Chapter 253: The Confrontation of the Yellow Sands
Yellow sand stopper.
The 200,000 soldiers of the North Court and the 200,000 Turkic iron cavalry led by Guli Keji have been confronting each other for almost a month.
During the month, the Turkic cavalry attacked Huangsha more than 20 times, and every other day or two, they launched attacks.
And as time went on, the Turkic Iron Cavalry became even more impatient.
At this time, in the main tent of the Turkic camp, the new Khan Gulikji looked at the generals under his command with a gloomy face and gloomy eyes.
He asked angrily, "Wolf Kuru, the leader of the wolf riders, hasn't there been any latest news yet?" ”
"Back to Khan, no." The leader of the leopard riders, Ba Natuha, lowered his waist and replied to Guli Keji.
"Bang!"
"It's been more than ten days, and there has been no news yet, what the hell is he doing with Wolf Kuru!" After hearing this, Guli Keji slapped the low table in front of him violently, and roared angrily, "Could it be that he wolf Kuru, is this a two-hearted heart?" Or is he still thinking about my useless father Khan! ”
"This ......"
The Turkic generals all hesitated, not knowing how to answer Guli Keji, they looked at each other one by one, and bowed their heads again.
Some of them were under the command of the old khan, and after Guli Keji seized the throne, Mingzhe took refuge in Guli Keji.
Among them, Wolf Kuru is the only old man who still holds military power.
Because the wolf rider is special, they Turks use the wolf as a totem, so the wolf Kulu, who masters the wolf ride, has a very high reputation among the Turks.
He can't be touched lightly.
For example, the leaders of these eagle riders and leopard riders did not have too high prestige, so they were all replaced by Guli Keji and arranged for their own henchmen to take the upper position.
At this time, when Guli Keji saw the other generals, he lowered his head and buried deeply, so he moved his gaze to the leader of the Eagle Cavalry, Ashina Yun.
Ashinayun felt Guli Keji's gaze, and immediately took a step forward and said, "Khan is angry, although Wolf Kuru is the old Khan's person, I have drunk a few meals of wine and eaten meat with Wolf Kuru. ”
"From his words, it is not difficult to hear that the Turks to whom he is loyal will not be half-hearted because of the change of Khan's position."
"Huang Shasai is far from the journey to Xianquan Town, and it is also mixed with the cannibalistic half-Gobi, maybe the messenger soldiers are delayed on the road."
"And Wolf Kulu has reported that Xianquan Town was taken by him more than ten days ago, and in some time I think Datang will not sit idly by, maybe he is now dragged by the Tang generals near Longyou Road, and there is no chance to send back the letter."
"Even so, Ben Khan can't wait for news from him, and he can't sleep well." Guli Keji listened to Ashinayun's words, his face was a little better, and he was anxious in his heart.
The yellow sand plug is almost full-term, and it has not yet been captured.
If you can't get the wolf Kulu, lead 100,000 wolf horsemen to raid from the rear of the yellow sand stopper, the grain and grass are small, and you can mobilize from the rear.
The most important thing is the military spirit.
After a long attack, the two cavalry soldiers of the Eagle and Leopard became more and more tired, and their morale fell to the deep valley.
At this time, Bana Tuha frowned and said, "Khan, the only way to do this now is to send messengers to contact Wolf Kulu, or send someone back to the Turkic court to send back the Khan's order, so that the tiger. Riding with elephants came to Huangshasai. ”
"At that time, my Turkic 400,000 sons will definitely be able to break through the yellow sand plug and behead Li Chenzhong!"
"So be it." Gulikji pondered for a moment and continued, "However, both sides have to send people, and I must know what the wolf Kuru is doing at this time!" ”
"Obedience Khan."
All the generals bowed their heads together.
"Okay, Ashina Yun stays, and the rest will retreat." Gulikji waved his hand in annoyance, for these generals, he sometimes really wanted to kill them.
But if you do this, it will definitely make the eagle and leopard two cavalry warriors have a pimple in their hearts, and maybe it will lead to a mutiny at that time.
This is what Guli Keji does not want to see.
So he came to attack Tang, but he also wanted to let these veteran generals die on the battlefield and imperceptibly eliminate them one by one.
"Khan, I wonder if the Khan left me for the sake of the army?" Ashinayun, the leader of the Eagle Cavalry, saw that the rest of the people had walked out of the camp and came to Guli Keji's side and asked.
"Not bad." Guli Keji glanced at Ashina Yun appreciatively, and then said, "If this continues, I'm afraid that the two horsemen of the eagle and leopard will not be able to hold out before the two horsemen of the tiger and elephant arrive, and the morale of the army will collapse." ”
"So, Ben Khan wants to have a fight with that Li Chengzhong, a fight!"
"In order to improve the morale of our army, when the tiger and elephant two horsemen arrive, or the wolf Kuru raids the rear of the yellow sand plug, our army will definitely take the entire North Court with the momentum of breaking the bamboo!
"Even take the whole of Anxi, I don't know what the cloud thinks?"
"Feasible." Ash Nayun didn't think about it, nodded in agreement, "Khan, my Turkic warriors are all good sons, and the generals are even more brave and invincible, this time the general Li Chengzhong will be defeated!" ”
Speaking of this, Ash Nayun frowned and said, "However, I am afraid that Li Chengzhong will refuse the invitation of the fighting generals, after all, Li Chengzhong will think that it is a conspiracy of our army to capture the Huangsha Plug." ”
"This is also all the worries of Ben Khan, I don't know what way Nayun can get that Li Chengzhong to agree, our fighting general's invitation?" Guli Keji looked at Ashina Yun, his eyes full of expectation.
He couldn't think of it, but I hope Ashinayun has a way.
"There's one." Hearing this, Ashinayun's eyes flashed slightly.
"Oh, come quickly." Guli Keji is overjoyed.
Ashina Yun said, "Make a blood oath, Dao Ming this time the fighting generals, soldiers on both sides, not to be dispatched, in order to show the sincerity of my Turks, I eagle and leopard two horses, one mile back." ”
"In this way, even if our Turks ignore their oath and want to attack, Li Chengzhong and them will have no fear and have their own time to return to Sene."
"Okay, just according to the cloud." Guli Keji stroked his palms and smiled, as long as his morale was restored, the others would be fearless.
Guli Keji thought about it for a while, and then began to write a document to Li Chengzhong, inviting him to be a general......
At this time, Li Chengzhong was in the middle of the city tower in the yellow sand, sitting on a chair, watching the banners displayed outside the fortress, his eyes were as cold as frost.
Since a few days ago, his injuries have healed a little, but he can get out of bed and walk, and he has been staying on top of the Yellow Sand Fortress Tower.
Even in the face of the Turkic siege, it will not retreat.
Let the soldiers of Beiting, the morale of the army be calm, and the morale is high, and they repelled wave after wave of attacks.
By now, the yellow sand plug had no equipment to defend the city, only gold juice, and even the rolling wood was gone, all of which were used up and burned under the walls.
If the Turks attacked the city again, they could only rely on the castle tower and engage in hand-to-hand combat.
However, Li Chengzhong still firmly believed that his Beiting soldiers would consume the Turkic eagles and leopards.
Or outside the fortress, his 100,000 iron cavalry, and 100,000 foot soldiers are weaker than the Turkic 200,000 iron cavalry, but in the offensive and defensive battles of this tower, his Beiting soldiers are no worse than the Turks!
At this time, the wind picked up again, and a Beiting general walked over with a cloak and said softly, "General, the wind is blowing outside......
