Chapter 1200 1201 [Thousands of Miles of Happy Wind] (15)

Tiger City.

Above the festival hall, more than ten famous tiger generals were all present.

Commander Yin Wei looked around at everyone, looking at the five commanders and ten deputy commanders in turn. Finally, his eyes fell on Yin Dao, the commander of the Jingyu Battalion who was responsible for protecting the commander and investigating the military situation. He said lightly: "What's going on with Wu Jun recently?"

Yin Dao stood up and replied: "Come back to Commander, after the Wu Guozhong Route Army captured Lulong Village and Daokou Village one after another, they divided 10,000 troops to besiege Jiming Village, and then Zhenbei General Zhou Dewei led his troops eastward. According to our army's rangers

It is estimated that Zhou Dewei's troops numbered about 50,000 to 60,000, and the flags they raised were all the main force among the various divisions of the Wu army."

A commander frowned slightly and said: "Wu Jun wants to capture Guping Military Town? To the south of Guping is the Jinshui Camp. There are 50,000 elite soldiers who can support Guping Military Town at any time. Even if Zhou Dewei's command is the main force, just with his strength

If a force of 50,000 to 60,000 men attempts to capture Guping Military Town, they will probably lose a lot of their teeth."

Yin Wei said calmly: "In your opinion, is this Wu Jun's formation to spread suspicion?"

The man responded: "Master Hou, the general believes that Wu Jun's true intention is still Hucheng."

In fact, for the generals of Hucheng, this national war has been going on so far and they have nothing to do. The 60,000 defenders in the city are enough to cope with the enemy attack that is three times their own. However, the kings and ministers of Wu State are not fools. Of course they know how to attack Hucheng by force.

The price will be paid, so whether in the war two years ago or today, Wu Jun always adopts a method of intimidation against Hucheng.

If the Hucheng defenders take the initiative to attack, they may play into the Wu army's ambitions.

Yin Wei said slowly: "As early as more than a month ago, that is, after the Wu army sent troops, I received an order from Zuo Junji. This war will be divided into three stages. The first stage is for our army to defend Dingxi University.

Battalion, and at the same time take the initiative to attack on the northern front, first to deal with the main cavalry under Xie Lin. Now you also know that Gaoshan County killed nearly 20,000 cavalry of the Western Wu North Route Army in the first battle."

Everyone nodded.

Yin Wei continued: "The second stage is to seek greater victory. It just wants to complete Zuo Junji's strategy so that our army can no longer be trapped in the city."

The generals couldn't help but show excitement on their faces.

Yin Wei remained silent.

Yin Dao knew why his father suddenly hesitated. After all, Gu Liang's idea was a bit bold. If he could win, it would be possible once and for all, but if something went wrong, it would be very likely that the whole line would be defeated. In this extremely complicated battle situation, Hucheng's role is to contain it.

Xiwu has a large number of troops, otherwise they will not be able to defend their retreat.

Although Gu Liang is the coach of the Western Army, Hucheng's position in the entire Western Army system is very special. Generally speaking, the coach of Hucheng does not need to obey the coach of the Western Army. In many cases, he has a certain degree of autonomy, which is also allowed by the court.

permissions.

After a while, Yin Wei said in a deep voice: "Yu Zhen."

The previous commander immediately stood up and said: "The general is here."

Yin Wei looked at this person and said: "You will lead more than 10,000 Nanyang Guards and set off along the northern trail in the early morning of tomorrow. You must reach Guyuan Village within one day."

Yu Zhen said excitedly: "The last general takes command!"

Everyone else cast envious glances, as it was difficult for the defenders of Tiger City to take the initiative.

Yin Wei said again: "Yin Dao."

Yin Dao stood up and saluted: "The general will be here at the end."

Yin Wei looked at his eldest son with a bit of hope in his eyes: "Jingyu Camp has recently strengthened its reconnaissance of the southern area and gradually moved to the west."

Yin Dao said loudly: "Follow the order!"

…

On February 25th, Emperor Xuanwu of Western Wu received several urgent military messages one after another.

Tens of thousands of Liang's Longbow Army crossed the Beitiao River and marched steadily towards Xishan Village where Xie Lin's troops were stationed.

More than 10,000 troops from the Hucheng Division moved northward and were approaching Guyuan Village at the corner of Beitiao River.

The Hucheng Jingyu Camp moved to the west, seemingly with the intention of attacking the Wu army's rear supplies. In order to guard against this elite ranger, which numbered more than 5,000, Emperor Xuanwu immediately ordered an additional 10,000 cavalry to protect the main grain transportation route.

Liang Guo's Jinshui Camp remained stationary, and there was no sign of dividing troops to support Guping Military Town as Zhou Dewei had expected.

Various situations indicate that Gu Liang finally decided to place the main battlefield on the northern front. As long as he can deal with the Northern Route Army led by Xie Lin, he will have more room to deal with it, and he can even transfer the northern front troops to the central line to secure the victory.

Securely protect Guping Military Town.

As a result, the strategic intentions of both parties gradually became apparent.

At the suggestion of a group of civil servants and military officials, Emperor Xuanwu temporarily dispatched 20,000 main troops to assist Zhou Dewei.

On February 28, Zhou Dewei led his troops to arrive more than ten miles west of Guping Military Town.

Although two years have passed, it seems that the traces left by that war can still be seen in this area. Zhou Dewei's military style is very open and wide, which is different from Zhang Qingbai and Xie Lin. After the whole army set up camp, he issued

The first military order was to send out soldiers and civilians to block the rift valley in the south.

The reason why Zhang Qingbai lost two years ago was because Luo Huanzhang, the then coach of the Jinshui camp, led his troops out of the rift valley, defeated the Wu army's flanks, and then completed the encirclement that shocked the world.

On February 29th, the Wu army launched an offensive against Guping Military Town, and the battle was extremely cruel.

There were only about 10,000 defenders. Faced with Wu Jun's relentless attack, their casualties rose rapidly.

If Guping Military Town falls, the interior of Lingzhou will be completely exposed to the sight of the Xiwu cavalry, so both sides can claim no ground.

Behind the military town, a continuous army was waiting in silence.

In the Chinese army formation, Gu Liang stood alone under the commander's flag, looking at the western sky that was blocked by Guping Military Town.

It seems that the cries of killing on the walls of the military town can still be heard here. The lieutenants and soldiers all looked solemn because they knew that not far away, their comrades were engaged in a fierce fight. This time Wu Jun relied on his absolute advantage

The military strength of Guping Military Town is inevitable. Although the soldiers really want to enter the military town to support them, everyone is ordered to stay in place and recharge their batteries.

When the Western Wu monarchs and ministers all focused their attention on the north, thinking that Gu Liang was preparing to finish the strangulation of Xie Lin's tribe, he had actually quietly come south to this place.

He was accompanied by more than 20,000 troops who had experienced the temper of the battlefield, namely the Lingzhou central defender and the Lingzhou right defender.

This is also all the reinforcements that Xiwu knows that the Daliang Western Army can use.

"Father." Gu Fan came to the side and bowed to salute.

Gu Liang asked calmly: "Has the intelligence come from the north?"

Gu Fan responded: "I just received the news that they have arrived at the scheduled location."

Gu Liang exhaled a breath, turned to look at his youngest son and said, "You don't want to participate in this battle."

Gu Fan was stunned, then shook his head and said: "Father, my son knows what you are thinking, but please let your son accompany you to protect your father!"

Gu Liang smiled and said gently but firmly: "Be obedient."

Gu Fan wanted to say more, and Gu Liang continued: "Before I left, I promised your mother that I would not let you continue to take risks this time. In fact, my father knows that you have never liked war, and you have resisted it from the bottom of your heart since you were a child.

But because you were born in the Gu family, you are unable to change this reality. What you like most is to travel around the world and indulge in the mountains and rivers. After the death of the Nanqin girl, you became even more tired of intrigues and battlefield fighting."

Gu Fan lowered his head and said: "Father..."

Gu Liang waved his hand and said calmly: "My father understands your worries, but Zhou Dewei wants to kill his father on the battlefield. This is not that easy."

Gu Fan nodded and said, "Yes."

Gu Liang said no more.

…

The third day of March, the fourth day of the Battle of Guping.

In the early morning, when Wu Jun was cleaning up their formation, they suddenly discovered that the Guping Military Town, which had been in danger for several days, actually opened the west gate on its own initiative.

The sun is shining brightly and the spring breeze is blowing across the earth.
