Chapter 737: Yunzhou for help
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Su Dingfang took the horse and left without looking back, heading straight to Yunzhou City. It was also a blessing that his BMW was the Qianli BMW he personally chose at the horse farm in the northwest of Baifan. Otherwise, if it were an ordinary horse, he would have been able to hold on if he could have been killed in seven in seven out like this.
"You can't let him go, shoot arrows." The Right Xian King shouted angrily, and the three of them all drew their bows and arrows and pointed them at Su Dingfang.
"The army rushed into Yunzhou City." Yuan Gaisuwen shouted.
At this time, Yunzhou City wanted to pick Su Dingfang into the city, and the city gate could not be closed.
But the army was far away from the city. Everyone had always thought that they could capture Su Dingfang. Thinking that the Yunzhou city gate had been closed long ago, but they didn't expect that Su Dingfang would use a strategy and fight and walk slowly and escape.
So at this time, even if Yuan Gaisuwen saw the opportunity, it was too late to take the opportunity to enter the city. He was all infantry, and the cavalry brigade of the Western Turks was killed and had almost no combat power. It was difficult to organize it, let alone let them rush into the city.
With three muffled sounds of arrows entering the flesh, Su Dingfang, who was running wildly, was shot by three generals chasing behind him. All three arrows were inserted straight into the back, and one of them passed through his body. However, Su Dingfang, who gritted his teeth and forced himself to hold on, insisted and did not fall down until he closed his eyes and rushed into the Yunzhou city gate, and could no longer hold on.
The soldiers in the city gate immediately closed the door and blocked it. They grabbed Su Dingfang's fast horse and took Su Dingfang down. At this time, he was already unconscious.
Three days later, in Youzhou City, the depressed Cheng Yaojin was drinking with Chai Shao.
"Zhi Madam, after waiting for so many days, I heard that the other party had been attacking Maogong for a long time, why didn't he come to Youzhou? Could it be that they and Maogong had spent time?
If this is the case, wouldn’t our Great Wall be in vain?” Cheng Yaojin complained.
Chai Shao did not drink alcohol, and it was a strict order in the army. As a good general with self-discipline, Chai Shao was obviously more calm than Cheng Yaojin.
The scout poked out three hundred miles around, but there was no trace of the enemy. This was also the reason why Cheng Yaojin was depressed and drunk. At this distance, even if the enemy wanted a large army to attack, he would have to march for two days.
Knowing that Cheng Yaojin was eager to seek revenge on Goguryeo people, Chai Shao advised: "Old Cheng, why are you anxious? This time we are in the Battle of Defense of the Kingdom. Even if the enemy comes, we will only defend the enemy. How can you still kill all the enemies? Wait patiently. Even if there is no war this time, you will definitely be the main force of Goguryeo after the autumn."
Cheng Yaojin drank a big sip of strong wine and laughed, but Lao Chai knew him.
"Report, there is an emergency in front of you, Yunzhou asks for help." A burst of rapid footsteps came from the yard before entering the main hall of the General's Mansion.
Chai Shao and the others stood up instantly. What's going on?
At this time, a small team of guards outside carried an exhausted soldier in. Cheng Yaojin was awakened and immediately recognized him as a confidant beside Niu Jinda and exclaimed: "Niu San, what's going on? What's wrong with Yunzhou City?"
The man's face was pale and his lips were cracked. He obviously had no time to drink water. When he saw Cheng Yaojin, he excitedly said in a hoarse voice: "Three days ago, 400,000 enemy troops attacked Yunzhou, and the sky thunder failed. Something happened to 50,000 cavalrymen. Yunzhou is in a hurry, please..."
Before he finished speaking, he fainted.
"Hurry up, I'll send the military doctor a good treatment. I'll report it to me quickly when I wake up." Chai Shao ordered.
Several people quickly carried the messenger away.
"No, I want to lead troops to rescue Yunzhou. There are 400,000 troops. Once Yunzhou is lost, the Tang Dynasty will be in danger." Cheng Yaojin shouted and was about to mobilize troops.
Chai Shao hurriedly held it, "Know the truth, let's wait!"
The military situation is not clear, so we must plan before moving."
"Didn't you hear that the 50,000 cavalry are over? The lives of Lao Hei and Lao Niu!
There is also Yunzhou. Yunzhou has been washed away twice and cannot happen again for the third time. Whoever is surnamed Chai, do you have a conscience?" Cheng Yaojin cursed.
"What if Yunzhou has been lost?"
That……
Cheng Yaojin was confused. He forgot this. It has been three days. Can Yunzhou be defended? If he has gone, he has lost it, then wouldn’t he ask you to fall into the trap?
"I have 30,000 thunders!" Cheng Yaojin shouted.
"What did the messenger just said? The sky-booming thunder has failed and our advantage is gone."
"Impossible. I took someone to hunt for two the day before yesterday..."
In desperation, Cheng Yaojin told him about his embarrassing things, but Chai Shao was clear at this time and did not care about Cheng Yaojin's nonsense. He pressed his shoulder and analyzed: "I'm not saying that the thunder of the sky will not sound. What if the commander's meaning is that the enemy has a way to deal with the thunder of the sky?"
"This..." Cheng Yaojin finally calmed down. Yes, Lao Hei regarded the Sky Thunder as his treasure. Naturally, the Sky Thunder would not be the Sky Thunder and the Fire was silent. Then there is only one explanation. The enemy is not afraid of Sky Thunder.
"What should I do? You said, Lao Hei and Lao Niu can't wait."
"You can't wait, but you have to wait. Your 50,000 army cannot take risks. Wait until the messenger wakes up and asks about the situation."
On the other hand, in two days, Taiyuan garrison Li Daoyan also received an urgent report from the messenger. He made a quick decision and rushed to Chang'an for help for 800 miles. He led 20,000 Taiyuan garrisons to decisively head north to support him.
As for the city defense of Taiyuan City, this is the old nest of the Li family's royal family and belongs to the hinterland. If the fallen army invades in Yunzhou, it may not be safe. Please do not have city defense for the time being. Leave it to the guards of the Wang family of Taiyuan and Jinyang Palace for a while, and the military situation is so hot that it is too hot.
Li Daoyan is Li Daozong's younger brother. Although he is not as good as his elder brother in war, it is enough to station one side. Now that the territory of the Tang Dynasty has expanded northward to the grassland, Taiyuan has become the hinterland. However, there is a Jinyang Palace here, so a royal general was arranged to guard it. Otherwise, there would be no general at all, only governing officials.
Back two days ago, 400,000 troops attacked Yunzhou. At this time, there were only 20,000 infantry defenders in Yunzhou City and 10,000 remaining cavalry soldiers garrisoned. Fortunately, Su Dingfang had only one arrow through his chest and had been stabbed by an old wounded doctor. The other two arrows were skin trauma.
The 30,000 enemy troops were killed by 50,000 cavalry mixed with sky-blasting thunder in the Tang Dynasty that day. Now there are only 80,000 cavalry left, and there are still 200,000 infantry, so 280,000 are obviously more than enough to attack Yunzhou City, which has 30,000 defenders.
Without the Thunder of the Sky, I won’t be able to guard it for long, let alone the 30,000 people, even the original 80,000 people.
The next day of the bloody battle, the 30,000 defenders lost 15,000. Seeing that the city would be broken one day, Yuchi Gong and Niu Jinda's anxious eyes were red.
At this time, a guard came to report that Su Dingfang had passed the dangerous period and woke up to see the general.
Yuchi Gong and the others rushed over quickly and saw Su Dingfang's face was pale and worried.
"Dingfang, fortunately you survived, otherwise the family would not know how to explain to the pharmacist." Yuchi Gong said.
Su Dingfang closed his eyes slightly, as if he was trying his best to calm his mind, and then opened his eyes again, with a trace of light added to his eyes.
"General, abandon the city, you can't defend it anymore. It echoes the people who scattered south all night and fled south. We have a day of vain and may still have a chance. Otherwise, after the jade and stone are burned, the enemy will slaughter Yunzhou City again.
I have a plan to fight and retreat, and delay until the reinforcements arrive, which means victory."
Niu Jinda's reaction was the most intense: "No, Yunzhou has been slaughtered twice, and it must not be slaughtered for the third time, and it will never be allowed."
Yuchi Gong obviously listened and nodded, "Okay, let's listen to you. You have a good rest and hold on. We have asked for help."
However, Su Dingfang grabbed Yuchi Gong's hand hard, opened his eyes wide and said sixteen words: "The enemy advances and I retreat, the enemy stands and I disturb you, the enemy is tired, I will fight, the enemy retreats and do not chase you!"
After saying that, he fainted again. This was when he was in the academy. He heard the military tactics taught by his junior brother Bai Fan. When dealing with the situation in Yunzhou, Su Dingfang changed the last sentence. Because Yuchi Gong and the other two were not wise generals, they were afraid of being trapped by the enemy, so the enemy could retreat. Don’t chase the enemy, just delay the time.
"Military doctor, save people quickly, save people!" Yuchi Gong panicked.
"General, it's okay. General Su just fainted after being exhausted and injured. Just rest more. However, the penetration injury on Yunzhou cannot be cured, and he needs a miracle doctor from Chang'an."
Niu Jinda nodded and said, "I sent a hundred elite guards to send Dingfang back to Chang'an, and leave now."
"Okay, I'll arrange for people to prepare for retreat. Yunzhou doesn't want it. What Dingfang said in the end was obviously a masterful military strategy. Have you ever recorded it?"
"Well, it depends on this plan."
