Chapter 454: The Battle of Taoyang

Uji looked at the chaos in the Turkic camp tent, and knew that the soldiers of Anbei Prefecture had killed nearly 10,000 of his own soldiers with only 1,000 dead and wounded, and his face couldn't help but turn blue and white, and it was very scary to look at.

"Attack with all your might! We must take Taoyang City to sacrifice my Turkic martyrs! ”

Uji gritted his teeth and said, giving a death order to enter the palace! The soldiers of Anbei Prefecture used this kind of indiscriminate means to let their soldiers suffer serious casualties, which is simply a great shame!

He summoned more than 100,000 troops to march in person, just to take advantage of the delay in the election to accomplish what the previous Turkic leaders could not do, and to take the northern Xinjiang into his arms. But he didn't expect to encounter this situation, and the more Uji thought about it, the more ugly his face became.

The faces of the Turkic soldiers were also ugly, firstly because of their grievances, and secondly, because they had hardly slept all night - the nuisance of the soldiers of Anbei Prefecture was too successful.

As the order to attack with all the strength of the Turks sounded, the soldiers of Anbei Mansion also sounded the horn of defending against the enemy, and the war called "The Battle of Taoyang" in the history books officially began!

Just like in the Northern Xia City, the Turkic army that attacked frantically met the soldiers of Anbei Prefecture who resisted to the death.

Although the number of Turkic soldiers was three times that of the Anbei soldiers, because of their exhaustion from the expedition and the harassment of the Anbei soldiers last night, the Turkic soldiers in Taoyang also did not have any advantage.

The Turkic soldiers could not enter the city, and the Anbei soldiers could only stop the attack. For a while, the battle situation here in Taoyang seemed to be a stalemate.

Still in that temporary meeting room, Gu Dazu summoned Shen Zesi and was talking to him with a solemn face.

"Although the government soldiers temporarily blocked the Turkic offensive, after a long time, they will be at a disadvantage. It was only a matter of time before Taoyang City was breached. ”

Gu Dazu opened his mouth to talk about this grim situation, and Shen Zesi also nodded. At this point, he also thought that after all, the number of Turks was much more than them, and without reinforcements, Taoyang was broken. It was indeed predictable.

"If you want to hold Taoyang, you can only take risks. So it was supposed to surrender to the Turks! ”

Gu Dazu then spoke, and his words surprised Shen Zesi.

"Lord Duhu......" Shen Zesi said subconsciously. But he paused, he knew that Gu Dazu said this, there must be a follow-up.

"Listen to Ben. If you look at this map, you can see the Beishan Mountain Range, which is connected from Taoyang to this small town behind Beixia. Although it is a cliff, it has not been cut off......"

Gu Dazu pointed to the mountains on the map and said to Shen Zesi, his fingers moving back and forth between Taoyang and the small town.

Shen Zesi looked at this map, and instantly understood what Gu Dazu meant.

"What do you mean by Lord Duhu, let the last general copy the Turkic army from behind?"

Shen Zesi asked. I want to determine what Gu Dazu means.

"The Turks' grain and grass must be in the rear of the army. I wanted you to take 3,000 soldiers over these cliffs and burn the Turkic grain and grass! ”

Gu Dazu's fingers didn't stop, but his voice suddenly became cold. The Turks dared to go on an expedition of thousands of miles. Then let them see what will happen if they attack Dayong!

He thought of Zheng Xian, remembered the countless Anbei generals who had given their lives to defend the northern frontier, and said again: "The general will never let the Turks go further!"

"Ben will issue a surrender to the Turks in order to delay the Turkic breach of the city, which can be delayed for up to two days. You only need two days to ......."

Gu Dazu's voice lowered again. These cliffs are not walked on at all. How difficult and dangerous it will be on the cliff, Shen Zesi thinks whether they can cross it smoothly, it is unknown.

In two days, if Shen Zesi and they can't succeed, then Taoyang City will be broken. Not only did he and his soldiers die. That paper of surrender will definitely become an indelible stigma for himself and the soldiers of Anbei Prefecture!

"If it doesn't work out two days later, you and the three thousand soldiers will hide on the cliff and wait for reinforcements from the guards in the gate, and you will have to save your life!" Gu Dazu said again. Speak out the worst.

"Lord Duhu, the last general will never steal his life, and he will definitely die with the Turks......" Shen Zesi immediately retorted.

If Gu Dazu and the soldiers are all dead, how can he hide and live as the protector of Anbei's right capital?

"Ben will not be afraid of death, but Ben will be afraid of death and stigma. You and the soldiers must live, listen to the general's plan to the sky, and announce the truth of Taoyang and Jiang Bowen's actions to the world! Anbei Protectorate, there is absolutely no surrender, and there is absolutely no treason! ”

Gu Dazu said with a slight smile. He knew that after his words, Shen Zesi would definitely live, and he could be regarded as leaving a little seed for the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate.

"I don't believe me, only you can testify for me......," Gu Dazu muttered.

"Lord Protector, the last general will definitely complete the task! We, the soldiers of Anbei Mansion, will definitely be able to hold Taoyang! ”

Shen Zesi said word by word, his eyes were red and moist, but his courage and determination to protect were becoming more and more firm.

In the face of this invasion of Turkic soldiers, whether it was an ordinary Anbei soldier or a general like Shen Zesi, they were growing and powerful. In the face of more difficult circumstances, their spirits are more and more vigorous. This is the baptism of blood on the battlefield, and this is also the reason why soldiers in the army can be the pillars of the court!

Whether it is the common people or the officials of Jingzhao, they should be grateful and respectful to these soldiers and generals who protect the territory.

It is said that Uji is anxious about the current stalemate, and the longer it drags on, the more grain and grass they will consume. There was no other way than to give the order again for the Turkic soldiers to attack to the death.

At this time, a Turkic soldier came in with a few pieces of silk cloth, and there were holes in these silk cloths, because these silk cloths were shot by the soldiers of Anbei Province with crossbows to defend the city.

"As long as you don't kill the surrendered soldiers, Gu Dazu and the soldiers of Anbei Mansion are willing to surrender?" Uji read the handwriting on the silk cloth, puzzled.

The two sides are at war, but Gu Dazu is willing to surrender? How can it be so weird? This must be Gu Dazu's reinforcement plan!

Wu Ji didn't think about it, so he threw these silk cloths into the brazier, he didn't want to accept Gu Dazu's surrender at all. He still has 100,000 soldiers, almost three times the number of soldiers in Anbei Prefecture, and it is a sure thing that Taoyang will be breached!

But half a day later, the Turkic offensive still did not achieve any tension, and those Anbei soldiers were even more desperate. Immediately, the Turkic soldiers received several more pieces of silk cloth and sent them again to the camp of the main general.

The content of the silk cloth is similar to the previous one, but Gu Dazu finally said, if Wuji doesn't agree, then everyone will go down like this until the last Anbei Mansion soldier dies in battle! Anyway, there is food and water in Taoyang City, and he can afford it!

Gu Dazu can afford it, but Uji can't afford it. After reading the handwriting on the silk cloth, this time, Uji did not throw them into the brazier.

The bravery and ruthlessness of the soldiers of Anbei Mansion, he has already seen it in Beixia City, and he knows that what Gu Dazu said is true, if Tao Yang wants to break through, it must be that the soldiers of Anbei Mansion will die!

But in this state, how many days can the soldiers of Anbei Mansion hold on? Uggie didn't know. But he knew that the Turkic soldiers would not last more than a few days. Because the chief soldier and his men have just come to pay their respects, their food and grass are only enough for ten days.

The Turkic soldiers invaded this time, because of the long distance and the limited burden of the army, they only brought half a month's grain and grass. According to Uji's estimate, half a month's grain and grass is more than enough, but he didn't expect that the soldiers of Anbei Mansion would not leave a grain of grain and a scoop of water!

If you attack Taoyang City by force, and once again there is no food and water in Beixia City, then what should you do with your 100,000 soldiers?

"The soldiers will listen to the order, suspend the attack, and see if Gu Dazu really has the sincerity to surrender......"

For a long time, Uggie said. He was not afraid of Gu Dazu's reinforcements, because he knew that the soldiers of the Long Right Guard would never come to the rescue, which was the content of his cooperation with Jiang Bowen.

"Lord Tsugo...... The Turks have stopped attacking! The soldiers of Anbei Mansion watched the Turkic offensive become slower and slower, and finally stopped, and immediately reported to Gu Dazu.

It seems that the silk cloth that shot out did the work.

Hearing this report, Gu Dazu breathed a sigh of relief: This reinforcement plan has been completed! As long as you delay for another day and a half, you can know life and death.

In fact, the Anbei soldiers have reached the end of the crossbow, and if the Turks attack the city again, within half a day, Taoyang City will fall. Now that the Turkic offensive has stopped, the Anbei soldiers have a respite and a chance to regain their strength.

After the offensive of the Turkic soldiers stopped, in order to win the trust of Uji, Gu Dazu also asked the soldiers to send a letter of surrender.

The surrender document stamped with the seal of the Anbei capital said that tomorrow, the soldiers of the Anbei Prefecture would open the gate of Taoyang City and welcome the Turkic soldiers into Taoyang City.

In addition, Gu Dazu also sent a letter, saying that it was a last resort to open the city gate tomorrow, and he needed time to appease the soldiers of Anbei Prefecture, and he also needed time to see if Wuji would take the opportunity to attack the city and surrender.

"Then give the order, and the soldiers will rest! Tomorrow, take over Taoyang City! Seeing Gu Dazu's surrender, Uji was satisfied.

For more than a day, he could afford to wait, and besides, the Turkic soldiers also needed time to rest so that they could have the energy to take over Taoyang.

After thinking about it, Ujiti wrote a letter and told Jiang Bowen about it, and he also sandwiched Gu Dazu's letter of surrender.

Perhaps he just expressed a condescending attitude to Jiang Bowen to warn Jiang Bowen not to sabotage their cooperation, but he did not expect that this surrender letter would have a earth-shaking impact on Dayong.

At this time, because of Gu Dazu's surrender letter, there was calm inside and outside Taoyang City, and everyone was waiting for the arrival of the second day.

No matter what happens in the world, the pace of the hour will never stop, and the second day has arrived.

The Turkic soldiers had already taken off their armor according to Gu Dazu's request, and of course, Taoyang City had also slowly opened.

Just as Uji was heading towards Taoyang City, there was a commotion in the rear of the Turkic army!

Two more!
