Chapter 449: : The will to die

?Enough space has always been required for combat. The more troops participating in the war, the wider the space required. Otherwise, the troops cannot be spread out and all squeezed together, which consumes not only time but also materials.

  

  The Han army is constantly mobilizing to effectively cover the arrival of the tiger army.

  

The Tiger Cardinal Army is a cavalry equipped with armor and cavalry. They are more particular about what battlefield to join than other types of troops. For example, the light cavalry in light clothing can also perform in the hilly and hilly areas. The heavy infantry is out of weight. The relationship with the cost of installation will not go to the slopes and hilly areas at all.

  

The north bank of the Yellow River in Jijin has become a bit more complicated than the south bank. Puyang County has mostly flat terrain. The ancient cavalry (chariot soldiers) engaged in large-scale battles in Puyang County a lot. Everyone in history books knows that Puyang County is suitable for cavalry combat. Probably it was suitable for cavalry combat, Shijie Zhao Jun would position Puyang County as a decisive battlefield, but they found that they would seize the opportunity to retreat after being encircled.

  

The north bank of the Yellow River in Jijin is under the jurisdiction of Ji County. Ji County is divided into six counties, except for Linlu County in the north, which is the largest county, such as Xiuwu County, Huojia County, Gong County, Chaoge and Ji County. The county’s capital is located in the southerly area along the Yellow River, fully demonstrating China’s habit of building cities based on water.

  

The terrain in the south of Ji County is flat. In order to form military defense purposes, some checkpoints seem to be important military towns. For example, Tongguan in the southwest of Ji County, Fancheng in the west of Ji County, and the northeast of Ji County. Fangtou. They exist to protect the land of the capital of a county, so as not to allow the enemy to use the flat terrain to drive and conquer the capital of a county. After the capital is lost, the entire county has a domino effect. Captured, and after losing the top official, all regions fight in their own way.

  

   There were several steps in the conquest of Jijun by the Han army. First, the Huanwen subordinate went north from Xingyang County in the southwest of Jijun. They did not expend much effort to overcome the Tongguan.

  

  Huanwen Department can easily win the copper pass for historical reasons. Tongguan has always been valued in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the Western Jin Dynasty, or the pre-Zhao period of the Huns. After Shijie ruled the Central Plains, it must be said that the Jie people did not make any achievements in governing the country, and the productivity was not restored at all, and some important passes were not considered at all. , The result is that Tongguan has not been repaired at all.

  

In fact, it is not only the unfamiliar Tongguan, but also the several passes that must pass through the Qin area in Guanzhong. Whether it is Tongguan or Gaoguan as a gateway, or Lantian Pass, which is an alternate pass, they all have extremes. Important strategic value, but Shijie Zhao Guo really never thought about maintaining and repairing it.

  

The real situation is that in the Central Plains under Shijie’s rule, in the early days, apart from several arched castles around Xiang State, several cities were listed as barriers after the large-scale construction of palaces in Yecheng. Otherwise, the ruling class of Shijie was only Some important places on the border are emphasized, and the rest are basically neglected.

  

After    Huanwen's subordinate took the Tongguan, it can almost be said that it quickly captured the capital of Jixian County, and even the surrounding cities of Huojia and Gongcheng were captured without any effort. The reason for this situation is still related to Shi Jie's ruling thinking. Shi Jie is full of Huren characteristics. Not only does he not pay attention to the city, but also intentionally renders the city abandoned. It really has the posture of turning the Central Plains into a pasture.

  

   Huan Wen's subordinates at the back did not advance until Chaoge was blocked. Chaoge is located in the north of Jijin. At that time, Shihu was a white horse who led his army in Puyang County. He chose to station troops in Chaoge because of his emphasis on retreat. This move really played a key role. It was Huanwen's subordinate being blocked by Chaoge, and Shihu first withdrew to Fangtou, and finally retreated safely back to Yecheng.

  

The second batch of people from the southwest and northward were Xie An’s tribe. They drove from Hanoi County to Kap County. They first conquered Xiuwu, and regained the commendation of Zhao Jun’s recovery from Shi Jie because of the trapping of Huan Wen’s tribe. Gongxian County and Jixian County took the city of Fan even further, completely cleared out the Shijie Zhao Jun in the western part of Chaoge, and laid the foundation for the rescue of the trapped Huanwen subordinates.

  

   Xie An’s stable back road, they pounced hundreds of miles northwest of Jijin, turning into an attack route from north to south. There is only one reason for this. At that time, there were too many Shijie Zhaojun in Jijin, Fangtou, and Chaoge. Especially the line of Jijin and Chaoge was almost full of Shijie Zhaojun. If they were directly from the west Rushing to aid the besieged Huanwen Subdivision is bound to sink in. It is better to open enough space from the north to the south to involve Shijie and Zhao Jun to go north, and there are also more circuitous routes to choose from.

  

The facts also proved that Xie An’s choice of the direction of the rescue was correct. They attacked from the north to the south, posing an extreme threat to Shijie and Zhao Jun. Li Kuang gained an advantage in Suoyang City, and Xu Zheng led his army into Yangping County. , The Han army in three directions directly forced Shihu to give up staying on the front line and the turtle retreated to Yecheng.

  

   The current layout of the Han army is divided into several parts. Xie An's subordinate is in the northwest, Li Kuang's subordinate from Fanyang in Yangping County advances Wei Jun's Neihuang, and Ran Min is leading the main force in Jijin area.

  

  Shijie Zhaojun led by Shixuan, the main force is stationed in Fangtou, and the miscellaneous brand still surrounds Huanwensuo in Chaoge. Cao Fu led a part of the Shijie Zhao army to act as the outskirts. This group of Shijie Zhao army is located hundreds of miles north of Chaoge, which can be seen to be aimed at the Xie'an subdivision located in the northern part of the battlefield.

  

   The recent movement of the Han army was divided into three steps. First, the troops that responded to the refugees from Shijie Zhao’s territory withdrew south, and then Xie Anxian, the northernmost, led the army to move closer to Jijin. The first two steps are pulling and leading Shi Jie Zhao Jun to make corresponding changes. The third step is to stretch Shi Jie Zhao Jun, so that Shi Jie Zhao Jun is forced to make a mobilization, and the armies become loose. , To create an environment of engagement for the newly formed Northern Expedition Corps.

  

The Northern Expedition Corps, dominated by Ran Min, will consist of 50,000 Imperial Guards and 80,000 Field Troops. In other words, only these troops will attack northward. The rest of the troops, whether they are still on the battlefield or nearby, except the Northern Expedition Corps. The troops outside will enter the stage of defending on the spot or retreating to counter the rebellion.

  

   Shi Jie Zhao Guo made his own judgment on the movement of the Han army. Shi Hu is not clear about what considerations Shi Hu has. Shi Xuan, the front-line commander, thinks absolutely simple.

  

"The besieged Han army must be wiped out!" Shi Xuan, who looked at the naive look, was full of grimace: "They have fired fewer and fewer arrows recently. It can be seen that the military needs will be exhausted, and more soldiers will be sent out to attack. Change the arrows and try to consume their arrows as soon as possible to lay the foundation for the total attack."

  

  The soldiers in Shixuan’s mouth are Zahu and Jin people. In fact, most of the Shijie Zhaojun around Chaoge is also composed of Zahu and Jin people.

  

Shihu provoked racial feuds. While the Hu people of all ethnic groups in Shijie Zhao State slaughtered the Jin people, they also received orders to arrest the Jin people to the front line. The people who appeared in front of Huan Wen became the miscellaneous names with the Jin people as their main force and were driven. Forced to attack.

  

   Shi Xuan's judgment came from Zhang Qun and other high-level officials of Shi Jie. This group of Shijie officials made such a judgment based on common sense. From the movement of the Han army and the ethnic vendettas in various places, it cannot be said that they are too stupid. Judging the country.

  

   Chaoge’s Shi Jie Zhao Jun wanted to seize the opportunity to eliminate Huan Wen’s subordinates, and Ran Min worked very cooperatively to continue to stretch enough space for the attack that was about to begin, and the besieged Huan Wen was really anxious.

  

"How come!?" Huan Wen was talking about the arrow situation. He had already learned from Shijie Zhao Jun’s deliberate propaganda about the retreat of the peripheral Han army. While he was skeptical, the headquarter’s arrow supply was in trouble. Knowing that Liu Yan made the adjustment, for the first time he was a little panicked: "Impossible!"

  

The long history of   Tyoyou gave the answer with great certainty: "The production of arrows in the battlefield has been stopped. Judging from the reserves and consumption, it will bottom out in three days."

  

   "It shouldn't be!" Huan Wen really felt unbelievable. He was silent for a long time with an unusually ugly expression, and asked: "Liang Mo?"

  

   "Sufficient food." Tiaoyou's long history status manages a lot of things, including military logistics. He asked in a guessing tone: "It should be true that the outer reinforcements are retreating. There is a problem with the arrow supply. What is the big thing that we don't know?"

  

  Because of the status quo of being under siege, Huan Wen Tiaoyou actually did not know about the outbreak of racial vendettas everywhere. The amount of information determines the direction of a person's thinking. Huan Wen suspects that he has become an abandoned son. Tiao You actually has similar worries.

  

Tiao You’s panic is higher than Huan Wen’s, and his thoughts are more direct than Huan Wen’s. The soldiers on their side over seven levels are compiled from the original Ran’s Qin State, regardless of whether they are close to each other or because of weakening Ran’s Qin State. Under the influence of various realities, it is really impossible for the Han Central to give up them.

  

   The two are talking about a big account in the position of the middle army. They can still hear the call to kill if they are far away. The strange thing is that the call to kill is all in Chinese.

  

   "I don't believe that the king will abandon us!" Huan Wen put aside his panic and confusion, as if trying to convince himself: "The Han army has never been wiped out by the establishment. We will not be the first!"

  

  Tiaoyou frowned and stayed silent. To be as true as he guessed, the possibility of them becoming abandoned is infinite. After all, compared with the stability of the country in the future, it would be nothing for a unit to be wiped out by an organization.

  

   Huan Wen was upset and didn't want to talk any more. He walked on various fronts to boost morale, and made clear to the soldiers that the news spread by Shijie Zhao Jun was false, and the soldiers should be united.

  

The besieged Han army suddenly interrupted the supply of arrows and needed to control the consumption of arrows. Shi Xuan madly drove the onslaught. Before the Han army could keep the front outside the camp, it was only the first one after a day. The camp has become a battlefield.

  

   The new changes in the battle situation greatly stimulated Shi Xuan's enthusiasm. He ignored the 20,000 casualties in just one day, and drove the mixed soldiers under his command to attack from all sides.

  

   Huanwen wants to get rid of the rumors spread by Shijie Zhao Jun, but things are not that simple. In fact, the rumors really affected the morale of the soldiers, especially after the first barracks became a battlefield, the confidence has been declining over time.

  

On the second day of the new changes in the battle situation, Zhang Qun had a new psychological offensive, spreading to the besieged Huanwen’s tribe, saying that Ran Min was beheaded for launching a rebellion, and the center of the Han Dynasty was because most of them were from Ran clan. The cause of Qin State has given up on rescue, deliberately letting them be wiped out here.

  

On the one hand, it spread rumors that were plausibly confirmed by difficulties, and on the other hand, Zhang Qun also issued suggestions to Shi Xuan to persuade him to surrender. According to his original words, "The trapped Han army really surrendered is earned, and it can be done without surrendering. It further dampens their morale."

  

   Shi Xuan had a high degree of trust in Zhang Qun and accepted the suggestion without hesitation.

  

   People who came from the Ran clan’s Qin State basically have a certain knowledge of Ran Min. Once the rumor spread by Shi Jie and Zhao Jun arrived, Tiao You was really frightened.

  

According to Tiao You’s understanding of Ran Min, he knew that Ran Min was really not a willing person. He knew that Ran Min thought he was an ambitious hero, and Ran Min’s disintegration of the Qin State on his own was only forced by Ran Min. This is a dormant measure of the former Ran’s Qin State, and this is also a secret that the former Ran’s Qin State officials did not disclose. The difference is that after they learned about the true strength of the Han State, they divided themselves.

  

   [It’s not impossible! Tiaoyou was extremely anxious, thinking: [I don’t say it, it doesn’t mean that others don’t say it. Once anyone confesses to the king, Yong Zeng may rebel regardless of his rebellion, then the king’s reinforcements must be withdrawn by the stone. The hand of Jie annihilated this large distribution is the army of the original Ran's Qin army, didn't it become a matter of course? 】

  

People really can’t think about it, especially as a high-level person, they can’t easily panic and lose confidence. Huan Wen is trying his best to support. The problem is that they have more natural closeness to Tiaoyou who are organized by Ran’s Qin State. It was the soldiers' thoughts that Yoo's abnormal condition directly affected.

  

The chaos of people~www.wuxiamtl.com~ It will become unsustainable if you can survive the past difficulties. The direct result is that their first barracks fell in just one day, and the overall situation has changed even more urgently. Down.

  

   Huan Wen wanted to break the game, so he calmed down by himself and finally remembered that there were some prisoners, and he interrogated him personally to learn about the general situation of the world.

  

   "Stone Tiger provoked feuds of various races, and rioters everywhere continued to violently." Huan Wen knew what had happened, but his calm mind was confused again. He almost said to Tiao You with a cold face, "This will explain clearly. The reinforcements are really retreating, and they have to withdraw back to the country to counter the insurgency."

  

   "Ours was really abandoned?!" Tiao You turned pale in an instant, and said in a trembled voice: "Then there has been a rebellion..."

  

"That's not something we considered." Huan Wen's face was blue, but his expression looked extremely firm: "No matter what the situation is, even if I fight to the end of the battle, even if I die on the battlefield, I will never surrender! "

  

  Tiaoyou hadn't worked on Shijie before, but he had actually shaken Shi Xuan's persuasion to surrender. He couldn't help but be stunned when he saw that Huan Wen showed a firm will to resist to the end despite despair.
