to wreak havoc in the city. On the third day, , Suigu's army continued to advance. In the eyes of others, he seemed to really want to take Chang'an as quickly as possible.

Outside Chang'an City, Huangfusong and Xu Rong each led [-] soldiers towards the north. Huangfusong was the commander and Xu Rong was the deputy general. The prestige of the court.

In Huangfu Song's tent, a scout walked in.

"General, we have found out the enemy's situation. The enemy's commander is Sui Gu, who leads a total of more than [-] soldiers. He is now stationed in Liyi County, but the strange thing is that Sui Gu did not advance again, but the original It has been repaired." The scout said slowly.

"How many days have you been stationed?" Huangfu Song asked, frowning.

"Basically, we have been stationed for two days now based on the information we have found," said the scout.

"Go on, continue to explore." Huangfusong said.

After the scouts left the military tent, Huangfusong asked his personal guards to notify Xu Rong to come to discuss matters.

After Xu Rong came to the military tent, Huangfusong told Xu Rong all the news the scouts had found.

"General Huangfu, this matter is a bit strange. Since the opponent has already launched the banner of attacking Chang'an, why does he want to station troops in Liyi County for a long time? Could it be that he has discovered us?" Xu Rong asked suspiciously.

"Impossible. The [-] troops are the troops you stayed in Lantian before. Even many generals in Chang'an City don't know, let alone Suigu who is far away in Shangjun. According to his information, Chang'an should be Empty is right."

"Since it is empty, Suigu should increase his marching speed instead of stationing and resting. This is not a normal combat situation, unless he has no intention of attacking Chang'an City from the beginning." Huangfusong expressed his judgment.

"Then why did he play the banner of attacking Chang'an? Could it be that the imperial court reacted earlier?" Xu Rong asked with some doubts.

Xu Rong also found it very strange that on the first day Suigu's army set out, Suigu played the banner of attacking Chang'an. Even if he really wanted to attack Chang'an, there was no need to make such a big publicity unless from the very beginning. It's just a cover, his real purpose is something else.

"I can't say what Suigu's purpose is now, but I think his purpose should not be that simple, so if you want to know his real purpose, you may have to wait until you catch him."

"Since Suigu's purpose is not to attack Chang'an, there is no point in setting up an ambush here."

"Let's go, let's go to the front line first to see the situation." Huangfusong pointed to the map and said.

In Huangfusong's original plan, he planned to set up an ambush with Xu Rong on the way Suigu's army passed through Chang'an City, so as to wipe out Suigu's army in one fell swoop. Naturally it doesn't make sense.

Huangfusong and Xu Rong continued to advance the army step by step. Since the opponent's goal was not Chang'an City, there was no point in defending it.

In Liyi County, Sui Gu continued to let his subordinates spread the news of the attack on Chang'an to all directions, but in fact, his army only remained motionless after looting the passing city.

"General, I have spread the news everywhere. The imperial court should have known the news that we are going to attack Chang'an. It must not be long before the imperial court will let Zhu Jun's troops withdraw from Hedong County and come back to rescue. At that time, our The task is considered complete." Sui Gu's confidant Yang Wen said.

"However, general, we are not really going to attack Chang'an after all. If the imperial court doesn't bring back Zhu Jun's army, won't we be unable to complete the mission?" His confidant Yang Wen was a little worried.

"You don't understand this. My army is known as an army of [-] to the outside world. In addition, we are coming in such a menacing manner. The court can't tell whether we are really attacking Chang'an City."

"What's more, according to my understanding, all the troops in Chang'an have been dispatched. Lu Bu led 5000 troops to Luoyang, and Zhu Jun led [-] troops to Dong County. , so the current Chang'an City is an empty city with only a few soldiers."

"Under such circumstances, the imperial court will definitely call back Zhu Jun's troops to protect itself. Otherwise, if our army really attacks Chang'an City, wouldn't Chang'an City be in danger." Sui Gu said firmly.

Sui Gu has also done some understanding of the situation in Chang'an City. After all, his subordinates are mainly yellow scarf thieves, but his location is also the closest to Chang'an City. If he is not Zhang Yang's subordinate, I am afraid that the court has already Started on him.

In fact, Sui Gu was also a little worried that his fate would be like that of Yang Feng, so he was also very terrified. If it weren't for the fact that the Patriarch of the Wang family gave too much this time, he would not choose to pretend to attack the court. Although he is not afraid of the court, but He also didn't want to offend the court.

It is for this reason that Sui Gu stopped when he arrived in Liyi County of Zuo Fengyi, and chose to station there. After all, his goal has been achieved, and he will wait until the news of Zhu Jun's army withdrawing. Choose to withdraw.

Suigu would never have imagined that from the first moment his army entered Zuo Fengyi, he had angered the imperial court.

"General, although we only pretended to attack Chang'an this time, we have offended the imperial court after all. If the imperial court sends troops to us later, what should we do?" Yang Wen, his confidant, still worried.

"Then let the imperial court fight. After all, Shangjun is Zhang Yang's territory. We just manage Shangjun for Zhang Yang. Even if the army loses to the imperial court, at worst, I will bring my brothers to join other people again."

"What's more, this time we didn't bring much loss to the imperial court, and the imperial court's army is also scattered everywhere. Even if we want to attack Shangjun, the imperial court may not be able to do anything in a short time."

"Besides, this summer, there may be a severe drought in Guanzhong. At that time, the imperial court may not even be able to solve the food problem, and they want to attack Shangjun." Sui Gu said disapprovingly.

Sui Gu was born as a bandit in Heishan, and he understands that the reason for the rebellion of the people at the bottom is nothing more than the problem of food. This year's drought is almost inevitable. The food of the court will definitely be used to rescue the victims. It is simply a dream to start a war against Shangjun .

In Sui Gu's mind, the aqueducts dug by the imperial court may be of some help to the severe drought, but it is impossible to completely eliminate the crisis caused by the severe drought. Otherwise, why did the imperial court not build aqueducts before and allow droughts to occur everywhere? .

"The villain admires the general's wisdom, but the villain can't think so far." His confidant Yang Wen knocked his head and sighed.

Sui Gu is also a general who came out of the low-level people. He can't make a mistake in his judgment about things like drought. With natural disasters, let alone the imperial court wanting to mobilize troops to counterattack Shangjun, it is whether the imperial court can survive the next crisis. is a huge problem.

If it weren't for the reminder from the life simulator, there is a high probability that Zhang Ming will really fall on natural disasters. Since ancient times, in the last years of the dynasty, natural disasters have never been rare. Let a dynasty die.

"Yang Wen, have all the scouts sent to Hedong County arrived? As soon as those scouts get the news that Zhu Jun's army is retreating, we will return to Shangjun immediately." Sui Gu looked at Yang Wen and asked.

"General, the army was already dispatched when they set off, and they will send a message back in a short time." Yang Wen, his confidant, nodded and said.

"Okay, let the soldiers continue to rest in the city, we will wait for news from the scouts here." Sui Gu said lightly.

Although Zhu Jun in Hedong County already knew the news that Suigu's army attacked Zuo Fengyi, he also knew the purpose of Suigu's attack on Chang'an. After all, the Suigu army began to spread around from the first day of departure. It's hard not to know.

It’s just that Zhu Jun didn’t receive any news from Chang’an, so he was a little worried. As for Xu Rong’s army, Zhu Jun didn’t know about it. It’s actually not surprising, after all, Zhu Jun was sent by the court two days after arriving in Chang’an City. Conquer the white wave thieves.

However, Zhu Jun did not choose to withdraw the soldiers and go to Chang'an. Instead, he sent his cronies to Chang'an to understand the situation. In his opinion, since the imperial court did not send any news, there must be no problem. After all, Huangfusong was still in Chang'an.

However, these days, Zhu Jun was still unsure, even Da Si Nong didn't have much energy in his work, after all Chang'an was at stake, how could they, the courtiers outside, not be worried.

Naturally, these conspiring wealthy families also received the news that Suigu had attacked Chang'an. Outside they showed an image of worrying about the country and the people, but once they returned home, they were all excited.

Of course, in addition to being happy in their hearts, these wealthy families further ordered the family's private soldiers to interfere with the farming. As long as they can prevent the court from completing the farming affairs before the spring planting, the farming can only be delayed indefinitely.

But just when Zhu Jun and Da Sinong were hesitating, a court envoy arrived at the barracks and handed Da Sinoong and Zhu Jun a letter, the content of which was what His Majesty said.

In this letter, Zhang Ming explained everything about the imperial court's defense against the Suigu army, telling them not to worry about the imperial court, and at the same time asking them to speed up the work of garrisoning the fields as much as possible, and all the work of garrisoning the fields must be completed before the spring planting.

After receiving this letter, the hearts of Da Sinong and Zhu Jun finally settled down. As long as the court is fine, they will go all out to complete the task of the court.

The Hao family in Hedong County complained again and again, they could only watch the land exchange agreement brought by Da Si Nong, and signed their names on it extremely unhappy.

The armies of Huangfusong and Xu Rong moved forward again, and now their army is not far from Liyi County where Suigu is located.

Xu Rong came to Huangfusong's barracks again, and now the scouts of the imperial court have completely found out the situation of Sui Gu.

"General Huangfu, it seems that Suigu's army is just bluffing, but this time, the cost he paid is quite high, and almost all the troops in Shangjun were sent out." Xu Rong said with emotion.

"Yes, so it gave us a good chance. If my judgment is correct, this time Suigu didn't plan to stay in Liyi for a long time." Huangfusong also said with emotion.

"How to say?" Xu Rong asked doubtfully.

"According to the report from the scouts, the Suigu army only brought 20 days' worth of food this time. If they chose to quickly attack Chang'an City with such a small amount of food, I can understand it, but the situation is completely different now. They have no intention of attacking at all. Chang'an City."

"So if my judgment is correct, Sui Gu's attack on Chang'an City this time is just a feint attack. Although I don't know the purpose of his feint attack on Chang'an City, as long as he is sure that he is a feint attack, the next step will be much easier." Huangfusong said seriously. Said.

"How?" Xu Rong asked again.

"Cut off the way back." Huangfusong pointed to Shangjun on the map and said.

Later, Huang Fusong and Xu Rong discussed the specific battle plan.

The next day, Xu Rong led the troops quietly bypassing Liyi County, and this army will finally reach Shangjun.

Huangfusong stopped the army at the same place temporarily, and now he still needs to buy time for Xu Rong's troops, so try not to let Suigu's scouts detect the existence of the imperial army.

As for Sui Gu who is still waiting for news from Hedong County in Liyi City, he has set a time limit of [-] days for this plan. Within [-] days, no matter whether Zhu Jun's army chooses to retreat or not, he will choose to leave Liyi County , Return to Shangjun.
