Chapter 336, Unprecedented Decisive Battle 3
As soon as Li Dang raised his head, the flag officer's knife had already fallen, and Li Dang sealed the opponent's knife with a horizontal knife, and then shouted, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, the big knife slanted its shoulder strap and slashed down. γLatest chapter reading. The flag officer did not show weakness, and sealed it with a knife shaft, only to hear a loud earthquake, and the flag officer's knife shaft was cut in two by Li Kang, and Li Kang's big knife was also cut down.
The flag officer was stunned for a moment, and Li Kang's knife did not stop, and it was chopped on the root of the flag officer's neck. The flag officer screamed, threw the knife, and grabbed Li Kang's knife head, Li Kang's wrist flipped, the big knife came out, and the head of the flag officer flew out.
Killed this person, there was no one to guard in front of the handsome flag, Li dared to use all his strength, Kaka stabbed twice, and cut off the thigh-thick flagpole. The flag creaked and fell.
As soon as the handsome flag fell, the officers and soldiers were devastated, and they couldn't resist the fierce rush of the Qin army's iron cavalry, and the entire East Gate camp began to be chaotic.
When Bai Qi, Li Yan and others rushed in with another 3,000 cavalry, the officers and troops were no longer in formation.
Li Dare to kill, watching Xiong Wencan flee to the south gate from a distance, and wanted to chase and kill the past, the people around him reminded him: "General Li, don't forget the ...... that the general ordered us" Li Dang saved it, he stomped his foot in the kick, and scolded hatefully: "Cheap you for a while, wait for grandpa to kill back, and then take your dog's life." β
After finishing speaking, he led his men and cavalry to kill at the gate of the official barracks.
At this time, the official army lost its command, and the entire camp was in chaos, unable to form an effective resistance, so Li Dang led more than 200 cavalry, and soon rushed out of the official army camp and went straight to the city of Xi'an.
This toss in the official barracks, Xi'an City has long seen it, it is Zhang Yi who defended at the east gate, he replaced Li Kang, soon after nightfall, the first thing I heard was faintly shouting and killing outside the west gate, and there was also a firelight rising, Zhang Yi immediately ordered someone to investigate, and soon someone reported, saying that someone on the west gate attacked the official army camp, it seemed that it was a sneak attack from the outside, and it may be General Bai Qi's men.
Zhang Yi at first thought that it was still a white suspicious soldier, used to harass the officers and soldiers, and did not care too much, just after a while, he heard that the official army camp not far from the east gate was also in chaos, he went to the city to look, only to see the whole camp in a mess, the fire soared, under the reflection of the firelight, countless people and horses were rampage inside, looking at such a formation, the people and horses who came to steal the camp should not be less than four or five thousand people.
Looking at the slaughtered men and horses in the distance, Zhang Yi faintly felt that something big might happen tonight, so he immediately sent someone to report to King Qin.
After the king of Qin received the report, he immediately dressed neatly, accompanied by everyone, and came to the east gate in person, he went to the city and looked into the distance, his face was as calm as water, and he did not say a word.
Ziyi said: "King, could this be a trick by the officials and the military to lure us out of the city?" β
Wang Jian shook his head lightly: "Looking at such a formation, it should really be a stealing camp." It's not like it's fake. β
Ziyi said: "We are far away, how can we see clearly?" Your Majesty, why don't I take a detachment of men and horses out of the city to have a look. β
The king of Qin did not answer, but ordered: "Order the cavalry in the city, ready to go, assemble in the urn city, and be ready to attack at any time." β
Shehuai got the order and went down to prepare.
Zhang Yi said: "I think this must be a decisive battle with the official army, a few days ago it rained a lot, and the official army could not attack the city, so they had to rest." At this time, the rainy season has passed, and the official army is about to start attacking the city, and General Bai Qi chose to attack at this time, which is a vacancy. β
Wang Jian said: "Xi'an has been besieged for several months, General Bai Qi must be anxious, and it is possible to come to a decisive battle with the official army. β
As he was talking, suddenly everyone saw a cavalry in the official camp, like an iron dragon, rushing through the enemy formation and coming down to the city.
It was closer, and everyone saw it clearly, this group of people was dressed as a Qin army, and the leader looked a little familiar, and when it got closer, Zhang Yi suddenly shouted: "That's Li Kang, it's General Li Kang." β
Sure enough, everyone also saw clearly that the person who came was Li Kang.
There was a cheer on the head of the city, Li Dang went to the city, and shouted to the city: "Listen to the Qin army, I am Li Kang, come to pass the order of General Bai Qi, please restore the king of Qin, General Bai Qi and Li Yangongzi's army has arrived, and they are fighting a decisive battle with the official army, please send reinforcements from the city quickly, go out of the city to attack, and defeat the official army in one go." β
The king of Qin listened to the city, his face was still impassive, and he said: "General Li Kang, the men and horses have been prepared, and we will go out of the city." β
When Li Dare heard it, it was the voice of the King of Qin, hurriedly rolled the saddle and dismounted, and knelt on the ground: "King, the ministers are too late to relieve the siege, and please forgive me." More than 200 people behind him dismounted and bowed to the ground.
The king of Qin told them to be flat: "Retreat the enemy army first, and then salute the ministers." Li dared to say: "Obey." He and his men flew on their horses, and at this time the Qin army in the city opened the city gate, and Shehuai led five thousand cavalry, followed Li Kang, turned over and killed back to the enemy camp.
The cavalry of Shihuai was dispatched, and the king of Qin looked at Wang Qian: "General Wang, you can lead another 10,000 people out of the city, and it is enough to leave 1,000 people at each gate in the city." β
Wang Jian frowned and said, "King, will it be a little less?" Your safety ......"
King Qin said: "As long as the city is fought hard, the officials and soldiers will have no time to come to attack the city, just go." He looked at the generals and said, "You and the others will follow General Wang out of the city, leaving only Mr. Zhang Yi by my side." β
And all the generals gave up their orders together and ran down the city.
Wang Jian raised 10,000 infantry early and prepared to go out of the east gate to attack the official army.
Ziyi said: "General, there are already five thousand cavalry out with Shehuai at the east gate, should we separate the men and horses and attack each gate separately?" β
Wang Jian shook his head: "The officers and soldiers of each gate are not less than one or two hundred thousand people, if we separate the people, they are all outnumbered, and we can't bargain, outside the east gate is Xiong Wencan's Chinese army camp, let's concentrate the men and horses, sweep it out with a drum, and then follow the enemy's defeated army to chase and kill each gate, it will be much smoother, in this way, the enemy is defeated in front, our elite soldiers are behind, and the official army camp will be crushed by their own people." β
Ji Mengdie nodded again and again: "General Wang's plan is the best." Ziyi said: "Okay, then rush." β
Not long after, the east gate of Xi'an City was opened, and 10,000 infantry rushed out of it and rushed to the large battalion of officers and soldiers.
The king of Qin saw clearly from the top of the city, and he commanded: "Take the drum." Zhang Yi hurriedly handed the two drumsticks to the King of Qin, and a big drum was pushed on the head of the city, and the King of Qin personally waved the drumsticks and beat the war drums. He knew that Xi'an would break the siege and fight here. As long as the tens of thousands of officers and troops under the city can be defeated, Guanzhong will be in the hands of the Qin army from then on. There is hope that his homeland will be restored.
The infantry of the Qin army who went out of the city heard the sound of drums, looked back, and saw that the fire at the head of the city was flourishing, and the king of Qin was beating the drum in person in the firelight, which made the courage of the Qin soldiers double, you know, it was an emperor through the ages, and Qin Shi Huang was cheering for himself.
With red eyes, 10,000 Qin troops raised their spears, danced steel knives, and slaughtered into the official barracks.
The officers and troops outside the east gate had already been broken through the camp by Li Gan, and after Li Dang rushed over, these people wanted to organize an effective battle formation, but before they could assemble, Bai Qi and Li Yan rushed over again and scattered them again. The officers and troops at the east gate began to crumble, running in all directions, and no longer formed a formation.
At this time, Xiong Wencan had already fled to the south gate and ordered the guards here to reinforce the east gate with all his might. At this time, the guards of the south gate had withdrawn their men and horses from the west gate, and more than 10,000 officers and soldiers came to the east gate. At the same time, the officers and soldiers at the north gate also received news that the camp of the Chinese army at the east gate was in a tight situation, and they hurriedly led the army to come.
The two official troops, about 30,000 people, went towards the Qin army.
At this time, there were about 20,000 people in the Qin army at the east gate, including 6,000 cavalry from Bai Qi, 5,000 cavalry from Shehuai, and 10,000 infantry from Wang Qian. But in terms of command, it is much stronger than the officers and soldiers.
The four famous generals of the Warring States period arrived at two at the same time, but on the side of the official army, they were some nobodies, and the somewhat famous He Renlong and Gao Jie and others were not there, plus the military spirit of the official army had been somewhat lost, and Xiong Wencan's prestige was insufficient, so no one fought for him.
Bai Qi and several generals had already joined forces, and before they had time to reminisce, they saw countless officers and soldiers rushing from the north and south directions, with cavalry in front and infantry in the rear, rushing over. Bai Qi looked at it coldly, and there was a sneer, he saw that these officers and soldiers were many and unorganized, powerful and not strong, so many people, but the killing sound was far less loud than the Qin army's side, just looking at the momentum, this battle could be won.
So Bai Qi ordered Wang Jian to lead the 5,000 cavalry of Shehuai, plus 5,000 infantry, to block the officers and troops coming from the north gate, and personally led Li Yan, Ji Mengdie, Ziyi, Tang Sai'er and others to meet the officers and troops at the south gate, and Li Dang was still the vanguard. Because Bai Qi had already learned that Xiong Wencan had fled to the south gate, he wanted to kill Xiong Wencan in one go.
At this time, Xiong Wencan gathered more than 10,000 people around him, and his courage was also strong, he knew that his troops were scattered in the four gates, and it was easy to be broken by the Qin army, so he ordered all the horses to assemble at the east gate, and he wanted to fight a decisive battle with the Qin army outside the east gate of Xi'an.
In fact, Lei Sheng was in the West Gate, and he couldn't support it anymore, he only had a few thousand people, after rushing into the official army camp, he began to fight the official army dizzy, but gradually the officers and soldiers found that there were not too many people who came to sneak attack, so they shouted to surround up, fortunately, these people led by Lei Sheng, under the strict training of Bai Qi, were high-spirited, fought in formations, and there were many desperate people, and few people were afraid of death, and the 20,000 people of the official army were fighting around thousands of people, and they couldn't eat these thousands of people.
After fighting for nearly an hour, Xiong Wencan's order came over, asking the guard to fully support the east gate and fight a decisive battle with the Qin army, the guard was very angry, thinking that if he fought for another hour, he could wipe out this sneak attack of the enemy, let him go to the east gate at this time, what should I do here?
So he left a partial general, with 5,000 people, to fight with Lei Sheng's men and horses, and personally led 10,000 people to the east gate.
