Chapter 962 Driving Wolves and Tigers

"This group of miscellaneous people, if they dare to come again, they will not be able to come back unless they are killed."

"Fortunately, General Nan, General Ye led the army to come in advance, otherwise, the consequences of this surprise attack by the Turks would be unimaginable!"

Toyosu, the head of the North Gate.

A war had just ended, the beacon fire at the head of the city had not yet been extinguished, and the defenders were still shooting at the Turks who were scrambling to flee.

The armor of the southern road made the blood red, and the Turks who stared at the retreat north waved their swords and cursed.

Zhang Shaoming and Ye Qinghu's faces were also nervous and serious, and they glared at the retreating enemy troops.

At dusk, the second general Ye Qinghu led the army to arrive, and soon after the army was deployed, the Turkic forward army was attacking the city.

Fortunately, reinforcements arrived, galloping to the aid of the defenders to repel the seventh wave of siege troops, and the Tang army still firmly controlled Fengzhou.

"The Turks were damaged in this battle, and they appreciated the martial might of the Tang army, it was time to live in peace for a few days!" Ye Qinghu grabbed the cloak, wiped the blood stains on Bingge, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yes, the Turks are coming again, and I believe that the reinforcements sent by the emperor have also arrived one after another, and at that time, it will happen to have a big fight with King Zuoxian!" Nandao Echo.

This battle won a small victory, but he could not lead the army to chase out of Fengzhou City, which made him feel very sorry.

If the army arrives and leads the army out of the city to pursue, the Turkic elite cavalry who will surely be killed will turn on their horses and win a great victory.

However, Zhang Shaoming's face was heavy, and he said seriously: "General Lan, General Ye, this battle is a small victory, and you still can't take the enemy lightly, Zuo Xianwang and the three of them led the army south, in order to plunder food and wealth, Fengzhou will never be allowed to stand in the north!"

Moreover, the amount of gold and silver stored in Fengzhou was relatively large, and it was regarded as fragrant and sweet by King Zuoxian.

Sooner or later, he'll send the elite back."

Zhang Shaoming did not dare to relax and did not dare to relax his vigilance.

He led his army to garrison Fengzhou for several years, and knew the Turkic style well, both in the past and now.

The Turks, ambitious, eager to swallow elephants.

A defeat could not change the pace of their southern expedition.

Hearing the sound, Ye Qinghu glanced at each other, and Nan Daoming said: "The general knows the Turks better, and we will follow the general's arrangement."

"Everyone is an official in the same dynasty, and now we work together to ensure that Fengzhou is not lost, and whoever has a more reasonable suggestion will take whomever it suggests." Zhang Shaoming did not rely on the old and sell the old, on the contrary, he was very open-minded.

Ye Qinghu, Nandao Ming bowed slightly.

Ye Qinghu shouted to the defenders at the head of the city: "Half of the soldiers bravely return to the camp to rest, half of the soldiers bravely continue to defend the city, everyone cheers up, pay attention to the movements of the Turks, if there is an enemy attack, take out all firearms, bed crossbows, catapults, and give the general a hard beat."

After that, Ye Qinghu continued: "General Zhang, you have been resting day and night, go back to the house as soon as possible to rest, and Ye personally led the army to defend the city for the matter of the North Gate!"

"There's General Laoye!"

Zhang Shaoming didn't shirk anymore, he was really tired, and with the support of the pro-army, he walked down the city.

.......

The Turkic vanguard general Tang Wan led his army back to the barracks and immediately went to the Shuai tent to report the military situation to King Zuoxian.

At dusk, the spies reported that the Tang reinforcements were coming, and there were a large number of them.

At that time, King Zuo Xian had already anticipated that it would be more and more difficult to capture Toyosu City.

But he didn't give up the idea of capturing Toyoju.

Thinking of the south of the road, Ye Qinghu led the army to come on a long journey, the army was tired, and his foothold in Fengzhou was not stable, so he sent Tang Wan to lead the army to break the city as soon as possible.

Unexpectedly, Tang Wan led the army to a fiasco.

He was at the barracks, and witnessed that Tang Wan commanded the advance army before approaching the city, and the Tang army in the city had already launched earth-shattering thunder and threw boulders.

Forcing their way close to the city, the army marched along the ladder to attack the city, and was met with fire, arrows, and crossbow fire.

The more fierce Tang Wan's troops attacked, the more casualties the elite cavalry had.

It's like sending people to the Tang Army!

Knowing Tang Wan's report, King Zuo Xian was already anxious.

With the king of Zuogu Li, Yan Xingjun was divided into three routes to march south, and the other two armies have captured three surrendered cities, Shengzhou.

At present, Hanoi Province, the northern line of Hedong Province, only Fengzhou, Yunzhong two lonely cities, are still lingering.

King Zuo Xian was anxious, not Yan marched, and King Zuo Gu led his army to seize the city.

It really can't break Fengzhou City, and it has a great impact on the southward movement of the army!

After fighting hard at night, the Datang reinforcements went forward one after another, and their strong combat effectiveness exceeded his expectations.

In his expectation, the elite army of the Tang Dynasty was deployed on the western front, the northeast, the Guannei Road, and the Hedong Road, and the strongest defenders were none other than the elite under Zhang Shaoming!

In Chang'an City, there are no more fierce generals and no elite legions.

Last night, the Tang Army, which suddenly came out, was unexpectedly powerful.

What's more, according to his guess, the Tang army will come to relieve the siege at least three days later.

Within three days, the elite under his command could easily capture the city of Toyosu.

Fengzhou fell, the first line of Guannei Road, and there was no longer the strength to contain the Turkic elite cavalry, he led the army to the south, directly approaching Chang'an, the capital division of the Tang Dynasty.

Now, with an unknown number of reinforcements coming, it is no longer possible to take Toyosu in a quick battle.

The army was entangled in the Toyosu line.

If the Tang Dynasty sends more reinforcements, it will inevitably affect the Turks to go south!

"Tang Wan, do you know who leads the Tang Army and who commands it?" Zuo Xianwang's face was gloomy, his fist slammed on the desk, and he asked angrily.

This Tang army suddenly appeared in the city of Fengzhou, disrupting his plans.

Tang Wan hesitated slightly, clasped his fists and saluted: "Lord Wang, the leading generals of this Tang army are Nandao Ming, Ye Qinghu, they once helped Yang Yue to go east, eliminate the Zhenjiang Jiedu envoy, and went to Longyou to conquer Lai Suyuan, a few days ago, they were temporarily mobilized by Yang Yue from the front line.

Although this army is not like the Tiger Cavalry Battalion, the Wolf Cavalry Battalion, and the Leopard Cavalry Battalion, it also fights in the south and the north, and the east and the west, and has very rich combat experience.

Ye Qinghu once followed Yang Yue, from Youzhou to Silla, with great achievements, last night, they cooperated with Zhang Shaoming's remnants of the army, and gave us a head start!

In the future, with this elite here, it is no longer possible to capture Fengzhou City, and the last general advises the prince to deploy in advance as soon as possible!"

Before last night's battle, Tang Wan expected that the siege would be extremely difficult, but he did not expect that the Tang army, under the command of Zhang Shaoming, Nan Daoming, and Ye Qinghu, would have no power to fight back with the elite weapons.

If he hadn't evacuated in advance, his elite might have all been buried under the city of Fengzhou.

When King Zuo Xian heard this, he was secretly annoyed!

He didn't expect Yang Yue to suddenly send this army to the front line, in his impression, except for the six battalions of male soldiers, the rest of the Tang elite army was all straw bales.

The previous battle told him that the combat effectiveness of the Tang Army had already improved by leaps and bounds!

Last night, he despised the Tang Army!

Almost wiped out the advance army!

"Lord Wang, in tonight's battle, the Tang reinforcements suddenly came, and there were more earth-shattering thunders in the city, and the advance army suffered heavy casualties, nearly 3,000 casualties." In the military tent, an adjutant general reports the battle situation to King Zuoxian.
