Chapter 707: The Battle of Yique (First Update)
After Qi Ashu invaded a large camp of the Tang army, it was very smooth to slash and kill all the way, but not every Zhao army was like this.
Shan Xiongxin personally led 10,000 horses to bypass Yique City and appeared from the other side, he wanted to attack the Tang Army's central army camp, and won a complete battle, but here he was blocked by Zhang Gongjin, the general of the Tang Army.
The rest of the Tang army was tired of attacking the city during the day, but Zhang Gongjin's department did not go into battle as a new force, so his subordinates were full of energy, and Zhang Gongjin had already asked the Tang army's chief general Ren Guijian to say that Yique was the southern gateway to Luoyang, and if it was lost, the Zhao army would inevitably counterattack to recapture the city.
Although Ren Gui felt that what Zhang Gongjin said was reasonable, but this construction was opposed by Pang Yu, Li Daliang and other generals, this is also no way, the siege of the city during the day is too expensive, and the whole army has to dig camps, and it is too exhausting to keep vigil at night, if they let their soldiers stay vigilant at night, it is simply difficult for strongmen.
Seeing that his opinion was not adopted, Zhang Gongjin returned to the camp and immediately ordered half of the soldiers to rest, and the other half of the soldiers to wear armor as a warning, and at this time Shan Xiongxin's 10,000 troops were attacking Zhang Gongjin's camp.
Zhang Gongjin ordered the whole army to fight at the moment when Shan Xiongxin's men and horses appeared, and also ordered the soldiers to dig a pit with a radius of 10 zhang in front of the Chinese army's big tent, covered with blankets, and then covered with floating soil, and the rest of the soldiers were all ambushed around the Chinese army's big tent.
At this time, the Zhao army had entered the Tang army camp, and Shan Xiongxin carried a horse lance in his hand, rode a jujube red horse, and attacked Zhang Gongjin's camp surrounded by soldiers on the left and right.
Shan Xiongxin saw that the enemy resistance in the Tang army camp was weak, and it was strange at the moment, he was also a general who had been in battle for a long time, and he could judge whether the situation was abnormal at a glance.
When he ordered Xiongxin, he shouted: "The Tang army is cheating, and the front army is slow to search!" ”
The sergeant listened to Shan Xiongxin's words and immediately sent the order to the front army. In order to capture the general of the Tang Army, Shan Xiongxin entered the tent of the Tang Army, and advanced quickly, waiting to hear the warning behind. Stop the advance at the moment, and the whole army is on standby.
Zhang Gongjin saw that the Zhao army had no plan, and knew that he was recognized by the other party, so he immediately ordered the soldiers who were ambushed around the big tent of the Chinese army to counterattack together and encircle and annihilate the forward of the Zhao army that broke into the camp.
The Tang army ambushed the soldiers from three sides, holding torches and torches, and the Zhao army was already in formation. Platoon gunners, sword and shield men guarded the left and right, and fought and retreated.
Zhang Gongjin saw that he couldn't attack, so he personally went into battle and pulled his horse to kill. The two sergeants were in front of the big tent of the Chinese army, and the fight was extremely fierce. Just when Zhang Gongjin was about to repel the advance of the Zhao army, Shan Xiongxin slapped his horse and killed, and Shan Xiongxin single-handedly challenged several generals of the Tang army.
The soldiers of Zhao, who were almost in a desperate situation under the siege of the Tang army, cried with joy and shouted: "General save me!" General save me! ”
Shan Xiongxin didn't say a word. Wherever there were soldiers shouting, they led their men and horses to kill them, and the Tang soldiers could not resist. Zhang Gongjin personally went into battle to stop Shan Xiongxin, but was also killed and retreated by Shan Xiongxin's wielding of a horse lance.
Zhang Gongjin retreated, and saw that Shan Xiongxin was invincible when he rushed left and right, and said: "I heard that Li Mi was under Wang Shichong. It belongs to the three armies of Shan Xiongxin and Yongguan, and when I see it today, it is true. ”
The soldier on the side said: "General, do you want to avoid its edge?" ”
Zhang Gongjin said: "Don't worry, Shan Xiongxin is the main force, if we resist his attack, our army's big tent can be guaranteed, and if we delay for a while, our army's chances of victory will be one point higher." At that moment, Zhang Gongjin ordered the soldiers to change formations. turned from attack to defense, and resisted the way of Shan Xiongxin's 10,000 horses to the death.
Zhang Gongjin and Shan Xiongxin are fighting fiercely. On the other side, Xu Shiji also entered the Tang army camp from the flank, Wang Bo and Meng Haigong each led men and horses to besiege a large camp of the Tang army. The striker Xiao led Luo Shixin to lead 3,000 light cavalry to break in. It was the military camp of Li Daliang, the general of the Tang Army.
However, it was said that Li Daliang was originally a Sui general, but later demoted to Li Mi, and after Li Mi was defeated, he voted for Li Tang. It defended the Turks on the border and was promoted to Sima with accumulated merit. In the battle of breaking Wang Shichong, he defeated Wang Honglie, the general of the Zheng army, attacked Xiangyang, and repelled the attack of Yang Daosheng, the general of Xiao Milling, after defending Xiangyang, and was also famous in the Tang army.
At present, Li Daliang was promoted by Li Yuan as the assassin of Anzhou with the merit of Ping Wang Shichong, and in the battle of Yique, it was his subordinates who took the lead in attacking the South Gate City Tower and made contributions to the capture of Yique.
However, it is precisely because of the hard work in the daytime battle that the soldiers are exhausted, the defensive barracks are built very hastily, and they are not in accordance with the rules of the Tang Army, and most of the soldiers are very tired, and there are very few soldiers on night duty. When Li Daliang's military camp was attacked by Luo Shixin, most of the soldiers were still asleep, and where could the soldiers on duty at night resist the advance of Luo Shixin's cavalry.
The camp gate was breached in a moment, and the Tang soldiers rushed out of the tent, trampling on each other in the confusion, killing and injuring countless people. Sergeant Zhao threw the torches in hand into the barracks, burned the grain and ordnance, and the Tang army camp was immediately ablaze.
Li Daliang led the commanders, and the guards wanted to reconvene the army, but Luo Shixin's cavalry came like the wind, and under the overwhelming blow of the rain of arrows, the Tang soldiers rushed to flee.
Li Daliang was immediately furious, and he ordered the soldiers to organize a complete regiment of soldiers and horses, raise a large shield and kill the cavalry. Seeing that there was a shield array, the Tang soldiers who were killed and scattered gathered from all sides. Li Daliang placed the men and horses and returned them to the back of the shield array. The Tang army suddenly snowballed and regathered nearly a thousand troops.
With this force, Li Daliang was immediately confident that he wanted to drive the Zhao army out of the camp.
However, when Luo Shixin saw this scene, he already had a way to break the enemy, he ordered 3,000 cavalry to divide into two roads, all the way to attract in the front, and he led the way to outflank from the flank, and killed the weak flank of the shield array.
This cavalry, the war horses are wrapped in leather armor, and the soldiers are wearing strong helmets, and the equipment is equivalent to the most elite Yue knights in the Tang army's soldiers. Luo Shixin led the soldiers to kill like the wind, and the soldiers on horseback let out a monstrous shouting and killing, and the hooves sounded like thunder, roaring and trampling.
The soldier picked up the horse lance and plunged into the Tang army formation at once. The horses rushed like oxen to push up the Tang soldiers one after another, and the soldiers in the second row waved their horse lances like the wind in the Tang army's array, and the resisting Tang army was instantly broken like a praying mantis blocking the car.
Li Daliang saw the scene, and immediately picked up his gun and mounted his horse, led the pro-army to take the Zhao cavalry directly, and counterattacked the Zhao cavalry, trying to save the defeat.
In the dark night, surrounded by the raging Tang army camp, Li Daliang rode his horse in front and shouted at the Zhao army cavalry who had entered the Tang army camp in front: "Is the enemy general willing to fight with a certain Li Daliang!" ”
There was a long laugh in the middle of the battle, and a tall and thin young man rode his horse slowly, shouting: "Don will look at the gun!" ”
"This person must be Luo Shixin, if you kill this person, Zhao Jun's spirit will be severely defeated!" The other party rode his horse and came straight to kill, Li Daliang thought so in his heart, and shook his spirit to face the battle.
After a few shots, the war horse neighed, and Li Daliang fell heavily from the horse, blood spurting wildly from his mouth.
Luo Shixin rode his horse to Li Daliang and said: "You are also a brave general, it's a pity, you will be a general in the next life, don't bump into a certain again!" ”
After speaking, Luo Shixin reversed the tail of the iron gun in his hand, and the gun bar smashed heavily towards Li Daliang's skull.
On the mountain behind Yique, there is already a slight morning light on the horizon here.
Tens of thousands of Tang troops were lying in ambush in the mountains, and Li Xiaogong, the chief general of the Tang army, and Shi Li Jing, the marching commander, sat on the mountain with solemn faces, and seemed to be indifferent to the 30,000 forward troops of the Tang army that were being attacked by the Zhao army and Hou Wei at the foot of the mountain.
At this time, a white sergeant ran to the mountain and told Li Xiaogong and Li Jing: "Qi Yu Marshal, Changshi, Zhao army attacked our army at night, the two armies have been fighting fiercely for three hours, in addition to the Chinese army, and the camp of General Zhang Gongjin, the right front army, the right wing of the right army, the right Yu Hou army, the left Yu Hou army, and the left left army of the left wing were all broken by the Zhao army. Right now, the Zhao army is besieging the Chinese army camp and is fighting fiercely! ”
When the words fell, Li Xiaogong and Sheng Yan stood up from the maza and hugged his fists and said: "The Chinese army camp is in danger, and the last general begs the marshal for permission to rescue the Chinese army." ”
Li Jing said: "No, Zhao Jun is not tired yet!" Otherwise, our army will be in vain by setting up an ambush in the middle of the night, so please wait another half hour. ”
Li Xiaogong glanced at Li Jing and said a word: "Wait!" ”
Xu Shiji was wearing a moon-white cloak, standing in the night breeze, looking at the morning light on the horizon, he knew that it was about to dawn.
Xu Shiji said: "Pass the order, Mingjin withdraw the troops!" ”
"But our army is almost able to capture the big tent of the Tang Army!"
"Don't fall in love, Mingjin!"
The sound of gold sounded in the Zhao army, and Luo Shixin, Wang Bo and other generals who were storming the Tang army did not hesitate to give up the pursuit of the Tang army and returned to the camp.
And Shan Xiongxin's men and horses still did not retreat, and the generals on the side said to Shan Xiongxin: "It's just that you can almost break through the Tang Army's central army camp and get full merit, why should the general be subject to Xu Shiji!" ”
Shan Xiongxin listened to the general's words and said: "Although I am unwilling, I have an appointment with Xu Shiji first, and I will stop the army in the morning." ”
The generals listened and said: "General, the Tun Guards are the Tun Guards, and my Hou Guards are the Hou Guards, why do you listen to his orders, do you want to see a night of hard work, and all of them will be in vain?" ”
Shan Xiongxin was worried for a while, at this time, a Tang character handsome flag was erected on the opposite side of the hill, and in the morning light, the besieged Tang soldiers all cheered together when they saw it: "It's the big handsome, the big handsome's reinforcements have arrived!" ”
On the top of the mountain, Li Xiaogong shouted to the generals: "Since the Zhao army plans to withdraw its troops in Mingjin, we can't hide anymore, Sheng Yanshi!" ”
"The last general!"
"You led the men and horses of the headquarters, leaned out of the valley, and cut off the back road of the Zhao army! As long as you can hold on for half an hour, you will be counted. ”
"No!"
"The rest of the armies will attack with the generals!"
The generals of the Tang Army on the left and right were suddenly ordered.
After Li Xiaogong finished speaking, he killed the Tang army that had been ambushed on the mountain from three sides, and killed the Zhao army all over the mountain.
