Chapter 174: Prisoners of War Captured Alive!
"My lord! My lord! Something is wrong! ”
"Most of the army of the Zhou State is coming! All around the mountains and forests all the way to the east! It seems that I regard Luozhou as nothing! Invade Luoyang! ”
Dugu Yongye is still thinking hard about how to recruit reinforcements, and I am afraid that the DPRK and China will not be able to count on it!
As soon as he thought of going to Luoyang in person, the soldiers of the Qi army who were defending the city rushed over in a hurry, and said with a shocked face.
"What?" Dugu Yongye's face immediately tightened:
"I think I use Luozhou as a pile, but it's not Luoyang that is guarded!"
"Quick! The whole army ......"
"My lord," without waiting for Dugu Yongye to finish speaking, the soldier said with a dead face:
"Even if all the people in Wuluo Prefecture are soldiers, there are only a few more than 10,000 people who can fight."
"And the enemies of the Zhou Kingdom are at least 100,000 people!"
"Even if most of them regard my Luozhou as nothing, and attack Luoyang, there are at least 20,000 troops who stay in the periphery of the city and trap my Luozhou!"
"It's really lacking in skills!"
"If you rush to Luoyang, it is equivalent to giving it up! Sent to Luoju! ”
"Whew!" Dugu Yongye slammed his fist on the table:
"If Luoyang is lost! My Luozhou is a lonely city under siege! Sooner or later, it will also fall into the hands of the Zhou Kingdom! ”
The impatient Dugu Yongye paced back and forth quickly and pondered the countermeasures!
After thinking about it for a while, he scolded angrily again:
"Yuwen clan! I'm so nobody! ”
"Pass the order! Fifty brave and resourceful people are called! Have the courage to stand up! Temporary appointment as a marching centurion! ”
"Five thousand! This official personally leads the department! Take on the arrogant Yuwen clan! ”
Hearing the news, the soldier's face was almost pale!
With 5,000 against at least 20,000 enemy troops, and most of the enemy forces are around, they can call the eastward army to return at any time to help......
Huh?
Oh, maybe the purpose is not to contain most of the troops who went to conquer Luoyang?
But......
This battle is likely to be fierce to the death!
……
Gao Changgong took the lead and led 40,000 North Route troops through the mountains and mountains.
Along the way, I encountered more than a dozen stalking soldiers from Luozhou.
Those who dare to resist will be killed on the spot!
And stunned by the sound of the firecracker, the Northern Route Army also had the patience to surrender:
"Luozhou has been besieged for more than ten days, and if you Qi had any reinforcements, they would have been sent a long time ago! How can you be allowed to wait and die in siege? ”
"I treat prisoners of war well! May he forsake him! You can give Da Zhou agricultural status! Ten acres of land were obtained! Enjoy the same treatment as the people of my Zhou country! ”
After a few words, shouted several times, and within more than ten hours of pulling east, the remnants of the Qi State, who had long been aware of the situation, scattered about seventy percent of the soldiers in their hands with sad eyes, and let the soldiers in the rear of the forbidden army take them! Reunification is temporarily repatriated to the outskirts of Luozhou!
When the triumphant return of this battle, all the prisoners of war will also be sent back to Beijing!
Ordered by Yuwen Shihong!
The west gate of Luozhou City suddenly opened!
Yuwen Shihong has already led his troops here!
According to Yuwen Shihong's prediction, knowing that Luoyang is in danger, no matter how smart Dugu Yongye is, he will never think of any other way!
Since he pretends to be loyal to Qi all his life, sacrificing himself and containing my Zhou army to conquer Luoyang is his only choice!
"The whole army obeys the order! Imperial Array! Liang Dong shouted, and the 20,000 Middle Route Army besieging the west gate of Luozhou immediately retreated back about ten zhang!
Immediately afterwards, the square marching array was lined up in a hundred columns in an instant!
In Yuwen Shihong's opinion, this military formation looks like a tank!
The perimeter of the tank is defended by a shield, and the fire gun army is protected inward to kill the enemy from a distance!
Let the deputy of the fire gun be responsible for stuffing eggs! To help the fire can be continuously exploded!
However, the West Gate rumbled out with footsteps, not to mention only a mere ten hundred-man army formation.
Most of the army did not even have wartime armor, at most three army formations held halberds, and the others even held hoes and rakes.
There are also insufficient iron shields, only half of the military formations are armed with iron shields on the periphery, and the other military formations are like improvised militias, and there are even those who use door panels as shields!
The signs that all the people are soldiers are visible to the naked eye!
Yuwen Shihong knew that Dugu Yongye had long lacked military strength, so when he saw this scene, not only did he not show ridicule, but he also admired this person's loyalty.
It's just that he didn't hesitate to risk the lives of the people to be loyal to the mediocre Qi country, this loyalty is really wrong!
Yuwen Shihong is full of pity and pity!
The confrontation is imminent, and a fierce battle to the death is just around the corner!
Yuwen Shihong was not in a hurry to order an attack, but rode his horse to the front of the military formation.
There are unwritten rules on the battlefield, one is not to kill the envoy, and the other is that the generals of the two warring sides should be listed first, and the generals of the other side should also come forward.
Facing Dugu Yongye, who came forward on a donkey, Yuwen Shihong calmly said:
"Luozhou belongs to me, it has long been a sure doom, seeing Lord Dugu's loyalty, I have to say admiration."
The word "I" made Dugu Yongye glare at Tongling's eyes angrily, and his eyelids twitched a few times.
Because he didn't expect that he would be able to talk face-to-face with the monarch of Zhou before the war.
I didn't expect that the young monarch in front of him, who was only twenty years old, was so bold, and he was not afraid that because of his high status, he would stand up like this, triggering his subordinates to release cold arrows, and let him lose his life before the war, which was full of uncontrollable factors.
And yesterday, his sister Dugu Jialuo's words were also uncontrollably vivid.
Although I don't know if the new system of the Zhou State is really so clear, but the restructuring touches the interests of everyone in the clan, and it is more complicated than the battlefield.
"I am alone and yongye, born as a citizen of Qi country, and under the grace of the emperor, I have become a party guard, and I have to fulfill the responsibility of guarding the rule!"
"And this year I am nearly forty, even if I die in battle, I will die a righteous spirit, it's worth it!"
Yuwen Shihong smiled noncommittally:
"Your death will confirm your loyalty."
"But what about the people of Luozhou, they are really not afraid of death like you, and they swear to advance and retreat with Luozhou?"
"The death of the people will fulfill your loyal nation, this ...... Hehe, if you feel that there is nothing wrong, then you can stick to it! ”
After that, Yuwen Shihong rode back to the rear!
In an instant, under the order of the general, the two camps shouted heroically and vigorously, and fought together!
Earlier, there was a lesson from the defeat of Dugu Yongye's strange military formation, and this time the Zhou army also responded to the battle with a military formation and a way to return the other way, even if Dugu Yongye ordered to adjust the defensive army formation many times!
In the face of several times its own troops, and the inadequate training of all the soldiers, the defenders of Luozhou could not even hold up for ten rounds of attack!
Gradually, the army collapsed, and fled back to the gate of Luozhou in embarrassment!
"The army obeys! Capture all the enemy prisoners alive! ”
Seeing that the army of the Zhou State also dispersed the military formation, and all of them scattered to pursue the west gate of Luozhou, Liang Dong immediately issued a military order!
Killing the enemy is no longer his goal!
Yuwen Shihong said it before he pulled it out!
What he wants is people!
