Chapter 13 Shame and Thief Acquaintance Not Born with Kou (4)
(Third Update.) )
After Li Shaocheng conquered Jianmen Pass, and then captured Jianmen County, he stayed for a while, and when Li Congke, Shi Jingjiao and others led their respective town armies to catch up with the division, they marched to Jianzhou Prefecture to govern Pu'an, intending to capture Jianzhou City in one fell swoop, and create a stable bridgehead for the imperial army to defeat Shu and gain a firm foothold.
On the same day, the Jingnan Army, the Protector Army, and the Baoyi Army arrived in the north of Jianzhou City, it was already dusk, and the army camped at the foot of the North Mountain, and that night, Li Shaocheng, Li Congke, and Shi Jingjiao gathered to discuss, and prepared to attack Jianzhou City at dawn the next day, and it was agreed that the Jingnan Army would take a short rest and recuperate, and the Protector Army and the Baoyi Army would be the vanguard of the siege.
And the day before, in a place called Laisu Village, an army that had just been assembled, about 1,000 people, quietly set off, took the trail, and went straight to Jianzhou. On the day Li Shaocheng and others arrived in Beishan, before dark, this army rushed to the left of Jianzhou and saw the Tang army camp under Beishan.
This army, subordinate to the Xichuan Army, the two generals who led it, one is the commander of Xichuan Yanei Pang Fucheng, and the other is the commander of Zhaoxin Xie Qi, the army was originally stationed in Laisu Village, and there is no important military affairs, the two heard the news of the loss of Jianmen Pass, they were shocked, and discussed, if the Tang Army was allowed to further capture Jianzhou, they were afraid that the two rivers would be in danger, so they did not wait for the military order, and brought their subordinates to support Jianzhou City.
Pang Fucheng and Xie Qi brought a few personal guards to smear and approach Beishan to observe the Tang army camp under the mountain, but they saw that the camp was ten miles away, and the lights were brilliant, like the sea of stars hanging upside down on the ground.
Pang Fucheng and Xie Qi looked at each other, although it was dark night, they also saw the jealousy in each other's eyes, and the former took the lead in speaking: "The Tang army is powerful, not to mention more than 10,000 people, our army is only more than 1,000, that is, you and I are brave and elite, and one is ten, but it is far from enough." And today it is dark, the enemy does not see me, I do not see the enemy, the soldiers do not know that the opponent's strength is so strong, once it is daylight, I perceive that the enemy army is ten times larger than me, I am afraid that you and I will all flee, and there will be no one left! At that time, Hugh said that to rescue Jianzhou, you and I will be even more difficult to be responsible! The situation is like this, it is difficult to advance and retreat, how to distinguish it, what are the plans of the brother? ”
Xie Qi said with a calm face: "Earlier, you and I heard that the Sword Gate Pass was missing, and before we could ask for a military order, we led our troops here, what are you trying to do?" It's just to rescue Jianzhou in order to save the two rivers! At that time, you and I did not expect that the enemy army would inevitably be strong, and we would be outnumbered and outnumbered? The reason why I came here is that I have the determination to become a benevolent person if I don't succeed! Now, the arrow has to be sent, how can there be a reason to escape? ”
Pang Fucheng was awe-struck and said, "Brother's words are exactly what I want." Previously, Guo Gong led us to destroy Shu before March, what a great feat, and what was the result? Above the Tang court, the king was deaf, the traitors were dense, Guo Gong was dedicated to the country, and he made great achievements in the past and the present, and the court ignored it, and even secretly ordered him to be killed, so that a generation of heroes died at the hands of eunuchs! Such grievances are unprecedented! Today, we are guarding the two rivers for the imperial court, not to mention meritorious, at least there is hard work, the imperial court not only did not send our family members into Shu, but instead raised troops to attack, but what a reason! Such a mean and unrighteous court, black and white, it is okay not to be loyal! Today, you and I are here, there is no advance or retreat, there is death but no life! ”
When Xie Qi heard this, he was extremely moved, and said: "Okay, today you and I are of one heart and one mind, even the fire pit can jump, I'm afraid that he will be a bird!" After some bold words, he returned the topic to the actual issue, "At present, the Tang army has not yet gained a stable foothold, and I don't know that we have arrived, you and I just took advantage of tonight to go to the camp first, kill the other party by surprise, one of them, let the other party lose its troops, and the other two, but also call these Tang troops, dare not despise us and others!" ”
Pang Fucheng stroked his palms and said excitedly: "Brother's words are exactly what I want." However, the enemy is outnumbered, but it is not good to blindly do it. In a certain opinion, when using suspicious tactics to rob the camp, we should make a big noise and attack back and forth, so that the other party thinks that I have thousands of troops and horses, and if I can scare the other party away, I just keep Jianzhou! ”
Xie Qixi said: "Brother Xian's plan is very good, it should be like this!" If so, before you attack the enemy, I attack behind the enemy, okay? ”
"Okay, that's it!"
In a war, no one knows how many nobodies, what kind of feats will be made, how they will change the situation that is inconclusive, how they will make a name for themselves and achieve meritorious deeds, and how many generals who have been famous for a long time will lose a good situation and hate them for eternity on the confusing battlefield, and become a stepping stone for others to climb up.
In this battlefield, no one is the master, the world of great contention, anyone can devote themselves to the battle for life and death, however, 100,000 people are eager for merit, but not everyone has the opportunity, and not everyone has luck, and those who have both opportunity and luck will take advantage of the situation.
That night, Li Shaocheng had fallen asleep, and suddenly was awakened by a bustle, and collapsed, listening quietly to the loud sound, like a tsunami in the mountains, which made him so shocked that he was in a cold sweat, took a horizontal knife, and called the guards at the tent, "What's the noise?!" ”
The guards hurriedly said: "The thief army attacked the camp, there are both front and back camps, the momentum is huge, I can't see how many people there are!" ”
Li Shaocheng suddenly felt unbelievable, that the Jianzhou army dared to attack the camp of the army? He asked again, "Where are General Li and General Shi?!" "There is a reason for asking this, the Jingnan Army has a fierce battle at Jianmen Pass, and it is non-stop to conquer Jianmen County, this time to attack Jianzhou, Li Shaocheng did not keep vigil, and he was on duty tonight, but Li Congke and Shi Jingjiao rotated.
The guards shook their heads to show that they didn't know, and between the two inquiries, Li Shaocheng calmed down, "Pass my general's order: the number of enemy troops is not large, and attacking the camp is self-defeating, but it saves me the pain of attacking the city tomorrow, and orders the Jingyan army to assemble and stand by, and kill the enemy with this commander later!" But whoever makes a fuss or makes a noise, behead! ”
The guard answered, and Li Shaocheng turned around and returned to the account, "Come on, give this general armor!" "The armor is heavy, the steps of wearing are complicated, and I am too slow to put on the armor.
At this moment of coming out of the tent, Li Shaocheng had roughly seen the movements inside and outside the camp, and at this time, his palms were sweating, and he was by no means as light as he appeared.
Listening to the voice, Li Shaocheng knew that the comers were extremely fierce, and the offensive was very urgent, and he had won the method of robbing the camp. Ten miles of camp, chaos is not small, in addition, the moon is dark and the wind is high, I can't tell how many enemies come, the north mountain up and down, the horns and drums, resounding through the camp, as if there are thousands of troops and horses, have surrounded them, making people frightened, and, the vanguard army, now it can be said that the lone army is deep, the main force has not yet arrived at the sword gate, this situation, how can you not panic?
When Li Shaocheng was dressed neatly and led his horse out of the camp, the camp was already in chaos, the enemy army was still gone, and his own soldiers had already begun to run in all directions, pushing and shoving each other, shouting and shouting, and in the middle of running, he knocked over the brazier and lit the military tent, and the firelight everywhere aggravated the chaos, and the commotion was overwhelming, which shocked people dizzy and their eardrums were cracked.
"Li Shaocheng is here, where is the Jing Difficult Army?!" Li Shaocheng shouted loudly, ordered the guards to unfurl the handsome flag, and asked the guards to contact Li Congke and Shi Jingjiao's people, but they didn't contact the other party - but they haven't yet.
In the dark night, the camp exploded, and Li Shaocheng desperately gathered his soldiers, got hundreds of people, and rushed to the front camp to intercept the thief army. Halfway through, he was scattered a lot, so anxious that he was sweating profusely, and suddenly, he saw a general, who was his own armor and robe, and ran over to see who Shi Jingjiao was, grabbed him, Li Shaocheng split his head and covered his face and asked: "General Shi, why did you retreat?!" Without waiting for the other party to answer, he said in a loud voice: "Hurry up with the general, and lead the troops to meet the enemy!" ”
Shi Jingjiao was also sweating profusely, seeing Li Shaocheng, he was stopped by the other party, listened to the other party's words, and exclaimed: "The attack on the camp thief army, I don't know how to go, and the momentum is huge, and it has entered the camp in chaos. After speaking, he persuaded Li Shaocheng: "General Li, the military camp is in chaos, and the soldiers can't be gathered, so it's better to withdraw first, don't let the thief army take advantage of the chaos, kill and injure too many talents, wait until the dawn, gather the soldiers, and it's not too late to regroup and fight again!" ”
The military camp is in a mess, full of rampaging soldiers, shouting and running around him, making people's scalp numb, Li Shaocheng is anxious to resist the enemy to defend the camp, tear open his voice, and bitterly state the benefits: "Today, our side Kejianmen Pass, occupy Jianmen County, the situation is very good, Jianzhou is in front of us, a little effort, that is, we can steadily occupy Jianzhou, at that time, the two rivers can be determined!" Once you retreat tonight, not to mention that Jianzhou is difficult to overcome, the thief army will pursue the situation, and Jianmen County will also have to be lost, and the good situation will be ruined! ”
Seeing Shi Jingjiao's eyes flickering, looking left and right, still without the intention of rejecting the enemy, Li Shaocheng couldn't wait, and his voice changed: "General Shi!" I am quiet and difficult to army, half a moon gallops thousands of miles, blood stains the seven villages of Jianmen, countless casualties, finally open the situation, dare not say bitter! But the fifty sharp soldiers of the Military Intelligence Department, in order to send the map out of the customs, rushed to die after breaking off halfway, how tragic and magnificent, even caused the people who went out of the customs, there is not more than one out of ten! There is no one out of ten, General Shi! The blood of the sons, do you want to ignore it like this, General Shi! Retreat at this time, thousands of lives will be ruined, General Shi! ”
Shi Jingjiao sighed heavily, and shook off Li Shaocheng's hand to grab him, "General Li, why are you so obsessed, the camp is frightened in the middle of the night, the general trend has gone, the number of enemy troops is unknown, and it is menacing, you can see General Li who can fight again like this, General Li"
Li Shaocheng couldn't delay, no longer wasting time with Shi Jingjiao, drove his horse forward, raised his lance and shouted: "Li Shaocheng is here, you will kill the enemy with Ben!" ”
Seeing Li Shaocheng going upstream, running forward with two or three hundred people, Shi Jingjiao stomped his feet with hatred, but he had no intention of helping, and continued to run away.
Walking less than a hundred steps, touching Li Congke, the other party asked urgently: "General Shi, are you okay?" Just be fine! Hey, did you see General Lee?! ”
Shi Jingjiao's old face turned red, and he pointed behind him, "Li Shaocheng has gone to meet the enemy!" ”
"This," Li Congke was speechless.
"Third brother, it's too much to wait, let's go, escape early, and gather the soldiers as soon as possible!" Shi Jingjiao pulled Li Congke and left, "It's too late!" ”
Li Congke hesitated for a moment, sighed in annoyance, and followed Shi Jingjiao away.
Li Shaocheng ran to the front camp to resist the enemy, the enemy did not encounter much on the road, but was hit by his own chaotic army, staggered, unable to move an inch, he simply got off the horse, while shouting that Li Shaocheng is here, while trying to gather the soldiers, but helplessly, the general trend has gone, the soldiers are scrambling to flee for their lives, and few listen to his orders.
Moreover, the soldiers of the former battalion, who are the vanguard of tomorrow's siege, are not the headquarters of the Jingyan Army, but the Protector Army and the Baoyi Army, and no one knows Li Shaocheng, and they are unwilling to fight against it, but they break up their ranks.
Li Shaocheng ignored it, and finally came into contact with more enemy troops, stepped forward with his sword, and fought against them. In the blink of an eye, the troops killed dozens of enemies, but their own casualties were several times greater - the reason for this was that they were trampled by friendly soldiers.
I don't know how long it took, after killing the enemy in front of him, Li Shaocheng turned left and right, and there were only twenty or thirty people beside him, and the military camp was chaotic like a tsunami, and he was already weak. Blood-stained, Governor Li Shaocheng couldn't do anything, and cried out in mourning: "The good situation is ruined in one fell swoop, ruined in one fell swoop!" Tell me how to face the King of Qin, how to face the King of Qin! ”
shouted a few times, but because his heart was too depressed, his chest was extremely uncomfortable, and he suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood, his eyes were dark, and he almost wanted to stand unsteadily.
"Dashuai!"
"Dashuai!"
The general Ding Mao, who was shocked when he saw this, hurriedly stepped forward to support Li Shaocheng, and his anxious tiger eyes were full of tears, "The general trend is like this, it is not a crime of war, the marshal must not blame himself too much!" ”
Li Shaocheng's body shook a few times, but he finally stood firm and grabbed Ding Mao, "Paper and pen?" Where is the pen and paper? Can you have pen and paper? ”
Ding Mao glanced around and saw a scribe lying on the ground, stepped forward to search for a while, got a pair of pen and paper, and handed it to Li Shaocheng.
Li Shaocheng moistened the tip of the pen with his mouth, and worked hard to write on the spot, and after writing, there was another mouthful of blood, which was sprayed on the paper, and he didn't care too much, and stuffed the letter to Ding Mao, "Give it to King Qin!" ”
"Dashuai" Ding Mao saw that Li Shaocheng's face was too pale, and his heart was like a knife, he looked down, saw the content of the letter, and couldn't hold back anymore, tears welled up. The letter reads: The Tun army was attacked in the middle of the night, Shaocheng couldn't defend it, lost a good situation, and it was difficult to redeem death!
"Give it to King Qin!" Li Shaocheng once again admonished Ding Mao and pushed Ding Mao away, "Go, go quickly!" ”
Ding Mao almost gritted his teeth, but the military order was difficult to disobey, so he turned around and left. After two steps, he felt that something was wrong, he turned around, and saw Li Shaocheng in front of the knife, looking up to the sky and roaring, "Your Highness, don't blame, Shaocheng is going!" "Swing a knife and kill yourself.
Ding Mao was so shocked that he didn't have time to think about it, so he pounced.
