The dignified Duke of Tang, who had high hopes for him, only delayed his rebellion for one day and one night. Specifically, it was less than one day. He couldn't wait for Wu Xinfang's arrival. He was only two to three thousand miles away!
Of course, in such a large-scale war, even with the participation of more than 30,000 elite troops from Wu Xin's side, it would be difficult to affect the overall situation and could only serve as a surprise or leading soldier.
Fengqiu is located at the junction of Dongjun and Xingyang counties.
With the strong mobility of Wu Xinfang's 80% cavalry, it only took two or three days to get from Fengqiu to Zhongmou.
Originally Wu Xinfang wanted to rush to join forces with Tang Guogong Li Yuan, but now that Li Yuan's army was defeated and fled, Wu Xinfang was suddenly embarrassed and confused, and was cheated!
Wu Xinfang moved all the way south and west, relying on strong maneuverability and easy-to-control elite troops to shuttle through the gaps between the rebels. Now that Li Yuan's army has retreated, Wu Xinfang has lost support and is in a dilemma, like a lone army trapped in a tiger's den.
Everyone in Wu Xinfang, including Dou, Li Zhan, Li Xiuning and other people from Li and Tang, gathered to study military maps and marching routes.
On the detailed military map, rural towns (middle cities), county towns (big cities), and county towns (giant cities) are dotted with signs.
Nowadays, the cities of Dongjun, Xingyang, Hanoi and other counties have been basically captured by the Xuangan rebels. Wu Xinfang will encounter obstacles everywhere no matter how he goes, and may be attacked at any time.
That is to say, Wu Xinfang was too powerful, and Xuangan's rebels were busy marching westward and were unable to divide their troops. The rebels in each city did not dare to come alone to snipe, otherwise they would have been besieged from all sides! However, Wu Xin definitely couldn't do it if he thought of supplying and resting in each city.
, can only attack the city.
"Let's take a detour! Avoid the county and county towns, and try to move westward. With our strength, these rebels dare not and cannot intercept us!"
After staring at the map carefully for a moment, Wu Xin drew a winding route and said.
As a result, Wu Xinfang naturally had to take many detours and spend several days before he could reach Henan County and Dongdu.
"Report to the lord! General Li Zixiong's envoy asks for an audience!" At this moment, a military guard came to report.
"pass!"
Wu Xin and others looked at each other in surprise and confusion, but decided to meet the envoy.
After a while, the envoy arrived. After some greetings, the envoy got straight to the point and conveyed:
"It is my lord's wish that I will lead the way and lend you the road to Henan County. I wonder what your generals wish?"
"Well"
Wu Xin, Li Zhan, Li Shimin and others were stunned for a while and were speechless.
Can the war still be fought like this?
Those who didn’t know better thought they were allies!
Although Wu Xin had just let go of Li Zixiong's son Li Min, he had taken over the rebels' most important logistics base and large granary. Coupled with Wei Gui's hatred, the two sides should have a deep hatred.
However, Li Zixiong’s meaning is easy to understand.
Wu Xinfang has more than 30,000 men, which is more or less. Nearly 30,000 are cavalry, which have strong maneuverability and stronger combat effectiveness, making it difficult to contain them.
More importantly, in this way, if the army is not ten times that of Wu Xinfang, he will lose more and win less. If he wants to encircle him, he will have to mobilize at least fifty or sixty times the army. The rebels will not be able to mobilize that many troops, and even more
Don't let Wu Xinfang affect the plans of the Eastern Capital.
Nowadays, the anti-army forces are not encircling them, let alone ignoring them. They have to waste a lot of troops deploying defenses everywhere to watch out for each other. It is like a bone stuck in the throat of the anti-army forces. It is better to be single. Send Wu Xinfang away and save both sides.
Headache.
"What does Shimin mean?"
Wu Xin was a little moved, but he thought it was a bit ridiculous, so he couldn't help but look to Li Shimin for advice.
The battle in the Eastern Capital is one of the general trends. If there is no accident, Xuan Guan will be defeated. This is a great contribution made by Bai Ji. Naturally, Wu Xin wants to catch up in time and get a share, and he can also take the opportunity to meet the heroes and geniuses from all sides.
Li Shimin smiled bitterly. He shook his head and replied: "It's not advisable! My lord's plan and intentions are understood by my subordinates, but I can't use this method! Although our contribution is recognized by the whole world, we are not afraid of ten thousand, just in case.
, and even more afraid of rumors.”
After a pause, he cautiously reminded: "My lord is the true successor of the Demon Sect and is easily criticized. If I borrow the path this time, who knows what the world and the Holy One will think? It's better to rely on one's own efforts, and there are also side effects. As long as it works well,
It’s more than a positive achievement, at least there won’t be the unpredictable crisis of being criticized and impeached!”
"Understood!"
Wu Xin sighed secretly, looked at the envoy and said, "Please! If I want to go there, I will fight on my own, so there is no need to use the way!"
The messenger did not dare to say more, let alone use his eloquent tongue, and left quickly.
This is the impact of killing Yang Su, the king of Yue.
Today's Kuanghou Wuyao, should be said that Wu Guogong Wuyao. Although his power is still small, he has become powerful in the world. He only led more than 30,000 people and defeated the rebels with millions of troops on both sides of the Mother River.
I had no choice but to endure and give way, which was ridiculous!
It is conceivable that if this matter spreads out, the prestige of Wu Guogong Wuxin will rise to a new level and people will talk about it!
If it were another Sui general, not to mention more than 30,000, it would be 50,000 or 100,000. It is estimated that Li Zixiong would immediately lead an army to encircle and suppress him. How could he send an envoy to negotiate?!
The next day, Wu Xinfang continued to move westward according to the negotiated route.
Go northwest from Fengqiu and enter Xingyang County. Pass between Suanzao and Yangwu, follow Yuanyang, Yuanwu, Xingze and other places, that is, along the mother river north bank, and rush to Sishui, which is Dongdu, through curves
The gateway to Hulao Pass.
Official road in the northeast of Yangwu County.
With iron hooves like thunder, nearly 30,000 cavalry and 3,000 to 4,000 Li and Tang elite soldiers galloped on the vast and flat official road.
"I'm informing you, sirs, that there are rebels targeting us, numbering about one hundred thousand, and they are suspected to be from Fengqiu!"
While the army was marching, an Eagle Guard came to report.
"Huh? One hundred thousand Fengqiu rebelled against the army?" Li Zhan asked doubtfully.
What kind of combat capability do the rebels have? How dare one hundred thousand rebels attack Wu Xinfang? Are you impatient?
"Explore again!" Wu Xin ordered, frowning in thought.
Li Zixiong, who is in charge of the rear and is in charge of the rebel rear, is also a famous general after all, and should be aware of the most important purpose of Xuangan's rebellion.
Do you really know how to divide your troops to snipe them? Or do you want to sacrifice part of the rebel army to hold back Wu Xinfang? Or are you just supervising?
I can’t figure it out!
Not long after, Wu Xin received various intelligences one after another. There were signs of military mobilization from the rebels in Yuanyang, Yuanwu, Yangwu, Kaifeng, Daliang and other major cities.
These big cities are just larger in scale, and there are also various mid-sized cities, small cities and other rebel armies, which are more or less mobilized, and the momentum is like the restless beasts, which is confusing.
However, talented people are bold.
Wu Xinfang relied on his strong combat power, fast maneuverability, and heightened vigilance, but he did not change his strategy and continued to march along the route.
The sun sets in the west.
At the three-way intersection leading to Yangwu and Yuanyang, Wu Xinfang naturally took the northwest direction leading to Yuanyang.
Not long after, we received the Fengqiu rebels who had been following them, heading southwest of Yangwu.
"My Majesty! Li Zixiong is mobilizing troops from all sides, not to encircle and suppress us, but to shrink the defense line, gather troops, guard against attacks from behind, and reinforce the battlefield ahead!"
Li Shimin held the map and pondered for a moment, then looked at Wu Xin with strange eyes and reminded him.
Everyone was confused, and Wei Peng couldn't help but ask: "Shrink the defense line and gather the army?"
"Everyone, look carefully at the map. Now, the rebels in the cities of Dongjun and Xingyang County are restless, and there is quite a tendency to form a siege. If you look carefully, you can see that they are not trying to besiege, but are gathering at Xingyang County to intimidate Henan County and Surabaya!"
Li Shimin pointed at the map and explained the various routes.
Previously, Wu Xinfang had just left Fengqiu and was on the central line of Xingyang County, so he had the illusion of being surrounded from all sides. Now he has entered the north of Xingyang County. According to the intelligence, he has gradually jumped out of the encirclement!
If the predictions were correct, Li Zixiong had no intention of mobilizing the power of a hundred cities to surround Wu Xinfang. It was just a normal military maneuver.
This was the strategy adopted by Li Zixiong after Wu Xin refused to take advantage of the road.
Gather your strength to avoid being messed up by Wu Xinfang, and you can also support the front line, and you can achieve many things with one stone!
"Is it necessary?" Li Zhan looked at his nephew Li Shimin suspiciously and asked.
"It's necessary! Since we don't use the road, the rebels must be careful to prevent our troops from attacking the cities. More importantly, the rebels cannot operate the logistics system smoothly! In this case, it is better to directly integrate the army and logistics
Materials are gathered directly.”
Li Shimin responded with a confident tone, paused, looked to the west and continued: "As expected, there may be a problem on the anti-military front line! The most likely problem is logistics! Without the continuous support of Liyangcang logistics, the anti-military army will
The army is beginning to be exhausted and we need to take more action to occupy a favorable location as soon as possible and capture the Eastern Capital as soon as possible!"
Everyone was silent, trying to figure out what Li Shimin meant. It was a bit confusing!
"To put it simply, the rats on our side who are hiding in the rebels' homes must be rat demons. The rebels can't catch or kill them, and they are afraid that we will eat up all the food in the house and take away it, so we gather them together first!"
Wen Renzhong's eyes lit up, he explained with a vulgar metaphor, and then continued: "Now the rebel army's home is too big, there are not enough people, and there is not enough food. So we can only give up some territory, concentrate the people and food, and do big things
!No matter how strong the rat demon is, it is still a rat demon. It cannot be ignored, but there is no need to pay too much attention to it."
After a pause, his eyes were hot, and he continued quite proudly: "Ambush the 300,000 logistics army led by King Yang Su of Yue, destroy the entire army, and kill the King of Yue; within three days, capture Liyangcang, which was guarded by more than a million rebels, and seize the current position.
The largest rebel logistics base has been awarded the title of Lord Wu. This is our prestige!"
If everyone is enlightened, as the new "Wu Guogong" spreads, the reason for Wu Xingong's appointment will also spread widely, and it is indeed as Wenren Zhong said.
For many things, people in the world only know the results but not the process. It is passed down by word of mouth and is easy to exaggerate and distort. If something doesn’t make sense, just make up for it on your own!
After all, there are only a few people in the world who know the choices of Sui Xian, Lotus Shadow Guard and Li Min. Most people only know the heroic deeds of Wu Xin's "Young Duke"!
"Then ignore the rebels and speed up the march! I'm afraid I won't be able to hold Sishui Pass for long. We must arrive as soon as possible, otherwise we will be blocked from the pass!"
Wu Xin frowned and looked to the west, seeming to see the majestic pass standing in the sky, and gave the order with concern.
Previously, Wu Xinfang was always vigilant because he was wary of rebel sieges, and his march was much slower.
