Chapter 433: Wetland Attack

The two guards did not lie. This is what their boss told them. In fact, for the sake of confidentiality of this battle, except for some senior generals, the vast majority of middle and lower-level officers and soldiers received information.

The entire guard Zhang Yuting tribe of the left guard of the Guard has always been responsible for the task of the palace in the entire rebels. In this big counterattack, they transformed into the first blockers. The 30,000 tribes have to block the attack of the 100,000 elite cavalry of the Aslandal tribe for a considerable period of time, and it is extremely difficult for them to block the attack of the 100,000 elite cavalry of the Aslandal tribe for a considerable period of time.

Block the opponent's attack and tempt the enemy to invest more troops in this area, thereby gaining time for the encirclement of the left and right wings and completing the large encirclement of the main force of the Mongolian army. You can imagine how much pressure they will bear. If the soldiers knew that they actually had a way out, the morale of the army would inevitably be shaken. After thinking about it, Zhang Yuting decided to conceal this news from the soldiers and all the middle and lower-level officers, just telling them that they had no way out and there were pursuers behind them. Instead of being comrades in the same comrades, it would be better to turn around and fight to the death with the Mongolian army.

As such an army that had fought with the Mongolian Yuan army for several years in Taizhou, their hatred for the Mongolian Yuan was self-evident. When they found that they had no way out, the whole army had a tragic atmosphere. The atmosphere of killing one is enough to earn two and earn one is slowly fermenting in the army. This is exactly what Zhang Yuting wanted. Only by putting it to death and living can he survive as much as possible in this tragic battle.

After obtaining the information of the quorum, Jamuha received the same reply from the continuous capture of the Tixiao Guards in the next two days. He felt relieved. This was just a lonely army.

Although he let down a big stone in his heart, Jamuha did not relax at all. Such an army that killed him was the most difficult to deal with. They would never give up until the end. Fortunately, Gao Chao did not have a strong and steep city wall. This made his next military action less obstacles.

"Catch them!" Jamuka looked around the generals, "This will be the last battle before we cross the Cangjiang River. If we defeat our opponents, we will have a smooth road ahead."

"Albugu!"

"The last one will be here!"

"You are the main attacker and attack Zhang Yuting's troops head-on!"

"Abide by the order!"

"Sihan!"

"The last one will be here!"

"You lead 5,000 elite cavalry to circumference on the flanks. Have you seen this place?" Jamukhe pointed to a place on the left of Gao Chao. "This place is called Cangping, and the whistle cavalry returns. Here. Zhang Yuting only has one whistle and about 500 people stationed, and attacked at night. After taking this place, cross the Xiaoqing River and moving forward twenty miles, you can directly attack Gao Chaocheng. Zhang Yuting's central army will be stationed here. If Gao Chaocheng can be captured in one fell swoop, then the enemy will be in chaos without fighting."

"Yes, General. What is the situation in Xiaoqing River? What is the depth of the water and how wide the water surface? Is it suitable for cavalry assault?" Sihan asked.

"Good question!" Jamukha glanced at him with admiration, "Xiaoqing River is only about twenty meters wide, and the deepest part is only about two meters. The shallowest part is no more than one meter. There will be no obstacles for war horses to cross the river. The only problem is that the Xiaoqing River is about ten miles in a radius, with many tidal flats and wetlands and many swamps. When you pass through this area, you must be careful."

"I understand!" Sihan nodded.

"Because of the special terrain of this area, Zhang Yuting ignored it and sent only one post to stay. He probably thought we would not risk passing through this area." Jamuha smiled and said, "According to surprise, he caught him off guard. As long as you can directly attack Gao Chaocheng, Ah Bugu in the front will be greatly reduced."

"Don't worry, General." Sihan waved his fist, "The swamp tidal flats cannot stop Dayuan Jianer."

"Today, we will have dinner at the third update tomorrow, and we will start attacking from the front in the fourth update." Jamukha punched the case, "take Gao Chao and wipe out Zhang Yuting's troops!"

"Here!" All the generals stood up and responded loudly to Jamuha's order.

Cangping, an unknown small place, located on the right side of Gaochao City, thirty-seven miles apart. Because of the Xiaoqing River, there are mudflats, wetlands and swamps everywhere. Not to mention cavalry or infantry, it is impossible to pass through this area without a familiar guide. Zhang Yuting placed 500 people here, which was very careful.

The whistleman guarding Cangping is Xu Zhongze, who is 35 years old this year. He was quite unhappy because he had such a job. However, the military orders should not be violated. He still came here unwillingly while complaining. Other comrades were fighting against the enemy in front, but he was watching the sun and counting stars in this place where birds do not lay eggs, which was really annoying.

He is now a halberd captain and a middle-level officer. He does not know the secret of this battle, but as a great Yue man, he can fight a happy battle with the Meng people in such a situation, and he will not be in vain for this life.

He admired General Zhang Yuting very much. Although Zhang Yuting's decision was equivalent to taking them on a life-and-death road, he did not resent at all. He was already thirty-five and had no hope of getting promoted in this life, but there was no regret. His wife gave birth to three sons for him and had not been home for several years. The boy at home might be able to help his mother with some work now. The eldest son should have become the pillar of the family. In another two years, he would have to be a wife. Unfortunately, he did not have the blessing of holding a grandson. It was just to allow his own people to live a peaceful life and not let the people set foot on the territory of the Central Plains. He was willing to fight his life here.

If the mistress hits in, I am afraid that nothing will be left in the house. My wife is very capable. Even if she doesn’t have her, she will arrange her home properly, but she will suffer herself. Thinking of her wife’s gentle gaze and warm chest, Xu Zhongze’s eyes were a little wet.

Lying on the wet lawn, Xu Zhong wiped his tears. He wouldn't stay here for too long. Once the front was tight, he would definitely be transferred. The fate of their troops was already destined, that is, the battle was the last person, and the last drop of blood was exhausted, and it was the end.

The lawn suddenly vibrated, and a rumbling sound came from the sky. When Xu Zhongze opened his eyes, there were still stars in the sky. In an instant, cold sweat oozed out of his body. It was a cavalry! He was very familiar with this movement for several years in Taizhou. It was only the cavalry of the Mongol Yuan, and the guards did not have so many cavalry. They actually took the risk of attacking Cangping, wanting to attack Gao Chaocheng directly.

Looking back at the distance, Xu Zhong understood the other party's intentions.

Big beads of sweat were constantly coming out on their foreheads, and Cangping had no danger to defend. Listening to the sound of hooves, there were afraid that there would be thousands of cavalrymen. However, these five hundred squadrons were afraid that they would not be able to withstand an attack from the enemy and would be submerged under the iron hooves.

The sound of warning horns rang out in the camp, and the sleeping soldiers rushed out of the camp tent, holding their weapons and looking at their commanders.

"Abandon the camp!" Xu Zhongze gritted his teeth and issued an order.

"Person Xu, where are we going?" asked a soldier.

"Cangping has no defense, but behind us, there is Xiaoqing River and a large swamp!" A decisive light flashed in Xu Zhongze's eyes, "We cross the Xiaoqing River and go to the swamp to intercept the enemy!"

"Now listen to my orders, after crossing Xiaoqing River, hide separately in teams, and fight each other. Our purpose is to drag the enemy forward. We cannot defeat the enemy, but we can make them difficult and drag their pace to the slowest." Xu Zhongze's eyes swept over all the soldiers behind him, "We will die, but we must die worthwhile. Even if we can only hold the enemy for an hour, it is enough to make General Zhang of Gao Chao react!"

"clear!"

"Carry your weapons and burn the big tent, let's go!" Xu Zhongze picked up his knife and strode towards Xiaoqing River not far away.

The blazing river ignited, and the Xiaowei Camp in Cangping fell into a sea of ​​fire, like a beacon in the darkness.

Sihan saw the raging fire in the dark night. It must be the enemy's tent. He discovered his movements and abandoned the tent and fled.

"The reaction was quite fast!" Sihan sneered. He really didn't take the five hundred stances seriously.

"Bring them up!" Sihan turned around and said.

Several locally dressed people were brought up. They were the local people captured by Sihan. They knew the distribution of swamps here and could find a suitable way to move forward from places covered with swamps and wetlands.

"I will reward you with you with a lot of money, otherwise, I will not only kill you, but also burn your house, make your whole family a slave, and let them graze in the desert!" Sihan said viciously.

"The villain understands, the villain understands, the roads in this swamp are familiar with, so I must take the adults here!" A local man in his early forties nodded and said.

"Lead the way forward!" Sihan waved his hand, and a team of cavalry led several guides toward Xiaoqing River.

Without any effort, Sihan's vanguard troops, led by several guides, found a shallow place, waded through the water, crossed the Xiaoqing River, and stepped into the swamp ten miles of Fangyuan.

The guide held the torch and carefully led the road ahead. Between the left and right turns, they led the cavalry slowly through the swamps.

In the distance, Xu Zhongze gritted his teeth and looked at the Mongolian cavalry who were advancing under the torch.

"Kill those guides!" Xu Zhongze turned around and ordered.
