Chapter 339: Decisive Battle against Li Mi

In the summer of the thirteenth year of the Great Cause, on June 24, in the early morning, after more than a day of careful preparation, the Sui army and the Zhai Li coalition army in the eastern capital, which had been confronted and entangled for more than two months, each dispatched the main elite, and under the personal leadership of the commanders of both sides, they set out and rushed to the meeting place agreed by the two sides - Shili Fort!

The banner covers the sky, the swords and guns are like a forest, the Sui army in the eastern capital sent 30,000 troops, and the Zhai and Li coalition forces sent a total of 56,000 troops.

The decisive battle has not begun, the scout outpost battle has begun, the commanders of the two armies are well aware of the other party's treacherous and despicable character, scheming, both sent a large number of elite infantry cavalry as scouts, closely search the hills and woods on both sides of the road, ditches and valleys, do not give the other side any chance to ambush, the scouts meet during the operation, and naturally a fierce battle broke out, you chase me, you cut me and kill, the infantry scouts went deep into the forest and were ambushed by the enemy infantry, and escaped from the woods and immediately had cavalry rush to respond, and beat the pursuers to the desert and fled, Then the enemy came to reinforce again, and the anti-pursuers became the pursued again, and every position that could be ambushed by reconnaissance could be in danger of life, and as long as they stayed in the wilderness for a little longer, it was immediately possible to attract a surprise attack by the enemy's cavalry, and the battle had not yet begun, and there were already twenty or thirty scout soldiers on both sides who were bloodied on the battlefield.

Both sides made sufficient preparations before the war, not to mention feeding the war horses and polishing the swords and guns, not to mention that they had enough arrows and crossbows, dry food and drinking water, in order to boost the morale of the army, Li Mi and Zhai Rang pretended to be ghosts, divination and fortune seeking, sprinkled powdered rosin into the brazier, made a dazzling red glow, and took the opportunity to seek the sign of the victory in this battle, coaxing the almost illiterate Zhai and Li allied army soldiers cheered; Chen Fuliang delivered an impassioned speech in front of the officers and men of the Sui army, encouraging the soldiers to fight bravely, serve the national court, promise all kinds of heavy rewards, and recall that he had repeatedly defeated the weak in the previous battles, and won more with less, and used his dazzling achievements to inspire the morale of the army and boost morale.

In addition, Chen Yingliang sent three envoys in advance to Banzhu to contact Wang Shichong, informing Wang Shichong of today's battle, and asking Wang Shichong to launch an attack on the camp east of the Tiger Prison Pass of the Zhai and Li coalition forces today, so as to distract the enemy's energy and also hit and shake the morale of the opponent's army. Li Mi also had long been prepared for this, in addition to ordering the rear troops who stayed in the camp to strictly guard against death, he also told the camp guards that when they reported the military situation to him, he must ask the soldiers to keep it strictly confidential, and not to leak the slightest rumor of Wang Shichong's fierce attack on the east side of the Tiger Prison Pass!

At two o'clock, the Zhai and Li coalition forces, which were slightly closer, rushed to the predetermined battlefield, quickly seized the favorable position of backlighting and tailwind, lined up in the west, and immediately divided an army to seize the high ground in the south, condescendingly overlooking the battlefield, protecting the left flank of the self-army, and only leaving a small space on the right flank for the Sui army in the eastern capital to intersperse and detour, and grasp the geographical advantage as desired.

Li Mi, who thinks highly of himself, ordered the whole army to arrange the glaive array, and deployed a large number of infantry on both wings to protrude forward, similar to the crescent moon, so that Xu Shichang and Yang Jishan commanded the left and right wings respectively, and he and Zhai Rang sat in the center, gathering the elite of Zhai and Li's two armies in the Chinese army, forming a moon ring, and the few cavalry were arranged by Li Mi in the rear, as a surprise attack. This formation is characterized by strong attack power, especially focusing on attacking the enemy's two flanks, and the disadvantage is that the mobility is slightly poor, and there are not many troops capable of maneuvering and fighting.

The hour is approaching, Chen Yingliang also led the army to the battlefield, set up a footstep half a mile away from the Zhai and Li coalition army, and quickly arranged the troops, to Li Mipo's surprise, the mobile strength surpassed the Zhai and Li coalition army in the eastern capital Sui army actually took the initiative to give up the mobile advantage, arranged a strong defensive square array, let the infantry form a small phalanx, in a ring outside, cavalry inside, Chen Yingliang led the Chinese army in the core of the square array, commanding the overall situation, at the forefront is Chen Yingliang's command of the most able to fight a tough battle Kan Liang, the big Mo knife is as bright as a forest, The layers are intimidating.

After carefully observing the layout of the Sui army, Pei Renji, known as a famous general, opened his mouth and said to Zhai Rang and Li Mi: "Duke Wei, Duke Dongjun, Chen Yingliang met the enemy with a square array, and hid the cavalry inside, the purpose should be to defend the counterattack steadily, first use the infantry to consume our troops, wait for us to show our flaws, and then use the cavalry to attack our weak points, so as to turn the tide of the battle and strive for victory." ”

Li Mi nodded slightly, agreeing with Pei Renji's judgment and analysis, but his brows were slightly furrowed, because Li Mi knew very well that although the defense of the Fangyuan Array of the Sui Army in the Eastern Capital was strong, it was used to deal with the Glaive Formation of the Zhai and Li coalition army, but it would cause the consequence of the army's wide contact and long front, and then cause a large number of casualties, Chen Yingliang, who had always been treacherous, chose to deploy the formation like this, and the intention of deliberately consuming the combat strength of the Zhai and Li coalition forces was very obvious, and the Fangyuan Array, which was not conducive to mobility, was also doomed to Chen Yingliang to order a retreat. Today, the attitude of fighting to the end with the Zhai and Li coalition forces is very resolute.

In the past, Chen Yingliang had such an attitude, of course, Li Mi couldn't ask for it, but after listening to Zhang Yongtong's analysis of the strategic situation of the self-army the day before yesterday, Li Mi was faintly afraid of fighting so hard with Chen Yingliang, because there was also a Wang Shichong in Li Mi's rear, and although Wang Shichong's danger was not as good as Chen Yingliang's, it could not be completely ignored.

At this time, Pei Renji's son Pei Xingyan also spoke, pointed to the Sui army and said, "Father, look, the newspaper **** is also here, just in front of Chen Yingliang's banner array." ”

Li Mi looked up with everyone, and saw that the Baoguo army wearing a conspicuous white robe really appeared in the Sui army array, and was arranged by Chen Yingliang in front of the flag array, behind the other Sui cavalry, Li Mi nodded slightly, knowing that Chen Yingliang was likely to arrange other cavalry to charge and cover, and then let the most loyal and brave Baoguo army launch a fatal blow. Guessing Chen Yingliang's plan, Li Mi remembered one more thing, and hurriedly ordered to the left and right: "Send more scouts who are familiar with the situation of the officers and soldiers to go around the official and military formations to investigate the enemy's situation, and report to me the situation in the rear of the official and military formations." ”

Chen Yingliang, who has been concentrating on military affairs for more than two months, is not in vain, just a short time later, the Sui army in the eastern capital that has received strict training has been set up, Chen Yingliang nodded with satisfaction, and led the captain Chi Jingde and three dogs and other generals to lead an army out of the battle, and shouted Zhai Rang and Li Mi to answer before the battle, Zhai Rang and Li Mi happily obeyed, and also led an army out of the battle, but before and after the battle, the commanders on both sides unceremoniously opened their mouths and scolded, Chen Yingliang scolded Zhai Rang and Li Mi for being thieves against the country, Zhai Rang and Li Mi also scolded Chen Fuliang for being a tyrant's lackey.

"Li Mi, Zhai Rang, one of you is a dignitary, and the other is a court official, who has eaten the court for a long time, and does not want to repay the king's kindness, but gathers people to make rebellion and rebel against the court, and the crime deserves death." Chen Fuliang shouted decently: "Two thieves who rebel against the country, why don't you get off your horse and kneel down quickly?" Pull back from the precipice and find a way to live? ”

"Phew!" Li Mi spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm very unhygienically, and scolded: "Chen Yingliang, you tyrant lackey who wags his tail and begs for mercy!" The tyrant Yang Guang poisoned the living beings, brutalized the people, and the sins were surging, and heaven and earth did not tolerate them! You, a dog official, aided and abused, are also guilty of no punishment! If you are smart, surrender on your knees quickly, otherwise my Great Wei Righteous Army will attack with a division, and you will regret it too late! ”

"Night mouse! Dare to speak outrageously? Chen Fuliang laughed wildly, and then suddenly changed his previous tone and scolded: "Li Mi Xiaoer! Your mother's eighteenth generation ancestor! What madness are you, you just rely on the fact that there is a Zhai Rang next to you as a shield for the dead ghost, and there are Shan Xiongxin and Xu Shixian, a group of Wagang stupid birds who charge into battle for you, and you are sold and give you money, otherwise you dare to fight me head-on with your bird-like appearance? Don't think I don't know, you and Zhai Rang, a stupid bird, are actually greedy for Zhai Rang's elite soldiers! Zhai asked you, an old fool, if you are smart, quickly slaughter Li Mi, otherwise, sooner or later, your head will be used by him as a night pot! ”

Although it was clear that Chen Fuliang had never cultivated his morality, he never expected Chen Fuliang to scold so viciously, and in anger, Li Mi shouted: "Who will take down the head of Chen Yingliang's dog official for me?" ”

There are actually only a handful of fighting scenes in the cold weapon war, but the scene of a fierce general leading a small number of elites to attack the enemy formation often appears, so Li Mi's words did not fall, Pei Xingyan immediately agreed loudly, and led more than ten personal soldiers to rush forward, Chen Yingliang was furious when he saw it, and scolded: "Pei Xingyan, you, a dog thief who betrayed the country to survive and abandoned his sister and mother, also have a face in front of me?" Wei Chi Jingde, capture this thief for me! ”

"The last will obey! I don't need help, I'm enough for one person! "Wei Chi Jingde shouted at the promise, alone with a lance to pat the horse, directly take Pei Xingyan, Li Mi and Zhai Rang and others all know Pei Xingyan's martial arts, seeing this scene all secretly happy in their hearts, all say that this time Pei Xingyan will definitely win a big victory, and the army can easily seize the opportunity.

The cruel facts made Li Mi and Zhai Rang and others smash their glasses, Pei Xingyan is certainly unstoppable, the long lance breaks the wind, the momentum is like lightning, but the lance method on Yu Chi Jingde's side is faster and more fierce, not dodging or dodging just to take Pei Xingyan's chest, Pei Xingyan knows very well that once he is pierced, there is no reason to survive, and he dodges with a little timidity, Yu Chi Jingde goes straight to the horse, and directly takes Pei Xingyan's personal soldiers behind him, the long lance sweeps, the tip of the lance accurately hits the target, and immediately smashes the head of a Pei Xingyan personal soldier.

The soldiers of the Sui army applauded, and Li Mi, Zhai Rang and others changed their faces slightly, only then did they understand why Chen Yingliang dared to lead the black-faced general with three people and three horsemen to block their seven thousand elites, while Wei Chi Jingde was undiminished, and he killed the enemy next to him with three strikes and five divisions. Chen Yingliang didn't dare to let Yu Chi Jingde take the risk alone, and when he gave the order, more than ten personal soldiers pounced on him with knives in their hands, and caught Pei Xingyan's personal soldiers for Wei Chi Jingde, so that Wei Chi Jingde could concentrate on fighting with Pei Xingyan without distraction.

This battle made the palms of the coaches on both sides sweat, Pei Xingyan and Wei Chi Jingde's two fierce generals fought head-on is certainly thrilling, dangerous, always crisis, the contest between ordinary soldiers is also tragic and abnormal, knives and guns fly to the flesh and blood, horizontal knives cut off the Tianling cover, blood and brains splash together, spears pierce the stomach and intestines, blood-red intestines flow all over the ground, the sound of knives and guns colliding is always endless, hugging together on the ground rolling and scuffling, punching and kicking even the teeth are used several pairs.

During the fight, Yu Chi Jingde and Pei Xingyan suddenly grabbed each other's mallets with their left hands, struggled to snatch each other's weapons, twisted and twisted, and clenched their teeth to compete for strength.

At this time, more than a dozen good hands in Chen Yingliang's personal army team had the upper hand, and several Sui soldiers who killed their opponents immediately rushed forward to help, one of the Sui soldiers also handed the snatched weapon to Wei Chi Jingde, Pei Xingyan saw that the situation was not good, so he could only quickly pull out his horse and go back, and the rest of his personal soldiers were also immediately defeated, Wei Chi Jingde wanted to catch up, but was stopped by Chen Yingliang, and could only scold and hate Le Ma, but Chen Fuliang, who was victorious, laughed and ordered to return to the battle, and praised the expression of Wei Chi Jingde and others.

Li Mi and Zhai Rang, who were frustrated in sending troops, also returned to the flag formation of the army with a blue face, Pei Xingyan came up to ask for guilt, Li Mi didn't care, waved his hand and asked Pei Xingyan to retreat, and Pei Xingyan just retreated, his son Pei Renji walked up again, and said with a happy face: "Duke Wei, Duke Dongjun, Daxi, the scout is coming to report, behind the phalanx of the official army, there is a section of the official army team, and it is the banner of the invincible battalion." ”

"Invincible Battalion?" Li Mi and Zhai made this joy not trivial, and hurriedly followed Pei Renji's guidance to observe the formation of the Sui army, although because of the distance and the barrier of the team, they could not see the famous Sui army banner written by Chen Fuliang, but they also knew the approximate location of the famous Sui army. Secretly happy in his heart, Li Mi and Zhai Rang hurriedly discussed a few words, and then immediately dispatched troops, arranged for the army to attack, and took the initiative to attack the Sui army.

In the sound of war drums, the formal contest began, three bands of about 1,000 people of the thief army infantry attacked in three ways, all the way straight to the front of the Sui army, two ways to outflank the two wings of the Sui army's formation, the Sui army soldiers according to the order to stand still, stand firm, first use bows and crossbows to suppress the enemy's charging speed, and then meet the enemy with swords and guns, and the thief army to start a battle.

The result of the battle was a fiasco of the thief army, the Sui army led by Kan Liang Mo knife soldiers were in strict formation, skillfully coordinated, and the frontal attacking thief infantry did not say that they were defeated, but it was difficult to rush to a position where they could fight hand-to-hand, and the Sui army's big Mo knife was up and down, straight and horizontal, killing the oncoming thief soldiers to the point of crying wolf, corpses all over the field, no matter how the thief army supervised the team urged and persecuted, the frontal charging thief army team was still quickly defeated.

The situation on the right flank of the south is also good, because the terrain in the south is open, suitable for the assembly and rotation of the army, and the pressure is the greatest, Chen Yingliang arranged for Luo Shixin and He Yanyu to sit in this position, and the elite of Qi County under their command not only effectively resisted the enemy's charge, but also continued to support the small phalanx of friendly troops, crushing the thief soldiers who broke into the gap between the Sui army's formation.

The situation on the left flank in the north was a little worse, although the generals Niu Jinda and He Lanyi who were sitting here also tried their best to resist, but the Sui army in the eastern capital under their command was not elite enough after all, and they just didn't let the thief army kill into the phalanx, but suppressed the enemy's charge ineffectively, giving the thief army a chance to fight hand-to-hand. However, fortunately, Chen Yingliang had already taken this into account before, and let the Sui army in the eastern capital be responsible for the northern battlefield, which has more hills and undulating terrain, which is not conducive to the gathering of a large number of troops, and is not conducive to cavalry charge, so even if it is a weak point here, it is still difficult for the Zhai Li coalition army to invest heavy troops here and fully grasp the local advantage.

Li Mi refused to let go of any opportunity to defeat Chen Fuliang, and found that the Sui army's northern front battlefield strength was less, Li Mi immediately ordered an increase in troops on the northern front, as much as possible to increase the pressure on the northern front of the Sui army, to hit the morale of the Sui army, and also to contain the elite reserves of the Sui army. Pei Renji, who was next to him, saw Li Mi's arrangement, and hurriedly reminded: "Duke Wei, the time has passed, and the sun is gradually in the sky, if we don't step up the frontal pressure on the officials and troops, and if we delay any longer, the direction of the sun will be unfavorable to us." ”

Looking up at the cloudless clear sky, Li Mi hesitated, but still turned to Zhai Rang and said: "Dongjun Gong, General Pei is right, although the frontal defense of the official army is the strongest, if we don't seize the last opportunity when the light is favorable, hurry up and gain the upper hand on the front, and delay it, our front will be too disadvantageous." ”

Zhai Rang understood what Li Mi meant, and also looked up at the scorching sun in the sky, knowing that if he continued to waste time, once the sun turned to the west, even if the army launched a strong attack from the front, it would inevitably be affected by the interference caused by the dazzling sunlight, which was very unfavorable to the attacking party. So after gritting his teeth, Zhai Rang ordered: "Pei Renji, give you two thousand elite soldiers to attack the front of the official army." ”

Pei Renji agreed, immediately according to the order, the momentum of the elite attack is also extraordinary, two thousand after countless actual combat experience of the Wagang elite formation neat, action in unison, gestures are murderous, in order to deal with the Sui army Mo knife, but also set up a full two rows of long shields, with the spear throwing, such as the wall to advance, the soldiers and horses have not arrived, the cold murderous aura has come to the face. In order to help the elite of these two kilowatt gangs, Li Mi also pulled out 3,000 infantry from his command and stepped forward to follow the action.

At the same time, Chen Fuliang also said to his distant cousin Pei Xingfang, who participated in the battle for the first time: "Xingfang, do you know why the Zhai Li thief army wants to strengthen its frontal attack on us? Because of the rays, the sun shines from east to west at this time, which is beneficial to the thieves' attack on us, but if it is in the afternoon, the sun's rays are favorable to us, so the thieves seize the time to invest in elite combat, which is the most correct way. ”

Pei Xingfang nodded, thanked his distant cousin for his advice, and said, "Brother, this thief army is extraordinary, and it is our famous uncle who commands the army, what should I do?" ”

"I can only have a hard top, I arrange this square array, which is equivalent to taking the initiative to give up the right to maneuver, and at present, I can only let Kan Liang have a hard top." Chen Fuliang shrugged his shoulders, and then said: "But fortunately, our uncle's so-called famous general is very watery, and Kan Liang can withstand him." “

In Chen's good words, Kan Liang did withstand Pei Renji, but it was also very difficult, relying on the long shield cover to rush to the front of the Sui army Mo knife team, Pei Renji shouted, the Wagang soldiers immediately threw three rounds of javelins, the guns broke through the air, flew out in an arc, and fell into the Sui army formation along the parabola, many Sui army Mo knife hands fell to the ground, the formation was flawed, the Wagang elite immediately charged, shouting and rushing to the Sui army, some Wagang soldiers also drilled into the space exposed after the Sui army Mo knife soldiers fell to the ground like swimming fish loaches, When the short knife in the back rushed up to make up for the leak, many Sui soldiers were cut down and stabbed to death by the short weapons of the Wagang army, and the Wagang army took advantage of the weakness to enter and successfully killed the first row of defense lines of the Sui army's Mo knife soldiers.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Kan Liang hurriedly led the army forward, caught the Wagang soldiers, and responded to the retreat and reorganization of the front army, but Pei Renji refused to give Kan Liang this opportunity, and led the army to press and not give the Sui army a chance to rotate, the two armies were entangled and fighting, and the Wagang army, which was fighting with the backlight, had a slight upper hand, and kept desperately squeezing and seizing space, Kan Liang was forced to give up the line and fight, and led the army to start a melee with the elite of Wagang, and the casualty figure also rose rapidly, and the infantry of Li Mi's army behind also took the opportunity to kill and attack the other small phalanxes of the Sui army.

What made Li Mi and Zhai Rang and others very happy was that in order to reverse the positive passive situation, Chen Fuliang immediately put in a group of reserves to help Kan Liang reorganize the formation and regain space, seeing this scene, Li Mi also immediately strengthened the attack on the two wings of the Sui army, and regardless of the strong combat effectiveness of the southern front of the Sui army, he ordered Yang Jishan on the left wing of the army to lead the right wing to break away from the main position and detour back to the open south to launch a strong attack, as a result, although Luo Shixin and He Yanyu blocked Yang Jishan's strong attack, but they were also entangled by Yang Jishan. It is difficult to withdraw reinforcements to other battlefields.

The next battle was both cruel and boring, the superior Wagang army attacked and attacked again, the weak Sui army resisted and resisted again, the three battlefields on the front and the two wings shook the sky, the flesh and blood were wild, the heads were intertwined, and the soldiers of the two armies who were killed full of blood could be seen everywhere, and the reserves led by the Liu Heimin brothers continued to attack everywhere to make up for the leaks, and the thieves and soldiers who entered the Sui army fought fiercely. As a result, although the Zhai and Li coalition forces had a certain upper hand, they were never able to break through Chen Fuliang's turtle square array, Qin Qiong and Cheng Yanjin led the Sui cavalry to still stand still in the formation, and Bao **** has been hiding behind the other cavalry without any movement.

The reason why Chen Fuliang refused to send out the cavalry Li Mi knew was nothing more than waiting for the Zhai and Li coalition army to be tired after a long battle, revealing flaws, and then launching a surprise attack, at that time, the light would definitely turn to favor the Sui army, and the Sui cavalry could charge and attack much more certainly, but Li Mi was not afraid of this, the sun had just been centered, Li Mi called Shan Xiongxin, who led the cavalry, and instructed him: "Behind the official army array, there is a position with the banner of an invincible battalion, you take the cavalry back to the back of the official army, rush there, and after you succeed, Immediately smash the official flag array, understand? ”

"Understood!" Shan Xiongxin nodded vigorously.

At this time, Chen Fuliang also followed Li Mi's wishes, and even ordered the Baoguo Army to step forward, crossed the two armies of Qin Qiong and Cheng Yanjin, and stood out in front of the cavalry, putting on a posture of preparing to use the Baoguo Army to attack the front of the Zhai and Li coalition army. Seeing this scene, Li Mi and Shan Xiongxin were overjoyed, Li Mi patted Shan Xiongxin and said: "General Shan, a God-given opportunity, it's up to you!" ”

"Duke Wei rest assured, if you don't take down Chen Yingliang's head as a dog official, the last general will swear not to withdraw his troops!" Shan Xiongxin agreed loudly.

After saying that, as soon as Shan Xiongxin gave up his hand, he immediately rushed down to organize the cavalry to attack, Li Mi turned to Zhai Rang again, and said loudly: "Dongjun Gong, we must strengthen the frontal attack on the official army, compress the charging space of the official cavalry, and also buy time for the single brother." ”

Glancing at the battlefield of the Sui army's position in the distance, Zhai Rang pulled out his knife and said viciously: "This time, I will personally lead the troops!" "The long shield, combined with the spear of the throwing spear, advanced like a wall, and before the soldiers and horses arrived, the cold murderous aura was already coming. In order to help the elite of these two kilowatt gangs, Li Mi also pulled out 3,000 infantry from his command and stepped forward to follow the action.

At the same time, Chen Fuliang also said to his distant cousin Pei Xingfang, who participated in the battle for the first time: "Xingfang, do you know why the Zhai Li thief army wants to strengthen its frontal attack on us? Because of the rays, the sun shines from east to west at this time, which is beneficial to the thieves' attack on us, but if it is in the afternoon, the sun's rays are favorable to us, so the thieves seize the time to invest in elite combat, which is the most correct way. ”

Pei Xingfang nodded, thanked his distant cousin for his advice, and said, "Brother, this thief army is extraordinary, and it is our famous uncle who commands the army, what should I do?" ”

In Chen's good words, Kan Liang did withstand Pei Renji, but it was also very difficult, relying on the long shield cover to rush to the front of the Sui army Mo knife team, Pei Renji shouted, the Wagang soldiers immediately threw three rounds of javelins, the guns broke through the air, flew out in an arc, and fell into the Sui army formation along the parabola, many Sui army Mo knife hands fell to the ground, the formation was flawed, the Wagang elite immediately charged, shouting and rushing to the Sui army, some Wagang soldiers also drilled into the space exposed after the Sui army Mo knife soldiers fell to the ground like swimming fish loaches, When the short knife in the back rushed up to make up for the leak, many Sui soldiers were cut down and stabbed to death by the short weapons of the Wagang army, and the Wagang army took advantage of the weakness to enter and successfully killed the first row of defense lines of the Sui army's Mo knife soldiers.

Glancing at the battlefield of the Sui army's position in the distance, Zhai Rang pulled out his knife and said viciously: "This time, I will personally lead the troops!" ”
