People from all walks of life in western Henan arrived at Heqiao one after another and stationed themselves inside and outside Nancheng.
Li Tai was true to his word. As soon as these generals reported the strength of their respective units, he immediately opened the arsenal in the city and allocated the corresponding ordnance to them.
The Heyang Nancheng Arsenal is a comprehensive warehouse with all kinds of storage materials for marching, camping, fighting, etc.
Since Li Tai was generous to others, he was not stingy in this regard. On the premise that it did not affect the performance of combat effectiveness, he did not break down whether these materials were used for combat. General felt tents, beds, etc. were also distributed to those who
Volunteer Teacher in Western Henan Province.
After receiving these supplies, these people were very happy, and their words were full of gratitude to Li Tai. They were called righteous troops, and they were actually a voluntary army, fighting on the front line of the war with the Eastern Wei Dynasty.
, but the Bafu funding available is very rare.
For example, the Tongrail Defense stationed by Wei Fabao was already considered a relatively formal and important defense city set up by the Western Dynasty in Guannan, firmly guarding the Luoshui and Yiyang lines. However, since the Battle of Mangshan last year, the Tongrail Defense has almost
No material allocation was received from Huazhou Bafu.
"The great kindness of Lord Xihe will be unforgettable to all the generals in the future!"
Seeing that the generals and soldiers in the camp had all put on brand-new hakama-pleated military uniforms, all of them tall and straight, with high spirits, smiling happily as they rubbed and wiped the bows, swords, and spears distributed to them, Wei Fabao and others also looked pleased.
I was even more grateful to Li Taishi.
Li Tai bent down and helped the generals up one by one who were paying their respects. He looked at them and said with a smile: "Since you are willing to believe in me, all the generals are rushing to come to my aid. I should repay you! The bandits here rely on force."
Wei, who has tortured the people of Heluo for a long time, now seizes their city and drives away his army. If the accumulated goods in the treasury are not shared by the righteous soldiers who have fought hard for many years, who will benefit?"
"Xihe Gong spoke uprightly, which made the generals and others feel ashamed. Although the battle with the thieves lasted for a long time, the results were mediocre. If Xihe Gong had not led the army to advance bravely, the generals and others would not have known that the cities of Heyang could be defeated directly, and they would just take refuge.
Cowardly..."
Hearing what Li Tai said, Wei Fabao and others couldn't help but look ashamed.
Before, they were suppressed in the Guannan area by the troops of the Eastern Wei Dynasty. They could not even reach the vicinity of Heluo, let alone Heqiao further north. As for coming to rescue, they did not lead their troops to come immediately, but
I rushed over after being confirmed by Li Yisun. As soon as I got here, I was able to share the results of the battle. I felt a little embarrassed.
Li Tai didn't care about these details. After hearing the words, he just said: "The traitor is still fierce and stubborn, and it is far from the result of a few battles. If you lack strength now, you can still make up for it in the future. The bow and knife are in hand, and the willpower is there."
Huai, why should a strong man in this world suffer from ineffectiveness?"
There are nearly ten thousand people from all walks of life in western Henan who came to help. When they first arrived, it was inevitable that their military appearance was somewhat disheveled and their ambitions were scattered. They did not look like elite armed forces.
However, as the ordnance and supplies were distributed to the camps in Heyang Nancheng, the demeanor of these troops suddenly changed greatly, as sharp as the swords and guns they had just fired.
While Li Tai was having friendly interactions with these volunteers from western Henan, Zhao Gui, Yu Wenhu and others also arrived near Luoyang City.
Today's Luoyang City is no longer as prosperous as it was in the past. There are some temporary campsites scattered among the ruins, giving it a desolate and desolate scene.
After arriving here, Zhao Gui ordered the accompanying soldiers to temporarily stay at the clearing camp and wait for the arrival of reinforcements from Kansai. He had no immediate plans to go to Heqiao to join Li Tai's troops.
However, Yu Wenhu was concerned about the latest changes in the situation at Heqiao. After reporting to Zhao Gui, he led more than a hundred soldiers straight to Heqiao in the north.
Li Taiben was inspecting the camp outside the city. After learning the news, he rode back to the city. From a distance, he saw Yuwenhu circling the river bridge and looking around. So he stepped forward and asked loudly: "When will Brother Sabao come here?"
"
After Yu Wenhu heard this, he looked back at Li Tai and said with a half-serious smile: "Boshan, you didn't expect it, did you? I also have a plan to enter Heyang, how can I let you, Boshan, take advantage of everyone's wisdom?"
But it’s more beautiful than before! So after I heard that you had implemented this plan, I traveled day and night and went straight to the front line to fight side by side with you, to overcome this river defense together, and to advance north to defeat the thieves!"
Look at this guy's eyes flashing, and the word "grabbing credit" almost came out of his eyes. Li Tai was very happy for a while, and stepped forward to invite Yu Wenhu to go back to the city for a detailed discussion.
Yu Wenhu was full of lofty ideals at this time and did not want to sit in the city. After walking around the river embankment to observe the defenses, he immediately proposed to inspect Zhongli City in Hezhongzhou, fearing that there would be some defenses.
There are loopholes that the enemy can take advantage of.
After Li Tai heard this, his face suddenly darkened. I am squatting here in Heyang City. It is all thanks to you, Yuwen Sabao, to supervise from the air to ensure that the city is not lost?
He casually assigned a soldier commander to lead Yuwen Hu to Hezhou, while he rode directly back to Heyang Nancheng. This guy was clearly here to grab credit, and the atmosphere between them did not need to be too harmonious, otherwise it would be later
When I asked how to capture the city of Zhongli, it was hard to ignore it.
At this moment, Yu Wenhu just wanted to understand the offensive and defensive situation here in detail, so that he could have a reference and judgment for the further development of the war. He had a strong sense of responsibility in his heart, and naturally he did not feel that his move was a bit overstepping and lacked emotional intelligence.
Therefore, he ignored Li Tai, who left directly, and led his entourage to the north along the river bridge under the guidance of the soldier commander.
It was not until dark in the evening that Yu Wenhu finished his inspection and came to the south city of Heyang. After seeing Li Tai, he said with emotion: "The river bridge is really majestic, one water divides it into two parts, and it is cut off in three places.
risk……"
Listening to Yu Wenhu's endless lament about the topography of the north and south of the river bridge, Li Tai suddenly felt something in his heart, and immediately asked: "Brother Sabao, is this the first time you have passed by the river bridge?"
After Yu Wenhu heard this, his expression became a little shy, and he laughed twice and said: "I used to go straight from Jinyang to Pingliang, but later Guandong was occupied by thieves. Although several large armies fought against Heluo, they were all unable to reach it.
Arriving at the Heqiao..."
This guy really doesn't understand the fighting environment between the north and south of Heqiao, but he is very courageous and dares to send it away.
Li Tai made a few remarks in his heart, and then asked about Bafu's follow-up arrangements for the situation at Heqiao. When he heard that 20,000 reinforcements from the rear were already on the way, he couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, sighing that Yu Wentai really did
I can't stand the temptation.
"The three cities of Heyang are closely connected and rely on each other. Some commentators only say that they are integrated, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and they are timid before fighting. However, whether they are true or not is not scrutinized. If it weren't for your bravery in Boshan this time, the country would
I was afraid but I didn’t know that the East Thieves River Defense was so weak, and the Three Cities were able to win two of them with their hands down!"
Speaking of Li Tai's current results, Yu Wenhu couldn't help but sigh.
Just now, while inspecting the Heqiao city defense, he also learned about Li Tai's process of capturing the second city. Nancheng was obtained by fraud. Although Zhongli City experienced a battle, it only took half of the night. It can be seen that Li Tai can
To capture two cities, the first was boldness, the second was luck.
In the final analysis, the most important thing is planning before the war.
Yu Wenhu was one of the first people in the country to propose taking advantage of this opportunity to attack Heyang. He was able to take the lead in finding and judging the enemy's river defense weaknesses from the complex situation between the enemy and ourselves, and formulated a series of strategies to control the river defense at close range and attack Ye from afar.
The strategic wisdom contained in the city's battle plan is naturally the most important in Yu Wenhu's opinion.
However, after learning about Li Tai's military exploits, Yu Wenhu was no longer jealous. The easier it was for him to obtain the merits, the more correct his inference was, and he had clearly informed him of the correct answer before the battle.
Everyone and the generals still just stared at Henan. Only Li Tai had the courage to practice it. Who could blame him for taking this advantage?
However, everything ends here. Li Tai was willing to believe in his pre-war analysis and conception, and thus succeeded in conquering the second city of Heyang. This was his luck. But now that he is on the front line, what about the latter part?
Of course, strategic plans are most secure only if they are implemented by yourself.
Yu Wenhu thought so in his heart, and looked at Li Tai thoughtfully. He hoped that Li Tai would know when to stop and take the initiative to hand over the command of the subsequent operations. After a brief pause, he said: "The people in the north of Zhongli City
The bridge section of the river is seriously damaged and it is difficult to pass through. There are not many boats left near the river island. This seems to be some hindrance to the implementation of the plan? What does Boshan think about this? "
After Li Tai heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked: "What is the plan that Brother Sabao said?"
"This...now that we have secured two of the three cities, there is no reason to stand still. How will we capture Beizhong City next? Bo Shan, you have no predictions?"
Yu Wenhu frowned again and said, he has made a complete plan to capture the three cities of Heyang and even further targets. Combining water and land is the key to capturing Beicheng, and it is also the most important link. If Li Tai understood him seriously
This strategic concept cannot be ignored.
When Li Tai heard this, he sighed and said: "My troops are only a few thousand in number. It is a luck to be able to capture the middle city and defend it so far. If there are no subsequent reinforcements, I will not be able to make it, and I will not dare to make any further progress."
At the moment, I just hope that the reinforcements will arrive quickly. There is really no concrete plan to discuss with Brother Sabao."
Hearing that Li Tai was unwilling to discuss the specific battle plan with him, Yu Wenhu's eyes flashed with a hint of displeasure, but he also understood that few people would be willing to share such extraordinary achievements with others, so Li Tai was defensive.
This is also human nature.
Yu Wenhu didn't want to make the relationship with Li Tai too tense for the time being, so he changed the subject as soon as he turned his eyes, pointed at Li Zhongju who was standing next to him and asked with a smile: "Who is this young man? He looks a little unfamiliar, but he is very familiar with it.
Boshan, you look somewhat similar."
"I haven't had time to introduce him to Brother Sa Bao, so I'm doing this at the expense of my brother."
After hearing this, Li Tai smiled and said, signaling his second brother Li Chao to come forward and greet Yu Wenhu.
After hearing this, Yu Wenhu's expression suddenly became strange again: "I remember that Boshan, your family seems to be stranded in Hebei. This young man is your biological brother? How come he is here?"
Li Tai naturally made no secret about this, and even told the story about Chen Yuankang and his entourage. After hearing this, Yu Wenhu frowned immediately, looked at Li Tai thoughtfully, and then
After a while, he left Heyang Nancheng and returned directly to Luoyang without staying for a meal.
The symptoms are much milder. Updates will resume tomorrow. Everyone, prevent the epidemic and heatstroke, and have a happy life...
