Chapter 46: Raising the Flag
After Yu Anmin retreated to Fengcheng, he began to defend the city pass, and he no longer dared to rashly march.
A few days later, Yuyang side.
At this time, Xiao Yuan led 4,000 elite soldiers to attack overnight, and he was less than fifty miles away from here.
At this time, the Son of Heaven had also begun to retreat in the direction of Yuyang.
This is a dense forest, Xiao Yuan is resting in place with his soldiers, and Ye Cheng has already sent a scout horse to inquire about the news in front.
After a while, Tanma returned, saluted in front of Xiao Yuan and said, "General, there is a war ahead. ”
"Oh?" Xiao Yuan was a little surprised, and immediately asked, "Where is it?" How's that going? ”
"Blackstone Valley, an army is fighting a decisive battle with the rebels, but the strength of both sides cannot be known." The spies returned.
"Get the map." Xiao Yuan shouted directly, and after the sergeant handed over the map, he unfolded it and looked at it carefully, and then pointed to a place and said, "Here." ”
Beside him, there were Peng Shuang, Liu Yuzhi and others, after hearing this, Liu Yuzhi began to mutter:
"Unexpectedly, another army, like the general, went straight to Yuyang, according to this, it must be the thief leader Wu Yuan in order to prevent the Son of Heaven from escaping south, sent a thief army, trying to make a detour to intercept it, but unexpectedly ran into this army."
"At the moment, that's the only explanation." Xiao Yuan nodded, then looked at the spy and said, "Can you find out which army the other party is?" ”
"This ......" the spy thought back for a moment and said: "Look at the banner of this army, it should be the Yangzhou Army, and the handsome flag is embroidered with the word bell." ”
"Yangzhou...... Zhong Zi ......" Xiao Yuan first squinted, and then suddenly opened: "Zhong Bai!" ”
It is not only Yangzhou to raise troops, but also the handsome flag and the bell word, so who else can it be!
But everyone didn't know Zhong Bai, and when Liu Yuzhi saw this, he also subconsciously asked: "The general plans to support?" ”
"That's right." Xiao Yuan said quietly: "If our army does not support and the Yangzhou army is defeated, the retreat of the Son of Heaven to the south will be blocked by the rebels, so we must first work with Zhong Bai's department to defeat this rebel army." ”
As he spoke, he immediately said to the spy: "Probe again, report again!" We must get close to find out the situation on the battlefield, so that our army can choose the opportunity to use its troops. ”
"Order!" The scout clenched his fists and left.
Blackstone Valley.
This army that fought a decisive battle with the rebels was indeed Zhong Bai's department, and at the moment, his situation was not very good, because of the terrain, he had been surrounded by the rebels.
This battle had already happened before Xiao Yuan came, and at this point, Zhong Bai's troops had retracted and had been driven to a Jedi.
He was already covered in blood, and he was resting on the ground with his sword.
"Childe." Liang Yuan walked over, his eyes were a little worried, and he couldn't help but say: "Our army was ambushed, and due to the terrain, it has been killed several times, and now, the troops have been seriously damaged, and more than half of the soldiers have been killed or wounded, I am afraid that ...... I'm afraid ......"
Speaking of this, he didn't dare to say any more, Zhong Bai glanced at him and said coldly: "No matter what, you must break through!" The rebels rely on the terrain, as long as they reach the open area, their combat power is not as good as our army! ”
"But." Liang Yuan paused for a moment, then changed his words and said: "Childe, in the opinion of the last general, I will lead an elite team to raid one place, and then order the whole army to respond and escort Childe out!" ”
What he said can indeed be done, but when Zhong Bai heard this, he sneered: "Do you mean to say that I will flee with the lives of the whole army?" ”
"This ......" Liang Yuan didn't know how to answer, he immediately said: "Childe has great ambitions, as long as he can go out and return to Yangzhou, he will definitely be able to make a comeback!" What if we die on the battlefield? ”
"No!" Zhong Bai directly stopped him: "These soldiers were all raised by me from Yangzhou and followed all the way, and it was my fault that I failed to lead them to make meritorious contributions, how could I abandon them at this time!" ”
"This battle must be fought!" As he spoke, he also stood up suddenly, then looked around, and asked coldly, "Do the generals dare to fight again!?" ”
When everyone heard this, their bodies were shocked, and they all said: "Sword Mountain and Sea of Fire, I am willing to follow the son!" ”
"Kill! Fight with them-" Zhong Bai shouted, and then launched the whole army to charge again, and started a bloody battle with the besieging rebels.
There is no doubt about his military spirit here, and the generals under him are all the only ones who look at him, so this vicious battle is extremely bloody!
On the battlefield, Zhong Bai hosta tied his hair, a fine satin brocade robe, stained with blood, and his handsome face was the same, he held a sword in one hand, and kept slashing the enemy.
But even so, due to the terrain, he was never able to break through, and soon, the whole army fell into a bitter battle.
The place where the two sides clashed had already been filled with blood, piles of corpses, carved feathers slanted everywhere, and cold weapons scattered everywhere.
The bloody battle was still going on, and the terrible howls of one after another did not stop, and after an hour of the battle, when Zhong Bai led the army to fight hard, the right side of the rebel army suddenly changed.
This is not a small movement, but a large-scale riot.
On the battlefield, as long as you pay a little attention, you can see it, there is no doubt that after discovering it, Liang Yuan immediately rushed to Zhong Bai's side and reported to him: "Childe, there is a change on the right side of the enemy's army, and we seem to have reinforcements!" ”
"What!?" At this moment, Zhong Bai was taking the lead in rushing in front, and his attention was all here, and after hearing this, he said a little incredulously: "Reinforcements? We, where are we coming for reinforcements? ”
"This ...... The last general didn't know, but the right side of the enemy army really looked like it was being attacked from outside. Liang Yuan replied.
"Good! Whoever he is! Let's kill it first! Zhong Bai is not an indecisive person, such an opportunity, how could he miss it, and immediately ordered to start breaking through to the right.
With his order, the Yangzhou army turned its spearhead and pointed directly at the right side of the rebels, and began to cooperate with the reinforcements.
After grasping the general situation of the battlefield, he immediately made a decision, led 4,000 elite soldiers, and decided to march from the right side and tear apart the defense line surrounded by the rebels.
He hit from the outside in, like a sharp knife, while Zhong Bai hit from the inside out, so that the rebels on the right side were hit by the enemy in the back and abdomen, and under the front and back attacks, it was even more chaotic.
Originally, the rebels were facing Zhong Bai's side, but the people behind were killed by Xiao Yuan in a big mess, and they began to retreat in a row, so that they pushed back and forth, and some people tripped and fell to the ground in the chaos.
At this time, Xiao Yuan was also on the war horse, raising his sword and shouting: "Bright flag!" ”
