Chapter 192 Attack!attack!
"What? Yang You has arrived in Yulin? He also encountered the troops from Tasur?" Jia Ying said in amazement after hearing Mu Enci's report.

Mu Enci nodded: "That's right, according to the scouts, the army in Yulin was the army of more than [-] people led by King Yang You of Suzhong County. After the defeat of Tasur, they fled to Dongsheng City. Now Guihua, Yun The Xiongnu army in the direction of Sichuan and Dongsheng is marching towards Yulin, preparing to besiege the army of King Suzhong."

If so, then Yang You is in danger.

Jia Ying immediately made a decision and said, "The 3000 Jinyang guards are left to stay behind at Pianguan. The troops from the Xiang army camp and the Shenyang middle guards leave immediately. Let's go to Yulin. In addition, send someone to report the situation in Yulin to Governor Wang."

Jia Ying had a premonition that the next step would be to see the battle of Yulin determine whether the situation in Datong Town could be resolved.

After seizing a large number of war horses from Zhazhibu, the Hunan Army Battalion has completely changed its guns, and has completely become a full-scale cavalry unit. Let alone whether there is cavalry combat power, at least the speed of marching has been greatly improved.

In addition to the [-] cavalry guards from Shenyang who came later, Jia Ying once again gathered a cavalry army of [-] people and rushed towards Yulin without stopping.

The situation faced by Yang You's army retreating to Yulin is indeed not optimistic.

Although most of the soldiers and horses on the left of the Huns were distributed in Datong Town, the number of soldiers and horses staying in Guihua, Yunchuan, Dongsheng and other places still exceeded [-], because King Zuo Tuqi's tent was set up in Guihua. Huacheng, while King Zuoguli is in Dingbian City in Datong, the distance between the two places is not more than a hundred miles.

In addition, there are [-] main forces of the Xiongnu King's Department stationed near Liangcheng (the other [-] troops are stationed near Xuanhua Mansion).

Yang You reacted quickly after the surprise attack plan failed, and ordered the army to repair the fortifications of Yulin City on the spot. Although Yulin is not big, it is more than enough to accommodate 8000 people.

Moreover, there is sufficient water in Yulin City, enough to rely on this earthen city to stop the Huns' cavalry.

The only worry right now is that they are running out of food and grass, and once the Huns have been besieged for half a month, the army will face starvation to death.

Fortunately, they met the scouts from the Hunan Army Battalion, so they were not alone and helpless.

Outside Yulin City, the Xiongnu soldiers and horses nearby had gathered at this moment and launched several tentative attacks. After encountering strong resistance from the former army, they temporarily stopped the attack and chose to encircle it instead.

At the same time, Agujin, the leader of the left part of the Xiongnu, Tasur's father Khan, and Zuotuqi King Agujin also came outside Yulin City in person.

What alarmed him was not the sudden appearance of Yang You's army, but Tasur's sudden withdrawal from the side pass.

In his plan, the partial pass is a key link related to whether the Xiongnu army can completely break through the Qianren Shanxi defense line. Now there seems to be a problem with this key point.Because of this, Agujin, who is the king of Hun Tuqi, rushed over in a hurry.

"Father Khan, it is Shu Wu who carelessly underestimates the enemy. Before he found out that there was still an elite army of more than [-] people in Shanxi, he rashly divided his troops and was defeated by the army. When the boy arrived, Shu Wudu's army has been wiped out by the Gan army, and Shuwudu himself died in battle. Taking advantage of the boy's unsteady foothold, the Gan army pretended to be Shuwudu's men and horses to open the gate of the city, and the boy was defeated in battle. We can only lead our troops to retreat.”

Tasul knelt on the ground, crying to Agujin who was sitting in the big tent with a sad face: "Father Khan, the child has disgraced you, please punish!"

After hearing Tasur's cry, Agujin didn't rush to make a conclusion, but stared at Tasur with sharp eyes like a falcon, trying to see whether what he said was true.

"Nonsense! Tasur, I think you are trying to justify your own failure and blame Shuwudu for all your faults!"

Just at this time, the curtain of the big tent was lifted, and a 30-year-old man with a strong physique and a resolute face walked in, his expression was full of anger.

"Battle, what do you mean? Are you saying that I am deceiving Father Khan? If you don't make it clear today, I will fight you!" After hearing the voice, Tasur knew who it was.

It was his elder brother, Agujin's most outstanding and valued son, Zuogu Li King Borzigit Hardanbaatar.

Hadanbaatar means a resolute hero in the Hun language. Agujin gave him this name, which shows his expectations and hopes for this son.

Tuqi means virtuous in the Hun language.King Zuo Tuqi is actually King Zuo Xian.

Zuo Xianwang is generally held by the son of the Great Khan of the Huns, and is the first heir to the position of the Great Khan in the future.Although King Youxian is also of the blood of the Golden family, but in terms of blood relationship, he is far away from the Great Khan of the Huns, and his rank is lower than King Zuoxian, and even to a certain extent, he is not as noble as King Zuoguli.Because King Zuoguli is the first successor of King Zuotuqi, if he is placed in Dagan, he will be the grandson of the emperor, and the future crown prince will be the one who may ascend to the throne.

Both are Agujin's sons, one is extremely precious, and the other is the object of ridicule by everyone. Naturally, they have little affection for each other and hate each other.

"Father Khan, Shu Wudu wrote to me twelve days ago, saying that his army had arrived at Ningwu Pass, and he just waited for the follow-up reinforcements to arrive to attack Ningwu together. We have already reached the partial pass, but we have not rushed to Ningwu to join Shuwudu. It is clearly because you did not move that led to the annihilation of the entire Zhazhi army. It was Tasur who personally ruined the lives of tens of thousands of warriors of our Huns! Father Khan , Tasur should be damned, he must give Zhazibu an explanation!" Battelle ignored Tasur, but turned to Agujin and said.

"Battelle, don't slander me. It's clearly the result of my arrogance. I can't put the shit on my head." Tasur stared at Battelle angrily.

Hearing this, Battelle turned his head and looked at Tasur with contemptuous eyes, and asked, "You said it was because Shuwudu underestimated the enemy, so let me ask you, Shuwudu arrived in Ningwu twelve days ago, and you I arrived at Pianguan eight days ago, why didn't I join Shuwudu? Even though Shuwudu divided troops to raise food, there are still 5000 soldiers and horses under your command, plus the 5000 you led, tens of thousands of Huns The warrior is enough to face any former army undefeated, why did you come back alive, but Shuwudu was completely wiped out?"

Tasul's heart tightened, and he tried to stabilize his mind, not letting himself appear flustered, and said: "Battle, Shanxi is not a grassland, where there are deep ditches and dense forests, it is not conducive to our army's actions. Don't hurt when you talk while standing. You said that I stood still, and I still have to ask you, why did you order Shuwudu and not allow him to give me a grain of food, my soldiers can't even eat enough, how you let them march and how to fight, I can see clearly It is you who want to put me to death! You should also take responsibility for Shu Wudu's death!"

"I didn't give him such an order, don't you have to find excuses to excuse yourself!" Battelle said with a grim expression.

"Hmph! If it wasn't for your order, would Shuwu have the guts to withhold my food?" Tasur retorted.

"you"

"enough!"

A Gujin interrupted the dispute between the two of them with anger on his face, and said with a dignified face: "Shu Wu has no command, and he is greedy for merit and advances, causing tens of thousands of warriors of our Huns to die. I will report this matter to the Great Khan." , Zajibu needs to bear all the culpability for this failure."

"Father Khan!" Battelle exclaimed with an expression of disbelief.

Shu Wu is his supporter, and Agujin's doing so is tantamount to pronouncing the demise of the Zhazhi tribe in advance. After the war is over, the Zhaji tribe will have to face the end of being divided up. How can Battelle be reconciled.

"Don't say it! At this time, I have my own conclusions. It is not the fault of the Zhazhi tribe, is it the fault of my Tuqi royal tribe? Someone must bear the responsibility for the defeat. The dignity of Zuo Tuqi royal tribe, No harm is allowed!"

Agujin looked at Battelle with an inexplicable expression and said in a cold voice.

He really liked Battelle, because the father and son teamed up to give him a greater voice in the royal court.But in recent years, as he got older, Battelle's power seemed a little too strong. Among the left of the Huns, the tribes that supported Battelle were almost catching up with him, which made Agujin feel a little uneasy. .

Because of this, he let the Zuo Guli King's Department be the vanguard of this attack, the purpose is to consume the strength of his own son.

As for the real reason for Shuwudu's defeat?
Now, is it important to talk about it?
However, he did not fully believe Tasur's words. He knew about the struggle between the two sons.

Agujin had more than 30 sons in his life. Except for those who died in battle, there were more than a dozen of them left. But these sons seemed to be surrounded by Battelle. Only this youngest son, Tasur, was isolated by everyone because of his Han blood. up.

Agujin needs someone to contain Battelle at this moment.

He is over fifty years old, and his body is no longer as strong as before, but the Great Khan of the Huns, his father in his 70s, is still in good health.

The relationship between father and son on the grassland is not as harmonious as that of the people in the Central Plains. This time the Xiongnu suffered a disaster on the left and had to attack Dagan, but his father Khan did not send a single soldier to join the battle.

What is the reason for this, Agujin naturally understands, just like the relationship between him and Battelle at the moment.

"Tasul, I have decided to reward you with the Zhazhibu. After returning to the grassland, you can form your own tribe." Agujin looked at Tasur and said lightly.

Tasur was overjoyed when he heard the words. After so many years of forbearance, he could finally have his own tribe.

At this moment, instead, he thanked Jia Ying for helping him destroy Shuwudu.

"Father Khan."

Just when Battelle was about to say something, he heard a noisy voice outside the big tent, and a soldier came to report: "King Zuo Tuqi, the Dagan people are coming!"

When the father and son heard the words, they were startled, and hurriedly picked up their weapons and walked out of the tent.

"Father Khan, those are Jia Ying's soldiers!"

Tasul saw the commander-in-chief of the Gan army, and said to Agujin who was beside him: "Father Khan, this place is dangerous. After the child is broken for you, you should leave here first."

"Besides the frontier army, since when did Dagan have such a powerful cavalry?" Agujin looked at the Dagan army rushing towards them and exclaimed.

"Father Khan, it's important to leave here first." Battelle on the side also said aloud.

Yang You, who was trapped in Yulin City, also saw the cavalry suddenly appearing on the grassland, and shouted to his subordinates: "Brothers, our reinforcements have arrived, come out with me, and kill these Xiongnu wolf cubs! Kill them!" !"

On the other side, Jia Ying hurried and hurried, and finally arrived before the Xiongnu army surrounded Yulin City, and led the army to charge when the Huns were unprepared.

"Brothers, the time has come to make contributions, the time has come to avenge the people of Datong, kill!"

"kill!"

The army brought by Agujin to besiege Yulin was less than 2 people. At this moment, Jia Ying's 6000 army, together with the more than [-] cadres led by Yang You, under the front and back attacks, the Huns did not have the upper hand. The melee began.

The advantage of the Xiongnu cavalry lies in the speed of the horses. Now, facing the situation of flanking front and back, they can only retreat continuously. Agujin saw that the situation was unfavorable, and under the escort of a group of personal guards, he left the battlefield ahead of time and headed towards Guihua City. and go.

"Tasul, you are a sinner in the grassland, Changshengtian will punish you!"

Before leaving, Battelle said a word to Tasur viciously. In his opinion, if Tasur hadn't lost the side pass, he might have brought his subordinates to herd horses in Shanxi at this moment. Tasur's Sins cannot be forgiven.

Large-scale field battles with concentrated forces are not what the Xiongnu cavalry are good at, because their weapons and equipment are far behind those of the large army. It cannot cause much damage to the well-protected dry army.On the contrary, the army of Dagan is the most suitable for the combat method of the large army. From the beginning, Jia Ying did not give the Xiongnu cavalry the opportunity to distance themselves, allowing the opponent to use their speed and archery advantages to fatigue the army, harass it, and divide and encircle it. Instead, they posted it as quickly as possible, and the two sides fought fiercely.

The firearms battalion led by Xu Kui was on the sidelines to contain the formed Xiongnu cavalry gathered from the periphery. Whether it was firecrackers or tiger cannons, the shooting distance was farther than that of arrows. Although the distance was too long, the firearms were lost. Accurate head, but even so, the huge roar alone is enough to deter the remaining horses of the Huns cavalry.

Yang You, who was extremely aggrieved, had already released himself at this moment, and led the cavalry under his command to kill indiscriminately. Where there were many Huns, he led them to disperse them, without giving the Hun cavalry a chance to gather.

Seeing the increasingly unfavorable situation, the Xiongnu cavalry finally began to break out of the siege, relying on the speed of their horses to get rid of the entanglement of the Qian army, and fled in the direction of naturalization.

"Hahaha! Jia Ying, if your motherfucker is late, you will have to collect the third master's body!" Yang You, whose armor was stained with blood, felt like he was alive after a catastrophe, waiting for the Huns to retreat. , met Jia Ying from a distance, and gave him a bear hug.

"Aren't you guarding Jingyuan? Why did you suddenly appear here?" Jia Ying asked curiously after punching Yang You in the chest.

"Don't you know the news about the victory in Yansui?" Yang You asked curiously.

Jia Ying shook her head and said, "I just sent someone to write to Governor Wang a few days ago, but I haven't received a reply yet."

Hearing this, Yang You immediately became interested, and said to Jia Ying with joy, "Wang Ziteng has transferred back the [-] defenders of Gansu Town and took over the defense of Jingyuan and Ningxia. Seeing this, Wang Ziteng rushed out from Yansui with his troops, and was caught off guard, and the Huns were defeated and left."

While speaking, he suddenly sighed again and said: "The great victory of Yansui, the third master won the first prize, and he was going to show off to you, but he didn't expect that you are better than the master, so he just relied on his own strength to take back the victory." It's off the mark. Fortunately, the master's contribution is not small, and he didn't make you look better than before."

"The total number of defenders in Gansu Town is less than [-]. If [-] are transferred away, what will happen to the land west of Ganliang River?" Jia Ying worried.

Yang You spread his hands helplessly and said, "Naturally, I handed it over to the Huns. Otherwise, what should I do? Wang Ziteng doesn't have any extra soldiers and horses, so how can the siege of Yansui be solved? As for Gansu, Wang Ziteng left 1 There are more than [-] people, let them stick to the town of Gansu. As for the land on the west of the river, it is originally a desolate and barren place. As long as Gansu Town is still under our control, let them make trouble in other places, and wait for the enemies on the eastern front to clean up. Hurry up, it won't be too late to go back and deal with them."

Jia Ying thought about it carefully, and nodded involuntarily. Wang Ziteng's decision is worthy of the name of the governor. Not everyone can do the act of cutting off the wrists of a strong man. Once it fails, the people in Gansu Town More than 1 frontier soldiers will become the meat of the Huns, and the land of Hexi will be completely lost to the enemy.

Fortunately, the progress on the Eastern Front was fairly smooth, and Wang Ziteng was able to give the court a reasonable explanation afterwards.

"What should I do next? Originally, I was going to launch another surprise attack, but I didn't expect to run into Tasur. Now I think about the surprise attack, but if I just withdraw like this, I will always feel unwilling. How about we chase after him?" In the past, gritted your teeth and cut off Agujin's central army?" Yang You eagerly asked.

Jia Ying also lowered her head and pondered for a moment, then shook her head and said, "Agujin probably won't stay in Naturalization anymore."

"How to say?" Yang You asked curiously.

"His soldiers and horses are all in the territory of Datong at the moment, and there are not many troops left near the five cities of Guihua Dongsheng. It was because my army was suppressed inside the Great Wall, so they don't have to worry about the Chinese army. The security of the account. Now it is different." Jia Ying said.

"Then what should we do? The battle in Datong is related to the success or failure of the entire battle situation. We can mobilize limited troops, and it is impossible to defeat the enemy one by one." Speaking of this, Yang You not only frowned.

Jia Ying nodded and said, "That's right. If you want to regain Datong, you have to force Agujin to retreat. It's a pity that no one knows where Batu Wendusu's golden tent is, otherwise we can put some thought into it."

"Before I set off, I heard from Wang Ziteng that the 100 main force of the Xiongnu Royal Court is stationed in Liangcheng, which is only more than [-] miles away. Why don't we go there and try?" Yang You eagerly asked.

Jia Ying smiled wryly and said: "You are a prince after all, haven't you heard that a gentleman does not stand in danger? We are just a few people, what can we do if we go away? Beware of meat buns beating dogs."

"This doesn't work, that doesn't work. Are you just waiting here? Jia Ying, my surname is Yang after all. I can't just watch the land that my ancestors conquered be ruined by them." Yang You was a little annoyed.

"My lord, what do you think this is?" Babu Shou ran over from a distance, and handed Jia Ying an arrow feather with a piece of cloth nailed to it.

Jia Ying took the arrow feather, took off the cloth on it, and asked Babu Shou, "Where did it come from?"

Babu Shou replied: "It was brought back by the scouts who went out to guard. They said that a Hun cavalry shot an arrow at him and then turned and left. But he didn't shoot anyone, but shot on the horse's butt."

Jia Ying opened the cloth, and there seemed to be two words written in blood on it: Dingbian.

Jia Ying stared at these two words and pondered for a moment, then a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said to Yang You: "Notice, the army will set off immediately, targeting the border town. In addition, send a team of sentry cavalry to investigate the situation and see How many Huns are there nearby?"

"Yes!" Babu Shou responded and left.
