Chapter 296: Encounter
At the beginning of the handover, Yang Su sent a school captain as a messenger to go to the Gaoyan Sect along the trail to investigate, the road was slippery in snowy weather, and it was inevitable to stumble along the way. About the fifth watch, the lieutenant was led by a few roadblockers to the newly built city pass, and the snow was flying and the cold air was blowing, and he used deerskin knee pads to protect his knees and feet, and his mood was even worse than the weather.
The general was very angry, and insisted that he brave this ghost weather to come to King Ander to ask him about it, and now he was in a dilemma.
Who has been in the Jinyang military camp who doesn't know King Gao Yanzong of Ande? As the governor of the six towns of Jinyang, Gao Yanzong's temper is as famous as brute force, and if he doesn't get angry, he is naturally a wine and meat brother who is hello, me, everyone, and everyone, once he gets angry, he is really a hooligan who doesn't leave any affection! The captain turned out to be Gao Yanzong's subordinate, but due to the transfer of the new army and horses, he was transferred to Yanzhou, and inexplicably became Yang Su's subordinate.
I was ordered by my new boss to question my old boss, and I felt strange how I heard it. Fortunately, he didn't see Gao Yanzong, but saw his deputy Wang Jun, Wang Jun looked younger than his actual age, a lean and lean little man, wrapped in a heavy fox fur coat, covered with relatively light chain mail, wearing a hat with the same fox skin texture on his head, and covering his ears and chin tightly.
His health is not good, his face is white from the cold weather, but he still does not change his face and inspects the city pass, where the defense is not done well, there are mistakes, this veteran can see at a glance. After his eyes swept over, the lieutenant hurriedly said in a respectful tone:
"I've seen General Wang." The knife-like north wind blew so much that he couldn't open his eyes. Wang Jun's eagle-like gaze was firmly nailed to him, and after a while, he showed a more amiable smile, raised his hand and said:
"It's so cold in here, you haven't eaten a bite of a hot meal all the way here, have you? Come, go upstairs and talk. ”
Turning through the two soldiers' guarded gates, I had to go up to the building, and because of the fire wall, the house was as warm as spring. The guards helped remove the fox fur hat and big hat from Zuo Qigong's body, and Wang Jun was obviously relieved, but his face was still haggard. He picked up a pot of piping hot rice brew from the stove, handed it to the lieutenant, and said, "I almost understand the intention of your General Yang, King Ande is out on the expedition, and he is not here. If there's anything, just look for me. ”
The lieutenant thought for a while, and said straightforwardly: "The general heard that the Turkic army was besieging the general's camp, and he was very uneasy, so he specially sent me to take a look, by the way...... Let's see if there is anything that can help......" The captain himself was embarrassed to say this, Yang Su's original words naturally he didn't dare to convey, most of them were scolding and shoddy words, he automatically abridged a lot, and only these three or two sentences remained. Under Wang Jun's gaze, he actually blushed.
"General Yang really has a heart, but he can hold it, and he can fight at any time if he wants to, so General Yang doesn't have to worry about us." Wang Jun continued: "On the Great Wall like this, we have 20,000 elite soldiers. Yesterday, Ashina took a picture and led 7,000 wolves to ride into Yuyang. There are only more than 10,000 soldiers and horses around the valley, he attacks and defends, they jump like fleas below, we have enough bows and crossbows and arrows on the wall, and the knives and axes are even sharper...... You say, if I'm determined to go out, these people will be enough to see? ”
The lieutenant stubbornly said: "The humble position naturally knows that the governor and the general are both generals, and they are well versed in the way of using troops, so it was not our turn to question it, but now the general's troops and horses are pressed on the entire East Road." General Yang said that Ashina was cunning, and once he cheated, if there was a ......"
Wang Jun pursed his mouth: "I won't go out, what are those Turkic barbarians afraid of?" Take a step and take a look in front of the village. ”
The lieutenant also wanted to see Wang Jun's defense, so he put on his coat and hat again, walked out of the gate building to the masonry platform, and looked through the battlement. With the Great Wall in its back, it looks down on the pass, and all trees that obstruct the view and obstruct the bow and crossbow have been cut down. On the west side, the mountains are even more steep. The Great Wall here faces north and south, and there are several arrow towers built in the middle, locking the chaotic mountains outside the Great Wall.
It's really Xiongguan Mandao. The lieutenant was so shocked that he couldn't speak, this inconspicuous and useless place, as soon as Wang Jun picked it up, it actually became a place of death. After a while, he said: "General Wang is really like a god with soldiers. ”
Wang Jun smiled slightly and replied: "The Turks don't know how to attack fortifications, they only know how to fight in the field, but they are not our opponents in the field, don't look at the battle are all howling like wolves, in fact, nine out of ten are afraid of death."
"We are all soldiers, and there are few people who are afraid of death. So, don't worry too much. As long as the Turks are not copper-headed and iron-armed, I can make them smash their heads under this and kill corpses all over the field. ”
"What if the Turks sacrifice their lives to rush through the pass?"
Wang Jun smiled again, took a fist-sized piece of iron from his entourage and handed it to him. Hard, there are thorns on it, very piercing, the captain finally held it steady, and when he looked at it, it was an iron thistle, he didn't understand what Wang Jun meant. Wang Jun replied: "The horse warfare of the Turks is acceptable, and the rest is not enough, if they want to break through our defenses, the only choice is to charge with cavalry." As early as two days ago, I spread more than a mile of thistle terrestris here, and the Turkic horse team rushed over, do you think what will happen? ”
"Today, these thistles are frozen to death in the soil by the ice and snow, and they can't be shoveled off. Unless it warms up and freezes in February next year, they won't think about it here! Wang Jun's hand pressed against the railing, and his thin and resolute face revealed a fox-like cunning.
"I'll just say this guy is weird!" After Yang Su heard about the return, he got up, turned around a few times with his hands behind his back, and said: "Gao Yanzong, he must have passed from the Great Wall and copied the old path of the Turks!" I can't complain that they have the upper hand but stay in the valley to defend, so I say there must be something strange in this! ”
A kind of general looked at each other and hesitated: "Why is the general so sure, maybe King Ande has gone south?" ”
Yang Su categorically vetoed: "Impossible! Yuyang and other counties are clear and clear, so empty that they can starve rats to death! What is there to be afraid of Gao Yanzong? Even if the army goes south, it will be just a futile effort!
"Gao Yanzong is a soldier who has never been able to figure out the number of roads, maybe he will get on it with a pat on the head, who understands? This person is not only stealing chickens and dogs, but occasionally it is really a bit unexpected. ”
"General, it seems that King Ande and General Wang are nine out of ten stable in suppressing the eastern front, so isn't it necessary for us to come all the way over?" Some generals said with a depressed face.
Yang Su pursed his lips and sneered, and snorted: "Who said it was not necessary?" They are all officials of the same dynasty, Gao Yanzong is such a small person, fighting on all sides, he must be fighting very hard, right? Let's not help, can we? ”
The generals were speechless, isn't this an obvious attempt to grab merit, Yang Su is such a proud and stinky person, when did he look at picking up merit from others? It's clear that they deliberately can't get along with King Ande, what kind of grudge do these two people have?
Yang Su ordered all the soldiers and horses, and as soon as the wind and snow became smaller, he began to march, but his luck was really not very good, and he met a Turkic wolf rider on the way, and the two armies exchanged hands when they landed, and since then, his whereabouts have been completely exposed. Yang Su secretly cursed, and then reined in his horse and rushed into the formation.
According to common sense, the best tactic against the Turks is not to intercept them head-on, unless you have ten times more soldiers under your command. Experienced generals will be able to dismember the enemy ranks from the flanks like chopping melons and vegetables. Doing so will allow some of the enemy to go, but it will minimize the dirt and greatly reduce the casualties on your side.
And Yang Su was caught off guard and fought an encounter, and his troops were slightly less than the opponent's, except for rushing into battle and crippling them before the opponent attacked, he basically didn't have time to make any response. So Yang Su gave up his wings and sent his soldiers to block the front of the team in waves.
Yang Su came and went like the wind, and a long spear tiger stabbed straight into the throat of a warrior with a wolf's head pierced in his chest. Then, with the speed of the war horse, the corpse of the enemy was thrown high. Capture the thief and capture the king first, the person not far in front has so many Turkic warrior guards who are as strong as oxen, it can't be said that he is a big man, and taking him down is a great achievement!
"Ah——!h Seeing Yang Su enter the tiger tearing apart the flock of sheep, the Turkic soldiers let out an exclamation. The formation scattered, but quickly converged. Slaughtered Yang Su in the dark. The Turkic nobleman on the opposite side also drew his scimitar and looked at this side vigilantly. This Central Plains general is not very strong compared to the Turks, but his martial arts are amazing, and his subordinates have never been able to match the enemy!
Many Turks were stunned, and some of them didn't even have time to react, so Yang Su's lance swept across the neck, stabbed and pulled, and cut off the head. Tough mess!
The young Turkic nobleman's eyes also flashed with a different color, and he glanced at the warrior beside him, and the warrior took advantage of Yang Suzheng's stagnation to catch up!
Yang Su shook his lance and swept the two off their horses, and the corner of his eye swept to the four Turkic cavalrymen closest to him and suddenly changed direction and quickly caught them. Seeing that the situation was not good, several generals shouted loudly and moved closer to Yang Su's side. But the direction of the horse's gallop is not something that can be changed if you want to. Seeing that, Yang Su's subordinate door watched the sword light cover Yang Su's figure.
"Dead open!" Yang Su yelled, pointed the lance towards the middle of the flat end, and pulled a big circle with the lance in both hands, doing a sweep of thousands of troops! When he boarded, he threw off all four men and four horses. Yang Su was about to step forward to kill these people, he felt a great murderous intent, he hurriedly fell back, the scimitar almost swept past his scalp, the advantage of the scimitar is to cut rather than chop, and the master of the knife usually prefers to use the speed of the war horse to cut a bloody hole in the opponent's body. It's insidious, but it's practical.
The Turkic warrior sneered and swept away Yang Su's lance with a scimitar, in his opinion, this man was already a lamb to death without the lance. Anger flashed in the eyes of Yang Su, who was lying on his back, and his hand touched the horse's neck, where a long knife was still hanging. The Turkic warrior exclaimed, "Not good! Then he felt the weight change in his hand, and he instinctively looked up, and found a fierce knife light breaking through the curve he had drawn with his scimitar, and slashed straight above his head!
The human head cracked, and blood spurted out at once, drawing a strange curve in the air with the inertia of the war horse. Yang Su's body rushed under the blood waterfall, and it became red when he landed. He didn't have time to wipe the blood on his face, he instinctively turned sideways, and another scimitar slashed against his chest, the blade cut through his heart, pulled up a few sparks, and when he came back to his senses, Yang Su swept the long knife heavily on the waist of the person who crossed by him!
The Turkic nobleman snorted, staggered his horse some distance, turned his head sideways, and his eyes were as fierce as a wolf, and then, he beat his horse and prepared to leave, and the situation in front of him was actually evenly matched. Yang Su was stunned for a moment, suddenly came to his senses, and shouted loudly: "He's taking pictures, don't let him run away!" "Ashina is said to have led his troops south, and Yang Su traveled all the way north without encountering a single soldier of the Turks, until he encountered this group of men and horses, he suddenly reacted.
That's right, why did the Turks have the confidence to leave without destroying Gao Yanzong? Isn't that too confident? Unless Ashina took the picture and was simply deceitful and lured Qi people to send troops. In this offensive and defensive battle, it is not only Ashina who is tight, but Gao Yanzong is under great pressure, and both sides want to put each other to death! He was simply deceiving, luring Gao Yanzong to attack, and then suddenly returned and defeated the Qi army in one fell swoop!
Unexpectedly, it just hit Yang Su's muzzle! "Gao Yanzong, Lao Tzu can be regarded as blocking a knife for you, after this battle, you owe Lao Tzu a favor!" Yang Su gritted his teeth and shouted: "Attack with all your might, don't get away from the enemy chief!" ”
He gave him an annoyed look and rode away. A group of Turks escorted him away, and the remaining servants tried in vain to block Yang Su, Yang Su arbitrarily slashed and killed, and when he waved his arm, a Turkic warrior saw that it was cheap, and stabbed Yang Su directly in the ribs with a scimitar, Yang Su leaned down and dismounted, and smashed him on the ribs with a punch! The Turkic warrior screamed and fell, and then, Yang Su swung his knife and slashed the two Turkic warriors who had surrounded him one by one under the horse!
Another horse galloped over, and at the moment when the opponent's scimitar slashed, Yang Su leaned over and cut off the horse's legs, the two horse's legs were broken together, and the Turkic warrior above flew down from the horse's back and smashed to the ground, breaking his spine instantly!
"Kill ——!" Yang Su rushed forward desperately. As long as it is the Turks who are close to him, his men will not show mercy. Red blood trickled down his shattered armor and was blown away by the wind and frozen into a lump of ice.
"Blow the horn and chase with all your might!" Yang Su turned on his horse again and ordered loudly. Left and right, he touched a bull's horn from his waist and blew it whining. The desolate sound of the horn immediately overshadowed the neighing of the horses, and the order was transferred to the ears of every Qi army who could still get on the horse, and everyone heard the sound and rode their horses closer to Yang Su. Hundreds of people are like a sharp knife, killing the Turks in the back!
