Lord of the House

Vol 11 Chapter 119: Reiyama

Lishan is located at the western foot of Huaishan Mountain. If Wang Xiangzhi was not very effective in governing Chaishan Mountain, Lishan would be the eastern edge of the area controlled by Suizhou.

Lishan is surrounded by hills, forests, ravines, and three fields, especially from Chaishan to Lishan. The mountains are very dangerous. Two years ago, it was hard to imagine that thousands of vehicles could come out from the hinterland of Huaishan so easily.

Lishan guard Luo Wenhu, who also knew Lishan County, was Luo Xiancheng's nephew of the Yuantang clan, and later gave Luo Xiancheng a harvest as his adopted son.

Luo Wenhu read books for a few years, and after Luo Xiancheng's early years of smuggling illicit salt and killing people, he served Zhulian in prison for several years, and then followed Luo Xiancheng to revolt. He is well-rounded in both civil and military affairs. In his early years, he was very trusted and used by Luo Xiancheng, and he had a good relationship with Wang Xiang.

Only because when Luo Xiancheng's two grown-up sons died in battle in the early years, Luo Wenhu lost his temper and said that Luo Xiancheng must be passed on to him, and told Zhong Rong to sue him, and Luo Xiancheng became wary of him from then on. Although he did not completely take away his military power, he also kicked him to Lishan and left the center of the Suizhou army; Luo Wenhu has lived tremblingly in Lishan for the past two years.

Although Chaishan No. 2 pulled grain and grass from Lishan more quickly, Luo Wenhu did not have any doubts: Wang Xiang's political level in these years is obvious to all, if Wang Xiang did not expand the fields, the Changle Army would not have been able to gain a firm foothold in Suizhou. , Chaishan food and grass shipped fast, it only shows that the king is well prepared. From Luo Wenhu's point of view, Wang Xiang saw that Beiyan's troops would be able to take Jingzhou in a few days, and the world was in the hands of Beiyan, so it's not surprising that he intends to reconcile with his uncle Luo Xiancheng...

With today's status, no one will be a stone in a ditch, but a hero who knows the current affairs.

Now that the world is in the hands of Beiyan, and his uncle Luo Xiancheng attached Beiyan to be the king of Xiangyang, Luo Wenhu no longer pays much attention to the title of the king of Xiangyang. Luo Wenhu also wanted to dispel his uncle Luo Xiancheng's wariness of him. Fortunately, when Beiyan went south, he could gain more military exploits. Maybe he could be named a hereditary uncle in the future, and he didn't have to look at his uncle's face in everything.

Luo Wenhu knew that Wang Xiang had spoken ill of his uncle Luo Xiancheng in a letter before the war, but he didn't think much about it, and his uncle Luo Xiancheng could continue to allow Wang Xiang to guard Chaishan. In his opinion, his uncle still valued Wang Xiang very much. Now that Wang Xiang can be resigned, everything is easy to say.

Luo Wenhu also hoped that Wang Xiang and his uncle could have a good word for him after improving. Wang Xiang led the food team to Lishan, but Luo Wenhu went out of the city to meet enthusiastically...

Luo Wenhu, dressed in Confucian clothing, traveled by car, accompanied by dozens of entourages, to the food team that stopped in East Hedong of Lishan City for a while. Meeting with Wang Xiang is also considered to be the best way to fulfill the friendship of the landlord and the old friend.

Wang Xiang accompanied Tang Fuguan to stand under the mulberry tree in Hetangdong, looked at Luo Wenhu who came from a distance by car, and whispered: "Luo Wenhu has no loyalty to Luo Xiancheng, if it can be used by Huaidong, winning Suizhou should be a help... …”

After confirming that Huang Zuyu and Zhou Bin led the troops and horses to pass Zaoyang, regardless of whether Huang Zuyu and Zhou Bin could successfully attack Fancheng, Cao Zi'ang and Zhou Tong led the main force of Chaishan troops to attack Lishan and then Suizhou. There are more changes.

Sending Huang Zuyu and Zhou Bin to attack Fancheng was a dangerous tactic. It was to shut up all the enemy soldiers in Jingxiang and beat them. Cao Ziang led the main force of Chaishan troops to ensure that the development of the entire Jingxiang war would not be separated due to unexpected factors. control.

Tang Fuguan led a brigade of elite troops, disguised as rations, soldiers and horses, as well as civilian husbands and Wang Xiang. Cao Zi'ang, Zhou Tong and Sun Zhuang led the Chongcheng army and the main force of the third cavalry brigade, which had also entered the territory of Lishan.

It’s just that Luo Wenhu never thought that there would be a problem with Chaishan in the east of Lishan.

Don't say that the main force of Chaishan's troops is still some distance away from Lishan. With Luo Wenhu's vigilance at this time, I am afraid that 40,000 soldiers and horses are close to Lishan City ten miles, and Luo Wenhu may not be aware of it.

Tang Fuguan considered Wang Xiang's suggestion and thought that it would not be difficult to take Lishan. Luo Wenhu had more than 3,000 miscellaneous soldiers in Lishan. The city of Lishan was short and had no moat. There would not be too many problems in a hard attack. The key Or how to fight Suizhou...

Suizhou City is Luo Xiancheng's old nest, and Luo Xiancheng has also devoted himself to running Suizhou City over the years.

Not to mention that the city of Suizhou is very dangerous and the city is deep and heavy, Luo Xiancheng still kept his 10,000 elite soldiers in Suizhou to guard the old nest when the troops on the north and south lines were in short supply.

Huang Zuyu and Zhou Bin will not delay their surprise attack on Fancheng this morning at the latest. And now they are disguised as a grain transport team. Even if they don't fight Lishan, but rush to attack Suizhou, they still need to walk for another two days. I hope that after two days, Suizhou will not be alert to the changes in Fancheng. Reality.

If Luo Wenhu is willing to cooperate, then there will be more choices for the strategies that Suizhou can use.

Tang Fu pondered for a while, and said, "Then please Mr. Wang to stabilize Luo Wenhu first, if it really can't be detained first, I will send someone to ask Cao Shuai..."

Although Luo Wenhu was neglected by Luo Xiancheng, he was also the core figure of the Suizhou Army. Whether he could be forgiven for his crimes and win him over to serve, it was up to Cao Ziang to make a decision.

****************

The soldiers and horses moved forward slowly. Wang Xiang and Luo Wenhu learned from ancient times, and found a secluded place in the north of Hetang. They spread cloth under the mulberry tree as a table, set up pots and feasts, waited by servants on the left and right, and talked about literary affairs. , also very enjoyable.

Unknowingly, the sun slanted westward, Tang Fuguan walked over in his armor, clasped his fists towards the king and said, "The grain team has passed the Qianzha River, it's getting late, and we have to rush to Suizhou at night, are we going to catch up? team?"

Luo Wenhu had a lot of alcohol. After drinking it for a long time, he was only slightly intoxicated. When he stood up, he saw a lot of armored soldiers on the left and right. He surrounded them faintly, pointed at these armored soldiers and smiled at Wang Xiang: "Wang Xiang, you are getting more and more courageous. The younger you are, the more soldiers you need to protect you after a night walk..." He summoned the accompanying servants and prepared to go back to Lishan City.

Luo Wenhu deliberately led Wang Xiang to a low-lying place to drink and drink, not to mention the armored soldiers who could only stand up around to see, he had not yet seen that the troops and horses transporting grain had actually formed a faint siege of Lishan City.

"Oh, before leaving Lishan, there is a distinguished guest who wants to introduce Wen Hu to meet Wen Hu. Can Wen Hu delay the meeting for a while?" Wang Xiang asked.

"who?"

At this moment, dozens of fast horses came, Cao Ziang jumped off the horse, looked at Luo Wenhu, and asked Wang Xiang: "This is Lishan Luo Wenhu?"

Luo Wenhu seems to be wearing silver-lined armor with fine scales, and he is very imposing. If such a character is in the Suizhou army, he cannot fail to know him. Looking at the dozens of cavalry soldiers who came along with him, they should be stalwarts, all of them sturdy. Brave, tall and splendid when he stepped off the war horse—Luo Wenhu's little sense of alcohol was also awake at this time. He subconsciously held down the saber at his waist and asked, "Who are you?"

Luo Wenhu couldn't bear to struggle, the soldiers on the left and right had already rushed up to disarm Luo Wenhu and his entourage. Cao Zi'ang looked at Luo Wenhu and said lightly, "I'm Cao Zi'ang, you must have heard my name in Lishan..."

Luo Wenhu stood there dumbfounded, Lin Fu envoy Cao Zi'ang to guard Luzhou, and there were 30,000 elites in Huaidong who were controlled by him in Luzhou, and they were definitely the real power figures in the Huaidong family.

At this time, Cao Zi'ang was not sitting in Luzhou, nor was Lin Fu's side to make plans, but suddenly appeared in Lishan, suddenly stood in front of him, and stood with Wang Xiang...

Even if Luo Wenhu is a fool, he knows that Wang Xiang has already defected to Huaidong, and he leads Huaidong's troops to sneak in from Chaishan!

Luo Wenhu fought a cold war, as if he was awakened and wanted to pounce on the king sumo: "You are a dog who eats inside and out, and it is useless for me to have an intimate relationship with you..." Luo Wenhu also has courage, but after all, he is not good at martial arts. Push down to the ground for the armored soldiers behind him.

Cao Zi'ang waved his hand and told the soldiers to release Luo Wenhu, saying, "As you can guess, the soldiers and horses who had previously gone to Suizhou and then transferred to Fancheng via Suizhou, as well as the soldiers and horses who had arrived at Lishan City this time, are all soldiers and horses. I'm the elite of Huaidong -- I might as well tell you, in addition to the more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in front, just after Danxiapo, I have more than 40,000 elite soldiers in Huaidong to attack Lishan and Suizhou from the west tonight. Lord Luo was forced to become a rogue in his early years, but he is still able to work diligently and love the people, and at this time he can help our army to seize Suizhou, what to do, Lord Luo should make a choice..."

"How is it possible? How is it possible?" Luo Wenhu muttered to himself, with the cooperation of the king, Huaidong could send three or five thousand elites to cross Huaishan to the Chaishan territory to hide, he believed, but he heard from Cao Ziang that there were almost 50,000 Huaidong troops already. Entering the territory of Lishan, Luo Wenhu subconsciously determined that Cao Zi'ang was talking big...

But it's not just the issue of soldiers and horses sneaking in. It's not that difficult for people to cross the Huaishan Mountains on foot. After all, there are some dangerous trails connecting the Huaishan Mountains with twists and turns, but the supply of 50,000 soldiers and horses can't be called Wang Xiang. Conjured out of thin air in Chaishan, right?

If you think about it, it's not right: the total number of grain-carrying soldiers and horses who have passed through the front two times is as many as 10,000 people. Although Luo Xiancheng asked Wang Xiang to pay another 100,000 stone grain and grass from Chaishan, it is a bit exaggerated, but Wang Xiang transported it for the first time. Food and grass, 2,000 carriages, indeed there are as many as 20,000 to 30,000 shi. This time, the 1,000 carriages contained 10,000 shi of grain and grass. Thinking of Wang Xiangzhi's ability to manage Chaishan, it is unlikely that such a remote area could have come out of Chaishan. More food to come!

The 30,000 stone grains alone are enough to consume 50,000 soldiers and horses for ten days and a half months.

Luo Wenhu was stunned there...

"Master Luo, please go to Danxiapo to find out!" Cao Zi'ang did not bother with Luo Wenhu, and ordered Luo Wenhu to be taken to Danxiapo to see the main force of Chaishan troops and horses who had entered there, and said to Wang Xiang: " Huang Zuyu and Zhou Bin have already taken Fancheng. I told Sun Zhuang to lead the cavalry to join Huang Zuyu and Zhou Bin in Fancheng. Although I told Sun Zhuang to bypass Suizhou as much as possible, it would be difficult to avoid disturbing the Suizhou guards at all. If Luo Wenhu is willing to be used by Huaidong, lure Suizhou soldiers and horses to aid Lishan or pretend to be Lishan soldiers and horses to flee to Suizhou, it can indeed ease the difficulty of attacking Suizhou. However, even if Suizhou city is stormed~www.wuxiaspot.com~ It does not matter. …”

Sun Zhuang led his cavalry to Fancheng. Even if there was no delay on the way, it would take two days to catch Chen Zhihu to enter Fancheng before the garrison in Wuyang moved south.

At this time, it is no longer possible to skimp on horsepower. Even if thousands of horses are exhausted on the way, as long as the main force of Yanhu reinforcements gathers around Fancheng, Sun Zhuang can step into Fancheng to strengthen the defense of Fancheng, and get stuck in the place where Fancheng is to be rushed. If Hu soldiers and horses are cut apart, the victory of the Battle of Jingxiang can be completely established——

Next, the main force of the Huaidong Army in Huangzhou will fight northward, while the main force of Chaishan troops and horses will fight westward until they reach Fancheng, where they will join with Sun Zhuang and the others, and the battle of Jingxiang will come to an end...

Whether Suizhou can be successfully captured is not a big problem.

From Chaishan to Suizhou, Cao Ziang still has nearly 40,000 elites available: whether it is Luo Xiancheng returning from the northern foot of Huaishan, or Zhong Rong, Chen Hansan abandoning Tiemen Mountain, and Fengshan going north, Cao Ziang can easily encircle around Suizhou. help.

Luo Xiancheng returned from the northern foot of Huaishan Mountain, Fengli Camp and Dongyuan's Shouzhou soldiers and horses could enter through the passage between Huaishan and Tongbai Mountain; while Zhong Rong and Chen Hansan abandoned Tiemen Mountain and Fengshan Mountain to the north, It means that there will be a big gap in the east flank of the Eastern Hubei defense line, and the main force of the Huaidong Army and the Chizhou Army will be able to drive north through this gap.

It doesn't matter whether Luo Wenhu is willing to surrender question.

Wang Xiang was born in Suizhou. Since he can be used by Huaidong and he has made great contributions, then as long as he has no major mistakes in Suizhou, Huaidong will naturally give him face.
