Chapter 358 Head-to-head confrontation

 May 20th of the first year of Yongping.

Seven days after Duan, the general of the Buddha Army, could not bear to die in battle in Baochuan County.

The battle between the six cities in northern Xinjiang and the Turks and the Jin Kingdom fell into a stalemate. The battle continued to become fierce. Countless soldiers and horses were killed and injured on both sides. It was too late to count how many people were killed in the battle.

General Yunzhou's Mansion rode a fast horse into the city quietly and stopped in front of the mansion gate.

"Report, the Polu Army and the Futu Army under the command of Marshal Liu Mingzhi of the Central Army have all been contacted and are now heading towards Yunzhou, and the combined forces will be completed soon."

General Yunyang Yigan, who had just returned from the war, was discussing the strategy of how to face the enemy next time, and his face lit up when he heard the words of the scouts who came flying in.

"Great, we can finally complete the combined forces."

The scout looked at the happy people and looked at Yun Chong with hesitant expression.

"Qi... Qi General."

Yun Chong was stunned and subconsciously looked at the scout who was hesitant to speak. Seeing the somewhat sad look on the scout's face, he suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

Not only Yunchong, but the people around him were all human spirits, and they immediately noticed something was wrong with the scout's expression.

Yun Chong walked up to the scout and said, "Stop hesitating, tell me what's going on?"

The scout sighed and took out two pieces of rice paper from his arms, holding them tremblingly in his hands.

"On May 10th, the forward battalion of the Buddha Army encountered the Turkic army in Tianshui County. More than half of the soldiers were killed and wounded, and 7,000 Turkic soldiers and horses were killed."

"On May 11th, the Polu Army Zuo Xiao's guards and horses encountered Yizhou Prefecture and Turkic soldiers and horses..."

"On May 13th, Duan Buhan, the general of Futu, led three thousand brothers from Baochuan County to fight the Turks to the death, killing 4,200 enemy troops and annihilating the entire army!"

"All three thousand brothers from the Pagoda Army died for the country!"

"On May 14, General Zhou Baoyu of the Polu Army was wounded in the leg bone by a stray arrow. Although there is no danger of life, according to the doctor, General Zhou will most likely become a lame in the rest of his life!"

"Although it doesn't have much impact, it's almost impossible to walk as fast as a normal person."

"As of now, there are only about 30,000 soldiers of the Futu Army and more than 35,000 soldiers of the Polu Army who have been contacted, and most of them are wounded!"

"The rest of the troops all died fighting for the country!"

Yun Chong and others stared blankly at the rice paper in the scout's hand, closing their eyes with sad expressions.

Jiang Lei, who followed Liu Mingzhi's order and stationed some artillery in Yunzhou to help defend the city, looked at the letter in the scout's hand with trembling lips.

"General Duan!"

Yunyang let out a sigh of relief: "How are the two guards facing the situation now?"

"Now they are leading the Turks by the nose to Yunzhou."

"If nothing else happens, we should be able to reach the city by dusk."

Yunyang nodded silently: "They are all the sons of my great dragon. The court will never forget them, your majesty will not forget them, King Bingjian will not forget them, and the people will not forget them either.

of!"

Nangong Ye sighed with a complicated expression.

"Now that they have begun to join forces, our combat deployment out of the city will need to change. This commander suggests that we gradually pull the battle line westward, preferably as we approach Ganzhou."

"In this way, we can contact the reinforcements coming from the Western Regions as quickly as possible and catch the Turks by surprise."

Yunyang pondered for a while and nodded: "I think it's okay. In this way, we can also get some more troops from Ganzhou to start a head-on confrontation with the Turks."

"We also second the proposal."

"That's right, do your best to fight the Turks to the death."

Yunyang Nangong Ye looked at each other and said that as long as all the generals are united, they will not be afraid of the Turks in this decisive battle outside the city.

Yunyang looked at his son Yun Chong: "Yun Chong!"

"The end is here!"

"Have you received any reply from the scouts you sent to the Western Region? Are there any traces of reinforcements?"

"Not yet, but it is understandable that we are not sure whether the reinforcements will enter through Ganzhou or Suzhou. It is not impossible to go directly across Heshuo Grassland and bypass Yunzhou."

"The territory is so vast, it's not impossible for brothers and reinforcements to get separated!"

"Then send a few more scouts to investigate. Once found, reply quickly to boost morale. After fighting for so long, we must find something to boost the morale of our brothers. This way, they can exert their super long-term performance on the battlefield.

With our strength, we can give the Turks a head-on blow."

"With the order, General Mo will make arrangements right away."

"Nangong Shuai, let's start decorating according to the plan!"

"Okay, I mean, I mean, Evian Shuai."

On May 23, reinforcements from Yunzhou, Ganzhou, Suzhou, and Liu Mingzhi gathered in Yunzhou, with a total of more than 280,000 soldiers and horses, and Huyan Yunyao's soldiers and horses launched an exploratory battle with the west of Yunzhou City.

head-on confrontation.

After Dalong's side left the city, they blocked the Yunzhou City Gate and fought with the Turkic soldiers and horses as they gradually gathered towards Ganzhou City.

The Dalong army is relatively weak compared to the Turkic soldiers and horses, and the Turkic cavalry is full of them. In the confrontation between the two armies, although the Dalong side has various excellent military equipment, it is still somewhat invincible under the turbulent offensive of the Turks.

No matter how powerful two legs are, they are no match for four legs.

Except for the more than 100,000 dragon cavalry who were attacking the Turkic soldiers and horses, they were barely able to fight against them, and the remaining infantry were in passive defense.

Huyan Yunyao realized the power of the Dragon Army Formation and ordered his troops to take full advantage of the cavalry and constantly harass and charge the Dragon Army Formation.

Yunyang and others went to great lengths to do this, but there was nothing they could do.

The Turks rushed past on horseback, and it was almost impossible for the infantry to catch up. Only relying on more than 100,000 cavalry could not restrain the speed of the Turks.

Huyan Yunyao sat in the big tent and looked at the battle reports of the past few days with a complex expression.

"Something's wrong. The dragon's troops seem to have strategically fought a roundabout battle with us, but why does Ben Khan feel that these dragon's troops seem to be gradually moving closer to Ganzhou?"

Hu Yanyu took the battle report from Hu Yanjunyao's hand and looked through it.

"Indeed, if they follow this speed, they will arrive in Ganzhou the day after tomorrow. Although our cavalry is powerful, they cannot continue to attack. They have taken this gap and have been retreating towards Ganzhou."

"Is there anything in Ganzhou that can help them resist us?"

"Faced with an army formation of more than 200,000 men, our brothers still dare not rush in blindly. These days, more and more brothers are dying in the rear gunners of the dragon horse."

"This is a new batch of artillery fire that we have never seen before. It is light and can fire about twice as fast as before. The most important thing is this thing."

As Hu Yanyu spoke, he took out an object and placed it in front of Hu Yanjunyao.

Huyan Yunyao looked at the steel ball in her elder brother's hand blankly, took it and looked through it, looking at Huyanyu in confusion.

"What is this? It seems to be a bead made of iron."

"Firegun pellets! Wanyan Jiezha mentioned this in his letter. In the past few days, I have inspected the bodies of the brothers and found that many brothers were killed. Under the steel ball, the wound was a bloody hole, which was bigger than the bow and arrow belt.

The damage will be much greater than that."

"Most of the brothers fell off their horses and died after being shot by this thing without knowing it."

Huyan Yunyao thought about it and nodded clearly: "I remember, Wanyan Chizha did say this thing! This thing has never appeared in the army of the three cities in the west of Dalong. I almost forgot about it. If so,

As you said, the power of this thing cannot be underestimated!"

"Lotus dew!"

"exist!"

"Give me the command to have the elite spectators and Ben Khan keep an eye on them and find out the location of these gunmen!"

"Got the order!"
