Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 965

Zhang Dawei suddenly felt very boring, because when he was working hard, he suddenly discovered that two sections of the city wall of Wu Shengjun had been bombed and collapsed, and not long after that, a city gate was also opened from the inside. The disheveled people rushed out like lunatics, and the wide open city gate saved them the time to attack the city wall. Zhang Dawei, who took the lead and rushed into the Wu Sheng army, did not meet any strong resistance. Anduo's elite soldiers turned into stragglers. They didn't encounter any organized troops at all. They hacked for a while, and with the rush of the brigade, he found that he couldn't find his opponent.

Anduo Xiagao only gathered less than 2000 people, and the rest of them were all thrown into chaos and disappeared.

Anduo blindly stared at the battlefield, finally, he found a gap, and without hesitation, he immediately ordered: "Go, charge out from the west!" The two thousand people who had been preparing for a long time shouted and charged at the same time. go out.

Zhang Dawei sneered, and without waiting for his order, the two brigade commanders chased after him with some of their troops screaming.Apparently they all knew that only Anduo Zaigao and the 2000 troops were left with the greatest credit for this battle.However, before the two cavalry brigade commanders of the Azure Dragon Legion led their men to catch up, there was a loud explosion, and Anduo Xiagao, who was running in the forefront, was blown into pieces with his men and his horse.The dozens of cavalrymen and horses who followed Anduo Xiagao were also injured. The most important thing was that the horses were frightened and ran around. The two brigade commanders took the opportunity to surround them and blocked the two. The escape route of thousands of Tubo cavalry.

There were shouts of killing, and after half a stick of incense, most of the 500 or so Tubo cavalry were beheaded, and only more than [-] people knelt down and surrendered.

.........

.........

At the same time, the [-] soldiers of the special brigade led by Gao Wuyang swept across like a torrent, and all the small tribes of the Anduo tribe within a hundred miles were wiped out. Gao Wuyang ordered to kill as many fighters as possible from these tribes , never let them go, but for the ordinary Tubo herdsmen, they let them all go, but they robbed them of their food, killed their livestock, burned their tents, and then left them like Hehuang Flee deep in the hinterland of the Tubo Kingdom.Over the past few days, no less than [-] people from the Anduo tribe fled to the direction of Qingtang City, and most of them were old, weak, women and children.

These small tribes only have a population of about a thousand tents at most, and they are as vulnerable as grass chickens and dogs in front of the [-] special brigade led by Gao Wuyang. Moreover, the incident happened suddenly, and the largest tribe warrior in these tribes only has nearly a thousand people. , and he was unprepared, so he was completely defeated at the first touch, and fell into the situation where he was allowed to be slaughtered by the special brigade.Moreover, the difference in equipment between the two sides is also too great. The special brigade is all equipped with steel armor, steel knives and fast crossbows, while most of these tribal fighters only have simple leather armor, and the weapons in their hands have been used for many years. The only ones that can compete with Xiangfu Kingdom or Song Kingdom in terms of equipment are the direct troops of Yingcheng Linbuchi and a small number of direct tribe troops of major tribes. As for the ordinary Tubo tribes, the equipment is very different, and even What's more, Xiangfu Kingdom's current weapons and equipment have even surpassed that of Song Dynasty and Liao Kingdom.

"Happy!" Gao Wuyang stood on the horse, looking at the Tubo herdsmen scurrying in the distance, he felt unspeakably happy. A few days ago when they came to Lanzhou, they saw being burned, killed, looted, and captured by the Tubo people. The miserable appearance of the common people has long been full of anger, especially when they think of the White Tiger Army being deceived by Ando's tricks and almost annihilating the whole army, their hearts are even more murderous.

At this time, the camp of a tribe in front of them was burning with raging fire, black smoke covered the sky, and the corpses scattered all over the place showed that this tribe had once made tenacious resistance. In fact, this tribe was exterminated by the Ando tribe. It was the largest tribe outside of Wu Shengjun's headquarters, so Gao Wuyang personally brought [-] warriors to make a surprise attack.

"Vice Captain Gao, why did you let these Tubo women and children go?" A middle-aged man with red eyes, even a little crazy, came to Gao Wuyang and said, wearing brigade commander's armor and brigade commander's military decoration.

Gao Wuyang glanced at him and said: "Brigade Commander Wen, I know that your White Tiger Legion and the Ando Department have a deep blood feud, and I also know that your army commander, chief of staff, and the soldiers of the people all died in the hands of the Ando Department. But no Killing women and children is a rule set by His Majesty himself, do you even want to disobey His Majesty's will?"

The middle-aged man known as the head of the cultural brigade changed his face, and immediately said: "I dare not."

Gao Wuyang performed extremely well in the last battle with the Liao army and made great contributions. Later, he did a great job in the formation of Xiangfu Military Academy and the training of officers. Be the deputy captain.But the special brigade is at the army level, Bai Canghai is very expensive as the general of Zhendong, and since Gao Wuyang is the deputy captain, he was directly promoted from the original deputy brigade level to the deputy army level major general.It is one level higher than the brigade commander of the Metropolitan School.

That's right, the person Gao Wuyang called Brigadier Wen was none other than Wen Zitao, commander of the Second Cavalry Brigade of the White Tiger Legion. When Lanzhou City was broken, Fu Hongliang, the Military Judiciary of the White Tiger Legion, took Yang Yanguang's head to exchange for the people of Lanzhou City not to be slaughtered. , and attracted the attention of the Tubo army, and Wen Zitao led the last remaining [-] cavalry of the [-] White Tiger Army stationed in Lanzhou to break through and escape.Later, I met the special brigade, and I have been working with the special brigade these days, and today I finally got revenge. Wen Zitao and his [-] cavalry were the most crazy people to kill.

Gao Wuyang knew that the hatred in Wen Zitao's heart was still unsolved, and worried that he would do something stupid, so he said: "Besides, it was General Zhu Guo who sent these people to the Hehuang area from Liangzhou to Haidongqing a few days ago. The military order that came over. There is a deep meaning in it."

Wen Zitao couldn't help being surprised when he heard this, and asked, "Why?"

Gao Wuyang also looked puzzled, and said: "I only know that Han Tao led [-] cavalry to go to Hehuangqingtang City, the old nest of the Tubo people, under the order of the general. It is probably related to this matter, but the specific reason , I don't know either. However, it will come to light in a few days."

At Dafengkou, just after noon, a messenger came galloping on horseback. The cavalryman let go of the reins, jumped off his horse, ran to five steps in front of Yang Yanqing and stood at attention. The head of the legion has captured Wu Sheng's army yesterday, and the special brigade has wiped out all the security departments. The head of the legion will lead [-] cavalry to garrison Wu Sheng's army to guard against the Tubo people in Hehuang and the Song army in Qinzhou."

While talking, the messenger handed a note to Yang Yanqing, who read it and handed it to Lu Fengyun, the commander of the Second Brigade of the Qinglong Army Infantry.On it was Zhang Dawei's handwriting. He informed Yang Yanqing's troops that the grain, grass, and luggage in Wusheng Army City were piled up like mountains, and now all of them have fallen into the hands of their Qinglong Army.The Tubo army in Lanzhou has been completely deprived of food and retreat.

Yang Yanqing ordered to inform the whole army of the news, and shouts of "Mighty!" came from outside soon, and the soldiers of this brigade raised their arms and shouted excitedly.For a while, morale was high.

"How many Tubo tribal armies have we defeated, ten thousand?" Lu Fengyun looked ahead, there was no Tubo army to attack for a long time.

Yang Yanqing said with a smile: "There are not 5000, but there are 4000. According to the information of the Ministry of Security, the 4000 tribal troops who originally escorted the food and grass plus the [-] people sent by Yingcheng Lin Buchi. However, although we After defeating them wave after wave, only about [-] of them were killed. The other [-] people obviously retreated in spite of the difficulties, and they would never attack us again until Ying Cheng Lin Bu Chi sent his elite troops. gone."

After a pause, Yang Yanqing said with a serious face: "So we may encounter a tough battle at any time, tell the soldiers below, don't underestimate the enemy just because they easily repelled the Tubo people's attack these two days."

Lanzhou city.

"What, the 5000 people from Dashibu and Xiaoshibu were easily defeated by the enemy at Dafengkou." Ying Chenglin stood up from his seat violently, his face becoming extremely ugly.Because it reminded him of what Huangfutong told him yesterday about the news that the Qinglong Legion was not within the border of the Xiangfu Kingdom.Now thinking of the defeat at Dafengkou again, he came to a very bad judgment that it was the Azure Dragon Army that blocked Dafengkou.

Yingcheng Lin Buchi knew very well that from Wusheng Army to Lanzhou, the road to transport food and grass must pass through Dafengkou, which means that the Azure Dragon Army cut off his lifeline.Now the food and grass that can be searched in Lanzhou has been almost consumed, and the food and grass hoarded in Lanzhou city can only be used by them for three months at most.If they can't defeat the Azure Dragon Army within three months, take back Dafengkou, and re-open the food road between Wu Shengjun and Lanzhou, they will be trapped alive.

"No, after Dafengkou was occupied by the Xiangfu army, the road was cut off by the Azure Dragon Army. It has been more than two days now. Anduo Gao of the Wu Sheng Army couldn't wait for the escort team to return for more than two days. Suspicion arises, it is impossible not to know that there is a problem with the grain road. However, no troops from the Anduo Department have been seen from the other side of the Dafengkou to appear or attack. Could it be that Wu Shengjun and the Ando Department..."

Thinking of this, Ying Cheng Lin Buchi's face turned pale.

At this moment, Huangfu came in a hurry, and said with an extremely ugly face as soon as he entered the door: "Your Excellency, Yingcheng Linbu, I just got the exact news from the Song Wei Mansion that Zhang Dawei of the Qinglong Army led a surprise attack on Wu Shengjun. The world is so blind." With the death of Gaozhan, the Wusheng Army has fallen into the hands of Gu Qinglong Army, and all the tribes of Anduobu have been wiped out by the joint special brigade and Qinglong Army. Now our food and grass are cut off, and the way back is blocked. The situation has reached the point of urgency. The trick..."
