Chapter 503 No reinforcements!
Gu Hai left Gu Shisan behind and stationed himself on the south bank of the Baihe River to attract the attention of King Zuo Xian. He led 5,000 people and quietly moved northward from the back of the camp under the cover of night.
The most difficult thing about marching on the grassland is to identify the direction.
Fortunately, Gu Nanxi had a compass, and the military factory vigorously produced it, and all officers above the middle level were equipped with compasses.
In this way, even if you encounter a starless night, you will not get lost on the grassland.
"As long as we capture Wuzhou and hold Wuzhou, we can tear a hole in the Sixteenth Province of Youyun! We will have won more than half of this battle!"
Gu Hai encouraged Gu Jiajun: "We can capture Youyun Sixteenth State once, and we can capture it a second time! Do you have confidence?"
"Yes!"
Gu Jiajun roared in a low voice.
In the vast darkness of night, Gu Jiajun was like a lurking beast, ready to bite the Tatar's throat.
But when they arrived at the scheduled location, they were greeted by a hail of arrows!
Gu Jiajun was stunned by the sudden attack, but quickly reacted and formed a defensive formation.
“No, we have fallen into a trap!”
Gu Hai was horrified and looked around. They were all Tatars waiting for work!
What made Gu Hai even more chilled was that the location where the Tatars ambush was so precise! This shows that there are spies in the Yunzhou army, and the defense plan has been leaked!
"General Gu, send someone quickly to inform the general!" The Gu family's troops are all battle-experienced warriors.
Although they are in danger, they are still more concerned about the general who is in charge of the central army.
Since the defense plan has been leaked, it is impossible for the other party to just ambush Gu Hai, there will definitely be other targeted plans.
This news must be conveyed to the general as soon as possible!
The Tatars wanted to swallow these five thousand people, how could they allow anyone to escape? !
Gu Hai then took the lead and moved forward with all his strength, heading south, and launched a counter-charge at the Tatar army that had already launched a charge!
The two sides fought, and Gu Hai's heroic actions shocked and inspired the whole army, but after the Gu family army surpassed the initial strength, they quickly fell into a disadvantage!
Because the equipment and quality of this Tatar team far exceed imagination! There are divine arm bows everywhere, and almost everyone criticizes the armor!
Gu Hai's heart was sinking like a boulder.
It seems that these Tatars are the personal soldiers of King Zuoxian [Buddha]!
If it's one-on-one, Gu Jiajun is slightly better than Futu.
But the Gu family army was extremely exhausted after running all night, but on the opposite side, they were clearly alert and in good condition.
Therefore, after the two armies fought for a while, their momentum was exhausted, and the Gu family army fell into a disadvantage. They only relied on the strength of the cavalry and their lonesome courage to hold on!
What worried Gu Hai even more was that King Zuo Xian did not send out his pagoda when the general burned Chierle or when he swept across the grassland and moved the boundary monument.
But this time, all the elite from Pagoda came out!
Gu Hai didn't believe that King Zuo Xian would think so highly of him, he definitely wanted to target the general!
Could it be that King Zuo Xian wanted to encircle the area for reinforcements and force the general to divide his troops for rescue? !
That’s not right. If you really want to surround the area and call for reinforcements, you should open a small opening and let people go out to deliver the message!
What exactly do they want to do?
……
Standing on the Wuzhou city wall and looking south from a distance, you can vaguely see the rising dust.
Ma Nantian held his grandson Ma Angelica and wandered under the city wall, but was soon driven away by the Tatar soldiers guarding the city.
"How's it going?" Mr. Ma was in high spirits and stood guard in front of the door of Ma's house.
Ma Nantian hugged his little grandson and winked at Mr. Ma, and the two returned to the yard tacitly.
After Ma Nantian handed his grandson to the wet nurse, he looked very solemn: "I can't find out anything. It's ten steps away from the base of the city wall. The Tatars don't allow anyone to get close, especially the Han people."< br>
Mr. Ma's eyes flashed: "Ever since we learned that the general was going to fight the Tatars, the atmosphere in the entire Wuzhou City has been very solemn! Almost everyone is under martial law, and we, the big Han families, are under very tight supervision."< br>
Mr. Ma After living for such a long time, they have eaten more salt than young people have eaten: "But suddenly, they relaxed. There must be something fishy in it!"
This kind of thing Relaxation is not behavioral relaxation, but emotional relaxation. At the beginning, the entire Wuzhou was like a dark cloud looming over the city, and it was so tense that it seemed like it would explode in the next second.
Although the patrols are still tight now, Mr. Ma feels a sense of relaxation from some Tatar officers.
This is very strange.
Squeak!
The door was pushed open, and Ma Nantian's daughter-in-law Yuan Niang walked in with a tired look on her face: "Dad, they don't know anything."
Yuan Niang ran away from many aristocratic families, and everyone's The current situation is pretty much the same. They are all being monitored by people sent by the Tatars. They are not allowed to leave Wuzhou City. There is no news about the fighting situation outside.
Ma Nantian and Mr. Ma sighed heavily.
The entire Han people in Wuzhou City were like deaf and blind people. They could only be forced to be trapped in Wuzhou City and wait for the final result.
"Okay, let's eat first and then think of a solution."
The Ma family had braised mutton rice for dinner. The mutton on the grassland was very plump.
Some beans are added to the braised mutton rice to neutralize the fatness of the mutton.
If it were normal, the family would have feasted on it.
But this night, the whole family lowered their heads to eat in silence, their brows furrowed tightly, and their hearts felt as if they were being fried in a frying pan, making them very uncomfortable.
"I'll take some gold and silver to visit the big dealer tomorrow." Ma Nantian put down the bowl and chopsticks.
Yuan Niang turned around and was about to get the gold: "The big families are the most greedy for money. Father, please bring more."
It is really disappointing that we can't find out the news outside the city. The mind is in a state of ups and downs, unable to get to the right place.
Night fell, and there was silence in Wuzhou City.
A figure in a black cloak gently knocked on the door of Ma's house at midnight.
Ma Nantian held a stick and opened the door vigilantly. He saw the man outside the door covering his entire face with a wide hat, making it difficult to see his face clearly.
"Who are you? Why did you come to my Ma's house?" Ma Nantian held the stick in his hand tightly.
"It's me, keep your voice down."
Ma Nantian's pupils suddenly widened, it's him!
Ma Nantian quickly let the man in black robe come in and quietly closed the door.
In such a tense atmosphere, the Ma family sleep very lightly and will wake up at the slightest disturbance.
"Dad, are there any guests?"
"Nantian, who is here?"
Mr. Ma and Yuan Niang all got up, put on their robes and went Came to the lobby.
Under the gaze of everyone, the man in black robe lifted his hat and untied his cloak.
Yuan Niang covered her mouth with her hands to stop the exclamation that was about to blurt out.
This is the head of Sangda!
The Sang family had already broken up with the Ma family, so why did he visit late at night?
Ma Nantian’s eyes flickered, and his heart was in a state of turmoil.
Mr. Sang pursed his lips tightly, a look of struggle flashed across his face, and finally whispered: "There are no reinforcements!"
