Chapter 602: War Chaos Hedong

Tocharo attacked Xiazhou, Laza attacked Yinzhou, and Suizhou was just a small group of Tubo soldiers and horses to carry out a limited restrained attack. After Li Cunzhong from Hedong led his troops to Suizhou, he found that Suizhou was just a fool, and Tubo's main forces were all in Yinzhou, forming an overwhelming advantage over Han Qi in terms of military strength. As a last resort, Han Qi could only take the defensive first and wait for Li Cunzhong to lead his troops back to help. So Suizhou once again formed an empty state, and neither Tubo nor Zuowu Guard invested too much force.

Li De will lead the eight thousand cavalry who have just returned from their merits to attack Suizhou.

Instead of firing a shot, they wanted to actually control Suizhou and then march towards Xiazhou. In response to Du Youcai of Xiazhou, they launched a counterattack against Tocharo together.

As soon as the reinforcements from the Right Wu Guard arrived, Du Youcai was embarrassed to retreat.

"There are a few of the eight thousand cavalry!" Li De touched his head and said, "It may not be a big problem to take down the empty Suizhou, but if you want to find trouble with Tochar, there will be a problem."

"Don't worry, you are just the vanguard." Zhang Jia smiled and said, "Li Xiang had already made a decision. Xue Chong's cavalry belonging to the Zuo Jinwu Guard was on his way back. They will also be on the Ansui battlefield in a month. They are also a total of 5,000 cavalry."

"That's about the end." Li Dedao. "But the general is preparing to march into Hedong. Will they welcome him?"

Zhang Jia laughed: "I followed behind Chinan, Delhi. Our Right Wu Guard is chasing the Tubo army. Do they welcome them?"

"There is a point that the general needs to be taken seriously." Li De thought for a while and said, "All the cavalry have left, and only infantry are left in the Right Martial Guard, and there are many cavalrymen in Chinan, Delhi. Be careful that he uses the mobility of the cavalry to kill a resurgent."

"Don't worry!" Zhang Jia said: "I just marched slowly, step by step, walk one step apart, and then consolidate the ground. I want to make Chinan Delhi feel great pressure, forcing him to attack forward regardless of everything. If he wants to shoot me back, I don't mind letting him taste the awesomeness."

The two of them looked at each other and laughed.

The pursuit is fake, but the pursuit attitude must be done. In fact, the bigger task of the Right Wu Guard is to wipe his butt. Once Xue Jun and others in Hedong are defeated by Chinan Delhi, they will inevitably fall into chaos. At this time, the Right Wu Guard army will appear, and the local order can be stabilized in time and restore the rule of the government. Of course, this government is no longer the same government.

Zhang Jia is now proud. Back then, he was cheated by Han Qi, Li Cunzhong and others. Now he has heavy troops in his hand, and the area he guards is not only Shuozhou, but also expanded to the entire Tiande Defence Zone. On the other hand, Li Cunzhong and others are already declining. After this battle, they are afraid that they will withdraw from the stage of history.

How could I be unhappy if the anger that had been silted in my heart was about to be exhausted?

It is very important to follow the right person. Zhang Jia summarized a rule. It was because he followed the right person that he had today's glory. People like Han Qi and Li Cunzhong still wanted to hold the emperor in Zhenzhou who could not move and speak to fight against Li. It would be strange if the end was not miserable.

Now that he saw the dilemma of Han Qi, Li Cunzhong and others, Zhang Jia was also shocked. He was also respectful and afraid of the young imperial chief minister of Wuyi. Such skills and such calculations, if you think about it carefully, it is really shocking.

A war to deal with the Tubo invasion was taken advantage of by Li Ze to the extreme. In the end, I am afraid that not only will the Tubo people be hit by a blow, but Han Qi and others will be beaten up. With the loss of troops and generals, Hedong will also fall into Li Ze's hands again.

Zhang Jia didn't know yet, and what he knew was only part of it. Not only Hedong, but Hezhong was also in this plan. If he knew about this, he would be even more impressed.

The next day, Li De, who had been in full swing all night, was energetic and put on the battle with his wife Liu Xiaochan again, leading 8,000 cavalry toward Suizhou, while Zhang Jia led 20,000 infantry along the footsteps of Chinan in Delhi, and slowly pressed towards Hedong. Yang Ying, another general of the Right Martial Guard, led more than 10,000 troops to control their hometowns in Tiande Defense District and Shuozhou.

At this time, thousands of cavalry of Xue Chong's Left Jinwu Guard were rushing towards this area with whipping horses. While the left and right Qianniu Guards were still making final preparations, they would take the lead in entering the battlefield.

For this northwest strategy, putting aside Li Cunchong's left Wu Guard, Li Ze also mobilized Zhang Jia's right Wu Guard, Tu Lichun's left Wei Guard, Xue Chong's left Jinwu Guard, Wang Sili's left Qianniu Guard and Liu Ruyan's right Qianniu Guard. In total, the total force also exceeded 100,000.

Tuboluo is known as 200,000 people, but the number of truly elite soldiers is at most 10,000. The others are mostly slave army, Han army and some small tribes. The combat effectiveness is very different from that of the real elite Tubo. Whether in terms of organization or logistics supply, it is completely incomparable to the Tang army with a tight organization.

However, so far, only the left and right military guards have actually been put into the battlefield, and the remaining troops are still waiting for the best opportunity.

And this opportunity is naturally the failure of Xue Jun and others in Hedong.

Hedong, Daizhou, and Delhi Chinan are also facing serious problems.

In the battle with Zhang Jia, his real losses were not too great. The main ones who died were Peng Fang's subordinates, but the occupation of Xishoujiang City was given a blow to him. Now, he has no other way out except to break through Hedong.

But what was blocking him now was more than 10,000 people gathered by Xue Jun from Hedong.

Delhi Chinan never expected this.

I originally thought that all the troops in Hedong had been attracted to Yinzhou and Suizhou and other places. Hedong was empty, and at best, some young and strong men who were temporarily organized would definitely be defeated with one blow, but I never expected that Hedong would still have nearly 10,000 elite troops.

After first arriving in Daizhou, after experiencing the skillful fighting skills of the soldiers, Chinan Delhi suddenly fell into panic.

Could it be another conspiracy?

Although Zhang Jia's 20,000 troops were huddled forward and walked up to twenty miles a day, they still put great pressure on Delhi Chinan. If he could not break Daizhou in front and Zhang Jia behind him pressed up again, he would have become the turtle among the men.

"Shenobud, Astela!" After thinking about it over and over again, Delhi Chinan finally decided to take a risk.

"You two, five thousand cavalrymen from each unit, bypass Daizhou and penetrated into the hinterland of Hedong." Delhi Chinan said solemnly: "You are going here without logistics and support. You are fighting to support the war. I need you to build the bigger the momentum, the better, and make the more chaotic Hedong the better."

"I understand." Two Tubo generals shouted to accept the order.

The deep-dive into the hinterland of Hedong burning, killing and looting made the people of Hedong panic, which not only could shake the morale of the troops stationed in Daizhou, but also affect the main force of the Hedong army in Yinzhou at this time. Of course, they also took great risks when they went deep into Hedong. Once they were trapped, it would probably not be so easy to get out.

Ten thousand Tubo cavalry left under the gaze of Xue Jun in Daizhou City.

Xue Jun fell into extreme anxiety.

In addition to his 10,000 troops, of course, various places also organized a large number of young and strong teams, but these people were not the opponents of these Tubo cavalry who were like wolves and tigers.

"I can only take a risk to fight." Xue Jun sighed and looked back at the left and right generals: "The ones who walked were the real elite Tubo. The Tubo infantry left behind were all slave army, Han army and small tribe coalition forces. Delhi Chinan wanted to lure us out of the city to fight him to the decisive battle. Whether it was a trap or not, we had to jump in."

The generals under the tent were silent, and there was no way to do so. Tens of thousands of soldiers guarding Daizhou City, so the Yefan people naturally had no way to conquer it. But when the hinterland of Hedong was in chaos, how could the soldiers under their command be calm? Taking a step back, even if they defend Daizhou City and Hedong became a piece of white land, what was the point?

Furthermore, at this time, the generals here basically came from the children of Hedong families. More than 10,000 Tubo cavalry rushed into the hinterland of Hedong. Their own families were in extreme danger. How could they not save them?

In terms of public and private, they must give up their difficult defense and go out of the city to fight Delhi Chinan.

Even if this is a trap.

Everyone was lucky enough to defeat Delhi Chinan in front of them quickly, then there would be room for anything to be saved.

If you lose?

No one thinks about this problem.

Because no one dares to think about it.

On the third day of the third month, Xue Jun led the main force out of the city and fought against Chinan, Tubo, Tubo, Delhi, Yukou.

Both sides have no way out, and winning is the only goal of both sides.

After a fierce battle for a whole day and night, Tubo general Ashidula led the cavalry back according to the pre-plan of Chinan in Delhi, and 5,000 cavalry joined the battlefield. The Hedong army suffered a great defeat and lost. Xue Jun led only more than a thousand troops to escape from the battlefield, heading towards Taiyuan, and Daizhou fell.

And with the loss of these ten thousand troops, Hedong basically had no room for counterattack.

Delhi Chinan no longer had any scruples and marched towards the hinterland of Hedong.

The Tubo cavalry divided the troops and burned, killed, looted, and did everything in Hedong. Beats and smoke were everywhere in Hedong and wailed everywhere.

At the same time, Zhang Jia's 20,000 Right Martial Guards suddenly accelerated their pace and stepped into the Hedong area. The first step was to occupy Daizhou.

In the river, Tu Lichun's Zuowei Guard also immediately set off, and the cavalry took the lead in entering the Hedong area. After the Left Wei Guard cavalry with more than 5,000 people entered Hedong, they only did one thing, which was to protect a passage from the river to Yinzhou, so that the Hezhong area could provide the necessary food and grass to Han Qi's troops in Yinzhou, and ensure that Han Qi's troops could still form a confrontation with Laza in Yinzhou.

After the main force of the Tubo cavalry was plundering in Hedong, it gradually moved its main force to this passage and started a battle with Tu Lichun.

Their purpose is only one, to destroy the import of food and grass into Yinzhou.
