Gao Baolong stopped his horse and looked up.
Tongchang City was bathed in the dark night, like a beast on the mountain pass, blocking its way. If you want to go there, you must capture this city. This is the last obstacle to breaking south. After rushing through this obstacle, the rebel army was like a dragon entering the sea, a tiger breaks away from the cage, and an eagle climbing into the sky, and can traverse at will.
However, although I was very anxious, I had no army in my hands, so I could only sigh. Siege is different from field battles. Siege requires army and troops. No one can only sigh at the city.
"Sent to the generals and set up camp." Gao Baolong shouted at the commander, "Please come to the city immediately."
Soon, Mu Taoli, Hailasu, Dafengnu and Abaddon came on a horse.
The horse army could not attack the city, so it could only wait for the infantry to catch up, but the main force of the infantry went to support the general. Now I don’t know how the Hu Xiaotai fought. The Jin army has a large force, several times the blocking force of the rebels. Even if it can be blocked, the losses are probably great. I hope that the Hu Xiaotai can withstand it and the infantry can come in time, but it is unpredictable whether it can conquer the city after rushing to come. At this moment, the reinforcements of the Liao people are coming quickly, and the Jin army is chasing behind, and the rebels are still hanging on the front line, so everyone is in a heavy mood. The joy of capturing the Targlutinous Mountain gradually dissipates, and each of them looks cold and silent.
Gao Baolong turned his head and looked at Mu Taoli, "At the beginning of the year, the Heishan Army retreated northward, and this was the road. At that time, you had tens of thousands of people. How did you get there?"
Mu Taoli raised his horse whip and pointed to the mountain on the right, "That mountain is not high, we go up the mountain from there, and then cross the mountains and ridges all the way..."
Everyone looked up.
Hailasu sighed, "Although the mountains here are not high and people can climb slowly, it is difficult for livestock to get up, especially those cattle and horses, which take a long time to get up. In addition, what should I do with carriages? What should I do with supplies? I don't want them?"
"At that time, the Liao army followed behind us, only a dozen miles away from us. Except for people, money and food, all other things were lost." Mu Taoli was still shocked when she fled north at the beginning of the year, "If it weren't for the Tiger King, the Black Mountain Army would have been wiped out here."
Mu Taoli mentioned Li Hu's plan to retreat to the Liao and Jin armies. He didn't know what happened. He also heard from him. After he added fuel to the fire and boasted, Li Hu became a god and could do everything. However, Gao Baolong, Hailasu and others listened with relish and believed it without doubt.
Even in a big battle, Li Hu was able to win in a narrow victory. Although he didn't see any amazing magical magic, it was mysterious. If you think carefully, it would have to be said that Li Hu had magical magic power, which cannot be explained by luck. Luck is no longer possible. Li Hu could not have such good luck every time, so this can only be explained by Li Hu having some magical power. Or in other words, he can also have the help of the gods.
After the story of Mu Taoli was told, everyone's confidence came. What is this broken city? A big city like Longhua has been defeated. Can this small city stop Li Hu? That's a joke.
"I urgently report to the General General, the General General's Mansion and Mao, the Ma Army has arrived in Tongchang City and is waiting for the infantry to come and meet."
Breakthrough on the ninth day.
In the early morning, midnight.
Mao Jun, Tieying, Zhang Gaoer and Ying Qin rushed to Tongchang City.
The Mao army brought news about the rear army. Although the rebel army blocked the attack of the Jin army, it suffered heavy losses. All five generals of the rear army were destroyed and they were unable to fight again. It took time for more than 400,000 people to retreat. After retreating, the army also needed to station Tsulou Mountain to block the pursuit of the Jin army. Therefore, it is definitely impossible to attack Tongchang City today. Whether it can be fought tomorrow depends on the development of the situation. If the Jin army is very greedy and follows behind and attacks continuously, it will not be able to launch an attack tomorrow.
If the rebels were delayed for two days under Tongchang City, the consequences could be imagined. The reinforcements of the Liao people would come from all directions, and the rebels would not escape with wings.
"What do you mean by the Chief Commander?" Gao Baolong asked. After winning the battle, the situation was even more critical. He could only seek help from the gods and give the rebels a miracle.
"I haven't received a letter from the General Commander, but don't worry, the General Commander will have a way to conquer Tongchang City." Mao Jun was anxious, but his expression on his face was calm and calm, without any tension. This made everyone feel very at ease, and it felt that things were not yet desperate, and there was still help.
"Don't rest, do two things immediately." Mao Jun said, "Supervisor Bao personally led 500 people to cross the mountains and opened a temporary passage. Then the four generals and horse army encircled the south of the city along the passage, blocking all the troops coming to support Liao."
Gao Baolong bowed to accept the order.
Jiang was still old and was so angry. When everyone was helpless, the veteran was still calm and tried his best to find a way to win. At this moment, Mao's army only had the horse army, so of course we had to use the horse army's maneuver and speed to surround the city, cut off the fantasy of the Liao army waiting for rescue, and hit the morale of the Liao army.
"TieShip, TuoShip, please set up camps outside the northern city and build camps overnight." Mao Jun pointed to the mountain road near the nearby mountain roads and the hills on both sides of the mountain roads. "There are all camps in these places, and they are integrated into one, creating the illusion of the camps for several miles and shocking the Liao army in the city."
Tieying and Ying Qin took the order and left. Ying Qin did not dare to hesitate at this time. He had suffered a loss once. After learning about Mao Jun's strength, he did not dare to provoke him anymore. In this situation, it is better to be obedient.
"Ghost Commander..." Mao's army pointed to the mountains and forests in the southeast. "After the horse army crossed the temporary passage, I immediately arranged for more than 100,000 people to dig a temporary mountain road. You lead the King of Hell to set up a formation on the east side of the city. If the Liao army goes out of the city to attack and kill, it will be blocked."
Zhang Gao'er agreed. This Maoqiu did have a few tricks. If it were him, he would have to catch up now and didn't know how to start. But this person is different. He can still find a way to attack the city. I admire him. However, even though he admired him, he was still a little confused. "Shishou, although this mountain is not high, it probably takes some time to dig a mountain road several miles long. Do we have that time?"
"Only 100,000 people, digging day and night, it should be fine to dig a simple mountain road within a few days." Mao Jun said, "In a desperate situation, we had to throw away the baggage and bring people and livestock over."
Zhang Gao'er understood. After all, the Mao army had no confidence in conquering Tongchang City, and he was going to flee around the city.
"I urgently report to the General General and the General General's Mansion and retreat immediately." Mao Jun looked up at the night sky and sighed, "I hope God will help us, and I will give us a few more days, so we must not snow." General General General Li Hu.
Li Hu woke up from his sleep and came to the patriarch's tent in a daze. Seeing Wuyan. Li Hu was not surprised at all. He estimated that Zong Wang would send someone to threaten him, but he didn't expect that Wuyan was.
"How is the loss of the Jin army?" Li Hu was most concerned about this matter. He suffered serious losses, and of course he also hoped that the Jin people would suffer heavy losses, otherwise he would feel unbalanced.
Wuyan stood up and saluted respectfully. He was wearing a mask and could not see the expression on his face, but from those eyes he could see that he admired Li Hu very much. A rebel leader, who was deeply trapped in death, protected the people and the Han people to the death. Such a person is a real warrior and deserves respect.
Wuyan briefly explained the situation of the Jin army and the current situation. "If nothing unexpected happens, Yelu Chun's army is on the road to Chengzhou, and Zong Wang is going to solve the problem here before Wanyan Gao arrives in Tokyo, so he has ordered to urgently transfer Wanyan Zongfu's army to support. Zongfu's army is in Shunzhou, one hundred and twenty miles away, and he will definitely reach Mount Targas the day after tomorrow."
"How many troops are Zong Fu in his hands?" Li Hu asked.
"Twenty thousand foreign Han troops were all Bohai and Han people," Wuyan said, "As soon as Zong Fu came, Zong Wang had an army of 50,000."
Li Hu grinned and was about to curse, but when he saw Wuyan staring at him, he swallowed the swear words back, "Will Zong Wang still beat him today?"
"Tiger King..." Wuyan gave another deep tribute and said to Tiger King, which made Li Hu a little uncomfortable. He felt that this shameless person had ulterior motives.
"In the long run, the Tiger King went south to capture a piece of territory will have a great impact on the situation in Liaodong, but that's all. If the Tiger King wants to be the third king in Liaodong, especially in Youyan, it is impossible, and it will definitely be besieged by the Song, Liao and Jin sides."
Li Hu was a little sleepy at first, but when he said this, he was shocked and woke up. He stared at Wuyan for a long time, but he didn't say anything. Song, Liao and Jin siege? The Song Dynasty also wanted to hit me? Why? Ma Kuo didn't say that. He said that the Song Dynasty wanted to help him.
"Why?" Li Hu asked in surprise.
"Because you are a thief." Wuyan sneered, "For the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, he would rather seek skin with tigers than raise a wild wolf that eats people at home."
