Chapter 132 Eighty Thousand Tang Army(2/2)

The 500 Xiongqu Army joined the left and right Wuwei camps, which made many military generals envious.

This kind of special cavalry is not an elite force that anyone is qualified to recruit.

Zhang Hua recruited the Fire Bow Cavalry for Huang Zhong.

The fire bow cavalry requires advanced cavalry battalions (level seventh-level military building). There are advanced cavalry battalions in Linjin Town of the Han Dynasty of the Xiongnu, so Liu Yuan has a large number of cavalry.

The source of the fire bow cavalry can be Han people or Huns. They must be strong people and are good at equestrians and bow techniques.

Before the 80,000 Tang troops attacked, the first batch of fire archers might not be able to be recruited.

"Zhang Hua asked me to send troops to attack the Tang Dynasty. You are familiar with this person, what do you think?"

In Qin Xiaogong's territory, Qin Xiaogong recruited Meng Tian and Fusu to discuss whether to send troops to rescue him.

Prince Fusu said: "If your lips die and your teeth are cold, you can send troops."

Meng Tian disagreed: "Soldiers are a trick. The Tang Dynasty held 20,000 soldiers on the border to guard against us. It is better to wait until Zhang Hua and the Tang Dynasty suffer losses and see if they want to reap the benefits of the fisherman."

"Then it's what you see."

Duke Xiao of Qin did not refuse to send troops, nor did he agree to send troops. He waited and watched according to Meng Tian's proposal.

There were many small forces as buffer areas between Emperor Xuanzong of Tang and Duke Xiao of Qin. Emperor Xuanzong of Tang also held 20,000 troops on the border adjacent to Qin to guard against Duke Xiao of Qin.

Twenty thousand Tang troops were trapped in the fortress, which was enough to block the Qin army for a period of time.

There are still defenders in Chang'an Town.

When Qin Xiaogong sent troops, he would inevitably alarm the forces in the buffer area.

"And, from my opinion, An Yue, the prince in northern Qinchuan, may be trying to win over the surrounding forces, so we must guard against it."

Meng Tian's expression suddenly became serious.

In the north of Qinchuan, the prince Anyue was carrying tens of thousands of armor, many of which were cavalry, which made Meng Tian feel afraid.

Qin Xiaogong said strangely: "How can I see it?"

"In the buffer zone between us and the Tang Dynasty, there are several weak vassal states, without exception, and behind them are the shadow of the vassal Anyue."

"You mean that this person wants to unite with these weak princes and have some intentions?"

"Yes, although these weak princes have only ten thousand or even a few thousand, if they are integrated, they will be a force that cannot be underestimated."

"It seems that something is indeed strange."

Because Meng Tian reminded me, Qin Xiaogong ordered all villages and towns to strengthen their vigilance and search for detailed operations.

Qin Xiaogong's territory implemented a system of joint positions, and the law enforcement was strictly enforced. Under martial law, many detailed arrests were really arrested.

Chang'an Town, as the earth trembled, more than 100,000 residents looked around in panic.

On this day, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang upgraded Chang'an Town to Chang'an City.

Chang'an City has become the first small city in Guanzhong, making it even more prosperous!

A city lord's mansion rose from the ground and stood in the middle of Chang'an City.

Emperor Xuanzong of Tang stood in the high pavilion of the city lord's mansion and looked down at the entire Chang'an City.

Chang'an City, which has more than 100,000 civilians, has taken shape.

"I want to turn Chang'an into the center of the world and expand the territory of the empire to the Western Regions."

Emperor Xuanzong of Tang was strong in military strength and full of spirit.

His army was conquering cities and land everywhere.

Defeating Zhang Hua, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang had a population of three million and his strength was above all the forces in Qinchuan.

Not only Qinchuan, but also the princes in other places may not have the strength of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang.

Prime Minister Yao Chong bowed in the rear and then said, "The constables from Liushemen are in Chang'an City and are increasingly doing more and more detailed activities. Many of them are dead soldiers who choose to commit suicide after being discovered by Liushemen. I think there may be a conspiracy behind them. Eighty thousand troops are expeditioning the east, and Chang'an is empty..."

Emperor Xuanzong of Tang looked east: "I ordered King Jiangxia to capture Huayin within one month and face the two counties of Jin. There are still 20,000 troops in Chang'an City, 30,000 on the north and 20,000 on the west, totaling 70,000. Even if someone wants to take advantage of the situation, he will not be able to capture Chang'an within one month. Chang'an is already a city."

In Fenghuang Town, 80,000 Tang troops gathered one after another, and the food, grass and supplies were in place.

The chief general of the Tang army, Li Daozong of Jiangxia, received an order from Emperor Xuanzong of Tang to destroy Zhang Hua within one month.

"Eighty thousand troops, one month is enough."

Li Daozong traveled over and became the leader of the Tang army on the Eastern Front with his clan status.

Li Daozong is not only a noble status, but also one of the clans with the strongest military capabilities.

Because Li Daozong was Li Shimin's cousin, he participated in a series of wars in the Tang Dynasty and experienced many battles.

Emperor Xuanzong of Tang urged 80,000 Tang troops to attack and destroy Zhang Hua as soon as possible after the arrival of food, grass and supplies, because other forces were also eyeing him.

Eighty thousand Tang troops successively set up camps and marched along the Wei River.

Above the Wei River, a large number of Tang army's canal ships covered the water, and the Tang Dynasty's flags covered the sky with great momentum.

Golden swords and iron horses, long spears like forests!

All the leading Tang army generals were confident.

These are 80,000 Tang troops!

"Feng Yi, Cheng Yaojin, Niu Jinda guarded Dazhong Town, Chen Gong, and Yan Xiang were the army."

Zhang Hua left behind three generals, two strategists and 30,000 soldiers, and then personally led his troops to guard Huashan Town to resist the 80,000 Tang troops.

"This time the Tang army is coming with great force. Huashan Town may be defeated at any time. Do you really want to follow me to Huashan Town?"

Zhang Hua summoned Mulan, Sun Shangxiang, Liang Hongyu, and Liu Rushi to choose whether to stay in the relatively stable rear or to follow the army to the dangerous front.

"The young master saved Mulan's life. In the future, Mulan is willing to follow her no matter where the young master is."

"Dad entrusted Hongyu to Young Master, Hongyu is willing to die."

"Liu Rushi is the maid of the young master and is willing to serve him personally."

Mulan, Liang Hongyu, and Liu Rushi all expressed their opinions.

Sun Shangxiang curled her lips: "Then I will be reluctant to help you guard Huashan Town."

"You don't go."

"Ha? I'm just talking nonsense, and I can't change what I say!"

Sun Shangxiang was anxious, but she was unwilling to change her words and was still showing off.

Zhang Hua led his troops to join forces with Deng Ai, Zhao Ponu and others, and the troops reached 40,000, defending Huashan Town to the death.

Craftsman Kuai Xiang built thirty-six arrow towers here, and Zhang Hua deployed 60 large-scale bed crossbows to kill the Tang army.

"I didn't expect that the Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, Li Longji, had just defeated Liu Yuan, and the reaction of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang was so fast. No wonder Emperor Xuanzong of Tang could become the overlord."

Zhang Hua inspected the defense of Huashan Town, and all the bows and arrows plundered from the Huns and Han countries were transported to Huashan Town.

"Lord, the Tang army is coming!"

The Iron Eagle Scout discovered the location of the Tang army in advance.

The Tang army formed a long snake formation and marched along the Wei River. On the surface of the Wei River, Zhang Hua could already see the Tang army's canal ships!

Deng Ai, Zhao Ponu, Huang Zhong, Liang Hongyu and other military generals all climbed the city and looked into the distance.

The atmosphere in Huashan Town suddenly became tense.

Forty thousand defenders crowded on the city wall nervously, watching the most elite Tang Dynasty legion in Qinchuan.

Before the Tang soldiers arrived, they arrived first!

The Tang army's flags appeared from the horizon. The Tang army cavalry held the flag in both hands and made a way forward. The Tang army cavalry all over the mountains seemed to be surging with tides, and the bright light armor reflected dazzling light under the sunlight.

The Tang army was solemn and oppressed, and its strict lineup was terrifying.

"This is the invincible Tang army in Qinchuan."

Zhang Hua personally faced Tang Jun for the first time, and felt a sense of suffocation.

The 80,000 Tang troops brought a sense of oppression far exceeds that of Liu Yuan's 60,000 troops.

All Tang troops arrived one after another, occupying the terrain, building camps, and then quickly assembled siege equipment and siege them step by step.

The Tang army camp stretched for more than ten miles and mainly relied on the supplies of canal ships from the Wei River. The civilians transported bags of grain and grass to the Tang army camp.

During the camp deployment, more than a dozen Tang army generals came to the city to observe the reality of the defenders.

These Tang army generals relied on their excellent martial arts skills and only brought a small number of cavalry.

"Maybe the last one can shoot at the opponent's general."

Huang Zhong stood beside Zhang Hua, closed one eye, stretched out his thumb, and gestured through the reference object to the distance between himself and the chief general of the Tang army, and suddenly spoke wildly.

The head of the Tang army was outside the range of ordinary archers, but the strong bow used by Huang Zhong had a longer range.

Therefore, Huang Zhong judged that the leader of the Tang army was within his range!

Zhang Hua believed Huang Zhong's judgment and couldn't help but feel excited: "Let's try it out."
