Volume 2: Waves Chapter 59: The Decisive Battle
swore to sweep away Hu Nu without regard for his body, and 5,000 mink brocade lost his dust. Poor and uncertain riverside bones, like a person in a spring boudoir dream! ββLongxi Xing
The battle array has always been cruel, so the sage has a saying, and the ominous weapon of the soldier has to be used as a last resort.
In the ninth year of the Great Cause, on July 16, Gao Si led more than 5,000 German troops to Luoyang City.
The fighting between the two sides has reached its most intense moment.
The army of Laihu'er came against Luoshui and suppressed Yang Jishan's department.
Yang Xuanting's troops attacked Luoyang, day and night.
Yang Xuangan's troops fought desperately with Wei Wensheng's Tiger Army, fighting ten battles a day. Although the Chu army was victorious, the Tiger Ben army was defeated but not defeated, but its combat strength slowly recovered, and it became more and more difficult to fight.
"Virtue, is there a good plan?" Li Mi also saw the crisis of the situation, although he regarded Gao Si as a potential opponent, but at the moment of life and death, he had to put aside his worries and temporarily join hands to fight the enemy.
"Didn't you make your strategy clear? Bring this matter up again, roll the armor to the west, go all out to seize Guanzhong, stick to Tongguan, first become the trend of the east and west, and then try to last for a long time. β
Outstanding people either have the big picture in their own minds, or they know how to judge the big picture.
"It's a pity that most of the generals under Xuangan's command are in Luoyang, and they are abandoned, how can everyone be willing?" Li Mi sighed and said with a sneer: "Chongde is slightly the same as what I can see as a hero. It is necessary to make Xuangan make up his mind, march westward and seize Guanzhong. β
Another person was overjoyed when he heard this, clapped his hands and said, "Two really handsome people, this strategy is very good!" β
Regard it as Li Zixiong.
The opportunity could not be lost, and at that moment, the three of them jointly admonished Yang Xuangan, withdrew from the siege of the eastern capital, and supported the troops to the west to collect Guanzhong.
Yang Xuangan smiled and said, "Don't worry, stay in the last battle." If you win, you will go to the eastern capital. If it is not grateful, it will not be too late for the west to enter the Guanzhong. β
On July 20, after a short repair, the Sui army and the Chu army set up a position at the foot of Beibi Mountain, and agreed to hold a decisive battle on the second day.
The day before the decisive battle.
Gao Si and Han Shi'e came to the gate of Shangchun.
Gao Sili was still a little uneasy, secretly blaming his eldest brother Yang Xuan for feeling confused, using the military strategy to make a decisive decision, how could he hesitate in the general direction and pursue a temporary victory.
When he arrived outside the city, after watching for a while, he led his army into the main camp. Yang Wanshuo greeted him, the youngest of the six brothers of the Yang family, who had the closest relationship with Yang Min, and had a good attitude towards Gao Si, and explained with a sad face the troops and habitual methods of Fan Zigai left behind in the city.
When they arrived at the big tent, they sat down with their priorities and began to talk about the use of troops.
Yang Xuangan's layout was as follows, the main force of the Chu army's headquarters, plus Yang Xuanting's partial division, totaled 70,000, and went all out to attack the Tiger Ben army in the camp of Jinguyuan.
Gao Si's newly built Gui German army, as well as the withdrawn Yang Jishan Division, totaling more than 16,000, monitored the defenders of Luoyang City to avoid being attacked from both sides.
On the other hand, it is necessary to guard against the landing operation of Laihu'er.
Seeing that everyone was about to arrive, Gao Si's face sank, and he ordered in a cold voice: "Yang Jishan, Yang Minxing listen to the order!" β
"The last general!" Even if they were reluctant, they had to obey the order.
"Each led two thousand men and horses, and held the left flank, and was not allowed to retreat half a step. Disobedient, slash! β
"Yes, General!" The two bowed their heads.
"Li Zixiong and Han Shi'e listen to orders!"
"The last general!" Li Zixiong was stunned, reacted and immediately listened to the order, and Han Shi'e did the same.
"You two, each with 800 elite cavalry, lie on the left and right sides of the camp, and when they hear the order, they can kill it, directly hit the officers and soldiers, and take the head of Fan Zigai."
"Liuzhuang, He Huailiang listen to the order!"
"The last general!" Liu Zhuang and He Huailiang were listed.
"You and others will lead two thousand men and horses, stick to the right flank, and if you dare to retreat, you will be decided!"
"Yes!"
"A self-unified Chinese army of 5,000 will face Fan Zigai head-on, and the decisive battle will be fought tomorrow!"
Since then, there are only four or five hundred people left in the battalion to guard the family and baggage.
"Li Baiyao, Wei Chigong! The camp was handed over to the two. β
Inside Luoyang City.
Fan Zigai stood in front of a pass at the head of the city, and opened his eyes to check the changes in the enemy camp below the city.
After a moment, the general Song Jing stepped forward and responded respectfully: "Handsome! β
Fan Zigai didn't get to the point, and said with a smile: "Weishan, have you seen the changes in the enemy army outside the city?"
Fan Zigai, the word Huazong, a native of Lujiang, successively served as Taishou, Thorn History, Guanglu Doctor, Dongdu Stayer and other prominent official positions.
And Song Jing, the word Weishan, a native of Wuwei County, the two of them are fellow villagers, seven feet long, brave and powerful, and the official worships the captain of Changshui, all of whom are generals from Jiangdong.
Song Jing looked over, and saw that looking down from the city, the firelight of thousands of seats was connected, and several coincided with the stars in the sky, and there was an indescribable slaughter.
No more can see anything else.
But I heard Fan Zigai recalling: "Back then, the Sui Dynasty destroyed Nan Chen, swept through Jiangdong, and the imperial army went down the river, killing within a thousand miles, ten rooms and nine emptiness.
At that time, I was the general of the Sui army, marching into Zongyang (now Tongling, Anhui), a hundred miles of depression, the smoke was cut off, and the land of fragrant Zizi was almost the same as the wasteland. Only near the county seat did I see some remnants of the villagers, but they were all on the verge of starvation. β
The white bones are exposed in the wild, and there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles. The people are left behind, and the thought breaks people's intestines.
These are all caused by the plundering of Yang Su, the commander of the Chen Army!
I recruited exiles, appeased the people, opened the emperor and worked hard, and rested with the people for 30 years, so that we have today's weather.
Siren has passed away, and some personal enmity, the old man has long forgotten it.
But his son Yang Xuangan rebelled, rebelled, and destroyed the great cause of the saint. Kill it!
The war book of the thief army has been issued, and the decisive battle will be fought tomorrow! β
Song Jing heard the words and said loudly: "The last general is willing to take the lead." β
"Don't be reckless!" Another high-ranking official, Liu Zixiang scolded.
Then he showed a look of remembrance, looked at the camp under the city with deep eyes, and said leisurely: "Yang Su has been tired for more than ten years, and he knows his ability, and he uses soldiers to select people, and he is unstoppable!"
I look at the evil spirit in this camp, and it is not trivial to become a red tiger. β
Speaking of this, Fan Zigai stared at the Chu army camp under the city, motionless.
After a long time, Fan Zigai laughed and said: "Although the old man is old, he will not underestimate the young hero. Moreover, come to protect the child and send the son to report, the general under the city is the 'sick tiger' who harmed Xiao Moke's father and son, and he must be killed tomorrow! β
The words were full of cold killing intent, which was to justify the name of the southern generals.
Song Jing made a military order and said, "Obey!" I will cut off this fang's head and give it to the general! β
Kanayaen.
Tens of thousands of troops were stationed, and the large and small barracks seemed to be close to each other. During the day, the wind blows the flag of the Sui army, and the scene rises and falls one after another like a golden sea, and you can see the magnificent scene of the army standing everywhere.
"General, Qu Tutong's army has sneaked ten miles away, and it will be ready to fight tomorrow." At this time, Xue Wanche said fiercely: "If you don't fight back, you will be punished by the Holy Lord." β
Wei Wensheng stared at the bright and yellow banners lined up in the camp, looked into the distance again, made up his mind, and said, "Then let's fight tomorrow!" β
Xue Wanche was overjoyed and immediately conveyed an order to reorganize his troops and horses in preparation for tomorrow's battle.
The next day, in the morning.
Gao Si unfolded the army and waited for the Sui army to leave the city.
At this moment, a scout came from afar, turned over and saluted: "Report!" The Sui army went out of the city. β
Gao Si looked at it and couldn't help laughing: "God help me, don't waste me to show weakness and lure the enemy." β
Hu Sizheng was surprised and said: "General, the army left behind in the city is coming out of the city to fight. β
ββ¦β¦ Array, ready to attack! Gao Si said coldly.
When Song Jing walked towards the front of the formation, the officers and soldiers shouted calmly and rhythmically: "Weishan! Weishan! β
Almost at the same time, the vanguard of the Sui army also shouted, like a bolt of lightning, illuminating the entire battlefield.
The back of Gao Si's horizontal sword immediately has a kind of indignation that looks at Bahuang Liuhe. He danced a sword flower on his chest and shouted: "Beat the drum, let the dog officers and soldiers taste our strength!" β
As soon as the military order was urged, the army rushed towards the Sui army.
"Put! Put! Put! β
It's too late, it's fast, and the rain of arrows from the Sui army has already arrived.
Although the Chu army erected a shield array, it still couldn't stop the heavy arrows. The wooden shield only blocked some of the arrows of the official army, and there were still many arrows falling from the sky, which were piercing the shoulders or chests of the soldiers of the Chu army.
The blood-stained robe is red through the armor.
The arrows of the Sui soldiers were much more powerful than the shields of the Chu army, and in three rounds of arrow rain, hundreds of soldiers were shot.
This rain of arrows made the Sui soldiers in the array cheer in unison, after all, it was the officers and soldiers who won a slight victory, which was a great boost to morale.
Before the cheers fell, when they were about to engage in short combat, countless short guns suddenly flew out of the Chu army's array!
In the blink of an eye, the short spear shot in front of the charging Sui army, and the officers and soldiers were almost defenseless, only to hear countless Chu soldiers shouting: "Kill the officers, kill the officers!" β
In the Chu army array, there seemed to be countless lightning bolts, and one after another throwing spears came out of their hands.
The hapless Sui soldiers let out a scream, barely had time to react, and were pierced through the chest by a throwing gun and nailed to the ground.
Gao Si took the general flag forward for a distance, and suddenly shouted: "Attack!" β
Like a thunderbolt in the air, the fighting spirit of the German army suddenly burst out, and more than 10,000 elites rushed out like a tide.
Ten thousand people were slashed and rampant all over the world.
At this moment, the return to Germany makes people feel like a forest slowly advancing, unstoppable.
Those cyan cloaks glittered in the rising sun, making the entire team like sharp arrows, piercing straight into the Sui army's formation.
With the charge of the German army, Fan Zigai gave an order, and the 20,000 Sui troops who left the city had already rushed up.
The two armies fought fiercely, and for the time being, there was no winner.
However, on the other hand, after the sailor who came to protect the children landed, he did not charge as ordered.
Looking at the fighting army in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
Those who retreat from the battle are beheaded, this is the military order of the father. It is also a capital offense not to charge with the army. He slapped his horse a few steps forward and said, "General Zhou Lang, why don't you charge?" β
Zhou Fashang was staring at the Guide army that rushed into the Sui army's formation, turned his head, and said, "Can the charge completely annihilate the thief army now?" β
Let's take a look at the other side.
The charge of the German army was like a towering giant tree, and it seemed to grind anything in its way into powder.
In the face of the counterattack of the Sui army, although the stamina was indeed insufficient, the army had hidden changes. The army that was the first to attack was like an ancient bloody altar that threw itself into it as a sacrifice.
Lai Cheng said a little suspiciously: "They still have a backhand?"
Zhou Fashang said: "You led people to outflank the rear formation, and a certain family attacked its camp. β
Knock knock!
The drums of war were like thunder, and with the order of Zhou Fa, the German army was completely encircled.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Li Baiyao set fire to the camp and retreated with his family.
Wei Chigong commanded the rest of the men and horses to desperately block the attack.
Gao Si swung his sword like rain, and the seven-star sword was full of blood.
Fan Zigai didn't move in this formation Seeing that there were fewer and fewer people around him, he could only grit his teeth and continue to rush.
"Rush to the right!" In the roar, the army turned, and the formation inevitably loosened.
"The thief is poor!" Fan Zigai's eyes were sharp, and he ordered the whole army to press on it in laughter.
"Kill the past, kill the past!" Gao Si seems crazy, but in fact, he can't help but wait and see the changes in the luck of the officers and soldiers.
"General, general, I can't stand it." Lieutenant Li Min's department was the first to retreat.
"Those who shake the hearts of the army, kill!" Gao Si was furious, and with a sword cut off his head and held it in his hand.
"Hold on a little longer!" Turn around and shout, and plunge into the killing.
As the offensive positions of the officers and troops were in full swing, the defense inevitably loosened.
"Iron Cavalry Dispatch, Kill!" The high command flag waved.
Han Shi'e and Li Zixiong took the opportunity and each led two heavily armored iron cavalry to kill from the left and right sides, directly attacking the weak point of the Sui army's formation.
Boom - 1,600 armor cavalry with unstoppable momentum crashed into the Sui army's main array.
Life and death, victory and defeat, everything is just a blink of an eye!
