Chapter 1284 Someone Wants to Take Advantage of the Situation
In Luoyang City, Huangfu Chaobo was already a little worried, although he had already guessed in advance that he would face more than just attacks from the armies of Wei and Zhao. But after the news came, Huangfu Chaobo discovered that his situation was worse than he thought. In addition to nearly 200,000 troops from Wei and Zhao sending troops to attack Wei County, there were also two armies attacking him. attack.
On May 2, after learning that the Wei State had launched an attack on Handan and Wei County of the Tang State, the Qi Army suddenly sent troops from Rencheng State. After arriving at Jinxiang City, the Qi Army did not attack the city immediately, leaving behind an army of 10,000 people. After surrounding Jinxiang City, the army approached Changyi City, the seat of Shanyang County.
In the palace, Huangfu Chaobo once again gathered everyone to discuss how to deal with Qi's attack now and the problems that would be faced in the future.
"My lords, the Qi State has now sent troops. If the prediction is correct, the Wu State will probably be unable to hold on." Huangfu Chaobo sat on the throne and said to everyone in a deep voice;
"Your Majesty is wise," Guo Jia calmly patted Huangfu Chaobo's butt: "Now in Henan and Hebei, the armies of the Three Kingdoms have begun to launch an attack. Judging from Sun Wu's situation, King Wu will not sit idly by. , so it is inevitable for Wu to send troops, it just depends on where they plan to attack. "
"Your Majesty should also be on guard against Liu Biao in Jingzhou. Jiangxia County in Jingzhou is adjacent to our Ludong. If our army is attacked from all sides, there is no guarantee that Liu Biao will not have other thoughts." Dong Zhao said;
"Liu Biao's country is fine. Now there are two schools each of war soldiers and garrison troops in Xunyang City, with a total of 10,000 troops garrisoned. General Han Xian is also a veteran in the army. If Huang Zu dares to send troops to Xunyang, he will definitely come. No reply. I'm just worried about the direction of Wu's troops." Huangfu Chaobo shook his head.
At this point, Huangfu Chaobo suddenly spoke to Shi Adao: "General Shi, is there any news about the situation of Qi's troops and horses now? Which troops and horses have been dispatched, and who are the generals?"
"Back to your Majesty, there is no detailed intelligence report yet, but the intelligence coming from Jinxiang shows that at least 80,000 to 100,000 troops are passing through Jinxiang and heading towards Changyi." Shi A stood up and replied;
"Send the order and get the detailed information as soon as possible!" Huangfu Chaobo said in a deep voice;
Now the situation in Wei County is very clear. The combined forces of Zhao and Wei have nearly 60,000 cavalry. Although Zhao Yun hit the target with one blow and wiped out more than 10,000 Wei troops in two consecutive battles, but among the lost troops and horses Most of them were infantry, and the total number of cavalry was less than 2,000.
The Tang Army's own cavalry sent less than 40,000 cavalry to Wei County, of which there were less than 20,000 special troops, and the rest included 10,000 tiger and horse cavalry and 10,000 ordinary cavalry. Compared with the coalition forces, there is still a big gap in combat power. Under the current situation, Huangfu Chaobo can only hope that Zhao Yun and Lu Su can seize the opportunity and cripple one of the coalition's cavalry first, so that Tang Cai has some hope of winning, otherwise...
Just as Huangfu Chaobo was discussing countermeasures with a group of military advisers, Cao Cao had already led hundreds of thousands of troops from Qi to the city of Changyi. This time, Cao Cao spent a total of 20,000 Qingzhou troops, 10,000 tiger and leopard cavalry, plus three battalions of soldiers, Wuwei camp, Zhong base camp and Zhongjian camp, plus 10,000 soldiers in the hands of Cao Ren, the prefect of Rencheng. There are 10,000 soldiers from the county, as well as 10,000 soldiers and horses summoned by Yang Pei, the Prime Minister of Lu, and 10,000 troops from Jibei Prime Minister, a total of 100,000 soldiers, plus 20,000 civilian craftsmen, the total number of soldiers and horses reaches 120,000. .
In addition to these soldiers and horses, Cao Cao left Xiahou Dun, the governor of Qingzhou and Prime Minister of Beihai, to guard Qingzhou. At the same time, he also left 10,000 Qingzhou soldiers and tiger and leopard cavalry each, as well as two elite battalions of Xiaoqi and guerrillas for Xiahou Dun. Defend the royal city. Xiahou Dun's mission was not only to defend the royal city, but also to lead the Qingzhou counties to defend against Langya's army.
Xiahou Dun, the governor of Dongjun, gathered troops from Dongjun, Dongping Kingdom, and Pingyuan Kingdom to force Puyang to contain Zhang He's army in Puyang City, so that it would not dare to go south for support.
Not only Xiahou Dun, Cao Ren of Donghai Kingdom also gathered troops from Pengcheng Kingdom, Donghai Kingdom and Xiapi Kingdom, and made a plan to march into Pei Kingdom to threaten the Tang Army Pei Kingdom and Qiaojun. In fact, another purpose was to defend at the same time. Wu State and Langya Army.
With Cao Cao's naturally suspicious character, how could he trust Wu and the Langya Army so easily, so he made such an arrangement.
After entering Shanyang, Cao Cao ordered a total of 20,000 troops from the Zhongjian Battalion and the Lu Army to completely surround Jinxiang City, which had less than 5,000 people. His own army marched toward Changyi City non-stop, hoping to Xu Rong was caught off guard. starter
But what he didn't expect was that Xu Rong in Changyi City had already received Luoyang's warning and defended Changyi City like an iron barrel.
Before Luoyang could make a decision, the next day, news came back from Lujiang County that the Wu army in Jiujiang had made some changes. Sun Quan, the King of Wu, personally led tens of thousands of troops and set off from Shouchun City towards Anfeng City where Ji Ling was stationed. It was estimated that he would arrive at the latest Tomorrow, the Wu army will be able to march to Anfeng City.
The general stationed in Anfeng City is Ji Ling, the deputy general of the Xuanwu Camp. In addition to the 5,000 garrison troops, there are also 10,000 elite heavy infantry and 5,000 cavalry in the hands of Ji Ling. , New 81 Chinese website is the fastest updated PC version:
Kong Xin, the chief general of Xuanwu Camp, guards Shu County, Lujiang County. In addition to the 10,000 special units "Da Qin Rui Shi" in his hands, there are also 5,000 cavalry and infantry soldiers each, plus the Lujiang Army. The captain has 10,000 county soldiers, so Shu County's defense is very tight.
After the news of Wu's dispatch of troops came, Huangfu Chaobo was not worried, but breathed a sigh of relief. Now all the forces that can send troops have already sent troops, and there should be no uncontrollable factors next.
As for the little emperor in the west, Zhang Xiu of Nanyang and Liu Biao of Jingzhou, these forces are not the focus of Huangfu Chaobo's attention at present, so he did not pay too much attention to these people.
"Fengxiao, what suggestions do you have for the Wu army?" Looking at the overwhelming rush towards him, Huangfu Chaobo said helplessly to Guo Jia;
"My lord, there is no need to be too anxious and panic. In fact, among all the armies, the most relaxed one should be the Wu army that sent troops to Lujiang." Guo Jia stood up and saluted Huangfu Chaobo;
"Oh, why do you say that?" Huangfu Chaobo was refreshed when he heard this, and asked hurriedly;
"Although Wu has five counties, it is also facing enemies on all sides, so no matter how unwise Sun Ce is, he is just thinking about fishing in troubled waters, and his purpose is different from that of the three countries of Wei, Zhao, and Qi." Guo Jia smiled;
