Chapter 118 Decision

?The Sui cavalry suddenly appeared, which made Yuwen Wen once doubt his life. He felt that he was in the game world. The system made a mistake and brushed out the monsters that should not have appeared, otherwise it would be impossible to explain the www..lā

He just felt his head was messy. At first, he thought he had been masturbating too much, but then he thought that he had never masturbated before, so the Sui army must be right.

What's the promised eight passes of Taihang have been blocked? Where did these Sui army jump out? More than a thousand cavalrymen!

The scale of more than a thousand cavalry cannot be climbing a mountain by horses. That is to say, a certain pass among the eight passes of Taihang was opened by the Sui army. Looking at the direction of the opponent's attack, the person who was about to go to Jingxing, north of Xiangguo, west of Zhending.

It is said that Jingxingkou is more than 200 miles away from Xiangguo, and Xiangguo is about forty or fifty miles here. In this way, it is a typical tactic of cavalry galloping day and night and raiding for 300 miles.

The cavalry that can march at night is elite. If a thousand elites are used well, they can defeat tens of thousands of enemy troops. What's more, the emperor's travel team on Yuwen Wen's side is mixed with many palace maids, eunuchs, mail servants and civil servants, which are not real troops at all.

What to do? Should we shrink and resist the impact of the cavalry, or let the leader go first? Nothing is easy to do!

This team is escorted by imperial guards, and with armed palace guards, there are not less than a thousand combatants. It seems that they can fight, but the bad things are that there are a large number of non-combatants, and these pig teammates will only be bad things.

Now it is a regular marching queue. Overall, it is a one-line snake formation. If you want to shrink into several groups immediately, it would be fine if it was the Hulin Army, because this is a must-practice subject, but where can non-combatants such as palace maids and eunuchs do it?

Infantry resistance to cavalry is relying on spear formations with bows and crossbows to attack. The current situation can not be achieved quickly, not to mention that most people don’t even have spears in their hands.

The imperial guards can dismount and join the guards together, but a large number of non-combatants will rush around to block the gathering speed. The Sui cavalry is now only about two or three miles away from the team, and they rushed to the scene in an instant, and there is no time left.

If the formation fails, the cavalry can disperse the infantry that is several times more than it can be achieved by a charge, followed by a tragic massacre. Infantry in the form of scattered soldiers is simply unable to counterattack the cavalry's harvest.

In this way, there is only one who can "let the leader go first", because the Sui army's target was obviously the emperor.

How did the Sui army know that the Zhou emperor was here? There was no time to think about it. The safety of the emperor was of great importance. Since he could not defend himself, he had to transfer him. Taking advantage of the fact that the Sui army was still a bit far away, he quickly took the emperor away.

Run south, and you will reach Yiyang City for more than ten miles. Once you enter the city, it will be safe. Yiyang is the prefecture of Mingzhou, and there will be no fewer defenders. As long as the city gate is closed, you can defend and wait for assistance. Even when you rush through Mingshui, you can defend the stone bridge to block the pursuers in the back.

Then the surrounding Zhou army was summoned to serve the king. Yi Yang was only about a hundred miles away from Yecheng. The army would soon come to support him. The Sui army that attacked him would definitely not dare to stay for a long time and retreat, so that the emperor would not be in danger of his life.

But the question is: the emperor leaves first, who will cut off the rear?

The Sui army's cavalry had entered a charge state and was very fast. They took the emperor on their horses and ran away. After the horses started to speed, the Sui army was probably approaching, so they had to organize manpower to intercept them. So who would organize them?

It is said that the emperor is asking for the order, but this young man who is young and may be shocked to such an emergency situation. Then the Zuogong Bo Yuchi Jing, who is in charge of security, is responsible for the responsibility, but this man cannot stay.

His mission is to protect the emperor, and to monitor the emperor. He is to watch this Buddha statue for the Yuchi family, so it is necessary to protect the emperor personally. He will only escort the emperor to evacuate and cannot stay to command and intercept it.

When he saw the enemy army coming, Yuwen Wen had made a decision in the flash. He turned over and got off the horse and ran to the emperor's car. He ignored the eunuch's stop and forcibly broke through and rushed in, pulling Yuwen Gankeng off the car.

"Xiyang Gong, you...what are you going to do!"

"Your Majesty, go!"

Yuwen Wen did not care about the rudeness, carried Yuwen Gankeng on his shoulders and said to Yuchi Jing who had caught up, "Duke Lu, take Your Majesty away quickly!!"

Yuchi Jing was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then nodded vigorously, sued him and carried the little emperor onto his mount, then turned over to the horse, Yuwen Gankeng came to his senses a little and asked Yuwen Wen:

"Mr. Xiyang, what happened?"

"Your Majesty, the Sui Army is here to kill you. Please leave quickly!"

"Ah! What should I do?" Yuwen Gankeng was so scared that his face was pale.

"Duke Lu, take His Majesty away quickly, I'll cut off the rear!"

"You, follow me to escort Your Majesty, you will stay and cut off the rear!" Yuchi Jing shouted loudly. Yuwen Wen decided to stay and cut off the rear. This was beyond his expectations. However, the situation is critical at the moment, and only this is appropriate.

"Mr. Xiyang, you go too!" Yuwen Gankeng shouted. He saw the dust flying in the distance, and seemed to be rushing towards him, knowing that the situation was not good now.

"Your Majesty, please leave first. I am the one who cuts the rear for you!" Yuwen Wen smiled at the little emperor, then turned around and left.

In a moment, Yuwen Wen and Yuchi Jing had made a decision. Yuwen Wen stayed with several imperial guards to cut off the rear, and Yuchi Jing took the emperor to ride a horse and galloped southward, with hundreds of cavalry following closely.

"The Sui army is here! Everyone is moving closer to the carriage! Prepare to join the battle!"

Yuwen Wen shouted loudly, and the news spread, and the entire team began to fluctuate. Some people who responded quickly were already frightened and turned pale. Some had not yet come back to their senses, and looked at each other. Some people looked back and then shouted in fear.

"The Sui army is here, the Sui army is here!"

"Hurry, get closer to me, get closer to the carriage, pick up everything you can take as a weapon, form a formation, form a formation!" The general of the imperial guard shouted loudly, directing his subordinates to gather towards him. Yuwen Wen separated the crowd and ran towards the middle of the team.

He made a decision, that was to break the rear personally, not to be a treacherous person, but to be in a state of mind. This is the only way. Today, Zhou State can be without Xiyang County Duke Yuwen Wen, and it cannot be without Emperor Yuwen Gankeng.

If Yuwen Gankeng dies, who will succeed to the throne? Duke Qi Yuwen Liang? Duke Qi Yuwen Ming, Duke Qi Yuwen Wen? This is impossible. Will Yuchi and his family be willing to take office as an adult royal family?

So let the next generation of Xiao Yuwen succeed to the throne? What should their grandfather Yuwen Liang, father Yu Wenming or Yuwen Wen do? Become the regent? How should Prime Minister Yuchi Jiong deal with himself? Who will take control of the power of the court?

If this is true, only Yuwen Wen's legitimate son Yuwen Weicheng is suitable, because he is bleeding from Yuwen and Yuchi at the same time, which can be acceptable to both parties, but even so, it still cannot solve the problem.

No matter which Yuwen proclaims himself emperor, he must follow the principle of proximity and stay in his own territory in Shannan. If the new emperor does not want to go to Yecheng, then will Prime Minister Yuchi from Yecheng come to Shannan?

Therefore, the Yuchi family has a high chance of watching coldly and allowing the Sui army to break through Shannan, they can be "helpless" independent.

Just like the story of Xiao Liang back then, after the Jiangling where Emperor Yuan of Liang Xiao Yi was captured by the Western Wei army, the last chance of Liang State was cut off. General Chen Baxian replaced it in Jiankang and established the Chen State.

Yuwen Gankeng cannot die now. If he dies, then Zhou will be at the end. Therefore, Yuwen Wen faces a cruel choice, but the answer is also very simple: Let Yuwen Gankeng leave quickly and try his best to ensure his life safety.

The enemy army came, and the emperor had to leave and command the imperial guards. The guards' Zuo Gongbo also retreated. There must be a person of some importance to stay and command the troops to intercept the enemy. Although Yuwen Wen was not the boss of the imperial guards or the guards, he was at least a royal family.

If all the people from the Yuwen family escaped, who would be willing to sacrifice their lives for the Yuwen family?

The person who stayed was the flesh shield. He wanted to block the charge speed of the Sui army as much as possible and gain valuable time for the emperor's retreat. Only Yuwen Wen could use the perhaps not very intelligent royal family name to call everyone to fight his life.

Maybe he will die, but as long as the little emperor is safe and sound, the delicate balance of power in Zhou State can be preserved. As long as Zhou State is present, there will be a living space for Yuwen and a living space for Yuwen Wen’s wife and children.

This is his decision, just like in Chang'an, he was willing to use his own life to defeat Yang Jian's life, exchange for the stability of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the life path of his family.

Another reason is that Zhou Faming, Tian Yilong and his guards were still in the middle and back of the team. There was no time left to let them escape, so they could only stand together and stand together.

He can't leave his own people and run away!

Yuwen Wen was a royal family, so he could ride a horse and follow the emperor's carriage. Zhou Faming and Tian Yilong could only line up in the middle of the line like other entourages. Once the team was in chaos, there would not even be a chance to escape.

Zhou Faming and Tian Yilong followed Yuwen Wen to Yecheng, so Yuwen Wen wanted to bring them back to Bazhou. If he just left his own people, what kind of face would he have to go back?

This is the commander of the first army who left his troops and escaped at the forefront!

He quickly found Zhou Faming and others, and Zhang Dingfa and Zhang Yu and other guards were all together. After seeing Yuwen Wen, he asked at the same time: "What's going on? Why did the Sui army appear here?"

"No matter how many, now I follow my command, I will raid the guys' backs against the carriage to form a formation, block the road and intercept the Sui army, and be the back of His Majesty!"

The sound of horse hooves was heard, and the surging Sui cavalry had approached the team. People were panicking and running around. Some followed the command and gathered to the side of the carriage, while more people fled to the wilderness on both sides of the road.

Facing the enemy troops that were about to come, the entire team was in chaos in an instant. The generals shouted hard, but they could not organize an effective defensive formation at all. Only the imperial guards and guards came back to their senses, approached the carriage, and tried to get together.
