Chapter 390: Inheriting the Vocation

The battle continued, the Xuzhou army with a surprise advantage, the Youzhou army brought by Jiang Qi was cut into three sections, the front team of Karasuma Tucai and Xian Yuyin team, was cut off from the middle and rear team by the Xuzhou army Xu Chu Department, Wei Yan team cut off the connection between Jiang Qi's Chinese army and the rear army tail Dun department, with the whole blow to firmly occupy the upper hand of the entire battlefield, the Youzhou army that could not take care of each other was forced to fight separately, but the conflict to find a way out, there was no hope of turning the tables.

The Xuzhou army can not give the Youzhou army a chance to turn the tables, the battle from the very beginning, the well-prepared Xuzhou army has been violently impacting the ranks of the Youzhou army, the Youzhou army team scattered and scattered, constantly swinging knives and stabbing the enemy, the military flag points to the place, all of them are a rain of guns and arrows, corpses and mountains of fire, the Youzhou army is stubbornly resisting while looking for a way to break through, the chaos and the Xuzhou army are completely mixed together, the battlefield is full of swords and swords, everywhere is the voice of people boiling, the shouting of killing is deafening, chaotic like a pot of boiled rice porridge.

The axe cut off the skull, and blood and brains spilled more than half a foot away; The shield smashed through the door, making a crisp sound of the nasal bone breaking, and the white eyeballs flew out of the eye sockets, bringing out bloody arrows; The spear pierced the lower abdomen, dragging out the steaming intestines and bloody internal organs, the chaotic Youzhou army resisted desperately, the battle was unusually cruel and bloody, and the Youzhou soldiers who fought with the foreign races in the north all the year round showed the courage and fighting spirit that the soldiers of the Xuzhou army were admired, and fought very tenaciously in an extremely unfavorable situation, and also made the top and bottom of the Xuzhou army happy that Deputy Director Tao's treacherous plan could succeed smoothly, so that the army occupied all the opportunities, otherwise. When it comes to the decisive battlefield of a fair duel, even if the experienced Xuzhou soldiers are not afraid to fight such an enemy, they will inevitably pay a heavy price for victory.

Deputy Director Tao himself is also glad that his strategy is appropriate, half a month ago when he saw the frustrated Hu who refused to surrender sincerely, he had already given birth to the idea of using the frustrated Hu to lure the enemy into the urn, because in the experience of Deputy Director Tao, like Youzhou Bing, such a defeated but not cowardly, chaotic but not defeated opponent, Deputy Director Tao really has not encountered a few before, and at the same time, Deputy Director Tao also has a good impression of his father-in-law, Yuan Sangong, and the Guandu Battle lost so badly. The Great Yuan Sangong also left this elite army on the border to suppress the aliens, and did not transfer south to participate in the civil war. From Yuan Shaojun's point of view, he is absolutely stupid, but from the perspective of the nation, Deputy Director Tao is full of respect for his father-in-law - he also asked himself if he exchanged situations with his father-in-law. Can I be like my father-in-law, first outside and then inside. It is better to have a civil war than to prevail. Do you want to fight against external enemies?

In fact, Deputy Director Tao should be even more envious of Boss Cao's luck, in history, when Boss Cao was about to invade Youzhou. Deputy Director Tao is currently encountering this main force in Youzhou, and suddenly under the leadership of Yuan Xi's generals Jiao Touch and Zhang Nan, he rebelled, betrayed the Yuan family and surrendered to Boss Cao, so that Boss Cao almost won Youzhou without a fight, and also picked up a hundred elite soldiers who fought with nomadic aliens all year round.

There is no way, no luck can only rely on strength to speak, fortunately his decision is correct, Deputy Director Tao cheered up and continued to command the battle, ordering all armies to attack with all their strength, and be sure to use this battle to break Jiang Qi's main reinforcement force, so that the army can free up their hands to clean up the unfilial son of the old man, Yuan Tan Gongzi. At the same time, after learning that the main force was ambushed, Wang Men, the general of Youzhou who stayed in the camp of the Youzhou army, had hurriedly led an army of 10,000 to rescue Jiang Qi, and exchanged hands with the team of the Xuzhou general Chang Xian, who was responsible for blocking Jiang Qi's return, and the battle was also very fierce, and the surrounded Jiang Qi team also saw the dawn of a breakthrough.

When the news was sent to Deputy Director Tao, Deputy Director Tao was not very worried, because when arranging the pocket array, Deputy Director Tao had already told Chang Xuan, who was in charge of the task at the bottom of the bag, that Jiang Qi would inevitably have a rear army to respond, and that the Chang Xuan team would inevitably suffer from the dilemma of being attacked from both sides, so Deputy Director Tao asked Chang Xuan to fight to the death at this moment and wait for a new battlefield turnaround. At the same time, Deputy Director Tao asked Zhao Yun to lead an army of 10,000 to ambush in the northeast of the battlefield, and found that the Youzhou army left behind in the camp sent troops to meet Jiang Qi, so he immediately went north to attack the Youzhou camp, and seized the opportunity to kick the Youzhou camp that was not stable, so that the Youzhou army had no place to stand on the battlefield in Handan!

In addition, the decision-makers of Xuzhou, who are extremely opportunistic, have no choice but to use their crooked brains again, and arrange for hundreds of Yuan troops to surrender to put on Yuan Tanjun's military uniforms again, pretending to be pursued by Zhao Yun's team, and flee to the Youzhou camp first, and deceitfully open the camp door to do things in the middle, and respond to Zhao Yun's team to enter the camp to kill people and set fires, so as to reduce the pressure of the camp and the casualties of the camp.

Relying on Deputy Director Tao's instructions in advance, the mentally prepared Chang Xuan army really did a desperate battle, and was not chaotic at all in the case of being attacked by the two departments of Youzhou Army, Wei Dun and Wang Men, and they attacked separately and called for Lian Tian, saying that they would not open the way of Jiang Qi's team to both sides, although Wang Men and Wei Dun also achieved a desperate impact, but they could not achieve the goal of quickly breaking up the Chang Feng team to open the road.

At the same time, Zhao Yun's team also began to move north rapidly, so that hundreds of troops stepped forward to open the way, and made more than a thousand troops pretend to chase and kill, the brigade followed behind, all the way to the Youzhou camp, and at this moment although the Youzhou camp has been closely monitored, but seeing that their own defeated soldiers were chased by the enemy to the front of the camp, they still did not hesitate to open the camp door and let the defeated soldiers enter the camp, but these Yuan army captives were ungrateful, as soon as they entered the door, they immediately hacked the soldiers to open the walled gate, and the Xuzhou army behind took the opportunity to kill the camp, and Yan Rou, who stayed in the camp, knew the planWhen he hurriedly led the army to fight hard, the brigade led by Zhao Yun also killed in front of the village, the cavalry rushed straight into the camp from the wide open gate of the wall, and the infantry smashed open the fence without a trench and killed the camp, and immediately sacrificed the sharp weapon of the Xuzhou army to set fire to the enemy, the flying musket, and killed people while setting fire, and smashed into the camp of the Youzhou army.

Most of the main soldiers of the Youzhou army have been taken by Jiang Qi to rob the camp, and then Wang Men took some of them, and now there are actually not many soldiers in the Youzhou military camp, and most of the so-called 10,000 defenders are second-line auxiliaries, so although Yan Rou's team also resisted stubbornly, it still couldn't stop the fierce attack of Zhao Yun's team, and the hastily organized defense line of the camp was quickly smashed by Zhao Yun's team, and the fire caused by the flying musket led to chaos in the Youzhou camp. The second-line soldiers of the Youzhou Army who served as auxiliary tasks rushed to flee for their lives, stepped on the camp fire and tore down the camp tent, people trampled on everyone and pressed people, lost grain and grass and baggage, Yan Rou saw that the situation was critical and did not dare to slack off, and quickly led the team to flee to the north, leaving the camp and letting Zhao Yun's team trample on it.

As a result, Jiang Qi's main force, which was already in a bad situation, suddenly saw a fire in the direction of the northern camp. Half of the sky is reflected in red. Jiang Qi's team, which could have been defeated but not defeated, suddenly panicked, and their morale was also hit hard, and the teams of Weidun and Wangmen, who were once less than two hundred steps apart, were also distracted. The Chang Xuan team, who were struggling with the fierce battle, took the opportunity to rush and fight. Fighting hard to defeat the panicked royal team. Reopened the distance between the two armies of Wei and Wang, and Wang Men hurriedly divided his troops to save the camp when he was worried, and there was no longer the strength to meet the breakthrough of the Weidun brigade.

At this time. After hard fighting, the ambush in the Xuzhou camp led by Xu Chu, Cao Xing and Song Xian and other generals has completely defeated the Xian Yuyin team of the front team of the Youzhou army, killed extremely wide, and then immediately killed the battalion to cooperate with Wei Yan and Lu Burma to flank Jiang Qi's main Chinese army, during which the Daijun general Xie Jun also led the Karasuma cavalry to rush out of the Xuzhou camp, but after these loosely disciplined Karasuma cavalry and Jiang Qi's main force converged, not only could not help Jiang Qi, but also created a lot of chaos for Jiang Qi's team, and the Karasuma cavalry that was not controlled by Jiang Qi fled for his life. It was the people who specifically picked Jiang Qi's team to attack in many places, and Jiang Qi's team fought for the escape road, trampled and trampled on many soldiers under Jiang Qi's command, and fought several rout battles for the Xuzhou army for free. Are you here to help us, or are you here to help the pottery thief?! ”

Taking advantage of this rare fighter, the Xuzhou army was like a rainbow, playing with their lives to besiege Jiang Qi's main force of the Chinese army, and frantically attacking Jiang Qi's Chinese army brigade from all directions, the result was of course that the good tiger was defeated by the wolves, no matter how elite the main force of Youzhou brought by Jiang Qi, it could not stand up to the repeated insults and violations of so many Xuzhou jackals, the brigade was gradually rushed into a squad, and the squad was gradually rushed into a straggler, and finally forced to flee in all directions without a formation, the team completely collapsed, and the Xuzhou army pursued with all its might, and slashed and killed the defeated soldiers of Youzhou. Sweeping away the living.

"Ma Zhong, send someone to give the order quickly." Seeing the collapse of Jiang Qi's main force on the high platform in the camp, Deputy Director Tao only thought about it for a while, and immediately ordered: "Send a few more heralds, tell the generals of each army as soon as possible, let the soldiers shout the slogan of surrender and not kill, and surrender the enemy as much as possible." ”

Ma Zhong sang a promise, and immediately arranged six heralds to give orders to the various armies, and Deputy Director Tao turned to Qin Yi next to him and ordered: "Qin Yi, you take a thousand auxiliary soldiers to clean up the battlefield, rescue our wounded soldiers as much as possible, and the wounded soldiers of Youzhou who are willing to surrender, do not abuse the prisoners, and tell them by the way, be honest prisoners, they have a chance to return to Youzhou after the war." Qin Yi sang his promise and left.

At the same time on the battlefield outside the camp, Wei Yan, who led the army to kill, finally caught Jiang Qi's handsome flag again in the chaotic army, and hurriedly led the army to rush up under great joy, Jiang Qi fled in a hurry, and unexpectedly bumped into a team under the command of Xuzhou veteran Fu Yang, but the leader was Ding Feng, a young general who only joined the Xuzhou army during the Yecheng war, and stopped Jiang Qi head-on, Jiang Qi was forced to fight, Wei Yan was afraid that the credit would be robbed, so he hurriedly brandished a big knife and slashed all the way over, rushed to Jiang Qi's vicinity, and cut it down head-on with a roar, Jiang Qi, who was fighting with Ding Feng, hurriedly dodged, Although he dodged Wei Yan's blade, he was hit on the shoulder by Wei Yan's knife shaft, Wei Yan swept hard, Leng is knocked Jiang Qi off the war horse, and the Danyang hooligan soldiers behind him jumped faster than rabbits, and they grabbed in front of the soldiers of Ding Feng's team, pounced on Jiang Qi's body, and took Jiang Qi down alive.

"General Wenchang, as for it?" Ding Feng asked with a wry smile: "Not long after the new general, I finally had a chance to make meritorious contributions, you have so many great achievements, are you embarrassed to rob me?" ”

"It's okay, you're still young, and there will be opportunities in the future." Wei Yan smiled and said a big truth that couldn't be more realistic, "I bet that you will definitely live longer than me in the future, so this time let me make meritorious service first." Ding Feng continued to smile bitterly, and had no choice but to lead the army to look for other credits.

Jiang Qi was captured alive, and the Youzhou army naturally had no hope of turning the tables in this battle, and the Youzhou soldiers who could not form the army fled all over the mountains, and were killed countless by the Xuzhou army on the battlefield, and also surrendered countless under the slogan of the Xuzhou army to surrender without killing, but only the team of the royal gate was barely formed, and they received Weidun and a few defeated soldiers and fled to the camp. As a result, it was attacked head-on by Zhao Yun's team, and the defeat again could only bypass the big camp and continue to flee north, Deputy Director Tao ordered to continue the pursuit, and ordered the whole army to chase and kill for fifty miles before returning to the army, and try not to give the Youzhou army a chance to make a comeback as much as possible.

When Jiang Qi was escorted back to Xuzhou for rescue, it was already dark, and seeing Jiang Qi being escorted into the tent, Deputy Director Tao, who had a heart, personally untied Jiang Qi, but Jiang Qi refused to appreciate it, and just opened his mouth to ask for death. No matter how persuaded by Deputy Director Tao, he refused to surrender. Deputy Director Tao had no choice but to change his words and say: "Since General Yihan insists on not surrendering, the gentleman will not take the will of the people, and I will not force the general." And please ask General Yihan to rest in my camp for a few days. I'll be done with a few things. immediately sent the general back to the Youzhou army. ”

"You're going to let me go back?" Jiang Qi was stunned.

"Yes." Deputy Director Tao nodded solemnly and replied: "I also know something about the situation in Youzhou. Now the three departments of Wuheng and Xianbei Nu are all about to move, although the general and Han Heng are loyal to Lord Yuezhang, but the strength in their hands is no longer enough to suppress these barbarian Hu species, for the livelihood of Youzhou, but also for the livelihood of the world, I can only release General Yihan to return to Youzhou, in addition, the soldiers of Youzhou captured by our army, I have also ordered to take care of their lives, and if any of them are willing to return to Youzhou with the general, I will also give them grain and grass travel fees, so that they can return to Youzhou with the general. ”

"You ......." Jiang Qi hesitated for a moment and asked, "Are you really joking?" ”

"Of course." Deputy Director Tao smiled and replied: "Lord Yuezhang arranged for the general to serve as the assassin of Youzhou, so that the general could resist the northern barbarians and invade the Central Plains in the south, and now Lord Yuezhang is paralyzed in bed, and the brothers Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang are not angry, they only care about fratricidal flesh and blood, and refuse to do the slightest consideration for the common people in the world. ”

"Then you're not afraid that after I return to Youzhou, I will take Youzhou soldiers and horses to embarrass you?" Jiang Qi asked again.

"Don't be afraid." Deputy Director Tao smiled confidently: "If the general still insists on not surrendering at that time, I will break the general again, but now I will never kill the general, and I must let the general return to Youzhou, and use the general's power to temporarily resist the Mobei barbarians. ”

Looking at Deputy Director Tao's hearty and confident smile, and thinking about the Yuan Tan brothers who only cared about the civil war and desperately ordered themselves to lead the army south, Jiang Qi sighed in his heart, and also knelt down on Deputy Director Tao's knees, clasped his fists and said: "Taiwei thinks of the common people, is lenient and generous, and the sin will be surrendered to the Yuan family, but if the sin will surrender to the Yuan family at this moment, once they are not satisfied after returning to Youzhou, the civil strife in Youzhou will rise, and Wuheng Xianbei will immediately take advantage of it, so please forgive the Taiwei and make a living for the world, and the sin will never surrender to the Taiwei now." ”

"But don't worry, Captain." Jiang Qi hurriedly added: "Before the Taiwei soldiers come to Youzhou, the sin general will definitely obey the order of the old lord and make every effort to guard the gate of Youzhou for the Han Dynasty, and not give Wuheng Xianbei these Hun barbarians a chance to kill my Han people, until the Taiwei soldiers enter Youzhou and take over this thousand catties of burden from the hands of the sin general!" ”

"In that case, then please general."

Deputy Director Tao solemnly returned the salute to Jiang Qi, and then helped Jiang Qi up with both hands, comforting him with kind words, and asked people to prepare a banquet, and personally set up wine for Jiang Qi to suppress the shock, and it was also at this time that Jiang Qi asked Deputy Director Tao: "Taiwei, there is one thing that I still don't understand, and I persuaded me to rob Taiwei's camp, is it from Taiwei's instructions?" ”

Deputy Director Tao hesitated for a moment, and then said: "General Yihan, don't blame Zifu, although his behavior is not filial, but it is also great filial piety, at least he did this, helped our army end the war in the north as soon as possible, and saved countless Hebei lives, besides, General Zifu has unfortunately died in the chaos, what he did, please forget it." ”

After Jiang Qi left the big tent with the banquet, Xun Chen and Chen Ying asked Deputy Director Tao: "Lord, Fu Hu is obviously not dead, and he was captured by our army, why do you want to say that he is dead?" Also, why do you want to frame the accusation that the frustration is at the behest of my army? ”

"I am going to let Jiang Qi go back in order to use it to temporarily resist Wuheng and Xianbei, but I am absolutely unwilling that when our troops are in Youzhou, he will really lead his troops to resist to the end." Deputy Director Tao replied: "Fu Zhu and Jiang Qi are close friends, if you know that Fu Hu is not dead, you will definitely ask me to release Fu Hu together, if I agree, Fu Hu was taken back to Youzhou by him, when we attack Youzhou, Jiang Qi will have one more stubborn Yuan loyal minister by his side, for the future, I can only say that Fu Hu is dead." ”

"The lord is doing this, does he still have the intention of shaking the heart of the Yuan army?" Jia Lao Poison asked: "Fu Zhu is a well-known loyal minister of the Yuan family, his son surrendered to our army, and also betrayed the reinforcements of Youzhou, the news spreads, the Yuan family will inevitably be scattered and shaken by each other, which is also a great benefit for our army." ”

"To be honest, I didn't think about that just now." Deputy Director Tao smiled bitterly and said: "I planted the frustration because I found something particularly strange, this kid seems to hate me very much, I have been so generous to stay in the camp, even if this kid is loyal and refuses to rebel, he will be somewhat grateful, but I have found it several times, this kid quietly peeked at me with hatred in his eyes, as if he wanted to skin me and cramp, I was just dissatisfied with this kid's revenge, so I simply let him die and bear the infamy." ”

"In that case, the frustration cannot be kept." Chen Ying suggested: "It should be eliminated immediately, and after his death, he should be posthumously given a knighthood and official position, and use him to shake the heart of the Yuan army." ”

"I'll take care of that." Jia Lao Poison stood up and said with a smile: "The lord said that Fu Hu hated our army, but in fact, Xu also noticed it, I will do it, maybe before Fu Hu dies, I can know the reason." ”

Deputy Director Tao nodded in agreement, and when Jia Lao's poison didn't go long, he quickly returned to Deputy Director Tao, and said with a stern face: "Lord, fortunately, you planted stolen goods for Frustrated Hu this time, if you let Frustrated Hu meet with Jiang Qi, then our Youzhou war may not be so big, guess what, Frustrated Hu mentioned before he died?" ”

Deputy Director Tao thought about it, and quickly came to his senses, and then said with a smile: "Actually, even if he makes it public, it's nothing, first, there is no evidence, and second, Lord Yuezhang has already killed my envoy at that time, why is it wrong for me to start a war against him?" ”

After laughing, Deputy Director Tao posthumously awarded Frustrated Hu the title of Marquis of Fangcheng, gave Ding Huai, and deliberately disgusted Frustrated Hu, not only scolding Frustrated Hu for dying young, but also sarcastically saying that he was not righteous and could not be righteous, so that Frustrated Hu was charged with betraying the Youzhou Army.
