Silver Beach City.
Liu Zheng, Qingyang Shuo, Qin Changfeng, Jiang Xuan, Pei Qianyun and others were already gathered in front of the sand table, discussing in full swing.
"I didn't expect that Sun Xiang would surrender. Hahaha, what a coward!"
Jiang Xuan laughed.
Liu Zheng smiled and said: "The King of Shu kept his promise and did not harm the people in the city. But if this happens, the people of Hanzhong will be unstable..."
Jiang Xuan said excitedly: "This is the result we want. Hanzhong cannot resist it, so we can only ask for help from Yinzhou!"
Everyone laughed.
At the same time, he was once again shocked by Qingyang Shuo's plan.
A gift list is like a key that breaks the hatred between Shuzhong and Hanzhong for so many years. This person's skill in planning has reached the level of perfection.
Qingyang Shuo said humbly: "Actually, the two places have had a long-standing grudge, which is the highest in the Longyan Dynasty. We only wait for the death of the current emperor, and I am afraid that it will lead to a war of embezzlement. Therefore, this time, the young master can be considered saved. This happened to Hanzhong."
Liu Zheng asked curiously: "Sir, you think Hanzhong is not capable of fighting?"
Qingyang Shuo smiled and said: "With the power of one battle, how can we defend Hanzhong? The territory of Shu is vast and rich, with many soldiers and generals, and sufficient food and grass. We can go north to Jinghua, south to Shuzhou, east to Wuguan, Jingzhou, and west to Yinzhou. There are thoroughfares to several states. , can lead to prosperity in prosperous times, but it can also lead to chaos in times of public criticism! Even if Shuzhou does not attack, how can others leave Hanzhong alone?"
Everyone nodded in agreement.
In fact, the so-called attempt to seize Hanzhong this time does not mean that Hanzhong can truly be annexed. Although Liu Zheng is not a vassal king, if you annex a small county like Yangzhou or Kezhou, it will be fine if you manage it well. If you really want to annex Hanzhong, I am afraid that not only the imperial court but also the whole world will not agree.
so.
Qingyang Shuo's plan was to lure Shuzhou and attack Hanzhong. If Hanzhong was defeated, he would ask for help from his "in-laws" Yinzhou. Once the reinforcements settled in Hanzhong, he could propose to establish a "military base" belonging to Yinzhou in Hanzhong.
Until then……
With the development of Yinzhou, what about Hanzhong? Isn’t it Yinzhou’s control?
Liu Zheng added: "It has been half a month since the conflict broke out. The imperial court only reprimanded them and did not do much."
Qingyang Shuo laughed and said: "The Holy One is obsessed with immortality and wants to live forever, and his physical condition is extremely unstable. What's more, the vassal king is so powerful that it is so difficult to defeat the Huns, so how can he make big moves?"
Everyone sighed and was worried.
The current imperial court is indeed very old.
Liu Zheng asked again: "Sir, if the Holy One dies, what will happen to Yinzhou?"
Qingyang Shuo's eyes flashed: "If Yinzhou can garrison Hanzhong, it can protect itself!"
"If the Holy One dies, the world will be in chaos."
"The first places to bear the brunt are Hanzhong and Qingzhou!"
"What?"
Liu Zheng looked confused.
The geographical location of Hanzhong has become the target of public criticism, so that's all. Why did King Wei of Qingzhou, the number one vassal king in the world, bear the brunt of the attack? But then, he reacted.
Shoot the first bird!
It is precisely because the power of King Wei is too great. If the world is really in chaos, he will definitely become a thorn in the eyes and flesh of other vassal kings! If one vassal king can't defeat you, what about the two? If two can't defeat you, what about the three?
Liu Zheng suddenly remembered the history of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
At that time, in every vassal state and every boss that dominated the hegemony, how could there be anyone who was immortal?
Zheng, Song, Jin, Qi, Wei, Zhao, and Chu were all once extremely glorious, but they were all killed by other countries because they were too high-profile.
The only one who is the boss until the end is Qin.
But Liu Zheng knew that the Qin State had also encountered the "Big Boss Crisis" back then, but the Qin State might really have been destined by fate. Just when the Big Boss Crisis was about to begin, the Battle of Huayang suddenly came. In the Battle of Huayang, Bai Qi became a god and killed 150,000 of the Wei and Zhao coalition forces, completely opening the door for Qin to go east. From then on, the Qin cavalry began to sweep across the six countries, and no one could stop it.
"Sir, you are worthy of being taught!"
Liu Zheng fell to the ground again against Qingyang Shuo.
Qingyang Shuo said calmly: "The battle of Hanzhong attracted the attention of the whole world, but the Shu army was capable, and the king of Shu, Xie Mao, was proficient in military arts and was famous at a young age. King Yong was good at internal affairs, not good at military affairs, and he had no generals under his banner. At most, in one month, Hanzhong Then only the lonely city is left."
As he spoke, he explained with his hands on the sand table.
Several people listened with great interest and were quite fascinated.
The fortresses, checkpoints, ports, official roads, and crossbow towers around Hanzhong were all accounted for by Qingyang Shuo.
war……
At this time, it has become an art here in Qingyangshuo.
When talking about the wonderful points, several people suddenly felt enlightened and enlightened.
Qingyang Shuo laughed and said: "The King of Shu must first cut off the Liu Pass, seal the pass, and cut off the reinforcements at the city port, in order to close the door and beat the dog. By then, there will be only one passage left in the isolated city of Hanzhong, and that is this Uptown Harbor!”
Several people took a deep breath at the same time.
Shangcheng Port is the closest to Yinzhou!
Qingyang Shuo's calculation from beginning to end is here!
"Young master, you should not pretend to be low-key. You should appear in a high-profile manner, and you must destroy everything to promote the name of Yinzhou."
"If not..."
Qingyang Shuo looked at Liu Zheng and sighed: "The world is really in chaos, I'm afraid that you don't have enough background."
Liu Zheng was very excited: "What you said is absolutely true."
…
The Shu army's 200,000 troops have been besieging the city for half a month.
The army in Shuzhong, mostly with swordsmen and infantry, equipped with siege equipment, throwing stones, and giant trees, has attacked the Hanzhong city gate dozens of times.
The strength of the Hanzhong city is naturally famous throughout the world. What's more, the Hanzhong army here is 200,000 to defend the city, and the Shu army is 200,000 to attack the city. It is really not easy to knock on the door of Hanzhong so quickly.
But despite this, the Shu army still had the upper hand in morale.
This is the habitual fear that the Hanzhong Army has had towards the Shu Army over the years.
The rest is the arrangement of troops by the King of Shu, which can be said to be quite sophisticated. They first laid siege to the city for a few days, pretending to attack the city gate, but sent their soldiers to seize key parts of Hanzhong one by one, including three ports, four official roads, five fortresses, and seven watchtowers.
It can be said that after half a month, only an isolated city was left in Hanzhong.
King Yong has issued an order that Anding County, Jiangyang County, and Hanyang County in Hanzhong are temporarily stationary and waiting for dispatch. In fact, after Wudu fell, whether these counties could come to help was no longer so important. If you come, you will fall into the Shu army's trap.
King Yong is waiting.
This guy who seemed fatuous in the past has also shown his sophistication in this war.
Facing the menacing Shu army, he seemed very calm and calm.
One hundred thousand soldiers will guard the remaining key points in Hanzhong at this time. One hundred thousand soldiers will take the initiative to attack in an attempt to regain the lost official roads. If they succeed, reinforcements will come again. Hanzhong will have natural dangers to live in, and there will be enough food and grass in the city, so there will be no fear. The Shu army besieged the city.
The people in the city were still in a good mood at this time.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
King Yong was dressed in military uniform. Although he looked nondescript, when he appeared on the city wall, his morale was immediately boosted.
"how?"
"My lord, seal the pass. We just captured it and lost it again!"
King Yong's face darkened: "Fight, keep hitting me! No matter how much the loss is, the seal must be taken back by Gu Gu!"
"yes!"
All the soldiers also knew that this pass leads directly to Anding County, and then to Jinghua.
King Yong was not only waiting for news from the court, he was also waiting for the 50,000 reinforcements from Anding County!
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Liu Guan has been lost again!"
Someone else came to report.
"What?"
King Yong was so angry that he was shaking all over: "Trash, a bunch of trash!"
Sikong Zhen sighed at the side: "Your Majesty, Wudu has surrendered. The army is demoralized and only wants to protect itself. If this continues, I'm afraid..."
King Yong said angrily: "Do you really think that King Shu has good intentions?"
"Wudu is just trying to be mysterious and mess up the morale of the army. If Hanzhong is captured by him, the whole city will be looted by him. Even Wudu, he will go back and start over. Who doesn't know the greed of this old man! "
Sikong Zhen looked bitter: "But Your Majesty, there is no news from the court... It's better than us, it's better..."
King Yong's eyes turned cold: "Why not?"
Everyone said in unison: "Your Majesty, let's ask for help!"
"Your Majesty, if this continues, in just three days, I'm afraid we can only save one port!"
"Your Majesty!"
"My lord, make up your mind early!"
Everyone knelt down and worshiped.
