Chapter 159 Advance

More than a thousand cavalrymen reinforced themselves to Liulingou Village, Xu Wuji, Chen Zixiao, Yang Qiye and others on the north side of Qizi Mountain also noticed them at the Qizi Mountain camp at the first time.

The 100,000 soldiers and civilians in Taiyuan were weak, and most of them were civilians. If you want to retreat into the Lingjinggou Gorge safely and orderly, you must ensure that the flanks are not disturbed by enemy cavalry.

The Chushan cavalry advanced eastward to Taiyuan, established defenses in Qizishan in the north of Tianmen Mountain, blocking Xinzhou and the Chihu cavalry that may be reinforced later were fundamentally guaranteed whether the raid of Taiyuan could achieve final victory.

When the Chushan cavalry left Tianmen Pass and attacked south at snowy night, Chen Zixiao immediately took more than 500 Tianxiong soldiers to the chess plate north. The next day, Yang Qiye also led his troops to retreat from the battlefield in the south. Today, the few small groups of rebels who had first withdrawn from the Luliang army were also added to the chess mountain camp.

Because of the importance of this defense line, Xu Wuli rushed over to take charge and control the generals.

"A small number of enemy scouts have crossed the mountains to the east and monitored the movements in the northern city of Taiyuan. We have no way to intercept them all. In the south, the Han army camp in Yunzhou organized a night battle, and the movement will not be small. The news will reach the north of Qizi Mountain. This enemy cavalry is likely to organize immediately and launch an assault on our side."

Chen Zixiao stood on the simple looking building made of a few fir trees, crossed a sparse forest, looked at the enemy in the north, looked up at the sky, and said to Xu Wuji and Yang Qiye,

"We must also be prepared for night battle interception, and we must not let the large enemy cavalry go to the south!"

"These cavalry came from Datong to rescue. From the earliest possible news they could get in Datong, they traveled 450 miles in three days and two nights. If they included the hesitation and delays they might have, the time for more than a thousand cavalry to catch this road may be shorter than we imagined. The soldiers and horses were more tired. It is hard to imagine that they would attack us at night before they figured out the situation..." Yang Qiye felt that at night, they should be more careful about Yin Chao sending troops from the south of Taiyuan City to launch an offensive from the northeast corner of Taiyuan City and the northwest corner of the northwest corner, rather than worrying that the tired cavalry in the north would launch a night attack at the same time.

Judging from the current reconnaissance, the cavalry team that Chihu people reinforced were also hurried into Liulingou Village to rest. In such a hurry, most of them probably lie down and can't wake up even if they shout?

"There are not many cavalry left behind in Datong, but most of them follow the elite combat power of the Chihu people who fought in the east and west for many years. The soldiers were hard-working and resilient, and were not under the Chushan cavalry. The fall of the country in Dayan was really a loss." Chen Zixiao sighed and said.

More than 1,500 soldiers were stationed on the eastern foot of the Chess Mountain, but the composition was complex and not the elite Tongbai Mountain soldiers.

Once a night battle occurred in the south, the enemy troops of Liulingou Village were launched again. They would not just guard the camp on the eastern foot of Qizi Mountain. What is more important is to block the passage of Liulingou Village to reinforce the Han army camp in Yunzhou.

This battle is much more difficult and difficult.

What Chen Zixiao is more fortunate now is that the enemy did not go south directly from Liulingou, otherwise they would have to fight their best to intercept from the flanks. They must not be allowed to approach the Han army camp in Yunzhou, nor can they enter the Han army camp in Yunzhou.

If the more than a thousand enemy soldiers who came from Datong were asked to enter the Han army camp in Yunzhou, Chen Zixiao would not have imagined how difficult it would be for the Chushan soldiers to attack the Han army camp in Yunzhou again.

As one of the culprits in causing the bandits in Tongbai Mountain, there are still many people in Tongbai Mountain who still have opinions about him. However, Xu Wuli, who witnessed and learned all the details of bandits throughout the process, was even more clear that Chen Zixiao's knowledge and talents were far above ordinary military generals.

He nodded with a serious expression and said with a decisive note:

"The enemy cavalry who reinforced them should understand the importance of the Han army camp in Yunzhou. We cannot be careless. Immediately send orders, and the soldiers will not be disarmed tonight. Do everything possible to dig more trapped horse pits and bury more tripping horse piles. Don't stop doing this when it's dark. Prepare more bonfires in the camp and prepare for night battles. After it gets dark, transfer 200 people into the small ridge forest to guard the east. Even if it's in vain, it's better than being caught off guard..."

"Send troops from the south here!" Wang Hua, who led his personal guards to protect Xu Wuji's personal safety, stood downstairs and said.

The Qizishan camp was higher than the area east of Tianmen Mountain to the south. Everyone turned their heads and saw more than 200 cavalry coming from the east of Tianmen Mountain to the north.

"The military marquis should also be worried that the enemy cavalry will attack Qizi Mountain at night, and send troops to reinforce us." Chen Zixiao said confidently.

Compared to Chen Zixiao, Yang Qiye of course trusted Xu Huai's judgment more. Seeing that Xu Huai sent troops to reinforce him, there was no room for discussion at the moment, so he went downstairs to make arrangements.

After one stick of incense, it was Shen Zhenye. Yuan Lei led 200 cavalry into the camp and found Xu Wuji, Chen Zixiao, Yang Qiye and others:

"There are more than a thousand cavalrymen coming to help. The military marquis is worried that the night battle will start in the south, and the enemy cavalry may assault the Qizi Mountain, so I specially ordered my troops to come and reinforce!"

"It's just right for you to come here, Master Xu, so he was so angry that Yuan Lei led this man to ambush into the woods on the east side!" Chen Zixiao suggested.

The only one who can truly intercept and even damage the enemy's aid from the flanks is Chushan Cavalry; the garrison of Qizishan Camp can only form a formation from the front battlefield to intercept the enemy's cavalry...

…………

…………

The red sunset gradually spread out on the top of the West Mountain. The sky had not yet darkened completely, and a piece of lead blue seemed to be bottomless.

At this time, the catapult position on the south side of the Han army camp in Yunzhou was lit up to light the bonfires so that the catapults would continue to launch in an orderly manner.

Of course, the enemy cut a large amount of wood in the Han army camp in Yunzhou. In addition to urgently strengthening the roof, they also built a piece of fence wall next to the south wall of the military building to prevent the house from being directly hit by the stone bullets thrown by the thrown by the stone bullets; using a long bamboo pole to pull up curtains in the air, which can also buffer the stone bullets thrown by the stone bullets thrown by the smashed.

After a day of tossing and fighting, the threat of the catapult to the Han Army camp in Yunzhou was not that serious.

These deployments also have great limitations on the power of the bed crossbow.

Since the disturbed last night and the panic continued for another day during the day, the enemy troops saw that the Chushan Army in front of the camp did not move any other abnormal movements, and most of the troops entered the camp to rest.

Of course, a large number of alert men gathered under the village wall to watch the night, but they didn't dare to stand directly on the village wall.

Although the 20 to 30 kilograms of city bricks were not ground and rarely hit the wall that was not high, after the Chushan Army blocked the Nanzhen Gate of the Han Army camp in Yunzhou, he pushed eight simple arrow towers and the carriage climbed into the front line. A distance of 100 steps apart, the elite archers of the Chushan Army stood at the arrow tower four or five feet high. The carriage climbed into the city has an absolute advantage of being condescending against the wall of the enemy camp that was only more than ten feet high.

The enemy troops were unable to erect the same high arrow tower in the camp to fight, which would become a living target for the catapult.

The sky soon became completely dark, and thin clouds covered the sky, and three or five starlight could be seen.

At this time, teams of people retreated from the front line, and teams of people held torches into the front line, as if it was a normal rotation, and they changed defense.

Xu Huai pressed the sword on his waist with his hand, walked to the generals, and said:

"Most of the Taiyuan defenders are still very tired. The Chushan Army and Tianxiong Army have been raiding for a long distance. They have been fighting for several days, and their physical consumption has reached a limit. Therefore, I have not organized all the generals and soldiers who participated in the night battle today to mobilize them, so that everyone can get more rest and take more energy to kill the enemy. However, when you go back to various departments, in addition to the details such as passwords, you also need to communicate with the generals and soldiers more. There is only one reason: if a person dies, it may be lighter than if he dies.

The feather may be more important than Mount Tai. The man from Dayue is willing to kneel down to the butcher knife of the captured soldiers and live a life of silence. He is willing to see his wife, children, and brothers and sisters being invaded by the barbarians, or fight to the death... These words may have been said repeatedly before, but don't bother them. Everyone will go back to their own troops, and with two incense sticks, I will give a signal that everyone will attack the camp together, and then the subsequent troops will enter the front line one after another. We must break the gap for the subsequent troops to enter the depths of the enemy camp!"

Xu Huai originally planned to wait until the early morning, most of the enemy troops were asleep, and the enemy soldiers on duty were the most tired and slackened. However, the enemy's aid came earlier than he expected.

Although there were only more than 1,000 enemy troops reinforced from Datong, this group of people was even more unsightly than the 6,000 defenders in the Han army camp in Yunzhou.

He could not give these enemy soldiers a chance to calmly rest, so he advanced the general attack two hours to try to capture the Han army camp in Yunzhou before dawn.

Because we wanted to block the enemy's reinforcements from the flanks, Yin Peng and Tang Pan each led an elite force to defend the two wings. There were only one thousand elite Chushan soldiers who were truly used to attack the Han army camp in Yunzhou. The elite Chushan soldiers would also be responsible for breaking into the enemy camp from the middle road, near Nanyuanmen, and there were three thousand Taiyuan defenders who could barely enter the battlefield to fight.

Xu Xin'an and the others were worried about how much combat effectiveness the three thousand generals selected by the Taiyuan defenders still had, but Xu Huai was not worried.

The tragedy is available, and these three thousand generals and soldiers know better than anyone else that they have the hope of the 100,000 Taiyuan soldiers and people's livelihood. As long as they create opportunities for them to advance to the enemy camp, they will burst out with unimaginable strong will.

Of course, if we want to minimize casualties between the left and right routes, the middle route needs to assault to the enemy's tent as quickly as possible, completely destroying its weak command system at night...
