Turkic Yegua Ashina Yiwuzhen led his troops and the Qizi tribe, and a total of more than 26,000 cavalry arrived in the north of Lingzhou City. Before Ashina Yiwuzhen led his troops to attack, he found shocking cheers coming from Lingzhou City.

Since ancient times, China has never lacked scum who surrendered to the alien Hu. Although Ashina Yiwuzhenmo does not understand Chinese, there are people around him who are proficient in Chinese. Through the translation of the tongue man, Ashina Yiwuzhenmo finally knew the origin of the cheers in Lingzhou City.

"It turns out that the Tang army reinforcements have entered the city!"

Asan Yiwuzhen didn't look at Lingzhou, and could only sigh to the sky. He did not attack. He knew that at this time, the Tang army was so motivated that the attack would only give the Tang army heads, which was of no use to the battle situation.

"After exiting for 500 steps, dismount and rest!"

In ordinary times, the cavalry rode a hundred miles and was almost as easy as drinking water and eating. However, in such cold weather, the snow was very thick, and the war horses were not only unable to walk fast, but also easily slipped. Arriving from Huaiyuan to Lingzhou, even Ashina Yiwuzhenmo's troops were exhausted.

The combat effectiveness is also greatly reduced.

Lingzhou general manager Guo Zihe got a large number of Turkic troops attacked, and he was so worried that he had torn his beard off. If it weren't for the people of the whole city, he would have wanted to find a rope to hang himself.

Just as the Turks were getting closer and closer, a sudden uproar came from the south of the city. Guo Zihe thought that a mutiny had occurred in the city, so he hurried to the south city. A high flag spread out in the wind, and the big embroidered brocade characters made people see clearly: "General Zhongwu, the right guard of the Eastern Palace, and the marching chief Chen!"

The dozens of riders were surrounded by a black armored and red-helmet general. Who would it be if it weren't Chen Ying?

"Chief Yang, our savior is here. The Right Guard leads General Chen to save us!" Guo Zihe was so excited that she burst into tears, and her voice changed.

Chen Ying's horsemanship was not very good, but Yu Guni forced himself to pick out a mare that was very easy to understand from Bogulu City, and steadily carried Chen Ying into Lingzhou City.

Chen Ying watched Guo Zihe rush towards him, but he did not show off in front of Guo Zihe, and hurriedly turned over and dismounted.

"Mr. Guo, thank you for your hard work!"

"I dare not say that I have to eat the king's fortune and loyalty to the king!" Guo Zihe looked behind Chen Ying, and saw that Chen Ying had only brought two thousand troops over, and said in confusion: "There are reinforcements behind?"

Chen Ying shook his head and said, "This time Chen led the Right Guard to lead the 16th Regiment of the Four Deputies to build soldiers, and left the two regiments of Bogulu City. At this time, only twelve regiments and more than 3,400 people arrived."

If Chen Ying had not brought two regiments under Duan Zhigan when he passed by Hongshan Fort, Chen Ying would have probably not even been able to come up with two thousand people. However, the Tang army guarding Bogulu City was extremely dangerous. If there were more than 7,000 Turkic surrendered troops and more than 6,000 herdsmen in the city, once the Turks repeated, the Tang army could not suppress them at all.

"Twelve groups?" Guo Zihe looked disappointed.

The Lingzhou General Administration has four Zhechong Prefectures, but it is the lower Prefecture, with only more than 3,200 people in the 16th Regiment of the Four Prefectures. In addition, the Min Zhuang, who fought in Lingzhou City one after another, had nearly 10,000 people, but these only 10,000 people almost could not defend Lingzhou City. How long could Chen Ying have only 2,000 or 3,000 people?

Suddenly, Guo Zihe squirted out a mouthful of blood, splashing Chen Ying all over.

Chen Ying was shocked, and then he realized that Guo Zihe's chest was in serious injuries, and his white bones were exposed. Chen Ying quickly turned his head and said, "Chen Huairen, come and save people!"

Chen Huairen hurriedly took off Guo Zihe's armor. Guo Zihe struggled and said intermittently: "Mr. Chen... Ling... Lingzhou will ask you..."

Before he finished speaking, Guo Zihe was already unconscious.

In fact, Guo Zihe has been gritting his teeth and persevering all these days, but when he saw Chen Ying coming, he relaxed the breath he was holding in his heart and could no longer hold on.

Chen Ying looked at Guo Zihe who was carried away and looked at Yang Ze and said, "I am the general manager taking over the defense of Lingzhou City. Does Chief Yang have any objections?"

The chief of Lingzhou Yang Ze said respectfully: "General Chen, the whole country of Lingzhou, cooperate with the general manager to defend the city. If any orders are given by General Chen, Yang Ze also obeys the order."

"Chief Yang is polite!" Chen Ying breathed a sigh of relief. If Yang Ze did not let go, he would be hard. He would not let the right guard lead the risk of annihilation of the entire army.

If he went out to many families, there was a taboo in military strategists. The host and guest troops could live in harmony, so he had confidence in defending the city. Chen Ying thought for a while and said, "Yang Changshi, how much surplus grain is there in the city now? How many people are there in the city? How many days can they afford it?"

He knew that Lingzhou was trapped for nearly three months and there were many refugees pouring into the city. When he came to the city, he saw that the defenders and the people had good looks on their faces, so he was worried that there was insufficient food in the city.

Yang Ze said: "There is no shortage of food in the city. There are more than 70,000 stones of grain in the official warehouse alone. The wealthy and wealthy families all have food to store, but..."

"Just what?"

"But this firewood is seriously insufficient!" Yang Ze sighed helplessly and said, "Originally there was still a lot of fuel in the city, but the Turks surrounded the city and we couldn't go out at all. In order to make a fire and keep warm, we almost exhausted the fuel in the city!"

"When I came, I brought more than a thousand sleds!" Chen Ying waved his hand and said, "If there is no firewood, I will remove the sled as firewood!"

"What" When he heard this, the right guards led their generals with different expressions.

Even Yang Ze said with great regret: "Such a magical object may be expensive!"

Chen Ying said: "Shunting State is more important than anything else!"

Chen Ying naturally knew the value of sledge, but no matter how expensive the snow sledge is, no matter how expensive it is, no matter how precious it is, people cannot hold on in such cold weather conditions if they do not set up a fire to keep warm.

Fortunately, Chen Ying rushed into Lingzhou before Yi Wuzhen Mo led his army to Lingzhou. Seeing Chen Ying leading his troops to Lingzhou City, Lingzhou General Manager Guo Zihe was injured and threw the mess of Lingzhou to Chen Ying.

The situation was extremely bad at this time. Except for the advantage of geographical advantages, everything else was very bad. The city was not big in front of Lingzhou City, with only more than 1,600 steps in the city wall. Even if the millions of Turkic troops were in danger of unfolding outside Lingzhou City.

However, what worries Chen Ying was that the number of military and civilian wounded in Lingzhou City was as high as 5,000, and now the whole city cannot even draw out a thousand young people. Fortunately, the weather was cold at this time, otherwise, in an era without antibiotics, more than half of the number of minor and serious wounded people would probably die of inflammation.

Chen Huairen led a newly recruited medical team to treat the wounded. What surprised Chen Ying was that Lingzhou City desperately resisted the Turkish attack. There were many wounded people, but there were not many serious injuries. Most of the injuries were caused by the Turkish bows and arrows.

This kind of puncture injury looks bloody and is very scary, but it is actually not difficult to treat. With the existing medical conditions, most people can save their lives.

Chen Ying held his sword and climbed the gate tower of the West City of Lingzhou. Judging from his harsh eyes, the city walls and gate tower of Lingzhou City were not particularly strong in defense. If the Turks were good at siegeing the city, they would bear up to thousands of casualties without considering casualties, which would be enough to take down Lingzhou City.

However, it is more than enough to deal with Turkic cavalry with weaker siege capabilities. Perhaps the Turkic people will come to attack the city with Liang Shidu, Chen Ying thought to himself.

What made Chen Ying most pleased was that the weather was getting colder and colder, especially when the north wind blew, the temperature dropped sharply. Even if Chen Ying was wearing a down jacket, he still couldn't feel much warmth.
