Chapter 454: Flee without a fight

That is, on the night of two days before Li Xun led the army to Xiaogu County, the Tubo army raided Liangzhou City.

With 10,000 soldiers of the Qiu Bai tribe as the vanguard, Cai Cai, the deputy governor of Liangzhou, became the internal response, opened the city gate, and the enemy army entered the city smoothly, and nearly 10,000 defenders in the city were defenseless and could not organize effective resistance, and the entire Liangzhou city soon fell.

Subsequently, the 50,000 Anbei troops stationed outside the city, in addition to the 10,000 soldiers who stayed in the camp, the remaining 40,000 troops, under the leadership of the general Zhao Kui, attacked Liangzhou City, intending to recapture the city and rescue the marshal Ma Wu.

The praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind.

Zhao Kui led an army of 20,000 to attack the city, the Qiu Bai tribe desperately resisted, and set fire to the city, the two sides fell into a melee, and the battle situation was difficult to distinguish for a while.

After nearly two hours of fierce fighting, most of the Qiu Bai people were killed and wounded, and the whole army was about to be destroyed.

Before dawn, the 20,000 soldiers of Anbei besieging the city, and the 10,000 soldiers who stayed in the camp, saw that the overall situation had been decided, and the army's heart was already a little relaxed.

Gewa divided his troops into two routes, one with 10,000 soldiers, led by himself, and went straight to Liangzhou City, and the other with 10,000 soldiers, led by his henchman Anka Pogan, stormed the Anbei camp.

Wang Dezhao, who stayed in the camp, saw that the overall situation had been decided, and there was no accident, his heart was relaxed, gathered 5,000 soldiers and horses, and was about to go to Liangzhou City, who knew that the Tubo army suddenly arrived, caught off guard, and the camp gate was breached.

Wang Dezhao is also brave, gathered 2,000 soldiers and horses in the headquarters, desperately resisted, the Tubo army was difficult to capture for a while, and the two sides formed a stalemate, but Tubo obviously had prepared and premeditated, after entering the camp, set fire everywhere, the fire was soaring, and it was clearly visible several miles away.

The fire of the camp caused panic among the 20,000 Anbei soldiers outside the city, thinking that the camp had been lost and the army's morale was floating.....

In the first battle of Liangzhou, 10,000 soldiers defending the city, plus 50,000 soldiers in the hands of Ma Wu, a total of 60,000 troops, but there were traitors inside and ambushes outside, and finally ended in a fiasco, Ma Wu was seriously injured and unconscious, 60,000 troops, more than half of the dead and wounded, and finally fled back to Anbei.

Subsequently, Gewaryu Anka Porgan led 15,000 soldiers, stayed in Liangzhou City, led 8,000 soldiers by himself, took Cai as a guide, changed into the clothes of the Jin army, went to the state, deceived the gate of Tuxia City, and entered the city, and the Tubo army outside the city, inside and outside, from noon to night, Xu Chengliang was killed, Liu Zhigu was captured, and 40,000 defenders were killed and wounded.

Gu Yong, the governor of Liangzhou, saw that the general trend had gone, so he had to order the whole army to break through, lead more than 10,000 remnants of the army, and flee to Shanzhou.

Gewa settled the battle in the first battle, on the one hand, he sent troops and horses to consolidate the defense force of Liangzhou and the state, and each of the two states had 30,000 troops to guard, and on the other hand, he led the main army of 150,000 to attack Shanzhou, and sent more than 20,000 of them to attack Langzhou.

After Gu Yong fled to Shanzhou, he immediately sent someone to Langzhou to inform Zhao Feidu, after Zhao Feidu got the news, he was cold and frightened, and he was in chaos, regardless of the life and death of Shanzhou and Li Xun's army who came to support, and even sent a person to send a letter to Li Xun.

"Bastard."

After hearing the complete news, Li Xun was furious, pulled out his sword suddenly, and scolded loudly: "Zhao Feidu, labor and management your eight-generation ancestors." ”

At this time, Sima Tu, Shan Qiu and others had already arrived, and hurriedly inquired about the situation, and after Li Cunxiao finished speaking, everyone's faces were extremely pale, and even Zhao Wei, who had always been gentle, couldn't help but scold: "Zhao Feidu, if you see it, I will definitely let him break his bones and scatter ashes." ”

Sima Tu quickly calmed down from the shock, and he did not rush to express his opinion, but fell into deep thought.

Zhao Wei arched his hand and said urgently: "Marshal, the battle situation has changed, I should retreat quickly." ”

Li Xun nodded, Liangzhou fell, the Anbei army that came to support was defeated, Ma Wu didn't know whether he was alive or dead, the state and Langzhou were all lost, Shanzhou was also in danger, he almost became a lone army here, and if he went further, he was looking for death, so he could only retreat to Xiaogu County for the time being, and then make plans.

Li Xun was about to order the withdrawal of the army, Sima Tu raised his head at this moment and said in a deep voice: "Lord, think twice, don't be so anxious about the retreat." ”

Li Xun frowned and said: "If you don't retreat at this time, once the enemy army covers up, if we want to retreat, I'm afraid it won't work." ”

"Our army of 30,000 is here, how can Tubo not know? Now Zhao Feidu fled without a fight, the huge Langzhou, Tubo is occupied without much effort, at this moment is the time when the army's heart is floating, the lord is afraid that even if there is a move to turn back, the morale of the whole army will be gone, at that time, once the Tubo army attacks, how can we resist? Sima Tu glanced around, at this time, more and more officers and generals were rushing here, obviously not knowing what was going on, so they came over to ask, Sima Tu pulled Li Xun and whispered such a thing.

The matter is naturally not as serious as Sima Tu said, but Li Xun knows that he is also using this as an analogy, he is the master of an army, in a changing situation, he should be quiet and steady, if he is frizzy and messed up first, the people below, the pressure and blow in their hearts will be greater.

Li Xun squinted his eyes and nodded slightly.

"Dashuai, Li Cunxiao is flustered, what's the matter?"

"All the generals are here, but what's going on?"

Dozens of middle-level officers have arrived, and they have asked about the situation one after another.

"Shut up all the labor."

Li Xun's face sank, he roared, glanced at everyone, and said with a cold face: "A little thing, it's so anxious, you are still soldiers?" Or fucking man? ”

Everyone bowed their hands and worshipped: "Please calm your anger." ”

Li Xun said in a deep voice: "Tubo already knows that we are coming, I am afraid that it will take advantage of the night to raid, you wait to return to the headquarters as soon as possible, gather their respective soldiers and horses, and be careful to be on guard, who dares to be frizzy and rash, disturb the hearts of our army, and deal with it by military law, and never be spared." ”

"I'll take the order."

Everyone bowed their hands and bowed, and then dispersed.

Li Xun looked at Sima Tu and asked, "What now?" ”

Sima Tu said: "Gather the soldiers and horses, wait for the scouts to bring back the news, and make plans." ”

Yu Yanhui said in a deep voice: "Mr. Sima is right. ”

Shan Qiu and Zhao Wei glanced at each other, and then said to Li Xun: "I'll go to patrol the camp and arrange things in the army, and after the scouts return, I will come to you again to discuss the military." ”

"Let's get busy, I'll be here later."

The crowd dispersed, and Li Xun and Sima Tu returned to the camp.

"Do you think the Tibetans will take the opportunity to attack?"

Sima Tu nodded and said affirmatively: "Langzhou originally had 10,000 defenders, if Tubo came to attack the city, the strength was at least 20,000 or more, and now they took Langzhou without spending a single soldier, the time was less than two hours apart, in their opinion, I am afraid that we have not yet learned the news that Langzhou has been lost, and the defense must not be strong, and now it is late at night, this is an excellent opportunity for a night attack, how can they miss it?" 2k reading network
