Chapter 291: Unwilling to be a rebel

As the afternoon passed, the battlefield was again filled with the sound of gold and iron clashing, and the besieging army withdrew like a tidal wave, and the retreating besiegers seemed to be accustomed to the situation, bandaging their wounds, cleaning their weapons, and even joking as if nothing had happened.

It was an army that was the best in both spirit and combat, with dust in the distance, mottled walls, and traces of the aftermath of the great war. The two big characters engraved on the lintel of the city gate are impressive, "Tongzhou"!

Tongzhou is the county governance of Feng Yi County, after the year of Tianbao, the Son of Heaven issued an edict to change the state to the county, and change the history of the state to the county Taishou. Therefore, in the official documents of the imperial court, the word Tongzhou has disappeared for nearly ten years, but the place name of Tongzhou has a history of hundreds of years here, and the people who have lived nearby for generations are still attached to the old name, and even the old inscription on the city gate has not been changed, and it is still the same state.

The siege army was the Huangfu Ke who launched a rebellion in Pujin, and the Huangfu Ke led tens of thousands of troops to almost besiege the city of Tongzhou, and the defenders in the city initially tried to fight with it, but after two heavy defeats, they completely gave up the plan to go out, and could only hold on and wait for reinforcements.

In fact, the garrison of Tongzhou City was already empty, because this place was Gyeonggi Sanfu, close to Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Empire, and was blessed by the Chang'an garrison, and Pyongsuri did not need a garrison at all. At this time, the county Taishou was only able to use the unity soldiers advocated by the local government.

The scale of the unity army in various places was not large in the last year, but after the Qin and Jin Dynasty started with the unity army, they defeated Sun Xiaozhe and Cui Qianyou successively, which made the Son of Heaven and the imperial court pay more and more attention to the unity army. In the case of the shortage of regular troops in the imperial court, the formation of united troops in various places was ordered in order to have the ability to counterattack at a critical moment.

It was also through the light of the formation and training of the united soldiers that under the sudden attack of Huangfu Ke, the county magistrate of Feng Yi County relied on the united soldiers in the city to deal with him for ten days.

The defenders in the city are somehow, and the rebels of Huangfu Ke are obviously superior in strength, but they seem to be a little powerless against Tongzhou City.

"General Huangfu, there is movement in Beiluoshui!"

"How's the battle going?"

Huangfu Ke was born after the Jiangmen, and unlike those rough people in the army who fought to the death with coolies, he received a good education since he was a child, and he was nurtured by his father, so he allowed Wen Yunwu. He put down the scroll in his hand and slowly raised his head, a burning gaze bursting out of his blazing eyes.

"Captain Zhou has already fought with the Shenwu Army, is it time for us to make the next plan?"

"Let's go, come with me and watch the battle!"

The right bank of Beiluoshui, which was ambushed by Zhou Kuo, was only five miles away from the location of Huangfu Ke's Chinese army, but there was a high saka on the left bank of Beiluoshui that just blocked the sight of the right bank of Beiluoshui, so even if you were on the left bank of Beiluoshui, it was difficult to find the army north of Takasaka.

Huangfu Ke only took more than ten guards to ride up to Gaosaka, and looked into the distance, only to see that the right bank of Beiluoshui was really caught in a big war. But soon, his brows tightened, because the trend of the battle situation was obvious, and Zhou Kuo's troops fell into a great disadvantage.

Although the battlefield was dusty, Huang Fu Ke, who had rich combat experience, still judged the approximate number of people, which would definitely not exceed five thousand.

Judging by this number alone, it was not reinforcements who fought with Zhou Kuo.

"General, give the order to attack, if it's a little later, Zhou Kuo may not be able to withstand it!"

A sneer erupted from Huang Fu Ke's face.

"Zhou Kuo is to blame, and it is already a great gift to let him die in battle. The army said that the reinforcements sent by the imperial court were the Shenwu Army, one of the three armies of the Northern Ya, and the main general of the Shenwu Army, Qin Jin, was prestigious. ”

Huang Fu Ke said it lightly, but in fact the situation was much more serious for him. They are fighting alone in Feng Yi, with no food and grass, no reinforcements, if they can't completely annihilate the main force of the Shenwu Army, the consequences will be unimaginable. Therefore, he "repeatedly attacked Tongzhou City", in order to wait for the main force of Qin and Jin to come in a hurry, and then Zhou Kuo used 5,000 dead soldiers as bait to lure them halfway through, and the army would make another full attack.

But the development of events is often beyond expectations, first a team of about 1,000 Hu dog cavalry almost broke up the Zhou Qiang Division, but the other party failed to attack rashly, and then a non-main force of men and horses came over, Zhou Qiang is also not angry, and is extremely passive in front of the ** that is almost equal to or even less than the number of them, and there is even a danger of breaking up again.

After thinking about it for a while, Huang Fu Ke still decided not to attack for the time being, because once the ambush plan was exposed, he could only fight head-on, which was a result he did not want to see.

Even if Zhou Kuo was unfortunately defeated and fled, the adverse impact only stopped there, under this ** crushing victory, he would never dare to cross the river easily to pursue before the arrival of the main force, so as to give Zhou Kuo the opportunity to regather and counterattack.

All in all, not to startle the snake is the first priority of Huang Fu Ke, and even Zhou Kuo's defeat will bring unexpected results, so that ** will give birth to the heart of the enemy.

However, the assistant general beside Huang Fu Ke didn't understand the mind of the main general, and urged Huang Fu Ke to quickly send troops to attack.

"Look, Zhou Kuo is not so easy to defeat!"

Huangfu Song had repeatedly deduced beforehand, Chang'an's army was not much, and he had just experienced a military rebellion, and it was already the limit to be able to send a Shenwu army, as long as he defeated the Shenwu army that came to reinforce, it would win them at least more than three months of time to deal with it, and there were too many variables in three months, and evil could make him calmly plan and find a way out.

And as far as Huangfu Song knew, Yang Guozhong had the possibility of taking power again, as long as it was not Gao Xianzhi or Ge Shuhan who was in charge of the political affairs hall, he had nothing to fear. Yang Guozhong is just a fool who grabs the crony and makes an ugly appearance, and he is also his enemy.

"General, general, report urgently!"

The voice of the guard came from Takasaka in a panic, which gave Huang Fu Ke a sense of foreboding, he could judge the quality of the message from the voices and emotions of his subordinates, and this time it was obviously not good news. But if the bad news comes from Chaoyi, is it ......

Thinking of this, Huang Fu Ke's body suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

The premonition really came true, ** attacked Chaoyi in a big way, if you send reinforcements one step later, Chaoyi will be lost!

After learning the content of the battle report of Chaoyi, Huangfu Ke was furious, originally he was hunting, and he didn't want to be attacked by the prey, and the people and horses besieging Chaoyi were around 10,000, which was exactly consistent with the information he had discovered before. In other words, the main force of the Shenwu Army has bypassed Beiluoshui and sneaked up on its own back road to the city.

Huangfu Ke wandered under the city of Tongzhou for so many days, not for the food in the city at all, and his goal was to annihilate the ** who came to help.

At this point, Huangfu Ke immediately ordered that all the troops should return to help and go to Chaoyi to fight a decisive battle with the main force of the Shenwu Army. Since the strategy of sneak attack could no longer be realized, he did not hesitate at all, and resolutely decided to fight head-on with the Shenwu Army.

The main force under the command of Huangfu Ke is about 30,000 people, and he still has considerable confidence in dealing with the Shenwu army with far fewer men and horses than his own, although the possible casualties are more than expected, but he can only fight to the death to fight a bloody way.

The army besieging Tongzhou City was withdrawn in less than an hour, and even the camp was not even pulled up and taken away.

……

Zhou Kuo fell into despair, his self-confidence had been completely shattered, and the footmen under his command were actually rapidly consumed at a ratio of ten to one. It won't be long before 5,000 men are about to be slaughtered, and their will to fight is on the verge of collapse. Even if these people's will is stronger than iron, they are flesh and blood......

"Feng Yijun is too guarded by Qin's envoy here, wait for the rebellion to listen, as long as you lay down your arms and stop resisting, your treason can be written off, otherwise even if you chase to the ends of the earth, you will be punished!"

At the beginning of hearing this, Zhou Kuo didn't believe it, he didn't believe that Qin Jin would only take a partial division of about 3,000 people to risk a battle with him, this was just a heart-to-heart battle.

If Qin Jin was really among this army, with the wisdom and insight of General Huangfu, the army would have rushed from under the high saka, how could they let them struggle to support on the right bank of Beiluoshui?

"Everyone is the same **, why do you have to fry each other so much?" ** was still shouting in a high voice and a low voice.

"It's useless to talk too much, if you have the ability, you will kill us cleanly, and it is delusional to say that you surrender!"

Zhou Kuang responded hoarsely to the other party's persuasion, but no matter what, in this back and forth, the already low morale was even lowered.

Immediately after that, a puff of arrows fell sharply, like a warning to their stubborn resistance, and immediately there was a rain of flesh and blood......

Suddenly, a soldier crawled to Zhou Kuo's side and cried:

"Captain, General Huangfu withdrew with the army and went to Chaoyi, we, we were abandoned......"

The words of the armor soldier were like a thunderbolt from the sky to Zhou Kuo, but he laughed loudly and burst into tears, and everyone near him was shocked and desperate.

Huangfu Ke left without a fight, indicating that the main force of the Shenwu Army had been discovered, so it would be meaningless for them to fight to the death with the ** partial division here.

No matter how amazing the combat effectiveness of the three thousand ** is, what kind of storm can it set off in front of Huang Fu Ke's 30,000 army?

After laughing, Zhou Kuo sharply ordered: "Surrender!"

He doesn't want his brothers to do senseless casualties with him, after all, it is better to be ** again than to die with a rebellious hat on his head. If time could be turned back, if there was a choice, who would want to be a rebel?
