Gathering of Storms (11)
Although the South Gate belongs to the people with extraordinary martial arts, but for such a battle is never seen, I still can't imagine that they will have such a ridiculous thing with the official army, the people's hearts are not together, Rao is so, the South Gate of the joint impact, although the Kang Yu official army can be suppressed, but the South Gate is sharp, the official army is neat, the victory or defeat of this battle is difficult to say. At this time, in the distance, Du Furang led the two armies to come with heavy horses, but when he saw the black and oppressive officers and soldiers surrounding the white and crushed people in a Confucian shirt, the smell of blood wafted for several miles, and the fierceness of the battle can be imagined. But looking at these Confucian shirts, they seem to be people from the South Gate, but they don't know why they fought with Kang Yu. Although Du Furang was young, he was familiar with military books, and he was suspicious, so he immediately sent people to the South Gate Camp to investigate. Kang Yu on the mountain saw Du Furang's general flag, and then sent the deputy general to meet him.
As soon as they met, Du Furang immediately asked: "What is the matter with Kang Chu's army? The Confucian shirts in the formation are the people of the south gate?" The adjutant general responded: "This is to receive an order from the imperial court to exterminate the bandits, and all those who are hundreds of people and those who are armed will be killed." Du Furang was puzzled: "In such a battle, how could the imperial court not send documents to proclaim." But I don't know who the rebels are referred to by the imperial decree?" The deputy general hesitated: "The edict has been issued, but it is the participation of Prime Minister Kou and the emperor, which has been verified, and everything is known only to Kang Xuan." Du Fu frowned, the army was killed, Kang Yu would not see him at this moment, but when he saw the south gate fighting with the official army, he felt inappropriate, and it was even more surprising, and he sent people back to the camp in the eastern suburbs to inform Du Shanggui, and asked the adjutant general: "Who will strike first in this battle?" The adjutant general responded: "We will strike first." Du Furang asked, "Why did you strike first?" and the lieutenant general replied: "The bandits are in the way, and there is no mercy for killing." Du Fu was already displeased, and asked, "Is there any verification?" The adjutant general replied: "This is the original one, just wait for the end of this battle, and Kang Xuan will have an explanation." After all, Du Fu couldn't help it, and shouted: "The military life before the battle." Is such a vague edict true or false? It is really absurd to go to war without waiting for verification, and to disregard the lives of the soldiers, and you must bear the responsibility for such a crime. The lieutenant general said coldly: "You don't need to worry about these, if you help, you will come forward and capture them." If you don't help, leave. ”
After that, without waiting for Duff to let him stay, the lieutenant general had already ridden away. Dufrang felt unusual, and the scouts did not report back the military information, and he was here but he was very uncomfortable to see the South Gate fighting with Kangyu's army. Although there are many Kang Yu's army, the combat power of the south gate is obviously higher than that of the official army, and the official army is well-trained and well-organized on weekdays. The manpower is sufficient, and for every loss of one person at the South Gate, the strength will be one point less, and the officers and soldiers will have one more chance of winning, but in fact, it will be a war of attrition in which both sides are lost. Staring at the scorching battlefield, Duff made him appreciate the cruelty of war for the first time, and it was so shocking. The fantasy and reality are so different that they can't stop the shock in their hearts. Kang Yu deserves to be a handsome talent. The cavalry and infantry were used alternately, attacking the South Gate camp in turn, and then dividing and encircling with cavalry, all in one go, the South Gate formation gradually lost, and Du Fu was worried in his eyes. Nervousness again.
Finally, in the two moments of waiting, more than a thousand lives fell, and Du Furang waited for his father's general order, ordering him to send troops to help Kang Yu fight the bandits. Don't be mistaken. Du Fu Jean was also trembling, not knowing why his father, who had always been cautious, made such a decision, but what he saw day and night was true. I had the heart to go back to the camp and ask, but it was undoubtedly a failure in front of the army, even if it was a father and son, even if it was a royal family, my father would definitely strictly march the military law. After hesitating, Du Fu asked the commander to return to the camp in the eastern suburbs to explain his doubts to his father, along with the south gate. After stabilizing his mind, Du Fu let the leader of the army rush to the south gate, and the battle situation changed for a while, although the south gate was strong, it could no longer support it at this time. In the south, the number of heavily armored forbidden troops is not large, but its impact and defense are the strongest, with the impact of nearly 5,000 heavy cavalry of the two armies of Duf, the south gate began to disperse.
It is precisely because of the dissolution of the south gate that He Jin knows that the general trend has gone, and he no longer bears the responsibility of the commander, but can only sacrifice his life. At the moment, He Jin summoned all the people of the South Gate to the desperate impact of Kang Yu Da Xuan, this move was all over the sky, and the formation was even more chaotic, at this time, the South Gate was less than four or five out of ten when they came, but most of them were the elites of the South Gate, and they were as high as a thousand people. He Jin's summoning was immediately invincible, with countless casualties among the officers and soldiers, and a river of blood, killing all the way to Da Xu. But I saw hundreds of people flying with their sleeves and rushing towards the mountains. In addition to hand-to-hand combat, bows and arrows are no longer suitable for this man. Being able to control the situation and lead the situation in this stalemate killing is what Kang Yu can do, and these details are beyond his care. He Jin's move was not like Lin Bin, he ran all the way, and he was about to come forward in an instant. After thinking about it, Kang Yu ordered the withdrawal of his troops and galloped across the south gate to the east.
Kang Yu's retreat, the infantry and cavalry were orderly before and after, encircling the enemy, destroying the enemy, foreign aid, evacuating the vanguard, the middle army, the rear army, the scattered cavalry, scouts, and heralds, all meticulous, even in the fierce battle, they could still calmly evacuate. He Jin was reluctant to flee, and he started a war without knowing the situation, and Kang Yu's courage was too great. However, with the emperor's appreciation and respect for Kang Yu and Du Shanggui, although he does not have the title of the imperial family, he is no different from the imperial relatives and relatives, so he can appreciate the army and his loyalty is unquestionable. With his attack on Lin Bin, and then attacking him, if this time it was for the South Gate camp, I am afraid that the situation would be even more chaotic. Since leaving the palace, it is the first time to come to this major event, and it is even more difficult to understand the trick. As soon as he thought of this, He Jin immediately ordered the troops to break through to the west, contrary to the official army. As long as he escapes from the attack of the army, he will think about returning to the South Gate camp again. The losses in this battle were huge, both the official army and the South Gate, but he had to plan again. After several miles away from the battlefield, the armies began to clean up their numbers, reorganize, and report on their strength. Except for some of the wounded soldiers who were sent to the Mingzhou camp, there were only more than 11,000 people left beside He Jin, which can be described as a huge loss. Only the stability that came together, the losses of the two cavalry armies in Baoshan were less, there were still more than 3,000 horsemen, and the rest were all members of the South Gate.
He Jin didn't dare to stay, for fear that the South Gate camp would be lost. At that time, all the cavalry of the dispatch department settled the Baoshan army and took another official road to rush to the south gate camp. As soon as the Baoshan army left, He Jin thought that he had just seen the general flag of the camp in the eastern suburbs, and obviously Du Shanggui also knew that he actually participated in the battle, which made him even more puzzled. Even if Kang Yu's more than 30,000 forbidden troops attack the South Gate camp, they will be victorious and undefeated with the current South Gate combat strength. The reason why he sent the Baoshan army back was that he was afraid that Hu Dao would send troops to support him, resulting in a shortage of troops in the South Gate battalion, and now what he wanted to do was to go and see the movements of Du Shanggui, the camp in the eastern suburbs. As soon as the army was reorganized, it encountered Qin Taihe's 6,000 light cavalry. I saw the word Da Hu from afar, but Qin Taihe had never seen it. At that moment, the scout went to inquire, and the two armies were stunned when they learned their identities. Qin Tai and the troops of Guannanmen are more than enough to withdraw, but I am afraid that there is no chance of winning the battle.
He Jin felt that it was reasonable for him to move out of the south gate. But at this time, I was unhappy to see that these armies who did not belong to the imperial court were openly acting recklessly on the royal land. But I knew that it was already chaotic at this time, and it would be even more chaotic if we fought again. At the moment, he talked with Qin Tai and the army with deep internal strength, and proudly promised that there would be no two hearts. Qin Taihe and the adjutant generals and staff officers beside him did not want Qin Taihe to be in danger. The thick blood floating in the air, He Jinzhong's army obviously had just gone through a big battle, and they had to wait for the scouts in front and the flying dragon battalion to transmit back the military information before they could decide. Qin Taihe said in a deep voice: "The situation is unknown, if He Jin had intentions, it would not be like this. I'll go for a while, and if anything goes wrong, the lieutenant will pick it up. Everyone knew that Qin Taihe was resolute, so they had to tell him to be careful.
The generals of the two armies met before the battle, Qin Taihe asked, "What do you want?" He Jin asked rhetorically: "What do you want?" Qin Taihe said: "The imperial army is dispatched, shouldn't I come to take a look?" He Jin immediately said about the big battle just now, Qin Taihe felt that such a bizarre thing could be true. Seeing that although Qin Taihe was shocked, he did not hesitate, obviously not knowing the inside story of Kang Yu's army, so he confirmed the thought in his heart, that is, he said: "In the current chaos, you can do it yourself." "Let's ride back to the army. Qin Taihe said angrily: "I'm afraid of what are you, do you want to come to fight?" He Jin didn't want to answer, but he knew Qin Taihe's temperament, so he had to respond: "You will have a chance." ”
Returning to the army, He Jin immediately ordered the army to march to the camp in the eastern suburbs, and did not have the slightest defense against Qin Taihe. All this is too weird, Qin Taihe also has no clue, so he has to say what the general said, and the staff and staff and deputy generals don't understand. Qin Taihe immediately made a decision and said: "It is a pioneer, no matter how much speculation you have, it is better to take a look." "At that moment, the armies were ordered to go eastward, and within three or four miles, they saw corpses all over the mountains, officers and soldiers, and the people at the south gate, mixed with them, the smell of blood was in the nostrils, and the wails of the undead were everywhere. Although Qin Taihe has been in charge of the army for many years, it is the first time he has seen such a battle, and he is also excited, knowing that the current situation is unusual, and it is impossible for the imperial court to use such a large battle as a cover. At that moment, let the scout general report to the general Shao Fu of Pingtian, and then lead the army forward.
However, it didn't take long for the scouts to report that the officers and soldiers were attacking the South Gate camp, and there was chaos. Qin Taihe was surprised, led the army to take a look, and saw the Kang character Da Hu, which was the Kang Yu army in the western suburbs. The officers and soldiers would actually fight with the South Gate, but no one could have imagined it, even if they were in front of them, it was like a dream. At that moment, Qin Taihe went east to find the beggar camp. But seeing that the beggars were waiting on the other side of the river, they were keeping an eye on the officers and soldiers. Although the camp at the south gate and the camp of the beggars are separated by a river, they are completely different scenes in broad daylight.
The river is not deep, Qin Taihe and the leader stepped forward, and Huang San personally came to pick it up, including the six masters and deputy masters of the Zonghengmen who came to support the beggars earlier. After some inquiry, as soon as the official army came, they attacked the camp at the south gate, Hu Dao led the army, and the south gate was defending with all their might. (To be continued......)
