Chapter 2152 The iron dragon is coming
In the deep winter, the war outside the Youzhou Pass in Liangzhou became more and more intense. The Liangyan and Yan fought hard and did not cease to fight in the severe cold season as in previous years.
Since Shen Tu Longfu began to preside over the front line battle, the strictness of the Yan army's troops deployment has suddenly increased by several levels.
Not only can it easily resolve the Liang army's fierce and proactive attacks again and again, it will also lure the enemy into deeper and try to eat the main force of the Liang army during a certain war.
This situation has rarely happened before.
For example, five days ago, the tiger and leopard cavalry went out of seclusion to fight, and the single-single cavalry used the cost of a thousand old soldiers to kill to attract the tiger and leopard cavalry to go deeper.
If Yan Hongyi hadn't had a quick reaction and the arrival of the Red Flame Army in time, he would have been afraid that the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry would be eaten by the Shentu Jing Cavalry who was ambushing behind him.
Of course, with Xue Tian and Zhuge Hutu together in charge of Wuguan, and Chen Yue coordinated the overall situation, the Yan army failed to take advantage of the loophole.
The black-bottomed silver tiger flag was even more arrogant, challenging the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and Red Flame Army one after another. After several fierce battles, both sides lost some of their soldiers.
The number one of the Eight Banners is indeed extraordinary. Even the veteran general Yan Hongyi admitted that if the tiger and leopard cavalry meet with the black-bottomed silver tiger flag, it is the limit to be able to defeat 20,000 people on the other side when the entire army dies in battle.
However, the Jin Langwei completely disappeared and never appeared on the front battlefield.
I think Mu Yun Canglan will use Jin Langwei as his final trump card, which will be a final result at critical moments.
The military newspapers were sent from various fronts to Chen Yue's hand. Chen Yue, who held the military newspaper, sighed:
"After all, the war god of Yanrong clan has been famous for a long time. We have hardly gained any advantage in half a month, and we have encountered several dangers."
Even Chen Yue felt the pressure from Shen Tu Longfu.
Xue Tian chuckled:
"Prince, let's not belittle ourselves. After all, the Yan army has the advantage in its military strength. It's great that we can fight this way with the few cavalry troops on hand.
Neither the black-bottomed Silver Tiger Flag nor the Shentu Jingqin were able to gain an advantage in our hands.
At present, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, the Red Flame Army, and the Bai Xuewei are in charge of Wu Pass. The 20,000 Right Cavalry of Bu Wenshan has entered Tianlang Pass and cooperated with the Tianlang Army. The Daliang Dragon Cavalry and the Xuanwu Army are resting in the Liangshan Camp. The main forces of our Beiliang are all."
In addition to the Liaodong garrison and the soldiers who were stable in Pinghan Road, Chen Yue also gave all the trump cards.
Zhuge Hutu said softly:
"It's a pity that the main forces of the Right Cavalry and the Left Cavalry have been reduced to 20,000, otherwise our troops will be richer."
In the past, the left and right cavalry were the absolute main force of the Liang army, occupying the majority of the cavalry.
The Right Cavalry lost some of its troops in the battle of splitting gold, and transferred some of them to other troops. The Left Cavalry also reduced a lot of troops this time, resulting in the two main forces now being only about 40,000 yuan in full battle.
Chen Yue rubbed the paper in his hand:
"To this point the war has reached its current level, it will be difficult for elite cavalry to replenish for a while, so they can only rely on veterans to fight first.
It is already great that the four lands captured by the Central Plains can add some of the city-guarding infantry to our borders."
There are only so many veterans and so many war horses. Frequent hard-working death battles have begun to make it difficult for the Liang army's soldiers to replenish them.
The Yan army was not much better. All the veterans who could fight came out, and they were gone after they were all killed.
Xue Tianru rubbed her sore eyes:
"Now I'm thinking about how to defeat Shen Tu Longfu.
Shen Tu Longfu plus Baili Shen, one is mature and the other is sharp, and there are two princes who are eager to compete for merit.
This combination is strong.”
"It's really hard to deal with." Zhuge Hutu walked slowly to the map:
"The Yan army's defenses were progressing layer by layer, and a large number of military camps were established outside the pass. As soon as our cavalry retreated into the city, the Yan army's siege army made a comeback and attacked Wuguan.
Although our defense is tight and the Yan army will not be able to attack for a while, if we continue to fight like this, the losses of the defending troops will be huge."
The Liang army's crossbowmen recently visited the Yan army's barracks, and the camps were placed in dangerous places, echoing each other, and it was difficult to launch a sneak attack.
Xue Tian frowned slightly and said:
"Although the Yan army is coming in a fierce manner, in the deep winter, the cannon fodder men recruited from various tribes of the grassland are really willing to die like this all the time?
One hundred deaths today, two hundred deaths tomorrow, a good grassland leader will become a bare pole as he fights.
If I were the leader who was loyal to Mu Yun Canglan, I would definitely feel dissatisfied."
The dissonance of people's hearts and too mixed forces have always been the drawback of the Yan army.
Chen Yue thought:
"Is there a possibility that the siege infantry in front of the Yan army, except for the elite of the Yan Rong clan, are already at the end of their strength?
The string that had been tensed for a long time would break with a light stroke."
"I agree with the prince's speculation."
Zhuge agreed humbly: "The Yan army is also a human being, and the leaders of the tribes in the grassland also have selfish intentions. If Shen Tu Longfu forced him too quickly, there might be problems within them.
Then, our opportunity will come~”
Chen Yue's mouth slightly raised:
"It makes sense~"
"Prince!"
Several people were talking about the battle situation on the front line, and Xu Luo walked in quickly and whispered beside Chen Yue:
"Prince, Iron Dragon and Iron General, outside the mansion."
"who?"
Chen Yue was stunned: "Iron Dragon?"
"Strange thing." Xue Tian said in surprise: "Why did he come to Wuguan all at once?"
Zhuge murmured:
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid the grassland will change~"
Chen Yue's eyes were slightly cold:
"Please come in!"
"promise!"
...
After a while, a burly middle-aged man entered the meeting hall of the General's Mansion. Xu Luo knew it and closed the door tightly and kept it firmly at the door.
Tielong was wearing clothes of the people of the Central Plains, with dusty black boots covered in dust.
This iron dragon and iron general from the Xihu clan had never been to the cold place several times, and every time he came, he would bring shocking news.
Chen Yue said in surprise: "What's the look of General Tie?"
"I'm sorry, after all, I have a special identity. I pretended to be a porter and entered the general's mansion. What if there is a spy from the Yan people in the city?" Tielong laughed:
"Be careful, it's absolutely right."
"The general is really careful in doing things."
Chen Yue nodded frequently: "Sit, sit quickly, the tea will be poured out, and the general will relieve the fatigue."
"The prince is really thirsty after saying this." Tielong picked up the tea bowl, drank it all, and smashed his mouth a few times. It was obvious that he was so thirsty.
Xue Tian was stunned and hurriedly added a cup of tea to him himself.
"Thank you, Xue Dupu."
A hint of embarrassing smile appeared on Tielong's face: "I'm a little rude."
Xue Tian laughed and said, "There are no so many red tapes in the military camp."
After drinking three cups of tea and eating several snacks, Tielong's complexion became more rosy. He probably exhausted the general Tie as he was rushing to death after a long journey.
Chen Yue spoke:
