These words are a paraphrase of Changsun Wuji's words. On the surface they sound good, but in reality they mean just four words - everyone is at peace with his destiny.
The reason why the east and west armies advanced northward along both sides of Chang'an City was because the Youtun Guards did not have enough troops to resist the two armies at the same time. If one failed to take care of the other, one side would inevitably fall. But the Youtun Guards' combat power was beyond the control.
There, once they decide to let one side go and attack another side, the group being beaten will face a fierce attack from the right guard.
Heavy losses are inevitable.
However, in order to avoid being questioned within Guanlong for taking the opportunity to consume allies, Changsun Wuji simply brought the Changsun family's wealth to the table and was led by Changsun Jiaqing. The two largest families ranked first and second among the Guanlong clan simultaneously poured their money into
So, what reason do other people have for not doing their best?
Yu Wenlong could not refuse this order. Of course, he was in danger of being fiercely attacked by the Youtun Guards. The same was true for Changsun Jiaqing. The rest depended on which of the Youtun Guards chose to release and which one to attack.
No one can guess Fang Jun's thoughts, so it is said that "everyone is at peace with his destiny".
The one who gets beaten is extremely unlucky, and the one who is let go may go straight to the Xuanwu Sect, completely defeat the Youtun Guards in one fell swoop, and overthrow the East Palace...
Yuwenlong has nothing to worry about. Changsun Wuji has done his best to be fair. The fate of the two armies of the Changsun family and Yuwen family is determined by heaven. There is nothing to say whether they live or die. But if at this time he dares to question Changsun
Wuji's orders, or even disobeying them, will surely arouse the denunciation and hostility of the entire Guanlong clan. No matter whether this battle is won or lost, the Yuwen family will bear everyone's infamy and become the sinners of Guanlong.
Taking a deep breath, he nodded slowly at the commander who sent the order, then turned around and said to the general beside him: "Send the order, the army will immediately set off and advance along the city wall in the direction of Jingyao Gate and Fanglin Gate. The scouts will always pay attention.
Regarding the movement of the guards on the right side, if there is any abnormal movement by the enemy, come and report it immediately!"
"Here!"
The surrounding generals and commanders received the order and quickly dispersed. While conveying the order to various ministries, they restrained their troops to assemble and continue to advance eastward along the north wall of Chang'an City.
Tens of thousands of troops, with flags fluttering and their military appearance in full glory, slowly moved towards Jingyao Gate, turning a blind eye to the Gao Kan tribe in front of them and the Tubo Hu cavalry behind them.
It's like gambling. You don't know what cards the opponent has in his hand, so you can only say "I bet you don't dare to come over and hit me"...
How tragic?
*****
Gao Kan, with his helmet pierced through his armor, was riding in the military formation. The Yong'an Canal was flowing rapidly behind him, and the forests on both sides of the river bank were dense and sparse. Fanglin Garden was the former imperial palace of the Sui Dynasty.
Various repairs were carried out, and the surrounding scenery was also maintained and repaired. However, due to the continuous wars in Chang'an at the end of the Sui Dynasty, most of the trees in the Forbidden Garden were burned down. In more than 20 years, some miscellaneous trees have grown, but they are sparse.
Different, just like alopecia areata...
The scouts brought the latest battle report. The Yuwenlong tribe first stopped at a place not far to the west of Guanghua Gate, and soon set off again and headed straight for Jingyao Gate, much faster than before.
When a large army goes out on an expedition, there must be a reason for it, regardless of the order or prohibition. It must not suddenly stop and suddenly move forward without any reason. The changes in formation between thousands of troops and horses, and the advancement and retreat of the army will reveal great flaws.
Once caught by the opponent, it can easily lead to a big defeat.
So, what is the reason why Yuwenlong stopped first and then moved forward?
According to the existing intelligence, he couldn't see through it, let alone guess it... Fortunately, he didn't need to pay too much attention to it. Fang Jun ordered him to lead his army to arrive here, but he didn't order him to launch an offensive immediately, apparently to weigh the rebels.
Between the east and west routes, who is the main attacker and who is the containment? Before the rebels' strategic intentions are fully understood, they will not dare to easily choose one route to attack.
However, Fang Jun was still inclined to attack Yu Wenlong's route, so he and Zan Po were sent out at the same time to approach the enemy.
What he has to do is to make all the preparations. As long as Fang Jun is determined to hit Yu Wenlong, he can attack with all his strength and not let the opportunity disappear.
Under the night, the dense forest is vast and vast. Several spring rains have made the land of Fanglin Garden stained with moisture. In the middle of the night, the breeze is gentle and refreshing.
20,000 elite troops of the Right Guards were stationed on the west bank of Yong'an Canal, with light cavalry in the front, muskets in the middle, and heavy armored infantry in the rear. The formations between the armies were rigorous and closely connected, so that they would not interfere with each other and could provide timely assistance.
Once given an order, they would pounce on the oncoming rebels like wolves and tigers, and attack them head-on.
The night wind blew through the forest, making a rustling sound.
The scouts continuously sent back battle reports from the front, and the rebels received feedback every time they took a step forward. Gao Kan was as calm as a mountain, silently calculating the distance between the enemy and ourselves, as well as the nearby terrain. His calm demeanor affected the surrounding generals and soldiers.
, the anxiety and excitement caused by the enemy getting closer and closer was tightly suppressed.
Everyone understands that now that the two rebel armies are attacking together, the right guard's decision is crucial. If he rushes forward to engage in a melee with the enemy at this moment, but then the commander's order is to retreat to Xuanwu Gate to attack the east rebels on the other side, then
But that's troublesome...
Time passed little by little, and the enemy troops were getting closer and closer.
Just when the 20,000 soldiers were impatient and their morale was unstable, a few fast horses galloped from the direction of Xuanwumen. The sound of horse hoofs trampling on the pontoon bridge on the Yong'an Canal could be heard far away in the dark night.
All the soldiers nearby pricked up their ears.
coming!
The commander-in-chief's order finally arrived, and everyone was eagerly paying attention to whether to start fighting immediately or retreat to defend Xuanwu Gate?
The cavalry galloped as fast as thunder, dismounted in front of Gao Kan, knelt down on one knee, and said loudly: "The commander-in-chief has ordered Gao Kan's tribe to attack and attack Yuwen Long's tribe head-on! At the same time, Zan Po was ordered to lead the troops.
The Tubo Hu cavalry continue to penetrate southward, cut off the Yuwenlong tribe's retreat, encircle and annihilate them!"
"boom!"
The generals and soldiers who heard the news let out a low cheer. They were all very excited and excited. Just listening to the military orders showed the spirit of the commander-in-chief!
On the opposite side are a total of 60,000 Guanlong rebels. Their strength is almost twice that of the Youtun Guards. Among them, there are no less than 30,000 Yuwen family elites from Yuwoye Town. They are a force that can affect the outcome of the war anywhere.
.But for such an army that was rampaging through Guanlong, the commander's order was to "encircle and destroy it"!
Who else in the whole world can be so generous?
This shows how much the commander-in-chief trusts the soldiers under Youtunwei, believing that they are enough to defeat any powerful army in the world today!
Gao Kan took a deep breath, feeling the blood boiling and surging in his body, and his face flushed slightly. Because he knew that this battle was very likely to completely determine the situation in Chang'an, and the East Palace was still succumbing to the rebels' power and was in danger of overthrowing.
, or completely reverse the decline and remain standing, all depends on the current battle.
Gao Kan looked around and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, the commander trusts us to surround and annihilate the Yuwen family's Woye Town soldiers. Naturally, we cannot let down the commander's trust! Not only that, we must fight quickly.
Quick decision, since the commander-in-chief has issued an order for us to storm the Yuwenlong tribe, then Changsun Jiaqing’s tribe on the other side must lack the necessary defense and may threaten the camp! The commander-in-chief’s family members are all in the camp. If there is any mistake,
,How can we face seeing the commander again?"
"Fight! Fight! Fight!"
The surrounding generals and soldiers were excited and shouting, which in turn affected the soldiers around them. Everyone knew the importance of this battle and the dangers involved, but no one was timid. Only the boiling ambition rose into the sky and vowed to fight quickly.
Make a quick decision and annihilate this elite Guanlong army without causing any harm to the commander-in-chief and his family.
For this reason, they do not hesitate to fight to the death!
Gao Kan sat on his horse without saying a word, letting the emotions of the soldiers brew to their peak. Then he waved his hand and shouted: "Every ministry will act according to the original plan. No matter how stubborn the enemy is, they must be struck with one blow."
Broken, we cannot live up to the commander-in-chief’s trust, the prince’s high hopes, let alone the expectations of the people in the world! Listen to my general’s orders and attack with the whole army!”
"kill!"
The light cavalry at the front burst out with an earth-shattering scream, spurred their horses and whips, jumped out from the dense forest, and rushed towards the oncoming enemy troops in front. Immediately afterwards, the Chinese troops carrying muskets
The soldiers followed them at a trot, and finally came the heavy armored infantry wearing heavy armor and holding Mo Dao. These tall and powerful soldiers were the same as the armored cavalry. They not only had excellent physical fitness, but also had rich combat experience.
At this moment, follow up the large group slowly.
The light cavalry can disperse the enemy array, and the musketeers can kill and injure enemy soldiers. But in the end, if you want to reap victory, you still have to rely on these heavily armored infantry who are armed to the teeth and can run rampant among the enemy...
On the opposite side, Yu Wenlong, who was marching, had already learned about the military situation of Gao Kan's entire army's attack. With a serious look on his face, he immediately ordered the entire army to be on alert. However, before he could adjust the array, countless Youtun guards suddenly jumped out from the dark night.
, the killing came like an overwhelming tide.
The sound of fighting resounded through the sky, and the war broke out instantly.
