Chapter 8: The Annihilation of the Army

At that time, Ye Yunfeng first led 50,000 light cavalry to the front line in order to better survey the enemy's situation, and then the 150,000 army marched at a normal marching speed, and then joined him in Ningyuan City.

Through probing the enemy's situation, it was learned that the commander of the coalition army was the chief general of the Northern Qi Dynasty, Gao Si, who knew this person Ye Yunfeng very well, and had fought several times on the battlefield before.

Ye Yunfeng knew that it was when he was in command of the Qi Tang Alliance, and the odds of victory in his heart were a few percent more, but Ye Yunfeng had always been cautious, although the commander of the enemy army lacked strategy, he could not take it lightly.

Therefore, Ye Yunfeng himself was still waiting for the battle, and at the same time sent someone to send a letter to Li Ting, the main general of the Southern Tang Dynasty, in addition to reminiscing with Li Ting, after all, when the two attacked Southern Chu together, they fought side by side, and they actually had a certain feeling.

Although each is the master now, there is nothing wrong with contacting the feelings, but Ye Yunfeng's main purpose is to divide the trust between the Southern Tang Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty.

Because he knew that the Southern Tang Dynasty didn't really want to fight this battle, it must have been the Northern Qi who instigated and instigated it, so that today's situation would be there. However, Ye Yunfeng's discordant plan did not succeed, and this time Li Houzhao of the Southern Tang Dynasty seemed to have made up his mind to unite with Northern Qi to fight this battle.

This is something that Ye Yunfeng never expected, because he felt that this was not in line with Li Houzhao's character, so he always felt that there must be some unknown secrets in it, which was a kind of intuition that he secretly had.

However, what surprised him the most was not only that, but later he found out that this time Li Ting led 100,000 elite iron cavalry from the Southern Tang Dynasty, which was Li Houzhao's treasure, and it was generally not easy to use.

After all, the cavalry of the Southern Tang Dynasty was very weak, and this was the result of his and Li Ting's hard training, so they would not send this unit to the battlefield unless they had to. And with the help of the Northern Qi this time, the cavalry of the Northern Qi is very strong, so Li Houzhao does not need to use this army at all.

In Ye Yunfeng's impression, Li Houzhao has always been a monarch with a small pattern, so he originally thought that Li Houzhao would only send a small part of the elite troops this time, and then mainly provide grain routes and grain and grass for the Northern Qi, and then the Northern Qi would attack. In this way, even if he loses, he will not suffer too much, and if he wins, he can still take a little sweetness.

But this time Ye Yunfeng guessed wrong, not only did the Southern Tang send all of his elites, but the Northern Qi also sent all his elites, which was obviously a situation of becoming a benevolent person if he didn't succeed.

Unless they are sure of victory, they will send all the elites out in this way, and if they lose, they will be greatly damaged. Ye Yunfeng didn't expect this, he would feel that something was wrong, thinking about every time he went out before, he was actually full of confidence.

And this time, he always had a bad premonition in his heart, but Ye Yunfeng also had a good way to break the enemy. It is the Southern Tang and Northern Qi who transferred their elite troops, then the troops guarding the capital of the two of them must be very weak, at this time, as long as they send troops that have always been strong in combat and make a detour to raid their respective capitals, their front-line troops will definitely return to the city to rescue.

At this time, as long as they set up a large number of ambushes on the way back, and then he led the frontal army to pursue, so that the enemy would be attacked from the front and rear, and the battle would be won.

When Ye Yunfeng convened a meeting of the generals, he said this strategy to break the enemy, and everyone agreed, and Ye Yunfeng also felt that it was indeed easy to win. But the only thing he had doubts about was that if he could think of this, there must be enough places to think of it.

The other party has the main force, isn't it worried that the hometown in the rear will be attacked by a sneak attack, this is the point that Ye Yunfeng is puzzled about. Later, he thought about it, and there was only one possibility, that is, the enemy felt that he was very strong in front of him, and he could drag his 200,000 Zhenxiao army, and did not have the time and energy to sneak attack their respective capitals.

So he decided to ask for reinforcements from the imperial court, and he explained this to Emperor Liu Yishan, and then suggested that the emperor send Li Xu to lead part of his Qingning army to attack the capitals of Southern Tang and Northern Qi, and the rest of the army remained in Bianjing.

In this way, he led 200,000 Zhenxiao troops to fight against the enemy's elite, while Li Xu made a detour to attack from the rear, so that a big thing could be achieved, and he felt that all this should be under control.

After he applied to the imperial court for the transfer of troops, Liu Yishan immediately ordered Li Xu to set off with the whole army, everything was carried out according to Ye Yunfeng's plan, after Ye Yunfeng knew that Li Xu had already led the army to set off.

He led his army to engage the enemy head-on, wanting to attract the enemy's attention so that Li Xu could successfully penetrate into the enemy's rear. But what he didn't expect was that the combat effectiveness of the enemy's front was really strong, and after more than half a month of fierce fighting between the main force of his Zhenxiao army, both sides suffered heavy casualties, Ye Yunfeng's army was reduced from 200,000 to only 80,000, and the enemy army was also killed and wounded more than half, and the two sides temporarily entered a state of truce.

At this time, Ye Yunfeng received a letter from Li Xu, knowing that Li Xu was on the verge of being under the capital of Northern Qi, and the spies also found out that the main force of Northern Qi was preparing to retreat.

At this time, Ye Yunfeng knew that the big thing could be done, so he led the army to pursue the enemy, wanting to form a front and rear attack with Li Xu. However, when Ye Yunfeng was chasing the enemy army, he was led into a valley by the enemy army, and was ambushed by the enemy army in the valley.

Ye Yunfeng's reaction was also shrewd, as soon as he entered the valley, he felt that the situation was wrong, and immediately ordered the army to retreat, but the enemy army had already laid a net above the valley, and even if the retreat was timely, his own army would suffer heavy casualties.

At this time, when Ye Yunfeng led the rest of the army to retreat, he suddenly felt that the general trend had gone, so he thought of the trick of Duan Fengping, the master of the Dragon Yin Pavilion, and after opening it, he was suddenly dumbfounded, as if he couldn't believe what he saw.

At this moment, an army suddenly emerged from his rear, intercepting his retreat, and the two sides fell into a melee again, but because the enemy had too many troops, in the end, the remaining soldiers of the Zhenxiao Army were all annihilated here, and Ye Yunfeng was also killed on the spot.

Before he died, when he saw the commander who led the troops, he said weakly: It turned out to be really you! Then he died of exhaustion, and a generation of victorious generals finally died here......
