The battle between Tang Yuan and Yue Ting entered a white heat, which was extremely unfavorable for Tang Yuan, the enemy army was four times his own, and the reinforcements on his own side were so vulnerable.

Tang Qi sent Wang Tianpeng, Zhen Xiuwei, Zhen Tailan, Shi Xiaotong, and Shi Xiaohe to lead the troops, and they were all recruits.

Tang Yuan believes that this is Tang Qi's helpless move and the biggest failure. Their appearance is better than not appearing. Kong Xi also said the same idea as Tang Yuan. But this was not difficult for Kong Xian, who not only did not feel that the situation was unfavorable, but instead said an astonishing sentence, he said: "Let the three generals go straight into the hinterland of the enemy army and attract all the main forces of the enemy army, and we can withdraw." Then let's take a detour to the north to hit Yue Ting's base camp. As soon as Yue Ting dies, the enemy army will disperse. ”

Tang Yuan knew in his heart that this was a feasible method for the entire Flying Tiger Army, but for Tang Yuan, it was not feasible. Let Tang Hu rush in, then he will never come back.

Tang Qi had already said that Ci was not in charge of the army, and Tang Yuan's biggest weakness was that there were too many things that he couldn't give up. Similarly, if Tang Yuan didn't have this weakness, he wouldn't have become Tang Qi's henchman. Tang Qi also took advantage of Tang Yuan's weakness to promote and cultivate wholeheartedly all the way. To this day, he is still working hard for Tang Qi.

Then Kong Xian came up with a second idea: "Divide the troops, Yin and Yang are in a strong formation, and if you are lucky, the two armies can rush out, but this will lose at least 50,000 people." ”

"Feasible." Qi Cheng, Zhao Chi, and Chen Bao all supported this opinion.

Qi Cheng knew Tang Yuan, and he knew that Tang Yuan was reluctant to Tang Hu, so he agreed to the second plan.

Zhao Chi was frightened by the scenes of the war, and now he is besieged, so scared that he can't sleep, as long as he can rush out, he can do anything, so he also agreed.

Chen Bao was worried that everyone would agree to the first plan, so he agreed to the second plan.

Nalan Xin said: "Don't be busy, I don't think the queen will watch us and the reinforcements being eaten, although Wang Tianpeng and they can't help us tear the hole, but they haven't withdrawn their troops yet, they are still working hard, and they are also surrounded." If we withdraw, they will also die. In this way, the Liang army lost 100,000 at once, and there were 50,000 main forces, and we could not afford such losses. ”

Tang Yuan said: "Continue to think of a way, what I want is not to withdraw the army, but to counterattack." I see that the enemy's combat strength is very limited, and although they are numerous, this is not a reason for our defeat. One breakthrough and the loss of 50,000 people is a big defeat for me. We have to change our strategy, we can't just think about the breakthrough, since the enemy forces have formed two encirclements, then, this narrow strip of land within the two encirclements is the place where the enemy is most closely armed, let's not touch that mold, let's think about it the other way. ”

"Let's fight west." Chen Bao said.

Tang Yuan said: "Rush out, rush back again, and go straight to the Yue Ting camp." ”

"That's it!" Tang Hu said.

"!" Tang Yuan clapped his hands and said: "Tang Hu, Ma Ben, you two are the vanguard, rush out for me, the other troops are all followed, who the hell is left behind, Zhonglang will cut all the following officers by himself!" ”

Breaking out of the encirclement is easier said than done.

Tang Hu's vanguard division paid the price of a whole brigade, and it simply paved the way with corpses.

Three thousand heavy cavalry, braving the rain of arrows to rush to the enemy's position, but also to face all kinds of fortifications, trapping horse pits, tripping horse ropes, thistles, rolling horse nails, soldiers jumped off their horses to clean up the road, but were nailed to the barricades by strong crossbows, soldiers, horses fell in rows, fell basically can no longer stand up, the scene is bloody and cruel.

After two hours of reckless charge, breaking through the three blockades, finally forcing the enemy army back and fighting a way. Tsinghua

Tang Yuan really guessed correctly, the section of the road between the Flying Tiger Army and Wang Tianpeng's reinforcements was the most closely defended place for the enemy, while the other directions were relatively weak. Yue Ting thought that Tang Yuan would definitely rush to the reinforcements, but in fact Tang Yuan did the opposite.

But even so, he did not completely break out of the encirclement, and Yue Ting's encirclement was multi-layered. The Liang army paid the price of a whole heavy cavalry brigade and only broke out of the first encirclement, but soon, the enemy's second encirclement soldiers rushed over. It is necessary to re-plug this opening.

After Tang Hu broke through three lines of defense in a row, he still had to resist the surging reinforcements of the enemy, and they were crazy, so they had to block this opening again. There are too many enemy soldiers to kill.

Tang Hu's troops were the most well-equipped heavy iron cavalry troops, but even so, they were beaten by the enemy and could not raise their heads, and were surrounded by a support corps, Tang Hu personally led the team, and seven charges were fruitless.

The vanguard was surrounded.

From morning to afternoon, I finally saw Ma Ben's reinforcements coming, Ma Ben looked at it and sighed.

Ma Ben was young and vigorous, and led two thousand light cavalry to rush down, but the result was like a stone sinking into the sea, which almost did not play a role, that is, it just let Tang Hu take a breath.

"Report to the general, Tang Hu and Ma Ben are surrounded by 30,000 enemy troops! Repeated unsuccessful charges, calling for reinforcements. ”

Tang Yuan said: "Inform Yue Pu, Fu Ying, rescue Tang Hu at all costs!" ”

"Yes!" The scout is gone.

Nalan said: "Yue Pu and Fu Ying are in charge of the two wings of the headquarters, if they withdraw, I am afraid that the safety of the headquarters will be threatened." ”

"I don't care about that much." Tang Yuan also had many herald scouts around him: "Inform all divisions, give up all baggage, give up all the food to the soldiers, don't care about the formation, and all rush out." ”

Kong said: "In this way, how can the various divisions take care of each other? ”

Tang Yuan said: "I believe in my troops, they don't need me to say anything, they will take care of each other." Didn't you ask me why I brought out an army that couldn't be defeated? I'll tell you now, that with the trust I have in my brothers, they will support each other even without my orders. ”

Kong Xian didn't believe it, and said, "I don't think so." ”

Tang Yuan sneered: "I'll let you see what is the real army that can't be defeated." ”

The marshal Tang Yuan, as the commander of 100,000 people, actually rushed forward with his troops, and the first division directly under him had been handed over to Liu Zhan to command, and now his unit was not the first division, but the fourth division of the supervising army.

This huge prison corps is usually managed by Qi Cheng, the chief army, but when it comes to battle, this army can be transferred by Tang Yuan at any time, which makes Qi Cheng feel helpless. The subordinate will proofread Tang Yuan's orders, and respond to every call.

These 10,000 people are like a black wind, blowing everywhere there is no grass.

That night, the scout came to report, three miles from the right, Zhang Jing was surrounded, Liu Zhan was supporting, and he couldn't rush out.
