Chapter 496 Duke Yun’s summons order

The situation is becoming increasingly tense, and frequent troop mobilizations are taking place both in the northern grassland and in the entire Yunzhou.

"According to the reports from the spies, there is a high probability that the Tatars will choose this area for a decisive battle!" Gu Hai drew a big circle on the map.

"This is a large grassland, enough to field hundreds of thousands of troops. At the same time, there is a river passing through here, which can provide water for the army."

The Tatars may have been frightened by what happened in Chilechuan. They did not choose Woye Town, which was very close to Death Prisoner Mountain. Instead, they moved their troops eastward and mainly aimed at Fuming Town.

News also came from the other end of Yuyi Town that the forces belonging to King Youxian on the opposite side were moving westward.

It seems that the Tatars do not want to extend the front.

This is not good news.

The Tatars' current strength far exceeds that of the Yunzhou defenders. If they extend the front line, Gu Nanxi can defend the city and fight an offensive and defensive battle.

The tall city walls of Yunzhou Seven Towns can make up for the lack of military strength to a certain extent.

Obviously, the other party didn't want Gu Nanxi to have such an advantage! So they concentrated their efforts and turned the lines into points!

Gu Hai: "According to their marching habits, the troops should be divided into three groups."

The Tatars are united, but their unity is limited.

With the three pillars of Khan and the wise kings on the left and right, it is impossible for them to have only one main force!

What's more, the investment of hundreds of thousands of troops forced them to divide their forces!

Otherwise, hundreds of thousands of people would be crowded in one line, and a stampede accident could cause panic or even mutiny.

Similarly, facing the opponent's three menacing iron fists, it was impossible for Gu Nanxi to stay in the city and not get out.

Because even if the opponent fills it with human lives or corpses, it will be enough for them to climb the city wall!

Once a point is breached, the rout will follow that point and spread to the entire surface like a spider web.

Therefore, Gu Nanxi had to leave Fuming Town and push the front as far forward as possible, so as to gain enough room for herself and Yunzhou behind her.

It can be said that this is a decisive battle forced by the situation.

The competition between the two sides is whose fist is stronger!

Those strategies can only come into play after both parties arrive at this meat grinding ground.

Everyone in the conference room was in a very heavy mood.

Yunzhou's military strength is too small. The opponent claims to have an army of 500,000. After excluding water and logistics, even if only 300,000 are actually put into the battlefield, it is still twice the strength of Yunzhou!

It is impossible for Yunzhou to send out all the soldiers, and some of them must be left to defend the seven towns of Yunzhou and prevent the other party from sneak attacks.

After this calculation, the available troops will be even less!

Just when everyone was frowning, the order from Kyoto arrived in Yunzhou in the night.

"The Holy One has decreed that Duke Ji is the general of the Fu army and will soon bring 50,000 reinforcements to help Duke Yun defend Yunzhou!"

"At the same time, His Majesty also ordered the requisition of grain from each state, gathered it in Kyoto, and sent it to Yunzhou."

"The Holy One has said that this is a time of life and death for the Great Zhou Dynasty. Duke Yun is the only hope for the entire Great Zhou Dynasty. I hope that Duke Yun will disregard past grudges and put the people of the world first! The entire Great Zhou Dynasty will be your backing!"


After speaking, the envoy handed Gu Nanxi a defense map.

Gu Nanxi opened it and everyone took a look. This is a defense plan written by Ji Guogong who summoned his generals overnight and discussed it.

It is marked on it how many garrison troops are sent to each town, which general is responsible for arriving on which day, everything is detailed.

Gu Hai and Gu Shisan studied for a long time, but found no mistakes or omissions: "Ji Guo Gong once served as...the general of the rear army. He is not very good at attacking cities, but he can still defend the city."
< br>

Gu Shisan: "The only question now is whether Duke Ji can arrive in Yunzhou on time before the war begins."

The decree clearly stated that Gu Nanxi should be confident and bold and take all the generals of Yunzhou to the battlefield.

Of course, since His Majesty handled things so beautifully this time, he naturally followed the procedure and asked Gu Nanxi to arrange the troops and report the war plan to the Kyoto court.

Considering the urgency of the situation, the Holy Father also said that these materials should be handed over to the imperial envoy Wang Jiuhe who was still in Yunzhou without waiting for the court's approval.

It can be said that regardless of the past grudges and grudges, the young emperor's response this time is quite qualified, and he can even get full marks!

Wang Buxi's eyes sparkled, he understood the cunning and deceit of those people best, even if the other party's words were ridiculous, he would still keep a hold of them.

"General, no matter whether Duke Ji can arrive in time, I suggest that you should leave some of your own people behind, even if there are only a few thousand!"

These reinforcements don't just have to guard the seven towns of Yunzhou. If the battle is fierce on the general's side, these reinforcements will be reckless!

Does Ji Guo Gong dare to be reckless?

Wang Buxi would rather treat a gentleman with a villain's heart. If Ji Guogong is unwilling to work hard at that time, as long as Yunzhou has thousands of his own soldiers and the people of Yunzhou, he can be forced to work hard!

After Gu Nanxi thought for a moment, she also felt that the rear area could not be completely left to others: "Let Alchuan stay with five thousand soldiers. Besides, the troops are not enough, aren't there still grassland ministries?!"

Boss Li curled his lips. Those grassland people could only play with the wind. When encountering such an upright meat grinding ground, they would run as far as they could.

However, the general had confidence in them, so Boss Li sent many of his men to deliver the message across the vast prairie!

The grassland is vast and endless. In order to summon all the grassland ministries as soon as possible, Boss Li sent the grassland soldiers headed by Abu Riji.

Each of them only had a piece of white paper in their hand, which stated the reason for the matter and the need for help from the grassland tribe. The final signature was Gu Nanxi's signature and was stamped with the seal of Duke Yun.

"Sign up now. Which tribes can you find?"

Abu Riji quickly completed the registration and assigned tasks to each of the messengers. He then rode on his restless horse and said harshly.

"We have experienced the cruelty of the Tatars! This time, it is the test of our grassland people by the general, and the test of our grassland people by the entire Yunzhou! If you can't bring back the tribesmen, don't come back! We prairie people can’t afford this shame!”

After saying this, Aburiji rode his horse and ran deep into the grassland without looking back.

The summer wind ruffled his hair, and the smell of grass was on the tip of his nose. The freedom of running could not soothe the anxiety in his heart.

The general has too few soldiers!

The Han people like to pay attention to the right time, place and people when fighting. The grassland is the superior battlefield of the Tatars, not the Han people!

Without any geographical advantage, the difficulty of combat will rise sharply with every tenth of troops missing!

In terms of logistics and supplies, the Tatars have the Sixteenth Prefecture of Youyun as their back, and the general has the Yun Prefecture as their back, so they can be evenly matched.

The main gap now is still in military strength!

Abrizji gritted his teeth and wanted to go faster!
