Royal road

Chapter 288

On November [-]th, just five days after the solar eclipse, the people of Luoyang, who were still in shock, realized that the ominous omen had come true in front of them.The Xiongnu Han Dynasty dispatched more than a dozen generals, including King Qin Liu Yao, General Hu Yanyi, and General Anton Shi Le, with a total of [-] troops, to go straight to Luoyang!

This time, Liu Yuan had spent enough of his capital. Among the [-] elite soldiers, there were [-] just for raising troops!The hearts of the people were uncertain, and they were suddenly attacked by the enemy, and the counties in Henan County surrendered in response.Henan Yin and Liu Mo died in battle, the guards scattered, and Yique Pass was broken!

In just five days, this large army came under the city of Luoyang like a broken bamboo.With the natural danger of the Yellow River, the Tianziwangcheng in the eight pass cities, except for the [-] relatives in the city and the tall and wide city walls, there is no danger to rely on!

Riding on the horse, Shi Le looked at the majestic city in front of him, and sighed from the bottom of his heart.When he was young, he went to Luoyang to do business with his father.The huge bronze camel outside the palace city looked southward, and the royal road was more than ten feet wide. Just standing on the bronze camel street, the splendor and beauty of the entire Luoyang city can be seen in full view.

This mighty emperor's capital is now under his blade.

With the neighing of war horses and the continuous tents behind him, even the air was filled with the smell of rust and blood.They have come here, broke the city, killed the emperor, and made great achievements!

Breathing quickly, Shi Le narrowed his eyes, looking at the tall and ancient city wall with greed.

"Shi Le!"

A voice sounded from behind, Shi Le suddenly woke up, turned around and clasped his fists: "Your Highness!"

In Liu Yu's eyes, the same light as Shi Le's was shining.He raised the whip in his hand and ordered loudly: "Lead your forwards and attack first!"

"The last general has orders!" Shi Le answered simply, but his expression darkened a bit.

When he first came to Han, he had few major generals, so he had no choice but to rely on Wang Mi.But the other party was born in a noble family and was arrogant and rude. In fact, he didn't think much of his Jiehu.Staying in Yongzhou before was also to stay away from Wang Mi and expand his team.Those Di Qiang miscellaneous Hu, refugees and defeated generals, are the ones who can be used by him.Unexpectedly, many tribes were defeated, and most of the remnants gathered were entrusted by Liu Zhen to Pu Hong, the Di man who served.Shi Le is not angry?But all the emotions were suppressed in the belly.

He doesn't have the confidence yet to disobey these Xiongnu nobles.But it is an indisputable fact that Liu Yao values ​​him more and more.It is naturally better to vote for Liu Yao than Wang Mi.As long as he made more meritorious deeds and made more achievements, one day he would be able to lead troops out like Wang Mi.Once there is a chance to attack the state and county, wouldn't it be easy to gather tens of thousands of troops and gallop one side again?At that time, who would dare to underestimate his origin!

The eagle-like sharp eyes cast on the distant city.Shi Le urged his mount, and rushed towards Luoyang City with the generals around him!



"Where are the reinforcements?!" In Luoyang Palace, the young emperor was furious, and even his voice changed his tone!

five days!In just five days, all the passes defending Luoyang were ripped apart like paper.Those who are loyal will die for the country.But more of them are cowardly villains who sit on the ground and beg for mercy!The 2 horses stationed in Henan County collapsed without stopping for even a day.It's great now, except for the [-] relatives in the city, he has no one to use!

Where are Gou Xi's troops?What about Shanjian?What about Wang Cheng?What about Sun Li?What about Liang Feng and Liang Zixi? !

Isn't there a loyal minister in such a big country? !

All the ministers under the ranks have ashen faces.Who wants to be blocked in the city by these barbarians?It's not that the emperor was stubborn and made them lose the chance to escape!

Wang Yan insisted and said: "Your Majesty, the Xiongnu came too fast to be prepared. As long as General Gou gets the news, he will definitely send troops. There is also Bingzhou, which is separated by a mountain. Liang Zixi can also dispatch troops. Come to help! Bingzhou's soldiers and horses are not inferior to Xianbei Huqi, and they will be able to break the siege of Luoyang. As long as your majesty stays in the city, it will be enough to resist for a few days..."

His words are not unreasonable.Send troops from Shangdang and go to Taihangxing, and it only takes one day to reach Luoyang.Once Bingzhou sends troops, the situation will change immediately.And a big city like Luoyang, can't hold it for ten days and half a month?

Taking a deep breath, the little emperor tried his best to calm down, and said: "Mobilize the army and fight against the enemy..."

"Your Majesty can't do it!" Someone had already shouted, "The palace must also be on guard, if the city is broken..."

Before he finished speaking, he knew he had made a slip of the tongue and shut up quickly.The little emperor clenched his fists in anger, but did not speak again.Yes, Luoyang City has several walls. Even if the outer city is breached, there is still an inner city.If the inner city can't be defended, wouldn't there still be the impregnable Jinyong City?

Thinking that he might escape to Jinyong City where countless clans were trapped to death, a chill ran down the little emperor's back.No, he must not fall into such a situation, even if the royal conquest is to be fought by the imperial driver himself, he must keep the enemy out of the inner city!Didn't Sima Ai take Emperor Hui out of the city to fight Sima Ying?As long as he is there, those soldiers can fight to the death!

"Send feathers to the states and counties, and send troops to rescue him!" Finally, the little emperor sternly said, "Before the reinforcements arrive, call the young and strong in the city and stick to the city!"

However, the young emperor didn't know at this moment that the reinforcements he was looking forward to were also in trouble.Wang Mi, who had just stopped for a while, raised his troops again and attacked Xingyang all the way, cutting off Gou Xi's way to return to Luoyang.Before there was Wang Mi's [-] army, and later Cao Yi was in trouble in Qingzhou and Yanzhou. Gou Xi immediately fell into a fierce battle that could not take care of himself.

And Bingzhou also ushered in the long-planned enemy early.

"The Xiongnu occupied the entrances of Taihangxing, Baixing, Jingxing, etc., and besieged Huguan." When the latest military news came from Shangdang, everyone in Jinyang City looked very unhappy.

While leading troops to attack Luoyang, the Xiongnu soldiers and horses who had been stationed on the front line of Luize and stared at them immediately moved.Liu Yuan did not mean to underestimate Bingzhou, but on the basis of the original [-] soldiers, he added [-] cavalry, and [-] troops invaded Shangdang!Judging from the letter, the combat power of this group of soldiers and horses should not be underestimated.What's more difficult is that they didn't plan to attack the city, but divided their troops to defend several routes.

In this way, the situation couldn't be more obvious. The opponent has made up his mind to prevent Bingzhou soldiers from going south to aid Luoyang.If you don't go through the Xing Road, it will take ten and a half months just to bypass the Taihang Mountain. Whether Luoyang City can be defended by then is a problem.Even if troops are transferred from Yecheng, it will take the same amount of time.What's more, the garrison in Ye City is insufficient. If troops are sent out rashly, even Wei County may be wiped out.

what to do?Don't save Luoyang?

If you don't care about Luoyang City and the little emperor in the city.A mere [-] soldiers and horses are unable to shake Shangdang at all.Just retreating and guarding the city is enough to exhaust the enemy's food and grass.But in this way, it will definitely lose the trust of the imperial court, and even be accused by Wan Fu.In Bingzhou, where there is no other place, the position of governor Liang Feng was hand-picked by the emperor.Such a breach of trust, who else is willing to vote?

But if they are rescued, they may face the Huns army that is ready to go.This battle might be even more dangerous than the previous fight against Wang Jun.It may even damage Bingzhou's hard-earned strength.When Luoyang is rescued and the Huns attack again, how will they be prepared?

Seven or eight pairs of eyes fell on Liang Feng.This is not a decision that other staff members can make.To fight or not to fight, it only depends on his words.

"Send troops! Defeat the enemy and rescue Luoyang!" Liang Feng said directly without hesitation.

Others will consider the current situation, consider the interests, and even secretly hope that the troublesome emperor will die at the hands of the Huns.But Liang Feng is not someone else.In Luoyang City, there are not only emperors and ministers, but also tens of thousands of innocent people!If he can send troops to rescue, he will naturally do so.

As soon as these words came out, the oppressive atmosphere in the room was relaxed.Maybe it is easier for a ruthless hero to achieve hegemony, but everyone followed Liang Feng at first because he had a heart of compassion for the people and saving the world.

The lord has made a decision, the following is just a matter of tactics.Zhang Bin nodded and said, "This time the enemy is divided into several groups, it seems that there is an opportunity to take advantage of it, but it is actually a strategy to lure the enemy. If you really want to attack one by one, I am afraid that you will be ambushed by cavalry."

Shangdang is only such a big place, and several streets are very close to each other.As long as you hold a little bit, you can use the mobility of the cavalry to attack the Bingzhou soldiers and horses.However, the number of cavalry in Bingzhou is insufficient, and it is quite difficult to effectively stop the opponent's movements.

On the side, Yi Yan said coldly: "This method is not just to lure the enemy. As long as we stick to the camp and block the way out, we can put our army in a dilemma. The enemy will use his troops cautiously and cunningly, unlike the puppet men we encountered in the past Soldiers and horses."

Their ultimate goal is to go to Luoyang to resolve the crisis of the Xiongnu soldiers approaching the city.However, the enemy army divided up and defended the main road leading to Luoyang.No matter where you want to pass, you still have to fight a battle after all, and you must deal with the enemy as soon as possible.This created great psychological pressure on Bingzhou soldiers and horses.Once a mistake is made, the consequences will be disastrous.

"Such people who are good at planning are bound to plan again. It's better to do the opposite." Zhang Bin has already heard the meaning of Yi Yan's words.

"It's not a bad idea to lure the enemy into battle with a false pretense." Yiyan's answer was even more straightforward.

In a few words, the general direction is determined.However, more detailed tactics need to be carefully studied.

"Boyuan will be the commander in this battle, and Mengsun will be the staff officer. Write to the Shangdang, inform the ancestors and history, and prepare to send troops!" Liang Feng made a final decision without hesitation.

Following this order, Bingzhou, like a beast waking up from a deep sleep, cheered up and stood ready!
