Chapter 1351

On the day of Yan Liang's army's withdrawal, the shadow guard who fled back to Tumen pass had already woken up. Zhang yandajia looked over and immediately gave him the memorial he had written. Then he asked him to report the war to Luoyang as soon as possible.

In the following time, while reorganizing and gathering the soldiers, Zhang Yan constantly strengthened the defense of Tumen pass, and then quietly waited for the king's life of Huangfu Chaobo. The Wei army in the East was also quite quiet. Apart from sending cavalry to keep an eye on Tumen pass, Zhang Nan sent troops to occupy the cities east of Tumen pass and eliminate the soldiers from Heishan camp.

At this time, the war in the north of Bingzhou entered a state of confrontation again.

In Yunzhong City, although Huang Xu has occupied the county city, he has not much spare power to launch an attack on Fuyang, an important city with a large army. Originally, he had only 50000 troops, including 40000 cavalry, and only 10000 real soldiers.

On this road, some soldiers have been damaged, including nearly a thousand soldiers. Later, in Qiangyin City, he left nearly a thousand soldiers. While attacking the cloud, he lost hundreds of soldiers. If calculated in this way, only 7000 people can use 10000 steps.

Although they have captured thousands of Zhao soldiers now, for these soldiers, first of all, they are basically ordinary soldiers of prefectures and states. The rank is too low to say, and the old and weak still occupy a considerable part of them. Second, as far as the current situation is concerned, it is unbearable to recruit taxi soldiers in a hurry, so Huang Xu did not think of sending troops to Fuyang immediately.

Huang Xu did not send troops to attack not only Fuyang, but also other cities in Yunzhong county. He was still controlled by more than a thousand soldiers of Zhao state.

The city of Fuyang is not so much a city as a pass. At the beginning, Zhao Zilong used the special terrain of Fuyang to resist Lu Bu's army for more than a year. Today, Fuyang City has become an obstacle for the Tang army.

As early as the first day of his arrival in Fuyang, Huang Xu had already sent someone quietly from the North Bank of the river outside the south city to the west of Wuyuan to meet with Tian Yubu, telling himself that the main purpose of his army's arrival was to get in touch with Luoyang. Then it was to discuss with Tian Yu the arrangement of the whole war situation.

It's a pity that Tian Yu hasn't sent the news of Luoyang, but Huang Xu has received the news from Qiangyin. The flag of Lv Bu, king of Zhao, appeared on the Great Wall pass to the south of Qiangyin.

After getting the news, Huang Xu arranges Qiangyin's troops to evacuate quickly, and all of them withdraw into Yunzhong city. At the same time, he immediately sends troops to contact Tian Yu again to inform Lv Bu of the news of his troops going north.

A few days later, with the close attention of the generals of the Tang Dynasty, Lv Bu's army finally appeared in the cloud. Huang Xu was surprised that Lv Bu only came with more than ten thousand cavalry, but Cao Xing's infantry didn't go with him.

In Yunzhong City, on the west wall of the city tower, Huang Xu led a group of generals are quietly looking at more than ten thousand Zhao cavalry outside the city. Although there are only more than ten thousand cavalry, their breath is incomparable with their forty thousand cavalry.

Huang Xu believed that even if he sent 20000 cavalry to fight against Lv Bu's army, he would surely lose. If he wanted to fight with him, his 40000 cavalry would still be able to fight against Lv Bu. Of course, the final result would be heavy casualties. If you let Lv Bu see a flaw and take the head of the enemy general among the ten thousand armies, it is estimated that the final result will be a tragic victory.

"Sure enough, it's worthy of being Lu Bu among the people and Chi Mian among the horses..." Huang Xu said, but his eyes swept around the generals. Sure enough, all the generals heard that the Lord's face had changed greatly. "However, even if such a strong cavalry is designed by the king, General Zhao Yun and other generals, it will cause heavy casualties. Today, there are more than 30000 wolf cavalry in Bingzhou, but now there are only more than 10000 soldiers left."

Huang Xu's words shocked the surrounding generals. It's true that Lv Bu's Bingzhou wolf riding is far from its peak. The original 30000 wolf riders have been gradually reduced to more than 10000 in several wars. When people think of this, they can't help but feel refreshed.

"The king once said that Lu Bu's bravery is almost invincible in the world today, especially the cavalry of Lu Bu. Although Lu Bu is brave and the cavalry is strong, they can't drive the cavalry to attack the city. Now we have a strong city, but Lu Bu can't wait for us."

"What's more, the king just needs to put enough pressure on Taiyuan, and Lu Bu will certainly lead the troops to the south. At that time, Bingzhou wolf will be running between the two places, and it's not difficult to break it."

Looking at the look of the generals around him, Huang Xu was also excited and said: "although Lv Bu is strong, we also have general Zhao, general Dian and other world famous generals. In addition, Baima Yicong is also a powerful soldier. We only need to hold Lv Bu and Bingzhou wolf riding. No matter how strong Lv Bu is, we can't go back to heaven."

At this time, Lu Bu had a lot to say. Despite the opposition of Chen Gong, he led his troops to the north to support Cao Xing. He hoped that after joining with Cao Xing, he would send troops to wipe out the Tang army who entered the territory of Yunzhong. Then he would join Song Xian's and Zhang Liao's troops to fight against Tian Yu's troops, control the situation in the north of Bingzhou, and then return to the south to fight against Huangfu Chaobo's army .

However, the reality is very cruel. Let alone Cao Xing, he has only gathered more than ten thousand soldiers, even if he has more than ten thousand soldiers under his command, he has only twenty or thirty thousand soldiers. But now the Tang army has controlled the largest city in the cloud, and he still guards according to the city, which makes Lv Bu like a mouse pulling a tortoise.After a day's delay under the Cloud City, Lu Bu had to order Cao Xing to continue to guard the Great Wall pass, but he himself led Bingzhou wolf riding to the west to join the army of song Xianbu.

In the city of Fuyang, the morale of Zhao's officers and men has declined. The reason is that tens of thousands of Tang cavalry suddenly appeared in the east of Fuyang a few days ago. Before that, there had been several Tang troops in the west of Fuyang. Although they did not attack Fuyang, the senior generals in the army knew that there were many other cities in the West except Guangmu, which was guarded by Zhang Liao The cities should have been captured by the Tang army.

The appearance of the majority of the Tang army in Yunzhong made the officers and men in the city know that they might have become a lone army. Although ordinary soldiers didn't know it, the generals in the army knew it well. Now, in the whole territory of Shuofang and Shuofang counties in Yunzhong, except for their 30000 troops, the other cities are basically empty cities.

Now tens of thousands of cavalry of Tang army suddenly appear in the cloud, and the cities in the cloud basically have no resistance. More importantly, the county city in the cloud, Yunzhong City, has accumulated a lot of food and grass materials. If there were not enough food and grass for 30000 troops in Fuyang City for several months, the morale of the army in Fuyang City would be more unstable.

In Fuyang City, Song Xian is now in a bit of a mess. Since tens of thousands of Tang cavalry appeared in the eastern cloud a few days ago, Song Xian knew that his trouble had come. Although he didn't know whether the general surnamed Huang was Huang Zhong or Huang Xu, he knew that since tens of thousands of cavalry appeared, it means that Yunzhong city might not be protected.

Now he has become a lone army. Although he can't confirm whether Guangmu city has been captured by the Tang army, he knows that his 30000 troops are likely to be encircled and annihilated by the Tang army in Fuyang City.

Fortunately, there is enough food and equipment in the city, otherwise there will be no confidence to keep it.

In the past few days, Song Xian tried his best to appease the soldiers in the city. Now his morale is basically stable, but he knows that if there are no other variables, the fall of Fuyang City will be sooner or later.

However, just when the Song Dynasty was flourishing, the turning point suddenly appeared. The cavalry of Tang army, who had been swaggering under the city for several days, suddenly disappeared overnight. Just as Song Xian was in shock, the flag of Lv Bu, king of Zhao, suddenly appeared in the wilderness to the west of the city.

The arrival of Lu Bu has greatly boosted the morale of the Zhao army in Fuyang City, but that's all. Today, among the five original counties in Yunzhong, the Tang army has more than 100000 troops, including 50000 cavalry troops. However, the Zhao army has only Guangmu and Fuyang cities, and the number of troops and horses plus Lu Bu's 10000 cavalry troops is only 60000.

There is a big difference in strength, even after the confluence of Lu Bu and Zhang Liao, they are still helpless. Moreover, at this time, hundreds of thousands of Tang troops were basically huddled in several big cities and did not go out to fight with Lu Bu, which made Lu Bu very angry.
