Chapter 240 Relying on Borrowing
Just as Li Rui and Sima Fan were working together, gritting their teeth and doing their best, and using the extremely limited resources and extremely urgent time to build the Ark of Doomsday, Doomsday is coming at a terrible speed.
After learning that Shi Le had wiped out more than 100,000 Jin troops in Ningping City, and even almost all the civil and military backbones of the Western Jin court were caught in one go, Liu Cong did not waste even a second of time and immediately ordered the final attack on Luoyang.
The first to take action was Hu Yanyan. He led 27,000 elite imperial guards from the Huns and Han Kingdom, claiming to be 100,000, and launched a fierce attack towards Yima and Xin'an.
The war madman Liu Yao was a little slower, leading more than 50,000 infantry and cavalry troops, claiming to be 200,000, and attacked Yiyang with a storm.
He once made Liu Yuan very angry and threatened to kill him, Liu Jing, also led 40,000 infantry and cavalry troops to launch a fierce attack towards Heyin.
Liu Can, Liu Chang and other princes also led their own army, following these fierce men to take advantage of the military achievements and gain qualifications. This time, the Huns and Han Kingdom no longer hid their strength and took out almost all their possessions. More than 100,000 troops were like floods, and they collided with a rush toward the weak line of defense that had blocked them for a whole winter.
After the Jin army counterattacked and recaptured Yiyang and Xin'an, the Huns and Han Kingdoms did not launch a large-scale attack on Luoyang again, and some were just small-scale attrition wars. It was not that they were not strong enough, but that Liu Cong felt that when the morale and morale of the Jin army was completely exerted, launching a large-scale attack on Luoyang at this time would be a self-requirement, and half the result would be achieved with twice the effort. Moreover, in winter, the Yellow River was frozen, and the military supplies and grass needed by the Huns could not be transported to the front line by water. By land transportation, it could not withstand the huge consumption brought by large-scale battles, so it would be better to take it leisurely and fight slowly. Now the last main force of the Jin army was wiped out in Ningping City, the ice of the Yellow River melted, the river water surged, and the water transportation became very convenient. If you don't attack at this time, then when will you wait!
Wang Mi and Shi Le were not idle either. After the main force of the Jin army was destroyed, they immediately launched an attack from the east to Luoyang. Shi Le even opened a lucky gift package in Wucang, blocking the escape group led by Sima Yue's confidant He Lun, Li Yun and others. In this escape group, Sima Yue's prince Sima Pi, Sima Yue's widow Pei Fei, and more than 30 royal princes... I have to say that this gift package is really too big, no wonder Shi Le decisively gave up attacking Nanyang and turned north to block the escape army.
This is an opportunity to win a super lottery prize! Compared with this big gift package, Nanyang is nothing!
I was too lazy to describe the lottery process. On one side, there was a stray dog who fled in a hurry, and on the other side, the tiger and wolf army that had just destroyed more than 100,000 elite Jin army troops. The result of the head-on collision was achieved with gallstones. After a brief confrontation, the Jin army was defeated, and He Lun and Li Yun escaped by chance. Thousands of Jin army, together with the thirty-six royal royal family kings, did not escape, and all were killed, and Concubine Pei was captured.
Shi Le, the big devil, really became the lawn mower of the Sima family, and they were all about fighting when they killed the royal family.
In contrast, Wang Mi did not have such good luck. In the Battle of Ningping City, he brought thousands of cavalry over to join Shi Le and kill the main force of the Jin army together, but by the time he arrived, the Jiehu army was already cleaning the battlefield; he also failed to catch up in the Battle of Wucang. When he arrived, Shi Le had already entered the dozens of Sima farms. Although he swept across Yingchuan, Yuzhou, and Sizhou in the past few months, it was meaningless. These places were almost unmanned land, and it was useless to grab them. Seeing that the slave-born cub opened two shocking gift packs in succession, but his family rarely had the results of his own victory. Wang Mi was resentful and led his tens of thousands of troops to attack Hulao Pass, saying that he would rush into Luoyang in front of the Huns and Jie Hu to grab a ticket and get some money back!
The guardian of Hulao was Xiao Yu. Originally, he was obeying the orders of the governor of Sizhou, Yang Quan, who led the guardian Xingyang and faced Wang Mi's tens of thousands of troops. He led the guardian Xingyang to support the Hulao Army. The two cooperated well. Wang Mi fought for more than a month and could not chew on Xingyang. However, half a month ago, Wang Mi managed to bribe a general who guarded the city. The other party secretly threw ropes down at night and sent more than 100 soldiers carefully selected by Wang Mi to the city, cut open the city gate and let Wang Mi's army enter the city. The Jin army in the city was caught off guard and collapsed in an instant. Yang Quan and his son were all killed in battle. Xingyang, a place that must be fought for, fell into Wang Mi's hands.
Now, Xiao Yu had to face Wang Mi's army alone.
Wang Mi's army had more than 40,000 people, while the sound shooting part was only 4,000. The 10-to-one force comparison was also high on one side, and the morale was low on the other, which was simply desperate. But even so, Xiao Yu did not make Wang Mi feel better. He calmly commanded the imperial guards and carried Wang Mi's attacks one after another. Wang Ci dug trenches, ladders, and dug tunnels. He used all the tricks he could use, but every attack was killed and injured under the dense and precise rain of arrows in the sound shooting part, and failed to shake the Tiger Prison defense line.
Shi Le rushed over and saw Wang Mi attacking fiercely for days and corpses everywhere, but with few results in battle, he couldn't help laughing: "It's so difficult to fight more than 40,000 people, 4,000 people, can you do it?"
Wang Mi said angrily: "You can do it!"
Shi Le: "I'll do it if I come!" He personally directed the headquarters to launch an attack on Hulao Pass, but in just one morning he lost more than 1,000 people. Kui, who rushed the most powerful, got more than 40 arrows and shot like a sea urchin. Fortunately, he was wearing two layers of armor, otherwise he would have died long ago.
Well, Zhuge Liang borrowed arrows on a straw boat, and Shi Le borrowed arrows on a Kui'an. The same trick was to destroy the general.
Diao Ying, who also rushed very hard, was much more lucky, and only one arrow was shot on his body... But the arrow shot into his mouth, for a long time in the future, he would have missed whatever he ate. Before leading the team to attack the city, this guy had said wildly: "A huge city like Xuchang has been taken down by our army. What is a big city in Hulao? We stepped on it with one kick!" Seeing him running back with an arrow in his mouth and whimpering, Wang Mi's minister said that he deserved it. This arrow was a lesson for him to speak wildly, otherwise why would he only shoot his mouth and not his butt? There were many targets on his butt.
After learning the power of shooting, Shi Le decisively said that he would have to come here personally to fight this kind of walnut-like city. My command was full of cavalry, so I really couldn't do this job. After that, he took his troops to bypass Hulao Pass from afar, so he went to find other Jin troops to be unlucky, and returned the battlefield to Wang Mi.
Wang Mi continued to command the army to attack Hulao Pass, while Shi Le thought about it on the map and found a way. He led nine thousand cavalry through Mi County and Yangcheng, and crossed Songshan without knowing it and approached Yingyang. According to his vision, he would take Yingyang with lightning speed, then rush out of the mountainous area, launch an attack on Xincheng, cut off Yishui in one fell swoop, and cut off the artery that the Jin army in Nanyang transfusion blood to Luoyang through the Wanluo Ancient Road.
The plan was perfect, but there was a small mistake here in Yingyang:
Yingyang is not unattended, there are 700 Jin troops here.
Seven hundred Jin army infantry from Liangzhou.
His luck was really too heartbroken. He didn't need to chew this hard bone if he arrived two days ago: the defenders of Yingyang collectively ran away a few days ago, and Yingyang became an empty city. It took Beigong Jing a whole three days to learn about the news. He gritted his teeth and squeezed out seven hundred people from the already extremely nervous force to hand it over to the command of the commander Li Lie, and urgently filled the gap. The seven hundred people arrived in Yingyang two days ago and took over the empty city.
What was Mr. Shi Le doing two days ago?
Oh, I just met a dirty face under the Hulao City, and led the army away from Hulao, angrily, and was ready to attack the new city through the mountains and valleys.
In other words, Mr. Shi Le actually had the chance to score an empty goal. The goalkeeper had run away for several days, and the time window was enough for him. But he was so desperate that he had to go to Huzhu and wasted his precious time. When he was in the city of Yingyang, he had to face the fierce Liangzhou horse again.
I have to say that Beigong Jing is really Shi Le's number one nemesis. When he hit Beigong Jing, his protagonist's halo was not good at all. God has given him a great opportunity to empty goal, but when he kicked the goal, he forced Beigong Jing to discover the loophole in time and sent an emergency goalkeeper to fill the spot.
Still want to shoot in the empty gate? Go and be your dream of spring and autumn!
In the small city of Yingyang, a second battle between the Liangzhou soldiers and the Jiehu Light Cavalry broke out.
Li Lie is only nineteen years old this year. He is quite young, but he is very brave. As soon as he arrives in Yingyang, he releases a scout and detects Shi Le's movements in time. He knows that it will be difficult for him to defend Yingyang if his troops passively defend, so he only leaves two hundred people in the city to set up flags, and sets out grass men and suspects. He leads 500 people to sneak out of the city and ambush them in the mountain road twenty miles outside the city.
Shi Le is also an old man. He has experienced many battles and has not known how many generals of the Jin army have defeated, but he has never encountered such a bold character. Only those seven hundred people, one person can't even defend a city, but he dares to lead 500 people out of the city to ambush! It's okay to fight an ambush, but he still ran twenty miles outside the city to fight an ambush. He has never seen such an evil move! When his vanguard troops entered the ambush circle, the crossbows on both sides of the mountain road were fired at the same time, and the javelins were as dense as raindrops. The Jiehu cavalry caught off guard. The panicked Jiehu cavalry ran around the mountain road, scrambling to escape. How could they form a formation? Li Lie took the opportunity to lead 500 Liangzhou infantry soldiers to jump out of both sides of the mountain road, rushing into the chaos and slashing wildly. The narrow mountain road immediately flew with flesh and blood and corpses everywhere.
During the melee, Zhang Yepu (a good name) who was fighting the vanguard, was caught by Li Lie when he led dozens of personal soldiers to fight bravely. With a greeting, a rain of javelins was called over. Zhang Yepu was on the spot, with thirteen javelins in his body and nailed to the ground, and he could not fall until he died.
Well, under Hulao City, Kui An borrowed arrows with his body, and outside Yingyang City, Zhang Yepu borrowed javelins with his body. These grandsons rely on borrowing everything!
