Chapter 851
In the dispute between the crown prince, ministers dare not take sides easily.
With Cheng Ping's identity and status, he has naturally been attracted by Lingyang and Linghua countless times.
However, the latter has always kept an appropriate distance from the two, neither far nor close.
After the Ling King decided to send troops to Huan, the next day, he also told Huan envoys with high sound, asking Huan to open the land entrance so that the Ling army could enter.
When the latter heard this, he immediately expressed his joy, which was a great thanks.
At the same time, Wuxia Pass.
After several battles, Xiang Ge's troops were less than 50,000. If he continued to fight like this, his entire army would probably be wiped out.
In addition to the Qin army's continuous attack strategy, the Huan army's desire to surrender has become increasingly strong.
It was only a matter of time before breaking this pass. At this time, Xiao Yuan had already received information from all parties in Huan's territory. After discussing with the generals, he immediately decided to order Zhou Ce to stay in Anyang for 5,000 troops. At the same time, he led two troops.
More than ten thousand people pretended to move towards Huandu and forced Xiang Ge to return to help.
Now, only Guangyuan's more than 30,000 prisoners can pose a threat to Anyang, and it is completely enough to stay in 5,000.
These 20,000 troops are just a restraint. In order to support the main force, it is not necessary to accelerate the breaking of Wuxia Pass.
With the issuance of military orders, the situation on the battlefield changed quickly.
The news came back to Huandu, and King Huan was shocked. No matter what the reason was, he could not let Zhou Ce's army approach the capital. With Guangyuan's criminal forces, it would be a bad thing for all parties.
Stable factors.
In this matter, Minister Guo Kai once again proposed to King Huan the strategy of expelling tigers and wolves.
He said: "Now the Spirit King has agreed to send troops to help, and is now transferring elite troops to march from Lukou. After a few days, he can reach the battlefield."
"Now, Zhou Ce and his subordinates are coming to the capital. Wuxia Pass is no longer important. The king ordered General Xiang Ge to return urgently to assist the capital."
"Then, the Qin army entered and the Ling army entered, and let the two of them fight to the death in our land."
To put it simply, this strategy is to use the existing troops to protect the capital, draw a circle, and fight Qin Ling in the circle. After the fight, he will come out to clean up the mess.
King Huan immediately adopted his opinion and a king's order was passed to Wuxia Pass. Xiang Ge, who had no intention of fighting again, directly led his troops to evacuate without saying a word.
As soon as the Huan army retreated, the Qin army began to enter Huan territory from Wuxia Pass.
Pinggu County.
This is the first county town after entering Wuxia Pass.
At this time, the Qin army was at the city.
Looking from the top of the city, the black armor and red tassels were covered with the sky and the end was endless.
Xiao Yuan also rode a war horse, located directly in front of the team.
Soon, the city gate opened.
The current Pinggu County Magistrate and a group of county officials walked out quickly.
He was wearing Huan State's official uniform. When he approached Xiao Yuan, he hurriedly knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "Pinggu County Magistrate He Song, leads his subordinates to welcome His Highness the King of Qin—"
"We officials, together with the people in the county, have always hoped that His Highness would enter Huan, just like a severe drought and a rainy rain--"
Xiao Yuan didn't care whether this was superficial or not, and smiled and said, "Mr. He, please get up quickly."
"Thank you, Your Highness——" He Song kowtowed respectfully. After getting up, he hurriedly gave in and bent down and stretched out his hand, "Please enter the city."
Xiao Yuan stopped talking nonsense and waved his hand directly forward, and the army began to enter Pinggu.
Before, this place was occupied by the ghost clan, and the people suffered many hardships, and the population was no longer as popular as before.
I thought that when the Qin army entered the city, the people would be somewhat panicked, but the fact was not so. Not only did it not cause any riots, but many people appeared on both sides of the street and stopped and watched.
In fact, this is not difficult to understand. Since the invasion of the ghost clan, King Huan's various actions have long been full of public grievances, and the people have a scale in their hearts.
The people just looked at the Qin army and had no hatred. Many people even hoped that the Qin King would come in early, kill the foolish monarch and rescue the people.
The Qin army had strict military disciplines and only marching from the streets, without any harming the people.
Looking at this situation, Shangguan Wenruo couldn't help but smash the horse's belly, approached Xiao Yuan, and whispered: "King, from the situation in Pinggu County, we can see that the people of Huan Kingdom do not oppose our army at all.
This is a great thing.”
Xiao Yuan glanced at him and smiled and said, "King Huan has long lost all the people's hearts. For us, in the future, Huan land will be crucial, so we must not harm the people at all."
"What the king said is that the support of the people will be restored in the future, and the soldiers will be free from blood." Shangguan Wenruo said.
After the rest of Pinggu, the county magistrate He Song naturally hurriedly held a banquet for entertainment.
Before, when Xiang Ge evacuated, the magistrate of Pinggu could have run away, but he stayed there. Obviously, he wanted to use this to surrender to Xiao Yuan.
Xiao Yuan did not touch him for his initiative to open the city, and he still verbally appointed him as the magistrate of Pinggu County.
The latter is extremely grateful and cannot stop showing loyalty.
At the same time, the southern part of Huan Kingdom.
General Ye Gui led the Ling army from Lukou to enter the territory of Huan Kingdom.
Judging from the military map, Xiao Yuan was on the left and he was below. He should have marched northwest to intercept the Qin army, but after he came in, he rushed to Fuyang County on the right side of Lukou.
The Ling Army's move was unexpectedly caused by the magistrate of Fuyang County, but the other party had already arrived and he did not dare to offend him. He could only lead a group of officials to greet him in person.
The gate of Fuyang City opened wide. After seeing the Ling Army, the county magistrate hurried forward, bowed to Ye Gui on the war horse, and said with a smile: "Hehe, after the general entered Huan, he should help our country and attack.
The northwest, I don’t know why I got under the jurisdiction of the lower …”
"Are you the governor of Fuyang County?" Ye Gui glanced at him, then glanced at the officials of the county government behind him.
"Yes, that's right." The Fuyang County Magistrate nodded and bowed.
As a result, Ye Gui was not polite and pointed a spear at the officials and said directly: "You can leave now. From now on, Fuyang will be taken over by this general."
"What... what." The Fuyang County Governor was a little unresponsive for a moment.
"Fuyang, this general has taken over. Do you need to repeat it again?" Ye Gui said coldly.
"Ah!?" The Fuyang County Magistrate heard it clearly. He was shocked at first, and then said in a trembling voice: "This, what does the general mean..."
"What does it mean? Get up!" Ye Gui said, and he used a spear to push him aside.
The latter staggered and almost fell down. He immediately reacted and couldn't help but shouted again: "General, you can't do this, you can't do this..."
