This should be reinforcements sent by the enemy, and most likely they are just the vanguard of the reinforcements. It is not known how many people are behind and where they appear from.
"Li Shizhong fought well in Langzhong, now it's our turn." Xiao Mohe said immediately.
Chun Yuliang frowned slightly: "The enemy came very quickly. It is important to be cautious in this battle. We cannot afford to lose."
"But at least we can still fight." Xiao Mohe said firmly, turned around and walked outside, "Chen Yu, beat the drum and gather the generals!"
Chun Yuliang looked at Xiao Mohe's back, feeling a little confused for a moment.
Perhaps it's because I'm really old, but the fighting spirit displayed by these young people actually gives me an unfamiliar feeling.
I wonder if Wu Mingche, who is presiding over the war in Huaibei, has similar thoughts. At least Chun Yuliang knows that the brilliant performance of young generals such as Li Xingchen in the Battle of Bashu undoubtedly proves that the younger generation of Nanchen has begun to grow up, and even some
The ability to go out and be on your own.
It's just that... Chun Yuliang frowned slightly. It's just that Li Xingchen's hard work and growth seemed to have nothing to do with Nan Chen. Even in the battles that took place throughout Bashu, Nan Chen was only nominally involved. In fact,
This is the battle between Li Xingchen and the Northern Zhou Dynasty.
Now Li Xinchen has become more and more powerful. Chun Yuliang wonders if Li Xinchen will continue to be so strong, whether he will take orders from Nan Chen in the future.
The sound of "dong dong" drums was heard from outside. Chun Yuliang woke up suddenly. He couldn't help but shook his head slightly and laughed at himself: "We are all half buried in the earth. No matter what we do, we might as well fight first."
This battle in front of me. As for Li Xingchen... that is not a lawsuit that I should worry about."
——————————————————
Xiao Shilian was lying on the bed, holding a military book in his hand, and he didn't know if he had read it. Then Li Xingchen strode in and couldn't help laughing when he saw him looking like he was about to fall asleep.
Glancing sideways at Li Xingchen, Xiao Shilian couldn't help but snorted: "What's so funny? The pain has been so painful these past few days that I couldn't sleep even if I wanted to. Now I finally feel a little sleepy, but you woke me up."
During the battle with the Sun Family, Xiao Shilian suffered various wounds of various sizes, some of which were even deep to the bone. If the personal guards who followed Xiao Shilian had not stopped the bleeding in time, the blood alone would have been enough for Xiao Shilian to drink a pot.
Even so, when Xiao Shilian returned to the city, he had a high fever for two days due to wound infection. Li Xingchen called in all the doctors he could find in the city, and it took a long time before Xiao Shilian's fever was relieved. In this era of lack of medical means, sometimes fever
It will kill people.
After all, Xiao Shilian has been on the battlefield for a long time, and he has not missed any training on weekdays, so his physical fitness should be considered good for this era.
"Is Yuchijiong really hiding in Micang Mountain and not coming out?" Xiao Shilian asked directly without waiting for Li Xingchen to speak first. In order to prevent Xiao Shilian from getting excited after seeing the battle report, Li Xingchen has not told him the news from the outside world these days, so
Xiao Shilian could only hope that Li Xingchen would bring him some news.
"Someone from the Sun family no longer defends." Li Xingchen said lightly, "Now Panlong County and Tiangongyuan Mountain are under our control, so Yuchi Jiong wants to retreat into Micang Mountain or attack Panlong County.
It's all up to him. But what I'm most worried about now is Chaotianmen."
"Chaotianmen?" The name was not very familiar, and Xiao Shilian was startled.
"When you enter Langzhong from Jiange Road, you have to pass through Chaotianmen," Li Xingchen said after careful consideration. Obviously this matter made him hesitate, "So if Wei Xiaokuan wants to support Langzhong, he will definitely transfer his troops and pass through Chaotianmen. And Yuchi Jiong cannot not understand.
This principle..."
Xiao Shilian was startled, and he obviously remembered where Li Xingchen was talking about, and sat up immediately: "Chaotianmen, this is a must-win place. If Wei Xiaokuan is allowed to enter Langzhong, then Yuchi Jiong will have the confidence to attack the city!
"
Now Yuchi Jiong retreats into Micang Mountain. The main reason is that Yuchi Jiong braved the wind and snow to cross Micang Mountain with light troops. He did not carry much siege equipment at all, and only relied on a simple ladder to attack Panlong County City.
, nothing less than whimsical.
It is impossible for Yuchi Jiong not to remember that Li Xingchen defended Zhangshan County City. Now Li Xingchen has more soldiers and horses under his command, and Panlong County City is stronger than Zhangshan County City, which has been in disrepair for a long time. It is not easy to attack.
So easy. The reason why Li Xingchen stayed in Tiangongyuan for a day was to wait for the large siege equipment that would be delivered later.
After all, equipment such as trebuchets and crossbows are delivered as parts and must be assembled before they can be used in actual combat.
"I have already asked Cao Zhong and Li Xun to rush over with more than a thousand people." Li Xingchen said in a deep voice, "But I don't believe that Yuchijiong will ignore this place, so he is likely to send more troops to Chaotianmen.
"
In the final analysis, it is still a problem of insufficient troops. If Li Xingchen had six or seven thousand soldiers and horses, he would dare to block Sunjiamen and seize Chaotianmen at the same time, but he does not have it now. If he continues to defend on the small hill of Sunjiamen, he will only
It is possible that Li Xingchen's few remaining troops could also be put in.
After all, there are only three thousand soldiers and horses available to Li Xingchen now, including the soldiers who later took refuge, so he must be careful with his calculations.
Xiao Shilian frowned tightly: "In this case, it will be difficult for Chaotianmen to gain the upper hand..."
"We can only find other strategies," Li Xingchen responded, "I also told Cao Zhong and the others that if nothing can be done, there is no need to attack by force. After all, the enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered. It is not so easy to fight for these strategic points."
"Find another strategy..." Xiao Shilian considered these four words, "Do you want to use Shu County to bet that Wei Xiaokuan will not attack Langzhong?"
Xiao Shilian also knew that Li Xinchen's confidence lay in the fact that the two armies of Pei Zilie and Chen Zhishen were still capable of fighting and threatened the safety of Shu County from two directions. This could be said to be Li Xinchen's last trump card.
However, the city of Shu County is high and deep. It has been the core city of Bashu for hundreds of years. If Pei Zilie and Chen Zhishen want to attack, they will not be able to capture it in a short time. Therefore, Wei Xiaokuan can completely abandon Shu County and come here.
In order to support Yuchi Jiong, Li Xingchen would still have to face a two-pronged attack in the end.
"No, I want to bet that Wei Xiaokuan will not support Shu County." Li Xingchen said lightly, "With the Chaotian Gate open, Wei Xiaokuan can easily lead troops into Langzhong. I want to see if Wei Xiaokuan has the courage to come."
"But..." Xiao Shilian roughly understood what Li Xingchen meant and couldn't help but frown, "Isn't this too risky?"
Facing a desperate situation, Li Xingchen was simply risking his death. Perhaps before Pei Zilie could rush to the gate of Shu County, Wei Xiaokuan and Yuchi Jiong crushed Li Xingchen.
