Liu Guoneng's guess was not wrong. Withdrawing the Nancheng garrison would create an opportunity for the rogue bandits to capture the Nancheng Gate. As long as the city gate was breached, Shangguan Yi would definitely invest most of his troops in like a mad dog. By then, the ambush in the city would be
If they appear suddenly again, the bandits will be caught off guard and completely entangle Shangguanyi's troops. It will not be easy for Shangguanyi to retreat even if he wants to.
Shangguanyi's offense is to attack while defending. After dealing with the Northern Shanxi Army for so many years, Shangguanyi has learned nothing else, but he has learned to leave himself a way out in everything. Now, no matter who Shangguanyi fights, every time
What I was thinking about was not how to win, but how to retreat. I have been beaten by the Northern Shanxi Army countless times over the years. Many times, the defeat was not caused by a weak attack, but by a poor retreat.
As Nancheng's defenders withdrew some of their troops, Nancheng's defense pressure increased sharply, and the rogue bandits' attacks became much sharper. This gave Shangguanyi the illusion that the Ruyang defenders had shown signs of decline.
When the battle reached You, both sides stopped fighting, but how long could this calm last? As soon as dawn dawned the next day, the rogue army rushed towards Ruyang City. This time, Shangguan Yi deliberately strengthened his attack on the south gate.
Dozens of city-carrying vehicles hit each other one after another, and the rumbling sound was shocking. With the continuous efforts of the bandits, the South City Gate was finally knocked down, and the two sides started a fierce fight in the South City Gate. The South City Gate collapsed, giving people
The rogue bandits received a shot in the arm, which also gave the rogue bandit army the hope of retaking Ruyang City. At this time, even the most conservative people could not contain their excitement. Shangguan Yi saw the South City Gate fall.
For a moment, I wanted to jump off my horse, "The rear army immediately moved forward and defeated the Nancheng defenders as quickly as possible, haha... I finally captured Ruyang City, and our army also has a stable place to live."
.”
The city gate collapsed, and there was no need to bleed at the top of the city anymore. In Shangguan Yi's mind, Ruyang City was within easy reach. Excited rogue soldiers poured into the gate one after another. At this time, even if the Ruyang defenders were tenacious, they would still be able to win.
It was impossible to resist the army of rogue bandits entering Ruyang City. At the beginning of the month, the defenders of Nancheng were defeated, and the rogue bandits successfully broke through the doorway and began to penetrate deeper into the city. At this time, Shangguan Yi had no reservations anymore, and all his troops were thrown into the battlefield.
The purpose was to control Ruyang in his own hands as quickly as possible. For a time, Ruyang City was full of rogues, and the two sides fought repeatedly in every corner of the city.
Ruyang seems to belong to the rogues, at least that's what Shangguan Yi thinks. Ruyang has insufficient troops to begin with. Without the city wall as a support, how can they compete for superiority? As long as our side fights steadily, it will only take time to wipe out the Ruyang defenders.
Just a problem.
Capturing Ruyang was Shangguanyi's first victory over Liu Guoneng in his life. For Shangguanyi, Liu Guoneng was a nightmare. This guy was so terrifying whether he was commanding on the battlefield or leading troops in battle. After the rogues captured the southern city wall, everything
The progress was going smoothly, good news came from everywhere, and the strong military advantage allowed the bandits to keep advancing. The officers and soldiers could only retreat one after another, but Shangguan Yi did not notice that so far, the officers and soldiers had not organized a decent counterattack.
When had the defense organized by Liu Guoneng been so incompetent? But Shangguan Yi, who was so overwhelmed by the victory, did not notice this at all. What he wanted now was to attack and attack again until he captured the entire Ruyang City.
When the bandits approached Beicheng, it was already the end. As soon as they crossed Nanshi Street, the main street in the city, the bandits suddenly encountered a tenacious resistance. Many soldiers came out from the houses on both sides. Each of these people were like wolves and tigers, full of energy.
, it looked like a new force that had been resting for a long time. The bandit army was attacked head-on, and many people were directly hit by the sudden blow. Why did so many people suddenly appear in Beicheng? For a time, the bandit attacks from all directions were countered, and
As more and more officers and soldiers came out, the bandits were beaten back steadily. Especially the troops on the east route, which had been the smoothest attack before, were severely damaged.
There were good news before, but now there are fires everywhere. Shangguan Yi's mouth is half open, his head is buzzing, and he can't figure out what's going on. "What the hell is going on? What went wrong?"
"Report... report... Leader Pang is surrounded by enemy troops in the west. The officers and soldiers are outflanking him from behind. Leader Pang's troops are in great danger. Please withdraw from the west gate!" The deputy general's words were like a heavy hammer.
He hit Shangguan Yi hard on the head.
All of Shangguan Yi's doubts were solved. As soon as he figured out the joints, Shangguan Yi had the urge to cry. He had been careful for so long, but in the end he fell into Liu Guoneng's trap. God, bastard, do you think this is just Shangguan?
Is Yi unhappy? Why does it have to be like this? In fact, as soon as he heard about the situation in the west, Shangguan Yi knew that Liu Guoneng and Sun Chuanting had dug another big hole. The worst thing was that he jumped into it excitedly.
Shi Kenan is the vanguard general under Cao Wenzhao. One is Shi Kenan and the other is Huyan Baoqing. Cao Wenzhao is known as the two vanguards. It is not a major military transfer, and Shi Kenan generally will not leave. Because Cao Wenzhao relies on Shi Kenan many times.
Impact. Shi Kenan actually came to Ruyang City, but what about Huyan Baoqing? Sure enough, it didn’t take long for the bandits who entered Ruyang City to find Huyan Baoqing. The bandits responsible for attacking the central street suffered from Huyan Baoqing.
Qing's troops launched the most violent counterattack. An infantry group armed with thick shields cut off the advancing bandits in the middle. Their bows and arrows were equipped with trebuchets hidden in the dark, causing immeasurable damage to the peasant army.
Huyan Baoqing's command was not as fierce as Shi Kenan's, but he was definitely more sinister than Shi Kenan. Just like now, he did not give the bandits a chance to resist desperately. He used fire on the outside and held back with shield soldiers from behind, pouring out all the arrows and ammunition.
, the rebels without cover had no choice but to be slaughtered and score points. In just half an hour, Central Street turned into a slaughterhouse. After gaining a decisive advantage, Huyan Baoqing ordered his troops to crush them bit by bit, ruthlessly.
Harvesting the lives of the rebels. Under Huyan Baoqing's ruthless fighting style, the confidence of many rogue soldiers collapsed after being beaten. When they heard that Huyan Baoqing was coming, the first reaction of most people was to run.
As Huyan Baoqing and Shi Kenan led the troops to fight out, the officers and soldiers hidden in Ruyang City suddenly emerged. In order to deceive the soldiers and horses of Huangcheng Mountain, these soldiers and horses of the Northern Shanxi Army entered the vicinity of Ruyang in disguise. The day before yesterday, Ruyang
The reason why the city gates are closed tightly is actually not because they are afraid of rogue bandits. The four gates are closed tightly just to prevent the news from leaking out. After all, once these soldiers and horses lurk into Ruyang City, it is impossible not to be discovered, so in the end
The safe way was to close the four doors tightly and block the news. Poor Shangguanyi thought it was a sign of Ruyang's lack of troops, and then he excitedly ordered the army to besiege Ruyang.
When the main force of the Northern Shanxi Army joined the battle, the officers and soldiers no longer had much disadvantage in terms of total strength, and even had local advantages. For a time, the rogue bandits became full of loopholes, and messages asking for help were everywhere. By this time, Shangguan Yi had already
They no longer wanted to capture Ruyang City, but thought more about how to quickly retreat to Huangcheng Mountain. The officers and soldiers tried every means to attract the Huangcheng Mountain army to Ruyang City. It was impossible not to have a follow-up plan. "Withdraw, order all troops and horses to be withdrawn."
Evacuate outside the city and rush back to Huangcheng Mountain as quickly as possible."
Shangguan Yi did not hesitate at all, but for an army of tens of thousands of rogue bandits, it was not that easy to retreat. The soldiers of the Northern Shanxi Army were bitten to death, and there were not many rogue bandit cavalry. The two sides continued to fight from Ruyang City.
Arrive at Qidaopo in the north. The Northern Jin army pursued them closely, biting the rebels with all their strength, causing the rebels to retreat at a snail's pace. With the arrival of the cavalry, Shangguanyi's Huangchengshan army was completely defeated. Thousands of cavalrymen
Running together with overwhelming momentum, looking at the familiar face among the cavalry, Shangguan Yi felt bitter in his heart.
It turned out to be Sun Chuanting. Shangguan Yi's defeat this time was really not unjust at all. I didn't expect that Sun Chuanting, the governor of Henan, would go to the battlefield.
The cavalry rushed over, but the rogues had no power to resist. Facing the cavalry's sharp pursuit, many collapsed rogue soldiers chose to kneel down and surrender. No matter how fast a person ran, he could not outrun the cavalry. Thinking on two legs
He was about to run back to Huangcheng Mountain, but he was exhausted even if he was not killed. Sun Chuanting stopped his horse and looked ahead, "Order the soldiers to ignore the surrendering troops and go around directly. They must bite Shangguanyi's troops and horses.
We must buy enough time to capture the Huangcheng Mountain Pass."
"Don't worry, Mr. Sun." Following Liu Guoneng's personal order, a strange scene appeared on the battlefield. The surrendered bandit soldiers knelt on the ground for a long time, but no one came to collect their weapons. When they looked up again, all the officers and soldiers had already rushed to the front.
But even so, those rogue soldiers who surrendered did not run away, but sat there obediently waiting for the officers and soldiers to turn around.
Shangguan Yi secretly screamed in pain. The officers and soldiers had taken medicine. They kept staring at the Chinese army chasing him without giving him a chance to breathe. He thought that the large number of troops surrendering would delay a little time. Who would have thought that Sun Chuanting and Liu Guo could do this?
Decisive, he ignored the surrender. Shangguan Yi did not dare to stop at all, and still strictly ordered his troops to flee north as hard as possible. In the evening, the remnants of the rogue soldiers finally fled back to the Huangcheng Mountain Pass, but it was not Shangguan Yi who greeted him.
It was a soldier, but a young man carrying a ghost-headed sword, "Hahahaha... Shangguanyi, you are a little late. Cao really wants to thank you for making Huangcheng Mountain so stable."
.”
Hum, Shangguan Yi's head is about to explode. It's over. Huangcheng Mountain is completely lost. At this time, Shangguan Yi has no intention of escaping. He has lost the Huangcheng Mountain defense line and lost more than half of his army. Shangguan Yi still has
Why do you have the face to see King Zhang? He smiled miserably, grasped the handle of the knife tightly, and was about to wipe it on his neck. The blade was sharp, and if he really wanted to cut him, even the gods would not be able to save him.
Fortunately, the deputy general next to him had quick eyesight and hugged Shangguan Yi's arm, "Brother Shangguan, no, if you leave like this, what will happen to the brothers? Everyone finally escaped back, do you want to watch them die?
?”
If the lieutenant general said some high-sounding truths, Shangguan Yi might not listen to it, but seeing those confused soldiers with frightened and disappointed eyes, Shangguan Yi immediately felt ashamed in his heart. He would have died a hundred times.
Where are the brothers? Looking up at the extremely arrogant Cao Bianjiao at the top of the city, Shangguan Yi gritted his teeth, then sheathed his sword and said angrily, "Everyone retreat north, back to Linying from the ridge."
Shangguan Yi failed to commit suicide, but Cao Bianjiao was disappointed. Seeing the remnants of the rogues fleeing to the west ridge, he did not go out to pursue him. In this melee, as long as the Huangcheng Mountain defense line was captured, it would be a victory. As for chasing Shangguan Yi, it was not
So important. Shangguanyi has been stationed in Huangcheng Mountain for more than two months and is extremely familiar with this terrain. Under the current circumstances, the only chance for the bandits to survive is the northern ridge. Although the mountain road is difficult and there are dangers everywhere, it is better than confronting the officers and soldiers.
Head-to-head.
By obtaining the Huangcheng Mountain defense line, the Northern Shanxi Army had accomplished a great feat. From then on, Zhang Xianzhong's bandits had no possibility of taking the initiative to attack in the Central Plains. Now that the officers and soldiers do not take the initiative to attack Linying, Zhang Xianzhong should burn incense.
Shangguan Yi was certainly to blame for the fall of Huangcheng Mountain, but Zhang Xianzhong himself also had to bear a large part of the responsibility. After such a tragic failure, Zhang Xianzhong was not as furious as he imagined, but ordered the ministries to gradually move towards Shangshui and the
Shen Qiu changed direction and was ready to run away at any time.
In the dead of night, with no one else around, Zhang Xianzhong's face became gloomy and scary, and he kept holding a clay figurine in his hand, "Liu Guoneng, Sun Chuanting, you are very good, but you have deceived me again."
After the suppression of bandits in the Central Plains came to an end, Cao Wenzhao naturally led his troops and horses back to northern Shanxi. As for the finishing touches, it was left to Sun Chuanting. After this incident, Sun Chuanting's impression of the northern Shanxi army changed greatly, at least in the Ming Dynasty.
Knowing that they were being squeezed out by the imperial court, Cao Wenzhao and Liu Guoneng helped win the battle at Huangcheng Mountain despite the overall situation.
Tie Mo was ambitious, and the power of the Northern Shanxi Army continued to expand, gradually dividing the already turbulent Ming Dynasty. Sun Chuanting admitted that Tie Mo was excellent, but could not support Tie Mo's approach, which ran counter to the teachings he had received since childhood.
