Chapter 1220

After two thousand troops were arranged to settle in Tunliu City, Tian Yu immediately gathered a group of generals to discuss the matter. Soon, Lu Zhong, Shi a, the cavalry captain, the infantry captain and the crossbow captain arrived at the prefecture.

After everyone arrived, Tian Yu said: "you guys, now we have finally captured the eldest son city. We can say that we have completed half of the task of the king's strategy for the party. It's worth celebrating!"

After everyone was quiet, Tian Yu said, "general Shi, I remember that there should be a shadow guard stronghold in the eldest son's city, which is connected with China. I don't know where to get in touch with."

"Generally speaking, the capital strongholds of shadow guards in other countries can contact all the counties and cities in China, while the county and city strongholds in other countries can only contact the headquarters of the King City. It's just because of the king's Shangdang war that I started to add contact points to the strongholds of the eldest son city at the beginning of the year. Now I have established three contact points with Hanoi, Weijun and Hedong. ”Shi a got up and said,

"that's great. If you don't guess wrong, the king should be in huaixian county at this time. So after the meeting, please ask general Shi to send a detailed report to the king about our capture of the eldest son and our settlement, as well as the war arrangements behind."

Shia nodded to show that he knew.

"Well, now the eldest son and the garrison have been brought under our control. However, the old thief Zhang Yang has retreated to Huguan County, and should have gathered a lot of troops, which we can't capture any more. Then the next step is to send troops to the south, take over the army of the king and enter the Shangdang, and then assemble the army to quickly capture Huguan county until the whole Shangdang is under control. "

"After much consideration, Ben will decide that in addition to the two thousand soldiers in the garrison, the two thousand soldiers in the Peishi City, and the one thousand garrison in Gaoping pass, another five thousand soldiers and two thousand cavalry will be left to garrison the county city. The rest of the troops will be led by general Lu to go south to tianjingguan and take over the great king's army to the north."

Tian Yu's words just fell, and all the people present were surprised. You know, this time, 25000 troops were sent out from Hedong. Although up to now, the loss of troops is less than 1000, it is obvious that the troops in the county are insufficient. Five thousand infantry and two thousand cavalry, it is obviously very difficult to defend such a county as the eldest son.

Lu Zhong immediately stood up and objected: "no, general Tian, five thousand soldiers defend the county and the city. There are too few troops. If Zhao's ten thousand reinforcements arrive at Huguan County, Zhang Yang will gather a few more soldiers from the county. It is very likely that he will send his troops south to attack the county city. If the county city is lost, then we will be busy for a while, and it will affect the whole deployment of the king. "

"Yes, yes, there are too few five thousand soldiers. Besides, there are nearly ten thousand Zhao prisoners in the city. Please think twice, general The other generals also dissuaded him;

Zhang Yang ran away suddenly and made Tian Yu become a prisoner in the eldest son city. There are 6000 or 7000 soldiers in the eldest son City, and there are more than 10000 soldiers in the eldest son city. Now Tian Yu only leads 5000 soldiers to defend. If there is something wrong with the prisoners, how can these 5000 people be controlled.

"No matter, these soldiers know that our army has entered the Shangdang, and Zhang Yang has also fled. They will not have any other thoughts. At that time, they will select thousands of people from them and dispatch a group of soldiers to lead them to break up and mix up. I believe it will only take ten days and a half months to become a combat force." Tian Yu added;

"just are these newly recruited prisoners credible?" Lu Zhong doubted: "well, the army going south doesn't need too many troops. I'll leave another thousand iron eagles to the general. No matter how to say, it's also a shock to these soldiers."

Originally, they didn't have many soldiers. After several places were divided, Tian Yu had only a few soldiers. After thinking about it, Tian Yu agreed to Lu Zhong's request. Later, Tian Yu ordered the cavalry captain to sprinkle all the cavalry, to explore the situation of the surrounding city passes, and to closely monitor the situation of Huguan county.

At the end of the discussion, everyone began to get busy. After lunch, the army went south, led by Lu Zhong, and headed for the county seat in the south. After the army left, Tian Yu went to the camp where the prisoners were held under the protection of his own guards. He wanted to select 4000 soldiers from the camp, and then transferred 1000 soldiers from the camp to form a school of soldiers and horses. He used these days to carry out reorganization training in response to the possible attack on the Zhao army.

……

Huaixian County, in the afternoon, only received a pigeon letter from the eldest son city. After reading Tian Yu's collection, Huangfu Chaobo was relieved and finally captured the eldest son city. As for Zhang Yang, he ran away again. For Huangfu Chaobo, this is nothing at all. Just run away.

When he hands the Cuzhang to Guo Jia, Huangfu Chaobo breaks down the eldest son city. Zhang Yang flees to Huguan city. The news that Lu Zhong's army has gone south is written on a piece of paper. Then he gives it to a personal guard and asks him to send it to the army in front of tianjingguan quickly. He himself has to prepare to go to the army in front of tianjingguan tomorrow.

The next morning, Wang Jia of Huangfu Chaobo set out for tianjingguan under the protection of the trapped camp and Tiebi camp.Huaixian is more than 120 miles away from tianjingguan, of which there are more than 50 miles of Valley roads that are difficult to walk. In addition, it takes a few days for Lu Zhong's headquarters to get to the north of tianjingguan, so Huangfu Chaobo didn't rush to get to the camp in front of tianjingguan.

It took two days for Huangfu Chaobo and his party to arrive at tianjingguan. Looking at the camp stretching for miles under the long and narrow valley, Huangfu Chaobo could not help but feel relieved. After so many days' delay, he finally wanted to enter tianjingguan. Outside the camp, Huang Wudi, who had been informed for a long time, was leading a group of generals to wait outside the camp. Seeing the arrival of Huangfu Chaobo, they all bowed down and said: "welcome to the king, Wei Chen!"

"All the generals, get up. It's hard for you all!"

"Thank you

"Well, General Huang, general Dong, what's the situation of Zhao Jun in Tianjin pass?" Looking at Huang Wudi and Dong's visit, Huangfu Chaobo asked;

"return to the king!" Huang Wudi bowed down and said, "the day before yesterday evening, after receiving a letter from the king, the last general immediately sent someone to publicize this matter. It can be seen that although the generals of Zhao army still don't believe it, the morale of the soldiers has obviously dropped a lot compared with the previous few days. Now there should be some instability in the pass. I believe that these two days, when general Lu's army appears behind the pass, it should be able to go smoothly It's time to persuade the garrison to surrender. "

Huangfu Chaobo nodded. It would be best if he could persuade him to surrender without any blood. Thinking of this, he said, "let's go. You Aiqing will go to Guanzhong to have a look."

"No!"

The party quickly passed through the camp several miles long and came hundreds of steps outside the Tianjing pass. At this time, Zhao Jun in the Tianjing pass had already discovered the abnormality outside the pass. After the "meet the king" in the camp outside the pass, the king's flag appeared on the open space outside the pass. At this time, Zhao Jun soldiers on Tianjing pass didn't know what happened to Tang Jun outside the pass What happened.
