Although Da Song and Tufan's joint efforts were huge, they did not catch Yan Yun off guard.
Judging from the intelligence held by Yan Yun, from the very beginning, Yan Yun could almost conclude that both Da Song and Tufan were the same in this operation against Xijing Road.
But in any case, the union of Da Song and Tufan at this time is indeed a huge and aggressive.
The Song Dynasty sent an army of 80,000, with an army of 50,000 and an army of 130,000, and they were approaching the defense line of Xijing Road.
And on Xijing Road, how many people does Yanyun have? Very few, it is pitiful.
Fang La, the chief governor of Zhenxi, in addition to guarding Xijing Road, he was originally responsible for the western part of Yanyun Sixteen Prefecture. This time he was ordered to garrison Xijing Road. He only brought 30,000 horses, and the remaining 20,000 horses were still stationed. In Yanyun sixteen states;
As for Tong Ying, the chief governor of Zhennan, the number of people he can use is even scarcer. Although he has one hundred thousand northwest frontiers under his command, don't forget that he guards the entire Yanyunnan border.
The Yanyunnan border is too long, and it is not the same concept as the western border. He only sent 20,000 horses to Xijing Road, and he himself never came to Xijing Road.
The reason is simple. Yan Yun was very worried. Da Song’s attack on Xijing Road was a pretense. In case Tongying left the southern border without permission and rushed to Xijing Road, Da Song and Tufan attacked Xijing Road while taking advantage of the situation to attack Yanyun Yunnan. It's a big event.
In short, on Xijing Road today, Yan Yun has only a poor 50,000 horses, but what they need to face is the 130,000 horses of Song Dynasty and Tufan!
Quantitative changes can cause qualitative changes.
Let Yanyun fight against the 2,000 people of the Song Dynasty with a thousand troops. Yan Yun is really fearless, so he rushes forward and kills him. Yan Yun is brave and good at fighting, and he never fears one enemy two.
However, it would be difficult for Yan Yun to face 130,000 enemy troops with 50,000 horses.
On a truly large-scale battlefield, although personal combat power cannot be said to be meaningless, unless it is a true top master, the battle situation that can affect it is really not very large.
Sometimes the manpower is poor, and there is a melee. Sometimes you don’t even know how to die, you don’t know who killed you, and you don’t see where the attack came from. How to start a confrontation
The chief governor of Zhenxi and the Manichaeus Fangla urgently summoned many generals under his command. After discussing for a long time, they still felt a little powerless, and finally they could only come up with an attitude:
Fight to the death!
Fight for the honor that belongs to Yan Yun!
Unless you die, never retreat!
When you die, you die, you die well!
This posture is very domineering, but it is extremely tragic, even desolate.
After Wuhan University became king, the brothers have begun to enjoy the real good life. As a last resort, no one would want to just give up the good life and choose to die generously.
Ningbian Prefecture, the city closest to the original Xixia territory on Xijing Road, was the main city targeted by the Song and Tufan coalition forces.
Fang La, the governor of the west of Yanyun Town, sits here personally.
In addition, there are Zhang Ping, the general of the Wufu family, and Wu Zhe, the son of Yanyun.
Above the city, everyone looked at the black and oppressive enemy army in the distance outside the city, and everyone remained silent.
This silence is not fear, it is just Yan Yun's tradition.
In every battle, whether it is a cavalry battle or an infantry confrontation between the two armies, Yan Yun never raises morale. Their morale does not need to be improved. They just use this silence to adjust their mentality and adjust their physical state by the way. Also adjusted to the best, ready to fight the enemy desperately at any time.
Of course, even so, there are still many people who are slowly wiping the long knife in their hands.
After all, it is one thing not to be afraid of death, but another thing to mainly want to die. After all, the brothers are still so reluctant to give up the world, and are a little nervous, so they can only use a knife to ease their emotions.
Zhang Ping remained silent and said nothing.
Zhang Ping didn't know much about large-scale wars. His identity was very special. It would have been unnecessary for Fang La's command and dispatch to cause unnecessary trouble, so Zhang Ping remained silent.
But at this time, looking at the slowly approaching enemy, Zhang Ping suddenly turned his head and looked at his side. Xiao Wuzhe, who was extremely nervous and disturbed, asked:
"Afraid?"
Afraid? Following Zhang Ping’s question, everyone on the city, including Fang La, looked at Xiao Wu Zhe curiously. They wanted to see how Wu Zhe, the next King of Yanyun, would answer. this problem.
Xiao Wuzhe's expression was a little embarrassed. According to the algorithm of later generations, he was only eight years old. He was still too young. Facing the tension of the two armies confronting each other, it was bragging to say that he was not afraid.
He pressed his lips tightly, the little man, tightly grasping the double knives hanging on both sides of his waist, looked a little nondescript, even a little funny, and more... still looked a little pitiful.
Faced with Zhang Ping’s question, Xiao Wuzhe hesitated, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and straightened his body vigorously, clenched his small fist fiercely, with a trace of firmness across his face, with a slightly tender voice, extremely Said firmly:
"Not afraid!"
Everyone laughed silently, and they were very pleased with Xiao Wuzhe's reply.
Even Zhang Ping, who had always been extremely harsh on Xiao Wuzhe, had a slight expression on his face, showing a slight smile. He rubbed Xiao Wuzhe's head and said with a smile:
"You are still young, it doesn't matter if you are afraid, just get used to it in the future."
But Xiao Wuzhe shook his head and said firmly, "I'm really not afraid. I'm just a little nervous. My mother said that my father is a hero, and I am the eldest son of my father. Brothers and sisters set an example! And the second master said, I am the future master of Yanyun, and as the next king of Yanyun, I should establish a fearless and firm belief from an early age!"
Zhang Ping was stunned, apparently he didn't expect Xiao Wuzhe to speak in a different way at a young age.
In fact, in this year and month, the children of wealthy families are indeed very precocious. This is related to the education they have received since childhood. As the eldest son of Wuzhe, when Wuzhe was away, Zhang Ping and Ximenqing were responsible for his schoolwork. Wu, judging from the performance of Xiao Wuzhe today, the two of them have been very successful in teaching Xiao Wuzhe.
"Hahahaha..."
Fang La, as a hero of the world, was so bold and arrogant that he laughed loudly after hearing the words:
"Brothers, have you heard that? His Royal Highness is right. We, Yan Yun, have always been fearless. We are indifferent to life and death. We will do it if we refuse to accept it!"
"Life and death are bearish, just do it if you don't accept it!"
Soldier Yan Yun, morale is like a rainbow!
Outside the city, the Da Song and Tufan coalition forces have also begun to launch an offensive.
But at this moment, the sudden change occurred!
