One hundred and sixty-five chapters Tongguan
An occasional flapping of wings butterfly in the tropical rainforest of the Amazon River Basin in South America may cause a tornado in the Texas field in the United States in two weeks.
There are various close connections widely between everything in this world. Some of them have already understood, while most of them are still ignorant. The slight disturbance of any key element may cause huge changes in the entire situation.
Ma Chao, led his Qiang army to successfully pass the Wei River and marched all the way straight behind the Huaili defense line of the Chang'an gentry coalition. The entire Ma Teng army was doing his best to take the lead in the competition with the Han Sui army in the north to march into Chang'an and gain a favorable position in the future competition for the ownership of the two armies in Chang'an. However, this whereabouts fell into the eyes of another group of people.
Qilin Guard!
Since the Qilin Guard invaded Guanzhong, it adopted the squad model. With its advanced equipment and superb ability to hide the traces, it went deep into the various forces in the Guanzhong situation to investigate the news. As an important general in the Ma family army, Ma Chao has always been under key surveillance in the Qilin Guard's action plan.
I saw a piece of loess slowly moving on the hills on both sides of the road where the Ma family army marched, moving slowly across the ridge little by little. When I reached the back, I opened a camouflage costume and revealed an elite Qilin Guard.
"Quick! Send a message to Chang'an headquarters, saying that Ma Chao's troops forcibly marched through the Wei River and were about to raid the flanks of the defense line of the gentry coalition from the diagonal rear. The gentry coalition was not prepared at this point, and the defense line was about to break through tomorrow morning!"
There were already a correspondent and assistant next to him who had assisted the operation. He was busy helping him take off his disguised uniform and start communication with Chang'an headquarters. This news is undoubtedly the overall situation that will soon affect the entire Guanzhong situation, and has a critical significance for Li Zhejun's upper-level strategic judgment and deployment against the enemy. It must be issued as quickly as possible.
After sending the report, the Qilin Guard team must march quickly and rush to the defense line of the gentry coalition forces to find a suitable location to continue monitoring the progress of the battle; on the other hand, they must quickly contact the Qilin Guard team and superior departments distributed on the entire Huaili Front to coordinate the next step of action.
This is the work of the Qilin Guard, which comprehensively controls the entire battle situation. With the super strong battle situation impact ability and information processing ability, its attributes have evolved comprehensively. It has multiple tasks such as intelligence and tactical arms, and has become a strategic department that is crucial to the impact of the entire battle situation.
Soon, the news from the entire front was summarized at the Chang'an headquarters of Qilin Guard. After preliminary screening, it was transferred along Yinban, Xinfeng, Zhengxian and Huayin to the place where Li Zhe was located in Tongguan.
At this time, although Li Zhejun's entire army was curled up in the mountains and ridges to avoid the cold current. Compared with the Guanzhong Plain, his desire for war was as hot as fire. As soon as this news arrived, the military camp moved and quickly began to respond. The officers and soldiers in the army who were eager for military achievements and honor could no longer wait.
"Everyone! The news that our army is waiting for has arrived. A side division of Ma Teng's army marched for 70 miles and bypassed the defense of the gentry coalition. It is about to attack the defense line of the gentry coalition, but there is no news of the gentry coalition until now, so it is probably a lot of danger." Li Zhe stood in the tent, with civil servants and generals under his command, excitedly and excitedly, publishing the information he just received.
The generals in the tent had already been in a rush, and when they heard the sound, they were immediately in agitation.
Jia Xu took a step forward and was about to return to his hometown. His face, who was always Gujing Bubo, was also a little excited: "Since that's the case, our actions that we have been preparing for for a long time must be launched immediately. There are more than 300 miles away from Chang'an. Even if our army advances at full speed, it will take ten days to go forward, so we can't delay any more."
Li Zhe nodded and said, "The Taiwei's words are reasonable! He respects filial piety! I don't know what the relationship with Huangfu Li is like, what he says!"
"Report to the king! Huangfu Li's words are already very obvious. He just can't bear to leave his reputation as the Huangfu family and is unwilling to surrender without fighting. The news in Chang'an is getting softer and softer. I guess he already feels that the situation is not good."
"Hmph! These famous masters have a kind of reputation as a kind of capital for them, but sometimes it will become a burden! Let's do it! Since Huangfu Li is so persistent, let him cooperate with us to act in a play!"
After hearing Li Zhe's words, Guo Jia's eyes lit up immediately, "Oh? Since the lord said this, I must have had an idea. I will wait and see! Hahahaha!" The king and his minister in the tent looked at each other with a relaxed expression.
Immediately afterwards, the entire camp started moving, and the soldiers of each camp came out one by one and lined up against the Tongguan Wall.
The heavy equipment camp in the rear pushed the already prepared catapults and giant crossbows one by one, and opened their hideous minions to Tongguan.
...
Half an hour later, after Li Zhe's order, tens of thousands of cannons of heavy equipment camps were fired, hundreds of catapults and thousands of crossbows began to cover the firepower against the Tongguan Pass wall. For a moment, the wind and clouds changed color, and huge stone bullets and spears like raindrops fell down. The narrow Tongguan Pass wall was immediately riddled with holes and turned into a Jedi for the guards, without any vitality.
The bombardment of hundreds of kilograms of round stone bombs easily turned everything on the wall into gravel rubble. Even the specially built city tower turned into ruins under the combined force of a few stone bombs. The defenders who were huddled in it to avoid bows and arrows did not even make a shout, but turned into flesh and blood in the collapse.
The open-air part of the wall closing is even more exaggerated. The gravel is mixed with spears and small stone bombs fired by countless giant crossbows, making the wall closing become dark and there is no living person living.
Tongguan! In this way, the dangerous barriers in the era of cold weapons were originally a geographical advantage that was narrow in the terrain and difficult to deploy superior attack forces. However, after encountering the artillery coverage tactics that were almost equivalent to those in the era of hot weapons, it immediately became a Jedi for the defenders. The smaller and more crowded the place, the more a stage where Li Zhejun's heavy firepower coverage tactics were rampant.
After closing the wall, the guards who were hiding in the cover to change hands were stunned by the hell scene in front of them. Even the experienced veterans were frightened in such an unheard scene. They almost immediately thought of the legend from Guandong. This! How is this a war on earth? This is obviously the devil coming to the world! In the legend of Li Zhe, he was a god who came down from the upper realm. How can he go against him in the world?
Twenty minutes later, the artillery fire subsided, and only three rounds of covered and fired. The small Tongguan became almost a ruin. Even the shape of the Guancheng changed drastically, with casualties and casualties. At this time, the news came. Huangfu Li, the guard of Tongguan, was kidnapped by his subordinates, and Xianguan surrendered. The surrendered soldiers and generals united as one, risking the risk of raising a white flag on the Guancheng! The door was closed and the hole opened!
Tongguan, broken!...)
