Chapter 920 Su Dingfang invites a battle, one of the Iron Triangle
"How is General Yun Chang doing?"
As soon as he returned to the city, Yuwen Chengdu immediately found a medical officer to treat Guan Yunchang.
"General Yuwen, my eldest brother is not out of danger yet and is still being treated."
"Hey, I hope General Guan can get better soon!" Yuwen Chengdu sighed.
When he protected Guan Yu back to the city, he had already briefly checked Guan Yu's injuries.
Therefore, he knew very well the extent of Guan Yu's injuries. Even if he could be out of danger, it would take at least half a year, or even more than a year, to fully recover.
It can only be said that Guan Yu had the right idea to find a whetstone for his martial arts journey. This was also the fastest way to lay a solid foundation for him. However, the whetstone he found this time was harder.
However, facing Wang Xuanba, a warrior who was also super explosive and super powerful, Guan Yu had no advantage at all in all aspects.
However, it doesn't matter that Guan Yu fell, but he is the commander-in-chief of the city, and all subsequent battles are inseparable from his command.
Therefore, Yuwen Chengdu urgently hopes that Guan Yu can wake up as soon as possible. Even if he cannot mount his horse and fight, it doesn't matter, but at least he can stabilize the people in the city and direct the direction of the battle.
Before Guan Yu woke up, all the pressure was on him, and Yuwen Chengdu suddenly felt a lot of pressure.
"It's difficult to handle."
Yuwen Chengdu couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart. Guan Yu's serious injury prevented them from losing too much in combat power. After all, the opponent also injured Ji Meng. Ji Meng was not as serious as Guan Yu's injury, but he could not go up for several months.
The battlefield is also normal.
On their side, although there is only one god-general-level combat power left, the five of them, Lu Junyi, Guan Sheng, Lin Chong, Hu Yanzhuo, and Qin Ming, together have the combat power of the god-general level.
This is not Yuwen Chengdu's own casual speculation, but during the battle of Tianlang Pass, these five people had teamed up to fight against a god-level warrior from Beidi.
And in the final analysis, they also have a defensive advantage. It doesn't matter if they are missing a god-level combat power. They can always find a way to maintain the situation.
The real key is that there is currently a lack of someone who can truly stabilize the overall situation.
But no matter how difficult it was, Yuwen Chengdu had no choice but to bite the bullet.
However, it rained all night. Yingxiong, as a typical offensive general, may not be able to take into account the overall situation, but he is unique in his ability to seize opportunities.
Guan Yu's serious injury is an important opportunity for Ying Xiong.
If you don’t attack when there are problems with the opponent’s command system, then when should you attack?
Almost on the same day, Yingxiong had mobilized all his troops and resources and launched an all-out attack on Nancheng.
"Ying Hexi, you are cruel."
Yuwen Chengdu gritted his teeth, beat the city wall hard, and ordered: "The entire army is ready to defend the city."
From then on, the attack and defense of Nancheng began.
On the other side, while the offensive and defensive battle in Nancheng was starting, Su Dingfang had already led 10,000 black cavalry to launch the operation.
The Great Sword Dynasty was the largest among the four small dynasties that existed in the gap between Da Cang and the northern part of Da Wu. Even though it was not as powerful as the weaker Lan and Hao dynasties among the four small dynasties, it was the largest among them.
and, but not much worse.
This time, among the 150,000 troops dispatched by the four small dynasties, the Great Sword Dynasty alone accounted for a full one-third of the total.
Although the sword warriors of the Great Sword Dynasty were small in number, only a few thousand, they still had a certain reputation and could be called the strongest army of the four small dynasties.
This unit also performed very well during the Battle of Xirong.
Su Dingfang led 10,000 black cavalry and did not make any attempt to cover up. He even took the initiative to invite Liang Jingtian, the leader of the Great Sword Dynasty, to fight against Mo Shuihe.
To show his sincerity, Su Dingfang even retreated thirty miles to let the sword army cross the river for a decisive battle.
"Yuanqiu, Su Dingfang has 10,000 soldiers and horses. The Lord wants to fight!"
"Tell me, should we respond or not?" Liang Jingtian asked his son.
His son is not like him at all. He has no ability to restrain a chicken. However, fortunately, although he is not good at martial arts, he is able to succeed in literature.
"Yes, we must respond!" Liang Yuanqiu replied directly without thinking.
In the original historical trajectory, another pillar of the northern faction in the future new dynasty began to appear on the stage of history.
The iron triangle of the Northern Faction in the New Dynasty, Wang Yu, Liang Yuanqiu, and Sima Chou, with these three people as the center, united a northern faction and occupied a place in the New Dynasty.
It is said that they are an iron triangle, but in fact, the three people are just at odds with each other. However, for their own interests, they help each other in the new dynasty of Nuo Da, and a group of rural parties are united with the three people as the center.
Compete with other factions.
For these three people to become the leaders of a faction, apart from their own abilities, it is also their network of relationships.
The New Dynasty's Battle to the North could be resolved cleanly and neatly, largely because the Emperor Ling at that time adopted the Northern Faction to fight the battle, allowing these three people to play their role in the Apocalypse North, so that
The battle had just begun, but already a large number of people had surrendered.
Among the three, the youngest one was Liang Yuanqiu. But even so, not only did he come from a family of the number one military generals of the Sword Dynasty, but his mother also came from the royal family of the Sword Dynasty.
It was precisely because the foundations of these three people were strong enough that they were able to unite a large number of civil and military officials born in the North and form the Northern Faction in the court.
Among the three, Wang Yu was the first to join Di Zhiling's command. He fought in the north and south, and gained great influence in the military. As for the remaining two, Liang Yuanqiu had the style of a national scholar, a natural strategist, and a natural talent.
As a counselor, Sima Chou is a poisonous person who can do anything.
Although the leader of the Northern Faction was nominally the first Wang Yu to join the Emperor's command, the formation of this faction was really due to Sima Chou's contribution. After this faction was established, the competition between it and other factions
To coexist with others, it is Liang Yuanqiu who relies on it.
"Dad, don't forget that together we have more than 200,000 troops, while the enemy only has 60,000 troops. However, don't forget that there is Wang Zhendong on the Yang Road of Da Cang Mountain.
150,000 troops and 10,000 black cavalry."
"Moreover, of the 150,000 soldiers and horses on Shanyang Road, a full 100,000 were born at the headquarters of the Zhendong Army. Dad, the soldiers and horses on Shanyang Road are definitely better in combat power than Su Dingfang's soldiers.
The horse is even better!"
"I'm afraid it won't take long for Wang Zhendong to completely capture Shanyang Road. By that time, the offensive and defensive momentum between the enemy and ourselves will be completely reversed!" Liang Yuanqiu explained.
