Chapter 289: Surprise Attack on Rouyuan

The sudden appearance of 20,000 more people who could ride horses made Li Guanqi overjoyed, but then Ye Wen's words in his ear made him frown. There is no shortage of weapons, grain and grass in the Qiyang Pass, but there are only 3,000 war horses. There are fewer horses than expected.

Li Guanqi thought for a while, called He Ziming, and ordered him to take 20,000 people to march urgently, secretly go to the vicinity of Rouyuan City to ambush, and wait for his arrival.

This time, He Ziming did not hesitate and obeyed the order.

After He Ziming left, Li Guanqi selected 3,000 people among those who could ride horses, and specially selected 1,000 female soldiers to be incorporated into the cavalry unit, led by Lu Yuting.

After the cavalry was reorganized, Li Guanqi announced that all 6,000 cavalry would set off after dawn.

Regarding Li Guanqi's behavior, Lu Yuting looked at it in her eyes and felt that this man was too attractive, and she was beyond her imagination. Although Li Guanqi had put down the rebellion in Jiannan and Shannan before, Lu Yuting had not really seen Li Guanqi's ability to fight. And this time, she saw it with her own eyes.

Since Li Guanqi formulated this earth-shattering plan, not many people believe that he will succeed, and everyone is actually just unable to resist him, and just follow the gamble. Unexpectedly, the first step, which seemed to be a difficult step-to capture the Qiyang Pass, Li Guanqi really succeeded with only 3,000 cavalry.

Now Li Guanqi has not only subdued 80,000 soldiers, but also filled those women who seem to be delicate with a fighting spirit.

At this moment, Lu Yuting thinks that Li Guanqi is not only a good emperor, but may become an emperor through the ages.

As for Empress He Bijun, she is kind by nature, and when she understands what happened to those female soldiers, she no longer has a good impression of those Turks. Seeing the pile of meat and the madness of the female soldiers, she wanted to vomit, but she resisted. She knew that she had to hold on and not pull Li Guanqi's back legs.

From this moment on, He Bijun further understood her husband's talent, and also understood the burden on her husband's shoulders, and in an instant He Bijun felt that she had really grown up, and she could no longer withdraw from him as before. Become a burden for Li Guanqi.

From this moment on, He Bijun has secretly decided that no matter what happens in the future, he will do his best to let Li Guanqi have a warm home, a quiet place for Li Guanqi to rest when he is tired, so that he will have no worries - no matter how many women Li Guanqi will have in the future.

On the way to Rouyuan City, He Ziming marched towards a small road or a covered place, but before he was halfway there, he was overtaken by Li Guanqi's cavalry from behind.

This can't be blamed on He Ziming, his soldiers are all original prisoners. Setting off before resting after the riots at the Leaking Sun Pass, coupled with the covert operation, made the movement quite slow.

Although it is far from the distance that Li Guanqi expected, Li Guanqi can't ask for anything. Time is pressing, and Li Guanqi can only find a way to buy more time. After pondering for a while, he decided to take a risk.

There were 10,000 Turkic soldiers and 10,000 puppet troops stationed in Rouyuan City, and Li Guanqi did not dare to hold it up, so he brought out all the 6,000 cavalry. The generals who can be brought are basically all brought. The thousand female cavalry were led by Lu Yuting, after previous observations. Lu Yuting is still quite promising.

Now only He Bijun, Yang Yuqing and Yue'er are left to preside over the leaking pass. Li Guanqi originally thought that it would take a lot of effort to coax He Bijun to stay in Chuyang Pass, but when Li Guanqi spoke, He Bijun agreed without thinking about it. He didn't know that his performance last night had changed everyone's perception of him, and it had also changed He Bijun's opinion of herself and herself.

The main task of the two ladies is to lead the newly armed soldiers to set traps and dig long pits and other defensive works outside the gate of the sun. The female soldiers assisted in carrying the fortification equipment up the tower. Ballista carts, catapults, bows and arrows, etc. Although the movements are clumsy, it is easy to do things with many people.

After approaching Rouyuan City, Li Guanqi first asked He Ziming and Er Qian to wear Turkic soldier clothes. Under the leadership of Ye Wen, he rode a horse to Rouyuan City.

In fact, Li Guanqi originally wanted Ye Wenyu to attack after opening the city gate to save time. However, at present, there are only 6,000 cavalry and 20,000 foot soldiers, and they have to divide their troops to surround the city gates on all sides, in case someone escapes and goes out to ventilate the news, and the strength is a little insufficient to fight against the 20,000 defenders, so He Ziming and Ye Wen are sent into the city first.

Fortunately, the guard of the north gate of Rouyuan City knew Ye Wen, and after asking a few questions, he was released.

Since there were only two hours before Li Guanqi's appointment, the two immediately went their separate ways. Ye Wen contacted some of the original robes and residents he knew, and asked them to respond. The people of Rouyuan City, who had been burned and plundered by the Turks, were overjoyed when they heard that someone had come to rescue them.

Although there was not much time, a few thousand people were secretly gathered and an agreed time to gather at the place where the Turks had placed their war horses.

He Ziming was more busy, first he confirmed the location of the defenders in the city. This is important because Li Guanqi's soldiers attacking Rouyuan City are really not enough, and with the time being tight, it is most important to know the enemy's position.

The second was to greet the general who guarded the city, so that he could relax his guard, so that his 2,000 soldiers could easily open the city gate.

Sure enough, everything went well, everything was ready, only the east wind was owed.

At sunset, Li Guanqi arrived at the north gate of Rouyuan City with 1,000 cavalry guards and 20,000 foot soldiers, of course, everyone had changed into Turkic clothes.

The remaining 2,000 cavalry, led by Nameless and Lu Yuting's female cavalry, lurked far outside the city gate.

After the guard found out about Li Guanqi's troops, he asked loudly.

In fact, it was just routine for him, and he didn't doubt the identity of these people at all, and it was impossible for such a large number of troops to appear here at this time. Moreover, he had already drunk a lot with Ye Wen and He Ziming, and his thinking power had decreased under the influence of alcohol, so he ordered the city gate to be opened.

Li Guanqi was not in a hurry after entering the city, and ordered everyone to prepare at the predetermined place.

He Ziming had already received the news, so he rushed over to hand over the location map of the soldiers defending the city to Li Guanqi and told him that everything was going well.

When Li Guanqi saw that the time had come, he ordered someone to shoot a signal bomb into the air, and then quickly led people to attack the nearest city gate. The signal flare is also one of the achievements of the Military Research Institute, which can be shot 50 meters into the air, burst at night, and can be seen from a distance of ten miles.

At the same time, the soldiers in the city took off their clothes and immediately entered the barracks to attack the unprepared Turkic soldiers.

The Turkic soldiers saw a large group of shirtless men rushing in on horseback, and before they knew what was happening, they were killed.

Some people instinctively counterattack, but how can the infantry fight with the cavalry? Soon, all three barracks in the city were locked in battle. (To be continued......)
