King of Liao at the end of Han Dynasty

Chapter 601 Surprise Attack on Wuguan
"Hey..." Liu He sighed, and said sadly: "The imperial city of the great Han Dynasty has ended up in such a state, the previous emperors, please bless your descendants..." Of course, this descendant also includes Liu. and myself.

The dilapidated state of the Luoyang Imperial Palace disappointed Liu He, who was originally in high spirits. He didn't expect that Luoyang, which had taken so much effort to conquer, would look like this. He waved his hands and said, "Go in and have a look!" His tone was clear The excitement and excitement just now.

After entering the Nangong Palace, the main hall, the Deyang Hall, came into view. Fortunately, Zhong Yao also repaired the Deyang Hall for his own use. Although it was not as grand as before, it still looked like a palace. Liu He didn’t get off the car. I ordered to continue walking in, but when I got to the back, it was different. The original jade steps and red beams, the altar was made of textured stone, the walls were decorated with colored paintings, and the gold pillars were carved with beautiful figures. , it was too horrible to look at, although he had been prepared in his heart for a long time, but seeing such a tragic scene, Liu He sighed again and again, because Zhang Yan knew that Liu He was going to enter the palace to have a look, so there was already something wrong in it. There are few guards, if there are no guards, there will be no one else. The family members of the soldiers under Zhong Yao's command are dead and running, and some of them are probably hiding. As for Liu He, he has already felt it in less than half of the time. It's extremely boring, and I can't bear to watch it again.

Liu He looked at Diao Chan, Diao Chan's eyes were already red, and he didn't know if it was true, or she was just pretending, or if this woman just cried, whether she was a scheming woman or not, Liu He could only wave his hands and order Humanity: "Go back!"

"No!" The carriage immediately turned around and wanted to drive out of the palace, but when it reached the gate, Liu Heyou stopped, and said to Zhang Yan: "Quickly clean up the city, and then quickly call the people to build this palace for me! "The tone was extremely decipherable, and it was even more commanding, which made Zhang Yan groan in his heart. No matter how much a dilapidated palace is repaired, it may not be able to recover in a few years. I am a military general, you let me dare Foreman's job, what should I do with this.

Although she didn't know what to do, Zhang Yan gritted her teeth and agreed, "No!"

Seeing Liu He's car running out of the city gradually, Zhang Yan and other Bingzhou soldiers behind him were filled with righteous indignation. Before Liu He's car ran away, Tao Sheng cursed: "My lord, I waited so hard for you!" After killing and injuring so many brothers and taking down Luoyang, it’s fine for him, Liu He, not to reward the soldiers, but he even asked us to build Luoyang, and he didn’t even think of us as human beings!”

Zhang Yan glanced nervously at Liu He and Che Nian in front of him. Obviously, Liu He's attention was not diverted by Tao Sheng's words at all, and he immediately turned around and reprimanded: "Presumptuous, don't be rude, quickly rectify the soldiers and horses, and clear the city." Let’s talk about repairing Luoyang later! Anyway, King Zhao didn’t set a time limit for us at this moment!”

"Hey!" Everyone gasped indignantly, but Zhang Yan still gave Zhang Fang a look, Zhang Fang understood, this is Zhang Yan going to see Sima Yi again, nodded, and brought two horses , followed Zhang Yan out of the city, dodged Liu He's car, and entered the camp first.

Sima Yi also heard the news that Luoyang City had been brought down, and his face couldn't hide his excitement. Sima Yi, who was in his 20s, was as scheming as the sea, but after all, he still had feelings. He wasn't that cold person like Hou Yu. After receiving Zhang Yan's return, he smiled, but immediately, his complexion lightened, and his expression of happiness and anger was indistinct, and he said quietly: "You let Zhong Yao go on purpose?"

Zhang Yan quickly explained: "This lord is wrong to blame someone. Zhong Yao is a scheming person. While our army was in the midst of a fierce battle with the defenders on the top of the city, he suddenly broke out from the weakly defended southwest Guangyang Gate." In the city, our army was too late to defend, so Zhong Yao rushed out, and it was the most critical time to fight the defenders on the top of the city, so I didn't dare to be mistaken, so I didn't divide my troops to pursue it!"

Sima Yi nodded and said: "Well, I didn't expect that Zhong Yao would be a person who dared to give up. He took thousands of soldiers on the top of the city as abandoned sons, and rushed out with a small group of troops!"

Zhang Yan immediately said: "My lord, I will personally lead the troops to chase after him!"

Sima Yi waved his hands and said: "You don't need to go, General Zhang Yan has been fighting for many days, let's go and rest first!"

"Thank you sir!" Zhang Yan and Zhang Fang arched their hands, rushed out of the tent, and still bowed respectfully to the general at the door.

After Zhang Yan left, Sima Yi rolled his eyes and immediately shouted: "Call me Gao Shun!"

"No!" There was a sound from the door.

After a while, there was a sound of silver armor, but Gao Shun, who had a dark complexion, walked in. Sima Yi immediately said, "Come on! General Gao Shun, sit down!"

Gao Shun waved his hand and said, "Your Excellency is ordering again!" Gao Shun is upright, loyal and brave, but now he has been deeply involved in Sima Yi's plan, but Gao Shun seldom has a good face towards Sima Yi, and he obeys. Sima Yi's orders were all because of Diao Chan's cooperation with Sima Yi and their confidantship. Gao Shun was very loyal to Diao Chan, so he had no choice but to follow Sima Yi. However, Gao Shun absolutely despised Sima Yi's insidiousness and cunning. .

Sima Yi didn't change his face, he knew Gao Shun's temper a long time ago, and Sima Yi would not disrespect this general who is very good at fighting because of Gao Shun's disrespect for him. I'm going to trouble the general!"

Gao Shun frowned, arched his hands and said: "My lord orders!"

Sima Yi said in a deep voice: "Do you want the general to lead the troops immediately and attack Wuguan with light clothes!" Gao Shun still hated Sima Yi very much, so Sima Yi did not speak to Gao Shun in an orderly tone, but used the word hope.

"Wuguan?" Gao Shun was startled, Luoyang had just been defeated, why did he go straight to Wuguan?
Sima Yi nodded, and said: "That's right! It's really Wuguan! Wuguan is the throat, but now Zhong Yao's army can't escape from Mianchi, and our army has won a new victory. Zhong Yao also knows that this Henan Yin has no choice but to stay." There is a lot of grain and grass in Mianchi. Zhong Yao must have taken all the grain and grass of the army, went south to Wuguan, and then fled to Nanyang, or fled to Guanzhong and other places. Zhong Yao is a famous general, and it is a problem for our army, so If you can't let him escape, you will have to trouble the general!"

Gao Shun wondered: "It's just to chase Zhong Yao, just send Qingqi to chase after him, why attack Wuguan!"

Sima Yi smiled lightly and said: "The general doesn't know, our army is from Hebei, and Zhong Yao has been traveling in Henan for many years, and the terrain is very familiar, while our army is new to the country. If Zhong Yao has the heart, he will definitely ambush our army. At that time, it will be us who will suffer, but the city pass is dead. If Zhong Yao wants to go south, he must go through Wuguan. If he goes west, Hangu Pass has already entered the hands of our army, and he can only bypass Wuguan, so Wuguan It is very important, and I hope the general understands!"

Gao Shun nodded. Although Sima Yi's character is not very good, what he said was very reasonable, and then he asked: "Since Wuguan is so important, there must be someone who is seriously ill. It is not easy to rush to attack it. , if during the attack, Zhong Yao suddenly arrives and flanks back and forth, our army will be defeated! There is nothing that can be done!"

Sima Yi smiled mysteriously and said, "Hehe, General, so our raid is different from other raids!"

"Different?" Gao Shun frowned...

"Huh! You are so different!" On the horse, Gao Shun kept scolding Sima Yi, and then looked around at the three thousand soldiers under his command, all of whom were also full of dissatisfaction. Because of their Cao Jun uniforms.

That's right, this is Sima Yi's strategy. It's still to cheat the city, let Gao Shun pretend to be the defeated army in Luoyang, lead thousands of vanguards to swindle the closed gate of Wuguan, and then press the whole army. Gao Shun has less than [-] troops The soldiers and horses are divided into front and rear teams and rush to Wuguan.

Although this is indeed a good strategy, these military uniforms of Cao Jun are all taken from the corpses of Cao Jun. For an upright person like Gao Shun, it is really uncomfortable. What kind of general? Soldiers, when it comes to combat, the soldiers and horses under Gao Shun are absolutely unambiguous, but wearing the clothes of dead people, to deceive people, the soldiers under Gao Shun's command also seem to have a face of reluctance. Yan's Bingzhou soldiers and Zhang Baiqi's Yellow Turban Army took the lead. Gao Shun's Handan army and Sima Yi's Hanoi army were the two groups. Nong, Zhang Yan took down Hulao Pass and Luoyang, both of which are great achievements. Only these two troops have not made any achievements. The horse rushed to Wuguan.

It is not without reason to say that Zhong Yao went southwest to Mianchi. Mianchi is an important food and grass land for Henan Yin. After breaking Luoyang, it will be Mianchi. It wasn't that Hongnong was beaten down. After Zhong Yao was defeated in Luoyang City, he would definitely retreat to Mianchi and continue to follow Liu and Zhou Xuan, but Hongnong was gone, and everything in Mianchi was full of enemy troops, so Zhong Yao had to take the army with him. Meeting Mianchi, rectifying troops and horses, the food, grass, weapons and supplies in Mianchi are all very useful, so Zhong Yao wanted to rest and reorganize his troops, and then went south to Wuguan, and Sima Yi knew that Zhong Yao was going from the southwest, so he knew Zhong Yao Therefore, it is precisely by taking advantage of this time difference that Gao Shun makes a surprise attack on Wuguan. By then, Zhong Yao will have nowhere to escape and die without a place to die...
