Chapter 3593 Reunion
More than 10,000 cavalrymen set up a pontoon bridge to cross the Wei River at night, and unexpectedly broke into the Guanlong army. Changsun Heng was safe, but lacked the cunning to make contingency plans. Unexpectedly, Fang Jun actually killed a carbine and crossed from the most unlikely place. Weishui.
The formation that they thought was impregnable was broken with a single blow. More than ten thousand cavalry rushed into the camp like a tide. Tens of thousands of Guanlong troops instantly collapsed and fled, and they were defeated like a mountain.
On the plains on the south bank of the Wei River, under the heavy snow, the defeated Guanlong army was running like wolves, panicking and not choosing their way. But no matter how fast they ran, how could they be faster than four-legged war horses? More than 10,000 cavalrymen chased and killed wantonly in the open fields, killing Guanlong's defeated army until they howled like ghosts and wolves, and abandoned their weapons and surrendered.
A group of soldiers carried the body of Changsun Heng'an and ran wildly. When they saw the cavalry roaring behind them, they hurriedly separated some people from behind to block it, while the rest continued to flee in the direction of Longshouyuan.
The Youtun Guards cavalry saw this group of people from a distance and knew that it must be a big fish. They left some soldiers to surround and kill the enemy troops blocking the rear, while the rest dispersed, bypassed the enemy troops on both wings, and chased away wildly.
The soldiers had no choice but to continuously separate their soldiers to resist the pursuers, while they fled frantically towards the garrison on Longshou Plain.
Finally, after several separate attacks, the Youtun Guard cavalry arrived in front of the friendly forces before they could catch up...
It was Hou Mo and Chen Lin who were stationed at Longshouyuan, with 20,000 troops stationed here. On the one hand, they assisted Chang Sun Heng'an in defending the rear formation, and on the other hand, they stopped the sixth leader of the East Palace from escaping from Xuanwu Gate. Chang Sun Wuji's order to him was to hold on to his position. Strike with caution.
At present, although the Sixth Army of the East Palace is retreating steadily, not only the imperial city has been lost, but also several gates of the Taiji Palace have been lost. They are retreating to the Taiji Palace and struggling to resist. However, Fang Jun's thousands of miles to come to the aid has given the East Palace a great encouragement, and the morale is instantly high. Under such circumstances, they would never give up Tai Chi Palace and withdraw from Xuanwu Gate.
Changsun Heng'an blatantly demolished the Zhongwei Bridge during the day, making it impossible for Fang Jun to forcefully cross the Weishui River. He could only take a detour through the Jingshui River and take the Dongwei Bridge and go straight to Baqiao to threaten the east city of Chang'an. In addition, Changsun Heng'an had tens of thousands of soldiers blocking the Weishui River. North, it can be said to be foolproof.
Therefore, Hou Mo and Chen Lin recovered all the scouts and stabilized the camp. As long as they guarded against the almost impossible sneak attack by Gao Kan's Youtun Guards outside Xuanwu Gate, they would be invincible.
But he never expected that Changsun Heng'an, who should be one of the strongest links, would be defeated so quickly and miserably...
When the soldiers carried Changsun Heng'an's body and fled to the front of the battle, Hou Mo Chenlin was completely stunned.
Tens of thousands of troops collapsed at the first touch, causing the entire south bank of the Wei River to fall into Fang Jun's hands. Changsun Heng'an was not only helpless to resist, but he also died of heart palpitations before the battle?
The most bizarre thing is, now that the Zhongwei Bridge has been demolished, how did Fang Jun's cavalry cross the Wei River without anyone noticing and launch a surprise attack?
He asked the soldiers who came to escort the body of Sun Heng'an, but these soldiers shook their heads blankly and had no idea.
What could they know?
In his sleep, the Youtun Guards cavalry raided and broke into the camp. The tens of thousands of people in the army were completely defeated without any decent resistance. The mountains and plains were full of defeated troops who were running away like crazy. Who the hell knows what happened?
Hou Mo and Chen Lin wanted to send scouts to investigate, but it was already too late. The Youtun Guards cavalry came from all over the mountains and fields to kill like a tide.
It was impossible to tell whether the enemy was real or not in the dark, and Changsun Heng'an's troops were defeated too quickly and inexplicably. Hou Mo and Chen Lin did not dare to be careless, so how could they dare to take the initiative to resist? If he accidentally ends up in the same disastrous defeat as Changsun Heng'an, he won't be able to explain it to Changsun Wuji...
To be on the safe side, Hou Mo Chen Lin immediately ordered the entire army to retreat and gather in one place. They even abandoned their tents. They stabilized their position and slowly retreated towards the Daming Palace. At the same time, they sent troops to escort the body of Changsun Hengan into the city from the Chunming Gate of the East City.
Wang Fangyi led more than 10,000 cavalry galloping, chasing Guanlong's defeated army and capturing countless prisoners. It was not until Longshou Plain was blocked by Hou Mo and Chen Lin's troops that he slowed down.
Although Wang Fangyi was eager to perform meritorious service and his morale was high, Wang Fangyi observed that Hou Mo and Chen Lin's troops retreated without chaos and maintained a strong formation. He knew that a strong attack would inevitably cause heavy losses, and the most important task at the moment was to go to Xuanwu Sect and Gao Kan's troops. They gathered together, strengthened the defensive force of Xuanwu Gate, and then held on to the pontoon bridge to assist Fang Jun in crossing the river. Therefore, they did not take credit. They only left two to three thousand cavalry to chase the enemy forward slowly, while he led the remaining troops straight to Xuanwu Gate.
Under the Xuanwu Gate, the Youtunwei camp was brightly lit, and the entire army was heavily guarded. The swords were unsheathed and the bows were strung. Come and join.
At the Xuanwu Gate, Zhang Shigui, Li Junxian and others, who had already known that Fang Jun might forcefully cross the Weishui River to attack the enemy tonight, were standing on the tower with helmets and armor on their hands. The Beiya Imperial Guards were also fully armed and on standby.
Even inside the inner gate, Princess Changle and Princess Jinyang were waiting anxiously in their clothes in the brightly lit room.
After all, ever since the Guanlong army entered Chang'an City and launched a mutiny, the East Palace has been in a desperate situation of being passively beaten, and was once on the verge of collapse. Now that Fang Jun has finally led troops thousands of miles away to come back for reinforcements, the situation has changed suddenly, and naturally everyone is concerned.
In particular, Princess Changle's heart was mixed with other factors, and her usually peaceful mood was also very anxious...
Suddenly, there was a faint burst of cheers. Princess Jinyang, who couldn't hold back her temper, jumped up and walked to the door in small steps. She stared at the waiter outside and asked anxiously: "What's going on? Is my brother-in-law back? ?”
The chamberlain shook his head: "We don't know yet."
Princess Jinyang stamped her feet and said: "Since we don't know anything, why are you standing here stupidly? Go to the city to inquire about it and report back."
"Here."
The servants did not dare to neglect, and one of them immediately ran quickly towards Xuanwu Gate. After a while, he turned around and saw Princess Jinyang still waiting at the door. He hurriedly reported loudly: "Your Highness, it is indeed the Duke of Yue. The Youtun Guards who were brought to the Western Regions came back and successfully joined forces with the Gao Kan tribe outside the Xuanwu Gate!”
Princess Jinyang didn't care about this at all, and just asked urgently: "Where is my brother-in-law?"
The chamberlain ran forward gasping for breath and said: "It is said that the vanguard troops crossed the Wei River and defeated Changsun Heng'an. Hou Mo Chenlin stationed in Longshouyuan also led his army to retreat. The Yue Kingdom led the army from Jingyang. Let’s go, we’ll be here soon.”
Princess Jinyang was overjoyed, turned around and ran into the house. When she saw Princess Changle sitting firmly by the coffee table, she ran to her side and said happily: "Sister, did you hear this? My brother-in-law is back!"
< br>
Princess Changle's face was dull, but her heart was beating violently, but her beautiful eyebrows were slightly frowned, because there was a lot of ambiguity in Princess Jinyang's words, which could easily be misunderstood, so she said angrily: "What are you talking nonsense about, little girl? Just sit still, show your teeth and show your claws like this, there is no dignity at all, be careful to make people laugh.”
"Hehe,"
Not realizing that there was anything wrong with what she just said, Princess Jinyang held Princess Changle's arm and sat down, her eyebrows bright: "My brother-in-law has been in the Western Regions for a long time, and I miss him a little! And last time my brother-in-law left Beijing, he went all the way to the Western Regions to defeat powerful enemies. , every time there are dangers, aren’t you worried? Not only are you back safely, but at this critical moment, I can’t wait to see my brother-in-law!”
The little princess is smart and cunning, but she doesn't have much scheming, and she expresses her thoughts without any scruples.
Princess Changle pursed her lips and remained silent.
How could she not want to? In the past six months, I have often been sleepless in the middle of the night, thinking about the man who went to the Western Regions to fight for the country. I not only reminisced about the sweetness of the two people getting along, but also worried about the natural chasms brought about by each other's identities. They also felt tenderness, longing, and... Feeling sad, my heart seems to be entangled with tangles
I am especially worried at this moment. I am thinking about meeting the sweetheart I have longed for, but I don’t know how to deal with it after meeting. I am at a loss and have all kinds of feelings in my heart...
……
Outside the Xuanwu Gate, the scouts galloped from the direction of the Wei River. Before they reached the camp gate, they shouted loudly on horseback: "Coming, coming!"
The whole army was excited and looked towards the Wei River, waiting eagerly.
Gao Kan put on his helmet and whipped his armor, and personally led his troops outside the camp gate. He was surrounded by cavalry guards on both sides. After waiting for a moment, he heard the dull thunderous sound of hoofbeats in the distance faintly coming from the wind and snow.
Not long after, countless black shadows suddenly jumped out of the wind and snow, rushing towards them overwhelmingly. When they got closer, they saw the banner of Youtun Guards fluttering in the wind and snow. The soldiers on both sides were inexplicably excited, and suddenly burst into an earth-shattering cheer.
In the midst of isolation, I wish all lovers in the world a happy 520...
