The Battle of Puzhou Chapter 219 The Battle of Yangcheng was defeated by Southern Qi

In Puban City, Dugu Ao saw that the camp on the west bank of the Yellow River had collapsed, and decisively cut off the Yellow River pontoon bridge connecting Puban, so as to prevent the soldiers and horses of the Eastern Qin Dynasty from taking the opportunity to cross the river.

But at this time, the situation was already extremely unfavorable to Western Qin, and Yuwenzhi was blocked in Tongguan, unable to break through Fu Yuan's defense line in a short time.

After Zhao Zhao entered Chaibi, he crossed the Yellow River and seized Tiandu, forcing Hou Moyue not to dare to rush to support, so he could only turn around and fight Zhao Zhao.

The Eastern Qin army has now connected the two banks of the Yellow River and has begun to attack the two roads from Guanzhong to Tongguan.

Sima Linhai's leader was like a firefighter, who was originally going to go out of Tongguan to support Yuwenzhi, but now he was forced to start purging the grain transport team of Eastern Qin west of Tongguan.

After Dugu Ao heard that Yubi City was forcibly demolished, he forcibly broke through and crossed the Yellow River to send a letter to Yuwenzhi, no matter what, he had to defend Pusaka, if he lost Pusaka, it would be difficult to take it back.

The truth Yuwen Zhi can not know, but Fu Yuan is not an ordinary person, although Yuwen Zhi is a famous general, it is impossible to easily defeat Fu Yuan.

Just when Fuqu was honestly preparing to attack Puban in a desperate way, a news came from the direction of Luoyang that the 70,000 troops of the Southern Qi Dynasty had gone north and had conquered Suiyang County, and the soldiers were pointing directly at Luoyang.

Fuqu was shocked when he heard this, and scolded: "This thief of the Southern Dynasty is really hateful to take advantage of the fire to rob. ”

But now that the two sides are holding each other and riding tigers, it is true that if the troops are withdrawn from Pusaka at this moment, it will definitely be a rout on the whole front, and the battle lines of the two sides have been stretched too long, and the whole body will be affected by a single shot, especially Zhao Zhaobu, who is on the west bank of the Yellow River, it is difficult to withdraw back in time.

"Where is Duke Jin now?" Frustration Qu asked admittedly.

"The Duke of Jin and His Majesty are about to arrive in Hanoi."

Hearing this, Fuqu admittedly felt a little settled in his heart, if Min Shiyuan's army could arrive, then there was still the strength of a battle, but with the power of one country against two countries, it was really a bit of a loss.

After thinking about the current situation, Fuqu Cheng decided to leave Fu Yuan in command of the battle, and could not let Yuwen go out of Tongguan, and the rest of the armies acted according to the original plan, and the command of the battle for Puzhou was handed over to Mo Duolou Invincible.

Fuqu admittedly broke away from his subordinates and returned to Luoyang to meet Min Shiyuan.

Fuqu Chengran and Min Shiyuan met in Kim Yong City, and Min Shiyuan saw Fuqu Chengran alone, and exclaimed, "Could it be that the front line has been defeated?" ”

Fuqu was relieved: "It was not defeated, and now our army has the advantage in the Yellow River battlefield, but Wei Ran has already invaded Henan, and he feels that the Southern Qi expedition is coming, and he must be sleepy and lacking horses, and he just wants to make a profit, so he returned to Luoyang first, organized men and horses, and repelled the Southern Qi in a battle." ”

In his opinion, there is no need for Nanqi to fight with them, as long as the Nanqi army is given a head-on blow, the Nanqi army will definitely lose their fighting spirit, and they have already conquered Suiyang County, and they must only want to keep this county.

At this time, the Southern Qi had already marched from Huaishui and conquered Xuchang, the former capital of Cao Wei, and Fuqu was admittedly decisive and led the 100,000 troops brought by Min Shiyuan to march towards Xuchang.

Fuqu admittedly ascended to Yangcheng, looking at the Southern Qi army outside the city, the military appearance was complete, the expression was solemn, and the killing atmosphere in the cold wind was aggressive, and he couldn't help exclaiming: "Such a strong army, no wonder it is invincible." ”

Later, looking at the soldiers under his command, because the elites were all in Tongguan, the recruits he led were mainly recruited by Min Shiyuan, and the combat power was far from that of Southern Qi.

The soldiers of the Eastern Qin Dynasty were afraid of the prosperity of the Southern Qi Dynasty and did not dare to move forward, and they knew that the Southern Qi had won many great victories, and now their morale was sharp, so they had been unable to hold out.

The two sides faced off in Yangcheng for several days, and occasionally fought with each other, but they all ended in the defeat of the Qin army, and Fuqu knew that if you want to win this battle, you can only win with strange soldiers, so you called Hu Lu Mingyue and said: "You have always been brave, I still have two thousand elite cavalry in my hands, but I personally trained, the combat power is quite strong, tomorrow I will transfer the cavalry to you, do you dare to lead the cavalry to charge the Southern Qi army?" ”

Hu Lu Mingyue said loudly: "Why don't you dare? There are no brave bandits in the south, and I can defeat them in a battle. ”

Frustrated Qu Chengran then said: "Now that our army has been defeated, most of the soldiers are new soldiers, and repeated defeats are even more timid, and the number of battles in the past is not good for us, the general will attack the Qi army tomorrow, and he can win, there is no need to chase and fight, the most important thing is to preserve his strength, this time the main thing is to give confidence to the troops." ”

On the second day, the gate of Yangcheng City was opened, and Hu Lu Mingyue led the cavalry to rush to the Wei Ran army array.

Liu Renye was also shocked when he saw that the Eastern Qin army dared to go out of the city to fight, and then ordered the front army to meet the battle, and sent cavalry to surround it from both sides.

Hulu Mingyue fought bravely, the Eastern Qin soldiers were all fierce and not afraid of death, and well-equipped, not long after, the front army of the Southern Qi showed a rout, fortunately, at this time, the cavalry sent by Liu Renye returned to the rear of Hulu Mingyue and launched a charge against Hulu Mingyue.

Seeing this scene, it was true that the frustrated canal on the city tower saw that Hu Lu Mingyue had pursued too deeply, and if he didn't support him, he might not be able to retreat with his whole body, so he personally led more than 10,000 people out of the city to meet Hu Lu Mingyue.

The rise of Hulu Mingyue killing, when he came back to his senses, he found that he had pursued the enemy too deeply, and accidentally fell into the encirclement, but seeing that the front army had collapsed, if he retreated at this time, the Southern Qi army would definitely regroup, and his efforts would be in vain.

So after some weighing, Hu Lu Mingyue immediately decided not to retreat, and personally led the army to rush left and right in the Southern Qi army, trying to defeat the Southern Qi army formation, and the Southern Qi army formation was under the impact of the Eastern Qin cavalry, and it was really difficult to organize an effective counterattack in a short period of time.

Then Hu Lu Mingyue led more than 100 people, turned around and went towards the Southern Qi cavalry that was attacking him, and killed a Southern Qi general with just one face.

Hu Lu Mingyue picked the corpse of the Southern Qi general on the spear, and then smashed it at the Southern Qi cavalry.

Seeing such a momentum, the Southern Qi cavalry was also frightened for a while and did not dare to move forward.

Wei Ran had already discovered this situation in the Chinese army, and immediately rode forward, looked at the young generals fighting in front, and couldn't help but admire: "What a young man, brave and brave." ”

Yang Jian said unconvinced at this time: "How does King Qin know that there are no warriors in our court?" ”

After speaking, he was about to raise his gun to fight, Wei Ran dissuaded: "This person is quite brave, you are still young, you can't afford to lose." ”

Yang Jian was provoked by these words, and he only wanted to make meritorious service at the moment, so he ignored Wei Ran's obstruction, and immediately went to Hulu Mingyue.

Hu Lu Mingyue saw a young general suddenly coming, and immediately stabbed with a gun.

The two sides are fighting fiercely, and Wei Ran, who is watching, also nodded again and again, the force of the sheep arrow is quite high, and when it comes to fighting alone, I am afraid that it is still above Liu Renye.

After all, Liu Renye is a Confucian general, arranging troops is his strength, and fighting alone is his shortcoming, but although the sheep arrow is brave, the actual combat experience is very poor, and he was suppressed by Hu Lu Mingyue after a short time, and fell into traps everywhere.

In desperation, Wei Ran had no choice but to pick up the bow and arrow and shoot an arrow at Hu Lu Mingyue, who was on the rise of the battle with the sheep arrow, and suddenly heard the sound of sharp arrows breaking through the air, and immediately knew that someone was sneaking up, and then hurriedly turned around to dodge.

The sheep arrow seized the opportunity and began to launch a counterattack against Hu Lu Mingyue, who was almost stabbed off the horse by the sheep arrow in a panic.

Frustrated Qu, who had already killed the future in the distance to meet Hu Lu Mingyue, admittedly saw this situation, and at the moment he was also an arrow towards the sheep arrow, the sheep arrow couldn't dodge, and was shot in the shoulder by an arrow, and almost fell off the horse in pain.

Wei Ran was worried, and immediately stepped forward, and another arrow went towards Fuqu Cheng.

Frustration Qu was admittedly facing Wei Ran and an arrow shot out, and the arrows of the two sides collided together in the air, and then fell to the ground weakly together.

Wei Ran looked at the frustration in the distance, and he was shocked at the moment, this person actually looked a little like Weber.

So Wei Ran immediately took a few steps forward and asked in a loud voice: "Who is coming, you can know your name." ”

Fuqu admittedly said proudly: "If you don't change your name, you can't change your surname, it's true that you can't change your surname." ”

Wei Ran immediately asked, "Who are you?" Who are you? ”

"The King of Taiyuan is my uncle, and Chengye is my brother, presumably you are Wei Ran, the King of Qin in Southern Qi."

Wei Ran knew in his heart at the moment, knowing that this person was a member of the Weber clan, but he couldn't figure it out, the Fuqu clan was imprisoned, and he had never heard Weber mention this person, this person was talented and capable, if there was such a person, Weber should have already informed himself.

So in a puzzled situation, Wei Ran temporarily chose Mingjin to withdraw his troops and then make a plot.

But this collection of troops, but caused a big mistake, itself the Eastern Qin cavalry in the Wei Ran array rushed to kill, the Southern Qi suddenly Ming Jin retreated, the front army itself was already showing a rout, and the sudden withdrawal made them like a rain.

The front army retreated rapidly, and the Chinese army, which was still watching from the sidelines, did not consider the danger at all, and when they saw the sudden large-scale retreat of the front army, the Chinese army thought that the front line had been defeated, so they also retreated one after another, trampling on each other and killing countless people.

Seeing this scene, although he didn't know why Wei Ran suddenly withdrew his troops, how could he easily let go of such a good situation, so he immediately led the army to rush towards the Southern Qi army.

Wei Ran woke up like a dream at this time, but he couldn't change the order, so he organized the three thousand guards around him to personally break the queen, Hu Lu Mingyue was the happiest to kill at this time, and rushed up head-on, and he who had just repelled the sheep arrow was in the middle of the battle at this time.

Hu Lu Mingyue saw an intentional general not far away, dressed in a white robe and carrying a silver gun, although he didn't know Wei Ran, but he also guessed that he must be an extremely important person, at this time, Hu Lu Mingyue, who was full of self-confidence, rushed directly to Wei Ran at the moment.

Wei Ran finally stabilized his position and let the army retreat calmly, and suddenly saw that the young general who had been praised by him before was actually coming towards him.

Wei Ran immediately made a decision, and shot three arrows in a row at Hu Lu Mingyue, three stars in a row, and Hu Lu Mingyue could dodge.

Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, Wei Ran's spear had arrived, and Hu Lu Mingyue raised his spear to resist in a panic.

But Wei Ran is now in the prime of life, and his strength is incomparable, and he stabbed Hu Lu Mingyue with a shot, and Hu Lu Mingyue hurriedly resisted with a horizontal gun, and the huge impact force made him almost fall off the horse directly.

As soon as he turned around, Wei Ran's spear came directly like Mount Tai pressing the top.

Hu Lu Mingyue waved his gun to block, Wei Ran's blow sank vigorously, Hu Lu Mingyue was directly knocked to the ground by Wei Ran and his people and horses, Wei Ran no longer showed mercy, and directly shot Hu Lu Mingyue's face.

Just when Hu Lu Mingyue was waiting for death behind closed doors, he suddenly found that the tip of the gun had not fallen.

I saw that I was hurriedly carried back by a few guards, and Hu Lu Mingyue looked up, only to see an arrow in her left hand.

Then Wei Ran bent his bow and arrows and went towards Fu Qu Cheng, Fu Qu Cheng dodged and dodged, and then galloped his horse and fired arrows at Wei Ran.

The same is true for Wei Ran, after the two sides fired six arrows at each other, Wei Ran seized the opportunity to suddenly draw a shocking crossbow from the side of the horse, and suddenly three arrows were fired at the same time.

Frustrated Qu got up from the ground in embarrassment, and began to retreat under the cover of the guards, Wei Ran saw that the army had retreated safely, so he no longer struggled, turned around and retreated.

The two sides fought in Yangcheng, and the Southern Qi army was defeated.

Back in the camp, Wei Ran was annoyed, and Liu Renye was relieved: "King Qin, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, so you don't have to blame yourself so much. ”

Wei Ran just pounded the table and said: "The blame for the defeat of this battle is all on me, and I lost my mind at the moment and issued a chaotic order." ”

But then Wei Ran asked curiously: "You are looking at the Qin army today, how is the combat power?" ”

Liu Renye thought about it carefully, and then said: "At first, the people led by the young general were well-equipped and brave in battle, and they could be called elite, but then the soldiers who went out of the city, I couldn't see Er'er, and even the three thousand people of the King of Qin couldn't break through, not to mention my tens of thousands of troops, I don't think I can be afraid." ”

Wei Ran carefully recalled today's battle, and then came to a conclusion and said: "If I didn't guess, most of the Qin soldiers in Yangcheng are recruits, so I want to use the elite to improve morale, today's defeat is just enough for those recruits not to be afraid of us, and we will start to forcibly attack the city tomorrow, but they will be defeated every time, so that those recruits gradually think that our army is not terrible, and then lead out of the city to annihilate it." ”

Before Liu Renye could speak, Yang Jian hurriedly said: "No, King Qin, the enemy's recruits, the combat power is vulnerable, the brave one of the two armies wins, if their morale is high, our army will definitely lose a lot, and the gains will not be lost, at this time, we should face the attack head-on and press the enemy to fight, so as to win." ”

Wei Ran just glanced at the sheep arrow and asked casually, "Is the shoulder injury okay?" ”

"It's just a small injury, why worry about it."

Seeing the disdainful sheep arrows, Wei Ran patiently explained: "There is an essential difference between attacking the city and defending the city, although the enemy army is mostly new soldiers, but the defense of the city occupies a favorable geographical position, and there are veterans to lead, so it will not be defeated, and our army comes far to Henan, although it can transport grain and grass through the river, but the supply is not as good as Yangcheng's defense, and it is necessary to prevent the enemy from attacking at night for a long time when stationed outside the city for a long time, and in the long run, it is quite unfavorable." If they were to be lured out of the city for field battles, the slightest decline would have resulted in a rout of the enemy's army, and casualties would have been minimized. ”
