Chapter 90: The Calculation of the Count
The two [***] teams each returned to their camps. Although Qin Tuo had Chiyun armor to protect himself, the injuries he suffered were not light, especially where there was no armor to protect his waist, a lot of blood oozed out, and with the support of Ye Yuechen and Wang Tianhao, he endured the pain and returned to the camp.
And the people came down from the wall. Seeing this, Yue Tianya still pretended to be injured, clutched his chest and said, "General Qin, the old man's skills are not as good as others, and he can't help you out of the siege, I'm ashamed." Qin Tuo glanced at him lightly and did not speak, but held the hands of Ye Yuechen and Wang Tianhao, and said "Thank you".
Yue Tianya was very embarrassed, his eyes kept glancing at Ye Yuechen, as if to say, "When did this kid become so powerful, I wanted him to die on the battlefield, but I didn't expect to come back unharmed and save Qin Tuo." Unexpectedly, his eyes happened to be captured by Ye Yuechen, and he smiled faintly at Yue Tianya, his expression seemed to be paying tribute to him, "I'm sorry, Master Yue, are you disappointed that I didn't die?" Even if you don't recommend me to go to the battlefield, I will go myself." β
Xi Yan came to everyone with a smile at this time, gave a thumbs up to Ye Yuechen and Wang Tianhao, and then said, "In this battle, our army won a complete victory, annihilating more than 4,000 East Turkistan troops, four trebuchets, one city-breaking vehicle, and seriously injured the enemy general, although our army also lost nearly 100 people, but in comparison, this damage is nothing at all." β
When everyone heard this, they were all overjoyed, and Ye Yuechen's heart still hadn't calmed down at this time, and he seemed to be still immersed in the joy of killing the enemy, and he himself didn't expect that this feeling of galloping on the battlefield would be so enjoyable and hearty. Before he knew it, he fell in love with this feeling of sweat and blood.
"Although the harvest is quite rich, the walls of Wantong Pass have been seriously damaged, and I am afraid that it will not be able to withstand the second attack. The fighting power of the East Turkistan army is beyond my imagination. Yugon worried.
Qin Tuo had already tied gauze to the wounds at this time, and said indifferently, "Marshal, don't worry, we didn't plan to defend Wantong Pass strictly, only by letting the East Turkistan army jump into the trap we designed can we annihilate them in one fell swoop, and we are reluctant to let the children trap the wolf, and when we defeat them, this city is still ours." β
Xiyan nodded reluctantly, this empire's Zhi Duoxing has spent his whole life in the construction of the country, although this time it is only designed to temporarily give up Wantong Pass, but there are still thousands of reluctances in his heart.
The East Turkistan army also retreated to a camp 500 meters away. Yuri sat on his chair at this moment and was furious, and asked, "National Teacher, didn't you say that they would give us the city? β
Hidden Ji looked at Yuri, his eyes were full of disdain, in his opinion, the king of Eastern Turkistan in front of him was really mindless.
"O king, do you really want them to bring the city to you before you to believe that they will give it to you? Since this is a game they have set up, it must be played a little more seriously, they do not know that the king has mastered their strategy, and if they do not resist at all, even a fool can see that there is a deception in it. β
Although Yuri was furious, but Hidden Hime's words made him speechless, so he had to suppress his anger to the bottom of his heart, and asked instead, "Then the national teacher saw that our army was frustrated today, why didn't he come to help?" With your strength, I don't think those people today are opponents at all. β
Yin Ji said, "Since they are going to hand over the city sooner or later, why do the Heavenly Demon Sect need to make a move, wouldn't it be more effective to surprise when necessary?" Of course, this is not what Yin Ji is talking about, in fact, what he really wants to say is: You and the Eastern Turkistan Army are just pawns of the Heavenly Demon Sect, and I will help you? This is not a joke, I just want to see one result, that is, the East Turkistan and the Dragon Drive will both lose, and then the Heavenly Demon Sect will reap the benefits of the fisherman. And poor Yuri really believes that Hidden Ji will work hard for Dongtu at that time, which is really stupid and naΓ―ve, ridiculous!
It's night again, and the moon at the border looks exceptionally bright.
"The scenery is different in autumn, and the geese in Hengyang go without paying attention, and the sound of the corners rises on all sides;
In the thousands of mountains, the long smoke fell and the lonely city was closed.
A glass of turbid wine is thousands of miles away, Yan Ran has no plan, and the Qiang tube is full of frost;
People are sleepless, and the general's white hair is in tears. β
Ye Yuechen sat alone in the room and inadvertently read this poem.
After experiencing the war himself, Ye Yuechen thought of many things in his heart. Although he likes to kill enemies back and forth on the battlefield, if there is no war, many people will not lose their surnames, and their fathers and uncles will not die so early. Longli Village is so close to Wantong Pass, he really wants to go back to see where he used to live and go to Ye Tao's grave to pay respects, but he can't, the enemy is current, and the love of children can only be put aside for the time being.
After a night's rest, the East Turkistan army called for battle in front of the city gate early the next morning, Yue Ji and Qiao Ba still had the same posture as the day before, and it seemed that their injuries had healed, so that Ye Yuechen had to admire their strong **.
Xi Yan stood at the head of the city, looking at the dense East Turkistan army and said, "We will abandon the city today, so as not to cause greater damage, after the East Turkistan army occupies the city, it will definitely push the battle line inward, as long as they enter Longli Town, they will fall into our trap." β
Everyone nodded approvingly, so under the overwhelming attack of the East Turkistan army, the defenders of the city only symbolically resisted, and then retreated to Longli Town.
After two days of observation, Yugen had decided to hide a part of his army in the "Valley of Sound". The valley is the only way to enter Longli Town from Wantong Pass, the valley is surrounded by stone walls on both sides, up to 100 meters, and in the middle is a long and narrow passage, as long as the archers and trebuchets are arranged on the top of the stone walls on both sides, when the East Turkistan army comes, they will become the turtles in the urn.
Xiyan informed everyone of his plan, and Yue Tianya was secretly overjoyed after hearing it, as long as he grasped the next plan of the Dragon Drive army, he could pass the news to Yuri, and then it would not be East Turkistan that would be defeated.
The second battle lasted only one hour, and neither side suffered much damage, and the East Turkistan army could be said to have taken Wantong Pass this time "easily." The whole army was immersed in the joy of victory, and Yuri, a fool, also threatened to reward the three armies, but everyone didn't know that Ye Yuechen had already prepared a "plan within a plan" waiting for them.
After Xiyan and his party retreated to Longli Town, they arranged their troops early, but a day passed, but the East Turkistan army did not make any noise. This made him wonder a little, "Why doesn't Yuri take advantage of the victory to chase after him?" β
Ye Yuechen knew very well in his heart that Yue Tianya had already informed Yuri of the ambush, and they should have some scruples and were discussing countermeasures, so they did not take action for a long time, and only when Yue Tianya's next news arrived, they would send troops to attack.
And Yue Tianya's behavior also confirmed Ye Yuechen's thoughts, since the battle the day before, he hid in the room almost all day and night thinking about countermeasures on the grounds that he was seriously injured, others might believe that he was really injured, but all this could not escape Ye Yuechen's sharp eyes.
"I'd like to see what kind of tricks you can do. At this time, it was already night, and Ye Yuechen, like before, wore night clothes to Yue Tianya's residence, Baiyue Inn.
