Chapter 376: Pengcheng City Headquarters vs. Generals

Huaibei, Pengcheng.

Fu Rong, wearing a general's robe and armor, stood at the top of the city. His gaze was like a torch, looking at the groups of troops as black as the Yangtze River, extending from the side of the city to the southwest far away, until the end of the horizon.

, the infantry carried the heavy baggage cart, while the cavalry slowly moved forward. The soldiers' boots and iron hooves stepped on the frozen soil of the snow field. The crunching sound echoed in the field, while the cavalry was fighting as they moved forward.

The sound of frequent drums is accompanied by the sound of a person's heartbeat, making people's blood rush, and a passionate fire eager to fight is burning in the chest.

A general in his forties, with an eagle nose, falcon eyes, and a curly beard, stood next to Fu Rong. Isn't it Liang Cheng, the general of the Qin State, the governor of Jingzhou, and the general of the Wei?

Fu Rong sighed softly and said: "Our marching speed is still too slow. If we mix foot and horse, marching in this ice and snow, I'm afraid we won't reach Shouchun in five days."

Liang Cheng nodded: "What Yang Pinggong said is absolutely true. It's just an army of hundreds of thousands. It's impossible to move too fast unless the infantry is abandoned and the cavalry rushes in."

Fu Rong curled up his lips and turned to look at Liang Cheng: "Ah Cheng, we have a good relationship together, and at the same time, we are apprentices to Wang Lugong, and we are brothers. There is no one else here, so there is no need to see each other. We still interact with each other like we did when we were children."

Weigh it."

Liang Cheng's father, Liang Ping Lao, was a fierce general at the founding of the Qin State, with a high position. After Wang Meng refused Huan Wen's recruitment, he took the initiative to work as a retainer in Liang Ping Lao's house. Liang Ping Lao was surprised by Wang Meng's talent and looked for opportunities.

He recommended him to Fu Jian, who was still just the Duke of the country at that time, and from then on, the golden pair of kings and prime ministers was born. Liang Cheng and Fu Rong had studied many Han poetry, classics, and military art with Wang Meng as their teacher since they were young.

In terms of tactics, they can be said to be brothers in the same discipline.

Liang Cheng hesitated for a moment and said, "Ah Rong, is this really appropriate to call me?"

Fu Rong smiled slightly: "What's inappropriate? More than twenty years have passed, but our brotherhood will not change. In fact, only we, the descendants of the nobles, are the ones who are truly blood thicker than water and are willing to do anything for us."

Those who died in Guoxiao are not like those defeated Hulu, huh, they wish our Great Qin was finished."

Liang Cheng frowned slightly: "Ah Rong, don't say that. The last time you spoke about Murong Chui and Yao Chang publicly in front of the King of Heaven, you already made the King of Heaven unhappy. This time, the King of Heaven will use them in the southern expedition. These words

If it spreads, it will not be a good thing for you."

Fu Rong sneered and said: "Use them? If we really use them, they will be finished. Lu Gong has long seen that they have bad intentions, and they are thinking about the war between Qin and Jin, and then reap the benefits. Now his judgment has been confirmed, you

Look, Murong Chui has been standing still on the Jingzhou front line, and has set up camp to confront Huan Chong's troops on the opposite side. Yao Chang is also the same. He went down the river from Bashu and was supposed to make a thousand miles straight to Jiangling, but he ended up in the Three Gorges.

They stopped in the area, they are just playing tricks and want to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers and tigers!"

Liang Cheng sighed: "This is the reason why I took the initiative to come here this time. Murong Chui has no intention of entering the country at all. My stay in Jingzhou will be in vain. It's better to get closer to the Lianghuai battlefield as soon as possible. Maybe I can help you.

Help the King of Heaven."

Fu Rong smiled slightly and took Liang Cheng's hand: "At the critical moment, we Di Ren brothers are still reliable. Now we can't control the two traitors Murong Chui and Yao Chang, and the King of Heaven is so determined to march south this time.

, it is impossible for him to turn back unless he makes some achievements."

Liang Cheng's brows furrowed: "The Jin army was very smart. They made no resistance in Huaibei and just withdrew. This Pengcheng is just an empty city. They didn't leave us a grain of rice or a single citizen. Look.

Get up, they want to fortify the wall and clear the country. Once our front line is stretched and the food route is in danger, they will dispatch the Beifu soldiers and counterattack across the board."

Fu Rong nodded: "Yes, this is a trap. According to common sense, we should not jump into it. It is the safest way to camp here and wait until this winter passes before making a decision. This is also what Murong Chui and Yao

The reason why Chang explained it to the King of Heaven."

Liang Cheng smiled and said: "Listen to what you mean, Ah Rong. You don't want to garrison, but you want to attack."

Fu Rong said sternly: "Yes, Murong Chui and the others are being cunning and not moving forward, but we, the Di army, cannot do this. In this battle, the king of heaven is coming with all his troops. We must at least sweep across Jiangbei and capture Guangling. If we can eliminate or

It would be best to severely injure the Beifu soldiers. The elite of the Jin army are these 100,000 Beifu soldiers. If they can be eliminated, Dajiang will not have anything to worry about."

Liang Cheng frowned: "But the Beifu Army is not dispatching at all now. They are gathering in the Guangling area, waiting for work. If we forcefully dispatch and want a decisive battle, I'm afraid the chance of winning is not high."

Fu Rong sneered and said: "Then we will find a way to force the Beifu Army to dispatch and fight with them where we want. Now it seems that Huaibei and the others gave up soon, but in Huainan, I don't expect them to give up lightly!"

Liang Cheng raised his eyebrows: "Are you talking about Shouchun? Didn't Yang Qiu's subordinates come back and say that the Jin army is ready to abandon the defense? Our scouts have also seen that many people in the city are already evacuating."

Fu Rong shook his head: "Only the old, weak, women and children were evacuated, while the defenders and Ding Zhuang stayed. This shows that they do not want to give up Shouchun. Ah Cheng, do you know why this is?"

Liang Cheng smiled and said: "I just arrived yesterday and I don't know much about these things. However, in my opinion, the Jin army's behavior is very strange. If you want to defend Shouchun, you should send a large number of reinforcements into the city. But now Shouchun is three meters wide."

There is no large Jin army within a hundred miles. The main force of the Beifu Army is still gathering in the Guangling area. I heard that grain ships go back and forth on the Yangtze River every day. I am afraid that their military rations have not been prepared yet. At this time, they cannot go forward.

A decisive battle."

Fu Rong nodded with satisfaction: "That's it. From the point of view of the art of war, Shouchun cannot be defended, but the Jin army insisted on defending Shouchun. Probably the people within the Jin Kingdom had opinions on the war ahead.

The Xie family's Beifu army abandoned Huaibei without firing an arrow. Seeing that my army was about to arrive in Huainan, the aristocratic families in Jiankang City and the emperor were probably unhappy. So Xie Xuan could only fight this battle in Shouchun.

, at least make a show of it.”

Liang Chengqi asked: "Isn't Huainan the Yuzhou of the Jin Kingdom? It is supposed to be the place of Huan Yi. Why is it Xie Xuan's turn to take charge of it?"

Fu Rong laughed: "Huan Yi did not dare to confront our army head-on. He hid in Liyang early. Many of his troops also went to Liyang. This time he did not dare to come to support Shouchun. Now Shouchun

Spring is an isolated city with only a few thousand soldiers and horses, so it is not difficult to conquer it."

Liang Cheng nodded: "So Ah Rong, you want to speed up the march and attack Shouchun?"
