The history of Lishi's establishment began in the Warring States Period, the Zhao State was named Lishiyi, Qin belonged to Taiyuan County, and the Western Han Dynasty placed Lishi County, which belonged to Xihe County. The pen %fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Eastern Han Dynasty Yonghe five years (140 years) Xihe County moved here, and the counties at the end of Emperor Ling were abolished. In the second year of the Wei and Huang dynasties of the Three Kingdoms (221), the county was restored; Jin belongs to the Xihe country, the first year of Yongxing (304) the Xiongnu left marshal Liu Yuan raised troops against the Jin, and placed the capital in Lishi. The name of Lishi is due to the fact that there is Lishishui (now Beichuan River) in the northeast.

Nearly two hundred miles away from Xicheng County (now Fenyang), Xue Gongling is a hill that is not big or small, it is the commanding heights of the throat of Jin and Shaanxi, Liu Conghu and Liu Ang led the soldiers and horses with 4,000 people, it can be said that all the family in their tribe poured out of the nest, and they were marching all the way to meet Liu Qin. They chose to suddenly launch an attack from Lishi City in the middle of the night, and caught the Jin army by surprise, and in less than half an hour, they broke out of the encirclement with very few casualties, the key is that the number of troops used by the Jin army to besiege the city is not very large, and the reason why the encirclement is not thick.

When we marched to the foot of Xue Gongling Mountain, the sky was already bright, and Liu Conghu instructed Liu Ang: "Order, the whole army will repair the original underground horses, send rangers to patrol, and push forward for ten miles to see if there are any Jin army ambushes." ”

Liu Ang said: "Father, the total strength of the Jin army is only twice as much as ours, and it is still stretched for the siege of the city, how can there be more troops to ambush us, before dark, we have to get out of Xue Gongling, we can't delay any longer。。。。。 ”

Liu Conghu snorted: "For the general, every major event must be calm, the more anxious the more you can't be careless, the ranger sentry reconnaissance is the pioneer of the army, in the case of unknown enemy situation, it is the way to seek death if you rashly enter the army with your own assumptions." ”

Although Liu Ang was not convinced, he didn't dare to show it on his face, and responded respectfully "yes", and then turned his head to arrange the matter of the sentry investigation.

Liu Conghu did not dare to slack off, although the army dismounted and rested, he did not leave the saddle, people did not take off their armor, and continued to wander around their camps, seeing the sergeants dismount after three or three, two by two, sitting together in a bunch of east and west, Liu Conghu couldn't help but be furious, he suppressed his anger and ordered the heralds: "Quickly order the leaders of each battalion to come to see me." ”

After a while, several leaders arrived, and they were just about to salute, but they were stopped by Liu Conghu: "See for yourself, if the Jin army comes to attack at this moment, how can we fight this battle?" ”

Everyone looked at the staggered soldiers, and couldn't help but look at them, and someone said boldly: "Last night, I rushed out of the encirclement overnight, and the soldiers were indeed tired。。。。。。 ”

"Are these reasons? It's not the first day that you have led the troops, like this, you can't form a camp, don't take precautions, if the Jin army kills at this time, you don't have to fight, we will immediately become a plate of scattered sand. Liu Conghu sank his face and reprimanded: "Each of them went to organize their own teams, put the horses and vehicles on the periphery, and formed a large defensive array of carriages and horses. ”

The people did not dare to defend any more, and went down separately to form a camp. The snare drum was less than three times, 4,000 people surrounded the big tent of the Chinese army, placed the carriages and horses on the periphery, the people lined up in the array, the bow and crossbow defense was prepared, and after looking at the orderly array, Liu Conghu showed a look of satisfaction on his face.

When Ma Long arrived with his soldiers and horses, he saw the large array of chariots and horses that were huddled together and impermeably defended like hedgehogs, and his heart couldn't help but feel terrified. The Jin army had no cavalry, so they hurried all the way, and when they finally caught up with Liu Conghu, Ma Long was still a little happy. According to his expectations, Liu Conghu was anxious to meet Liu Qin, must be a rapid advance, the formation is not in order, he led more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, as long as he can catch up with the opponent's rear team, bite them to the death, Liu Conghu will inevitably have to come back, at that time, the impact and mobility of the Hun cavalry can not be brought into play, with the infantry's melee advantage and strength advantage, the Huns will naturally collapse into an army, and the father and son of the Liu family will naturally be captured in the chaos. What he didn't expect was that Liu Conghu was in a hurry to help Liu Qin, and he was steady and steady, step by step. I can't help but be impressed by Liu Conghu's ability to lead troops.

The two armies were separated by a distance of two or three miles, and the Jin army slowly stopped advancing, which was also a safe distance that a bow and crossbow could not shoot. Only then did the leaders of the Xiongnu battalions sincerely admire Liu Conghu's measures to urgently adjust the deployment just now. If it is even a little late, if the Jin army launches a sudden charge at this moment, the Xiongnu are afraid that they will already be defeated.

Liu Conghu anxiously asked Liu Ang: "Has the sentry reported the military situation ahead?" ”

"Not yet." Liu Ang replied, "Father, what should I do now?" Do you hold on or do you charge? ”

Liu Conghu was silent, and looked into the distance: "Have you seen the other party's Chinese army commander's flag?" ”

Liu Ang took a closer look: "Father, the horse flag is hung up, could it be that the other party's coach Ma Long has arrived?" ”

Liu Conghu snorted: "I really look up to us, the commander personally led the troops to chase, you immediately sent a team of cavalry, bypassed the Jin army's defense line, rushed to Lishi City from behind their flanks, and reported to Shan Yu, telling him that we dragged the local commander, and the opponent's siege force must be empty, let him send troops out of the city to attack the Jin army with us, as long as we can kill the other party's commander, we will win the battle of Lishi." ”

Liu Ang hesitated for a moment and asked, "Father means that we will not move, drag the other party, and wait for Shan Yu's main force to come and flank the front and back?" ”

Liu Conghu nodded: "The other party is infantry, and they can't run fast, so they don't dare to withdraw their troops easily, we have a chariot and horse formation to defend, and it is not so easy for them to win, the fighter plane is fleeting, you hurry up and arrange people to report to Shan Yu." ”

Liu Ang immediately came to his senses, couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurried down to make arrangements.

Seeing from a distance that two or three hundred cavalry rushed out from the rear of the Hun cavalry array, bypassing their barracks from a distance and galloping in the direction of Lishi, Ma Long suddenly realized that it was not good, and he immediately ordered: "The whole army listens to the order, the shield bearer is in the front, the crossbowman is in the center, and the pikeman is in the back, ready to attack." With the sound of golden drums, the formation was quickly adjusted. Liu Conghu ordered: "Prepare the crossbowmen, defend the big formation, do not attack, do not retreat, and those who violate the order will be killed." ”

The confrontation between the two armies began with the first round of bow and crossbow shooting, the Huns were good at riding and shooting, and the Jin army had a shield to protect themselves, this first round turned out to be quite a match, but the horses placed outside the formation were different from people, although they were firmly fixed in place with a tethered horse stake and could not move, but they were also spinning in place, and they couldn't stop neighing, and many horses with arrows fell down violently, and the formation was chaotic. Liu Conghu shouted loudly: "Fix the horses and strictly guard the formation." As long as the opponent is dragged in this battle, it is a victory, and don't be reluctant to fight the horse. ”
