Although it is not the same as the Luoluo River in An Lushan, it also represents the strongest combat power of the Yan army, and Shi Chaoyi will never allow them to be lost in vain.

Shi Chaoyi hurriedly went to find Gao Zhi, explained to him the current grim situation, and asked him to break through the Nanfeng Gully and join the Luoluo River. Of course, Gao Yishi couldn't really break the face of this Da Yan prince brother, patted his chest and promised him: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, please rest assured, my thirteen thousand Tongluo soldiers can be used as one for ten, and Nanfenggou is naturally handy." ”

"Brothers, get on the horse, give me enough to do it, and trample the Hexi soldiers into scum for me!"

Xue Jian set up a yoke at the pass, with a strong shield as the front row, the lance pikemen and the Mo knife team as the second row, and the crossbowmen not only suppressed the enemy's arrows, but also put a big stick at their feet to prevent the enemy from rushing into the depth of our formation.

The Tongluo army is all light cavalry, good at raiding and outflanking operations, and it stands to reason that they do not have the ability to carry it hard with heavy infantry. Unless they blindfold the horses with black cloth and rush over them, and use the horses as walls of flesh to be broken. Naturally, they don't have the courage to do so, and they can't be ruthless, they led their troops to fight just for money, and if they folded the war horse into it, they would lose money.

Both ends of the Nanfeng Gully were could, covered with pine forests, and there was no room for roundabouts, and he had no other way but to attack head-on.

At the urging of Shi Chaoyi, Gao Zhi finally launched an attack, and they ordered the cavalry pikemen to be the front team and the horse archers to be the rear team, constantly shooting arrows into the Hexi army camp while running, and the Hexi army also returned fire with crossbows, and both sides were wounded, but no life was harmed. First, because the Hexi army had comprehensive armor, and secondly, the ability of the Tongluo cavalry to dodge arrows on horseback was also super strong. Two horses had been pierced into hedgehogs by crossbow arrows, and they fell to the ground with their noses dripping with blood. The horsemen on the horse were fine, and were even able to escape by jumping off their pedals before the horse fell.

The cavalry spearmen rushed to the front of the Tang army with arrows, and the horses saw the bright and cold spear tip jungle, how dare they run forward, and hurriedly turned back, the spears in the hands of the spearmen just shook a shot in front of the Tang army, and returned to the starting point.

Gao Zhi ordered the offensive to be stopped, and he could see that the Tang army was in good shape, and it was impossible to bargain for anything today.

Shi Chaoyi hurriedly went to him and asked him why he didn't continue to attack, and even his tone became much more intense. Who knew that Gao Zhi didn't urinate on him, the prince of Dayan, coldly stimulated him: "Don't you see that my cavalry has done their best, the enemy is defending in danger, and we are at a disadvantage and can't attack." The prince is pampered and doesn't know how to fight, so let's take a break. ”

These Hu tribal leaders are equivalent to mercenaries, and they usually politely call him the crown prince, but once they contradict their interests, these people will directly turn their faces and deny people. So that Shi Chaoyi could not do anything, he could only fantasize in his mind that after Lao Tzu became the emperor in the future and ruled the world, he would clean up your grassland tribes one by one, and then escort you to Luoyang to line up and cut off your heads.

Gao Zhi said to him again: "The prince doesn't have to worry, we are flexible, they are fixed, we are active, they are passive, we are hunters, they are prey." We were guarding them, and the tigers were napping at times, and as long as they were tired, they would scatter and find the right opportunity to crush them in one fell swoop. ”

Shi Chaoyi listened to his words, and had to set up camp near Nanfenggou, at this time it was more than nine hours before the Tang army seized the pass of the ravine, and the other party sent a large number of soldiers to cut down the trees in the mountain and build a walled wall with stones as a foundation.

On the second day, Gao Zhi once again led the Tongluo cavalry to challenge, but the Hexi army in front of the pass was not in place, and further into the distance of 100 zhang, a temporary wooden city pass stood impressively in front of him.

Gao Zhi was completely dumbfounded, if the Hexi army waited for him yesterday and still had a chance to break the formation, now he has no way to face the city wall fortifications, do you want to let them, the grassland athletes who are good at galloping on horseback, carry ladders to climb the wall? They were hired by Shi Siming to fight and rob, not to play with their lives. If you want to talk about attacking fortifications, why don't you attack the huge Taiyuan City, why do you just run into this narrow ravine.

Shi Chaoyi's face darkened completely, and he complained infinitely in his heart, if Gao Zhi listened to his hard attack on the Hexi Army's formation yesterday, would he still need to look at the wall and sigh today?

He personally came to the camp tent of the high branch and urged him to go out to attack the south wind ditch, but the high branch naturally shirked and did not fight, saying that he wanted to wait for the opportunity.

Shi Chaoyi said angrily: "Since the weight of my crown prince is not enough, then I will ask my father and emperor in Youzhou for his will, and see if his will can please you, the great god." ”

Who knew that Gao Zhi sneered cheekily and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, don't give me all these useless things, who doesn't know that the Tiangao Emperor is far away, and the general will not be affected by the life of the monarch outside, Youzhou is thousands of miles away from Hedong, and when he receives the song sent by the prince, the entire battle of Hedong will be over." At that time, there will only be two results, if we lose, we will lose our armor, you will lose Fan Yang, we will return to the grassland, and we will bear all the losses ourselves, and we will not need Emperor Shi to compensate. If you win, we'll go back with a triumphant song, and your father can't blame me. “

Shi Chaoyi gritted his teeth and said what he had always wanted to say: "When he comes to the world, I must make you look good!" ”

Gao Zhi laughed presumptuously: "Then I will wait until the day when you reign in the world, the crown prince." ”

Shi Chaoyi returned to his big tent angrily, and the deputy lieutenant of the high branch advised from the side: "Why should the leader be angry with him, if he really becomes the emperor in the future and attacks our tribe, wouldn't it be a disaster?" ”

"This guy is just a straw bag if he is not the emperor, and he won't do much when he becomes the emperor, no one is afraid when we follow An Lushan with Luo Bing, and now we can still be afraid of him as the son of a second king? As for the trailing river that was blocked behind the pass, they would naturally fight it desperately when they wanted to come out. ”

……

After Bi Qige was cut off from retreating, he just blindly advanced forward, and for the troops in Nanfenggou, he thought that the high branch would definitely break through desperately, and there was no need to worry about it. But Gao Zhi also thinks so, if the retreat is cut off, he will definitely rush out desperately, and when the time comes, he will help him outside a little bit, and it should be easy to get out of trouble.

In this way, Bi Qige gave up his only chance of survival and advanced towards the depths of Wuxiang County, the deeper he went, the more undulating the mountains and rivers became, and the ravines crisscrossed back and forth. They had to turn the cavalry into a long serpentine formation, spreading through a valley several miles long.

Bi Qige led the vanguard to the foot of the Erlong Mountain Range, and the rear team still stayed in the east ditch. Li Chongbao stood on the top of Erlong Mountain, looking at the enemy cavalry below that was slowly moving like a line.

The adjutant general standing behind Li Chongbao was a little breathless, and asked in a low voice: "General, can you give the order to rush down and attack." ”

"What's the hurry? Since we want to fight, we have to put them all in, how long their ranks are, how big our ambush line must be. The two battalions in front were ordered to follow their vanguard, ready to cast their nets and flank at any moment. ”

Bi Qige rode to the bend of the ravine, looked up and saw the thick vegetation on the mountain, after the breeze blows, the grass and trees shake, which makes him feel a little chill in his heart, this is not an enemy soldier.

He beat his horse and shouted to urge his troops to advance and reach the flatter terrain as soon as possible, for it was too dangerous to drill in this ravine.

Before his horses had turned the ravine, suddenly a huge stone rolled down from the ravine, and the horses let out a convulsive cry, followed by a volley of arrows from the mountain, and the horsemen fell on their horses to take refuge.

Bi Qige waved his long knife and shouted: "Rush out, rush out!" ”

As soon as they rushed out of the valley mouth, a group of Tang troops pushed felt carts to block the front, and the felt carts were covered with thick wooden planks to provide shields to block, and the crossbowmen hid behind the carts and used arrows to shoot the enemy in the gaps.

The valley pass was too narrow and completely blocked by the felt carts and the Tang army, they could only turn back and retreat, but the mountain road was full of their troops, and they could not concentrate their forces, and arrows were constantly thrown downward on the two mountains, and the horsemen fell off their horses one after another.

Li Chongbao stood on the col and looked down, and saw the enemy army in the long ravine in a mess, waving the yellow order flag in his hand. The Modao teams in full gear rushed down from the hill and cut the enemy's team into five or six pieces, while the rest of the team rushed down the mountain with colorful battle flags, and ate the superior forces of the Zaluo River cavalry after being separated and encircled in batches and sections.

The battle lasted from morning to dusk, the Modao team of the Hexi Army formed a formation with long knives to prevent the cavalry in the ravine from converging, and the rest of the jumpers and spears formed a three-person formation, and the Luoluo River under the command of Bi Qige was wiped out in the ravine of Erlong Mountain, and only more than 300 people escaped from the rear.
