Chapter 1464: Han Banner World (One Hundred and Fifty-Four) Clear
At the end of the sky, the fire reflected half of the sky red, and there was a faint sound of thunder. Wang Ming stood on the top of the city, fully clothed, staring in that direction, but his eyes were full of sorrow. Either staying or leaving is a dead end. The son of Qin State was buried in this land in vain.
"General Wang, will they succeed?" Veteran Tan Wei walked to Wang Ming's side and asked in a low voice.
"Do you think they will succeed?" Wang Ming asked with a wry smile.
Tan Wei shook his head: "Yang Dashu has two divisions in his hands. Plus his military headquarters, there are more than 20,000 people. The Han army has firearms and sharp crossbows. Yang Dasha himself is famous for being able to fight tough battles. Now we have It can be guessed that Qu Wan was held back by Yang Dasha's teachers and students in Yingshui. It was an attack of 150,000 people. Now + pig + pig + island + novel + www + z + Xuan Yiwei only has more than 30,000 people. I think It is simply impossible to break Yang Dasha’s defense.”
"That's what I want to say." Wang Mingdao: "I have tried my best to contain the two Han cavalry divisions for them. At least until noon tomorrow, these two Han cavalry divisions will attack them. If Before that, they cannot break through, and the entire army will be destroyed. "
Tan Wei lowered his head, his head full of pale hair, which made Wang Ming's eyes moist. Half a year ago, Zhou Yu led the main force of the southern frontier army to Xianyang westward, but was framed and almost unable to escape, but was eventually forced to leave. Go, while Tan Wei single-handedly resisted the attack of 200,000 troops in Sanchuan County, and was finally exhausted. Tens of thousands of Qin's sons died under the sword of the Chu people. Tan Wei also suffered from many wounds and has not recovered yet.
At that time, the southern frontier army was almost in despair. The sudden alliance with the Chu people gave them hope, but in the blink of an eye, they fell into a situation worse than before.
"The Qin Dynasty is over!" Wang Ming punched the cold wall with a heavy fist, knocking off a piece of the hard-shelled snow on it.
Tan Wei raised his head, "We are in a desperate situation. But the Han Kingdom must not be feeling well now. Xu Yahua, nearly 100,000 people at Hangu Pass, attacked Jinyang. The Han people transferred their main force to the Chu Kingdom, and Jinyang could only be passive. Defend, and Wang Changyong leaves Shannan County, there is only one Third Military Region in that direction, and it is still an empty frame. Now it is up to us to move faster. If our two armies can penetrate deep into the hinterland of the Han army, our Daqin can still be saved."
"I'm not that optimistic." Wang Ming shook his head: "How long has it been since we joined forces with Qu Wan to attack Han? Before that, the news from Chu was very optimistic. The Chu people were steadfast in their oaths They were able to hold Jingzhou and drag out the main force of the Han army. Only then did we, Da Qin, make up our minds to attack Han, but what will be the result? "
Glancing at Tan Wei, Wang Ming smiled bitterly and said: "We just took action here, almost with all the strength of the country, and the Jingzhou theater suddenly collapsed, as if the Han people suddenly became extremely powerful at this time. , but this is possible.
General Tan, you are also a veteran in the army and have fought countless battles in your life. It’s hard to think about this. What is this for? "
Tan Wei took a deep breath and said in disbelief: "Is it possible that the Han people did this deliberately? They just wanted to lure the snake out of the hole, lure our Da Qin soldiers and horses out and then annihilate them? But where did their soldiers and horses come from? The Han people We are all aware of the military establishment.”
"Now the situation is very clear. The main force of the Han army will definitely launch a general offensive from the south of Daqin, and in Jinyang, they will definitely be the main defender. In that direction, the Han people still have three main forces left, which is insufficient for offense and more than enough for defense. . I just can’t figure out how they can deal with Shannan County. Moreover, Gou Yi also told me that Lu Chao has contacted Wang Jian on the other side of the desert, and Wang Jian will also send troops to help us when we launch an attack. "Wang Ming said in confusion: "How can the Han people deal with these two groups of soldiers?"
The two looked at each other, with a look of extreme horror flashing in their eyes. Wang Jian, both of them suddenly thought that the variable was Wang Jian. If Wang Jian did not help Great Qin, but fell to the Han, then Wang Changyong The troops coming out of Shannan County will probably suffer heavy losses.
"No, it can't be like this. The Wang Jian sect is a great general of the Qin Dynasty. They are deeply favored by the Qin Dynasty. How could they turn their backs on the Qin Dynasty?" Tan Wei shook his head repeatedly, as if he wanted to throw this terrible thought out of his mind. .
"Is the Great Qin of today still the Great Qin of the past?" Wang Ming stared wide-eyed at the distance where half the sky was reflected red by the fire. "God knows what the surname of the man sitting on the throne is? Da Qin is already the Lu family dynasty. The Wang family is indeed an important general of the Qin State, but the Qin State is not very good to them. Back then, he sacrificed his life for Jing Rufeng With 20,000 elite men under Wang Xiao's command, the grassland was defeated. Da Qin took back Li Xin's body, but turned a blind eye to Wang Xiao, who also died in the battle. He also killed the whole Wang family because of Wang Jian's escape, and imprisoned him. Deguan, you said Wang Jian has no grievances? Now that he has made his own way in the world, why does he come back? And he is close to the Han Dynasty but far away from the Qin Dynasty. Why would he risk revenge from the Han Dynasty in the future to help us? "
"Great Qin is about to end!" Tan Wei exclaimed in pain.
"Great Qin has been finished a long time ago." Wang Ming sneered: "Since Lu Chao entered Xianyang, Great Qin has been finished."
"General Wang, what should we do?" Tan Wei asked.
"Do your best and obey fate!" Wang Ming lowered his head. "The main force of the Han army will arrive soon. We can't wait long."
Turning around, he staggered down the tower. "General Tan, you should go to sleep too. The Han people will not attack our defense now. They will not let the cavalry attack our defense. They will wait for the arrival of the infantry and their heavy artillery. Only then will they launch their general attack. There is no need to save food. Let the men eat to their heart's content. Lu Zihui only took away three days' worth of food. The remaining food can last us ten days or half a month even if we have three meals a day, but we definitely can't defend for that long, so don't let the men starve."
Listening to Wang Ming's sad words and looking at his swaying back, Tan Wei covered his face with his hands, tears silently sliding down.
In Yingshui, Wu Ya welcomed an important figure from Jicheng. Mei Hua was seriously injured and finally collapsed after holding on for a few days. He has now been sent back to Jicheng to recuperate. The remaining troops of the Third Division are temporarily under Wu Ya's command. Yingshui and Yingchuan are also under Wu Ya's responsibility. Fortunately, after Qu Wan surrendered, the civil officials of Yingchuan and Yingshui who had withdrawn earlier returned immediately. Luo Zhongshu, the governor of Yingchuan, is also a very capable guy. He quickly sorted out the order and started the post-war recovery work immediately.
However, Wu Ya was very depressed. He did not catch up with the battle of Yingshui. Now he was at a loss in the battle to annihilate the Qin army in Wulong. Now his task was to guard the nearly 100,000 surrendered troops of Qu Wan. Although Qu Wan had surrendered, the Han army did not disarm the Chu army due to insufficient troops, fearing that it would provoke new conflicts. Although they controlled the enemy's food and grass supply and gave food once a day, it was always a hidden danger. Even if Wu Ya wanted to participate in the battle again, he could only stay in Yingshui honestly and be his guard carefully.
This person, accompanied by Yi Bin, deputy director of the State Administration Bureau, was Zhou Yu, the former general of the southern border army of Qin State, who arrived in Jicheng before the war. Now Zhou Yu has taken root in Jicheng, and his family, who were originally placed in a secret place, have also been taken over. Now he is the largest shareholder and head of Jicheng Evening News.
Of course, there is only one reason for him to come here, the tens of thousands of southern border troops of Qin State trapped in Wulong County.
Zhou Yu was willing to come here because he didn't want the army he had led for many years to be destroyed under the artillery fire of the Han army. Secondly, it was also a way to repay the favor of the Han Kingdom for not pursuing his previous crimes and letting him settle down in Jicheng.
The southern border army was not easy to fight, and the Han army also had a consensus. When the Chu army had 200,000 troops attacking Sanchuan County, Tan Wei led more than 10,000 southern border troops to resist for a long time and paid a heavy price. Now there are more than 40,000 southern border troops. If they really fight, the Han army estimates that the price they will pay will not be small. More importantly, Gao Yuan didn't want to waste too much time on this army. If Zhou Yu could persuade Wang Ming to lead his troops to lay down their weapons, it would be a good thing for both sides.
Zhou Yu did not stop after arriving at Yingshui. He immediately came to Wulong with Yi Bin under the escort of a team of cavalry sent by Wu Ya.
Wulong County City, as Wang Ming expected, even if the Xuanyiwei tried their best, they could not break through the blockade of Yang Dasha's First Army. Countless attacks were unsuccessful. After losing soldiers and generals, the attack from the Han cavalry on both wings finally made him unable to bear it. The taste of being attacked by three fierce cavalry divisions in turn is definitely not something that ordinary people can enjoy. The 30,000 Xuanyiwei finally lost their fighting spirit on the second day of the attack, and the desperate Qin army collapsed. After the collapse, the Qin army completely became a lamb to be slaughtered in front of 20,000 cavalry.
Wang Ming saw Lu Zihui tied up on the top of the city, and Gou Yi was nowhere to be seen. I don’t know if he died or escaped. Wang Ming estimated three days, but the Xuanyiwei only supported it for two days before it collapsed across the board.
The failure of the Xuanyiwei made the morale in Wulong County City even lower. Three days ago, when the Xuanyiwei began to break through, Wang Ming had withdrawn all the troops from the three outer areas into the county city.
"Now, we are the only ones left!" Wang Ming looked back at Tan Wei and smiled bitterly.
Below the city, in addition to the three cavalry divisions, the flag of Yang Dasha's First Army also appeared in front of them. However, they had no intention of attacking. After watching for a while below the city, the cavalry actually led their troops away and disappeared from the sight of the people on the city.
Three days later, a man rode alone and appeared under the city of Wulong County.
"General Zhou!" Above the city, Wang Ming and other generals of the southern border army all cried out in surprise. (To be continued.)
