Chapter 190: Take Two Towns Lightly
Zhu Li's troops crossed the Yellow River and marched westward for three days, marching day and night, quietly touched the northwest corner of Kujiesha, and the two towns on the north bank of the Yellow River, Huaisuo and the fertile fields across the river. (Kujiesha: Today: Kurchi Desert)
As early as three days ago, when Zhu Li set out, he sent someone to send a quick horse to Wei Zhuang, the governor of Youzhou, and asked him to secretly collect ferries in order to prepare Zhu Li to cross the Yellow River north and to guide Fengzhou.
At the same time, Zhu Li also asked Wei Zhuang to prepare some strong men, demanding that the people who have military experience should be the main force. These people will become the auxiliary soldiers of Zhu Li's main army.
Zhu Li personally acted as a surprise soldier this time, so naturally she had her own comprehensive plan. Not only did she instruct Wei Zhuang to do some things, but she also recruited a Uighur guard under the command of Qi Zizhang from the east.
And this Uighur Prefecture Guard will be the key to his capture of two military towns.
Huaisuo and Woye, two military towns are located in the area where Bayannur is located in the later generations. During the Tang Dynasty, it was affiliated with Wuyuan. The two military towns are mutually supportive and jointly protect the southwest of Fengzhou.
As soon as the army arrived at its destination, they stationed in an inconspicuous depression, Zhu Li couldn't wait to pull the Uighur guards over to train for special training.
Zhu Li first asked them to take off their armor, put down their long swords and spears; then they put on leather armor and picked up the scimitars prepared in advance. These scimitars were Gao Su's spoils and were asked by Zhu Li.
A wave of Uighur rafts was formed. No matter how you look at it, they are real Uighur rafts.
All races are Uighurs, not even from half of other races; fast horses are all unique to the Western Rong; plus longbows and scimitars, they are Uighurs, so who can find fault?
Zhu Li never tires about all kinds of things to pay attention to and what to do when he reaches the other side of the river. He repeatedly instilled in the Uighurs until they kept them in mind and pretended to be vivid. Zhu Li let them return to the team.
A few days later, Weizhuang collected enough ships and quietly sent them to Zhuli's military camp. All the auxiliary soldiers recruited were in place. Zhuli immediately sent a command to Gao Su and Gao Siji to ask them to immediately attack the Di people in the west of Wula Mountain, the more fierce the better.
Wula Mountain is a branch of Yin Mountain. It is a mountain range that tilts southwest from the main body of Yin Mountain. The end of the mountain range is close to the Yellow River channel, the area between Wula Mountain and the Yellow River channel. It is a narrow area and is also the key to the heavy troops of both sides.
This narrow area is the focus of competition between the two sides.
The war broke out very suddenly. For the Di coalition, the sudden outbreak of the battle caused them to suffer great losses before they could recover.
As the saying goes, a dog that bites people does not bark. A truly cruel person never talks to you. If you want to beat you, you will just start beating you without saying a word.
Before the war, there was no sign of anything. He Shuo soldiers rolled up their sleeves and started to fight against the Di people.
For the Di people's coalition, the battle broke out very suddenly, but for the Heshuo soldiers, it was not suddenly at all.
A few days ago, Gao Su and Gao Siji were ready, and all the soldiers under their command received secret orders. As soon as they received Zhu Li's order, the soldiers of Heshuo immediately attacked, which caught Di people off guard and inexplicably.
The Heshuo army took the lead and gained the upper hand. On the battlefield, Heshuo's sword and shield soldiers were in the middle, holding a large shield to resist at the front, and raided forward without fear of death. Heshuo's step shot followed the sword and shield soldiers, and thousands of arrows were shot in the air.
Gao Su and Gao Siji led heavy cavalry armed to the teeth, protecting each other on the left and right. When they were close enough, they collided with each other and were shocked.
Especially Gao Su and Gao Siji, one
A white horse has a long spear, smashes it whenever you see it, kills it when you see it, and a horse dies when you see it; a white horse and silver spear are swung like rain, and the screens are intertwined, and blood bursts everywhere around the two people, splashing everywhere.
Although the Di people were caught off guard, under the command of Yanmujin, they quickly stabilized their positions. A Uighur general with a fierce expression and a deep-skinned face moved to meet Gao Su.
The future will be Gao Su's old acquaintance. It is Shulu's lady-gun, the leader of the Shulu Division. This person is very brave. Gao Su did not gain any advantage even after fighting with him several times. Otherwise, how could the two women Yue Lixin force Gao Su to withdraw from Wuyuan and retreat to Jiuyuan just by relying on Yanmu's pound? It's impossible to think about it.
Later generations' evaluation of Gao Changgong was "a gentle and honest personality, gentle and strong-minded person, beautiful and beautiful voice, and diligent and meticulous work for the general..."
In Gao Changgong's record, in the Battle of Mangshan, he once relied on martial arts to lift the siege of Jinyong City. He also served as the Minister of State, and recorded the Minister of State, the Grand Sima, Taibao, Taiwei, etc., so it can also be seen that heroes in their previous lives could be cowards in this life?
Gao Changgong in his previous life and Gao Su in this life are all brave and courageous men.
The reason why he retreated to Jiuyuan was caused by many reasons. First, his troops were not as strong as the opponent. The Khitan, Uighur, and Dangxiang combined troops, and his troops were almost three times that of his, and they were all elite.
Secondly, Yanmujin is not an ordinary person. This woman is not inferior to Gao Su. In addition, this Shulu Pogu, the leader of the Uighur Shulu Division, has such high martial arts skills that he is not inferior to him.
In any aspect, Gao Su would not win the game. It was a blessing to be able to retreat to Jiuyuan under his command. What's more, the other party has a powerful general who is not as strong as him, but not much less than that of him, and Li Renfu, a Dangxiang man.
With such a lineup and such a strong opponent, how could Gao Su not admit defeat? When it is time to admit defeat, he must be cowardly. Holding on will only lead to bad things.
As soon as Shulu Pogu and Gao Su fought, they were the most intense and fiercest head-on battle. One man danced with a long spear and the other man scattered with a long spear. The sound of "ping, pong..." was endless. Mars splashed around the two, and evil spirits were raging.
Neither of them dared to underestimate each other. They all tried their best and focused. In the thrilling situation, even if a hair blocked the view, they could have a sudden victory or defeat, and a thought of life and death.
Gao Siji on the other side also faced Li Renfu, the general of Dangxiang. Gao Siji was such a powerful general, but he was even in a match with Li Renfu. It can be seen that the two generals of the Di people were all not good at it.
The generals were unable to compete, which also led to the soldiers of both sides fighting to the death.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the bright red blood color invaded the earth. The yellow sand turned into red sand. The viscous and bloody red sand would stick to the feet if it was accidentally stepped on, and it would be a little difficult to move.
Uighurs, Dangxiang Warriors resisted Gao Su, Gao Siji, Yanmujin, and Yuelixin naturally would not be idle either.
Zhang Jingda waved his hand and hundreds of tower ships, ships, vehicles, ships, and patrol ships, etc., all of them were crossed, as if he was about to cross the Yellow River from the south bank of the Yellow River and attack the Di people's central army.
Regarding Zhang Jingda, many people may not know what kind of person he is, his abilities and martial arts?
It can be seen from a sentence recorded in history that "When Zhang Jingda was young, he served as a good person in riding and shooting at the Later Tang Emperor Zhuangzong."
In the words of later generations, can those who can be with the country's number one leader with their bravery, be weak? In terms of ability, if Li Cunxu does not have two skills, he will not look down on him, he is not an actor.
As soon as he saw Gao Su taking the lead in attacking, Zhang Jingda wanted to cross the river by force, but unfortunately, he tried several times and was beaten by the rock.
Mother Jin, Yue Lixin led his troops to repel them, and Zhang Jingda led many troops, at least 20,000 or 30,000 people. Such a new force can completely change the situation of the war. How could Yan Mother Jin let him succeed?
Helpless and anxious, Zhang Jingda finally had to cross half of the river, let the tower ships, ships, vehicles, ships and other warships anchor in the middle of the Yellow River, lined up, and shot against the Khitans with bows and arrows, using this to restrain the Khitans, so that they dare not be negligent and had no time to attack Gao Su and others.
Just when the battle situation at the foot of the Ula Mountain was once glued together and difficult to separate.
Zhu Li led his troops to cross the Yellow River quietly at the westernmost corner of the Yellow River section. As soon as he landed on the shore, he immediately sent the guards who disguised as Uighurs to go to deceive people, of course, to deceive the generals of Huaishuo and Woye towns.
This group of rattlers had known their mission long ago and had already made plans in their hearts. They made themselves dusty and in a mess, and crawled into Huaishuo Town like headless flies.
They were the costumes of Uighurs, and their races were also authentic Uighurs. The Diren Town generals stationed in Huaishuo did not doubt their identity and directly let them go. They even came forward suspiciously to ask about the reason why they were so embarrassed.
The leader was a team leader, very alert. When he saw the other party asking, he immediately said the situation of the battle in Wula Mountain with an anxious look on his face.
Not only did the Yunzhong Tang army led by Gao Su launched an attack on Yanmujin's troops; but also Zhang Jingda's Hanoi Tang army had crossed the Yellow River on the south bank of the Yellow River. Yanmujin's troops were attacked on both sides and were already in a state of dissatisfaction. Finally, he also asked the generals of Huaishuo Town to go for reinforcements.
The Diren Town General in Huaishuo was not a fool. He was only half-believing and half-doubted about the team leader's words. Finally, he asked his scouts. Yanmujin and Gao Su were confronted. As a town general, how could he send scouts to inquire about the news at any time?
This question really happened. The scouts of the Di people had long known about the news that Zhang Jingda was stationed in the south bank of the Yellow River, and the scouts did not raise any doubts about the Uighur team's remarks.
The two are incomparable and impeccable, making Huaishuo Town believe it.
Rescue soldiers were like putting out fires. Since the situation was true, Diren Town generals quickly dispatched troops and led their troops out of Huaishuo, heading eastward to support Yanmujin, Li Renfu and others.
But as soon as they rushed out of Huaishuo, they were suddenly ambushed by Zhu Li and others in a dense forest less than twenty miles away from Huaishuo.
After being suddenly ambushed, Huaishuo Town General suddenly saw a red cloud coming towards him. A mysterious light flashed above the red clouds, like a cold light that cut through the sky. Suddenly, the wind passed by without traces, and it streaked across his neck.
Next, the town general fell down. If someone turned over his body at this time, he would find that there was a blood hole in his throat, and the blood was like a gushing spring, which kept oozing.
Victory and defeat only take a moment, and the general is killed, how can the remaining troops have another storm?
The result was naturally self-evident. The battle ended very quickly, and all the Di people who reacted slowly and had no time to surrender were all killed.
As for the fertile town general, this guy deserves to die. He immediately believed the Uighur team and immediately entered the old path of the Huaishuo town general.
After breaking through the two military towns, Zhu Li sent two commanders to lead the elite troops of a mansion, and two thousand strong men to guard a military town. He himself rode his horse straight towards Wuyuan and ran wildly. That was Zhu Li's main target.
