Chapter two hundred and fifty fifth chess difference
Yuchi Jiong quietly looked at the increasingly bright fire on the city gate. He didn't know why the other party did this. Is it to boost morale, or just to tease him?
But Yuchijiong knew in his heart that he had already completed his job of delaying time and making the enemy relax their vigilance. No matter how much the young general shouted at this time or how he gained the support of the soldiers on the city, in Yuchijiong's view, he was just a turtle in a urn.
That’s all.
Once the news came that their reinforcements had been wiped out, Yuchi wanted to see why these guys persisted!
No matter how strong a person's will is, there is still a limit, and there are still weaknesses. What Yuchi Jiong wants to do now, or is doing, is to attract this person's attention, and then concentrate his elite power to punch him.
Hit this weakness.
Let him not be able to live or die!
"Ashun, let's go back." Yuchijiong whispered. The cheers on the top of the city had clearly told him that continuing to delay here would not only have no effect, but might threaten himself.
Yuchi Jiong has been on the battlefield for half his life. Of course, he is not the kind of young man who is eager to lead a charge into battle. He also knows how to cherish his life, or where his life should be used.
In these troubled times, you have to pay attention to value for money!
Just when Yuchi Shun was about to give the order to attack the city, a general rushed to the side of Yuchi and his son, with a look of surprise on his face. While he bowed his hands and saluted, he couldn't help but say: "I'd like to inform the two generals.
, the southern city gate of Zhangshan County suddenly opened, and a group of island barbarian cavalry rushed out, killed our two groups of scouts, and are now heading south!"
"What?!" Yu Chishun didn't believe his ears and raised his head suddenly.
But Yuchi Jiong raised his eyebrows and turned around suddenly, but he heard it clearly.
"Yes, this probably happened half an hour ago." The Northern Zhou general said breathlessly, "The enemy attacked quickly and swiftly. Our two teams of scouts, totaling more than fifty people, were wiped out almost immediately after they met.
If it hadn't been for the delay in waiting for news from them, I'm afraid we would still be kept in the dark."
Yuchi Shun's expression changed, which showed that the enemy sent out not only fifty or even one hundred people, but also ten of them were composed of elite scouts and veterans.
Even if the Northern Zhou army wanted to stop them or even catch up with them, it might not be that simple.
On the city top not far away, the cheers had gradually subsided, and under the flickering firelight, a crossbowman named Nanchen stood solemnly. As long as the Northern Zhou army dared to take a step forward, they would definitely release arrows without hesitation.
arrow.
It was obvious that the Nanchen people in the city had already figured out his plan, and all their pretense and sarcasm before were just to delay time.
The same purpose as Yu Chi.
Yuchijiong delayed for time in order to make the Nanchen people relax their vigilance and to buy the ambush troops a chance to advance. Obviously, the Nanchen general on the city delayed time in order to buy time for the team he sent out to warn.
"I actually expected it..." Yu Chishun murmured in disbelief.
And Yuchi Jiong narrowed his eyes. Even though he had been on the battlefield for many years, he felt an uncontrollable sense of failure and frustration. Facing this little-known young general Nan Chen, his plans and designs turned out to be useless.
.
If one move was missed, Yuchijiong didn't know what the consequences would be. And at this time, he didn't dare to think about it. The entire Northern Zhou army had already started moving, and there was no possibility of stopping!
In an instant, Yuchijiong had the illusion that he might never be able to climb over the small Zhangshan County in front of him.
"Dad, do you want to order the cavalry to pursue us?" Yuchishun said hurriedly.
Yuchi Jiong snorted: "What's there to pursue? People have been running out for half an hour. Even if we send more cavalry, can we catch up? What's more, how can the cavalry of the brigade bypass this Zhangshan County?
city?"
The west side of Zhangshan County City is the continuous Jingshan Mountains. The distance between the city wall and the steep hillside is not very large. It can prevent the enemy from climbing up the hillside to threaten the city, and at the same time, it can also pass through the crossbowmen on the city.
Control the road between the hillside and the city wall.
Therefore, it is difficult for even a large group of soldiers and horses to pass directly to the west of the city, let alone launch an siege on the west side of the city.
"Then we are now..." Yu Chishun knew that his father was in a bad mood and his expression was strangely strange, but he still had to ask this question now.
Yuchijiong looked back at Zhangshan County City, gritted his teeth and said: "I will give you two days to attack the city. After two days, no matter whether the enemy's reinforcements arrive or not, I must walk on the road leading to Jiangling City.
superior!"
Sensing the anger in Yuchi Jiong's voice, all the generals, including Yuchi Shun, had stern expressions. The old general had been in the army all his life. It can be said that he was used to seeing strong winds and waves. There were not many times when he was so angry.
"Prepare the crossbowmen, prepare the trebuchets!" Yuchishun gave the order loudly before he had time to comfort his father. He also knew that the best way to comfort his father was to unscrew the head of the damn Li Xingchen on the wall opposite!
"First team, prepare, ladder, prepare!" Yu Chishun's order echoed in the darkness.
The originally silent army of the Northern Zhou Dynasty suddenly became busy. The neat sea of torches seemed to be blown by the strong wind, and violent waves surged in an instant!
Yuchi Jiong, however, just watched Yuchi Shun issue the order quietly, with no sadness or joy on his face, only the solemn expression before the war. His eyes never left Zhangshan County.
He didn't know if he could make all the soldiers move forward regardless of life and death by issuing a death order, but he knew very well that with the time he wasted just now, the time left for him was getting less and less.
It's not just because I'm getting old and I don't know how long I can wear armor and fight; it's not just because Jiangling City is currently under attack by Nanchen's army and is in danger; but because...
Yuchijiong turned his head for the first time and looked into the darkness behind the sea of torches in the north.
Ever since Yuwen Yong fell ill and ordered his army to slow down their march northward, Yuchi Jiong had an ominous premonition. He knew that he had bad assumptions about His Majesty's health, which was not what a minister should do, but Yuchi Jiong was a member of the Three Dynasties.
Veteran, I know better what it will bring to the entire Northern Zhou Dynasty once something like this happens.
