Chapter 33, unfortunately defeated by the reckless man
In these years, it is really "bandits are like combs, and soldiers are like grates", whether it is the Jin army or the Hu army, the difference in military discipline is between the two and the middle. Although the road is not far from Kuaicheng, it is located between the valleys, the transportation is inconvenient, the information is blocked, the little people, where do they know what Pei Gong's order is, and what kind of discipline the big Sima Army is? In addition, Zhen followed his personality and did not persuade him with a pleasant face, but scolded him, which frightened the old man who came to negotiate and jumped away.
The inhabitants of the city gathered together to discuss, and some people said that this army was strong and brave, and it was really impossible to resist, so it was better to surrender the city. Some people also said, look at these soldiers are all lightly armed, it seems that there is no grain truck behind them, they must be here to grab food, if they are let into the city, we can rob all the grain we plan to grow for the winter...... It's better to stick to it.
Some people also said, "You and the others have gathered all the sheep and horses into the city, but we and the fields of the Jin people cannot be moved, they are all outside the city, and they are about to open the sickle to harvest, if they do not open the city, they will be plundered and trampled by the soldiers—what else do you say to grow grain?
Since there was no leader, naturally there was no result to be discussed, and the gates remained closed, and there was no reply. Zhen Sui was furious, left Xin Pan, and directly led the troops to rush over.
There were no siege equipment, so they temporarily cut down a few trees, tied them into ladders, and climbed the wall. To say that the people he brought this time are indeed the elite of the army, not to mention the strength of the ten thousand people, they are all brave and healthy for a while, where can the residents in the city resist it? Dozens of young men rushed to defend the city, but the bow was soft and the spear was blunt, and in an instant, they were attacked by the "fire robbery battalion" soldiers. The first to climb immediately swung a knife and slashed over one person, and the rest let out a shout, which instantly collapsed.
After Zhen Sui entered the city, he ordered a house-to-house search, and drove all the people out, and occasionally those who dared to resist were all anointed with the butcher's knives of the soldiers. Xin Pan persuaded him: "The Ming Duke strictly ordered that the Jin people must not be harmed, and the general must not slaughter the city...... Zhen Sui glanced at him and asked: "If the Jin people are not injured, can the Rong people be killed?" "Xin Pan said that I didn't mean that-" Ming Gong said, no matter Jin Rong, but from Wanghua, you can't add swords and ......soldiers in vain" Zhen Sui glared: "They refused to open the city to welcome me, but asked our army to go around the city, is this considered to obey Wanghua?" ”
Xin Pan was speechless, so he had to flick his sleeves and say whatever you want, I don't care - I can't control you anyway.
Pei's military orders are very strict, but it is impossible to implement the provisions of the law on every specific incident, as long as there is a heart, there are always gaps to drill. Theoretically, regardless of women and children, the young and strong people in the city who dared to resist the king were all guilty, and even if they were not killed, they should be taken to the mines to work as coolies. However, Zhen Sui has been following Pei for a long time, and he knows where the bottom line of this big Sima is, so he just talks about it, and he really doesn't dare to find an excuse to kill wantonly.
Besides, looking at the rags of these residents, and the old man who came to negotiate not long ago was dressed a little neater, and there was not much food in the city—because it had not yet been harvested—there was even less gold and silver jewelry, and you slaughtered this kind of broken city, is it interesting?
So he slaughtered the cattle of Diqiang, feasted them to a full meal, tied up all the inhabitants of the city, left ten healthy soldiers to guard them, and told them to wait for Hu Yan to lead the rear army to follow, and then forced all these people to move to Kuaicheng. Zhen Sui did not guard the city, brought ten days' food, and the next morning, he dragged Xin Pan out of the city and went straight to the river.
From the old road to the river pool, nearly three hundred miles, there is no decent road, but there are streams in the valley to wash out some sheep intestine paths, waiting for the path of beasts. Zhen Sui simply skimmed his mount, rolled up his trouser legs, and walked by the stream, and the soldiers under his command followed suit, walking like flying one by one, as if they were marching on the official road.
is the only one who suffers from hard work, he is a son of a big family and a scholar, when did he walk this way...... And if you travel far in your life, even if you don't have a horse, you can always find a donkey or mule to travel. Xin Huaiyuan soon fell behind with a sigh of relief, and Zhen Sui urged repeatedly, saying that you are the guide, you should go to the front, hurry up and catch up.
Xin Pan shook his head and said, "I really can't walk...... The road here has never been walked, what is the guide? The general should go first, and let me go back to my old ways for the time being. ”
Zhen Sui suddenly laughed and said, "It's that I looked down on Xin, and I knew that this was the case, so I should find a guide in the old Dao City." "Ordered to stay put, and sent a few soldiers back to find the guide.
Therefore, in the city, there were indeed people who took the path to cross the river pool, and after a short time they were escorted, and the team continued on the road. However, Zhen Sui refused to let Xin Pan go back, and ordered several healthy soldiers to take turns to carry it and take him with him.
But such a road, even if the team is accustomed to the mountain march can not go fast, Xin Pan once said, "a day to travel up to twenty miles, fifteen days to reach the river", Zhen Sui also slandered, now it seems that the road twists and turns, more than 30 miles a day is already the limit...... He prayed to God, hoping that Yang Jiantou could stay for a few more days and stay up until he arrived—but don't let me work so hard to reach the river pool, but I can only see his head!
The more Zhen Sui walked, the more regretful he became, because this kind of beast path is not what the army should go at all, if it is not as good as Xiaping, Yang Jiantou will be defeated, and Yang Feilong will lead the troops to fight, and when the time comes, he will be outnumbered, and the formation will not be able to be lined up, no matter how brave he is, what can he do? Maybe he can only scatter and escape, he is not worried that he will not be able to escape, but it is really damaging the prestige of this general!
Besides, the rations are only enough for ten days—mainly because the people of the old way are very poor, and no matter how much you can't find—if you flee back these days, you have to hunt temporarily, and even pick wild fruits to satisfy your hunger, and if you run into any bandits, even if it is a Qiang hunter, my dignified General Zhen may not be able to escape back!
It's really a big deal......
It's a pity that the world is like this, the more you worry about something, the more likely it is that something will happen, when there is still a day and a half of travel from Hechi City, you suddenly bumped into Yang Jiantou's defeated army......
Yang Jiantou is not enough to meet the expectations of the tribe left by his deceased father, and his ability to fight is far inferior to Yang's opponent. In the original history, the two brothers confronted each other for a long time, until five years later, Liu Yao personally led his troops to attack Yang Nan enemy from Guanzhong Shanglong.
At that time, Zhudi and Qiang all surrendered, and Yang had no choice but to submit to Liu Yao, but then Chen An erected an anti-flag on Longshang, and he also rose up to echo, and when Chen An was killed, the Yang brothers were terrified, and fled south to Hanzhong with them, borrowing Cheng Han soldiers and horses, so that they could recapture the revenge pool after a few years.
However, in this timeline, because Yang Ci led the army to help, Yang Nandi took the initiative to launch a fierce attack on his brother, Yang Jiantou was defeated, and his subordinates were scattered, and finally only more than 30 people with his family and cronies fled into Dongshan, planning to run from the road to the old road. When he saw Zhen Sui, Yang Jiantou couldn't help crying loudly and said, "Why is it too late for the general to come!" ”
Is it too late for Zhen to say casually? For another person, it is estimated that he has not even entered the Old Dao City at this time. immediately reprimanded: "Victory and defeat are commonplace, why should you be so pus-informed? Since you are willing to submit to the Governor of the Metropolis and have the support of the Governor, are you afraid that you will not be able to kill and return to your hometown and become a brother?! ”
He saw that there was a high mountain in front of him, so he pulled Yang Jiantou and Xin to climb the mountain and looked, only to see that between the mountains, there was a silence, listening attentively, only birds and beasts. Zhen Sui asked, "Didn't Brother Ru send troops to chase after you?" ”
Yang Jiantou said that of course he would chase him, but I ran fast and threw off the pursuers, and it is estimated that they could not find any trace of me, and they have all withdrawn to the river.
Zhen Sui rubbed his chin and groaned, and Xin Pan next to him said: "Since you have saved General Yang, it is better to retreat to your hometown." Zhen Sui pouted: "How cowardly you are!" Pointing to the bottom of the mountain: "Yang Nandi will no longer come to chase, then I must not know that I have arrived here, I am afraid that I am holding a banquet with Yang Ci in Hechi City to celebrate my achievements." If I take the opportunity to rush in and surprise him, I will have a great chance of winning! ”
Xin Pan smiled bitterly and said: "If this army is all here, it is natural to carry out this surprise attack, but now the general only led three hundred people here, and the enemy army is not less than 10,000, and the number of people is very different, how can it be reasonable?" ”
Zhen Sui shook his head: "The soldiers have gone so far, and if it is not feasible, it has to be done...... "He turned his head to look at Xin Pan and asked him: "The grain and straw you carry are about to run out, and Yang Jiantou has not much around him, you said that you will go back to your hometown, how can you get back?" ”
Yang Jiantou fled in a hurry, and it was naturally impossible to carry a large amount of grain around him, not only that, but he even threw away a few concubines who walked slowly on the way, and even a son who was still in swaddling clothes. But because of habit, he brought a lot of gold beads - easy to carry - Zhen Sui gritted his teeth when he saw it, and directly ate Yang Jian's head as a meal.
Xin Pan couldn't help but smack his mouth when he heard what he said, and said in his heart, isn't this your mistake? At that time, I also repeatedly advised that I should stay in the old city for a few more days, and wait for the rear army to come together before acting, but you just won't listen...... However, where the duty lies, I have to persuade again, please Zhen Sui don't make mistakes again and again.
Zhen Sui said: "If a person is not a sage, who can be without mistakes?" What if I'm wrong, can't I just admit defeat? Stretched out his hand and pointed to the bottom of the mountain: "Now I have to go to Bo, either lose cleanly, and save yourself from thinking about how to return to your old ways, or completely turn the tables!" Then he said that if you are timid, you don't have to go, and you can protect Yang Jiantou's family here.
So he left a few soldiers to guard Xin Pan, and he pulled Yang Jian's head and his cronies, hurriedly went down the mountain, and continued to advance towards the river pool. The next night, they came to the city wall in the dark.
Because of the special attention to the intake of nutrients, the proportion of night blindness in the Great Sima Army is not high—even stronger than that of most nomadic tribes—and what Zhen Sui brought out this time is even more elite of his own family, and everyone is accustomed to walking at night. Yang Jian's head fell a lot and couldn't keep up with their pace, so Yu Lu was left behind.
Yang Jiantou pointed to the city, saying where and where, a few days ago when defending the city was broken by the enemy, the city wall collapsed a corner, it is more convenient to climb. Zhen casually led the troops to approach quietly, and at the sound of an order, the soldiers each threw the hooks of iron claws, and they all climbed one after another.
The city guards were defenseless, and in the middle of the night, there were many people who dozed off directly behind the moat, and they were immediately climbed up to the city by Zhen Sui and others, cut down several people, and rushed into the city. Zhen set fires everywhere with his soldiers on order, and shouted: "General Xiao Yang has invited the imperial court officials and soldiers to come, and 100,000 heavenly soldiers have arrived at Hechi!" "General Wuwei Zhen is here to take the head of Yang Nan's enemy!"
Yang Nandi hadn't slept yet, and was discussing with Yang Ci Bingzhu how to act next. According to Yang Nandi's meaning, since I have already defeated my brother, I should turn back and argue, and then go to Qiu Chi to officially inherit my father's throne...... Yang Ci advised him that he should continue to march eastward and take the old road to prevent blocking the officers and troops who might be killed.
was discussing, suddenly heard the noise in the city, went out to look, the fire soared into the sky, Er Yang couldn't help but be shocked. hurriedly gathered his subordinates, but there was a mess in a hurry, how could they get together? Yang had no choice but to jump on his horse, rush out of the city in one go, and flee in the wilderness. Yang Ci's movements slowed down, but before he could escape to the city gate, he was blocked by Zhen Sui.
When Zhen Sui saw that this person was dressed in brocade clothes and wearing a small crown, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and shouted, "Are you Yang Nan's enemy?" Zhen is here, and if he doesn't get off the horse quickly, when will he stay? ! When he said this, he kept saying it in his hands, twisting the spear and stabbing it. When Yang Ci heard Zhen's name, he was so frightened that his legs were weak, and before the spearhead was close, he first shuddered, rolled the saddle and fell off, and then knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "I am Yang Ci, the general of Yingyang, and I ask General Zhen to spare my life!" ”
Zhen immediately twisted his wrist, changed the stab to a split, and slapped Yang Ci to the ground with a spear shaft, and ordered the soldiers to tie him up.
The residents of Hechi City, most of whom were originally Yang Jiantou's clansmen, before the city was broken, they had no choice but to temporarily return to Yang Nan's enemy, and now they heard that the Jiantou Lord led the official army to kill back, so they went out with their weapons to help Zhen follow them to kill Yang's enemy's soldiers. From midnight until dawn, the victory was finally decided.
Besides, Yang was difficult to beat, and ran out of more than ten miles in one go, and when he saw that there were no pursuers coming, he stopped his mount. After dawn, the defeated troops were gathered, and three of the ten stops were broken - of course, there were not many killed or captured, most of them ran away in the dark - and there was no trace of Yang Ci everywhere. Immediately, a soldier reported that I saw General Yang Ci being captured by officers and soldiers, and Yang Nandi was honest and unkind on the spot, and swallowed up thousands of defeated troops in Qinzhou.
Then he sent someone to sneak into the river to find out the news, and then he learned that it was true that the official army came to rescue Yang Jiantou, and it was also true that the fierce general Zhen followed his relatives, but there were only two or three hundred people who entered the city...... Yang Nandi was furious, and immediately commanded the army to turn back and kill back.
At this time, Zhen Sui was urging Yang Jiantou to re-recruit soldiers and horses, and search and kill spies, repair the city defense, heard the news of the enemy, and went to the city to see that the horizon was full of people, waving flags, almost no less than 10,000 people. He knew that with less than 300 people under his command, it would be difficult to defend this small city, and Yang Jian's subordinates Jin and Di would not be of much use. So he simply ordered the west gate to be opened, found a horse by himself, and immediately shouted in front of the door: "The master is Zhen Sui, and the country worships as General Wuwei!" I have heard that Yang is a strong opponent, can you dare to come to fight for life and death?! ”
Yang Nandi couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I didn't mean that I fought a hundred bloody battles, but I didn't notice it for a while, and I was defeated by this reckless man!" He ignored Zhen Sui's challenge at all, and directly led the army to rush over.
Zhen Sui was forced to retreat back to the city, organize the defense, and at the same time search for grain and straw in the city, ready to follow the original route to escape back to his hometown once the city was broken......
