Chinese General Summoning System

Chapter 483: Confrontation and arrival

When Liu Lin, a puppet bodyguard with peerless general strength, stopped Wudang Mountain protector Yang Yu, Zhang Shaohua's pressure suddenly reduced a lot.

Fighting against the three Wudang Mountain masters with peerless generals, even if they are as strong as Zhang Shaohua, they have to go all out to deal with it. Once they fight for a long time, Zhang Shaohua must be defeated in the end.

Now only the second elder Lei Jin and the fourth elder Chen Tong of Wudang Mountain were left to besiege Zhang Shaohua, and the pressure was suddenly transferred to the two elders of Wudang Mountain.

After Lei Jin and Chen Tong joined forces with Zhang Shaohua for dozens of moves, Lei Jin found that it was impossible to kill Zhang Shaohua, and immediately issued the order to retreat.

Zhang Shaohua didn’t want these people in black who put cold arrows to escape, but at this time the scene in the imperial army’s camp was very chaotic. Although Zhang Shaohua and Liu Lin pursued two elders and a guardian of Wudang Mountain, they belonged to Wudang Mountain. The three men riding horses quickly disappeared from the sight of Zhang Shaohua and Liu Lin.

The cursing Zhang Shaohua had to rejoin with the puppet bodyguard Liu Lin, the horse and a group of Han Dynasty Tiger and Cardiac cavalry led by Wang Ben, and continued to attack the Suzhou Xiang Army in the camp.

In this night attack by the Suzhou Xiang Army, the imperial court army relied on the attack of the squadron cavalry, as well as the fierce resistance of the Forbidden Army, the Jiading troops and the various rebels, and finally drove the Suzhou Xiang Army out of the camp.

However, the imperial army suffered heavy losses during this night attack. The camp that stretched for more than a dozen miles was burned by at least half of the Suzhou Xiang Army, and even the Hussar General He Guangzong’s handsome account was burned.

On the morning of September 17, Dajin 428, in the new handsome tent of Hussar General He Guangzong, He Guangzong asked Hussar General Li Hong with a gloomy expression: "Is the loss counted?"

Li Hong smiled bitterly and said: "The loss is really too great. According to preliminary statistics, the Forbidden Army alone has lost more than 70,000 people. Adding to the previous losses, the 350,000 troops gathered by the Forbidden Army this time have only 20 left. More than 60,000 people, 300,000 families sent by various families, after this night attack by the rebels in Suzhou, there are only about 200,000 left. More than 100,000 people."

After a pause, Li Hong continued: "In addition, most of our army's grain and grass were burned by the Suzhou rebels, but we are backed by the capital, and there is no crisis of food shortage."

He Guangzong couldn't help but feel painful when he heard that he had lost about 250,000 troops overnight. You must know that this time He Guangzong brought about a million troops in total. How long has it been, millions? There is only 710,000 left in the army, and the loss is close to 30%.

With such a large loss, He Guangzong couldn't help but retreat. He Guangzong coughed and asked Li Hong: "General Li, do you think we need to continue to station troops north of Xuanmen Pass? We just got here. In two days, we lost nearly 30% of our troops. If our troops here are exhausted, the capital will be in danger!"

Li Hong hesitated and said: "If we evacuate here, then the front of the rebels in Suzhou will be directed towards the capital. It is better to be more cautious."

He Guangzong thought for a while and said, "Then report last night's loss to the court! Take a look at what the court means?"

At the prison camp north of Xuanmen Pass, Wang Ben sighed and said to Liu Meng, Zhang Shaohua, Chen Hao, and Chen Zhong: "In the battle last night, the combined losses of our cavalry and infantry were more than 800 people. We only have more than 4,200 people left, and if we continue to lose like this, we really have to fight it all."

Liu Meng frowned and said, “Brother Wang, let’s go back to Canglong City first! Even if we stay here, even if we don’t fight, we won’t be able to avoid losses when the rebels in Suzhou attacked the camp. We came to Beijing this time to teach the rebels in Suzhou just Secondly, our most important task is to bring the Zhou Shilang family from the Ministry of Rites back to Chengyin City's General Mansion."

Wang Ben nodded in agreement and said: "Mengzi is justified. We are already in the limelight this time. There is really no need to take the chestnut out of the fire for the people of the court and lose all the elites given to us by the main bus!"

Liu Meng then showed a fierce light in his eyes and said: "The three masked men in black who attacked and killed Brother Zhang last night are probably two elders and a guardian of Wudang Mountain. Before leaving the capital, we have to report back. People from Wudang Mountain."

Zhang Shaohua mumbled at this time: "If it weren't for the three of them who dare not show their faces and run fast enough, I would have cut them all last night!"

Although the night attack by the Suzhou Xiang Army on the imperial army camp has caused considerable losses to the imperial army, the Suzhou Xiang Army itself suffered no small losses.

In the tent of the Suzhou Xiang Army Camp outside Xuanmenguan, the general of Suzhou Xiang Army Zhou Jiling reported to Zhang Mingqihui: "Lord, our Suzhou Xiang Army lost about 150,000 people in the first battle last night, including the cavalry. Nearly 40,000, although most of the camps of the imperial army were destroyed, the night attack last night was a tragic victory at best. Today, several of the 14 guards of our Suzhou Xiang Army near Xuanmenguan have been attacked. Hit hard."

Zhang Mingqi nodded, and then said in a deep voice: "Whether it was a tragic victory or not, at least we won last night!"

Then Zhang Mingqi turned his head and said to the counselor Tang Yan: “Use carrier pigeons to convey the orders of the officials to Zhao Lianjin and Chen Hongxin. Try to draw a part of the army from Suzhou, Qiongzhou and Lianzhou as much as possible to go north to Canglong City and come to Xuanmenguan with our 14 guards. Convergence, since the power of the court is stronger than we thought, then we can only mobilize more troops!"

The counselor Tang Yan then suggested to Zhang Mingqi: "Since the lord is going to deploy troops from the three states in the southeast, it is better to adjust the guards north of Xuanmenguan to the inside of Xuanmenguan and to the south of Xuanmenguan, and use Xuanmenguan. The wall of the city confronts the imperial army, waiting for reinforcements from the three southeastern states to arrive, and then engages in a decisive battle with the imperial army!"

Zhang Mingqi thought for a while and said: "Just follow Mr. Tang's idea, so that we can prevent our Suzhou Xiang Army troops north of Xuanmenguan from being attacked by the imperial army again!"

The court officials in Canglong City learned that the court army had lost about 250,000 people outside Xuanmen Pass overnight. They were shocked, but they did not issue an order to retreat to the remaining court troops outside Xuanmen Pass. On the contrary, under the support of the Taiwei Dou Yan of the Ministry of War, the imperial court sent nearly one hundred thousand more imperial troops, two hundred thousand Jiading troops and another two hundred thousand troops from the Wuluping rebels outside the Xuanmen Pass.

Because the troops of the Suzhou Xiang Army quickly withdrew to the Xuanmen Pass and south of the Xuanmen Pass under the eyes of the imperial army, and the imperial army faced the easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack Xuanmen Pass, and nothing was too good. The way, so from September 17, the Suzhou Xiang Army and the imperial court began a long confrontation at Xuanmenguan.

Of course, neither side was idle during the confrontation. The Suzhou Xiang Army drew part of the army from Suzhou, Qiongzhou, and Lianzhou to Canglong City. The thirteen families on the court also used the time of the confrontation to mobilize more troops. Jiading troops and a large number of young men from all over the place gathered in the Canglong City area.

At the time when the Suzhou Xiang Army confronted the imperial army at Xuanmenguan, thousands of miles away, in the city lord’s mansion of Teboka, the capital of Oren province of Gaochang State, Duke Fawaz, the commander-in-chief of Dawan State , Marquis Feda, the leader of the Cheshi Kingdom, Marquis Younus, the leader of Gaochang State, and Oss, the bishop of the Eastern Diocese of the Holy Flame, are hosting a banquet in honor of the Duke of Laideifei, the commander-in-chief of the reinforcements sent by the Kingdom of Dawan, and the Chesman. The commander-in-chief of the country’s reinforcements, the Duke of Mansour.

After Gao Changguo agreed to the new spoils distribution plan, Dawan added six cavalry regiments, six infantry regiments, 300,000 auxiliary troops, and 200,000 dependent country troops, totaling 1.5 million troops. , As well as the eight legions of the Cheshi Nation and 200,000 armies of the dependent countries, a total of 1.1 million troops, after a long journey, finally arrived in the Oren province of Gaochang.

Only the thirteen legions of the Parthian nation with a total of 1.3 million troops, because many of them were newly formed troops, and the formation of these new troops took a lot of time, so the thirteenth legions of the Parthian nation Not long after the domestic departure.

The Duke of Fawaz of Dawan sighed and said with a wine glass to the commander-in-chief of the reinforcements sent by Dawan: "The strength of the broken army is much stronger than we expected. The few outside the city of Chilis During the battle, three cavalry regiments and eight infantry regiments in our country were maimed, and our auxiliary troops also lost more than 100,000 people. Now the troops in my hand include those from several dependent countries of our country. There are 300,000 people, and there are about 1.5 million. Since coming to Gaochang, the army under my command has lost a full 800,000, alas—"

Duke Ledweyfee said comfortingly: "Duke Favaz, this time His Majesty the King sent me to be your assistant and brought us six cavalry regiments, six infantry regiments, and 300,000 auxiliary soldiers from Dawan. With the army of 200,000 dependent countries, I believe that under the leadership of Duke Fawaz, we will definitely avenge the soldiers of Dawan and the soldiers of the other three countries!"

Duke Favaz of Dawan is the younger brother of King Yeman, so although Duke Favaz has lost his troops on the front line, King Yeman did not intend to replace Duke Favaz. This time King Yeman dispatched Duke Ledwyfey. Bringing 1.5 million troops to help, the supreme commander of Dawan on the front line is still Duke Fawaz, and Duke Ledwey, who is leading the troops, will become the deputy commander.

However, the situation on the Cheshi Nation side is different. The commander of the Cheshi Nation’s reinforcements, the Duke of Mansour, calmly said to the former leader of the Cheshi Nation, the Marquis Feda: "The Marquis of Fida, according to the order of His Majesty the King. , I will replace you as the commander-in-chief of our Che Division Country."

The Marquis of Feda smiled bitterly, nodded and said: "The Duke of Mansour, my ten legions and the armies of the dependent countries, there are nearly 350,000 left. After this banquet, I will give The command of these troops is given to you!"

The Duke of Mansour said immediately: "Marquis Feida, then you will be wronged to act as my deputy for the time being! Once we have completely defeated the Trapped Army, presumably His Majesty the King will no longer care about your previous mistakes."

The Marquis of Feda sighed and said, "I lost 850,000 troops in a short period of time. What your Majesty the King does with me cannot be overstated, alas—"

The Duke of Mansour comfortably patted the Marquis Feda on the shoulder, then turned his head and said to the Duke of Fawaz of Dawan: "Duke Fawaz, this time I brought the eight legions and 2nd legions of our country. With 100,000 troops from the dependent countries, totaling 1.1 million, plus the 350,000 in the hands of the Marquis of Feida, our Cheshi Nation has more than 1.45 million troops, while Dawan Nation It also has an army of three million. With the strength of our two countries’ armies, I think we already have the strength to defeat the Squadron. It is better to attack the Squadron as soon as possible to end this war as soon as possible.”

Duke Favaz frowned and said: "According to the information we have obtained, the smashing forces are likely to gather nearly three million troops in the Shakhtinsk, Hohhot and Lisakos provinces of the Gaochang State. ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Even if the armies of our two countries add up, they occupy an absolute advantage in military strength, but if our two armies only fight against the squadrons, the losses of our two armies will be very large, and it may be That number of casualties is unacceptable to either of our two countries, so I think we should wait for the 1.3 million troops of the Parthian nation to arrive before studying the issue of fighting against the squadrons."

At this time, the leader of Gao Changguo, Marquis Yunus, said with a gloomy look: "Duke Favaz, Duke Mansour, please don't forget, this time is the alliance of the four powers of the Western Regions and the Sundering Army. In the battle, at this time in the province of Oren, we Gao Changguo also gathered ten legions, nearly a million troops!"

Yunus was originally the Earl of Gaochang State, but last time Yunus took the four Gaochang State Army regiments that entered Lisakos province and ran very fast. They suffered heavy losses in Dawan, Chashi, and Anxi. However, the losses of the four Gaochang regiments were not great, so the king of Gaochang Mujhid raised Yunus's title by one level, from earl to marquis.

Yunus now has a great resentment towards Dawan, Cheshi, and Anxi. Under the strong pressure of these three countries, Gaochang has promised that after the war, Zhu Qiguo, who was under the jurisdiction of the former Eastern Metropolitan Government, will be attached to fifteen affiliated countries. Ownership of the country and more than 30 independent city-states around it belongs to the Kingdom of Dawan.

In addition, it will also attribute the ownership of thirteen dependent states such as Langley and more than 20 independent city-states under the jurisdiction of the former Oriental Dudu Mansion to Cheshi Nation, and Smoscoe, the easternmost part of the Eastern Dudu Mansion of Gaochang The ownership of the provinces, Barkol, and Mazhatage belong to the Parthian state.

If it weren't for Gao Changguo's current army's lack of strength, Yunus would want to directly attack the army of Dawan, Cheshi, and Parthian. These three countries are really bullying!
