Chapter 2084 Mobei Storm (Twenty-one) Raid

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    From Dingbeicheng to Tujue Yazhang, it is more than 600 miles away, during which time one has to cross the Duluo River and the Changgen River.

    With a distance of six hundred miles, the prairie cavalry would usually arrive in four or five days, but now in the ice and snow, it was like a chasm or a chasm, and the horses could not move. If everyone wanted to reach, they had to move forward with their lives.

    But these tens of thousands of soldiers hurriedly traveled 600 miles to the Turkic tents, and went into battle without using any logistics points or repairs. No one could guarantee how much combat power they would have left in the end.

    Zheng Yanqing thought hard and thought about good strategies, and finally thought of the sledge they had used in Fengzhou.

    It is difficult to travel on horseback, and it is also inconvenient to move a horse-drawn cart. It is better to ride a sledge on the frozen river.  The river is frozen and cannot be broken even by hitting it with an iron pestle.  It is completely frozen, several feet thick, and horses pulling sledges can walk on the river without any obstruction.

    This sledge is also easy to use.  The Sui army carried a large number of carts, and after removing the wheels below, they became sledges.  And when it's time to use the car, put the wheels on it, and it's a big car again.  This time bxwxco . co m Zhang Si

    (Ancient wheels are divided into rims, hubs, and spokes. They have bearings and are removable, but they are not the current ball bearings, but wooden bearings, bronze bearings, iron bearings, or bearings that combine wood and iron)&#24378&#29306&#  32&#98&#120&#119&#120&#99&#111&#46&#99&#111&#109&#32&#35835&#29306

    Everyone was overjoyed when they heard this and immediately started modifying these big cars.

    By switching to sledges, the burdens on the horses and soldiers were all reduced, and the marching speed was greatly accelerated.

    The Duluo River flows under Dingbei City.  The soldiers of the three armies boarded sledges from here and headed west.  The entire team meandered on the ice like a speeding train, moving at full speed.

    The Duluo River turned from the southeast to the northwest, and everyone followed the twists and turns.

    ??In fact, the Duluo River merges into the Changgen River. The Sui army advanced along the river and could directly reach the vicinity of the Turkic Yazhang.  But this is too tortuous, and the road ahead will be twice as long.  So after the Sui army followed the Duluo River in a zigzag shape, they turned again from the Kuer River, a tributary of the Duluo River.

    Going southwest along the Kur River, although it is not possible to reach the Turkic Yazhang directly, the closest point is only a few dozen miles away from the Yazhang.

    Victory is in sight, that¡¯s it.

    No one would have thought that the Sui army would brave such a heavy snowstorm to advance, so there were no Turkic sentries or scouting horses in the entire area between the Duluo River and the Changgen River.

    In fact, with this kind of spooky weather, everyone thought this year¡¯s war was over.

    Even Ashina Qilifu and Ashina Dubi have begun to compete for control of the Eastern Turks.  Everyone is busy gathering alliances, attacking dissidents, dividing opponents, and digesting strength.

    It¡¯s just that you didn¡¯t do a good job of defense.

    Nearly 40,000 troops marched all the way to the west bank of the Kur River, then reloaded their sledges into carts and launched a surprise attack on the Turkic tents.

    After a day of forced march, everyone arrived at the east bank of the Longgen River. The Yazhang on the opposite side was almost in sight.

    Zheng Yanqing did not rush to attack, but ordered his soldiers to rest for a day to reserve their strength.

    The river is frozen, and the Changgen River, the former eastern barrier of the Turkic Yazhang, is now almost undefended.

    In this battle, Zheng Yanqing divided his 40,000 troops into four.  Wei Yunqi and Sun Cixu each led a part of the Han army and Tiele army in Mobei, about 10,000 people, and went north along the Changgen River.  Wei Yun's troops were to attack as the main attack, while Sun Cixu's troops were to take a detour to the north of the Turkic tent to intercept possible reinforcements or the retreating Turkic troops.

    The main force of the Anbei Army coming from the south was also divided into two by Zheng Yanqing. He and Zuohu Benlang General Hu Luda each commanded a Han army and Hu cavalry.  Among them, Zheng Yanqing's troops were located in front of Yazhang as the main offensive, while Hulvda led his troops to detour to the south of Yazhang, from the direction of Lujin Mountain and Muzhuling, and diagonally inserted in the direction of Yudujin Mountain to prevent the Turks from escaping westward.

    With this kind of horrible weather, movement is inconvenient, and no one knows whether the two intersecting troops can be in place in time.  However, if no intervening or blocking troops are set up, some enemy troops will inevitably flee.

    Therefore, in order to maximize the results of the victory, Zheng Yanqing could not take into account the possible risks.

    It was also Zheng Yanqing's good luck. Neither Ashina Qilifu nor Ashina Dubi, nor even Li Xiaoxing and Ashina Tulin were stationed in the city.

    The Turkic Yazhang is the symbol of the Turkic Khan. Whoever occupies this place will have a righteous destiny.  Therefore, both Ashinatlifu and Ashinadubi wanted to occupy this place and issue orders.

    But after all, there is only one Yazhang, and no matter who it is given to, the other one is not willing to give it. If both parties are stationed together and stationed in the same city, they will not trust each other.

    ? ?At this time, the foreign troubles between the two sides have not disappeared, and the Sui army may attack at any time next year. The two sides do not dare to completely quarrel, so in the end, both sides had to take a step back and find a compromise. They each sent thousands of cavalry to garrison in Yazhang.  , guarding Princess Yicheng and her son, but neither of them entered the tent.

    So the two sides camped ten miles away from their tents, one in the north and the other in the west.

    The two of them didn't dare to enter, even more so if Ashina suddenly wanted to enter.  With his status and strength, he is not qualified to compete for the position of Great Khan.

    As for Li Xiaoxing, although he wanted to rely on Jiancheng, he was unwilling to wade into the muddy water and became a target, so the two troops camped ten miles south of Yazhang City.

    The three parts are like three tripods, supporting each other and checking and balancing each other.

    The Sui army came from afar and did not bring any siege equipment.  Although the city wall of Yazhang is just a low earth wall compared to the big cities in the Central Plains, the city wall is a city wall after all, and it is impossible for the Sui army to fly over.

    If there is a stalemate on the city wall, the consequences are unpredictable.

    But the internal chaos of the Turks and the distrust of Ashinaqlifu and Ashina Dubi gave the Sui Dynasty an opportunity.

    According to the plan, Zheng Yanqing and Wei Yunqi rushed to the Ashina Tulin and Li Xiaoxing Camps in the south and the Ashina Qilifu Camp in the north.

    Ashina Dubi has few soldiers and poses little threat. Zheng Yanqing even felt that if Ashina Dubi heard that Ashina Liver was being attacked, not only would he not come to rescue him, but he would add insult to injury.

    The Sui army originally planned to launch a surprise attack at night.

    It was the middle of the month, and the moonlight shone brightly on the snow.  It can not only ensure the suddenness of the surprise attack, but also ensure the visibility.

    But no one expected that before the planned attack, scattered snowflakes suddenly fell from the sky.  The snow fell heavier and heavier, and soon it drifted and blocked everyone's sight.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? It¡¯s about to launch a general attack, and suddenly it starts to snow. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    Zheng Yanqing was also secretly shocked. This battle was simply too unsatisfactory.

    "However, Zheng Yanqing never thought of stopping the attack. The battle had progressed to this point, and he had overcome all kinds of difficulties and dangers. All he needed was the last tremor. Let alone snow, even if there was a mountain of swords and a sea of ??fire ahead, he still had to rush through it.  Zhida z.com Zhixiao

    Zheng Yanqing didn't wait any longer. If he waited any longer, it would only hurt people's hearts, so he directly ordered a general attack.

    Halfway through the second update on the evening of November 19, following Zheng Yanqing¡¯s order, tens of thousands of Sui troops finally began to launch a general attack on the Turkic tent
