Naturally, it was impossible for the Hu army under the city of Haoyang to surround the city by setting up camp tents, digging trenches, and erecting fences, completely surrounding the city. Although Heyang is small, there are thousands of households every day, even if the army is stationed and crowded, fifty or sixty thousand people will definitely be able to accommodate it; And the Hu army must go down to camp three or five hundred steps away from the city wall, so that it is convenient to set up a formation in front of the camp first, and then launch an attack on the city wall. Even if you can complete this huge camp and fortification, how thin will the defense line be......

Therefore, only the four gates were set up in the shape of the characters, and the trenches and barracks were dug in front of the camp, and the fences were built and the horses were inserted. In the camp, high turrets are built more for lookout, and small earthen forts are built outside the camp, and the left and right arches are protected. As for the three gates, only some short moats were dug scattered, some fence stakes were inserted, and a few tents were erected, which were scattered to prevent the cavalry from penetrating in a straight line.

If the Jin army wants to break the siege, it is naturally impossible to rush out from these seemingly sparse places, because the path is narrow and tortuous, if you do not break the main force of the Hu army, the other party can take advantage of your loose array and chaos at any time, and take the camp as the foundation, flanking left and right. Therefore, after Yao Yizhong received the order, he directly opened the city gate and rushed to the west camp of the Hu army.

Now under the city of Haoyang, there are only two or three thousand Hu soldiers guarding the west camp, the number is equivalent to that of Yao Yizhong's department, although there is a certain amount of defense, but no one thought that the Jin people would come to the camp that night - it is impossible to every day and night, the big guys do not rest, and they have been guarding against sneaking camps and attacking the village, right? Therefore, most of the Hu soldiers slept on their pillows, and only when they heard the drums in the city did they hurriedly get up and line up, which inevitably caused a short period of chaos.

Yao Yizhong knew that time was of the essence, so he took the lead and led three hundred men, the core of which was the Qiang pawn of the headquarters, to charge from the gate of the city, and three to five hundred steps passed in an instant, taking advantage of the situation obtained from the reconnaissance on the city during the day, he directly used his spear to pick off the rejecting horses, rushed through the camp with wooden planks, and cut the fence with a broadsword. But at this time, most of the Hu soldiers were also in place, and arrows were fired from the oars of each building in the camp. Yao Yizhong raised his shield high, protected his head and face, and took the lead in boarding the enemy base as if he didn't know it......

The Di and Qiang people in these years were generally better at fighting than the Jin people, not only on the basis of the difference between nomadism and agriculture - in fact, there were not a few Di and Qiang farmers - but the various tribes often competed for pastures and farmland, fought with each other, and even bled and pestle, but the government was often too lazy to intervene. It is true that the farming people also have disputes over land, water, and even inexplicable sacrificial customs, which are really big, and the scale of village wars is no less than national wars, but under normal circumstances, the local clans will be in the middle to make peace, and the government will also try to suppress or eliminate contradictions.

In these years, there is no clear difference between Huayi and Yi, but it naturally regards the Rongdi dispute as someone else's housework, and has no mood or energy to take care of it. If it is a struggle among the Chinese people, it is likely to lead to a rift between the nobles, especially the family, every time its power extends from the local area to the court, whoever plays a book, the magistrate will inevitably be reprimanded, or even dismissed from office, then who dares to ignore it? Of course, try to make the big things small, and the small things into nothing. Rong Di is different, it is rare for a certain Di and Qiang to be attacked, but they run to complain to the imperial court, so the magistrate simply covers his face with his sleeves, just look at it, as long as you do not encroach on the country's land, or even do not attack the famous city of Dayi.

Anyway, the Rong Ministry only pays tribute and does not pay taxes, so who will pay tribute, and what is the difference? Di and Qiang often attack each other, for example, if they raise Gu, the strong swallow the weak, and thus become stronger, until it is difficult for China to control, and then it is too late for the magistrate or even the court to regret it......

Yao Qiang was originally only a middle tribe in the Chiting Qiang, and he was often oppressed by other tribes, so he gradually trained a hundred battle elites. The main purpose of Yao Yizhong's fall to Pei Gai was to strengthen his own people, so that he could avoid being annexed, and then he could annex other tribes.

Therefore, he took the lead and took the lead in ascending the base. Hu Yingzhong fired arrows in a chaotic manner, Yao Yizhong held his shield high to cover his head, and he felt that there was a huge shock in his hand, and he didn't know how many feather arrows were inserted into the shield. Fortunately, he is a general at the level of supervision, and his equipment is naturally well-equipped, not only wearing the iron armor of the whole body, but even the shield used is also specially made, which is larger than the ordinary goods used by the soldiers, and the wooden shield is reinforced with iron hoops, covered with thick skin, and it is difficult for idle bows and arrows to penetrate.

But even so, if there are too many arrows, it will be a wooden shield after all, which will inevitably shatter, and the only way to avoid this doom is to accelerate the charge and go straight to the enemy base. If they can rush to the bottom of the oar, it will be difficult for the Hu soldiers to shoot accurately, and if they enter the enemy camp, the Hu soldiers will inevitably come against them, and in the melee, the archers will not dare to shoot again.

Sure enough, before he landed at the enemy base, several Hu soldiers raised spears to stab. Yao Yizhong raised his shield to protect his head, and his vision was very clear, and when he was about to slightly side of his body, he had already avoided the spear, and then he stepped forward, waving the long knife in his right hand, and a Hu soldier was in the middle of the door, and the other party abandoned the spear, screaming and falling, and blood splashed half of Yao Yizhong's body.

Seeing blood at this time, Yao Yizhong's almost innate ferocity in his bones flourished on the spot, and the sword danced like the wind, and everyone was invincible. Breaking through a gap, the Jin soldiers threw the torches in their hands into the Hu camp, burned the camp tent, and then fought with the Hu soldiers who came to block it.

Yao Yizhong and the others had already run out of breath, and once they were in short combat, they quickly fell behind. But then the rear team also rushed up, they were a stone's throw away from Hu Lei before they began to charge, and their physical strength was still abundant, and they were about to replace the rest of the starting comrades except Yao Yizhong one after another - Yao Yizhong himself was the deputy governor and front-line commander, but he could not retreat, and still fought bloodily on the front line.

Pei Gai did not know where the main force of the Hu army would be guarded, so as soon as he left the city, he ordered Lu Yan to lead his troops to the southwest and Dong Biao to lead his troops to the northwest to prevent blocking the Hu army that came to reinforce from the north and south gates. Qiao Tai led his troops from Nanzhai in a hurry, and when he collided with Lu Yan, the two sides first shot at each other through the fence, and then Qiao Tai ordered the elite infantry to go to the west base from the fence, and Lu Yan also sent a section to break the fence to contain it, and then launched a cruel hand-to-hand encounter.

Pei Gai was immediately outside the moat, and all aspects of information were like divergence, gathering around him - Liu Yetang came to report that Yao Yizhong had entered Hu Lei, he followed behind, and was about to rush in, observing the frontal Hu army, there should only be a few thousand people, so there is no need to worry; Immediately, Dong Biao came to report, saying that he had successfully cut off the Hu camp in the west and north directions, leaving half of the troops in the formation to block the reinforcement of the Hu army in Beizhai, and dividing the other half of the troops to penetrate the encirclement and try to attack Xizhai from behind.

In the end, Lu Yan came to report, saying that he bumped into Hu Jun head-on, and it was difficult to argue the number in the dark, but the banner of the word "Left Cavalry General Qiao" was faintly visible, and it was estimated that it was the main force of the enemy, and Fang came to help from the south base.

Pei Gai immediately turned his head and instructed his subordinates Tao Dedao: "Quickly go to General Tao, the main force of the Hu army is in the south, and it has left the base to the west." ”

Tao De received the order, immediately turned around and rode into the city, coming to report to Tao Kan. Tao Shixing did not follow Pei Gai out of the city gate, he was in the east of the city at this time, ready to give full play to his strengths and engage in his old business - fighting boat landing battles!

The Yellow River flows from the east of the city of Haoyang, and there are moats outside the city, which divert the water of the Yellow River to stop the enemy. Since Tao Kan entered the town of Feng Yi, he toured the cities and found such a landform, so he ordered to tear down more than 100 houses in the east of the city, dig a shallow artificial lake, and also introduce the water of the Yellow River to store boats. In fact, this ferry port in the city of Haoyang can be used as a substitute for the ferry outside the city in case of emergency.

Previously, Hu Jun wanted to release a boat from Haoyang to transport grain, but Tao Kan opened the water gate, released the boat from the artificial lake, and shot a rocket to break it, almost not allowing a grain of rice to enter Liu Cang's army. Today, there are still nearly 100 boats in this small artificial lake, although they are not very large, they can carry as many as six or seven hundred soldiers.

Tao Kan sat on the ferry, waiting for news. When Tao De came to pass on what Pei Gai said, saying that the main force of the Hu army had been found out and was stationed in the south of the city, Tao Shixing couldn't help but smile and said: "God help me!" As soon as the order was given, he personally led the boat out of the city, went down the river, and went straight to the Haoyang ferry.

Haoyangdu has long been conquered by the Hu army, but because of the defeat once, it does not plan to transfer grain from here again, so the number of garrisons is not much, only more than 300 people. The guards had just received an order from General Qiao Tai to abandon the ferry and return to help defend the southern base, so they were gathering their troops when they suddenly saw a flash of fire coming down the water and heading straight for the ferry, and they couldn't help but be surprised.

Hurriedly ordered the soldiers to return to their original positions and guard the ferry, but in a hurry, it was inevitable that they would be in a hurry, but the Jin army took the opportunity to jump ashore and board the ferry, holding short soldiers in hand, and went straight to Hulei.

Tao Kan is a native of the south, quite good at boating, and naturally has a set of landing battles. In those days, there were very few independent naval forces - unless they were boats and boats - the so-called naval forces were actually more similar to the "marines" of later generations, and often land warfare was its main business, and it should also belong to the infantry. Tao Shixing led these more than 600 foot soldiers, most of them were born in Xuzhou, not afraid of wind and waves, but on the water, they can only do not faint, and can barely shoot arrows when the waves are slow. It is only when they are on the land that the true skills of these soldiers can be brought into play.

The Hu army was originally small in number, and coupled with the surprise, it was quickly dispersed by Tao Kan and his troops. Immediately, Tao Kan didn't care about the boat, nor did he guard the ferry, but turned to kill the southern base of the Hu army under the city of Haoyang. The remnants of the defenders of the southern base were only a thousand people, and when they saw the enemy coming with torches high, and they did not know how many there were in the dark, they hurriedly sent people to Qiao Tai for help.

Qiao Tai was fighting fiercely with Lu Yan, relying on the large number and the geographical advantage, he slightly gained the upper hand, and suddenly got a retribution, and couldn't help but be shocked. You must know that the quality of the Hu army was similar to that of the Pei army - the main reason is that after Pei Gai expanded his army in Guanzhong, the veterans of a hundred battles were diluted - but the weapons and equipment of the Pei army were generally better than the Hu army, and they were trapped for many days, and once Jia Yong came, its momentum was unstoppable. Qiao Tai has transferred all the elites to the front line, but he still can't break through Lu Yan's interception and successfully reinforce Xizhai, according to his judgment, this battle is less than half of the night, I am afraid it will be difficult to distinguish the winner from loser.

However, looking at it from afar, in the firelight, the banner of the Hu army in Xizhai fell to the ground on one side, and it was clear that the Jin people had not only broken into the base, but also advanced more than 50 steps in a short period of time, and would be killed to the main camp position.

Then even if he can successfully break through the enemy soldiers in front of him, before entering the west base, it is estimated that he will not rush - the Jin army will seize the west base and defend the base, and the situation of the host and guest will be reversed. So how about retiring and guarding the southern base? If the west base is broken, the north base cannot be complete, and what is the use of defending the south base alone?

Previously, Liu Cang led a large army to come, several times more than the defenders of Haoyang, so he was able to go down to the village on three sides and besiege it. But now Liu Cang has led the main force south, and the number of Qiao Tai's troops left under the sun of Haocheng may not be more than the city defenders, Sun Ziyun: "The method of using soldiers, ten is to encircle, five is to attack, and the enemy is able to divide it...... since it can only be "enemy", that is to say, the number of soldiers on both sides is similar, if it cannot be "divided", the chance of victory is bound to be slim.

Liu Cang left Qiao Tai to "monitor" Haoyang, according to common sense, he should abandon the old fortress, gather troops in one place, if the enemy goes out of the city to attack, then defend the fortress, if the enemy wants to abandon the city and flee, then he can follow the trail and chase. However, Liu Cang began to go south during the day, if Qiao Tai moved the camp again, he would be detected by the city, he hoped that he could use the empty fortress to confuse and tie Pei Gai, and buy more time for Liu Cang, so he still guarded the fortification, who wanted the Jin army to attack the camp that night!

Obviously, his own calculations have been known to the Jin people, otherwise Pei Gai is unlikely to send the main force out of the city and come to attack the fortress, but will only send some soldiers and horses to try to break through, so that it will be convenient for Qiao Tai to redeploy and block. Or maybe Pei Cai's main attack was on the south base, and Qiao Tai stuck to the camp with a slightly inferior line of troops, which could also stop the Jin division - but unfortunately Qiao Tai expected the wrong direction.

As the saying goes, "if you miss a chess move, you will lose all the games", the matter has come to this point, the advance cannot save the west base, and the retreat may not be able to defend the south base, and Pei should break through is a foregone conclusion. If they continue to entangle, and when all the bases are broken, the Hu army will retreat and have nothing to rely on, and its morale will gradually decline, it will definitely be defeated.

Qiao Tai is worthy of being a general in Huzhong, after a little thought, he knew that the defeat would be certain, and it was difficult to reverse, for today's plan, only by temporarily retreating, gathering and shrinking troops, can there be the possibility of fighting again. So where should the forces be reduced? He still believed that Pei Gai's move was to break through the siege and go west in order to meet Guo Mo—just at dusk, there was a report from the Malay that he had found that the Jin army of Pinyang had left the city and was heading east—so he restrained his troops, and used the cover of the night to gradually break away from contact with Lu Yan and temporarily retreat to the southwest.

Qiao Tai's plan, if Pei Gaiguo and Guo Mo were compatible, he would try to build a line of defense on its south side, so as to tie up the Jin army, prevent it from moving south quickly, and prevent Liu Cang's main force from attacking Dali.

He withdrew more than ten miles from the land, and in the middle of the night, he re-encamped and set up a fortification. Hu soldiers fought and were busy all night, all tired, but Qiao Tai couldn't sleep yet, and hurriedly sent a detective horse to patrol the four sides to see where Pei should go? How far is Guo Mo from Haoyang? According to common sense, the Jin army has also been fighting fiercely in the middle of the night, Pei Gai will not dare to attack in a hurry, Guo Mo's department is still far away, and he has at least one day's time to reorganize.

Whoever wanted to have a horse to go for a short time, he hurriedly came to report, saying that there was a Jin army crossing the east to Luoshui, and it was less than twenty miles away from this army! Qiao Tai was shocked and hurriedly asked, "Could it be Guo Mo's front, how many people are there?" Tan Ma Yu reported: "No less than tens of thousands of people, high the banner of 'Wuwei General Zhen'!" ”
