MTL - Wei and Jin Cooks-Chapter 797 same decision
Standing beside Zhao Hanzhang, Xun Xiu saw Shi Le, clenched his fists tightly, stared at him and said, "Master, let the last general play this time?"
"The gates of the city are closed. As long as they don't attack the city, let them scold you." Zhao Hanzhang looked away and said, "Send someone to call Mi Ce."
Xun Xiu was taken aback for a moment and then responded.
Zhao Hanzhang stood in front of the map and paced back and forth. Xun Xiu and others all retreated, and only Ming Yu stood in front of him.
Watching her wandering around for a while, Ming Yu asked, "What does your envoy want to do?"
Zhao Hanzhang stopped in his tracks, turned his head and looked at him with piercing eyes, and said, "I want to go out to encircle Wei to save Zhao and take advantage of the fire."
Ming Yu's eyes flashed, "You want to attack Pingyang?"
Zhao Hanzhang said: "Liu Cong's army is out, and Pingyang is empty. This is a golden opportunity."
"But Shangdang is in the hands of Shi Le, even if we occupy Pingyang, we will not be able to hold it."
"So let's fight together with Shangdang!"
Ming Yu was surprised, "Where do we get the troops?"
Zhao Hanzhang clenched his fists and said: "Only this one chance, give Jingzhou an order to let Wang Yifeng and Wang Meizi lead the troops to help Yuzhou. I plan to transfer Mize and Yuanli to assist Beigongchun in attacking Shangdang."
Ming Yu couldn't help wandering around, and finally stopped and said: "Master, you can think clearly. If it succeeds, Jin can get rid of these ten years of troubles, but if it doesn't work, all of us will be doomed, and even Jin may perish."
Zhao Hanzhang said: "Great dangers bring great benefits, and dangers turn into opportunities. How do you know that this is not our opportunity?"
Ming Yu was overwhelmed with emotion, thinking what she said made sense.
So it should be done.
Zhao Hanzhang and Ming Yu didn't tell anyone about this matter, they just summoned Mize and Yuan Li, re-armed, and asked them to leave with 50,000 troops.
The order to transfer the Jingzhou soldiers also rushed south six hundred miles.
They didn't know that when Zhao Hanzhang changed his defense, Shi Le also quietly took away a group of people and went straight to Zhencheng County.
During the war, the news was not transmitted in time. When Shile began to attack Zhencheng County, Mi Ce and Yuan Lizhen divided their troops to attack Chaoge County and Gong County. Six counties in Ji County and four counties were occupied when Shile sent troops to the south. There are not many soldiers.
Ji County belongs to Sizhou, because it is too close to Yanzhou and Shangdang, and has a special geographical location. When Zhao Hanzhang regained Sizhou, he didn't want to provoke Shi Le and Gou Xi, so he didn't move this place.
The six counties of Ji County are still obeying the emperor's order and do not belong to any side.
And Wei County to the north of Ji County was divided into two, half occupied by Shi Le, and half occupied by Liu Yuan's Western Huns.
Because these four counties were not occupied by Shi Le for a long time, Yuan Li contacted the gentry inside according to the list given by Zhao Hanzhang, and quickly took down two counties.
Mitzer's actions were not slow, he took Chaoge County and Ji County very quickly, and they hadn't stopped yet, they wanted to take over the other two counties as well, after conscription, they joined Huang An and attacked Shangdang and Wei County .
At this time, Bei Gongchun in Luoyang City and Fu Tinghan outside Pingyang City received Zhao Hanzhang's letter.
That’s right, Fu Tinghan went to Pingyang City. As soon as the war broke out, he and Ji Yuan immediately wrote to Zhao Hanzhang.
The letter was sent, but there was an answer soon, and no one was found. The messenger replied that Zhao Hanzhang had returned to Chen County. Although they also had a letter to Chen County, Fu Tinghan was always afraid that she would miss the letter.
As soon as the war broke out, everyone vaguely focused on him, not only Bei Gongchun, Xie Shi and Chen Wu, but even Ji Yuan asked his opinion.
This put Fu Tinghan under great pressure. He was also afraid that Zhao Hanzhang would lose Luoyang when he came back, so he decided to take the initiative after careful consideration.
He said this, "Hanzhang said that offense is the best defense."
He racked his brains to say more to convince everyone to agree with his point of view, who knew that when he finished speaking, Bei Gongchun slapped the table and said: "Fu Shangshu is right, we should take the initiative to attack at this time, Not only can we find out their truth, but also let them know that our Sizhou is not easy to mess with."
Who was the Xiliang army afraid of?
Xie Shi also nodded, "The Huns and the Han Kingdom are too ambitious, they dare to attack Sizhou, Yuzhou and Yanzhou at the same time. Yanzhou has the emperor and General Gou Dao. I guess their main force must be there, and Pingyang is empty. We can fight."
Ji Yuan also shook his cattail fan and said, "Liu Yuan sent troops at this time not only to destroy Jin and dominate the world, but also to divert the attention of the country because of the drought. It just so happens that we come to help the envoy to encircle Wei and save Zhao."
So everyone happily decided to take the initiative, and the speed was very fast.
Fu Tinghan also personally wrote a letter to Fu Zhi, inviting him to send troops to Pingyang together, and to have a flanking attack with him, and in order to promote friendly cooperation between the two sides, he himself ran outside Pingyang City.
When Zhao Hanzhang's letter of appointment was transferred to Pingyang City together with the letter, Fu Tinghan had already stood on the hillside to watch Zhao Erlang fight.
There are not many troops in Sizhou, and every soldier is very important, so Fu Tinghan improved the trebuchet to make it have a longer range. If he hadn't had some scruples and threw stones instead of gunpowder bags, I am afraid this battle will be fought smoother.
They didn't just attack Pingyang City head-on, they also divided their troops into three places to attack other cities.
Pingyang city walls are high and solid, and if one place cannot be attacked, he will surround and fight. At worst, he will isolate Pingyang City just like Liu Yuan isolated Jinyang.
Liu Kun can defend Jinyang alone, but Liu Yuan may not be able to.
Because Zhao Erlang and Bei Gongchun were in Sizhou, Liu Yuan specially left a large army to guard Pingyang, so Zhao's army made no progress in attacking Pingyang for three consecutive days, but several counties to the east of Pingyang City were successively attacked by Zhao's army. Liu Yuan I was also afraid that the Zhao family's army would attack too fiercely and eventually isolate Pingyang City, so I sent reinforcements.
As soon as Zhao Hanzhang's letter arrived, Fu Tinghan immediately discussed with Bei Gongchun, and selected some people from the Zhao family army and Xiliang army guarding Luoyang to support them.
Zhao Hanzhang originally wanted to stay in Meng County and be honest and patient with Shi Le, but defending the city is really boring. Meng County has sufficient resources, backed by Yuzhou, and under the premise of sufficient preparation, it will not be easy for Shi Le's army to attack.
And since that day, Shi Le's eighteen riders changed two of them a day to yell and scold. In just three days, Zhao Hanzhang got to know five of the eighteen riders.
She didn't go out of the city. Xun Xiu and the others chose to fight, and fought with them. They won or lost, and there were not many casualties.
Obviously, they are also procrastinating, until the other party loses patience and acts impulsively, and then the next blow is sure to hit.
Usually, it would not be a problem for Meng County to guard for three to five months. Zhao Hanzhang is very confident in herself. She felt that with her own ability, guarding for a year would consume enough energy to kill Shi Le.
No wonder it’s boring. Apart from the fact that the opponent’s daily refurbished swear words are a bit interesting, I can only listen to the reports of the battle from all parties here.
The situation in Yanzhou is also good. I heard that Gou Xi won three consecutive battles and regained two cities.
So Zhao Hanzhang saw that Shi Le never showed up, so he simply handed over Meng County to Xun Xiu, and she also took a Zhao family army to leave quietly, and went straight to Shangdang.
