Chapter 497: The Drums Beat Fast
What? Ah Ya was still thinking about how to boil the prince and the left of the earth? His dear father couldn't help but be overjoyed to fight for his son's greater merit.
Sighing helplessly in his heart, Ah Ya had to take the great credit first.
"Father, then I'll retire first and prepare to attack Pingliang Pass." A-Asia said respectfully,
"Pingliang Pass is now less than 100,000 defenders, and after suddenly receiving the news of the defeat in front, the army's heart will be unstable, and morale will be low, so I hope you can fight quickly.
Therefore, the 100,000 troops led by Kunbu will go to support Tuzuo first, and together with Meng Ge and them, they will eat Wei Yan and Xu Block's soldiers and horses for me, so that Pingliangguan will become a fortress in front of us. Timur smiled slightly and said,
"Father, I won't let you down!" Ah Yaya's eyes were resolute, and he arched his hand and said,
"Alright, let's go!" Timur waved his hand and said,
"The 300,000 army was wiped out?" Ma Yue and Guo Jia stood up from their chairs at the same time, their faces full of shock,
"Yes, Ma Shuai, military advisor, that Timur did not die, but took advantage of our assassination to set up a heavy ambush, first lured with a small force, and then surrounded our large army, Guan, Zhang The two generals led 20,000 remnants to break through the siege, and they were on the way back first." The next sergeant said,
"Wei Yan, do the two generals know about this?" Guo Jia stepped forward and asked,
"General Guan ordered me to wait for the time to report back to Pingliang Pass, and also sent someone to deliver the news to the two generals Wei and Xu, according to the time, they should also know the news, but..."
"Just what?" Ma Yue asked anxiously,
"It's just that we found that Timur's scout troops are everywhere within a radius of 100 miles, and whether our scouts can get to the two generals Wei and Xu is a big problem."
"Alright, you can step back first." Guo Jia waved his hand and said,
"Ma Shuai, the situation is extremely dangerous now, Timur should have sent troops to move to my Pingliang Pass at this moment, and now there are only 50,000 soldiers and horses in the city, and it is difficult to resist the enemy." Guo Jia frowned and said,
"Moreover, Wei Yan, the army led by General Xu Fang should have been attacked at this time, and it is estimated that the fiasco is inevitable, I think we should ask General Gao and General Qi for help now, and tell everything here to the Holy Lord, now I hope that General Gao and their 100,000 army can be reinforced in time, otherwise, as soon as Pingliang Pass is broken, the gate of my Yuan Empire will be opened, and Timur will be able to drive straight in!" Guo Jia nodded and said,
"Quickly report this letter to General Gao, this time, the horse substitution will not stop, be sure to report to General Gao as soon as possible!" Ma Yue repeatedly admonished,
The right route army, Tuzuo camp, at this moment is also a soldier coming, Tuzuo heart heaven and man fighting, because the assassination was not successful, he was scared of the heart and gall, fortunately Timur is the real hero of the world, keenly grasp this rare fighter, did not carry out a major purge inside, but temporarily let Tuzuo continue to lead the right army, guilty of meritorious service, Tuzuo is very clear, the so-called meritorious service, is just an expedient measure, since the evil heart once burned, it is difficult to stop, there is his despicable uncle in front of the Great Khan to fan the flames, and now the three parties have almost reached the point of dagger, Tuzuo is no longer in the mood to fight, has been grinding with Wei Yan and them thereand procrastinate for time.
This stalemate was broken after Khumbu joined with an army of 100,000, and Tuzuo was even lower when he saw the joining of friendly forces...
Wei Yan and Xu Block, even more shocked three souls out of the body, said okay Guan, Zhang annihilated A-Asia and then surrounded and annihilated Tuzuo, now there is no Guan Zhang to help, the enemy has increased by 100,000, the battle plan that was originally made, it will be adjusted in a hurry, and it is too late in time.
After Khumbu arrived with his troops, he also brought Timur Khan's edict, Timur was very annoyed by Tuzuo's immobility, and reprimanded Tuzuo harshly, and asked him to attack immediately to eliminate Wei Yan and Xu Block's troops.
On that day, there were 200,000 troops on both sides of Kunbu and Meng Ge, and the sudden attack caused the rout of Wei Yan and Xu Fang, although Tuzuo was unwilling to work hard, but under Timur's order, Tuzuo's right army was still very fierce.
Not long after the herald soldiers asked Gao Shun and Chen to ask for help and left, A-Asia's army had already killed the city, and A-Asia's army did not call for battle, and directly ordered the siege of the city!
"General Wei, what the hell is going on, why didn't General Guan and them show up, but this Kunbu came instead?" Xu Ban was covered with blood at this time, and under the swing of the big axe, one by one the Mongolian soldiers fell off their horses.
"It is estimated that General Guan and they have been defeated, and they haven't even been able to send out the news, how much can we withdraw, how much can we withdraw!" Wei Yan was hit by an arrow in his waist at this moment, and the big knife broke through forward while swinging,
Timur's Chinese army, the 300,000 troops who had just been transferred from the rear and the 100,000 Chinese troops at the moment, a total of 400,000 troops, were advancing towards Pingliang Pass, Timur was sitting on a special chariot, sitting in contemplation, suddenly he knocked on the window of the car, and ordered: "Let Tuzuo, Meng Ge and Kunbu must arrive at Pingliang Pass tomorrow, and within three days, be sure to take Pingliang Pass!"
Pingliang Pass, there have been 20,000 people under the pass, the Mongolian army's crossbow machine is whizzing and firing crossbow arrows, tens of thousands of people, step by step forward, Ah Ya looked gloomily ahead, this is only an hour, and more than 10,000 people are gone, Xiong Guan, Xiong Guan, this is going to be taken down, it is really indispensable to fill it, fill it with his own people, Ah Ya is very unhappy, he also knows that at this time Pingliang Pass is the most vulnerable, the time has dragged on for a long time, and the enemy will counterattack at any time, so, although he is distressed, Ah Ya still gritted his teeth and personally supervised the formation, commanding the soldiers to attack the cityใ
Closed, Ma Yue has not rested for several days, the huge "dong dong" sound of the hammer under the city is always reminding the soldiers on this pass, the sergeant who pushed the city car does not know how many have been shot by them, there are still Mongolian soldiers surging on the city from time to time, hand-to-hand combat is staged all the time, Ma Yue can't remember how many times this is to drive the enemy down, he just feels that he is getting more and more tired, more and more tired...
"Ma Shuai, you just go down and rest! If you continue like this, your body will collapse!" The adjutant general on the side also had bloodshot eyes, and persuaded in a hoarse voice,
"The people in the city have withdrawn, right? Tell the soldiers, hold on a little longer, General Gao's reinforcements are about to arrive. Ma Yue turned around and said,
As soon as the words fell, Guo Jia hurried over: "Ma Shuai, the people in the city have all withdrawn, hold on for another two hours, let's withdraw too!"
"Okay, military advisor, you go first, and I will join you later", Ma Yue heard Guo Jia's notice, and reluctantly came with a little more strength, and said,
"No, since everything has been arranged, I want to defend against the thieves with Ma Shuai on top of this city!" Although Guo Jia did not directly participate in the battle, his face was resolute at this time,
Because Pingliang Pass is to defend against foreign invaders, if you attack from the west, it is necessary to fill in a steady stream of human lives before you can expect to take it, but if you attack from the inside of the pass, because of the terrain, it is relatively easy to attack, which is also the reason why Ma Yue and Guo Jia decided to give up Pingliang Pass in desperation. If it is really necessary to take their lives to attack from the west or from the east, Ma Yue and Guo Jia can only be locked up in people, and the people will die. The so-called stay in the green mountains, not afraid of no firewood.
"Strategist, why are you so troubled? Just you, you have no power to do it, and I have to take care of you if you stay, it will only add to the chaos, let's go first!" Ma Yue said with a wry smile,
Guo Jia also knew that he was useless here, but he was ashamed, he stomped his feet with hatred, Guo Jia's eyes turned red, and he said without looking back: "Ma Shuai, take care, I'm waiting for you!"
As soon as Guo Jia came down from the gate, there was an earth-shattering shout from the gate, and he looked back at Ma Yue who was on the gate, Ma Yue's resolute face was as pale as paper at the moment!
Although the crown prince's name has been decided, but without the support of military merits, he will still be attacked by his insidious uncle, Tuzuo and other forces from the opposition, but this attack is more subtle and darker. The most important thing in the Timurid Empire was military merit, so as soon as the battle against Wei Yan came to an end, Kunbu and Meng Ge were already impatiently rushing over, their eyes showing bloodthirsty desire, it was a desire for victory, no, it should be a desire for higher power.
