Wearing the soft armor of an ordinary soldier, he was clean-shaven and bare-chested with two arms, just like a poor peasant soldier. After Liu Wenxiu dressed up like this, no one paid attention to him, so he ran away for his life.
It was quite relaxing, but he didn't expect to meet Li Yuanqing.
Li Yuanqing had met Liu Wenxiu before. He cursed in a low voice, slapped his horse on the back, and several soldiers followed him. They pointed at Liu Wenxiu in the distance and shouted angrily, "That guy is Liu Wenxiu, and we are going to kill him tonight."
Kill him and don't let him escape."
Liu Wenxiu looked back and complained secretly in her heart. Now she was being targeted and her horse was shot. She had to rely on only two legs to escape, unless God was blind.
Liu Wenxiu really didn't want to die. He even escaped the rebellion that year. Could it be possible that he would die at the hands of officers and soldiers? Seeing the horseshoes getting closer and closer, and even seeing the faces of the cavalry, Liu Wenxiu finally made a decision and headed toward
It rolled down the landslide next to it. This scene happened too suddenly because the landslide was very steep. The most important thing is that the place below has always been where local people throw garbage. Dead rats and smelly water are thrown here. Stand far away.
You can smell the stench coming from below, and the smell is worse than that of a latrine.
What kind of person is Liu Wenxiu? As the adopted son of Zhang Xianzhong, he has always been known as a hero and elegant person. He is also a very face-conscious person in the rebel army. Who would have thought that this guy would dare to roll down the slope and end up in a place worse than a latrine?
No more.
Li Yuanqing was not mentally prepared at all, and charged for a while with a cavalry sword. Seeing Liu Wenxiu like this, Li Yuanqing's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and he could not see the slightest bit of joy. Several soldiers behind him were also unwilling to give in. Li Yuanqing quickly dismounted.
He started shouting and said in a deep voice, "Here comes someone, hurry up and chase him, don't run away Liu Wenxiu."
To Li Yuanqing and others, Liu Wenxiu had great military achievements, how could he let the duck in his mouth fly away?
"Hey!" The cavalry quickly dismounted and chased down the slope. This also heralded the end of the Guanxi Town raid. As Liu Wenxiu jumped into the smelly ditch to escape, other rebel soldiers would not continue to resist. Those who fled in all directions also
A four-legged horse could not outrun a four-legged horse. Before dawn, the fighting near Guanxi Town was basically over, and most of the stubborn resisters were killed. For Li Yuanqing, this victory was nothing to brag about, because in the end it was Liu who
Wenxiu ran away while it was dark.
The troops and horses commanded by Liu Wenxiu were almost completely wiped out, and Zhang Cunmeng's hard-working east-west pincer strategy was shattered. Now, Tiemo was truly invincible. Yichuan was heavily besieged, and Yanshui River
As the fighting situation nearby became increasingly clear, Tie Mo finally relaxed. By now, the rogue soldiers had lost the capital to continue fighting. Their morale was sinking again and again, and they were on the verge of collapse.
When Li Yuanqing returned from victory, the morale of the Northern Shanxi Army was greatly boosted. Zhou Dingshan and others all gathered in the commander's tent to discuss the next step of action. Li Yuanqing could not hide his joy, "Superintendent, Liu Wenxiu's front army was simply defeated at the first touch, and the general will take it.
It was easy to get to Guanxi Town. Now that all the threats to the east have been eliminated, only Zhang Cunmeng's troops and horses are left near Ansai City. The general suggested that Zhang Cunmeng's troops should be attacked as soon as possible to avoid long nights and nightmares.
Liu Wenxiu's troops have been annihilated, and if Zhang Cunmeng concentrates on escaping, it will be really difficult for us to stop them."
Tie Mo looked relaxed and listened to the discussions among the people below. After hearing what Li Yuanqing said, he sat up straight and stretched out his hand to signal everyone to quiet down, "Okay, everyone, please be quiet. The current situation is very beneficial to us.
, Zhang Cunmeng's troops have no strength to fight anymore, but they are close to Ansai City, so if they want to escape, they still have a great advantage. However, I have already made arrangements. Even if the rogue soldiers try their best to escape, it will not be that easy.
.”
After pondering for a moment, Tie Mo continued, "The generals will listen to the order and rest for a day today. At midnight tomorrow, the entire army will set out. The target is Zhang Cunmeng's troops and horses. In this battle, we must capture Ansai City in one fell swoop and eliminate as many as possible.
The remaining resistance of the rogue soldiers."
When everyone heard this, they all looked excited and stood up, "Don't worry, Commander, we will fight hard and not give the rogue soldiers an opportunity." The crowd was excited and morale was high. At this time, the officers and soldiers of the Northern Shanxi Army were full of confidence.
, fearless.
In contrast, Zhang Cunmeng's troops can be said to be gloomy. Their morale was already low. When the news came that Liu Wenxiu's troops had been wiped out, their low morale plummeted. Now the peasant army soldiers are like
A basin of water, even if God gives it ten chances, cannot be molded into a mountain. Zhang Cunmeng had already accepted his fate, and Liu Wenxiu's troops could not save it. How could they compete with the officers and soldiers? The east-west pincer attack strategy was broken, and even self-protection was broken.
All the capital is gone, and now it can only be passively beaten.
Yue Lei stood at the front, with a dozen leaders behind him looking dejectedly at the ground. Don't look at the dozen leaders, but in fact many of them couldn't even get a hundred men together. Zhang Cunmeng looked at these leaders who had no fighting spirit.
Peasant army nobles, he let out a long sigh in his heart. They have reached this point, and there is nothing they can't let go of. "I have decided that before the officers and soldiers attack, everyone will withdraw to Ansai City after dawn.
, and then retreat to the Qingyang area. From now on, Yan'an Prefecture belongs to the officers and soldiers."
Yan'an Prefecture belonged to the officers and soldiers, but the rebels were rushed to Qingyang. Originally this was a very embarrassing thing, but when they heard Zhang Cunmeng's retreat order, everyone turned happy, and many even raised their heads suddenly. The dignified leader of the rebels
They have fallen into such a state of poverty. After being hit for days, they have lost the idea of fighting with the officers and soldiers. Although Ansai City is good, it is only a temporary place to stay. With the strength in hand, how can they rely on to defend the city?
Fortress?
After Zhang Cunmeng's order was issued, he waved feebly, and the leaders left in a hurry. Soon after, the army began to prepare for a large-scale retreat. With more than 20,000 people retreating at the same time, it was not possible to just leave. No matter what,
There must always be someone responsible for the rear. Without the rear retreat, it would be a rout. Anyone with some military knowledge knows what the result of a rout is.
But at this time, no one would take the initiative to ask for help. Fools all know that if you stay behind at this time, you will die without any chance of survival. Under the torment of Yue Lei and others, Liu Baoqing from Baoan Prefecture in the north was left behind.
Behind the Palace. Everything was prepared, but the rogue soldiers still did not expect that the offensive of the Northern Shanxi Army would come so quickly. They thought that they had just launched the Battle of Guanxi Town and destroyed Liu Wenxiu in the east. They would not be able to continue in a short time.
Combat.
Unexpectedly, after just one day's rest, more than 8,000 soldiers of the Northern Shanxi Army launched an attack on Zhang Cunmeng's headquarters. More than 3,000 cavalry were responsible for the charge, and the infantry behind them pressed the formation. The hour had not passed, but the scorching sun was already like charcoal, burning the world.
All things. Facing the surging offensive, Liu Baoqing secretly complained, but there was nothing he could do. This was the result of a lottery decision, so he could only blame his own bad luck. Liu Baoqing commanded more than 3,000 people plus more than 4,000 cannon fodder soldiers.
, after forming a square formation, it can be regarded as magnificent, but in fact it is just an appearance.
Zhou Dingshan personally led the cavalry, and three conical formations penetrated Liu Baoqing's phalanx. As soon as they made contact, the phalanx of rogue soldiers was directly pushed away. The formation was like rotten tofu, and collapsed at the first touch. It's no wonder Liu Baoqing was replaced.
Come to lead the troops, the result will be the same.
It was only a matter of time before Liu Baoqing's troops were defeated. However, with Liu Baoqing's interception, it finally bought Zhang Cunmeng's troops time to retreat. Zhang Cunmeng was worthy of being called "non-stick". Since he decided to escape, he no longer thought about the countless remnants.
They divided into several groups and fled towards Ansai City. In order to speed up the retreat, they even ordered to abandon all their luggage.
The peasant army camp was in a mess. In order to slow down the Yunfu cavalry's pursuit, the rogue soldiers tried their best. They not only abandoned their baggage, but also tried their best to destroy the roads. The road leading to Ansai City was destroyed. Liu Baoqing's troops
Still resisting, with his efforts, he has been holding on for half an hour. Facing the endless tactics of the rogue soldiers, Tie Mo showed no signs of anxiety except shaking his head secretly. For him, victory was already within his grasp.
In your hands, it is enough to have as few casualties as possible.
"Dingshan, order your people not to be busy chasing, and concentrate your forces to defeat this group of soldiers and horses at the rear." Tie Mo's order really left Zhou Dingshan speechless. Zhou Dingshan thought about it, even if there is no cavalry to help, as time goes by, this group of peasants
The soldiers and horses behind the army palace had no choice but to be defeated, but chasing Zhang Cunmeng was more important. Seeing Zhou Dingshan's hesitation, Tie Mo put down the telescope in his hand and showed an inexplicable smile, "Dingshan, just don't worry, Zhang Cunmeng
It’s not that easy to escape back.”
Zhou Dingshan nodded and began to order the cavalry to gather into the left and right wings. As a result, Liu Baoqing complained endlessly. He had been holding on for dear life, but now he collapsed. A peasant soldier also wanted to find someone to help him die.
Yes, as soon as I raised my head, I saw a shining cold light passing by, and then I lost consciousness.
Outside the phalanx of rogue soldiers, corpses continued to pile up, like a wall. The rogue soldiers were not heroic, but the gap in strength was too great. No matter how hard they struggled, they could not escape death in the end. With Liu Baoqing being killed,
The entire peasant army formation collapsed, and the cannon fodder soldiers were even more unbearable. Many people lay directly on the ground and shivered, and some of them had already cried. Tie Mo did not make it difficult for these rogue soldiers who surrendered.
On the other side, Zhang Cunmeng ran away desperately. All the way, Zhang Cunmeng's golden soft armor disappeared, and his face was black and purple. He had never been so embarrassed in his life. Zhang Cunmeng fled desperately, but he didn't know that the road was rugged and dangerous.
There is a poplar forest in the southeast of Ansai City. It is midsummer and the poplar forest is lush and green with luxuriant branches and leaves. Walking in the forest, it is extremely cool. This poplar forest covers an area of five miles. At this time, there is a group of people in the forest who are bored.
Enjoying the coolness of the forest, a few people gathered together and kept wiping the knives in their hands, "What on earth is Mr. Wang thinking? I heard that the war over there with the Superintendent was getting fierce, but we actually stayed still and hid in the forest to enjoy the coolness."
"Say less and let Mr. Wang hear it. There will be no good end. The old pockmarked man was not convinced in the last two days and ended up getting twenty army sticks. Who else here can be more capable than the old pockmarked man?
"The other soldier quickly made a sound.
These people are the cavalry of the Ruifeng Battalion. A few days ago, they followed Wang Zuogao to this poplar forest quietly. Since entering the poplar forest, they have begun to become leisurely. In the words of Lao Mazi, how can this be military?
He was transferred here to escape the heat. Lao Mazi felt unhappy and ran to the princess to make noises. As you can imagine, Wang Zuogao had a decisive character and directly gave Lao Mazi twenty army sticks.
Wang Zuoguan's expression was stern, naturally showing the majesty of a superior. Elizabeth, who was watching the battle with the army, felt very depressed, "What are we doing here? We have been hiding for several days."
Faced with Elizabeth's question, Wang Zuogao ignored it. Judging from the time, it should be almost done. In any case, he had great trust in Tie Mo, and this trust was based on a long-term tacit understanding. Tie Mo is a man
, as if he was born for a tough battle. Time passed by, the breeze in the forest blew his face, and suddenly, Wang Zuogang smiled, because what he wanted finally came.
"Report...Report...The supervisor defeated the enemy army and wiped out all the enemy forces to the east of Liu Wenxiu's command. Now Zhang Cunmeng's command has fled towards Ansai City. The enemy's fleeing troops are only a few meters away from us.
There are ten miles..."
Finally, Wang Zuoguan stood up, full of fighting spirit.
The strong summer wind took away countless desolations in the lush greenery. Wang Zuogao stood proudly, holding the long and narrow sword tightly in his hands. As far as his eyes could see, the world was in his hands.
The long wait is just for this moment. These days, Wang Zuoguan looks calm and calm on the surface, but in fact he is also suffering in his heart. Battle reports from the front are constantly coming. It is not all smooth sailing for the supervisor, especially in the last two days, the entire situation
It was out of control and became confusing. Several times, I almost couldn't help but order to rush for help, but luckily I endured it. At this time, I finally heard the news that Zhang Cunmeng's troops had fled. How could I still sit still.
Seeing Wang Zuoguan stand up suddenly, the generals and colonels scattered around consciously came over. They instinctively felt that there was work to be done. Thousands of soldiers began to gather, and the horses slowly gathered. Everyone looked serious and looked heavy.
, in a short period of time, the entire poplar forest was filled with a murderous atmosphere. Wang Zuogao looked at everyone and said in a loud voice, "I want to tell you some good news. The enemy army has been defeated by the governor, and now the rogue soldiers have arrived.
Flee in the direction of the fortress. Now... Everyone listens to the order. Wang orders you to divide your troops into two groups, attack and kill the rogue soldiers along the road west of Baiyang Forest, and eliminate the resistance of the rogue soldiers to the greatest extent. General Zhou
The main force of the cavalry will catch up soon, and we must prevent the peasant army from escaping to Ansai City. From today on, Yan'an Prefecture will have a new owner!"
