Chapter 208: Deployment of Soldiers

Ye Chengwei pointed to the enemy formation in the distance, and said with high morale: "You have seen that big flag, it is where the Chinese army of Kukemo is, but someone dares to take that handsome flag for the general." ”

The general wiped his saber and replied with great interest: "The last general is willing to go." ”

"Good."

Ye Chengwei pointed to the soldiers and horses on the left flank: "I will allocate you two thousand elites and order you to go straight into the Chinese army." ”

The general clenched his saber and rushed forward bravely.

Ye Chengwei ordered the rest of the men and horses to form a formation, quietly waiting for the good news of these dead soldiers.

Seeing that the generals led the dead soldiers to quickly disappear into the sea of people, he held his breath and looked back at the soldiers who rushed out of the pass.

I don't know how long it took, Qi Feng finally followed with the rear army.

"How's the battle going?"

Ye Chengwei looked at Qi Feng, who was proud of the spring breeze, and asked anxiously.

Qi Feng said with a smile: "The marshal took the lead and attracted the attention of the enemy, and the last general took advantage of the unpreparedness of the enemy at the pass to lead the rear army to counterattack the enemy camp and kill 20,000 enemies. ”

"Good."

Ye Chengwei was not happy: "The dead soldiers led by General Chen have already disrupted the enemy's formation, and we must kill them at this time." ”

Qi Feng wiped the blood dripping from the knife: "This time, let the last general take the lead for the big handsome." ”

"I won't fight with you."

Ye Chengwei said with a smile: "Right now, the elite of the enemy army is gathered in the large array of the Chinese army, and you lead all the elites of our army to attack the weakest two wings of the enemy army and attack from both sides." ”

"Wouldn't such a deployment of troops put the commander in danger?"

Qi Feng looked confused.

After fighting with Luo Chuhuai for many years, he has always kept the most elite troops by his side, but Ye Chengwei has left some old, weak, sick and disabled people in the rear, which is really incomprehensible.

"I have my own reasoning."

Ye Chengwei didn't explain much, and ordered him to lead the men and horses to attack in two ways.

After half a day of fierce fighting, by the end of the evening, the Tartar army had already collapsed and fled.

After opening up the main road to Yizhou, seeing that he could enter Yizhou after nightfall, Ye Chengwei ordered the army to move slowly.

Qi Feng didn't expect to enter Yizhou City so easily, and he admired and was full of doubts about Ye Chengwei's arrangement of troops in this battle.

"The marshal is really different from ordinary people, the last general just watched the rear army led by the marshal go straight into the Chinese army's big array, and almost captured the main general of the Tartar army alive, I don't know how the marshal did it?"

Qi Feng asked curiously.

"The reason is very simple, we are putting ourselves to death and then revitalizing, coupled with high morale, even the weakest army can play beyond ordinary combat effectiveness, General Chen and the two thousand dead soldiers under his command did not disappoint the general, and disrupted the enemy camp with only two thousand people."

At this point, Ye Chengwei sighed regretfully: "It's a pity that General Chen and the two thousand brothers under him can't enter Yizhou with us." ”

"Now that several border cities have fallen, hundreds of people have been displaced, and it is the duty of those of us who are soldiers to protect our families and defend the country, and General Chen will die a heroic death."

As soon as he thought of the situation in Beijing, Qi Feng felt aggrieved:

"I waited for a bloody battle at the border pass, but those few people in the capital only knew how to compete for the big position, the handsome, the truth is not hidden, the last general had heard the governor of the capital before leaving, Yan Gongzi and General Sun's war preparations are inseparable from King Fu, since the death of Zhuo Guifei, King Fu has no one to take care of in the palace, knowing that the holy favor is not as good as King Yun, he has already instructed Zhang Xian to raise Kou to respect himself, which has led to no progress in the border pass and the Tartar war over the years."

"I know."

Ye Chengwei smiled bitterly: "Power has always charmed people's minds, and people who are deeply trapped in the whirlpool of power will naturally only value the authority in their hands. ”

The two of them opened their hearts and said the bitter water all the way, and as soon as they arrived at the city of Yizhou, they saw Qin Yi, the general guarding the city, personally greet him with his subordinate generals and officials in the city.

Everyone was overjoyed and looked forward to reinforcements like a great drought looking forward to Ganlin, seeing the figures of Ye Chengwei and Qi Feng, Qin Yi couldn't help but burst into tears, and complained while welcoming the army into the city: "The two generals, after guarding Yizhou City for half a year, sent out no less than dozens of messengers, and finally looked forward to the army of the imperial court. ”

"What is the current situation in Yizhou City?"

What Ye Chengwei wants to know most now is the situation in the city.

"Since the death of General Sun Ting, the 80,000 troops of Xicheng Pass held on for several months, and finally had to fight and retreat, losing nearly half of the men and horses and finally retreated to the city of Yizhou."

Qin Yi sighed: "Now that Yanmen Pass has been lost, more than ten cities in the Datong defense line have fallen into the hands of the Tartars, and the last general is incompetent, so he can only try his best to hold Yizhou City and protect hundreds of thousands of people in the city from the nuisance of war, but now Yizhou has become an isolated city, if there is no good way to retreat from the enemy, the people will starve to death in the city sooner or later." ”

Ye Chengwei knew that the current situation was not optimistic, although he narrowly defeated and retreated from the enemy today, but once the enemy army regrouped, he would definitely besiege Yizhou again, and Zhang Xian refused to send troops to help, so he had to think of another idea.

"General Qi, how much grain and grass do we have with our army?"

Qi Feng calculated: "The transportation to the city can still support more than a month, but if it is distributed to the soldiers and civilians in the city, I am afraid that it will not last long." ”

Ye Chengwei pondered for a moment, looked at Qin Yi with a smile, and signaled: "General Qin, the soldiers of our army have been rushing from Yanmen Pass in the past few days, and they are very tired, so prepare more wine and food tonight for everyone to have a full meal, as for the next, now we still have no less than 100,000 people in one place, and we have more than enough to hold on, but if we want to get out of the predicament, it is not a good strategy to blindly stick to it." ”

Mentioning this matter, Qin Yi was miserable: "How can the last general not know, he has repeatedly asked for help from the governor of Datong Mansion, last year the royal family in Mobei was turbulent, and I also strongly recommended that Zhang Dudu take the initiative to send troops, but he refused to send troops on this is the enemy's strategy to lure the enemy, Yizhou has been besieged for several months, and he has not seen him send troops to rescue him." ”

"It's okay."

Ye Chengwei smiled evilly at a few people: "Now that the general is sitting at the border, he can't tolerate some lazy politics, Datong Mansion is the throat of my great cause and cannot afford to lose, today's new defeat of the enemy army is a good time for our army to regain the lost territory, General Qi, you quickly sent a message to Zhang Xian, saying that our army wants to march into Wuzhou, and ordered him to personally lead the army to attack Shuozhou, if he disobeys the military order, he will ignore the law of the imperial court." ”

Qi Feng's heart was like a mirror, Zhang Xian was ordered by King Fu and King Yun to deliberately introduce Ye Chengwei into Xinzhou City to be besieged by enemy troops.

I'm afraid that they didn't expect Ye Chengwei to be able to break through the encirclement and reach Yizhou smoothly, and he also achieved a great victory.

Now, he wanted to see what else these people could do.

So according to Ye Chengwei's meaning, he wrote a few urgent military orders and sent people to Datong Mansion overnight.

In October, Ye Chengwei led the army to five cities, and Zhang Xian also personally led the army to attack Shuozhou, but before he reached the city of Shuozhou, he encountered an ambush, lost his armor all the way, and even Datong Mansion was lost, so he had to lead the remaining men and horses to retreat to Fenzhou Mansion.

Failed to get the support of reinforcements from Datong Mansion, which led to the fall of Wuzhou again, Qin Yi died in battle, and Ye Chengwei and Qi Feng had to retreat to Xinzhou again, falling into a heavy siege and waiting for help.
