Chapter 789: Sunrise in the East (14)
"Ye Bin, the palace guard's flag has disappeared for almost a day, and it has never come back, right?" Ye Feng stared at the Donghu military camp in the distance, and reached out to summon his last remaining personal guard, Ye Bin. This is Ye Bin. The last person among the dozen or so Ye family dead men sent to him
"Yes, Young Master, the other party's palace guards have been gone for a long time. They have not participated in the attack. They seem to be waiting for something." Ye Bin said while wiping the blood on the knife with a rag.
Ye Feng was silent for a long time, and then said slowly: "I understand, the defenders at our gate have become bait for the Donghu people. They don't really want to attack us, but they are concentrating their efforts to attack our reinforcements."
Ye Bin raised his head excitedly
"The Liaoning Guard does not have enough troops. If the opponent sets a trap, our reinforcements will be in danger."
"Master, what should we do now?" Ye Bin inserted the knife into the scabbard and murmured, if the reinforcements are destroyed, then they who are the bait will only have the fate of being swallowed up.
"We have no choice." Ye Feng shook his head helplessly, "There are at least two thousand cavalry down there. We currently have no more than 800 fighting men. We have lost almost half of them. We can't rush out at all, and we left the camp. After the field battle, How can we be the opponent of the cavalry? Now we can only wait and see what happens and hope that nothing happens to the reinforcements."
Ye Feng hoped that nothing would happen to the reinforcements, but in fact, something had already happened to the reinforcements. Agu Huaien set out with great hope and wanted to make a great contribution to gain a foothold in the Eastern Expedition Army, but he ran into Yuwen head-on. Among the three thousand palace guards led by Ke Qin, even if Agu Huai'en's force is three times that of the palace guards, the palace guards' long-standing image of being invincible among the Donghu troops is unbreakable, and Agu has not yet fought. Wynn's men saw the flag of the palace guard. His courage has already weakened by three points. What's more important is that Agu Huaien's subordinates are indeed as He Lanxiong guessed. Not everyone followed Agu Huai'en all the way to the dark side, when the palace guards came like an angry wave. These people actually ran away
An avalanche-like rout occurred quickly. No matter how hard Agu Huaien tried, his troops could only last for less than an hour. When Agu Huaien's direct bodyguards were defeated by the palace guards, When Agu Huai'en's banner fell, the entire Agu army collapsed completely.
The mountains and plains were full of fleeing Agu troops, some fleeing towards Donghu. Some fled in the direction of He Lanxiong's army, and some followed Agu Huai'en and fled all the way to the direction of Liaoning Guard.
The palace guards under Yu Wenke divided a part to pursue the fleeing Agu deserters, and he personally led the main force, chasing Agu Huai'en all the way to the Liaoning Acropolis.
Meng Chong stood at the top of the city, looking at Agu Huaien's army with a heavy expression. Naturally, the Liaoning Acropolis would not open its doors at this time.
Aguhuaien could only flee around the city, but Yuwen Ke walked away after circling the city to demonstrate to the defenders.
This battle. Of Agu Huaien's 10,000 cavalry, only more than 2,000 were able to return to the Liaoning Acropolis in the end. Either they escaped or they became Yu Wenke's captives
When He Lanxiong knew that Agu Huai'en was defeated, he knew that he could no longer be entangled like this. After a while of strangulation, when Yu Wenke's palace guards came back, he would not be able to escape.
"Break through the encirclement, toward the direction of Jiepukou, break out of the encirclement!" He Lanxiong shouted sternly
He Lanxiong personally led He Lanmin. He Lanjie, Helian Po and other generals and their soldiers. Charge forward bravely, these people have outstanding fighting ability. Finally, they were able to fight their way out of the siege of tens of thousands of cavalry and headed straight to the entrance of Jiepu.
When Yu Wenming, who was under the command of Jie Pu, saw the Zhengdong cavalry coming like a tide, he was so frightened that he didn't know what was going on. He immediately retreated with his troops. If he chose to attack at this time, he would probably be killed. They will be attacked from both sides by this cavalry and the defenders at Jiepukou.
He Lanxiong rushed to the Jiepukou military camp with blood stains. Nearly 2,000 of the 5,000 athletes who followed him stayed on that battlefield forever.
"Commander!" Ye Feng came up to him. Just when He Lanxiong led his army to rush to the entrance of Shangjie Pu, he also led his army to attack and formed a formation halfway up the road to prevent the following Donghu cavalry from taking the opportunity to charge into the formation. Che and Kirgiz originally thought so, but after the rain of crossbows from the waiting pacesetter battalion gave them a head-on baptism, they had to retreat.
"Yes, it seems that the Donghu people have paid a high price here." He Lanxiong patted Ye Feng, who was also covered in blood, and said with appreciation.
"You shouldn't have come, this is a trap set by the Donghu people," Ye Feng said in a deep voice, "If you come, you will be trapped here like me."
"The pacesetter battalion is also my brother, how can I just sit back and watch you fall here?" He Lanxiong looked around at the soldiers in the pacesetter camp and said with a smile: "The Donghu people are not that good, so they let us kill them easily all the way. here!"
Hearing He Lanxiong's words, the soldiers in the surrounding pacesetter camp laughed loudly and their expressions became much more relaxed.
Ye Feng didn't think so. He looked at He Lanmin, He Lanjie, He Lianpo and other cavalry generals under He Lanxiong. They were all here, but the cavalrymen who went to Dejiepukou were only three thousand at most, and Dongfang There are more than 5,000 cavalrymen in the group army. In other words, He Lanxiong and others have lost more than 2,000 people when they rushed here.
Just when he was about to say something, He Lanxiong grabbed Ye Feng's shoulder and said, "I've been fighting for a long time today and I'm exhausted. Find a place for me to take a rest. Also, are there any other good things in your Jiepukou military camp?" You can’t be at a loss for the brothers who came to rescue you. Take it out and let the brothers have a good meal."
"That's natural!" Ye Feng knew that He Lanxiong didn't want to leak the true situation at this time. He nodded, stretched out his hand to call Ye Bin, and told him to make arrangements. However, he accompanied He Lanxiong back to his residence in the military camp.
"The situation is not good?" He looked at He Lanxiong
After entering the room, He Lanxiong sat down on the chair tiredly, spread out his arms and legs, and tried to lie down as comfortably as possible, "It's not bad, it's very bad. Yu Wenke has nearly 30,000 cavalry under his command. And it's even more of a headache." What's more, there are three thousand palace guards among them. These three thousand palace guards have defeated Aguhuaien's ten thousand cavalry. These three thousand palace guards alone are enough to defeat us." He Lanxiong, who never admits defeat, was a little annoyed. Authentic: "If it were normal times, I wouldn't be afraid of them. But now, he has helpers, but we have to fight alone."
"Why do you come even though you know the danger? Your opponent is clearly using me as bait to lure you into taking the bait. I don't believe you can't see it." Ye Feng said, "If you come, not only will you not be able to save me, but you will also trap yourself." Come in, if Commander Meng comes to rescue us regardless of everything, then everyone will be trapped here and the Liaoning Guard will be in danger."
"I'm very happy that you can see this. Don't worry, Meng Chong will not come. Before leaving, I have issued a strict order, no matter what. He is not allowed to leave the Liaoning Guard, otherwise, he will be punished for violating military orders after the war. "Discuss" He Lanxiong waved his hand. "Meng Chong is not a person who doesn't care about the overall situation. He knows exactly what he should do now."
"Then why are you here?" Ye Feng stared at He Lanxiong
He Lanxiong also looked at him, and after a while he said: "Boy, sometimes war is more than just wielding knives face to face. I'm here because you are Ye Feng."
Ye Feng bit his lip tightly, lowered his head, and said after a long while: "If the governor of Jiepukou is not me, but another battalion commander, there will never be reinforcements, right?"
"Of course!" He Lanxiong said matter-of-factly: "I'm not a fool. I know it's a trap. Why do I still step in?"
"Is it worth it for me alone? Now you are trapped here! There are thousands of cavalry!" Ye Feng shouted
He Lanxiong looked at him coldly. After a while, he said: "It's not worth it. If I don't come, you are dead. If I come, you still have a chance to survive. It's not for anything else, just because you are Ye Feng, Ye Jing'er's brother, and the governor's brother-in-law." You can't die here, especially under my nose."
Ye Feng suddenly became weak, and after a while he said: "Is this politics?"
"That's right!" He Lanxiong laughed, "Ye Feng, you don't have to be so sad. I'm not just doing this for you. After all, in the end, I am doing it for myself and for our Huns." You will understand the reason later. Just be prepared. We are going to break through tonight."
"Breaking through?" Ye Feng said in surprise: "There are cavalry outside. Even if we break out, how can we outrun the cavalry?"
"Because only the cavalry will break out." He Lanxiong looked at Ye Feng with a cold look in his eyes.
"Are you going to abandon the others in the pacesetter camp?" Ye Feng looked at him in shock.
"If there is any other way, I won't do it," He Lanxiong said sadly: "The strong men cut off their wrists. That's all. They will cover our breakout. Tonight, when we break out, they will break out with a cavalry force in the direction of the Liaoning Guard." , at the same time, Meng Chong will make the illusion of deploying the entire army in the Liaoning Guard, attracting some of the Donghu troops, and we will break out towards the Donghu territory. After breaking out this time, we will not return to the Liaoning Guard, we will go Donghu's and Lin go for a walk"
Ye Feng took a step back, stared at He Lanxiong, shook his head and said: "I will not leave my brothers."
He Lanxiong looked at him coldly, "Do you want to disobey the military order? This is the military order given to you by the Commander of the Eastern Group Army, He Lanxiong. I am not negotiating with you. Are you qualified to negotiate with me?"
Ye Feng looked at him stubbornly, pursed his lips tightly, and said nothing.
He Lanxiong sighed, stood up, walked slowly to Ye Feng, put his hands on his shoulders, "This is a last resort. If you don't leave, more people will die with you."
"You go, I won't leave!" Ye Feng still shook his head
He Lanxiong stared at Ye Feng's eyes, seeing the other person staring at him without giving in or giving in. He smiled slightly, suddenly raised his hand, and struck Ye Feng's neck with a knife. Ye Feng never expected that He Lanxiong would attack him. , without even a word of humming, he fell to the ground.
"Come here, tie up this stubborn little guy and gag him!" He Lanxiong shouted (to be continued)
