Chapter 049: Blood Debt and Blood Repayment (5)
By dawn, the fire was still raging, and Zhao Cheng's son, Zhao Jun, finally arrived in Yunzhong County.
The clouds were already in a blazing flame, and Zhao Jun was panicked, as if he was haunted by nightmares.
At this moment, he saw that the remnants of the soldiers around the clouds didn't care about what the military looks like, and they retreated like crazy, Zhao Jun immediately ordered to stop the deserters, and the remnants were assembled in a moment, plus the two thousand iron cavalry he brought, Zhao Jun felt a little at ease, otherwise he really didn't know how to order the three armies to stabilize the situation.
At this time, there was a leader with more than a hundred people about to rush out, Zhao Jun was furious, put aside his sword, pulled his bow and arrow, and then there was an accurate arrow, and the leader fell down in response.
Zhao Jun put down his bow and arrows, shouted and ordered all the military horses to assemble, form three large formations, the chaotic army was defeated and retreated, the most important thing is that the main general is very courageous, if the main general has the courage to put away the remnants, then the defeated army can still be cleaned up, Zhao Jun led the troops for the first time, and there was no urgency, but he gave birth to such courage, and the soldiers began to admire this young general from the heart.
Zhao Jun lined up the troop chariots in the middle, and the cavalry lined up on both sides, this tactic he learned from when he was studying in Liangdi, only to hear him raise his sword and shout: "If there is a retreat, there will be no mercy!" "He was the first to kill back.
The chariot soldiers in the middle and the cavalry on both wings shouted together, and they rushed back like a tsunami, meeting the soldiers who were still in the Liang army.
Although most of these soldiers were defeated soldiers and the formation was also very chaotic, under the instigation of Zhao Jun, everyone had the heart of death, and their combat effectiveness was very different from before, and they were entangled with Liu Debiao's main force and fought in a melee battle.
At this time, the morning light was shining, the autumn rain was misty, the two armies were holding each other, and there was a scuffle, and a shocking shouting of killing suddenly broke out behind Zhao Jun.
Zhao Jun was shocked when he heard this, and when he looked back, he saw a group of Liang army flags fluttering, and almost everywhere he could see was cavalry.
It turned out that Liu Debiao deliberately left an ambush on the periphery before entering the city, which was just right to use at this time!
Liu Debiao's frontal army was in great spirits, and with a horn of charge, the two Liang armies in front and behind directly broke the formation of the Zhao army, and the Zhao army fled.
His soldiers were not so lucky, Liu Debiao arranged the most elite cavalry as a chasing force, and in less than an hour, all the surrounded Zhao troops were killed.
The battlefield fell silent in an instant.
Liu Debiao did not chase and kill, but only watched from a high place steadily, calculating something in his heart.
The Zhao army led hundreds of remnants of the army to retreat all the way, and suddenly a remnant of the army came to report: "The Liang army has surrounded Pingyang, and General Zhao and General Ma Di are both surrounded in Pingyang." The Liang army also divided its troops to reinforce the Yunzhong side, the general should run, otherwise it will be really too late for them to make us dumplings! ”
Zhao Jun was so frightened that his heart was broken, and he hissed and ordered: "Quick, let's get up immediately, bring all the soldiers we can bring along the road, go to Jiuyuan, and make plans after we get there!" ”
By the time the sun rises, the situation will be clear!
Not surprisingly, the remnants of the soldier who reported the news were specially arranged by Liu Debiao, and Zhao Jun's departure directly paved a safe and steady road for his retreat.
In Pingyang City, Zhao Cheng and Ma Di were still optimistic, but suddenly they heard someone report that Mo Jingchun had written a letter to the two of them.
Both of them said disdainfully: "Yes, I started to persuade him to surrender, this way is not working!" ”
When I opened the letter, I realized that Yunzhong had already been burned by Liang Jun! Zhao Chengmian sat on the ground like dead ashes, and the tent was as silent as death.
After reading the letter, Ma Di tried to suppress his anger, and only complained softly to himself: "Childe, he is confused! It's all over, the enemy is cheating him, why can't he see it at all, shouldn't it, Childe has read so many military books, he knows strategy! ”
Zhao Cheng couldn't hide his disappointment, "He will only talk on paper!" I misbelieved this, so much so that I misunderstood state affairs, and I should be damned! ”
Ma Di hurriedly comforted: "The situation is not exhausted! ”
Zhao Cheng suddenly came to his senses, "What do you say?" ”
Ma Di seriously analyzed: "Before I came to Pingyang, some people said that Ulez disobeyed the orders of the Great Khan and attacked Luoyang by surprise, if this battle is left, his prestige will far exceed that of Yao Gongzi, and the Great Khan will never allow this to happen!" If he is defeated, the Great Khan thinks about the safety of Taiyuan, and he must be a teacher! Now that the granary in the cloud has been burned, the class teacher has to do it! ”
"In other words, we only need to hold on for a while, and Binh Duong will definitely be safe and sound!"
Ma Di turned around and said, "That's it! ”
……
At this time, the market in the clouds was burned to a pile of ruins, and the Hu people were panicked, completely losing the previous arrogance and prosperity.
The Hu people are good at fighting, and it is common for tens of thousands of people to be plundered in a war, and tens of thousands of people were killed and wounded. Moreover, for the Hu people, who had a lot of soldiers, the annihilation of the defenders of a county was not enough to make people panic.
But the burning of Yunzhong County hit them too hard.
The Hu people relied on the sky to eat, lived a herdsman life, occupied the whole territory of Shanxi, Henan and Hebei, only learned the Liang people to store grain and goods, hoarding the Hu people's grain and baggage in the clouds, since Zhao Jiuyuan set the capital of Taiyuan, Yunzhong County has always been the place of grain.
Now, Liu Debiao is on fire, and Yunzhong County has almost turned into a pile of ashes.
However, in ten days, the price of food has skyrocketed more than ten times, but this is still priceless!
It is normal for grain prices to soar several times in a day, and private grain merchants are even more closed, but coincidentally, the north wind is approaching, winter is coming, and the Hu people themselves do not cultivate the land, and panic gradually arises on this land. The debt collectors are running around, the debts are fleeing from the east and west, and the Hu people have completely lost their square inches!
At this time, in Liang Yuzhou's camp, a person claiming to be Zhao Jiuyuan's envoy asked to be heard, and Liang Yuzhou said lightly: "Yes." ”
Then let his subordinates arrange according to the etiquette of a country's envoys, and they must not be rude.
The person who came was respectful, holding a festival, neither humble nor arrogant, which made Liang Yuzhou like it very much.
Then respectfully presented Zhao Jiuyuan's national letter, Liang Yuzhou took it and read it carefully: "Zhao Jiuyuan worships Liang Yuzhou, King of Liang: The Great War of All Directions, I am fortunate to see the plan of the king, and I can really be described as a hero out of a young man!" Liang people have a king, it is really a blessing for Liang people! And now a certain rebellious adopted son Ulez defected from our country, and long-distance attack on Jun's Luoyang, Luoyang City was broken, he tortured and killed Liang Junchen up and down more than thousands of mouths, three emperors and five emperors so far, no one has seen anyone cruel more than it! Therefore, from the point of cleaning up the portal, a certain request for the two families to stop the army from now on, and return the people to the pure land of recuperation, what is it? The soldier is fierce, and I hope you will think carefully! ”
"Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think they want to call off the army and ask for peace?" Liang Yuzhou was completely conscious, but there was no expression of excitement on his face.
