Chapter 787: Sunrise in the East (12)
Another round of strong attacks was repulsed, and the Donghu army retreated like a tide. The Zhengdong Army also began to retreat, giving up the place it had previously held. The wooden planks were pulled away piece by piece, and a new one formed where they had previously stepped. The trench appeared. On the edge of the trench, the soldiers quickly re-erected a barrier. This time it was no longer a simple wire, but a coil of barbed wire. Shields were once again behind it. Standing up, the spear poked out again. The entire Jiepukou military stronghold was reduced by a third, but it was stable. Compared with before, there was no big change. Although there were many fewer people, the scope of defense was But also smaller
Ye Feng was sitting behind the defense line with his bare arms. The guards were dressing him in bandages. No matter how good the armor was, it could not block the slashes at close range. There were at least four or five bloody wounds on Ye Feng's body. The soldiers applied smear on the wounds. Ye Feng, who was taking medicine for his wounds and paying close attention to the situation of the enemy on the opposite side, was grinning from pain, and the muscles on his face were twitching. However, the soldiers who kept walking around him were already used to it, and they didn't even take a second look.
"This bad time is going to stop for a while!" Ye Feng didn't wait for the guards to tie the bandage for him, stood up and walked forward, frightening the guards behind him into jogging to keep up, while following closely behind him pace, while tying the final slipknot for him
"Let the brothers take a good rest and inform the people inside to bring the food and some wine immediately. Let the brothers drink some to get rid of the fatigue!" Ye Feng waved his arms and looked at the sky getting brighter. He also said for a long time. Heaving a sigh of relief, the Liaoning Guard is only a few dozen miles away from here. After this dark night, reinforcements from the Liaoning Guard may arrive at any time.
Ye Feng was in high spirits, and the entire Jiepukou Army Village was drinking and eating meat in a relaxed manner. In the Donghu camp not far from here, the Donghu people also began to make rice. Smoke curled up from the kitchen stoves, and after a violent attack all night, the Donghu people, who found nothing but countless corpses, were dejected. This meal was also tasteless
The same is true for Yu Wenming, staring at the place in the distance where the battle flag is flying high. My heart was full of frustration. In Hetao, I faced a superior enemy force, and they were the elite of the Eastern Marching Army. But here, the Eastern Group Army should be one level behind compared with the Eastern Marching Army in Hetao. Could it be that Can't you take them down even if you add them?
Of course Yu Wenming didn't know. This model battalion guarding the entrance to Jiepu is the essence of the entire Eastern Army. Every one of the soldiers is a master who climbed out of the mountain of corpses and sea of blood. Maybe he is not so depressed.
"Major General, the main force of the old general has come up!" Behind him, a soldier trotted over and whispered, "It is only more than ten miles away from here, and the camp has been set up. Let the young general pass by!"
Yu Wenming nodded, climbed onto his horse, and turned to take another look at the target he wanted to win. Wordlessly, he bowed his head and hit the horse, running towards the distance.
"Father, I apologize to you for not taking the border." Yu Wenming knelt down in the tent and said dejectedly.
"oh,
How was the fight? Is the opponent so difficult to deal with? "Yu Wenke didn't seem to have too many surprises.
"After arriving last night, the boy divided his troops into three and kept launching fierce attacks. But until now, he has only reduced the opponent's defensive camp by one-third. Except for the Thousand Palace Guards, I have no one." Except for those who moved without permission, the rest of the troops took turns to fight, and the casualties were considerable."
"It's not bad that we didn't defeat him." Yu Wenke didn't take it seriously.
"Huh?" Yu Wenming thought he heard wrongly and raised his head in surprise. Looking at his father's angry and expressionless face, he couldn't help but shudder, thinking that what his father said was sarcastic, he stood up and said, "Father, my son will go back immediately to reorganize the attack. This time, the son will personally lead the attack." The team is charging forward. If we don't take the boundary, we will never come to see you."
After saying this, Yu Wenming turned around and left.
"Come back!" Yu Wenke shouted back at Yu Wenming, "I said it's okay if I didn't kill him. You heard me right. Along the way, I was thinking about something over and over again, and suddenly I remembered the identity of Ye Feng. Suddenly I thought of a possibility, so I hurried over slowly. If I beat him, that would be fine. If not, I could use it to set up a game."
"Set up a game?" Yu Wenming blinked a few times, not understanding the meaning of Yu Wenke's words.
"This Ye Feng is Gao Yuan's brother-in-law, but he is also the only remaining male of the Ye family. This person's identity is not ordinary. Now he is trapped here and his life is precarious. Do you think He Lanxiong, Meng Chong and the others of Liaoning Guard are... Are you in a hurry? Are you thinking of saving someone?"
"Surround the area for help!" Yu Wenming suddenly understood
"We have a sudden attack, and the troops of the Liaoning Guard have not yet gathered together. If they stay behind closed doors and just defend the Liaoning Guard, I really can't do anything to them. But now that Ye Feng is in danger under our iron hoof, they will definitely We have to guard the Liaoning Guard to rescue them, and we have to come to rescue Ye Feng. The troops and horses have to be further dispersed. Hey, isn't this our opportunity?"
"Father has already made arrangements?"
"Of course, if the Liaoning Guard comes out, it can only be their cavalry. If He Lanxiong's infantry is used to guard the Liaoning Guard, I will beat his cavalry." Yu Wenke had a fierce look on his face.
"General!" The sound of rapid footsteps came from outside, and an officer walked in quickly, "The sentinel has received information about the enemy. There are two groups of enemies in the Liaoning Guard. One is the traitor Agu Huai'en, and the commander Ten thousand cavalry under his command came from our left wing, and another five thousand cavalry led by He Lanxiong came from our right wing. They are still twenty miles away from us."
Yu Wenke stood up excitedly, "Did He Lanxiong come in person? It seems that I still underestimated the importance of Ye Feng. A Ming, you go back immediately. Remember to attack, but you can't seriously knock down Jiepukou." Yes, that’s our bait.”
Yuwen Ke patted his son on the shoulder and said, "Go ahead, I will do the rest. By the way, for the Thousand Palace Guards, ask them to join me right away."
"Father, do you want to gather the palace guards to defeat He Lanxiong?"
"It's not He Lanxiong, it's Agu Huai'en!" Yu Wenke said coldly
Yuwen Ke only brought 3,000 palace guards to meet Agu Huai'en's 10,000 rebels, while his lieutenants Kirgiz and Gao Che led more than 20,000 cavalry to meet He Lanxiong.
Ever since Agu Huaien decided to betray Donghu and join the Eastern Expeditionary Army, he knew very well that sooner or later, he would have to face off against his comrades on the battlefield. He also made all preparations. He originally thought that he would have to wait until the attack and the Lin will not really go into battle until the final battle. He never expected that this duel would come so quickly.
Tibing and He Lanxiong attacked Jiepukou on the left and right respectively. It was almost certain that they would encounter the Donghu army in the middle. The scouts had previously discovered that the Donghu army that was attacking this time was about 30,000 in total. In addition to the palace guards, , the other flags are tribal flags of various colors
Agu Huai'en, who was familiar with the inside story of Donghu, couldn't help but feel relieved. He knew very well that with Thorpe coming to power, almost all the best warriors from various tribes had been drawn out to form several armies, and these armies Most of the army has been killed in the Battle of Hetao. These troops with various tribal flags can only be the last bit of wealth of the Donghu tribes.
Except for the Palace Guards, the other combat capabilities are not intimidating. Compared with his own subordinates, they are definitely inferior to one another. As long as he does not encounter the Palace Guards, he will definitely win this battle.
How could the palace guards come to deal with him? The one attacking on the other end was He Lanxiong, Gao Yuan's number one confidant and the majestic commander of the Eastern Group Army of the Eastern Conquest Army. Yu Wenke would naturally use the strongest and most elite troops in his hands to attack this big man. But he only needed to deal with those miscellaneous troops. Winning this battle is not a big problem
This is the first battle after he defected here. He must show his prestige. Whether in Donghu or in the Eastern Expeditionary Army, only troops and generals with strong combat effectiveness will be respected. Agu Huaien has no doubt about this.
This is a good opportunity for him to make a contribution. If the Zhengdong Army has many troops here, they may not think of using him so quickly. This is a good opportunity for him to prove himself. Agu Huaien thought like this and began to get excited. , Donghu could no longer support him, and he knew this very well. A large number of Jingkuang troops had been annihilated, and the domestic economy was on the verge of collapse. The reforms implemented by Thorpe were dedicated to depriving the tribal chiefs of their power, and wanted to control the entire country. Power is in the hands of one person. Except for a small number of people who support him, everyone else is deviant and succumbs to Thorpe's despotic power. It's just because of the army in Thorpe's hands, the palace guards. But now, his The ace palace guards were also on the verge of collapse. Five thousand palace guards died in the river, and five thousand were dragged between the white mountains and black waters of their hometown, unable to move. Thorpe only had 20,000 palace guards at his disposal. But Gao Yuan could play too many cards. He has an army that can compete with the palace guards, a powerful infantry team, and an economic force that gets stronger every day. This is the overwhelming force of Mount Tai, and Thorpe's defeat is inevitable.
Putting aside the blood feud between himself and Thorpe, Aguhuai'en also wants to find a new way out for himself and his people. Now it seems that Gao Yuan is a broad-minded person. He is also a foreigner. He Lanxiong The Xiongnu generals headed by them were heavily used in the Eastern Expedition Army, and there were many who commanded heavy troops. So why can't I become the next He Lanxiong? If he can do this, his own people will be able to benefit from it, and he will also save the Donghu clan.
Aguhuaien felt that he was very reasonable. He and the Agu clan must not be buried in the long river of history along with Thorpe by the Eastern Army.
Thinking about the bright future, Agu Huaien couldn't help but get excited. Then, he saw the waving flags where the smoke and dust rose in the distance. The excitement quickly faded away, like a ladle of cold water poured from head to bottom. At this moment , he had a feeling of being in the cold
Palace Guards! Yu Wenke actually led the palace guards to find him. Looking at the flags, almost at that moment, Aguhuaien judged that at least three thousand palace guards were attacking him. Launch a charge (to be continued)
