Fierce generals fight bloodily
Li Hanzhi once defected to Huangchao, contaminated with the habits of many thieves, and had no determination to attack Tongguan, and after two tentative attacks, he divided a large force and went east.
To the east is Yuzhou, and there are only 2,000 troops of Zhang Xingjin in the city.
However, Yuzhou has been operated by Wang Heng for many years, and it is difficult for Li Hanzhi to succeed in a hurry.
In this era, there are no siege weapons, and the defenders have a great advantage, and the key is to see if the defenders have the determination to defend it.
Regardless of whether Li Ye saves Yuzhou or not, he needs to deal with the camp left by Li Hanzhi under Tongguan.
Judging from the city walls, the strength of the camp was about 6,000 to 8,000 people, mixed with some civilians.
To fight or not to fight?
It seems that the devil and angels are constantly entangled in Li Ye's heart.
What if this is an ambush set up by Li Hanzhi? Once the defenders are out of the pass, Li Hanzhi's 30,000 troops will be surrounded on all sides?
"What about scouts? Why hasn't the scout reported yet? Li Ye was in a hurry, if Li Hanzhi really attacked Yuzhou, he would not be able to save himself from death.
Xue Guangheng beside him said: "Back to Your Majesty, the scout sent to Yuzhou last night has not come back yet." ”
Xin Shilang's internal injuries were not good, and he stayed in Chang'an to recuperate, and now Xue Guangheng is under the jurisdiction of the guards.
Haven't come back yet? It's almost a day and a night, hurry up, you should have found out the situation in Yuzhou a long time ago.
Did something happen to them?
If it is Li Hanzhi's hunting and killing scouts, this behavior is worth investigating.
Li Ye paced anxiously in the city tower.
The original plan was to go down, sit and watch the battle in the river, and collect the displaced people.
But he didn't think about Zhang Xingjin's rashness, which made things deviate from the expectation, attracting Li Hanzhi to the front line of Tongguan, and Li Ye had to personally support Tongguan.
And now, do you have to hold on? Sit and watch Zhang Xingjin and Li Xiaoqi being eaten by Li Hanzhi? This is the essence of their own careful cultivation, and they will rely on them to revitalize Datang in the future.
A qualified decision-maker must be cold-blooded and ruthless, and all decisions must be made in the first place.
Li Ye sighed, he was a person after all, and he couldn't be cold-blooded and ruthless.
So Zhang Xingjin and Li Xiaoqi must be saved!
Just when Li Ye made up his mind, a scout outside the building reported loudly: "Yuzhou urgent, Yuzhou urgent." ”
Li Ye hurriedly went out, and saw a bloodied scout half-kneeling on the ground, "Your Majesty, Li Hanzhi's army is heading straight for Yuzhou." ”
"How many troops?" Li Ye asked urgently.
The scout hesitated, "The enemy army divided the cavalry and pursued and killed along the way, and the villain and the villain didn't see it real." ”
Li Ye looked at the scars all over his body, still bleeding, and knew that it was not easy for him to come back.
Historically, before the Great War, the strangulation between scouts was bloodier.
Li Ye helped him up and said gently: "You have worked hard, go and recuperate first." ”
A simple action and a sentence, the young scout was moved to tears.
Li Ye thought deeply, Li Hanzhi took such a lot of trouble to hunt and kill scouts and hide his traces, was it to arrange an ambush along the Yuzhou line?
With an army of 30,000 under his command, there was no need to be so cautious.
If he is Li Hanzhi, the best strategy is to encircle the point and send reinforcements, and set up an ambush to attract the main force of Tongguan to rescue, and then besiege the reinforcements. Li Hanzhi's forces can fully do this.
If Tongguan does not come to the rescue, he can calmly attack Yuzhou and then eat Shaanzhou.
At present, there are 30,000 Zhang Cunjing's troops, 20,000 Zhou Dewei's troops, 30,000 Li Hanzhi's troops, and more than 10,000 Li Ye's troops in Hedong.
That is to say, a whole 130,000 troops in the river are fighting. Li Hanzhi, who was the first to make trouble, took the initiative and had the largest room for activities.
It is obvious that Li Hanzhi and Zhu Wen secretly formed an alliance.
Otherwise, Zhang Cunjing would not have fallen into the quagmire in the river at all, and would directly attack Heyang, Li Hanzhi's old nest, which was close at hand, from Luoyang, which would be more in line with military logic.
The Wang family is really not as good as the generation, and the brothers are just competing for the throne, but they are luring wolves into the house everywhere, creating a situation of chickens and eggs.
Li Ye closed his eyes and pondered for a long time, suddenly opened his eyes, and said to Xue Guangheng: "Find General Gao to see me." ”
After a short time, Gao Xingzhou rushed to the city tower, "The last general will meet Your Majesty." ”
Because of the previous military order, it was strictly forbidden for generals to ask for battle, Gao Xingzhou said no, not to say it, and he knew that he was holding back the fire by looking at his face.
In the last bloody battle in Huazhou, the Shence army suffered heavy losses, but fortunately, Li Yun and Zhou Yunyi gave him the strength to prevent him from being defeated by Han Jian.
"The enemy camp tent is right in front of you, does General Gao have any ideas?" Please be better than excited. Gao Xingzhou's eyes were full of anger, and he half-knelt on the ground: "The last general is willing to lead the soldiers and horses of the headquarters to destroy this jumping rat!" ”
Three thousand against six thousand, still attacking the enemy's camp.
He is confident, Li Ye is not confident, "I will give you another 3,000 guards." ”
"No, the last general only led the headquarters of three thousand, if you can't capture the enemy camp, the last general will come to see you!" Gao Xing Zhou cut the railway.
The young man is vigorous, didn't he lead him into the pit? Li Ye saw his appearance and knew that it was useless to persuade him, so he could only nod, but he secretly regretted in his heart that he shouldn't have teased him.
"I personally cheered for the general!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Accompanied by the sound of majestic drums, Gao Xingzhou led three thousand gods out of the customs.
Immediately provoked a reaction from the enemy battalion.
Li Ye could see frequent movements in the enemy camp from the city tower, and spears were lined up behind the walled trees like reeds.
Gao Xing Zhou was fierce, but he was not a brainless reckless man, and he lined up more than 200 steps in front of the enemy camp.
His men were heavily armoured, with spears and shields, and were not armed with bows and arrows.
The two sides faced each other for a while, and the enemy battalion, with the advantage of troops, took the lead in launching an attack, pouring out two armies from the left and right to surround the perimeter of Gaoxing.
Li Ye originally thought that there were at most 8,000 people in the camp, but now it seems that he has lost his eyes, and there are no less than 6,000 people out of the camp to fight, and there is also a thousand cavalry.
Li Ye couldn't help but pinch a cold sweat for Gao Xingzhou, and asked Ma Kaishan to be ready to support at any time. The enemy cavalry fired a round of cavalry, trying to tear apart the formation.
But Gao Xingzhou's subordinates were all wearing heavy armor and shields, their bows and arrows could not break through the defense, and the cold glow of the spears flickered, so that they did not dare to approach.
The cavalry had a huge advantage over the infantry, but to storm the spear formation in an array was to touch the stone with porcelain.
Seeing that the cavalry could not be effective, the pikemen on the left and right of the enemy army began to attack.
In an instant, the killing sound on the battlefield shook the sky.
Li Ye's arms were so sore, and it was not easy to beat the drum, so he was busy letting the surrounding guards beat together, while he paid close attention to the situation on the battlefield.
The two armies are close to each other, and the strength and weakness can be seen at a glance.
Gao Xingzhou is worthy of being the Hebei general, being attacked left and right, but he still maintains the formation, like a reef in a huge wave.
Although the enemy is also a spearman, it is not a heavy armor.
Li Ye saw that many spears of the Shence Army could easily pierce the enemy, but it was difficult for the enemy's spears to pierce through the heavy armor of the Shence Army.
Gao Xing Zhou took the lead, holding a shield in his left hand and a gun in his right hand, standing at the forefront, like the sharpest minions of a beast, and with every shot he stabbed, a dead soul was born.
The battle was extremely fierce, and the Shence army suffered casualties, but the enemy paid a greater price.
