Chapter 1200 Chen Qingzhi vs. Guo Fengxiao
Chapter 1198: Chen Qingzhi vs. Guo Fengxiao
Not long ago, Han Fu and Yuan Shao attacked Chen Youliang and Zhang Shicheng respectively. The Chen and Zhang families were defeated and retreated step by step, so they decided to recall the 20,000 troops that assisted the Southern Alliance.
For the 150,000-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-0
Although Wang Mang did not want to let Chen Qingzhi and Chen Ba leave first, Zhang Shicheng and Chen Youliang''s orders were given. Wang Mang was neither the lord of the two and had nothing to do with them. Of course, there was no excuse for the two of them to leave behind. Forcibly detained them would only make the relationship between the three of them stiffen.
Just when Wang Mang was in a dilemma, news came that Long Qi killed Wang Shichong came, and then news came that Long Yang captured Huguan.
Huguan fell, and the road from Bingzhou to Jizhou was blocked. Now even if Wang Mang agreed to leave, Erchen could not go back.
Chen Youliang was Erchen''s brother after all, and Erchen''s desire to leave was firm. Wang Mang naturally understood that forcing him to stay could not be kept, so he decided to send Chen Qingzhi to attack Shangdang and Huguan. The meaning was that if you want to go back, you should fight back by yourself.
If Chen Qingzhi really regained Shangdang and Huguan, it would be equivalent to Wang Mang''s worries. Even if he left, Wang Mang knew that if he didn''t regain it, then Wang Mang could not blame Wang Mang for not letting the two go. It was you who were not good at it.
I have to say that Wang Mang''s abacus was really smart. He obviously sold Chen Qingzhi, but Chen Qingzhi was still counting money for Wang Mang, and he took advantage of it and did not offend both sides.
Although Wang Mang only gave Chen Qingzhi 40,000 troops, this was not because he was stingy, but because he was afraid that if he gave too much, the front-line army would not be able to withstand the Qin army''s offensive.
For the Biannan Alliance, the biggest enemy is Qin Hao. Once the front-line army cannot stop the Qin army and is defeated, it will be meaningless even if Chen Qingzhi defeats Long and regains Shangdang and Huguan.
The fall of Shangdang and Huguan caused the Biannan Alliance to lose nearly 10,000 troops, and Chen Qingzhi took away 40,000 troops, which also reduced Wang Mang''s troops to 100,000, but he had to fight against the 130,000 Qin army armed to the teeth.
Wang Mang''s heart was under unprecedented pressure, but at this point he had no way back. He had to bear it, no matter whether it was victory or defeat.
—————
After Chen Qingzhi and Guo Tai left, they did not attack Huguan as soon as possible, but chose to concentrate their troops to siege Changzicheng of Shangdang Governance Headquarters.
After Long Qi divided his troops to attack other Shangdang cities, he also divided the troops of Changzi City. At this time, there were only 10,000 defenders in Changzi City.
Wang Shichong was very supportive of the Shangdang family, especially the other eight major merchants of Shanxi merchants, and seemed to have been tied to the Biannan Alliance Army.
Chen Qingzhi originally thought that the aristocratic family in the Changzi City would help him open the city gate and fight against the Ming army, but he far underestimated the Ming army''s deterrence against the aristocratic family.
The Yellow Turbans and the Ming Dynasty both relied on the massacre of aristocratic families to fight against the Han Dynasty. There were thousands of aristocratic families slaughtered, which also made the Ming army the most feared force among the aristocratic families in the world.
Although the aristocratic families in Changzi City were dissatisfied with the Ming army occupying Shangdang, they did not dare to help the coalition forces fight against the Ming army. If they failed, they would definitely be killed. Even if they succeeded, they would face endless pursuit of the Ming army''s forces, and Wang Mang obviously could not save their lives.
Although the Ming army now occupies most of Shangdang, it is rare that it does not take the initiative to slaughter the aristocratic families. If the Ming army does not provoke the aristocratic families, the aristocratic families have already prayed to gods and worshipped Buddhas, so naturally they dare not offend the Ming army on their own initiative.
Seeing that the Shangdang family was so peaceful, Long Qi was satisfied and couldn''t help but think it was a pity that he was ready to start a massacre, but he didn''t expect that these families were so backbone.
According to convention, the first thing the Ming army did after seizing the city was to investigate the sins of the aristocratic families and then act on the way for heaven. Before Long Qi sent troops, Emperor Ming told him not to take the initiative to attack the aristocratic families. Although Long Qi was puzzled, he could only obey. Chen Qingzhi saw that he could not open the city from the inside, so he acted as if he was attacking Changzicheng, but arranged ambushes on the road between Changzicheng and Huguan, and spread rumors that Changzicheng was about to be in danger everywhere, and was preparing to come to Longyang in Huguan to attack the support.
Long Yang in Huguan had 20,000 troops in his hand. Seeing that Chen Qingzhi''s 40,000 troops besieged Changzicheng, and his brother Changlong had only 10,000 troops in his hand, but the form on Changzicheng was very critical, so he prepared to divide 10,000 troops to support his brother.
Guo Jia, a military officer who disguised as Jia Guo, saw this and advised with a smile: "General Long, don''t worry. Although Long Qi only has 10,000 troops in Changzi City, Changzi City has high walls and various defensive equipment. Chen Qingzhi only has only 40,000 troops in his hands. There is absolutely no problem for General Long Qi to defend his life for three months.
This is just Chen Qingzhi''s relocation from the mountain. I predict that Chen Qingzhi will set up an ambush halfway, and once the general leaves the city, he will fall into the trap. ”
[Dingdong, Guo Jia’s skill ‘genius’ is activated.

[Dingdong, Guo Jia''s skill "Ghost" is activated. When he is a military advisor, he improves the intelligence of the head coach by 1 to 3 points, and Long Yang''s intelligence is +3. Currently, Long Yang''s intelligence is 73. 】
"What?"
Long Yang was shocked when he heard this. In his opinion, Jia Guo was a famous wise man in the Ming Dynasty. His position and prestige were far higher than himself, so he naturally would not be aimless. He had already said that. It seemed that this was indeed Chen Qingzhi''s plan.
"Since that''s the case, then I will not leave the city." Long Yang said in a deep voice.
"No."
Guo Jia''s eyes flashed with a cold light and he smiled faintly: "It is precisely because he knows that Chen Qingzhi has set up an ambush that he has to divide his troops to support Changzi City. The general can pretend to be ignorant and then defeat Chen Qingzhi''s ambush in one fell swoop."
Long Yang couldn''t help but lit up and said with a smile: "The military advisor is good at planning."
Long Yang acted according to Guo Jia''s plan and led 10,000 troops to his eldest son. He saw frightened birds on the way and did not dare to fall into the forest. He knew that there was an ambush from the enemy ahead.
So Long Yang slowed down his marching and detoured behind the opponent while splitting his troops, preparing to attack the ambush on both sides.
Long Jun was not very lucky. This time Chen Qingzhi came in person. Seeing that the Ming army slowed down the marching speed, he guessed that it might have been exposed, so he decisively ordered a retreat.
Seeing that the enemy discovered his intention, Long Yang immediately gave up the attack and pursued with all his might. He broke Chen Qingzhi in one fell swoop and killed nearly 3,000 enemies.
Long Yang kept in mind Guo Jia''s advice and did not continue to expand the results of the battle after victory, but continued to go to the eldest son, but led his troops back to Huguan.
Seeing that Long Yang was so cautious, Chen Qingzhi knew that it would be not that easy to capture Huguan in the short term, so he returned to Changzicheng to prepare for a steady battle.
Today is an unusual day. Zhang Ruoyun and Tang Yixin get married, Song Joong-ki and Song Hye-kyo get divorced, Li Chen and Fan Bingbing break up, and they can make headlines after they are separated, so they are all crowded on this day.
