The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 1369 The Battle of Weizhou ([-])

"They want to attract the defenders of Jiuzhaigou!"

Tu Boda cried out in surprise.

After saying this, even the generals next to him changed color.

If the army of Jiuzhai came to help, but the Song army did not divide its troops to attack the city...then...

The total number of troops they deployed in Jiuzhai was no more than [-]. Facing so many Song troops, it was like sending sheep into the mouth of a tiger.

An anxious look appeared in Tu Boda's eyes, "Hurry up! Hurry up! Tell the soldiers of Jiuzhaigou not to rush to help..."

"slow!"

When the messenger beside him was about to run away, he suddenly thought of something and waved his hand violently.Then he fell silent.

If the soldiers of Jiuzhai did not come to help, but the Song army took the opportunity to launch a general attack on Weizhou City, what should we do?
Military orders are like mountains, and they cannot be changed again and again.

Here the wolf smoke just started, and then went out, so that they don't have to come to help.Then suddenly there was another wolf smoke, what would the soldiers of Jiuzhai think?

Tu Boda frowned deeply.

After a few minutes passed, he said in a deep voice: "Order the soldiers of Jiuzhaigou, tell them not to divide their troops to rush to help. Gather first, and then rush over!"

"Yes!"

The orderly led the way.

Tu Boda looked out of the city again, with a serious expression on his face, "Do you want to force us to fight...then let's fight, and I'll see how your Song Army plans to defeat my [-] soldiers."

The sun, which was only showing a little light on the edge of the sky before, is now fully exposed, and it is rising higher and higher.

Time passed without haste.

Outside the city, there was no movement from the Forbidden Army in Central Shu.

Amidst the creaking sound, the gates on the east and west sides of Weizhou City were opened one after another.Dozens of scouts each went out of the city and headed out of the city.

Because the imperial guards in central Shu only gathered outside the south gate, the east and west gates were empty.

Of course, this is also caused by the terrain.

There are mountains on the east and west sides of Weizhou City, and it is difficult for the imperial army of the Song Dynasty to cross the mountains and press down on the east and west sides.It is also unrealistic to open the east and west city gates.

After these scouts left the city, they were divided into several groups.The scouts on the left side of Weizhou City were divided into two groups at the fork at the end of the official road.

Although Li Xiushu's reforms in Xixia have been quite effective in recent years, generally speaking, Xixia is still poor, far from being as well-connected as the Song Dynasty.

From Jiuzhai to Weizhou City, there are only two villages with direct official roads.The rest are just paths.

Of course, it is not impossible to cross mountains and mountains, but probably no army will do that.

Crossing mountains and ridges means that soldiers will have to exert more physical strength, and then the consumption of food will also be greater.Anyway, it's a thankless job.

Although Daxia would pay for the food and grass of Tu Boda's Yuan army, but they might have already formed the habit.

If it wasn't a surprise attack, no one would choose the big road instead of going to the mountains and rivers.

Amidst the pat on the horse, several Yuan army scouts were getting farther and farther away from Weizhou City.

They are all very fast horses, because the general has a strict order, let them pass this order to Jiuzhai at the fastest speed.

Tu Boda asked the Jiuzhai Yuan army to come back after gathering, and it would take a lot of time on the way.During this period of time, the Song army may not be able to attack the city.

Furthermore, if the order is not conveyed in time, and some reinforcements from a certain village rush to the outside of Weizhou City first, it will even send sheep into the tiger's mouth.

Next to the official road in the east of Weizhou City.

Yang Kanglong led [-] special soldiers, and several other priests were hiding not far from the official road.

Under the soil slope, there is a black muzzle exposed a little.

"drive!"

"drive!"

There is applause.

Yang Kanglong slightly exposed his head from the bottom of the slope, then retracted abruptly, and said in a low voice, "Get ready! They are coming!"

There was excitement on his face.

The Yuan army had just arrived in Weizhou and Jiuzhai, and it was impossible to communicate with carrier pigeons. It really made Vice Commander Feng realize that these Yuan troops actually sent soldiers out of the city.

Although Yang Kanglong didn't dare to say what order these scouts were trying to convey when they left the city, in any case, it was up to them to annihilate them.

All the special soldiers under his command were also invigorated instantly.Crouching under the soil slope, waiting for those Yuan troops to continue to approach.

"beat!"

When the sound of hoofbeats and clapping became more and more clear, Yang Kanglong finally stepped forward and shouted loudly.

The gunshot broke the tranquility of this official road in an instant.

In an instant, several Yuan army scouts were shot and fell off their horses.

This made them flustered instantly.

"enemy!"

"There are enemy troops!"

Immediately, he reined in his horse in a hurry, and wanted to retreat immediately.

But it was obviously too late.

Yang Kanglong led the special soldiers and rushed out directly from the bottom of the slope.

With a gunshot, Yuan army scouts fell to the ground one after another.

They were only dozens of people, and they couldn't stand the hands of the special soldiers of the Frost Regiment.Those who can be selected to the special regiment, not to mention all of them are sharpshooters, but no matter how poor their marksmanship is, they will not be so bad.

Not to mention, the few priests who followed Yang Kanglong were attacking from the side with weapons at this time.

They didn't act in a hurry, they just prevented some of these Yuan troops from escaping.

Amidst the gunshots, in just a few minutes before and after, the dozens of scouts from the Yuan Army who left the city from the east gate of Weizhou City all fell off their horses.

Some people were shot critically and died directly, while others were not shot critically, but it was impossible to escape again.

Seeing the soldiers of the Frost Regiment gradually approaching with their Shenlong blunderbuss, and several Yuan army scouts who were lucky enough to survive were also holding guns, but their expressions were extremely panicked.

Some people couldn't bear such mental pressure, and suddenly burst into tears, as if they were going crazy.

Yang Kanglong walked in front of the guards, and said in a deep voice: "Our army abandons its weapons and surrenders, and our army treats prisoners preferentially!"

It didn't take much effort. Several Yuan army scouts didn't have the courage to fight to the death in such a desperate situation.Naturally, he also did not choose to commit suicide and die for his country.

After the soldiers tied up these soldiers, Yang Kanglong ordered: "Clean the battlefield quickly!"

And on the two trails on the west side of Weizhou City, the situation is similar to here.

The soldiers of the Frost Regiment ambushing by the road successfully intercepted these Yuan army scouts who were sending messages out of the city.

Then, each of them sent their soldiers back to the army to return to their orders, and after cleaning the battlefield, they ambush in place.

These skills are naturally nothing to special soldiers.

Special forces are not only good at marksmanship and able to fight, they are better at using the environment to complete various unexpected tasks.

After about a while, the soldiers of the Frost Regiment who came back to deliver the message all came back to Zhang Guangbao one after another.

When Zhang Guangbao learned that they stopped the scouts, he couldn't help smiling.

Then he turned his head to look at Feng Hebi who was called over by him, and said, "Deputy Commander Feng, since the Yuan army scouts have been stopped, then let's..."

Feng Hebi nodded slightly.

Zhang Guangbao tilted his head and said to the messenger: "Commander Qiu of the Tianqiao Army, let him lead his soldiers to retreat and make a detour to the official road ten miles east of Weizhou City! Ambush the Yuan army!"

Then he said to another messenger: "You send an order to Commander He of the Heavenly Crying Army to retreat and make a detour to Qitoupo, six miles west of Weizhou City, to lie in ambush."

The two orderlies patted their horses and left.

Zhang Guangbao looked at Feng Hebi again, and said, "Can the two armies of Tianqiao and Tiankui alone be able to stop those Yuan armies?"

Feng Hebi smiled and said: "Weizhou City is full of smoke. According to the general, those Jiuzhai Yuan troops will not dare to neglect, and will rush to help Weizhou City. Jiuzhai, the five villages in the east of the city, and the four villages in the west of the city are not far away from each other. They are more than ten miles away. They should arrive one by one. In this way, there are two armies of Tianqiao and Tiankui."

Zhang Guangbao chuckled twice, "Although the Jiuzhai Yuan Army must have [-] to [-] soldiers, as long as they don't come at the same time, then they will not constitute any threat."

"Exactly."

Feng Hebi nodded slightly again.

Then he said: "Just to be on the safe side, Marshal, you should let the Tianbai army be ready to rush to help at any time! Victory in a war lies in anticipating the enemy's opportunities, and defeat...is a trick of God's will."

"it is good."

Zhang Guangbao just nodded, and sent the messengers to send orders to the Tianbao army.

Although it is normal to infer that those Jiuzhai Yuan troops would not care to assemble when Weizhou City is in danger, in the end, it is not 100% certain.

If the Jiuzhai Yuan army really came together, the tactic of encircling the spot to fight for aid would have failed.Even with the strength of the Forbidden Army in Central Shu, if they want to face the Yuan army in Jiuzhai and Weizhou City at the same time, the outcome can only be said to be mixed.
