Chapter 130: Retreat
Although Zhao Yun said that he was on the battlefield for the first time, he showed loyalty and bravery.
Tai Shici and Xia Houlan were not far behind, and they asked to be the vanguards, leading their own people to carry out the task of attacking and harassing, so as to cooperate with Sun Guan and others from the east and west directions.
After Liu Qi decided on the situation of the people, he decided to divide the two thousand people under his command into two places, and attacked the military fortress in the south and southeast of the city with Xiahoulan and Tai Shici, and he and Zhao Yun went to the southwest, and the two sides opened a breakthrough at the same time.
In terms of strategy, when attracting the attention of most of the rebels, Sun Guan and others directly took the northeast and northwest directions of the rebels and took advantage of the situation to launch a siege.
This is also thanks to the arrival of the righteous army led by Zhao Yun and Xia Houlan, which made up for his shortcomings in being able to exercise and fight.
chose to separate Zhao and Xiahou, Liu Qi had another consideration, the two of them came to the battlefield for the first time, and they inevitably did not have a thorough understanding of the actual situation.
In order to prevent the Gonggao rebel army from preparing for war, once the collegial agreement, the two groups of men and horses parted ways from the path, and the messenger simultaneously passed the order to Sun Guan and others to advance at night.
A few hours later, even though the moon was in the sky, the dawn had begun to break all around.
In the early morning of autumn, it was full of coolness, and the dew on the branches and leaves wet the clothes of the walkers, adding a bit of cold.
At the appointed time, a one-night march may be the cause of the approaching battle, and everyone is not sleepy.
After another investigation by the scouts, Liu Qi did not hesitate to summon Zhao Yun and others to no longer hide their whereabouts, and gave the order to attack.
When Zhao Yun rode a horse to rush to the village first, Liu Qi called him aside alone, and said: "Zilong, the time has come, we will take down the camp in front of us first, and after we have to take it, we will meet at Gonggao City!"
And the rebels have good combat power, so you should pay attention to safety! ”
Liu Qizhi's care warmed Zhao Yun's heart, although he was much older than Liu Qi, but after getting along for a day and a night, he felt that Liu Qi was magnificent and tolerant.
"Please rest assured Liu Jun, Yun will take it this time!"
Zhao Yun is currently behind, and Liu Qi is leading the crowd.
From getting together in Le'an County to fighting in Pingyuan County, Liu Qi has been accustomed to fighting immediately with the archery and swordsmanship that have been in constant contact for several years.
In just a few months, there were more than 10 people who punished the enemy, including many strong Wuhuan soldiers.
Of course, for generals, charging and fighting can boost morale, but commanding from the rear is more important.
Therefore, after Zhao Yun charged ahead, Liu Qi consciously commanded the soldiers of the headquarters.
Half an hour later, Zhao Yun's men and horses took the lead in rushing towards the rebels in the camp, the spear in his hand kept waving, and after facing the rebels, he immediately found a breakthrough to attract the rebels in the village to disperse and kill.
Before and after Liu Qi's arrival, he quickly filled the vacancy with soldiers, and it was bound to leave the people and horses here to relieve the pressure for Sun Guan and others to attack.
Looking at Zhao Yun's chic posture in the distance, Liu Qi inevitably sighed: It's not a loss to Changshan Zhao Zilong, who is known for his loyalty and bravery!
In the other direction, Tai Shici and Xia Houlan also entered the enemy village.
The rebels were caught off guard and killed the rebels in all directions. The rebels who were still in Gonggao City, after studying and judging, saw that the number of people attacking from the south was not large, and they were successfully pinned down to reinforcements.
At this time, Sun Guan and other generals, who were encircling from the east, west and north, and three directions, learned from the scout's mouth that the main general Liu Bei had launched an offensive in advance, and lured the enemy, and then learned the movement of the troops in the bow and high city, and launched the attack as planned.
"Kill!"
The entire Gonggao City, inside and outside the city, fell into a crisis in a short period of time.
Liu Qi used the attacks of people from all walks of life to grasp the timing, which can be said to be very appropriate.
In the north of Gonggao City, the rebel general Xie Lian's face was gloomy, and after knowing that he was surrounded on all sides and the people on the south side were trapped, he quickly reacted, because in addition to his sheep attack, the Han army had already taken the opportunity to fight. This time, Makoto is planning to leave the other horses behind.
How could Xie Lian swallow this breath, while letting the soldiers open the breakthrough of the Han army in the north, and on the other hand, he planned to personally lead his troops to kill to the south and rescue the besieged people.
Seeing this, the deputy general Wang Mo could only persuade him stubbornly: "General, we should retreat quickly, the Han army is fierce, and there should be tens of thousands of people, I am afraid that it will be in the plains, and all of them will be recruited."
Once we are cut off, we may bury our bones here!
For the sake of today's plan, he should quickly join up with General Qiu An of Zhongshan Kingdom to retreat to the secluded land.
It's about the safety of us and others, please think twice! ”
During this period of time, the Han army reorganized its men and horses and won great victories in Pingyuan County and other places, which greatly damaged the confidence of its troops.
Low morale, coupled with the loss of the first hand, in the face of the attack of most of the Han army, Wang Mo and other generals saw, if you want to win, how difficult it is, only to give up some looted things, choose to continue to retreat, and with the Wuhuan cavalry that is plundering in Zhongshan State, return to the rear of Liaoxi, is the key.
The purpose of the main general Zhang Chun was not to occupy the land of Qing and Hebei, and to seize the money, grain and population was the goal.
Xie Lian was still hesitating, but Sun Guan led the men and horses, and he didn't intend to give Xie Lian's troops a chance to leave, and he took the lead, and in just a few quarters of an hour, he had already attacked and killed Xie Lian's front.
And Zhao Yun was also leading his troops into the city from the south of the city, and the situation was further tilted towards Liu Qi.
As the situation continued to be critical, the rebels no longer had the heart to fight, and even Xie Lian, who was on the verge of rage, had to accept the adjutant general's advice and lead his troops to retreat.
An hour passed, and when he was in the corner, Liu Qi stepped into Gonggao City.
Zhao Yun, Sun Guan, and Tai Shici joined forces, led by Liu Qi, and continued to pursue Baili to the north.
The results of Gong Gao's victory in this raid were sent to Plains County at the same time.
A day later, the Qingzhou soldiers entered the Hejian country.
This time, under Liu Qi's discussion, the generals of the state and county departments, after Liu Qi's leadership won a big victory, finally reached an agreement and prepared to attack in the direction of Lecheng together.
Liu Qi did not let the people of the headquarters move forward this time in order to compete for merit.
The rebels are in the part of the Hejian State, and counting most of the Wuhuan people who have evacuated with them, it is no longer a big trouble. However, under the interests of all parties in the state and county, if the subordinates snatch too many military achievements, it will not be beneficial for him to deal with things in the state and county in the future, and this is also an opportunity to make good local generals.
In the next ten days, the war in Hejian State, the people of the prefecture and county, won more and lost less, and the rebels were attacked here, and their vitality was greatly damaged, and they decisively withdrew from Jizhou. In Zhuo County and other places, the local rebel army was raised, and with the gathering of men and horses from all sides, the rebels were defeated and retreated to Yuyang County.
Liu Qi led the troops, but they have been guarding the area of Gonggao, with the people of each department, cooperating with the local county government to stabilize the place and help the autumn harvest.
In the front of the big victory, Liu Qi had already asked for credit to Sun Guan, Tai Shici, Zhao Yun, Xiahoulan and others from the state and county, the court, and the central government.
And the Battle of Gonggao, as one of the decisive victories that defeated the rebels and invaded Qingdao and Hebei Prefectures, Shouguang ordered Liu Qizhi's name to be introduced to Luoyang again.
