Chapter 608

dawn.

Cheng Yaojin stood on the wild horse platform with no sleepiness and looked into the north.

Reinforcements had arrived and they won a big victory, but in the next few days, there was no movement. Except for the daily ranger chasing the sentry battle between the two sides, neither side had the intention of a head-on battle.

Lao Cheng also tried to break through and go down the mountain, rushing during the day, rushing at night, and rushing in the middle of the night. He tried all kinds of methods, but the King of Tianzhu guarded the mountain like an iron bucket. At the downhill, there was a trench on the left and a trench on the right, and a fence on the left and a fence on the right.

Then there were horse-rejecting, pits, pickets, and countless archers were stationed behind them.

It is impossible for him, with only his seven thousand men, to break through the siege.

The deployment of Qin Lang ten miles north to assist was a little difficult for Lao Cheng to understand. He actually lined up along the mountain, digging trenches and building a tower of arches. It seemed that both sides were digging pits in competitions, but they had no intention of fighting to attack.

Lao Cheng was a little confused. Seeing this, he seemed to be waiting.

But what are you waiting for?

There were tens of thousands of troops on the other side. The last battle cost more than 10,000 yuan, but they also received thousands of Lao Liu. There are still about 30,000 yuan. This is already a new force. Judging from the performance of their ability to defeat Fu Yun's 100,000 yuan that day, they should be able to fight.

Could there be reinforcements?

But where are the reinforcements?

Isn't it because I'm waiting for reinforcements from Li Daozong in Liangzhou, Hexi? Or I'm waiting for reinforcements from Qin Qiong in Songzhou, Jiannan?

But how could they know the situation here, and it was even more impossible for them to come all the way.

Or is it that the casualties in that battle were too great, and Qin Sanlang was already injured and was now powerless?

It is only ten miles apart, but it is isolated by the Tuyuhun Army.

As the days passed, Lao Cheng became more and more worried. The lonely army was in such a desperate situation, the longer he stayed, the more difficult it was to escape.

"Fire!"

"Master, the southwest fire!"

The personal soldiers standing behind suddenly shouted loudly. Old Cheng suddenly turned around. As expected, with a high view, the southwest was not far away, and the flames were lit up.

"This is?"

"It seems that the cavalry who came from the Hot Spring Valley rushed into Fuyun's Dongdatan."

"A cavalry raised fire and killed the floating bridge."

"They seized the north shore of the pontoon bridge."

"There are cavalry climbing the mountain and coming to the Wild Horse Beach."

The captain of the personal soldiers shouted excitedly.

Old Cheng narrowed his eyes and saw that there was indeed a soldier and horse running towards him. If you only look at the fire, there would be at least 20,000 people. However, the number of people cannot be accurately judged by the fire in the dark night. When generals who understand military tactics attack at night, they usually bluff and use more torches to avoid letting the enemy accurately judge the number.

The real and the real are very important.

From the southwest and along the Hot Spring Valley, where did this cavalry come from? It seems that the troops are very elite. They attacked quickly and captured the important floating bridge almost instantly. Their forwards even rushed towards the Wild Horse Beach platform unstoppable.

There was also a larger number of troops rushing straight to the camp of Fuyun, Dongdatan.

He saw it clearly from this high place.

Where did the soldiers come from? It could not be Qin Lang’s northern army, they are already in the north.

In the southwest, could it be that Shubao sent troops? He sent troops from Songzhou and came from Dangxiang to the southwest?

This must be the case. The nearest one is Shubao's troops.

Old Cheng slapped his thighs suddenly, "Hurry up and pass my orders, Shubao led the army to kill, and the brothers all followed me to go down the mountain to respond."

"Also, immediately ignite the beacon, remind Qin Sanlang and Lao Liu in the north, and ask them to send troops to respond quickly. His grandmother's, it's finally time for us to counterattack."

Lao Cheng said as he ran towards the tent.

The horn sounded, and seven thousand people on the Mustang stage had already woken up.

"Follow me and kill!"

With the help of his personal soldiers, Lao Cheng, who quickly put on his armor, jumped on the horse and rushed down the stage with the first horse.

At this time, let alone the trenches and fences below, even if it is a sea of ​​swords and fire, it will not stop him.

"rush!"

One soldier after another was wearing armor and holding swords, following closely behind.

On the wild horse platform, the beacon smoke ignited and the flames soared into the sky.

The Tang Dynasty beacon towers burned smoke during the day and raised fire at night, all have a relatively common set of signals. Different fireworks represent different information, and sometimes they can even use fireworks of different colors to convey more accurate information.

The wild horse is facing the north, and the Tangying area is facing the Yellow River.

Looking at the sentry on the tower, he slid down and rushed to the central army to report.

"Reported, fire was raised on the Wild Horse Platform to convey military information. Twenty thousand troops arrived from the southwest. General Cheng has led his troops to attack. I hope our battalion will cooperate!"

Chai Shao rose up in his clothes and was excited when he heard the news.

"This is the arrival of Duke of Wei, which is two days earlier than the agreed time, and it is coming very quickly."

"Tell them to General Murong, General Yifu, General Xiaopeng, General Liu, General Liang, and tell them that the wild geese will return south and act according to the plan."

A cavalry commander was running in the camp, and the general's order was quickly passed down.

The sound of horns of battalions sounded, and the generals who received the orders understood the military order. The wild geese returned south, which represented Qin Lang leading his army to detour and acted according to the plan, and naturally attacked according to the previous agreed plan.

Each battalion was driven out according to the generals and went out directly to empty camps. After several days of cultivation, it seemed that the camp that was about to be built into permanent fortifications was not needed.

All the troops could move.

A light cavalry, carrying Chai Shao's military order, galloped northward and arrived at the foot of the northern mountain. This battlefield where the battle was fought several days ago, had a group of 20,000 people gathered in the woods on the mountain, but it had been quietly hidden here. This group of people was the auxiliary troops of the three armies of the Northern Army.

They carried food and supplies and moved slowly. Chai Shao specially asked them to hide here and wait for use as a surprise soldier.

Now, since the geese have returned south, there is no need to hide this surprise soldier anymore, and the whole army will come together.

Twenty thousand auxiliary soldiers, composed of Tuyuhun surrendered troops and Dangxiang Fusu, received orders at this time, and they rode their horses out. The supplies, materials, equipment, and livestock were all left in the wild horses. Although the 20,000 cavalry were called auxiliary soldiers, they were all young and strong men in Tuyuhun, Murong and Xianbei Yifu, as well as Tuoba Qiang.

Chai Shao and Liu Lan formed two 30,000 troops, and took the lead in killing the Tianzhu Wang Army under the Wild Horse. There were 60,000 troops here, besieging Cheng Yaojin and 7,000 people on the Wild Horse Taishan.

King Tianzhu had never sent all his troops to the beach before. I don’t know what worries were, but the 60,000 people were actually not afraid of the more than 30,000 Tang troops on the beach, and put more Tuyuhun troops on the beach.

But he might not have expected that there would be Tang army appearing, let alone from the southwest.

Xi Jun bought a thousand light cavalry and ran up the winding mountain road. They didn't take it for too long to have a fifteen or sixteen miles of mountain road.

When they rushed to the Wild Horse Beach Platform on the Mountain, they found that tens of thousands of Tang troops had blocked the tens of thousands of Tuyuhun troops' way down the mountain, and the surrounded Tang troops on the platform were also rushing down like tigers down the mountain.

To the north, there are thousands of horses rushing towards the fire.

Xi Junmai was shocked, why are there so many Tang soldiers on this beach?

A light rider ran towards him.

However, Liu Rengui, the vanguard under Liu Lancheng, the general of the Right Army of the Southern Route Army, came to greet him, "Which general is here to help?"

Xi Junmae stepped forward, "I am the governor of Minzhou, Xi Junmae, the chief supervisor of the Central Army of the North Road Army of the West Expedition, and what part do you belong to?"

It was not yet dawn, and it was difficult to distinguish for a moment.

I heard that it was Xi Junmai, and Liu Rengui immediately took off his helmet, "I am Liu Rengui, the commander of Guoyi, under General Liu, the right army of the Southern Army, to meet General Xi."

After the joint confirmed his identity, the two briefly informed each other of military information.

"I will lead General Xi to see Duke Chai and Duke Liu." When he learned that Qin Lang was still at the foot of the mountain, he rushed to fight over more than 100,000 people with 5,000 people. Liu Rengui quickly led him to see Chai Shao and Liu Lancheng in person and explained.

The soldiers and horses ran around the Tuyuhun Camp for a while and saw Qin Lang's commanding flag from afar.

Xi Junmai met Chai Shao who was commanding here, and Zhang Chao who was still wearing golden armor pretending to be Qin Lang.

"Duke of Wei attacked the Fuyun camp in Dongdatan with five thousand cavalry? Is he not afraid of being surrounded?"

"Duke Wei asked General Gao Zhensheng to lead two thousand people to seize the floating bridge. Now he is the one who guards the floating bridge to isolate the three troops from the East Datan, the West Datan and the Wild Horse Beach in Tuyuhun." Xi Junmai replied.

Chai Shao thought for a while, "But there are nearly 200,000 people in the east and west, and 7,000 people are afraid they can't defend it." He waved to Liu Rengui, "You can lead three thousand men and horses to follow General Xi and kill them down the mountain. In addition, I will also drive the 20,000 auxiliary soldiers who have just arrived to you."

"Duke Huo, Xuanxiang's tactics, first annihilate the Tuyuhun army on the Wild Horse Beach, remove the siege of General Cheng, and then go down the mountain like a tiger and dive into the other two enemy troops. Do not divide the troops down the mountain, otherwise you will not be able to defeat any place at that time. You must first concentrate your superior forces, eat one, and then defeat them one by one!" Xi Jun bought.

"Qin Lang's plan is too dangerous. Once he can't hold on, there will be a risk of annihilation."

"Duke Wei had expected that Huo Gong would say this, so he told me that Duke Huo would not have to worry about him. He also said that Fu Yun had become a frightened bird at this time, and the camp was in chaos. After he attacked, Fu Yun could not do anything to him. On the contrary, Duke Wei said that he had five thousand cavalry, which was enough to completely confuse the more than 100,000 people in Fu Yun's camp, so that they could no longer reinforce the wild horse beach."

"If Mr. Huo is really worried about the foot of the mountain, he can send two or three thousand bowmen down the mountain to help General Gao Zhensheng guard the intersection and the floating bridge. If he really can't defend it, burn the floating bridge first and retreat to the mountain. Never let the King of Tianzhu cross Henan and enter the Fuyun Camp in Dongdatan, or go to the Wild Horse Beach Platform north."

Chai Shao had to be amazed that Qin Lang had a good plan. Although the Tianzhu King had 40,000 troops in Xidatan, he was controlled by the key passage and could only be isolated from Xidatan.

"Okay, General Xi, you lead our troops down the mountain to reinforce General Gao. I will let Liu Rengui lead three thousand archers down the mountain to reinforce."

"I finally ran up the mountain and didn't release an arrow. Please arrange other people if you don't want to. Besides, the archer at the foot of the mountain is needed. We are the elite riders, so we are more useful at the foot of the mountain."

Chai Shao had no choice but to call out another commander's name and asked him to take three thousand Longyou cavalry infantry archers and Liu Rengui down the mountain to reinforce, guard the intersection and the floating bridge, block the 40,000 troops of the King of Tianzhu in Xidatan, and prevent them from coming to reinforce.

"When he heard the arrangements of Duke Wei, he suppressed Fu Yun for us and blocked King Tianzhu, creating the greatest convenience for us. We now have more than 50,000 troops to deal with the 60,000 Tuyuhun army. What else can I say? Before the dawn is dawn, I want you to level the enemy camp trenches and trenches in front of you."
