Chapter 124: The Two Males Fight

After Hou Jing made a secret contract with Yuwentai, he was afraid that Xiao Yan would be unhappy if he found out, so he sent someone to Zhu Yi and said: "The matter is urgent, I am afraid that the general trend of Wang Shi has not arrived, so I have no choice but to beg for help from Western Wei first." Hou Jing also planned to hand over the messenger sent by Yuwentai to Xiao Yan (this kind of villain who repeatedly does not believe in the two ends of the rat's head). Gao Huan planned to solve Wang Ba's siege of Shangluo after learning about him, so he led his army to turn around and go west to Luozhou.

Hou Jing learned that Gao Huan's army went west to Le, and at this time, Yuwentai's army of 100,000 came out of Tongguan and marched all the way east towards Luoyang, seeing that a war between the two sides was about to break out. At this time, Yuwentai once again sent envoys to urge Hou Jing to lead his troops to Luoyang to converge, Hou Jing was treacherous and cunning, where was he willing to easily show his hole cards, plus Xiao Yan had already begun to send troops to deploy defenses on the south bank of the Huai River, and he could cross the Huai River at any time to invade. At this time, Hou Jing felt that it was most appropriate for him to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight to reap the benefits of the fishermen, so he immediately detained Yuwentai's envoy in his camp.

Wang Ba's army is nothing more than Yuwentai's bait. But Gao Huan is not a fool, after learning that Yuwentai's army was out of Tongguan, he immediately made strategic adjustments, Gao Yue Li Erhu set off from Shandong, and Murong Shaozong and He Basheng pointed at Luoyang. His own 300,000 troops went straight to Pusaka, intending to cut off the back road of Yuwentai's retreat, this trick is not clever but very effective, Yuwentai is already deep in the enemy's territory, if he is covered by Gao Huan, he will really lose his ground and cannot return to Guanzhong, and the supply of grain and grass will definitely be affected.

Therefore, he also led the army to retreat from Hengnong to Tongguan, intending to take a step ahead of Gao Huan and occupy favorable terrain to wait for work to attack him. Gao Huan's vanguard army is the well-known Gao Aocao troops. Although it has gone through a long journey, the 10,000-strong army under his leadership is still very effective and imposing.

"Report to the General. The scout team in front has already engaged the thief army and is fighting in the area east of the river. The subordinates came to ask if they needed to catch up and support the scouts. A member of the colonel knelt in front of Gao Ao's horse and asked him for permission to fight. What the words will bring out what kind of troops. Gao Aocao is well-known in the Gao Huan Group for daring to fight and kill. Known for its bravery in battle. Even the scouts under his command dared to face the regular army of others. His generals are usually trained by him, and when they encounter the enemy, they rush forward like wolves, as if they don't want to die.

Gao Aocao sat on the horse and said to the generals with a very relaxed expression: "Let go of your hooves and go to my generals to hunt down and kill them, be sure to completely annihilate the Western Wei army, let the scouts continue to explore the specific location of Yuwentai, I will personally cut off the dog's head and present it to the king." After that, he was still happy, the expression on his face was very hideous, and the general bowed his hand and retreated.

Although a unit like Gao Aocao must have overcome obstacles as a vanguard army, Gao Huan also instructed him before leaving: "Don't be careless in case of trouble, and withdraw if there is danger." Save your strength and wait for the support of our army. But Gao Aocao's dictionary does not admit defeat to these two, wherever he goes, God blocks and kills God and Buddha blocks and kills Buddha, and there is a brute energy that gives up who I am. If you ask him to stop when he gets in the way, that's insulting to him. So this kid didn't take Gao Huan's words to heart at all.

However, Gao Aocao does have a set of wars, the Gao family army dares to kill and rush, and dares to sit on the ground to divide gold and silver, they are so bold and domineering, and they are not proud. Gao Huan felt that a powerful general leading the troops was the same as a talented civilian official. must be a little informal, as long as it does not hinder his own major policies, Gao Huan will not restrain him. Therefore, Gao Aocao's troops are also called the shaved head army, and they all calculate their combat exploits according to the severed heads, and the higher the rank of the head, the more valuable they are.

This Gao Aocao's shaved army is all poor children of the Six Towns. In peacetime, he has no other income, and he can't do business, and his only source of livelihood is to fight and kill people. So when you go to the battlefield, you go and see it, and the shaved army is like crazy, and their eyes are wide open. Their eyes were red as if they were going to eat people, and even their men rushed up with rolling pins. How horrible is this picture?!

Gao Aocao was very satisfied with the bravery of his troops, and the ultimate goal of fighting was to kill the enemy, otherwise everyone would just sit down and talk. Therefore, the shaving army sometimes disturbs the people, for example, when they were stationed in Yanzhou before, they often had friction and contradictions with the local residents, either the cattle and sheep in the people's homes were inexplicably lost, or the landlord's old wealth was looted by masked robbers at night, but it was still looted three times in one night, how could there be so many robbers, it was nothing more than that his Gao Aocao's troops did not fight and had no money to spend, and came out to "rob the rich but not help the poor". (Quite the style of Gao Huan)

Local officials and officials in the court gave Gao Huan several times to participate in Gao Aocao, but each time Gao Huan not only did not punish him, but also sent Xu Mingzhi to Yanzhou with gold, silver, grain, cattle, sheep and horses to sacrifice the army. After Gao Aocao learned of the actual situation (Xu Mingzhi deliberately told him), he was even more desperate for Gao Huan, and also restrained his subordinates to do less things that disturbed the people.

Later, Gao Aocao in Shandong conquered Gao Huan early, and gave Gao Huan three folds early, and strongly asked to ask for war, not only himself, but also his shaved army were eager to try, after all, they all had old mothers and wives and children in their families, and they needed a lot of money and food to support. However, due to strategic considerations, Gao Huan did not mobilize this crazy army at that time, because he was afraid that Gao Aocao would do something similar to what Hou Jing did later: slaughter the city. This is simply a smear on Gao Huan's face, and such a thing must not happen.

The Battle of Xiaoguan Gao Aocao was also with the army, but after a few days of playing in Pusaka, the whole army retreated because of the unfavorable battle in Tongguan, which made him sigh again, do you say that it is so difficult to fight a serious battle? Is it so difficult to cut off the heads of a few enemy generals? Opportunity will always favor those who are prepared, this time God gave him the opportunity to prove himself again, as the vanguard army and Yuwentai's Guanzhong army exchanged fire, before the expedition Gao Ao Cao declared to his subordinates: this time no matter what, we will hunt down the main force of Yuwentai all the way, and strive to take down his head to ask the king of Qi for reward.

So at this moment, Gao Aocao's troops were like tigers descending the mountain, chasing Yuwentai's ass and biting it, and Yuwentai ordered his general Li Bi to block the unstoppable shaved army. The prestige of Gao Ao Cao and his shaved head army has long been rumored in the Western Wei army, but no one has really seen it. Even Li Bi himself thinks that this may be a beautiful legend, carrying a head on both shoulders. If you are really ruthless, who is afraid of whom, so you don't take Gao Aocao too seriously.

Li Bi has a younger brother named Li Biao. This person is a famous strange person in Guanzhong, five short stature and his appearance is not good, but he is very proficient in swords, horses, and archery, not only that, this person is also brave in battle, he has participated in many battles in Longxi, and has won a lot, and all countries in the Western Regions know that this little man named Biaozi is very powerful. Li Bi also attaches great importance to his younger brother, and arranges for him to serve as the commander of another battalion, which is equivalent to the deputy head of the army.

Li Biao heard that he was going to fight Gao Aocao's troops. At that time, there was a feeling of sympathy for heroes, and there was a great determination to divide the victory. So both sides sharpened their knives and prepared to harvest the heads. A brutal and bloody battle is about to begin.

When Gao Aocao's shaved army arrived at Ruicheng in Hedong, Yuwentai's vanguard had already crossed Tongguan and returned to Guannei, and he was anxious to learn the news, seeing that Yuwentai was about to escape, so he stepped up to urge the sergeants to rush forward, and be sure to reach Tongguan City before Yuwentai to intercept him.

However, when the army marched to the bank of the Yellow River, a Western Wei army suddenly appeared behind it, and the banner said that Longxi was the governor of Dingnan. Gao Aocao couldn't figure out who it was. I don't want to care about them, at this moment, in his eyes, only Yuwentai can attract his attention, and his goal is to kill Yuwentai! However, this Longxi army fought with the troops behind the palace of the shaved army, and the two sides were inseparable.

Gao Aocao held an emergency sergeant meeting under a large tree. He said briefly and effectively: "Who knows the situation of the Western Wei army behind our ass? And Yuwentai's main force has passed the Tong Pass now? Do we need to get the boats to cross the river? "10,000 people want to cross the river, boats must be indispensable, and the junior general of the armaments and materials said in embarrassment: "Return to the general." It is estimated that it will be difficult to get together the ships in this section, but according to the ships we have at the moment. It only takes a few more trips back and forth, and it is also possible to transport all the troops to the south bank of the river. ”

Gao Aocao thought for a while and said, "No." The enemy was outnumbered, and I was afraid that our troops would be surrounded and annihilated while they were still crossing the river. It is necessary to gather enough ships and try to pass them all at once, but if it is not possible, we must transport six or seven thousand people first, otherwise there will be danger. Although he is brave does not mean that he has no wisdom, he has followed his brother Gao Qian to fight in the east and west over the years, and has learned a lot of intrigues and tricks.

The scout captain answered: "Half of Yuwentai's army has already passed Tongguan and is retreating to the pass, if we don't speed up to catch up, I'm afraid that he will really escape." Gao Aocao nodded as if thoughtfully, so he asked again: "Who knows which Western Wei army is behind our buttocks?" "No one is on the wrong side, and no one knows who this difficult force is? It had been dragging them for nearly an hour, and it was as difficult as a dog's skin plaster.

Gao Aocao then ordered: "General Zhao and General Wei, you lead your team to take charge of the palace, and the others continue to find boats to cross the river to pursue Yuwentai. Don't blame God for not giving you a chance in the future. Everyone rushed forward and shouted, "The last general will obey the order." ”

The hillside was littered with dead bodies, all kinds of deaths, disemboweled, beheaded, smashed, with spears in their chests and died, in short, in a miserable state. Li Biao was covered in blood and counted the surviving soldiers, this battle he deeply understood the power of the shaved army, this group of people was too terrible, completely regardless of life and death, the most important thing was that they had to go into battle after a rapid march of hundreds of miles, and the combat effectiveness seemed to be undiminished, and their troops were almost scattered and defeated by these two small forces. If he hadn't taken the lead in killing a leading enemy general and slowing down the strength of their impact, it would have been very likely that he would have to explain himself here today.

Li Biao couldn't help but feel a little scared when he thought of this, this was the first time he had a sense of fear of death, he used to bring fear to others, but this time he and Professor Shaved Army felt that it was obviously different from the previous enemy, these people could probably use their teeth to bite and fight if they didn't have weapons, it was simply terrifying.

In order to prevent Li Bi's 15,000 men and horses from following and sneaking up, General Zhao and General Wei launched death attacks on them again and again, each time inflicting a devastating blow to Li Bi's troops. At this time, it is estimated that no one in Li Bi's army is not afraid of this shaved army.

"You can't admit it because of the other party's suicidal play, if we retreat back to the gate like this, how will we face the king and the others? What other face does he have to call himself an invincible iron army? Li Biao excitedly shouted at Li Bi's generals who advocated retreat. (To be continued.) )
