And looking around at the neighbors, to the north is the northern plain controlled by the Kamans, and it is a blessing that the Kamans will not come to attack, Yu Yongzhi has never thought of recovering the northern plains; In Yanjing Zhongzhou, although there is only one corps stationed outside the city, in the face of Yanjing's solid defense system and the Praetorian Guard Corps, Yu Yongzhi has not yet been arrogant enough to think that he can conquer Yanjing in one fell swoop; Cheng Dayou in the southeast originally belonged to the same Taiping lineage, but now although he has taken refuge in the Tang River Empire, its combat effectiveness has been improved by leaping forward, and the number of troops has increased to more than 100,000 people at once, and Cheng Dayou's strategy Yu Yongzhi has also learned something, and he is not sure that he dares to touch his colleagues who have become worthy of the name of the king of Jiujiang; to the south is Situ Jun, the king of Jin, and more than 100,000 horses and horses under his command are crowded in this small Huanggang Mansion, and he is already out of breath, and no one is willing to fight his idea。 Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Only Tianshui Mansion in the west, which originally belonged to Heshuo County, is also an important town in the west of Heshuo, peeping into Jincheng in the south, looking at Pinglu in the north, connecting Longdong in the west, and adjacent to Hanzhong in the southwest, it can be described as a place where soldiers must fight, and Li Wufeng actually only placed a division to garrison here, although it is the first division of the Northwest Army known as the Northwest First Army, but there are only about 20,000 people in total, and he uses more than 100,000 troops, several times more than the opponent, will he still miss? Especially according to intelligence, Li Wufeng does not have much mobile combat power in Kansai, as long as he seizes the opportunity, it should not be a problem to take Tianshui.

Before the war, Yu Yongzhi was full of confidence, but he didn't expect that the 180,000 army would suffer repeated setbacks under this Tianshui City, and the enemy would still be able to open the city and raid it. The siege war was carried out unprecedentedly tragically, and it must be said that the Taiping Sect was quite a set of demagoguery, although the weapons and armor were poor, and all kinds of equipment were lacking, but with fanaticism and courage, the most ordinary ladder could also become a magic weapon to conquer the city.

Although Qu Bo received an order from Shangfeng to abandon the city if necessary, he did not intend to end the city defense battle so easily. In addition to the garrison units of one wing under his direct supervision, he temporarily recruited the reserve soldiers of the two wings to participate in the work of auxiliary surnames, such as transporting materials and weapons, carrying the wounded and food, and other less dangerous activities, Qu Bo planned to let them adapt to the atmosphere of the two-day battle, and if the military situation was really urgent, he had no choice but to put the reserves of these two wings into the battlefield and directly receive the baptism and training of blood and fire. In addition to the garrison of the regular army of the five wings and one wing, the garrison of the main gate is guarded by two wings, and the remaining three gates are only defended by four brigades, and the three brigades that have been drawn out are formed into reserves, which can be put into the battlefield at any time for emergencies.

The arrival of 30,000 rangers was a relief in disguise, and when Qu Bo had already put two reserve wings on the battlefield as general reserves, he no longer had any troops to deploy. It was at this time that 30,000 nomadic light cavalry sneaked in from Hanzhong and quietly covered up, easily broke through the Taiping army's defensive line in the south of Tianshui, annihilated a 10,000-strong Taiping army in one fell swoop, and then rushed straight to the Taiping army camp under Tianshui City again without stopping.

The sneak attack was chosen just after midnight, and the Taiping army, which had just gone to bed, obviously did not enter the state, and the alert force also focused on the north, not as strong and tenacious as the Kamans, and the Taiping army immediately suffered a catastrophe. The 30,000 cavalry swept over the 20,000-strong battalion stationed under the south gate, and the nomadic cavalry who set fire to trampled everywhere were like a hornet chasing the Taiping soldiers who fled for their lives, and the soldiers armed with religious fanaticism could no longer maintain the morale of the army once they encountered such a sudden blow, let alone organize an effective defense and counterattack, which was very different from the performance of the Kamans.

The collapse of the 20,000 troops soon spread to the west gate, 30,000 rangers abandoned the east side where the defense and combat effectiveness were the strongest, and rushed into the western front defender camp that had just reacted in one breath, and the chain reaction soon appeared in the west camp, and the Taiping soldiers who didn't know where the enemy came from or even didn't know what was going on in the dark night scattered in a hurry, and the west camp and the south camp became a sea of fire, and the Taiping soldiers who fled in the chaos trampled on each other, and the soldiers who slept in a daze in the dark night panicked and ran out regardless of whether their comrades were dead or alive。

When Yu Yongzhi, who was awakened from his sleep, learned the news, he couldn't believe his ears, although the south camp and the west camp were not the center of gravity, they also arranged 40,000 horses, and there were also special troops responsible for prevention on the periphery of the south camp and the west camp, which actually collapsed overnight, so the ensuing blows made Yu Yongzhi have to calm down and consider whether the battle to seize Tianshui was still necessary.

The 180,000 army is now less than 120,000 people, and Tianshui City is still towering, of course he doesn't know that the first division in the city has reached the limit, he can only analyze the situation from the battlefield during the day, it seems that there is no sign of retreat in the city, and the arrival of tens of thousands of nomadic cavalry shows that the reinforcement speed of the Northwest Army is far faster than his own estimate, the cavalry has arrived, and has caused considerable trouble to himself, and once the follow-up troops of the Northwest Army arrive, even if he can take Tianshui City with heavy losses at that time, he may not be able to hold it。

Since he retreated to Hejian in such a disgraced manner, how should he explain to his prestige and the moderate faction who were already a little dissatisfied with him? Yu Yongzhi was also able to estimate that perhaps the Northwest Army that had been established had also reached the most difficult time, maybe he was working harder, and maybe he would use two of the most elite 10,000 troops to launch an attack tomorrow, maybe Tianshui City would surrender to his feet tomorrow. But all this is just possible and possible, maybe he will invest another 20,000 people in exchange for heavy losses and humiliation, this time the losses are all subordinate to his own elite henchmen, such a heavy price has made Yu Yongzhi deeply sad, without a subordinate henchman army as a backing, I am afraid that the Holy King can abandon himself at any time.

Thinking of this, Yu Yongzhi couldn't help but shudder, Lan Bailin's gentle and slightly cold face came to mind again, Lan Bailin, who took over the role of his senior brother, had obviously won the full support of the Holy King, Xu Wenzhe and Bo Jinchen's remaining forces had gradually surrendered to Lan Bailin's hands under the hint and acquiescence of the Holy King, and the entire Heshuo was not counted except for the Holy King, and the only one who could compete with his own forces was Lan Bailin, You Daofang's clear and experienced thin face loomed in front of Yongzhi, and a somewhat vague and frightened thought lingered in his heart。

He already controlled more than sixty percent of the military strength of the Heshuo Taiping Army, would the Holy King think that he had too much power and deliberately weaken his own strength? Recalling the Saint King's gentle smile before the expedition, Yu Yongzhi felt that it was not like it, but this thought always lingered in his heart. I should probably really follow the advice of my subordinates to let the army rest and recuperate, and by the way, inquire about the news of staying in the river, maybe the news from the river will help me make a wise decision.

The northern front is in turmoil, but the southern front has already been attacked. The offensive and defensive battle at Loushan Pass had been nearly a week, and the thorough preparation and unwavering fighting spirit of the Maqi Khans had finally paid off. After paying the price of more than 60,000 people, the Maqi Khans finally broke the Loushan Pass, and the combat effectiveness of the Sanjiang army broke out in despair so that the Maqi Khans, who had always been fierce and wild, also expressed their sincere admiration for the elders of the three feudatories of the Tang River Empire in their hearts, six corps that attacked in turn, countless advanced and powerful siege equipment were poured on the fortress wall that did not seem to be too steep, and almost every attacking corps lost more than thirty percent of the troops in front of this fortress, especially the two Yulin Corps lost forty percent。

Due to the large number of deaths and the hot weather, the logistics department could not deal with the corpses of such a scale, so they had to take the means of burning the corpses in a centralized manner and burying them on the spot to prevent the spread of the plague.

When the flying wolf flag of the Maqi Khan people was finally raised at the head of Loushan Pass, Pu Tiancheng couldn't help but burst into tears. In order to capture such a small fortress, he actually paid the price of more than two elite corps, he thought that this was the most tragic and dangerous battle he had ever experienced in his life, he always thought that taking a tough attack was the most incompetent performance of a commander, but as the three generals of the same rank of Macede Khan, Yaning once said a meaningful move at this time: "For the sake of his life, if he can't experience a few hard battles that you will never forget, then he can never be called a successful commander." ”

Countless heroic sons of the Macedhan sacrificed their lives in this battle, and the number of officers above the centurion was as high as 300, and the number of officers above the commander of a thousand was as high as more than 20, and even the commander of 10,000 was killed and two were seriously wounded. Such a terrible price has never been paid by Maqi Khan since the founding of the state, and now it is Pu Tiancheng's turn to bear all this. Although neither the Minister of State stationed in the country nor His Majesty the King of Khan, who was in charge of the southern front, said a word, and praised the importance of obtaining Loushan Pass, this still made the always resolute and unyielding Pu Tiancheng feel depressed.
