Chapter 827: Surrender and attack Langzhong

At this time, he saw that the spearmen and cavalry of the Tang Army, like chasing death, were still chasing and killing these poor routs, and Ma Yuanli's heart was even more like a knife.

It's hateful, 50,000 soldiers and horses were defeated in one fell swoop, this is simply the biggest shame and defeat since he joined the army and led the army!

And when he saw the cavalry of the Tang Army, which was launching a tactical action of all-round encirclement and striving for encirclement and annihilation, he felt even more frightened in his heart.

Such a hateful fellow not only defeated himself, but also thought of completely cutting off his own back road, and swallowing all these 50,000 soldiers into his stomach, which is really hateful!

At this time, a bloody and embarrassed guard hurriedly ran to his side, and said in a trembling voice: "General Ma, our army is completely defeated, and it is impossible to clean it up, the Tang cavalry is about to close the circle, and our army is worried about the annihilation." In the current situation, where should we go from here? ”

Ma Yuanli looked at the guard's pale face, his heart hurt like a knife, and he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

Now that the battle has collapsed, even though I am the main general, what can I do to save the situation. He raised his head slowly, his eyes were full of helplessness, but his voice was very clear: "Pass on the general's order, the whole army will stop resisting and surrender to the Tang army." ”

Hearing this order, the cavalry next to him could hardly believe his ears.

They opened their mouths wide and looked at Ma Yuanli, whose face was strangely distorted, as if they had not yet reacted from the shock.

No way? The general of the Left Army, who was deeply respected by Zhang Xianzhong, just now vowed to fight to the death with the Tang Army, actually wanted to betray the Great Western Kingdom, betray Zhang Xianzhong, and surrender here......

"you! Is the dog deaf?! Fly the flag! If you don't fight again, these brothers won't be able to save it! ”

Ma Yuanli's eyes were blood-red, he roared sharply, and his face was distorted and hideous.

"General, this ......"

Looking at the frightened faces of the guards in front of him, Ma Yuanli's face softened slightly, and he waved his hand weakly: "Needless to say, instead of letting these tens of thousands of brothers be killed by the Tang Army like chickens and sheep, it is better to give them a way to live in time." After all, in this troubled world, the most important thing is to survive. ”

The herald did not dare to slack off, nodded like pounding garlic, hurriedly waved the white flag, and waved it in the air with all his might.

Looking at these waving white flags, Ma Yuanli's heart suddenly kept dripping blood.

! It's really lucky!

What future official position, what wealth and glory, at such an emergency moment, is not as important as Lao Tzu's own life. At such a time, in order to save his life, why not be a shameless person who spits on his mother!

Soon, in the rear formation where Ma Yuanli was, there were loud ringing sounds, and at the same time, several huge white flags were played out from the formation, waving in the wind, which was very conspicuous.

Seeing that the enemy army was in the array, suddenly Mingjin retreated, and then raised a white flag to beg to surrender, and the Tang army's chief general An Monk, who had been paying close attention to the situation with a clairvoyant mirror, knew that Ma Yuanli, who had been fighting to the death, finally couldn't hold back anymore, and in order to avoid the annihilation of the whole army, he had to surrender to the Tang army when the Tang army was not yet fully encircled.

Monk An smiled coldly, put down the clairing mirror, and gave a military order loudly.

"Deliver an order to their surrender, and make them quickly lay down their arms and kneel down to accept surrender, so that their lives can be safed."

"Order!"

When Monk An's order was issued, the Tang army was on the battlefield, indulging in the pursuit of this almost boundless rout.

These routs fled in all directions without aim, and the entire formation was completely broken up and difficult to contain, and everyone only cared about their own hasty flight.

At this point, the entire vast wilderness has become a place for the Tang army to slaughter to its heart's content, and the Great Western Army, which has fled all over the slopes, is like a cow, sheep, pig, and dog that is frantically fleeing for its life, appointing the Tang army to chase and kill and hack to death, and there is no possibility of saving life at all.

What is even more terrifying is that in such a scattered rout, even if there are scattered enemy soldiers who want to surrender, they are immediately killed by the red-eyed Tang soldiers, cut or stabbed, and killed on the spot, without mercy.

It's just that the two-legged infantry, how can they outrun the four-legged cavalry, in the end, they were cut off by the Tang cavalry, and they were about to be surrounded and killed.

Of course, this group of people understood their fate, and they knelt on the ground one after another, kowtowing in the face of the cold blades of the Tang army approaching more and more, and begging for surrender.

In the end, at this life-and-death juncture, the red-eyed Tang Army finally received an order from the commander to surrender. After those routs abandoned their weapons and surrendered on their knees, this ambush battle by Xiaotong Water finally came to an end.

So far, more than 50,000 soldiers and horses of the Great Western Army, only about 3,000 people escaped with their lives, another more than 8,000 people were slaughtered by the Tang army, and the remaining 40,000 people were all captured by the Tang army.

At this time, in the Tang army's formation, continuous cheers sounded, like rolling spring thunder, resounding throughout the field.

Looking at the Tang Army battle formation cheering in front of him, General Ma Yuanli's face twitched, and the painful look on his face was difficult to describe in words.

Damn, I knew that the Tang army was so capable of fighting, and I knew that I was going to be forced to surrender now, why didn't I seize the opportunity of Monk An's persuasion to surrender in the first place, and lead my troops to do it in time, it was just stupid!

If he had led his troops to surrender to the Tang Army in time, maybe it would have been a great achievement, and this promotion to the rank of knight would have been captured.

Where could it be like now, being forced to surrender in such a humiliating way, not only did it cost nearly 10,000 brothers in vain, but its own fate was also completely in the hands of others, and even if the Tang army could accept himself and his subordinates, the benefits and benefits that could be obtained would be greatly reduced!

Ma Yuanli was remorseful, but he was pushed by a group of Tang Army soldiers and came to Monk An, the commander of the Tang Army.

Seeing Ma Yuanli, who was originally sharp-toothed and hard-mouthed, and now so pitiful and helpless, Monk An, who was going to laugh at him, suddenly lost his mood, and just shouted angrily: "Ma Yuanli, you don't listen to the advice of the general, and you want to fight with our army, and now you are in such a situation, and nearly 10,000 of your subordinates have died in vain, all of which are your crimes!" ”

Ma Yuanli looked ashamed, and didn't dare to look at Monk An who was sitting on a horse. He gritted his teeth tightly, and after taking a long breath, he came to Monk An's horse and bowed down.

"The criminal minister Ma Yuanli, resisting the heavenly soldiers, regretted it, now thank the Tang Army for not killing!"

The other subordinate generals, seeing Ma Yuanli bowing his head, no longer hesitated, and immediately followed Ma Yuanli and knelt down to pay respects.

For a while, in front of Monk An's horse, a group of generals of the left army knelt down in a hulala.

"General Jin, I knew this was the case, why bother in the first place!" Monk An was proud, but he deliberately looked regretful, and then let out a long sigh.

Ma Yuanli was ashamed in his heart, he didn't dare to get up, but just bowed his hand and said, "Mayor An, don't say anything." Stupid, have eyes and don't know Mount Tai, and force to compete with your army, today's battle can be described as self-inflicted humiliation, how to regret it! This defeat has come and gone, and there is no face at all. How the general wants to deal with us, but by disposal, there is no other word. ”

"General Ma, you and all the generals should stand up and talk. Now that our army has allowed you to surrender, this previous conflict and all kinds of unhappiness can also be revealed. ”

Monk An happily looked down at Ma Yuanli who was kneeling on the ground, smiled coldly, gently raised the horsewhip, and motioned for him to get up and speak.

Ma Yuanli's face turned red, and after he stood up, the rest of the generals also stood up silently, and the atmosphere was very embarrassing.

Ma Yuanli forced out a smile, stood up, and sighed: "I'm ashamed, thank General An Houde Longen again." Your army is willing to accept us, regardless of the past, and is so lenient, so how can we not put our hearts in our hearts and swear allegiance to the death? From now on, we are willing to work under your army's tent to drive and do our best. ”

When Monk An heard this, he laughed, but he kept sighing in his heart.

Ma Yuanli's guy was so hard-toothed and hard-mouthed before, blindly resisting to the end, but now he is so groveling and flattering. It seems that in the face of reality, this person is soft and knowledgeable.

Monk An despised it in his heart, but on the surface he pretended to appreciate it, and he said in a deep voice: "Very good, General Jin's statement is very much in line with the heart of this general." Rest assured, since our army can accommodate the surrender of others, there is no doubt about it. As long as you serve faithfully, how can you not trust? However, you also need to know that our Tang Army can not blame the past, but it will never allow changes in the future. After coming to our army this time, you must be loyal to us wholeheartedly, and there must be no repetition, otherwise, the military law will be ruthless, and the Tang King will not be spared! ”

Ma Yuanli's heart froze, and he responded urgently: "This is natural, why should the general worry about it." We are so grateful that the generals of the defeated army will be allowed to be taken in by the Tang army, and they dare to have different intentions again. The subordinates of our army let your army arrange the distribution, and they all obeyed their orders. I also hope that King Tang and General An can use the materials regardless of their previous suspicions, and find a way out for the soldiers of our army, and they will be at ease. Here, let me thank General An on their behalf. ”

Monk An nodded, brushed his beard and said, "Well, you really listen to what you say. In our Tang army, there has always been no room for mountains, and your troops and horses, since they are like-minded, they naturally have to be completely reorganized and reorganized by our army, and the generals will lead the troops and soldiers to find their own way, which you can rest assured. However, these are things to be done in the future, and now, you have to do something important, to act with our army. ”

"Thank you, General Huang! Then I will represent the soldiers of the whole army in the next place, and I thank the general here! Ma Yuanli looked happy, bowed his head, and said hurriedly: "Dare to ask the general what he wants my soldiers and horses to do, but please command." ”

"Listen, I want you to be an auxiliary soldier for the time being, and together with our army, go to attack Langzhong, the city of Baoning Prefecture. If Erbu can make meritorious contributions, this town will also ask the Tang King for merit for you. Monk An said loudly.

"Good! Our army is all arranged by Mayor An, and we will be loyal to the Tang King! Ma Yuanli replied loudly.

After nearly half a day's effort, the whole army was reorganized, and Monk An gave an order, and the whole army crossed the Xiaotong River and attacked Langzhong, the city of Baoning Mansion.

Now the Tang army has turned to attack from the west, so it can completely bypass the small southern county, so as to attack the capital Langzhong directly, not to mention, now the Tang army has a sufficient advantage in strength, the defenders of the southern county of less than 1,000 people, borrow ten galls each, and do not have the courage to go out of the city to block the Tang army's attack.

The total number of people was more than 80,000 people, and the momentum was very majestic, and after a day of rapid travel, they arrived outside the city of Langzhong.

"General! In front of you is Langzhong City! ”

A Tang army guard stretched out his finger and pointed to a tall city standing on a high post in the distance, and said loudly to the chief general An Monk on the side with a happy face.

Monk An nodded, raised the clairvoyant mirror, and looked ahead for a long time, when he saw the sparse defenders and crooked banners at the head of Langzhong City from the clairvoyant mirror, Monk An's face couldn't help but smile faintly.

The ancient city of Langzhong, is a famous ancient battlefield in the Three Kingdoms period, the terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, Zhang Fei, the general of Shu Han, once led the army to garrison here, but did not expect that after a thousand years, he would also lead his troops to attack the city.

Monk An put down the clairvoyant mirror and shouted loudly: "Pass on my military order, the whole army will speed up, and you must reach the city of Langzhong as soon as possible." This town wants to make the city completely cut off from the outside world and become a real lonely city. Even more so that not a single bird can escape from this city! ”

"Order!"

Soon, the Tang army rushed to Langzhong City like a surging tide, and immediately surrounded this important town in western Yunnan like an iron bucket.

Seeing that the Tang army was so large and majestic, the defenders at the head of the city, who were already demoralized, suddenly became more and more depressed. They stood at the head of the city, trembling in their faces, completely unsure of what to do next.

And the main general in the city, Sun Kewang, the chief general of Langzhong, saw that the Tang army was so elite and looked like a rainbow, and his heart was also full of panic and loss.

What to do?

The Tang army is so powerful, and the defenders in the city are so demoralized, can this Langzhong City really be defended?

Sun Kewang was in a low mood and was speechless for a long time, he subconsciously looked at the sky from afar, and could only see that there was a round of sunset that was gradually falling westward.

The sun is setting, the twilight is vast, some remnants of the army, trapped in the lonely city, endless mountains and rivers, endless ends, for a while, Sun Kewang's heart is full of inexplicable sadness.

At this moment, in the formation of the Tang army, a line suddenly parted like a wave cracking, and a Tang army general wearing an eight-petal tasseled helmet, steel mountain pattern armor, bronze boots, and a bright red cloak was riding his horse towards the west gate of Langzhong City under the protection of a group of guards with the same armor.

Seeing the person who came dressed like this, Sun Kewang secretly said in his heart, in the eyes of this person, there is no doubt that he must be the chief general of the Tang Army.

He guessed correctly, the general of the Tang Army was the monk Chang'an, the second town of the Tang Army. Now, surrounded by a group of guards, he will soon be a stone's throw away from the West Gate.

At this time, one of the guards next to him pulled his neck and shouted to the city, "Hey! Listen, people in the city! My head of the family, Monk An, wants to talk to the lord of the city, please go to the general quickly! ”

Hearing the shouts of the Tang army, the defenders at the head of the city became more and more panicked, and they subconsciously focused their helpless and panicked eyes on Sun Kewang, the main general who frowned. 2k reading web
