Chapter 12 Meritorious Service in Rushing to the Car

Yang Xuangan and Li Mi rushed out of the big tent, and a raging fire had been lit in front of the big camp between them, and huge fireballs continued to fall from the sky in the dark night sky, smashing into the big camp!

There were also shouts around the camp, and the sound was getting closer and closer, and the sound of the horses' hooves could be heard. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Don't mess up, don't panic, form a formation to resist the enemy, and prepare to resist the enemy's surprise attack!"

Yang Xuangan climbed to a high place, raised his arms and shouted, the soldiers were in a panic at this time, after seeing the main general come out, they immediately gathered around him, and soon, Yang Xuangan gathered thousands of people, but at this time the army was still in chaos, the Sui army broke through their camp from the south of the camp, and entered the camp, and in the east, the enemy was shooting arrows into the camp, and the fireballs thrown by the trebuchets also flew from this place.

Yang Xuangan immediately shouted: "Go, follow me to the south gate!" ”

Yang Xuangan's army was camped in the north of Shangchun Gate, and the south gate was facing Luoyang, so it was the most heavily defended place in their camp, Yang Xuangan was secretly afraid, but fortunately the enemy army did not know and chose to attack the south gate, if they broke through from the west gate or from the north gate, then they would be in danger.

There are nearly 100,000 people in the rebel camp at this time, the fire and chaos just now made them a little panicked, only a small number of them are from the regular army, and most of the rest are recruited by Yang Xuangan along the way, they have received training for a short time, so they are not qualified soldiers, in this sudden situation, many people are inexperienced and do not know how to deal with it, if Yang Xuangan did not stand up in time, they are afraid that they have been defeated.

Although Yang Xuangan can control only a few thousand people now, but when they approached the south gate, the soldiers in the battalion also spontaneously followed one by one, and soon gathered into a team of more than 20,000 people, after they came to the south gate, the defensive pressure on the south gate was suddenly reduced a lot, the number of defenders in Luoyang City was not much, Liu Zhi dispatched 20,000 of them to sneak attack, just to take one by surprise, but once the other party was prepared, they could not take advantage.

But today's situation is a little different, the Sui army launched a kind of chariot when attacking, this kind of chariot is as high as two zhang, a battle wide, the front is the same as the blade car, arranged with weapons, but it is not a blade, but an iron gun, behind the iron gun is a wall, there is a row of pedals behind, the soldiers stand on the pedals, hide behind the car wall, use the iron gun to assassinate the enemy, this kind of chariot is very tricky even on the flat ground, not to mention near the small camp gate, they are like a solid wall, Blocked in front of the rebels, they were helpless, and they were forced to retreat.

Yang Xuangan was anxious, he knew about this kind of rush, it was a siege equipment designed by Zhuge Liang when he came out of Qishan when he was used to crack the Chen Cang of Wei State, but the height of the rush designed by Zhuge Liang was much higher than this, the height reached more than five zhang high, there were five floors up and down, of which the soldiers on the lower floor pedaled with their feet to urge the chariot to move forward, and the soldiers above held spears to attack the defenders on the city wall, Zhuge Liang finally relied on this weapon to break through the Chengcang garrisoned by Hao Zhao, and Hao Zhao was defeated and killed, Chengcang City was also successfully taken by the Shu army.

Although the chariot in front of him was not as powerful as the one designed by Zhuge Liang, the defenders also lacked a way to deal with it, and dozens of soldiers jointly picked up a siege cone, trying to knock this chariot away, but before they could get close to the chariot, they were stabbed to death by the soldiers inside with bows and arrows and spears.

Yang Xuan felt helpless, so he could only order the soldiers to retreat from the south gate and retreat from the north gate, at this time, the fire in the camp was getting bigger and bigger, and it was impossible for them to spend too long with the Sui army at the south gate, and the camp was obviously unable to stay.

It's just that Yang Xuangan didn't expect that before his army could withdraw from the south gate to the north gate, he heard an earth-shattering shouting sound from the north gate, and a large number of cavalry rushed in from the north gate, and the defenders were slashed and killed in an instant, Yang Xuangan was taken aback, the Sui army in Luoyang City had no cavalry, which army was this? Did the reinforcements of the Sui army arrive?

This army is the 15,000 troops that came from Henan, among them there are 3,000 cavalry, and once the size of the cavalry exceeds 1,000, it will have a very strong combat power, and 3,000 people can directly attack the camp.

Yang Xuangan was taken aback, and hurriedly asked his younger brother Yang Xuanting to go forward to meet the battle, Yang Xuanting's side just stopped the cavalry, and the infantry of the Sui army followed, and with the cavalry, Yang Xuanting's 5,000 people were surrounded in the middle, Yang Xuangan immediately led the army to the rescue, and the two sides fought in the camp into a mess, you have me, I have you, and the night was intertwined into a sleepless night by the fire of war and shouting and killing.

The morale of the rebels was not good at the beginning, but at this time, seeing that the Sui army surrounded itself from many directions, the morale dropped faster, Yang Xuanting's 5,000 people were on the verge of rout under the attack of 3,000 cavalry and 12,000 infantry, and Yang Xuangan commanded 30,000 troops outside to quickly defeat the 5,000 Sui army, but the resistance of the Sui army was also extremely tenacious, they were not like the rebels, most of them were recruits, most of the Sui army were veterans, and they were elite troops. Their fighting power and will to fight are also far stronger than those of the rebels.

Yang Xuangan originally only had 50,000 troops, and these 50,000 troops were pulled up by him in Liyang, many of which were secretly formed in his hometown of Hongnong, and they were replaced with the regular equipment of the Great Sui Army in Liyang, and the weapons and equipment were not bad, but there were many of his teams that were expanded along the way, and the number of these people was also quite a lot, but the equipment and training were not as good as the previous troops, and at this time, these people were the shortest plank in Yang Xuangan's bucket.

Just when the camp was fighting hard, a group of men and horses rushed out from the west, and Yang Xuangan's head was stunned, because this army was flying the banner of the Sui army, and it was also a cavalry, what surprised Yang Xuan the most was that the general of this army was actually Yujuluo!

Yang Xuangan's fighting spirit in his heart was lost half of it at once, and the soldiers under his command had begun to be chaotic at this time, and the five thousand cavalry rushed into the camp like a mountain of mountains, like chopping melons and vegetables, and the rebels were scattered at once, and everyone could see that the rebels were powerless to return to the sky.

Li Mi looked at the chaotic camp, sighed, shook his head, took a horse, and when no one was paying attention, he rushed out from the north gate, and went east.
