－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

Yang Xi, who was standing on the city gate tower and watching, saw a huge fire burning in the sky about five or six miles away from Tongguan City. His hanging heart was a little relieved. He knew that the rebels must have been sniped. Li Fudou

The men he led were indeed elite troops, and they succeeded in ambushing several times in succession.

Originally, Yang Xi wanted to personally lead his troops out of the city to set up an ambush. He felt that with his knowledge and familiarity with special operations, he would be able to set up an ambush very well. Even if he got close, the rebels would not notice anything strange. His specialty was

This. But doing so is inconsistent with his identity. Moreover, these sergeants are not the specially trained warriors that he personally brought out in later generations, so they cannot fully understand his intentions.

After much deliberation, Lee Ford was finally asked to carry out this task.

Running all the way from Chang'an to Tongguan, among the three thousand sergeants led by Li Fudou and Liu Guangting, few of them fell behind or were exhausted, and the queues could remain basically orderly after running continuously. From this point of view, Yang Xineng could

It can be seen that this is an army whose combat effectiveness can be described as "elite". It has good military quality and will definitely perform well in battle. Therefore, the task of setting up an ambush to deceive the enemy is handed over to Li Fudd's men.

.

Yang Xi was not disappointed in the end, Li Fudou brought him a surprise.

It was almost noon at this time, and the sun was scorching very hot. The blazing fire in the valley in the distance made people feel even hotter! However, although the fire in the distance gave people a feeling of heat, it made people feel hotter.

People feel comfortable!

The fourth batch of sergeants guarding the city had just been replaced. Many people felt inexplicable fear when they saw the fire in the distance, because yesterday they were attacked by the rebel fire, which resulted in a tragedy with heavy casualties. Especially

It was the leading generals, even Ge Shuhan, who would never forget the fire in the pass yesterday.

But today's fire gave them a feeling of elation.

The constant screams of men and horses in the fire proved that many rebel soldiers were caught in the sea of ​​​​fire!

"Tit for retaliation", today's fire is a kind of revenge for yesterday's fire. Although this kind of revenge is not proportional, it at least caused a certain degree of blow to the opponent. The ambush was successful and the city was destroyed.

The generals who were watching felt an indescribable pleasure.

Yang Xi, who had never suffered yesterday's tragic defeat, did not have the same fear of fire as other generals. The constant screams gave him a sense of accomplishment, a sense of accomplishment born from killing the enemy. Although he knew

This is very cruel. Those soldiers who were burned to death were also soldiers of the Tang Dynasty half a year ago, but now they are the enemies of the Tang Dynasty. Unless they surrender, they can only be greeted with death.

You cannot have compassion on the battlefield, otherwise you may be the one who dies and the great country is destroyed.

Precisely because he knows the cruelty of life-and-death war, Yang Xi will not bear to hear the enemy's screams, and he will even deliver another fatal blow. He is happy to see any scene that is beneficial to his own side, and the fire

He watched the fight between the two teams here intently. It could also be said that this was the first time he saw the fighting scene in the cold weapon era. Although it was a bit far away, he could still vaguely see it clearly.

Li Fudou has already led his troops to kill the hundreds of rebel soldiers who were blocked by the fire in the direction of Tongguan at the end of the canyon!

Judging from what we could vaguely see, we had achieved an overwhelming victory.

The rebel army whose return was blocked by fire was being charged and killed by the troops led by Li Fudd and his deputy general Wang Yaguang. The situation of the battle was one-sided.

Because the fire has blocked the rebels' path, there is no need to hide any actions. Whether it is Tongguan City in the Han Dynasty or Tongguan City in the Sui Dynasty where Yang Xi is standing, the military drums are beating desperately to fight for our own side.

The sergeant cheered.

Although the sun was shining brightly, the naked drummer was still beating very vigorously. The loud sound of the drum spread to more than ten miles away, mixed with the sounds of fighting and shouting, and continued to echo in the canyons and mountain peaks.

, and be further amplified!

At this time, the morale of Li Fudd and his soldiers was almost at its peak. They successfully succeeded in two consecutive ambushes, and could focus on encircling and suppressing some of the rebels who were blocked by the fire, regardless of the rebels' follow-up troops. With high morale, they

On the slightly wider valley outside the canyon, an annihilation operation was launched against the rebel outpost that was blocked by the fire.

The morale of the two pairs of people is completely incomparable, and the outcome can already be judged.

Not to mention morale, in terms of numbers, the men and horses led by Li Fufu and Wang Yaguang had the advantage. The rebel outposts only had more than 800 horses. The Tang army that outflanked them had about 1,500 horses in two directions, which was almost twice as many as the opponent.

, not to mention that the rebels who were cut off by the fire had lost their fighting spirit and only charged for a while. After a group of sergeants were killed, the rest of the rebels dismounted and surrendered.

The rebels and horses were also the original Tang army, but they just followed An Lushan and started the rebellion.

At a disadvantage, surrender is the right thing to do. Except for more than a hundred people who were killed or wounded, the other rebel soldiers were all taken as prisoners.

At this time, Yang Xi, who had observed the general progress of the war, had already sent a message to Li Fudou and Wang Yaguang to lead their troops to withdraw into Hantongguan City, and together with Pang Zhong, defend Hantongguan City!

Pang Zhong witnessed with his own eyes that Li Fudou led his army to fight two beautiful ambush battles in just a few hours at Tongguan City in Han Dynasty, achieving brilliant results at a very small cost, and he couldn't help but admire him. In Li Fudou's department

When he led the captives back with great vigor and high spirits, he opened the east gate of Guancheng early, brought Li Fudou's troops into the city, and expressed his admiration with respectful courtesy.

Pang Zhong was already regretting that when Yang Xi assigned the task, he did not ask for orders to lead his troops to set up an ambush, otherwise the military merit worn on Li Fudou would have been his. The main responsibility for Lingbao's defeat in the battle was Ge Shuhan's, but they

The subordinate generals also have responsibilities. If they win a battle right away, not only will they be able to atone for their sins, but they will also feel better and not be so depressed.

However, the consecutive victories won by Li Fudou's troops are still very morale-boosting. The morale of Pang Zhong's troops, who just suffered a defeat yesterday, was also greatly shaken. The dejection on the faces of the soldiers was mostly eliminated, and their lost fighting spirit was also restored a lot.

If Li Fudou was out of troops just now, Pang Zhong would probably lead his army to rescue them quickly.

After Li Fude's troops entered the city, they immediately sent the battle report to Yang Xi and Ge Shuhan who were guarding Tongguan City in Sui Dynasty.

After receiving the specific battle report, Yang Xi immediately ordered that the battle report be sent to Chang'an at the fastest speed of 600 miles.
