Chapter 105: Guan Shan Xueleng's First Engagement (6)
The evil wolf drives the sheep, and the cruel smile is rampant.
Tian Qianzhen smiled and watched more than a thousand Huaizhou people crying and shouting when they ran towards the other party's car camp, a dull sound of breaking through the air suddenly sounded, and dozens of black dots were like peppercorns breaking into the salt pot, penetrating through the layers of snow curtains, whistling.
"Fierce oil fire?!" Tian Qianzhen was ordered by An Lushan to personally lead the Luohe River to infiltrate Tingzhou in disguise to steal the formula of the fierce oil fire and the blueprint of the counterweight trebuchet.
The black dot fell precisely behind the people of Huaizhou, and immediately cracked, and the clumps of viscous liquid slowly spread out on the messy snow with footprints. Many people were frightened by the sudden monster and stopped to look around.
"Sand! Where is the sand? Tian Qianzhen vaguely remembered that the sand could restrain the fierce oil fire, but there was only a white expanse as far as he could see: "Withdraw!" Evacuate! ”
The Luoluo River, which was mixed with the tail of the people, was about to turn around, and thousands of people shouted in unison from the car camp: "Run!" Don't look back! ”
When the river was about to separate from the people, hundreds of rockets took off into the sky, like a huge peony in full bloom, blooming in the sky above the camp, and then scattered around. As soon as the rocket hit the ground, a circle of fire with a radius of nearly 400 steps suddenly rose, and the sky and the earth suddenly lit up, as bright as summer noon.
The fire is powered by the wind, and the wind helps the fire, and the snow is burned so creaking that it turns into filthy muddy water, just as the world is revealed; Many people who couldn't dodge the Luoluo River and Huaizhou were also swallowed by the crazy flames, and in the blink of an eye, they became charred corpses.
"Hiding in the car formation should be the famous Jingshi Fei Langjun, besides you, who else in the world is willing to waste so much oil and fire to save the useless lambs. Sure enough, it's a big fish! Catch you, Wang Zheng will see that he will be in chaos, and Qingzong Langjun can win without a fight. After Tian Qianzhen confirmed the identity of his opponent, he took out his face armor from the left side of the saddle and covered it on his face: "All the heavy armored cavalry, line up, prepare to charge!" ”
Four hundred heavily armored iron horsemen galloped to the back of Tian Qian's real horse, forming a large array of sharp arrows, and the arrows pointed directly at the middle of the car formation.
Tian Qianzhen pulled the reins, and the war horse man stood up and roared. When he raised his long knife and was about to give the order to charge, with the help of the light of the ring of fire, Tian Qianzhen suddenly found that the enemy's war horses were all gathered in one place, and the huge chariot array was densely packed with all kinds of infantry waiting in battle, but there was not a single cavalryman.
"That's not right!" Tian Qian was really surprised: "Where is the enemy cavalry?" The more than 200 cavalry in front are so fierce, how can the other side only have infantry? If so-and-so is an enemy general......"
A few snowflakes of ice spirit drilled into Tian Qianzhen's neck with the wind, and he looked upwind to the northwest, as if there was something hidden in the wind and snow.
"Order, leave two hundred light horsemen around the ring of fire, and the momentum must be sufficient. The rest of the sons and daughters went north with so-and-so! "Tian Qianzhen was promoted from the lowest-ranking servant light cavalry to Fan Yang's general who was in charge of the Eight Thousand Falling River, and experienced hundreds of battles along the way. If he hadn't been careful enough, he wouldn't have survived today.
The swift thunderbolt of the river was forbidden, and the queue was immediately retracted, urging the horses to the north. In the circle of fire, the Su Ye Army, who was busy rescuing the people, did not notice that the brigade had quietly disappeared.
When Li Sheng led a thousand iron cavalry to gallop from the northwest, they were not greeted by the back of the Drag River who was caught in a fierce battle, but Tian Qianzhen, who was killed from the north.
Fortunately, Li Sheng changed the long formation of the sharp arrow into a round formation in time, and strangled with the Luoluo River, barely avoiding the crisis of being flanked by the enemy. When the main force of the Suye Army and Nan Jiyun's scout group came out in unison, Tian Qianzhen had to temporarily give up his plan to capture Wang Fei alive because of the sharp spirit of the Suye Army's cavalry battalion and Li Sheng's supernatural battle skills. The Su Ye army, which was not as mobile as the opponent, had to watch the opponent leave quickly.
After the battle, the casualties were counted, and the cavalry battalion suffered the most casualties, losing more than 80 cavalry.
There were also more than 100 corpses left in the Luoluo River, but most of them were killed by the chariot regiment's divine arm bow, a small number died from fierce oil fires, and less than 50 people actually died in cavalry fighting.
Dozens of people in Huaizhou were also burned to death by the flames, and countless others were injured. Su Shisanniang, who hated it so much, was just in the Suye army, trying to give the enemy general a fatal blow when the two armies were in close combat, but she didn't expect that Luoluo River retreated so neatly that she didn't give her a chance to use it at all.
Lu Qi was full of emotion, and in order to save the people, he missed the opportunity in vain, resulting in the complete invalidity of the previously drawn strategy of dividing the infantry and cavalry and flowering in the center, and the cavalry battalion also increased casualties. However, he made a quick decision, and in line with the principle of not trading at a loss, he persuaded Wang Fei to select the strong among the people of Huaizhou and incorporate them into the Suye Army.
The soldiers were half dead in front of the army, and the beauty Chang'an was still singing and dancing.
When Su Yejun and Luoluo River roared and fought in the cold and biting snow of Huaizhou, in the house of Ge Shuhan in Xinchangfang, Chang'an, the red furnace was burning through charcoal, and the drunken singing jade dust was flying. Twelve stunning singers danced in a light veil of blue smoke as thin as cicada wings, and the king of Xiping County and Longyou Jiedu, who had not yet recovered from their leg disease, leaned on the soft couch and picked up the clear and transparent glass several times, but they had no choice but to put it down.
"Your Highness, don't worry." Pei Cheng, the shopkeeper of Wenxitang, picked up the wooden box on the desk and held it in front of Ge Shuhan: "I heard that His Royal Highness was slightly ill, and he deliberately found two black and white snakes from Yongzhou (now Yongzhou City, Hunan). This thing is extremely poisonous, and it kills when it touches the grass and trees, and it is impossible to bite people. However, Lazhi is the bait, specializing in stroke, and many imperial doctors in the palace are advocating this medicine. ”
"It really works?" Ge Shuhan opened the wooden box and was skeptical.
"How dare the villain deceive His Highness." Pei Cheng smiled all over his face: "If this medicine is ineffective, a certain person will be punished by military law." ”
"There is Lao Pei's shopkeeper to bother." Ge Shuhan stroked his long beard: "Ming people don't say dark words, I don't know what the East Palace has to teach?" ”
His Royal Highness laughed, he was just an unpopular businessman, how could he dare to speculate on the prince's heart. He offered medicine to His Royal Highness for a speedy recovery and to take charge of counterinsurgency. ”
"There is the Son of Heaven, there is the King Sheng, there is the High Privy, the Seal Marshal, and the King is protected, a certain sick man can enjoy wealth and nobility, so why bother with his mind."
"Your Highness doesn't care about your descendants?" Pei Cheng's tone was very gentle, but his words were as sharp as a knife: "The prince knows that virtue is not worthy, and he was born early to make a virtuous heart." After pacifying the thieves, King Sheng must enter the East Palace. Dare to ask His Royal Highness, Gao Xianzhi transferred his eldest son Gao Yunzhou from the Longwu Army and went to the Huazhou camp to serve as the secretary, what is the plan? When King Sheng ascends the throne, who will be the one who will depend on him? ”
"Discussing the military and political affairs of the court in vain, the crime is unforgivable, and you have meritorious service in offering medicine, so you don't care about it." Ge Shuhan slapped the case angrily, and the kabuki in the hall were so frightened that they lost their faces.
"The villain quits." Pei Cheng didn't care about Ge Shuhan's sky-high anger, and turned to leave. In fact, before he came, he firmly believed that Ge Shuhan, who had lost tens of thousands of soldiers for Shibao, would never be willing to be lonely and sit back and watch Gao Xianzhi and others take charge of the counterinsurgency, but the prince couldn't rest assured that he had to go this way.
After leaving Geshuhan's house, Pei Cheng hurriedly got into an ordinary carriage, for fear of attracting attention. The carriage traveled for several miles, and after confirming that no one was watching, he quietly changed cars again.
Although he knew that Wang Fei had sent a large number of people from the Suye Dart Bureau to Hedong to train the new army, and Su Sanniang was also far away in Jiangzhou, Pei Cheng still did not dare to take it lightly. The news came a few days ago, Fan Qiuniang is still in the city to inquire about his whereabouts, once he is bitten by Gongsun Gate, the troubles will definitely continue, and if one is not good, there will be a worry about his life.
"It's a pity that there is no one around you who can easily defend against the swordsmen of Gongsun Gate." Only at this time will Pei Cheng miss the seemingly rude, but actually silly Duan Daluo.
The spirit of the soldiers is in the sky, and the sound of drums is heard at the bottom.
On the second day after the Suye army clashed with the Luoluo River, Li Mi, who had been sleeping and eating for a long time, happened to encounter the 20,000 Longyouqin Wang army who had been ordered to march to Chang'an in Pizhou, Gyeonggi Province (present-day Bin County, Shaanxi). The leading general is Wang Sili, the envoy of the Heyuan army, and Li Mi has had several encounters. Li Yuqu counted the time, and the chill in his chest rose.
After greeting Wang Sili for a few words, the anxious Li Mi did not care about the good horse given by Su Yeju, and galloped towards Chang'an non-stop, leaving the slow-moving army far behind.
"Ji Sun's worries are not in the moment, but within the Xiao wall! At the moment of the great enemy, the important ministers of the court still have their own thoughts, don't you know that the building will collapse! ”
The next day, Li Mi urged the horse to enter the prosperous Chang'an from Anyuan Gate, and the bloody battles in Hebei, Hedong, Henan and other places seemed to be just a story in the text, except for the original Hexi Jiedu envoy An Sishun who was transferred to the head of the household department and the lord of Rongyi who was given death by the sage, the Tang Dynasty Hall seemed to have no change.
Li Yu sighed, and did not go to the East Palace to visit the prince, but went to the Gaolishi Mansion to cast a famous thorn. In order to see Gao Lishi as soon as possible, Li Mi, who prides himself on being a famous man, also put down his body and stuffed a large number of heavy Tingzhou gold coins into the emperor.
Two hours later, the sage visited Geshuhan's house and rewarded a large number of precious pills. Before the saint left, the edict of Feng Ge Shuhan as the privy deputy envoy and went to the Huazhou camp to help the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses to quell the rebellion had been issued, and Gao Lishi specially sent the Feilong general Zhang Shouyu to Pizhou with the edict to urge the Longyou army to speed up the pace.
When the undercurrent in Chang'an City was surging, Wang Feifang, who had been delayed for several days to settle down and treat the people of Huaizhou, arrived outside Heyang City.
Because he found out that the main force of the rebel army was approaching Huaizhou, Wang Fei asked Su Shisanniang to fly south to Heyang City, and he led the main force to detour through Huaizhou City, falsely passed on the Changqing military order, and ordered the Huaizhou Mansion to clear the wilderness and transfer the people as soon as possible. The Suye Army also distributed manpower to encourage and assist the people to move to Hedong. At the same time, Wang Fei sent people to report to his father and send troops and horses to garrison Baicheng, Taihang, and Yiguan to prevent the rebels from moving north.
When the people were gathered, there were several skirmishes between the Suye army and the Luoluo River. Tian Qianzhen originally planned to capture Wang Fei alive at any cost, but the Suye army relying on the Huaizhou city wall was like a tiger, and used the divine arm bow and Tingzhou cannon to shoot and burn hundreds of Luoluo River. Soon, Wei Boyu, who learned the news, led the Flying Dragon Forbidden Army to respond, Tian Qianzhen saw that there was nothing to do, so he had to go east with hatred, temporarily leave Huaizhou, and join forces with Tian Chenghe's troops.
After confirming that Luoluohe left Huaizhou, Su Sanniang took Gongsun Men to personally escort the people north, leaving only Ashina Wenxia and Liu Xiaofei in the Suye army. Thousands of Huaizhou Ding Zhuang volunteered to join the army, but Wang Fei did not rush to integrate them into the army, but sent them to Jiangzhou for training.
In winter, it is in Heyang City, overlooking the Luoyang River.
The snow was sunny and the sky was clear, and Wang Fei and the scarred Wei Boyu boarded Heyang City together. Looking south, Luoyang City Palace is towering, and the market is orderly; Looking to the east, the Central Plains is full of smoke and golden drums.
"Can Feng Changqing hold Luoyang?" Wang Fei has no answer in his heart, the trajectory of Datang has long been unrecognizable, and everything can only be guarded and fought for by the horizontal knife in his hand.
For ten years, I didn't listen to the sound of swords and soldiers, and I was shocked to see the peace fire entering the city.
At dusk on the 23rd day of the lunar month, a pillar of wolf smoke rose one after another outside the city of Chang'an.
Li Dingbang, the soldier and horse in the river of the "...... of peace and fire", heard that there was some noise on the street, lifted the curtain of the car and looked at it, and found the root cause of the riot: "The border towns are fighting endlessly, but the people of the Central Plains have long been ignorant of the beacon fire. ”
After An Lushan raised troops, in order to grasp the battle situation in various places, the sage repaired the long-abandoned beacon in the interior to report safety, and set off a torch at dusk every day, standing and passing it, indicating that the front line was peaceful, and the people of Chang'an called it "peace fire".
"It seems that the war in Luoyang and Hedong is going well, Wang Zhengjian and Feng Changqing are all famous generals, in the long run, how long can An Lushan jump?" Li Dingbang closed the car window, picked up the secret letter from the river, and frowned silently......
