Chapter 755: Black Rock Beach Fights Again
Yanshi Dongdu Army Battalion, Marshal Big Account.
Huangfu Wuyi, the marshal of the Eastern Capital Army, looked at the documents in his hand and only felt extremely tightness in his chest, and Dou Jiande of Hebei poured south. Liu Wuzhou, Liang Shidu and others in Hedong were mixing up the pool of water in Hedong. The east of the river and Hebei sandwiched by the Taihang Mountains are surging, and the situation is changing rapidly. In such a situation, especially on the eve of his imminent reorganization by Chen Kefu, he actually had the last glimmer of hope in his heart.
He is still looking forward to the Hebei Army transferring all the soldiers and horses into Hebei to participate in the war with Hedong, and let him stay in the eastern capital and continue to be the carefree eastern capital.
It's just that when he heard that the Southern Chen Army, which had also gone north with troops from the country, suddenly lost its momentum in Wanqiu City, and instead avoided Chen Kefu in the Central Plains, and ran to Jianghan instead. The old puppet Huangfu Wuyi still sighed countless times.
"Alas! The surname Chen is stable in the Central Plains! If others want to take away the Central Plains, it will be more difficult than ascending to the sky! Duan Da, the deputy marshal of the Eastern Capital Army, threw down the urgent report sent back by the scouts and commented very regretfully.
"Shaft, Shen Faxing is really a shaft. Jiang Han, who only knew how to bully the soft and fear the hard, and was greedy for emptiness, gave up all the splendid mountains and rivers of the Central Plains to Chen Kefu. The surname Chen was now facing the two roads of soldiers and horses in Hedong and Hebei, and it was the time to take care of himself. At this time, if Shen Faxing can continue to move the 300,000 army north, the situation will be very different. Huangfu Wuyi on the other side was also very disappointed. In their view, this is the last chance for the anti-Chen forces on all sides, and it is also the last chance for their Eastern Capital Army to continue to occupy the Eastern Capital. It's a pity that no one wants to cherish it, and it's all wasted.
"Dashuai, Luoyang urgent!" Outside the tent came the sound of the guards' reports.
"Let him in."
The tent was opened, and Shi Huangfu Xiren, the commander of the Eastern Capital, came in with a team of guards.
Duan Da looked at this team of guards full of murderous aura, all of them were not good. I couldn't help but raise my eyebrows, "What about the guards outside?" How do you report that so many people have come in? The long history of the emperor. What are you doing? ”
Huangfu Xiren is the younger brother of Huangfu Wuyi, but the relationship between the two brothers is not very good. If Huangfu Wuyi is a wall-to-wall grass. It's a bit too cautious at all times. Never dare to make any bold moves. Then Huangfu Xiren is a complete madman, a gambler. This person is unlearned, and he relies entirely on the power of his family and the support of Huangfu Wuyi. It's just going up step by step. What Huangfu Xiren is best at is political speculation, switching from one power to another. It was as if he had never been loyal to anyone, and he had never thought of stopping.
Huangfu Xiren, who looked like a thin person, smiled and waved his hand. The guard had already rushed forward. Huangfu Wuyi and Duan Da, the two supreme commanders of the Eastern Capital Army, who would not be able to resist in the future, were all tied up.
Huangfu Xiren immediately walked to the handsome position that originally belonged to his cousin Huangfu Wuyi, he sat down with a big stab, and slowly pulled out the horizontal knife out of his hand. The voice was dry and sour: "Now, this marshal is the marshal of the 100,000 Eastern Capital Army. From now on, the Eastern Capital Army will listen to the orders of the commander. ”
Only then did Duan Da understand that Huangfu Xiren had rebelled.
"Emperor Fu Xiren dog thief. What do you want? The Eastern Capital Army has already surrendered to King Chen, if you dare to mess around. You're not going to end well. ”
"Really?" Huangfu Xiren pursed his lips and sneered at Duan Da a few times, "It's better to take care of yourself first." Come on, on behalf of Ben Shuai, he will temporarily lend him to Deputy Marshal Duan for a first use! ”
The sword flashed, and the first to propose to let Wang Shichong enter Luoyang, and finally the first to propose that the Eastern Capital Army surrender to Chen Pojun, stayed behind, and returned to the west, leaving only an old human head unable to roll. …,
Killing Duan Da in front of Huangfu Wuyi, Huangfu Xiren walked up to his cousin and said with a smile, "Big brother, please also borrow something for me to use with my brother." ”
"Don't kill me, I listen to you for everything, all to you." When Huangfu Wuyi saw his brother's cold tone, he immediately rolled his eyes in fright, and the two trembled.
"Don't worry, I'm just going to borrow your handsome seal and command talisman, and after all the officers in the general of this commander are summoned here, I will loosen the binding on you."
Hearing that there was no need to die, Huangfu Wuyi immediately handed over all his handsome seals and warrants. Subsequently, all the generals of the Eastern Capital Army who were called up were hijacked by Huangfu Xiren, the door of the Eastern Capital Army camp was closed, and the entire camp fell into a state of no command.
Just when Li Jing, who was stationed on the front line of Luokou, was still waiting for the Eastern Capital Army to clear the Jianghuai Army, the light cavalry scouts who went out brought back a rather surprising news.
Immediately, Li Jing ordered the Jianghuai Army, which was close to each other, and the 20,000 generals of the Hebei Army and the Eastern Capital Army under his command to come to the tent to discuss matters. This was the first time since his victory in Luokou that he mobilized the public, so many people were caught off guard.
"What's going on again?" The generals who had arrived in a hurry looked at each other, and at the same time a sense of foreboding surged in their hearts. In these chaotic times, it's no wonder what happened. Moreover, at present, Li Mi's remnants and the six counties of Shannan have not yet been recovered, and they are even more expected to live a life of dissipation!
But to everyone's surprise, Li Jing gave everyone a surprise first. He announced to the generals that the scouts fifty miles away had discovered Li Mi's defeated army, which had been fleeing and hiding. The remnants of Li Mi's army, numbering about 50,000, were rushing at full speed towards the battlefield of the last Luokou victory.
What is even more surprising is that the envoy sent by Li Mi has already announced that Li Mi is not here to fight, he is here to surrender. He will lead all the 50,000 soldiers and horses under his command to surrender unconditionally to the Hebei army at Luokou.
"Li Mi has sent a messenger with a hundred carts of gold and silver to us, and there are only twenty miles left from us."
"Impossible, how could Li Mi suddenly surrender to us?" A Hebei army general was completely unconvinced.
But Li Mi has already sent a hundred carts of gold and silver, if it is not true, this hundred carts of gold and silver is estimated to be all Li Mi's current wealth. He couldn't have really come to send us money, could he? Emperor Fu Xiren, the chief of the Eastern Capital Army, said with a smile.
"King Zheng, what do you think?" Li Jing swept his gaze to Wang Xuanying.
Wang Xuanying pondered for a while: "This king thinks that no matter whether Li Mi wants to come to the real surrender or to deceive the surrender, it is actually beneficial and harmless to us. We don't bother to speculate about whether they are true or false, we just need to lay a net here, and wait for it. When Li Mi is strung into the net behind his head, we can surround him in one fell swoop. If he surrenders, we will disarm his troops. If it's a fake landing, then it's better, let's just annihilate them. ”
Huangfu Wuyi, the marshal of the Eastern Capital Army, was a little pale, and he said weakly: "We have 150,000 soldiers and horses, and Li Mi only has 50,000 remnants of the defeated generals, what else can I think about." Could it be that my 150,000-strong army, waiting for work, is no match for Li Mi's 50,000 defeated army? If that's the case, then everyone here today can only resign from His Royal Highness King Chen and ask for guilt. ”
Li Mi's Wei army had reached a distance of fifty miles, and it would take three hours at most to reach the Luokou Plain.
Faced with such a situation, Li Jing had to issue an order to Huangfu Wuyi, the marshal of the Eastern Capital Army, to suspend the liquidation of the Jianghuai Army. And in order to prevent Li Mi from surrendering, Li Jing had to follow Huangfu Wuyi's advice when he only had 20,000 soldiers and horses available around him. With the Eastern Capital Army as the main force, a pocket array was set up in Jiukou Luokou, and the Eastern Capital Army and the Jianghuai Army were laid out into a pocket besieged on three sides, while the 20,000 soldiers and horses in Hebei were used as a mobile reserve of war horses, guarding the slopes of Luokou Mountain and preparing to close and support at any time. …,
In the afternoon, the representative sent by Li Mi as a negotiator escorted a hundred carts of gold and silver to the Luokou battlefield. The light cavalry of the guerrillas in front received this batch of gold and silver, a total of 100 carts of gold and silver, which was completely accurate. There was no imaginary number, and countless gold and silver decorated a whole hundred carts.
Two more hours passed, and a black line like a tide appeared on the horizon of Luokou. The reconnaissance cavalry in front reported that about 50,000 Wei troops had arrived in front of the frontal array within ten miles, of which less than 5,000 had horses. According to the envoy who had already arrived at the Hebei military camp, the Wei army had long been out of food and had been killing horses to satisfy hunger during this time. By now, basically all the horses have been eaten, and only a few thousand or so remain.
Hearing this news, a feeling of uneasiness flashed in Li Jing's heart. Li Mi's surrender was a bit unreasonable, the Wei army appeared too quickly, and the other party completely unreservedly rushed to the pocket formation laid by the Hebei army, which was even more unbelievable.
Ten miles.
Five miles.
Three miles.
One mile
On the slope of Jiushan Mountain, Li Jing straddled his horse and quietly watched the situation on the battlefield in front of him. The Wei army was getting closer and closer, and the total number seemed to be fifty thousand, except for the somewhat surprising number of cavalry. Even Li Jing estimated that it was still a little exceeded, at least about 70,000.
When the two armies were within two hundred paces of each other, the Wei army, which should have stopped advancing at this time and surrendered, suddenly accelerated. The 70,000-strong army was like a sharp arrow, rushing straight towards the frontal Eastern Capital Army, like a tide.
Seeing this scene, Li Jing breathed a sigh of relief. At this point in the war, it is unlikely that anything else will happen. The 70,000 Wei army, this should already be all the remnants of Li Mi's army.
Li Jing pulled his sword in his hand and roared, "Surround them!" ”
On the hillside, on top of a tall enemy tower, the military order to encircle has been issued in flags. On the wide Luokou Plain, an army of up to 130,000 people is changing rapidly. It's like a huge deflated pocket that is quickly filling and bulging. And with the counter-charge of the soldiers, the whole pocket seemed to be facing the wind, and it was swaying and using the mouth of the bag to cover the Wei army rushing like a rushing wave.
