On that day, Zeng Yi led more than two thousand blood-clothed guards who brought Fengxiang City to supply crossbows to the border area of Xixia. Zeng Yi did not rush forward directly with the blood-clothed guards. Now all the blood-clothed guards were loaded with crossbow arrows. If they died this time,
, the one who lost was Zeng Yi himself, he did not dare to take risks with the blood-clothed guards casually.
After running all night, when he arrived at the border, the sky had already darkened. With a few of the blood-clothed guards, who were quite skilled, Zeng Yi arrived at a pass into Persia. This pass was not a very big pass.
Last time, Zeng Yi led the blood-clothed guards to fight out of here. Originally, Xixia was stationed at the border, with only two to three hundred ordinary soldiers.
But when he came here again, Zeng Yi found that the number of soldiers here had increased several times, and the energy of those soldiers was obviously much stronger than the soldiers he saw last time who died from eating.
"Made, with thousands of troops sent to such a small pass, the four countries are determined to completely blockade the Western Region!"
"Senior Brother! This is where we are. The defense is tighter than when we broke through yesterday!" The Xixia garrison was completely deployed in one day. This also relied on the blood-clothed guards' operations yesterday. If it hadn't been for them,
Yesterday's design was to break through here, and the Xixia people would not complete the defense change so quickly.
"Hey! I've just blown the grass away and alerted the snake!"
"Elder brother, what should we do? Should we take pictures of some more brothers to attract a wave of attention and form a formation to rush over?"
Zeng Yi shook his head, "It's useless. Look at the Xixia people's defenses. It's obvious that they are trying to lure the tiger away from the mountain. There are also those rejecting horses. Even if they rush over, they will suffer heavy losses and the gains will not be worth the losses!" The prototype of rejecting horses is
Multiple spears are inserted into logs as an obstacle to block enemy cavalry charges. This type of horse-repelling gun is often used in siege warfare and field battles. In field battles, it is mostly used on the defensive side as an auxiliary facility when building positions.
Used, it is also often used to block roads. The Xixia people deployed anti-horses on the pass road leading to Xixia. If they want to use cavalry tactics to break through, the casualties will be very heavy.
"Why don't we take risks and go into the wilderness?" The blood-clothed guards said hesitantly.
"It's too dangerous." The border between the Western Region and the Central Plains controlled by Xixia is very long, but there are only a few passes. These passes are on the main roads in and out of the Western Region. Of course, one can enter the Western Region between the passes, but it is unusual.
Danger, in addition to high mountains, is also in the wilderness. Not only is it very difficult to get lost, but it is also very dangerous halfway. In normal times, Zeng Yi might still go to those places. Now with so many supplies of crossbows and arrows, Zeng Yi is not completely sure and will never take risks.
"Go to the other checkpoints and see what's going on!" He took a few people with him and went to several other checkpoints in succession. With the same problem, defense changes were completed at each checkpoint and were guarded by general soldiers.
"Fuck, I won't give you a way to survive!" Zeng Yi searched for a while but couldn't find a way to break through. He could only let the guys like the blood-clothed guards rest first and talk about it tomorrow.
Zeng Yi went offline that night and took the three bosses to study countermeasures. After listening to Zeng Yi's introduction, the three bosses also understood the seriousness of the situation.
"Hiss, it's so poisonous! This is trying to force the player to death!"
"But the second brother is right. If we can open up a secret supply line, we will really make a fortune! Fourth brother, hurry up, use your smart brain and think of countermeasures."
"Um...Boy, didn't you look in other directions? For example, Tubo?"
"Tubo?" Zeng Yi had never thought of Tubo before. After all, he wanted to enter the Western Regions through Tubo. It was a long way around. He had to enter Tubo first and then enter the Western Regions.
"Yes, Tubo. I remember that before, we passed through Tubo and entered and exited the Western Regions. The first time, we can open up such a secret supply line for the second time."
Zeng Yi closed his eyes and thought for a long time, "Tubo, you can really give it a try."
Tubo was sparsely populated and was the weakest of the four-nation coalition. It sent an army of 100,000 to attack the Western Regions, and now it sent tens of thousands of troops to blockade the Western Regions. For Tubo, it was already very reluctant, and Tubo was
It is located on a plateau, and many places are covered by high mountains and glaciers. The Tubo people will not patrol. If Zeng Yi lets the Duans of Dali take action and attract part of the Tibetan army to the Chen Bing border, it will be very difficult to break through the Tibetan defense lines.
It's possible.
"Tubo can give it a try. I will lead the blood-clad guards to Tubo. The three of you, boss, will try to find a safe passage for Tubo to enter the Western Region from the south."
The next day, when they went online, Zeng Yi led the blood-clad guards and went straight to Dali. More than two thousand cavalry entered Dali City, and the Dali defenders were stunned. They thought the enemy was coming, but they found out that it was the imperial court.
The person immediately informed Duan Yu.
Not long after Zeng Yi entered the city, he met Duan Yu who came in a hurry. Duan Yu was very happy to see Zeng Yi and ordered his men to entertain the blood-clothed guards and took Zeng Yi back to the Zhennan Prince's residence.
"Fourth brother, how about what I talked about with you last time?"
"Fortunately, my eldest brother reminded me early. Dali is really actively preparing the equipment now. By the way, I wonder if something happened when my eldest brother brought the cavalry to Dali this time?"
"Hey, second brother, you should have noticed that Tubo has sealed the border. We have accurate intelligence. This is a conspiracy of the four-nation coalition. They want to use siege tactics to solve the Western Regions. I am here with two thousand heavy cavalry.
, just on the order of the old prince, the purpose is to open up a secret supply line. Only by opening up the supply line, can the Western Regions get sufficient supplies, hold back the Four Nations Allied Forces, and buy us more time!"
"Is the situation so serious already? Second brother, I wonder what I can do for you?" Duan Yu said very favorably, especially after hearing Zeng Yi say that he came here on the order of the old prince, knowing that Zeng Yi came here, he must
If you need his help with something, you might as well tell him first.
"I have already seen the Xixia side. There is basically no chance. The target can only be on Tubo. Tubo is the weakest. If we can attract some Persian border troops, then it is more likely that we will break through the defense line and return to the Western Regions.
too much."
Duan Yu did not speak and signaled Zeng Yi to continue. Zeng Yi continued: "If, fourth brother, you, Dali, can send heavy troops to guard the border with Tubo, I think Tubo will definitely be shocked. For safety, they will definitely send a part of the army to come.
Deal with Dali's army."
Duan Yu agreed quickly. Yu Qing and Zeng Yi were sworn brothers. Old Prince Yu Li had already ordered Zeng Yi to seek help from the King of Zhennan of Dali, so Duan Yu agreed without any hesitation. (Unfinished)
