Wuhu Mingyue

Chapter 171: It's too late

Daiziying Township

Zhang Guang, the governor of Liangzhou, and Yang Maosou, the king of Qiu Chidi, were quietly listening to Zhang Mai's report. What they were most worried about happened. completely alone...

Yang Jian also frowned, without saying a word.

"Brother Jingwu, what do you think? Something happened to Tongguan, right? Otherwise, how could this happen?"

"Brother Maosou, don't worry too much. It was already night when Maier arrived. I think the Tongguan defenders didn't accept Maier into the pass for safety reasons..."

After hearing Zhang Guang's obviously comforting words, Yang Maosou's resentment was kindled.

"Brother Jingwu, it's about the life and death of our army, so don't be careless!"

"Brother Maosou, since we have already stationed here, and I also sent my son to report to Tongguan, but it was getting late and the Tongguan defenders refused to accept it. As long as it is dawn, I will go to Tongguan in person. Zhang Dan, the prefect of Tongguan, and I are also old friends, so he will definitely know the purpose of our visit, when the time comes, the two places will join forces and help each other inside and outside, and we will definitely be able to kill the Xiongnu by surprise!"

Seeing that Zhang Guang was still insisting on his own opinion, Yang Maosou couldn't persuade him anymore, so he turned his head away and remained silent...

Yang Jian nodded suddenly and said, "Uncle Zhang, father, there seems to be some movement in the rear?"

Everyone followed Yang Jiantou's words and looked to the rear of their camp.

Indeed, it seemed that a person was rushing towards his camp at a fast pace.

The guards of the camp immediately entered a state of alert, and each of the archers drew their bows to aim at the fast approaching single horse.

"Maier, pass on the old man's password, no shooting, let him in alone!"

"No, my lord father!"

after a while

A messenger came to Zhang Guang and others.

"Excuse me, this is the camp of Mr. Zhang Guangzhang, governor of Liangzhou? This villain is the messenger of Mr. Zhang Dan, the prefect of Tongguan!"

Zhang Mai opened his mouth first and said: "The person in front of you is my father, Mr. Zhang Guangzhang, the governor of Liangzhou!"

The messenger immediately fell to his knees when he heard the words, took out a letter from his arms, and held it up high.

Zhang Mai stepped forward to pick up the letter, and handed it to Zhang Guang.

Zhang Guang began to read carefully by the light of the fire.

The closer you look, the bigger the smile on Zhang Guang's face.

Finally Zhang Guang handed the letter in his hand to Yang Maosou.

Yang Maosou looked at the letter carefully when he got it.

Zhang Guang said with a relieved smile: "It seems that I have worried too much, you see that Zhang Dan and Zhang Taishou will come to reward our army in person in a while, and will also bring [-] cavalry to support our army, hahaha! "

Yang Maosou also showed a smile on his face, it seems that he was really worrying too much...

Everyone was moved by Zhang Guang's words, and the atmosphere in the entire camp became more relaxed.

Zhang Guang ordered people to take the messenger to go to rest, and the group of himself began to discuss various defensive and offensive matters. After all, eight thousand cavalry were to be received at once. How to use this strong support can best fit this time. In addition, although Zhang Guanggui is the governor of Liangzhou, if the prefect of Tongguan comes to command in person, how will the command power be arranged?These are all things that everyone needs to discuss immediately!

At three o'clock in the afternoon (around ten o'clock in the evening)

Liangzhou Inspector Zhang Guang and Qiu Chidi Wang Yang Maosou had been waiting at the entrance of the camp for a long time. In order to welcome the army, Liangzhou Inspector Zhang Guang even did not hesitate to tear down all the fences on the side of his camp facing Tongguan, because In his opinion, if eight thousand cavalry were to enter the camp, the door was not too big, not to mention that Zhang Guang was still holding his breath because of Yang Maosou's distrust of his judgment before, and now Zhang Dan, the prefect of Tongguan, personally led troops to rescue , I really let out a bad breath for myself, as if I slapped Yang Maosou hard!It's so depressing!

So Zhang Guang tried his best to resist all opinions, even if his son came to stop him, he didn't take it seriously. In his opinion, the reinforcements from Tongguan were naturally real. How could someone easily take over the pass? !

Suddenly, a fire gradually appeared in the direction of Tongguan, and it was getting closer and closer to Zhang Guang's camp.

Zhang Guang happily said to Yang Maosou and others: "Look, Zhang Dan and Zhang Taishou are really a man who keeps his word!"

"Hahaha, yes, brother Jingwu!"

At this time, Yang Jian led a group of soldiers to Yang Maosou's side, and he also saw the so-called Tongguan defenders who came to support.

Looking at those reinforcements rushing towards his camp with torches high, Yang Jian's heart trembled for some reason!

The more Yang Jian looked at it, the more he felt that something was wrong, so he immediately said to his father: "Father, I think something is wrong. Since it is reinforcements, why do they come at a speed like a sprint when attacking? It stands to reason that they should slow down at this time. The speed is fast, and my son has been wondering why he came to reward me at midnight?"

Yang Jiantou's words seemed to be said loudly on purpose, both Zhang Guang and Zhang Mai heard it!

Zhang Guang glanced at his son Zhang Mai suspiciously, and then at Yang Maosou and his son who were also looking at him, his heart suddenly moved!

But Zhang Guang still couldn't believe it, how could there be enemy troops coming from the direction of Tongguan?Zhang Guang looked nervously at the approaching enemy cavalry, and suddenly thought: Tongguan is full of infantry, how could there be [-] cavalry?What's wrong with me?so confused? !

Zhang Guang suddenly yelled desperately: "No! It's an enemy attack! Quick! The whole army is defending, and the archers are ready to meet the enemy!"

However, due to Zhang Guang's sudden loud roar, all the sergeants knew that it was not the reinforcements from Tongguan that rushed towards them in front of them, but the iron cavalry of the Huns!

Zhang Guang's exclamation coupled with the deafening sound of horseshoes immediately caused chaos in the entire army formation, and even deserters appeared...

Facing the approaching Xiongnu iron cavalry, Zhang Guang realized that the fence that he could rely on to resist had also been dismantled by himself... and his soldiers were already in a panic!

Yang Jiantou hurriedly protected his father and went to the cavalry camp with Zhang's father and son. Yang Jiantou knew that as long as he could reach the cavalry camp quickly, he still had hope to evacuate quickly, otherwise everything would be over!

Finally, the enemy's iron cavalry had quickly entered Zhang Guang's camp, and the torches were constantly thrown at all kinds of things in the camp. It didn't take long for the entire camp to be set alight!

Zhang Yang's allied forces in the camp were constantly hacked and killed by the enemy. Due to Zhang Guang's underestimation of the enemy, many soldiers in the camp had no time to fight back and were killed by the cavalry who quickly interspersed. The camp was full of wailing and fighting sounds .

Yang Jiantou led a team of cavalry and quickly evacuated the camp with Zhang's father and son and his father Yang Maosou. In desperation, Yang Jiantou and the others had to flee in the direction of Dayao Town, and then tried their best to go to Ningshan County (Ningshan County is located in the northwest of Ankang City, at the southern foot of the middle section of the Qinling Mountains. It has a north subtropical humid climate. It is the transition zone of the north-south climate in my country and the watershed of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River system.) Now there is no possibility of fighting again. Tongguan fell, His own troops are already in a situation where they are under attack from both sides....

And in the camp of Zhang Yang's allied forces, a huge "Zhao character banner" has already been flying!
