472 Yanyun Soldiers

At noon on the second day, Zhang Long, who had killed three or four enemy scouts, finally waited for the belated reinforcements from Liaoxi County ten miles east of Lulong City.

Being able to send scouts to explore the way before the army can be regarded as a good march, but Zhang Long has nothing to drag on these suspicious enemies.

After a third of the enemy had entered the narrow col, Zhang Long ordered his soldiers to charge; The enemy's generals immediately ordered to take a defensive position and form a formation, but it also took time to form a formation.

After just one round, the 3,000 reinforcements completely collapsed, and most of them chose to run away as a matter of course, but how could their legs outrun the cavalry?

Two quarters of an hour later, Zhang Long and the others began to clean up the battlefield, while ordering someone to report the battle situation to Su You.

Su You was still very satisfied with the battle report sent back by Zhang Long, although their ambush this time did not turn into a battle of annihilation, but they also wiped out more than two-thirds of the troops who came to help, and the rest of them abandoned their armor and fled into the mountains and forests.

What was especially satisfying to Su You was that there were no more serious losses on his side except for more than ten people who were injured to varying degrees during the rush and killing; What surprised Su You even more was that the reinforcements of Liaoxi County this time turned out to be led by the county guard, because he was in the front position of the team at that time, and he actually bore the brunt of the sword.

Zhang Long, who had completed the ambush mission, soon returned to Lulong City with the loot and rejoined Su You's fleet.

When Su You was verbally rewarding the 1,000 heavy cavalry led by Zhang Long, the messengers sent by Wei Ting and Wang Qi arrived at Lu Long, and they also brought the good news of the total annihilation of the reinforcements from Yuyang County; In addition to this, the messenger gave an account of their current movements.

Of course, in order to further expand the results of the battle, Wei Ting and Wang Qi then besieged Yuyang County with 5,000 reinforcements led by Luo Yi himself.

At this point, Su You's plan to encircle and send reinforcements has come to an end, and then he ordered the envoy to send the head of the county guard of Liaoxi County into Lulong City, and sent a letter of persuasion to Zhang Junli, the county guard of Beiping County.

In fact, most of the surviving Liaoxi County reinforcements who were ambushed by Zhang Long chose to flee into the mountains and forests and voluntarily broke away from the rebellious army in Gaokaidao, while a small number of them ran back to Liaoxi County, and a few people ran to Beiping County.

Zhang Junli had learned the bad news of the annihilation of Liaoxi County an hour earlier, and the only way he could think of to save himself at that time was to surrender.

When Su You's letter of persuasion came, Zhang Junli was inexplicably relieved.

Su You is too powerful now, if he continues to fight against Su You, it can only be a dead end, just in the face of artillery with the power to destroy the world, he has no way. In three days, Lu Longcheng lost nearly 1,000 people, and this is still without any close contact between the two sides, what will it be like if there is a real fight?

Zhang Junli didn't continue to think about it, but simply took off his hat and opened the city gate with a white flag.

Su You took over Lulongcheng, and then reorganized the city defense army of Lulongcheng, but still ordered Zhang Junli to lead this team.

This result was also expected by Zhang Junli, but he didn't expect Su You to make a drastic move, turning the five thousand soldiers who originally belonged to him into the current two thousand.

Of the 3,000 soldiers who disappeared, nearly 1,000 were killed under Su You's artillery in the previous confrontation, and the remaining 2,000 were either because they didn't want to continue to be soldiers, and most of them were old, weak, sick and disabled.

Zhang Junli originally slandered Su You for weakening his military power, but he watched the two thousand soldiers under his name after Zhang Long's training was fruitful for a few days, and he gradually understood Su You's elite line.

Before joining Su You's team, Zhang Junli would never believe that Su You's soldiers could eat meat every day; But after surrendering for three days, the soldiers who were originally loyal to him are now only grateful to Su You.

In such troubled times, filling your stomach is the most practical thing, and having meat to eat is the day of the gods.

Zhang Junli could see that these soldiers under his own management, even if Su You asked them to work for their lives now, he was afraid that they would not frown

Zhang Junli never knew what Su You was doing with great fanfare to lead a fleet of fifty or sixty ships to attack Beiping County; Sometimes he inevitably wonders, "Is it just to co-opt yourself?" ”

As the general of the defeated army, Zhang Junli had his own thoughts, but he didn't dare to ask Su You more about the military situation, but the military information of Yuyang County still came over three days later.

Of course, Zhang Jinshu, the first general of Gao Kaidao, was defeated by Luo Yi, and the fuse of this defeat was that the reinforcements he sent were ambushed by Wei Ting and Wang Qi.

Like Zhang Junli, Zhang Jinshu also chose to surrender, but he was able to save only 700 soldiers.

Not long after the news came, the soldiers led by Wei Ting and Wang Qi and the people sent by Luo Yi to take over Beiping County arrived in Lulong, Su You and they have not seen each other for more than ten years, and it is embarrassing to be able to meet here, not to mention being able to fight side by side again?

Because of the successful completion of the encirclement and reinforcement plan, Luo Yi received two counties in a row, and he was extremely happy.

At this time, the eighteen horsemen of Yanyun, including the Xue Wanche brothers, finally came to the outside of Yanmen City again after several rounds.

As early as the eleventh year of the Great Cause, Yang Guang was forced into Yanmen by the 400,000 troops of the Turkic Shibi Khan, and besieged it for more than a month, when Xue Shixiong also personally commanded 10,000 troops to come to the rescue, including Yanyun's eighteen cavalry.

But at that time, the limelight belonged to the Yuwen family Thirteen Taibao led by Yuwen Chengdu in the early stage, and belonged to Li Jing, Wang Shichong and Li Shimin and Li Xuanba brothers who became famous in World War I.

At that time, the Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry was only Xue Shixiong's personal soldiers, but since then, the Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry has become an independent weave, and has regarded thousands of Turkic soldiers and Khitan soldiers as pigweed countless times

Now, Liu Wuzhou and the Turkic Shibi Khan have reached the point of blatantness, which can be seen from their joint siege of Yanmen City.

Liu Wuzhou invested 8,000 troops in the siege of Yanmen City, including the garrisons of the East Gate and the South Gate and nearly 1,000 patrols; The Turks invested more than 10,000 troops to garrison the west and north gates of Yanmen City, probably trying to fulfill their dream of entering Yanmen?

After holding the binoculars and looking at the situation around Yanmen City three miles away, Xue Wanche suddenly had an idea in his heart, but he still habitually turned his head to look at Xue Wanshu and said, "Big brother, what should I do?" ”

"Second brother, what do you think?" As the boss, Xue Wanshu's force value is not as good as Xue Wanche and Xue Wanjun, and he also knows that his IQ is not as good as Xue Wanche, so he frowned and threw the problem back.

"If you want to enter Yanmen City smoothly, there are two ways to go,—— the simplest and rude way is to rush and kill a city gate, directly under the city gate, we need to face at least three thousand five enemies, or more. Another way is to wait for it to get dark and sneak into the city."

Xue Wanshu listened to his brother's story, but just shook his head, he hadn't thought of such an obvious way.

In fact, they can win all battles, not only have superhuman force, but also are no worse than ordinary people in terms of emotional intelligence, and most of them have thought of these two methods.

After Xue Wanche glanced at his brother, he said categorically, "I prefer the first plan and rush directly into the city." ”

Xue Wanshu didn't know whether it was okay or not, but he expressed his worries, "But this plan also has lessons from the past, Yuwen Thirteen Taibao was vigorous back then, but in the end"

"Let's not put this plan aside, let's analyze the second plan first, although we have the ability to touch the city wall, but the horses can't cross the moat; And the medicine man was resourceful, how could he not have thought about the situation of the city wall being attacked? I can't say that we just touched the city wall when we encountered an ambush set by him. Xue Wanche immediately analyzed.

The Five Tigers of Zhuojun and Li Jing were colleagues in the polo team, and although many years have passed, they dare not underestimate Li Jing's wisdom at all; Ten years ago, they were all hairy guys in their twenties, and at that time they might have offended Li Jing because of impulsiveness, but now they definitely won't.

Xue Wanche's words immediately attracted the approval of several brothers, and Xue Wanjun immediately smiled, "I also agree with the second brother's statement, if we rush in from the main gate, the pharmacist will definitely come out to answer." ”

"The most important thing is that if we can successfully rush into Yanmen City this time, the enemy will not dare to intercept it when we leave the city." Xue Wanche immediately added that the goal of their trip was not to enter the city, but to bring Li Jing out after entering the city.

Since Su You had given them unlimited expectations, how could they be arrogant?

"Then go in through the east gate! Let Liu Wuzhou and the Turkic Dog take a look at the strength of our Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry again! Xue Wanshu immediately turned his head and said to everyone.

Everyone agreed loudly, and Xue Wanche ordered Xue Wanjun to show the flag, and after putting on the armor and armor, they began to gallop towards the east gate of Yanmen City.

At this time, it is early spring, and there are no mountain flowers or green leaves and grass in the northern land, and there is only a cold wind blowing in the face.

The banner of Yanyun's eighteen horsemen was hunting in the wind, and when they were still half a mile away from Liu Wu's Zhou army outside the east gate of Yanmen City, they began to attack at full speed.

There was no need for extra reminders, everyone in Yan Yun's eighteen horsemen knew that only when they rushed into the enemy formation, the enemy's suffering began.

Eighteen people, more than fifty war horses, the rumbling sound was like ten thousand horses galloping.

Everyone knows that distance can make or break when faced with a heavy cavalry attack.

If you want to kill the enemy, you must rush to the enemy's side; The best way to escape the defenders' ranged attacks is to rush into the enemy's ranks.

Liu Wuzhou's army was just a rabble, and Yanmen City was now just a lonely city, and they had no awareness of arranging scouts around it at all.

Yan Yun's eighteen horsemen killed from behind, which caught people off guard, and before Liu Wuzhou's soldiers could release a round of bows and arrows, Yan Yun's eighteen horsemen rushed into the formation.

The strength of Yanyun's eighteen cavalry has long been tested by countless Turkic and Khitan thousand-man teams.

Liu Wuzhou's more than 3,000 defenders withstood a round of impact on the basis of no defense, and then took up arms and began the battle to save their lives.
