Chapter 221: Breaking the Enemy in the Rain
The wind is stronger, blowing the banner of Chen Fuliang's Qinwang Commander hunting, the flag is straight, the dark clouds cover half of the sky, the sky in the north is still blue, but the sky in the south is dark clouds like ink, the scene is spectacular and abnormal. Seeing this spectacular celestial phenomenon, the soldiers of the Sui army, who had been pressed by the Turkic bows and arrows before, couldn't raise their heads with joy, and all said that God blessed the Great Sui, and the Great Sui Emperor Yang Guanghong blessed Qitian, and suddenly a torrential rain at this critical moment.
Still seeing this spectacular celestial phenomenon, the Turkic soldiers led by Ashina's association rate were bitter, and they scolded the sky for having no eyes, and the gods and wolves were not blessed, and there was a sudden rainstorm at this critical moment, and many Turkic soldiers couldn't wait to untie the bowstring and hide it in their hats, so as not to soak the bowstring made of animal tendons from being soaked and soaked by the rain, losing tension and even scrapped on the spot. But when things came to this point, the Turkic generals such as Ashina and Dubi had no choice but to shout and order, "Don't hurry to untie the string, don't rush to untie the bowstring, it may not necessarily rain, if you don't see rain, don't untie the string!" ”
At the same time, the Sui army's banner array was already lively into a pot of boiling porridge, except for Li Yuan, who had just withdrawn from the front line, standing sulking, all the generals of the Qinwang army had already knelt in front of Chen Yingliang, and rushed to ask for orders to go to the battle, and go to Bai to pick up the first merit of breaking through the Turkic camp - none of the Sui army generals are fools, they all know how weak and bullying the Turkic army is after losing their bows and arrows, and they all know how rare this opportunity to take credit for Bai is to choose the merits.
The pie that suddenly fell from the sky was too big, even Wang Shiyun and Wang Renze, father and son, who had just arrived at the battlefield with their army, regardless of the exhaustion of their own army, pleaded to fight in front of Chen Yingliang, Wang Shiyun also shouted directly and shamelessly: "Virtuous nephew, don't say anything else, let me go with your cousin!" Kiss or not, break the bones and tendons, His Majesty the Emperor will make you the commander of the Qinwang Alliance, our relatives don't charge for you, who will charge for you? ”
"When did Wang Shichong's family become Chen Yingliang's relatives?" After seeing that Chen Yingliang did not deny this relative, the generals of the Qinwang coalition army were also worried, for fear that Chen Yingliang would really give this big bargain to his relatives.
Fortunately, Chen Yingliang was not very interested in the relatives of the old Wang family, and he was embarrassed to be too partial to his relatives, so he didn't take Wang Shiyun's stubble, but just shouted: "Yun Dingxing listens to orders!" ”
"The last general!" Yun Dingxing Yun Lao General was overjoyed.
"I order you to bring all your troops and horses to the enemy camp!" Chen Yingliang shouted loudly: "Give you a meal time, and within a meal time, be sure to break through the Turkic fence defense line for Ben Shuai and enter the Turkic camp!" Fighters are rare, fleeting, and there can be no mistakes! ”
About half an hour to break through the Turkic fence defense line, the time is actually very abundant, and Yun Dingxing, who has learned some marching and fighting, is of course overjoyed when he hears it, hugging his fists and singing promises, and immediately rushing down to arrange the arrangement after thanking him, Liu Jingye and other generals under Yun Dingxing are also happily following up, and they followed the old general Yun, who is good at adjusting the position of the buttocks, to pick up the head in vain. And the other Qinwang generals all beat their chests, especially Liu Changgong, who was wearing a pair of pants with Chen Yingliang, and even screamed directly, "Dashuai, you are too uninteresting, why don't you cheap me for such a good thing?" ”
"What is General Liu anxious about?" Chen Yingliang smiled, and suddenly shouted: "Liu Changgong listened to the order, ordered you to immediately reorganize your army for battle, and after Yun Dingxing's team entered the Turkic camp, you immediately raised your troops and horses to attack, killed the Turkic camp, and smashed the Turkic Chinese army, kill me when I see the enemy, and rob the horse when I see it, and there must be no mercy for my subordinates!" ”
"No!" Liu Changgong agreed loudly, and then he happily rushed down to organize the team to prepare for the war, and the generals of the Right Military Guard, who had a deep relationship with Chen Yingliang, were also happy, and they thanked Chen Yingliang one after another, and followed Liu Changgong to rush back to the army to prepare for battle.
The first credit for breaking the Turkic camp was given to Yun Dingxing, and the credit for cutting off people's heads to grab the loot was given to Liu Changgong, Wang Shiyun and Wang Ren were also anxious, and when they rushed to ask Chen Yingliang for an order to fight, Chen Yingliang smiled and said: "Fourth uncle, eighth cousin, don't worry, I don't arrange a frontal attack for you, because I have more important errands to hand over to you, and if this errand is executed well, the credit will be greater." ”
Wang Shiyun's father and son turned their anger into joy, and hurriedly inquired about what an important errand was, Chen Yingliang pointed to the dark clouds in the sky and said: "Two Wang generals, you see, it is about to rain heavily, the torrential rain, the Turkic bows and arrows are scrapped, our army is well prepared, and it is easy to break the enemy head-on, but if we want to expand the results of the battle and win a greater victory, we must have an army to detour behind the Turkic camp, block the Turkic retreat on the road, and attack the Turks in front and back - almost all the soldiers under your command are Huainan people, and there is a lot of rain and water in the Huainan area, Marching and fighting in the pouring rain, which team do we have here that can match you? Do you understand? ”
After listening to Chen Yingliang's explanation, Wang Shiyun and Wang Renze, father and son, suddenly realized, and their faces showed ecstasy - although it was necessary to fight a tough battle to intercept the defeated Turkic army, the capture was definitely not small, and the capture was bound to be a lot. After being overjoyed and secretly admiring Chen Yingliang's thoughtfulness, Wang Shiyun hurriedly said: "...... Xian, Dashuai, our army is a little tired, and the vanguard is only 4,000 troops, and I am afraid that some of the strength of the defeated Turkic army is insufficient, and I ask you to send another army to assist our army." ”
Glancing back at the army brought by Wang Shiyun's father and son, and seeing that the Huainan army that had just arrived behind the self-army was indeed not large, Chen Yingliang frowned slightly, turned his gaze to Li Yuan a little helplessly, and instructed Li Yuan, who was sulking with a straight face: "Ambassador Li, take your team, accompany Jiang Duqin Wang's army to outflank and detour, and intercept it at the narrow road behind the Turkic camp. The commander will distribute the rewards according to the laws and regulations of the army. ”
I really wanted to refuse Chen Yingliang's order in anger, but I didn't have the guts, and at the same time, I really didn't want to let the army under his command gain nothing in this battle, Li Yuan had to clench his fists and sing a promise, and Chen Yingliang added uneasily: "Remember two points, first, the Taiyuan team is in front, forcing the Turks to fight in close quarters, and then let the army of King Jiangduqin, who is good at rain warfare, enter the battlefield." Second, our army stormed the Turkic camp in Laoxian County, and the possibility of the Yanmen Turks sending reinforcements could not be ruled out, so we had to guard against the enemy from behind, and set up more tripping ropes before and after, so that the Turks could not give full play to the advantage of the charge, and it would be easy for our army to win! ”
"Thank you for your advice, the general will remember." Li Yuan was extremely depressed and agreed, and scolded even more depressed in his heart, "Lao Tzu eats more salt than you eat rice, and you still need to teach this?" ”
The soldiers and horses of the King of Zhulu Qin were all sent out, and of course the Peng Sui Army was arranged by Chen Yingliang to be used as a reserve, and it was also at this time that Li Jing stepped forward and smiled at Chen Yingliang: "I really didn't expect that such a good opportunity for meritorious service, Chen Dashuai was willing to give all to the friendly army, it seems that His Majesty the Emperor is really like a torch, and the holy candle shines, only by virtue of the selflessness of the Grand Duke, the position of the commander of the Qinwang coalition army is none other than Chen Dashuai." ”
The Yin Shishi on the other side also nodded again and again, praising Chen Yingliang for being fair and honest, not avoiding revenge externally, not avoiding relatives internally, and indeed having the demeanor and temperament of the commander of the whole army, Chen Yingliang smiled and said: "The two adults have won the award, in fact, I also have selfish intentions, I don't let the descendants go into battle today, because I can't look down on the merits of Laoxian, and when it comes to the decisive battle in Yanmen, I will let the descendants go out to fight to grab the great credit, don't scold me for favoritism." ”
This rainstorm came extremely fiercely and quickly, and between the jokes, the ink-like dark clouds swept up, covering the entire battlefield sky, turning the world just after noon as dark as the evening, the wind rolled the flags, and pounced on the Turkic camp due north with yellow sand, and the Sui army team that was ordered to fight had already finished lining up in front of the formation, and was only waiting for Chen Yingliang's attack order, Li Yuan's team and Jiangdu's team, which were ordered to intersperse, had also rushed to the right flank of the Turkic camp, and quickly advanced to the depths behind the Turkic camp. The Turkic team, which was still majestic before, was already a mess, and the Turkic generals such as Ashina and Dubi were at a loss, and they couldn't decide for a while whether to continue to stick to the camp and wait for the storm to pass, or decisively give up the blocking mission and abandon the camp and flee with the whole army.
There was a loud bang, a thick lightning bolt crossed the sky, reflecting the dark sky and the earth brightly, and the wind swept the rain and stars from the south, hitting the Turkic camp head-on, Chen Yingliang also shouted: "Beat the drums, attack!" Bring a few umbrellas and hold them up for me, the king of diligence is a big deal, and I must not get sick at this time! ”
The war drums finally sounded, and the long-standing Zuotunwei Sui army shouted in unison, and the two generals, Zhu Cang and Liu Jingye, immediately led two thousand Sui troops to rush forward first, shouting and killing the Turkic camp, Yun Dingxing also shouted like thunder in the Zuotunwei army, desperately roaring, "Sons, go on!" Kill desperately! Kill the old man, fight for the old man! ”
The raindrops of copper coins crackled and fell, splashing circles of smoke and dust on the ground, and in a blink of an eye, it became a downpour, crackling horizontally and vertically on the battlefield of the two armies, the soldiers of the Sui army shouted and charged, and the Turkic soldiers risked the risk of the bowstring being broken, and tried their best to throw feather arrows to suppress the charging momentum of the Sui army. But it's a pity that today's loss of conscience Chen Fuliang's luck is like the stick badminton game in the Asian Games crazy plug-in, the storm is blowing from the south to the north, after the Turkic soldiers shoot the feather arrows, they first have to fight with the storm before they can fall on the head of the Sui soldiers, the strength is greatly reduced, the head is also very outrageous, the threat to the Sui soldiers is very pitiful, and naturally it is impossible to suppress the charging momentum of the Sui soldiers.
The wind direction and wind force are too favorable to the Sui army soldiers, only in the blink of an eye, the two Sui army teams have rushed to the Turkic army fence side by the left and right, the panicked Turkic soldiers hurriedly threw down their bows and arrows and spears to parry, but the Sui army general Zhu Cang, who rushed to the front, threw the spear in his hand to the ground, took advantage of the wind to jump in the air, jumped directly over the Turkic army fence like a pole vault, and fell directly behind the fence, the spear swept between, and a large number of helpless Turkic soldiers were overturned to the ground. The soldiers of the Sui army behind struggled forward, and without even using any hammers and axes, they directly knocked down the fence of a large row of Turkic troops with their bodies - this is also a blessing for Ambassador Li, although the heavy infantry under the command of Ambassador Li failed to break into the camp, but also caused a lot of damage to the fence of the Turkic army.
The soldiers of the Sui army under the command of Zhu Cang took the lead in swarming into the camp, and Liu Jingye also easily smashed the fence and defense line of the Turkic army, pouring into the camp like a tide, and joined hands to chop and slash, stab and smash the Turkic soldiers who had lost their bows and arrows, and greeted the Turkic soldiers with knives, axes, guns and spears, and slashed countless Turkic soldiers to pieces. The soldiers of the Sui army, who were killed by the leeward and rain, were directly defeated with only one charge.
The torrential rain had already fallen, and the battle situation ahead could not be seen in the rear at all, but Liu Changgong and Yun Dingxing, who were eager to make meritorious contributions, had already sent people to reconnoiter closely, and learned that the striker had successfully entered the camp with only one charge, and the sixty-year-old General Yun smiled so much that the wrinkles on his face turned into chrysanthemums, cheering God bless the Great Sui, and the old General Yun did not hesitate to order the whole army to lead the Chinese army to charge, and Miao Haichao, who was extremely trusted by Yun Dingxing, led the army to carefully protect, Li Er and Chai Shao, who were eager to make meritorious contributions, didn't care who they were helping to fight this battle, and they both led their colonels to charge with all their might, and they both took the lead and rushed to the front.
At the same time, the right guard team led by Liu Changgong also launched a charge, and the soldiers who always served as the vanguard were wearing heavy armor, and rushed directly to the main gate of the Turkic camp, followed by the right guard army of the tide of the ocean, and the four generals of the Baoguo army who rushed to the front side by side ignored the bows, arrows, guns and spears from the Turkic camp, and led the newspaper **** to smash the swordsmen and smash the axes, and smashed open the gate protected by the Turkic heavy soldiers in the blink of an eye, and also knocked the gate of the Turkic camp directly to the ground, smashing down many Turkic soldiers behind the door, Holding high the banner of loyalty to the country, he directly entered the Turkic camp and killed straight towards the Turkic Chinese army camp. The right guards in the back shouted to follow, and the flood directly overturned the arrow towers on both sides of the Turkic camp gate, and directly cut countless panicked Turkic soldiers into pieces.
The thunder in the sky one after another, although the thunder sounded, but could not cover the shouting and killing roar of the Sui army soldiers, the Sui army team that entered the camp in three ways was like a rainbow, and the Turkic soldiers who were poured by the torrential rain and greatly reduced their combat effectiveness were killed all over the ground, and the Turkic generals aggressively organized the army to intercept and defend twice, and both times were rushed by the Sui soldiers in the blink of an eye, and the charging momentum of the Sui soldiers was higher and higher, and nothing could be resisted, and the Turkic soldiers were defeated and retreated, and the signs of collapse were revealed in a blink of an eye.
The rain was heavier, the wind and rain were mixed together, connected into one, and the things that were wrapped horizontally and vertically were wrapped in it, and the Turkic soldiers who were against the wind and rain were difficult to even open their eyes, and the soldiers of the Sui army who were fighting against the wind were also more high-spirited, frantically slashing and stabbing the Turkic soldiers who were blocking in the face, overturning the Turkic army's grain and grass carts, tearing down the precious cowhide and sheepskin tents of the Turkic army, and smashing the things and objects that were blocked in front of the Turkic soldiers, the Turkic soldiers could not resist, and could only rush backwards. Give the soldiers of the Sui army a free vanguard, and rush across to disrupt more Turkic camps and Turkic teams.
The defense line of the Chinese army's camp, which was pinned on by Ashina's high hopes, only played a slight and almost negligible blocking role, or only intercepted its own soldiers who retreated from the front, and with the rapid advance of the Sui army's ranks, it was slaughtered by the Turkic defeated soldiers like a duck, and the fence and connected vehicles protecting the Chinese camp were also quickly overturned and trampled by the Turkic defeated soldiers, and they could no longer play any blocking role, and the Turkic soldiers guarding the Chinese camp also joined the ranks of fleeing.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Ashina's association rate was also completely dead, and he continued to defend the camp and wait for the rainstorm to pass, so he decisively ordered to abandon the camp and flee, and also rode a war horse to take the lead in escaping, and the Turkic generals such as Dubi also led the army to flee north, and hurriedly fled for their lives and rushed down the tent fence of the rear camp of the army, and also washed down the gate of the rear camp, leaving behind the grain, grass and property, cloth, cattle and sheep that were finally looted everywhere, and many young women who were forcibly plundered and humiliated from the people, and also left countless ownerless horses for the Sui soldiers to plunder and ride. In short, he left behind what he could leave behind, and fled north with only horses and weapons.
Although there were personal soldiers with umbrellas to cover the rain, but in such a big wind and rain, Chen Yingliang's whole body was quickly wet by the torrential rain, Chen Yingliang didn't care about it, leaned on the handsome chair and just patiently listened to the battle reports one after another, and never showed his face, as a result, when the Qian Peng scouts found that the Sui army team had entered the Turkic Chinese army camp to report, Kan Liang and Cheng Yanjin and other Qian Peng fierce generals next to him couldn't help it, and asked Chen Yingliang to attack one after another, and also went to join the battle to get some credit.
"What's the hurry? If you want to go into battle and kill the enemy, there is a chance. Chen Yingliang finally spoke, and said with a very calm expression: "Mr. Keshi has already calculated, this rain can only fall until about three o'clock at most and will gradually stop, and then we will have to fight the final battle, now put your reserves into the battlefield, how to prevent the Turkic counterattack in a while?" Don't forget, there are only 50,000 Turkic divisions here in Laoxian, and there are still 200,000 Turkic troops waiting for us in Yanmen, you are the most trustworthy team of my Qinwang commander, and now you will use up your body, what else can I use to resist the Turkic counterattack and reinforcements? ”
Explaining the reason for not letting the Peng Sui army attack, and letting his most trusted team continue to retain sufficient body, Chen Yingliang called the Yin Shishi to the front again, and said with a smile: "Yin Taishou, I will arrange some Zuotun Guard's troops to clean up the battlefield in a while, and you, the military judge, will also take the military law team to leave them to help, and also help me keep an eye on it, you know the temper of General Yun, be careful that his subordinates also learn from him like this." ”
"Don't worry, the marshal has subordinates, and the custody will not give them the opportunity to embezzle and hide the loot." The Yin World Master grinned and took over the mission from Chen Yingliang with great confidence, and then the Yin World Master hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Dashuai, there is a sentence that the lower official may not say, but for the sake of the great handsome, the lower official still has to remind you - after lifting the siege of Laoxian County and rescuing His Royal Highness the King of Qi, Dashuai, you had better contact less with His Royal Highness the King of Qi, and even more so don't contact His Royal Highness the King of Qi in private, the lower official is for your own good." ”
"Yin Taishou rest assured, I understand your kindness, and you are not the first person to say this to me." Chen Yingliang said in a stern tone: "Two years ago, when I was in Hongnong, Wei Liu's grandfather warned me and told me to have less contact with His Royal Highness King Cai - it turned out later that Wei Liushou really loved me, a grandson with a foreign surname, so he said such things to me. ”
The Yin World Master breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly nodded, saying Dashuai, you just understand it in your heart. At this time, Li Jing, who had been beside him without speaking, suddenly spoke, and said very casually: "Dashuai, Yin Taishou is also the envoy of the Fenyang Palace Eunuch, and he should be responsible for negotiating and contacting His Royal Highness King Qi, right?" ”
Chen Yingliang and Yin Shishi both glanced at Li Jing in surprise, but Li Jing remained silent, and said casually: "Yin Taishou, His Royal Highness the King of Qi was trapped after leading the army to break through the siege, and there must be a lack of manpower around him to serve - in the Turkic camp, there must be many young girls who have been forcibly captured from the people, and you will clean up the battlefield for a while, why not choose a few women with meticulous hands and feet to come out and arrange to serve His Royal Highness the King of Qi?" ”
Yin Shishi's eyes moved, and then he said, "Li Juncheng, can you take the liberty of asking, who are you?" ”
"I am a person from the imperial court, a person from the Great Sui court." Li Jing replied very simply. Wan Bishi, there are still 200,000 Turkic troops waiting for us in Yanmen, you are the most trustworthy team of my Qinwang commander, and now you have exhausted your body, what else can I use to resist the Turkic counterattack and reinforcements? ”
Explaining the reason for not letting the Peng Sui army attack, and letting his most trusted team continue to retain sufficient body, Chen Yingliang called the Yin Shishi to the front again, and said with a smile: "Yin Taishou, I will arrange some Zuotun Guard's troops to clean up the battlefield in a while, and you, the military judge, will also take the military law team to leave them to help, and also help me keep an eye on it, you know the temper of General Yun, be careful that his subordinates also learn from him like this." ”
