Chapter 556: The people in troubled times are not as good as dogs, and the king only has to win the battle
Originally, the Dingbei Garrison Regiment assisted the beggar army and supported Ran Tuhu, but Li Deyi was the first to propose. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info He saw that Ran Tu Hu could lead a group of kneeling slaves to bravely resist the Tuliao wolf beasts, so he had a good impression of him, thinking that he was a character and could be called a hero.
Li Deyi even once thought that Ran Tuhu was also a true hero who cared about the lives of poor people, not those "heroes of the world" who only wanted to be famous and wealthy and regarded the people as prestige props.
knew that before just now, Li Deyi had always been very optimistic about this beggar army composed of kneeling slaves, thinking that they could make a situation and do something big.
However, Li Deyi could not have imagined that not long after this beggar army turned over, it stretched out its hand to the innocent people who were once like them.
"A bunch of human-skinned beasts! Why was I blind in the first place, helping these scumbags who are indiscriminate! Li Deyi couldn't help but scold, and then angrily found his senior brother, shouting that he would send troops to punish Ran Tuhu.
Commander Xiao Liu had also heard about this, and he had long expected that his junior brother would inevitably rush over to find him in anger later. The head of Xiao Liu knew in his heart that his junior brother was from a flat-headed common people, and he beat his father because he was forcibly recruited Ding Zhuang and never returned. Later, the eight-year-old mother was gone, which can be said to be because of the war, which led to the destruction of his family. Later, the Saiwaiyi people followed the invasion and plundering of the Tuliao Kingdom, and slaughtered the village where he grew up, killing his third grandfather, his only relative.
Therefore, his junior brother hated the soldiers abusing the people very much.
But Commander Xiao Liu is much calmer, this time the news is from the businessmen who went south and north, and it is not the first-hand information of the Dingbei Garrison Regiment. What's more, now Liu Yiyi is at war with Ran Tuhu, pouring dirty water on each other, which is also the usual trick of these warlords.
Leaving his junior brother there, Commander Xiao Liu thought calmly for a while, and finally did not agree to send troops immediately.
Recently, there have been a lot of things in the Dingbei Garrison Regiment, and they are all major events. First of all, a group of elite first-class soldiers are still studying in the Dingbei Military Academy and have not yet graduated. These elite first-class soldiers will inevitably not be able to fight at this time.
In addition, the training of recruits has just been completed, and although the recruits seem to have been polished to a brilliant and bluffing place, they have not yet seen blood, so they are still unable to go into battle.
The most important thing is that a new batch of cavalry of the Dingbei Garrison Regiment is also being trained.
Sending troops at this time is very unfavorable to the overall situation of the Dingbei garrison regiment.
Head Xiao Liu explained the reasons to his junior brother one by one, and Li Deyi gradually calmed down.
As the senior brother said, sending troops now is indeed harmful to the Dingbei Garrison Regiment. In order for the generals not to raise troops out of anger, although Li Deyi hated the beggar army for slaughtering Nanpi City, he could not take the lives of his brothers to calm his anger. The lives of the people of Nanpi City are fate, and the lives of the brothers of the Dingbei garrison are also fate.
In the end, the two brothers discussed and decided to adopt a compromise strategy. First, cut off aid to the beggars as a warning. Second, send a messenger to warn Ran Tuhu and ask him to restrain his soldiers and horses and not to have anything like this happen again.
After Ran Tuhu was warned by the Dingbei garrison, he really relented.
Two months passed, and the battle between Liu Yiyi and the beggar army became increasingly fierce.
The two sides have been fighting for two months, and the beggar army has been pressing Liu Yuyi's soldiers and horses.
Ran Tuhu was indeed a first-class general in the world, reacting keenly to changes in the situation on the battlefield, and was often able to seize fleeting warplanes and inflict heavy losses on Liu's army.
Although Liu defeated a large number of soldiers and horses, he had not commanded so many soldiers and horses for many years, and it was inevitable that some military orders were not smooth.
After several battles with Liu Yiyi's soldiers and horses, Ran Tuhu had gradually figured out the details of his opponent. He decided to start with the 30,000 soldiers and horses commanded by Shi Luan, the general on the left side of Liu Defeat, and defeated the soldiers and horses on this road first.
After several encounters, Ran Tuhu found that although this Shi Luan was the commander of the army all the way, he was very timid. Every time there is a battle, it takes a lot of time to gather intelligence before he is willing to attack. Although it has not suffered any losses, it has also delayed a large number of fighters.
Ran Tuhu brushed a trick, so he set up a suspicious formation, which made Shiluan's army on the left hesitate, and gradually disconnected from Liu Yi's soldiers and horses in the middle. Then Ran Tuhu seized this opportunity, took a small road to raid, and personally led the elite under his command to charge into battle, defeating the 30,000 soldiers and horses on the left side of Commander Shi Luan.
Then, Ran Tuhu led the beggar army to follow behind the defeated army, taking advantage of the rout to unsteadily rush the array of Liu Defeatyi's Chinese army, and Liu Defeatyi's Chinese army panicked and quickly launched a fierce attack.
Liu was forced to take command of the battle in a hurry, but his soldiers had not been in battle for many years, and they had almost been abandoned by him, and in this kind of bloody battle, he was no match for the beggar army that crawled out of the pile of dead men.
In this battle, Ran Tuhu knew that it was a crucial battle. If you can succeed in one fell swoop, you will have no worries, and if you are defeated, you will be defeated. Therefore, Ran Tuhu also took out his blood and staked all his foundations.
In the begging army, Ran Tuhu specially organized 3,000 tall and sturdy soldiers to serve as his own personal soldiers. These pro-soldiers usually eat the best food and use the best weapons. Even Ran Tuhu himself ate and lived with this group of soldiers. Even when the whole army of the beggar army was hungry, Ran Tuhu would try his best to feed the three thousand soldiers.
These 3,000 strong soldiers are Ran Tuhu's killer trump card!
This time to attack Liu Yiyi's Chinese army, Ran Tuhu directly lined up 3,000 personal soldiers at the forefront of the army, and he himself took the lead and took the lead in the first charge.
These 3,000 tigers slaughtered into Liu Defeatyi's panicked Chinese army, like a hot knife cutting through grease, easily tearing through Liu Defeatyi's front.
With just one charge, Ran Tuhu crushed the front line of Liu Yiyi's Chinese army.
Although Liu Fuyi has been addicted to wine over the years, he has three catties of nails in a bad ship. He knew that this was a crucial battle, and he bred up his spirits and desperately dispatched his troops and horses to try to stop the beggars' charge.
Fortunately, Liu defeated many soldiers and horses, and he really stabilized the position with this effort.
Although Ran Tuhu was brave, with only 3,000 strong soldiers, it was difficult to turn his advantage into victory for a while. The two sides became entangled.
Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses on both sides strangled together and began a bloody and brutal hand-to-hand hand-to-hand battle.
After more than two hours of fierce fighting, in the end, the beggar army crawling out of the pile of dead people was more resilient and could endure the fierce fighting. Liu Yiyi's well-armored rich soldiers and horses were finally defeated and began to flee.
Ran Tuhu was keenly aware of this, and knew that victory was just around the corner, and he was immediately overjoyed!
Unexpectedly, Ran Tuhu was just about to order the whole army to pursue, when a rumbling sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded in the distance.
It was Guo Youwei's 15,000 vanguard cavalry who arrived in time!
It turned out that Liu Weiyi relied on his many generals and excellent armaments, and before the war, he did not take the beggar-like beggar army in his eyes.
He gave Guo Youwei an order to take the first step to cut off the back road of the beggar army. After his soldiers and horses defeated the begging army and defeated it, Guo Youwei led the vanguard cavalry to cooperate and surround all the beggar army, and don't let one go!
Although Guo Youwei wanted to admonish, he couldn't disrespect the order before the battle, so he had to say a few words in a row, urging the lord to act carefully, and finally acted according to the order, leading 15,000 vanguard cavalry to cut off the back road of the beggar army.
Who knew that in this battle, Ran Tuhu had no way back at all! In other words, the beggar army has no way back at all.
The sixteen states of Yanyun have been ravaged by the wolf beasts for many years, and they have long been in ruins. Ran Tuhu is not good at management, and he can't support tens of thousands of beggars at all. If this battle is lost, even if Ran Tuhu escapes with the remnants of the beggar army, sooner or later he will slowly die of sleepiness.
Therefore, the battle of Ran Tuhu was a battle against the water, and there was no way out at all.
At the appointed hour, Guo Youwei didn't see the beggar army routing, so he knew that something was wrong. He pondered for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and ordered to return to help.
Guo Youwei took the elite cavalry under his command and hurried straight to his lord's Chinese army.
Thankfully, he arrived just in time, if he had arrived a few moments later. The beggar army will completely defeat Liu Defeatyi's 80,000 Chinese army, and Liu Defeat's life may not be guaranteed.
Ran Tuhu turned his head and saw this fifteen thousand elite cavalry, and knew that he had no chance to kill Liu Yuyi, and he had to withdraw immediately. He shouted angrily, took off the big bow behind his back, opened his bow and took an arrow, and shot an arrow at Liu Yuyi's luxury car tent.
It's a pity that although this arrow hit Liu Luoyi's car tent Shuai Qi, it failed to hit Liu Shiyi, and the legendary arrow broke the Shuai Banner, and this good thing did not happen.
Ran Tuhu roared angrily and ordered the withdrawal of the army.
Guo Youwei didn't dare to pursue the beggar army without authorization, and hurriedly went to rescue his lord in the chaotic army.
After the battle between the two sides, Liu Zhiyi's soldiers and horses no longer dared to fight with the beggar army, and began to defend the city.
Liu Fuyi fled back to Yecheng in embarrassment, fled back to the palace with carved beams and paintings, plunged into the pile of fat powder, and refused to come out.
Guo Youwei and other generals saw that their lord was so obsessed, except for shaking their heads and sighing, they all felt that the prospects were a little bleak.
Ran Tuhu took advantage of this opportunity to defeat two small cities in Lianke Liu, and finally had a foothold in Shanghe Province.
Although these two cities are small cities, for the poor beggar army, it is tantamount to entering a rich and noble township.
When the beggar army saw such good things in front of him, he was inevitably a little uncontrollable. At the beginning, the beggar soldiers still cared about Ran Tuhu's military order, and only dared to loot property, but did not dare to kill people at will.
Slowly, things are getting bigger and bigger, and the beggar army is robbing more and more conveniently, and it is difficult to satisfy the appetite of the beggar army just by plundering small doors and small households. Finally, a soldier of Ran Tuhu led his brothers to smash open the door of a large family's house.
The daughters and maids of large families and concubines are all very smart. When a group of red-eyed Ran Tuhu soldiers saw these rich women, they couldn't control the stuff under their crotch anymore, and dragged the woman who was watching the house into the house and ruined it.
When the rich man saw that his daughter was being ruined, he went crazy directly, and rushed up to find Ran Tuhu's personal soldiers desperately. He was an old rich man who had been pampered for many years, and his body was already very weak, and he was severely beaten by the wolf-like soldiers under Ran Tuhu, and he actually died with a whimper.
When these soldiers saw that they had killed someone, they simply killed the family without proof, and finally set a fire to try to burn it all.
With these Ran Tuhu's pro-soldiers taking the lead, gradually there will be more such things. The people of the two cities were slaughtered and plundered by the beggar army, and their suffering was unspeakable.
Although Ran Tuhu repeatedly ordered his soldiers not to commit crimes again, he only paid lip service to it, and in fact never punished his soldiers. Even in private, Ran Tuhu thought that this would maintain the fierce and bloody nature of his subordinates and help kill the enemy on the battlefield.
Ran Tuhu had just recently defeated Liu Yiyi, and it was the time when he was full of ambition, and he had already forgotten the warning of the previous Dingbei garrison.
As for the people who died tragically, Ran Tuhu didn't think about it at all. What he is thinking about now is how to further achieve a greater victory and completely defeat Liu Yuyi.
Through the previous battles, Ran Tuhu has been keenly aware that the soldiers and horses under Liu Yiyi's command are not strong, and they are far less capable of fighting than they seem. Ran Tuhu had already moved his mind and wanted to try to annex Liu Yiyi.
But if they want to continue fighting, the beggar army must expand its troops.
Then, with a wave of his hand, Ran Tuhu ordered to recruit troops in the two cities he had laid! A large number of young people were forcibly conscripted into the begging army, and they did not have enough weapons, so they took a sharpened wooden stick, which was a weapon.
Ran Tuhu's personal soldiers took advantage of this opportunity to reap the benefits, and for a while, I don't know how many people died.
