Chapter 251 Iron Cavalry with Sound Pressure Golden Drum (6)
Chapter 251 Iron Cavalry's continuous sound pressing of the Golden Drum (Sixth)
Watching the enemy troops surrounding the city go away little by little, Wang Shao's mind relaxed slightly. The sound of the horn seemed to be echoing in his ears, but the city was empty. Wang Shao secretly praised Yu Zang Huama's decision to let go if he put it down. If others were leading the army, they would probably stop after they were beaten to death.
Although he was still worried about Wang Shunchen and his more than a thousand soldiers trapped in Xingluojie City. He was also preparing to pick out about a thousand elite troops from the city and chased behind the withdrawn enemy troops, making them unable to attack Xingluojie City. The reason for Yu Zang Huama's retreat was quite thoughtful. The answers that Wang Shao thought of all made sense, making it difficult for him to confirm - but now, Wang Shao just wants to relax for a while.
But Wang Hou quickly broke his fantasy and hurriedly took someone to the top of the city. Wang Shao recognized him, but he was Han Gang's confidant. Yu Zang Huama retreated from the siege, and his connection with Gu Wei had been restored to the open, so there was nothing to be surprised that the messenger entered the city.
"What the hell is Yukun saying?" After he gave his respect, Wang Shao immediately asked, "Is there any reinforcements?"
The confidant nodded: "You. Jiyi has already told you to inspect the blind medicine."
The camp that Miao Su was firmly defended and the Weiyuan Fort led by Wang Shao were all defended steadily under the attack of the Tubo army led by Yu Zang Huama. Even when the offensive was the most fierce, Wang Shao never expected reinforcements.
He thought that Yu Longke would come first. Qingtang City was only thirty or forty miles away from Guwei Village. With the means of Gao Zunyu and Han Gang, he could force Yu Longke's fox out of the cave.
Wang Shao never expected that Han Gang had heard the news halfway through Weiyuan and went straight to find a closer blind medicine. However, blind medicine was more unfair than his brother, and it was much more difficult to get him to get a chestnut from the fire than to pull out an old fox. He sent troops to be hostile to Yu Zang Huama. The attitude of blind medicine learned from Yu Longke to fall with the wind has become more inclined to the Song Dynasty.
"How did Han Yukun talk about the blind medicine?" Wang Shao asked what his father wanted to ask.
The messenger told Han Gang what he did from beginning to end. Although Wang Shao and Wang Hou were used to Han Gang's style of conduct, he directly killed Ye Lizheng, which surprised them. He was also quite impressed by Han Gang's relinquishing a great achievement that could make him famous in the court.
"Yukun has helped a lot." After hearing this, Wang Shao murmured, and then he suddenly raised his head and said to Wang Hou, "Go and find Miao Du Pass. This time, Yu Zang Huama has to come and go!"
After the sunrise, the air above the city was still filled with the burning smell of torches. When the sun was in the middle of the sky, it had not faded after half a day. The dust in the air dyed the clear blue of the previous few days with a layer of ambiguous turbidity.
Wang Shunchen closed his eyes and leaned against the stool while sleeping. After a night battle, the city and the city were exhausted. The Tubo people's military strength was only twice that of Wang Shunchen. He stayed up late last night and no one could rest. Not only was Wang Shunchen's side so tired, but the enemy troops under the city did not continue to attack today.
But even if he attacked, Wang Shunchen was not afraid at all. According to the normal combat power exchange ratio, more than 2,000 foreign soldiers could barely compete with a thousand elite imperial guards. If it weren't for the concern that they were all cavalry and the main force attacking Weiyuan Fort might return at any time, Wang Shunchen would have sent people out of the city to fight in the field long ago.
A literate personal soldier of Wang Shunchen reported the losses of last night in front of him. "There were 203 fighters last night, and forty-two people who did not come back. The remaining more than 30 seriously injured and sick people cannot rejoin the battle in a short time."
Wang Shunchen's face was as gloomy as the sky above his head. Only two hundred people followed him out of the city to raid, forty-two people were unable to return, and more than thirty people were lying on the hospital bed now. The ones he took out for the night attack were all the elite among the elites, but he didn't expect the losses to be so miserable.
Wang Shunchen closed his eyes, and his personal soldiers didn't know what he was thinking, and hesitated and his voice stopped.
"Why don't you say it?" Wang Shunchen opened his eyes and asked.
The personal soldiers hurriedly continued to Wang Shunchen: "There are more than 12,000 arrows, which have been concentrated and distributed to those who are good at archery skills. However, there is no way to defend the city."
The city was extremely short of arrows, and there was no oil, no wood and stone, and there was not much firewood to boil water, and the equipment to guard the city was even more destitute. Although the Song army was good at guarding, it was difficult for a skilled woman to cook without rice. She lacked enough supplies to defend the city. Wang Shunchen could only let his subordinates prepare to fight against the Tubo people head-on on the city.
Wang Shunchen was very puzzled. He was not a major transportation road like Dalaigu, nor did he hide much gold, silver and wealth. He was just empty and empty city. Why would the traitors hold on to it? Whether it is the Tubo people or the Dangxiang people, they fought for wars to grab money, grain and women, and they would never go to lose money business at any time.
But Wang Shunchen found that what he is facing now is an elite of organized forces, and his tenacity is much stronger than that of ordinary people, so he was surprised: 'Who are they?'
The faint vibration from the ground interrupted Wang Shunchen's guess. He jumped up and looked east. He saw dust rising from the sky, covering the valley among the eastern mountains like fog. After a while, thousands of cavalry appeared in front of him.
The sound of the trumpet sounded, and thousands of troops came to the ground. When the defenders in the city heard it, it was like the chains of the Gousi people making noises.
The enemy troops surrounded outside the city suddenly had nearly one and a half times more troops. On the top of the city, everyone had a pale face. They were originally besieged and were gradually lost. Now there was another new force, which made them completely lose confidence.
Wang Shunchen looked at his subordinate who had become numb, and a ruthless aura arose in his heart, "Let me listen to those who don't want to die! The foreign people are only six or seven thousand. When will the foreign thieves break the city less than ten times the defenders?! Let me be cheered up!"
He roared loudly and said lies without hesitation: "No one wants to be told about the two eggs in his crotch, and be scared by the foreigners, right? Don't lose the face of the Guanxi man. Keep up with today, Wang Anfu will definitely bring reinforcements tomorrow!"
In the Xixia camp besieging Xingluojie City, Yu Zang Huama jumped off the horse's back. The fatigue accumulated over the past few days did not affect his agility at all, but the smoke and dust rose up made him cough a few times.
Although he had withdrawn from Weiyuan Fort, Yu Zang Huama did not want to immediately follow the Dalai Valley and retreat to the west side of Bird Rat Mountain. Although he had achieved his original goal, he mobilized many troops this time and even made a wish to Mu Zheng's younger brother, but he did not even take down a city. Yu Zang Huama did not plan to do such a waste of time.
If you send troops to work hard and do a loss-making business, it will definitely hurt the morale of the army. Yu Zang Huama knew that the clan leader of the Xiaofan tribe under his command followed him to fight for money, which was not loyalty and righteousness. If you can't shoot some things back, you won't be empty-handed. Yu Zang Huama has never heard of the four words Yu Zang Huama, and even if you have heard of it, it won't be used on his head. However, his idea was that it coincided with these four words. It's nothing to be able to defeat Weiyuan Fort, but it would be too embarrassing to not even defeat Xingluojie City.
Yu Zang Huama dismounted, and several generals of the Yu Zang family knelt in front of him. Their faces were against the ground, and they dared not raise their heads a little. With a deep shame, they apologized to Yu Zang Huama.
Yu Zang Huama stared at the back of their heads condescendingly, his eyes full of anger of regret.
At the beginning, Yu Zang Huama never imagined that he could successfully capture Weiyuan Fortress and capture Xingluojie City, which was worth the trip. But he did not expect that the people he left behind were incompetent. He handed over all the elite troops of his headquarters to them, and he led the coalition forces of the vassal tribe to block Weiyuan Fortress. He attacked a dilapidated small city with nearly three times the strength of his troops. There was a lonely army in the city, but there was no result yet.
"If you like to kneel down, just kneel down. Let's try to see if you can kneel down Xingluo Jiecheng." Yu Zang Huama threw down a fierce sentence and strode into the main tent.
Several generals raised their heads and looked like earth. They could not have imagined that Yu Zang Huama would be so angry. This made them lose their mind for a moment and didn't know what to do. But soon Yu Zang Huama's personal guard came out and called them in.
"Say, how long will it take for you to defeat that city?" Yu Zang Huama asked with a tiger face.
The tent was quiet for a while, and a hesitant voice sounded: "...a day."
Yu Zang Huama picked up a teacup on his hand and smashed it down, "Where did the day come from?"
When he retreated, he guarded the retreat with a thousand elite troops, so that Wang Shao could not pursue it at close range. The time he gained from it was Yu Zang Huama who wanted to use it to break the city in one fell swoop. But there was a time limit for his arrival, and Wang Shao would never abandon the soldiers in Xingluojie City. Yu Zang Huama had some understanding of the number of soldiers blocked in the city, with a full three commands and a thousand troops. Wang Shao would definitely not afford to lose. Even if the road was blocked, he would definitely try to take a detour from other places to rescue him.
According to Yu Zang Huama's calculations, under Wang Shao's pursuit, he only had less than one day. If he could not capture Xingluo Jiecheng after half a day, the remaining choice would be to retreat.
Yu Zang Huama, who had just inherited the position of leader of the Yu Zang family, would never let his name be associated with failure. His cold eyes licked the faces of the generals like a poisonous snake, staring at their hearts tightly.
