Chapter 1314 Died on the way
Spiritual Army Frontline Force.
The 30,000 county soldiers and 20,000 remaining soldiers were in the hands of Wei Guang. At this moment, the soldiers and soldiers, including all the generals, had almost no intention of fighting, and just wanted to avoid the pursuit of the Qin army as soon as possible.
Fortunately, all the cavalry on Su Yi's side were taken away by Tang Yue, and the Spirit Army abandoned all the baggage and retreated lightly all the way, so the distance was relatively safe.
However, Wei Guang did not dare to set up camp, but was marching in a field, thinking about his next plan.
He rode his war horse and walked slowly. The road was full of troops with crooked helmets and slanted armor and messy military appearance.
Soon, the sound of horse hooves came from the front.
"Report~~~~~"
Before the people arrived, the messenger shouted.
As the sound of horse hooves became closer, the messenger turned over and dismounted, knelt down and said, "Report to General Wei, Your Majesty, your Majesty passed on the letter."
It is only more than four hundred miles away from Lingzhou. After whipping the horse, the Ling King's order had arrived. After the messenger finished speaking, he also submitted the letter respectfully.
Wei Guang tied the reins a little, took them with one hand, sat on the horse and opened them and took them carefully.
The letter is simple, that is, let him retreat to Xinchang, and at the same time, he sent Huang Zu back to the capital for treatment.
With reinforcements, this seemed to be a hope, but after reading it, Wei Guang frowned and was speechless for a long time.
The spirit general Fan Que was not far from him. Seeing this, he gently smashed his horse's belly and leaned over, asking tentatively: "Sir Wei, what big thing happened in the capital?"
Wei Guang came to his senses, first glanced at him, and then handed the letter: "General Fan can read it yourself."
Out of curiosity, Fan Que subconsciously took it. After he finished reading it, he said a little surprised: "What, Your Majesty has already drawn the garrison from the East?"
"Haha, do you think this is possible?" Wei Guangyou said: "The 100,000 troops in the East are not only to guard the Eastern Frontier, but also to your Majesty's last reliance. At this moment, even if this army is transferred, can you defend it? Is Your Majesty himself not clear about this problem?"
He asked one after another, and Fan Que was stunned and couldn't help but slide his Adam's apple and swallowed: "Then, what Wei Shuai means..."
"General Fan has been a general on the battlefield and has been through the officialdom for a long time, so why should he ask questions clearly?"
After saying this, Wei Guang was obviously a little lost: "Your Majesty's Holy Order is here, and I'll send a command to the army to go to Xinchang."
These 50,000 loose soldiers had no combat power. Everyone knew whether they could defend Xinchang. The meaning of Wei Guang's words was already quite straightforward. After Fan Que reacted, he couldn't help saying, "But Wei, even if His Majesty wants to move east, he should let us wait."
Wei Guang said directly: "It takes time to move eastward, and Su Yi's advancement speed is too fast. There must be a branch in Xinchang for two days. General Fan doesn't understand this truth?"
"But." Fan Que wanted to say something else, but Wei Guang interrupted him and said, "Nothing is wrong. If General Fan can't figure it out, he will think slowly. Anyway, your Majesty's order has arrived, so we can only go to Xinchang."
After saying that, he was about to order someone to pass the order, but a soldier ran over in panic.
"Report~~~~~"
"Report to the Secretary of Wei, Huang, and the Old General Huang, he has left..."
"What!?" Wei Guang's eyes widened when he heard this, he quickly turned over and dismounted, and grabbed the soldiers: "Aren't the arrows taken out? Aren't the military doctors treated them? How could the veteran general die?"
"This, this." The soldier said with courage: "The military doctor said that the old general was old, seriously injured, and was bumpy all the way, and he was unconscious. In addition, the conditions in the army were simple and he was unable to make up for the truth..."
After hearing this, Wei Guang pushed the soldiers away, then closed his eyes deeply, feeling quite weak: "I ordered Zhang Zhi to bury General Huang and escort his coffin back to Lingzhou. Other troops will enter Xinchang."
"Yes." The messenger immediately took the order.
Fan Que, beside him, moved the corners of his mouth and said sadly: "General Huang has been in war for life, and he died on the way to march..."
As he spoke, his eyes were rosy and his nose couldn't help but feel sore, because he had been a deputy general several times under Huang Zu, and had a certain relationship.
Now, the brave and invincible general Ye Gui has died, the old general Huang Zu has also been killed, and the generals of the Ling Army have all felt deep despair.
Meanwhile, Dong'an County.
Tang Yue led tens of thousands of cavalry, and in two days, he had more than 800 miles of troops, and had already arrived at the county city.
If you want to surround Hou Lingdu, you must pass this place, and the cavalry cannot walk on the steep mountain roads, so you can only rush to the avenue.
If Shi Wenhui, the governor of Dong'an County, built a defense line here and set up a barrier to resist horses, he would be able to block the Qin cavalry.
Tang Yue also knew the importance of this trip, and was galloping all the way, and had the intention to quickly level the place.
As soon as he arrived in Dong'an, he rode his horse to the city, and shouted:
"Listen to the people in the city!"
"Linger and then open the city quickly!"
"Otherwise, within half a day, you will have to flatten this place!"
"At that time! It's too late to regret!"
He had a white horse under his crotch, a silver spear in his hand, and a helmet with an extremely handsome face, staring and shouting angrily.
Behind him was the black and overwhelming Qin cavalry. Looking from the city, he could not see the end at first sight, which was extremely shocking.
Of course, cavalry attacked cities are not as good as infantry, nor are there large equipment, but this is an elite force. It is impossible to defend it with more than 10,000 county soldiers who have never been on the battlefield in Dong'an.
Shi Wenhui, the governor of Dong'an County, had no intention of resisting at all. He even arrived at the city wall early. Hearing the shouts, he hurriedly leaned over and said:
"General, don't worry, Dong'an County has absolutely no intention of opposing the Qin army, and this county magistrate has been waiting here for a long time."
"What do you mean?" Tang Yue suddenly became confused, looked up at the top, pulled the reins slightly, and stepped back and forth in the war horse.
Shi Wenhui said: "The King of Qin went east to attack and was punished by heaven. The millions of kings were invincible and they were invincible. Who can stop the world? And the King of Ling usurped the throne and acted against each other. The gods and men were angry. We spiritual officials have long hated each other for a long time. However, why did we live under others and dare not speak out. Fortunately, the general came here, and Dong'an was like a drought and looking for the rain..."
He was the governor of Lingguo County, but he said such words, and his desire to surrender was no longer obvious.
When Tang Yue heard this, he turned his eyes and asked again: "Sir, do you think this is serious?"
"The general's power is here, how dare Shi speak nonsense?" Shi Wenhui said: "Although Dong'an does not have much military equipment, there are some food, grass and supplies, and I only hope to help the general with one armament."
As he said that, he waved his hand directly and shouted: "Hurry! Open the city gate quickly and welcome the general into the room!"
With his orders, the sound of creaking sour teeth sounded, and the tall and thick city gate was slowly opened.
Seeing this scene, Tang Yue couldn't help but open his eyes wide, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited. Unexpectedly, Dong'an took the initiative to turn on and off.
