Chapter 3868 On the brink
"Two princes, the news has just arrived. Changsun Yan's tribe was defeated by the Youtun Guards on the left side of Yong'an Canal, and Yuwen Long's tribe was also cut off from its retreat. It was a huge defeat!"
Yu Wenjie didn't care about self-cultivation and calmness. He opened the door and let out a loud roar.
The shock made the eyes of the two people in the room glazed over, a little in disbelief...
It's not that they didn't expect that this battle would be defeated. Naturally, they knew the invincible and fierce combat power of Youtunwei. Even the most elite "Woye Town Private Army" could not defeat them. What about those temporarily reorganized private armies of powerful clans? Can it be defeated?
But after all, the purpose of this battle is not to defeat Youtunwei's defense line, but to "send a life". If there is a chance to break through Youtunwei's defense line, it would be best. If not, then quickly evacuate after the task is completed to ensure that everyone escapes. Isn't it difficult to do this?
But who would have thought that it didn’t even last past midnight, and then it was a complete failure...
Changsun Wuji tried his best to control his trembling hands and put the tea cup on the coffee table. His face was gloomy and he shouted angrily: "Changsun Yan, this bastard! This time the army is defeated, I want to engage in military law!"
Yu Wenshi thought why he said such cruel words? Even if your son makes a big mistake, can you really kill him?
He disagreed in his heart, but he still wanted to give Changsun Wuji a step forward: "Victory and defeat are common matters for military strategists. Why should the auxiliary aircraft be angry?"
He asked Yu Wenjie again: "Is Shiro still okay?"
He must be fine, otherwise Yuwenjie’s first sentence should be “I’m sorry”...
Yu Wenjie bent over and whispered: "Mr. Zhao, calm down. Shiro... was inserted into the rear formation by the Youtun Guards. He was defeated in a fierce battle and has abandoned his weapons and surrendered."
Changsun Wuji: "..."
The anger was a little stronger, and even a little sad.
If Changsun Yan died in this battle, Changsun Wuji would be sad, but he still had to take a high look. After all, since the uprising, the Guanlong army, led by the Changsun family, has been defeated one after another, which has severely damaged the prestige of the Changsun family. Even the entire Guanlong clan has not found any rising stars who can lead troops to fight. This For the Guanlong clan who started out with military exploits, this is both ironic and sad.
However, Changsun Yan was not only defeated cleanly this time, but also surrendered... Is he so spineless?
Changsun Wuji was so angry that he almost spit out another mouthful of blood.
Of course, although it would be unbearable to abandon one's weapons and surrender, one's life would be safe at least, which is considered a great blessing among misfortunes...
When Yuwenshi saw that Changsun Wuji was fine, he looked at Yuwenjie, frowned and asked, "What is Yuwenlong doing? Qian Dingzhu and Wan asked him to hold down the formation for Changsun Yan to avoid being intercepted and attacked by Youtun Guards. As a result, He just watched Changsun Yan being surrounded and fighting alone? His retreat was actually cut off. Did he forget how he was defeated last time? "
He thought that Yu Wenlong saw that his retreat was cut off and was afraid of making the same mistake again, so he abandoned Chang Sun Yan and led his army to retreat. In this way, Changsun Wuji was bound to be offended, but at any rate, the strength of the "Woye Town Private Army" was preserved. Although it was wrong, it can be forgiven.
In the final analysis, whether it is the imperial court or Guan Long, strength will ultimately matter. In the past, the eldest son's family had many private armies, and their leader Guan Long has now suffered successive setbacks, and the elite private army has suffered heavy losses. As long as the Yuwen family can preserve the "Woye Town Private Army" Sooner or later, the main force of the "army" will be able to overwhelm the Changsun family and become the new leader of the Guanlong clan.
If Changsun Wuji feels grudge because of this... then let him bear grudge.
After this battle, the strength of the two families will be completely reversed, and there is no need to look at Changsun Wuji's face anymore.
Yuwenjie's face was extremely ugly, but he still bowed and sighed: "Yuwenlong's tribe was cut off by Sun Renshi. There was no way to retreat, so he could only lead his cavalry to charge with them. The result was a complete defeat. Yuwenlong was also injured and captured." Private Army of Woye Town 'It collapsed and dispersed, and not even one out of ten returned to the camp..."
Yuwen Shiji: "..."
His face was dull and his mind was shaken.
Is the private army in Woye Town finished?
This private army, which has been loyal to the Yuwen family for generations, and which has made the Yuwen family the core of the Guanlong clan for more than a hundred years, actually collapsed and dispersed in his hands, leaving no trace of it alive?
This makes him how to face his ancestors a hundred years later under Jiuquan?
Yu Wenshi's face turned ashen, then his vision turned black and he fell backward.
Bang!
The chair was brought to the coffee table next to him, and he fell backwards to the ground. The tea set fell to the ground and shattered with a crash. Changsun Wuji on the side subconsciously reached out to pull him, but at this moment he was seriously ill, short of breath and weak, so instead of grabbing him, he almost brought him down.
Yu Wenjie was shocked and hurriedly stepped forward to help Yu Wenshi and his upper body who had fallen on the ground. When he saw that Yu Wenshi and his face were like gold paper and his energy was like a gossamer, he had fainted. He was so frightened that his face changed drastically. He was both happy and angry. I pinched the person, but I couldn't see any improvement after being steamed for a while. I could only turn around and shout: "Here comes! Call the doctor!"
There was a commotion outside the house.
Fortunately, Yu Wenshiji slowly woke up at this time, opened his eyes, exhaled a long breath, and recovered...
When the doctor walked in quickly, he stepped forward to take over Yu Wenjie. He first lifted Yu Wenshi and placed him on Changsun Wuji's bed. Agitation and anger attack the heart, causing the heart qi and blood to be blocked. As long as you rest peacefully, there will be no serious problems. ”
That being said, even the doctor himself knew that these words had no effect.
At the moment when the life and death of the Guanlong clan is at stake, Changsun Wuji is already seriously ill and has low energy. He relies on Yu Wenshi and his colleagues to coordinate all parties, check for deficiencies, and even assume the post of "commander" of Changsun Wuji. If he cannot persist, it will inevitably trigger violent turmoil within Guanlong, which will not only seriously affect the morale of the military, but may even lead to a split...
The current grim situation is getting worse.
Changsun Wuji saw that Yu Wenshi was okay for the time being, so he waved to his old servant to call in the soldiers of the Changsun family, and said to several doctors: "The situation is urgent, and what is going on here must not be leaked. How many grievances are there for the time being?" ”
The faces of several doctors were ugly, but they also knew that it was necessary to confine them. Besides, who would dare to violate Changsun Wuji's decision?
He could only bow and say: "We understand the importance and will never complain."
Changsun Wuji nodded and ordered several doctors to be taken down to be detained and supervised. They were not allowed to have contact with the outside world to prevent the news of Yu Wenshi and his coma from leaking out.
In the blink of an eye, everyone retreated, leaving only Yu Wenjie standing there with a hesitant expression.
Changsun Wuji stretched out his hand to pick up the teacup, then he remembered that the coffee table had fallen over and the teacup was shattered. He had to take his hand back, waved it, and said in a deep voice: "No need to panic."
Yu Wenjie composed himself and said respectfully: "Yes."
Changsun Wuji then said: "If you pass the order, the reserve troops outside Chunming Gate will enter the city immediately, rotate with the troops attacking the city at this moment, maintain a strong offensive posture, and must not slack off for a moment."
Yu Wenjie nodded and said, "I'll leave my humble position right now."
Turn around and stride out.
Although the Guanlong army was once again defeated outside Jingyao Gate, at the same time, the Youtun Guards could not remain unscathed. At least they would need three to five days to rest and recuperate after the war. Moreover, the large number of prisoners will inevitably involve a lot of troops from the Youtun Guard. During this period, even if Zhang Shigui opens the Xuanwu Gate, the Youtun Guard will not be able to give the East Palace Six Rates much support.
It was the time when the Guanlong army was attacking furiously.
As long as the Sixth Army of the East Palace can be defeated at the cost of casualties and break into the Taiji Palace, this war is likely to come to an end...
Changsun Wuji was sitting in the side hall, watching the old servant come in and clean up the debris on the floor, put up the coffee table, get a new tea set, brew a pot of tea and leave, with gloomy eyes and resentment in his heart.
I originally thought of taking this opportunity to send all the private soldiers of the clans to the sword of Youtun Guard, so as to completely destroy the foundation of the clans outside the pass, win Li Ji to put down his guard, and gain a chance of survival, but he did not expect that the "head" would actually be It was sent out, but the private army of the Yuwen family was also brought in...
The destruction of the "Woye Town Private Army" not only means that the foundation of the Yuwen family has been severely damaged, but also means that there are not many elites left in the Guanlong army. Although the remaining ones are still more powerful, most of them are no better than those private armies of the powerful families. How strong is that?
In addition, the food supply is about to run out... the hope of overthrowing the East Palace has been reduced a bit.
Now that Zhang Shigui is blocking the Xuanwu Gate, the Youtun Guards are unable to support the Sixth Army of the East Palace, so they can only send all their troops up to try to win the battle.
The longer it goes on, the closer the situation becomes to Guan Long's despair...
"Boom!"
A spring thunder exploded, and the white lightning flashed, making the hall pale. Changsun Wuji's face became even whiter!
Mother!
Even God is against me?
Once heavy rain falls, the success will be frustrated and the troops will have to withdraw. But withdrawing the troops means delaying the war, but the food supply in Guanlong is decreasing day by day... How many more days can we last?
