Seeing that the Tang army was ambushed, Shan Xiongxin's subordinate generals showed a look of chagrin.

At this time, Shan Xiongxin said to the left and right: "At this time, there is still any doubt, only to fight." ”

At this time, a general galloped over and said to Shan Xiong: "General Shan, General Xu has a word, he is willing to lead the people and horses behind the palace, and implore General Shan to retreat immediately!" ”

Shan Xiongxin was slightly stunned when he heard this, Xu Shiji's men and horses had already retreated at this time, but he actually took the initiative to replace his palace.

Shan Xiongxin was ashamed when he heard this, but he also knew that this was not the time to act rashly, otherwise he would have delayed tens of thousands of lives. Shan Xiongxin immediately hugged his fist at the general and said: "There is General Lao Xu, give the order to go down and the army retreat!" ”

When the order Xiongxin led the army to begin to retreat. Li Xiaogong personally led the Tang army to bravely begin the pursuit, and the besieged Tang army also regained its vigor and entered the counterattack.

Shan Xiongxin sent 3,000 cavalry from Qi Ashu to cooperate with Luo Shixin's 3,000 cavalry from Xu Shiji's department to harass the Tang army.

The cavalry of the Tang army caught up and killed, but the cavalry of the Tang army was not the opponent of the cavalry of the Zhao army, and the cavalry of the two armies engaged in a battle and charged, and the cavalry of the Tang army was repelled by a round of counter-charge of the cavalry of the Zhao army, which caused the pursuit of the Tang army to be slightly frustrated. However, at this time, the Tang Army's Sheng Yan Division had already circled the Zhao Army's flank and attacked.

The two armies were locked in a fierce battle......

After the fierce battle, the two armies retreated, this battle Zhao army general Meng Haigong's brother Meng Qi ghost did not fight, the Hou Wei army of the Tun Guard army suffered nearly 10,000 casualties, Xu Shiji, Shan Xiongxin retreated to Luoyang City to defend.

And Li Xiaogong, Li Jing's army on the South Road crossed Yique and entered the city of Luoyang, echoing with the army of Li Tang North Road that was still on the bank of the Yellow River north of Luoyang, and Zhao's army in Luoyang was suddenly in danger.

Wangwu County, Hanoi County.

Wangwu Mountain stands tall here.

Wangwu Mountain is located on Taihang, with Zhongtiao in the west, Taiyue in the north, and the Yellow River in the south.

There are countless high mountains and dangerous passes near Wangwu Mountain, and there are also world-famous dangerous passes. On the pass is a sheep intestine trail. In order to enter the Central Plains, Duke Wen of Jin widened this road, but the road was still not wide.

5,000 Tang soldiers and 20,000 Hedong militiamen were escorting the army rations on the Li Tang North Road and trekking on the Yiguan Pass. This military grain is not easy to come by, it is the autumn grain that has just been defeated in more than 20 prefectures in Li Tang Guanzhong, and this grain and grass has long been used as a reserve for the war this spring. Therefore, there is no warehousing.

The person responsible for escorting the grain and grass was Qian Jiulong, the general of the Right Military Guard. Qian Jiulong was originally a general of Li Yuan's mansion, and he followed Li Yuan before he started his army in Jinyang. Li Yuan has a lot of trust in Qian Jiulong, whether it is Li Shimin or Li Jiancheng going on the expedition, Qian Jiulong is with the army. As Li Yuan's eyes and ears.

Now in Yiguan, 20,000 civilian servants push the wheelbarrow bus, the chicken bus is popular in Sichuan and Shu, it is said that it was created by Zhuge Liang, and it is most suitable for walking on such a dangerous road in the mountains and mountains.

The servants wore hoods over their shoulders, hands on the handlebars, and white scarves tied over their heads. Twenty thousand civilian servants supported tens of thousands of chicken carts to carry out the implementation of 30,000 stone of military rations, which was enough for the front-line army to support a period of time.

However, it was very difficult to walk, and Qian Jiulong was in a hurry. It also made the civil servants have to leave early every morning, making these civil servants miserable.

This is also no way, Qian Jiulong knew that the army of Li Tang North Road, this time the military rations accompanying him were about to run out, if these tens of thousands of military rations did not keep up, more than 100,000 horses would be hungry. Therefore, Qian Jiulong inevitably urged a little tighter.

These civilian servants do not understand that this military ration is related to the victory or defeat of the war, and this time they are serving. For them, it's just a matter of duty. According to the rent adjustment order issued by Li Tang, each Tang Dynasty citizen must lose two stones to the state a year as rent; Lose two zhang of silk, three taels of cotton. for the tune; Twenty days of service, called regular service.

Compared with the government soldiers who volunteer to fight for the country, life as an ordinary person is actually more difficult. The people of Li Tang couldn't help but envy the people of Zhao State, although Zhao State also paid rent and adjusted two taxes to the people, but they did not want the people to serve, if they wanted to serve, the imperial court would allocate special funds to hire the people.

At this time, the people will be transferred, once the spring ploughing is insufficient, the grain and grass harvest in Hedong will fail this year, and not only will it not be enough for the government to recruit and transfer, but their wives and children will also be hungry. Therefore, Li Tang's civilian servants thought that they would end the war as soon as possible and go home to take care of their few acres of land.

Qian Jiulong urged the grain team to have just crossed Wangwu Mountain and approached the Yellow River, thinking that in three or five days they would be able to send all the military grain to the camp in Hanoi. Qian Jiulong secretly put his mind at ease. However, he didn't expect that near the mountain road, the five thousand Zhao army grassland horsemen were already eyeing him.

Ying Hefu knew that this time his 20,000 cavalry would not be able to intercept the Tang army from crossing the Yellow River, so the only way was to attack the Tang army's grain route.

Therefore, after Ying Hefu reached a tacit understanding with Su Dingfang, he let him defend the three cities of Ha Duong, and he led the army to infiltrate Hanoi County. At present, the main force of the Tang Army is on the front line of Ha Duong, and the garrison of various parts of Hanoi County is insufficient. Ying Hefu then ordered the general to appear in Hanoi County with 15,000 men and horses, and put on a big show of wanting to attack Hanoi County to attract the attention of the Tang army.

And Ying Hefu himself led 5,000 elite horsemen to sneak into the area of Wangwu Mountain. He knew that the vicinity of Wangwu Mountain was the only way for Li Tang to pass through the grain road, so he lurked here for the purpose of the Tang army's grain and grass.

At this time, Qian Jiulong's army of grain had just marched out of the Wangwushan Mountain Range and came to the plain. The militiamen and the Tang soldiers finished this arduous journey, exhausted and asked to rest. Qian Jiulong suppressed the militias all the way, and when he saw that the militias couldn't move anymore, he didn't dare to embarrass them anymore, otherwise it would provoke a civil uprising.

Qian Jiulong immediately asked them to rest by the road.

Suddenly, the whole road was full of resting people, Qian Jiulong looked at the terrain, on the left side of this road is a hillside, on the right side is a slope, and the Yellow River can be seen farther away.

The servants rested next to each other by the road, the chicken cart was thrown aside so casually, and the soldiers took off their leather head pockets, picked up their skins to drink, and chewed some dry food to fill their stomachs.

The civilian servants looked at the Tang soldiers with envy and had something to eat, because when they were on duty, the imperial court did not give the civil servants food, and the civil servants had to bring their own food. In the past few days, the food on the march and civilian service has not been eaten much, and the remaining little must be put on the back road to fill the stomach, and he does not dare to fill his stomach like the Tang sergeants.

As for the grain and grass on the chicken bus, the civilian servants did not dare to make up their minds, the Tang Army had strict military laws, and if there was one or two less grain roads on the current car, the civilian servants would be held accountable, and if it was a big matter, the civilian servants would even be beheaded.

Qian Jiulong saw the soldiers and servants sitting on the ground, completely scattered on the side. Qian Jiulong couldn't help but shake his head, and when he waved his hand, the sharp soldiers of the White Army under his tent suddenly straddled the knife and trotted to the left hillside.

The two of them reached the top of the mountain, and then one of them turned around and shouted, "It's not good, there are enemy troops at the bottom of the mountain!" ”

As soon as the words fell, a war horse appeared from the left side of the soldier, the soldier on the war horse was full of beards and held a scimitar, and at a glance he knew that it was not a Han Chinese. But seeing him swing his knife in his hand, the armor on the chest of this sharp soldier was lightly cut like cutting paper.

The spearhead rolled down the hillside.

Qian Jiulong shouted: "Enemy attack, give me a battle!" ”

After speaking, Qian Jiulong pulled out his sword, and at this time, a cavalry under the black pressure on the right side of the mountain appeared, and in the valley, there was a roar of horses' hooves, and countless cavalry wearing animal skins appeared on the mountain beam, which looked like a black line from a distance.

Standing on the hillside, Inghe pointed his spear forward at the bottom of the hill, and the cavalry of the lower army galloped down the hillside.

You must know that the cavalry descends from the hillside, but the technique is working, the cavalry galloping in front of it, if you don't pay attention, it is easy to miss the front hooves, and the cavalry behind the guide zhì chain reaction, the horse's hooves mixed with garlic, so that the attack lineup of the downhill impact is scattered. It is said that Yue Fei's son Yue Yun once fell down the hill during a horse downhill training, the horse stumbled and fell, Yue Fei was so angry that he almost wanted to behead Yue Yun.

However, this qiē is very skilled for the cavalry of the Fanjun who was born on horseback and grew up on horseback. But seeing that they drove their horses from the top of the mountain into a dense queue, galloping towards the Tang army and the grain army at the bottom of the mountain.

The sound of horses' hooves was incessant.

When the Tang soldiers under the mountain saw this scene, they all changed color.
