Chapter 295 It can be said that Xu Bufan and Guan Zhan have already thought of going together, and they both plan to take the initiative to attack the rear of the coalition army, but the two of them have no intention of joining forces, but are still suspicious of each other and intriguing.
The coalition army rushed forward, Xu Bufan immediately realized that the fighters were coming, and when the coalition army attacked the capital, it was a good opportunity for himself and the defenders of the capital to join forces, but he still had one concern, that is, the battle of Tongcheng.
I can be aware of the fighters, and I believe that Guan Zhan can also realize that if you want to break the enemy, make the first contribution, and compare Guan Zhan, you must be ahead of Guan Zhan.
Xu Bufan planned to lead the Huaning defenders to engage the coalition forces before the battle of Guan, coincidentally, the battle of Guancheng on the other side of Tongcheng was also planned to do so, and he also wanted to break the enemy before Xu Bufan.
These two can be called a heart-to-heart, if the two can work together, the army will fight as one, the situation of the coalition army is indeed very dangerous, but at this time Kong Qing's strategy played a role, and the discord between Xu Bufan and Guan Zhan also laid the groundwork for the fiasco of the two of them.
After the coalition forces bypassed Huaning and arrived at Xitang, they put on a posture of fighting to the death, surrounded the city, and surrounded the huge Xitang City.
However, the Zhenguo court did not feel nervous about the sudden arrival of the coalition army, but felt that they saw the hope of victory.
After all, Xitang is not an isolated city now, there are two strong reinforcements of Huaning and Tongcheng nearby, and the coalition army is encircled around the city and disperses the million army.
Huaning learned the news of the siege of Xitang by the coalition forces as soon as possible, and Xu Bufan secretly said that God helped me, and immediately decided to lead the army out of the city and attack the camp of the coalition army.
Gao Gang, the deputy general of the Huaning Army, stopped him and advised him not to act rashly first, and it was not too late to make a decision after seeing the situation clearly.
Takaoka's opinion is right, Xitang is the capital of Zhenguo, and the fortification of the city defense is far beyond comparison with other cities, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as impregnable.
On the contrary, their side had to defend against the encirclement of the coalition forces and send reinforcements.
The Huaning army has the help of the people in the city, and it can withstand the attack of the coalition army by relying on the city defense, but when it goes out of the city, it loses the help of the people and fights with the coalition army on the plain, and the disadvantage of insufficient troops will be exposed.
Therefore, Takaoka means that when the coalition army and the defenders of the capital are in a stalemate, their own troops can be sent again, and they can fight the tired division in full strength, and it will be easy to win.
Where could Xu Bufan listen to Gao Gang's persuasion, now his mind was full of thoughts on how to win the battle of Guan and defeat the coalition army before the battle of Guan.
He can wait, but can he also wait for the battle over there For Gao Gang's persuasion, he scoffed and said coldly: "In the eyes of the general, the coalition army is a group of rabble, and the general will not send troops until the coalition army becomes a tired division, won't he be laughed at by people."
Alas, Gao Gang sighed secretly, is face more important than the success or failure of the war, is the life and death of more than 100,000 soldiers still not comparable to a face, but he didn't dare to question this face-to-face, after thinking for a long time, he persuaded again: "The coalition army behaves abnormally, with the situation that the coalition army is in, there is no need to risk rushing forward, and take the capital directly, the last general is worried that there is fraud in it, if the general insists on sending troops, he should also predict the city and join forces with General Guan to send troops, which is the best policy."
The reason why Xu Bufan was in a hurry to send troops was that he wanted to rush before the battle of Guan, and now Gao Gang also asked him to inform Tongcheng and join forces to send troops, and his nose was almost crooked.
As the saying goes, if you don't speculate for more than half a sentence, Xu Bufan angrily pulled Gao Gang away, and waved his hand again and again: "Go, go, go, if you are cowardly, stay in the city to guard your home, as for the words that prevent me from sending troops, don't say it again, otherwise you will be convicted of disturbing the morale of the army."
In one sentence, Gao Gang was speechless, and the latter sighed in his heart, shook his head slightly, and took two steps back, no longer persuading.
Now he could only silently pray that the rapid advance of the coalition forces was a mistake and not something else.
Xu Bufan ignored Gao Gang's persuasion, led the defenders, a total of 150,000 people, out of Huaning, and went straight to Xitang.
His movements were really faster than those in Tongcheng, first, he was the first to get the news, and second, Huaning was closer to Xitang than Tongcheng.
Although the coalition army went west to besiege Xitang, a large number of scouts were left here in Huaning, and as soon as the defenders of Huaning left the city, they were discovered by the coalition scouts and sent the news back to the coalition camp as soon as possible.
After Tang Yin received the information, he couldn't help but smile on his back, Xu Bufan was really a brave and reckless man, that is, he did not join forces with Tongcheng, and he came rashly, if he couldn't annihilate it in one fell swoop, he would be too sorry for the great fighter in front of him.
He immediately gave an order to convene all the generals in the army to discuss military affairs.
The generals of the five countries of Feng, Yu, An, Huan, and Zhen gathered together and filled the huge Chinese army tent.
After all the generals arrived, Tang Yin took the lead in speaking and said: "Huaning's chief general Xu Bufan has been tricked by our army, and the information he just got that Xu Bufan personally commanded the main force of the Zhen army and went out of the city to attack our army's joint camp. ” Kong Qing said indifferently: "The king has won the award." ” There was no joy or pride on his face, after all, it was the Zhen army that was plotted, it was his fellow brothers, and he knew very well in his heart that in the next battle, this Zhen army would suffer heavy casualties, but in order to save Zhen Guo, he had to sacrifice only some people.
Tang Yin looked at him deeply with a bright gaze, smiled leisurely, and didn't say anything more about this matter, then looked around at the generals and asked, "Which general is willing to meet the Zhen army?"
As soon as the words fell, he immediately continued: "What this king wants is not an ordinary small victory, but a complete victory, to annihilate the main force of the enemy, and to carry Xu Bufan's head back to return to this king."
Originally, there were many generals who were eager to try, but after listening to his subsequent additions, they immediately retreated.
The combat power of the Zhen army is there, even if it is a head-to-head confrontation, even if your own strength can be several times that of the enemy, it is not easy to annihilate the Zhen army of more than 100,000 people.
There was silence in the tent of the Chinese army, and it was silent, Tang Yin looked around left and right, raised his eyebrows, and asked: "Why is it that there are more than 100 generals in our army, and none of them dare to meet the Zhen army who went out of the city."
At this time, only listening to the sound of armor, Shangguan Yuanrang stepped out of the ranks, came to the tent, intervened in the salute, and said in a shocking voice: "King, the last general is willing to lead the army to battle, and will not cut off the head of Xu Bufan, and the last general will not return to the camp."
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Muqing also walked out and said, "King, the last general is willing to lead the soldiers and horses of the headquarters to follow the Yuan and let the general go with him."
At the critical moment, he had to rely on his brother Tang Yin to be disappointed in the generals of the three armies of Yu, An and Huan, he nodded and said: "Okay, Mu Qing and Yuan Rang will fight, Mu Qing will be the mainstay, Yuan Rang will be the auxiliary, and lead the headquarters of the Plains Army to meet the enemy, in addition, I will transfer 200,000 soldiers and horses from the three armies of Yu, An and Huan to the command of the two of you."
Three royal brothers and sisters, you have no opinion."
In the last sentence, he asked about the three people around him, Lingshuang, Yue Ze and Li Xin.
How could the three of them have any objections, none of his subordinates dared to stand up and take the initiative to ask for help, and now it is natural to obey the orders of the generals.
The three of them shook their heads together, and said with a smile: "It's good that Brother Wang is in charge." ” Tang Yin nodded and said: "Since Brother Wang and Sister Wang are not opposed, then the two of you should go and order troops quickly, but the ugly words can be said in front first, if you can't bring back Xu Bufan's head, then, you two will bring your own head to see me."
"The last general obeys the order" Xiao Muqing and Shangguan Yuanrang intervened to give a salute, and without saying a word, they threw off their robes, turned their heads and left.
Out of the Zhongjun tent, Shangguan Yuanrang's face was full of excitement, rubbing his fists and grinding his palms, eager to try.
Since the battle of Zhenzhen, the coalition forces have not fought a few head-to-head battles, all the way are in the siege of the city, now there is a rare opportunity to confront the enemy head-on, Shangguan Yuanrang also intends to show his skills.
He said to Xiao Muqing: "Mu Qing, you and I are going to order troops now, the whole army does not carry baggage, only rations, and marches at full speed, it is estimated that we will be able to meet the Zhen army tonight." ” Xiao Muqing was happy and said: "Yuan Rang is planning to fight a narrow battle with the Zhen army."
"Of course" Shangguan Yuanrang listened to his strange question, and asked rhetorically: "Don't you want to fight the enemy head-on, do you think of some tricks again?"

Shangguan Yuanrang and Xiao Muqing did not cooperate much, but he also knew that his fierce style was only one side of him, and the other side was treacherous and cunning, and he was good at using tricks.
Xiao Muqing smiled bitterly and said: "The king gave you and me an army of 300,000, but in addition to the Plains Army, can Yuan Rang trust the other 200,000 soldiers?"
Shangguan Yuanrang sneered and said, "If the combat power of those 200,000 people can withstand half of the combat power of the Plains Army, I will thank God." ” Xiao Muqing nodded and said: "Yes, so don't look at the fact that we have an army of 300,000 in our hands, but the combat power is not very strong, it is easy to go head-to-head with the Zhen army, defeat it, but it is not easy to annihilate it all."
Hearing him say this, Shangguan Yuanrang also responded understandingly, and after thinking for a while, he asked, "That Muqing, what good plan do you have?"
"Set up an ambush halfway, surround and annihilate it," Xiao Muqing said with a smile.
"Set up an ambush halfway" Shangguan Yuan was a little dumbfounded when he heard this, he muttered while thinking about it: "If I remember correctly, the road from Huaning to Xitang is a plain with a flat river, no mountains, no valleys, no ditches, no trenches, not even woods, where are we going to set up an ambush?"
"Yes, there is indeed no ambush between Huaning and Xitang, so our pockets can only be opened a little bigger, so big that the Zhen army can't detect it."
Xiao Muqing said confidently: "Of course, to weave such a big pocket, you have to need someone to help you and me."
