Chapter 1276 Muchuan leads the team to assist in the battle and returns to the customs to repair and settle down
Xue Dingshan said solemnly: "Since the enemy has come for a sneak attack, they will definitely come back.
We can't sit still and wait for death! I plan to set up a trap at Baiyunguan to lure the enemy deeper!"
"General Xue, I am willing to do this, please allow me!"
Dou Yihu said.
Muchuan said: "General Dou, I will do this with you!"
Dou Yihu said: "I plan to set up an ambush outside the city!"
Muchuan said: "Okay, I'll be responsible for setting up the ambush.
General Dou is responsible for luring the enemy deeper!"
After Muchuan gave the order, he sat inside Baiyunguan Pass, frowning and thinking.
Why did the Turks choose this time to attack?
How did they bypass Baiyun City and attack Baiyun Pass?
Could it be that the Turks had scouts?
Or does it mean that the Turkic cavalry have special passages?
Muchuan was puzzled.
…
At this moment, in the Turkic military tent, Turis was sitting in the main seat.
"Report" A messenger rushed in and reported: "Report to the marshal, Muchuan, the governor of the Andong Protectorate, led 10,000 iron pagodas to come to the rescue!"
"Um?"
Tulis frowned and murmured: "How could this be?"
Although Tulis did not personally lead the troops in battle, he knew the strength of Xue Dingshan and Muchuan.
"Khan, we should immediately send cavalry to intercept them, and we must not let them go!"
A tribal leader said.
Tulis waved his hand and said: "No! This is a tentative attack. Let them fight through and consume their strength."
"The general will obey your orders!"
The tribal leader said.
Tulis continued: "Order, the whole army is ready to fight!"
"yes!"
"In addition, five hundred iron pagodas will be dispatched to support."
Tulis ordered.
Tulis has an army of 300,000 in his hands, and he is not afraid that he will not be able to break the Baiyun Pass.
He knew that Baiyunguan was now surrounded. Although Muchuan led his troops, the number was not large after all.
Tulis believed that the defenders at Baiyunguan could not hold out for a few more days. When the time came, he would send out cavalry to attack, and he would be able to defeat Xue Dingshan and Muchuan's cavalry in one fell swoop.
Xue Dingshan and Muchuan led the cavalry back to Baiyunguan and immediately rested.
Muchuan was very satisfied with Baiyunguan. He thought that his strategy was successful, and the enemy had indeed fallen into the trap!
There is sufficient food and grass in Baiyun Pass.
Therefore, Xue Dingshan and Muchuan decided to stay at Baiyunguan for a period of time to recover their tired bodies in case of unexpected events.
Muchuan divided the cavalry into eight thousand-man teams and stationed them in eight places respectively.
Baiyunguan is surrounded by mountains and mountains, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Muchuan's purpose was not only to stop the Turks from defending Baiyunguan, but also to wait for his musketeers and mortar troops to be ready.
After all, these strategic weapons are the core killer moves for resisting the Turks' 300,000-strong army!
The next night, Muchuan had returned to Peiping to direct the city's construction.
And Xue Dingshan was commanding the army to rest in Baiyun Pass.
Just then, a sentry ran in to report in a panic.
"Reporting to General Xue, the Turkic cavalry is here again!"
Xue Dingshan frowned slightly and said, "Why do these beasts still linger?"
Dou Yihu next to him was also surprised and asked: "General Xue, you said there are so many Turkic cavalry, how did they get here from the Great Wall!"
"I'm afraid there is a big gap in the Great Wall and we don't know about it!"
Xue Dingshan said in a deep voice: "Or I guess it may have something to do with the number of Turkic troops.
The Turks have many cavalry and gunpowder weapons."
"General Xue, what should we do next?"
Xue Dingshan pondered for a moment and said: "Climb the city tower and prepare to defend the city and fight!"
Xue Dingshan decided to go to the city to fight!
At Xue Dingshan's order, the cavalry got up and prepared for battle.
"Send orders to all battalions to prepare for battle and be ready to attack at any time!"
Xue Dingshan shouted in a deep voice.
An hour later, Baiyun Gate was closed, and the muzzle of a giant cannon was pointed at the Baiyun Pass city gate.
Xue Dingshan stood in front of the cannon and looked into the distance.
The Turkic cavalry has arrived outside Baiyun Pass!
Turis rode a tall horse and stood under the Turkic flag.
"Instruct the entire army to prepare for battle!"
Tulis shouted to a herald beside him.
"Yes, General!"
The herald turned away, and soon ran back to the army to read Turis's order.
The Turkic cavalry mounted their horses one after another.
Tulis got on his horse, raised his whip, and rushed to the city gate first.
Tulis led the cavalry to rush to the gate of Baiyunguan. He wanted to break through Baiyunguan first and completely occupy Baiyunguan.
Tulis led the cavalry and quickly rushed to the city of Baiyunguan, which was only seven or eight feet away.
At Baiyun Pass, more than a thousand cavalry stood behind the battlements, with feathered arrows on their bowstrings, ready to go.
Xue Dingshan stood behind the battlements, looked at the Turkic cavalry, with a solemn expression on his face, and said: "Get ready to fight!"
"Yes, General Xue!"
The herald beside him promised.
Soon, the two armies confronted each other.
Tulis sneered and said: "General Xue, we have a lot of cavalry, you'd better surrender!"
"snort!"
Xue Dingshan snorted coldly and said: "Tulis, don't waste your words! You will die in Baiyunguan today, hahahahaha!"
"Yeah?"
Tulis sneered and said: "General Xue, I advise you not to be harsh, otherwise you will pay the price in blood!"
"I'm just stubborn, what can you do to me?"
Xue Dingshan said.
Tulis roared angrily and said: "Shoot!"
Many soldiers immediately opened their fire ropes and shot a row of long arrows towards the city wall.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
A series of explosions sounded, wooden planks on the city wall were blown away, sawdust flew, and arrows rained down.
The city wall was suddenly shrouded in a hail of hedgehog-like arrows, and screams and shouts of killing came and went.
Xue Dingshan was shocked, they actually had fire bows and arrows!
Xue Dingshan quickly raised his shield to protect him.
However, the arrows were too dense, and rows of arrow clusters went straight to Xue Ding Mountain.
Xue Dingshan's figure was obscured and could not be seen clearly.
"General Xue!"
The soldiers at Baiyunguan screamed in surprise.
There was chaos both above and below Baiyunguan City!
Rows of soldiers were shot and fell, and the blood stained the walls of Baiyunguan red!
Xue Dingshan's amulet was shattered, his protective armor was damaged, his shoulder pads were broken, and an arrow hit his chest!
"General!"
The soldiers at Baiyunguan screamed in surprise.
The gunpowder men on the city wall fired gunpowder bombs at the enemy, but the Turks reacted quickly and dodged.
Xue Dingshan raised his bow and arrow and shouted: "Quick! Fight back with your bow and arrow immediately!"
The soldiers at Baiyunguan drew their bows, aimed at the enemy, and then shot several arrows in succession, knocking down the enemy's horse.
"Boom!"
There were continuous explosions on the city wall, and many Turkic soldiers were blown away and fell into the ditch and were injured.
Xue Dingshan looked at the injured Turkic soldiers and couldn't help but grit his teeth.
