The setting sun is like fire, and a gentle breeze blows along the Wei River.
Looking at the majestic Chencang City from a distance, it is hard to tell whether it is the setting sun or the blood staining the city walls red.
The sounds of fighting, shouts, and drums and horns that filled this place not long ago have all disappeared, leaving only corpses, broken knives, broken spears, and dusty flags, telling the story of the devastation.
As the northern city wall was occupied by the Han army, the outer city of Chencang changed hands.
After learning the news, Guo Huai, who was guarding the west city wall, immediately ordered his soldiers to retreat to the inner city and defend the inner city in order to prevent the Han army from seizing the inner city first and to avoid being attacked by the Han army from the side.
But when the Han army in the west of the city was also in a hurry to attack the enemy, how could they allow the Wei soldiers to leave smoothly?
As a last resort, Guo Huai let his tribe stay behind before successfully escaping.
There are only a few soldiers who have returned to the inner city, less than 2,000!
Because there were six hundred soldiers on each of the south and east walls guarding the city wall, he had no time to send anyone to inform them.
But it doesn't matter anymore.
Calculating the time, even if he informed him, the two Wei troops would have no chance to retreat to the inner city.
Guan Xing, the governor of the western city wall, saw the Wei army retreating and led the army in hot pursuit.
Although he knew that Guo Huai would not give the Han army the opportunity to follow up and sweep into the inner city, but this move was to prevent the Wei army from packing up its baggage.
Defend by the city wall~
In order to obtain them nearby, many supplies and baggage were piled in the outer city instead of hoarding them in the inner city. Just letting the soldiers carry them was time-consuming and delayed the military aircraft.
With the same purpose, Liao Huabu and Fu Qianbu were also sent by Wu Ban.
When Fu Qian and Guan Xing, who were covered in blood, met outside the inner city, they joked, relying on their familiarity from being in the palace when they were young, "Brother An Guo is late. General Liao and I have been waiting for a long time!"
"Shuzi asks for a beating! Hahaha~~"
Guan Xing laughed loudly, punched Fu Qian on the shoulder with his fist, and after greeting Liao Hua again, he sighed, "I thought that I could capture the west city wall in three days at most, but unexpectedly it was you who took the lead. What a joy."
!”
"This is the reason for Gongyuan's admonition."
Liao Hua, who was older and calmer, smiled and said, "Without the Prime Minister and An Guo's strong attack, Guo Huai transferred some of the guards on the north wall, and it would be difficult for us to achieve success."
"Alas!"
Guan Xing was surprised.
Immediately, he waved his hand to his generals to lead the soldiers to collect supplies and take precautions. Then he looked at Fu Qian with interest and said, "How could Gong Yuan do that! Tell me, what did Gong Yuan do to be able to do that?"
General Liao would not hesitate to praise Xie?"
"Haha~~"
Fu Qian smiled broadly, waved his hands and said modestly, "This is the result of General Chariot and Cavalry's coordination and the fighting of the soldiers. How can I dare to take credit? General Liao praised me because I was young and encouraged him. Brother Anguo, don't take it seriously."
"Am I a delusional person?"
Liao Hua, who was standing next to him, pretended to be scolded, and then, with the joy of breaking the city, he told Guan Xing the story in detail.
At first, when he heard that Fu Qian had suggested stealing the city from the south gate at night, Guan Xing smiled while stroking his beard; but when he heard that the stone was thrown by a trebuchet without distinguishing between ourselves and the enemy, Guan Xing couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
One sentence: Like a teacher, there must be a disciple.
And when Liao Hua mentioned why Wu Ban agreed, Fu Qian seemed to have remembered something.
He suddenly slapped his forehead, bowed and apologized to Liao Hua, and then interrupted their conversation, "Brother An Guo, I wonder if the Prime Minister can enter the city?"
"I don't know."
Guan Xing was a little confused, "However, the prime minister has been watching the battle on the Chao chariot. He should not have entered the city yet. Why does Gong Yuan ask this question?"...
"Sir, once upon a time, in places where corpses were piled up in fierce battles, diseases and plagues were common, and the weak and feeble were not allowed to approach."
Fu Qian said as he walked towards the west city gate, "I would also like to ask General Liao to restrain the soldiers in my headquarters on my behalf; Brother An Guo, I will go find the Prime Minister first."
"good."
"Okay, go quickly."
In response, both of them nodded.
When he saw Fu Qian's back disappearing around the corner, Guan Xing spoke up and said, "General Liao's men fought a bloody battle to seize the city wall. The soldiers must be very tired. If not the general supervises the headquarters and is on alert, I can take care of the rest in advance."
"If you are disrespectful, then you will have trouble with Anguo."
Liao Hua, who was indeed a little tired, accepted Guan Xing's kindness with a smile, and there was nothing left to control in the war.
The Han army will not continue to attack the inner city.
Because it's not necessary.
The more than a thousand remnants of the Wei army that retreated into the inner city, no matter how Guo Huai won the hearts of the people or how many generals he had, could not change the low morale after the city was broken.
There is no hope of recovery!
For the Han army, they only need to dig a trench outside the small inner city, set up watchtowers around it for constant surveillance, and put some archers on guard. Then they can treat it as a turtle in a urn and wait for the inner city to be destroyed.
Attacked and defeated!
West of Chencang City.
The prime minister, who was riding in a plain carriage and surrounded by soldiers, slowly came looking at the city gate.
There was joy on his face and a little pity in his eyes.
As the carriage gets closer to the city wall, the scene becomes more tragic.
After many days of fortification, the soil under the city wall has already turned reddish brown, making it impossible for the blood stains left at noon to penetrate; occasionally looking up, you will find some severed limbs hanging on the cracked crenellations, which have long been unrecognizable.
Which side did the soldiers come from?
He returned to the old capital and declared that the Han Dynasty's destiny was destined to be paved with blood and bones.
The only thing I can be thankful for is that we are about to reach the finish line.
"Prime Minister, please stay."
Fu Qian, who was running all the way, had just approached Su Yu. Without waiting for the Prime Minister to ask questions, Fu Qian saluted and panted, "Prime Minister, there are many corpses in the city now, and it is the scorching heat of midsummer. I am afraid that there is a hidden evil."
. If you are brave, please ask the Prime Minister to postpone for a day or two until the soldiers have cleared up before entering the city."
Is the evil secretly arising?
The Prime Minister raised his eyebrows slightly.
When he saw that Fu Qian's armor was stained with blood, he asked with concern, "Did Gongyuan himself risk a stone and attack the city today?"
"Back to Prime Minister, yes."
Fu Qian nodded and replied, "It's not just Qian. Today, except for the five old generals who supervise the formation, all the generals in the north of the city personally supervise their troops to ascend first, so they can seize the city in one go." After that, he remembered the purpose of coming here.
, and then added, "Mr. Qian is responsible for the frequent epidemics of epidemics in places where corpses are piled up. The Prime Minister is concerned about the safety of our army, so we must not be careless!"
Is it actually Zi Jin?
Hearing this, the Prime Minister suddenly smiled and said, "I don't believe in Gongyuan, so why should I talk about things with Zijin?"
When he saw that Fu Qian was still looking forward to it, he nodded lightly and said, "Forget it, the outer city has been destroyed. Chencang City is already in our army's pocket. If you don't enter, don't enter."
Afterwards, he sent someone to pass the order to give Guan Xing full authority to supervise the affairs of the city, and then changed his route to the north gate.
The fall of the outer city of Chencang could not have been hidden from Sima Yi, the governor of Wei Yongliang.
In other words, after the tactic of retreating and defending failed, he would immediately mobilize all his troops to the Lianshui Valley for a decisive battle with the Han army.
In this regard, the Prime Minister naturally has to go in person to make arrangements in advance._&
