Chapter 163: Hedong County's Offensive and Defensive Battle (Part II)
However, at this time, the chaotic appearance of Li Yin's army made Yao Junsu see the hope of defeating Li Yin's tens of thousands of elite divisions in one fell swoop, although the information came a little suddenly, but Yao Junsu was afraid that the fighter plane would be fleeting, so he couldn't care so much, and immediately ordered the whole army to move forward quickly!
When Yao Junsu continued to move forward with 15,000 soldiers, and not long after walking, Su Dingyi immediately led more than 10,000 soldiers out of the ambush place, and in the sound of drums, the momentum was like a rainbow to kill the middle of Yao Junsu's army, instantly cutting Yao Junsu's army into two parts.
Yao Junsu was shocked, but soon made a decision, not only did not let the army retreat, but instead commanded the army to kill the Su Ding Fang army that suddenly appeared, hoping to flank the Su Ding Fang army in the middle with his own army in the rear, in order to turn defeat into victory.
But the two sides fought for a while, and suddenly there was a shocking drum sound, and Yao Junsu's rear killed a team of more than 5,000 people, led by the general, who was Luo Shixin, the number one general of Li Yin's army at this time.
And the Tanma, who had explored the battlefield in Xia County before, also told Yao Junsu that Luo Shixin was the general who left Li Yin's army with soldiers not long ago.
As soon as Luo Shixin entered the enemy camp, he was instantly unstoppable, and no one could drag him for a moment and a half, and he kept killing in the direction where Yao Junsu was, and Su Dingfang on the other side was the same, and he immediately killed Yao Junsu's soldiers.
Yao Junsu knew that the defeat was decided, so he fled in embarrassment in the direction of Wang Anyi City under the escort of his personal guards, but when he was about to stay away from the battlefield, he was shot in the shoulder by Luo Shixin from afar.
Su Dingfang and Luo Shixin then took advantage of the victory to pursue, Yao Junsu's rout army was either surrendered or killed, 15,000 people left the city, and finally only more than 2,000 people fled back to Anyi with Yao Junsu.
Xia County, which was already in danger, immediately lost its fighting spirit after learning the news of Yao Junsu's fiasco, and threw down their weapons to no longer resist, so Li Yinjun quickly captured various city walls.
Wang Xingben's personal guards persuaded him to break out of the city immediately, but Wang Xingben said that he was ashamed of Yao Junsu and the Son of Heaven, and he lived in the world without shame, and then killed himself, Li Yin asked his body to be collected and buried in the southern suburbs of Xia County.
After breaking through Xia County, Li Yin joined forces with Su Dingfang and Luo Shixin, and then led a large army to besiege Anyi City.
At this time, there were only about 7,000 troops left in Anyi City, which had just suffered a major defeat, and lost the foreign aid of Xia County, and the morale was low to the bottom.
However, Yao Jun is extremely strict, and he is usually prestigious, so no one dared to mention a drop for a while.
Previously, because it was necessary to force Xia County to ask for help from Anyi City, he attacked Xia County regardless of casualties, although he achieved good results, but there were also many casualties.
At this time, the defeat of Anyi City was already obvious, and Li Yin did not want to increase the unnecessary casualties in vain, so that the army was temporarily besieged but not attacked, and then prepared for a battle to attack the heart.
Li Yin first divided a part of the soldiers, let them take turns to pretend to attack the city, in order to disturb the minds of the defenders of Anyi, and around the clock, so that after a few days, and so on after the defenders of Anyi City figured out Li Yin's routine, Li Yin ordered the whole army to attack Anyi this time but there was no fraud, the defenders of Anyi were caught off guard, and suddenly they were in a hurry, if it were not for Yao Junsu, who had not recovered from his injuries in the end, personally went into battle to kill the enemy, and narrowly repelled the soldiers who climbed the city, this Anyi City was almost broken through by Li Yin's army and entered.
After that, Li Yin repeated his old tricks and continued to let the soldiers take turns pretending to attack the city, but under the reality of the reality, the defenders of Anyi City did not dare to slack off, and they have been on strict guard, although Li Yin did not launch a real attack, the defenders of Anyi City were already exhausted, not to mention ordinary soldiers, even those important generals who had concubines and maidservants to serve and sleep, they were also a little unbearable.
Li Yin also asked the soldiers to use a stone thrower to throw food and paper into the city of Anyi.
The food was thrown to show the goodwill of his side, and as for the papers, there were some demagogic words, such as: Yang Guang, the capital of Jiang, had died at this time, and Yang Tong, the king of Yue in the eastern capital of Luoyang, had already thought that all the soldiers of Hedong County had surrendered......
Yao Junsu was shot in the shoulder by Luo Shixin's arrow, injured his muscles and bones, shed a lot of blood, did not heal, and that day he personally went into battle to kill the enemy, and aggravated the pain, plus overwork, these days he fell ill, when he heard that the enemy threw food paper, he immediately ordered the soldiers to confiscate all the things and burn them.
It doesn't matter if the paper is confiscated and burned, but in terms of food, ordinary people and some soldiers have secretly hidden it in their homes, and in this world, food is the most precious thing, and no one will want to take out the food hidden in the house.
When the soldiers who carried out Yao Junsu's orders did not care so much, as long as they found out that they had hidden the enemy's food, they all confiscated them, and some people were unwilling to resist, but they were beaten violently.
When Yao Junsu made a plan to let the soldiers confiscate the paper and food, he was so angry because of the pus from his shoulder injury, and he thought about it carefully, but after a long time, he suddenly woke up to something, slapped his thigh and said: "It's not good, I fell for Li Yin'er's plan!" ”
Li Yin ran to the city of Anyi to deliver food, Yao Jun Su did not do anything, Li Yin successfully showed goodwill, reducing the resistance of the soldiers and civilians in the city, if Yao Jun Su let the soldiers confiscate the food, it would aggravate the contradiction between the people and the soldiers, and it would be beneficial and harmless to Li Yin.
Yao Junsu suddenly woke up at this time and hurriedly asked the soldiers to stop moving, but the soldiers reported that most of the confiscated food had been burned.
At the end of November, Li Yin's army had besieged Anyi City for nearly half a month, during which various intrusion methods continued, and the battle to attack the heart had shown results.
Xue Zong and Li Chuke were also the people who surrendered after killing Yao Junsu in their original history, but in history, when they killed Yao Junsu, they did it after holding on for a long time and when the mountains and rivers were exhausted.
At this time, the reason why Xue Zong and Li Chuke defected to Li Yin so quickly was that the defenders suffered a big defeat not long ago and their morale was low, so that they had no confidence to resist Li Yin's army at all, and secondly, because Li Yin's psychological battle in the past half a month made them really unbearable, and the last reason was that Yao Jun had been ill for a long time and his control over his subordinates had weakened, and Xue Zong and Li Chuke had the courage to surrender to Li Yin.
