Chapter Seventy-One: Shuiluo
Wang Qingyun brazenly proclaimed himself emperor, and after careful calculation, it seems that he cannot be arrogant--- he already has nearly 20,000 thieves under his command, and he has always been the only one in the realm of Luoyang. Now that the remnants of Daoluo have been merged, the total number of troops has exceeded 20,000, just counting the number of people, it is still above the Wei army, how can you be afraid of the Wei army?
A wide stream flows from south to north, dividing Shuiluo City into two cities, east and west. Wan Qi Daoluo volunteered to defend the eastern city, wanting to fight each other with the western city where Wang Qingyun was located, occupy the advantage of defending the city, and force back the tired Wei army from afar.
Don't want Wang Qingyun to boast of being familiar with the local geography, and feel that his army is waiting for work, so why not take the initiative to attack? Then he forcibly ordered Wan Qi Daoluo to open the city and go out of the city with him to fight.
Wan Qi Daoluo was helpless, cheered up, and hit the horse.
Erzhu Tianguang hated Wan Qi Daoluo, and commanded most of the soldiers and horses in the army to take the direction of Dongcheng and overwhelm the world. Wan Qi Daoluo is indeed extraordinary, and he can even be called a command, and he has been fighting with the Wei army for a long time with weak troops, but he still has the power to support, and he only hopes that Wang Qingyun can come to the aid in time.
It's a pity that Wang Qingyun is called "Xilong Emperor", in fact, he lives in a corner, he is a "soil emperor" who has never seen the world, and he is really an opponent as soon as he fights with the elite Wei army--- he Bayue only takes 5,000 steps to ride, and discharges a large array, and the Chinese army's thick shield spear is matched with bows and arrows, and it is impermeable; The cavalry on both wings interspersed back and forth, rushing and stabbing, and in a short time, the originally wide formation of the thief army became narrower and narrower, and finally it could not bear the pressure, and the array was completely lost, and it was a mess. When the Wei army pressed up again, Wang Qingyun was frightened, turned his horse's head and ran, and the thief army collapsed and fled in all directions.
Wang Qingyun led more than 10,000 soldiers and horses to fight and fled back to Xicheng, with only more than 3,000 people. The Wei army killed 2,000 thieves, and the rest were close to 7,000 thieves, and they were taken prisoner and held in the camp.
Wan Qi Daoluo fought hard for a long time, couldn't wait for Wang Qingyun to come to the rescue, and finally couldn't support it, and when he wanted to retreat to Dongcheng, he was surprised to find that the banner at the head of the city had already changed to the Great Wei Heishui Flag--- but it was Yuwentai who led a partial division to detour to Dongcheng, and personally led the dead soldiers to ascend first, and the city was not well guarded and could not stop him. The Wei army then had to take the head of the city, and even attacked the eastern city in one fell swoop.
Wan Qi Daoluo was also decisive, pulled the horse's head, and turned to Xicheng. finally escaped back to Xicheng, and the number of people was counted, less than two thousand. This morning, there were still as many as 9,000 soldiers and horses in Dongcheng, nearly 3,000 were killed on the battlefield, and more than 4,000 people remained.
Now in the west city of Shuiluo City, the remnants of Wan Qi Daoluo and Wang Qingyun add up, and the number of thieves is less than 6,000. Wang Qingyun lost his soul and lost his previous heroism, and when he saw Wan Qi Daoluo, he couldn't regret it.
。。。。。。
"Who?" "Enemy attack!" "Watch out!"
This is the bank of the long stream outside the east city of Shuiluo City, and in the night, there seems to be a longing figure coming from the west.
He Bayue was cautious and steady, and although he won a big victory, he did not dare to slack off, and persuaded Erzhu Tianguang to set up sentry posts to monitor the enemy's situation. Erzhu Tianguang acted according to the plan, so there were also two teams of Wei soldiers on duty at night on the side of the stream here. Sure enough, Wei Jun found out that something was wrong, so he shouted, and even pulled up the bowstring in his hand, as if he didn't want money, and fired the arrow to the past.
There were screams in the darkness, and many people should have fallen to the ground with arrows. The rest of the people shouted, turned around, and ran westward, and gradually drifted away, and the sound was also silenced.
The Wei army was bold, lit a torch and touched the stream, and saw that the west of the stream was crooked, shooting five or six thieves, and two thieves were hit by arrows in the legs, lying on the ground and rolling around. When I looked again, the thief was surrounded by overturned barrels. Wei Jun smiled dumbly: "It turns out that I came to fetch water to eat." ”
The two wounded thieves were soon taken to the eastern city of Shuiluo City, which is now the camp of the Wei army.
He Bayue went to interrogate in person, but before the torture equipment could be used, the two thieves were already 1510, and they explained clearly.
It turned out that there was no water source in the east and west of Shuiluocheng, and the water used on weekdays was all based on this long stream between the two cities. Originally, the thief army sat on the two cities, and each other was horns, and no matter how bold the Wei army was, they did not dare to penetrate between the two cities, for fear of being attacked. Now it's good, the east city is lost, and Changjian is no longer controlled by the thief army, and I want to go out of the city to fight, and the main force is lost. . . I had no choice but to take advantage of the night to send someone to venture to fetch water.
。。。。。。
Early the next morning, before dawn, He Bayue ran to Erzhu Tianguang, and hurriedly said about the thief soldiers stealing water last night, and said: "The terrain of the west city of Shuiluo City is dangerous, and the city is high and thick. I am afraid that the thieves will open the city and flee, and they will have to escape into the mountains, and when they chase again, it will be a big trouble. ”
The entire county of Luoyang is located between high mountains and mountains, and Shuiluocheng is no exception, almost surrounded by mountains. Wan Qi Daoluo got out many times, all relying on the dense surrounding mountains, once he ran into the mountains, he suddenly disappeared. At the bottom of Erzhu Tianguang's heart, he was really afraid of Wan Qi Daoluo's life-saving kung fu, and when he heard this, he was in a hurry and shouted: "Ah Dou Ni has a plan? This time, I definitely can't escape from that Wan Daoluo and Wang Qingyun anymore! After a pause, he said: "Otherwise, hurry up and surround the west city of Shuiluo City, won't the thieves be able to fly with wings?" ”
He Bayue couldn't stop groaning, and muttered to himself: "If you want to besiege the city, then the west city of Shuiluo City is surrounded by mountains, and many places can't garrison troops at all. If the thief doesn't care about the casualties, he can always escape from such a dangerous place. Nai shook his head: "It's not appropriate to besiege the city, most of them can't be besieged." Others are just fine, if they go to Wan Qi Daoluo and Wang Qingyun, won't they give up their efforts? ”
When Erzhu Tianguang heard this, he became more and more anxious, and blurted out: "Then what should I do?" Who knows when he'll open the door and run away? Never... Can't you bring down this thief? ”
Erzhu Tianguang also said casually, but he didn't want He Bayue's eyes to light up, and he responded: "That's right! Recruiting thieves is not a bad idea. ”
Erzhu Tianguang turned his face: "That's not possible!" This thief is so tired that I have not been rewarded for my work, and I have to trek several times and three times. If I can't kill him, I really can't get over it in my heart! ”
"It's just a stopgap measure." He Bayue smiled gloomily: "It is precisely because I don't want Wan Qi Daoluo and Wang Qingyun to escape, so I came up with this strategy." When the thief is in his hands, whether he wants to die or live, is it not up to me to have the final say? ”
"That's a good idea! Do as you say! Erzhu Tianguang turned from worry to joy, pointed at He Bayue and grinned: "Ah Dou Ni, you, you, you are not a good person." ”
He Bayue smiled and said: "These two thieves are full of evil, and the thief's heart is not dead, which is actually a crime that cannot be forgiven. What morality is there with such people? ”
"What about these two thieves?" Erzhu Tianguang looked angry and gritted his teeth: "If you want me to say, this entire Shuiluo City is full of extremely evil criminals. Poor mountains and bad waters, do your best to get rid of the thieves, give them food, it's better to feed the dogs directly... Why don't you kill all in one go, and never suffer in the future! ”
Erzhu Tianguang said seriously, but He Bayue was startled, and secretly thought: The ones who were caught, those who were not caught, they were one or two thousand prisoners. Kill them all? That's too ... It's okay, it's okay, it's probably the majority of the governors who held their breath and said it casually...
