Chapter 1,113: Driving the tiger and swallowing the wolf
After hearing this, the captain was silent.
It stands to reason that the original plan of the Guanlong Clan was to use the Turks to cut off the Youtun Guards, assassinate Fang Jun, and eliminate the first-class enemy in the court. Then they felt that it was not safe, so they secretly worked to attract
A group of Arab cavalry is becoming more and more safe, ensuring nothing goes wrong.
Because they could not bear the backlash that Fang Jun might suffer if his success failed and Fang Jun fled back to Chang'an.
In the eyes of the Guanlong clan, whether they are Turks or Arabs, it is best to die cleanly in order to cut off all clues and eliminate future troubles forever.
But while the Turks were attacking Youtunwei, they launched the Arabs to raid from behind and carry out indiscriminate attacks... With the army in chaos, the situation would inevitably become a mess and difficult to control. Aren't you worried about any accidents?
If Youtunwei is not annihilated according to the original plan, and Fang Jun is allowed to escape, the serious consequences will definitely be something that no one in the Longmen family is willing to face.
Others may need evidence, but Fang Jun's stick has always acted arbitrarily. As long as he believes that the Guanlong clan did it, he will definitely take extremely drastic measures to retaliate.
Your Majesty, the prince may turn a blind eye for the sake of the stability of the government, but how can Fang Jun swallow such a breath?
Therefore, this matter can only succeed and cannot fail. Every link must be carefully considered and handled with caution.
Wei Ying observed the words and expressions, and saw the captain's expression uncertain, so he quickly said: "When we were leaving, the Youtun Guards had already sent troops to station in Jiaohe City to block the four gates, so the general specifically told us to inform us when we came to summon us.
Everyone, it’s better not to delay things, otherwise things will change!”
The captain's expression changed drastically: "Fang Jun has sent people to blockade Jiaohe City?"
Wei Ying pointed to the sky and swore: "It's absolutely true. How dare we lie about such a big matter?"
The captain naturally understood that no one would dare to lie about this kind of thing, so he quickly turned around and chirped to the two generals sitting on their seats.
Then, seeing the two Hu generals nodding their heads, the captain said to Wei Ying: "The two generals have agreed to assemble their troops and head to Alagou immediately. You two should also accompany them."
Wei Ying shook his head and said: "Before leaving, the general told us that we need to return to Jiaohe City immediately after the summons. Otherwise, the general is trapped in the city and does not know the situation outside. It is easy to make inaccurate judgments, and it is even more difficult to make adjustments. Once a mistake occurs,
,The consequences could be disastrous."
The captain raised his eyebrows, stared at Wei Ying's face like a hawk, and said displeasedly: "I am in charge of this place, and I have the final say in what happens. Although you are holding General Hou Mochen's letter, you also have Hou Mochen.
You have the title of General, but your identity is somewhat suspicious. I can’t let you go until I see General Hou Mochen.”
Under the scorching gaze, Wei Ying's expression did not show any fluctuation, and he said calmly: "I am the personal soldier of General Hou Mochen. I am not an official or soldier. I will not be able to obey the orders of the captain. If the captain has any doubts about my identity,
If you have any doubts, you don't have to act according to the instructions in the letter. All consequences will be borne by the captain and have nothing to do with me. I have military orders with me and it is inconvenient to stay longer, so I will leave for now."
After saying that, he knelt down on one knee to perform the military salute, and then turned around and walked out without looking at the captain's face, which was as black as the bottom of a pot.
The companion naturally followed quickly.
After leaving the house, Wei Ying walked non-stop and strode towards the city gate without looking back. He pursed his lips and said to his companions: "Calm down, don't panic, he doesn't dare to attack us."
How about co]."
Throughout the Western Region, although the Guanlong Clan is all over the place, Chang Sun Ming and Hou Mo Chen Sui are the main ones. These two people are in the Anxi Protectorate, holding high positions and having great power, so they are naturally able to restrain the Guanlong Clan from spreading everywhere.
The power of Fang.
So how could a mere school captain dare to embarrass the soldiers around Hou Mo and Chen Sui?
No matter how doubtful he was in his heart, as long as Wei Ying didn't reveal his flaws, he could only watch Wei Ying walk away...
As expected, the two men opened the city gate and left the city, but no one dared to stop them.
The two of them left the city and walked all the way towards Jiaohe City. It was not until dusk that the sky became dark, and the heavy snow still continued to fall. Things were blurry and difficult to distinguish more than ten feet away. Then they found a leeward place to eat some dry food and drink.
After taking a few sips of strong wine and taking a short rest, he changed direction and turned south, heading quickly towards the direction of the Youtun Guard station.
*****
A few dozen miles north of Baishui Town, there is a valley that crosses the Bogda Mountains. Because it is narrow and winding, it is difficult to pass, so few people usually travel to the Western Regions and Mobei.
In a mountain col with leeward direction, three thousand Turks camped here.
In the camp, Ashina Helu was wearing a fox fur. The sharp knife in his hand cut off a piece of barbecue and stuffed it into his mouth to chew for a while. Then he picked up the wine glass with his greasy hands and took a big sip, and then looked at the person opposite.
Tumidu said: "This time we came south under the orders of the Khan King. We really suffered a big sin. When we were passing through the valley road, more than a hundred men accidentally fell into the deep stream. The horses prepared for us by the Tang Dynasty were not high-quality horses.
, I am afraid that we will face a fierce battle when we face Youtunwei. The Great Khan is a veteran on the battlefield, and he is extremely brave. When the time comes, he will have to take on the important task of attacking for this general. Youtunwei is not just any one.
There are only kittens and puppies, and if you underestimate the enemy, the consequences are unpredictable."
The reputation of Youtunwei has long been known in Mobei.
At that time, the soldiers came out of the White Road, marched all the way towards Longting, and were invincible in the wilderness for thousands of miles. They finally overthrew Xue Yantuo, achieving Fang Jun's eternal achievements of "conquering Shi Yanran" and "sealing the wolf to live in Xu". It shocked the Hu tribe in Mobei and trembled, and they were all subdued.
Under its overwhelming power.
Now in the battle of Hexi, tens of thousands of Tuyuhun cavalry had prepared for many years and broke into the Hexi invaders. However, in the great battle of pulling out the valley but right guard, they lost their helmets and armor, and their bodies were lying on their pillows!
These two battles were enough to make the army of Youtun Guard look down upon the world and deserve the honor of being the most powerful army in the world.
Although the Turks did not hesitate to suffer heavy losses, they crossed the Bogda Mountains and sneaked into the Gaochang and Shanshan areas in the wind and snow, just to give the Youtun Guards a thunderous blow. However, in the face of such unparalleled military power, the always arrogant and arrogant Ah
Shina Helu didn't dare to be careless.
The surprise attack on Youtunwei was not only to offer a generous price that could not be refused, but also to make the Turkic cavalry famous. Since the Eastern Turks were destroyed by the Tang army in the Battle of Dingxiang, Jieli Khan was captured to
Chang'an performed a dance in front of His Majesty Li Er. The Turks have been silent for many years. They hope that this battle can make the world remember the majesty of the Turkic Wolf Riders again, which will be more conducive to controlling the various ethnic groups in the Western Regions.
However, Ashina Helu was absolutely unwilling to encounter the tenacious blockade of Youtun Guards because of underestimating the enemy, thereby losing his troops and generals, and burying half of his reputation here.
Moreover, because the valley through the Bogda Mountains is extremely narrow and can only be walked on foot, thousands of Turkic warriors can only carry weapons and food. After arriving here, they only asked about the horses that the Longmen clan had prepared in advance. However, the Tang army was very careful about horse management.
Strictly, every high-quality war horse is not only marked, but also included in the roster. Deaths in battle, death from illness, and disappearances must be reported. No matter how powerful the Guanlong clan is, it is impossible for others to notice it.
Under the circumstances, thousands of high-quality war horses were obtained.
Therefore, we can only use the bad horses in the racecourse, or even the horses pulling the carts to make up the number...
Although Ashina Helu knew the difficulties of Guan Long clan, he was still dissatisfied. Turks are all born warriors. They grew up on horseback since childhood. They are skilled in bow and horse and are brave and powerful. But in the end, they also need good horses to perform.
Maximum combat power.
It is difficult for these bad horses to drive them to charge. If they are used against the right guard, wouldn't it mean that they lose a few points of victory out of thin air?
Naturally, I was under a lot of pressure, and I felt a little depressed and irritable, and I couldn't help but complain to Tumidu.
Tumidu took a sip of wine and said slowly: "General, you are worrying too much. The enemy is in the light and I am in the dark. Also, those people from the Long Gate Clan can keep the guards informed of the movements of the Youtun Guards at any time. It is like prey under the control of a goshawk."
If it falls, all it takes is a full blow, and it will be captured naturally. I am more concerned about when the heavy snow will stop. If it falls like this, I am afraid it will be another white disaster. How many livestock on the grassland will freeze to death, and the tribesmen will not be able to catch it.
Without livestock, there is no way to survive. If people all starve to death, why are we working so hard to survive?"
His words were filled with compassion and compassion.
He thought about the shocking news brought by the soldiers of the Tang army who came to contact him earlier, and felt that he could not let Ashina Helu keep thinking about Youtunwei, just in case a sudden flash of inspiration came to him and he realized the danger of the Turks' current situation.
Therefore, if you are on guard, isn't it a serious matter?
