Chapter 926: Can Wang Lu Bear It?
Compared with Zhang Ren's ease. Tai Shici, who was in the city of Yunxian County, was a little anxious at this time.
Judging from the situation of the Yonghong Division and the Ganning Department that had returned to fight with the Yizhou Army when Tai Shici was defending the city, it is obvious that these troops are not the main force of the Yizhou Army, and if the Guanping Department still encounters a similar situation, it means that the main force of the Yizhou Army is not on the periphery of Yuxian County, but was taken away by Fazheng. And the one who went to intercept Fa Zheng was Wang Lu, who was currently the weakest in combat power among the three armies, could he block Fa Zheng's breakthrough?
Thinking of this, Tai Shici ordered Gan Ning to stay in Yu County to guard the captured Jia Long, and he himself immediately came to support Guan Ping with 20,000 soldiers.
By the time Tai Shici led the army to the main battlefield in the western suburbs of Yuxian County, Guan Ping had already led his brothers to rush the 40,000 troops under Zhang Ren's command, and was now busy commanding the troops to capture prisoners everywhere. Seeing the chaotic scene in front of him, Tai Shici was even more sure of the speculation in his heart, so he hurriedly commanded the troops to join in the action of capturing the prisoners.
Zhang Ren, who had been paying attention to the situation on the battlefield, suddenly found that the chaotic situation gradually calmed down, and then saw Tai Shici who came urgently to reinforce him, so he urged the war horse under his crotch to hurry towards Tai Shici's location.
"Zhang Ren is here, can Tai Shi Ci dare to fight!" In front of thousands of former Yizhou old departments, Zhang Ren challenged Tai Shi Ci.
Although Tai Shi Ci was worried about Wang Lu's part at this time, he couldn't ignore Zhang Ren, so he urged the horse forward, came to the front of the formation, and shouted at Zhang Ren: "Since General Zhang has this Yaxing, Taishi will be fulfilled by you today!"
After speaking, Tai Shici raised the spear in his hand and urged the horse to come and fight Zhang Ren alone.
Zhang Ren studied under Tong Yuan, and like Zhang Xiu, he learned the marksmanship of the hundred birds and the phoenix, and his martial arts were naturally good. No one knows what Tai Shi Ci taught him from, but everyone knows that he is good at three weapons: longbow, halberd, and spear. The two fought on horseback, naturally using the spear, the "king of a hundred soldiers", as a weapon, and the battle was inextricable as soon as they engaged, which made the soldiers on both sides shouting and cheering very enjoyable.
The scene at that time was very weird, Zhang Ren and Tai Shici were fighting in the dark, and the soldiers on both sides who were close to the battle group were all Yizhou disciples, they seemed to have forgotten their identities, they should have fled when the prisoners forgot to escape, and those who should have captured the prisoners also forgot to capture the prisoners, and everyone was very consciously gathered on both sides, shouting for their own bosses. Guan Ping continued to command his subordinates to clean up the scattered defeated troops on the periphery of the war group, and did not bother to come over to watch the battle.
The two generals who are fighting in the field have different thoughts. Tai Shi Ci was anxious to capture Zhang Ren alive and then sent troops to support Wang Lu, so he was a little jealous, always afraid of accidentally damaging Zhang Ren; Zhang Ren felt that the plan to cover Fa Zheng had been realized, and at this time he only wanted to die and achieve his personal prestige, so he was ruthless.
After Guan Ping had led the army to capture nearly 10,000 prisoners and surrounded the entire battlefield, Zhang Renyu Tai Shici's fierce battle continued. The war horses under the crotches of the two were already tired, and they simply abandoned their horses to fight, each brandishing the spear in his hand and fighting inseparably.
After one hundred and fifty rounds of fighting, Tai Shici finally became anxious, so he suddenly pulled out a short halberd tied to his back and shot at Zhang Ren's right arm, stabbing Zhang Ren's right arm with blood. This is not too Shi Ci is cheating, because he can use three weapons, and he is behind him, Zhang Ren was injured by his flying halberd, so he can't complain about others.
Zhang Ren was seriously injured in the right arm, and it was no longer possible to resist Tai Shi Ci's onslaught, and after a few moves, he saw that he was about to lose, so he simply threw away the spear and sent the spear to Tai Shi Ci in the throat.
After Tai Shici injured Zhang Ren, he kept paying attention to Zhang Renlai's ruthlessness, and seeing that Zhang Ren was really bent on death, he hurriedly lost the spear in his hand, waved his iron fist, and hit Zhang Ren in the back of his neck.
Sweating profusely, Zhang Ren was captured, and Tai Shici shouted to the onlookers of the Yizhou New Army: "Wait for the commander Zhang Ren to be captured, don't put down your arms and accept the surrender!"
The Yizhou veterans standing behind Tai Shici were under the command of the generals of the Jin State, so they shouted one after another: "Brothers, our own people don't fight our own people, the Jin State gives preferential treatment to the surrendered troops, look at our current identity, what else do you have to hesitate?"
At this time, Zhang Song also hurriedly stood up from the new army in Yizhou and shouted: "Brothers, the Sima family has plagued Yizhou for many years, and now that the general trend has gone, how can we continue to work for the tiger and accompany them to the funeral?"
Wu Yi, who was hiding among the recruits, looked at Zhang Song's virtue and felt really ashamed. What he thought in his heart was that in order to please Tai Shici, you just scolded the Sima family, and even dared to say such nonsense that he was "acting for the tiger", Zhen Nima is not ashamed!
The veterans of Yizhou in front of them were shouting, Zhang Song was doing ideological work beside him, and there were Qinghuai troops around him who were eyeing each other and preparing to start, and it didn't take long for all the Yizhou new troops in the field to surrender, and a big battle ended here.
Without waiting for Guan Ping to step forward to report to Tai Shici, a herald had already come over to tell Guan Ping that the 50,000 troops led by Fa Zheng this time were the main force of the Yizhou East Route Army, and asked him to quickly lead the Qinghuai Army to support Wang Lu.
"Second Master Xiaoguan" naturally understood the power, and he was also shocked into a cold sweat at that time, and without saying a word, he handed over the captured prisoners to Tai Shici's troops, and then rushed towards Niu Pi with nearly 20,000 brothers in a hurry.
In the battle of Yixi in Yuxian County, the Qinghuai Army only suffered 3,000 casualties, and then the 40,000 new troops under Zhang Ren were defeated, with more than 15,000 casualties, and the remaining 20,000 people were all taken prisoner, which was also a great victory, which was enough to be recorded in the "Chronicle of the Generals of the Xinghe Empire".
Compared with the great victory and triumphant advance of the armies around Yuxian, Wang Lujun, who was guarding the road from Niupi to Guangdu, was facing a very severe test at this time.
Of the 30,000 troops under Wang Lu's command, 20,000 came from the indigenous soldiers of Jiaozhi, and 10,000 were Yan Yan's old troops, but he was facing 50,000 Yizhou elites who had experienced a year of hand-to-hand combat in Huya Mountain, so the battle was fought extremely hard and cruel from the beginning.
Fortunately, among the 20,000 indigenous soldiers, there are 10,000 soldiers who are more defensive trained by Wang Lu himself, and the other 10,000 are "banditry" soldiers trained by Gan Ning. The remaining 10,000 Yizhou soldiers were disrupted and scattered among the troops below the regiment, but they could not form a dilemma.
Seeing the menacing generals Zhang Yi, Zhang Wei, Meng Shu, Wu Lan, and Lu Kai, Wang Lu knew that something was wrong, and he turned to the soldiers who had already lined up and shouted: "Brothers of Jiaozhi, brothers of Yizhou, the opportunity to make great contributions has arrived! As long as we stop this unit, all brothers who participate in the battle will be given 100 acres of land and a reward of 100 taels of silver! All brothers who are injured or disabled will be rewarded twice! All brothers who sacrifice will be rewarded with a reward of three times that will benefit their families!"
"Brothers, in order to earn military merits, in order to divide the fields, in order to get a reward for silver, rush with me!" Wang Lu finally roared, and rushed towards the Yizhou army without looking back.
