The twenty-first round of the first battle is thrown
But it was said that the horse Hongyuan was underestimated by a horse in the night, so he was angry and ordered the cavalry to rush towards the rebel camp. Tang Wanqian discussed with the generals how to fight, but the order came to report that someone had robbed the camp. At that moment, Tang Wanqian smiled and said: Where is this robbery camp? Who's going to check it out? The crowd will be silent. At this time, Dong Zhentian got up and said: Big brother, little brother is willing to go! Tang Wanqian nodded. The general of the horned beast helmet also said: The little brother is also willing to go with him! Tang Wanqian said: It is not easy for you to escape with your life several times, and now you can't make a mistake! He had no choice but to bow his head and sigh. So Dong Zhentian took the goose wing gun and got on the horse, led a team of cavalry, and just arrived at the gate of the camp, he ran into Dou Yunpeng head-on.
Dong Zhentian said: You came so fast! Dou Yunpeng said: How? So Dong Zhentian immediately danced the goose wing gun and fought with Dou Yunpeng. Countless rebels rushed out from behind the camp, and Ma Hongyuan arrived at the moment and began to fight with the Praetorian Cavalry. Tang Wanren heard the shouting outside, so he had to go out of the camp with the generals to watch, Ma Hong looked at Tang Wanren from afar, so he put aside the spear beside him, and rushed over with his horse. Dong Zhentian immediately returned to the horse to catch him, and Dou Yunpeng followed closely behind. At this time, the rebel general of the horned beast helmet rode on the horse and ushered in with a double knife, Ma Hongyuan slashed with a big knife, Dong Zhentian saw a real shot in the past, but was separated by Dou Yunpeng's double whip, so the two pairs of men and horses fought. The generals who fought more than 30 of the horned beast helmets were invincible, and Ma Hongyuan took the opportunity to fall off the horse with the handle of the knife, and was about to cut it, Tang Wanqian rushed over and kicked Ma Hongyuan off the horse!
Dou Yunpeng saw Ma Hongyuan fall off the horse, and rushed to the whip at the moment, Ma Hongyuan could only climb on his horse's back, Dou Yunpeng turned around to leave after catching him, Tang Wanpeng made a knife to cut down on the horse, Dou Yunpeng whipped his right hand and turned the horse back, Tang Wanqian couldn't catch up, so he had to ride Ma Hongyuan's horse to chase over. Dong Zhentian kept entanglement with Dou Yunpeng at this time, but he could not defeat him, he fought all the way out of the camp, and the guards also withdrew after the killing, and the people and horses retreated while fighting, and walked less than three or four miles, and then Xiao Liang led the soldiers from the west of the city to kill, Ma Hongyuan saw that there was a horse galloping nearby, so he jumped up, but unfortunately there was no knife, so he could only run behind. It was impossible to see how many people and horses there were in the night, so Xiao Liang rushed over with a gun. Seeing Dou Yunpeng's chest, he stabbed down, but the other party turned sideways, raised the whip with his left hand, and whipped with his right hand, and hit Xiao Liang's left shoulder, he screamed and fell off the horse, and the gun in his hand flew out, and Ma Hongyuan just caught it and said: Thank you! So Dou Yunpeng rushed all the way over, and those government soldiers couldn't stop it and retreated.
At this time, Tang Wancheng's horse team came, Ma Hongyuan injured his right chest, so he didn't dare to fight, so he ran in front, and the Praetorian cavalry also went north of the city like a wave. Dou Yunpeng was still with fifty horses after the break, Dong Zhentian came to entangle again, the two fought thirty times, Tang Wanqian arrived, he picked up the big ring knife and rushed over to help the battle, the three of them fought more than twenty times, Dou Yunpeng double-whipped, and then returned to the horse and left, and the rebels kept chasing behind. Seeing that the camp was not far away, Dong Zhentian restrained his horse, and Tang Wanqian also returned to the horse to shout that the army stopped, but shouts broke out on both sides, and Dou Ying led the Black Flag Army to attack from both sides. Tang Wanqian expected that he would not be able to defeat his father and son, so he turned his horse and Dong Zhentian to collect troops and return to the camp. The Black Flag Army did not chase either, and Dou Ying's father and son returned to the camp north of the city.
Ma Hongyuan entered the city all the way, and the captain ordered more than 100 cavalry, but there were many kills and wounds of the rebels, so those generals were very happy. However, Ma Hongyuan was injured in the right chest by Tang Wancheng, so he hastily reported to Emperor Cheng and went back to recuperate. The Dou family's army was naturally proud of its victory for a while, which annoyed Tang Wanyan, the commander of the righteous army.
Tang Wanqian heard the report that Xiao Liang was seriously injured and is now being treated in the camp, and all departments lost no less than 1,000 men and horses during the night. Therefore, he was restless, feeling that if he continued like this, he would lose the opportunity to take the city. Now if you don't want to defeat the Black Flag Army, you can't regain the initiative, but now in the camp, the only people who can fight with Dou Ying's father and son are himself and Dong Zhentian. So he made a battle plan, planning to wave the whole army to launch a desperate battle tomorrow, if he didn't win, he could only hate the injustice of the sky.
Here our brothers drank heartily, Emperor Cheng heard that the Praetorian guards attacked, and returned victorious, but Ma Hongyuan was injured, so he wanted to find Liang Jin and them to discuss the city defense, but learned that we were drinking in the governor's mansion, and he was very angry at the moment, so he rushed over. Sure enough, several of us were almost unconscious, and Liang Jin saw that the emperor had come to ask for the guilt, so he said: Your Majesty is relieved, there is the Imperial Forest Army to guard, and there will be no Yu tonight. Emperor Chengdao: But now that General Ma is injured, what should he do? Liang Jindao: Since there are generals and colonels in order, today's rebels have suffered a defeat, and tomorrow they may fight with all their might, so the brothers are drunk here, after tomorrow, there may be no such opportunity, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive! When Emperor Cheng heard this, he said: Since this is the case, why is it not called Shangyi? Liang Jin was stunned, so Emperor Cheng also picked up the cup and got drunk.
At the next hour, the three gates of the rebels and the various camps all sounded their horns in unison, and people and horses were stirred everywhere. The guards of the city came to report, Liang Jin sat on the lobby and said: Sure enough, it's here! Today's battle is not trivial, if you can't resist it, you will lose all your efforts! Seeing that my Youzhou army is approaching, all departments must resist to the death, and the enemy wants to fight jade, you must be prepared! The more eye-catching the beacon fire is, the better, and I hope that the surrounding officers and soldiers can send troops to help! Those will be called yes! So Liang Jin assigned his duties, Zheng Tianbai, the prefect of Cangzhou, and the captain of the Imperial Forest Army to guard the east gate, the garrison commander Han Baiwen and the general soldier of the Royal Forest Army Wang Fu guarded the south gate, the deputy general of Yancheng and himself sat at the west gate, and the Black Flag Army still guarded the north camp of the city, and assigned me and the captain of the Royal Forest Army Ling to take 500 archers to sit at the north gate to support the Black Flag Army. The other generals were in the city as reinforcements, ready to be dispatched at any time. Emperor Cheng was still in the Mingyue Tower, protected by 2,000 men and horses of the Imperial Forest Army.
The allocation of the governor of the capital has been completed, and I have actually received the task, so I will lead people to the city with the captain. I thought to myself, this north gate is guarded by the most powerful Dou family army, and those rebels don't dare to attack it easily! Thinking of this, the lieutenant saw that I was young, so he asked me to sit on the top of the tower, and he himself nervously went back and forth. As far as I could see, the rebels poured out, and the 100,000-strong army was coming, and the momentum was so great that the earth shook, and I felt as if my feet were trembling. So less than two quarters of an hour later, the south side of the city started first. Han Baiwen was still responsible for boosting morale, and Wang Fu and his lieutenants commanded with swords, and they endured no less than 20,000 horses there.
After a while, I saw Dong Zhentian's flag rushing over, and Tang Wanqian also commanded the men and horses to run over. So I immediately called someone to inform Liang Jin that the enemy coach was now at the north gate. Of course, I couldn't sit still at the moment, so I jumped up and looked at the city, and I saw the Black Flag Army out of the camp and lined up, confronting Tang Wanqian and Dong Zhentian, and then Tang Wanqian suddenly waved his army to cover up and kill, in a vain attempt to fight more and less, he took the lead to resist Dou Ying, and Dou Yunpeng was intercepted by Dong Zhentian. However, at this time, the general of the horned beast helmet led an army to bypass the camp and came directly to the city, and the captain of the Ling military academy immediately gave the order to prepare for war! I stretched out my head and watched. Then the rebel saw me, and raised his bow and shot at me, and the lieutenant grabbed me, and the arrow went aside. So the rebels attacked, and the captain shouted left and right, directing the soldiers to greet them with arrows and hot water.
At this time, I was at a loss for what to do, and occasionally an arrow flew overhead, whizzing. As soon as I looked down, I saw a ladder in front of me and it began to shake, and it looked like someone was climbing. I looked around, and there were no extra manpower, and I ran over in a panic, and just as a soldier climbed up with a knife, he was stunned when he saw that I was a child and had no blade in my hand, so I couldn't care much about it, and kicked him down. So I looked down in fear, and one of the soldiers below stretched out his knife and came to stab me, but when I turned over he didn't stab me, so I lowered my head and hid behind the wall. Sure enough, after a while, the person climbed up, I heard it clearly, and stood up with my head, but the other party saw that there was no one on either side at first glance, and I was directly pushed to the bottom of the city. This time I saw him fall and fall to pieces, so frightened that I immediately ran to the castle tower, grabbed a soldier and pointed back: Someone has come up over there! When several soldiers heard this, they immediately ran over.
I saw that the captain was killing the enemy by the wall, but the enemy didn't know where it came from, there were so many of them, and the killing was endless. The Lieutenant had just cut down a man who had boarded up, when he suddenly screamed, took a few steps back and fell. When I looked, there was a soldier with a gun coming up from below, and a shot shot shot him in the thigh. The soldier immediately stabbed the other soldier, jumped off the edge of the wall, and went straight to the captain to stab him. As soon as I turned around and grabbed the cushion on the chair, I saw that the soldier raised his gun and threw it over, and he was dazzled, and I rushed over and pushed him backwards by the waist, and he fell straight off the wall when he was unsteady on his feet. I looked at the edge of the wall, the Black Flag Army below was surrounded by countless rebels, and the murder was fierce, but it was powerless to prevent the rebels from bypassing the battle line to attack the city wall, and there were many rebels gathered here in the north of the city, it seems that the main force of the enemy's attack is here!
The Governor was wounded, so he sat down in his chair and commanded, and I immediately called a soldier and asked him to call for help, and informed the Governor that the enemy's main force was here. So I picked up a spear, and then ran from side to side, telling the soldiers that I hoped they could withstand it, and when I saw the rebels coming up in the city, I didn't care about the many, so I closed my eyes and stabbed hard, so I resisted before the reinforcements arrived! Seeing the elite of the Imperial Forest Army coming to the city, I finally breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, the general of the horned beast helmet personally landed in the city, and he and dozens of swordsmen actually climbed up from the corner on the right, and the Imperial Forest Army could not stop it at the moment, and began to retreat.
I took my gun and watched as several of the soldiers in front of me were cut down by the rebel with his saber, so I stepped back, until I leaned against the wall, and the gun was out of my hand, so I had to take the dagger out of my boot. He struck the men on both sides, and when he saw me alone with a dagger, he raised his sword and struck at me. A thought flashed through my mind at the moment, I am dead! Suddenly there was another flash, as if to see it really, the general's movements did not seem to be as fast as I imagined, as if the moment he swung the knife, I saw his right rib exposed...... So as soon as he lowered his head, he pierced it with both hands.
He didn't expect me to resist, but before he could dodge, the dagger pierced into his soft armor along the gap in his armor, and about an inch inside, he twisted his body and took a few steps back. As soon as I saw it, I immediately picked up the gun and stabbed it, but he slashed it with a click. Then he slashed at my head again with the pain, and I struck the handle of my gun, and it was the same place again, and he screamed in pain and retreated, and saw that my back was against the wall, and for a moment I could not get close, so he turned and ran. I was frightened, picked up the bloody dagger on the ground, and tried it with my sleeve, but found that the dagger was thinly engraved, which seemed to be the year, month, day and hour, I don't know what it meant. I reinserted the dagger back and looked around with my stick to see that the swordsmen who had landed in the city had been killed by the Guards. At this moment I came to another corner, and a man suddenly pounced, and I hurriedly dodged, only to find that it was the rebel with the horned beast helmet, who seemed to be wounded and could no longer stand.
I leaned over to his chest and listened, and I noticed that there was breathing. So I removed his beast-faced helmet and found that he appeared to be a white child of fifteen or sixteen years old. So I immediately unarmed him, and found that he had suffered only one wound, the knife I had stabbed. However, when I checked it, I accidentally touched his chest and found that it was soft and soft, and it seemed to be bumpy and bumpy, she was a female general! I was taken aback. So I immediately stripped her of her armor, picked her up and ran down the city, pulled her by the horse, and led her directly to the infirmary. I told the old doctor that I would save her, and then rode back to the north of the city.
At this time, the rebel offensive was not reduced, Liang Jin saw that the situation at the west gate was slightly stable, so he left Yancheng soldiers and horses to defend it, and he personally led the team to rush over, just as the rebels had already driven the captain and the Imperial Forest Army to the city, but those soldiers would guard the city gate and prevent the rebels from seizing the gate. Liang Jin immediately swung his knife to kill, I saw that it was him on the side, and he also picked up a big gun and danced back and forth, so a group of people fought back upstairs, just as the rebels were ready to rush the door, and the Royal Forest Army immediately put down the hot soup and arrows, so the rebels could not rush the door. Then Liang Jin slashed his knife and slaughtered all sides, and those rebels were invincible, so I followed him to fight soy sauce in the back.
As soon as the rebels pushed us to the stairs, reinforcements arrived in time to strike at the tower. The battle line changed repeatedly at the castle tower and the steps, and at this moment it was completely fighting for numbers and fighting spirit, and my eyes were full of blood, and I didn't fight much myself, and I was also covered in blood at the moment. At this time, our reinforcements gradually decreased, and the time for the battle line to retreat to the steps increased. Liang Jin was really tired from slashing people and chopping his hands, so he had to pull me to sit on the upper horse stone below to rest. The adjutant general informed that almost all the soldiers and horses in the city were now out, and there was really no manpower, and at this moment, the rebels' men and horses were still logging in from the city wall. Liang Jin sighed and said: It's only a matter of time before the goal is broken this time, there is no way! I was sweating, but my heart was only thinking about the rebel general who was stabbed by me.
Then I heard a sound outside the city gate, and dust was constantly falling on the gate. Liang Jin reluctantly lifted the knife with both hands and said: The destiny of heaven is over! I immediately stood up and pulled him and said: You can't fight anymore, don't go! He said angrily: Lao Tzu is the dignified governor of Cangzhou, how can he let the traitors run rampant! Talking about it! With a bang, the door was slammed open! Liang Jin dragged the knife and walked over, I grabbed the spear and ran to the side, and I saw countless rebels with spears rushing over, fifty steps, forty steps, twenty steps!
Come on! As soon as we turned around, we found that the spearmen of the Imperial Forest Army had pushed over, and Emperor Cheng was wearing soft armor in the back, and with a wave of his fan, he said: How can I be defeated without a fight! At this time, the soldiers and horses in the city could not withstand it, so they withdrew, and together with the new Royal Forest Army, blocked the gate, and temporarily became a battle line. The generals were all injured and persuaded Emperor Cheng to avoid fleeing, but Emperor Cheng refused. He waved his hand and said, "How can I not believe in my destiny!" After that, he heard the northeast cannon of the city sound, but it was the Bingzhou army under the command of Chen Yun that detected the rebels attacking the city, so they waved the whole army to attack. The rebels were attacked behind them, and there was no general in charge, so they wavered and gradually reduced their offensive. As soon as Emperor Cheng unfolded his fan, he waved and said: Chen Yun, this kid has finally arrived! So I saw that the side of his fan was written in writing.
However, at this time, in the Tang Wanqian array, a general rushed out and came directly to the door, urging the army to enter the city, threatening to capture Emperor Cheng alive, so the rebels were active again, regardless of being attacked from behind, and fought with all their might. The general made a long knife in his hand, directly separated the crowd and rushed to the emperor. The Imperial Forest Army couldn't stop it, Liang Jin immediately swung a knife to cut him, he flicked his long knife, Liang Jin had already lost all his strength, and then he took off the knife and fell aside, fortunately not injured. However, the general went straight to Emperor Cheng, Emperor Cheng had no one in front of him, he looked at me in horror, I saw it on one side, picked up the stone and threw it hard, hit the horse's cheekbone, and was frightened and stopped neighing. The rebel saw that he could not miss the opportunity, so he had to roll off his horse and rush over with his sword.
Emperor Cheng immediately returned to his horse and left, but the general refused to let go, strode over and threw the knife, hitting the leg bone of Emperor Cheng's mount, so Emperor Cheng's horse fell to the ground, and he was thrown to the ground. The Imperial Forest Army shook and saw it, and immediately ran over a few captains, but the general drew his sword and slashed three people in a row, and rushed directly to Emperor Cheng. I grabbed the big gun and ran over, but after all, it was a little slower, and then grabbed the sleeve of Emperor Cheng and said: Faint Jun! Go to hell! Raise your sword and stab, and listen to me: Medium! He screamed, and vomited blood from his mouth, Emperor Cheng turned on one side, and the general struggled a few times, his fingers tightly clasped the ground and his head tilted and died. Emperor Cheng was immediately frightened, and saw that the rebel general was hit in the back by a big gun and inserted diagonally into the back of the heart. I said in my heart, this emperor should not be killed, let me throw it! So Emperor Cheng tried sweating, and the fan in his hand was unfurled, which was the word Tiancheng.
Sure enough, just when the rebels were persistently attacking and had broken through the north of the city through the tactics of the sea of people, the cannon came from the northeast again, and the flag came from the sun, with high characters written on it, it was the king of Pingbei, the governor of Youzhou, Gao Qi! As soon as Tang Wanqian heard that it was Gao Qi who arrived, he was surprised at the moment, but he didn't expect him to arrive so quickly. Gauge commanded 20,000 iron cavalry to rush first, divided into eight teams, and attacked the rebels from eight directions. At the moment, the smoke and dust are everywhere, the Youzhou soldiers will be new, and the spirit is flourishing, and the rebels who were killed for a while did not leave a piece of armor, and the entire rear army was folded at the moment. Gao Qi personally led 3,000 cavalry to attack from the rear of Tang Wancheng, and the 30,000 troops in the rear also ran to the north of the city.
Tang Wanren's department is now blocked by the Black Flag Army, and there is Gao Qi's new force behind him, and there is chaos immediately. Dou Ying immediately commanded the Black Flag Army to change from defense to offense, and rushed towards Tang Wanqian head-on. Tang Wanqian knew that he would lose once he was flanked, so he had no choice but to raise the blue flag and inform the rebels that they had fully retreated. Gao Qi took the lead and directly intercepted Tang Wancheng, Tang Wanqian fought for a long time, his strength was insufficient, and he was no longer an opponent, Dong Zhentian caught it during the crisis and covered Tang Wancheng's withdrawal, so he was surrounded by Gao Qi, Dou Ying's father and son, and it was difficult to get out for a while. However, his marksmanship was pure, and the generals couldn't help it for a while, so he pressed the head of the gun with all his might, blocked the weapons of the three people, and slipped away with his horse.
As soon as the rebels in the north of the city saw the commander fleeing, they all turned around and fled for their lives, and Liang Jin looked at it and found that there were less than eight hundred soldiers and horses left in the north of the city. When the generals saw the arrival of reinforcements and the defeat of the rebels, they could not cheer, and in their place they were filled with great grief, because the losses in this battle were too great. What is puzzling is that it seems that in this battle, the enemy's forces are stronger than before, Liang Jin patted his head and didn't understand why, this question has also bothered him for many years.
So outside the city, the armies of Youzhou and Bingzhou chased the north, and the rebels retreated for a hundred miles, scattered and disappeared in the area of Heifeng Mountain, and it seemed that they were not capable of attacking the city in the short term. Liang Jin ran to the four gates to see the situation, and I was pulled by Emperor Cheng to Mingyue Tower. He pulled me to change my clothes, then pressed me to a chair, sat opposite him, looked straight at me and said, "I didn't expect my destiny to be on you!" I was sweating and I didn't know what to do.
