Chapter 822 Lone Bamboo City

"Yuwentai lived up to expectations!"

A general covered in blood stood in front of Yuwen Yidougui.

Yu Wentai almost exhausted all his strength.

It is hard for Yuwen Yidougui to imagine that Yuwentai can come back alive.

Of the Wuchuan cavalry who came back with Yu Wentai, only a few hundred of the three thousand cavalry remained.

Geng Yan's Youzhou iron cavalry was ferocious, and Yu Wentai was able to come back alive. From Yuwen Yidougui's point of view, it was a miracle.

"You took the risk to rescue me. I promised you to govern the affairs of the tribe. Now that you come back alive, I will fulfill my promise. Everyone in the tribe except me must obey your orders."

Yuwen Yidougui did not break his promise, but promoted Yuwentai to a high position.

"Now that we are defeated, where should we go?"

Yuwentai asked Yuwen Yidougui.

"Guzhu City. Unexpectedly, an iron cavalry suddenly appeared. Our Xianbei cavalry was defeated like a mountain. We had to give up Yuyang County and Youbeiping and retreat to the Liaoxi Corridor. This is the order of King Ming."

In Guzhu City, a large number of Xianbei cavalry regiments retreated here.

Murong Ba and Murong Ke had to retreat because of the defeat of Duan Xianbei.

Murong Xianbei is also among the three major Xianbei tribes, the only Xianbei tribe that has not been defeated.

"The Duan Xianbei and Yuwen Xianbei seem unreliable. Only our Murong tribe has the ability to fight against King Xia's army."

Murong Ba seemed dissatisfied with Duan Xianbei and Yuwen Xianbei.

Murong Ke said: "It's not that the other two tribes are weak, but that King Xia's army is too strong. However, King Ming may still defeat them."

"Unless King Ming has some means, it will be very difficult for us Murong Xianbei and King Ming to contend with King Xia."

"Duke Ming dares to confront King Xia, he must have his means."

"Then let's see what kind of means King Ming has."

"Li Guang killed my younger brother!"

Duan Pidun, the leader of Duan's Xianbei, escaped alive and gritted his teeth.

Duan Wenyang was defeated by Li Guang for the second time, and this time, Duan Wenyang lost his life because of the defeat.

Murong Ba and Murong Ke discovered that Duan Xianbei and Yuwen Xianbei were defeated, and Murong Xianbei's family was the only one.

"Xia Jun has advanced to Liaoxi County!"

A cavalryman rode back and brought back information about the advance of King Xia's army.

All the Xianbei and Wuhuan tribes in Guzhu City, including Sun Chuanting and Lan Yu who had returned, all changed their expressions.

King Xia's troops drove straight in Yuyang County, and advanced eastward quickly, all the way like a broken bamboo.

The hundreds of thousands of troops in Guzhu City seemed to be facing a formidable enemy.

"King Xia really swallows thousands of miles like a tiger, and actually wants to annex the entire western Liaoning in one go."

"The fortress of Guzhu City has been remodeled for six years. There are many arrow towers. There are moats and trenches outside, and arrow towers, horse faces, and trebuchets inside. King Xia wants to defeat us. It is not easy."

"At least stick to Lone Bamboo City for a year."

Sun Chuanting and Lan Yu stood on the city wall. In Guzhu City, the Ming army had hoarded 100,000 soldiers.

The solid Guzhu City and the 100,000 defenders are Sun Chuanting's strength to defend Guzhu City.

The Xia army advanced to Guzhu City to achieve its own strategic goals, while the Ming army stuck to Guzhu City, Sun Chuanting was in charge of defending the city, and Xianbei and Wuhuan cavalry stationed troops on the periphery to cooperate with Guzhu City.

The next day, the defenders of Lone Bamboo City could already see a black line appearing on the horizon in the distance, and Xia Jun's cavalry changed from a black line to a black wave all over the mountains and plains.

Xia Jun's battle flag fluttered in the strong wind, and Xia Houyuan, as the vanguard general, took the lead and looked at Guzhu City not far away.

The city wall of Guzhu City was raised to fifteen meters.

That's pretty crazy heights.

Mingguan seemed to have thought that there would be pressure today, so he desperately reinforced Lone Bamboo City as a way out.

Apart from Liaodong City, Guzhu City is already the strongest city, and it is also the barrier for Mingguan forces to defend the Liaoxi Corridor.

"Everyone stop!"

Xia Houyuan raised his whip high, and a thousand light cavalry reined in one after another. For a while, the cavalry were faintly visible in the sand and dust.

Although there are only a thousand light cavalry, it is enough to deter Guzhu City, which has hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, because behind Xia Houyuan is a huge Xia army, and King Xia is also behind!

The hundreds of thousands of defenders in Guzhu City were alarmed by Xia Houyuan's thousand cavalry!

"Just take Guzhu City, our cavalry will drive straight in and attack Liucheng and Liaodong City, and King Xia will lose a powerful opponent."

Xia Houyuan probably understood the current situation.

Lone Bamboo City is bound to win!

More than 500,000 soldiers and horses from Youzhou marched into Liaoxi County, and a series of heavy armored cavalry formed a torrent of steel with thousands of banners.

The Xianbei and Wuhuan cavalry were extremely nervous and kept shrinking their defenses to confront Xia's army.

"King Xia is coming to Guzhu City in person!"

"It is said that King Xia's cavalry is the fiercest in the entire Han Empire. Soon we will have the opportunity to see King Xia's cavalry."

Murong Ba and Murong Ke looked up from the heights, feeling afraid of Chu Tian who had not yet made a move in Youzhou.

Chutian and Mingguan had never tried to fight head-to-head, but at this time, the two almost arrived in Liaoxi County one after the other!

The Xuanjia army wore a black cloak, tall and big horses, holding a horse lance in their hands, and the two Xuanjia army leaders, Yu Chigong and Cheng Yaojin, opened the way in front.

Cao Cao's Army, Zhou Yafu's Army, Wei Qing's Army, Geng Yan's Army, and the four major armies of the Youzhou Army all made way for the Imperial Guards. The Imperial Guard Legion has a high status in the Chutian forces, and has high-level heavy cavalry that decides the outcome of the battlefield.

The attack on Lone Bamboo City this time not only had to attack the strong fortress, but also had to defeat the Mingguan reinforcements.

This is the confrontation of the two most powerful cavalry of the Han Empire.

In the rear of the Xuanjia army, the cowardly Xue army led by Tai Shici carried a strong bow and was full of murderous intent.

Under the command of King Arthur and Joan of Arc, special servants such as the Knights of the Round Table and the French National Defense Army opened the way for Chutian.

Afterwards, Mi Fang led the Fifth School of the Northern Army, General Xing Daorong of Lingling led the Huben Army, Dian Wei commanded the Tiger Guard Army, and Chu Tian was in the Tiger Guard Army.

There are also Xiao Chuo's Khitan Army and Hua Mulan's Women's Army in the rear.

In addition to high-ranking troops, the Janissaries also have a large number of low-ranking troops, reaching a huge 300,000!

"Where is the Guzhu City where Mingguan hoarded heavy troops? We must demolish this fortress, capture Liaoxi and Liaodong in one fell swoop, and wipe out all the tribes."

Chu Tian took Xiao Chuo, Sun Bin and other think tanks, climbed up and looked out, Guzhu City was lined with arrow towers, hoarding a large amount of food and grass.

"The first step is to attack the enemy, the second is to attack the enemy, and the next step is to attack the city. It will take a lot of time to attack Guzhu City."

When Sun Bin saw the fortified Guzhu City, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

If necessary, with the manpower and material resources of the Chutian forces, it is also possible to build a fortress.

However, building a fortress cannot be compared with capturing a fortress.
