In Longmen Town, Wang Rong also slept late, and the soldiers from Yique Pass were telling him about the daytime battles and the movements of the Yu army reported back by scouts everywhere, so he didn't sleep until late.

Lying on the not very comfortable bed, Wang Rong's brain kept spinning, thinking about the current situation.

The Yu army in Ruoyang has been dispatched and is coming to Longmen Town, Wang Rong's idea is to take the two infantry and two cavalry and four divisions of the Wuwei Army, plus the first army, a total of 100,000 people, which can completely annihilate the Yu army out of the city in the field.

Wang Rong stopped thinking, Wang Xu was his guard, and Wang Rong told him that once something happened, no matter how big or small, Wang Xu must wake himself up.

Early the next morning, when the sky was still bright, Wang Xu called him up, and the scouts in the northwest sent urgent military information.

The Yu army seems to have been beaten badly by Wang Tan at Yique Pass yesterday, and sent a lot of cavalry to bypass Yique Pass to try to advance eastward, and also sent a large number of small teams of rangers into Longmen Mountain, which seems to have the intention of bypassing Jiancheng and going east directly, which may be a way to explore.

Wang Rong suddenly lost his sleepiness, and when he got up, he was about to scold a few words, and immediately sent out all the soldiers of the scout battalion to deal with the small Yu army that was interspersed with the eastward advance, and at the same time told Wang Xu: "You go and find Yin He and Gou Anli, you must be fast."

Zhang Yunshu stood to the side, with a serious expression, and said, "It seems that Wang Tan fought too well, and Yu Jun had other thoughts."

"They must be plugged back." Wang Rong made a conclusion without saying a word, and said, "The Yu army must be tempting, if there is not much pressure to the east, they will choose to bypass the Yique Pass and divide their troops to the east, so that the entire battle situation will be affected." This time, we must meet the head-on blow so that they do not dare to bypass the Yique Pass."

Soon, Yin He and Gou Anli arrived, and since the last defeat, they have been blaming themselves.

Yin He and Gou An gave a military salute and asked, "What are the instructions of the Holy Lord to find the last general?"

"The Yu army has more than 1,000 horsemen who bypassed Yique Guandong and entered Longmen Mountain." Wang Rong got straight to the point, "They want to test and be scared by Wang Tan at Yique Pass, to see if we are empty in the east, if we are empty, we can directly bypass Yique Pass, divide our troops and march eastward, and don't care about the difficult bones."

Saying that, Wang Rong patted Yin He and Gou Anli on the shoulders, and ordered: "I order you to take the second army to give the Yu army a head-on attack, and let them retreat to Yique Pass, and I will give you another brigade of hussars, can you do it?"

Gou Anli became excited, he had just lost, and he was about to have a chance to perform, so he immediately knelt down on one knee and said, "Please rest assured, the last general will definitely let Yu Jun have no return this time!"

On the morning of the same day, Wang Bian ordered Yin He and Gou Anli to lead the Second Army and a brigade of hussars into Longmen Mountain to the west to meet the eastward advancing Yu army, so as to dispel the enemy's desire to bypass Yique Pass and divide his troops eastward.

At the same time, send out the scout detachment, and if they encounter a small group of cavalry of the Yu army advancing eastward, they will block them and engage them.

Therefore, from the beginning of July, the Yu army under the Yique Pass stopped attacking the city and turned it into a siege, after which at least 5,000 Yu troops began to advance from various small roads, intending to find out the reality in the east.

Wang Rong sent scouts and troops of Yin He and Gou Anli to the west to deal with it.

In July, the weather was hot, and the war quickly shifted from large-scale battles to skirmishes between Yique Pass and Longmen Town, between woods and fields.

The woods were cooler than tents, the July wind was howling, the large branches and leaves rattled, like waves, Gou An Li rested under a big tree, and a large number of scouts were sent out from all sides to search for the traces of the Yu army.

Gou Anli breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, the previous defeat to the Yu army was a great shame for him, and he felt extremely guilty, the people he brought out, more than 5,000 people only came back more than 2,200 in the end, which was almost a devastating blow to an army, and it also had a great impact on the morale of the army.

Since the establishment of the Tang Army, he has never suffered such a defeat in the east and west, and the result is that he has started.

Therefore, since leading the troops to the west, Gou Anli has devoted himself to the major event of resisting the infiltration of the Yu army into the east.

However, this is not a simple matter, the terrain between Yique Pass and Longmen Town is flat, and there are a lot of fields in the middle

Ground and woods, there are many trails to walk.

Longmen Mountain, on the other hand, was undulating, with more trail valleys and more difficult to defend, so the Yu army could be divided into many small units to advance separately.

This is originally the best way of playing for the people of Yu, and the people of Yuguo like to take a hundred horsemen as a team, in front of the army, and first go forward to reconnoiter and attack.

If you can fight it, you can fight it, and if you can't beat it, retreat immediately and report the situation to the Chinese army.

At present, such terrain is most suitable for the Yu army to play, and the terrain of Longmen Mountain has a large number of trails that allow the Yu army to advance eastward from all over the place.

In order to cope with this situation, the Tang army had to think of another way.

Yin He and Gou Anli's response was to stop the main force of the army outside Zhengjiazhuang, twenty-five miles northeast of Yique Pass, and at the same time let the scouts also disperse, and more than a dozen people were separated for a team of light horses and fast horses to reconnoiter to the west, and immediately returned to report if they found the traces of the Yu army.

This place is located on the edge of a wide road, since it can hold the passage, so that the large cavalry of the Yu army can not advance eastward, and at the same time, until the main force of the Yu army is figured out, the main force will not move.

Their main force had been waiting here for a day, and in the afternoon, scouts came back one after another, reporting to the two men that the main force of the Yu cavalry, more than 2,000 people, had reached about twenty miles west of them along the wide road.

Yin He and Gou Anli immediately turned on their horses, asked the herald to gather all the cavalry, gathered on the wide road, and then led the crowd to gallop west.

A few quarters of an hour later, the two sides were far from each other on the northern avenue, hundreds of paces apart, and they could see each other from a distance, and a large number of cavalry met on the wide road. For a while, both sides were nervous, stopped their horses, and had no time to unfold, the Yu army on the opposite side was wearing a hard leather armor, a bow, and a spear when the Yu army cavalry general was shouting something, Yin He's eyes were fast, and he opened his bow and shot directly at the arrow.

Before the other side finished speaking, the war horse under his crotch fell to the ground with a wail, and the general of the Yu army who took the lead was thrown out directly.

"Kill!" Gou An shouted vigorously, and directly hit the horse and led the team to cover the past.

The Tang army is the elite of a hundred battles, and the cavalry of the hussar division is following Wang Biao, the battle that should be fought has not fallen, and the order is given, and it moves instantly, the light and heavy cavalry are separated, the heavy cavalry charges forward directly, and the light cavalry separates from the two wings, and quickly rushes from the avenue into the fields on both sides, outflanking the rear.

The Tang army not only likes to use the glaive array in the infantry and cavalry melee, but also uses a lot in the cavalry battle, the heavy cavalry of the Chinese army rushed forward to kill, and the light cavalry quickly outflanked the two wings from the fields on both sides.

Constantly covering the Chinese army with bows and crossbows, soon the Chinese army rushed directly into the middle of the Henan army like a torrent of rolling steel.

Because the main general was shot off the horse by Yin He for the first time, the Yu army fell into chaos and could not react, and their armor and weapons were not as good as the Tang army.

The encounter was too sudden, the front army screamed in horror, and the rear army turned around and ran back in a daze, and their previous style of fighting was "scattered and reunited", and they were never ready to fight the Tang army.

As a result, the Yu army in the middle was blocked before and after, and under the trend of survival instinct, they desperately rushed out of the fields on both sides, but the light cavalry of the Tang army outflanked on both flanks had already cruised in groups, waiting to shoot them with bows and crossbows.

For a time, the whole avenue was filled with smoke and dust, a large number of wheat fields on both sides were trampled flat, many cavalry ran and fought, Jin Ge iron horses, shouting and killing and the sound of horses' hooves mixed together, deafening.

As soon as the confrontation began, Yin He quickly shot down the main general of the Yu army, the heavy cavalry of the Tang army rushed all the way forward from the avenue to kill, and the tactics of the light cavalry outflanking the periphery from the fields on both wings completely ate the Yu army to death.

After two quarters of an hour of fighting, the Yu cavalry either abandoned their armor and fled north, or they were driven into the fields on both sides of the avenue.

Gou An vigorously stopped the pursuit of the Chinese army, and returned to the army to encircle and strangle the Yu army who were driven to the fields.

After half an hour of fighting, the cavalry of the Tang army formed two large circles, besieging hundreds of Yu cavalry on each side in the middle, with heavy cavalry in the middle, holding spears and sabers, and the periphery was a cruising light cavalry, constantly shooting with bows and crossbows, without the slightest intention of engaging with the Yu army, but constantly killing and wounding the Yu army with bows and crossbows.

It is best to be able to kill people from a distance, this is an important idea of the tactics of the Tang Army, and the cavalry can ride and shoot is a very important criterion.

In the infantry, sword and shield soldiers and spearmen generally account for only three or four percent, and the rest are ranged soldiers armed with bows and crossbows, and try to use ranged kills and damage the enemy.

It's just that the crossbowman is not the image of a delicate, elegant, thin-armored person as people understand it.

Elite crossbowmen are all tall and well-armed, and they can't pull a strong bow without much strength, and once the enemy can't resist the long-range bow and crossbow to break up, or rush directly, the crossbowman will change to a ring head knife and fight directly.

The battle of encirclement and annihilation lasted until dusk, and the corpses of the fallen men and horses of the Yu army were piled up into a hill, and blood flowed like a river.

The rest of the people cried and knelt on the ground and kowtowed, they may have surrendered a long time ago, but because the dialect was too serious, the Tang soldiers could not understand it, so they did not show mercy to their subordinates.

In the end, his subordinate brigade commander excitedly reported to Yin He and Gou Anli on the wide road: "Two generals, the Yu army has all surrendered! Our army killed 1,540 thieves and captured more than 270! Do you want the prisoners to be escorted to Longmen Town immediately?"

Gou Anli laughed happily, and finally washed away the shame of his previous defeat in Jianshui, and immediately said: "Send someone to Longmen Town to report the victory to the saint, tell the whole army not to chase west, and be careful of the dog thieves of the Yu Kingdom to set up ambushes, they are the best at that, they can't fight only by tricks."

Then Gou An said viciously: "Don't send the prisoners, if you send them over, the Holy Lord spared their lives, wouldn't it be cheaper for these dog thieves who killed their brothers, and kill them all on the spot, just tell the Holy Lord that all the thieves and soldiers of the Yu Kingdom were killed by us."

At night, a bloody battle ended in the fields along the avenue, a large wheat field was flattened, and blood once again watered this war-torn land......
