Chapter 738: The Decisive Battle Before the Decisive Battle (7)

The 160,000 Liang reinforcements were defeated. On this sunny day in late autumn, the defeat was declared in the most radical way. The army of 160,000 ceased to exist in an instant. I don't know what kind of despair and desolation the Liang Emperor Xiao Mo in the city will be after learning about it.

The defeat is confused, and the defeat seems to be unreasonable.

Just when the Liang army was still dominant, Xu Xuanche, the marshal of the Southern Expedition, also mentioned that Li Mi led more than 200,000 elite Wagang troops to besiege Luoyang. He was not without vigilance, nor was he without caution. But sometimes the rout can't be stopped, like a terrible storm sweeping by, and it's helpless. If all the precautions worked, where in the world would there be so many failures?

Just before the Liang army reinforcements rushed back, when the Liang Emperor Xiao Mo stood on the city wall and looked into the distance, he also mentioned the battle of Li Mi's fiasco, and he kept telling himself that he must not be the second Li Mi. But he never thought about it, why didn't he give it a try to be Wang Shichong?

Under the city of Luoyang, Wang Shichong committed suicide with two or three thousand remnants, which caused a landslide and tsunami-like rout of the Wagang army, but I am afraid that at the beginning of the attack, Wang Shichong did not expect that victory would come so easily.

If Xiao Mo hadn't been so cautious and led his army out of the city to attack on the day of the rebellion in the camp of King Qin's army, then it would not have been Li Shimin who stood in the crowd and laughed loudly, but him.

Li Shimin was laughing loudly, laughing so rampantly and so presumptuously.

He was tossed into the air by the ecstatic soldiers and caught again, and Li Shimin enjoyed this brilliant sense of achievement.

The 160,000 Liang army was defeated, and the number of people killed was actually only more than 20,000. The most ironic thing is that when most of the Liang army fled and surrendered, the tens of thousands of heavily armored infantry soldiers in the baggage camp in the rear of the Liang army also fought a small victory, and nearly 5,000 cavalry of the Qin army were slaughtered. It's just that before it was the turn of the Liang army's heavy armor to celebrate the victory, the rout troops in front of them had already poured over like a flood.

The rout army disrupted the heavily armored phalanx, but was stopped by a thousand cavalry from the thirteenth and did not dare to flee again!

Of the 160,000 Liang troops, more than 20,000 were killed and wounded, and 30,000 or 40,000 escaped. Nearly 100,000 Liang troops surrendered on their knees in such a ridiculous way. They are also Liang troops, but they are very different from the team in Nanzhang City that fought to the last man. Qi Shuming, the general of Nanzhang, pretended to surrender, led the army to raid on the day Li Shimin entered the city, and almost killed Li Shimin, Qi Shuming died that day, and nearly 20,000 Liang troops under his command fought fiercely in every street and courtyard in Nanzhang City, until all of them were killed.

And this Liang army is well-equipped and well-trained, and there are also the 10,000 heavy armor that Xiao Mo values the most.

This southern expedition, the mountains are steep, and the cavalry in the south is not good at fighting, so Xiao Mo gave all the heavy armor of 10,000 people to Xu Xuanche. Relying on this 10,000-heavy armor, Xu Xuanche was indeed invincible in the early days of the Southern Expedition. Captured more than a dozen cities and suppressed three or four small local forces.

This was a mighty army that could be written into the history books, but it left a period of shame under Xiangyang City.

Looking at Li Shimin, who was thrown into the air, Wei Chigong, who was sitting on the ground gasping for breath, did not have a trace of happiness in his heart. He suffered thirty wounds, the largest of which ran through his left shoulder and nearly pierced the heart with a single blow. But these injuries did not knock him down, and the courage and perseverance that came out of nowhere sustained him until the last moment.

When victory came, what he experienced was that it was only a long time coming, but it broke out like a burst of embankment pain and a thick depression in his heart.

He was indeed very panicked in his heart, which made him feel the urge to look up to the sky and shout. But he didn't, because Wei Chigong at this time ...... I don't even have the strength to stand up.

The thirteenth found Yu Chigong, took off his iron helmet and threw it on the ground. He sat down next to Wei Chigong and looked at Li Shimin, the king of Qin, who was celebrating his victory not far away, with a smile of unknown meaning on the corner of his mouth.

"It's unbelievable, but we did win."

He leaned back and lay down on the bloodied ground. When his back touched the ground, Tsusan couldn't help but moan in comfort.

"It's kind of incredible."

Yu Chigong also smiled, but even he didn't know how ugly this smile was.

Lying on the ground, Si Thirteen looked at the blue sky like a wash, was silent for a while, and suddenly asked, "You say, why can we win, and why does Liang Jun lose?" ”

"Luck."

Wei Chigong shook his head, he couldn't answer the question.

"No...... right"

Si 13 turned his gaze to Wei Chi Gong, looking at the tired and haggard face, he said word by word: "The reason why we can win today's battle is because there is Wei Chi under the command of King Qin...... And there was no lieutenant Chi in the Liang army. I'm not patting you on the back, to be honest, if you're a general...... The victorious side of today's battle may not be the King of Qin. To be honest, I don't want to be an enemy with someone like you. ”

"King Qin...... It's still going to win. ”

Wei Chigong shook his head again, he just subconsciously said this, maybe it was just a subordinate who subconsciously still maintained the dignity of the lord, but his answer had no power at all. He himself couldn't help but think about it, if he followed King Qin's strategy and abandoned the first three armies as bait...... Can this battle really be won?

"I heard that the Liang army in Xiangyang City came out, and he retreated."

The thirteenth asked.

"Yes...... The Liang army blocked all the gates of Xiangyang City, and it was too late to open them when they saw the arrival of reinforcements, and the Liang army was defeated too quickly, and the men and horses in the city rushed out to fight and the fight was over, what could they do if they didn't go back? ”

Wei Chigong regained some strength, and as he spoke, he tore off a piece of clothing and bandaged his wounds. Hei Thirteen sat up, took the cloth in his hand and bandaged him: "You will become the first important minister under the command of King Qin!" ”

He said.

After a pause, Hei 13 said in a very low but clear voice in Wei Chigong's ear: "Just like an important minister like Han Shixu, the first person under King Qin. ”

Hearing this, Wei Chigong's body trembled violently. There was a flash of shock and fear in his eyes, and then confusion.

……

……

Hundreds of thousands of Liang troops were guarded separately, and more than 10,000 people gathered in each place. The soldiers of the Qin Wangjun armed with horizontal swords and crossbows and arrows patrolled back and forth in the place where the surrendered soldiers gathered, and the surrendered soldiers sitting on the ground were expressionless. They may not have reacted until now, how could they lose this battle?

Not long ago, Li Shimin, the king of Qin, took a few of his right-hand men to inspect all the places where the surrendered troops gathered. Then in the most impassioned tones, they were all innocent and would not be put to death, and would not even be deprived of the right to inherit as a military man. As long as they are willing to be loyal to themselves, they can even not participate in the battle against Xiangyang City.

This undoubtedly shook the hearts of the surrenderers.

There are their fathers and villagers in the city, and it is definitely not a bad thing for them not to attack the city.

When Xu Xuanche, the marshal of the Liang Army's Southern Expedition, led the battle team to stop the rout, he was killed by a cold arrow. An arrow pierced the throat, and it is still unknown who shot it. Changshi Guo Hua was trampled to death by the rebels, and in the flesh and mud of a place, he couldn't even distinguish his face except that there was his armor on one of the pools.

Deputy Marshal Zheng Wenxiu, and Pioneer General Sun Yingkan were captured and surrendered.

In a place where there were almost fifteen thousand captives, there was a Liang soldier in the deepest part of the crowd who was not as depressed as the other soldiers, and from time to time he sat up straight and looked into the distance, observing the location of Li Shimin, the king of Qin. There was excitement in his eyes, excitement that he couldn't suppress.

"File...... Old Wu, we really got in! ”

The young captive saw Li Shimin walking to another place surrounded by everyone, turned around and said in a very low voice to a captive next to him who seemed to be asleep with his head down: "It's really a god, so I got in." ”

Because a few of them deliberately avoided the other captives, they would not be listened to by others. The captive sitting next to him should have been a middle-aged man in his thirties, and although his face was smeared with a lot of blood, he could still see that this person's face was exceptionally white, not the sickly white, but the kind of white that was born with a small white face. When he was young, he couldn't be said to be a figure like a beautiful son.

"Fei Liu...... Can't you just shut up? ”

The white-faced old Wu is naturally Wu Bushan.

Fei Liu almost screamed out before, but finally came to his senses.

"Old Wu, how could you have guessed that the Liang army would inevitably be defeated?"

Fei Liu lowered his voice and asked with a look of adoration.

"...... Lao Tzu is not a god, how can he see at a glance who wins and who loses? You are stupid like this, and you still think that Lao Tzu will let you out and take charge of you alone in the future......"

"Old Wu...... Okay, teach me? ”

"Alas......"

Wu Bushan sighed, and then explained: "I am not Sun Wu, nor Kong Ming, I don't understand the mysteries of heaven and earth, nor do I understand the art of war...... Let me see the winner before the war starts, it's the same as if you give me two eggs and let me see which one hatches male and which one is female, it's a fucking weird thing to be able to tell! ”

"But think about it, if we want to get involved, do we need to care who wins and who loses?"

Wu Bushan smiled and said, "If the Liang army wins, Li Shimin will be killed...... We pretended to be the prisoners of the Qin Wangjun and were captured by the Liang army. If Li Shimin wins and the Liang army is defeated, we will pretend to be the prisoners of the Liang army...... No matter who wins or loses, we can get in after all. ”

"More than 200,000 people are fighting and fighting, who will notice that there are hundreds more people on the battlefield? And it infiltrated from everywhere, when the Liang army was defeated, we rushed in and ran together, who would care if the people around us knew each other at that time? The Liang army has 160,000 people, and after this battle, many generals died, who knows which battalion we are? In the same way, if Li Shimin is defeated, can the generals of the Liang army be able to see that we are fake? ”

"Stupid!"

He finally evaluated Fei Liu in two words.

Fei Liu smiled, and he was not in a bad mood when he was scolded: "It's good to be able to mix in again, don't say it...... It's really fucking uncomfortable to let our secret spies watch from the outside, so it's better to be in the middle of it. At such a glorious moment, how can we be without our secret spies? ”

"These two words are good!"

Wu Bushan glared at him.

"Now that you've mixed in, Old Wu ...... Do you think I have a second chance to shoot Li Shimin's arrow? If I had another chance like this, I would never aim at his heart again, I would aim at his neck! ”

"Perhaps...... It's not your turn. ”

Wu Bushan shook his head and looked at a person walking not far away. The man was wearing the armor of the Tang Army, without a helmet, revealing a face covered with scars, hideous and terrifying.

"I've been thinking about it, it's really a waste for such a ruthless person not to come into our military inspection office to do things. This guy ...... Born to be in the dark......"

Wu Bushan looked at the scarred face and said to himself.

"That's right!"

Fei Liu suddenly thought of something, looked at Wu Bushan and asked seriously: "Old Wu, you have no last resort...... Sneaking into the captives so easily, you must have set up your back hand, right...... Then you tell me, what if we are unlucky and the victorious side wants to kill the prisoners? ”

"You said it too......

Wu Bushan spread his hands and said with an innocent face: "That's our bad luck...... I've got a solution! ”

"Huh?"

Fei 6: ......
