Yingzhou Prefecture governs Ruyin, don't General Li Chengshan is patrolling the city, the enemy army is coming, and the army is about to come to the city, claiming to have 100,000 people, and the Ruyin defenders are only thousands, and there are not many people in the city, if he wants to defend the city, it is not easy.

However, foreign aid is insufficient, and it will take a while to wait for strong reinforcements, and Ruyin can only rely on garrisons to defend at present.

After the defeat of Guangling, the official army was defeated like a mountain, and the Yingzhou assassin who went out with the army was not in the chaos of the army, and Li Chengshan was ordered to retreat to Ruyin to station, so he became the highest-ranking official in charge of affairs in Ruyin City, and now the enemy is coming, he is determined to live and die with Ruyin.

There is a huge disparity between the enemy and our forces, but Ruyin must not be lost, because Ruyin is located on the bank of the Yingshui River, once occupied by the enemy, then the opponent's army can go south along Yingshui and directly attack Shouchun, a key place in Huainan.

The north and the south have been fighting for hundreds of years, Shouchun is the key place to guard the entrance of Yingshui from the north - Yingkou, and is located in the west of the vortex (vortex water into Huaikou), and the bell that guards the vortex mouth has become a horn, whether it is the northern army going south, or the southern army going north, Shouchun must be controlled in his hands.

Now, Hezhou Ruyin south of Shouchun has fallen, if Yingzhou Ruyin, north of Shouchun and upstream of Yingshui, is also lost, where can Shouchun still be able to hold under the attack of the north and south.

As soon as Shouchun is lost, Zhongli will be a lonely city, and it can no longer be defended.

Ruyin's gains and losses are related to whether the officers and troops can gain a firm foothold in Huaishui, and Li Chengshan sees this very clearly.

If it was the past, he would shrink his forces and stick to the city for reinforcements, and the enemy who came today was the commander of King Yi (King of Xiyang) Yuwenwen, the other party only took a few days to take Hezhou Ruyin, and today to take Yingzhou Ruyin, how many days can he last?

Wang Yuwenwen, is the son-in-law of today's son's biological father and the prince of the country, since the second half of last year, he has a brilliant record, not only sneaking up on the hanging gourd, but also blocking the army of more than 100,000 prime ministers in the lonely city, and then breaking the main force of the official army in the battle of Shaoling, Li Chengshan knows that it is very difficult for him to defeat this person.

There is a huge disparity between the enemy and our forces, but this does not mean that he will surrender without a fight, Yuwenwen will defend the lonely city with a lone army, and Li Chengshan will also defend the lonely city of Ruyin with a lone army.

Smoke and dust rose on the outskirts of the southern part of the city, and several cavalrymen with banners on their backs approached Ruyin, and the defenders at the head of the city were a little nervous, but then relaxed.

The flag is a long strip of flag tied behind the soldiers, which is generally the mark of scouts and heralds, distinguishing it from ordinary cavalry, and these cavalrymen who are close to Ruyin are the scouts sent by Li Chengshan to guard the south, and now they have detected the enemy situation and rushed back to restore their lives.

After the scouts entered the city, they reported the military situation they had explored, and as Li Chengshan expected, Yuwenwen's army had already lined up and approached Ruyin, it seemed that they were going to surround Ruyin, and the opportunity to break the enemy was approaching.

During this time, according to the scouts, Li Chengshan learned that the army assembled by Yuwenwen was actually a rabble, except for a small number of main forces that could fight, the rest of the soldiers and horses were all some clan soldiers and barbarians, among which the barbarians were the most.

Soldiers, not the more the better, especially those armies with uneven quality of soldiers and horses, the more soldiers, the easier it is to collapse when fighting.

In the battle of Weishui between Qin and Jin in that year, the size of the Qin army was known to be one million, even if the forward army that arrived in Weishui had a lot of troops, and the Jin army was pitifully small in comparison, but the Jin army made a little trick to let the former Qin army collapse without a fight.

At that time, the Qin army was mixed with a large number of soldiers with very poor quality, and it only took a few rumors for the soldiers to turn around and run away, so the battle of Qin-Jin and Huangshui was a good example, and today's Yuwenwen army, the situation is not much better.

Not to mention the clan soldiers, Li Chengshan has dealt with barbarians from all over the country, and knows that no matter where the barbarians come from, in addition to the large number of people, they are actually waste, not to mention the empty consumption of money and food, and when the two armies face off, there is more than enough success and more defeat.

And now, Yu Wenwen didn't know what kind of means he used, what kind of benefits he promised to the barbarian chieftains, and he gathered so many barbarian soldiers, claiming to be 100,000 people, but in fact, they were rabble.

These barbarian soldiers do not subordinate each other, do not know the golden drum banner in the army, and the barbarian chiefs are wary of each other, and they will flee when they get to the slightest disadvantage on the battlefield, where will Li Chengshan take it seriously.

After a while, the wilderness in the south of the city was dusty, Li Chengshan looked through the clairvoyant mirror, and saw that the southern horizon was like a sea of flags, and the black army was approaching Ruyin.

The invading enemy was huge, stretching horizontally for miles from east to west, but in fact the formation was scattered, the military appearance of each unit was chaotic, and the difference in marching speed between them was obvious.

It seems that the banner is like a sea is very spectacular, but in fact, these barbarians do not stand like each other, they do not walk out of shape, marching in the wide field, and the teams themselves will stop and walk from time to time, and the barbarians in front and behind are crowded together, not to mention that the various departments are blocking each other's way.

If it is said that the enemy deliberately messed up the formation to show weakness, how could it be so realistic.

This situation is obviously because the quality of the barbarian soldiers is too poor, and even the marching speed of their own team cannot be coordinated, not to mention the combined attack of all parts, the march is like this, and the performance after the large formation can only be worse.

The scout probed the enemy's situation clearly, the other party was still a few miles away from Ruyin, and the formation was still chaotic, Li Chengshan immediately made a decision, walked down the city wall, came to a clearing, picked up a bowl of wine, and said loudly to the dead soldiers who had already been ready:

"Heroes! Dry this bowl of wine with Ben General, and then break the enemy with Ben General! ”

"General, please!"

The dead soldier who was about to follow Li Chengshan out of the city to kill the enemy shouted loudly, drank all the wine in the bowl, and then threw the bowl to the ground with a loud sound.

The city gate was opened, and Li Chengshan personally led 800 dead soldiers out of the city on horseback, and rushed towards the enemy army in front of him like a dark cloud, although the enemy army claimed to have 100,000 people, but in fact, there should be no more than 30,000 or 40,000 people with the army and civilians.

This group of rabble, Li Chengshan thought that only one of them could cause a rout, and the rout that turned around and ran backwards would inevitably lead to a larger-scale rout.

Zhou Guo is still black, the uniform and flag are black, the team with the black banner is naturally the main force of the opponent's battle, rushing over is just looking for death, Li Chengshan wants to rush, it is the barbarian army with various flags, and the target he has selected now is where the large white flag is located.

These brute soldiers are simply waste, even Yuwen Wen can't "turn stones into gold" in a short period of time, Li Chengshan feels that as long as he rushes, he can crush the other party.

The defeat was like a mountain, no matter how powerful Yuwenwen was, in the face of the impact of the rout, he could not stabilize the formation, and could only watch the rout happen.

If the timing is right, Li Chengshan doesn't mind taking the risk of attacking the enemy's main formation and beating Yuwen Wen to the ground.

Even if he can't break into his own formation, he can still stir up this rabble and scatter it in all directions.

It will take several days for Yuwenwen to gather the rout, reorganize the formation, and then encircle Ruyin, and the victory in the first battle will inevitably boost the morale of the Ruyin army and people.

This is Li Chengshan's strategy of defending the city by attacking instead of defending, he has confidence in the dead soldiers who follow him out of the city to kill the enemy, and he looks at the enemy team that began to panic in front of him, and sneers in his heart:

I don't have many soldiers, but one army is enough to stop 100,000 enemies!
