Huan army's human sea tactics failed to play a role in xishuangguan.
First of all, xishuangguan is located between valleys with steep cliffs on both sides. When attacking the city, the Huan army can only attack one wall, which can not be besieged on all sides. No matter how many troops there are, it is useless to use them in front of xishuangguan. Secondly, the plain army's participation in the defense makes xishuangguan as solid as gold. Equipped with the steel helmets and armor provided by Anguo, the plain army's defense has been comprehensively improved. When it is put into the offensive and defensive war, it is more difficult to be killed by the enemy, and their counterattack can kill the enemy to the greatest extent.
The 600000 Huan army, led by Lu Chen, Jin Sheng and Jiang Yang, stormed in front of xishuangguan for three days and three nights, but failed to break the defensive line. There were mountains of corpses and rivers of blood outside xishuangguan.
The siege was blocked, which was bad for the Huan army, but it didn't come singly. The hundred battles army and the army directly under the Feng state and the Yan Xi army of an state suddenly appeared in the kongsang mountain as if they had fallen from the sky, and recaptured the Fengguan and Zhongqu pass previously occupied by the Huan army with lightning speed. In this way, Huan Jun was trapped in the more than 30 Li mountain path between Zhongqu pass and xisao pass.
The way out and retreat of the Huan army were blocked by the Feng and an armies and became a turtle in a jar. The situation turned sharply and fell into a precarious dilemma.
Lu Chen, Jin Sheng and Jiang Yang obviously didn't expect such a situation. They were a little flustered for a while. Until this time, they wanted to understand that their own side had been deceived. The enemy had already calculated that their own side would break through the South Road of kongsang mountain, prepared an ambush in advance, and closed the pass and Zhongqu pass. The easy loss of the pass was the enemy's intention, but the plan to lead the enemy deeper, But our side was just dazzled by the immediate victory and went deep into it rashly, which led to today's dilemma.
Now it's too late for them to figure out all this. Hundreds of thousands of troops are trapped in kongsang mountain. They can't enter or retreat. What's fatal is that they don't bring much food and grass. What can we do?
The confused Lu, Jin and Jiang hurriedly ordered the whole army to break through on both sides, continuing to attack xishuangguan all the way, and turning back all the way to attack zhongquguan.
When the Huan army went deep, zhongquguan was easy to fight. It took only three hours to win zhongquguan. Now they want to counterattack, but they are hit head-on by the defenders.
The pass in kongsang mountain is strong in the West and weak in the East. It is very difficult to fight from west to East. At this time, the main forces stationed in zhongquguan are the hundred war army, the army directly under Yan Xi and the Huanjun army without any large weapons. It is more difficult to fight zhongquguan than to ascend to heaven.
The Huan army's offensive began in the morning and lasted until the evening. The soldiers didn't even touch the edge of the city.
After a hard day of fighting, the whole army was tired. Just as the Huan army was going to retreat for rest, the garrison in the city suddenly came out. The leader was Shangguan yuanrang, known as the first general of the wind country and the God of war.
The counterattack of commander yuan rang by Shangguan was so fierce that it was even far better than the attack of the Huan army when it attacked the city. Where could the exhausted Huan army resist it? It was defeated by the stormy army, and countless people were killed and injured.
Shangguan yuanrang didn't chase and kill again and again. When Huan army collapsed and fled far, he withdrew his troops and withdrew to Zhongqu pass.
The defeat of Quguan in the attack made Huan army understand that it was impossible to break through from the rear. The only way out was xixiaoguan.
The desperate Huan army launched a more crazy attack on xishuangguan. The whole army took the Legion as the unit, divided into several waves and attacked the city day and night.
However, there are also a large number of defenders in xisao pass. In addition to 100000 plain troops, there are more than 100000 an troops. Coupled with sufficient preparations before the war, it is not very difficult to resist the offensive of Huan army.
The two sides have been engaged in a seesaw battle for more than a month.
During this period, it was not clear how many times the Huan army stormed xishuangguan, but after one month, the juncture of xishuangguan was still covered with the national flag of Anguo, and the Huan army was still unable to cross the minefield.
In this month's battle, the Huan army suffered heavy casualties, and more than 100000 soldiers died outside the xishuangguan pass alone.
Looking around, the corpse outside the city wall is more than two feet high. If the Huan army outside the city rushes to the corpse, it is only one foot away from the city head. As long as someone stands against the wall and another person steps on his shoulder, he can climb directly to the city head.
However, up to now, the Huan army has run out of ammunition and food. Let alone the food and grass have been eaten up, even the war horses in the army, and even the weeds and bark between Zhongqu pass and xisao pass have been eaten up. Next, the Huan army can only eat people if it wants to fill its stomach.
So far, the Huan army had no fighting spirit, and the soldiers were hungry. What was fatal was that various diseases began to spread again. A large number of the remaining soldiers who could fight fell ill and were unable to fight again.
Under such circumstances, the Huan army had no choice but to surrender, but the Feng and an armies had no intention of taking over.
Feng Jun was unwilling to accept the demobilized army, which was a consistent tradition, and Nie Ze also repeatedly said that if you want to win Huan quickly, you have to beat Huan once, which is unforgettable, and it will be easy to fight in the future.
If an Jun refuses to accept the surrender, it will be even simpler. Huan Jun has fought in the South and north of an Guo for so long, which has caused incalculable losses to an Guo. It is conceivable that an people have hatred for Huan Jun. now they are in control of their victory, where are they willing to accept Huan Jun?
Feng Jun and an Jun thought of going together and refused to surrender. Even if Sergeant Huan came to surrender with a white flag, they were ruthlessly shot by the soldiers of the two armies at the head of the city.
Six hundred thousand Huan troops were trapped in kongsang mountain. It took a total of two months. Finally, the Huanguo army led by the three military princes was completely destroyed in kongsang mountain. Even Lu Chen, Jin Sheng and Jiang Yang were not spared.
This war was the most disastrous one for Huan since the outbreak of the five nation war. So far, all the four major armies of Huan were killed and the main central army of Huan was lost. Only this war, Huan's vitality was seriously injured, and Huan's army basically withdrew from the battlefield of the five nation war.
The battle of kongsang mountain had a great impact. It not only weakened the military strength of the Sichuan Huanan alliance to the greatest extent, but also saw the dawn of victory for Anguo, who is also not optimistic about the situation. The war situation in the south of Anguo also changed. The Anguo army, who was chased and beaten by the Sichuan army, can turn back from time to time and take the initiative to launch an offensive against the Sichuan army. If we put it in the past, It's unthinkable.
When the battle report of kongsang mountain War I reached Tang Yin, it was just when he commanded the Fengyu coalition army to capture Daxing, the capital of the state of Huan.
Tang Yin was overjoyed to see the war report written by Xiao MuQing. He praised it several times on the spot. Once the war was won, the military strength of Huan state had existed in name only, so it should not be a worry in the future.
In this battle, Nie Ze undoubtedly played a vital role. It was he who predicted things like God, calculated the trend of the Huan army, and arranged the heaven and earth net in advance that led to this decisive victory.
Tang Yin rewarded Nie Ze in his reply, and ordered Xiao MuQing to command the plain army, the directly subordinate army and the hundred war army from kongsang mountain to march into the territory of the state of Huan, assist himself, and pursue Li Xin and the court of the state of Huan who fled to Lutai.
Now, Tang Yin has knocked down Huandu Daxing, but it is almost an empty city. Everything that can be taken away has been taken away by Li Xin. Even the people in the city have run 7788, and there is not much left. If the big capital is empty, it is like a ghost city. Tang Yin was certainly dissatisfied with the outcome of the war when he captured the capital of a country, not only did he not seize gold, silver and jewelry, but also did not even get armaments and materials.
On the day after the Fengyu allied forces captured Daxing, the hidden arrow came back with 200000 liang of silver.
Tang Yin, who heard the news, was quite surprised and asked Cheng Jin where he got so much silver. Cheng Jin explained to Tang Yin that there used to be a Yuexiu villa near Daxing. In it lived a famous rich man in Huan state. He had a lot of money and rich assets. This 200000 liang of silver was the subsidy given by Yuexiu villa to Feng Jun. to put it bluntly, it was to spend money to buy Ping'an and let Feng Jun not harass Yuexiu villa.
Tang Yin couldn't help laughing. What kind of rich man is he? He is 200000 liang of silver. He is really rich! Tang Yin just smiled at the matter and didn't take it too seriously.
That day, after having lunch with Yin Rou and lingshuang, Tang Yin was bored in the palace. He put on casual clothes and took only ah San and ah Si out of the palace quietly and strolled around Daxing city.
Since the Fengyu allied forces occupied Daxing, the military discipline has been strict, neither slaughtering the city nor looting everywhere. Many people of Huan who had fled the capital for refuge have returned to the city, of which the most are vendors. Hundreds of thousands of Fengyu allied forces have moved into the capital to eat, drink and buy things. How can businessmen miss such a big business opportunity, At this time, the streets and alleys in the city have begun to have popularity, which is very different from that when the Fengyu coalition army first entered the city.
Tang Yin and ah San and ah Si looked east and West, but they also found it very interesting. Knowing that Yin Rou and lingshuang love snacks, Tang Yin also specially bought some snacks such as dried fruits and preserves from the roadside vendors.
The Royal Palace is located in the north city. You can't go far to the north city gate. There's nothing to visit here. Tang Yin and a San and a Si are about to turn around and walk back. At this time, a group of jade soldiers with incomplete military appearance ran in from outside the North city.
These jade soldiers had crooked helmets and armours. Many of them still had colors on their faces. They were blue and swollen. They helped each other and came to the city swearing.
Seeing this, Tang Yin frowned and wondered, well, who beat Yujun into this shape?
He was about to go up and ask, but the jade army guarding the city gate rushed over first. One by one, with wide eyes, surprised and curious, asked, "what's the matter? Who beat the brothers?"
