Chapter 367: Liu Heng's Withdrawal Road

After returning to the camp, Liu Yuan immediately called Qiu Linju: "Liu Heng and Liu Gui, how many days has the battle situation in Yuzhou not been reported?" ”

Seeing Liu Yuan's fierce expression, Qiu Linju was shocked, and said honestly: "Cao Wei has already sealed the pass, blocked the east-west traffic, and strengthened internal monitoring. As a secret agent, the exchange of news is inconvenient, and there has been no news from His Royal Highness King Chen for more than half a month. ”

"Half Moon, you're not in a hurry at all?" Liu Yuan said coldly.

Hearing this, Qiu Linju fell directly to his knees, feeling uneasy.

"I also know that it is difficult to pass on information, so I don't embarrass you." Liu Yuan took a breath: "The situation on King Chen's side is not good, you give me an order to go, let him try his best to break through, and I will send an army to respond." No matter what the cost, be sure to get it! ”

"No! Obey! Chu Lintu hastened to reply.

"Let's go down!"

couldn't help but look to the east, after all, it was his eldest son of the emperor, King Chen of Great Xia, how could Liu Yuan not care. The situation on Liu Heng's side is difficult, and what about Wan Qianjin in Hebei, Liu Yuan is a little worried in his heart.

......

On the outskirts of Qian County, on the shore, Liu Heng led a cavalry army of less than 3,000 people from the east at this time to temporarily repair. After plundering in Yuzhou for so long, the results were quite fruitful, and the counties and counties that he passed through became erosive.

However, deep in the enemy territory, Liu Heng, who led such an army independently for the first time, was under great pressure. has always been because of the grain to the enemy, but the counties of Wei have tried their best to clear the wilderness, and the cold winter is coming. The soldiers lacked warm clothing, the horses lacked forage, and the army was short of food, and Liu Heng's soldiers and horses did not have a good time.

When he was in Runan, the county guard Manzhong and the county lieutenant Li Tong caused great trouble to Liu Heng and Liu Gui. Completely unaffected by Xia Qi, let you maneuver like the wind, that is, steady and steady, give Liu Heng and the two of them a pocket, and slowly shrink.

After rushing to Peiguo, he burned and killed, relieved the lack of military food a little, and took advantage of the situation to march north, and the soldiers of Cao Cao and Wei were in Suiyang, what kind of spirit was that. However, Liu Heng did not dare to be too presumptuous, in Cao Ang led the army to the east, the soldiers and horses of the counties in Yuzhou were steadily compressed, and Xiahou Yuan of Xuzhou also led the army to the west, and a huge encirclement was formed, slowly shrinking and pressing towards him.

His cavalry crisscrossed the Central Plains without fear, but the fortified cities, canyons, grain and grass were not continued, but by the end of autumn, all supplies were insufficient, and even the arrows in the army were almost exhausted. Because the grain is in the enemy, there must also be food to take, and the people from all sides either enter the city or return to the mountains and forests, and after a long time, Liu Heng has no food to grab.

In the face of Cao Wei's troops and horses, he retreated south from Suiyang, and when he was in Linsui, Liu Heng made a bold decision to attack the city, killing and wounding more than 300 elite soldiers, attacking the city, burning and looting, and alleviating the problem of lack of supplies for the Xia cavalry.

However, it was this move that put Liu Heng in a predicament, so he repaired it overnight, and Xiahou Yuan in the east actually led 10,000 troops across Suishui to the west, besieging the city, and the end was very fast, which caught Liu Heng off guard. Being in enemy territory, unfamiliar with geography, and having different roads, many times is like a blind and deaf person, and the sense of smell is all about action and combat. Xiahou Yuan's coming was something that Liu Heng didn't smell.

Later, the Wei army began to quickly shrink the encirclement, but under Li Tong's suggestion, they still fought steadily and blocked all paths. When he was in Runan, he let Liu Heng slip away, and this time Wei Jun was more careful.

Although the Central Plains is located on the plains, it is not everywhere to run in the same direction, there are roads, mountains, forests, rivers, and valleys, and the cavalry cannot fly and cross these obstacles. The Wei army was based on each city, supplemented by various obstacles, and wanted to besiege the Xia army.

Deeply aware of the urgency of the situation, the danger of the situation, and the fact that he could not take much into account, Liu Heng immediately led the whole army of more than 4,000 cavalry to make an all-out assault. I want to break out of the siege before the Wei army completely closes.

But Xiahou Yuan is not easy to deal with, rejecting horses, trapping horse pits, bows and crossbows, spearmen and shield arrays, and all kinds of means to limit the combat power of the cavalry have come up. One assault was ineffective, and hundreds of horsemen were lost.

At that time, Liu Heng was flustered, but he knew in his mind that he must break through as soon as possible. If you really want to be completely blocked in the city by the Wei army, and wait for more Wei troops to arrive, then you will just wait for death.

Rushed to the west twice, but was blocked by Xiahou Yuan. Under heavy pressure, Liu Heng simply divided the soldiers and horses into four branches, leaving no room for forceful things on all sides. Xiahou Yuan came in a hurry, Liu Heng's reaction was very fast, and he did not encircle all sides in a short period of time.

Xia rode to survive, after all, Liu Heng was highlighted, leading the regrouped more than 3,000 knights to run south, only three of his four strong generals remained, and when he broke through, Hou Xuan died under the knife and was chopped into meat sauce.

When the southern pavilion was in the south, it coincided with Cao Ang leading the Wei Zhongjian battalion to intercept and block the road. This is the first time that Liu Heng and Cao Ang have met face-to-face, and the first time they have confronted each other head-on. In the case of chasing soldiers behind, Liu Heng gritted his teeth and directly ordered a strong attack.

Xia Qi under his command completely reduced to a begging army, attacking with all his might. Attacking the well-packed Wei army formation with light cavalry will naturally not end well, and the blood and courage will not work for a while, and the morale will weaken. The backbone battalion with Cao Ang as the center, has been as stable as Mount Tai, the attack did not take more than half an hour, and then lost more than 300 horsemen, sensing that something was wrong, Liu Heng decisively withdrew his troops.

Originally, I wanted to go straight south and then enter Runan, but at least I was a little familiar with Runan County. There was an enemy in the south, and the Wei army in Xuzhou was slowly approaching behind, and Liu Heng ordered to turn to the west to this county.

"This county is the place where Cao Cao, the Marquis of Wei, was born!" Leaning on a tree, Liu Heng looked northwest at Qian County, shrouded in mist, and said in a low voice.

Liu Heng did not have the nobility of the Prince of Great Xia for a long time, he was full of embarrassment, with thick stubble and old folded robes. His expression was tired, and his eyeballs were bloodshot.

Wading through the water, there is a temporary rest, but Liu Heng knows that there must be Wei troops oppressed in the southeast, northwest, and north. In order to suppress Liu Heng's army, the Cao Wei garrison in Suiyang mobilized a section to the south.

"Your Highness, there are enemies on all sides, there is no food and grass, and the soldiers are tired, what should I do next?" Liang Xing came to Liu Heng's side and said in a depressed mood: "The weather is getting colder and colder, and the soldiers have no winter clothes to protect them from the cold." ”

Glancing at Liang Xing, Liu Heng smiled a little wryly: "Four strong generals, only you and Yang Qiu are left." Have you ever regretted coming here alone, in deep danger?"

When Cheng Yi broke through to Jia Ting, he was beheaded by Wei Zhongjian's general Dian Wei and beheaded.

"Life and death follow His Highness, and there is no regret!" Yang Qiu said in a deep voice.

"Let the soldiers rest for another hour, and continue to walk south to the city father! The task given to us by our father, we have almost completed it! Liu Heng said solemnly: "This time, we are fighting for our lives!" ”

Liu Heng's voice resounded in the surroundings, and some soldiers couldn't help but shake up when they heard it. When fighting in such a situation, it is natural for morale to decline, but the military spirit can still be condensed but not dispersed, and Liu Heng's role is very great. His Royal Highness King Chen, born and died with them, ordinary soldiers, how dare they complain.

The leader continued to the south, and on that side, there were Cao Xiu's county soldiers slowly advancing north. Xia Cai, who was weak and weak, and his combat power was declining, even if he fought head-on, he might not be able to fight those Cao Wei soldiers.
