Chapter Two Thousand and Four Siege Wei to Save Zhao
For Yunli's unceremonious words, Sori didn't care, and said with a smile: "The subordinates naturally don't have that much ability, but at least they can take the lead for the prince and kill a few more enemies." ”
Yunli sighed lightly and said: "If we concentrate all our forces to attack the city, we can naturally force Geerdan to hand over the city, but the loss is too great, and there is no formal battle, so we will lose our troops and generals, do you think we can have a chance to sweep away Zhun Geer?" ”
Sori's face was a little unsightly, and he said in a deep voice after a while: "But now that Junggar has taken the city, we have no danger to defend, and even have to guard against their sneak attacks from time to time, except for forcibly attacking the city, my subordinates really can't think of any other way." However, with the artillery of the firearms battalion, the siege should be relatively easy, and it can also reduce the casualties of the soldiers. ”
"You're right, but it's not enough for the king, who wants to force Gerdan to surrender the city with minimal damage." After saying the sentence, Yunli fell into deep thought.
Sori knew that he was trying to figure out a way, but at the moment, he really couldn't think of any other way than to attack.
At this time, Yunli had almost walked out of the camp, and the city was standing not far away, and even the dark shadows patrolling the city walls could be seen.
Sori grabbed him and said, "Lord Wang, we can't go any further, if we go into their attack range, we will be very dangerous." ”
Yunli didn't speak, just blindly looked at the long city wall, this city is of great significance to the Qing Dynasty, but at the same time it is also a shame, so it must be recaptured, but to recapture it must pay huge losses to attack the city? No, there must be another way.
Here is only a dozen miles away from Junggar, and now Geerdan has arranged heavy troops in the city, in other words, Junggar is empty, if he can cross the city and attack Junggar directly, Geerdan will definitely not sit idly by, and will lead troops back to help, just like the "siege of Wei to save Zhao" when the Six Kingdoms were located.
After thinking carefully and confirming that this plan was feasible, Yunli immediately instructed Sori: "Order the army, tonight the king will lead 50,000 elite soldiers and horses, climb the mountains and bypass the city, and attack Dzungar!" ”
Sori was shocked: "Lord Wang, what are you going to do here?" ”
Yunli smiled coldly and said, "This king wants Geldan to take the initiative to give up the city." This time, you don't have to follow the king, stay here with a few lieutenants to prevent Geldan from sneaking attack, and if you find that Geldan is leading the main army out of the city, you will immediately gather all your forces and attack the city, this is our best chance to recapture the city, we must firmly grasp it. ”
Hearing this, Sori already understood Yunli's plan, and hurriedly said: "Lord Wang, if you attack Junggar, your subordinates will lead the troops, you are the commander of an army, you should stay in the rear, and you must not take risks." ”
Yunli shook his head and said: "You are not Geerdan's opponent, if you attack Zhungeer, I am afraid of nine deaths." ”
"But it's too dangerous to do this, if the prince is in any danger, this army will once again become leaderless, and lose the commander twice, do you think there will be such a thing as morale?"
Yunli smiled slightly and said: "When did you become so uninterested in this king, rest assured, this king will definitely come back alive, and this time it is just to lure them out of the city, and there may not be a battle." ”
"But ......" Sori was still about to be persuaded, and Yunli already said in a deep voice: "This king has made up his mind, you don't need to say more, in short, you just follow the king's instructions to pass the order." ”
Sori gritted his teeth, suddenly knelt down and said, "If the prince must go, please take his subordinates with him, otherwise his subordinates will never let go even if they disobey the military order." ”
Yunli stared at him for a long time, nodded and said: "That is the case, you should follow this king, tell those lieutenants, you must wake up the spirit of 120,000 points, don't miss this opportunity." ”
"Yes." After receiving the gift, Sori no longer hesitated, quickly went to the army to give orders, and personally selected 50,000 soldiers, all of whom were elite soldiers, including the gunners of the firearms battalion.
After nightfall, Yunli led Sori and an army of 50,000 to quietly climb the steep hillside. However, before leaving, Yunli whispered a few words with several lieutenants, and even Sori didn't know what he was talking about.
By the time the defenders in the city found traces of Yunli and the others in the faint sky, they were no longer in range, and could only watch them go away.
Geldan saw this scene from the clairvoyant mirror, and even saw the cold gaze when Yunli turned around. The next moment, he felt cold in his limbs, and there was a panic running wildly among the hundreds of limbs.
Their tribe is in the direction where Yunli went, which is not a coincidence, but Yunli is simply heading towards their tribe.
He couldn't take the city, so he wanted to conquer their tribe, so that they would lose their tribe and be trapped in the city. Although at the time of the deployment of troops, Geldan left tens of thousands of troops in the tribe, but he and Yunli were hand-to-hand, and suffered a lot of losses in his hands, even Barton died, although this person is the first time to lead troops, but it is definitely not easy to deal with, if he is really allowed to go like this, the tribe ...... I'm afraid of danger.
He should have led troops to rescue, but if he went, the city would be returned to the Qing Dynasty on his own initiative, presumably this was what Yunli wanted, but could he not go?
No, you can't! Knowing that this was Yunli's conspiracy, he had to do it, this feeling of being led by the nose is really bad!
However, he won't just let Yunli take advantage of his wishes, and want to guard this city and confront him, heh, dream! What he can't get, others can't even think of!
When several lieutenants stood on a high place and saw that Geldan was leading his troops out of the city, and was about to order the army to attack the city that was empty in defense, there was a sudden loud noise in the city, followed by a tremor of the earth, which made everyone stand unsteadily, and finally waited until the shaking of the earth passed, and after they could stand firmly, they looked at it, and the city that was still clearly visible just now was shrouded in a burst of smoke, and when the smoke dissipated, the city was in dilapidation, and the city tower was completely destroyed, unless the city tower was rebuilt, They could not use this place to stop Dzungar's attack.
When the lieutenants scolded Geldan for being despicable, Geldan led all the men out of the city to pursue Yunli with all his might, and finally stopped them when they reached the border of Junggar.
In the confrontation between the two armies, Geldan touched the wound on his ear and said in a dark voice: "Prince Guo is really a good plan, he actually used this method to lure this king out of the city, but it's a pity, you only brought so many tens of thousands of horses, I'm afraid there will be no return." ”
Yunli said nonchalantly: "The last time this king came here, he only brought some cronies, didn't he go back the same, and even charged some interest on King Khan, King Khan won't forget it so soon." ”
