Chapter 721: Poke in the Back, Burn Grain and Grass

Under the head-on confrontation, the light cavalry was like paper paste in front of the heavy armored iron cavalry, one by one they were knocked up and down, and in an instant they were trampled into flesh by iron hooves, and no one could stop them in front of this steel mobile fortress.

The cavalry in the Wei army's formation flew up in dominoes once and then fell, and the rows of cadres and heavy armored iron cavalry killed the entire Wei army's Chinese army with unparalleled momentum and collision power.

Blood stained the earth red, and shattered banners and twisted weapons became ornaments.

Bu Liuguli stared at this apocalyptic scene with wide eyes and disbelief, the iron cavalry of the Qianjun army had rushed to the city wall to keep up and lost their speed, and the light cavalry behind and on both sides had also followed, at this time the Qianjun had not much room to move, he immediately ordered like crazy, "The left and right wings are attacked, to this king, kill them, kill them!" ”

The Chinese army was completely annihilated and conceded that Liuguli was desperate, this battle was too important to him, once he visited the shrine, he was afraid that he would not even be able to go back to Chang'an, not to mention that the soldiers and horses that remained under Tongguan City and Hedong would definitely be swallowed up by the leopard, so he must not lose this battle.

The order was conveyed through a few desolate and melodious horn sounds, and the Wei cavalry in the left military fortress that had long been ready to attack rushed out after the camp gate was wide open, and rushed straight towards the flank of the dry army.

On the right side of the river embankment, Buliu Gulongcheng heard the sound of the horn, and he remembered the order given to him by his eldest brother in the morning, his 3,000 cavalry could not be used easily, mainly to prevent the cadres from crossing the river and killing them, and at this time the situation of the entire army was extremely critical, if the cadres were not attacked at this time, the cadres would directly attack the command platform of Buliu Guli.

"No matter, let's lift the crisis on the command platform first!" Bu Liugu Longcheng made an instant decision and shouted at the three thousand soldiers and horses behind him, "Follow me to the middle to kill the army in the middle!" ”

"Killβ€”" The Wei army in the barracks rushed out.

"Chong-" The Wei army on the river also rushed over.

At this time, they had lost speed, and they found that the two wings were about to be attacked, and the generals and colonels immediately commanded their men and horses to move again, but the scope of action was limited.

Zhao Junsheng, who was commanding in the rear of the cadre army, frowned when he saw it, and ordered, "Order, the left flank will send 3,000 people to reinforce along the river embankment!" ”

The flag began to wave.

When the cavalry generals of the left wing saw this, they immediately ordered 3,000 men and horses to rush towards the Wei army along the river embankment.

The remnants of the Wei army's soldiers and horses and the cadres had been completely mixed together, and for a time swords and swords, blood was splashed, arrows were flying, and people and horses were constantly falling and dying.

Although Zhao Junsheng had already sent 3,000 troops from the left flank to reinforce them, the battlefield was only so large that no amount of soldiers and horses could be stuffed into it at this time, and the consequence of forcibly stuffing it was to make the cavalry completely lose speed.

At this time, the cavalry on both sides had been in an all-round melee, and the cavalry was still riding on horseback, and had lost its speed and became infantry, slashing each other, without any tactics at all.

At this moment, a large number of shouts of killing suddenly came from the rear of the cadre army, and Zhao Junsheng and the ministers accompanying the army looked behind them and saw a large number of Wei infantry rushing over with all their strength with weapons.

"Buliu Guli really left a back hand!" Zhao Junsheng and the ministers accompanying the army couldn't help muttering in their hearts.

The rear army was commanded by Lu Shuang, who had led 3,000 cavalry to meet it at this time.

Attacking from behind was the 5,000 infantry led by Pingliang Cheng Taishou Gao Wende, and the military formation was very scattered when charging, and in fact, the infantry could not maintain a neat formation when charging.

Lu Shuang led the team to attack in a very timely manner, and opened a distance of two or three miles from this team, and at such a distance, the cavalry of the cadre army in this formation did not need to worry about the Wei infantry being able to cross Lu Shuang's men and horses to attack their backs.

Gao Wende was doomed to tragedy, if his 5,000 men and horses were cavalry, there would be a dozen, but unfortunately these 5,000 men were infantry, and the right was in a scattered formation and launched a hedge with the 3,000 cavalry in a tight formation.

The two sides were still separated by hundreds of steps, and the Wei infantry lost the courage to continue charging, their speed slowed down, and soon stopped, and the Wei infantry in front watched Lu Shuang rush over at high speed with a neat cavalry, the momentum was extremely arrogant, and they were all frightened to the face of the earth, and they trembled.

"Run-" I don't know who shouted, and the Wei infantry in front of me turned around and ran.

Gao Wende shouted, "Come back, come back to the official, no one is allowed to run, no one is allowed to run!" ”

No one listens to him, everyone knows that whoever doesn't run at this time is a fool, unless it's a pig's foot and a darling, the kind that can't be killed no matter how you fight to survive. Ordinary people wanted to use a few thousand loose infantry that had lost their courage against three thousand cavalry who were in a tight formation and rushed at high speed, but there was no chance of survival.

Gao Wende saw that most of the soldiers in front of him had turned around and fled, and immediately shouted, "Those who retreat from the battle are killed!" ”

Some of his own soldiers immediately beat their horses and went out, caught a few fleeing soldiers, and slashed them with their swords, killing more than a dozen deserters in a row, but they could not stop the rout from spreading.

The might of the cavalry rushing over with a neat formation of three thousand was too strong, and the loose Wei infantry simply did not have the courage to face this overwhelming impact, whoever went would die!

"Lord Taishou, it's no good, the brothers can't stand it, the defeat is like a mountain, let's go, if you don't leave, it's too late!" The master anxiously persuaded Gao Wende.

Gao Wende shouted, "If the official doesn't leave, the official is here to sneak attack the enemy, how can he be chased away by the enemy instead?" You're all going to kill me, you're going to kill me! ”

The master was in a hurry, and he didn't care about anything else, and immediately ordered a few personal soldiers, "You are still stunned, why don't you quickly protect Lord Taishou and retreat!" ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" The soldiers agreed, stepped forward and snatched the reins from Gao Wende's hand, led the horse and ran.

Lu Shuang led 3,000 cavalry to rush and chase with chest tightness, the Wei infantry suffered heavy casualties, and some people ran crazy for a few miles and couldn't run, so they knelt on the ground and picked up their hands and surrendered after losing their weapons.

The smarter deserters all chose to surrender on their knees after losing the physical strength to escape, only those who were stupid were still desperately running on two legs, and these people were chased by the cavalry of the cadre army and slashed or shot to death.

Zhao Junsheng did not deliberately pay attention to the battle in the rear, he believed that Lu Shuang was more than enough to deal with 5,000 infantry with 3,000 cavalry when he was prepared.

At this time, Zhao Junsheng was a little summoned in his heart, the Wei army Buliu Guli had several troops, and there were still 10,000 horses on his side that did not move, but these 10,000 horses could not participate in the battle because of the narrow terrain of the battlefield.

"What time is it?" Zhao Junsheng asked the ministers around him with an anxious expression.

Shen Hui next to him glanced at the hourglass and said, "Back to the king, it's time to go!" ”

"Li Yuande and Wang Yu, why haven't they started yet?"

Shen Hui arched his hand, "The king doesn't need to worry, if something happens, we should have gotten the news a long time ago, and now there is no news is good news, the king still waits with peace of mind!" ”

Zhao Junsheng said angrily, "Wait with peace of mind? You put it lightly, how many people die every moment on this battlefield? If they launched a moment earlier, many fewer officers and men of our army would have died, do you understand? ”

Shen Hao didn't dare to speak.

Suddenly, there were a large number of shouts and killings in the Wei army barracks, and everyone looked and saw thick smoke billowing and flames rising to the sky in the Wei army barracks.

Bu Liuguli, who was on the command platform, heard the movement and looked at it, and suddenly her face changed drastically: "It's not good, the cadres are really scheming, and they actually quietly entered our army's camp, Lao Wu, you quickly lead the troops to reinforcements, you must save the food!" ”

Buliu Guni looked at it and said loudly, "Big brother, this battlefield is densely packed with people, and the two sides are fighting together, and they are almost unable to distinguish between the enemy and me, and the younger brother can't get by even if he leads the troops!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that the fire and smoke in the Wei army camp were even bigger, and all that burned was the location of the hoarding of grain and grass.

Step 6 Guli muttered, "It's over, it's overΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·"

Sure enough, the Wei generals who were fighting with the cadres saw that a large number of cadres had been killed in their camp, and the granaries and forage were all set on fire.

The morale of the Wei army fell in an instant, the momentum of the cadres was great, the momentum of the two sides was one and the other, the losses of the Wei generals were getting bigger and bigger, and some Wei generals were timid and ran in the direction of Pingliang City.

As soon as this opening was opened, it was like a river embankment bursting and flooding, and it was out of control, and the pressure of the cadres was lightened, and the generals and colonels of the army shouted one after another, "Follow me, killβ€”"

"Kill-" A large number of peripheral cadres and soldiers have been unable to participate in the battle, and at this time, seeing that the Wei army was weakened and fled in the direction of Pingliang City, they immediately began to wave their flags and shout.

"Resist me, resist me!" Bu Liu Guli shouted from the command platform, this army was defeated like a mountain, and it couldn't stop the rout and escape no matter what.

"Big brother, let's retreat from the south gate and enter the city first, let's go quickly, don't be killed by the cadres, it's too late to leave!" Buliu Guni shouted, stepped forward and pulled the eldest brother away.

"I'm not leaving, I'm not defeated yet, stop them quickly, let him resist, the arrogance of the cadres won't last long!" Buliu Guli shouted and struggled, but the soldiers did not listen to him, so he walked down the command platform and sent the war horse to escort him to the south gate.

Along the way, Buliu Guni saw that his brother was depressed, and comforted, "Big brother, who doesn't have a war and doesn't eat defeat?" Big brother must not be depressed because of this, I have to rely on my eldest brother to support my lonely family! As the saying goes, stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood, as long as people or there is still hope! ”

Buliu Guli listened to his younger brother's persuasion and regained some clarity, and when he fled to the south gate with four thousand remnants of the defeated general and was about to enter the city, he suddenly changed his mind: "Don't enter the city, the whole army will go south and return to Chang'an at full speed!" ”
