In fact, it is difficult to make such a large-scale deployment of troops to Luoyang without leaks. Zhang Yun in the south led an army of 50,000 to set off one day in advance. Something went wrong. Their army went north, but was discovered by Yingyang County. The county magistrate hurriedly sent people on horseback to rush there.
Luoyang Report.
The messenger arrived in Luoyang on the afternoon of the 28th and reported the news to the defenders at the south gate that there was a large army heading north. The soldiers immediately reported to the defender, but the general on duty was gathering people to gamble, and he lost his mind and lost.
I forgot about this matter.
After gambling, the generals ordered more food and drinks. The general guarding the southern city got very drunk. It was not until the alarm bell on the city wall rang in the middle of the night that the general on duty was awakened by the soldiers and learned that Bao Tao's army was attacked by the Jin army. Only then did he remember the day.
things.
He knew that he had committed a serious crime and that once the superiors found out, he would definitely die, so he made an excuse to go out of the city to check the situation, and escaped from the city overnight.
This is also accidental and inevitable. The morale of the army is low, the generals are careless and just goofing around. No one takes the military situation seriously. If you do something seriously, you will be laughed at. The occurrence of such major military information loopholes is also an inevitable phenomenon after the morale is extremely low.
There are 50,000 tiger guards and 30,000 oxen guards stationed in Luoyang City, as well as 10,000 palace guards. The qianniu guards are responsible for guarding the city and maintaining order in the city.
At the fourth watch, Qianniuwei General Xiang Fei was also awakened by the sound of alarm bells on the top of the city. He hurriedly put on his clothes and rushed to the west city. At this time, a large number of defenders had already entered the city. The soldiers were very nervous and ready to prepare.
The army also went to Beicheng.
Xiang Fei faintly heard the shouts of killing in the distance, which were the shouts of Bao Tao Weinan's six thousand troops when they were surrounded by Zhang Yun's army.
"General, I'm afraid the Jin army has launched a massive attack!" a general whispered.
Xiang Fei's face was ugly. In fact, they all knew that this day would come sooner or later, but they all deceived themselves and never thought about it, and they were not allowed to mention it to others. But now that it has really happened, Xiang Fei has a kind of building.
A sense of impending crisis.
"You guys guard the city, I'll go into the palace and report!"
Xiang Fei hurried down the city, but instead of entering the palace, he rushed back to his mansion with more than twenty soldiers.
He ordered his soldiers to dig up a vegetable patch in the backyard, and moved two rockeries to reveal a stone door. When he opened the stone door, there was a dark iron door inside, which was the entrance to his basement.
Opening the iron door, there was a large underground palace below. Xiang Fei ordered his soldiers to move boxes of old money totaling 200,000 guan into the underground palace. He still had millions of new money that he had not had time to exchange. He originally wanted to exchange it.
After that, we'll move in together.
But now it was too late. Hundreds of large boxes and dozens of sacks of money were moved into the underground palace. The iron and stone gates were closed. The soldiers reset the rockery, filled it back with soil, and replanted the green and yellow wheat.
, everything is restored to its original state.
This is only part of his wealth. He also has a large amount of gold, silver and various jewelry that were taken away by his wife and two sons in advance and hidden.
After everything was arranged, it was already dawn. At this time, the leader of the spies came to report, "General, we went to explore outside the city and met a Leopard Tao Guard soldier. According to him, Leopard Tao Guards
Tao Wei's entire army has been destroyed. The leader, General Wang Zhongmou, was killed, and the deputy general, Wang Shang, was also killed. There are Jin troops from four directions, with a total strength of about 200,000."
"Two hundred thousand!"
Xiang Fei's legs felt weak and he quickly asked: "Are you sure the strength of the troops is correct?"
"We have gathered information from more than a dozen spies. There should be no mistakes. However, they are all camping and there seems to be no sign of attacking Luoyang City."
Xiang Fei heard that he would not attack Luoyang City for the time being. He was slightly relieved. At this time, the housekeeper ran up and said: "Master, Liu Xiangguo is here!"
Xiang Fei nodded. He arrived just in time. He originally wanted to ask the housekeeper to invite Liu Feng in, but then he changed his mind. He also wanted to go to the city, so why not go to the top of the city to see the situation together.
Liu Feng didn't know until dawn that there was a fierce battle outside the city. He hurriedly ran to find Xiang Fei. He waited outside the mansion for a while and saw Xiang Fei hurriedly walking out.
"Brother-in-law, how is the situation?" Liu Feng stepped forward and asked.
"From the current point of view, the Jin army seems to have no signs of attacking the city, but it is not certain."
Xiang Fei walked down the steps, stopped again and said to Liu Feng: "Bao Tao Guard has been completely destroyed, and Wang Zhongmou is also dead."
Liu Feng showed no emotion. Whether others died or not had nothing to do with him. He only cared about himself now.
"Do we... still... still have a chance to survive?" Liu Feng swallowed and asked in a trembling voice.
Xiang Fei glanced at Liu Feng contemptuously. He found that Liu Feng's legs were already trembling. Why would he be the prime minister if he was so afraid of death?
Xiang Fei was not as cowardly as Liu Feng. He snorted and said, "I don't know. Maybe when the city was broken, we had a chance to escape in the chaos and there was still a glimmer of hope for survival. Maybe King Jin didn't want to kill us and put us to death."
You can survive in exile, in short, it depends on your luck!"
Of course Liu Feng knew that he could not expect the King of Jin to spare him, just to see if he could escape during the chaos. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at the guard leader Wang Qing.
Xiang Fei also saw Wang Qing. Of course he knew about Liu Feng's establishment of an internal guard in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Liu Feng, a fool, actually asked the gangster Wang Qing to serve as his guard. He was afraid that he would be eaten to the bone.
However, when Xiang Fei really saw Wang Qing, he couldn't help but secretly cheer. This Wang Qing was extremely tall, but not a tiger with a heavy back. His whole body was muscular, like a leopard, and his whole body was full of explosive power.
Xiang Fei is also a soldier. He knows that this kind of person is extremely powerful in fighting. He is the kind of warrior who can kill dozens of people.
Although Xiang Fei instinctively felt that Wang Qing had a more upright temperament and was not like a gangster, he never dreamed that his wife's brother would actually find the leader of the Jin army's scouts to be his bodyguard.
"Your escort is very good, maybe there is a chance to escape!"
Xiang Fei said a word and got on the carriage. Liu Feng also hurriedly got on his carriage. Zhou Fei led the guards to closely protect the left and right side of Liu Feng's carriage.
...........
When Xiang Fei and Liu Feng arrived at the top of the city, a general came up to them and said, "General, we just received news that the Yingyang County magistrate sent someone to report yesterday afternoon that tens of thousands of troops were heading north."
Xiang Fei immediately said angrily: "Since someone came to report the news, why didn't you notify me?"
"General Qi, we found out that Hou Yuan, the guard of the South City Gate, made a mistake by gambling and forgot to report it to the superior. Hou Yuan knew that he was guilty of a serious crime and opened the city gate to escape before dawn."
"Son of a bitch!"
Xiang Fei was so angry that he shouted: "Catch all the people gambling with him and behead them!"
Xiang Fei didn't feel pity for the Bao Tao Guard army being destroyed. If he had received the news yesterday afternoon, he would have seized the opportunity to send a large amount of wealth out of the city, and he would not have to be so passive as now.
Xiang Fei climbed up to the top of the city and saw that there were large tents for several miles below the city. These were the tents of the Xin'an County camp of the Jin army that had been moved over. The Xiying camp was the first to set up camp. Soon, the tents of the enemy camp and the refugee camp also
It will be shipped.
The refugees in Luoyang have all been sent to Guanzhong. The remaining refugees are all people from various counties in Henan Prefecture. The Jin army will let them go home today without having to bear high taxes. In this way, the refugee camp will cost tens of thousands of tents and food supplies.
All supplies have been set aside to garrison troops here.
"What is going on?" Liu Feng couldn't understand the Jin army's intention.
A general next to him said: "Xiangguo, by setting up a camp, it means that they will not attack the city for the time being!"
At this time, a soldier reported, "General Xiao is here!"
I saw hundreds of guards walking towards Xiao Wanding. Although they had a dirty relationship, the common enemy was approaching the city, and they couldn't care less about fighting for power for the time being.
"Liu Xiangguo is here too. That's great. I'm about to send someone to invite Xiangguo!"
The soldiers arranged tables and chairs, and the three of them sat down on the top of the city. Xiao Wanding said nervously: "There are enemy troops from four directions now. Judging from this posture, they will not attack the city for the time being. Maybe they want to trap us. We
Let’s discuss how we should respond?”
Xiang Fei was silent for a moment and said, "I want to know how much food is left in the city?"
The two of them looked at Liu Feng together, and Liu Feng said after a while: "I have investigated and found that, excluding civilian food, including military rations and various miscellaneous grains, there are about 120,000 dan, and there is still some food in the private grain stores.
It can be requisitioned. Rich and powerful families also have grain reserves, and they can also be requisitioned. It is estimated that the total amount is about 200,000 dan."
"Only two hundred thousand stones!"
Xiang Fei's face looked a little ugly. They have an army of 90,000 people. How long can they last for 200,000 shi?
Xiao Wanding pondered for a while and said: "Since we are in the same boat, let's just gather all the food in the city! Ordinary people are rationed a little food every day, and then plant some beans in the open space, and they should be able to last for a long time."
The three people talked for a long time without mentioning surrender. They knew in their hearts that if they surrendered, others might survive, but they would definitely not survive. As for what would happen in the future, they did not consider it. They could hold on to the present and wait for changes.
