Chapter 288: Reincarnation should be repaid
"Hurry, hurry!" Feng Yijun, on the road from Chengcheng County to Pujin Pass, Qu Tutong led 40,000 Tang troops to march rapidly.
Qu Tutong led the main force to help after seeing the beacon fire, although he didn't think that Pujin could not hold on for a few hours, but Qu Tutong has always been a cautious person, thinking about the worst in everything, so he brought 40,000 main forces. With sufficient troops in hand, even if Pujin Pass is really lost, it can cut off the pace of the Sui army's advance, and even beat the Sui army back to Hedong. When he set out, he sent Huyalang to lead Sang Xian to lead 8,000 Tang troops to the north to stop the Sui army in Yan'an County. The Sui army has invaded Pujin Pass, and Su Dingfang of Yan'an County will definitely not be indifferent.
Although Qu Tutong has confidence in Pujin Pass, its position is really important, which also makes him extremely anxious, because once Pujin Pass is lost, the Sui army will be able to gain a firm foothold here, and the 100,000 troops of Hedong County and Hanoi County will easily cross the Yellow River, and the entire Guanzhong will be exposed to the iron hooves of the Sui army.
Without the burden of grain and grass, the speed of the march of the 40,000-strong army was very fast, and it took half an hour to cover a distance of twenty miles.
Although Qu Tutong hated to fly to Pujin Pass, as a famous general who was good at defense, he still sent scouts.
These scouts think that Feng Yiguan is the heartland of the Tang Dynasty, and where is the enemy from when Pujin Pass is not lost? felt that Qu Tu passed carefully, but when the order was given, they also symbolically patrolled ahead, and the paralysis of the scouts, coupled with the darkness of the heavens and the earth, made the 40,000 army enter Yang Dong's ambush circle step by step.
Qu Tutong in the team, thinking back on the general trend of the world in the past few years, is like a dream.
At that time, he was the first general under Yang Yu left in Xijing, the Great Sui was crumbling with Li Tang's big move, the whole Chang'an people were panicked, Yang Yu urgently ordered him to Qu Tutong to sit in Hedong County, but due to the betrayal of Sang Xianhe, Yang Yu had high hopes for his own rapid defeat, Li Tang's career was in full swing, and there was a great tendency to sweep the north, and he could not see the slightest hope from the Great Sui, and he lowered the Li dynasty.
I thought that Li Tang would be the lord of the world, but Yang Tong, who never showed the dew, insisted on using his own strength to help the general Sui, and in just a few years, he was stunned to run the shrinking corner of the Great Sui into the first force in the world, arrogant and domineering, and invincible.
The cocoon of the new Sui in Jizhou, Youzhou, and Yongbei laid a solid foundation, more vitality than the old Sui, if the Sui dominates the world, there will be no collective interests to threaten the imperial power, and then will be like the Eastern Han Dynasty, blooming with a strange brilliance, and the Eastern Han Dynasty Liu Xiu is different, Yang Tong did not rely on any of the old forces, which also makes Yang Dong's Sui Dynasty cleaner, purer, more vitality, hundreds of years of life will be.
And the Tang Dynasty that he was optimistic about at the beginning was gloomy, no different from the old Sui, and this identity changed too quickly, which made people a little dizzying.
Looking at the soldiers marching quickly, Qu Tutong sighed secretly, since entering Guanzhong, the Tang Dynasty has not had a hearty victory, one after another failures have made the morale of Li Tang's army not always strong, and the Sui army's proud achievements outside the territory have been transmitted to Guanzhong, which makes the whole army regard the Sui army as a flood beast, and now, with the Sui army invading Pujin Pass, the whole army is very nervous and afraid.
How could such an army that was as fearful as a tiger face off against a tiger and wolf army like the Great Sui?
It is hoped that Pujin Pass is still in the hands of He Panren, as long as the Sui army does not cross the river, he still has room to play, but if Pujin Pass is lost and the Sui army successfully crosses the river, then the pass will fall into chaos as it was back then, and the situation is so chaotic that even the imperial court cannot clean it up.
The sky seemed to be darker, and from time to time, it was already dark before dawn, and Qu Tutong also felt a little tired, after all, he was sixty-three years old, and his physical strength and energy were not as good as they were back then. He wiped his face to make himself more sober.
At this moment, Qu Tutong suddenly heard a sense of uneasiness, walked less than two miles, there was a bang sound on both sides of the mountain road, and suddenly ten thousand arrows were fired together, dense arrows shot out from the mountains and forests on both sides, 40,000 Tang troops were caught off guard, and were shot on their backs, and the screams rang out.
Qu Tutong was so shocked that he drew his sword and shouted: "You can't retreat, rush forward, break out of the encirclement,"
However, how powerless was his voice in the midst of the screams in the sky?
A burst of rockets suddenly shot head-on, and the mountain road was instantly ignited, and the raging flames lit up the entire sky, and the Tang soldiers had nowhere to hide, and they were burned to the point of wailing and screaming............
Qu Tutong's eyes were red, he brandished his sword and fired arrows, the horse was as fast as flying, and he had rushed dozens of steps away in a moment, he wanted to take advantage of the opportunity when the enemy army was not completely blocked, and led the army to fight a bloody road.
Qu Tutong's forehead beads of sweat rolled down, this is not scorching, but nervous and anxious, the huge pressure made him feel like numb, the consequences of this rout are more serious than the defeat of Hedong, because of his rout in Hedong, Yang Yu still has Tongguan, and Pujin Pass, and tonight's fiasco, resulting in Chang'an no longer has any danger, since then the pass of Pingchuan has been exposed to the iron hooves of the Great Sui. Today is the fiasco that he has never suffered in more than 40 years in the army, and he has lost another war related to the national fortunes, before he defeated the national fortunes of the Sui Dynasty, but today he lost the national fortunes of Li Tang, who took away the national fortunes of the Sui Dynasty, what a coincidence? How ironic is this?
At this time, Qu Tutong did not expect to turn defeat into victory, he knew that his morale had been lost, and now he only hoped to save a part of the troops, Qu Tutong ran in the army, and shouted in a hoarse voice: "Don't mess up, you can survive if you stabilize your position!" ”
"Knock knock!"
In the midst of a war drum!
An elite cavalry of 10,000 people stabbed obliquely into the chaotic Tang army, accurately dividing the Tang army into two, and then, each with 5,000 cavalry killed at both ends, the speed and neatness of the division of troops are breathtaking.
This is a strong heavy cavalry, they are all dressed in red heavy armor, holding a one-color horse lance, like a killing army that came out of hell, with the momentum of Huanghuang killing, with the momentum of the world, to kill the Tang army.
The sound of killing on both sides shook the sky, and there were 20,000 ambushes with the same equipment, and the momentum was not weaker than the former, killing from the left and right, and everywhere they passed, the corpses of the Tang army were all around, the flesh and blood were flying, and the air was filled with red mist.
"Xiaoguo Army?"
Qu Tutong looked at this devilish killing army, and his round eyes were full of fear and surprise.
"Brave and resolute, open the world!"
As if in response to Qu Tutong's question, as the last drum of war fell, a thunderous roar bombarded Tang Jun's heart.
"Kill!"
In the shouting and killing of the mountains and tsunamis, the army of the Great Sui killed anyone who dared to stop in front of them with a devastating momentum, they were like a torrent of steel, like a killing tool without human emotion, one by one flickering with cold mangs and horses tearing the air, with a chilling and cold aura, ruthlessly harvesting the lives of the Tang army.
Qu Tutong finally gathered a group of soldiers, but before he could gain a firm foothold, he was crushed by the rout of his own army.
"Defeat is like a mountain"!
Seeing the soldiers and horses he brought running away under the indulgence of the Xiaoguo Army, Qu Tutong only had these five words left in his mind.
Although there were many soldiers and horses of the Tang army, they were caught off guard and were thrown into chaos among the powerful enemy troops, and everyone fought separately.
There was a cavalry that always kept an eye on Qu Tutong's banner, so that Qu Tutong was unable to command the army at all, but the Great Sui Xiaoguo army, under the leadership of Luo Shixin and Niu Jintong, cooperated with each other tacitly, divided the Tang army into small pieces, and then devoured it step by step.
Yang Tong saw that the Tang army had completely collapsed, and if it was forcibly intercepted, it would cause unnecessary casualties to his army, so he should take advantage of the cavalry engine and change the interception to pursuit, he gave an order: "According to the arrangement, let go of a passage!" ”
The war drums sounded again, this was the drumming of the wayway, and the generals of the Sui army at all levels ordered the soldiers to dodge the road.
The Tang army found a place for catharsis like a surging river, and they broke out of the established gap, and the Sui army covered all the way behind, killing corpses all over the place, and countless surrendered people.
Finished!
Qu Tutong closed his eyes in pain, and under the coercion of the rout, he fled involuntarily.
Pujin is closed! The 40,000 troops he brought with him are finished! After this battle, Feng Yijun no longer has a strong defensive force, and Feng Yi is finished...... Feng Yi is finished, how long can Guanzhong hold on?
Qu Tutong can only retreat now, only by retreating to the nearest Fengyi County, can he continue to deal with the Sui army, but with these remnants of the defeated generals, even if he retreats to Fengyi County, how long can he maneuver? Qu Tutong didn't know, and he didn't dare to think about it.
Apologize for your sins?
When this thought flashed in Qu Tutong's heart, he quickly shook his head, he was not afraid of death, but he couldn't die and didn't dare to die. Because he died, Feng Yijun would completely become the world of the Sui Dynasty, and he had to defend a city as a wedge to slow down the advance of the Sui army and buy time for Chang'an.
After a long escape!
With his personal prestige, Qu Tutong successively gathered the three armies to defeat them.
At this time, a partial general said loudly with a deep sense of joy: "General, the Sui army is not chasing!" ”
"Didn't chase?" This was a good thing, but when I heard it in Qu Tutong's ears, it was like a thunderclap.
The Sui army that ambushed him before was all cavalry, and Qu Tutong didn't think that the Sui army, which was all cavalry, couldn't even chase the infantry-based rout.
"Quick! Don't rest, let's go! Qu Tutong hurriedly turned on his horse and shouted at a group of soldiers who were resting on the ground: "If you don't get up and run, don't blame me if you die!" ”
Almost at the same time, in the otherwise quiet darkness, an earth-shattering cry sounded, and the whole earth trembled,
Followed by bright torches, countless torches lit up the entire world, a huge rain of arrows, carrying a power that seemed to destroy everything, like a torrent of steel, fiercely killing the chaotic Tang army.
Countless people were hunted, countless war horses screamed, countless Tang troops roared in despair, the cold arrow array was swept away, and the red blood stained the earth.
After a rain of arrows, the Sui army shouted in unison: "Those who drop their weapons and surrender will not be killed"
The Tang army threw down their weapons and fled from Qu Tutong one after another.
It was only a moment, and there were only a few personal soldiers left around Qu Tutong. At this time, a group of cavalry rushed out, and a burst of spears and bayonets slashed, and all the soldiers were annihilated in a scream.
At this time, a general walked towards Qu Tutong under the escort of ten elite soldiers.
Qu Tutong stared at the comer, his heart full of sadness and despair.
The cycle of heaven and retribution were unpleasant, and he was finally defeated at the hands of the Great Sui army he betrayed, and this general who walked towards him in the posture of a victor was Yao Junsu, who was always loyal to the Great Sui even in a desperate situation.
As Yao Junsu approached, Qu Tutong suddenly arrived at the scene when he went to Yuxiang County to persuade Yao Junsu to surrender after surrendering Li Yuan.
At that time, he stood under the city full of sadness and shame, and persuaded Yao Junsu to surrender early to seek wealth.
But Yao Junsu stood at the head of the city and said to him coldly: "You will not be ashamed of the saint who is far away in the river, but the horse you ride, the armor on your body, the horse lance in your hand and the dragon sparrow horse in your hand are all given to you by the king, what kind of face do you have to ride this war horse, wear this armor, and use this weapon?" ”
"Jun Su, I also surrendered with all my strength! The Great Sui is no longer saved, why do you bother to bring disaster upon yourself? ”
"Humph! Eat the king's lu, be loyal to the king, the manly man has something to do, and he tries his best to be poor, and he should be martyred, not a lackey of the enemy. One day you will be punished, and justice will be done in the heavens! ”
……
Recalling that conversation, Qu Tutong shouted miserably: "Jun Su, kill me!" ”
Yao Junsu looked at Qu Tutong's pair of tiger eyes full of murderous intent, forcibly suppressed the murderous intent in his heart, and said in a cold voice: "I really want to kill you with one sword, but unfortunately I don't have this power!" You better wait for His Highness's judgment. ”
"Take him to the east of the river." After this battle, Yao Junsu will go back to Hedong County, and now he can personally capture this traitor who is ungrateful, greedy for life and afraid of death, and he has no regrets.
"Whoa!"
The Sui army rushed up.
Qu Tutong closed his eyes in pain, and tears of humiliation and shame flowed from his eyes.
