Chapter 133: One ride is worth a thousand

……

"Yu Chigong!"

"His Majesty!"

"I order you to be the commander-in-chief of the Jingzhou Road Army, to guard Jingyang and resist the invasion of the Turks!"

"Wei Chen obeys your orders."

After Li Shimin gave the order, he turned his gaze to the civil and military officials of the palace, and finally landed on Wei Zheng: "Wei Zheng, where is Wu Wen now?"

Wei Zheng stepped forward and replied, "Wu Wen has been recuperating at home recently due to illness."

"Still claiming to be sick? How long has he been ill? How many times has he been to the Youwu Guard?" Li Shimin scolded angrily.

"Go and tell him to stop pretending to be sick, take his Right Guard with him, and go to Jingyang immediately. If the Turkic army arrives at Chang'an, then he won't have to pretend to be sick anymore!"

"Wei Chen takes orders!"

Wei Zheng bid farewell to Li Shimin and went directly to Wu Wen's residence.

Boom boom boom!
He went up and knocked on the door.

"Who?"

The door was opened, and Fugui saw that it was Wei Zheng, and immediately welcomed him into the house with a smile.

Then, he walked quickly to the outside of the training room and reminded softly, "Sir, Shangshu Zuocheng is here."

After a while, Wu Wen's voice came from inside the room: "Got it, you entertain him first."

Fugui left and served tea to Wei Zheng.

"Why hasn't Wu Wen come yet?"

Wei Zheng asked anxiously.

"My young master is practicing. He will be here soon. Please wait for a moment." Fugui replied with a smile.

Wei Zheng picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and waited quietly.

Soon, Wu Wen came up to him and said with an apologetic smile, "Uncle Wei, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."

Wei Zheng said straight to the point: "Wu Wen, the court is in big trouble this time."

Seeing the usually steady Wei Zheng so anxious, Wu Wen asked curiously, "What's so urgent?"

Wei Zheng quickly replied: "The Turkic Khan Jie Li is leading 200,000 cavalrymen from Jingzhou and will arrive in Chang'an soon."

"His Majesty orders you to lead the Right Guard and follow Yuchi Gong, the commander-in-chief of the Jingzhou Road, to Jingyang to resist the invasion of the Turks."

Hearing this, Wu Wen nodded slightly, thinking to himself: I didn't expect that the timeline has changed, Li Shimin has ascended the throne ahead of time, and the Turks are still invading.

However, in Wu Wen's opinion, this is not a difficult task, because with Li Shimin's ability, he can easily solve it quickly and directly wipe out the Turks in a few years.

Seeing that he was not in a hurry, Wei Zheng said again: "The Turks are coming with great force this time. If we cannot repel them as soon as possible, they will inevitably cause great damage to the Tang Dynasty. By then, I don't know how many people will be displaced."

Hearing this, Wu Wen's calm expression suddenly changed.

"I will lead the troops to set out immediately."

The military situation was urgent, so Wu Wen quickly packed up his luggage and went to the Youwuwei Camp, taking two thousand soldiers with him, and followed Yuchi Gong to Jingyang.

Jingyang is less than forty miles away from Chang'an City. This place must not be lost, otherwise the Turkic troops will march directly to the city of Chang'an.

However, when Wu Wen arrived, the vanguard of the Turks had already arrived and engaged in battle with local officers and soldiers.

"Soldiers, follow me!"

Yuchi Gong led his troops forward without saying a word.

Wu Wen, who was on the flank, led the Right Guard to observe the battlefield situation first, and then locked the position of the enemy's vanguard general.

"Wu Xianzi, why are you still hesitating? Why don't you lead us forward?"

Cheng Chumo, a captain under Wu Wen, asked sternly.

Wu Wen just glanced at him sideways. This Cheng Chumo was Cheng Yaojin's eldest son. When Cheng Yaojin was not in the Right Guard, almost all matters were handled by him.

"Remember, I am the Lieutenant General of the Right Guard. Please be aware of your identity when you talk to me next time."

Wu Wen said this calmly, and Cheng Chumo immediately shut up, but his face still looked unconvinced. After determining the target, Wu Wen raised his spear, pointed it forward, and shouted in a low voice: "Follow me!"

驾~
On the battlefield.

The Youwu Guard led by Wu Wen was like a sharp knife, piercing straight into the Turkic army.

I saw him waving the spear in his hand, the tip of the spear flashing like stars, and every time the cold light flashed, a Turkic soldier fell down.

Behind him, Cheng Chumo couldn't help but secretly marvel at Wu Wen's bravery.

"Follow me!"

On the battlefield, Wu Wen shouted again, kicked his feet, and his mount rushed forward like an arrow.

The soldiers of the Right Guard followed closely behind, charging all the way and were unstoppable.

At this time, the general of the Turkic vanguard army, Ashdewu Meichu, looked up and saw Wu Wenru rushing towards him like a killing god, and was suddenly shocked.

He hurriedly ordered his cavalry to resist, while he himself kept retreating, trying to distance himself from Wu Wen.

However, the Right Guard led by Wu Wen was unstoppable and overcame all obstacles along the way, and could not be resisted at all.

Asdewu Meichu saw Wu Wen's fierce momentum and became more and more panicked.

He brandished the scimitar in his hand and commanded his cavalry to fight to the death, but Wu Wen's attack was too fierce and he cut a bloody path.

Wu Wen held the spear in his hand, like a dragon emerging from the sea, and every swing of the spear brought with it a sharp wind.

The Turkic cavalry fell off their horses one after another under his spear, and blood splattered on the spot.

Ashdewu roared without a sound, his voice trembling slightly. His eyes were wide open, staring at Wu Wen's figure, trying to find any flaws.

~
Suddenly, the warhorse under Wu Wen lost its front hoof and fell violently to the ground.

Seeing this, Ashidewu Meichu's eyes suddenly showed joy, thinking that this was a godsend opportunity, and commanded more people to rush towards Wu Wen.

"Wuxianzi!"

Just as Cheng Chumo behind him was shouting in worry, Wu Wen immediately showed his amazing reaction and skills.

He just stepped on the horse's back with both feet, and flew into the air. He continued to wave the spear in his hand, constantly reaping the lives of the Turkic soldiers under him.

When he landed, his body was still agile, like a cheetah hunting, and he went straight to Ashdewumeichu.

The spear drew silver arcs in the air, and each swing took the life of a Turkic soldier.

Behind him, the soldiers of the Right Guard followed closely, their morale was high, and their shouts of killing shook the earth.

Ashdewu Meichu was terrified when he saw this.

He knew very well that he was no match for Wu Wen, so he turned around and tried to escape.

However, would Wu Wen let him escape so easily?

He leaped up suddenly, and the spear drew a dazzling cold light in the air, pointing directly at Ashidewu Meichu's back.

Asdewu didn't feel the murderous intent behind him and quickly dodged to the side.

But Wu Wen's spear seemed to be locked on him and he kept chasing him.

He quickly swung his sword to block, but Wu Wen's spear was unstoppable and pierced through his scimitar directly, continuing to stab towards his chest.

"what!"

Ashdewu didn't even utter a scream as Wu Wen's spear pierced his chest.

He stared at Wu Wen with eyes wide open in disbelief, as if to say, "How is this possible?"

Then, his body fell down weakly and landed beside the warhorse.

As Ashdewu fell down, the morale of the Turkic cavalry collapsed instantly.

The army was defeated and fled in all directions.

The Right Guard, led by Wu Wen, continued to pursue the victory.
