Chapter 80: Kip Stone
On the big river, I don't know when it started, and you can see the rafts of the Northern Army everywhere. Before and after, virtual and real, spanning hundreds of miles. Zhang Fan raised his oars, as if he was about to rush to the crossing.
Yuan Guan was panicked, and led his troops to chase the traces of the Northern Army, rushing back and forth, tired and half dead, but found that it was all the suspicious tactics of the Northern Army, and he couldn't help but be angry and annoyed.
In fact, Er Zhurong on the north shore is also hesitating, which one to choose to cross the main force? If it happens to run into the main force of the Southern Army, and ask people to intercept it along the river, or attack it halfway through, it will not be able to guarantee a big loss.
I was sleepy, so someone brought a pillow.
Yang Biao, the general of Fubo, lives on the top of Ma Zhu in the big river, since he hit Yuan Hao into Luo, he has no intention of being an official in the court, so he retreats to Ma Zhu. Now I heard that Er Zhurong was going to cross south, so he led the people to come in a small boat and asked for a guide.
Er Zhurong was overjoyed and personally went out to greet him. Yang Biao said: "In the west of Mazhu, there is a place called Kip Stone, the river is narrow and shallow, and the penny can reach the bottom, which is the most suitable for raft crossing." Yang Biao lives here, is well versed in the local water conditions, because he sees the Tianzhu to help Wei to remove the rebellion, Yang Biao is not talented, and is willing to be a guide! ”
Er Zhurong smiled so hard that he stepped forward to hold Yang Biao's hand, and said: "Yang Fubo is loyal and righteous, he will be rebellious one day, and he will be knighted." ”
In the final analysis, it was Yuan Hao and others who went perversely in Luozhong and lost the hearts of the people.
Because Er Zhurong became more and more convinced of the destiny of heaven, he ordered a large number of southward crossings.
Because Erzhu Zhao, the most courageous under the account, was ill, Er Zhurong ordered to transfer He Basheng, who was the first in Wuchuan Army, to serve as the vanguard, and Dugu Xin was the deputy, and allocated 8,000 elite horsemen to cross the river.
In the second year of Wei Yong'an (the third year of Liang Datong, the first year of Yuan Hao Jianwu), the eighteenth day of leap June, the day of Wuchen, the sun was setting, first Er Zhu Shilong, He Bayue and others would cross the river at the east of the Heqiao City Fortress 20 miles, all the way with great fanfare, the noise shook the sky, and thousands of rafts on the river surface were exhausted, and they were menacing.
When Yuan Guan heard the news, he jumped up in shock, and led the main force of the army to rush to the east of Heqiao City Fortress at full speed, and lined up to wait.
The northern army seemed to be intimidated by the southern army, and they did not dare to set foot on the shore as they patrolled the river. Yuan Guan breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't dare to relax his vigilance, and ordered the whole army to be on alert and attack at any time. In two moments, the confrontation began.
When it was dark at night, fifteen miles west of Heqiao City, the water surface of Kip Shikou suddenly rose violently, He Batsheng and Duguxin led the team, and countless boats and rafts took advantage of the night to go into the water. The night was deep and turbulent, and not a single Southern army patrol boat was missing on the water.
Yang Biaoqi took the lead in a fast boat, and sure enough, he was very familiar with the local water conditions, where the rapids, whirlpools, reefs... All of them avoided and crossed the river with a raft team.
As soon as they landed, the Northern Army was immediately alive and vigorous, and everyone was in good spirits. He Batsheng and Dugu Xin did not stop, gathered 8,000 fine horses, quickly rode and whipped, and went east to take the Yuan Guan.
Yang Biao still stayed on the bank of the river, and the main force of the Northern Army continued to cross the river.
。。。。。。
In the battle that night, He Batsheng and Dugu Xin suddenly came from the flank, and Yuan Guanshou was defenseless and was defeated on the spot. Erzhu Shilong and He Bayue took advantage of the situation to cross the river and join the siege, but Yuan Guan was annihilated by the whole army, and he was captured for his own life.
The next day, on the nineteenth day of leap June, Yuan Hao in Luoyang City heard that Yuan Guan had been defeated, and he was shocked and wanted to gather the soldiers and horses of the Beijing division to counterattack. I don't want everyone to know that the general trend has gone, and it is only three miles out of the city, and the soldiers and horses under his command are scattered in a hurry, leaving more than ten henchmen on the side.
Yuan Hao cried bitterly, and did not dare to return to Luoyang, so he had no choice but to turn around and flee south, and he did not press the table.
At this point, the main force of Yuan Hao was completely wiped out, leaving only the white-robed army in Beizhong City, Yang Zhong's headquarters in Heqiao City, and some scattered teams in various places. Including Luoyang, at this time, the counties of Henan Province are still nominally his Yuanhao, and they can be thought of with their buttocks.
So in the south of the river, there were neighing horses everywhere, and all the soldiers and horses of the northern army acted separately, so that the comings and goings were endless, and it was so lively that it was not good.
Erzhu Shilong was familiar with the road and led his troops to Luoyang; He Bayue and other generals divided their troops everywhere, or pursued the remnants of Yuan Hao, or surrendered the cities along the way; Er Zhurong accompanied Yuan Ziyou to cross the river, because of the etiquette of the monarch and the minister, it was inconvenient to enter Luo in a hurry, so he temporarily stationed in the Beipi Palace.
He Batsheng and Dugu Xin's vanguard army was not idle, and at this time, under the city fortress of Chen Bingheqiao, two columnists stepped forward and shouted loudly: "Brother Zhong'er! It's me, Po Hu (Period Mitou) Oh! ”
Yang Zhong's figure appeared on the head of the city, and he was surprised and happy, happy that he finally had to see the two good brothers again, and he was surprised that the northern army had gone around behind the south bank, and last night there were fires on both sides of the east and west, and they all heard the shouts of killing, so it is conceivable that most of them had a big incident.
Sure enough, Dugu Xin hurriedly shouted: "Yuan Guan was annihilated by the whole army, and Yuan Hao has also abandoned Luoyang and fled alone." The general trend of the rebel party has gone, Brother Zhong, open the city quickly, don't make mistakes! ”
How could Yang Zhong not believe what Qi Mitou said? He was just doing his best to obey the fate of heaven, and when he heard this, he laughed, and without hesitation, he ordered the gate to be opened and the northern army entered the city. The southern army under his command couldn't wait for this, so they ran down the city and opened the door.
The three of them sat down, so it was a sigh. Yang Zhong said with a smile: "I finally have to reunite with a few Agan today, hurry, hurry." At the thought of being able to be with his brothers every day in the future, Yang Zhong was overjoyed. ”
He Batsheng and Dugu Xin glanced at each other and smiled bitterly.
He Batsheng pushed Dugu Xin and said, "You come and say." Dugu Xin was helpless, put on a bitter gourd face, and said: "Brother Zhong, now... I'm afraid it's not time yet ... ”
Yang Zhong froze: "How do you say this?" ”
"It's just because Brother Zhong hurt Tianzhu's beloved nephew Zhu Zhao, Tianzhu was furious, if he met Brother Zhong at this time, most of them would be killed. Our brothers have discussed, why don't we let you sneak away and hide first. After the limelight, I will plead with Tianzhu to intercede, and then the brothers will pick you back, and it will not be too late. ”
didn't want to be such a result, Yang Zhong was gloomy for a while, and was speechless for a while. Finally, he stood up straight and arched his hand: "In this case, without further ado, Yang Zhong will go." ”
He Batsheng squatted on the side and sighed, and Duguxin stepped forward to hug Yang Zhong and wept.
"That's right!" Yang Zhong suddenly remembered something, hurriedly broke free from Dugu Xin, and opened his mouth to ask, "Then in Beizhong City, what is happening to the white-robed army now?" ”
Dugu said: "Shangdang Wang Yuan Tianmu led the army to besiege Beizhong City, and only besieged it. When Tianzhu calms Henan, he will wave his army to the north and annihilate the white-robed thieves. ”
Hearing the word "total annihilation", Yang Zhong's face was not very good-looking.
He Batsheng saw it in his eyes, and said angrily: "Brother Zhong, you must not wade into this troubled water." Now all of my Great Wei people hate this white-robed thief to death. Tianzhu has already made it clear that all the thieves in white robes deserve to die, and on the day the city is broken, there will be no one left! ”
Dugu Xin nodded and said: "Brother Zhong'er, you also said that you were forced to enter Liang at the beginning, and you just did your best, but now you don't have any women's kindness." ”
Yang Zhong couldn't help but raise his voice: "But Xiaokuan is still in the city!" ”
"Hyokuan?" Dugu Xin was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly said: "Is this Guo Ge'er's expression?" ”
"Exactly!"
He Batsheng's tone was gloomy: "I knew that Xiaoguozi was still in Beizhong City, but what can I do now?" He patted Yang Zhong on the shoulder and said, "But don't worry, Brother Zhong, the brothers have already discussed, and they will definitely try their best to rescue him when they turn around, and they will not stand idly by." ”
Yang Zhong wanted to speak several times, and finally arched his hand and said, "Yang Zhong understands, so he will leave." You two, don't send each other! ”
