Binzhou, also known as Binzhou in later generations.
This city is located in the northwest of Chang'an, and is the only place to pass in and out of the northwest frontier. The long Jingshui River originates from Liupan Mountain, passes through Xiaoguan all the way to the southeast, then passes through Binzhou, and finally merges into the Weishui River, forming the famous "Jingwei River is distinct" scene
.
Han Qinhu left behind Hou Mi and Yu Xi to lead the cavalry, and he led the infantry group northwest along the Jingshui River and attacked Binzhou. When Han Qinhu's forward appeared outside Binzhou City, he was responsible for
Yue Wang Yuwensheng, who was guarding Binzhou, had actually just arrived.
His Royal Highness the King of Yue has always been a man who is good at opportunism. He is pampered in the capital. Of course he is not willing to go to Binzhou early, where the treatment is definitely not as good as that of Chang'an. However, Yang Jian has already gone to the front line, and Qizhou has fallen.
, the Han army was approaching Chang'an, and Yuwensheng naturally couldn't sit still.
Of course, part of his inability to sit still was because he was worried that the Han army would threaten his safety if they really attacked Chang'an City, so he simply ran away. After all, Binzhou is on the land from Xiaoguan to Chang'an.
As long as Xiao Guan is not lost, there should be no danger.
But who knew that God was really going to play this joke on Yu Wensheng. The Han army turned north before Fufeng, fought all the way to Binzhou, and almost chased Yu Wensheng to the city. This made Yu Wensheng angry.
Scolding mother.
But now that the matter has come to this, we can only bite the bullet and face it.
As the king of Yue, Yu Wensheng finally had some strategic vision, so he could also know the purpose of the Han army. After killing Binzhou, Xiaoguan's retreat had been exposed, and he wanted to count on the northwest counties and other places.
Those rural soldiers were of no use at all.
So Yu Wensheng didn't dare not fight. He was good at opportunism, but he still knew that if he was greedy for life and afraid of death, Yang Jian would not let him go. Although Yang Jian still tries to maintain a tolerant attitude towards the Yuwen royal family, for example
During the previous fire in Shangluo, Yu Wenwen was not severely punished by Yang Jian, but was only scolded. However, after all, Yu Wenwen did not lose Shang Luo City, and Yang Jian's patience should have limits. Yu Wen could endure it last time
Wen may not be able to tolerate Yu Wensheng this time.
If someone like him is caught, he will be someone everyone wants to get rid of as soon as possible. Yu Wensheng still has some self-awareness.
When the Han army appeared at the gate of the city, Yu Wensheng had no choice but to fight bravely, even though he was unwilling to do so.
To defend the city, you must defend the country. As long as there are sufficient troops, Yu Wensheng will certainly not be trapped in the city. Especially since Binzhou is not a big city, it obviously cannot bring him a sense of security at all.
Moreover, he also knew that Li Yan was concentrating all his troops on the Fufeng front line, and it would be difficult to mobilize troops to support Binzhou. Moreover, Li Yan might not have the courage to send troops at all because of the battle in Qizhou.
Yu Wensheng has been a wallflower for such a long time, and of course he has understood that it is impossible to rely solely on others. At this point, he can only rely on himself.
Therefore, when the Han army formed a formation in the city, Yu Wensheng also decisively asked his son Yu Wenshu to lead five thousand soldiers and horses out of the city.
At this time, Yu Wenshu rode his horse and stood under the city gate. Five thousand soldiers and horses were arranged in a hook formation in front of him. It was obvious that Yu Wenshu had no intention of attacking. In fact, in his heart, he had already regarded his cowardly and cowardly father as
I don’t know how many times I scolded him.
Before Yu Wensheng arrived in Binzhou, the person in charge of the war in Binzhou was Yuwenshu. Yuwenshu had repeatedly requested to lead troops to support Qizhou. Except for Li Yan of Fufeng, the Zhou army in Binzhou could be said to be far away from Qizhou.
The nearest army is about 30,000 people, and the number is around 30,000. If we mobilize more than 10,000 people, we can make up 30,000 with Li Yan. If we fight against Han Qinhu with 30,000, we may not be defeated like Li Yan.
With such thoroughness, as long as Han Qinhu's vitality can be killed, it may be possible to prevent the war from burning all the way to Binzhou City as it is now.
Unlike his father, who always focused on his head, Yu Wenshu had long wanted to become a truly famous general, hoping to realize his dream of helping others overcome difficulties, and now he clearly had such an opportunity.
Yu Wenshu actually envied Li Xinchen. The reason why Li Xinchen was able to rise to prominence was because under the crisis in Nanchen, there was no better way besides Li Xinchen's strategy. But why doesn't his father like his own strategy now? Why should he?
Why wait until the flames of war really reach the bottom of Binzhou City before rushing to fight?
Yu Wenshu couldn't understand, but he couldn't argue with his father directly.
However, he does not intend to let go of any opportunity he can seize, because even if he cannot turn the tide, it is still a good choice if he can show his unique advantages from others.
Yu Wenshu is an ambitious person.
But his father undoubtedly disappointed him again.
There are five thousand soldiers and horses, but on the opposite side is the enemy's vanguard with at least 20,000 troops.
This means that Yu Wenshu only has the opportunity to rely on the support of the city to defend as much as possible. Even if he really defeats the enemy, he will not dare to pursue it at all, because there are at least 20,000 enemies spread out on the left and right wings, ready to enter the battlefield at any time.
However, what Yuwenshu is most fortunate about now is that he has not slackened in consolidating the city defense for such a long time. In addition to the original city defense trench in Binzhou, Yuwenshu dug two more city defense trenches on the south side.
There is another line of defense composed of Luzhai, which is now Yuwenshu's only support in front.
"Hoo!" The thunderbolt chariots of the Han army have begun to roar, and stone bullets tear through the north wind and rush towards the city wall one after another.
Then the drums sounded, and the soldiers of the brigade began to move forward, while the few four to five hundred cavalry spread out from the two wings, ready to harass the city at any time.
A stone bullet passed over the head and hit the city wall hard. The city wall seemed to be shaking slightly, and the rammed earth that made up the city wall turned into clouds of smoke and dust.
Yuwenshu held his breath. This was the first time he personally participated in and directly commanded a battle of this scale: "Archers, prepare!"
In order to prevent the Han army from directly covering his small team with stone bullets, Yu Wenshu's initial formation was loose. Since the enemy's goal was to directly attack the city wall behind, he had nothing to be polite about.
, just use bows and crossbows to educate these damn Nanman!
The Han army on the opposite side should have issued similar orders. The Han army stopped and began to change formations.
However, before Yu Wenshu could order the crossbowmen to prepare for shooting, a stone bullet, perhaps thrown too low, or deliberately, hit the deer village directly, forcefully pushing away a deer village, and then slammed to the ground.
It bounced off the ground and crashed into the crowd again!
