Chapter 118: Decision
The sudden appearance of the Sui cavalry made Yu Wenwen doubt his life for a while, he felt that he was in the game world, and the system made a mistake and brushed out the monsters that should not appear, otherwise he would not be able to explain everything in front of him. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
He only felt that his head was messy, and at first he thought that he had hallucinations due to his excessive masturbation, but then he thought that he had never masturbated, so this group of people wearing yellow uniforms must be Sui Jun.
Why did you say that the Taihang Eight Sects were blocked? Where did these Sui soldiers come from? More than a thousand cavalry, hey!
The scale of more than 1,000 cavalry can not always be climbed over the mountain on horseback, so it means that one of the eight Taihang mountains was opened by the Sui army, looking at the direction of the other party's attack, about the Jingcheng north of Xiangguo and west of Zhending.
It is said that the mouth of Jingcheng is more than 200 miles away from Xiangguo, and Xiangguo is about 40 or 50 miles from here, so it is a typical tactic of cavalry galloping 300 miles day and night to raid.
The cavalry that can march at night is elite, and a thousand elites can defeat tens of thousands of enemy troops if they are used well, not to mention that the traveling team of the Son of Heaven on Yuwenwen's side is also mixed with many palace maids, eunuchs, miscellaneous servants and civil officials, and it is not a real army at all.
What to do? Should it shrink up to resist the onslaught of the cavalry, or let the leader go first? It's not easy to do any of them!
This team is escorted by the cavalry of the forbidden army, plus armed palace guards, and there are no less than a thousand combatants, so it seems that it can fight, but the bad thing is that there are still a large number of non-combatants, and these pig teammates will only do bad things.
Now it is a regular marching queue, and on the whole, it is a long snake formation, if you want to shrink into several regiments immediately, if it is the Tiger Forest Army, it is no problem, because this is a compulsory subject, but where can those palace maids, eunuchs and other non-combatants do it.
The infantry resisted the cavalry, relying on the spear formation with a bow and crossbow to counterattack the harassment, where can the current situation be able to quickly form a formation, not to mention that most people don't even have spears in their hands.
The forbidden army can dismount and hold a group with the guards, but a large number of non-combatants scurrying around will hinder the speed of gathering, and the cavalry of the Sui army is now only about two or three miles away from the team, and they rushed to it in an instant, where is there so much time.
If the formation fails, the cavalry can scatter the infantry several times their own with a single charge, and then a tragic massacre, the infantry in the form of skirmishers is simply unable to fight back against the cavalry harvest.
In this way, there is only "let the leader go first", because the goal of the Sui army is obviously the emperor.
How did Sui Jun know that Zhou Tianzi was here? There is no time to think about this, the emperor's safety is very important, since he can't hold it, he has to transfer it, and while the Sui army is still some distance, he quickly takes the emperor away.
Run to the south, there are more than ten miles to Yiyang City, enter the city to be safe, Yiyang is the state of Zhaozhou, the defenders will not be less, as long as the city gate is closed, you can wait for help, and even when you rush through the water, you can defend the stone bridge, and cut off the pursuers behind.
Then gather the surrounding Zhou army Qin Wang, Yiyang is only about a hundred miles away from Yecheng, the army will soon come to support, the sneak attack of the Sui army will definitely not dare to stay for a long time and must retreat, so that the emperor's life will not be in danger.
But the question arises: the emperor will go first, so who will break the last?
The cavalry of the Sui army has entered the state of charge, the speed is very fast, they take the emperor on the horse and slip away, after the horse speeds up, those Sui troops are afraid that they are also approaching, so they have to organize manpower to intercept, so who will organize?
It is said that the emperor wants to give an order, but this young man is stupid if he can't do it in such an emergency, so it is Chi Jing, the captain of the left palace who is in charge of security, who is in charge, but it is impossible for this person to stay.
His mission is to protect the emperor, and at the same time to monitor the emperor, to watch this Buddha statue for the Wei Chi family, so it is necessary to protect the emperor closely, and he will only escort the emperor to evacuate, and it is impossible to stay and command the interception.
From the moment he saw that the enemy was about to be killed, Yuwen Wen had already made a decision, he turned over and dismounted and ran to the front of the Son of Heaven's car, ignoring the eunuch's stop, forcibly broke through the interception and rushed in, and tore Yuwen Qiankeng off the car.
"Xiyang Gong, you... What are you doing! ”
"Your Majesty, go away!"
Yuwen Wen couldn't be rude, put Yuwen Qiankeng on his shoulder, and said to Wei Chijing, who had caught up: "Lu Guogong, take Your Majesty and leave quickly!" ”
Wei Chijing was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then nodded vigorously, and after confessing his guilt, he picked up the little emperor on his mount, and then turned over on the horse, Yuwen Qiankeng came back to his senses a little, and asked Yuwen Wen:
"Xiyang Gong, what's wrong?"
"Your Majesty, the Sui army is here, please leave quickly!"
"Ahh So what to do? Yuwen Qiankeng's face turned pale with fright.
"Lu Guogong, take Your Majesty and leave quickly, I'll cut off the queen!"
"You, follow the official to escort Your Majesty, you, stay and break the queen!" Wei Chijing shouted loudly, Yu Wenwen decided to stay and break off, which was beyond his expectations, but the current situation is critical, and it is only appropriate to do so.
"Xiyang Gong, you go too!" Yuwen Qiankeng shouted, he saw the dust flying in the distance, it seemed that a large group of soldiers and horses were rushing towards him, and he knew that the situation was not good now.
"Your Majesty, please go first, Weichen will break off for Your Majesty!" Yu Wenwen smiled at the little emperor, then turned his head and left.
In a moment, Yuwen Wen and Wei Chi Jing had already made a decision, Yu Wen Wen stayed behind and several forbidden army generals to break the formation, and Yu Chi Jing took the emperor and rode a horse and galloped south, hundreds of cavalry followed closely.
"The Sui army is here! Everyone move closer to the carriage! Get ready for battle! ”
Yuwen Wen shouted loudly, the news spread out, and the whole team began to fluctuate, some people who reacted quickly were already pale with fright, and some had not come back to their senses, looking at each other, some people looked back, and then shouted in fright.
"The Sui army is coming, the Sui army is coming!"
"Quick, move closer to me, move closer to the carriage, pick up everything you can hold as a weapon, form a formation, form a formation!" The general of the forbidden army shouted loudly, commanding his subordinates to gather towards him, and Yuwen Wen separated the crowd and ran towards the middle of the group.
He made a decision, that is, after breaking it personally, it is not a brain-dead person who wants to fight for the position, it can only be so, today's Zhou State can do without Xiyang County Gongyu Wenwen, but can not do without Emperor Yuwen Qiankeng.
If Yuwen Qiankeng dies, who will succeed him? Qiguo Gongyu Wenliang? Qiguo Gongshi Ziyu civilization? Or Xiyang County Gongyu Wenwen? This is impossible, the adult clan is on the throne, will the Wei Chi family be willing?
So let the next generation of Xiaoyuwen succeed to the throne? What about their grandfather Yu Wenliang, father Yu Wenming or Yu Wenwen? Be a regent? How should Prime Minister Chi Yuan deal with himself? Who will hold the power of the imperial court?
If this is the case, only Yuwen Wen's sister-in-law, Yuwen Weicheng, is suitable, because he has the blood of both Yuwen and Wei Chi on his body, which can be acceptable to both parties, but even then it still can't solve the problem.
No matter which Yuwen is the emperor, he must follow the principle of proximity and stay in his own territory in Shannan, if the new emperor is unwilling to go to Yecheng, then the prime minister of Yecheng will come to Shannan?
Therefore, there is a high probability that the Wei Chi clan will stand by and let the Sui army break through Shannan, and they will be able to stand on their own 'helplessly'.
Just like the story of Xiao Liang back then, after Jiangling, where Emperor Xiao Yi of Liang Yuan was located, was broken by the Western Wei army, the last vitality of the Liang State was also broken, and the general Chen Ba first replaced him in Jiankang and established the Chen State.
Yuwen Qiankeng can't die now, if he dies, then Zhou Guo will come to an end, so Yuwen Wen is faced with a cruel choice, but the answer is also very simple: let Yuwen Qiankeng go quickly, and try his best to ensure the safety of his life.
The enemy army is killed, the emperor must go, and the Zuo Gongbo, who commands the forbidden army and the guards, also withdraws, and there must always be someone with some weight left to suppress the formation, and command the personnel to intercept the enemy army, although Yu Wenwen is not the boss of the forbidden army or the guards, but it is a clan.
If the people of the Yuwen family have slipped away, then who is willing to play for the Yuwen family?
The people who stayed were meat shields, and they wanted to block the Sui army's charge as much as possible and buy precious time for the emperor's retreat, and only Yuwen Wen could use the name of the sect that might not be very bright to call on everyone to play with their lives.
Maybe he will die, but as long as the little emperor is safe and sound, the delicate balance of power in the Zhou State can be preserved, and as long as the Zhou State is here, there will be the living space of the Yuwen family, and there will be the living space of Yuwen Wen's wife and children.
This is his decision, just like when he was in Chang'an, he was willing to sacrifice his life and Yang Jian's life in exchange for the stability of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the life of his family.
Another reason is that Zhou Faming, Tian Yilong, and the guards who accompanied them were still in the middle and rear positions of the team, and there was not enough time for them to slip away, so they could only carry it in a group.
He can't leave his own people and run for his life!
Yuwenwen is a clan, so he can ride a horse and follow the Son of Heaven's chariot, while Zhou Faming and Tian Yilong can only line up in the middle of the team like the rest of their entourage, and once the team is in chaos, they don't even have a chance to escape.
Zhou Faming and Tian Yilong followed Yuwen Wen to Yecheng, so Yu Wenwen wanted to take them back to Bazhou well, if they just left their own people and slipped away, what face would they have to go back.
This is the commander of the first army who left his soldiers and fled!
He quickly found Zhou Faming and the others, and even Zhang Dingfa and Zhang Yu and other guards were together, and after seeing Yuwen Wen, they all asked in unison: "What's going on, why did the Sui army appear here?" ”
"No matter how much, now listen to my command, copy the guys with their backs to the carriage and form a formation, block the road to intercept the Sui army, for His Majesty's Royal Highness!"
The sound of horses' hooves sounded, and the surging Sui cavalry had approached the ranks, and people ran around in panic, some obeying the command and gathering to the side of the carriage, while more people fled to the wilderness on both sides of the road.
In the face of the enemy army that was about to be killed, the whole team was really in chaos in an instant, the generals shouted hard, but they could not organize an effective defensive formation at all, only those forbidden troops and guards came to their senses, approached the carriage, and tried to gather together.
The cavalry charge has been completed, but their own formation is scattered like a lamb to be slaughtered, only to carry it with flesh and blood, hoping to find a glimmer of life, Yuwen Wen climbed into a carriage, stood up straight and pulled out his saber and shouted vigorously: "I am Yu Wenwen of the Great Zhou Sect, all the armies will kill the enemy with me!"
