Chapter 507, The Battle of Jianzhou
Huo Yunsheng received a secret letter from Luye, and then he lay on the bed for a long time and couldn't sleep. He called another soldier and whispered a few words in his ear, and the soldier quietly went out of the camp with dozens of people.
Huo Yunsheng smiled bitterly, "Wave the flag, ask for benevolence, I have received reliable news, Lord Niu has sent an envoy on the way to Jianzhou, appointing Lin Guanqin as the general of Huaihua, and my position grade has not moved, and I have not mentioned the fact that he has taken away my military power, you should know what this means." General Huaihua is a positive third grade, and I, General Xuanwei, are already half a level lower than Lin Guanqin's strong general, not to mention that he has been promoted again?"
Huo Yunsheng nodded with satisfaction, and said with a wry smile: "Well, I've already thought about it, instead of waiting for someone to move me, it's better for me to strike first, as the saying goes, the first strike is stronger, and the second strike suffers." We originally had fewer troops than Lin Guanqin, and with Hao Zhengtong helping him, we would not be opponents, so in this way, it would be better for us to take the lead, defeat Lin Guanqin, and then surrender to King Wei! Believe that I have healed Jiang Zhenyu's injury, and King Wei does not care about my past!"
Hu Qiuren's eyes rolled, and he looked embarrassed: "Oh, general, it's okay to surrender to King Wei in the past, but there is one thing wrong, your soul-snatching technique is an evil art after all, and King Wei has always boasted that he is from a famous and upright family, and his subordinates have Xiahou Lingyu, Chen Chengshu and others are all from Tongtianguan, and they all hate evil arts and evil ways very much, I am afraid that he will not allow you because of the battle for the portal!"
Hao Shaoqi immediately bowed his hand to Huo Yunsheng and said loudly: "Obey the order! Humble duty will immediately mobilize people!" As he spoke, Hao Shaoqi turned around and strode away from the Chinese military tent and went out to check the soldiers and horses.
There is not much time, Hao Shaoqi has already ordered 3,000 elite soldiers, and came to the Chinese military tent to ask Huo Yunsheng, Huo Yunsheng left the camp with Hao Shaoqi, and the people were named Malekou, and they went straight to Hao Zhengtong Dazhai five miles away in the east by night. Hu Qiuren personally sent Huo Yunsheng and Hao Shaoqi to leave Dazhai until the three thousand military horses went farther and farther away and disappeared into the night. Hu Qiuren looked at the backs of Huo Yunsheng and the others, and suddenly smiled coldly, "General Huo, I'm afraid you will be like a moth to a fire this time, and you will never return! Alas, who asked you to betray King Jiannan!"
Most of the soldiers had followed Huo Yunsheng for many years, and they suddenly whispered, but they didn't expect this Captain Hu to look like a dog, and he actually followed General Huo with Lin Guanqin behind his back. Only a few people came forward and expressed their willingness to obey his orders. Hu Qiuren saw that these soldiers didn't take his words seriously, he couldn't help but be furious, and ordered his own soldiers to go up and catch two halberds, he wanted to kill chickens and monkeys!
Huo Yunsheng shouted, "Brothers, take down Hu Qiuren who betrays the Lord and seeks glory for me!" The soldiers under his command listened to the order of the main general, and they all agreed loudly, and hundreds of officers and soldiers surrounded Hu Qiuren with knives, guns and other weapons. Hu Qiuren's hundreds of soldiers were not convinced, and they also drew their swords and confronted the soldiers on the opposite side.
Huo Yunsheng laughed loudly, turned around and shouted loudly, and a moment later, Huo Yunsheng's personal soldier escorted up a person who was tied up by Wuhua Da, it was the personal soldier sent by Hu Qiuren to deliver a letter to Lin Guanqin. Huo Yunsheng smiled and said: "Hu Qiuren, you didn't expect it, did you? I had already ordered someone to lie on the road, this person had already been captured less than half a mile from the camp, so don't dream that Lin Guanqin will come to save you!"
Huo Yunsheng pressed the knife on his waist with his left hand and sneered: "If you want people to know, unless you don't do it." A few days ago, when you offered me a plan, let me cheat on my illness, hide in the camp and not come out, so that Lin Guanqin easily took 8,000 soldiers and horses from me, I was already doubting your motives. I lied to you again tonight, saying that you should keep the camp, you really can't wait to write a letter to Lin Guanqin to tell the truth, you didn't expect that someone around you would spy on you, right?"
Huo Yunsheng laughed loudly, looking at Hu Qiuren with contempt, Hu Qiuren trembled angrily, "You, you, you...... You're a traitor for glory! You're ......."
Huo Yunsheng opened the letter and read it carefully, his face was happy, and he said to Hao Shaoqi: "King Wei has replied, agreeing that we will rob the camp tonight! It turned out that Huo Yunsheng got up and wrote a letter to Tang Jiusheng before, and sent his own soldiers to ride to the east gate of Jianzhou City, shouted out the captain of the city gate, shot the letter at the head of the city with an arrow, and asked him to present it to King Wei.
Before, Huo Yunsheng guarded against Hu Qiuren, afraid that he would make trouble in the camp, so he deliberately set up a game to deceive him. The three thousand soldiers and horses did leave the camp under the leadership of the two of them, but they had already been lying in wait around the camp and did not move, in case Lin Guanqin really came to rob the camp, he could be caught off guard. The two of them didn't walk half a mile before they had quietly returned from the side gate of the camp. At this time, after dealing with the traitors, Hao Shaoqi was relieved to go out of the camp and lead the troops.
The attacking soldiers and horses outside shouted in unison, demanding that the soldiers and horses in the village surrender immediately. There are few soldiers in the village, and everyone is afraid. Huo Yunsheng lifted the Xuanhua axe and shouted: "Quickly pass my order, launch the chariot, and pick up the shield to protect it!" The archers are ready to fight back immediately!" At the same time, he ordered people to put out the fire, and the sparse bows and arrows in the camp shot out to shoot back.
More than 10,000 men and horses surrounded Huo Yunsheng's Dazhai at night, and Luo Jinrong commanded the soldiers and horses to fire arrows fiercely into the camp on the left flank, preparing to charge after the rain of arrows. On the left side of the camp, the rain of arrows poured down from the sky, which was very amazing. Fortunately, Huo Yunsheng's department was well-equipped, and the soldiers pushed the chariot out in front to resist, and hid behind the giant shield, so that they were not severely injured by the rain of arrows.
He Chao thought for a while, shook his head and said, "It's unlikely, if he leads his troops to rob our camp, we will definitely bump into each other on the way! But we didn't bump into their soldiers and horses, could it be that they fled to Jianzhou to surrender Tang Jiusheng?"
Hao Zhengtong saw that the left flank was lost, and immediately ordered He Chao to lead 2,000 Chinese troops to reinforce it. He Chao led his troops to rush over, but he didn't expect Hao Shaoqi to ignore him at all, and only ordered the soldiers to chase and kill Luo Jinrong's troops, without looking back. Luo Jinrong's troops were defeated by Hao Shaoqi's troops, Luo Jinrong saw that the situation was not good, so he simply abandoned those soldiers and fled back to the Chinese army to see Hao Zhengtong in a big circle.
Seeing that the soldiers and horses of the headquarters were gradually in danger, Hao Shaoqi shouted loudly: "Everyone hold on for a while, the reinforcements of the king of Wei are about to arrive!" Hao Shaoqi's troops desperately resisted the attack from both sides. Huo Yunsheng was in the camp, and seeing from a distance that Hao Shaoqi's soldiers and horses were gradually unable to hold on, Huo Yunsheng was very anxious. was in a panic, and suddenly heard a cannon shot, and a Biao army came out behind Hao Zhengtong's ass.
It turned out that Jin Chengzhang, who couldn't avoid the battle in the deep ditch and high fortress outside the city, got the order of King Wei, and immediately ordered all the soldiers and horses in the headquarters to rush to reinforce Huo Yunsheng and Hao Shaoqi. In the firelight, Jin Chengzhang held a halberd to show off his might, and led his troops to rush east and west, although Jin Chengzhang only had 3,000 soldiers and horses, but his combat effectiveness was very strong, which made Hao Zhengtong very headache.
At this time, the sky was slightly bright, and Hao Zhengtong saw that the situation was very unfavorable to his side, and he also panicked, hoping that Lin Guanqin's reinforcements would come soon. Thousands of soldiers and horses appeared behind He Zhang's company headquarters from Lao Yeling overnight, and the main generals were Chonglai and Sun Jiangdong, who carried sabers again, commanded the army to charge bravely, and defeated He Zhang's company, and He Zhang's company was trampled to death in the chaos.
In the night, the entire battlefield has been disrupted, and the soldiers do not know the generals, and the generals do not know the soldiers. Fortunately, Tang Jiusheng had already made the equipment in advance, and all the troops on his side were wrapped in yellow cloth, so there would be no cannibalism. Outside the entire Jianzhou City, an unprecedented battle unfolded.
