Turbulent Times Chapter 258: A big net
(Thank you very much for the generosity of 'achelless' and the support of the monthly ticket.)
Thinking of this, Wang Junlin called in two confidant guards, and ordered them to take their keepsake and a secret letter, walk the path as fast as possible, cross mountains and mountains, and find Jiang Mulang, Li Xiang and Su Changqing to lead them. The three thousand cavalry of Gaotai City.
"According to what Shen Guangxin said, after Yu Zhongwen left the capital, he led only a few entourages and rushed to Yongzhou day and night. I hope there is still time." The big net is covering him. Behind this big net are Yang Su, the first official of the Sui Dynasty, Yue Guogong, Yu Shi and Li Shi, the top clansmen of Guanlong, and the Turkic Five Thousand Silver Wolf King Cavalry. If you know, there may be other forces. After all, although Wang Junlin has gained a lot from Yang Su in the capital for three months, he has also forged enmity with many forces. There are many people who fear him, but they want to kill him quickly. There are also a lot of people, especially from various powerful families.
…
…
Almost at the same time that Wang Junlin received Shen Guang's letter, Yu Zhongwen started from the simple car and finally arrived at Shabang Pass, where he was picked up by Li Fengyun who was waiting at Shabang Pass.
Even Li Congrui, a member of the Li family and Li Fengyun's confidant, didn't know that Li Fengyun, as the general of Yingyang Lang in Zhangye County, went to Shabeng Pass for many days in person, although he came to dispatch troops in person He wanted to lure Wang Junlin to Heilangxing and block his retreat, but the more important reason was to personally meet Yu Zhongwen, the imperial envoy and supervisor sent by the imperial court.
It was less than a quarter of an hour after Zhongwen entered Shabengguan, because of an order signed by Zhongwen and Li Fengyun at the same time, he was sent out by a fast horse along the spacious Shagan Road to the commander who had already rushed to Zhangye County. In the hands of Jiang Mulang of the Three Thousand Cavalry in Gaotai City and the other three.
The content of this military order generally means: the Turkic cavalry who pretended to be Tuyuhun people hijacked the grain road, fearing the prestige of Qin Anhou, has taken the initiative to withdraw the Turkic, Qin Anhou has been ordered to go to Xiping County to assist the marching chief Yu Juluo to attack Xiping City In order to defeat the Tuyuhun people as soon as possible, three thousand cavalry from Gaotai City were specially ordered to pass through Qilian Mountains and attack Tuyuhun's lair in the south of Qilian Mountains.
The content of this order is reasonable, at least for Su Changqing, Jiang Mulang, and Li Xiang, three rookies in the officialdom who have served as captains for less than a year, there is no flaw, and Yu Zhongwen and Li Fengyun's order The order can be said to make full use of their character and admiration for their own generals.
It is not a matter of course that the Turkic cavalry fled early in fear of the prestige of their general.
The general manager asked his general to help attack Xiping City. In the past, it might be easy to break the city by using thaumaturgy.
As for letting them sneak attack on Tuyuhun's lair, it fits their character and ideas perfectly. The biggest characteristic of the three captains is their youthful vigor. It can be said that it is eager to make contributions to prove one's ability.
Therefore, Jiang Mulang, Su Changqing, and Li Xiang together, after getting a lot of supplements in Zhangye County, searched for a secret road across the north and south of Qilian Mountains that day, and killed Tuyuhun's lair.
Wang Junlin didn't know these things yet, because of Yu Zhongwen's appearance, he changed his original plan to go to Shabang Pass to "cheat". Under the premise of the army, as long as he enters the Shabang Pass, he is confident to control the other 7,000 defenders of the Shabang Pass and take down Li Fengyun. However, if there is Yu Zhongwen, an imperial envoy in Shabengguan, it will be different. He doesn't even dare to let Li Congrui and other sixteen generals with 3,000 troops know about Yu Zhongwen. The existence of these people, so as not to let these people have other thoughts and cause trouble.
After much deliberation, Wang Junlin resolutely decided to go through Heilangxing and go to Zhangye City. He wanted to join the confidant cavalry of Three Thousand Gaotai City as soon as possible. Fengyun deceived him to another place, so he had to find a way to take advantage of Li Fengyun waiting to deal with him at Shabeng Pass, and go to Zhangye City first, to forcefully control the 10,000 defenders in Zhangye City, and to win Jiang Yishan, the prefect of Zhangye County. Support, so as to firmly control Zhangye City in his own hands, only in this way can he remain invincible.
And if he can't reach Zhangye City before Li Fengyun and Yu Zhongwen, he will retreat to the next best thing, continue westward, and return to Gaotai City, his hometown, with Zhou Hu leading the 2,000 defenders left behind, plus In the past year of his management in Gaotai City, he can also remain invincible, and no matter how courageous Li Fengyun and Yu Zhongwen are, it is possible to surround and kill him in a field battle, but they will never dare to openly lead an army to attack Gaotai city, unless they want to slaughter the city afterwards.
However, whether it is Zhangye City or Gaotai City, if you want to get there as soon as possible, the only one who can go is Hei Lang Xing, and on the other side of Hei Lang Xing are five thousand Turkic silver wolf kings waiting for them. But Wang Junlin had no choice, he could only do things like 'knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, but walking towards the tigers'.
…
"...Everyone, this is the situation. Li Fengyun's collusion with the Turks is an unforgivable crime. This Marquis will kill him, but now in my Zhangye army, except for the 3,000 men and horses under your command, all of them have been killed by Li Fengyun." Fengyun is deceiving, now Li Fengyun is guarding Shabeng Pass, if we go rashly, the 7,000 troops deceived by Li Fengyun will definitely face our swordsmen, this Marquis does not want brothers to kill each other, so he wants to arrive at Zhangye City ahead of time, Take charge of the military power, and then attack Li Fengyun, a man who will die forever."
"Of course, Li Fengyun, that bastard, has colluded with the Turkic people to block the other side of Heilangxing, and if we take other paths, it will take too long, and we may not be able to reach Zhangye City before Li Fengyun, so this Marquis Decided to go Heilangxing, defeat the Turks, and return to Zhangye City."
When Wang Junlin said these words, he looked confident. If it were Li Fengyun, or even veterans like Liu Fang and Yu Juluo, with three thousand against five thousand Turkic silver king wolf riders, the people below would all I must be uneasy.
But Wang Junlin is different. If he puts on a confident look, the generals believe it and don't worry much. After all, Wang Junlin won every big victory in last year's battle. It is to win more with less, and to defeat the enemy with ingenuity.
"Your Majesty, please give me an order. None of our 3,000 people would dare to disobey your Lord's order, and we will definitely tell that Turkic thief to come and go." Take the lead and say it out loud. The others immediately agreed, but Shangguanhu, Niu Jinda and other Wang Junlin's direct descendants remained silent.
