Chapter 438 The Battle of Luoyang (1)
After taking back Luocang's Wagang Village, with the momentum of Shizihe's great victory, it expanded nearly 100,000 people in a blink of an eye! In fact, there should have been more disaster victims coming to join Wagangzhai, but last year, Wanhe released grain in Gong County for disaster relief, and many of the affected people had food, so they naturally didn't want to do that headless thing! However, even so, with the nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses of the original Wagangzhai, the army of Wagangzhai has expanded to 200,000 troops! And this time, Zhai Rang and Li Mi also rushed to Luoyang City with a large army!
Hearing this news, Luoyang City, which was already in chaos, suddenly became a pot of porridge! The originally prosperous Eastern Capital has also become depressed, with ten rooms and nine empty! And Yang Tong, the king of Yue, also had to give an order to let the people who stayed in the eastern capital hide in the inner city, in case the thieves of Wagangzhai suddenly attacked Luoyang!
About five miles away from Luoyang City, Zhang Qian, the leader of the bandits of Qian County, and Li Wenxiang, the leader of the bandits of Wei County, who had just taken refuge in Wagangzhai, led 5,000 soldiers and horses to rush towards Luoyang City. They were ordered by Li Mi to go to Luoyang as a vanguard army to make a tentative attack!
Zhang Qian and Li Wenxiang, who rushed to the front, were both excited, and they couldn't wait to put a pair of wings on their backs now, and then fly directly to Luoyang City! Zhang Qian and Li Wenxiang are both bandit leaders who make small troubles in Xiaocheng County, and they usually rob in the ravines and ravines around Qian County and Wei County, not to mention Luoyang City, even those big cities in the vicinity have never seen it! This time, I just took refuge under Wagangzhai, but I didn't expect to be able to attack a super city like Luoyang City!
In the minds of Zhang Qian and Li Wenxiang, there is no idea that the city wall is difficult to break, and the Wagangzhai army can even defeat the Imperial Forest Army, which is known as the strongest army in the world, so what else can't be defeated? As the saying goes, it's good to enjoy the shade with their backs against a big tree, and now that they have climbed such a big tree as Wagangzhai, won't they eat and drink spicy food in the future, and they can do whatever they want?
I heard that in Luoyang City, even the bricks laid on the street are made of gold! The women in the city are all watery, like fairy daughters in the sky! As long as they are killed in Luoyang City, can they do whatever they want? Thinking of this, Zhang Qian and Li Wenxiang couldn't help but hold their saliva, now that they think about it, maybe it was really the gift they gave to their brother Zhai Hong half a month ago that played a role! Hehe, when I gave the gift, it was still a little painful, but now it's all back all at once!
Thinking of the gold and silver jewelry and countless young and beautiful young women that were about to arrive, Zhang Qian and Li Wenxiang became more and more impatient, and the two of them rode on fast horses and kept whipping their horses, and at the same time shouted a few times behind them from time to time, shouting to let the subordinates behind them speed up!
"Whew!" At this moment, suddenly a sound of breaking the air sounded from the side, and I saw a black shadow grazing through the sky, directly shooting towards Li Wenxiang, who was rushing to the front! Li Wenxiang was shocked, and instinctively flashed his head to the side, and then, a sharp pain came from his ears, so painful that Li Wenxiang fell directly from the horse, covering his ears and rolling on the ground screaming! And that black shadow passed through Li Wenxiang's ear, and finally shot through the throat of a volunteer soldier!
"Who?" Seeing Li Wenxiang suddenly suffer like this, Zhang Qian, who was originally side by side with Li Wenxiang, was also startled, hurriedly restrained his mount, looked left and right, and didn't care about any majesty, he just jumped off the horse and hid next to the horse, for fear that he would end up with the same fate as Li Wenxiang!
"It hurts me!" On the other side, Li Wenxiang gritted his teeth and got up from the ground, and his hand was taken off the injured ear, but he found that his hand was slippery and greasy, full of blood! This Li Wenxiang is also a ruthless person, seeing that he was shot off an ear by someone else for some reason, Li Wenxiang was angry! Shouting at the top of his voice, "Damn! Who is it! Who is it! Who the fuck dares to plot against you Grandpa Li! There's a kind of get out of here! ”
"Whew!" There was another sound of breaking the air, and this arrow was even faster than the one just now! Still in a hurry! As soon as Li Wenxiang turned his head, he just saw the arrow come into view, and before Li Wenxiang could react, he heard a muffled sound, and the arrow directly pierced Li Wenxiang's head, and the feathers at the end of the arrow were still trembling up and down! Li Wenxiang's whole body was fixed there like that, and his face still maintained that hideous with a trace of anger, and with a hint of horror in anger, and finally his body shook and fell to the ground!
Li Wenxiang's death, Zhang Qian was so frightened that he didn't even dare to show his head, put his body on the horse's body, and shouted at the rebel soldiers who had stopped behind him: "Still, still, what are you doing there?" Didn't you see an enemy attack? Why don't you come and protect me? Come here! ”
was reprimanded by Zhang Qian like this, and those righteous soldiers woke up like a dream, and they pulled out their blades one after another, guarding around Zhang Qian, and three thousand soldiers surrounded Zhang Qian tightly! In this way, Zhang Qian dared to stick his head out from behind the horse, and cautiously glanced at the corpse of Li Wenxiang on the ground next to him, and his body couldn't help but tremble. The pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info it is a loss that Li Wenxiang has just taken a step faster, otherwise, it is very likely that he is lying on the ground now! Although Zhang Qian had killed a lot of people, the thought that he had almost been shot through the head like this, Zhang Qian's back couldn't help but feel a chill!
Following the direction of the arrow on Li Wenxiang's head, Zhang Qian cautiously raised his head and looked to the left front, where there was only one hill, obviously, the person who shot the dark arrow was hiding on the hill! After determining the goal, Zhang Qian immediately shouted: "Quick! Send 500 men first! Go get a hill and find out! ”
Five hundred people is indeed a little less, but this is already the largest number that Zhang Qian can accept! If there are more people to send, won't there be fewer people around you? Zhang Qian was worried that the enemy would suddenly appear from the other side and catch him off guard!
The five hundred soldiers of the Righteous Army also cautiously advanced towards the hill, which was only about five hundred steps away from Zhang Qian's side, but these five hundred people walked for half an hour! Finally, the five hundred men and horses had already walked to the side of the hill, and Zhang Qian also swallowed nervously, for fear that at this time, more than 10,000 officers and soldiers would suddenly jump out from behind the hill! Then it will be bad! Zhang Qian was even ready, as long as there was any problem, he would immediately step on the war horse, turn around and run!
"Drive!" At this time, suddenly, a shout came from behind the hill, but I saw that several cavalry suddenly came out from behind the hill, and the horses rushed directly in the direction of Luoyang City! Seeing this scene, Zhang Qian and the five hundred volunteer soldiers were all stunned, and after a long time, Zhang Qian reacted! It was these cavalrymen who dared to attack!
Feeling that he had been tricked, Zhang Qian's courage seemed to come up all of a sudden, and he gritted his teeth and shouted: "Chase!" Pursue! Gotta catch me! I'm going to skin them alive! And with Zhang Qian's order, the three thousand soldiers also chased after those cavalry, and Zhang Qian took the lead! Only Li Wenxiang's body was left in place, and it seems that it has been forgotten!
It's just that it doesn't seem to be so easy to catch up with those few cavalrymen, and the war horses they sit on are obviously carefully selected good war horses! Although Wagangzhai is now huge, but such a luxury as a war horse, only people above the leader are qualified to use it, and even the mount that Zhang Qian is driving is just an ordinary war horse, and it is not so easy to catch up with those cavalrymen with excellent riding skills!
chased for three or four miles, but Zhang Qian, who was still full of anger at first, felt more and more that something was wrong. Because at this moment, they have completely deviated from the previous official road, and before they know it, they have chased into a forest! Looking at the surrounding environment, it is either woods or hills, and the road forward is getting narrower and narrower, if it is attacked by the enemy at this time, then ......
Zhang Qian didn't dare to think about it anymore, and immediately strangled the reins, stopped his mount, and shouted: "The whole army stops!" Chase it no more! ”
After all, the rebels were still only rebels, not to mention that many of them were newly recruited recruits, which suddenly halted the advance, and immediately made the already not very neat queue even more chaotic. I could hear the soldiers around me pushing and muttering, and even developed into a state where they were about to start fighting! Zhang Qianna was even more frightened, and shouted: "Quick! Fast! Retreat! Fall back! ”
And not long after Zhang Qian's order was issued, he heard a bangbang sound coming from the woods next to him, and then, Zhang Qian felt that the figures in the surrounding woods were longing, as if so many people suddenly appeared, so frightened that Zhang Qian immediately slipped off the horse, and looked at the situation left and right in a panic. And those rebel soldiers also reacted similarly, in such a strange situation, all they could do was keep going backwards.
"Humph!" At this moment, a cold snort came from outside the forest, and then countless sounds of breaking the air and playing strings were heard, and then, a series of firelight immediately shot into the woods, in addition to bringing a burst of tragic exclamations, it also caused the dazzling firelight! Suddenly, the whole forest was shrouded in the firelight, and from time to time the smell of burnt paste and burnt meat came from the woods! And there are many soldiers who seem to want to escape from the woods, but they are beaten back by the officers and soldiers who are guarding the surroundings! In the blink of an eye, the 3,000 soldiers and horses who rushed into the woods were already wiped out!
