Tang Dynasty: After dominating Rome, I counterattacked Chang'an

Chapter 130 The war begins, and all the games are played!

Then he walked out of the palace, and what came into view were the thousands of people from the inner city holding weapons.

The Tang Dynasty attacked from both sides at the same time, and all the people in the city were soldiers!

Mainly the elderly, the weak, women and children.

It’s not that there are no men, but most of the men and pillars of their families have joined the army, the Dayan Self-Defense Army.

The remaining old, weak, women and children, when they learned that Baiyun City did not have enough soldiers, all volunteered to take up arms to protect this hard-earned paradise for losers, to protect Baiyun City, and to protect... this young man...
Wherever Li Chengdao saw, he saw determined looks.

Yes!

Determined, they are always so determined.

They are obviously a bunch of weaklings. Normally, some of them would hesitate for a long time or even dare not kill a chicken, but they always want to protect... protect him, the one who can go in and out of the enemy's camp seven times.

They always think that he is weak...
He needs to be protected, more than anyone else...
…….….….….….
Eighth day.

Forgotten Valley.

"General Kaiyang, Fengtou Gaoyuan is in a hurry. The Tang army here has not made any moves. Should we go back to Fengtou Plateau for assistance?"

"Don't move, continue to guard the Forgotten Valley!"

"But! General Kaiyang, too many brothers died in Fengtou Plateau. We are only sending some of them back..."

“Don’t move!!”

"Yes! General Kaiyang..."

The commander of Kaiyang Camp who made the suggestion was halfway through his words when he saw General Kaiyang turn around. He saw a pair of eyes filled with tears.

Then, that firm voice came again.

"The defenders here, don't move!!"

at the same time.

Outside the Forgotten Valley.

"Brother Zhang Liang, eight days have passed, and General Cheng has not yet broken through the Fengtou Plateau defense line. It can be confirmed that it is the main force of Yan Country that is blocking them."

"So, even if there are Yan country troops in Wangchuan Canyon, they are definitely not the main force. If they are still the main force here, then they still have the main force to block General Cheng for seven days. How strong must the military force of Yan country be!"

"You know, they're not all in place yet."

Chang Sun Shunde couldn't help it any longer.

He wanted to break through the Wangchuan Canyon as soon as possible and reach the foot of Baiyun City.

Zhang Liang frowned slightly.

indeed!

Just as Changsun Shunde said, the main force of the Yan Kingdom is probably not in the Wangchuan Gorge. Their main force was in the Fengtou Plateau to block Cheng Yaojin, and they blocked him for seven days.

This is not the main force of the Yan State, so if we break through by force, there won't be much casualties.

but!
They have not been silent in the past seven days.

They sent out dozens of scouts, but they were all executed without a trace.

Changsun Shunde also used his rogue tactics, which was to pretend to be a person dressed in women's clothes, pretending to be someone who wanted to pass by, but he had lost all sound since he entered the Wangchuan Canyon.

This rogue tactic may seem nonsensical, but Zhang Liang had seen it work in previous wars.

His eldest grandson Shunde has done this kind of thing more than once or twice.

During those years of fighting for the Tang Dynasty, many similar methods were used.

They either disguised themselves as enemy reinforcements or as passing merchants. The worst case scenario was that they disguised themselves as prostitutes to lure the enemy checkpoints open.

For Chang Sun Shunde, there is no psychological pressure at all to use these gangster tactics. As the saying goes, all is fair in war. He is not afraid of anything as long as he can win.

But even if it is useful, it would not be a good reputation if this reputation gets out. Wouldn't his glorious image be ruined?

Therefore, these tactics were not spread among the people. But Zhang Liang knew!

Changsun Shunde's rogue tactics, together with his scouts, all disappeared after entering the Wangchuan Canyon.

It's as if...
Zhang Liang looked towards the Wangchuan Gorge and felt that it was like a huge mouth of the abyss, swallowing up all the enemy troops that entered there, including his and Cheng Yaojin's 10,000 troops.

"General Changsun, wait a few more days. There is no rush."

Zhang Liang spoke.

Chang Sun Shunde's eyes widened: "Do you think there are still Yan Kingdom's main forces in Wangchuan Valley?"

Zhang Liang smiled and said, "It's better to be safe than sorry. After all, we know nothing about that canyon."

Chang Sun Shunde said unhappily: "If Yan Kingdom still has its main force here, then it will be a great power that can directly confront the two elite armies of the Tang Dynasty! This is something that even Tubo finds difficult to do!"

"Let me put it this way. I think the Yan Kingdom on the Fengtou Plateau is almost unable to hold on. It only has one city, a population of more than 300,000 at most, and a maximum of 20,000 soldiers. How can it possibly withstand my 20,000 cavalry?"

"Even if we can stop them, we will need the whole country's strength, and it is even more impossible for us to have the main force here!"

Zhang Liang thought about it and agreed.

But he….
I always feel that something is wrong.

"General Changsun, please wait three more days."

Zhang Liang spoke.

Seeing that Changsun Shunde seemed about to explode, he hurriedly continued, "We've already waited for seven days, what else are left but these three days?"

"Wait another three days. With the intensity of General Cheng's attack, he will surely consume a lot of Yan country's troops in three days. By then, even if we mobilize the whole country's army, I'm afraid it will be difficult to stop our Great Tang Tiger Division!"

Zhang Liang had said so much, so Changsun Shunde had no choice but to give up.

They continued to set up camp at the original location, preparing for a general attack three days later.

As for Zhang Liang’s guess, yes, his guess was correct.

With the intensity of the attack by the 180 cavalry of the Tang Dynasty, Baiyun City, which currently has a population of only more than , will certainly have a headache. After ten days of fierce and intensive attacks, the army will certainly be completely wiped out, not to mention returning to support the Wangchuan Gorge, which has degrees.

We will attack in three days and there will be no danger.

Yes, his guess was correct...
But his opponent is... the King of Chu, and those... monsters under his command...
Three days passed.

What surprised Zhang Liang was that his people on Fengtou Plateau had not yet made a breakthrough.

In this way, the main force of Yancheng held off 20,000 Tang cavalry for ten days, which was really amazing.

"Hahaha, brother Zhang Liang, the time has come. Shouldn't we start taking action?"

"After resting for so long, the bones of my Changsun Shunde and the soldiers of the Tianji Camp are about to become loose."

Changsun Shunde laughed out loud.

Zhang Liang also smiled and said, "It's time to take action. Although the scouts still can't detect it, I think it's because Yan Country's anti-reconnaissance ability is strong, not the so-called main force."

"General Changsun, although we can attack, please let me send one thousand cavalrymen in. If they are fine, you can send the Suzaku Camp in."

Chang Sun Shunde thought about it, then nodded and said, "Okay!"

Half an hour later.

Changsun Shunde and Zhang Liang led a total of 10,000 troops and marched towards Wangchuan Gorge.

When they arrived only one mile away from Wangchuan Canyon, a thousand Youzhou riders filed in first.

They passed through the Wangchuan Gorge safely and sent cavalry back to tell Chai Shao and Cheng Yaojin that they were safe.

Zhang Sun Shunde was about to lead the Tianji Camp to set out, but Zhang Liang was still worried and sent two or three more waves of cavalry in.

Still, nothing's wrong.

In this way, he was completely relieved.
