Chapter 964 Xiliang Army Vs Former Qin Army
In Shangyu City, Hanyang County, Xu Fengnian assembled an army of 200,000 troops to attack Qishan!
The flags of the Xiliang Army were buzzing, and there were 200,000 armored men in a sea, and the black armor was like a cloud.
The Xia army is dominated by strict black. Once tens of thousands of soldiers and horses march, it will give people a great sense of oppression.
Ma Chao, the chief general of the Xiliang army, held a hundred-jin iron spear, and immediately led the Xiliang iron cavalry to open the way. A battle flag of the Xiliang Army was unfurled behind Ma Chao.
The Xiliang Army and the Guanzhong Army tried their best to capture Hanzhong.
The difficulty of attacking Sichuan and Shu was more difficult than imagined.
Otherwise, Lao Qin would never be able to take down Hanzhong, which was defended by Zhang Dao.
Zhang Dao's Hanzhong fell because he was attacked by the north and the south, so he had to retreat to Shangyong City.
"The road to Shu is difficult, and it is difficult to go to the blue sky."
Xu Fengnian entered the Qishan Mountain Road, which was only the beginning of entering Shu.
From Xiliang to the capture of Hanzhong, one has to go through Yangping Pass and Jiange, all the way to the mountains. For an army of hundreds of thousands, supplies are as difficult as climbing the sky.
Only a large city can open the teleportation array, and the condition for a large city is to have a population of 500,000.
Xu Fengnian's Xiliang army took Zhuge Liang's road out of Qishan and attacked Xiabian City in Wudu County.
Liu Bei's army stationed 30,000 troops in Xiabian. Hanzhong heard that the Xiliang army took Qishan Road to attack Xiabian, so Wang Meng personally led his troops to support Xiabian. military.
As long as you guard the exit of the mountain road, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and Hanzhong can win more with less.
When Wei Yan served as the prefect of Hanzhong, even if Cao Wei tried his best to attack, he might not be able to win Hanzhong.
The Xiliang Army approached the most important Xiabian City in Wudu County all the way.
After capturing Xiabian City, Yangping Pass is in sight.
Wang Meng personally commanded an army to join the Xiabian defenders. His men were a group of former Qin generals, Deng Qiang, Zhang Hao, Xu Cheng, and Lu Guang. At the same time, Fu Jian, the former king of Qin and the current king of Di, also arrived.
There are many Qiang and Di tribes in Wudu County.
And Fu Jian has the ability to win over the Di tribe.
When Fu Jian appeared in Wudu County, tens of thousands of Di people came to join him. Wang Meng selected 20,000 Di soldiers from them, making his own force reach 130,000.
Fu Jian didn't want to fight against the imperial court represented by Xia Jun, but now he was emptied and couldn't help himself, sighing from time to time.
Wang Meng inexplicably had a good impression of Fu Jian, so he treated Fu Jian kindly.
It is a pity that Wang Meng has a new lord Liu Bei, so it is impossible to take refuge in the historical lord Fu Jian.
"Lu Guang guards Xiabian, and I, Deng Qiang and Zhang Hao stationed troops on Gushan. If the Xiliang army storms Xiabian, we will cut off their rear and wipe them all out."
Wang Meng is quite imposing.
"Why is it so complicated, let me, Lu Feng, take the lead and break it with one halberd!"
A fierce general followed behind Wang Meng, holding Fang Tian's painted halberd, full of murderous aura.
After Lu Bu recovered from his injury, Liu Bei appointed Lu Bu as the general of the Kingdom of Di to assist Wang Meng in defending Hanzhong.
Although Lu Bu seems to have been promoted, the Kingdom of Di consists of only two counties, Hanzhong County and Wudu County. Like the Tang Kingdom established by Nanyang Taishou Said Tang, it belongs to a small independent kingdom that is stubbornly resisting.
Wang Meng didn't like Lu Bu very much, and because of his status as a military adviser, he smiled slightly: "If the general listens to my command, he can defeat the Xiliang Army, otherwise, it may be defeated by the Xiliang Army."
"Are you underestimating me?!"
Lu Bu mentioned Wang Meng with one hand. In his eyes, Wang Meng's force was mediocre, and he could beat Wang Meng to the ground with one hand.
However, if Chutian or Liu Bei were to choose, they would choose Wang Meng instead of Lu Bu.
Wang Meng is equivalent to Zhuge Liang's type of talent, except for force, there is nothing to criticize in other aspects.
Wang Meng did not argue with Lu Bu, but said: "The general's force is unparalleled in the world, but Xiliang's soldiers are numerous and powerful, with 200,000 soldiers and horses, and we only have 130,000, a difference of 70,000. With the bravery of the general, it is equal to ten thousand people." It’s okay, I’m afraid it’s hard to make up the gap of 70,000 people, right?”
Only then did Lu Bu put Wang Meng down.
Lu Bu really couldn't guarantee that he could make up for the gap of 70,000 people, unless Lu Bu killed the leader of the Xiliang Army, Xu Fengnian, in the scuffle, would he be able to achieve an epic victory.
However, Xu Fengnian has been fighting for a long time and can live to this day. It is impossible to easily reveal his flaws and let Lu Bu take advantage of it.
Even, Xu Fengnian might find a "shadow warrior" to take the position of coach just like Chu Tian did during the Mangshan War.
Even if Lu Bu's surprise attack was successful, Xu Fengnian's stand-in might be the one who killed him.
"All of you generals are good at force. I don't doubt your bravery, but if you are talented, you probably won't go into exile in Hanzhong. In this battle, you are all responsible for charging the battle. As for the tedious matters of dispatching troops and horses, I will leave it to you." Give me."
With a wave of Wang Meng's right hand, a scroll of topographical maps was rolled out.
The next day, the 200,000 Xiliang army arrived at Xiabian without being hindered at Qishan Road. Wang Meng chose Xiabian City as a base to defend.
Lu Guang, a general of the Di tribe, guarded Xiabian, and Wang Meng personally led the main force to guard Gushan, and he and Xiabian were horns.
Under the management of Wang Meng and Yang Su, Hanzhong was impenetrable.
This time, it was also a contest between the Xiliang Army and the former Qin Army.
Fu Jian, Wang Meng, Deng Qiang, Zhang Hao, Lu Guang, Xu Cheng, these people are all heroes of the former Qin Dynasty.
If Wang Meng hadn't died of illness, and Fu Jian was rubbed on the ground by Xie Xuan's Beifu army during the Battle of Feishui, maybe the former Qin Dynasty would have a chance to unify China.
The opponent Xu Fengnian faces is the dream combination of the former Qin Dynasty, with the wisdom of Wang Meng, the courage of Deng Qiang, Zhang Hao, Lu Guang, and the characteristics of a monarch in Fu Jian.
Although the former Qin army on the opposite side, dominated by the Di rebels, had 70,000 fewer troops than the Xiliang army, Xu Fengnian did not relax.
The attacking side often needs to invest more troops than the defending side. This is normal and cannot be regarded as an advantage.
Han Sui, who was in charge of the investigation, came back and reported to Xu Fengnian: "My lord, Wang Meng is stationed at Gushan. We captured the Diren cavalry. According to torture, he said that if our army attacks Xiabian, Wang Meng will cut off our retreat!"
Xu Fengnian listened to the scout's report and pondered for a long time: "Wang Meng is just bluffing. If you want to deceive the enemy, you must deceive your own people. The information provided by these Di captives may not be accurate, because they don't know what Wang Meng really thinks. Prepare to attack Xiabian and force Wang Meng to fight us. Xiabian is the only city in Wudu County that has a teleportation array. Taking this city is equivalent to directly using the teleportation array to obtain supplies from Liangzhou."
Xu Fengnian fought Wang Meng, knowing that everything cannot be judged according to common sense, because Wang Meng is not very human.
"My lord, a counselor who claims to be Li Ru has come to ask for an interview, hoping to work for you."
When Xu Fengnian was dealing with Wang Meng cautiously, an important counselor appeared.
Xu Fengnian was a little startled: "Li Ru? Isn't he Dong Zhuo's adviser? He disappeared for more than ten years."
