Chapter 55 Different(1/2)

"Our camp general wants to ask the governor to send troops to Wuzhou, one is to save the people of Wuzhou, and the other is to stop Sinuoluo from going south..."

After hearing this, Sun Renxian immediately glanced on the map and asked, "Is your Blood Camp surrounded Wei and saved Zhao? No, it's a little different."

It is very similar to the siege of Wei to save Zhao, but it also seems different. At least Xinuoluo would not chase the Blood Camp because of jealousy like Pang Juan. So is it a siege point to attack the aid? It is very similar, not a siege point to attack the aid point. The aid point to attack the aid point is set up an ambush near the point, so why did he send lobbyists to Songzhou?

But Song Yian was very happy. Governor Sun was indeed a skill, and he could think of many things with just one word. If he was just a false reputation and could not resist the attack of the Tubo people, the target he came this time would not be very meaningful.

But he kept hesitating when he saw Sun Renxian's face.

Songzhou is just a governor's office, and his responsibilities are only Songzhou. Either the war is coming, he can coordinate the situation, Xi, Jing, Zhe, Gong and other small Dandans are trapped in Mizhou. Not to mention Weizhou, he has no right to send troops even to Fuzhou. Of course, the imperial court issued an imperial edict, which is the same thing.

And why did Sun Renxian sneer at Song Yian? Although Zong Chuke did not transfer many soldiers in Songzhou, he also mobilized a small number of them. Almost no one came back. This also weakened the military power of Songzhou.

But the opponent has nearly 90,000 elite Tubo soldiers. How can I stop him?

Another point is that Wufu Dao is not Baoxi Road, Ziwu Road, the old way, and Tangluo Road. Just find a few dangerous places to defend, and all the problems will be solved. Although the terrain is not as flat as the Central Plains, there is no fatal natural danger to hold.

Then defending Wuzhou is not as simple as defending one state city. The three counties of Wuzhou must defend all of them, making Li County and Pandi County slightly better. Pandi County is the best, with its back against Pandi Mountain, but Fujin County in the northwest is the first to bear the brunt.

These three counties are not large, and the total population of Fujin County is only 6,700 or 7,000 people. There are only 1,000 people in the county town and less than 200 households. To put it bluntly, a palace in the palace is larger than that of the county town. If 3,500 Tubo soldiers come, they can be strong for a few days. But if they don’t come, they will be able to come in. Once Tubo comes, they will be in units of ten thousand. Even if they use people to pile up, they will level the small Fujin County town.

Song Yian suddenly lay on the ground and said, "If the Grand Commander can block the Tubo people from Wuzhou, our camp will leave the people and property captured by Tubo and return it to the states. In the past, General Chen Tang said that those who offend our Han Dynasty will be punished even if they are far away. Today, Tubo has come to us to bully China, burn, kill, and rob, and if there is no one in the land. No matter who is right or wrong, the overall situation is the priority. It is also the bloody governor of a nation. Please think twice."

Many people in the Tang Dynasty were still proud of the powerful Han Dynasty, and many poets also called themselves Han people.

Although Sima Qian made many criticisms of Emperor Wu of Han in history books because he let Emperor Wu of Han cut off the little **, Sima Guang was also an infighting expert and conservative element, and once again magnified the destruction of Emperor Wu of Han in a infinite way. However, it was precisely because of Emperor Wu of Han's military expansion that the Xiongnu declined, allowing future generations to enjoy hundreds of years of glory.

Therefore, when Sun Renxian heard Chen Tang's words, he was also excited.

But he still did not agree. This thing cannot be considered with passion. His soldiers could barely gather thousands of people. How to fight against the arrival of tens of thousands of Tubo troops?

He shook his head: "It's not that I'm disgusted with your camp, it's that I have the heart and lack the strength. I'm sorry to obey my fate."

Song Yian stood up and said, "Can the Grand Governor accompany me out of the city? Our camp has two gifts for the Grand Governor."

"What gift?"

"Four thousand prisoners of war, three thousand longbows."

Tubo is not sure about the longbow, but through the Dibao, he already knew the benefits of this new weapon at the level of Sun Renxian. He was happy to hear that regardless of whether he was working hard or not, with these three thousand longbows, it would be a powerful weapon to defend the city in the future. And if it was well organized, it would be possible that such archers could be used to deal with cavalry, and the power might be no less than that of Modao Camp.

But he also neglected a little. Its power is no less than that of Modao Camp, but its requirements are higher than that of Mowan Camp. Without arm strength, don’t touch such a longbow. Just barely pull it open. What’s the use of shooting one or two arrows?

But the previous sentence puzzled him. This time, only one thousand soldiers were drawn from Songzhou, but no one came back. Sun Renxian was worried about this matter. But the four thousand prisoners of war came? In fact, this was a intentional arrangement by Wang Hua. If you want Sun Ren to contribute, you must first let him breathe. Therefore, the first batch of prisoners of war were returned to Sun Renxian.

However, Songzhou's power was still a little weak, so nearly a thousand prisoners of war captured in Songzhou were gathered together, intending to release the wind, and the soldiers from Songzhou were immediately released and returned home. So many soldiers pretended to be soldiers drawn by Songzhou.

Wang Hua knew this very well, but pretended not to know it, and selected more than 3,000 strong soldiers again, and dressed up all the way and came outside Songzhou City. It was not easy, because the two Taodi Prefectures were lost and Dangzhou was besieged by the Tubo people. Fortunately, Tubo mainly seized the captive, not the city and the land was trapped, so there was no blockade.

These four thousand soldiers were used to show off their strength to Sun Ren. But there could not be too many, too many, and Sun Renxian dared not accept it, for fear that some people in the court would think that Wang Hua was colluding with him. So this number was also wonderful.

When he came outside the city and looked at these big men, Sun Renxian smiled.

Not only are there longbows, but there are some other weapons and armor, but they don’t bring too much. After all, too many will attract attention.

Although Sun Renxian was laughing, he also admired Wang Hua's desire for his destiny. Wang Hua also expected that his strength was too weak, which was to enrich his strength. Moreover, this number was even more destiny. If he strengthened his strength, he would not attract suspicion from the court.

Song Yian said again: "And the Grand Commander does not take too long. At most, our Blood Camp will make some arrangements, and the Tubo army will automatically retreat at that time."

There was no clear explanation, but through various signs, Sun Renxian had already guessed what Wang Hua intended, which was intentionally forcing Tubo to walk on the Dixi Road or Taozhou Road, and then set up an ambush in the middle.

Sun Renxian was still a little hesitant. Now that the court has brought wolves into the house, more and more people have vaguely guessed that this is a major scandal in the court. If we can send troops to defend Wuzhou, although it is beyond the authority, it will be helpful to the current low morale of the court. If we make contributions, the court will also be happy. Of course, we cannot get too close to Wang Hua.

But if you fail, you will be overpowering. With the use of a long bow, you will be able to imagine your fate.

At this time, Song Yian once again threw out a trump card.

He said, "Governor Sun, have you heard of why Cao Cen failed?"

Sun Renxian nodded. He also made an analysis of the failure this time. It was not the smoke screen, but mainly the harassment tactics at the beginning. It made Cao Cen's soldiers feel depressed and physically exhausted. The scouts could not be sent out, which eventually led to a great defeat.

So he was not surprised when he heard that Wang Hua was going to attack the Sinuoluo army. The combat power of the soldiers in the Blood Camp was too strong.

Song Yian said again: "Grandmaster, in order to cooperate with the Grandmaster to defend the city, our blood camp may send 1,000 to 2,000 soldiers to harass the Tubo army day and night."

"Oh?" Sun Renxian was delighted.

In fact, this tactic requires the terrain to be wide and flat. The terrain of Wuzhou is not very ideal. Even if you send powerful scouts to harass you, the effect will not be very obvious. Moreover, there is no powerful force behind you to respond.

But Sun Renxian only heard about this tactic through the newspaper, but he did not see the actual scene. So he expanded its role infinitely in his heart.

After pondering for a long time, Sun Renxian finally nodded.

Of course, this battle was a big gamble for him.

However, the Blood Camp would not let him fail, but he dare not reveal the specific details to him that he should not have the intention to harm others, and he should be wary of others, so he had to let Song Yian persuade him step by step.

The Songzhou army finally left Wuzhou, and the Battle of Jieting on the other side also began.

The Qinzhou defense war started earlier than the Battle of Jieting.

If it were the original, the people of Qinzhou would have lost confidence. It is possible that when the Tubo people came in front, Tao Hanming and his subordinates threw themselves down the city and ran away without caring about it.

But now because of the support of the Blood Camp, I felt a little confident in my heart, even though Xue Song's strange defense made him uneasy.

So the opponent claimed that the court had sent 100,000 troops to conquer Tubo, and 10,000 vanguard troops arrived at Jieting. The 100,000 troops did not see it. In fact, the court was already discussing and preparing to withdraw 50,000 soldiers from Chang'an to guard Longyou, not only to deal with Tubo and prevent the situation from deteriorating further, but also to prevent the blood camp from annexing several states in Qinjing and even Chang'an. However, these troops were still being summoned. When they arrived in Qinzhou, they still didn't know whether ten or eight days would be left.

But there were troops in Jieting, and many officials in Qinzhou still knew about it, but they didn't know that they were the Blood Camp. If they knew they were the Blood Camp soldiers, they might have a little more confidence. However, through the verification of these officials, the poor seven or eight thousand miscellaneous soldiers collected from the city also had some confidence in their hearts.

Moreover, since he had defended the city, Xue Song had contacted Tao Hanming and told him that there must be a brave man under heavy rewards. This time, the land passed by Tubo was unstoppable. If Tao envoys, you could defend Qinzhou, how would the court reward you?

First of all, you have to fool Tao Hanming into a boiling blood.

Then he said, if the city is broken, all the property in Qinzhou will be washed away. In this way, why not take them out and reward the warriors?

Therefore, before the battle was fought, a batch of property was rewarded, and then there were various rewards when defending. In this way, although it was a miscellaneous army led by an outsider, its combat power was very low, but its morale was high, so it could barely fight. Moreover, a close aide under Tao Hanming came up with another idea, asking Tao Hanming to ask for someone from the Blood Camp.

If you want an expert, just keep silent. A person will not take the city, but this expert will increase the defense strength.

This staff member is very clear-headed. If Tao Hanming is asked to command himself, the result may be very bad.

This idea is not very clever, but it plays a crucial role in the entire battle situation.

Xue Song was very happy when he heard this, but now everyone is a "friendly army", so he really sent an experienced veteran, a meritorious soldier who participated in the Blood Camp in Chang'an a few years ago. Now his regiment commander, Niu Sanli, arrived in Qinzhou.

Not a group of sheep led by a lion. Niu Sanli has not reached this height yet, but it is also a wolf and a group of sheep.

When Niu Sanli came to Qinzhou, he gave him a short time and could not dispatch troops and had no way to dispatch troops and no one knew what everyone was doing. But he quickly hung Tao Hanming's sign, directing the soldiers to how to set up defenses and where the various equipment were placed. After a while, he became orderly from the chaos.

This made Tao Hanming very impressed, but he didn't know that this was just a preliminary thing. Even many generals captured by Wang Hua this time could do this, but it was better than the situation just now.

As soon as he settled down, Sinuoluo led the army.

Nearly 50,000 troops, as Xue Song said, were divided into two groups, one led by Tigule and rushed to Jieting, and the remaining troops came to the city of Qinzhou.

Looking at the army that could not see the edge of the world, just like the novel written by Gu Long, it seemed to have murderous aura and soared into the sky. Tao Hanming was once again scared.

If he hadn't considered his image, he might have started to tremble on both legs.

Niu Sanli stood beside him and said, "How many soldiers did Zong Chuke attack Lanzhou City?"

"At 150,000."

"But how many defenders were in Lanzhou City?"

Tao Hanming shook his head.

"The regular army is only 2,000, plus 3,000 ordinary people. How many soldiers are there in Qinzhou City now? Besides, our blood camp 5,000 troops are responding on the side of Jieting. What are you afraid of?"

Tao Hanming thought to himself, although you have fewer people, can the combat effectiveness of my soldiers be compared with your blood camp? But he couldn't say it out. He shook his head and said, "I'm not afraid."

In fact, my teeth started to tremble.

Niu Sanli said a few words in his ear. Tao Hanming's eyes lit up and he turned around to look at the soldiers on the top of the city. Everyone was trembling with their legs.

Tao Hanming bowed deeply to the soldiers and said, "Just just now, the imperial army will arrive in Qinzhou within three days. In these three days, tens of thousands of fellow villagers, as well as your relatives, wives, children, and young people in Qinzhou City will be handed over to you."

As he said that, he leaned down again and gave a big gift.

Then someone took out money and silk again, and each person rewarded one shovel and ten pieces of silk.

This is the idea that Niu Sanli just came up with, which is a strong morale of soldiers. As long as you pass this level and fight immediately, everyone will adapt to it. The difficulty lies in the beginning. Therefore, you need to practice in the blood camp training, which is the reason.

Then he sent people to the city to promote the people, what would the impact of the Tubo people attacking the city, and asked them to join the war spontaneously.

Sinuoluo came to the city of Qinzhou and began to attack the city. He was also a little careless. The place where he passed was almost smooth because of the lack of soldiers and generals. As soon as the war drum sounded, several sprints came down, and all the city cards were broken together.

But at the beginning, he was hit by the head, and countless arrows fell, and the rolling stones and wood also hit the city like they didn't have money. Although it was obvious that it was a group of new recruits at a glance, otherwise the hit rate would not be that low.

But the Tubo people were not prepared and fell down three or four hundred people.

There was a lot of cheers on the top of the city.

This was the one who shot the Tubo people with his own hands, and the governor rewarded him generously. Before the war, he said that every time a Tubo person was killed, he would be rewarded with five coins. Although Tao Hanming dared not touch too much money in the state, Xue Song had promised before that after the war, Wang Hua gave him 20,000 coins to fill the gap more or less for him.

This attack failed to surprise Sinuoluo, but as the battle began to become tragic, Sinuoluo became serious.

Although the defenders on the top of the city were also red in their eyes and showed their morale, soldiers continued to die heroically due to lack of experience and combat effectiveness.

But this time, this little idea from Tao Hanming's staff played an extremely important role. If it weren't for Niu Sanli's arrival, it might be possible that Qinzhou City, if Wang Hua asked Xue Song to cheer up himself, he would have unexpectedly lost it.

The battle at Jieting on the other side was also kicked off.

Tigule led a 10,000 Tubo army to Jieting. After all, Sinuoluo underestimated the enemy this time. Tigule was not an outstanding general under Sinuoluo. His strength was that he was a Qiang person. He grew up in the border between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo. He was familiar with the people of the Tang Dynasty. He also knew a lot of Chinese characters from the Tang Dynasty and read some books from the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, Sinuoluo asked him to come to Jieting in the hope that through his familiarity with the Tang Dynasty, he used Jieting to block the exits on both sides of the northeastern Qinzhou to increase the harvest.
