Legend of Summoning of the Three Kingdoms

However, during the period of attacking the western part of Nanyang, Le Yi has fully proved his own strength, so that these Qin army generals under Le Yi's command are very convinced of Le Yi.And this is also the purpose of Le Yi to attack the western part of Nanyang first. With the soldiers and horses of the Yan army stationed in Nanyang, it is possible for the Qin army led by Le Yi to take Nanyang, but Le Yi knows what he needs The tough battle is the counterattack of the Yan army after taking Nanyang.

In order to cope with that tough battle, Le Yi decided to accumulate his reputation among the Qin army first, at least not to have the situation where orders are obeyed and orders are violated.Only in this way can Le Yi face the counterattack of the Yan army with the [-] Qin army under his command.

Now it seems that Le Yi's move is very correct, and the eyes of many titans in front of Le Yi are full of trust, or full of conviction.

At this time, Sima Yi stood up first and said: "General Le, in my opinion, the most important thing for us now is to take down Wancheng as quickly as possible, and then take down the entire Nanyang."

Chapter 773 Battle of Nanyang

Le Yi nodded and said: "What Zhongda said is reasonable. Judging from our current situation, the Yan army stationed in Nanyang must have discovered our traces, but so what, according to the information we got, the Yan army stayed behind Nanyang has only 1 soldiers and horses, and the generals of the Yan army staying in Nanyang are Xie Yingdeng and Xie Xuan. Therefore, the best way for us now is to rush all the way, capture Wancheng as quickly as possible, and then take Nanyang Being under control means that we can look south to Xiangyang, and as soon as the Chu army arrives in Jingzhou, the Chu army will be defeated under our attack from both sides, and Jingzhou and Yangzhou will be at our fingertips at that time."

After hearing Le Yi's words, all the generals of the Yan Army had fiery eyes, only a few such as Sima Yi and Xu Shiji remained calm.Le Yi's plan is very tempting, but everything Le Yi said can only happen when everything goes well, but facing Yan Jun, can everything go well?

Regarding this point, the answers given by Sima Yi and Xu Shiji, who had fought against Yan Jun, were both in the affirmative.Sima Yi and Xu Shiji went to Yanzhou with Xu Rong when they were still from the Tang Dynasty, but they were blocked by Zhao Yun on the white horse, and Xu Rong died in the end. Sima Yi and Xu Shiji were also left out by Li Shimin after that battle.

So Sima Yi and Xu Shiji both thought about fighting the Yan army with [-] points of mind.It's just that most of the people led by Le Yi don't like this kind of calculation, and there is only one Deng Yu who can talk with Sima Yi and Xu Shiji.

As for Fu Jian, Sima Yi and Xu Shiji didn't pay much attention to Fu Jian because Fu Jian was not a Han Chinese, even though Fu Jian's ability was outstanding.

After seeing the excited expressions of many generals under his command, Le Yi ordered decisively: "Huang Chao, Fu Jian, you two lead ten thousand soldiers and horses to attack Wancheng first. Remember, you must block the surrounding area of ​​Wancheng. But what you need to do is to lure out the Yan army in Wancheng, no matter what method you use, you must lure that Yan army out, understand?"

Fu Jian and Huang Chao stood up immediately at this time, bowed their hands to Le Yi and said: "I will understand."

After giving orders to Fu Jian and Huang Chao, Le Yi's eyes fell on Long Qie and Shi Jingsi, and said: "Long Ju, Shi Jingsi, you two led five thousand soldiers and horses to ambush Fu Jian and Huang Chao. On the other hand, remember not to let the Yan army find out, as long as Fu Jian and Huang Chao lead the Yan army out, you two will immediately lead the troops to fight out, and you must defeat the Yan army."

Both Long Qie and Shi Jingsi stood up and said, "General Le, please rest assured, the two of us will definitely complete the task."

Afterwards, Le Yi said to the others together: "The rest of the generals will follow me forward, this time we can't lose anything, we must take Nanyang."

"Yes!"

Fu Jian and Huang Chao led 1 troops to Wancheng first, Long Qie and Shi Jingsi each led [-] soldiers and horses, a total of [-] people, and Le Yi led [-] Qin troops with the rest of the Qin army. And go.

However, during the march, Gao Chong rode his horse to Le Yi's side and asked, "General Le, why don't you let me lead the troops to attack? Could it be that my high favor is too useless?"

Facing Gao Chong's stern questioning, Le Yi was well prepared and said to him, "General Gao, that's not the case. On the contrary, I didn't send General Gao because I had high hopes for General Gao."

After hearing Le Yi's words, Gao Chong was a little puzzled, and asked, "General Le, what do you mean by that?"

Le Yi stared straight ahead, and said: "This time we attacked Nanyang with the Karasuma army. I think it is not a big problem to take Nanyang, but the difficulty is how to face the counterattack of the Yan army after taking Nanyang. Once we If we win Nanyang, of course we can look south to Xiangyang, but the Yan army can also send troops from Xiangyang and Runan to attack us, so in the battle of Nanyang we cannot reveal our full strength, we must keep some cards, so that Only when the Yan army counterattacks can we have enough strength to defend Nanyang and even counterattack to Xiangyang, and you, General Gao, are the strongest and most important card in my hand."

Looking at Gao Chong's expression, Le Yi said: "General Gao should know that among the 12 troops of the Yan Army who besieged Xiangyang this time, there are several powerful generals, the strongest of which is Li Cunxiao, and later Jia Fu, Ran Min and the others are not weak, and if these people lead troops to attack, we must have someone who can stop them, and among us, only you, General Gao, can complete this task."

When Gao Chong heard the words, he smiled and assured Le Yi: "Don't worry, General Le, with Gao Chong here, Li Cunxiao, Ran Min, Jia Fu and the others will never make any trouble."

Le Yi also smiled and said: "I believe in the strength of General Gao, but there are also many strong men in the Yan army. Previously, Li Cunxiao, Xiang Yu and Li Yuanba competed for the title of the first fierce general, but now these three Among them, Li Yuanba died under the gun of our Great Qin General Jiang Song, and Xiang Yu was besieged by the generals of the Yan Army outside Wancheng and died. Now only one Li Cunxiao is left among the three. Please be extremely careful."

Gao Chong said: "Don't worry, General Le, I understand. But I want to fight against this Li Cunxiao. Li Yuanba was no match for General Jiang even if he fought alone. I want to see that Li Cunxiao is no match for Li Yuanba." That kind of strength."

Le Yi looked at Gao Chong, and still reminded: "General Gao, remember not to be negligent."

At this time, Gao Chong was holding his spear tightly, and there was an explosion of infinite fighting spirit in his eyes.

Gao Chong has heard of Li Cunxiao's name for a long time. Similarly, Gao Chong, as a general of the Qin State, is proud of his extraordinary martial arts skills. Song was defeated by the ever-changing superb marksmanship, but that battle also gave Gao Chong a lot of prestige among the Qin army. After all, not everyone can fight Jiang Song like Gao Chong. round.

If it wasn't for Jiang Song's strategy to restrain an explosive general like Gao Chong, then with Gao Chong's strength, Jiang Song could at least last a hundred rounds undefeated, and even if Jiang Song didn't pay attention, he would be killed. Gao Chong counter-killed.

When Le Yi comforted Gao Chong, Fu Jian and Huang Chao under Wancheng had been fighting for a long time. Originally, Xie Yingdeng could not insist on staying in Wancheng because of Xie Xuan's persuasion. The city stood firm, but Fu Jian and Huang Chao's actions became more and more outrageous, and their curses became more and more ugly.In the end, Fu Jian and Huang Chao even ordered the soldiers under their command to take off their armor and rest at will under Wancheng.

How could Xie Yingdeng endure such a situation, and not long ago Xie Yingdeng's good friend Wang Bodang died under Xiang Yu's hands, now Xie Yingdeng has lost his usual calmness, so Xie Yingdeng led [-] soldiers regardless of Xie Xuan's objection Ma just rushed out of Wancheng and headed towards Huang Chao and Fu Jian.

When Fu Jian saw Xie Yingdeng killed, he thought he would step forward to kill Xie Yingdeng, but was held back by Huang Chao. In the end, Huang Chao and Fu Jian pretended to be defeated, and led Xie Yingdeng and the [-] soldiers under his command to Yan. In the encirclement set up by the army, after Xie Yingdeng's soldiers and horses completely entered the encirclement of the Qin army, Long Qie and Shi Jingsi, who had been lying in wait for a long time, rushed out immediately. Within a short period of time, he sorted out his soldiers and horses, and killed them back again.

Xie Yingdeng was originally in a furious situation, but when Long Qie and Shi Jingsi came out from the side, Xie Yingdeng had already calmed down, and when Huang Chao and Fu Jian led their troops back, Xie Yingdeng knew that he had already calmed down. He fell into the trap of the Qin army.

If he was willing to listen to Xie Xuan's words and stick to Wancheng all the time, how could he be ambushed by these Qin troops, but it's too late to say anything now.

Chapter 774 The Fall of Wan City

Holding a long spear, Xie Yingdeng led the [-] soldiers of the Yan Army under his command to rush left and right under the siege of a total of [-] Qin troops, trying to find a suitable opportunity to break out.But now Xie Yingdeng has Huang Chao and Fu Jian in front, Long Qi on the left, Shi Jingsi on the right, and the road behind is blocked again, so it is still difficult for Xie Yingdeng to break out after a charge.

However, despite this situation, Xie Yingdeng still did not give up. On the one hand, the soldiers of the Yan army led by silver guns were rushing in all directions, not giving the Qin army a chance to completely restrict the actions of themselves and others. On the other hand, they were also looking for opportunities to break through. out.

But unfortunately, what Xie Yingdeng faced was the siege of the Qin army with a total of 2 people led by Huang Chao, Fu Jian, Long Qi, and Shi Jingsi. Xie Yingdeng could not resist any one of these four people. Yes, not to mention the four of them teaming up, if it weren't for the brave soldiers of the Yan army under Xie Yingdeng's command, Xie Yingdeng would have died in the chaos right now.

But even so, Xie Yingdeng's body was also full of scars at this time, and there were only more than 5000 soldiers left in the Eight Thousand Yan Army, and more than 2000 were lost.However, although the casualties were so heavy, the generals and soldiers of the Yan army resisted tenaciously under the onslaught of the Qin army, and there was no tendency to put down their weapons at all.

Long Qi stabbed to death a fearless Yan soldier, and then his eyes fell on Xie Yingdeng. Although Xie Yingdeng was trying his best to hide himself in such a battlefield, Long Qi still found his trace , when he found Xie Yingdeng's trace, Long Qi locked Xie Yingdeng.

Pretending to kill Xie Yingdeng inadvertently, after stabbing several Yan soldiers to death at random, Long Qi's eyes flashed, and the spear in his hand suddenly changed direction, stabbing towards Xie Yingdeng's direction.

Facing Long Qi's sudden attack, Xie Yingdeng was completely defenseless, but when he saw Long Qi killing him, Xie Yingdeng paid a little attention to Long Qi, but Xie Yingdeng still didn't expect Long Qi to attack him early. It's just that they found their own traces, and then they will launch such a surprise attack on themselves.

Facing Long Qi's sudden shot, Xie Yingdeng roared angrily, and the spear pressed down on the tip of Long Qi's spear. Afterwards, Xie Yingdeng exerted all his strength to kill Long Qi's shot. The raid missed.

A single shot failed, and Long Qi shouted angrily. The long spear that was missed by Xie Yingdeng was retracted and swept across. The tip of the spear drew a hideous and terrifying bloodstain on Xie Yingdeng's chest. And with a kick, Xie Yingdeng was kicked off the horse.

Reining in his horse and turning around, Long Qie was looking for Xie Yingdeng's figure, and just when Long Qie discovered where Xie Yingdeng was, those Xie Yingdeng's soldiers all rushed to Long Qie without fear of death, and at the same time Some of Xie Yingdeng's soldiers rushed to Xie Yingdeng's side and rescued Xie Yingdeng who was seriously injured by Long Qie.

By the time Long Qi had dealt with Xie Yingdeng's personal soldiers who rushed in front of him, Xie Yingdeng had long since disappeared, causing Long Qi to yell at him with hatred, and then he rode his horse around and killed all the grievances in his heart. On these Yan army generals.

After Xie Yingdeng was seriously injured and rescued from Long Qi's gun by his own soldiers, he hastily bandaged his wound, then endured the severe pain, and ordered to the soldiers beside him: "Quick, Pass on my order, the whole army will break out, no matter how many enemies are in front, they must break out, otherwise we will be surrounded here by the Qin army and we will die."

The remaining thousands of soldiers of the Yan Army then broke out under the order of Xie Yingdeng, and Huang Chao, Fu Jian, Long Qie, Shi Jingsi and others also tried their best to stop the Yan Army when they saw that the Yan Army wanted to break out. In the end, Xie Yingdeng Of the 8000 people brought this time, only more than 5000 people broke out under the leadership of Xie Yingdeng, and the remaining [-] soldiers of the Yan army either became corpses or prisoners of war.

After breaking out of the siege, Xie Yingdeng called a soldier to his side, and said to him: "Quickly send some of the fastest cavalry to Wancheng, report the situation here to General Xie Xuan, and let Xie Xuan The general is to withdraw from Wancheng as soon as possible."

After the soldier left, Xie Yingdeng looked in the direction of Wancheng, his eyes were full of remorse.Yue Fei left him and Xie Xuan in Wancheng, hoping that it and Xie Xuan could work together to defend Wancheng, but because of his impulsiveness, the 2000 troops who stayed behind in Wancheng suffered heavy casualties. There is no time for [-] people to retreat to Wancheng, and now there are only [-] soldiers in Xie Xuan's hands in Wancheng. Facing the Qin army under the command of Huang Chao, Fu Jian, Long Qie and Shi Jingsi, how can they defend it? Wancheng.

So in response to this situation, Xie Yingdeng sent several soldiers to Wancheng as quickly as possible, hoping to pass the news to Xie Xuan before the Qin army attacked Wancheng, so that Xie Xuan could lead his troops to withdraw from Wancheng.Now that Wancheng is doomed to fall, instead of letting Xie Xuan's [-] soldiers needlessly lose in Wancheng, it is better to withdraw from Wancheng as soon as possible to increase the chance of counterattack in the future.

After Xie Yingdeng broke out, Huang Chao, Fu Jian, Long Qie, and Shi Jingsi ordered people to clean up the battlefield on the spot, and at the same time gathered to discuss the next action. After some discussions, the four left some troops behind The corpses are dealt with here. For the rest of the people, as long as they can still move and can afford weapons, they will follow the four of Huang Chao to attack and kill them as fast as possible.

However, Huang Chao and the others were still a step behind Xie Yingdeng. Xie Yingdeng sent someone to send a message to Xie Xuan as soon as he broke out, while Huang Chao and the others decided to attack Wancheng when they were cleaning the battlefield and disposing of the corpses. Before leading the Qin army to kill, Xie Xuan received the news of Xie Yingdeng's defeat.

When Xie Yingdeng was ambushed by the Qin army, and only two thousand soldiers were left in the eight thousand soldiers of the Yan army, Xie Xuan gave a wry smile. He had some guesses about Xie Yingdeng being ambushed by the Qin army, but Xie Xuan did not expect that Qin Guo actually designed an ambush when he had an army of [-]. With [-] troops, it would not be a problem to defeat the [-] Yan army led by Xie Yingdeng on the frontal battlefield.Under the siege designed by the [-] Qin army, Xie Yingdeng was able to lead more than [-] people to break out, which is already a very good result.

After Xie Xuan received the news from Xie Yingdeng, he understood that the best way for him now was to withdraw from Wancheng. Otherwise, it would be impossible to defend against the wolf-like Qin army with only two thousand soldiers under his command. Wancheng.

Before leading the two thousand soldiers under his command to withdraw from Wancheng, Xie Xuan looked at the place where the Wancheng granary was located, and he felt ruthless in his heart. When leaving Wancheng, the place where Wancheng's granary was located was already on fire.

After occupying Wancheng, the Yan army used Wancheng as the logistics base for the army that went south to attack Xiangyang. Wancheng can be said to have hoarded the food and grass for the 12 army that besieged Xiangyang at this time for half a year, but now these food and grass are in Xie Xuan's With one order, it turned into ashes.

Once Wancheng is lost, it will be difficult to regain it. Instead of letting those food and grass become the enemy's property, it is better to just burn it like this, rather than leaving it to the Qin army.And the food and grass for the 12 troops besieging Xiangyang can still be mobilized from other places.Whether it was Zongze in Yuzhou at this time or Xiao Hena in Xuzhou at this time, he had already prepared a large amount of food and grass in Yuzhou and Xuzhou to attack Xiangyang. As long as the Yan army can last for a month, food and grass will no longer be a problem.

When Huang Chao and others rushed to the bottom of Wancheng, they happened to see a raging fire where the Wancheng granary was located, and there was not a single Yan soldier in Wancheng.

After knowing that it was the granary in Wancheng that was on fire, Huang Chao, Fu Jian and others didn't bother to pursue Xie Xuan, but led their troops to fight the fire.Compared with Xie Xuan and the two thousand soldiers of the Yan army, the granary in Wancheng was undoubtedly more important.
