Chapter 139
Everyone looked at him.
It was Han Sui who surrendered.
Han Sui bowed and said calmly:"General, I actually think that we can temporarily avoid the edge of Yong County and concentrate our strength in the direction of Chang'an."
"Oh?"
Beigong Boyu was stunned:"What do you mean?"
Han Sui thought for a moment and explained:"According to the court's usual reaction speed, we marched into Sanfu and approached the imperial mausoleum, violating the other party's bottom line. Liu Hong will definitely send troops to attack us."
"If my guess is correct, the enemy is already preparing to send troops. If the imperial court occupies Chang'an first, it will do us a hundred harms and no benefit."
"But if......"
Han Sui took a deep breath and said loudly:"If we can occupy Chang'an, we can send troops to guard Hangu Pass. This is a natural barrier and a must-fight place for military strategists. If we take it, we can protect Chang'an and compete with the imperial court."
"Then, the general will lead the army back to fight in Yong County. The enemy only has a few thousand new recruits. Even if they train hard, it will only be half a year. How can they stop my 100,000 strong army!"
Beigong Boyu nodded slowly.
But at this time.
Li Wenhou flashed out and rolled his eyes at Han Sui:"Wen Yue's words, although reasonable, are totally unfeasible!"
"Just imagine!"
He was very straightforward and gave the reason directly:"Chang'an is an important city, heavily guarded by the imperial court. How can it be so easy to capture it? Even if our army is at its peak, it will be difficult to capture it without half a month!"
"During this period, if Wang Hao leads his troops to attack our rear and attack from the front and back with the Chang'an defenders, what can we do? Or, the other side just harasses our army's food supply, which is fatal to us!"
Beigong Boyu nodded again.
I have to admit!
What Li Wenhou said makes a lot of sense.
Yong County is sandwiched between Chencang and Chang'an, which is indeed very embarrassing for them.
Although they had already deployed to take Yong County when they were in Liangzhou, Wang Hao was so alert that 20,000 elite cavalry actually came up empty-handed!
There was no way!
They abandoned Yong County and attacked Chencang.
But who would have thought that Yong County suffered a great defeat just after Chencang was captured!
Although there were only more than 10,000 miscellaneous soldiers, they were Qiang and Hu soldiers after all. Beigong Boyu was really a little painful!
"This Yong County is indeed a tough nut to crack."
Beigong Boyu frowned and exhaled a long breath:"If we attack Yong County with all our strength, it is equivalent to giving Chang'an to the court, but if we attack Chang'an with all our strength, we will fall into the embarrassing situation of being attacked from both sides."
"well......"
Beigong Boyu sighed and frowned,"What should I do?"
"General!"
Han Sui bowed again and said softly:"Compared with the imperial army, Yong County is naturally more threatening than the imperial army. We should attack Chang'an with all our strength. This strategy is undoubtedly correct."
"As for whether Yong County will launch a surprise attack on our military grain supply route......"
Han Sui's eyes sparkled with confidence,"I think that as long as we make good plans, we can still buy time for the army. It doesn't need to be too much, just delay it for ten days!"
"Oh?"
Beigong Boyu couldn't help but wonder:"Could it be that Wen Yue has a brilliant plan?"
Han Sui bowed his hands:"I don't deserve a brilliant plan, it's just a clumsy one."
Beigong Boyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief:"Tell me about it."
Han Sui responded:"In fact, as long as we wait......"
******
Yong County.
A scene of joy.
In the military camp, Pang De was holding a roasted leg of lamb and eating it with big mouthfuls. This battle was really exciting.......
It's so fucking satisfying.
Pound has been feeling frustrated for a long time, and today he finally lets it out.
"Pang De, is Pang Lingming here?"
He was enjoying his meal when suddenly a voice rang out.
Pang De stood up and said,"Yes!"
Zhang Nan came over and said with a smile,"You are quite capable, I heard that you killed sixty-two Qiang and Hu soldiers in this battle?"
Pang De swallowed the lamb leg in his mouth and said,"That's right!"
"Is there any fraud?"
"No!"
"hey-hey"
Zhang Nan patted Pang De on the shoulder and motioned him to sit down:"You are really good. You gave me such a big surprise in the first battle. To be honest, I really want to promote you."
"But......"
At this point, Zhang Nan let out a long breath and said softly,"I won't hide it from you. After all, you are a subordinate of Hanyang County, not of Yong County. You will definitely have to leave in the future!"
"I really......"
Zhang Nan shook his head and exhaled:"You should understand, right?"
The meaning is very simple!
Although you have made contributions, you are not from our Yong County, and I cannot promote you.
Pang De heard this and immediately wiped his mouth and said loudly:"Sima, I am just a minor official in Hanyang County. I was not a person of Hanyang County before I went to Luoyang with the county magistrate!"
"I always thought I......"
Zhang Nan's eyes suddenly lit up:"Don't say anymore, I understand what you mean. You are willing to join my Yong County and follow my master, is that what you mean?"
Pang De nodded affirmatively:"Yes, I am willing!"
Zhang Nan was overjoyed:"Okay! Come with me to meet my master. With your merits in this battle, it will definitely not be a problem for you to get the position of military marquis, and there is a vacancy!"
""Okay!"
Pang De followed Zhang Nan out of the tent without hesitation.
After a while, the two arrived at the county hall.
Zhang Nan clasped his fists and bowed:"My lord, Pang De said he is willing to join us!" Pang De even knelt on one knee and clasped his fists and bowed:"General Pang De, I am willing to follow you until death, I hope you will take me in!"
Ding!
A new member has joined.
Pang De: Military Strength 85; Intelligence 68; Politics 52; Command 81;
Pang De, who was born in a border county, is really amazing.
At this age, his military strength has reached 85 points.
It seems that when he reaches his peak, it should be possible for his military strength to reach 95.
You know, 95 points of military strength is the threshold for a top-notch military general!
In terms of military strength alone,
Pang De is already the number one general under Wang Hao.
Wang Hao was ecstatic. He stood up, walked around the long table, turned into the hall, and personally helped Pang De up:
"Hahaha!"
"As long as I, Wang Hao, can get your help, Pang Lingming, there is no need to worry about not being able to destroy the Qiang and Hu people in Liangzhou!"
"Very good!"
"That's great!"
Wang Hao patted Pang De on the shoulder, turned his head and said:"Zhang Nan, do you have any vacancies?"
Zhang Nan clasped his hands and said:"My lord, I am preparing to promote Pang De to the rank of military marquis. In this battle, he killed more than 60 enemies, even more than me. Such a brave general cannot be buried!"
Wang Hao nodded:"Ling Ming, what do you think?"
Pang De clasped his hands and said:"My lord, I will obey the arrangement. It doesn't matter even if I start as a minor official."
"How can that be possible!"
Wang Hao refused outright and said with a smile:"The governor of Hanyang County does not recognize a true hero, so how can I, Wang Hao, do that? You should first serve as a military officer under Zhang Nan, and then be promoted after you have made more military achievements!"
"I believe!"
"With your ability, Pang De, it is only a matter of time before you become a Sima or a colonel!"
Pang De was overjoyed:"Thank you, my lord. I will live up to your expectations!""
