Chapter five hundred and ninety seventh: breaking into the east of the river
After a heavy defeat, Delhi Chinan suddenly realized a cruel reality, that is, the right military guard on the opposite side was obviously prepared to deal with them, and did not go into battle in a hurry. Whether it was the semi-permanent military camp in front of him, it also included the various traps reported by Ashidula after returning to deal with cavalry raids in the rear camp.
I'm afraid he can't take down the hard bones in front of him. Delhi Chinan knew that the Tubo army's ability to attack was far from enough. Before a large camp with sufficient preparation, even if they were bleeding from the head, they might not have a good result.
What worried him even more was where the nearly 10,000 cavalry of the Right Martial Guard went?
The direct cavalry of Zhang Jia of the Right Martial Guard was formed with the Khitan cavalry as the core and had extremely strong combat power. Another cavalry led by Li De came from the direct cavalry of Li Ze. It is not necessary to say that the combat power was. Such a well-equipped cavalry team disappeared without a trace, which made Delhi Chinan frightened.
There are ways to deal with the knives that are exposed. Those hidden knives make the dormitory uneasy. No one knows when or in what way he will stab him.
If it is stabbed into a fatal place at once, it would be awful.
No matter what kind of attack, it is always the most fierce at the beginning, but after being hit by a headache, you don’t want to regain your face or not, and you always have to stop and lick your wounds and accumulate strength.
The same is true before us. During the first day of the attack, after the heavy losses of Delhi Chinan, in the next few days, every attack was brief, and more cavalry were sent to detour across the Yellow River, but they did not try to attack the camp again and did not dare to leave the headquarters too far. If they had followed the practice of Tiande, they could have plundered all directions and robbed the local people without scrupulously.
But here, they dare not.
The missing Right Martial Guard's nearly 10,000 cavalrymen were like a sharp sword hanging over their heads, and they would fall down at no time. Once a large number of cavalry were dispersed and unable to concentrate in time, the sudden attack of the Right Martial Guard's cavalry would become their nightmare.
In the next few days, Delhi Chixiang had been plotting a trap. The cavalry sent out seemed to have little contact with each other, but they intentionally or unintentionally formed a large encirclement along the Tubo camp. If the cavalry of the Right Martial Guard attacked, they would fall directly into the trap.
But nothing.
The cavalry of the Right Martial Guard did not come.
There was not much movement in Zhang Jia's camp on the other side. As long as the Tubo people didn't fight, they would stay quietly in the camp.
This is abnormal.
Delhi Chinan felt that something must have happened that he didn't know.
Until the sixth day, the messenger of Zhongshoucheng rushed over and all the mysteries were finally solved, but they were the one that Chinan Delhi was the most unacceptable.
Eight thousand cavalrymen of the Right Martial Guard detoured the desert and raided the Xishoujiang City, stationed at Xishoujiang City, and guarded everyone's retreat. The Thorbud lost a lot, and tens of thousands of people escaped.
There were originally nearly 5,000 people who escaped from Xishoujiang City, but during the hundreds of miles from Xishoujiang City to Zhongshoujiang City, without any supplies, the weak and injured people of these people either fell behind in the bad weather or did not survive and died.
The loss of Xishoujiang City was like a blow and hit Chinan, Astula, Peng Fang and others heavily on the heads of Chinan, Ashila, and Peng Fang.
"Return to Zhongshoucheng immediately." Peng Fang suggested with a pale face.
Delhi Chinan glanced at him and sneered: "Do you go back and become a turtle in the middle of the man? Obviously, Zhenzhou has been prepared for this war, and it is not as unexpected as we imagined. That is why Zhang Jia's right Wugu is waiting for us here, and Li De's cavalry detours the desert to raid Xishoujiang City. God knows how many Tang troops will be rushing to us next, returning to Zhongshoujiang City, and Ran Ran is surrounded by the Tang army?"
Peng Fang swallowed, if he had known this, why would he have been there?
"What should we do now?"
"What to do? Simple!" Delhi Chinan said with a gloomy face: "We can't get entangled here anymore. We can throw away the Right Wugu, and immediately insert into Hedong to complete the strategy set by the Dalun earlier. Only in this way can we get rid of our current predicament."
Peng Fang's face turned pale.
Delhi Chinan's words were already very clear and said that he was about to give up the whole Tiande. They could leave, including Peng Fang and his subordinates could run away, but how could the family members in Zhongshoujiang City run? More importantly, were those soldiers willing? They surrendered because they didn't want their family members to fall into the hands of the Tubo people. Now are they not worried that their family members will fall into the hands of the Right Wu Guard?
"No!" He screamed with some disrespect. It was not until he saw the disdainful gazes of Chinan, Astela and others in Delhi, that he realized his current situation.
"The army of Right Martial Guards is still above our waists. How could they let us leave so easily? It is better to concentrate our strength to defeat the Right Martial Guards first and then talk about it. Since Li De brought 8,000 cavalry outside, we have no scruples and can attack with all our strength." Peng Fang said: "If the general has such a proposal, Peng Fang is willing to be the vanguard."
Delhi Chinan laughed: "It is naturally good that Peng Shuai has such a determination. Since you have the determination to fight to the death with the Right Wu Guard, then stop the rear for us. Although Li De's cavalry is not here, we are not afraid of Zhang Jia's pursuit, but we always have to be prepared for it."
Peng Fang stared at Delhi Chinan in a daze, his face becoming more and more distorted.
"Ship Peng, there is no need to bother here anymore. We don't know how many military horses will appear in Zhenzhou. Since they have taken Xishoujiang City and cut off our retreat, it is obvious that they want to surround us and eat us in one breath. If you want to eat us, it is absolutely impossible to rely on the Right Wu Guard alone. Therefore, other troops in Zhenzhou must have been on the way. We have been fighting the Right Wu Guard camp for several days. It is not that I am discouraging, but it is difficult to fight in a short period of time. We cannot take this risk. Every day we delay here is fatal." Asdula felt a little pitiful to the surrendered general, or because he was a Tuguhun person and not a Tubo person, so he explained.
"General Ashidula said it well." Delhi Chinan said coldly: "Hedong is now in emptiness. Tens of thousands of troops attack Yinzhou and Suizhou. When we cut into Hedong, it is equivalent to stabbing them in the stomach. The rear is unstable and the front will be defeated. You must know that in Ansui, although the Dalun has assembled more than 200,000 troops and defeated Han Qi and Li Cunzhong, and all Hedong belongs to us, we will naturally have peace of mind."
"But……"
"Nothing but!" Delhi Chinan said: "Since Zhang Jia has no cavalry, he can only hide in this turtle shell. He really dares to make a fool of himself and come to chase us. That would be a good thing. I can teach him a lesson. This matter is settled, so everyone should go back and prepare!"
Peng Fang was dejected and knew that everything was irreversible.
At night, the Tubo camp was still brightly lit, and they were preparing for retreat under the eyes of the Right Wu Guard. As Chinan of Delhi expected, Zhang Jia had not moved and had no intention of coming to take advantage of the situation.
"General, Zhang Jia is indeed very careful. It seems that he will not come." Astula was a little disappointed.
"If I were to do this, I wouldn't have paid attention to such an obvious trap." Delhi Akanandao.
"Then, should you let the men rest and march during the day?" Astula asked.
"No, be prepared, the Tiande Army is afraid of mutiny." Delhi Chinan's face was cold, "Once Peng Fang cannot control his subordinates and the Tiande Army mutiny occurs, then..."
He made a throat-cutting gesture.
Astula nodded.
As expected by Chinan, Delhi, the remnants of the German army heard that the Xishoujiang City was taken away and they wanted to give up Tiande and follow the Tubo people to Hedong, after an uproar, the mutiny naturally happened.
Peng Fang died in the chaos.
The mutiny Tiande soldiers rushed out of the camp and wanted to escape to the direction of Zhongshoujiang City. They fell into the hands of the Tubo army that had been prepared and were killed completely.
There was a noise all night, and at dawn, the Tubo army set out toward Hedong.
On the Yellow River embankment, Lu Jing looked at the Tubo army that was leaving and looked at Zhang Jia with some confusion: "General, why don't you give it a try last night?"
"You can't try, you can't try!" Zhang Jia waved his hands repeatedly, "We don't have Li De and Yang Xing now. It's okay to guard the camp. Once we go out, we will be the target of being bullied."
"What a pity!" Lu Jing sighed: "If the General of the Central Army was here, he would have won a great victory last night."
Zhang Jia laughed: "Now we still have a great victory. Lu Jing, now we should reorganize our troops and take over the places like Zhongshoucheng. Tiande belongs to us!"
"What should I do when Hedong?" Lu Jing said with some concern.
"That's not something we should worry about." Zhang Jia spread his hands: "Li Xiang was prepared for the Hedong matters, and we are now holding Tiande in our hands."
"It turns out that Li Xiang was prepared for a long time, and I was really worried."
"I'm really worried!" Zhang Jia laughed: "How good is your body? If it's okay, go to Zhongshoujiang City?"
"Small injuries, minor injuries, there is no problem at all!" Lu Jing said repeatedly.
Zhang Jia laughed.
After controlling the entire Tiande, the prime minister finally controlled a road to the Western Regions.
In this battle, according to the prime minister's idea, he walked forward step by step.
Chapter completed!
