Chapter 391: Fiasco

When He Renlong led a large army into the territory of Anhua County, he was always a little uneasy.

He was praised as "He Maniac" by Liukou, this fame was not obtained casually, it was fought in blood and fire.

He Renlong was willing to fight hard, and his temper was also impatient, and he personally went into battle at every turn, Hong Chengchou criticized him many times, but when it came to the end, he couldn't help it.

This time with 25,000 foot soldiers, and then rushed to Qingyang Mansion, He Renlong was still a little reluctant, after all, the cavalry is an elite force, and it has played an important role in the eradication of the Liukou, which cannot be replaced by foot soldiers.

A few months have passed, and there have not been many major battles, just following the ass of the rogue, following the pursuit all over the mountains, it is impossible to get many great results, although it is said that some rogues have been eliminated, but it has not hurt the root of the rogue. This time, Liukou was preparing to attack Qingyang Mansion, and He Renlong held back his strength, and he was finally able to meet the main force of Liukou.

The sky is gray and the sky is in the middle of summer, which is rare.

"Report, my lord, there is Yima Pass in Anhua County ahead, ten miles away from Anhua County, and sixty miles away from Qingyang Mansion."

"I know the way, go to explore the way, if there is any situation, always report it."

After the scout left, He Renlong spoke to the lieutenant general beside him.

"It's late, there are many people in the army, it's impossible to go to the county seat, in my opinion, let's set up camp in the area of Yima Pass, let the soldiers rest well, and tomorrow rush to Qingyang Mansion to make peace with Lord Hong."

The lieutenant next to him nodded and did not speak.

He Renlong spoke again, a little muttering.

"Grandma's, Liukou said that it was an attack on Qingyang Mansion, so many days have passed. I didn't see it, what the hell do you mean, could it be that the army has arrived, and it retreats without a fight, it's too cowardly. ”

The lieutenant next to him spoke with a smile on his face.

"The rogues must be afraid of Lord Hong and the general. I heard that the imperial army had come to the rescue, and I had already run away without a shadow. ”

He Renlong had a smile on his face, looking very complacent, he liked to listen to such flattering words the most.

The topography of Yima Pass is somewhat special, surrounded by mountains on three sides, with a large open space in the middle, and some small slopes around, it seems that this is indeed a good place to raise horses.

Inside the middle of the clearing. Not to mention that more than 20,000 people are stationed, even if 100,000 people are stationed, there is not much of a problem.

He Renlong was still very careful, and ordered the scouts to reconnoiter the surrounding terrain, and asked the sergeant to be on guard, which was the basic requirement for camping, considering that he would be able to go to Qingyang Mansion tomorrow, although he noticed that the sergeant had a lazy mood. He Renlong didn't reprimand him extraordinarily, after all, everyone leaned on their legs. After walking for nine days, I feel tired from the iron beating.

He Renlong's own nerves were also a little relaxed, and he rushed here from Fengxiang Mansion, thinking that the military situation was urgent, but who knew that Lu Dao Liukou had not attacked Qingyang Mansion City at all, according to the information from Lord Hong Chengchou. When the Liukou saw the cavalry rushing to help, they quickly moved and did not continue to besiege the city.

In his impression, for more than a year, the rogues have suffered many heavy blows. In a short period of time, there is no way to recover at all, this time thinking about attacking Qingyang Mansion City, it is estimated that he is desperate, thinking about getting some grain and grass and supplying it.

After the hour, he inspected the military camp on one side, and He Renlong also returned to the Zhongjun tent and prepared to rest.

When the time came, this was the time when the sergeants slept most soundly, and even the sergeants of the guards were a little unable to lift their spirits.

The surroundings were still quiet, but in the middle of this quiet, there was a hint of unease.

The moon hid in the clouds, and the surroundings were a little unclear, and the distance that the torches could shine on was also limited.

In the middle of the sky, there was a sudden sound of rustling, and pieces of fire came directly.

Several sergeants of the guard, before they could speak, were shot, and the clothes on their bodies quickly burned, and the sergeants rolled on the ground with screams coming out of their mouths.

Quite a few tents were set on fire.

It turned out that all the arrows that came were arrows with fire.

The sirens sounded quickly, and the sergeant, who was not shot, shouted hoarsely and attacked the enemy.

He Renlong, who was sleeping, had a strange dream, dreaming that he was walking in the fire, and the temperature around him was very high, and the roasting person was very uncomfortable. When the deputy general rushed in, He Renlong realized that he was probably not dreaming.

Rushing out of the Chinese military tent, the surroundings were still bright, and many tents were set on fire.

In the middle of summer nights, the breeze blows, and the fire burns more vigorously with the help of the wind.

In a hurry, the sergeants scattered out of their tents, and some did not even have time to get dressed.

He Renlong's eyes were red with anger, he didn't expect that he was about to arrive at Qingyang Mansion, but he was attacked by a sneak attack, he loudly ordered his own soldiers around him, quickly gathered the sergeants, and prepared to meet the enemy.

Just as he gave the order, a trembling drum sounded.

Countless rogues have come over.

In the middle of the firelight, it could be clearly seen that these rogues, with red turbans wrapped around their heads and steel knives and spears in their hands, rushed towards them with the sound of the drums of the attack.

The first to rush was the cavalry of the Rogues.

He Renlong's face turned pale, he flew on his horse, raised the spear in his hand, and rushed towards the Liukou.

The deputy general was so anxious that his face turned blue, at such a time, He Renlong, as the commander-in-chief, should be the time to organize the army to resist desperately, and rushing towards the Liukou can only be the courage of a horseman, after all, there are more than 20,000 soldiers.

He Renlong is worthy of being a madman, and he rushed up and killed several rogues.

It's a pity that his efforts have no effect.

The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and the screams had spread widely, and the rogues rushed up in waves.

The foot soldiers were still experienced in battle, and after a short period of confusion, they immediately began to counterattack, and they formed a square formation according to the usual formation, holding their spears aloft, to deal with the rogue cavalry who rushed to the front.

Unfortunately, there are too many of them.

These rogues, I don't know what kind of medicine Lu Dao has taken, they are not afraid of death, and they rush forward desperately.

The line of foot soldiers slowly broke up.

The sergeants who were scattered immediately fell into the siege of the rogues, and the results were self-evident.

After killing a few rogues, He Renlong came to his senses and began to shout at the soldiers around him, asking the sergeants to get closer, not to separate, and not to be scattered by the rogues.

Many crossbowmen, looking at the situation of the melee, helpless, the bows and arrows in their hands could not shoot out, the enemy and us were mixed together, and the bows and arrows shot out, who knew whether it was the rogue or his brother who fell.

But in a quarter of an hour, the army of the imperial court began to be overwhelmed.

Seeing that there was about to collapse, He Renlong's eyes were almost bursting with sparks.

This can't be blamed on He Renlong, who ambushed more than 25,000 soldiers, as many as 100,000 people.

Liukou has made a bloody investment this time, and they must annihilate the imperial army, their leader, no matter how much loss, as long as they can annihilate this imperial army, they will be able to quickly calm down the situation in Shaanxi.

100,000 against 25,000, the disparity in numbers is huge.

Moreover, the imperial army was caught off guard by the battle, and there was no time to make much preparation, and the long journey and the surprise were taken off guard, this battle, from the moment it began, was doomed to the end.

More than half an hour has passed, and the imperial army has begun to collapse.

The adjutant general has already begun to persuade He Renlong, and rushed out of Lu with his own soldiers, leaving Qingshan without worrying about running out of firewood, as for the besieged army, it can start to break through, and it can break out of Lu as much as it wants.

He Renlong painfully accepted such a suggestion, and he had to accept it.

There have been countless battles, and the situation on the battlefield can still be judged, although the sergeants are desperately killing the enemy, but the number of rogues is too large, and the people have made careful preparations, and they will not give up until they reach their goal.

An hour later, He Renlong rushed out of the encirclement with more than 100 personal soldiers.

Of the three hundred pro-soldiers, less than half rushed out, and the rest died in the stagecoach.

As for the rest of the sergeants, it is not known what the situation is.

The order to disperse the breakout has already been given.

This order, which was really stupid, and the sergeants who were still desperately killing the enemy immediately knew that they were surrounded by heavy sieges and had to flee for their lives.

The loss of fighting spirit means that the moment of defeat has come.

Except for a few sergeants, who were still in a fixed formation, desperately resisting, most of the queues dispersed on their own, and the sergeants began to flee for their lives.

The Liukou do not have much strong combat effectiveness, the vast majority of the Liukou, used to be homeless, although after a short period of training, but did not really go to the battlefield, they are under the leadership of the small leader, desperately rushed forward, forgetting fear, forgetting death, only knowing that the road rushed forward, it was such a fierce charge that was not afraid of death, coupled with He Renlong's error in judgment, so that the balance of victory was biased in their favor.

The massacre began, whether it was a surrendered sergeant or a wounded sergeant, the rogues did not let go, all of them were killed, and at this time, the sergeants began to wake up, resistance is death, and non-resistance is death, and they began to resist again.

It's a pity that such an awakening came too late.

The sergeants who broke out of the encirclement were only a small part, and these sergeants, after rushing out of the post horse pass, fled in the direction of Qingyang Fucheng.

Most of the sergeants fell into despair, they mechanically raised steel knives and spears, and the mechanical ones were cut to the ground, and they had no fear.

Stagecoach Pass has become a hell on earth.

The sea of swords and blood, the sound of steel knives chopping bones, the sound of spears piercing the body, one after another, short screams came out from time to time, and the firelight gradually became smaller.

Two hours later, the Stagecoach Pass began to fall silent.

A leader of the Liukou on horseback appeared here, with a cold and excited look on his face, this person was none other than Gao Yingxiang, the leader of the Liukou. (To be continued......)
