Chapter 26: The Bloody Battle of Luoyang

When the city of Luoyang was close to Shenshi, the sun was still scorching, and the soldiers were about to change shifts as before, when suddenly a soldier shouted: "The enemy is pressing!" I saw that the soldiers on the gate of Luoyang City exploded in an instant, only to hear a sudden sound of "bell... The sound of the bronze bell resounded in the sky, and the lieutenant general on the city gate shouted loudly: "Don't panic, the archers are ready... "The well-trained patrol soldiers were prepared for defense with bows and arrows.

At this time, in the magnificent palace of Luoyang City, Gao Gao and Han Xian were drinking in the main hall, and when they suddenly heard the warning bell, Gao Gao, who was about to drink, threw down the wine lord and stood up, quickly ran to the door, held the door and looked at the sky outside, and said anxiously: "General Han, you are a prophecy, unfortunately you are serious, the Western Wei army is really coming!" ”

At this time, Han Xian had already stopped in front of the door and looked around at the sky outside, and paused: "Western Wei Yuwentai is really extraordinary, the march is so fast and hidden, our army waiting for cavalry did not realize it, so few men and horses should lock the pass to defend after capturing Hongnong County, I didn't expect to dare to drive Hangu Pass to attack Luoyang!" ”

Gao Gao then turned around and walked to the main hall, neatly picked up his helmet, grabbed the war knife and quickly walked out of the door, Han Xian followed closely behind him in a hurry, and said to Han Xian angrily: "A group of grass cowards, they actually have the courage to take the initiative to attack Luoyang, and the master is muddy?" ”

Han Xian also quickened his pace to keep up with Gao, and said to him, "How does the general plan to deal with the enemy?" ”

Gao Gao, who walked fast, said: "I have 20,000 defenders in Luoyang, am I still afraid of a gang of grass robbers, I want to compete with them!" ”

Han Xian said at this moment: "The general is well versed in the art of war, at this moment, our army should defend Luoyang to the death, and Kim Yong Cheng can help each other, I intend to wait for the enemy army to run out of food and grass, but I can retreat without a fight!" ”

Walking like a fly, he glanced back at Han Xian, and said disdainfully: "After I killed Er Zhu Zhao with high spirits, I won more and lost less, this way of playing is too embarrassing, and let Jinyang's Hu Lujin, Peng Le and other jokes, I want to justifiably defeat Western Wei Yuwentai and let those fools shut up!" ”

Han Xian said helplessly: "Have you ever thought about what Yuwentai thinks most at this time?" ”

Gao Gao, who was walking, suddenly stopped and said, "What do you want most?" Something to say! ”

Han Xian also stopped and said: "The Western Wei Dynasty sent a letter to Guguan in the east this time, and drove thousands of miles of troops to attack Luoyang, the supply of grain and grass must be its weakness, and its greatest hope is to fight quickly, our army only needs to wait for help, and the Western Wei will not dare to attack, wait for the prime minister to repel Rouran, and lead the troops south, when the two armies are combined, they can be encircled, so as to level the Western Wei Yuwentai in one fell swoop!" ”

After hearing this, Gao Gao walked up as quickly as an arrow, thinking as he walked, and suddenly said to Han Xian behind him: "General Han's strategy is indeed the best policy, but has General Han ever thought about it, so what kind of face do we have to gain a foothold in the Eastern Wei Dynasty?" Haven't you been slandered by the Xianbei main joke that we are waiting for every day? I intend to take the initiative to open the door to meet the enemy, and Yuwentai will not dare to fight against me! General Han doesn't need to say much, and watch his formation before making a decision! ”

Han Xian was very helpless at this time, and said slowly: "The military aircraft is changeable, I hope the general is cautious!" ”

The two of them walked quickly in the direction of Luoyang Chengguan one after the other.

At this time, Yuwentai outside Luoyang City led 20,000 iron cavalry to approach, and stopped outside the range of bows and arrows, and looked around the city defense of Luoyang, constantly shaking his head, only to see Gao Gao suddenly appeared on the city pass, Yuwentai then pulled the horse forward, did not go far, stopped the horse, and shouted to the high in the city: "General Gao Ao Cao is not harmed!" I have never met with the general, and today I am fortunate to see Sansheng, and now your lord is too busy to take care of himself, it is better for the general to serve my Western Wei and not lose the title of the founding duke! ”

I saw Gao laughing loudly, and also shouted to Yuwentai under the city: "Since Prime Minister Yuwen values it so much, it is better to stop and go into the city to drink, and I can recommend you to Gao Xiang in the future, and I can also reduce the misery of all living beings!" “

Yu Wentai pondered for a while and shouted: "Gao, you don't know the number of days so much, and you recognize the thief as your father, aren't you afraid that your brother's spirit in the sky can't bypass you?" ”

Gao Gao was angry at this time, and shouted: "Yuwen Kurose, the two armies are talking about the number of days in front of the battle, chattering endlessly, my brother has already been an ancient man, what does it matter to my brother?" If you want to fight, you will fight, and talk less nonsense! ”

I saw Yuwen Taylor Ma turn around, laughed, and shouted: "Okay, you are a dignified nine-foot man, so reckless and ignorant, Tai really pity you, can you dare to fight?" ”

Furious, he shouted highly: "Yuwen Kurose, don't play tricks, tomorrow you and I will fight in formation, let you know that the pot is iron!" “

The excited Yuwentai laughed out loud and shouted, "Good! So Le Ma turned back and led the army to retreat slowly.

Since Luoyang and Kim Yong Cheng were each other's horns, the Western Wei army had to retreat to Yiyang and set up camp to avoid the danger of being attacked by the two armies.

In the military tent in the camp of the Western Wei Dynasty, Yuwentai was dressed in battle armor, lying next to the case, and the generals were all contemplating and holding their breath, Yuwentai said slowly: "Brothers, the army led by Gao is the elite of the Eastern Wei Dynasty, known for daring to fight hard battles, not to be underestimated, in the past, our army responded to the enemy with flexibility and mobility, but this time it is different, the two sides are heavy soldiers, do you have confidence?" “

I saw that the generals in the big tent said in unison: "Yes... “

Yu Wentai then bypassed the case, came to the center of the big tent, glanced around at the generals, and said firmly: "This battle method is different from the past, behind the Eastern Wei Dynasty is the strong Luoyang City, and there are Kim Yong City as each other's horns, our army needs to send elites to prevent Kim Yong Cheng from sneak attack, in order to avoid fighting on both sides, I don't know which general dares to take on this important task?" “

I saw General Yang Zhong, who was brave and strategic, came out and bowed to Yuwentai and said, "Lord, the minister is willing to go!" ”

Yuwentai was overjoyed and said: "Okay, then hand it over to General Yang!" Be sure to be prepared! ”

General Yang Zhong's eyes were firm, and he replied: "No! Lord! Prepare now! “

Yu Wentai then nodded, and General Yang Zhong hurriedly walked out of the big tent.

At this time, Yu Wentai turned around and walked to the middle hall, and ordered in several places on the case: "Zhao Gui will lead the left army, Li Bi will lead the right army, I will lead the Chinese army to attract Gao to attack, and then the left and right armies will quickly close the siege, and the battle will be high!" “

The generals bowed in unison and said in unison, "No! Then he hurried out of the big tent.

Yu Wentai suddenly shouted at this moment: "Yu Jin, the metropolitan governor stays!" Yu Jin quickly turned around, came to the middle hall and bowed his hand: "Lord! What do you command? ”

Yu Wentai bypassed the case, came to Yu Jin's side and said, "The metropolitan governor is unhappy? ”

Yu Jin hurriedly said: "Lord, why do you say this? ”

Yuwentai looked at Yu Jin and said: "This time I didn't accept your advice, I insisted on going my own way, although the governor didn't say it, I can also see that what I said is right or not!" “

Yu Jin was not surprised, so he said slowly: "Lord, the minister has followed you for many years, and the minister's temperament and temperament are also well understood, this time the minister did not agree at first, because my Western Wei is weak after all, the battle line is too long, and Guanzhong is weak, Li Hu is in Lingzhou, Guangyang is already empty, if the Eastern Wei Gao Huan repels Rouran, just send a general to use the strategy of encircling Wei to save Zhao, and raid Guanzhong, then my Western Wei is in danger of losing its foundation, although we all know that sooner or later we will have to fight to the death with the Eastern Wei, But for my Western Wei army, the later the better, now that is already the case, the lord does not need to worry about what the ministers think, tomorrow's battle must be high! “

Yu Wentai looked at Yu Jin Dadu Governor, and said excitedly: "Dadu Governor is my old pillar in the end, loyal and brave, and everything is not hidden, in view of this, my Western Wei elite are here, and I also ask Dadu Governor to return to Guangyang to town Sanqin, so that our army will no longer have to worry about the future, and I can take it down!" ”

Yu Jindadu seemed to be thoughtful, paused and replied: "Lord, the minister is willing to accompany the lord to meet the battle here, you can send Brother Dugu back to defend Guangyang to town Sanqin, this time deep into the enemy territory, the situation is complicated, the minister is worried... ”

I saw Yu Wentai approaching Yu Jin, put his hand on his shoulder, and said earnestly: "The Dugu Governor is good at appeasing the people with virtue, but the war strategy is not as good as the Metropolitan Governor, looking around at the generals of the Western Wei Dynasty, only the brother is worthy of entrustment, and it also reassures me the most, the heavy responsibility of guarding the Three Qins is none other than the brother!" ”

Governor Yu Jin looked at Yu Wentai, his face was unusually calm, but his heart set off ripples, he pondered for a while, and hurriedly replied: "The lord trusts him so much, the minister must do his best to repay the lord!" Take care! After finishing speaking, he turned to leave, and when he was about to lift the curtain, he suddenly stopped, so he turned around and glanced at Yuwentai, only to see that he was very worried, shook his head, and then bowed to Yuwentai and turned around and lifted the curtain and walked out.

Yu Jin's worries Yu Wentai saw it in his eyes, but he had to send it when he was ready to fly.

The next morning, the sky is high and the clouds are light, the lonely sun is unusually close to the ground, illuminating the earth like releasing a golden sword, at this time Luoyang outside the city is a slaughter, the two sides of nearly 40,000 troops stand opposite each other, a distance of one mile in between, a black helmet, black armor, black cloak Yuwentai stands alone in front of the big array, the autumn wind comes from time to time, its back cloak flies from time to time, full of murderous air, staring at the elite Gao army of the Eastern Wei Dynasty in the direction of Luoyang, 18,000 cavalry behind him are waiting for the battle, and the war horses are singing and slapping their hooves, Always ready to run wild.

On the other side of the Eastern Wei Dynasty, Gao Gao thought that no one was an opponent, so he was arrogant and majestic to play the flag marking the general, only to see him wearing red armor, red helmets, red cloaks and majestic, riding on a war horse and staring angrily at the Western Wei army, the servant who was almost killed by him at the moment held an umbrella cover for him to shade the sun, and the umbrella cover also marked the identity of the general, and the cavalry behind him was all mighty.

There are a few geese in the sky hovering over the big array of both sides, the sound of chirping resounded through the sky, there are a little cavalry in front of the big array on both sides, and the dust is flying, only to see the Western Wei Prime Minister Yuwentai and the Eastern Wei generals looking at each other at a distance of one mile, suddenly Yuwentai lept the horse forward, at the same time Gao also reined in the horse forward, only to see the two commanders stop at the place of almost 10 meters, looking at each other.

The murderous Yuwentai stared at Gao Gao, and blurted out: "General Gao Aocao, you really don't know that your brother Gao Qian was killed by your lord Gao Huan and Emperor Xiaowu?" “

Hearing this, Gao Gao was still arrogant, and said disdainfully: "Yuwen Kurose, I know that you have always been scheming, but in front of this general, don't play your tricks, my brother was killed by Emperor Xiaowu, this matter is known to everyone, and what does it have to do with Gao?" Don't fight with tongues, fight if you want to fight, how can you be worthy of being an iron-blooded man? How to be worthy of being the commander of an army? “

After hearing the lofty words, Yu Wentai laughed and said: "You are a fool, I really don't know how you survived to this day, my compatriot brother was killed by the enemy, and he worked for the enemy, it is really ridiculous!" ”

After hearing this, Gao Gao was instantly furious, and shouted: "Yuwen Kurose, don't say useless words, see the truth on the battlefield!" ”

Yuwentai's agitation strategy worked, so he said in a low voice: "Do you really dare to fight with me?" ”

Full of anger, he blurted out: "Today next year is your death day!" ”

Yuwentai, who was smiling, turned around and said, "Okay! I saw that Qi Ler's horse had returned to the front of the great array.

Enraged, Gao Gao also returned to the front of the large array, knocking over the umbrella cover held by the servant to the ground.

I saw Yuwentai and Gao Gao pull out their war knives at the same time, so they slowly raised their war knives high and shouted loudly: "Chengtian Dao, punish the national thief, kill... The cavalry behind him quickly roared out, and the demonic iron cavalry rushed towards the direction of Luoyang Chengguan.

Gao Gao at the other end also raised his sword and shouted, "Go to war... Gao Gao personally led 15,000 iron horsemen to rush and kill him.

The iron cavalry of the two sides collided and fought together, instantly covering the sky, screaming fiercely, the war horse neighed, and the corpses were everywhere, only to see the Eastern Wei general was very powerful, the cavalry of the Western Wei army was paper paste in front of him, the knife fell, the Western Wei iron cavalry fell to the ground, and the cavalry behind him was also extremely powerful, Yuwentai, who did not move in the same place, saw that Gao Gao was so brave and unstoppable, so he ordered the guard Cai You behind him to say: "Cheng Xian, lead three thousand iron cavalry to divide the Eastern Wei army!"

I saw Cai You, the guard on the horse, holding the reins and saluting: "No! Lord! Then he led three thousand iron horsemen into the middle of the formation.

The forces of the two sides were roughly the same, Yuwentai set aside 3,000 elite cavalry to fight the enemy with agility, and Gao Gao left 5,000 soldiers to guard Luoyang.

The scorching sun is like fire, outside Luoyang City, looking at the corpses all over the field from afar, I saw the three thousand Western Wei elites led by the guard Cai You interspersed with the Eastern Wei army, as if entering a no-man's land, the Eastern Wei army was in chaos in an instant, the soldiers and generals were cut by the three thousand elites of the Western Wei Dynasty, and they could not fight together, some put down their swords and surrendered, and some rushed in a panic, and they were all messed into a pot of porridge.

The calm Yu Wentai continued to observe the battlefield situation, and suddenly said to the flag soldiers behind him: "Order the left and right armies to surround and lock up!" ”

I saw the flag soldier holding the white flag on a black background with both hands, first stretched out his arms, and then the two flags merged in front of his chest, the battlefield led the left army of Zhao Gui and the right army of Li Bi of the capital governor of the rapid encirclement of the Eastern Wei army, the Eastern Wei army that was rushed was in chaos, the soldiers did not know the soldiers, the soldiers did not see the generals, the encounter turned into a beating of the water dogs, after several battles, the high and high saw that the situation was not good, and the 15,000 iron cavalry led by him was already less than 100 horses, so he shouted loudly: "Break out of the encirclement and move closer to Heyang!" He fought hard, and the hundreds of horsemen behind him were all killed on the spot in order to cover him, and only Gao Gao and his servants survived and fled in the direction of Heyang South City.

Yuwentai saw that Gao Gao was defeated and fled, so he ordered General Da Xiwu beside him: "General Da Xiwu, quickly pursue Gao Gao, can't let him escape, I want his head!" ”

General Da Xiwu took the reins in his hand and saluted: "No! Lord! So he led a hundred scouts behind him to chase after him.

Since then, the elite iron cavalry of the Eastern Wei Dynasty has been defeated, and the general of the Eastern Wei Hussars has fled frantically as if he had lost his heart, and Luoyang has been controlled by the Western Wei.

Predict what will happen next, and see how it will be broken down next time!
