(That’s it for today, brothers. I really have something to do, and I won’t stop updating it if nothing happens. All the things are squeezed together.)
At the beginning of July, the decisive battle surrounding a three-hundred-mile radius of Dujin Mountain officially began.
Lai Huer couldn't help but intervene, not to mention that his original intention was to have a big fight, and he didn't want to be left too far behind by Yu Wenshu.
In the conquest of Goguryeo, Yu Wenshu was the first, and he was the second. He was already lower than others, but as a result, another defense battle in Guanzhong came and he was banned from Sikong. The status of the two was already widened.
Lai Hu'er is definitely not convinced, and Yang Guang also hinted to the other party in private, which probably means that you are no worse than Yu Wenshu, but you just don't have a chance. You are my person, and I am more optimistic about you.
To put it bluntly, it was deception. Yu Wenshu was the emperor's confidant, and he who came to protect him was also a confidant.
But he has a miscellaneous army under his command, and the combat effectiveness is not very good, so what should we do? At the expense of human lives, a full 30,000-strong supervising team is in the rear, forcing the forward army to continuously attack the Turks. They are located to the east of Dujin Mountain and to the west of Langjuxu Mountain.
The Guyan Mountain Defense Line.
The leader of the Turkic army here is Laosi Chi Jishe. There are three major Turkic official positions: Yehu, She, and Teller. She is equivalent to a senior military commander.
Dujin Mountain was called Yanran Mountain in the Han Dynasty and Hangai Mountain in later generations. To the east of it are Guyan Mountain and Langjuxu, which is where Huo Qubing went.
As for where the vast sea in the vast sea of drinking horses is, there are many opinions. There are two mainstream theories, one is Lake Baikal and the other is Mount Hangai.
Why is it said that Feng Langjuxu was regarded as the highest honor by ancient famous generals? Because this is the home of the northern nomads. The current home of the Turks is in Dujin Mountain, and the home of the Xiongnu in the Han Dynasty is in Guyan Mountain.
The battle surrounding the Guyan Mountain area was extremely brutal. They were almost piled up with corpses. Only half of the Xiaoguo Army was equipped with refined weapons, and more than half of the half were special supervisors.
In other words, the cannon fodder in the front are all ordinary armors, not many are iron armors, and many are leather armors.
Wouldn't this cost you your life?
Lai Hu'er sat in charge of the central army and was not panicked at all, because he could see that the Turks were also gritting their teeth and fighting hard.
"We have been fighting for a day, and the Turkic formation has become chaotic. Tonight is a good opportunity to break the formation. The last general will ask to fight as the vanguard," General Fei Qingnu said.
Lai Hu'er raised his hand and said, "Don't worry. It's still not safe enough to attack the defense line tonight. When the main force of Yuwenshu's Chinese army wins a big victory, the group of people opposite us will definitely be panicked. That's when the decisive battle will come."
Xiao Xuan, who had never been to the front line at all, flattered him and said, "Thank you, Lord Rong."
Lai Huer snorted coldly and ignored him at all. People who came from the military respected the most those who came from the same military, even their opponents, but this definitely did not include those who had never been on the battlefield.
In fact, heroes cherish heroes. It is very obvious that Xiao Xuan is not a hero. Not to mention that he has no face in Lai Huer, even his dead ghost father Xiao Cong, Lai Huer does not take him seriously.
Xiao Xuan, who was disappointed, didn't care at all. First of all, he was indeed not qualified enough. Secondly, he was a deep man.
"The fighting is also starting on Mr. Xu's side, and the army is advancing step by step, in an orderly manner. Can we slow down for a while," Xiao Xuan said.
He is from the south, and the main sponsor of the Xiaoguo Army is the Xiao family. When he comes to protect his son, he is worried that he will not be able to explain it to him if he returns to the south in the future.
These are all my Jiangdong elders.
Lai Hu'er himself is from Jiangdu, and he doesn't want his fellow villagers to go and die, but these fellow villagers are too disobedient and difficult to control, so he can only drain them of their value and send them on their way.
Faced with Xiao Xuan's suggestion, Lai Hu'er ignored it, but Fei Qingnu sneered and said: "I tell you, Grand Master Xiao, how to march and fight, Duke Rong doesn't need you to teach him, right?"
Xiao Xuan is the Duke of Liang, but Fei Qingnu deliberately called him the prefect, just to let Xiao Xuan clearly understand his position. This is the army, and you are nothing in front of the chief executive.
Xiao Xuan curled his lips: "The advice Duke Xu gave us is to support us. Now we have been fighting for a day, and more than 10,000 people have been killed. If we continue to fight like this and destroy this Xiaoguo army, I am afraid that His Majesty will be dissatisfied. I am also doing it for Duke Rong's benefit."
.”
It means that if the loss is too big, Yang Guang will cause trouble for the guardian.
Will it? No, as long as the strategic goal is achieved, it will be a win. Winning only has merit, not demerit.
The battlefield is not only about victory or defeat, but also about advantages and disadvantages. If Laihuer drags the main force of Guyan Mountain with him, Yuwenshu will definitely be much more relaxed. If he is relaxed, he will attack Dujin Mountain as soon as possible.
Finish playing early and go home early.
"Get out!" Lai Hu'er said lightly, and Xiao Xuan walked away in despair.
Even though they are both Dukes, there are differences in rank. There were so many princes in the Sui Dynasty, but a few of them could compare with Yang Rui.
The main force of the left and right Yi guards led by Yu Wenshu, including one hundred thousand elite cavalry out of the two hundred thousand men, were like chopping melons and vegetables. They were completely overwhelming, breaking through one line of defense after another, and fought with Lai Hu'er.
I can't move for a day, which is a sharp contrast.
The cavalry, which the Turks were proud of, was still vulnerable despite occupying a favorable location.
We are getting closer to Dujin Mountain, and the main force of Chuluo Khan is twenty miles ahead.
Soldiers all over the mountains and fields have almost covered the grassland. The armies of both sides are highly concentrated, and a head-to-head decisive battle is about to begin.
Yuwenshu was full of confidence: "The refined weapons made by the prince are truly divine aids, and the Turkic cavalry are vulnerable to a single blow."
If the refined weapons were made by a great craftsman, no one in the entire court would mention him again, because mentioning him would be equivalent to robbing the soldiers at the front of their work.
Everyone will only say that my soldiers are mighty and my weapons are sharp, but they will not say why they are sharp.
Therefore, the status of R&D personnel was not high in ancient times. Fortunately, Yang Ming was the prince.
Yang Yue has been very nervous these past few days. He is waiting for Du Bi (Jie Li) to sneak attack on Yang Guang. Only by killing Yang Guang can Yang Ming take over.
In his opinion, Yang Ming would be a very good emperor, but Yang Guang was not.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The aristocratic families do not want the world to be in chaos, because if the world is in chaos, their interests will be lost even more. The rebellion of the common people is a class struggle. Will the emperor be killed?
I don't know if it goes down, but they will definitely be seriously injured.
What Yang Yue does is called a power struggle. If Yang Ming goes up, their family's interests will be greater and they will gain more power.
Just as Mingyue, the author of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" said back then: The struggle of viewpoints is false, the struggle of direction is also false, only the struggle of power is real.
At Yang Guang's camp, after receiving the report from Yang Yue's people, it was true. He was not afraid of a sneak attack at all.
Because this is a palace of left and right preparations, people who are essentially brave and resolute.
In other dynasties, the Imperial Guards may not be able to fight, but not in the Sui Dynasty, because the Imperial Guards in the Sui Dynasty were always selected from the most capable military corps.
To use an inappropriate analogy, if the guards are college students, then the people guarding the body and mind are Tsinghua University.
Yang Jian and Jing Yuanheng commanded the left and right Preparations respectively, and set up formations, expecting the Turks to attack by surprise. Yang Jian was in charge of the east and south, and Jing Yuanheng was in charge of the northwest.
This is when the army sets up camp and forms its formation.
Yang Yue knew it well, that's why Du Bi (Jie Li) was the one who came to attack, because Du Bi was in the east.
"The Turks are indeed here. Yang Gong expected it correctly, but they really dare to attack His Majesty's camp?" After receiving the military information, Pei Yun hurriedly entered the account to deliver the news.
Yang Guang grinned: "If you are not afraid that he will come, you are afraid that he will not come. Send an order to King Qi to take the initiative to attack him."
Dong Chun, who has always been conservative, was stunned and said quickly: "My camp is strong and traps are set up around it. It is more appropriate to reject the camp and defend it."
Mai Tiezhang also said: "It would be best for us to attack again after they charge the stronghold to no avail and lose their energy."
Yang Guang snorted coldly: "Is there any reason for my imperial army to shrink? We are all warriors who are worth ten warriors, and they are just barbarians. I ordered the King of Qi to attack immediately and destroy the thieves."
Zhang Dinghe and Pei Renji looked at each other and shook their heads secretly.
Guo Rong and Yin Shishi tried their best to persuade him, but to no avail.
If you don’t use the ready-made camp and insist on actively seeking a decisive battle, what are you doing? Then why did you bother to build the camp in the first place?
Yang Guang's camp is twenty miles apart from east to west. It is not easy for Jing Yuanheng to help because there are enemy troops in the east. He needs to be more alert and beware of enemy troops from the west and north. So he can hardly mobilize many troops.
Manpower helps.
As for Yang Jian, he was a stickman. He had never led an army before, and he was eager to make achievements. After receiving the order, he directly led 20,000 elite cavalry out of the stronghold to meet the enemy.
But he didn't know that Du Bi had a total of 150,000 cavalry under his command. He knew better than anyone that as long as the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty was killed, or the emperor's imperial army was defeated, the entire Sui army would be withdrawn, and this war would be over.
It's over.
To capture the thief, capture the king first. The Turks also understand the whole principle.
Zhao Deyan didn't know what Du Bi wanted to do until now, but he had no chance to inform Yu Wenshu.
Since there is no way to save the day, let each one be loyal to his master.
"Looking at the flag, it should be the main force of Zuobei Shenfu of the Sui Dynasty. This is a very difficult nut to crack. The king flag with the word "Qi" should be Yang Jian. Unlike his third brother, this son has no experience in commanding troops.
," Zhao Deyan explained.
Du Bi already knew that I beat Yang Jian, but he would not tell Zhao Deyan how he knew.
"Then according to what the military advisor said, how should we defeat the elite troops in Li Zhai?" Du Bi asked.
Zhao Deyan said: "No matter the cost, use all your strength to annihilate them. If this army collapses, it will definitely affect the morale of the army. Our army can attack the camp at once. If Yang Guang is in danger, Yu Wenshu will lead his troops to rescue him. The danger of the royal court will be solved by itself."
The Khan can follow him."
"I want to kill Yang Guang," Du Bi said coldly, "to avenge the murder of my brother."
"Those who cannot be killed, the best result is to drive them south. The Sui Dynasty is currently suffering from internal and external troubles. If they withdraw, they will not be able to fight again in a few years. Our Turks will have a period of recuperation, and then we can plan for big things," Zhao Deyan said.
Du Bi shook his head: "This is the difference between us Turks and you Han people. You always talk about the feelings of flesh and blood, but don't care about it in your heart. But we are different. In the words of you Han people, it is called disagreement.
Dai Tian, righteousness will definitely be repaid."
Zhao Deyan didn't have much left. He knew very well that Du Bi was much more powerful than his eldest brother Shibi.
The troops were divided into three groups and surrounded Yang Jian on three sides. Du Bi was determined to devour the elite troops from the stronghold.
As Zhao Deyan said, morale is too important. The Turks now need a big victory to boost their morale.
Du Bi personally went into battle to supervise the battle, and the cavalry all over the mountains and plains made strange whining sounds and headed toward Yang Jian's troops overwhelmingly.
Seeing this posture, Yang Jian suddenly panicked.
The most taboo thing for a general is hesitation. He actually knows that there is no way to fight and should withdraw, but he is unwilling to do so. He withdraws as soon as he leads his army out. Doesn't it seem that I am too incompetent?
He has always been subordinate to the third child. If he returns to the camp in despair, he may never be able to raise his head again, not to mention this is the will of his father.
"King Qi, come back quickly. The thieves are too powerful to engage in battle," Li Chen, the general of the Zuo Imperial Guard, said anxiously.
Yang Jian sat on the horse, still hesitating.
"Your Highness, we can't fight. We should return to the camp as soon as possible before it's too late," General Hu Ben Lang said to Luo Yi.
Yang Xian remained silent, his hands holding the reins trembling slightly.
"Your Highness!" Luo Yi shouted fiercely.
Yang Xian gritted his teeth and said, "Withdraw!"
It was already difficult to retreat at such a close distance. The front army was already prepared to meet the enemy, but the general ordered the withdrawal, and the entire army formation was immediately in chaos.
In fact, 20,000 elites can definitely be beaten. If it were Li Jing and Su Lie, they would start fighting directly. What are you afraid of? It's not like there are no reinforcements behind you.
You dare not give an order even if you want to fight, and you hesitate even if you don't fight. Luo Yi and the others just see that the Turkic attack has already begun, and their side is full of cavalry. They have not formed an attack, and are already at a disadvantage, so they must retreat.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! As a result, Yang Jian hesitated, and the several forward corps were sold directly.
It takes no effort for a person to turn around, but it takes a lot of effort for a horse to turn around.
As the sound of fighting rang out, the cavalry in the rear were directly attacked and fell into pieces...
Inside the camp, gongs sounded loudly, which was a signal that the camp was breached.
Pei Yun and others were immediately frightened, and hurriedly helped Yang Guang mount his horse, then escorted the emperor and fled to the defense area where Jing Yuanheng was located. There was chaos in the camp.
Yang Guang ten years ago would not have been so cowardly, but now he is no longer able to do so. He is old, not to mention still the emperor. He cannot make any mistakes. Even if he refuses to leave, the generals below will take him away by force.
.
Again, whoever runs away will suffer. Yang Jian's chaos affected the entire battle. Duo Bi was eager for revenge. An army of 150,000 rushed to the camp with all his strength. As the elite ace army of the Sui Dynasty, he actually came to protect his son.
The Xiaoguo Army is still cowardly.
It's such a shame and it's going to be a big problem for the whole family.
After Jing Yuanheng received the news, he personally led an elite force of 10,000 people to greet the emperor.
"Your Majesty, go north quickly and join forces with Princess Xu," Jing Yuanheng said hurriedly after seeing Yang Guang.
Pei Yun was in a hurry: "The enemy army is huge, there are too many soldiers and horses, and the battle ahead is unclear. Your Majesty cannot be put in danger. You should go south."
When the emperor fled, we should not say fleeing to the south. It should be said to be marching south. The word "escape" cannot be used.
Jing Yuanheng was dumbfounded: "How can a clever and charming thief dare to harm my Majesty? The south is all for logistics. If your Majesty advances, the enemy will chase him. Only by going north to join the main force..."
"Stop talking, I want to go south, and I will quickly order Yuwenshu to go south to rescue him." Yang Guang held his grandson Yang Jin in his arms. After saying these words, he walked directly to the south of the camp, and the escort army hurriedly followed.
Jing Yuanheng looked at the emperor's team fleeing south and sighed: "The defeat is certain!"
