Chapter Twenty-Six: Defeat is like a mountain of defeat
Chapter Twenty-Six: Defeat is like a mountain of defeat
Huge balls of blood stained the east bank of the Sand River with large patches of red.
A corpse with no one to collect was lying on the road.
One after another, the red flags were brought down, and then they were trampled by countless horses' hooves. Black flags swaggered south.
Zuo Liangyu is much stronger than Ding Qirui, at least Zuo Liangyu has the people of the palace, and it took several hours to delay the army before Zuo Liangyu left the broken descendants and slaughtered them.
Li Zicheng even felt that since the battle of Zhuxian Town, this battle was the most difficult.
However, no matter how difficult it is, it will pass, and the battle below is a massacre, and Zuo Liangyu will not be able to organize an army of the same specifications, so he will be cut off for himself.
The last two words are easy to say. But in fact, it is to exchange their own lives for the lives of others, how many people are willing to do this? Therefore, if you are not loyal and brave, elite soldiers cannot be responsible, it is not that Li Zicheng looks down on Zuo Liangyu, how many such troops can there be under Zuo Liangyu? It would be nice to have one.
"Come on." Li Zicheng shouted.
"The end will be." Li Guo said.
"You're in this area." Li Zicheng said.
"Yes." Li Guo gritted his teeth, as if he remembered some bad scene.
"Manly man, where you fall, you get up." Li Zicheng said: "Go, I ordered you to be the vanguard, chasing Zuo Liangyu, whether you can avenge the defeat last time depends on yourself." ”
Li Guo was overjoyed and said, "The last general will definitely bring Zuo Liangyu's head." ”
Li Zicheng said: "Okay, I'll wait." ”
Li Guo took his own cavalry and the horse team allocated to him by Li Zicheng, a total of 3,000 cavalry, and chased south non-stop.
As Li Zicheng expected, all he saw along the way were some guerrillas, and they didn't have the courage to reflexively fight. What could stop Li Guo's march was not Zuo Liangyu's remaining resistance, but the road that had fallen into disrepair, and all kinds of baggage, food, weapons, gold and silver that were abandoned on the road. Wait a minute.
No matter how much Li Guo emphasized military discipline, there were still soldiers who could not resist the temptation.
"Father, what should I do?" Zuo Mengeng, who was covered in fat, was already panicked, how had he seen it, such a situation, coupled with poor horseback riding skills, bumped all the way, physically and mentally tortured, and almost fainted.
At this moment, the pursuers came again, and they were even more frightened that the three souls lost their seven souls.
"Shut up." Zuo Liangyu was furious, he didn't have the heart to talk to his stupid son at this moment. He also knew that the current situation was not good, so he gritted his teeth and said: "Pass the order, and all departments will throw off the infantry team." ”
The proportion of horse steps of the officers and soldiers is generally three steps and seven steps, even if it is Zuo Liangyu's department, it is probably this ratio. And most of the cavalry of each department are the families of the generals, and with these old foundations, although the losses are larger, there is still the capital of Dongshan.
Now I am forcibly pulling the foot team to walk together, I'm afraid no one will be able to walk.
Before Zuo Liangyu's order was passed down, he himself dispatched the cavalry of his headquarters, about four or five thousand horsemen, threw off the baggage, the infantry team, and went south without saying a word.
After only three miles, the front team suddenly stopped. Zuo Liangyu got the letter, saying that there was a long trench in front, Zuo Liangyu was taken aback, and immediately rushed to the front, but saw a long trench winding in front of him, about two or three zhang wide, if you give Zuo Liangyu a little time, whether it is to build a bridge or fill in the past, it is very easy. It is not difficult for one person or two people to abandon their horses and climb over, but it is unlikely that thousands of cavalry will rush through here.
But at this moment, Zuo Liangyu has less time.
"My lord, help." One of the generals threw himself on the ground and said, "My lord, a tiger is behind you." ”
Zuo Liangyu looked around, 10,000 or 20,000 people were trapped on the north side of this long trench, the cavalry was fine, the infantry all lost their armor, sitting on the ground with their eyes blank, if it wasn't for the breathing, Zuo Liangyu would have thought they were a dead man.
However, Zuo Liangyu also understood why these soldiers were like this.
Their spirits are broken.
"These soldiers can't be used anymore?" Zuo Liangyu's eyes were slightly red, not excited, but murderous, and said: "Come on, pass the order, and fill the trench without horses." ”
"Passing on the general's order, there is no horse to fill in the trench. Fill in the trenches for those without horses. ”
Some foot soldiers who escaped from Li Guo's knife after a lot of hardships never thought that they would face such a situation, but they ran for more than ten miles under extreme panic, and they were already physically exhausted and sore all over, where were the opponents of these cavalry.
For a while, countless foot soldiers, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, fell into the long trench, but in a moment and a half, a path was filled.
Zuo Liangyu didn't say a word, and took his headquarters through the long trench and headed south.
But the passage formed by this corpse is not spacious, and from time to time someone slides down from both sides, filling the width of this bridge again.
"What a Zuo Liangyu." Li Xin looked at it from a distance and said, "Ruthless enough." ”
Li Mu said: "The eldest brother also thinks too highly of Zuo Liangyu, and it is simply inhumane to do this." These soldiers, after the defeat, still followed him unabandoningly, but he did so, in the future, who else would work for Zuo Liangyu. ”
"Yes, it's just that Zuo Liangyu doesn't do this, do you think he still has tomorrow?" Li Xin said.
It happened so suddenly, so suddenly that Li Xin barely reacted. He was sent by King Chuang to cut off the back road of the official army, and the men and horses he brought were the subordinates of his younger brother Li Mu and the Red Lady. Speaking of people, there are not many people, about a few thousand
However, Li Xin's prestige on the ground in Henan is really good, and it can be said that all the magistrates in Henan are Li Xin's life, and they are all local poles in their hometowns, and their control over their hometowns is much tighter than that of ordinary officials. Therefore, they were very grateful to Li Xin, and for a time Li Xin's reputation in Henan was almost no less than that of Yuan Shizhong.
Li Xin gave an order, and the villages on the east bank of the Shahe River came out one after another, and overnight, a long trench was dug out, in fact, this long trench was not very long, only Zuo Liangyu made a few miles of detours, and he could bypass it. And Li Xin and his soldiers lay in ambush nearby, waiting for Zuo Liangyu to make a detour. Once Zuo Liangyu made a detour, Li Xin came out from the side, blocking Zuo Liangyu for a while, and the team of people and horses behind came over, so that Zuo Liangyu had no way to go to the sky and no way to enter the ground.
But he didn't want Zuo Liangyu to use such ruthless means.
Fill the trenches with human lives.
Cracked Li Xin's ambush at once.
At this moment, Li Xin secretly regretted that he did not snipe directly on the other side. Li Xin knew what the quality of the soldiers under his command was, although Li Xin's department expanded with the expansion of the camp, but Li Xin focused more on assisting the king to seize the world, rather than concentrating on training the army. Li Xin was afraid that if he blocked it, not only would he not be able to stop Zuo Liangyu, but he would lose himself.
It's just that the current situation, he can only try his best to remedy it.
"Pass the order, beat the gongs and drums, create momentum, and let Zuo Liangyu know that we are here." Li Xin said.
"Knock knock." The drums burst out from the east, and it seemed that countless banners were erected in an instant, but the largest one was the character "Li".
Even if Zuo Liangyu could see that the other party was a little bluffing, but the soldiers under his command had already become frightened birds, what could he do by himself, he couldn't do anything, there was only one word, that is, escape, desperately escape. Flee in the dark.
Zuo Liangyu ran for a whole day before he stopped, and then gathered the soldiers and horses, but found that the horses and horses did not add up to 10,000 people. For a while, Zuo Liangyu wanted to cry without tears.
These tens of thousands of elites, but they have been accumulated over the past ten years with one hand and one foot, and such a battle has come to naught. Zuo Liangyu was not only sad, but also worried that the imperial court would end up like He Renlong because of my weakened strength. Thinking of this, Zuo Liangyu suddenly became anxious.
Without saying a word, he began to recruit troops, whether it was a pole or a thief, as long as he was willing to hang the banner of Zuo Liangyu, anyway, Zuo Liangyu used these messy soldiers not to fight with the righteous army at all, but to show strength to the court.
