Yang Jian was very sober at this time. Most of the soldiers under Yang Xutuo were second-line troops such as county soldiers, or new soldiers who were recruited one after another after the war started.
With the combat power of this part of the army, it is impossible to take Xiao Guan back from the elite Jin army. He might even be beaten down by Xiao Guan's elite Jin army. Those second-line troops such as county soldiers or new soldiers would definitely be defeated in the face of Feng Yi's elite cavalry.
Instead of doing this, it would be better to save your strength to hold on.
"Zuo Tiancheng, you will immediately send 30,000 soldiers and horses to support General Zhang Xutuo, and listen to the orders under General Zhang Xutuo's tent!" Yang Jian looked at the generals in the tent, and finally, his eyes rested on an imposing man. On the general.
"General, take your orders!" Zuo Tiancheng clasped his hands and replied to Yang Jian with great determination.
Zuo Tiancheng, the commander of the Golden Sword Palace, is Yang Jian's favorite general. Courageous and resourceful, he has the ability to charge into battle, he is also strict in running the army, and he occasionally has strange plans. The key is that Zuo Tiancheng is loyal enough to Yang Jian. It is precisely because of this that Yang Jian handed over this task to Zuo Tiancheng.
At the same time, after Yang Jian sent Zuo Tiancheng to support Zhang Xutuo, he no longer stayed in Tongguan. After leaving the affairs to Yang Su and Yang Lin, Yang Jian quickly returned to Chang'an.
Previously, in the entire Yongzhou, Tongguan was the only place where war broke out. It was not a problem for Yang Jian to come to Tongguan to take charge at that time.
But the situation is different now. The east and west fronts of Yongzhou are at war at the same time. At this time, it is most appropriate for Yang Jian to go to Chang'an Juzhong to command and dispatch.
If Yang Jian continues to stay in Tongguan, once something goes wrong with Zhang Xutuo in Qian County, it will definitely take more time to reach Yang Jian. The battlefield is changing rapidly, and it is very likely that this period of time will lead to a huge war. Different directions.
Moreover, there were also problems in Chang'an that Yang Jian had to deal with. The previous massacres of the Dong family by Emperor Xian Liu Xie and Yang Yong all needed to be dealt with by Yang Jian.
Especially Liu Xie, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty. After Yang Jian went to Tongguan, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty took more and more actions in private. The invasion of Jin King Li Xiang's army and the defeat of various princes in Liangzhou also gave many people in Chang'an City some different ideas.
Therefore, Yang Jian must now go back and sort out Chang'an again. It would be funny if one's own base camp was disrupted first when foreign enemies were pressing on the territory.
Outside Tongguan, the Jin army camp.
Shortly after Yang Jian received the news of the fall of Xiaoguan, Li Xiang also received the news. Unlike Yang Jian's forces in Tongguan who were worried, Li Xiang's generals, large and small, were overjoyed. After several months, the situation of the war finally changed.
Next, Li Xiang had received the news that Yang Jian ordered Zuo Tian to send 30,000 troops to support the western part of Yongzhou. After receiving this news, after discussing with all the counselors, Li Xiang immediately decided to attack Tongguan again.
Moreover, this time Li Xiang not only used the prisoner army, this time, the main force of the Jin army also began to participate.
Counting the surrender troops sent by Xue Rengui and Wang Meng, Li Xiang has formed a prisoner army of at least 60,000 people. After this period of time, half of the people had fallen under Tongguan.
With such huge casualties, Li Xiang's attempts to boost morale didn't work very well. Moreover, Li Xiang cannot push these people too hard, otherwise, causing mutiny is not a good thing.
It is precisely because of this that it is now time for the real elite of the Jin army to take action.
Tongguan is different from Hangu Pass. Although Tongguan is dangerous, it is not a narrow pass that can be opened by one man. Tens of thousands of men cannot open the narrow pass and must be defended by a large army. If there are too few troops, Tongguan will no longer be an unbreakable strong pass.
Precisely because Tongguan has such characteristics, if Li Xiang keeps pressing Tongguan with his army and assumes a posture that he must break through Tongguan and enter the middle of the pass, most of Yang Jian's attention will inevitably be firmly attracted to the defense of Tongguan. Coupled with the situation at Xiaoguan, Yang Jian's mind must be completely consumed in these two places.
In the same way, after dividing Zuo Tiancheng's force, even if something went wrong elsewhere in Yongzhou, Yang Jian would not be able to send troops from Tongguan to support him again.
Only by attracting Yang Jian's attention can the Jin army elsewhere have the opportunity to take action.
Chang'an, the palace of the Sui Dynasty.
"Forget it, please step back first!" Yang Jian looked at his eldest son, Yang Yong, who was kneeling on the ground carefully for a long time, then finally sighed and said helplessly.
Hearing that Yang Jian actually wanted to retreat, Yang Yong felt a thump in his heart. He raised his head and wanted to say something, but Yang Jian glared at him and suppressed him. In the end, I could only cautiously retreat for now.
The second son Yang Guang on the side was secretly happy when he saw this. Sometimes, the cost of not punishing him was much more serious than punishing him severely. Because sometimes, not punishing someone after making a mistake means more disappointment.
"Brother, big brother, this time it's your own fault!" Yang Guang sneered lightly in his heart.
In this incident, since Yang Jian returned to Chang'an, Yang Guang had put in a lot of effort to achieve today's scene. If Yang Guang hadn't done something behind the scenes, I'm afraid Yang Jian wouldn't be disappointed in his eldest son Yang Yong so quickly.
Previously, because of the murder of the Dong family, Yang Jian was forced to send Yang Jian to kill his second most powerful general, Wu Wenhua. But for some details of the Dong family's murder, the two letters written by Yang Yong and Yang Guang were not enough to explain everything.
Moreover, Yang Yong's letter was vague in many places in order to hide some things. Although Yang Guang's letter pointed out that Yang Yong was most likely to be plotted by others, Yang Jian still had to investigate it himself. Just feel at ease.
After all, when Yang Guang wrote this letter, although he tried to hide it as much as possible, he still put some subjective colors into it. Naturally, the sophisticated Yang Jian could easily see the problems clearly.
Therefore, after Yang Yong left, although Yang Jian glanced at Yang Guang who was standing beside him calmly, he didn't say much. When the eldest son cannot be reused, it is not necessarily a bad thing for the second son to be somewhat ambitious.
Thinking of what he had discovered before, Yang Jian couldn't help but feel a little more disappointed with his eldest son.
This is clearly someone who wants to use his hands to separate the relationship between Wu Wenhua and the Sui army through the Dong family, so that Yang Jian can cut off his own arm, but his eldest son actually fell into the trap so easily. Before that, he actually Didn't find anything wrong.
