Chapter 1862 The Old Man Wears Armor (2)

Wuguan suddenly became a lot more lively. The Tianlang Army, Xuanwu Army, and Shuofeng Camp, all the troops that rarely appeared in Wuguan, all arrived, and all the main cavalry forces in Beiliang gathered together.

As the war came to an end, Wuguan City was filled with joy and morale soared.

In the battle of the past two days, the cavalry showed off its skills and defeated the Yan army. This was seen by all the guards in the city. The morale of the army was so high that the infantry were eager to rush out of the city and fight again.

The meeting hall was filled with armor, and many generals gathered together. There was constant laughter and laughter. It had been a long time since everyone had been together like this.

There was a hint of joy on everyone's face, because just this morning, the crossbowmen reported quickly that the Yan army had broken camp and retreated a full fifty miles.

Sure enough, it was withdrawn!

Liang Jun had to fight back this time and completely achieved his goal.

"Yan Shuai's tiger and leopard cavalry are really powerful. They smashed through the horse-repelling formation head-on. We were stunned to see him. After all, he is a powerful soldier trapped in the formation. I admire him!" Qi Guang grinned and gave Yan Hongyi a thumbs up, with a look on his face.

Flattery.

"Hehe, hahaha!"

Yan Hongyi smiled from ear to ear:

"Nowhere~ The Red Flame Army is also very powerful. Ten thousand people held back the main force of the yellow-backed Silver Bear Flag, preventing them from joining the battlefield. You are also powerful, very powerful."

"Hey, hey, hey~ The most powerful one is the Xuanwu Army. They are covered in iron armor. We are drooling just by looking at it~"

"I'll give you the armor, do you want it? If you want, come to the Xuanwu Army, and I, Lao Xiang, will give you a centurion."

"Hahaha~"

The meeting hall was filled with joy, and all the Northern Liang generals were complimenting and joking with each other, feeling very uncomfortable.

Several generals who have always been serious and calm also learned to joke.

"Okay, okay, it's just you who talk more."

Xue Tian raised his hand with a smile and said with a chuckle: "This battle was fought beautifully. I owe you all a celebration drink. When the war is over, come to my house and we will not return until we are drunk!"

"Okay, haha!"

This battle can be said to be a great victory for the Liang army.

First, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry attacked the Yan Army's resisting horse formation head-on, then the Xuanwu Army and the Red Flame Army fought hard against the two main forces of the Eight Banners of the Yan Army, and finally the Sirius Army and the Shuofeng Camp massacred all sides.

All the main cavalry troops left behind in Beiliang had arrived, and Xue Tian had spent all his money and had nothing left to spare.

The results of the battle did not live up to expectations, with a total of 50,000 to 60,000 enemies killed and less than 10,000 losses on our side.

Except for the tiger and leopard cavalry who collided head-on and tore apart the horse-repelling formation, which suffered a bit more damage, the other cavalry armies were all fine, and the Sirius Army and Shuofeng Battalion who came from afar suffered no damage.

Killing the enemy was on the one hand, and on the other was the Yan army's siege equipment. They suffered heavy losses in military supplies and supplies and were forced to retreat, which could be regarded as giving the Wuguan defenders a huge breathing space.

Zhuge chuckled confusedly and said: "We have won the battle. Now we just wait for the two Yan armies in Youzhou and Shuozhou to retreat together."

Yan Hongyi asked with some uncertainty: "Sir, although the Yan army was defeated, Mu Yunhuan and Tuoba Hong still have an absolute advantage in strength. Will they really retreat?"

"Yes, the Yan army came with great fanfare, they won't withdraw so easily, right?"

Everyone expressed the same question.

"Haha~"

Zhuge Tumu smiled slightly and said confidently:

"Most definitely!

Although the Yan army in the east and west has the advantage, they will think that if we can defeat Mu Yun Duankang, we can also defeat them, so they have to guard against it.

Rather than risking defeat and continuing to attack the city, it is better for the entire army to retreat and wait for reinforcements from the five tribes. This is the safest way.

What's more, Mu Yunduankang and Mu Yunhuan each have their own evil intentions, and neither of them wants to see the other defeat the city before themselves, so Mu Yunduankang will definitely order Mu Yunhuan to retreat."

After listening to Zhuge's confused analysis, everyone nodded and felt relieved.

"Okay, time is tight, so I won't say anything unnecessary."

Xue Tian stood up slowly and said in a deep voice:

"The generals will return to their respective stations to rest and replenish their troops. If the Yan army really retreats across the board, the defenders of the three passes will immediately take the opportunity to repair the city walls without making any mistakes.

I hope everyone will remember that this victory does not mean the final victory. The real hard battle is still to come.

The northern defense line depends on you all!"

"Promise, I will wait and do your best to protect my border!"



On the official road south of Wuguan, Xue Tian, ​​Zhuge Mingtu, and Song Zhilu walked side by side, walking lightly.

Behind the three people was a carriage and Qingqi No. 20 or 30. The young white-horsed follower, Jiang He, was among the crowd, leading the horse slowly.

Having experienced a life-and-death escape, the young Jiang He also gained a sense of calmness, with a calmness on his face that was inconsistent with his age.

Xue Tian said softly: "Sir, he traveled thousands of miles back and forth. He didn't even have a few days of rest in Wuguan and then had to rush to the front line. It was really too tiring.

You are not from the military, so how can you endure such a rush? If you ask me, sir, it is not too late to stay here for a few days before going to the front line."

"It's better to leave as soon as possible."

Zhuge shook his head slightly in confusion: "The situation on the battlefield is ever-changing, and reinforcements from the Yan army are approaching the city at any time, eyeing our border with Beiliang.

The Chang family, the Yuwen family, the Zhao family, and the Zhou family are all competing for each other. The sooner the poor monk comes to the prince, the sooner he can help make plans."

"Sir, you are so energetic~"

Song Zhilu lamented next to him: "It's not like me, who has old bones and can't walk~"

"Hey, Master Song, what are you talking about?" Zhuge said with a confused smile: "Master Song is working hard day and night for the sake of the cold land. Everyone can see this.

When the people of Northern Liang mentioned Mr. Song’s name, who wouldn’t give a thumbs up?”

The three of them walked while talking and walked two or three miles in the blink of an eye.

"Okay, let's send you two here." Zhuge Tu finally stopped: "It's getting late, and it's time for the poor monk to set off.

I’ll leave the Liangdi border defense to you two. Taking advantage of the Yan army’s retreat, the Mohists can rush to various cities to help repair the city walls. This should be a rare opportunity for Beiliang and must not be wasted.”

"Don't worry, sir, Senior Mo has already set off and will arrive at Wuguan early tomorrow morning." Song Zhilu said in a deep voice.

"It's unfortunate that I can't have a drink with Senior Mo." Zhuge looked confused and regretful.

"Hahaha!"

The three of them laughed out loud.

Although Zhuge Muzitu, a fair-weather monk, was several decades older than Mo Xuzi, when they got to the wine table, both of them stared at each other and refused to give in to the other.

Zhuge looked at Xue Tian confusedly and said:

"For the war, I entrusted you to Xue Duhu. The general led the army with great talent and a calm mind, and the prince had great trust in me.

You’ll have to work harder these days~”

Xue Tian nodded heavily: "Sir, please tell the prince that the Beiliang border army will never let the prince down!"

"Okay, that poor monk will leave now!"

Xue Tian and Song Zhilu bent down to salute at the same time, and said solemnly: "Sir, take care on your journey, and wish you all the best!"
