Chapter 123: Retreat lightly

Another strong attack failed, and He Lu, who was outside the gate, was in a very bad mood, and the gloom on his face could condense water. Several Turkic generals beside him couldn't help but bow their heads when they saw the Turkic soldiers who had dispersed from the embarrassment.

"Back to camp!" Suppressing the anger in his heart, Heru rode backwards. His eyes were full of worry, but he hid it well.

The mountain road in front of Juyong Pass, from the pass all the way to the mountain pass, stretches for nearly 30 miles before and after, there are not many river beaches and canyons that can be camped, and there are more than 14,000 people who are personally led by Helu, divided into seven parts, distributed in the mountain road.

The largest is the camp that Haji had previously chosen.

"Prince, you can't fight like this! My tiger division soldiers should have galloped on war horses and crisscrossed the grassland, not for consumption of tackling key problems. For the past two days, the warriors have complained, and if this continues, they will rebel! After returning to the camp, a Tiger Division general glared at He Ludao.

The unruly appearance made He Lu's heart angry: "Are you threatening this prince? ”

"Don't dare! I'm just reminding Prince Helu! The person snorted coldly: "Under the command of the first Khan, we have never fought such a humiliating battle, let alone let the warriors dismount and attack the Central Plains City!" ”

The words of the tiger division general in front of him seemed to sting He Lu's heart, his face was swollen and red, and he suppressed his anger and stared at him. Looking around at the generals in the tent, he compromised a little helplessly: "You all go back to your own camp, appease the warriors, tomorrow, don't tackle the problem!" ”

Seeing a group of generals coming out of the tent one after another, Helu no longer suppressed his anger, and directly pulled out the short knife on his waist and stabbed it on the wooden table in front of him.

Hidden dangers, he finally clearly realized the hidden dangers, his father and son did not have a solid foundation, "killed" the auspicious Khan, and it was not difficult to usurp the throne, but the difficult thing was to clean up the hearts of the Turkic tribes. From the attitudes of those Tiger Division generals, it can be seen that the influence of Jili Khan cannot be eliminated in a short period of time.

Only slightly frustrated by the enemy, these people reacted so much, think about the Hetao, Mo Du can face the counterattack of more than 200,000 troops in the Great Zhou, what kind of pressure is that......

In fact, the Mordo father and son still have to thank the people of the Iron Hand Regiment, if they hadn't killed the Jili Khan in Youzhou, their father and son's life would have been even more difficult. As long as the Gilly Khan is alive and returns to the country with borrowed troops, they will have no room for resistance.

There were only three people left in the tent, Heru, Haji, and Urezi. Ule is the number one master under Helu, with a cold and hard face, few words, and a performance that no one approaches.

"Prince, you really can't attack anymore!" When Helu's breath calmed down, Haji on the side also persuaded him.

"Judging from the attack and defense of the past two days, the defenders in Juyong Pass are obviously prepared, and their strength is definitely more than three hundred, and its defenders are not so easy to deal with, they are a difficult general......" A mouth, Haji was a little unable to hold back: "You hope for those Tang people, but obviously they are unreliable." The two messengers fled, and the so-called internal response in Guanzhong did not move. As for the rebels in Jixian County, there is no news so far. It's clear that something is wrong with them. ”

Seeing Haji chattering there, although he knew in his heart that he was right, Heru still couldn't help but feel a little bored in his heart: "Enough! ”

Hearing the reprimand, Haji couldn't help but be stunned, it was rare for Helu to have such a bad attitude.

With a clenched fist, Helu exhaled heavily and looked at Haji: "I also know these things, so you say, how should our army deal with it in order to break this embarrassing situation?" ”

"Prince, withdraw the troops!" Looking at Helu very solemnly, Haji said solemnly.

"No way!" Hearing his words, He Lu stood up directly, and his tone was very stern: "I came to the east on the order of my father Khan, and when I was slightly hindered by the enemy's pass, I said that I would retreat, wouldn't it be underestimated." Juyong Pass must be won, if there is no progress in the battle of Youzhou, I am afraid that some people in the country will be more rampant, and my father and son will be even more embarrassed! ”

Clearly, Heru was well aware of Mordo's purpose in sending him eastward. If you lead the spirit to ride east, if you just retreat like this......

The mood is irritable, and the thought of Youzhou's allies is even more worried.

"Prince, now Juyong Pass is not easy to conquer. Our army is distributed between these mountains, and it is completely impossible to exert itself, and the general is worried that once the troops from other parts of the Great Zhou army come to support, it will be difficult to retreat at that time. And if an enemy forces cut us off, we will be in danger in this narrow mountainous terrain! Haji continued to speak.

"I sent Qi Ge to lead the army, in the Huairong area, to protect the rear road of our army, there should be no big problem! As for the reinforcements of Da Zhou, they have not long received the news of our army, and the transfer of heavy troops can be dealt with in three or two days, and we still have time! He Lu still looks "sober", analyzed.

Seeing that Heru's reluctance to withdraw his troops was very resolute, Haji felt helpless for a while, and the words of advice that had been brewed were all finished, but they had no effect, and he didn't know what to say for a while. In his opinion, when he withdraws, he will withdraw, as for the scruples and thoughts of Mordu's father and son, he really doesn't understand, and even doesn't understand.

After being silent for a long time, seeing that He Lu didn't seem to have any ideas, Haji finally spoke: "Then what are you going to do, the prince, look at the current situation, and then force the soldiers to attack the city, and fight with the guards of the Zhou army, the soldiers are not willing to obey orders anymore!" ”

"Let's rest for a day, and then make a decision when the spies I sent out return!" Speaking of this, Helu's face was ugly again.

"Prince, there is one thing that the general must remind you that the rebel army in Youzhou is likely to have a problem, and they should have failed in Jixian County, otherwise this Juyongguan garrison will not be so stable!" When he arrived, Haji couldn't help but speak: "The last general still suggests that the army be withdrawn as soon as possible to get the army out of danger." Otherwise, we will not be able to break through the enemy's pass, and the troops will be too dangerous for us! ”

"If the prince is unwilling to withdraw his troops and return to the west, he may be able to take other routes......"

"If you can't take Youzhou, go to other border states, even if you can plunder, you will only hurt Da Zhou's fur!" Horu sighed. This guy has a big heart, so he wants to break Youzhou, invade Hebei in the south, and attack the hinterland of Dazhou.

Helu is not a person who can't listen to people's words, he felt the meaning of the fist in Haji's tone, thought for a while, and finally nodded: "When the spies return, the situation in Youzhou has been determined...... If that Golden Mulan really fails, we ...... Withdrawal! ”

It was very "difficult" to spit out the last sentence. Obviously, I don't have hope for the rebel party in Youzhou, but I still unconsciously have a kind of expectation, what if a miracle happens? At the critical time, Helu was a little indecisive and suffered from gains and losses.

"Send someone to keep an eye on Juyong Pass for me!" Feeling upset, Helu viciously ordered.

"The last general understands!"

"And! Send 1,000 men west out of the mountain road to guard the beachhead from the mountain pass to the Fushui ferry......" After a little hesitation, he ordered again, and it was obvious that Helu did not dare to relax on such a fatal problem as the back road.
