Chapter 352, I want to be a yellow sparrow.
Yang Peng said suddenly: "Tubo, will Tubo send troops at this time?" ”
Yang Erya wanted to speak, but she couldn't help it, looking at Han Bing on the side, in her heart, since Sister Han Bing is here, she shouldn't talk too much! Han Bing pondered: "The greatest possibility for the Tubo people is to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, but I am not sure. It is also possible that they thought that the Khitan Kingdom and the Western Xia had joined forces and had a huge momentum, and they immediately sent troops! Yang Peng frowned, and suddenly felt that there was a very bad thing in this era, that is, the efficiency and timeliness of intelligence acquisition, which seriously affected his own decision-making and deployment, and strategy and strategy were actually gambling to a large extent! Although there are secret agents in the ambush in Tibet, it may be difficult to obtain accurate information in a short period of time, but the military situation is like fire, and many things must be planned and decided now, if you wait for the exact information to come before deciding, I am afraid it will be too late!
If it is judged that Tubo will not send troops, then there is no need to do anything, and if it is judged that Tubo will send troops, then a group of troops and horses should be divided from Yanmen Pass to help Qinfeng Road. This is naturally risky, if the Khitans do not really retreat, Yanmen Pass will transfer a force of soldiers and horses, which will inevitably put Yanmen Pass in danger, so it is not a last resort, can not divide the army, and this depends on the judgment of whether Tubo will send troops. Some people may say that troops can be transferred from other directions to support, but don't forget the problem of grain and grass, due to the shortage of grain and grass in Yanyun, it is impossible to transfer troops from other directions, so they can only transfer troops from the direction of Yanmen.
Han Bing said: "Big brother, don't worry too much, our envoy must have arrived in Dali, and Dali will inevitably send troops to contain Tubo!" Besides, we have the eighth and ninth legions on Qinfeng Road, with a total of 120,000 soldiers and horses, and with their strength, they should be able to resist the possible invasion of the Tuboans! ”
Yang Peng nodded slowly, looked up into the distance, his brows furrowed tightly, he believed that Dali would send troops, but how much of a role could Dali's army play? If he is the emperor of Tubo, he only needs to deploy 20,000 soldiers and horses in Daxue Mountain, then Dali will use all the strength of the whole country to attack north, and it will not achieve any effect, and the main army of Tubo can still attack Qinfeng Road. Once Tubo sends troops, whether it can hold Qinfeng Road depends on the two legions on their side, and Dali is afraid that it will be unreliable.
Turning his gaze to the Tubo royal capital, a harmonious banquet had just ended in the Tubo Palace, and the Tubo Emperor personally sent Li Qingxia out of the hall, and after Li Qingxia's figure disappeared into the night, he led several important ministers around him back to the main hall.
The emperor glanced at the ministers and asked, "What do you think of the Western Xia's suggestion?" ”
The general Zanbu said loudly: "Your Majesty, this is a good opportunity from the Buddha!" The Khitans and the Western Xia people are fighting a fierce battle with Yanyun, and we can take the opportunity to send troops, and we will be ashamed! ”
Zambala said, "I'm afraid it's not that simple. Wasn't it a great opportunity before, but the result was very unexpected! At that time, Yan Yun was almost defenseless against us, but now Yan Yun has 120,000 troops on Qinfeng Road, if we rush to send troops, I am afraid that the result will be worse than at that time! ”
When Zambo heard Zambala mention of the last defeat, he was very unhappy, and looked at Zambala and said angrily: "The situation is completely different twice!" In fact, last time, if it weren't for the fact that King Yan suddenly led a large group of elite cavalry to help, our army would have broken through Qinfeng Road, but this time it was impossible for them to come to reinforcements, according to reliable intelligence, Yanyun had insufficient grain and grass, and all the grain and grass were transported to Yanmen Pass, and the troops in other directions could not be mobilized at all, while the army in Yanmen Pass was difficult to move under the pressure of the Khitan army. Now is a great time to send troops to Yanyun, if you miss this opportunity, I am afraid that there will never be such a good opportunity! Yanyun Tiger Wolf, if we don't take the opportunity to destroy it, how can we have a peaceful day in Tibet? ”
Zanbu Tai's words made the monarch and ministers nod again and again, and the emperor said: "The general said it well! This is indeed a great opportunity for me! I decided to take this opportunity to mobilize 400,000 troops from all departments to attack Qinfeng Road! General, you are the general of the unified army, and you will expand the territory of Tibet for me! "Zanbu is too happy to promise.
Li Qingxia and his entourage returned to the hotel, and Li Qingxia sat alone at the desk and fell into deep thought. At this moment, a cronie rushed in, came behind Li Qingxia, bowed down and whispered: "Princess, just now General Zanbu sent someone to summon the news, saying that the Tubo Emperor has decided to raise an army of 400,000 to attack Yanyun Qinfeng Road!" Li Qingxia showed a look of surprise on her face, "Great! With the dispatch of troops from Tibet, the overall situation is in our hands! He turned his head and said to his cronies: "Immediately order, tomorrow we will rush to the Song Kingdom, I will add another fire!" "Yes!"
The Tubo Emperor made up his mind to pass on the holy decree, so the armies of the various ministries began to assemble, and the Tubo sharpened his sword and prepared to make a move against Yan Yun.
Yan Yunjun's scouts flew into Xining Prefecture on fast horses. Zhou Dayong, the commander of the Ninth Legion, got the news and hurried to the hall, and as soon as the dusty scouts saw Zhou Dayong, they knelt down on one knee and reported: "General, Tubo has gathered 400,000 troops, with Zanbutai as the main commander, and is ready to attack Qinfeng Road!" Zhou Dayong smiled, "Good guy, the Tubo people are not willing to be lonely!" Okay, come on! General Ben's Blue Dragon Glaive Knife hasn't drunk blood for a long time! Then he said to the scout: "You immediately rush to the Stone Fortress and inform General Si Xingfang of this situation!" The scout said yes and ran down.
Zhou Dayong called the officers of the army and ordered him to send orders to the generals of all armies to come to the marshal's mansion to discuss matters, and the officers took the order and left.
At about the same time, the border counties and towns were in chaos, and the people who had learned the news of the imminent invasion of Tibet fled to the interior in a hurry, and the originally very prosperous border counties and towns were in a chaotic and panicked scene, and soon after, the residents fled, and the counties and towns became a mess, silent, and even the sound of dogs barking and roosters disappeared without a trace.
Yan Yun's army withdrew all the troops scattered in various small fortresses on the border, preparing to rely on Xining and Jishi Fortress to stop the enemy. At the same time, all the scouts spilled out, and hurried away at a gallop.
Two days later, the outside of the city had become extremely silent, and the people who had fled had fled into the interior, and there was not even a single person outside the city who had not a single poultry or livestock, and it felt as if they had entered a wild world as soon as they left the city. It was too quiet, the west wind blew, blowing the treetops swaying and dancing, the soldiers' clothes and belts were also blown, the battle flags were hunting, the red tassels swayed with the wind, the sky was full of clouds, and from time to time bright lightning appeared in the clouds and made a loud bang, shaking the heavens and the earth, flashing all the scenery between the heavens and the earth, as if a heavy rainstorm was about to come.
The sound of horses' hooves came from afar, and it was very harsh in this silent world....... The soldiers on the city wall followed the prestige, and saw a fast horse galloping from afar, it was their own scout cavalry.
The scout galloped to the city gate, and reined in the war horse, which neighed and stood up, and then the scout shouted: "Open the city gate quickly, I have an urgent military situation!" ”
The gates immediately opened, and the scouts galloped in. Immediately, the scout appeared in front of Zhou Dayong, knelt down and said: "General Qiyu, the Tubo army has crossed the border and is coming towards Xining and Jishi Fortress in two ways!" Zhou Dayong remained silent and said to the scout: "Explore again!" The scout answered and ran down, followed by the sound of horses' hooves, and saw the scout gallop out of the city.
Kala! There was a sudden loud bang in the sky, filling the entire heaven and earth, making people's eardrums numb, and at the same time, the flash of white light shone the city and Yanyun soldiers into a snow-white color. Then the sky suddenly darkened, and then there was a loud noise, and a heavy rain fell from the sky, and the originally good vision suddenly became very hazy, and the soldiers standing on the city wall could hardly see the scene a few steps away. The water poured down, countless streams appeared on the ground outside the city in an instant, the city wall was also gurgling, the city gate tower was surrounded by a curtain of water, and every soldier was already vividly and vividly.
A moment later, the rain intensified, and the soldiers suddenly saw one of the scouts running under the city gates, and the sound of horses' hooves was so strong that they could not hear the sound of horses' hooves. The scout reined in his horse and threw his mouth wide open to the wall, but the people on the wall did not hear anything. The gates opened, and the scouts galloped in. A moment later, the scout rushed to Zhou Dayong, knelt down on one knee, and shouted: "General Qiyu, the enemy army is only more than twenty miles away from the city!" Zhou Dayong was a little surprised and muttered, "It's so fast!" Glancing at the scout, "Probe!" The scout answered and ran down, only to see the scout's figure disappear into the heavy rain.
Zhou Dayong was worried that the Tubo army would take advantage of the majestic rain and poor vision to sneak attack the city, so he urgently ordered the four gates to strengthen their vigilance, and at the same time made all armies prepare for battle. He himself stood on the gate tower of the west city with his sword, staring at the outside of the city with his eyes wide open, waiting for the arrival of the Tubo army.
After about half an hour, the rain had subsided so much that the sight could already be seen miles away, when the scouts came galloping from a distance, and the sound of horses' hooves clattering could be heard in the noisy rain. A moment later, the scout galloped into the city, followed him up to the city gatehouse, and reported to Zhou Dayong: "General, the Tibetan army has suddenly retreated!" Guan Sheng was stunned for a moment, thinking that he had heard it wrong, and hurriedly asked, "What did you say?" The scout repeated: "The Tibetan army has suddenly retreated!" The retreat was very hasty, and many heavy baggage supplies were thrown down! Zhou Dayong's head couldn't turn for a while, and he felt inexplicable.
Immediately, Zhou Dayong frowned and said: "I'm afraid it's a conspiracy of the Tubo people, let's explore it again!" The scout answered, and ran out of the city. Zhou Dayong stood on the tower of the city gate, frowning, thinking about what tricks the Tubo people were playing?!
Soon after, the scouts came with news that all the Tibetans had retreated into their own territory, and half an hour later, news also came from the side of the Jishi Fortress that the Tibetan army that had entered the Jishi Fortress had also retreated, and they were also in a hurry. Zhou Dayong really didn't know what was going on, so he didn't dare to be careless, but still ordered all troops to be on strict guard and not to act rashly, and at the same time sent scouts to reconnoiter from all sides to prevent the Tubo people from playing the trick of sneak attack.
However, a day and a night passed, and nothing was found wrong, but the exact news was that after the Tubo army retreated to Qingtang, the main army immediately rushed to the south, looking very urgent. Another day later, news came, saying that Dali had exhausted the country's 200,000 troops to the north, broke through the defense line of Tubo's snow-capped mountains, and the troops threatened the interior of Tubo. Zhou Dayong waited until then to understand what was going on, and was very surprised by how things had developed.
The Dali army raided Tubo, naturally at the request of the King of Yan, they obviously understood the stakes, so they did their best as soon as they made a move, but they did their best to help, but it was not entirely to maintain the alliance with Yan Yun in the future to get assistance, according to the Dali prince Duan Zhichun said: "Now is a great opportunity, the Tubo people have transferred heavy troops to Qin Feng Road, their attention is on Yan Yun's body, they haven't noticed us at all, and they have always looked down on us, We can take this opportunity to take the whole country to conquer the Great Snow Mountain! If we can succeed, our northern situation in Dali will take a fundamental turnaround, and the Tubo people can no longer rely on the Great Snow Mountain to invade our Dali, and if they want to invade Dali, they must cross the Great Snow Mountain, which has become our barrier against Tibet! ”
However, the combat strength of the Tubo army is higher than that of the Dali army, and relying on the moat of the Great Snow Mountain, even if the Dali army is ten times that of the Tubo army, how can it be captured in an instant? It was also the Tubo people who were too careless to underestimate the enemy, and they didn't take the Dali people in their eyes at all, so that they neglected to take precautions, until the elite of Dali had already attacked the Tubo military camp, and most of them had not reacted. The Tubo army was horrified in the face of the sudden arrival of the Dali army, but then launched a fierce counterattack under the organization of the general, and the Dali army was almost driven down the snow mountain by the Tubo army for a while, but fortunately, at the critical time, Duan Zhichun led the ironclad army to arrive, and a vicious battle finally smashed the counterattack of the Tubo people, and then destroyed the withering and decaying and captured the entire snow mountain fortress. The Dali army succeeded in a blow, but it was also a big loss, the urgent news came to the Tubo Palace, the court was shaken, and the monarchs and ministers could no longer care about the autumn wind of Yanyun, so they quickly ordered the army to withdraw and counterattack the Snow Mountain. In this way, Qin Fenglu's danger was solved without a fight.
Li Qingxia, the princess of Western Xia, suddenly received the news on the way to the Song Kingdom, and was shocked, she couldn't help frowning, she didn't expect Dali to help Yanyun, but she always thought that Dali's small army was weak, even if she sent troops, Tubo should be able to deal with it, but she didn't expect Dali to make an extraordinary move, and actually attacked the extremely important snow-capped fortress in the southeast of Tubo in one fell swoop.
Li Qingxia sighed, but muttered: "It doesn't matter, even if there is no Tubo army, you should be able to defeat the Yanyun army!" The generalissimo must have captured Yinzhou at this moment. As long as Yinzhou is captured, the Yan Yun army will be defeated! Turning his head to look out of the car, his thoughts couldn't help but fly to Yinzhou, thousands of miles away.
Li Zongdao, the generalissimo of Western Xia, led an army of 300,000 to march into Yinzhou, and at the same time, Li Cunxiao, the general of the right wing, led his Snow Mountain Army and tens of thousands of civilian troops to garrison Hongzhou to contain Yang Yanzhao's Yanyun army on the Great Wall Ridge.
Li Cunxiao stood in front of the sand table, his brows furrowed, the information he received in the past few days made him very confused and uneasy, and he always felt that something was wrong, he felt that there didn't seem to be many Yan Yunjun on the Great Wall Ridge opposite. A herald came in, saluted Li Cunxiao, and asked, "General, what do you command?" Li Cunxiao walked up to him and ordered: "You immediately rush to the generalissimo's side and remind him to be cautious!" The herald answered, and ran down.
Li Cunxiao looked at the Great Wall Ridge on the map and muttered: "Whether there is a problem or not, you will know after a dozen!" As soon as he thought of this, he issued an order, ordering the people's army to defend the city, and all the 60,000 snow-capped mountain troops were assembled, and he personally led them to the Great Wall Ridge.
In half a day, the army arrived at the foot of the Great Wall Ridge, and Li Cunxiao personally went out to shout a challenge, but after shouting for a long time, there was no movement on the opposite Great Wall Ridge. Li Cunxiao felt that the situation was not right, he and Yan Yunjun had fought several vicious battles, and he knew Yan Yunjun's style well, and he would never hear the challenge and turn a deaf ear and shrink away, Li Cunxiao affirmed his previous judgment even more. Turning the horse's head back to the army, he said loudly: "The left wing army will attack the east side of the Great Wall Ridge, and the right wing army will attack the west side of the Great Wall Ridge, give me all the strength to attack!" The generals agreed in unison.
Immediately, the rumbling war drums rang out, and the 20,000 Snow Mountain Army launched an attack on the left and right sides of the Great Wall Ridge! The snow mountain army was very fast, rushing like a tide, and in a blink of an eye, it was halfway up the mountainside! At this time, the rolling stones and trees on the mountain poured down, arrows flew like locusts, and the Snow Mountain Army that rushed in front was defeated one after another, the offensive of the Snow Mountain Army was frustrated, and the defensive strength of the Yanyun Army was as strong as ever!
Li Cunxiao frowned, and said secretly: "Could it be that I guessed wrong! Looking up at the Great Wall Ridge, I saw flags on display, figures of people longing, and the troops were obviously very strong. Li Cunxiao hesitated for a moment, and said to a very fierce general beside him: "Li Chongshan, you lead your soldiers and horses to attack the front for me!" Li Chongshan promised loudly, then hit his horse and shouted, "Follow me!" Then he beat his horse and ran towards the front of the Great Wall Ridge, only to see the crowd of people in the army, and 10,000 soldiers and horses came out of the battle to follow Li Chongshan towards the front of the Great Wall Ridge.
Li Chongshan led his soldiers and horses to the foot of the mountain, looked up, the leopard's eyes showed excitement and bloodthirstiness, raised his big knife, and shouted loudly: "Brothers, follow me, rush up, kill all the Han people!" His soldiers shouted in unison with excitement. Li Chongshan rode his horse and rushed towards the mountain, and his 10,000 soldiers also rushed up with shouts, looking from a distance, it seemed like a large group of ants were rapidly climbing the mountain.
Li Cunxiao stared at them, his right hand gripping the hilt of the knife tightly.
Suddenly, I saw that there were rolling stones and trees flying down the mountain and smashing into the snow mountain army, as if a few small stones were thrown into the huge waves, causing some ripples, and that's all, it was impossible to stop the momentum of the snow mountain army's charge. Seeing this, Li Cunxiao's eyes showed surprise, and he muttered, "It's really as I expected!" As I expected! The main force of Yanyun here has been transferred! Then he became anxious, turned his head and shouted at the drummer, "Give me all the drums, and you can't stop without my orders!" The drummer received the order and beat the drum with all his strength, and the loud rumbling sound echoed like rolling thunder between heaven and earth.
Li Chongshan and his men had already rushed halfway up the mountain and were rapidly approaching the top of the mountain. There are constantly sparse rolling stones and trees flying down on the mountain, mixed with arrows, and the Snow Mountain Army continues to have casualties, but the momentum of the charge has not been stopped at all, this is of course because the Snow Mountain Army is brave and extraordinary, but also because the defense strength of the Yan Yun Army is very weak, there are obviously not many Yan Yun Army in this direction! Li Cunxiao saw the banner exhibition on the Great Wall Ridge, but there were not many Yanyun's soldiers under the shadow of the banner in the sky!
Seeing that the Snow Mountain Army was about to rush to the Great Wall Ridge, a roar came from the ridge, and the soldiers of the Western Xia Army were all shocked, and then they saw a heroic and extraordinary Yanyun warrior galloping down with two spears, followed by five hundred war horses. They rushed down from the ridge suddenly, like a rushing torrent, unstoppable for thousands of miles!
Li Chongshan hurriedly ordered the shield bearers to step forward and form a shield wall. As soon as the shield wall was lined up, Yan Yun's war horse had already rushed in front of him, roaring angrily, and the war horse galloped wildly! The brave soldiers of the Snow Mountain Army couldn't help but show a hint of horror! In the blink of an eye, the cavalry torrent slammed into the shield defense line of the Snow Mountain Army, only to hear a thrilling loud bang in Kerala, and the shield defense line of the Snow Mountain Army collapsed in an instant! Yanyun cavalry slaughtered into the middle of the Snow Mountain Army, indomitable, the rushing horses' hooves knocked the Snow Mountain Army flying and trampled, the wielded swords and guns raised the blood and water in the sky, the roar was mixed with the sound of the horses' hooves, roaring, like a raging tide! The Snow Mountain Army shouted and tried desperately to block it, but where could they stop this kind of mighty momentum! On the long hillside, I saw that the Snow Mountain Army was being cut from the middle!
Li Cunxiao suddenly saw such a scene, was taken aback, thought for a while, and immediately led five thousand snow-capped mountain horsemen to meet him.
Ma Qiang led 500 war cavalry all the way to the bottom of the mountain, and before he had time to stop, he saw Li Cunxiao's personal commander 5,000 snow mountain war horses surging forward. Ma Jian had no choice but to lead his war horses to meet them with a roar. Seeing that the five hundred Yanyun war cavalry rushed into the middle of the enemy army, he immediately saw the two wings of the snow mountain war cavalry quickly surround him, surrounding Ma Jian and his five hundred war cavalry in the middle. Ma Qiang led his cavalry to fight hard, but he found that he seemed to be stuck in a huge quagmire, no matter how hard he tried to kill, he couldn't break through the encirclement of the snowy mountain cavalry, and he rushed through one heavy and two, three and four and surrounded him, and the swords and guns kept killing the enemy, but the enemy in front of him seemed to kill more and more! The Yanyun army began to suffer casualties continuously, and one by one the brave cavalry fought hard in the heavy encirclement of the enemy army, and died in battle! The mournful roars of the war horses sounded one after another, and one by one the Yanyun soldiers were drowned by the tide of the enemy army!
At the same time, Li Chongshan, who was on the hillside, regrouped his army and continued to attack the ridge. Rolling stones and arrows were constantly falling down on the ridge, but they could not stop their progress at all, and they rushed faster and faster, closer and closer to the ridge, and the roar became louder and louder, they really looked like a group of bloodthirsty beasts.
After all, what happened next, and listen to the next breakdown.
