Chapter 501 Reversal (1)
Don't look at what Zhang Lun said impassionedly, the generals have no objections, but tonight's battle will have too much suffering for their army. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
When the warning horn sounded in Dongcheng, Zhang Lun's department was actually more panicked than the other two armies, and if it was Zhang Lun's department that was attacked first, it would definitely be defeated in a battle, and it was almost impossible to have a second result.
Of course, this is not that Zhang Lun's department is weaker, on the contrary, the army led by Zhang Lun can be regarded as a very good fighting part in the army.
They have experienced more battles than any other ministry.
The main reason for the poor performance now is that they have surrendered to the army, and they have not been completely integrated into the army, and the surrender army always has various shortcomings, which is needless to say.
In particular, their will to fight is very weak, because they lack a sense of belonging.
Like tonight, when things started suddenly, even with Zhang Lun in charge, the panic of the soldiers was varied.
There were even a few henchmen who only restrained their subordinates slightly, and then ran to Zhang Lun in disheveled clothes, persuading him to abandon the city and flee.
Zhang Lun was immediately furious, and according to his previous temperament, he might have to kill his henchmen to deter the army.
But he finally endured it, nothing else, after staying in the army for more than half a year, and knowing some military discipline and some rumors, the matter of killing generals in the army has almost become Zhang Lun's taboo.
Needless to say, Zhang Lun saw that his subordinates were in a panic, and while strictly ordering all the departments to restrain the army, he had to gather his subordinates.
And with such a delay, it is really needless to say that Zhang Lun has undergone psychological torture.
After hurriedly gathering the generals, Zhang Lun immediately made it clear to everyone that he surrendered to the enemy before the battle that day, causing Jiexiu to lose his position, not to mention how to rebel again today, but only to say that if he abandoned the city and left, and lost Longmen City, he would be severely punished by military law after returning.
Zhang Lun even said to the generals, it must be the Tang Army who stole into the city, and there is no doubt that he will serve Li Yuan that day, and it is needless to say what he looks like in a few years, and then it will be repeated, and if it falls into the hands of the Tang Army, everyone will definitely die, so today's battle, there is just death, if there are still people who are lucky, I will let them come and go here, and when the head hits the ground, don't blame him Zhang Lun for not reminding everyone.
Everyone was silent, Zhang Lun sneered and drove them all to lead the troops like a flock of sheep.
Then Zhang Lun painfully found that the north side had become a pot of porridge, the direction of the granary was on fire, and the red fire in the east must be where the stables were.
And the enemy troops who entered the city did not come to the southern city......
It's obvious why......
If he goes to the rescue of the other two, in the darkness of the night...... Xun Xiang and Chen Li may regard him as an enemy, and under the chaos, it must be Tang Jun who will take advantage.
With such a strategy, Zhang Lun could only scold a few times in his heart, he was not a son of man.
Because if Longmen City is lost in this battle, he Zhang Lun will definitely not be able to take off the hat of a traitor, and the sinister and vicious intentions of the enemy generals make Zhang Lun shudder.
In fact, in the final analysis, he himself didn't have the mind to repeat it at all, he was a cheap son of Yanmen, and he couldn't find a suitable position in the Tang Army at all, and he met cold eyes everywhere, which was far less comfortable than staying in the army.
And he, Zhang Lun, is not as cowardly as people think......
The enemy did not come to attack, although the intentions were sinister, but it also gave him time to reorganize the army.
When the soldiers were ready, Zhang Lun immediately ordered the archers to go up to the city wall, and the other departments leaned on the edge of the city wall.
Li Shimin misestimated Zhang Lun, but Zhang Lun did not live up to himself.
When he settled down, he immediately sent people out of Nancheng, in addition to asking for help from Jiangjun, he was also checking whether there was an enemy army around Longmen City.
After these were done, Zhang Lun was left to lead the army and wait for the dawn.
In fact, Zhang Lun soon knew that the enemy troops entering the city might be all of them, or the army was driving forward, but they were walking faster, and they were at a certain distance from the army behind.
Zhang Lun preferred the former, because in such weather, it was almost impossible for the Tang army to cross the Yellow River in a big way.
In this way, Zhang Lun was at ease, and even felt that he could touch the edge of his exploits.
…………………………
On the battlefield, what kind of people are the most terrifying?
In the Battle of Longmen City, Zhang Lun told everyone that the person who could grasp the fighter plane was the most terrifying.
Zhang Lun waited patiently until dawn in the torment, and didn't care how many enemy troops entered the city, let alone how miserable the friendly troops were, he just clutched the opportunity to send it to his hands.
The sky was dark, and Chen Li led more than 100 soldiers to protect Xun Xiang, who was already seriously injured and unconscious, and fought and left, and had already arrived at the gate of Dongcheng.
At this time, most of these more than 100 people were exhausted, fighting for half a night, constantly being attacked and chased by the cavalry, as if there were enemies everywhere, the sound of horses' hooves everywhere, constantly fighting, comrades constantly falling, scars and cold are gradually eroding their will, and the shadow of defeat has enveloped everyone's hearts.
Exhausted, they retreated here, and there was no way back.
No one thought of opening the gates and escaping out of the city, and in such weather, the enemy was all cavalry, and it would be death to escape.
Bands of cavalry rode out of the gaps in the barracks, and gradually gathered, and the sound of persuasion to surrender echoed in the ears of these remnants, and the sound of fighting in various parts of the city gradually became thin, but it was not stopped.
Chen Li raised the steel knife with difficulty, and his hoarse voice was as ugly as a broken gong.
"There are only heroes who died in battle, and there are no thieves who beg for life, hoho ......"
The voice like a wolf's howl echoed in the cold wind again, and the soldiers under his command clenched their steel knives one after another, puffed up their chests, and subconsciously howled with their last strength.
In these two wars, the cohesion shown by the soldiers of the same generation has been very different from the soldiers and horses under the command of the heroes in the troubled times, and the word loyalty is finally not an empty word in adversity.
Strict military discipline, good supplies, very good pensions, as well as a series of baptisms of war, and victories one after another, finally cast such a soul.
They no longer want to bow down to the enemy, they no longer want to show any cowardice, so to speak, they have a greater sense of belonging than most of the military in this world.
The tragic long howl has not yet dissipated, not far away, the echoing sound has been loud, like the echo of the valley stirring back, has been ready to launch the final attack, the end of the battle of the Tang army cavalry, suddenly startled, have pulled the war horses......
Zhang Lun finally led his troops to arrive.
The soldiers were flying on the city walls, and before they could get close, some of them drew their bows and arrows and shot arrows.
Chen Li stared at a pair of bloodshot eyes, the corners of his mouth were grinning, and he sat down on the ground, but cursed in his mouth, "Fuck Zhang Lun......"
When Zhai Changsun arrived, the city wall was already full of enemy archers, and at the base of the city wall, rows of soldiers hugged shields, stretched out spears, and lined up like hedgehogs.
Zhai Changsun just wanted to scold at this time, Murong Luohu, this bastard thing, didn't he say that Zhang Lun didn't move at all? How did you end up here?
The city isn't that big, but it has the same effect as a raid.
Zhai Changsun hesitated for a long time, looked left and right, his subordinates' faces were pale, their hands and feet trembled as if they were sick, and they marched and fought for a day and two nights, and the Xuanjia army at this time was already at the end of the crossbow.
Zhai Changsun knew that as long as he gave an order, these soldiers would definitely rush forward bravely and tear the enemy to pieces, because this was the most elite cavalry brigade he had ever seen, and there was no one.
But would he give such an order? Definitely not, this is not any other army, this is the Xuanjia Army, the hardest and strongest pillar in the army of King Qin.
It is also a loss for a Xuanjia army soldier to exchange ten enemies, let alone the current situation......
"Go, report to His Royal Highness the King of Qin, Zhang Lun has led his troops to the west of the city, and he can't pull it lightly, and ask His Royal Highness to show ......" Zhai Changsun finally chose to ask Li Shimin.
The cavalry slowly retreated, out of the range of the bow and arrows in the midst of your back-and-forth fire.
At this time, Chen Li was helped and came to Zhang Lun.
"If General Zhang is one step late, our lives will all be left here, and I thank General Zhang for saving his life."
How could Zhang Lun not hear the ridicule in these words?
He grabbed Chen Li's arm and said sincerely: "It's not that I'm late, but ...... I am afraid that the two generals will be suspicious, so they can only wait for the dawn to lead the army to come, but fortunately it is not too late, otherwise, Zhang Mou will definitely have a bad life. ”
At this time, what else can Chen Li say? Even if you blame this person for being cunning and not saving him when he sees death, it is difficult to tell the difference at this time.
He pointed at the cavalry in the distance in a hoarse voice and said, "Hehe, these rabbit cubs don't have much strength left, can General Zhang dare to lead people up with me to kill him?" ”
How could Zhang Lun accompany him who killed him with red eyes to make a foolish fuss, and immediately persuaded, "General, don't worry, I see that these dog thieves still have some strength left, it's better to slow down, and then freeze them for a while, it will be easier to kill, and the general will also eat something, rest for a while, and then Zhang Mou will accompany the general to kill them without leaving a piece of armor." ”
Zhai Changsun and Murong Luohu's report came to Li Shimin almost at the same time, Li Shimin was immediately taken aback, what he was most afraid of in a long-distance attack was this kind of accident, so far, the plan to take Longmen City and repair it again was completely broken.
Zhang Lun's troops recuperated, and took advantage of the darkness to suddenly appear in the west of the city, so that Longmen City could fight, and there was a reversal immediately.
