Conquest of Nanzhao --- to defend the bridge and fight against the water1
Teruhara Tai saw that Huo Zhao shot and killed Deliqi, and the Beiting Army lost three generals, and his heart was on fire, worried that the night melee would be unfavorable to him, so he secretly sent an order to all generals to order the soldiers to light torches and prepare to fight forward for a while.
Ju Xingyuan saw that Zhao Yuantai was concerned about the single challenge situation and galloped forward, and the righteous brothers succeeded one after another, and then the three generals of the Beiting Army were bad, and the Southern Zhao Army lit torches one after another, illuminating the formation, and his heart moved, and secretly called Bai Qianyue and Jiang Yangying to give him a secret plan, and Bai and Jiang Er's generals went separately.
There are only four generals left in Nanzhao on the field, there are still five generals left in the Tang army, the situation of the four generals in Nanzhao is dangerous, the two sides have fought fiercely for most of the night, dawn is approaching, and now is the darkest moment in the sky.
But Teruhara Tai was already angry and couldn't wait for the light of day, and if he didn't help, the four generals of Nanzhao might all die on the spot.
So he waved his left hand forward, the Nanzhao soldiers and horses shouted, the killing will pass, the Nanzhao generals who were fighting in the field thought that the defeat was decided, and suddenly saw Zhao Yuantai commanding the Nanzhao soldiers to rush over and take the opportunity to escape.
When the five generals of the Tang Army saw that the Nanzhao soldiers and horses had arrived, they also left their opponents one after another to meet the Nanzhao warriors who were killed.
Ju Xingyuan pointed forward with the green sinking point steel hammer, and the Tang army warriors also rushed forward to kill, and as soon as the two armies clashed, they suddenly heard a shout: "The commander of Nanzhao was killed by an arrow, everyone is side by side!" 」
Although thousands of troops clashed, every word was clearly transmitted to the ears of the samurai on both sides of the war.
It turned out that Ju Xing was far away from the dantian, drumming up his internal strength, shouting loudly, and sure enough, the sentences were clear, and the sound was heard for several miles.
The soldiers of Nanzhao turned back to look in the direction of the commander according to the original Tai, and sure enough, they saw that the arrow in the left shoulder of the original Tai fell backwards, and the generals hurriedly surrounded the guards to protect it, and then the commander of the banner Daxu also fell suddenly, the main general was hit by the arrow, and the Daxu fell, this is a taboo in the army, and the Nanzhao warriors were frightened in their hearts, and their fighting spirit was completely lost, and they retreated.
The warriors of the Tang Army took advantage of the situation to rush forward and kill, fought bravely, fought more with fewer blows, and won a big victory, and the Nanzhao Army dropped more than a thousand corpses and retreated!
What's going on?
It turned out that Ju Xingyuan knew that he had to rely on a thousand defeated soldiers to resist thousands of victorious soldiers with bravery, although Kong Ming was still alive, it was difficult to do it, and to defend the big stone bridge, he had to use some tricks and play some scheming, so since the generals of both sides fought alone, although Ju Xingyuan watched in front of the battle, he kept thinking about the way to defeat the enemy for a moment in his mind.
So first provoke the other party to boost their morale with heads-up, delay the time to wait for reinforcements to arrive, arrange for the cloud-piercing arrow Jiang Yangying to secretly release cold arrows to relieve the unfavorable situation of heads-up, when the opponent's boss is too forward, send Bai Qianyue and Jiang Yangying to quietly bully forward, waiting for the opportunity to shoot the enemy commander and take advantage of the enemy's confusion to shoot the Daxu standard-bearer, weaken its morale, and frustrate its fighting spirit.
Bai Qianyue's arrow is a black ink feather arrow, the whole body is pitch black, and the dark night is the most suitable, not to mention that Bai Qianyue and Jiang Yangying are both sharpshooters with no false arrows, but the distance is far, and there are heavy guards around Zhaoyuan Tai, so they can't hit the vital point, but as soon as this plan comes out, it still works in one fell swoop.
At this moment, the sky was overcast and shining, and a dawn broke through the horizon and shone brightly, and the Nanzhao and Beiting troops retreated about a stone's throw back in a formation and regrouped their lineup, and suddenly saw a far away on the right, and a Biao army horse was rushing in obliquely.
It turned out that the Pang brothers led more than 300 people to the pro-army and defeated soldiers, or rode horses or walked, ran to the big stone bridge, the Nanzhao Beiting army was not successful and released arrows, more than 30 Tang soldiers were behind by arrows, or killed or wounded, the first two generals, brandished spears to open the arrow forest, rushed to the battle, Ju Xing saw that the two were good martial arts, and hurriedly sent troops to shoot back, the Beiting army stopped shooting, and then the whole formation was formed.
Ju Xingyuan received the two generals of Pang into the battle, seeing that the two were tired and tired, and the soldiers were frightened, so they ordered the two to lead the defeated soldiers across the bridge to rest, and the two generals were ordered to lead the Tang soldiers across the bridge and rest in the woods behind the bridge.
Note: In the official history, Xian Yu Zhongtong did not die in the battle of the south, and after returning to the Tang Dynasty, Yang Guozhong covered up his defeat for him, not only was he not punished, but later recommended him as Jing Zhaoyin! to have a good death. This is a novel, for the sake of praise and disparagement, so it is not based on history, please forgive me!
Ju Xingyuan was thinking about how to resist the Nanzhao offensive and boost the morale of the Tang army to hold the bridge.
At this time, Jiang Yangying quietly approached and whispered, "Big brother, I just found out about something and want to report it to you. 」
Seeing his prudence, Ju Xing said, "What is the important matter of the seventh brother? It doesn't hurt to be outspoken. 」
Jiang Yangying looked in all directions, made sure that there was no one near him, and said in a low voice: "There was a report from the defeated soldier just now, and the commander-in-chief has died!" And the commander-in-chief did not die at the hands of the enemy, but was killed by the Chenzhou general Xie Zhiwei! In addition, our Chinese army and rear army have been killed and scattered by the enemy, half of the men and horses have been lost, the deputy marshal Li Hui and the Lingnan Provincial Commander Mu Yijie do not know where to go, and the Shannan West Provincial Commander Tian Dawei was killed by the chaotic army! Centaur scattered! 」
Ju Xingyuan was startled and asked in a low voice, "Is this true? 」
Jiang Yangying affirmed: "The commander-in-chief's matter is true! The Pang brothers are the commander-in-chief's guards, and the messenger is their own sergeant, who has seen it with his own eyes, and it is not false! The rest of the news was told by the fleeing soldiers, and it should be correct! 」
Ju Xingyuan pondered for a while, and said in a low voice, "Don't make a noise about the death of the commander-in-chief, you inform the brothers, like this..."
Jiang Yangying nodded and said, "Do it now!" After that, he was about to leave.
Ju Xingyuan suddenly said, "Slow! Seventh brother! There's still one thing, you cross the bridge and talk to General Xia..."
After Jiang Yangying listened, he responded: "Yes! He left the errand with a pale face.
Ju Xingyuan looked at the Nanzhao army that was arraying about two miles away, and wondered in his heart, can the name of Yum Heavenly King withstand the battle situation that will fall? If you can't pass this threshold, what you can do to make a contribution, worship the prime minister, will become like a dream, if you cross this threshold, you can erect an undefeated reputation, with prestige, to achieve great things, it is not difficult, in short, success or failure, it depends on today's time...
When it was almost dawn, Bai Shuixiu couldn't help but start to be anxious in her heart, I don't know if Hun Ying and Yan Jiming succeeded? If this plan fails, the next step will be to fall into the situation of being outflanked by the enemy, which is not good, Yan Jiming is doing things properly, Hun Ying is loyal and brave, and this heavy responsibility should be handed over to them, it should be safe.
Not long after, there is a faint fire in the direction of Wuding in the northeast, Bai Shuixiu is happy in his heart, it is expected that he has succeeded, at this time, the downstream exploration of the Malay report, there are a large number of Nanzhao soldiers and horses in the road to prepare to build a pontoon bridge, intending to cross the river, the number of people is unknown, the word flag shows that the leader of the army will be Wu Zhongying, the general of Nanzhao Nanting.
Bai Shuixiu was shocked in his heart, and before he could spin his heels, there was a report from the upstream sentry horse, and on the Yuanmou pontoon bridge, there was a leading general Zhu Qianli banner of the general of Nanting, and there were more than 4,000 soldiers and horses, and they were crossing the bridge rapidly.
