Eight hundred and ninetieth chapters attack Luoyang
The princes of Guanzhong, who are you looking for?
Everyone was somewhat in a dilemma for a while. After all, no one knew the princes of Guanzhong very well. At this moment, who should we choose?
This first person who needs to be contacted is very important. For everyone, this person can be said to be an important breakthrough. If the person is not selected properly, it is very likely that the intentions of the Jinling Army will be completely exposed to the other party.
It's quite disturbing.
Everyone had no clue about this matter and didn't know which prince of Guanzhong to look for. In the end, the pottery merchant tentatively asked everyone: "What do you think of Han Sui?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and began to consider in their hearts.
When I was young, I heard Chen Deng say: "Han Sui is really a capricious villain. The late emperor also lost Chang'an because of him. Although he can be used to recruit him. However, this man has a vicious heart and was a thief in the past.
He has repeatedly committed crimes, so if we want to subdue him, I'm afraid it won't be easy."
The potter nodded and said: "This is absolutely correct, so we can just give it a try, but we can't put all the blame on Han Sui."
When he said this, the pottery merchant looked at everyone and said, "Where are Han Sui and other princes now?"
Guo Jia said: "They should all be in Luoyang City."
Tao Shang thought for a while: "If he is in Luoyang City, we can't contact him for the time being. We still have to lead his troops to fight quickly and capture Luoyang first."
…
"Attack Luoyang by force and take down the city. Then it's not too late to make plans after the city is taken down by force."
It was at this time that the soldiers and horses of various Guanzhong princes returned to Luoyang one after another.
After the failure of this sneak attack on the pottery camp, many Guanzhong princes showed obvious dissatisfaction. They all went to find Zhong Yao and asked him to give an explanation.
After all, for the princes of Guanzhong, this loss was indeed too great.
Zhong Yao seemed to have been prepared for this matter. He shook his head helplessly and said: "I didn't expect that the pottery merchants were so smart. We attacked the enemy camp at night, but we couldn't stop them! In this night attack, we fell behind.
Take it."
Ma Wan said to Zhong Yao: "Having said that, our attack on the enemy this time has caused a lot of losses, and we still followed Dr. Zhong's words. Shouldn't this responsibility fall on Mr. Zhong?"
some?"
As soon as these words were said, everyone present was talking to each other. They all expressed the hope that Cao Jun, led by Zhong Yao, could take the responsibility for this incident.
Cao Zhang was very annoyed when he heard what they said. He raised his eyebrows slightly, stepped forward and was about to speak angrily, but Zhong Yao blocked him with his hand.
Zhong Yao looked at everyone with a smile and said: "This is indeed my mistake. Let's see. There are still a lot of fine armors and weapons in Luoyang's arsenal, so I took them out and distributed them to all the princes.
How about a little apology for your losses?"
As soon as this was said, everyone's eyes suddenly lit up.
Luoyang's arsenal has been well-stocked in recent years. For everyone present, it can be said to be a greedy piece of cake. Now that Zhong Yao throws it out, the princes in Guanzhong will naturally drool.
But Cheng Yin said with a smile: "Why is this so embarrassing?"
Zhong Yao smiled and said: "There is nothing to be embarrassed about. After all, it was my suggestion that caused losses to everyone. If you want to defeat the pottery merchant, we have to work together. Please go back and fight the enemy bravely. Don't refuse!"
After a pause, Zhong Yao continued: "As the saying goes, two parties benefit from cooperation, and two parties suffer from division."
Everyone nodded in unison and said: "That's exactly it, that's exactly it."
Zhong Yao talked to everyone for a while, and then ordered them to go to the arsenal to get the weapons under the guard of his own soldiers.
After the princes of Guanzhong left with the guard, Cao Zhang asked Zhong Yao angrily: "Why should you give weapons to these people?"
Zhong Yao just smiled faintly: "It doesn't matter, what's the point of a trivial matter? It's something that can't be moved. It might as well be distributed to them. If it can arouse their enthusiasm to fight against the pottery merchants, that would be good."
Cao Zhang frowned: "Doctor Zhong, what do you mean?"
Zhong Yao said with a smile: "After the military attache fell, the city of Luoyang was difficult to defend. In my opinion, using Cheng Guo of Luoyang and the soldiers and horses of the Guanzhong princes, we can indeed kill the pottery merchants."
There are many soldiers and horses, and if the weapons from the arsenal are distributed, the princes in Guanzhong will feel somewhat guilty. If so, wouldn't this be a great good thing?"
Cao Zhang looked at Zhong Yao in surprise, having no idea why he would say such unreasonable things.
"Brother, listen to what he said, it's just..."
Unexpectedly, Cao Ang said from the side: "What Doctor Zhong said is very reasonable. In this case, let the princes in Guanzhong take weapons and go to the city to help defend it."
Cao Zhang: "..."
…
Two days later, the potter's army arrived at Luoyang City. Under his command, all the soldiers began to attack the city.
The last time I came to Luoyang City, Luoyang City was turned into a sea of fire by Dong Zhuo. Now that I'm here again, the entire city has completely changed.
What was once a ruins has now turned into a tall and majestic Chengguo, which surprised the pottery merchant.
He stared at the city in the distance quietly, and then suddenly sighed: "Zhong Yao is indeed a talent. It is really not easy to think that the ruins back then can still remain so majestic after all these years of repairs."
When he said this, he saw that Xu Chu could no longer bear it. He cupped his hands in front of the pottery merchant and said, "Prime Minister, at this moment, we don't have to wait any longer. We'd better hurry up and attack the city!"
The pottery merchant looked at him with a smile: "You are confident that you can conquer such a tall and majestic city."
Now that they have arrived in Luoyang, everyone's mentality is naturally very different from usual. If they can capture Luoyang, it will be a substantial change for the entire Jinling Army.
The pottery merchant thought for a long time, then nodded and said: "Okay, let's just go with your enthusiasm. Then I can't stop you. Who wants to lead the troops to attack the city as a vanguard!"
For a time, all the generals stood up and responded.
But Gao Lan, Xu Chu, Qu Yi, Huang Zhong, Gao Shun, A Fei and others all competed for the lead.
The pottery merchant was not polite, and gently drew a circle with his hand and said: "In that case, then you can lead your troops from each city gate. If possible, take Weng City as quickly as possible, and let me take a look at you."
The general’s strength…”
Speaking of this, Tao Shang paused and said, "I will leave it to the generals to recover the old capital of the Han Dynasty."
