Yongyu Lu and Chu Luoyu's uncle and nephew were woken up by the sergeant in their sleep, and when they learned the news that the Sui army had attacked the city, they immediately adopted completely different response strategies: as soon as Chu Luoyu heard that Wuyuan City was broken by the Sui army, he immediately ordered his men and horses to leave the city from the north gate and retreat to Dujin Mountain; Yongyu Lu personally led 5,000 Turkic iron horsemen and went straight to the south gate of Wuyuan City to greet him.

In Chu Luoyu's mind, any other city could be abandoned, but the Great Khan's Tooth Tent must not be captured by the Sui army. This is not only because his brother Sha Bolu Khan entrusted the Great Khan's tooth tent to him to guard before leading his army westward, but also because in the minds of the Turks, the location of the Great Khan's tooth tent is on par with Chang'an, the imperial capital of the Sui Dynasty.

At this point, I can't do without two more strokes. In this war, Sha Bolu Khan launched a war against the Sui Dynasty, and adopted the strategy of attacking the east and the west in the overall strategy.

Under the instigation of Yuwen Prajna, no matter how the Sui Dynasty handled its relations with the Turks, the Turks would invade the south with heavy troops, giving the Sui Dynasty, which had just established the dynasty, a dismount, in order to force the Sui Dynasty to pay tribute to it. When Luo Yu's father and son had not yet returned to the Turks from Chang'an, they joined forces with Gao Baoning, the remnant general of the Northern Qi Dynasty, to attack Linyu Pass, in fact, in order to lure the Sui Dynasty's army stationed in the north to advance eastward and contain it in the Liaodong area. And he had already set the location of the southern invasion in the northwest Guanzhong area at the junction with the territory of his Shudatou Khan.

In the mind of the photograph, among the five Turkic khans, the two with territories in the east, namely the second khan (Anluo) and the fifth Turki khan, Chuluo, could be regarded as his true allies and vassals, while the Apo Khan Da Luo Ben and the Datou Khan, who had a territory in the west, were not necessarily in line with him.

Among them, especially the Datou Khan, who is the oldest and only ranks fourth among the five Turkic khans, is the most relieved.

According to the scouts, shortly before he went to Dujin Mountain to participate in the Five Khans' Alliance, Datou Khan also received envoys from the Sui Dynasty in his tent and accepted the wolf's head given to him by Yang Jian, the ancestor of the Sui Dynasty. Datou was so head and rat at both ends, it could not help but make the picture more wary of him, and he did not hesitate to personally lead the main force of the tribe, with the second Khan Anluo, all the way west, on the grounds of joining forces with Datou Khan and jointly raising troops to invade the south, urging him to openly tear his face and start a war with the Sui Dynasty.

According to the original assumption of the photograph, Gao Baoning's more than 40,000 remnants of the Northern Qi army could not defeat the Sui army, at least the main force of the Sui army could be attracted to the Liaodong area, so that after he led the main force of the tribe to the west, there were two cities of Wuyuan and Baidaozhou directly south of the Great Khan's tooth tent that could be used as barriers, so there was no need to deploy heavy troops to defend it, so he entrusted Dujin Mountain to Chu Luo Throat, took away his son Dye Gan, and left his eldest son Yongyu Lu to assist Chu Luo Throat to guard Dujin Mountain.

What frustrated the wishful thinking of the photograph was that Gao Baoning, who had been entrenched in Yingzhou for many years, was defeated in the first battle of the 100,000 Sui army led by Yang Shuang, which made the idea of using the photograph to contain the main force of the Sui army in the north prematurely come to naught; Secondly, the picture never imagined that the thirteen-year-old Sui Dynasty's new Hebei Dao Xingtai Shangshu Ling, Jin King Yang Guang actually recruited 30,000 new troops on the spot in the former Qi hometown of Hebei, which greatly enhanced the Sui Dynasty's military strength in the area of Bingzhou, and dared to mobilize a large army after Yongyu Lu led the army to attack Yanmen Pass at night, and quickly mobilized a large army, turned defense into attack, took the initiative to go out of the pass, and recovered Baidaozhou in one fell swoop.

Different from his uncle's idea of defending Dujin Mountain, the Turkic prince Yongyu Lu believes that Wuyuan City and Dujin Mountain are the relationship between lips and teeth, and once Wuyuan City is lost, it is tantamount to a fool's dream to defend Dujin Mountain. Therefore, when he learned the news that the Sui army had invaded Wuyuan City, he still refused to give up Wuyuan City to the Sui army, so he led his five thousand iron cavalry to the south gate to meet the Sui army, in a vain attempt to drive the Sui army who rushed into the city first.

An encounter between the two armies took place near the south gate of Gohara Castle.

According to the comparison of the strength of the two armies, it is undoubtedly that the Sui army commanded by Yan Rong has an absolute advantage, however, in terms of geographical advantages and the ability to fight alone, the Turkic iron cavalry led by Yongyu Lu is significantly stronger than the Sui army.

Yongyu Lu drank and ordered the iron cavalry under his command to line up on the street, and took turns to shoot arrows into the ranks of the Sui army that poured into Wuyuan City, and on the other hand, he ordered the remaining Turkic soldiers at the head of the city to throw rolling wood and stones to the south gate from top to bottom, blocking the connection between the Sui army inside and outside the city, and saw that hundreds of Sui troops at the south gate of Wuyuan City were killed and injured by the rolling wood stones thrown from the city, and the bodies of the Sui soldiers and the rolling wood and stones that were continuously thrown down were piled up at the entrance of the city gate, forming a barrier, dividing the Sui army inside and outside the city into two sections, Yongyu Lu was overjoyed and immediately ordered 5,000 Turkic iron cavalry to launch a surprise attack on the oncoming Sui army.

If Yan Rong led the Sui army to go deep into the city of Wuyuan and engage in street battles with the Turkic army, the Turkic army, which had always been known for its cavalry raids, would probably not be the opponent of the Sui army. It's a pity that Yong Yulu led 5,000 iron cavalry to arrive in time and blocked the Sui army led by Yan Rong on a straight and spacious street in the south gate of Wuyuan City.

After Yan Rong struggled to defeat the two Turkic cavalry who attacked in front of him, he found that the city gate not far behind him had been re-blocked by the corpses of the soldiers and the rolling logs and stones thrown from the city, and it was difficult for the army outside the city to enter the city for a while. He secretly screamed badly, and immediately ordered the part of the Sui army that followed him to rush into the city to retreat immediately, and open the passage into the city at all costs to ensure that the large army that was blocked outside the city could enter the city.

Yongyu Lu led five thousand iron cavalry, rushed down and killed, seeing that the Sui army on the opposite side gave up resistance, they retreated to the city gate, and immediately guessed Yan Rong's intentions, raised his head and shouted at the defenders on the city: "Set fire, burn the city gate, say nothing can let the Sui army enter the city." ”

The remaining Turkic defenders in the city listened to Yong Yulu's order, so they dumped barrels of tung oil from the city to prevent the Sui army from ascending the city with ladders, and then threw seven or eight torches.

The inside and outside of the south gate of Wuyuan City immediately became a sea of fire, and the raging fire successfully blocked a large number of Sui troops outside the city outside the south gate.

Yan Rong took advantage of the fire to lead dozens of soldiers who dared to die and struggled to break out of Wuyuan City, while the rest of the Sui soldiers who took the lead in attacking the city were stopped in the city by the fire.

Although the Sui army once broke through Wuyuan City, it failed to occupy Wuyuan City in one fell swoop due to Yongyu Lu's army to defend it. After Yongyu Lu used the fire to force the Sui army to retreat outside the city, due to the lack of military strength in the city, and the south gate had been destroyed by the fire, there was no danger to rely on, so he had to lead the army to withdraw from the city at dawn the next day and retreat to Dujin Mountain.
