Chapter 1996 Strange Battle Situation

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Li Yuan left Chang'an on July 12th and arrived in Tongzhou City on the 18th.

    Counting to the previous time, for about ten days, after the Sui army occupied Pujin Pass, they did not launch an attack on Tongzhou City.

    When Li Yuan led an army of 100,000 to Tongzhou City, the Sui army, like divine soldiers descending from heaven, surrounded it from all directions and half-surrounded the entire Tongzhou City.

    Tongzhou City is on the east and north banks of Luoshui River. The entire Luoshui River and the Sui army are connected together, as if the entire Tongzhou City is surrounded.

    Zhang Wenyuan and Liu Yunfang each set up camp in the north and east of Tongzhou City.  There were also naval forces that sailed upstream from the Yellow River along the Wei River and Luo River, and occupied the sandy garden on the south side of Tongzhou City (a large sandy field between the Luoshui River and the Weishui River in the south of Dali, Shaanxi Province).

    But the Sui army did not launch an attack on Tongzhou City.

    Although the Sui army fought outside the territory, the food was transported through the Yellow River and its streams, which was not troublesome.

    Li Yuan looked at Sui Jun's suspicious movements and didn't know why.  Zhang Wenyuan and Liu Yunfang are both veteran generals, so they understand that the more time they have left for them, the better prepared they will be.  Logically speaking, the two of them should attack Tongzhou City before their arrival. In these more than ten days, with the fighting power of the Sui army, it was possible to break through Tongzhou, or to encircle the city for reinforcements.  However, the two of them left Tongzhou alone and did not fight, as if they deliberately rushed to Tongzhou.

    Although Li Yuan could not clearly see the Sui army's intentions for the moment, he felt that his personal expedition was a bit reckless.

    Although Tongzhou is very important as a barrier to Chang'an, he should not cross the river and garrison the city so recklessly.  Now more than 100,000 troops are in Tongzhou City, surrounded by enemies on three sides, and the Sui army's navy can swim upstream to behind them at any time, cutting off the connection between Tongzhou and Chang'an.

    Once something happens in the rear or there is a problem with the food route, it will be too late to retreat.

    He should be stationed in Xiagui (now Bayi Town, Weinan City, Shaanxi Province).  Facing the Sui army across the Luoshui River, it can not only support Tongzhou at any time, but also facilitate retreat at any time.

    Although he felt it was inappropriate, Li Yuan did not retreat immediately.

    War is not just playing house, and with more than 100,000 troops moving to fight, it is not easy to retreat.  Once the Sui army retreats and pursues it, it is likely to cause the entire army to collapse.

    However, Master Feng, who was originally going to be transferred to Pucheng, rushed to Tongzhou, but was changed to Xiagui by Li Yuan.

    ãá reduce 75zho ngwe*n.co m ãá.  Xiagui County is located between Tongzhou and Wannian. It is bordered by Baiqu in the north, Shayuan in the west and Jinshipi in the southeast. It is the main road from Tongzhou to Chang'an.  Li Yuan stationed Master Feng here to protect his own retreat.

    Li Yuan entered Tongzhou City. Although the Sui army took the initiative and surrounded the city, they did not launch an attack on Tongzhou City.

    This is really unexpected.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

    Zhang and Liu did not attack or fight, they just stayed in the camp, as if they were hatching chicks, and they did not have the momentum of the main army at all.

    This weird and quiet atmosphere really makes people¡¯s hearts beat.

    "I can't see what Sui Jun wants to do!"

    In the past few days, Li Yuan kept thinking about the Sui army's intentions, and even took the initiative to send troops to test the Sui army, but there was no response.  The Sui army seemed to have led them to the preset battlefield and then fell asleep.

    "What are the Sui troops waiting for?"

    As a qualified tycoon, Li Yuan saw the key to the problem at a glance.

    The Sui army was most likely waiting for something because it was dormant.  I just don¡¯t know whether to wait for reinforcements or wait for a breakthrough.

    Li Yuan couldn't tell.

    There are too many battlefields between the Sui and Tang armies, including Tongzhou, Tongguan, Lantian, Hanzhong, Lingzhou, Guanbei, etc. The safety of the Tang army may be threatened everywhere.

    The situation on the battlefield in Tongzhou is strange, and the affected areas on the left and right sides, Yongfeng Cangcheng and Tongguan, are also very quiet.

    &#29306&#22914&#32&#116&#105&#97&#110&#108&#97&#105&#120&#115&#119&#46&#99&#111&#109&#32&#29306&#22914&#12290 On the battlefield of Yongfeng Cangcheng,  After Li Jiancheng was defeated, he made up his mind to hold on and gritted his teeth.  Although the Sui army launched two attacks from time to time, the intensity was not high.

    ?????????????? Qu Tutong seems to be old and only focused on Yongfeng Cangcheng, but he didn¡¯t realize the importance of Zheng County and never took action against it.

    And Huang Mingzheng on the north side is even more weird.

    In this war with the Sui army, the earliest battle was fought by Huang Mingzheng.?'s.  But Huang Mingzheng did not move when he occupied Huangqin Mountain, nor did he move around Tongguan County.

    It shouldn¡¯t be like this. Isn¡¯t the Sui army worried about the consumption of food and grass?

    After thinking about it, Li Yuan still felt that Zheng County was the most likely to have problems.

    Although it is said that entering Hangu Pass or Tongguan means entering Guanzhong, it is not until Zheng County goes west that the passage sandwiched between the Weishui River and the Qinling Mountains suddenly opens up, and this is when we truly enter the Guanzhong Great Plains.

    "The journey from Chang'an to Zheng County is a total of 1,560 miles, and there is almost no danger to defend during this period.

    If Zheng County falls, Qu Tutong can directly attack Chang'an in one go.  Although Li Yuan has mobilized his nephew Li Chen to lead 5,000 troops to Zheng County, Li Chen is just a young boy, how can he be the opponent of a veteran like Qu Tutong.

    After thinking about it, Li Yuan ordered Yang Tun, who was transferred from Binzhou to the south, to lead the Wei army to Zheng County to garrison.  He also ordered Jiang Baoyi to lead 6,000 troops to the rear of Tongzhou City and camp on the west bank of Luoshui River.

    Since the Sui army wanted to trap him to death, Li Yuan certainly could not comply with the Sui army's wishes.

    With this arrangement, Tongzhou, Yongfeng Cangcheng, and Tongguan were the outer lines, Zhengxian, Xiagui, Fuping, and Huayuan were the inner lines. Li Tang built two arc-shaped positions in the northeast, connected end to end, and taking care of the front and rear.

    Of course it¡¯s not without problems.

    The outer line of Pucheng was withdrawn, resulting in the weakening of contacts between Tongzhou and Tongguan.  There was nothing we could do about this. We didn't have enough troops, and we were worried that our retreat would be stolen, so we had to rush to Xiagui.  Compared with Xiagui, this omission in Pucheng is nothing.

    The other point is that Li Jiancheng's Ministry, which is trapped in Yongfengcang City, has more than 20,000 people. They are surrounded by Yongfengcang, a dead place. They cannot fight or retreat. It is almost a dead end.

    Li Yuan was also worried about the safety of his eldest son, but after all, he was unable to rescue him.

    Even Li Yuan felt that the Sui army besieged Yongfengcang City but did not attack it, and even ignored Zheng County, just because they hoped to take risks to rescue Yongfengcang City.

    Such strange days continued until the night of the 24th.

    An urgent report from Chang'an crossed the Weishui River, crossed the Baiqu, and was delivered to Li Yuan.

    "The main force of the Sui army came from Longzhou and has crossed Guo County and is approaching Chang'an. Chang'an is in danger!"

    Mi He 75zhongwen.com Mi.  The thin piece of paper suddenly slipped from Li Yuan's hand.  Li Yuan's eyes were slightly bulging, his face was dark, and his face was full of disbelief.

    Sui Jun, Longzhou, Guoxian, these places that could not be reached with eight poles, just magically appeared on a piece of paper.

    "This is God's plan to destroy the Li family!"
