Chapter 1827 The Third Luoyang War (End)


    Chapter 1825: The Third Luoyang War (End)


    After Qin Jian encouraged Cheng Chuang a few words, he said to everyone: "Now Li Tang is coming fiercely, and most of the Luoyang City are new recruits, and there are not enough elites.


    The military advisor has ordered that from now on, all private soldiers of all major families must join the city defense force and defend Luoyang.


    My Qin family members should set an example. Any man over the age of 16 must participate in the war and defend Luoyang. ”


    “Yes, Uncle Fourth.”


    The Qin family members shouted in unison, all of whom were excited, only Hu Hai looked terrified.


    He has not even mastered the first level of the Ancestral Dragon Art. How could he survive if he went to the battlefield?


    The Qin family has been able to cultivate the children of this clan without any effort. Even the unique ancestral learning "The Ancestral Dragon Skill" was taken out without reservation and was used for all the disciples of appropriate age to learn.


    This was a unique thing before, and it was precisely because of this that the disciples of the Qin family were full of a sense of belonging to the Qin family and the whole family was united.


    Hu Hai is also a child of the Qin family, so he can naturally learn the complete version of the Ancestral Dragon Skill. However, he doesn''t know how to cherish such a precious opportunity. He often is lazy when practicing, so he has not yet been able to break through the first level of the Ancestral Dragon Skill.


    At this time, Hu Hai felt extremely regretful. When he was practicing, it would be great if he had worked harder.


    While the Qin family was mobilizing, other families in Luoyang City were also mobilizing, and the whole city was preparing for war, which was naturally Jia Xu''s order.


    The news of the fall of Hangu Pass and the disappearance of Li Cunxiao has been suppressed by Jia Xu and has not been announced. After all, if such a major event is announced, it will definitely cause a riot.


    Jia Xu originally wanted to limit the battlefield to the front line of the wild Wang Yiyang, but he did not expect that the Tang army dared to bypass the two cities and head directly towards Luoyang without capturing the wild Wang Yiyang.


    In this case, the fall of Hangu Pass will naturally not be concealed, and Jia Xu could only announce to the public that Hangu Pass has fallen.


    However, Jia Xu still did not announce the disappearance of Li Cunxiao. After all, Li Cunxiao''s life and death alone would affect the morale of the entire army.


    "The military advisor has been discovered that the number of Tang troops who bypassed the Ye Wang and Yiyang cities is between 60,000 and 70,000." Gai Nie reported in a deep voice.


    "so much?"


    Jia Xu was immediately surprised. He thought that Cheng Qi said that "the Tang army had more than 40,000 troops" was to cover up his abandoned city and fled, but he did not expect that the number of Tang troops was greater than Cheng Qi said.


    After Jia Xu ordered Tan Daoji to lead 10,000 troops to support the front line, there were only 5,000 main troops left in Luoyang City, including 4,000 Flying Tiger Army. The remaining 30,000 troops were all new recruits who had just been recruited, and their combat effectiveness and fighting spirit were very limited.


    The main forces of the Tang army are about to invade, while Luoyang has only 30,000 new soldiers and 5,000 main forces. With such a huge gap in strength, even Jia Xu felt a little unsure.


    Therefore, Jia Xu ordered the reorganization of private soldiers from various major families and used them to defend the city.


    In fact, with the thorough implementation of Qin Hao''s policy, the aristocratic families under the Qin army actually had few private soldiers left. After all, if the number exceeds the number, it will be directly defined as rebellion, and then the family will be confiscated and the family will be destroyed. Therefore, of course, the aristocratic families will not dare to expand their private soldiers.


    However, although there are not many private soldiers in the aristocratic families, there are still hundreds of guards.


    There are so many people who gather together, and Jia Xu really brought together five thousand family soldiers.


    It is definitely not enough to rely solely on these 5,000 private soldiers. So Jia Xu ordered to open the Ku Mansion and temporarily recruit 50,000 strong men to participate in the defense of Luoyang. This made the ministers in the court feel at ease, but some people are still worried. These ministers were not worried about the Qin army''s ability to defend the city, but about the city of Luoyang.


    5,000 main force, 30,000 new soldiers, 5,000 soldiers from aristocratic families, and 50,000 Luoyang men. From the data alone, as long as you are not intentionally committed to death or take the initiative to attack, there is no problem in defending the strong city of Luoyang, but the key is that Luoyang is a bit evil.


    Although Luoyang''s city walls are built tall, the arrow towers and other cities are of a complete range of types and numerous, and the number is large, which looks very strong on the surface, but in fact it is similar to the decorations. It has not been kept a few times so far.


    During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the Yellow Turban Army attacked Luoyang and the Han army defended Luoyang. As a result, Luoyang was lost and the Han court retreated into Guanzhong.


    However, because the great man gave up voluntarily, he naturally cannot blame Luoyang City this time.


    Afterwards, the Han coalition forces counterattacked Luoyang, the Ming army defended Luoyang, and the Han coalition forces successfully occupied Luoyang.


    Later, the Guandong princes allied forces to attack Dong, and the Liang army defended Luoyang, but the Luoyang was still lost. The Liang army retreated into Guanzhong, and Luoyang fell into Qin Hao''s hands.


    Luoyang City seemed to have been cursed, and it seemed to have a strong defense. The generals in charge of guarding were all famous generals, but the enemy fell once and they had not been successfully defended so far.


    With so many precedents of losing the situation before, the ministers in the court will naturally be afraid that Luoyang will be captured by the Tang army again.


    Many officials have proposed to move the capital and ask His Majesty the Emperor or Bingzhou to prevent His Majesty from falling into crisis if Luoyang cannot be defended.


    The enemy moved the capital before it came, which would only make the situation even more chaotic. In response to these speculators who were afraid of the world''s chaos, Jia Xu naturally scolded them severely and silently remembered their great names in his little notebook in his heart.


    Subsequently, Jia Xu announced that the Li Tang army did not bring siege equipment, and it was impossible to attack Xia Luoyang. In addition, he had requested reinforcements from Hebei. As long as he held Luoyang for a month, the reinforcements from Hebei would rush back.


    As soon as these two news came out, the civil and military officials in the court felt much more at ease, but those with ulterior motives jumped up and down even more powerfully.


    As for these people who had previously hidden themselves and now came forward to make trouble, they were all recorded in small notebooks by Jia Xu.


    Although the imperial party members led by Ma Riyi, Kong Rong and Yang Jun were determined to muddle the water and create opportunities for Li Shimin, they were beaten by Jia Xu''s combination of punches and didn''t know how to fight back.


    In general, the Tang army was about to come to Luoyang, and the intentional provocation of the Emperor Party in the city did indeed bring considerable riots to Luoyang, but under Jia Xu''s various means, Luoyang City was panicked and unchaos, and everything was going on in an orderly manner towards the better.


    Jia Xu had a big plan in his mind, a big plan to capture all these loyal Han officials in one go.


    These people were hiding too deeply. Even if Qin Hao was the king before, he only jumped out some miscellaneous fish that died. All the real big fish lurked. If they didn''t jump out on their own, they wouldn''t know who it was.


    If Luoyang hadn''t had the empty troops this time and Li Shimin''s army was coming, these people would probably still not have jumped out.


    So, Jia Xu was preparing to take advantage of the fourth, no, the third Luoyang War to lure all the lurking imperial party out in one go. He wanted to leave Qin Hao with a court without any hidden dangers.
