The story of Princess Xiatang's counterattack

Chapter 659

Chapter 659

It was winter, and it was snowing heavily, and Jia Tichao attacked Liangzhou City at this time. First, because Beidi didn’t have much food. If he could get the booty, it should be enough to help Beidi survive the winter smoothly; second, it was frozen. At this time, Liangzhou City hadn't fought a battle for many years, so it was obvious that his condition would not be very good, and it would give him more chances to win.

However, Du Yi didn't pay much attention to Jati, it's just that he always wanted to grab it.

Du Yi was impatiently preparing for the battle in the army. It was snowing outside the camp and it was not easy to love to fight. He wanted to make a quick decision and take him away, so that he could go home to spend the New Year with his wife and children before the Spring Festival.

The three armies lined up neatly, and Du Yi led the central army to encircle and attack. He wanted to surround Beidi's main force and beat the dogs behind closed doors, but he didn't want to disperse the troops and immediately put himself in a passive position.

Seeing Du Yi's scattered troops, Suo Jiati was secretly happy, concentrated his troops to face Du Yi, turned a blind eye to the attacks from the other three routes, and led the whole army to charge forward, only resisting the central route army led by Du Yi.

The Beidi soldiers were high-spirited. The army, which has relied on invading other countries for a living for many years, carried a natural evil spirit on it.

The Central Route Army led by Du Yi was originally high-spirited, but he didn't want the other side to be more passionate than them. Now that he was overwhelmed, not only the morale of the army was shaken, but even Du Yi's heart was a little bit drummed.

Gati aimed the main forces at Du Yi. For the attacks of the other three armies, he only sent 5000 troops to fight. These 5000 troops are equivalent to death squads in a sense. The only thing that can minimize their losses is the The speed at which the Chinese army was eliminated was added.

Only if he captures Du Yi as soon as possible, can the 5000 troops be kept as much as possible.

It is not common for someone as desperate as Jade to put all his eggs in one basket. It is not common for Jati to be so desperate, and he charged desperately. One by one, the heads were cut off by his sharp machete. Too many thoughts, only knowing that the number of your own army is not dominant, and a quick battle is the kingly way.

On this point, Juan Jiati and Du Yi have the same idea.

The number of the Central Route Army led by Du Yi decreased rapidly, and a large number of soldiers fell down. Only then did Du Yi realize what kind of team he was facing.

Because of his contempt for Beidi, Du Yi did not make much preparations before the battle. Therefore, when Juan Jiati's machete slashed at his head, Du Yi remembered General Yun Qixian's words. Never underestimate the enemy, no matter how weak the enemy looks.

When Du Yi's head was cut off, the entire Tianqi army seemed to have lost their senses. They looked inconceivably at the extremely excited Juan Jiati who was holding Du Yi's head high. He shouted some words they could not understand. Beidi's army... more boiling.

The next result is not so difficult to predict. When Beidi turned around to fight the other three teams, the leading lieutenant was frightened by the scene of Du Yi being killed. Turned from offense to defense, and there was a faint tendency to lead the team to retreat.

Interestingly, not all the troops think so.

The Liangzhou garrison, which was originally overwhelming in number, has lost its previous momentum after seeing the top general be beheaded by Tengjiati.

Among them, Lin Rukai on the North Road was the least courageous. He had the aura of a general when he led his troops to attack before, but his actions gradually became sluggish later, and gradually he could not resist Beidi's attack.

The drums behind Beidi became louder and louder, and the Beidi soldiers on the horse kept howling and running towards them with scimitars. All the sounds were like a reminder to the ears of the Liangzhou garrison, and each of them was frightened. I can barely lift my knife.

Finally, Lin Rukai couldn't stand the fear in his heart anymore, and ordered to retreat.

He saw that there was a gap on his side, and immediately sent troops to chase and fight. The North Army led by Lin Rukai was severely injured, and the order to retreat was accompanied by screams, making the troops on the North Road scramble to escape, killing each other during the period. Many people also died.

Of the four garrisons originally dispatched from Liangzhou City, only two came back intact. The troops led by Du Yi were all killed, and Lin Rukai's troops barely returned.

Although the magistrate of Liangzhou was worried at first, the strength of his country was in front of his eyes. General Du Yi personally led the troops out of the city to fight. He was also a lieutenant general under General Yun Qixian. He will be commissioned by General Yun Qixian to be a general who receives customs.

If it was said to lose, the prefect of Liangzhou probably wouldn't even think about it.

However, the result was so unexpected. After seeing these remnant soldiers returning to the city and hearing about the war, the Liangzhou prefect wrote three letters overnight, pleading guilty and asking the court to send troops.

If no one came, he was afraid that Liangzhou City would be breached.

After a victorious battle, Juan Jiati led troops to garrison outside the city of Liangzhou. He originally only wanted some benefits, but suddenly changed his mind.

The dispatch of troops this time was just to test Tianqi's strength, but what he didn't expect was that the guarding army of Tianqi with such a vast territory was so vulnerable.

Juan Jiati made an impromptu decision to capture Liangzhou City!

At dawn the next day, Tongan Jiati led his troops to attack the city. Although he didn't know the word strike while the iron was hot, he also knew the principle of eating while it was hot. Yesterday's victory was just a reassurance for his generals. At the same time, Liangzhou city The defenders knew how powerful they were, and they were already afraid of him. Now, stepping up the siege will get twice the result with half the effort. He strives to break the city within three days!
In yesterday's battle, the loss was only [-], and Jati didn't talk about any strategy, and directly concentrated his forces to attack the city.

Defending the city is much easier than fighting directly. The arrows, crossbows, oranges, wood and stones rained down on Beidi soldiers on the gate tower. Compared with yesterday's battle, there seemed to be more casualties during Beidi's siege.

He ordered to retreat first, he didn't expect that the defenders would still have such a force. He originally wanted to break through Liangzhou City in one go, but he realized that the situation seemed not so optimistic.

Wanting to break through Liangzhou City seems to be a matter of using one's brains.

It took only two days to travel [-] Li from Liangzhou to the capital. At that time, the first emperor had just come into power, and General Yun Qixian had already been named a general when the Supreme Emperor was in power.

Since the founding of Tianqi, the frontiers have been disturbed frequently. Countless brave generals have paid the price of their lives for Tianqi's safety, and the Yun family is full of loyalty. They have protected Tianqi's soldiers since their ancestors. In his life, he led troops to guard the frontier several times, and made indelible contributions to the consolidation of Tianqi Jiangshan.

At this time, he had just returned to Beijing, and when he heard that Beidi had come to invade, he immediately asked for orders to quell the chaos. Old Master Yun had a very violent temper when he was young, and of course, the same is true when he is old.

The first emperor made a decree, and Yun Qi led the troops to Liangzhou City.

Yun Qixian led his troops there immediately, and marched all the way. It was seven days after he arrived in Liangzhou. On this day, the gate of Liangzhou City was about to be breached.

He is very smart, he will immediately find out how to deal with it when he suffers a loss, since the Tianqi defenders are condescending and can easily throw stones and arrows, then he will wipe out all the people above.

Therefore, he, who originally concentrated his forces to attack the city, divided his troops into two groups, one to eliminate the archers and slingers on the tower, and the other to break through the city.

It didn't go well at first, but Beidi soldiers relied on their vigor and continuous improvement methods, and finally most of the soldiers guarding the city on the tower were eliminated, and they were about to break the city and invade.

The prefect of Liangzhou had blisters all over his face and mouth, it was urgent.

At this juncture, Yun Qixian led his troops into Liangzhou.

In the eyes of the prefect of Liangzhou, this army was like a god descending. It was the famous General Yun Qixian, and the prefect of Liangzhou knelt down to greet them with tears in his eyes. Liangzhou was saved.

Before Yun Qixian's leader entered Liangzhou City, he ordered the large army to rest and recharge their batteries. Now after entering the city, Yun Qixian saw the miserable situation of the defenders at the city gate, and immediately sent troops to fight. Defending the city is no longer feasible. , and then guarding the city gate is tantamount to sitting and waiting to die.

He was attacking the city vigorously, but he didn't expect that the gate of the city was suddenly opened, and the team sent to attack the city retreated again and again, and was caught off guard by a group of people who came out of the city.

Suojiati, who had originally focused his attention on the city wall, immediately led the troops to support him. If the previous situation was Beidi chasing Tianqi to fight, now Tianqi is chasing Beidi to fight.

No matter how brave and skilled Beidi was, he had experienced a large-scale battle for the first time, and he had somewhat lost in the previous siege battles, and he had accumulated a lot of mental and physical fatigue.

The only thing that makes the Beidi army more gratified is that the living environment is much more comfortable than in their own country.

It's not that the place where they live is gorgeous, but that the climate is much more pleasant than the place where they originally lived.

Even if it snows, it is not as cold as Beidi.

Tongda Jiati led troops to support, and found that a well-equipped army came out of Liangzhou City, and its combat effectiveness was not a star and a half stronger than the previous garrison. Tongda Jiati had a bad premonition in his heart.

Yun Qixian did not completely disperse the troops. He ordered his lieutenant to attack from the left flank, and he led the army to attack from the right flank. The two men each led 2 horses to disperse the Beidi army.

Yun Qixian took the lead and killed the enemy with all his strength. The general took the lead bravely, and the soldiers fought desperately. All of them fought against a hundred. Yun Qixian jumped on his horse and shot fiercely, killing dozens of enemy troops in a row. The morale of General Tianqi was even higher.

The Beidi soldiers couldn't resist, and they were defeated one after another.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Suojiati immediately issued an order to retreat. If the battle continued, Beidi would suffer heavy losses.

The Beidi army, which was originally high-spirited and wanted to occupy Liangzhou City, was finally defeated and fled. This was also the first time that Yun Qixian and Juan Jiati met.

In the following 30 years, the two fought countless times. It was precisely because Beidi sent troops to attack Tianqi time and time again that the grown-up Xia Houxiang and Tongda Yi, the son of Tongda Jiati, gradually became insoluble enemies on the battlefield.
