Section 5 Fleeing from the wind

Liu Yunwei sent the Longxiang Iron Cavalry to pursue the thieves until late at night before rushing back to Lingshi City, and the Iron Cavalry soldiers beheaded more than 2,000 thieves in the process of pursuing the thieves, but still no trace of the thieves Li Guo, Li Kang, and Liu Tichun. Seeing this, Liu Yunwei also had to admire the escape talent of those thieves and thieves.

In desperation, Liu Yunwei had to wait until the next day to pursue the thieves and rout the army. Early the next morning, Liu Yunwei hurriedly gathered all his forces and lined up outside the south gate of Lingshi City, preparing to attack the Yin Di Pass in the south. With Liu Yunwei's order, 60,000 soldiers of the Hanwei army lined up in a neat phalanx and marched south along the official road, until noon on this day, when they stopped on a densely wooded hillside.

The smoke curls and the wind is cold.

The officers and men of the Hanwei Army hurried to bury the pot to cook according to their respective battalions, and the hot broth was covered with thick flatbread, which made the soldiers feel very comfortable, and it seemed that the cold wind blowing around them was warm.

At this time, Liu Yunwei was also having lunch with Li Tianhao, Zhou Tianyi, and Hu Kun, and several people talked about the plan to attack the Yin Di Pass from time to time. At this moment, a team of people hurriedly arrived at night, and a general manager flew off his horse and came to Liu Yunwei's side, clasped his fists and said: "Inspector Qiqi, we have found that there is an abnormal movement in the army of thieves stationed in the Yin Di Pass!" Since the thieves in Lingshi City fled to the Netherworld Pass, the army of thieves in the city began to assemble, and they abandoned the pass and fled early this morning. ”

Liu Yunwei and the others were taken aback when they heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Where did the army of thieves flee?" ”

"To the south, Huozhou City!"

"All the army assembled!" Liu Yunwei did not hesitate when he heard this, and immediately ordered the whole army to assemble and immediately go south to pursue the army of thieves.

Looking at the soldiers of the army that was rapidly assembling, Liu Yunwei secretly calculated in his heart: "The army of thieves has already gone south first, if our army only follows after it, it will be tantamount to letting the thieves lead the way, I must take it by surprise, so that the thieves have no way to go to the sky and no way to enter the ground!" ”

Thinking of this, Liu Yunwei called Guo Yi and asked him to immediately lead the Longxiang Iron Cavalry to attack Huozhou City, and then urgently ordered the soldiers of each battalion to seize the time to reorganize the army, and immediately go south to Yindi Pass after half an hour.

The words are divided into two ends, one for each table.

When Li Guo led more than 15,000 thieves led by Li Kang and Liu Tichun to Yindi Pass, he found that the defender Tian Jianxiu did not consolidate the city defense and prepare for a big battle, but was gathering a large army to prepare for retreat.

Li Guo and the others found Tian Jianxiu, who was packing up, with a gloomy face, and were all angry when they saw that his bags were about to leave. Li Guo immediately asked, "General Tian, what do you mean by this?" Before the Hanwei army arrives, are you going to abandon the city and flee! ”

Tian Jianxiu was slightly stunned when he heard this, knowing that everyone had misunderstood him, so he said with a smile: "General Li, everyone, don't misunderstand, it was General Chuang who sent an urgent order, ordering our troops to immediately assemble reinforcements and return to Huozhou City to join the main army of General Chuang." In addition, General Chuang also specially said that when you come back, you will return to Huozhou City with me. ”

Everyone was taken aback when they heard this, they didn't know what Li Zicheng meant, he had obviously arranged the strategy for the big war before the war, how could he change his course because of one or two defeats?

Li Guo took a step forward and asked, "Is something wrong?" Why did the general withdraw to Huozhou City? ”

Tian Jianxiu didn't reply immediately, but said with some annoyance: "General Chuang said in the letter that the 200,000 troops of Lao Huihui, Eight King Kong, Wang Zishun, Heavenly Monkey and others were defeated by the official army in Fushan City, and the 200,000 army was almost wiped out. Now the governor of the three sides, Hong Chengchou, is leading his generals Cao Wenzhao, the general soldier of Nanshan, Wang Chengen, the general soldier of Shaanxi, and Yang Jiamo, the general soldier of Gansu, to the west, and the army is aiming directly at the city of Pingyang. ”

Li Dang and Liu Tichun were shocked when they heard this, they never expected that the 200,000 army of Lao Huihui and others would be defeated by more than 10,000 people under Hong Chengchou's department, which was also too sensational!

Li Guo said angrily when he heard this: "Lao Huihui and the others are a bunch of waste, and the general has long persuaded them to train elite soldiers, but they don't listen!" What's the use of having more people? No matter how many people there are, they are a rabble! ”

"There's another piece of bad news."

Li Guo and the others all looked at Tian Jianxiu in horror, waiting for the next article with fear.

Tian Jianxiu's face turned pale and said: "It is reported that Zhang Zongheng, the governor of the Xuanda Governor of the official army, led his generals Bai An, Hu Dawei, Zuo Liangyu, and He Renlong to suddenly kill from the west of Pingyang Mansion City, and fought a big battle with the soldiers of King Chuang's department in Pu County, thirty miles west of Pingyang Mansion City, and King Chuang was defeated and lost, at least 40,000 or 50,000 soldiers of the Righteous Army were lost, and more than 100,000 displaced people were separated from the Righteous Army. Now the Xuan army has approached the city of Pingyang from the west. ”

Hearing this, Li Guo, Li Kang, and Liu Tichun were all pale, under the current situation, the officers and troops have come up from the east, north, and west, and the righteous army is already at an absolute disadvantage, and the slightest carelessness will be the end of the whole army!

Li Guozou frowned and asked, "What does Chuang General say?" ”

"The whole army returned to Huozhou City, and then withdrew to Pingyang Fucheng and Chuang Wang's division, concentrating on defeating the official army all the way first, and then making arrangements according to the development of the situation. In addition, King Chuang had ordered the armies of all walks of life to return to Pingyang to converge. ”

"It's good! Then without further ado, let's hurry up and head south! ”

Only an hour later, Li Guo, Li Kang, Tian Jianxiu, and Liu Tichun led an army of 25,000 to abandon the pass and rush towards Huozhou City.

In the evening of the same day, everyone led the already exhausted army to the vicinity of Huozhou City, and before they had time to catch their breath, they encountered a team of scouts sent by Li Zicheng.

After Li Guo learned about it, he immediately stepped forward to inquire about the situation, and before he could speak, he saw a scout say loudly: "General! The general asked the villain to come desperately to give the order, and the army immediately rushed to Fenxi City to defend it! The iron cavalry army of the Han Wei Army, which has been around 10,000 people, has been killed under Huozhou City, and you have completely cut off the connection between Huozhou City and the outside world, it is no longer safe here! ”

When everyone heard this, they were shocked, and everyone was a little at a loss for a while.

At that moment, a thunderous roar came from the eastern sunset, and it was getting closer and louder.

Li Guo's hair stood up in shock, and he immediately shouted: "Enemy attack!" The whole army is arrayed to meet the enemy! ”

At this time, almost everyone knew that it must be the iron cavalry army of the Hanwei Army coming from the east, and now only by fighting to the death to defend this place and holding on until General Chuang led the army to support, everyone will have a glimmer of life.

In the face of the threat of death, Li Guo, Li Kang, Liu Tichun and Tian Jianxiu all broke out with a strong fighting spirit, and led their troops and horses to line up in the east, preparing for a bloody battle with the roaring Hanwei army's iron cavalry army.

However, Li Guo and others' plan is very good, but the reality is very cruel. The terrible impact of the Han Wei Army's iron cavalry army on the army of thieves cannot be resolved with a single order or an encouragement. Moreover, under the leadership of Guo Yi, the dragon cavalry was as strong as a tiger, as fast as lightning, and it seemed that it was still a long distance before disappearing in the blink of an eye, and 10,000 elite iron cavalry were killed in front of the army of thieves in the blink of an eye. At this time, the formation of the army of thieves was only a rough prototype, and there was no tightness or solidity at all!

Such a battle would mean endless death for the army of thieves, which meant the annihilation of the entire army!

Really!

As soon as the two armies fought, Guo Yi led 10,000 iron cavalry soldiers to rush into the phalanx of the thief army, like a hot war knife cut into the lard at once, slashing to the end!

The Iron Cavalry army rushed all the way from east to west, and it only took a stick of incense to rush out of the thief array from the west, and the army of more than 20,000 thieves was completely washed into a pot of paste.

Guo Yi couldn't stop laughing when he saw this, and shouted at the iron cavalry soldiers behind him: "Soldiers! Divide and surround, divide and surround! Annihilate the enemy, kill with me! ”

The 10,000 iron cavalry army roared in unison and shouted victory, reversed the direction of the cavalry formation on the edge of the battlefield, drew a perfect arc, and once again aimed at the already scattered thief array, and smashed it hard.

Li Guo, Li Kang and others, who were still undecided, saw the Hanwei Army's iron cavalry killed again, and they already knew very well in their hearts that their more than 20,000 troops were completely scrapped, and this battle could save their lives, and it was already blessed by the heavens to escape by luck!

So, Li Guo, Li Kang, Tian Jianxiu, Liu Tichun and others each brought their own soldiers and henchmen, ready to break through in different directions, as for whether they can escape, they can only depend on their luck and resign themselves to fate!

Suddenly, there was a sound of trumpets from the south side of the battlefield, and then many elite horse teams rushed out of the darkness of dusk, and a banner with the word "Chuang" suddenly appeared, followed by a tight phalanx composed of tens of thousands of thieves.

Li Guo and the others were immediately excited when they saw this, and they all shouted loudly in order to vent their emotions.

Li Zicheng personally led the defenders in Huozhou City to come to support!

At this time, Li Guo and the others had only one thought in their hearts: "I survived!" ”

When Guo Yi saw the army of thieves who could not see the edge at a glance, he was so angry that he scolded him, so he could only give up attacking Li Guo's department first, lead the whole army to retreat to the north to reinvigorate the array, and at the same time send fast horses to report to Liu Yunwei, asking the main army to immediately go south to support.

After the Iron Cavalry Army reinvigorated the queue, Guo Yi looked at the army of thieves who had successfully joined the army in the distance, and his heart was full of anger, he raised the spear in his hand and roared loudly: "The blood will not be drained!" ”

"No truce!"

"The blood doesn't drain!"

"No truce!"

"Wan Sheng! Wansheng! Wansheng! ”

"Long Xiang! Charge! ”
