On March 24th, several official documents were sent out from Mianchi. Then Tiemo sent troops to Quemen Mountain with Geng Zhongming and Liu Guoneng as generals to threaten Hangu in the east, while Tiemo and Zhou Dingshan led an army of 5,000 in the rear. Northern Shanxi
The army was coming fiercely, and it was impossible for Luo Rucai not to react. After receiving the news that day, he gathered all the nearby soldiers and horses to Quemen Mountain, and named Gu Feilang the general marshal of the world's soldiers and horses, coordinating and dispatching all the soldiers and horses. This time Luo Rucai
However, a death order was issued, and Tie Mo's head must be left in Quemen Mountain.
A war is brewing in Henan, and some people are really happy and some are worried.
Since Tie Mo's order was issued, troops and horses have been mobilized very frequently across Henan in the past few days. In short, from all aspects, it seems that Tie Mo is really going to use a tactic of ambush from all sides to devour Luo Rucai. As for Luo Rucai, right?
He seemed not to see this, and was determined to decide the outcome of the battle with the Northern Shanxi Army.
Gu Feilang gathered his troops and mobilized soldiers and horses from various sources. In a few days, tens of thousands of troops were active in various areas of Quemen Mountain. The clouds of war were pressing on the people in Hejian. Maybe the next moment, they would become the victims of the war.
The unlucky guy.
On the night of March 29th, at Haishi, Zhou Dingshan used his cavalry to raid Xinghua Town in the south of Quemen Mountain.
and Chen Xuan died in the cavalry charge, and all the more than 4,000 people who defended the city fled. After Zhou Dingshan captured Xinghua Town, he did not stop and went directly out of the city to the north. Just when Gu Feilang organized an army to resist Zhou Dingshan's cavalry
, but they did not expect that Zhou Dingshan, the commander of the cavalry, disappeared in the vast Quemen Highlands. Zhou Dingshan and his more than 3,000 cavalrymen really disappeared. They did not go to Beilin Town near Quemen Mountain, let alone Xin'an. They waited until dawn
, this elite cavalry was still not found. Overnight, this cavalry attacked Xinghua Town and disappeared out of thin air.
With three thousand cavalry, you may not be afraid of a head-on confrontation, but when you can't find this cavalry, you will feel a deep sense of crisis, as if you are being stared at by a poisonous snake. Gu Feilang panicked, and Qiao Yan also felt uneasy.
, after everyone discussed it, they were strictly ordered not to send troops to plunder places easily, but to assemble in large groups to prevent the cavalry of the Northern Shanxi Army from having a chance to break through. Gu Feilang's side seemed to be facing a formidable enemy, but Tie Mo's troops to the south had
The action was taken, the day after Zhou Dingshan raided Xinghua Town and mysteriously disappeared. Tie Mo led the remaining several hundred soldiers and horses into Dongguang Town. On the same day, Orger led an army of nearly 10,000 and also approached Dongguang Town. In just one day,
The small Dongguang Town actually gathered troops from Tie Mo, Orge and Ding Luyan. Together, there were more than 20,000 people. I thought that more than 20,000 people would take advantage of the opportunity to garrison in Xinghua Town.
Well, who would have thought that Tie Mo would wave his flag, and 20,000 troops would march directly out of Dongguang Town and storm Nansong Town.
Nansong Town, also known as Nansong Ancient City, is located in the south of Han Valley, close to Quemen Mountain. Tie Mo led Ding Luyan and Orge to storm Nansong Town. Nansong Town's guard generals Wu Neng, Kou Shen and others were unable to respond. In addition,
Tie Mo was well prepared and used a strategy of combining inside and outside to break through the north and south gates. After two hours of fierce fighting, Wu Neng was killed and Kou Shen led the remaining troops to surrender. By the end of the 30th day, the entire town of Nansong fell.
When Nansong Town fell, Luo Rucai, who was in Hangu, immediately panicked. Now even a fool knew how despicable Tie Mo was. He used various methods to lure most of Luo Rucai's troops to Quemen Mountain, waiting for everyone to think
When it was time to decide the outcome in Quemen Mountain, he suddenly attacked Hangu, which was extremely cunning. Of course, what worried Luo Rucai was the elite cavalry of Zhou Dingshan who mysteriously disappeared in Quemen Mountain. If
That cavalry was coming for Hangu. With Zhou Dingshan's military capabilities and the large army under Tie Mo's command, could Hangu be saved?
Since most of the troops were invested in Quemen Mountain, the entire territory of Hangu was very empty. With these people defending Hangu City, Luo Rucai had no confidence at all.
Luo Rucai has been on the battlefield for many years, and he still has basic military knowledge. Since there is no need to defend Hangu, he should give up decisively. On that day, Luo Rucai ordered the abandonment of Hangu, and all the troops in Hangu moved closer to the town of Quemenshanjing in the west. From then on,
On their way from Hangu to Jingcheng Town, they had to cross the Fuyang River. At night, Luo Rucai's troops arrived at the Fuyang River. In order to buy time, they had to cross the river overnight, but they never thought that Liu Guoneng and others had been waiting at the Fuyang River for a long time.
Luo Rucai's troops were halfway across the river. Liu Guoneng ordered his soldiers to fire arrows to stop the enemy. Arrows rained down for a while. Luo Rucai's soldiers and horses suffered heavy casualties in the river. After a while, the corpses filled the Fuyang River, which was not very wide.
When Liu Guoneng's troops launched the attack, Luo Rucai was a little stunned. He didn't know how Liu Guoneng's troops appeared in the Fuyang River area, because he didn't get any information before that. There were eight of Liu Guoneng's troops.
How could more than a thousand people hide it from everyone? Luo Rucai couldn't figure it out, and Gu Feilang and others couldn't figure it out even more, but the method Liu Guoneng used to appear in the Fuyang River area was not surprising. Last night, Zhou Dingshan raided Xinghua Town, and the entire
Xinghua Town was in chaos, and the remnants of Xinghua Town's soldiers and the people all fled in chaos. Liu Guoneng just asked his soldiers and horses to change into civilian clothes and successfully evaded everyone's attention.
As for coming to Fuyang River, he didn't wait for Luo Rucai, but because of other reasons, Luo Rucai met Liu Guoneng, so he could only be considered unlucky.
Tie Mo is not a god, and Wang Zuoguan is not a god either. It is impossible for them to predict the enemy at every step, and it is even more impossible to know whether Luo Rucai will abandon the city. As for when Luo Rucai will arrive at Fuyang River, it is even harder to know.
Liu Guoneng was a blind cat who met a dead mouse, but Luo Rucai didn't think so. He thought Liu Guoneng was coming specifically for him. He was so panicked that he ordered the army stationed at Quemen Mountain to come to the rescue.
.
On the first day of April, the sun shone all over the earth. At this time, news came out that Liu Guoneng's troops had appeared in the Fuyang River area. At the same time, Tie Mo led his troops to the north, and he cooperated with Liu Guoneng to join forces in Fuyang River and devour Luo Rucai's army.
Geng Zhongming and others, who had been stationary for many days, also took action, and all troops approached Quemen Mountain.
Now, Gu Feilang has to think more about rescuing Fuyang River. Zhou Dingshan's cavalry hasn't been found yet. If he sends his troops out, if they encounter Zhou Dingshan's elite cavalry, they probably won't be able to reach Fuyang River and will be killed.
The Northern Shanxi Army was defeated. But if too many troops were sent, the reinforcements would naturally be able to reach the Fuyang River safely. But what if Geng Zhongming and others took the opportunity to attack Quemen Mountain? The current situation really put Gu Feilang in a dilemma, and
, Gu Feilang also has his own selfish motives. If Luo Rucai dies and Wang Deding is gone, then who else can compete with him and Gu Feilang for power?
In the face of various interests, Gu Feilang hesitated. Even if Qiao Yan and others came to make a noise, it would still not help, because what Gu Feilang said was not unreasonable. You sent fewer people to deliver food to the cavalry of the Northern Shanxi Army.
, sent too many soldiers and horses, but could not stop the soldiers and horses from all walks of life to attack Quemen Mountain. After hesitation, the reinforcements were postponed, and it was not until the first day of April that Gu Feilang ordered Zheng Zhirui and Tang Chang to
Zhang Xiong and Ji Wenbing led nearly 30,000 troops to the Fuyang River. Unfortunately, at this time, Luo Rucai's less than 8,000 remaining soldiers had been trapped and died in the Fuyang River area by Tie Mo and Liu Guoneng.
As for the so-called reinforcements, they were actually just a formality. Everyone knew how late the reinforcements arrived. Luo Rucai would have died seven or eight times waiting for the reinforcements to arrive at Fuyang River.
Tonight, there were stars all over the sky, but there was no moonlight. Young Cao Cao, Luo Rucai, was holding a steel knife and lying under a big willow tree with a desolate look on his face. Looking at the stars in the sky, his heart was in confusion. His confidant Wang Deding died, and his brother-in-law Wang Li also died.
Now even he himself is in a desperate situation. Luo Rucai is not a fool. He has been waiting in the Fuyang River area for twelve hours, but during this long time, no reinforcements have come. From Quemen Mountain to Fuyang River, there is no
It's too far. As long as you are determined to rescue, you should climb to Fuyang River. Why haven't the reinforcements arrived yet? Someone must be unwilling to send reinforcements. Thinking of this, Luo Ru raised his hand and knocked on his forehead, with tears in his eyes.
Dropping tears, why did the brother who ate from the same pot treat him like this? Is power really more important than family ties?
Luo Rucai waited quietly for death. He didn't know why Tie Mo and Liu Guoneng still didn't order a fierce attack. With the morale of their men, Luo Rucai would be killed in Fuyang River with just one charge from the officers and soldiers.
Luo Rucai is definitely going to die, but not now. Since we know that the rebels are fighting for power and have many contradictions, why not make good use of it? At least letting Luo Rucai live now is more beneficial to us. Since there are two tigers on the mountain, why not let them go first?
What if the tigers fight each other for a while and wait until the two tigers are tired before killing them?
That night, there were many torches along the Fuyang River. The morale of Luo Rucai's remaining soldiers was low, and they had no intention of attacking Fuyang River again. At midnight, in the dead of night, under the pitch-black night, Tie Mo and Liu Guoneng broke out of camp at the same time, with tens of thousands of troops at the same time.
Heading north. That same night, except for Geng Zhongming's troops who continued to be stationed near Xinghua Town, the rest led their troops to bypass Quemen Mountain and go straight to Xiao Town in the north.
The battle situation near Quemen Mountain affected Li Zicheng's heart. When the news of the battle came, Li Zicheng was greatly surprised. He never dreamed that Luo Ru would fall into Tie Mo's heavy siege so quickly. When Li Zicheng thought about it, Luo Ru was the one who died.
It’s decided, there are also mysterious cavalry who disappeared in Quemen Mountain. Who knows where they will suddenly come out, maybe behind Quemen Mountain, maybe next to Luo Rucai. In short, as soon as the cavalry appears, it will be the day when Luo Rucai’s power is defeated.
.I have heard that Tie Mo is a god in his military skills, but I never thought that he could use three thousand cavalry so well. Cavalry is the god of death on the battlefield. The strength of cavalry lies in its ferocity and speed. More than three thousand cavalry are in a head-on confrontation.
If you don't have the advantage, then you can hide and wait for opportunities to eat people. Being able to use the cavalry as assassins can be regarded as learning a trick from Tie Mo.
Just when Li Zicheng was estimating when Luo Rucai would die and when the Northern Jin army would completely defeat Luo Rucai's army, he did not expect that a conspiracy was coming towards him.
At the end of the second lunar month of July, the area around the Fuling River was extremely quiet, with cicadas chirping constantly in the poplar groves on both sides. The river was slow, like a clear curtain in the night. On the south bank of the Fuling River, the peasant army camp stretched for ten miles. Judging from the size and number of camps, only the Fuling River
It is estimated that nearly 40,000 peasant troops are stationed along the coast. Is such a huge number just to guard the Fuling River? Of course not. Li Zicheng is waiting. As soon as the time is right, he will give an order and lead Zheng Guosong, Li Yan and others.
With these tens of thousands of troops, they successfully occupied a large area of land in northern Henan.
As Luo Rucai's forces gathered in Quemen Mountain, most of the imperial troops were attracted there, so the Fuling River front line has been very quiet recently. Not to mention the ordinary peasant soldiers, even Zheng Guosong has become a little relaxed.
Near dawn, when people sleep most comfortably, an army of more than a thousand people appeared at Qingguang Bridge in the middle of the Fuling River. At this time, there were more than a dozen peasant troops stationed at Qingguang Bridge. Those peasant troops were loose and some
People were still dozing, and no surprise, these peasant soldiers died silently at the bridge. After the thousand-man army occupied the Qingguang Bridge, they walked up the stone steps from the bridge to the foot of the bridge. The leading general gave an order.
Next, everyone dived into the water one after another, without making too much noise during the whole process.
At the beginning of Mao Shi, a trace of fish belly white appeared on the horizon, and the peasant army camp was still sleeping, but an inexplicable piercing noise came, and a strange soldier and horse dressed in black crawled out from the Fuling River behind them, and they crossed the perimeter
The military tent rushed directly towards the large circular tent closest to the Fuling River. As those people ran, they used various methods to set fire to it. For a while, the entire camp fell into chaos, and they saw the soldiers and horses that sneaked into the camp.
Running towards the big tent, many peasant army leaders shouted. They stopped putting out the fire and all rushed towards the big tent, "Protect the big leader...Protect the big leader..."
It’s no wonder that the leaders were panicking, because the people in the big tent were too important. The person sleeping here was Zheng Guosong, Li Zicheng’s confidant general, whose status was second only to Li Zicheng and Li Yan. There was a disturbance in the camp, and Zheng Guosong quickly
He woke up, took off the steel knife in the tent, put on his clothes and ran out. At this time, the sound of killing was loud outside the tent. Zheng Guosong rushed out of the tent and met a strong man with a gun.
He was wearing a bright silver gun, wearing tight black clothes, his eyes were wide open, and the corners of his mouth were upturned. Seeing this person, Zheng Guosong was so frightened that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven. Isn't this gratifying? Since the Northern Shanxi Army arrived in Henan, Zheng Guosong
Fortunately, it seemed like he disappeared. I didn't expect this bastard to appear here.
Shang Kexi's bravery was well known to everyone. Zheng Guosong would not be stupid enough to fight with Shang Kexi and immediately infiltrated into the soldiers like a donkey. In order to save his life, Zheng Guosong even gave up his face. This made Shang Kexi
He was greatly surprised. He knew Zheng Guosong's ability. If Zheng Guosong was not killed today, even if the army wanted to capture Fuling River, it would suffer heavy casualties.
Seeing that Zheng Guosong was about to escape, Shang Kexi yelled, "Brothers, don't worry about anything else. Follow me and kill Zheng Guosong first. You must not let him escape."
Shang Kexi was determined to kill Zheng Guosong, and the peasant soldiers tried their best to stop him. However, Shang Kexi was extremely brave and had no generals under his command. He actually made Zheng Guosong extremely embarrassed. Zheng Guosong panicked and led his soldiers to the north.
, until we came to the Fuling River. Considering that Zheng Guosong was born in Loess Slope in northern Shaanxi, he could only wade through more than ten small ditches, so you can imagine how poor the water properties are.
