And to the south of Dasanguan, more than two hundred miles away from Chang'an, there are mountains and dense snow, and the peaks on both sides are like lying cows and running horses, and they are like natural barriers that are impermeable to the wind. And under the twists and turns of the mountains, the frozen Sangu Water (Qingjiang River) is frozen like white strips; it is a majestic and beautiful scenery of the Northland.
It's just that many of the city walls located in the ancient road of Chencang have fallen under the tide of offensive launched by the Sanchuan official army against the wind and snow, and the front line has been pushed straight to the periphery of Sanguan City. Therefore, under the Dasanling Ridge where Guancheng is located, the mountains and valleys are full of endless camps, and the fierce attack and the fire and smoke and the voices of people are full of people, making the cumulus clouds and falling snow in the sky empty.
"Crazy, crazy. Didn't it mean that the Sanchuan soldiers were not good at defending and not attacking? Why did they desperately attacked in this bitter cold season..."
Standing on the barrier wall, the Shangshu of the Ministry of War of the Great Qi and Huang E in the southwestern camp, who described his wealth, also roared loudly while looking at this scene.
"Where are the reinforcements in Chang'an? Why haven't they arrived? Why are the firearms, crossbows, and stone cannons that I want missing?"
"Perhaps it is Xue Xue's hard to go, and she is still stumbling on the road..."
A subordinate next to him carefully and leniently said:
"Outrageous, I sent a messenger five days ago, and now even if I learn from the turtle crawl, I should climb to Chencang County..."
Huang E's increasingly irritable grievance said:
At this moment, Huang E, of course, felt that these officers and soldiers had taken the wrong medicine and had lost their minds; but he himself was forced to go crazy. You must know that since Dasanguan changed hands, these officers and soldiers have retreated to the south of Xingyuan Mansion. Therefore, what he has to guard against is only Shang Rang who once belonged to Daqi, but was self-reliant in Hanzhong.
Therefore, King Huang ordered him to recruit troops to guard Chen Cang and establish a southwest camp on the spot. On the one hand, it was not just a disguised depreciation and punishment, but it was a means of protection for the time being to avoid the limelight; on the other hand, he wanted to be on the spot Give full play to his strengths and secretly communicate with Shangren's many generals, in order to be able to bring back some people.
Therefore, when he was in office, he did not change his predecessor and tried hard to make a difference, in order to repay the kindness and pains of Huang Wang's extra protection and protection of the Huang clan relatives. Not only did it recruit people and materials on the spot to rebuild the dilapidated and abandoned customs, but also built a dozen fortresses and outposts in Chencang Road, and advanced to the vicinity of Liangquan City in Fengzhou (now Fengxian, Shaanxi).
As a result, he spent the entire summer and autumn without waiting for the official army to attack. Instead, after the winter, he divided his troops and mobilized several troops, and went north to strengthen and guard Qingshui Valley in Fengxiang and Danzheng Gorge in Jingyuan; These Shudi officials suddenly attacked and killed them in the coldest season. And there are almost 13,000 people left in his hands.
On the other hand, the generals under Shang Rang who had been secretly communicating with him seemed to suddenly cut off the news. This made him a little unprepared, who was still preparing for the New Year in Chen Cang City. During the process of rushing over, he threw it away in one breath. There were more than a dozen strongholds in Chen Cang Dao that were used to block the enemy and warn.
Of course, before that, he used his own power to make some precautionary preparations for the storage of grain, machinery and materials. Therefore, in the face of the sudden offensive of these officers and soldiers, in addition to being caught off guard at the beginning of the 13th village of Chen Cangdao, he finally stabilized his position under the southern city of Dasanguan.
But after all, the military strategy of the French military is not the director, and it is slightly inadequate for marching and fighting. Huang E, who is better at manipulating personnel and tactics, does not have much confidence and confidence in the face of the surging officers and soldiers. Dictated. At the moment when Feng Sui in Chen Canggu Road ignited early, he sent out couriers desperately seeking help to Chang'an one after another.
In addition, there are still several new and old men under his command, and many of them have followed Huang Wang to fight the world for many years. They can be called the brave choice for fighting the old and old before the battle, or they are in Guanzhong. Newly selected soldiers who stand out from the local hard fight. But most of them have courage and fighting spirit, but lack the talents of strategy and resourcefulness.
Therefore, he still hopes that Chang'an can send back support. It would be even better if we could get the firearm support imported from the South. After all, compared to those bowstring crossbow arms that are easy to freeze in the severe cold of winter and need to be fired or placed in the arms to be used; the ignited fire blunders and kerosene bombs are undoubtedly much less troublesome and worry-free. Up.
However, he was relieved for some reason, but he couldn't get any help and military input directly from the south, and he even took the initiative to avoid suspicion and alienate him. Therefore, even if he is a scholar of the Ministry of War and uses his power to strive for it, he can only get a small part of the total quota allocated by the Yellow King.
Because most of it was transferred to Li Junru, who was in charge of the political affairs hall, by the book leader Li Junru. It is said that it was because some people discovered that the firearms and medicines imported by the Taiping Army were very useful in the process of excavating the tombs, and they could open up more urgent financial resources for the new dynasty of the Qi Dynasty.
But just such a small part of the firearms was also in the process of being attacked by the official army under the southern city of Sanguan, and was able to be used for emergency rescue. Therefore, Huang E, as the imperial clan of the new dynasty of the Great Qi Dynasty, and Yuan Cong cadre, although he was still uncomfortable and wary of what the Taiping Army in the south had done; but for the equipment made by this generation, it would be better to do better.
However, Huang E had to calm down and face the reality again after a while. At least he was anxious and anxious anyway, but in front of those Daqi soldiers who stood firm, he still tried his best to put on a confident and indifferent appearance, encouraging and encouraging over and over the city again and again:
"The children will work harder. Changan's back-up is on the road and will arrive at any time..."
"Brothers, though feel relieved, the materials, grains and machinery are adequately guaranteed, and the official dog will never come back..."
"The winter snow is getting bigger and bigger. The old dynasty bet on all-out attack at this time, it is self-defeating!"
"The official dog is at the end of the battle. If you kill these dog thieves, you can have a good year..."
As if echoing his words, in the direction of Chencang County to the north of Sanguan, there were bursts of faint clamors and shouts, as well as the moving company under the gray sky and misty wind and snow. Flare. Huang E couldn't help but exclaimed in his heart:
"The back-up has arrived, don't open the door quickly to meet up, Jirou will prepare for the counterattack with me"
However, soon after, Huang E's joy and expectation had turned into total horror and cold hands and feet. Because, among the rest of the wind and snow, the first appeared to be scattered and fleeing figures, and what followed was a completely unfamiliar red sun flag, and the gray armor rushing through the snowy field in hordes under the flag. cavalry.
They rushed to the Beiguan gate of Dasanguan in such a rampage, only to be stopped by the hurriedly closed gate amidst the fierce and flustered exclamation of the city. But at this moment, Huang E's mood was already deep in the abyss of despair.
After severing the supply and support from Chencang County, how long can he hold on to the city of Guancheng, which is just like a Jedi by the enemy
In the Daming Palace in Chang'an City, Huang Chao, who had left the night banquet of the inner court, did not return to the Anshi Hall, but instead came to the Lizheng Hall where the Zhonggong was located. In the announcement of the left and right servants and the palace staff, he came straight to the front of the emperor Cao who was acting as a female celebrity under the lights.
"You all retreat, I will talk to the queen and understand myself..."
"Why do you need to be like this... What is it, even if you ask someone to tell a concubine."
Empress Cao put down the objects in her hands and said lightly:
"Lin Niang, why do you and I have such a life..."
Huang Chao sighed:
"The saint is responsible for the family and the country, and the world is one. The ministers and concubines are the examples of the harem, and the courtesy must not be abandoned."
Empress Cao's flat voice is neither salty nor light:
"Well, that's all..."
Huang Chao sat down somewhat boringly, then looked at the object in her hand and said.
"You are the prince of the middle palace, why do you still have to perform these miscellaneous tasks..."
"It's just for fun, I used to do it in my early years anyway..."
Empress Cao's face moved slightly and then lowered her eyelids, saying:
"Isn't this a child's object?"
Huang Chao noticed the style of the female workers in her hands, and couldn't help asking:
"Don’t you know, the good news for our good son-in-law’s house..."
Empress Cao then raised her eyes slightly in surprise:
"Although it's not a medicine, but as a big room mother, she always has to show something; it's just that she has been looked after by me since she was not good at these female celebrity skills, so I have to let me as a mother to worry about it. ..."
"But there is such a thing?"
Huang Chao was also surprised, with mixed feelings in his heart, and that person actually had an offspring, which also meant that the foundation that was still coveted and shaken by others was strengthened even more.
But in the next moment, he was secretly vigilant and suspicious. I didn't know this kind of thing. I still need a reminder from the queen of the harem. Is it because of the series of changes after I fell ill, the news channels around me have been blocked and abandoned. ? .
With this kind of worry and worry, he can't sit still for long anymore, but just chats with Empress Cao for a few words and then leaves; but he has completely forgotten that he wanted to be related to the two little kings just now. From the beginning and the excuses, it is the original intention to relax the relationship with Empress Cao.
It was only when he came out that he planned to summon Huang Rui, the Shang Shu of the Ministry of Rites, who was responsible for the collection of internal and external news, overnight to confirm the corresponding situation. However, I saw several small envoys, signers and others on duty in the Privy Council, all of their faces hurriedly drawn over; then they whispered to him with expressions of expression:
"Holy, there is an urgent report from Wugong City."
"The second road aid division that went to the local area suddenly went to camp overnight..."
"Leading Li Yan was unsuccessful in repressing, and he was rushed away from the Chinese army's main line..."
"Now I'm gathering the ministries on the spot, and I'm doing it on the spot to wait for the crime to go down.
Hearing this, Huang Chao couldn't help but shake an angry body in his heart, and threw his hands to pieces:
"Are you still waiting for a crime, don't you know that the military is in a hurry?" (End of this chapter)
