readx; The Battle of Yangzhou, which lasted for several days, finally reached the critical moment of deciding the outcome of the battle. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The sudden counterattack of the Tianxiong Army was by no means a whim of Lu Xiangsheng, but a precise arrangement in advance. The Tianxiong Army's lone army will definitely attract the main force of the thief cavalry to chase after it, and Li Laiheng, Liu Quanzhong and other troops will have an opportunity, and this step has been achieved so far.

But to annihilate the main force of the thieves, it is not enough to have a fire attack. Because the main force of the thieves are cavalry, they will inevitably flee after discovering the fire, and the officials and soldiers inside and outside Yangzhou City add up to only 10,000 people, and the cavalry is only a few thousand horses, and they are very tired. At this point, Zhu Youzhen also repeatedly warned Lu Xiangsheng, because he knew that his righteous brother would not die as soon as he started a fight, and Cao Wenzhao was also this problem, and Cao Wenzhao in history suffered this loss, fell into the siege of thieves and committed suicide.

Therefore, Zhu Youzhen strictly ordered Lu Xiangsheng to annihilate the enemy under the city of Yangzhou, and Lu Xiangsheng has been meditating on how to complete this extremely difficult task for the past two days. After thinking about it, only when the fire attack is improvised, seize the opportunity to launch a sudden counterattack, come to "capture the thief and capture the king", and eliminate the leader of the thieves such as Lao Huihui, it will not be difficult for the rest of the troops to be calmed. Of course, this plan is not foolproof, and it can even be said that it is very risky, but Lu Xiangsheng has no choice. Anyway, after all, there is Yangzhou City as a backing here, and it is much better than letting the thieves run away and then chase them.

In the fierce battle for more than an hour before, Lu Xiangsheng and his Tianxiong army had been waiting for this opportunity although they were rushing around in the camp of thieves. They first killed the relatively weak He Jinbu, and then "led" tens of thousands of cavalry from Lao Hui Hui, Ma Jinzhong and other troops to circle around Yangzhou City several times.

The long pursuit made the cavalry on both sides, including the war horses, exhausted. However, the Tianxiong Army is well-trained in peacetime, and can still maintain a good formation at this time, and has a certain ability to counterattack. The thieves are chasing more and more urgently, and the more they chase, the more chaotic they become, and the team of tens of thousands of horses is long, and there is a bit of disconnection between the front and back.

Lu Xiangsheng had noticed this situation a long time ago, and deliberately asked the soldiers to leave some armor, dry food, water bags and other things, one is to reduce all unnecessary burdens, save horsepower, and the other is to lure thieves into being fooled.

The enemy is not a ghost, and Sun Cha is cold and hateful

Sure enough, as the so-called "thief nature does not change", although the thieves also have military discipline, but as soon as they see good things, some people immediately throw the military order of what is in charge of the plate out of the clouds, in their rebellion and war is to grab things, others who love to chase King Lu Yan will chase it, I will first dip this bit of cheapness and then talk. As a result, the ranks of the thieves were even more chaotic, and later only more than 10,000 cavalry clung to the Tianxiong army, and the gap between the two sides had been greatly narrowed.

At this moment, the Tianxiong army happened to run to the southwest corner of Yangzhou City, and the pursuers behind them were located near the west gate of Yangzhou City. At this time, the fire in the north was already formed, and the billowing smoke was carried by the howling north wind, and pressed towards the south like a black cloud in the sky, and the thieves were terrified, and they all stopped their horses and looked back. Although Lao Huihui hysterically urged his subordinates to continue to chase Lu Xiangsheng, but as the so-called "things don't care, care is chaos", the north of Yangzhou is Lao Hui's camp, his wife and children are caught in the sea of fire and life and death, who doesn't panic?

Moreover, the location of Lao Huihui is not far from the dirt mountain of the West Gate. When the thieves launched a general attack just now, in order to save trouble, they opened a big hole in Tushan here. This earthen mountain is a natural barrier against fire, and rushing in from here is the west gate, which can be attacked and defended. It must be known that the fire is ruthless, there is no distinction between the enemy and me, and when it really burns, the officers and soldiers must also dodge, otherwise the jade will be burned.

So whether it's breaking the enemy or self-preservation, now is the perfect opportunity. Lu Xiangsheng was willing to miss such a good opportunity, immediately turned the horse's head, struggled to pick up the iron sword, and shouted to kill the thieves. At this time, there is no need to issue any orders or do any mobilization, the boss's action is the best mobilization! In an instant, the battlefield was full of shouts and killings from the Tianxiong army, and before the thieves could fully react, the two armies had already engaged!

Lu Xiangsheng's tactics are very simple, that is, to capture the thief and capture the king. He didn't know the "old Huihui" Ma Shouying, but he knew that Ma Shouying called himself "Huiying", and his subordinates were all Huihui, who only wore armor without helmets when fighting, and wrapped his head with a white scarf, which was very easy to identify. Therefore, where the white turban is the densest, he rushes wherever he goes, and the big knife of more than 100 catties flies up and down, invincible, and soon kills the thief's heart. The Tianxiong army behind followed closely, and an extremely tragic melee began.

Lao Huihui is known as a brave among thieves, and he is also red-eyed at this time. He had already set his eyes on Lu Xiangsheng, and personally led hundreds of elite horsemen to surround Lu Xiangsheng and storm it. At this time, Lu Xiangsheng only had Gu Xian and dozens of personal soldiers around him, and the situation was quite unfavorable, and more than half of them were killed in a moment of engagement, and Lu Xiangsheng was also wounded in many places. Seeing this, Lao Hui let out an arrogant sneer, thinking that with a maximum of half a meal, he could kill Lu Xiangsheng in battle, and no matter how big the loss was, it was worth it!

At this critical moment, when he heard the chaos behind him, Lao Hui looked back in shock, only to know that Yangzhou City suddenly opened the west gate, and a team of cavalry suddenly came out. At this time, the earth and mountain outside the west gate were full of rogue infantry besieging the city, and it stands to reason that the defenders would not open the city gate at this time no matter what. But the city gate was opened, and before the rogue infantry could react, the cavalry in the city had already swarmed out, brandishing a snowy saber, and rushed through the gap in the earth mountain in the blink of an eye!

The situation on the battlefield is often so fast-changing that victory or defeat is the difference between victory and defeat. For the thief infantry, they had been trying to break the city but couldn't, but now the city gate suddenly opened, of course, they were overjoyed, and they rushed into the door with a wild cry without thinking about it.

But since the defenders dared to open the city gates, they were already prepared. As soon as the thieves approached the doorway, ten thousand arrows were fired inside, and because the arrows were too dense, the thieves who rushed in front were shot like porcupines. But the thieves behind didn't know it, and they were still rushing desperately, and the thieves outside the door couldn't advance or retreat, and the casualties were extremely heavy.

And the cavalry that rushed out of the city gate, although there were less than fifty horsemen, were like a sharp spear, ignoring the other thieves on the battlefield, and stabbed directly at the old Hui Department besieging Lu Xiangsheng. Almost all of them used one-handed sabers, only the leader of the general was holding an iron spear in both hands, and in the rogue army, he was like no one in the land of the thief army, and in the blink of an eye, he penetrated through the encirclement, and directly took the old man with a white turban wrapped around his head in the golden armor of his body.

The far-reaching hatred of the ship is made up of hatred

The old man was horrified, and he was anxious to protect himself, but he didn't care about the other, and suddenly heard the roar behind him like thunder, and before he had time to turn around and feel that the heavenly spirit was cold, he didn't know anything...
