Chapter 216 Battlefield Tiger Prison? Hangu or Tongguan?! Is Lu Xun the next villager? A gift from Erqiao!
After sending Lu Bu to the Western Regions to become king and hegemony, Liu Bei asked everyone to discuss matters.
“Everyone, Yuan Shao sent 200,000 troops, Cao Cao sent 150,000 troops, and Sun Ce sent 60,000 troops. A total of 410,000 troops were sent to attack us. In addition, Kebineng also gathered ten troops from tribes large and small from Xianbei and Karasuma. Wan, soldiers enter Yanmen County”
“What do you say to do?”
“Wenhe, tell me first.” Jia Xu looked at the map,
“Master, at this time, Cao Cao resorted to the strategy of joining forces and gathered a large army to attack us, intending to defeat us. It can be said that this is a confrontation between the Central Plains and Guanzhong. Back then, the Six Kingdoms joined forces to fight against the strong Qin, and they fought several times at Hangu Pass , each wins and loses”
“Our army has three battlefields to choose from. One is that our army can enter Luoyang and rely on Luoyang Jiancheng and Hulao Pass to confront the Kwantung princes, just like Dong Zhuo faced the eighteen princes.”
Liu Bei shook his head,
“Luoyang is still in ruins. Our army has dispatched more than 200,000 people, and the supply pressure is huge. The main force of the Allied Forces is very close to Yuzhou and Jizhou. We may not be able to fight their consumption.”
Jia Xu pointed to Hongnong County again,
“My lord sent Lu Xun and Xu Sheng to farm near Hongnong County, which was Hangu Pass in the Qin Dynasty. Qin State used Hangu Pass to repel the Six Nations Allied Forces several times, which can be described as a natural danger.”
Those who are not familiar with the terrain all have bright eyes, but Guo Jia shook his head,
“At this time, Hangu Pass has lost its dangerous terrain. The Yellow River has been eroded by the sediment for many years, and the riverbed has sunk. On the north side of the Chousang Plain, a large beach has appeared. The Allied forces can bypass Hangu Pass and enter the pass. ”
“Under the erosion of muddy water, Chou Sang Plain is no longer steep, and the army can easily cross the pass along the plateau.”
Jia Xu pointed to a point on the map to the south of where the Yellow River turns in a zigzag shape.
“The last thing is to stick to Tongguan, with the Loess Plateau as a barrier, the Yellow River to the north, the Qinling Mountains to the south, the Tonghe River and Jingou to the west, and the Yuanwanggou to the east.
If the allied forces want to cross Tongguan, there is only one narrow road, Huangxiangban, and even a million-strong army cannot deploy it.”
Pang Tong interjected,
“Tongguan is 400 miles away from Luoyang, which greatly lengthens the supply lines of the Guandong princes. Our army sent troops to attack their food and grass routes. After a long time, their troops and horses will retreat.”
Fazheng frowned,
“Our army sticks to Tongguan. Of course we can hold it, but Cao Cao and Yuan Shao can turn to attack Hedong County, cross Pujindu by force, and spare Tongguan to attack Guanzhong.”
Liu Bei nodded secretly, this is the route Cao Cao used to attack Ma Chao and Han Sui’s coalition forces in history.
Everyone is a little uncomfortable, it seems that every place has advantages and disadvantages.
Liu BeiLooking at Guo Jia,
“Feng Xiao, what do you think?”
“My lord, I feel that our army can send a brave general to guard Tongguan, and the army will build a continuous camp on the north bank of the Yellow River and south of Zhongtiao Mountain to occupy the allied forces.”
Everyone was shocked,
“Military division, is our army going to give up defending the city and fight the allies in the field?”
You know, the allied army is 400,000, and Liu Bei’s Yizhou soldiers and Hanzhong soldiers can’t be mobilized. In Guanzhong, Bingzhou, and Liangzhou, except for the city guards and Zhao Yun who guards against Xianbei, the most they can mobilize is about 180,000.
Guo Jia laughed and said,
“As long as our army stands firmly in the camp and holds out against the allies, they will have difficulty in supplying supplies and will surely retreat when their food roads are attacked.”
Guo Jia pointed to the Yellow River again,
“The Allied forces on the south bank of the Yellow River failed to attack Tongguan. They crossed the river to the north bank, and the supply had to cross the river.”
“Pujin Ferry passes through Tongguan to the area of Shanxian County, where you can sail. My lord asked Gan Ning and Zhang Ren to train 20,000 sailors, which will come in handy at this time.”
Everyone’s eyes lit up,
“It turns out that the lord has already made arrangements, and this subordinate admires it!”
Liu Bei laughed and said,
“I didn’t expect that the navy would be used so quickly. It’s just that Cao Cao is too afraid of me and waits for us, so I can’t wait to join forces to defeat us.”
Everyone laughed, and Liu Bei stood up, “All generals listen!”
Everyone held their fists together in awe, “The subordinate is here!”
“Guo Jia, Jia Xu, Pang Tong, and Fazheng are the military advisers accompanying the army”
“Zhang Fei, Gao Shun, Huang Zhong, Ma Chao, Zhang Liao, Tai Shici, Ju Yi, Gan Ning, Zhang Ren, Xu Huang, Pang De, E Huan, and Chen Dao led our troops to fight with me!”
“promise!”
“Tian Yu, Yan Gang, Guan Hai and you three went to Yanmen County to assist Zilong in defeating Kobineng’s Xianbei and Karasuma allied forces.”
“Tell Zilong, our army’s victory this time, whether we can let the meritorious soldiers get rewards depends on his performance!”
“promise!”
“Order Lu Xun and Xu Sheng to lead 15,000 troops to defend Tongguan”
“Order Yunchang and Xu Shu to lead the troops to meet me at Hedong!”
“Order Xu Rong, Zhang He, and Yu Du to guard the Zhongtiao Mountain pass and prevent the Allied forces from rushing into the Hedong Basin to cause chaos”
“promise!”
Pang Tong pointed in the direction of Wuguan,
“My lord, although Liu Biao will not participate in the war, you must be careful of Cao Cao’s excuse to attack Wuguan.”
Liu Bei nodded, “Shi Yuan is right, increase the number of troops for Li Yan and Huo Jun to 10,000 to secure Wuguan.”
“promise!”
“Ju Shou, Lu Su, you are responsible for the entire dispatch of Guanzhong”
“promise!”
“Du Ji, Jia Kui, you are responsible for the allocation and supply of food and grass for this army.”
“promise!”
There are also a lot more bullet screens in the live broadcast room,
“I’ll go, my blood boils when I see it, I can’t wait to change with Liu Bei!”
“Upstairs, I suspect that you are looking at the backyard of the big-eared thief!”
“By the way, Liu Bei’s generals are all so fierce.”
“The big-eared thief actually arranged for the little-known Lu Xun to guard Tongguan? Gone!”
“Yeah, Lu Xun doesn’t look like a fierce general”
“The people upstairs who know fart will be planning instead of being brave. The one who can make the big-eared thief pay so much attention may be the next villager!”
The whole Guanzhong and Bingzhou began to move, food, weapons, arrows, horses and so on.
The soldiers also bid farewell to their families and went to the battlefield,
The mood of the people is also relatively stable. After all, Duke Xuande has won every battle. Although the number of people on the opposite side is double that of this side, so what!
Liu Bei also took advantage of this free time to take a break first, and Erqiao also played a pleasant song for Liu Bei, which made Liu Bei linger a little…
After all, it is so rare to have such a similar girl, and it is also a kind of enjoyment to listen to their melodious voices.
Er Qiao also knew that Liu Bei was about to face the greatest challenge, so in order to let him ease his emotions, the two also tried their best to meet Liu Bei’s request…
Little Joe looked up,
“Husband, this battle is about the fate of the big man, we can’t help you too much.” Da Qiao was immersed in playing the instrument, which made Liu Bei feel comfortable.
pull little joe,
“Let’s not disturb my husband, let him calm down and think about things”
“Oh”
Xiao Qiao nodded seriously, “Well, I was negligent!”
Liu Bei really didn’t think about anything, but his breathing was a bit rough, obviously he was seriously enjoying the joy of silk and bamboo, and cultivated his sentiments with art
It’s just that the screen in the live broadcast room is black, and everyone can’t enjoy it…
Before the army went out, Lu Su led Liu Ye to come. Liu Bei was overjoyed and took Liu Ye’s hand.
“A certain army is about to go out, and Zi Yang just goes out with me!”
Liu Ye was grateful to Liu Bei for his attention,
“It’s the lord!”
Only then did Liu Bei wake up,
“Zi Yang, we’re tired all the way, let’s take a rest,” Liu Ye hurriedly said,
“My lord, I’m not tired. If I don’t participate in this battle, I will regret it for the rest of my life!”
Both Liu Bei and Lu Su laughed out loud!
The army set out from Chang’an, crossed Pujin Ferry, and went to the village on the other side of Tongguan and on the north bank of the Yellow River.
All the people in Hedong south of Zhongtiao Mountain migrated to the Guanzhong area! Not a single chicken, not a single grain of rice will be left to Yuan Shao and Cao Cao!
Liu Bei went to Tongguan first with his bodyguard cavalry.
rushed to Tongguan,
Soldiers are seriously preparing rolling stones, giant trees and other sharp weapons for defending the city. Lu Xun and Xu Sheng came to welcome Liu Bei 2.6.
“Bo Yan, Wen Xiang, how are your preparations going?”
The two clasped their fists together,
“Don’t worry, my lord, my subordinates will definitely guard Tongguan. Yuan Shao and Cao Cao’s 200,000 troops will not let them advance an inch!”
Lu Xun and Xu Sheng were moved by the lord’s trust. With so many famous generals, they ordered them to guard Tongguan, obviously they valued them very much.
The two are also very confident. Tongguan is a natural danger. Even if there are millions of troops, they can only send a few people to attack. The road is too narrow!
Liu Bei inspected the lower city defenses and found that the city defenses were well prepared and set up twenty trebuchets remodeled by Ma Jun.
With these catapults, Lu Xun is more confident.
But Liu Ye hurried up to check these trebuchets, and sighed, “My lord, with such a sharp weapon, it’s a great way to defend the city!”
Liu Bei laughed and said,
“This improved trebuchet, but the horseIt took hundreds of Jun and them more than half a year to study it.”
Liu Ye cupped his fists,
“My lord’s layout is so far away, I’m deeply admired!”
Lu Xun pointed over there again,
“Brother Ziyang, there are dozens of bed crossbows over there!”
Liu Ye?!.
