In the next two days, the entire Pujin Pass was extremely busy opening glue.
On the day the little bandit Mai Tiezhang set out, a large number of various materials were transported into Pujin Pass from all over Puzhou.
As expected of a bandit, Mai Tiezhang did an excellent job in robbery. The Sanfu Left Guards under his command were only responsible for robbing, and even the task of transporting supplies was left to the person being robbed! Mai Tiezhang was just
A small number of supervisors were dispatched to each team to escort them.
Thanks to Mai Tiezhang's hard work, in the next two days, all kinds of materials poured into Pujin Pass, until Pujin Pass was completely piled up.
Overjoyed and helpless, Yuwen Chenglong could only separate the left guard army of the first government, and guarded more than 20,000 captive soldiers. He built a huge warehouse and barracks on the south bank of the Yellow River Bridge, and piled most of the supplies beyond the Yellow River.
Go to the warehouse in the south.
What I want to say here is that these more than 30,000 prisoners have been basically collected by Yuwen Chenglong.
After all, they were part of the Sui army, and they held the orthodox righteousness. After Yuwen Chenglong launched a vigorous campaign to investigate and report Yang Liang's die-hard elements, the collection of prisoners of war went smoothly.
In two days, with the concerted efforts of Yuwen Chenglong's generals, a total of more than 26,000 intact prisoners were organized into an army.
In addition, there are more than 10,000 wounded soldiers who have been completely transformed by Yuwen Chenglong into his own people. Among them, more than 6,000 lightly wounded soldiers have initially acquired combat effectiveness, but they have not been organized into an army for the time being, but are listed separately in the wounded soldiers camp. As for
The only purpose of the remaining more than 7,000 severely wounded prisoners was to hand them over to the imperial court for credit.
Two days later, 24,000 infantrymen from the rear army rushed to Pujin Pass escorting grain, grass and baggage.
At this point, all 50,000 troops under Yuwen Chenglong's command arrived at Pujing Pass.
After the 14,000 men arrived, Yuwen Chenglong immediately mixed these men and horses with more than 32,000 surrendered soldiers! He also selected 20,000 sergeants with good riding skills and converted them into cavalry.
After some reorganization, Yuwen Chenglong already had 56,000 cavalry and 26,000 infantry under his command.
However, the real elite is still only the 36,000 cavalry of the Left Guard.
On the third day, Mai Tiezhang's robbery was almost finished. Although there were still a few places to rob, Yuwen Chenglong had to let Mai Tiezhang suspend his robbery.
Firstly, the warehouses at Pujin Pass and the south bank of the pass were basically filled with supplies; secondly, Yang Liang’s rebels finally appeared again!
The first rebel army to arrive was still from Bingzhou, a force that set out from Yanmen. It was led by Qiao Zhongkui, one of Yang Liang's generals.
It belongs to the border army. Compared with Yu Zhengzhi's army, Qiao Zhongkui's army is much more elite and has slightly more soldiers and horses. It has 10,000 cavalry and 50,000 infantry, with a total strength of 60,000.
Moreover, this Qiao Zhongkui is a true veteran of all battles, with extremely rich battlefield experience.
Qiao Zhongkui was very cautious. Although he had not received news of Yu Zongzheng's defeat yet, because he could not contact Yu Zongzheng's headquarters, Qiao Zhongkui had already become suspicious. He marched fifty miles outside Pujin Pass. Qiao Zhongkui set up camp early and
Sent out scouts to look for news.
It's a pity that Qiao Zhongkui's opponent is Yuwen Jackie Chan.
Eight waves of scouts totaling more than 2,000 were sent out in succession, but no one could bring back any news!
To be exact, none of the scouts returned to the camp alive, not even a corpse!
It turned out that as early as when he began to collect prisoners, Yuwen Chenglong ordered Shen Guang to select more than a thousand soldiers with better physical conditions from the prisoners, and then used Yuwen Chenglong's personal guards as the skeleton to form a team of more than a thousand people. Dang camp.
After the rear army arrived, Yuwen Chenglong expanded the battalion to 3,000 men and handed it over to Mai Tiezhang, Shen Guang and Yuwen Chengxiang for training!…
The main training subject of Tiaodang Camp is special operations in various terrains, including hunting down enemy scouts!
Unfortunately, those scouts sent by Qiao Zhongkui became the grindstone for these three people's training!
Mai Tiezhang has the temperament of a bandit, Shen Guang has the character of a gangster, and Yu Wen Chengxiang is purely a devil. When these three people come together, there is really a mountain of evil ideas, and the bad water is as deep as the sea!
With three bad guys in the lead, and Yuwen Chenglong's 300 personal guards as accomplices, the Tiaodang camp has just been formed, but its destructive power is already quite impressive!
Especially when the majority bullies the minority, the only fate awaiting Qiao Zhongkui's scouts is death, and they are still brutally killed!
After waiting for two days, she didn't get any reply. Even though she had experienced many battles, Qiao Zhongkui felt that her scalp was numb and her neck was filled with yin. It felt like there was an invisible monster behind her. It opened its huge mouth.
Although she was terrified in her heart, Qiao Zhongkui also knew that she had no way out.
If you don't even see the enemy's city wall or a single enemy soldier, and just retreat in despair, even if you don't get killed by Yang Liang when you go back, you probably won't have a chance to raise your head in this life!
After weighing in his mind for a long time, Qiao Zhongkui gritted his teeth, and with a cruel heart, he dispatched a team of 3,600 people from the three prefectures in one go, divided them into three parts, and went out to investigate the news in response to each other.
Not to mention, although Qiao Zhongkui's trick is a bit stupid, it is really effective!
It took less than half a day for these scouts to go out, and finally one of them returned to the camp alive!
However, although this guy is still alive, he only has one breath left!
After barely holding on, he reported to Qiao Zhongkui that he was "robbed and killed by a Sui army scout", and the scout finally died gloriously!
"Huh! It turns out to be a scout of the Sui Army!" Although the news brought back by this scout was not of great military value, it still made Qiao Zhongkui breathe a sigh of relief, "It's good that he is a human being!"
After confirming that there wasn't a monster behind him that was preparing to eat him, Qiao Zhongkui became more courageous and thought for a moment, "Although more than 5,000 people died, there are still more than 50,000 people on my side! A certain family didn't believe it. , will a powerful country from a certain family be a small-faced opponent?"
"A certain family is working steadily, not seeking merit, but seeking no faults. I really don't believe what a little baby like you can do to a certain family!"
Having made up his mind, Qiao Zhongkui finally set up camp and crawled towards Pujin Pass at a turtle's speed.
Originally, Qiao Zhongkui's military camp was only fifty miles away from Pujin Pass, and the final location of the camp was almost ten miles away from Pujin Pass. In other words, Qiao Zhongkui only had to move the military camp forward forty miles!
But it was these forty miles that the cautious Qiao Zhongkui had to walk for three days to finish!
I have to admit that Qiao Zhongkui's caution is quite effective!
In the past three days, the Tiaodang camp led by Mai Tiezhang and the other two people just didn't seize a chance to attack and kill because, this time, Qiao Zhongkui didn't send scouts out at all!
Even if there is an occasional need to explore the terrain, at least it will be a team of more than 5,000 people!
This is far beyond the concept of a scout! It's just bullying others based on the number of people!
After squatting in the pit for several days, there was no chance to knock out the sap. The enemies had already arrived at the Pujin Pass. The three bad guys had no choice. After a brief discussion, they led the troops back to the pass to ask for instructions from the boss Yuwen Chenglong.
