Chapter 168: The Battle of Yansui (I)
"Governor of Shaanxi, the left deputy capital of Yushi Yang Yiqing Yang, quickly open the city gate!" Qi Jingtong shouted loudly. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Wait a moment, I'll inform the commander." The soldier on the gate of the city.
Not long after, a middle-aged man wearing armor and sword eyebrows appeared at the head of the city, and he was still holding a big knife in his left hand.
At this time, there was another civil official beside him who was a little older and had a steady momentum, and the momentum of this guy was a bit similar to Yang Yiqing, with a hint of ruffian in his elegance.
After Yang Yiqing saw the civil official, he pointed at him and said, "Lao Liu, open the door quickly, there is something to discuss." ”
From where Qi Jingtong knows, this is the border affairs of Liu Yu, the right capital of the Imperial Palace, the general system of Datong Xuanfu, the Yaotou Pass and other places, and next to him is Liao Hai, the commander of Datong Guard.
In the nine-sided important towns, the imperial court will send a capital to control the affairs of several important towns, that is, to prevent the situation of passing the buck to each other in the war, such as Yang Yiqing, he is the chief of Shaanxi, Ningxia, Gansu trilateral machine affairs, and also supervises the Shaanxi Ma Zheng left deputy capital Yushi.
Liu Yu recognized Yang Yiqing, and said a few words to Liao Hai beside him, and the heavy outer Guo Chengchi was slowly opened.
The four of them kept running all the way into Datong Mansion.
"I said, Lord Yang, when will you change your impulsive temper, I don't know if you think the captives have invaded." Liu Yudao.
After dismounting, Yang Yiqing didn't have time to drink water, and said to Liu Yushi: "It's really a captive invasion, but it's just an invasion of Guyuan." ”
Liu Yu smiled: "Then you don't go to Guyuan, what are you doing in Datong?" Don't come to borrow soldiers, I don't have soldiers! ”
"What did Lord Liu say? Have I come to borrow soldiers? I'm here to add military merit to adults! ”
Yang Yiqing's words really attracted Liu Yu's interest, and he said, "What do you mean?" ”
Chen Yu is meticulously learning the art of speaking, and the opportunity to learn like this is not always available.
"The captives brought 30,000 elite soldiers into Guyuan, Guyuan is in danger, its defenders are only 10,000 ears, when I come, I have transferred 30,000 troops from Shaanxi, Delong, Taiyuan and other prefectures to reinforce, the rest of the troops need to stick to their position, and they can't be transferred for the time being, but even so, there are more than 47,000 Ming elites in the Guyuan battlefield."
Liu Yu frowned, can this Yang Yiqing's subordinates bring out so many soldiers? I'm afraid you're not bragging, right?
"Then in that case, I will congratulate Lord Yang on his victory, but what does this have to do with this official?" Liu Yu asked lightly.
"Are you willing to be a bird? Don't have that ambition? Yang Yiqing asked rhetorically, "Don't you think this is an opportunity?" ”
"Yes." Liu Yu nodded, "Do you want to annihilate this army?" ”
"Not bad!" Yang Yiqing said with his hands behind his back, "No matter what the results of the battle are, the military merits made this time are all owned by Er Liu Yushi, and I, Yang Yiqing and Gu Yuanwei, don't want a little military merit, how about it?" ”
"Really?" Liu Yu's eyes opened suddenly, and then closed them again, "This official said that Datongwei can't draw so many soldiers. ”
"It doesn't take much, just 10,000!" Yang Yiqing said, "Guyuan is divided into Guocheng inside and outside, and the official is going to catch turtles in an urn, and attack back and forth!" ”
Liu Yu immediately understood what Yang Yiqing was referring to, and raised his eyebrows, "What you said is true?" Don't you want a little military merit? ”
"Seriously." Yang Yiqing said, "It's not ......"
Liu Yu's eyes imperceptibly leaked a touch of contempt, and he happened to be caught by Chen Yu, and said in his heart: "There is no one in the old guy's city mansion who is not deep!" ”
"But those brothers who stubbornly stuck to the original and died in battle, I hope to give military merit rewards!"
"That's all?" Liu Yu asked in disbelief.
"That's all!"
"Good! Ten thousand, right? The official promised you that he would pick 10,000 elite soldiers for you, and let you see how the border army of the official is! Liu Yu said happily.
What is the march to war for? It is the purpose of the general to protect the family and defend the country, and the purpose of the soldiers is to make military merits and get rewards! It's a philistine, but it's so innocent!
Liu Yu's soldiers have few opportunities to get military merits, why do people follow you? It's not just the glorious lintel, this opportunity has come, and Liu Yu doesn't want to let it go.
The art of leading soldiers is sometimes said to be simple, it's that simple, but if it's difficult to say, it's not something that can be explained overnight, Liu Yu is a very good at leading people's imperial history, this "person" It includes generals and soldiers!
Three days after agreeing with Liu Yu, Liu Yu's 10,000 elite soldiers launched a general attack on Guyuan, and three days later, Guyuan Waiguo will open the city gate, and it depends on whether the captives dare to come in!
At the same time, Yang Yiqing and the four of them set off in the direction of Ningxia non-stop, and when they arrived at Yansui Mansion, he listened to it and made strategic arrangements here.
Chen Yu asked Yang Yiqing curiously: "Why do you want to send military merits to Liu Yushi for nothing?" ”
"There are not enough Guyuan soldiers, and there are only more than 10,000 soldiers defending the city, maybe less, from the three sides under my jurisdiction, at most 10,000 can only be drawn, and it is not so easy to use 20,000 against 30,000 Tartars, so we need to borrow strength."
"As for military exploits? Compared to an entire Guyuan City, what is the military merit? Yang Yi said lightly, "If you want me to be the official position of the imperial historian, I will also give it!" ”
, Chen Yu was shocked, this guy is too capable of acting, right? Obviously, the army of less than 20,000 actually blew Liu Yu into 40,000, and he was so righteous and righteous, and he looked like he would win this battle, and he also caught a turtle in the urn, beware of not being caught as an old turtle.
"Since there are not enough troops, why do you want to open Wai Guo?" Chen Yu asked puzzled.
"The Mongols have to come to the border to rob every year, they are very smart, they never love to fight, they leave after grabbing, they are very mobile, but they also have weaknesses, that is, they are not good at fighting long-term wars, because they do not have heavy troops at all, so Guyuan's attack on them will not last long, I have to let them see hope, see that Guyuan is not a solid hope!"
"Decoy?" Chen Yu said, "Isn't this too dangerous?" That's the entire Guyuan City, what if the inner city guards can't hold it? ”
"No, I know what the soldiers brought out by my Yang Yiqing are." Speaking of this, Yang Yiqing is very confident!
When the four of them arrived at the Yansui Thousand Households, the chief military officer Ma Ang immediately came out to meet Yang Yiqing, as soon as he entered the Yansui Mansion, Chen Yu felt a strong heroic atmosphere in the northwest, and there were all kinds of people in the streets, not only Han Chinese, but also Mongols and Persians, and even Kunlun slaves could be seen on the streets from time to time.
"Master Chen, how is it, do you think I have a different taste for the side?" Qi Jingtong asked with a smile.
Chen Yu also smiled, "Indeed, compared to the grace of Jiangnan, there are many more boldness here!" ”
Yang Yiqing also governed Yansui very strictly, so much so that he seemed to have his temperament, and from time to time he could see columns of troops patrolling the city on the streets, they were magnificent, and everyone had a sense of arrogance on their faces.
Chen Yu knows that this kind of conceit can only be practiced after a thousand hammers!
Although he arrived at Yansui Mansion, Yang Yiqing did not rest a little, it had been almost four or five days in a row, Yang Yiqing basically didn't close his eyes, he found Ma Ang, the commander of the General Military Administration, and asked how Guyuan was doing now.
Ma Ang told Yang Yiqing that the Tartars were divided into four routes, attacking Guyuan City from each city gate, and Waiguo had already broken through one place, robbing a lot of grain, grass, horses, and ...... Woman!
Yang Yiqing frowned, "How are the brothers in Yuwang City?" This is what Yang Yiqing is most worried about.
Yuwang City its land is fertile and can be defended, here is the first place to resist the invasion of Pingliang and Guyuan, during the Chenghua years, Yuwang City has been repeatedly destroyed, Yang Yiqing passed through here, immediately saw the unique advantages here, he took this place as a throat point, dispatched 2,000 people to guard, and the newly recruited army enlisted in the army, and gave Tian Tun to plant the first thing for defense.
Ma Ang said: "Don't worry, my lord, the commander of Yuwang is a smart man, and after sending the message to Guyuan and Pingliang Mansion, he closed the city gate and did not come out day and night. The Mongols seemed to look down on this small city, so they didn't fight, so they quickly went to Guyuan and Pingliang. ”
"My lord, why are you so concerned with Yuwang City?" Maang asked puzzled.
Yang Yiqing shook his head, having an ominous premonition, but still said: "Nothing, you quickly transfer 10,000 elite soldiers on three sides, send troops to Guyuan in four ways, and set up camp when you go to the city twenty kilometers." ”
"Watch out for the Tartar's eyes, don't get spotted." Yang Yiqing admonished.
"Yes!" Maang received the order and hurried out.
Yang Yiqing at this moment, where does he look like a civil official imperial history? Chen Yu clearly saw a general guarding the border and holding a heavy old man!
Sitting in front of the desk, looking at the military intelligence, Yang Yiqing's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
Chen Yu also quietly walked out with Shen Fei and Qi Jingtong at this time.
When he got out of Dazhai, Chen Yu took a big breath of the air outside, and the atmosphere inside Shicai was so depressing that Chen Yu couldn't stand it.
That Qi Jingtong slammed the sand and gravel on the side with one hand, and said angrily: "The Tartar of the straight lady thief, I don't know how many women of the Han family have been abused, and how many materials have been robbed!" ”
Qi Jingtong seems to have seen scenes of broken families and broken wives and separated wives.
Chen Yu couldn't understand such feelings, after all, he hadn't experienced it, and it was impossible to have any feelings from simple fantasies, so he could only persuade Qi Jingdao: "General Qi don't be sad, sooner or later he will go to the battlefield to kill the Tartars!" ”
Qi Jingtong nodded, and his expression softened a little.
But not long after the easing, outside the city gate, he suddenly remembered the shouting and killing sound in the sky, Qi Jingtong was shocked, "You actually hit here?" ”
Chen Yu was also very nervous, it was the first time he had felt this kind of scene, and Qi Jingtong smiled after seeing Chen Yu's reaction, "Adults are much better than me, even if I was a martial artist at that time, I was not scared when I encountered this situation!" ”
After Qi Jingtong finished speaking, a murderous aura suddenly appeared on his face, "Straight mother thief, if I don't slaughter you, it will be in vain for you to run so far!" After saying that, he ran towards the city gate! (To be continued.) )
