Chapter 115 Zhang Xun was ordered to abandon the north gate and lose the city, Yu Shuai vomited blood
In the camp of the defenders at the north gate of Wuwei City, Zhang Xun was paying close attention to the movements of the Sui army at the west gate and the south gate at this time, and from time to time there were reports from the horses entering the account. Zhang Xun kept walking back and forth in the tent. He is aware of the plan of the crown prince Yang Yong, and as the prince's henchman, he must carry out the arrangement of the crown prince Yang Yong, which has nothing to do with whether it is correct or not.
Different from Zhang Xun's anxiety at this time, Tuyuhun Guoshi Bogra was sitting leisurely on the chair in the tent and sipping tea, although he was a Tuyuhun person, he still liked the Han people's tea very much.
"Mr. Bogra, the Malay newspaper has reported that the Sui army outside the west gate and the south gate has followed the Kadir army, and now the defenders in the city are empty, why don't you see the Tuyuhun army that Mr. said about robbing the city?" Zhang Xun asked puzzled, the order he got was to seize the city when the Tuyuhun army took advantage of the emptiness of Wuwei City, so he took advantage of the situation to defend the city and then led the troops to leave from the east gate and return to the prince of Pingliang City, the task was completed, and this was the critical moment. If the Sui army out of the city is allowed to turn back, all arrangements will be played!
"General Zhang, don't panic, after the Zhongwen Department is ten miles away from the city, my Tuyuhun army will arrive." Bogra didn't even look at Zhang Xun, who was as panicked, and said slowly while drinking tea. There is only one thing that seems to be a little unexpected by him, that is, this simple plan to lure the snake out of the hole actually attracted the main force of the Sui army, including the Jin Dynasty in the south of the city, to move together. According to his earlier prediction, if he could not attract Yu Zhongwen's troops to pursue out of the city, he instructed the Kadir troops to besiege the city again and storm the west gate and the south gate, and after attracting all the troops and horses of Yu Zhongwen, the Tuyuhun army ambushed outside the north gate was raiding the north gate, and the north gate guards could abandon the defense and leave, so as to open the gap and achieve the goal of finally capturing Wuwei City. Now it seems that progress is much easier than I expected.
"General, two miles outside the city, a large group of Tuyuhun soldiers and horses appeared, as if they wanted to rob my north gate city." A scout suddenly rushed into the account with an urgent report.
"The general will order the whole army to go to the city to defend." Zhang Xun finally waited for the news, and his heart was shocked.
"The general can order the Sui army defending the city to fire a volley of arrows, and then abandon the city and go through the east gate. When you arrive in Pingliang City, you will see Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and bring him a message, so that you can immediately start the next plan. Hehe! Bogra said with a smile as he gently put down his teacup.
After Zhang Xun glanced back at this Tuyuhun national teacher, he did not speak, but took the pro-soldiers outside the account to the city tower.
"Come on, go, plant the banner of my Tuyuhun country outside the account, turn the charcoal fire more vigorously, and the national division is here waiting for the arrival of the king of Kadir County." Bogra said to his subordinates with a look of being in his chest.
At this time, on the wall of the north gate of Wuwei City, the 4,000 Hongnong Sui army that came to take over the defense has been in full battle, and they have already recovered their combat strength after accepting the new equipment of Yang Guang, the king of Jin, and each of them has a bow and arrows and enough arrows issued by the logistics department of the king of Jin. At this time, the arrow was already on the bow, and he only waited for the command of the leading general to shoot the angry arrow at the enemy.
The waiting time was long, and the soldiers waited quietly with anger in their eyes for the Tuyuhun cavalry to enter the firing range.
"Order, release the arrows." Zhang Xun saw that the Tuyuhun army had entered the firing range on the city tower, so he immediately ordered the arrows to be released, and the herald waiting on the side had already been unable to hold it back, and when he saw the main general's order, he immediately beat the big drum behind him.
Hearing the sound of drums, the archers lined up along the walls shot their first arrows. Suddenly, he shot down the front row of Tuyuhun cavalry, and this round of bows and arrows killed and wounded as many as 800 Tuyuhun cavalry. However, the Tuyuhun cavalry did not stop attacking, and still galloped towards the city gate.
The second round of arrow rain covered the Tuyuhun cavalry like an overwhelming cover, and this round of arrow rain took away the lives of at least more than 1,000 Tuyuhun cavalrymen.
By the time the fifth round of arrow rain went out, the Tuyuhun cavalry besieging the city was already very close. The Hongnong elite soldiers defending the city have changed from projectiles to fixed-point direct shots, constantly harvesting the lives of the Tuyuhun cavalry.
"Order, stop archery, the whole army retreat from the city wall, and abandon the north gate." Zhang Xun saw that the resistance scene starring him had been fully performed, and if he did not retreat, he would be entangled by the Tuyuhun siege army, so he hurriedly gave an order. It was only this order that stunned the herald behind him, wondering if his ears had heard it wrong. Hurriedly asked: "Does the general want the whole army to remove the city wall and abandon the north gate?" ”
"Go and give the order, Ben will have his own arrangements." Zhang Xun turned back to the Hongnong herald and said viciously.
The herald had no choice but to issue a slogan for withdrawal. Soon the Hongnong soldiers defending the city were all concentrated under the city, but everyone was whispering, panicking, and did not understand why they gave up resistance at this critical moment, it can be imagined that at this time, the Tuyuhun soldiers outside the city were trying to climb the city and were about to climb the city wall, which meant that Wuwei City was about to lose.
"Soldiers, Ben will be ordered by Shangfeng to abandon the north gate and retreat to Pingliang City, and Ben will immediately leave the east gate." After speaking, Zhang Xun took the lead in leading the generals to the east gate as soon as he reined in his war horse.
At this time, the city wall had already seen a Tuyuhun soldier climb the city wall, and the Hongnong elite soldiers had no choice but to run to the east gate together.
At this point, Bogra's plan to conquer the city was successful, and Kadir occupied the north gate of Wuwei City without much resistance. Subsequently, under the command of Bogra, he divided his troops to attack the west gate and the south gate from the city, and the Sui army defending the city. Due to the small number of defenders at each gate, they could not resist the Tuyuhun army that appeared from behind, and the Sui army of the West Gate and the South Gate collapsed. The gates of Wuwei City are full of the banner of Tugu Hun Kingdom.
Yu Zhongwen, who had no idea, was still chasing and killing the Tuyuhun army that was running and stopping at this time, and the Sui army had won a lot.
Yang Er felt more and more uncomfortable, because this scene seemed to have been seen somewhere. Suddenly, Yang Er came back to his senses. He secretly screamed in his heart, because Yang Er suddenly remembered the autumn hunting in the enclosure of Lintong Mountain a few months ago, how could the actions of the retreating army of Tuyuhun be so similar to the female mountain deer he was chasing during the autumn hunting?
"Quick, catch up with Yu Dashuai, don't chase anymore, I'll wait for the plan!" Yang Er hurriedly shouted to the Golden Armor General who was following him to take on the responsibility of guarding again, and at the same time he hurriedly restrained the war horse that was still about to run forward.
When Jin Jia heard Yang Er's words, he was also taken aback, and he didn't have time to ask in detail, so he hurriedly patted his horse to find General Yu Zhongwen.
"Yu Dashuai, my lord asked Dashuai not to chase anymore, and he also fell into his plan. Quick back. Jin Jia finally caught up with Yu Zhongwen, who was constantly killing Tuyuhun and falling single cavalry in front, and hurriedly shouted.
"What's the trick? The Tuyuhun soldiers are now in the midst of a rout, and the opportunity is rare, how can they not chase it. Yu Zhongwen panted and grabbed the war horse and asked the golden armor that stopped him. When he looked back, he saw that King Jin was rushing towards him.
"His Royal Highness the King of Jin, why don't you chase it?" Yu Zhongwen was puzzled and asked Yang Er, who had just caught up.
"Yu Shuai, this king intuitively feels that the Tuyuhun army is defeated and deceitful, and it seems that he is deliberately luring our army to chase after him, so he should return to Wuwei City as soon as possible to garrison." Yang Er had no reason to make sense, so he had to tell the feeling in his heart.
"King Chitose of Jin, since he has made a surprise attack on Tugu Hun Ya City, it is estimated that Murong Shan Yu has been captured, and there is no reason for the army of the King of Kadir County to not withdraw, how can there be fraud?" Yu Zhongwen was obviously not persuaded by Yang Er's words, and was still unwilling to give the order to return to the army.
At this time, He Ruobi and Han Baohu also caught up from behind, stopped behind the Jin Wang's horse, and took a breather.
"Yu Shuai is right, my subordinate general Wu Yun Zhaoqin led 10,000 elite cavalry to rush thousands of miles to take the city of Yuya, and it should be done in terms of time, but this king is only an estimate, and he has not received any conclusive news. I thought that it was because of this that the besieging enemy army retreated in panic, but after chasing here, the king felt bad, and saw that the retreating army did not seem to be completely defeated, but more like they were constantly luring our army to pursue. Yu Shuai still listened to the king's words, and it was most stable to return to the army quickly. ”
"Yu Dashuai, the old man thinks it's almost the same, I've been chasing for more than 30 miles, Tuyuhun is also a cavalry, and I can't kill a few more if I chase it down, so let's collect the troops!" The veteran Han Baohu stepped forward to speak for Yang Eryuan. At this time, he and He Ruobi also killed a lot of Tuyuhun cavalry, and the second elder even won the heads of several Tuyuhun generals, and his physical strength would be exhausted, so he agreed to return to the army to garrison the city.
Seeing that the two old princes in the court said this, Yu Zhongwen had to consider returning to the army, in his heart, the king of Jin was young and had no experience in big wars, and he could choose not to listen to his words, but the words of the two elders in the court were extremely weighty, and he did not dare to refute with his qualifications in Yu Zhongwen. Just as he was about to give the order to stop the pursuit and withdraw the whole army, suddenly three earth-shattering cannons came from the direction of Wuwei City behind him. Hearing the sound of cannons, Yu Zhongwen, Yang Er, He Er, and Han Erlao all panicked. Yu Zhongwen shouted even more urgently: "Oh no, Wuwei City is lost, go back quickly." After saying that, he hurriedly turned the horse's head and ran back first, and all the troops behind him suddenly woke up when they saw this, and hurriedly turned the horse's head and hurriedly ran back with their commander, and no longer cared about the Tuyuhun army that was still retreating.
Yang Er also felt a burst of regret in his heart, and hurriedly ordered his subordinates to rush back to their hometown.
When Yu Zhongwen and Yang Er and other Sui army generals rushed to the city and saw the Tuyuhun King Banner planted all over the city, Yu Zhongwen suddenly shouted, spit blood and went straight to the horse.
He Ruobi and Han Baohu, who were accustomed to this kind of scene, couldn't help but scold Tugu Hun for being cunning.
Only Yang Er was silent and shook his head. He knew that he was responsible for the loss of the city this time, and it was he who shook General Yu Zhongwen, who had always been known for his stability, which caused Wuwei, a city on the western vertical border, to fall into the hands of the king of Tuyuhun Kadir County, and thus the western gateway of the Great Sui was opened.
"Brother Shi, most of the Tuyuhun behind him reflexively killed, and they are about to flank our army, so make a decision quickly." At this time, the dust on her side had already pinched her fingers before everyone noticed that a pursuer was coming, and she had already calculated that the pursuer behind her was about to arrive.
"General Xiong, order all departments to quickly retreat to the defense of Dazhai outside my south gate. By your palace, no matter what, stop the pursuers, and go quickly. Yang Er listened to the reminder of Chuchen's words, and immediately cheered up, Yu Zhongwen vomited blood and fainted, now nearly 100,000 Sui troops are all based on his generals' orders, he must make a decision immediately, otherwise there is a risk of being attacked from inside and outside, so he urgently ordered the generals around him to be majestic and wide.
"Okay! The lord went first, and the general ordered the whole army to retreat to Dazhai in the south of the city. The majestic sea had no fear, but showed a cheerful look, and hurriedly led the pro-army to pass the order.
Immediately, under the leadership of Yang Er and the elders of He and Han Er, the Sui army outside the city quickly turned to the south of the city. At this time, Xiong Kuohai led 5,000 cavalry and 5,000 chariots, horses and infantry, and had already set up a position on the road leading to the south of the city.
I saw that 500 infantry carriages were lined up in two columns, and the infantry on each vehicle was lined up in two rows, with the infantry in the front row kneeling and holding bows and arrows, and the infantry in the rear taking a standing posture and also holding bows and arrows. A full 5,000 infantry and 5,000 bows and arrows were ready for battle. Behind the infantry carriage was a neat phalanx of 5,000 cavalry of the vast sea and the generals, all holding horizontal swords and round shields without fear.
Seeing the pursuing Tuyuhun troops gradually approaching, Xiong Kuohai gently urged his war horse to move forward alone from the middle passage of the car formation, and came to the front of the whole army array.
The Tuyuhun army stopped at a stone's throw away, and the leader of the army was Aksakar, a general under the King of Kadir. The king of Kadir and the national division of Bogra are now stationed in Wuwei City, it is this Aksakar who led the Tuyuhun army to deceive and defeat the retreating army to lure the defenders of Wuwei City to pursue, and after hearing the sound of the three cannons, he stopped the pace of retreating and commanded the whole army to fight back, the battlefield situation suddenly changed, and the Sui army fled frantically. Seeing that the men and horses of the Sui army that were being pursued had already taken up their positions, Aksaka also stopped the pursuit and opened a frontal battlefield in one stone's throw away.
"Hu Luan dares to fight with a certain family?" The majestic sea was in front, holding a double axe and shouting at the Tuyuhun army.
"Who are you the Sui general in front? This general is the former general of the king of Kadir County, Aksakaar. Akssaka also leaned forward and asked loudly.
"A certain Jin King Chitose sits down and the pioneer general Taihang is majestic and the sea is also, can Hu Lu dare to fight with a certain family?" Xiong Kuohai raised his axe and challenged loudly, with a look of contempt in his eyes.
"Who can go to war, and take his life for Ben?" Aksakar turned around and asked the Tuyuhun generals behind him, in his opinion, the status of this general in front of him was low, and there was no need to fight by himself.
"The general retreats, Timar is willing to go out to battle to take the head of this black-faced Sui general." Among the generals, a young general jumped out of his horse. In Aksakaar's opinion, this will be General Timar, one of the four fierce generals under his command. Aksaka nodded, agreeing to fight. This general Timar is a warrior who stood out from the grassland competition of Tuyuhun country, and is one of the four young fierce generals in the army of the king of Kadir County.
Seeing that the opposite army was in the middle of the prancing horse to kill a general, I saw that this general was tall and ugly, holding a big axe to open the mountain, urging the horse to rush towards him.
"My son, axe grandpa, I am your ancestor." Xiong Kuohai couldn't help laughing, urging the war horse to run towards the general.
