Chapter 212: Goals
Outside the street entrance, Yu Furen, the captain of the White Feather Battalion who arrived earlier, proudly looked at the horizontal camps guarding the streets in various places, and scolded with a smile: "Two legs are indeed cheaper than four legs in street fighting in the city, but it is still a little slow to grab credit. These words caused the cavalry around him to laugh loudly, and everyone felt that the captain's words were really wise, and I don't know when it began, it became a habit for the cavalry and infantry in Lanzhou to ridicule each other, especially for the light cavalry and the infantry, who had poor defense capabilities and insidious fighting style, were simply natural enemies. However, if there was no horizontal camp to guard the street entrance, the White Feather Battalion would not dare to attack without authorization, because the cavalry could defeat the enemy with the advantage of thunder, but it was difficult to completely block the enemy's way. So while resting his horsepower, he waited for the infantry to come, and by the way, he also took an opportunity to ridicule the other party.
Seeing that the horizontal camp was arranged, Yu Furenliang pulled out his horizontal sword and shouted, "Brothers, let's give them a good time!" As soon as he lifted the reins, the horses gently moved forward, and the 1,500 light horsemen of the White Feather Battalion slowly turned around the street and appeared in front of the Uighur cavalry who were still wandering in front of the Han army.
"Alas, defeated, defeated!" said Mi Lu, the commander of the Nancheng battalion, who commanded the cavalry to attack the Han army that had blocked the streets inside the city several times, and felt that the opponent's combat strength was really strong and amazing.
Even the elite soldiers of the Guiyi Army, who have always been known in Hexi, are afraid that before the cavalry of the brigade will attack, they will not be able to stand still. However, these Han troops of unknown origin did it. Could it be that the official forbidden army of Bianliang had come to conquer Hexi? That's it, the Uighurs had already returned to the Central Plains two hundred years ago, and while the Central Plains were in turmoil, the nobles had become addicted to Khan after a few days, and now that the Central Plains army had re-dispatched troops to pass through Hexi, no amount of resistance would be of any use.
Seeing that the cavalry with twice the advantage was like an iron hammer, smashing unstoppably towards the panicked Yeluo Susuo, and the Han army in front of it was motionless, really like an anvil, and wanted to smash the Uighur cavalry sandwiched in the middle with this cavalry, Mi Lu couldn't bear to look any further, turned around and ordered: "The whole army is assembled, we will kill it." spared Suzhou and defected to Jingqiong Great Khan. "He was originally a person who was raised by the night and the water, and when the mountains and rivers were exhausted, he would not give up the night to go to Jingqiong.
The southern city tower of Ganzhou is built to be taller and grander than the other three city gates. Stationed in the urn city, but let the loose nature of the secret record feel very stuffy, the heavy city gate slowly opened, the eyes suddenly lit up, the boundless Gobi grassland is the hunting ground of the Uighur athletes, this city, let those Han'er, secret record heart Dao.
Surrounded by the cavalry of the guards, he slowly galloped out of the tower, and although the gate was not small, it could only allow four or five horsemen to pass side by side, and the two thousand Uighur cavalry walked for a while before they came out, and the formation was still scattered, and the gate behind him had not yet been closed. Before the Uighur cavalry could begin to speed up, the 3,000 Han cavalry turned from the east of the city, set up a line of cavalry, and steadily blocked the way.
There have long been military reports, Ganzhou Prefecture City each has 500 Uighur troops to defend the four gates, the state government has a night of 1,000 Uighur troops, the Nancheng battalion cavalry 2,000, the right talent Wu Yingying steadily these Lanzhou most elite cavalry battalions are detained, one is to guard against unforeseen changes in the city, the other is not to put too much pressure on the cavalry group of the Nancheng battalion, lest they desperately attack the infantry of the Yajun and other battalions, causing unnecessary casualties, now seeing that the enemy has abandoned the city and fled, thinking that the battle in the city has been a complete victory, so he dispatched the cavalry to turn around. It was only necessary to deal with the cavalry group of 2,000 men, and the embers of the other Uighur soldiers, so there was no need to worry.
Wu Yingying looked at the Uighur cavalry who were a little flustered because of the appearance of the Lanzhou cavalry, and felt slightly proud in his heart, in less than an hour, he took the city of Ganzhou, and now the overall situation has been decided, and he has no time to pay attention to whether the two thousand Uighur cavalry surrender or fight, and the next goal is to sweep Suzhou, and then approach the Yumen Pass, to wait for the families of those Uighur nobles to be detained in front of the Yumen Pass, and see how the Uighur nobles deal with it.
When the Lanzhou army launched the attack, the sky had just broken and a red sun was rising, and the golden morning glow spread all over the land, and the new lord of Hexi immediately came to the front of the three armies, smiling slightly and watching the Uighurs waving the white flag, urging the horses to come over in frustration, begging for his mercy.
The top and bottom of the Lanzhou army held their breath, and many people looked at the commander in front of the formation from left and right, their eyes full of admiration and reverence. What could win the hearts and minds of the army more than a victory? Wu Yingying's face was indifferent as he watched the Uighur cavalry flying the white flag getting closer and closer, judging from the posture of riding a horse, this was a warrior with superb riding skills.
"Your Excellency, my general has ordered me to deliver a message, as long as your army's army gets out of the way and allows our army to retreat to the Gobi, the city of Ganzhou will be yours. Dagan Commander Mo Yansi said boldly looking at Wu Yingying's face. The Uighurs of Ganzhou had been in Hexi for 100 years and occupied the main trade routes between the East and the West, and many Uighur nobles had accepted the so-called character standards of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, and wisdom in the Central Plains.
"Ganzhou City is insignificant in my eyes, let your general lead the athletes to retreat into the urn city, and the whole army will be captured without armor. After I defeat Jingqiong Khan, I will allow the warriors to return to their homeland with their weapons and a horse. Wu Yingying looked into his eyes calmly.
Mo Yansi didn't expect Wu Yingying to put forward such a harsh and lenient condition, if he wanted to argue but there was no way to argue, at this moment, he felt that Wu Yingying's words revealed incomparable confidence, if the two thousand Uighur cavalry he represented did not accept the condition, then, only destruction awaited them. Wu Yingying's self-confidence also gave him a lot of pressure, almost at that time he wanted to turn the horse back to his own position, could it be that this is the spirit of the hero, Mo Yan said secretly in his heart, he looked at Wu Yingying, wanted to see if he was deceived by deceit, only to see Shen Shen like water, his eyes were quiet, and he couldn't see any clues, so he had to say respectfully: "My lord's merciful conditions, allow me to return to my general, can you tell me about the origin of you and your athletes?" The Great Han Lanzhou Army, Wu Hero. You have a quarter of an hour to think about whether to fight or surrender. ”
Half an hour later, the Uighurs turned and returned to the city of Urn, and asked Lanzhou to send an envoy to receive the armor, ordnance, and horses. If Jing Qiong abandons the Yumen Pass Hui Division to seize the Ganzhou City, then the Yumen Pass army will be in pursuit, the Hexi Corridor is such a narrow landform, in the width of less than two hundred miles of the corridor, it is determined that the opposing armies can not bypass each other, the Lanzhou army will be together with the Yumen Pass army, the Uighur army will be flanked and won. After capturing the city of Ganzhou, the focus of the Lanzhou army was to control the dependents of the Uighur nobles of the Ganzhou tribes and minimize their own casualties.
