Chapter 192: Breakout
"We've got to go. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 After another day of fierce fighting, Li You looked at the soldiers of Tang Kuo's troops who were slowly retreating and said, to this day they have been holding on to Weizhou City for almost a month, but they still haven't seen a single reinforcement, only to see the occasional rout of the Great Wei Army outside the city harassing from time to time under the leadership of a certain general, but this is not very useful for the current situation.
"Now that Weizhou City is still defended, why should we leave? If they were outside the city, they would not be Tang Kuo's opponents. Qian Hua subconsciously asked, these days they refused to defend the city, causing great losses to Tang Kuo's troops, during this time Tang Kuo's soldiers who died in the siege of the city were no less than 20,000, counting Yuan Zhang's 100,000 soldiers and horses now seems to be only in their early 50,000s, but they only have more than 20,000 people left.
"It's not just a matter of Weizhou City now, there have been no reinforcements arriving for so long, the situation in Beijing is probably not good, if we don't go back, I'm afraid it'll be too late." Li You looked in the direction of the capital from a distance, the emperor had been away from the capital for too long, and now he had to leave even if there was a risk.
"But if we leave, what will happen to the people of the city?" Qian Hua asked hesitantly, he was still a little unbearable, the barbarians were all killed, if they were allowed to enter Weizhou City, the people in the city would suffer a great disaster.
"Yuan Zhang knows what is most important now, after we break through, he will not have time to enter Weizhou City, he will only chase after him, and the road back to Beijing will definitely be full of hardships." Li You sighed with emotion, hey, it's too hard to follow a pig teammate like Li Gui, "We will start cleaning up tonight, and we will break through in the early morning of the day after tomorrow." ”
Since it has been decided, then it is necessary to hurry, and after discussing it properly, Li You immediately went to meet Li Gui and explained the plan to break through, Li Gui hesitated slightly, but after Li You said a little bit about his analysis of the capital, he couldn't help it anymore, and he also figured out something wrong these days, and immediately gritted his teeth and agreed to Li You's arrangement.
Yang Jiefu, I will definitely want you to look good when I return to Beijing! The young emperor gritted his teeth and thought, but even if he returned to the capital, would he really be able to dispose of Yang Jiefu as he wished?
Qian Hua went to collect food and other necessary materials for the march overnight, and Qiu Shangjian, Yao Pingzhong, Qin Tansheng and others sorted out the army and prepared to break through.
As for the direction of the breakthrough, Li You chose the east gate, because first of all, the south gate was the focus of Tang Kuo's defense, where the troops were the most abundant, and the north gate was just the opposite direction to the capital; According to the observation of the past few days, it seems that the Great Wei rout outside the city is moving around the East Gate, and if they break through from here, they may be able to borrow their strength.
After two days of preparation, it was finally time to break through, when the time had just arrived, the east gate of Weizhou City suddenly opened, and several large holes appeared on the city wall, and countless Great Wei troops killed from it, and then the glimmer of dawn rushed towards the camp of Tang Kuo's department; Li You rushed to the front first, shooting deadly arrows from his left and right bows, killing the generals of Tang Kuo's army who were trying to organize their troops to block the attack.
In a hurry, Tang Kuo's soldiers who could not find the command could only fight on their own, and more people had just woken up from their sleep and didn't know what was going on, and the defense line was quickly broken through by the Great Wei army, Qian Hua and Qiu Shangjian tightly protected Li Gui from left to right, and fled to the east after Li You.
"What? How dare they break through? This sudden change caught Yuan Zhang off guard, but he quickly figured out the reason, yes, since there was a possibility of a change in Jingzhong, then Li Gui could not stay in Weizhou City for too long, and breaking through became their only choice.
But in the wilderness, without the hindrance of the city walls, you will only be more easily defeated by my army! However, if you catch or kill Li Gui, is it really the best choice for Tang Kubu? Yuan Zhang's brain teaser pondered the gains and losses.
If these people are attacked in one net and Li Gui is killed, then the strength of the Great Wei will be almost wiped out, and Yang Jiefu will become a one-handed man in the court, and the court of the Great Wei will unite instead; As for the emperor, it's a big deal to set up another one when the time comes.
But if these people are put back, they will not be able to guess what role Yang Jiefu and others played in this defeat, and Li Gui and these nobles will inevitably have a quarrel with Yang Jiefu and others in the court in order to take revenge......
Judging from the short term, it seems that the first method is more beneficial to Tang Kuo, they will definitely be busy supporting the new monarch after the emperor dies, and no one can care about the war in the north, Tang Kuobu can take this opportunity to sweep more cities. But in the long run, it seems that the second option is better, and the more chaotic the Great Wei, the greater the chances of Tang Brackets......
Yuan Zhang has also thought about a lot of things in this area these days, but he can't make up his mind for a long time, after all, not everyone can resist the temptation of capturing and killing the Great Wei Emperor.
"Master Guoshi, Mo Rigen at the East Gate has been defeated by them, if we don't move again, they will run away." General Yuan Zhang couldn't make up his mind for a long time, and Wu Lie couldn't help but remind.
"Gather all the troops and horses, and we'll catch up." Until this time, Yuan Zhang still didn't make up his mind, he felt a lot more relaxed after issuing the order, and said silently in his heart, if you can escape this pursuit, then I will let you go and let you go back to the capital to have a good time with Yang Jiefu, the old horseman.
If you are unlucky enough to die here, it will also be your life, and as for the life of Yang Jiefu's old thief, I will take the army to the capital to get it one day.
In a few moments, the Tang Kuo army on all sides was ready to pursue, and Yuan Zhang, wearing armor and a sword, commanded them to pursue the Great Wei army closely; Before that, he had always disdained things like armor when he went into battle, but Li You's arrow made him change his habits.
"Your Majesty, we have rushed out, if you hold on any longer, when we get rid of the chasing soldiers behind us, we will be safe, and when the time comes, we will return to the capital to regather the soldiers and horses, and we will definitely be able to avenge today's revenge." After running not far away, Li Gui's face began to turn pale, and Qian Hua hurriedly reassured.
Take revenge, after returning to Beijing, I will make Yang Jiefu, an old thief, look good! After cleaning up the gang of traitors in the court, I led the army to conquer in person, and relieved the hatred in my heart with a thousand knives of Yuan Zhang, and the hatred gave Li Gui a little more strength, gritted his teeth and insisted on rushing forward.
"Commander, there is a large army blocking the road ahead, I don't know who the soldiers and horses are." Suddenly, a tanma came back and hurriedly reported to Li You, could it be that Yuan Zhang had already ambushed the soldiers here? (To be continued.) )
