The revival of Shu Han

Chapter 479 Luoyang is Luoyang ([-])
On the basis of history, Zuo Si's "Sandu Fu" made Luoyang expensive for a while.Among them, there is such a sentence in Wei Du Fu: Those who are in the right position use the middle summer as their throat, not the side hanging as their lapel.Those who have been called hooligans for a long time regard morality as their vassal, and do not use danger as a screen.In addition, it is also said: Although the Jiange is sloppy (嶚 [-]: danger), those who rely on it will fall, not because of the deep roots.Although Dongting is dredging, those who lose it go to the north, not because they love people and govern the country.

In short: Luoyang is located, although there are many hills around it, but as far as this city is concerned, it does not have any dangerous terrain to use.

However, the largest city in the world in this era does not need too many strategic advantages.

Thanks to the strong national power of Cao Wei in the early years, when Wei Mingdi Cao Rui was in power, he implemented the policy of strong stems and weak branches, and used the power of the world to repair Luoyang City.Therefore, Luoyang had a population of more than 60 in its heyday, compared with Chengdu, the capital of Shu Han, which had a population of only 10 when it was most prosperous.Compared with Jianye, the capital of Soochow, which did not completely enclose the city wall from its founding to its demise, Luoyang's city wall is more than four feet high (nearly [-] meters), not to mention, it still has two inner and outer walls.Fangyuan covers an area of ​​nearly thirty square kilometers.

Therefore, as a traverser, Guan Yi has seen countless real Ming and Qing ancient city walls and computer special effects in movies in later generations.But when he really came to this huge city surrounded by rammed earth, he couldn't help but be shocked by the ambition of the rulers of this era and the creativity of the people.

This is the case for a time traveler with such a broad vision.The other generals and soldiers of Ji Han, especially those who were from Yizhou in the former Shu Han, were even more dumbfounded.

"Great Sima, Ling Bo (Li Mi) came back from his envoy to Luoyang in the past, and said that the city of Luoyang is high and the walls are deep, and the general didn't feel much at all. I saw you today..."

"Yeah, such a huge city, although it is extremely difficult for the defenders to defend. But the city is huge, and it can hold enough people and food. If it is exhausted, I don't know how long it will take."

"Hmm." Riding horses with all the generals under his command, they went around Luoyang at a normal horse speed, which took almost a whole day.Guan Yi also felt dizzy for a while: besides being huge, with high walls and deep walls, this city also imitated what he did in Mei County before, and built many new protrusions-this is the bastion.Not only that, the visible density of catapults on the walls of this city is enough to make one's scalp tingle.

His scalp was numb, in fact, Sima Yan and others in the city also had scalp numbness.Because Guan Yi came too fast.

Guan Yi received the Daluze battle report on January [-].According to the calculations of the monarchs and ministers of the Jin Kingdom, such a large territory in the five prefectures of Hebei, and such a powerful family.It will take months at best to straighten out these relationships.Our side advanced to the vicinity of Luoyang by the Han army in the middle and late March. It was already from the perspective of expecting the enemy to be lenient, and we highly valued Sima Guan.

However, Guan Yi and his army appeared outside Luoyang on the first day of March.

In this world, there are two kinds of leadership.One is to make simple things complicated, and the other is to make complicated things simple.The former is suitable for whitewashing peace, while the latter is suitable for doing practical things.

From Ji Han to up and down, of course, those who do practical things occupy the mainstream.

Thanks to the preparations started a few years ago, the graduates of Longshouyuan College have just graduated.Therefore, in the five prefectures of Hebei newly included in the territory, Ji Han has no shortage of grassroots officials.

Since Ji Han began to rule in Guan Yi, he implemented the system of disabled veterans serving as the head of the most basic administrative unit, the head of the pavilion.Therefore, there are also established rules for the placement of wounded soldiers that can be followed.

After Guan Yi suggested to Liu Chen the candidates for the governor of the state, Liu Chen replied very quickly, and the relevant officials immediately set off with the imperial decree.Within a month, all the governors of the five states were in place.

In addition to the documents appointed by the governor, Liu Chen also issued two imperial decrees at the suggestion of Guan Yi: First, all five states in Hebei will be exempted from tax this year!Starting next year, the tax ceiling for land occupation orders will be lowered to [-] mu.Second, the five prefectures in Hebei will continue to implement the nine-rank Zhongzheng system for one year. Whether to switch to the probation system next year will be discussed again!

The so-called new income of a regime is afraid that the new territory will be unstable, isn't it just that the aborigines on this territory are afraid that their interests will be damaged?Now I will assure you that your basic interests will not be affected.Then what are you guys making a fuss about?

Moreover, based on Ji Hansi Wencao's practice of insisting on preaching at the grassroots level over the years, coupled with the fact that a large number of wounded and veterans moved into each pavilion to serve as the pavilion chief.The meaning of these two edicts is not afraid that the people in the five prefectures of Hebei will not be clear.

The key point is that Ji Han still left [-] cavalry in Hebei. Among the commanders of the [-] cavalry, Huangfu Kai may be better.This Qian Zhongyuan has stayed in Hebei for many years.The twists and turns of the aristocratic family are clear!Which of you dare to jump out and make trouble?I know how many manors your family has and where they are hidden. It is not easy to destroy your clan.

In this way, wouldn't the five prefectures of Hebei be temporarily stable?Now that I'm safe, why don't I rush to Luoyang as soon as possible?Do you really want you to prepare food for a long-term defense of the cage city?

On the first day of March, the Jihan Bingzhou Front Army with more than [-] troops arrived in the north of Luoyang City.

In the second day of junior high school, after the Jihan Jizhou front army set aside a considerable part of its forces to deter the five states of Hebei, the remaining [-] troops were also led by Zhao Tong to the city of Luoyang.

On the fifth day of the lunar new year, Zhang Yi, Zhang Zun and others led an army of 5000 people ([-] were added to the left-behind corps) and arrived in Luoyang.

So far, the three front armies of the Han army have completed their meeting in Luoyang, with a total of 17 troops.

It can be said that although Ji Han achieved great strategic success in this battle.In less than two years, he won the five states of Hebei and completed the encirclement of Luoyang.However, the generals of the Jin State also made great achievements in terms of tactics.They were not as good as their opponents in terms of equipment and horses, and when the emperor of their own side was stunned, at the cost of 25 to 6 people, they caused nearly 10 casualties to Ji Han.

(The 256 million people were not all killed in battle, at least 12 of them were surrendered.)
And in the state of Jin at this time, no, maybe it is called the isolated city of Luoyang at this time, there are 8 people who were evacuated by Du Yu, 2 people who were evacuated by Yanghu Weiguan from Tianjingguan, and a group of people brought back by Ma Long from Tongguan. 3000 people, as well as 4 Prince's Guards and 17 new recruits from Yuzhou at the end of last year.A total of 3000 people.

Huh?Why has it been going on for a long time, Jin has more troops than Ji Han?

But you have to think that Jin has invested more than 41 troops in this battle.And Ji Han is only 29 (23 in the first phase, and [-] will be added later. Zhang Yi will lead the [-] left-behind army to join).Moreover, Ji Han still has [-] cavalry in Hebei.

Moreover, Ji Han's army has experienced the test of many battles.Among the existing troops of the Jin army, only Ma Long's troops and the former Jingzhou soldiers and Yangzhou soldiers led by Yang Hu and Wei Guan can fight the Han army in an upright field.Therefore, in the case of an equal number of people, the option of driving out of Luoyang City and fighting the Han army in a field battle actually does not exist for the Jin State.

What's more, among the defenders of the Jin State, there are no organized cavalry units.And the Han army still has [-] elite cavalry who survived the battle.

Therefore, when the Han army appeared near Luoyang, the only thing Jin's monarchs and ministers could do was to gather the people and close the city gates.

However, in the face of such a fortified city, it is to attack the opponent's capital with inferior forces.Therefore, Guan Yi and his subordinates still need to carefully consider how to fight this battle.
