Chapter 1100

The Xianbei army that appeared outside Chifeng City was a coalition army composed of two departments, namely, Maijia and que Ji in Eastern Xianbei. Chifeng was originally under the control of Suli, but after Gongsun Zan captured it, he drove all Suli's forces out of Chifeng. The northwest of Chifeng was the area controlled by Suli, while the Northeast was the direction controlled by Maijia. So this time, Micah and que Ji attacked Lulong County of gongsunzan, while sulibu attacked Yanbei County of Huangfu Chaobo.

At this time, the main forces outside Chifeng City were 70000 troops of Micah department and 45000 troops of Que Ji Department, together with dozens of vassal tribes gathered by the two departments, a total of 35000 troops, and the rear battalion personnel accompanying each department in the battle, with a total of 150000 soldiers and about 100000 rear battalion personnel.

Almost at the same time, a few miles to the north of Yixun Town, which was abandoned by Yanbei County, the 100000 troops of Suli department and his vassal department about 30000 troops, a total of 130000 troops, and more than 70000 rear battalion personnel, a total of about 200000 troops, appeared in the sight of the Tang garrison.

Further to the west, besides Shanggu and Daijun counties in Youzhou, there are 120000 troops of corbinen department, 40000 troops of vassal tribes, and personnel of Houying. The total number of troops is about 250000.

At the root of Budu, the soldiers and horses almost equal to those of corbinen appeared in Yanmen and Yunzhong counties of Bingzhou at the same time.

As for the northern foot of Yinshan Mountain to the north of Wuyuan, the 100000 troops and 60000 rear battalions assembled by Putou and its subordinate tribes also appeared there almost at the same time. As for the most western part, the 50000 troops of Qianman tribe and the 20000 troops of surrounding small tribes, as well as their 40000 rear battalions, they appeared outside gaoque Sai and Jilu Sai to the northwest of Shuofang.

In the following days, except for Yanbei County, other wars began one after another. The reason why the war in Yanbei county has not yet started is that it is still a hundred miles away from Ethan town to Longhua. Suli suffered a big loss in the hands of Huangfu Chaobo. This time, he began to fight steadily. Tens of thousands of troops escorted the cattle, sheep and grass of the barracks and pushed them slowly. It took him three days to get to the east of Longhua City, more than ten miles outside tangtougou town We've camped here.

At this time, Huangfu Chaobo had already arrived in Longhua from Chengde, accompanied by 5000 guards and 5000 cavalry of Huang yuxu. After these days of adjustment and arrangement, Yanbei county's defense and military situation has been basically in place.

Originally, there were only 15000 soldiers and 17000 guards in Yanbei County, and the total number of soldiers was only 30000. But after upgrading to the county, Huangfu Chaobo had already started to work in the garrison. Unexpectedly, there was a large-scale attack from Xianbei people. Therefore, the expansion of the army accelerated once again, although Huangfu Chaobo had ordered the 50000 troops and soldiers in Qingzhou The guards and Zhao yunbu's baimayi went north to support them, but it took more than ten days for any of them to get to Yanbei, so Huangfu Chaobo decided to recruit first.

The soldiers of the two battalions were assigned to Longhua and Chengde by Huangfu Chaobo. As for the cavalry, they must be in Longhua. In addition to the barracks, the Garrison has also made major adjustments. Longhua and Chengde, two cities that are likely to be attacked, each have a school infantry and thousands of cavalry. With the barracks infantry, there are more than 10000 infantry and thousands of cavalry in each city.

In other cities, Huangfu Chaobo only arranged 3000 soldiers and 1000 cavalry troops to garrison because it was not likely to be attacked by Xianbei people. If there were more troops, it was estimated that 50000 troops of Qingzhou had arrived in Youzhou by then, and the troops would be enough.

Although the troops supported by the Central Plains have not yet arrived, a group of generals have arrived in Yanbei. After discussing with Meng Yi and Ma Xuan, Huangfu Chaobo has arranged the deployment of several young generals with the former generals in Yanbei: zaoping is the magistrate of Longhua County, while dianman is the county captain; Zang Shun is the magistrate of Xiabancheng County, and Hao Jian, the former general, is the county captain; Dong Zhou is the county magistrate of shuangluancheng county Meng Yuan, the former guard general, served as the county magistrate; Huang Fuyi, the county magistrate of Luanping City, served as the county magistrate; Zang AI, the county magistrate; and Meng Yi and Ma Xuan, Chengde.

In this way, the personnel arrangement of the five cities in Yanbei was basically well arranged. As for the troops, after discussing with Guo Jia, Huangfu Chaobo decided not to increase too many troops first, so as to avoid the overstaffed troops in the later period, which would lead to too much pressure on Yanbei county. Of course, this decision was made after several people repeatedly confirmed that the current army and horses could support the arrival of two reinforcements to Qingzhou and Sizhou.

The battle of Xianbei army first started in Chifeng City in the East. On the morning of the 6th, the Maijia tribe, the que Ji tribe and their subordinate tribes began to attack Chifeng City. Today's Xianbei people have begun to learn how to attack the cities in the Central Plains since the Suli tribe broke their heads under Longhua and Lulong fortresses a few years ago, although they are far from being able to attack Shanshan War, but also far from the original.

Over the past few years, various ministries have gathered some Han craftsmen through various channels and forced them to make some simple siege equipment. In this way, siege is much more effective than before. Just like the Xianbei people who are attacking now, they use the shields and trench cars made by the Han people to drive away the Han slaves and attack the fortified city built by the Han people.Three days later, Suli led his army to attack tangtougou town outside Longhua city. Tangtougou town was originally just a town built by Huangfu Chaobo to give players rest and supplement materials. Tangtougou town is just a small town. Although it is only a small town, the town wall is built of stone, and it is more than two feet high. It is completely built according to the specifications of the city wall of the county town. There are not many residents in it, only a variety of workshops and shops. Since it was destroyed by Xianbei people's attack After that, Huangfu Chaobo ordered all the residents of tangtougou town to withdraw to Longhua city in tangtougou pass, and at the same time increased the number of troops in the town to 2000.

Huangfu Chaobo didn't want to hold tangtougou town for half a year, but just hoped that the town could hold Xianbei people for a period of time to buy time for the subsequent reinforcements to arrive. As long as the reinforcements arrived smoothly, the defenders in tangtougou town would be safe.

Tangtougou town is the first defense line of Longhua city. It only needs to be held here for ten days and a half months to sharpen the spirit of Xianbei people. When they really attack tangtougou pass, the defense of Tang army will be much easier. You know, tangtougou pass is the second and last defense line of Longhua city. Once tangtougou pass, Longhua city needs to face up to Xianbei The front of the inferior army has gone.
