Chapter 107: Tarzan leaves
Five days later, in the early morning, Yuan Qi's army was reorganized and ready to set off at any time. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
With the attrition of successive battles and the return of county soldiers from all over the country, Yuan Qi still had 60,000 male soldiers under his command. There are 20,000 of Yuan Qi's direct subordinates, and another 40,000 are Youzhou troops under Yuan Ying's subordinates.
When Yuan Qi gave an order, the 60,000 army once again faced the rising sun and embarked on the journey. What is different from the past is that this time on the march, there is one more thing in the army - a black monument of loyalty, on which is depicted with vermilion lacquer a dense string of names of people who have died in battle.
This is Yuan Qi's proposition, fighting with the Loyal Martyrs' Monument, so that the soldiers under his command can always feel their responsibility, and they will always feel that those brothers who have died in battle are watching them behind them and spurring them forward.
Fat as outside the city, in the camp of the rebels. The news of the capture of Yuyang had already arrived, and Wei You sat behind the handsome case with a dead face, looking at the battle report in front of him, without saying a word, and the silence was a little terrifying.
After a long time, Wei You stood up suddenly, and said gloomily: "Order, the whole army is attacking Feiru, and we must take Feiru today, so that our army has a barrier for self-protection, otherwise, once Yuan Qi leads the army to come, we will die and have no place to be buried." ”
Under Wei You's order, the rebels quickly beat the war drums, and the excitement of the war drums stimulated every rebel.
In the fat city, a sergeant quickly reported the news that Gongsun was entering the clouds and that the rebels were about to attack the city. Gongsun Ruyun pressed the hilt of the sword with his hand, quickly gathered the generals under his command, and went straight to the head of the fat city.
When Gongsun Ruyun and others arrived at the head of the city, the rebels had already lined up and seemed to be about to launch a general attack.
Gongsun Ruyun frowned, and asked Taishan beside him: "Taishan, have you noticed it, the momentum of the rebels today seems to be a little different from the past." ”
Because of the siege of the rebels, the news that Zhang Ju was killed and Yuyang had been recovered had not yet reached the city, and everyone in the city did not understand why the momentum of the rebels suddenly became a little sad.
Taishan pinched his short beard and said with some concern: "Yes, I don't know what the rebels have been stimulated, and they will not stop if they don't break the city." ”
Zhang Wu said loudly: "It doesn't matter if he is imposing or not, wait for me to go out and kill them without leaving a piece of armor!"
Guan Wei hurriedly grabbed Zhang Wu and shouted: "The third brother can't, and listen to the arrangement of Gongsun Taishou and the eldest brother." ”
Zhang Wu is a man who is not afraid of heaven and earth, the only thing he fears is his eldest brother Taishan, after hearing Guan Wei's words, he is no longer shouting, turning his head to look at Taishan, as long as Taishan gives an order, he will immediately lead the army out of the city.
But what disappointed Zhang Wu was that Taishan was not a grandson, and he couldn't be the master of the house. Besides, in the face of the surging rebels, Taishan had no intention of going out of the city to face the enemy. After a deep groan, Taishan shook his head and said: "Third brother can't be reckless, now we can't figure out the situation of the rebels, let's take a look." ”
The rebels marched forward, and with the cheering of war drums, they approached the city of Fat Rucheng step by step. When they were fifty paces away from Feiru City, the rebels' ranks suddenly dispersed and reorganized, and a group of rebels carrying cloud ladders suddenly ran out of the array, and then accelerated their speed and ran towards the city wall of Feiru. This was followed by two groups of rebels holding the ram and heading straight for the gate of Fatru. The sword and shield bearers who were originally standing at the front of the queue all stopped, erected the half-human-high shields, and inserted them heavily into the ground, forming a very strong shield wall, which was obviously set up to block the elite cavalry under Gongsun Ruyun. Behind the shield wall, large groups of rebels emerged, all armed with short knives and light leather armor, undoubtedly the main force of the siege.
Seeing the rebels under the city surging like a tide, Gongsun Ruyun's anger finally broke out, and he was besieged and attacked by the rebels for more than ten days, and the anger in his heart was already flourishing.
Stretching out his hand and pulling out the Zhenyue sword, Gongsun Ruyun said angrily: "Someone, spread that I will order the assembly of military horses, and today we will fight to the death with the rebels!"
After hearing Gongsun Ruyun's words, Taishan's face changed several times one after another! Taishan has always been ambitious, but he is weak and pitiful, so there will be several times to hide in Tibet, wandering away, people with great ambitions often cherish their own lives, Taishan saw Gongsun Ruyun want to fight a decisive battle with the rebels, which is not in line with his wishes, he does not want to lose his life easily, so he will suddenly change color.
Quickly organized the language in his mind, Taishan pulled Gongsun Ruyun and persuaded: "The current form is that the enemy is outnumbered, and Brother Izuyun, as the commander, must not be rash." ”
Throwing off Taishan's arm, how could Gongsun Ruyun still listen to it? If Taishan hadn't insisted on waiting until dawn to fight outside the city, how could Wei Yu have been able to successfully besiege the city? After enduring it for many days, Gongsun Ruyun didn't want to endure it anymore, and shouted angrily: "Taishan! If you still have a bit of a man's blood, you will go out of the city with a certain person today; if you are greedy for life and afraid of death, it is okay, when a certain person goes out of the city to fight, you can do it yourself!"
was told by Gongsun Ruyun, Taishan's face was blue and red for a while, and he muttered speechless. Zhang Wu on the side was already furious, he had a lot of respect for Taishan, how could he tolerate Gongsun Ruyun's cynicism?
Seeing that Taishan was muttering and not speaking, Gongsun Ruyun was not taking care of Taishan, and went straight down to the city to gather military horses. Seeing Gongsun Ruyun turn around and walk down the city, Zhang Wu's black face turned purple with anger, and he roared and shouted: "What does this mean?
"Okay! Don't say it again, Brother Irumo is right, I'm afraid of death. Tarzan interrupted Zhang Wu's roar.
Guan Wei and Zhang Wu looked at Taishan dumbfounded at the same time, they didn't understand how the eldest brother, who had always been in awe, could say the words greed for life and fear of death.
Taishan smiled bitterly and said: "The people are in this troubled world, displaced, and the unkind people are in the wine pond and meat forest. It is necessary to leave a useful body, in order to reorganize the mountains and rivers in the future, and benefit the emperor and the people. The temporary burden of forbearance and humiliation is so insignificant compared to the entire country. ”
These words are beautiful, and they say that fleeing for their lives is a strategic shift. Originally, Taishan's idea was to be able to make miraculous achievements and obtain a relatively high official position at the critical moment of quelling the rebellion, but now it seems that Gongsun Zhuyun is already difficult to protect himself, and the words he said before going down to the city show that he has a lot of resentment against Taishan, and he will definitely not believe in Taishan so much in the future, which prompts Taishan to be distracted.
Taishan's words calmed Guan Wei and Zhang Wu's emotions, although they did not very much agree with the practice of escaping, but Taishan was right, only by saving his life first, can he revive the mountains and rivers in the future, if his life is lost now, what will he talk about later? So the two stopped arguing, and went down the city wall with Taishan, and walked in the other direction.
Don't talk about the whereabouts of the three Taishan brothers for the time being, after Gongsun entered the city of Yunxia, he gathered men and horses, and was about to go out of the city to fight to the death with the rebels, when a small colonel ran over and reported: "General, there are two groups of men and horses outside the city who are rushing to kill the two wings of the rebels." ”
When Gongsun Ruyun heard this, he ordered the cavalry to stand by, and then quickly turned around and returned to the city.
The battlefield outside the city was already a little chaotic at this time, and the rebel siege echelon had temporarily stopped attacking the city and ran to the two wings to support. On the two flanks of the rebels, thousands of men and horses were fighting with the rebels, and the rebels did not expect that someone would attack the two wings at such a critical moment, and they suddenly fell into an unprepared panic.
Gongsun Ruyun looked into the distance at the head of the city, and saw that the one who rushed to kill on the left flank of the rebels was Gan Jing, the commander of the naval army under Yuan Qi, Gan Jing was leading three thousand sailors and the rebels at the moment; After seeing these two people, Gongsun Zhuyun's first feeling was that Yuan Qixian's brother was reliable, much stronger than Taishan, who was full of benevolence and morality. When Gongsun Ruyun returned to the city, he didn't see the figure of the three Taishan brothers, so he knew that Taishan must have led the crowd to leave, and the love of classmates for many years was gone.
Without the extra mind to pay attention to where Mount Tai went, Gongsun Ruyun stood on the city wall and carefully observed the battle under the city, and he found that because of the attack of these two people, the rebel formation was chaotic, and the border between the two wings and the Chinese army was broken. Gongsun Ruyun, who had experienced a hundred battles, quickly caught this flaw, turned back to his fellow brother Gongsun Yue and said: "Second brother, you quickly lead the White Horse Yicong, kill diagonally from the east gate, bypass the rebels' shield array, and directly attack Wei You's Chinese army!"
Gongsun Yue took the order and left.
It didn't take long for Gongsun Yue to come out of the east gate diagonally with the elite cavalry of the White Horse Yicong and rush to the battlefield. Gongsun Ruyun saw very clearly at the head of the city, because of the containment of the two wings, the rebels' Chinese defense was very lax, and Gongsun easily broke through the rebels' front army and killed Wei You's Chinese army.
Wei You still has the style of a general, and when he saw Gongsun Yue coming in chaos, he was not surprised, and commanded the rebels to lay layers of defense in front of the Chinese army to resist Gongsun Yue's sneak attack. Gongsun Yue led the White Horse Yi Cong with the help of the impact of the war horse, in one fell swoop to the rebel army, was about to make a contribution, but was blocked by Wei You, who reacted in time, in the stalemate battle, Gongsun Yue and others' war horse impact was quickly exhausted, and could only fight against the rebels. In this way, Gongsun Yue quickly fell into passivity, after all, no matter how elite Bai Ma Yi is, there are only a few thousand people, and the rebels have tens of thousands of people to protect the Chinese army.
On a battlefield, there was a three-way fight at the same time, which seemed chaotic. From time to time, someone is stabbed and falls from a horse, or is pierced by a cold arrow in the throat. People's shouts and screams are also endless, often followed by screams after a shout...
