Chapter 4290: Fight to the death

While Cui Junshi was hesitating, urgent battle reports pouring in from all over and asking for support made Cui Junshi both anxious and frightened.

Get up and go to the map on the wall. Based on the battle report, mark the losses of soldiers and the gains and losses of positions on it. After the marking was completed, I took a closer look and felt a chill. Less than two hours after the war started, the outer positions were almost in danger and suffered heavy losses. Several places had even been broken through by the enemy...

Cui Junshi thought about the two thousand reserve troops in his hand, wondering where to send the best support?

After looking at it for a long time, I realized that the best way is to not support anywhere. If I hold the reserve team firmly in my hands, I may be able to resist desperately in the end. Otherwise, putting down such a small number of troops will be like spreading salt in the sea, and they will be destroyed in an instant. Swallowing it clean will not help...

Everyone knew that the Left and Right Military Guards were a veteran and powerful force among the Sixteen Guards. They served as the vanguard to destroy the Turks, fiercely fight Tuyuhun, and even conquer Goguryeo, but Cui Junshi had never expected that they would be so strong.

Even though he had never led troops before, he also knew that this battle was not at all what he and Cui Xin had imagined.

Even though it was hard to believe it, he had already confirmed in his heart that he had been tricked by King Jin this time. How could he persist for two days?

Being able to play for a whole day is considered a super performance by Qinghe Cui...

……

The three armies of Youwuwei launched an attack together, with an earth-shattering momentum. Countless soldiers rushed towards the Tongren Yuan in overwhelming numbers. The Cui family's private army did set up many trenches and traps with the assistance of the Jin King's army to limit the impact of the Youwu Guard cavalry to the greatest extent. However, these simple fortifications seemed to not exist in the Youwu Guard because they simply did not have them. Use cavalry.

The whole army kept in mind Xue Wanche's instructions. No one dared to cause unnecessary casualties or even failure due to carelessness, so they strictly followed the battle plan step by step. Even if the Cui family's private army in front of them is just a group of farmers with swords and guns, the Youwuwei will form a rigorous formation and then charge, charging, killing, taking prisoners, and cleaning the battlefield, every step is meticulous.

It's like a huge exercise...

Of course, the war was not all smooth sailing, and Cui's private army was not invincible just because of its low combat power.

Families are formed by blood and prosper by region. The same interests form a strong cohesion. At a certain moment, this cohesion will burst out with extremely strong combat power, which will greatly compensate for the lack of one's own strength.

The Cui family's private army is either the Cui family's own children, in-laws, or farmers and slaves in the area controlled by the Cui family. They have an inseparable bond of interest with the Cui family. When the Cui family prospers, everyone will prosper. If the Cui family dies, Then everyone will die.

Cui Junshi's mobilization before the war still lingers in the ears of the soldiers. They know that after this battle, the Cui family will surely become a top family member "under the same family and above thousands of families", enjoying unparalleled honor and dignity. To seize countless benefits, even if they die here now, their wives, children, and family members will receive unparalleled rewards, and even a class promotion.

The only thing to do is to stick to the Tongren original for two days.

Is it difficult?

It was difficult. The Youwuwei's offensive was as fierce, domineering and continuous as the waves crashing on the shore. Often a position of hundreds of people would be taken away in an instant, leaving corpses everywhere and rivers of blood.

Can't do it?

not necessarily!

When more than 10,000 soldiers who were willing to risk their lives to hold on to their position for two days faced the enemy with red eyes, slashing with knives, stabbing with spears, and even biting with teeth, they still fought bloody battles. Wu Wei is also quite troublesome.

In the final analysis, no matter how harsh Xue Wanche's instructions were, in the eyes of Youwuwei, a group of arrogant soldiers, Cui's private army has never been regarded as serious enemies. They will be careful not to make mistakes, but it does not necessarily mean that they are willing to fight with The ragtag group that had been carrying dung rakes two days ago perished together.

When two armies meet, the brave one wins.

In the era of cold weapons, when one of the parties occupies a favorable geographical position and is determined to face death, the powerful momentum generated by the combination of both is difficult to defeat...

The progress of Youwuwei has slowed down, and it is no longer as overwhelming as before.

However, the gap in combat power between the two sides was huge. The Youwuwei did not want to lose their soldiers easily, so they adopted steady and steady tactics, sometimes interspersing, sometimes encircling and annihilating. The tactics were flexible and changeable. They did not completely defeat this group of mobs as expected, but There were definitely a lot of people killed on the battlefield.

For a while, the war was a little anxious.

……

The battle reports flew to the Yifeng Township Yamen Office and were presented in front of Xue Wanche. The captain who delivered the letter was a little trembling. The war is not going as smoothly as expected, and my commander's temper is extremely hot. If it breaks out, I will be in disaster...

Xue Wanche looked at the battle reports one by one with a gloomy face. For a long time, he breathed out amidst the fighting atmosphere between the two captains and said: "Okay, step back. The battle reports from the front must be delivered in time. You must not Delay.”

"Here!"

The captain retreated.

Xue Wanche picked up the teapot on the table and poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, spit it on the ground, and cursed: "How can this break the tea? It smells like tree leaves."

The alcohol bug in his mouth was ready to attack, but he also knew that we were in wartime and could not take the initiative to violate military regulations, so he could only endure it.

Xue Wanche was not dissatisfied with the slow advance of the front due to the desperate resistance from Cui's private army. This battle was just for show, and there was no need to risk his life in a fight. Cui's private army has been surrounded by groups, and destruction is the only outcome. In this case, it is better to take the opportunity to practice troops. The troops coordinate, respond to each other, intersperse with each other, and practice various tactics.

After all, after returning to Beijing from the Eastern Expedition, a large number of new soldiers were added to the army. It would be fine if these soldiers were placed in other armies, but in Youwuwei, they showed a lack of military literacy. This is absolutely intolerable.

He would not refute if Xue Wanche was told that he was not good at this or that, but if he was told that he was not good at leading troops, he would not tolerate it.

Let the new recruits see blood and become familiar with various tactics. After another two or three years, they will become veterans. When they actually go to the battlefield, they will not be timid and make mistakes and lose their lives in vain.

……

Jin Wang Li Zhi led an army of 100,000 people to march southward along the Ba River non-stop, hoping to join forces with Yuchi Gong as soon as possible to jointly raid Chang'an.

But along the way, he was not worried about the Cui family's private army behind him, and constantly sent scouts to closely monitor all the movements of Tongrenyuan. After all, although the Cui family's private army has a large number of people, it seems to be insufficient in combat against the wolf-like Youwuwei. If it collapses quickly under the thunderous attack of Youwuwei, it cannot achieve the goal of delaying the advance of Youwuwei. If the target is still being chased and killed by Youwuwei, then something is wrong.

However, the performance of Cui's private army far exceeded his expectations. The entire Tongren was guarded airtight by Cui Junshi. Although the battle losses were increasing every moment, the Youwu Guards were not as unstoppable as imagined.

The army arrived at Huaxu Mausoleum and settled down. Li Zhi sent someone to contact Yuchi Gong to discuss when the army would cross the river. At the same time, he said to Cui Xin: "The loyalty and bravery of the Cui family are actually the cornerstone of this king's great achievements. Cui Junshi is even more important to Qiancheng." The weapon of Shandong, this person is undoubtedly the number one."

It was okay if he didn't say this. The more he said this, the more heartbroken Cui Xin became and he couldn't breathe.

What is most important to the family?

It is not the vast hectares of fertile land that has been passed down for hundreds of years, nor the abundant millet in the warehouse, but the talents.

Although the Cui family of Qinghe has been a wealthy family for thousands of years, with heirlooms of poetry and calligraphy, and all the children in the family are extremely intelligent and talented in literature, since the Sui and Tang Dynasties, there have been very few truly outstanding children. Cui Junsil has always performed well, far better than his peers, but he has never taken on a big responsibility before, and his ability has not been shown to others.

Now when he was in danger, people suddenly saw his outstanding ability in both civil and military affairs. He fought bravely and effectively in the face of powerful enemies.

However, such an outstanding young man who could become the backbone of the family is still trapped in a tight siege. No matter how outstanding his performance is, he cannot escape the end of the entire army, defeat and death.

Compared with his 10,000 Cui family's private army, he feels more sorry for Cui Junshi...

Taking a deep breath, he tried his best to suppress the regret and pain in his heart, and said with a sigh: "The current situation is difficult. It is a supreme honor for the Cui family to be able to go through fire and water for His Highness. As long as His Highness can achieve great things, no matter how much sacrifice he makes, it will be worth it." .”

So work harder. Only when you ascend the throne can your evidence be counted and Cui's sacrifice be valuable...

Li Zhi said seriously: "The current situation is under control. As long as we can break into Chang'an City, it will inevitably trigger a violent reaction in the entire Guanzhong. When the situation becomes chaotic, the generals in charge will inevitably change their tactics. It is the time to achieve great things. At that time, The loss suffered by Cui today will be repaid tenfold by me.”

"Your Majesty is the crown prince who was chosen by Emperor Taizong, and is bound by Emperor Taizong's last wish. Now that his throne has been stolen by a traitor, the world is in chaos, and the world is upside down. Your Highness is willing to take risks, fight against rebellion, and rule the righteous people of Kyushu. Fighting to the death and bringing order to chaos is truly the best in the world! It is truly glorious for us to be able to stick to Jiwei and fight to the death for the sake of the country’s integrity, not just for fame, fortune and wealth.”

Cui Xin calmed his mind and spoke very openly, showing his philanthropic and upright demeanor.

Li Zhi just wanted to listen to this. If he takes the throne in the future and continues to suppress the national policy of the powerful, I am afraid that the Cui family of Qinghe will be the first to jump out and rebel against him...

The reason why the Cui family of Qinghe spared no effort in supporting her was naturally not for fame, fortune and wealth. The Cui family of Qinghe had enjoyed this for hundreds of years, so what's so strange about it? What they want is power and the status of the first-class family in the world!

This is what a wealthy family pursues tirelessly. As long as they have power and status, aren't they easy to gain fame and wealth?

Of course, everything in the world is bustling for the sake of profit, and the world is bustling for the sake of profit. Everything is united because of profit, and everything is destroyed because of profit.

If he, Li Zhi, thinks that he is truly destined to be his destiny, and that he can make the heroes of the world follow him loyally and swear loyalty to him when he is filled with the aura of domineering, that would be the joke of the world... (End of this chapter)
