The one hundred and twenty-second backing mountain king's bloody battle against Yangping, Cao Fazheng is planning Wudu

The poem says:

Empty and talented, he has never opened his arms in his life.

Where are the birds crying and the flowers falling, and the bamboo dies and the withered phoenix does not come.

The good horse is full of no owner, and the old friendship is mourning.

Jiuquan sighed at the separation of three lights, and sent Wen Xing into the night platform.

But he said that Li Shimin said to the generals: "This Yangping is an important place to go, and it must be taken back, which one can be a pioneer and go to fight Yangping?" Luo Cheng came out and said: "Marshal, the young general is willing to go!" Shimin said: "In this case, you can teach Su Dingfang, Wei Chigong, Shan Xiongxin, Qin Shubao, Cheng Yanjin, and Xu Shichang to go with you, and I will allocate 80,000 troops to you." Luo Cheng said with a smile: "A little old thief of Yang Lin, how much ability does he have?" Since the marshal has allocated so many generals to the junior general, the junior general will never let the old thief survive. Shimin said: "Sure enough, it is the general's great achievement." "Exactly:

Nanpu is sad and farewell, and the west wind is winding in autumn.

As soon as you see the intestines broken, you can go and don't look back.

At that moment, Luo Chengcheng took soldiers and horses, went all the way to Yangping, and ordered him to set up camp and not fight with the thieves easily. When the backer heard that it was Luo Chenglai, he sighed and said: "The loss is the main general of this person, whether it is success or failure, or it is not easy to measure." Na Luo Cheng summoned the six generals and said: "Everyone, this old thief Yang Lin is a cunning old ghost, we always have to be careful when fighting with him. My cousin stayed in the camp to take care of the grain and grass, and the other five generals went with me to fight and see how the old thief was. Shu Bao said: "Obey!" Xu Shiyun and Cheng Biting Jin secretly laughed and shouted: "Order!" The five of them ended their stops and followed Luo Cheng to the front of the pass to scold and fight. Yang Lin said with a smile: "This guy is here to send him to death, and leave him alone, we just don't fight." Luo Cheng saw that Yang Lin refused to fight, so he had to withdraw his troops, and thought of a plan on the way, so he summoned Xu Shiyun and Cheng Biting Jinfen and ordered: "You and the two of you will lead a thousand soldiers to guard the Baisha Ancient Road to serve as Sui soldiers; But I brought up the soldiers, and I came to answer them. The two of them said: "Although the Sui army has few people, they are all people who can fight well, Yang Lin has an army of 30,000, how can General Luo only go to guard the pass with a thousand soldiers?" If the Sui army is so big, why refuse? Luo Cheng said with a smile: "I want to be more, I'm afraid the soldiers will work hard." Cheng Yanjin and Xu Shiyun looked at each other, and they didn't dare to go. Luo Cheng saw it and shouted: "If there is negligence, it is not your sin." Needless to say, you can go quickly. The two of them lamented again: "General Luo, if you want to kill some and two people, you will kill them, so you don't dare to go." Luo Cheng smiled: "How stupid! I will order you to wait now, and you will have your own opinions. I looked up at the astronomy last night, and saw that Bi Xingdian was in the middle of the clouds, and there will be heavy rain in this month; Although the Sui army has 30,000 strong soldiers, it can only defend according to the danger and dare to go deep into the mountains and dangerous places? Therefore, there is no need for more troops, and there will be no harm. I will have the army in the back mountain, live in peace for a month, wait for the Sui army to retreat, and then cover it with a large army: to wait for work, my 80,000 people can all exterminate Yang Lin's 30,000 Sui army. After the two listened, Fang Daxi said goodbye and left. Luo Cheng went out of Xingyang with the army of Tong, sent orders to go down, taught all passes, and prepared dry firewood, forage and fine grain, which were enough for men and horses in January to prevent autumn rain; The army will be given a grace period of one month, and food and clothing will be given first, and they will be served to go on the expedition. But it was said that Yang Lin and Lu Fang led the army together, and Lu Fang said: "Although our army is good at strong battles, in the end there are few people, we still take the initiative to attack and defeat Luo Cheng in one go, otherwise if there is no food, it will be a big deal." Yang Lin said with a smile: "Wang'er, don't enter lightly at this time." The old man watched the astronomy at night and saw that Bi Xing was in the middle of the yin, and there would be heavy rain in this month; If we rush deep into the land, we can always win. If there is the slightest negligence, the people and horses will suffer at that time, and it will be difficult to retreat. And it is advisable to set up a nest in the city to stay in case of rain. Lu Fang said: "The father is smart, the son is dull, he doesn't know astronomy, and he almost broke a big deal." "Before half a month, sure enough, the rain fell heavily and dripping. Outside Yangping City, the water on the flat ground is three feet deep, the weapons are wet, people cannot sleep, and they are unstable day and night. The heavy rain fell for 30 days, the horses had no forage, the dead were numerous, and the sergeants complained endlessly. When it was introduced to Jiangdu, Sui Shizu was very worried and afraid that it would not work. Chengdu and Ying'er jointly said: "Since ancient times, there have been aspirations; Thousands of miles of food, the soldiers are hungry; After Qiao Su, the division is not full. This is called the marcher of the plain road. Moreover, if you go deep into the dangers and obstacles, and dig the road forward, it will be hard work, and you will be able to do it. Today, coupled with the rain, the mountains are steep and slippery, the crowd is forced but not expanded, and the food is far away and difficult to maintain: the implementation of the army's taboo is also. I heard that the king of the mountain and Lu Fangfa had been more than a month, and his line was only half a valley, and he had great achievements in governing the road, and the soldiers were all doing it: it was he who was able to wait for work, and it was the soldier's fear. In the previous generation, King Wu cut down and returned it after going out of the customs; On the recent matter, then the martial arts, the literature and the power, the river but not the help: isn't it the time when the sky knows, through the power changer? May Your Majesty remember the hardships of the water and rain, and rest the soldiers; If there is a provocation the day after tomorrow, use it at the right time. The so-called joy is difficult, and the people forget the way of the dead. Sui Shizu looked at the table and was hesitating, Yang Jiqing and Yang Qi, the king of Hades, also went up to advise. Sui Shizu immediately issued an edict and sent the edict to the backers Yang Lin and Lu Fang to abandon Yangping and immediately retreat to Wudu.

However, it was said that Yang Lin and Lu Fang discussed: "Today, it has been cloudy for 30 days, the army has no fighting spirit, and each has the intention of returning, how to prohibit it?" Lu Fang said: "It's better to go back." Yang Lin said: "I don't want to, if Luo Cheng is chased by a thief, how can he retreat?" Lu Fang said: "What my father said is that it is better to ambush the two armies before returning to the army." "In the middle of the discussion, the mission came. The two then took the front team of the army as the rear team, and the back team as the front team, and slowly retreated.

Besides, Luo Cheng calculated that the autumn rain in January would be exhausted, and the sky had not yet cleared, so he raised an army to be stationed in Chenggu, and ordered the Sect army to be stationed in Chipo. Luo Chengsheng called the generals and said: "I expect that the design must go, and Yang Guang's faint monarch will issue an edict to take Yang Lin and Lu Fang's soldiers back." This is a godsend, if you don't chase and kill the two horsemen, when will you wait? "Suddenly, Xu Shiyun and Cheng Biting Jin reported that the Sui army had returned. When Luo Cheng heard the news, he ordered someone to come and pass it on to Cheng Yanjin and Xu Shiyun: "You immediately pursue the Sui army, don't let go of the old thief Yang Lin, I will immediately lead the main force to follow up." "Exactly:

The falling south crown is self-knotting, and the truss poplar lies up and shadows vertically and horizontally.

Sitting on the white stone to know what the world is, the dream of the blue light is broken and asking a few more.

The country is ruined, the family is dead, the tears are dark, and the old man is light.

The gains and losses of sorghum are all illusory, and the yuan was not born fifty years ago.

After saying this, Cheng Biting Jin, Xu Shiyun and others chased and killed Yang Lin, and Lu Fangdian had already seen the two of them, and laughed: "Cheng Biting Jin, Xu Shixian, your death time has arrived!" The second general laughed and said, "Little thief Lu Fang, where are you going?" "The flying horse stepped forward, fought the Lu side in a group, there were twenty rounds of battle, and the Lu side pretended to be defeated? If it is an ordinary fight, just these two people, ten more will not be enough for Lu Fang to ravage. It's just that the ambush of the king of the backer is important, so these two are released. Cheng Yanjin saw that Lu Fang was defeated, so he went to chase and kill Xu Shixian. Walking into the valley, Yang Lin had already ordered the rolling stones to be laid, and the two of them were shocked: "It's hateful that Luo Cheng'er is ignorant and caused us to fall into Yang Lin's ambush!" Yang Lin said: "You two are not the opponents of this king, it's still too late to surrender at this moment!" Cheng Yanjin shouted: "Old horseman, if you have any tricks, just use them!" Your Grandpa Cheng is not afraid! Yang Lin was furious when he heard this, and ordered Lu Fang to shoot rockets in all directions. The thief army couldn't resist, with more than 10,000 dead and wounded, and was in shock, when he suddenly heard a person shouting: "Old thief Yang Lin, I'm here!" Yang Lin hurriedly looked, and it was Luo Cheng who led the army to kill him. Yang Lin and Lu Fang were shocked: "Why is Luo Cheng here? Luo Chengdao: "Just because you two are treacherous, the master is still not at ease, so he came in person, what do you two have to say now?" Yang Lin said: "Luo Cheng, you are happy too early, now that our army occupies the mountain, where is your way to live?" "Ordered to shoot the feather arrows in all directions, the thief army was killed and wounded, in the end there were many people, and after a while, the Sui army ran out of weapons, so they had to go down the mountain to fight. After the two confrontations, Luo Cheng's side couldn't resist it, so he had to retreat. Suddenly, a cannon rang out, and it turned out that Li Shimin was afraid that Luo Cheng would not be able to resist Yang Lin, so he sent Zhang Shigui's father and son-in-law to help in the war. At present, there are 100,000 troops in the army, surrounding Yang Lin and Lu Fang with tens of thousands of horses in the core. Yang Lin said: "My son, today our father and son are going to donate their bodies for the country=." Lu Fangdao: "Marshal Xiang has passed away, what are we afraid of?" Yang Lin said: "This is reasonable! "Command the sergeants to maintain formation and fight the thieves. Luo Cheng shouted: "Old thief Yang Lin, come and die!" "Urge the little white dragon in the west, receive the Five Tiger Soul Breaking Spear, and take Yang Lin directly. Lu Fang shouted: "Bah! Luo Cheng thief, your grandfather Lu Fang is here! Cheng Biting Jin said: "What are you, just eat the master's axe!" "The two horses intersected, only one round, and Cheng was so shocked that he was soft. Xu Shiyun saw it, carried two swords in his hand, and caught up with the fight. Amused for three or five rounds, the two couldn't resist. When Shan Xiongxin saw it, he shouted: "Lu Fang, grandpa is here to meet you!" "Three fights in one, fifteen rounds, is not a match for the Lu side at all. Li Yuanji said with a smile: "Little Lu Fang, how capable do you have?" "Carrying a horse lance, also come to fight Lu Fang. No matter what Lu Fang's marksmanship is at stake, the four are not opponents. When Wei Chi saw it, he also stepped forward to fight, but he could only trap Lu Fang, and he couldn't win at all. When Su Dingfang saw it, he shouted: "Then Lu Fangxiu is going to be rampant, do you know Su Dingfang, the general of King Dou?" Everyone hurriedly looked, and there was a good Su Dingfang:

He is eight feet one inch tall, his face is like jade powder, his long beard is fluttering, his bearing is extraordinary, and his appearance is dignified. Wearing a Zhugong Beique helmet, wearing a gold tortoiseshell armor, a coral bead cloud belt around his waist, a robe covered with three lights, and a Tiangong Haizang boot, Robin sat down with a thousand miles of stick teeth, and an eighty-one pound of snow feather pear spear in his palm.

At that moment, Su Dingfang joined the battle group, and only then did he defeat Lu Fang, and after 60 rounds of fighting, Lu Fang could not be guarded, and was stabbed in the thigh by Su Dingfang, fell off the horse, and died of anger. When Yang Lin saw it, he was furious in his heart, and when Luo Cheng saw it, he stepped forward on a flying horse and fought Yang Lin. After twenty rounds, Yang Lin couldn't resist and was stabbed to death by Luo Cheng. Wretched:

What is the desire for the destruction of the country and the family? There is my division at the head of Xizi Lake.

The sun and the moon are hung in the tomb, and half of the ancestral hall of the Yue family is in the Qiankun.

He was ashamed to divide his bare hands into three seats, and dared to borrow a branch for Danxin.

He is a car in the east of Zhejiang Road, and the angry waves must belong to the Ouyi.

Na Luo Cheng stabbed Yang Lin to death, jumped off the horse, drew his sword and took the head. The thief army lost more than 100,000 and barely captured Yangping. Unexpectedly, Cao Fazheng used Yangping as bait to consume the morale of the thief army. Tens of thousands of thieves were destined to die, but poor Lao Wang also fought to the death, but instead pulled up 100,000 thieves. Cao Fazheng was grief-stricken and reported to Sui Shizu. Shizu burst into tears. Surveying the Yanglin Palace, the property is scarce, and the people are not prosperous, which is:

Farewell to the rest of the peace, then meet desolate everything, unbearable to look back, the country is ruined, the family is infinitely hateful, forbidden to suffer in this life, and add to the sorrow, the bottom of the eyes and hearts are like yesterday, and the heart often works hand in hand night and night. A chamber of blood, for the gentleman's section.

The tear-stained material is cloudy, leaning on the cold placket to read carefully, and the residual lamp is like a bean. Leave this rest to be the bottom line, and make the old people sloppy. Shame on the head as before. It is not easy to trek the mountains and rivers, and I wish the lonely soul before and after the ambulance. The intestines are broken, and it is difficult to sing.

Besides, Li Shimin occupied Yangping, and asked left and right: "Who is the general of Wudu?" Luo Chengdao: "The current guard Sun Jingkong!" Li Shimin laughed and said: "A brave and unscrupulous horseman, Ben Shuai looks at Cai Cao Fa is just old and confused!" "Ordered the army to travel day and night, come to Wudu, set up camp, and plan a plan. When Sun Jingkong heard that Li Shimin was coming, he immediately ordered 10,000 soldiers, took advantage of the night, raided Li Shimin's rear camp, and immediately set fire. Li Shimin heard the sound of shouting and killing in his sleep, and he was shocked, and when he went out to see, Qin Shubao had already caught him. Li Shimin asked, "What is the reason?" Qin Shubao said: "The Sui army attacked the rear camp and burned our army's grain and grass, and now our army is in chaos, and things are not good." Li Shimin was shocked: "Who is the leader?" Qin Shubao said: "One person in the firelight is holding a long stick, it must be Sun Jingkong." Li Shimin said angrily: "Ben Shuai underestimated this puppet, and quickly ordered Luo Cheng to resist." Qin Shubao said: "Luo Cheng has already gone, but Sun Jingkong is strong in martial arts, and Luo Cheng is not an opponent." Li Shimin was shocked when he heard this, and said: "After all, he has few people, go and attack Wudu, if he has a home, it will be difficult for him to return!" Before the words fell, Cheng Yanjin rushed over and said, "His Royal Highness the King of Qin, Sun Jingkong burned most of our army's grain and grass, and he has already withdrawn!" When Li Shimin heard this, he was furious, but he was helpless. Sun Jingkong returned to the city and said, "According to the marshal's plan, set up an ambush and prepare to fight the thief army." "In one night alone, the thief army lost another 50,000 horses, and there was not enough food and grass. Li Shimin had no choice but to withdraw his troops. Ignoring the report that Sun Jingkong was fighting, Li Shimin said: "This is strange, there are few others, and there are many of us, how can he dare to fight?" Luo Chengdao: "This guy has courage and no strategy, I must think that we have no capable people, marshal, if you give me 100,000 troops, I will definitely destroy Sun Jingkong." Li Shimin said with a smile: "This is very good, just ask General Luo to go!" ”

At that moment, Luo Cheng received the order and waved his army to fight. Sun Jingkong saw it and retreated without a fight. Luo Cheng was overjoyed, and led the troops to chase after him. After walking for more than 30 miles, suddenly a shout came from behind, and a Biao army flashed out of the woods, headed by the general, and shouted: "Ah! The thief will lead his troops there! Luo Cheng looked back at it, it was Sun Jingkong. Luo Cheng was furious and returned to the horse to fight. No, Sun Jingkong deceived and left. Luo Cheng chased for more than 30 miles, looked back on the horse, and there were no ambushes, and he rode his horse forward to chase. Fang turned the hillside, suddenly shouted loudly, and a Biao army flashed out, headed by the general, Naisun Jingkong, and shouted: "Ah! Luo Chengxiu hurried! I'm here! Your grandpa is back! Luo Cheng was furious when he heard this, so he clapped his horse. Less than ten times, Sun Jing left with an empty horse. Luo Cheng then chased after him. rushed to a dense forest, Luo Cheng was suspicious in the end, so people went around to sentry, and there was no ambush; So I was relieved and hurried. I didn't want Sun Jingkong to copy it in front. Luo Cheng fought with Sun Jingkong for more than ten years, and Sun Jingkong was defeated again. Luo Cheng chased after him angrily, and was copied in front by Deputy General Sun Jingkong and intercepted the way. Luo Cheng was furious, patted the horses and clashed, the battle was ten, the Sui army abandoned all the clothes and armor and other things, stuffed the road, and the thieves all dismounted to fight. Sun Jingkong was overjoyed, and the two lieutenants took turns to fight, Luo Cheng was furious and chased after him bravely. Looking at the evening, when he rushed to the Mumen crossing, Sun Jingkong turned back his horse and scolded loudly: "Luo Cheng is a traitor!" I don't refuse you, you just want to come, and I will fight you to the death today! When Luo Cheng heard this, he was very angry, and he rushed to Sun Jingkong. Sun Jingkong waved his stick to greet him. After the battle, Sun Jingkong was defeated, abandoned his armor and helmet, and led the defeated soldiers to walk in the wooden doorway. Luo Cheng was able to kill, and when he saw Sun Jingkong defeated and fled, he suddenly came. At this time, the sky was dark, a cannon rang out, the mountain was on fire, and the big stones were rolling down, blocking the way. Luo Cheng saw it and exclaimed: "It's not good! I've got it covered! "When I hurried back to the horse, the back was already stuffed with wood and stones, and there was only a clearing in the middle, and there were cliffs on both sides, and there was no way to advance or retreat. Suddenly, there was a bang, and two 10,000 crossbows were fired in unison, killing Luo Cheng and more than 100 generals in the wooden doorway. Later generations have a poem that says:

The crossbows flew together with 10,000 stars, and the male soldiers were shot on the wooden doorway.

So far, the Sword Pavilion has been passengered, and it is still said that the old name of the military division is still said.

But it was said that Luo Cheng was dead, and then the thieves chased after him, and when he saw that the road was blocked, he knew that Luo Cheng was in a plan. The army recoiled back and retreated. Suddenly, I heard a shout from the top of the mountain: "Shocked, Sun Jingkong is here!" The army looked up and saw Sun Jingkong standing in the firelight, pointing to the army and saying: "I hunted today, I wanted to shoot a horse, but I hit a deer by mistake." Go every one in peace; Overlay Li Shimin's house: Sooner or later, it will be captured by me. When the thief army returned to see Li Shimin, he had to tell the past in detail. Li Shimin was sad, and looked up to the sky and sighed: "Luo Chengluo died openly, and this handsome man is also wrong!" "Counting the coalition forces, there are still 1.1 million, so I can be slightly relieved. It's ridiculous that Luo Cheng is a normal person, but now Luo Song doesn't come to mourn, and the corpse is dead in the wooden doorway, and no one takes care of it. Sun Jingkong returned to Wudu City, almost had soldiers and horses, and there were 26,000 people, so he ordered to guard according to the danger, wait for Cao Fazheng's order, and then make plans. Precisely:

If you can't meet people, you don't know spring for a long time.

Since the collapse of the country and the collapse of the family, Longshang has only added a new grass.

Hugh said that there is a lot of hatred in the world, and the good guests live here.

There are thousands of music in the hall, competing for a song of Yangchun.

The valley is poor and the flowers are like concubines, indulging in fragrant and glamorous vomiting for no reason.

The amorous son can visit each other, and he should be relieved of the wind and borrowed the spring temporarily.

The kindness is not enough, and several sleeping flowers have not bloomed.

But he envied a pair of golden arms, and he had to come out of the future with the world.

Cao Fazheng heard that Sun Jingkong had won a big victory, and he had confidence in his heart, so he led Xiao Xuan, Yu Jin, Lu Longyi, Shi Siwen, and Gaizhuang to Wudu, leaving only the emperor Yang Zhengdao to guard Xuchang City, I was afraid that His Royal Highness would be a little damaged, and I was sorry for the entrustment of Emperor Zuming of the Sui Dynasty. When Li Shimin heard that Cao Fazheng had come to the front line in person, he ordered five Dazhai to follow the left, right, center, front, and rear; From the sloping valley to the Jiange Road, there are fourteen big villages in a row, and the military horses are divided, thinking that they will be planned for a long time. Daily patrols. Ignoring the report that Qin Shubao and Cheng Biting Jin led the soldiers of Longxi, they were located in Xiazhai in the northern plains. Li Shimin said to the generals: "The Sui army camped in the Northern Plains, fearing that the commander would take this road and block the Longdao. Ben Shuai is attacking the northern plains in vain, but he secretly takes Weibin. "The plan has been calculated, and they are ready to go. On that side, Cao Fazheng asked people to build more than 100 rafts, load straw handles, and select 5,000 familiar sailors to drive them. The generals said: "Rank, this commander plans to only attack the Northern Plains at night, and Li Shimin will lead troops to rescue." If he is defeated, the commander will cross the rear army first to the shore, and then put the front army in the raft. Hugh had to go ashore and take the pontoon bridge down the river and set it on fire to attack it. The marshal led an army to take the gate of the front camp. If you get to the south of Weishui, it will not be difficult to advance the army. "The generals did as they were told. A patrol army had already reported to Li Shimin. Li Shimin called the generals to discuss: "Everyone, Cao Fa is such a facility, and there is a plan: he took the name of Beiyuan and burned the pontoon bridge along the river. That is, the herald and Zuo Xiong, Duan Da, Qin Shubao, Xu Shixian, Cheng Yanjin, and Shan Xiong believed: "If you can hear Beiyuan's shout, you will raise troops in the south mountains of Weishui, and wait for the Sui army to arrive and attack it." He also ordered Wei Chi Gong and Wang Long to lead 5,000 crossbowmen to lie on the north bank of the Weishui pontoon bridge, and ordered: "If the Sui army comes down the river on a raft, you can shoot it in a volley, and you can order to approach the bridge." He also ordered Song Jingang and Liu Heimin to say: "Cao Fa is coming to Beiyuan to secretly cross Weishui, and the newly established camp of Ru is not many, so it can be buried halfway." If the Sui army crosses the water in the afternoon, it will come to attack you at dusk. If you are defeated and leave, the Sui army will chase after you. Thou shalt shoot them with bows and crossbows. Ben Shuai can go hand in hand with land and water. If the Sui army is so big, it only depends on the command of the commander and hits it. "The orders were issued everywhere, and they were ordered, and the second generals, Zhang Shigui and Xue Wanche, were ordered to lead troops to rescue the front battalion. Li Shimin led an army to save the northern plains.

However, it was said that Cao Fazheng ordered Sun Jingkong and Gaizhuang to lead troops across Weishui and attack Beiyuan; ordered Yujin and Lu Longyi to lead the raft soldiers to burn the pontoon bridge; Ling Shi Siwen led 5,000 soldiers and horses as the front team, Xiao Xuan led 5,000 soldiers and horses as the squadron, and he led 5,000 soldiers and horses as the rear team: the soldiers were divided into three ways to attack the Weishui dry camp. At noon that day, the soldiers and horses of the Sui army left Dazhai and crossed the Weishui River, lined up in formation, and walked slowly. However, it was said that Sun Jingkong and Gaizhuang were close to the northern plains, and the sky was dark. When Zuo Xiong saw this, he abandoned the camp and left. Sun Jingkong knew that he was prepared, and when he hurriedly retreated from the army, he shouted loudly from all around: Li Shimin on the left, Qin Shubao on the right, and the soldiers from both roads came to kill. Sun Jingkong and Gai Zhuang fought their way out, most of the Sui army fell into the water, and the rest of the people had no way to escape. Fortunately, Yu Jin's soldiers came to kill and saved the defeated soldiers from crossing the shore and refused.

Yu Jin divided half of his troops to support the raft and burn the pontoon bridge along the river, but was stopped by Wei Chigong and Wang Long with arrows on the shore. The sergeant was hit by an arrow and fell into the water and died. The remnants of the army jumped into the water and fled for their lives, and the raft was taken away by the thieves. At this time, Lu Longyi didn't know that Beiyuan was defeated, and went straight to the thief camp. Lu Long said left and right: "Now the military horses are attacking the Northern Plains, and the victory or defeat is unknown. Weinan Village, now in front of you, how can you not see a thief? Could it be that Li Shimin knows about it, so he should prepare first? I'll wait and see the pontoon bridge catch fire before we can march in. Hurriedly reined in the military horse, and suddenly rode a horse behind him to report, saying: "Marshal Cao taught the military horse to hurry back." The North Plains soldiers and the pontoon soldiers were all lost. Lu Longyi was shocked when he heard this, and when he hurriedly retreated, he was copied behind by the thieves. Lu Longyi was helpless, and reluctantly led troops to meet each other, and the two armies fought a melee. Lu Longyi and the two fought hard, and most of the Sui army was wounded. Cao Fazheng had no choice but to return to Dazhai to collect the defeated soldiers, and about 10,000 people were broken, and he was depressed. Suddenly, the whole Jiang came to see Cao Fazheng. Cao Fazheng is invited. After the whole ceremony, Cao Fa said: "Ben Shuai has a book, and he wants to bother the prince to go to His Majesty the Emperor to deliver it, I don't know if I am willing to go?" Lai said with a smile: "The order of the generalissimo, how dare you refuse?" "Cao Fazheng immediately repaired the book and paid it to tidy up. Come to Jiangdu with the book, enter the Sui Shizu Ming Emperor, and present the book of Cao Fazheng. The ancestor dismantled it, and the book said: "The Sui family is unfortunate, Wang Gang is out of discipline, and many thieves are usurping and rebelling, and they are spreading to the present." The ministers are entrusted by His Majesty the Emperor, and dare not do their best to be loyal: now the soldiers have met in Qishan, and the madmen will die in Weishui. It is only hateful that the thief army is rude, and it has just been defeated, and there is suspense, please send the general Nangong Wen Hao to come to the right thing. But the book is not exhaustive, and all the saints hear! After the ancestor finished reading it, he was overjoyed in his heart, and he said that he had come to the whole way: "I have wanted to raise troops for a long time, but I have not been able to be legal." Now that there is a book, I will enter the nest gate and take the thief army in the new city; then ordered Lu Biao, Zhao Jing and other generals to garrison troops in Jiangxia and take Xiangyang; Hong Lancheng, Yang Jiqing and others sent troops to Guangling to take Huaiyang and other places: the three marched together, a total of 300,000, and Kerixing Division. Lai Wenyan said: "If this is the case, the Central Plains will not collapse itself!" It's just that Your Majesty is the Venerable of All Vehicles, and there is no need to move, and the minister is willing to replace His Majesty and lead the army to fight. Sui Shizu was overjoyed and ordered to set up wine and entertainment. During the banquet, Sui Shizu asked: "In front of the Fazheng army, who should be the first to break the enemy?" Lai Wenyan said: "Sun Jingkong is the leader. Sui Shizu smiled: "This person is more than brave." And the heart is not right. If one day he leads the army to fight alone, he is afraid that he will be conceited and underestimate the enemy, and he will be defeated after drinking. "Your Majesty's words are very appropriate!" When the minister returns now, he should tell Marshal Cao with this statement. Then he bid farewell to Sui Shizu, returned to Wudu, saw Cao Fazheng, and said that Lord Wu raised 300,000 soldiers, and the soldiers marched in three ways. Cao Fazheng asked again: "Does Your Majesty have anything else to say?" "Let's talk about Sun Jingkong's words. Cao Fazheng sighed: "Your Majesty is really a wise lord! Ben Shuai didn't know that this person was young and frivolous. In order to cherish its bravery, it is used as an ear. If one day I am gone, I am afraid that I will have to find someone to restrain him, and I will tell you today, but His Majesty or General Tianbao are famous, and he is afraid. "Fortunately, the marshal has already been in place." Cao Fazheng smiled and said, "I have my own law." He said goodbye to Cao Fazheng and returned to Yangzhou to prepare.

Cao Fazheng was discussing with the generals to march forward, and suddenly reported that some thieves would surrender in the future. Cao Fazheng called in to ask and replied: "A certain is Zuo Xiongye, a general of the Tang Kingdom." Recently, he led the same people with the general Cheng Yanjin, and listened to Li Shimin's call, but Li Shimin was biased for personal gain, and Cheng Yanjin was a former general, and regarded Zuo Xiong as a mustard, so he was uneven and came to surrender to the marshal. May it be included. Before he could say anything, he reported that Cheng bit Jin and led troops outside the village, and fought with Zuoxiong. Cao Fazheng asked: "Zuo Xiong, how is this person's martial arts better than yours?" Zuo Xiong said: "A certain should be cut immediately." Cao Fazheng said: "If you kill Cheng first and bite the gold, I have no doubt." Zuo Xiong happily got on his horse and went out of the camp to confront Na Cheng's gold. Cao Fazheng personally went out of the camp to see it. I saw Cheng biting Jin's hand and gossiping Xuanhua axe, and scolded: "The anti-thief thief my war horse is here, but you can return me early!" "Words, take Zuo Xiong directly. Zuo Xiong patted the horse and danced a pair of board axes to meet each other, only one together, and cut the gold under the horse. The Don troops fled separately. Zuo Xiong raised the head and entered the camp. Cao Fazheng returned to the tent and sat down, called Zuo Xiong to come, was furious, and shouted: "Push out and cut it!" Zuo Xiong shouted: "Marshal, the young general is not guilty!" Cao Fazheng said: "Ben Shuai used to know Cheng and bite gold; The one you cut today is not Cheng biting gold. An dares to bully this handsome! Zuo Xiong was shocked when he heard this, and said: "This is Cheng Ming, a servant of the Golden Family. Cao Fazheng said with a smile: "Li Shimin ordered Ru Lai to surrender and take trouble in the middle, how can he hide that Ben Shuai has come!" If you don't tell the truth, Ben Shuai will definitely kill you today! Zuo Xiong had to sue that it was actually a fraudulent surrender, and he cried and begged to avoid death. Cao Fazheng said: "If you want to survive, you can repair a book, teach Li Shimin to rob the camp from himself, and Ben Shuai will spare your life." If you catch Li Shimin, it will be your work, and it should be reused. Zuo Xiong had to write a book and present it to Cao Fazheng. Cao Fa ordered Zuo Xiong to be put under supervision. Sun Jingkong asked, "How did the marshal know that this person had surrendered?" Cao Fazheng said: "Li Shimin does not use people lightly. If this guy is a former general, he will be strong in martial arts; Now as soon as he and Zuo Xiong are together, they will be killed by Zuo Xiong, and it will not be Cheng Biting Jinye. So I know it's a deception. "Everyone bowed down.

Cao Fazheng chose another sergeant with a tongue, and ordered this and so in his ear. The sergeant received the order and came to Tangzhai with a book to ask to see Li Shimin. Li Shimin called in, opened the book and finished reading, and asked, "Who are you?" The sergeant replied: "A certain is a native of the Central Plains, living in Shuzhong, Zuo Xiong and a certain is a fellow villager." Today, Cao Fazheng is used as a pioneer because of Zuo Xiong's meritorious service. Zuo Xiong Te Tuo came to offer a book, about tomorrow evening, with the fire as the number, hoping that the beggar governor would come to rob the village with all the troops, and Zuo Xiong should respond. Li Shimin questioned repeatedly, and then carefully examined the book, and it turned out to be true; He immediately ordered the sergeant to be given food and drink, and instructed: "On the second watch of this day, I will rob the village by myself." If great things are accomplished, you will be reused. The sergeant said goodbye and returned to the village to inform Cao Fazheng. Cao Fa is ordering Gai Zhuang to fight with a sword and step gang, and the prayer has been completed, calling Sun Jingkong and Gai Zhuang to order this and so; He also called Lu Longyi and Shi Siwen to order so and so; He also called Xiao Xuan to order this and so. Cao Fazheng led dozens of people, sat on the high mountain, and commanded the army.

However, it was said that Li Shimin saw Zuo Xiong's book, so he wanted to lead his generals to raise soldiers to rob Sui Village. Zhang Zhigui's eldest son, Zhang Zhilong, admonished: "Why did His Royal Highness King Qin enter the important land according to a piece of paper? If there is negligence, what can I do? It's better to order the don't go first, Your Highness will respond later, but also. Li Shimin obeyed it, so he ordered Cheng to bite Jin to lead 50,000 soldiers to rob Sui Village, and Li Shimin led troops to respond.

It is the beginning of the night, the wind is clear and the moon is clear; At the time of the second watch, suddenly the clouds were combined, and the black air was in the air, and the opposite side was missing. Li Shimin was overjoyed and said: "Angel, I have succeeded!" So everyone was in charge, and the horses were all mouthful, and they drove forward. Cheng Biting Jin took the lead and led 50,000 soldiers directly into the Sui village, but no one was seen. Cheng bit Jin knew the plan and hurriedly called for retreat. Qi Ming with four torches, and the shouts shook the ground: Lu Longyi and Shi Siwen on the left, Sun Jingkong and Gaizhuang on the right, and the soldiers from both roads came. Cheng bites Jin to the death, and many breakthroughs are made, but his sergeants can't get out. Behind him, Li Shimin saw that the Sui Village was in flames, shouting endlessly, and he didn't know the victory or defeat of his subordinates, so he only cared about urging the troops to respond, hoping to kill in the firelight. Suddenly, a shout rang out, the drums and horns were noisy, and the artillery shook the ground: Xiao Xuan on the left, Cao Fazheng on the right, and two people and horses came out. The thieves were defeated, wounded and scattered. At this time, the 50,000 soldiers led by Cheng Biting Jin were all surrounded by Sui soldiers, and the arrows were like flying locusts. Wei Chigong almost died in the chaos. Li Shimin led the defeated soldiers into the village.

After the third watch, the sky was clear. Cao Fa is collecting his army on the top of the mountain. It turned out that the clouds were dark during the second watch, and it was the method of Dunjia used by Gaizhuang; After the army was collected, the sky was clear, and Naigai Zhuang drove Liuding Liujia to sweep away the floating clouds.

At that moment, Cao Fazheng returned to the village victoriously, ordered Zuo Xiong to be beheaded, and then discussed the strategy of Weinan. Every day, the soldiers fight, and the thieves only do not come out to greet them. Cao Fazheng took a small car to the front of Lotus Mountain, Weishui, and looked at the geography. Suddenly, when I arrived at the mouth of a valley, I saw that it was shaped like a gourd, and it could accommodate more than 1,000 people; The two mountains are one valley, which can accommodate four or five hundred people; Surrounded by two mountains behind it, only one person can ride. Cao Fazheng read it again, was overjoyed, and asked the guide: "What is the name of this place?" The man replied, "This is the name of the Upper Valley, and it is also called the Gourd Valley." Cao Fa was busy returning to the tent, summoned Lu Longyi and Shi Siwen, and gave them a secret plan. Ordered to gather more than 1,000 people with military craftsmen, enter the gourd valley, imitate the drawings circulated by the people, and make the wooden oxen and flowing horses of Zhuge Kongming in the past, thinking that they are applied; He also ordered Xiao Xuan to lead 500 soldiers to defend the valley pass. Cao Fazheng instructed Xiao Xuan: "Craftsmen are not allowed to be released; Outsiders are not allowed to put it in. Ben Shuai also looks at himself from time to time. The only way to catch Li Shimin is here. Don't leak messages. Xiao Xuan heard that he was ordered to go. Lu Longyi and the other two supervised the craftsmanship in the valley and made it according to the law. Cao Fazheng and Gai Zhuang exchanged daily research instructions.

Suddenly, the general Sun Jingkong said: "Marshal, that is, the grain and rice are all in the Sword Pavilion today, and the people and cattle and horses are inconvenient to transport, so what can I do?" Cao Fazheng said with a smile: "Ben Shuai has been planning for a long time. The former accumulated timber, and the big wood bought by Xichuan, according to the drawings handed down by the folk, taught people to make the wooden oxen and flowing horses of Zhuge Wuhou in those years, and carried grain and rice, which was very convenient. You also know that cattle and horses do not have water and food, and they can be transported day and night. Everyone was shocked: "From ancient times to the present, except for Zhuge Wuhou, I have not heard of any wooden cattle and horses. It's just that the drawings have been destroyed back then, and I don't know what the marshal has to do to make this strange thing? Cao Fazheng said: "This handsome has been made in accordance with the law, but it is not yet complete. Ben Shuai will first make a wooden ox and a flowing horse, the size is square and round, the length is wide and narrow, and the writing is clear, and you will regard it. Or maybe you know a thing or two. The people rejoiced. Cao Fazheng immediately wrote a piece of paper and put it to the public to watch. The crowd will look around. The law cloud of making wooden oxen: "square belly bent head, one foot and four legs; The head is in the collar, and the tongue is in the belly. Carry more and travel less: dozens of miles for solo travelers, and twenty miles for group walkers. The bend is the head of the ox, the double is the foot of the ox, the horizontal one is the cow collar, the turn is the cow foot, the covered one is the back of the cow, the square one is the belly of the cow, the hanging one is the cow tongue, the curved one is the rib, the carved one is the cow tooth, the standing one is the horn, the thin one is the martingale, and the photographer is the cow sheath shaft. The ox is on its back, the person walks six feet, and the ox walks four steps. Each ox carries a month's worth of grain for ten people, and the people do not work much, and the oxen do not eat. "The law cloud of the flowing horse:" The rib length is three feet five inches, the width is three inches, and the thickness is two inches and two minutes: the left and right are the same. The front axle hole is divided into four inches and two inches in diameter. The front foot hole is divided into two inches, and the front axle hole is four inches and five inches, and the width is one inch. The front bar hole goes to the front foot hole to divide the ink into two inches and seven minutes, the hole is two inches long and one inch wide. The rear axle hole is divided into one foot and five minutes by the front bar, and the size is the same as the front. The rear foot hole is divided into ink and the rear axle hole is three inches and five minutes, and the size is the same as the front. The rear bar hole goes to the rear foot hole to divide the ink two inches and seven minutes, and the rear load gram goes to the rear bar hole to divide the ink four inches and five points. The front bar is one foot eight inches long, two inches wide, and one inch and five minutes thick. Rear bumper with etc. Two square bags, eight minutes thick, two feet seven inches long, one foot six inches five minutes high, and one foot six inches wide: each piece is subject to two meters and three buckets. From the upper bar hole to the ribs seven inches: the same before and after. The upper bar hole goes to the lower bar hole and divides the ink into one foot and three inches, the hole is one inch and five minutes long, and the width is seven points: eight holes are the same. The front and back feet are two inches wide and one inch and five minutes thick. The shape is like an elephant, the length of the ego is four inches, and the diameter is four inches and three points. The three-legged bar in the aperture is two feet one inch long, one inch and five minutes wide, and one inch and four minutes thick, with the bar lug. All the generals looked at it and bowed down and said: "This thing has not been made and circulated for hundreds of years, but the marshal can find a way, it is really a god!" ”

After a few days, the wooden oxen and horses were all built, as if they were alive; Up and down the mountain, each doing his best. When all the troops saw this, they were all delighted. Cao Fazheng ordered Lu Longyi and Shi Siwen to lead 5,000 soldiers to drive wooden oxen and flowing horses from Jiange to Wudu Dazhai to carry grain and grass back and forth for the Sui army. Later generations have poems to praise and say:

The sword pass is steep and drives the horses, and the slope valley is rugged and drives the wooden oxen.

Zhuge practiced this method back then, and the peak of Qishan was worried.

However, it was said that Li Shimin was depressed, and suddenly whistled and said: "The Sui soldiers used the lost wooden oxen and flowing horses to transport grain and grass. People don't work hard, and cattle and horses don't eat. Li Shimin was shocked: "The handsome man insists on not coming out, and he can't get help with grain and grass for him, and he wants to kill himself." Now Cao Fa is using this method, and it will be a long-term plan, and he will not think of retreating. What can I do? Urgently summoned Cheng Biting Jin and Wei Chigong and instructed: "You two each lead 500 troops and copy them from the slope valley path; When the Sui army drove the wooden oxen and horses, let him pass through, and don't kill them all together; Don't grab more, just grab three or five horses and go back. ”

According to the order, the two led 500 troops each, pretending to be Sui troops, stealing the path at night, lying in the valley, and seeing Lu Longyi and Shi Siwen leading troops to drive wooden oxen and horses. After the end of the time, both sides clamored to kill. The Sui army was caught off guard and abandoned a few horses, but Wei Chigong and Cheng Yanjin were overjoyed and hurriedly drove back to the village. Li Shimin saw it, and sure enough, he was overjoyed: "Zhuge Liang used this method back then, and Cao Fazheng is like this today, wouldn't Ben Shuai use this old technology!" So he ordered more than 200 craftsmen to open one in front of him, and ordered them to make wooden oxen and horses according to their size, length, thickness and thinness. In less than half a month, more than 2,000 were created, and the general laws created by Cao Fazheng could also run. Then he ordered Xue Wanche, the general of Zhenyuan, to lead 10,000 troops to drive wooden oxen and flowing horses to Longxi to carry grain and grass, and there were endless exchanges. The generals of the coalition battalion were all happy.

However, it was said that Lu Longyi and Shi Siwen returned to see Cao Fazheng and said that the thieves had robbed five or six wooden oxen and horses. Cao Fazheng laughed and said, "Ben Shuai is asking him to snatch it." I only spent a few wooden oxen and horses, but I soon received a lot of funding from the army. The generals asked, "How does the marshal know this?" Cao Fazheng said: "When Li Shimin saw the wooden ox and the flowing horse, he must be the same as Sima Yi back then, and he should imitate my law and make it the same." At that time, I had a plan. "A few days later, the thief army will also build wooden oxen and horses to carry grain and grass to Longxi. Cao Fazheng was overjoyed and said: "Sure enough, it is not the same as the handsome." Then he called Xiao Xuan and instructed: "You led a thousand soldiers, pretended to be Tang soldiers, stole through the northern plains in the starry night, only said that it was the grain patrol army, went to the place where the grain was transported, and killed all the people who guarded the grain; But he drove the wooden oxen and horses back, and ran through the north plain: here there will be a thief army chasing after them, and you will twist the tongue in the mouth of the wooden oxen and the horse, and the cow and horse will not be able to move, and you will abandon it, and the thief army behind you will arrive, and those who cannot be dragged at that time will not be able to carry it. The commander had another 20,000 soldiers here, but you turned around and twisted the tongue of the ox and the horse again, and drove the long way. The thieves will be suspicious! Xiao Xuan was tricked to lead the troops away.

Cao Fazheng called Gai Zhuang again and instructed: "If you lead five hundred troops, you must pretend to be six Ding Liujia divine soldiers, ghost heads and beast bodies, paint your face with colorful colors, and make up all kinds of weird appearances; Holding an embroidered flag in one hand and a sword in the other; Hanging a gourd, hiding fireworks inside, lying on the side of the mountain. When the wooden oxen and horses arrived, fireworks were set off, and they were all rushed out to drive the cattle and horses. Most of the thieves are ordinary people, and once they see it, they must be suspected of being gods and ghosts, and they dare not come to chase them. Gaizhuang was then instructed to lead his troops away. Cao Fazheng also called Lu Longyi and Shi Siwen and instructed: "You and the two of you will lead 10,000 soldiers together to go to the Beiyuan Zhaikou to meet the wooden cattle and flowing horses to prevent fighting." He also called Sun Jingkong and instructed: "You personally lead 5,000 soldiers, all of them elite, to cut off Li Shimin's way." He also called Yu Jin and instructed: "You personally lead 2,000 soldiers to Weinan to fight." Each of the four obeyed the command.

Let's say that the thief Liu Wei led the army to drive the wooden cattle and horses, loaded the grain and rice, and suddenly reported that there were soldiers patrolling the grain in front of him. Liu Wei made a sentinel out, and sure enough, it was his own horse, so he moved forward with confidence. The two armies were in one place. Suddenly, there was a loud shout, and the Sui army was killed in the team, shouting: "Xiao Xuan, the general of the imperial court, is here!" The thieves were caught off guard and were killed by most of the Sui soldiers. Liu Wei led the defeated troops to the enemy, and was beheaded by Xiao Xuan, and the rest were scattered. Xiao Xuan then led his troops to drive the wooden oxen and horses back.

The defeated soldiers rushed to report into the Beiyuan Village. When Wei Chi Gong heard that the military rations had been robbed, he hurriedly led the army to rescue him. Xiao Xuan ordered the soldiers to twist the tongues of the wooden oxen and horses, and they all abandoned them on the road, and fought and walked. Wei Chi taught and did not chase, only drove back the wooden ox and flowing horse. All the armies drove together, but where could they move? Wei Chigong was puzzled in his heart, and he was helpless, suddenly the drums and horns were noisy, shouts were everywhere, and the soldiers from two roads were killed, it was Lu Longyi and Shi Siwen. Xiao Xuanfu led his troops back. Three-way attack, Wei Chigong was defeated and left. Xiao Xuan ordered the sergeant to twist the tongue of the cow and horse repeatedly, and then drove away. Wei Chi looked at it, was furious, and wanted to return to the army to chase again, only to see the smoke and clouds protruding behind the mountain, and a team of divine soldiers rushed out, one by one holding the flag sword, in a strange way, driving the wooden oxen and horses to rush away like the wind. Wei Chigong was shocked when he saw it: "This must be God's help!" When the thieves saw this, they were all terrified, and did not dare to pursue them.

However, it was said that Li Shimin heard that the Beiyuan army was defeated, and he hurriedly brought in troops to save him. Halfway to the road, suddenly a cannon sounded, and the soldiers of the two routes came out from the precipitous place, shouting and shaking the ground. On the flag, the big book Sui general Sun Jingkong. Li Shimin was shocked. The thieves panicked and fled. This is exactly what it is:

Lu Fengshen was robbed of food, and his life was in danger when he encountered a strange soldier.

I don't know what happened next, and I'll listen to the next breakdown.
