Chapter 74 Gu Xuanzhen fights the Yang family general again
Yang Yanzhao's 10,000-strong army left colorlessly in the dark of night. He had infantrymen under his command. If they had to travel on two legs, it would take half a month at the fastest before they could reach the Xuanma Ancient Road.
!
However, with the troop carrier there, it took less than two days to reach the Xuanma Ancient Trail.
Yang Yanzhao lived up to Guan Zhong's expectations and found the most suitable terrain to preserve his strength in the fastest time. With 10,000 people, and 10,000 people who did not have an advantage in all aspects, he fought in the plain tunnel against the 30,000 people who might arrive from the opponent.
It lasted for more than a month in my hand.
On the one hand, this requires these ten thousand soldiers to fight with their lives!
On the other hand, you must fight in a rhythm during the fight. If the rhythm of the fight is too high, you will not be able to sustain it for more than a month.
Setting up camp, resisting horses, using various traps, tripping ropes, and horse nails, Yang Yanzhao did not waste any time and tried his best to prepare for the battle.
Because he didn't have much time to prepare. After the news that he was stationed on the Xuanma Ancient Road reached Huangfu Wugui, it was time for Huangfu Wugui to send troops to compete with him for this important place.
Xuanma Ancient Road, this location can directly threaten Ningping and Ningyang counties.
There is a large river danger between Henan Road and Hebei Road, and this river risk is not just unilaterally Henan Road has an advantage over Hebei Road. Hebei Road also has this advantage over Henan Road.
If the Huangfu Mingzhao court loses the bridgehead of Ningping and Ningyang counties, then they will not be able to threaten Hebei Province. And the strategy planned by Chu Xizhao to first remove the wings and then remove the main body will be very difficult.
It might just collapse in half.
Therefore, once Huangfu Wugui knew that Yang Yanzhao was stationing troops on the Xuanma Ancient Road, he would definitely follow and bite this place.
Two days after Yang Yanzhao arrived at the Xuanma Ancient Road, Zhuge Liang had already transported a large number of javelins, a thousand shields, a thousand iron armors, a thousand hard bows, eight hundred powerful crossbows, and even twenty bed crossbows and five
Ten armor-breaking crossbows.
In addition, even the war horses pulled 500 horses.
Among them, except for a few parts that are the remnants of the original Liaoyang treasury, most of them were obtained by Zhuge Liang from "purchases" from the Beiming family.
To be honest, although the four major imperial merchants also engaged in arms business, they basically exported it to external forces. For example, those anti-kings in Da Gan were a good customer of theirs.
These arms business must be almost no longer carried out in Da Cang. These imperial merchants just want to make money, but they don't need to seek the great pleasure of Da Cang court. This kind of business is not worth it!
And if arms are exported to forces such as Daqian who rebelled against the king, not only would they themselves be able to make a profit, but the Da Cang court would not have any objections to them, so why wouldn't they do it? Even, some
At that time, the imperial power might have to secretly promote this kind of thing.
It is precisely because the imperial merchants themselves have arms business output that they can easily get what Zhuge Liang wants in such a short period of time!
This time, the Beiming Family did a very happy business, and it could almost be said that it was a half-buy, half-free deal. As a result, the land of the nine counties of Hebei Province is now in the hands of Wang Yu, and they will have to suffer to some extent.
scruples.
On the other hand, Zhenxi and Zhenbei rebelled one after another, making the Huangfu Mingzhao court increasingly uncertain about the future. The Beiming Family must make corresponding adjustments to their attitude towards all parties.
Fortunately, the Beiming Family did business very well this time, which can be regarded as a big favor to Yang Yanzhao. Just one day after Zhuge Liang's batch of supplies arrived, the soldiers and horses of Huangfu Mingzhao's court had also arrived at Xuanzhao.
Horse road.
Guan Zhong and Zhuge Liang were not only top politicians and counselors, but also outstanding military strategists. Their predictions about the enemy were almost inseparable. They concluded that Huangfu Wugui could probably send 30,000 horses to fight for the enemy.
Ma Gudao, and the final result is indeed this number.
Although the leader is not a top figure in Huangfu Mingzhao's court, that is, he is only a fourth-grade military general, he has quite a lot of qualifications. He is also quite stable in fighting. Although he has not made any great achievements, he has not done anything.
What a big deal.
Apart from this, the only thing that was somewhat unexpected was that Gu Xuanzhen, the former number one warrior in Hebei Province, was actually among this group of soldiers.
Originally, it was not Gu Xuanzhen's turn to take action this time, but when Gu Xuanzhen heard that his opponent this time was Yang Family General Qilang Bahu, he took the initiative to ask Huangfu Wugui to let him fight.
Gu Xuanzhen and the Seven Langs and Eight Tigers of the Yang family are also old rivals. Gu Xuanzhen has always been resentful that he failed to defeat the opponent three times. In the past two years, his strength has increased.
A breakthrough progress.
Therefore, after having the opportunity to fight the Yang Family General's Qi Lang and Eight Tigers again, he was not willing to give up this opportunity, but hoped to go and end it once.
The strong generals under Wang Yu are not in Hebei Province now, but have joined the coalition forces. Gu Xuanzhen is not indispensable here in Huangfu Wugui.
Therefore, Huangfu Wugui gave Gu Xuanzhen face and agreed to his request in order to end the battle on the Xuanma Ancient Road with an overwhelming advantage. Moreover, since Gu Xuanzhen made a breakthrough in the past two years,
His status has risen sharply, and he is worthy of Huangfu Wugui giving him such a favor.
"Yang family rats, how dare you come out to fight with grandpa!" Gu Xuanzhen shouted wildly.
It can be seen that Gu Xuanzhen was really worried about the Yang family's Qi Lang and Eight Tigers, and he couldn't wait to come here to challenge them.
At the same time, Gu Xuanzhen personally found more than 20 soldiers with loud voices and began to "greet" the Yang family generals in various ways.
"This bastard, Sixth Brother, I'm going to teach him a lesson!" Yang Yansi said with his teeth about to crack.
When Yang Yansi was still young and vigorous, he really couldn't stand the stimulation. After Gu Xuanzhen's various "greetings" came over, the anger in his heart had already surged up, and he had the urge to go out and fight with the opponent.
Fortunately, whether it is Yang Yanzhao as the leader, or Yang Yanping, the eldest among the brothers, their characters are much calmer. Gu Xuanzhen's method can stimulate the young and energetic Yang Yansi, but it has no effect on them
It's very limited.
As soon as Yang Yansi made a move, Yang Yanzhao and Yang Yanping jointly stopped him, and asked Yang Yanlang to keep a close eye on Yang Yansi to prevent him from doing anything impulsive.
