Tingguan was shattered, and the 10,000 elite troops of Gan Yuan fought until the end. Even if the seriously injured were included, there were still less than 4,000.
But the battle of Tingguan was the most critical part of the entire battle between Lijun and Yongchangjun.
Chen Shaoxiong, the guard at Tingguan Pass, was seriously injured and was almost in danger of falling. Ever since Luochuan carried him back to the camp in the city, he fell into a coma and did not wake up. Even though Lijun Qingqi was always equipped with the best military doctors in time,
It’s impossible to tell what the final outcome will be.
And the captain who joined the army with him and fought with him for decades, Chen Shusheng, who he always called his second brother, died on the city wall on the fourth day of the bloody battle.
After several days of bombardment, not even a complete body was found, and most likely it became one with the small town...
Luochuan did not stay long in Tingguan. He only left supplies of food and fodder for the defenders inside the pass and then led five thousand Li County light cavalry to attack.
He is going to kill someone.
Even if there were thousands of corpses of Yongchang people left outside Tingguan City, he felt it was totally not enough.
There was a raging fire in his chest, burning his whole body with evil spirits.
As a result, the Lijun Qingqi was filled with an unparalleled chilling aura, as if it were real.
After the cavalry went south for more than ten miles away from Tingguan, the silver-armored cavalryman who had been riding quietly alongside Luochuan slowly raised his visor, revealing a face he had not seen for a long time.
The old coachman Luo Jiang was handed over by Han Feng who took office!!
It turned out that as early as when Luochuan was heading from Ganshui Pass to Liangcang City, he had secretly ordered former Ganyuan general Luo Jiang to lead 10,000 elite troops northward to aid Tongcang City. Based on the relatively strict military control in the Sancang area, this group
After leaving the Tianmen Pass, the army of ten thousand people sneaked along the mountains without alerting too many people even though they had already camped in secret dozens of miles south of Tongcang City.
Lijun Qingqi, who was originally supposed to stay in Zhengcang City to help Shen Cheng, who was gradually recovering from his injuries, to defend the city according to the military meeting, had secretly moved south when the Yongchang army divided its forces and headed north, and after making an arc to the west, it quickly integrated into the Tongcang army.
At this point, 30,000 elite soldiers and 5,000 Lijun Qingqi were gathered in Tongcang. Zhao Wuji left 10,000 people to defend Tongcang City. At the same time as the bloody battle in the small town of Tingguan began, he led 20,000 elite troops to quickly go south to fight with Yongchang County.
The left wing, that is, the Yongchang Army, which went north from Shou Tong City to cooperate with the Chinese army in an advancing posture, met head-on!
The terrain on the battlefield is flat, and the infantry of the two parties line up to meet each other, bumping into each other without any fancy!
Just the moment the two parties came into contact, this army with the Yongchang Northern Army as the core showed signs of instability!
A large-scale fighting begins!
Under Zhao Wuji's strong military orders, the Chinese army fought like a mountain and refused to retreat. The left army and the right army took advantage of their strength and combat power to launch a powerful surprise attack, gradually forming a huge pocket!
The Lijun Qingqi wandered around the periphery of the Yongchang Army array like death waiters, using arrows and flying swords to continuously squeeze the Yongchang Army infantry array, squeezing the originally complete array into multiple gaps that could not be formed into an array. Therefore, this
After the fighting lasted for half a morning, the Yongchang army of nearly 20,000 people was completely defeated!
Countless soldiers from the Yongchang North Army abandoned their weapons and knelt on the ground begging to surrender, while the rest completely lost their fighting spirit and could only flee. They suffered heavy casualties under the pursuit of Lijun Qingqi, and countless deserters were trampled to death.
By the time Zhao Wuji sent his army south to pursue the defeated army and took advantage of the opportunity to capture Shouting City, it was already the night of the third day. The army had assembled and repaired in the middle of the night. Luo Chuan led five thousand Lijun Qingqi to rush north to rescue Tingguan City overnight. When Lijun Qingqi arrived at Tingguan City,
At that time, the prefect of Yongchang County and his Chinese army had already received the news of the fall of Shouting in advance, and the entire army withdrew southward.
"In war, people will die," Luo Jiang drove the horse while looking at Luo Chuan, who was wearing a bloody mask with blood armor and only revealing a pair of fierce eyes. His voice was deep and steady, just like his hands when driving the horse, "It's just that this
It's just that Tingguan looks a little more miserable. Next spring you will go south to Taiming and Baitong. As the governor of a county, you can't shed tears easily."
A blood knight on the other side of Luo Jiang pushed up the blood-colored mask with a click, slapped Luo Jiang on the arm and glared at him. It was Siqi.
Luo Jiang ignored him and just stared at Luochuan and continued, "Lijun Qingqi is the most loyal ace elite in Lijun. If the prefect of Lijun gives the order, he will let them charge straight into Meng Xiaotian's four troops, including the Shanshan Army.
With an army of tens of thousands of people here, they won’t even frown!!”
Luo Chuan's hand on the reins tightened, and then he replied as coldly as ice, "Forty thousand troops?! Do you think the thousands of corpses lying outside Chen Shaoxiong's Tingguan City are just vegetation?!" He turned his head and said extremely
He rarely got angry at Luo Jiang and said, "Does Meng Xiaotian's mountain-shaking army of native chickens and dogs deserve to be compared with my Lijun Qingqi?!"
He snorted coldly and looked forward again, but Luo Jiang remained silent.
After a while, Luo Chuan spoke again, "Meng Xiaotian was most likely afraid that Uncle Zhao from Shouting would cut off his retreat when he retreated in such a hasty manner. But like a bereaved dog, even if he was allowed to escape back to Yicheng with those iron knots,
However, the date of death is postponed for half a year, but if he wants to easily escape south and return to Yicheng, that is something he cannot even think about. He must be entangled to let him experience the taste of Lijun Qingqi...
!”
The words were so cold that Luo Jiang on the side felt relieved. In fact, the Lijun Qingqi's luxurious equipment and sophisticated mounts were indeed the only one that surpassed all the cavalry in Hanzhou in the southwest. But the reason why they are still called
It is a light cavalry, precisely because the tactics he applies are never frontal charges like heavy cavalry, but long-distance running and flexible maneuvering. Once used recklessly, even among the light cavalry, everyone is an elite among the elites in hundreds of battles.
There are only five thousand people.
So when he heard Luo Chuan say the word "tang" even though he was in a state of rage, he actually felt more at ease, "Before coming here, Zhao Wuji told me that according to the established strategy of your military conference, we will rush to help the pavilion."
The Lijun Qingqi after the pass should have rested at Tingguan and then go north to harass the 20,000 troops who sent troops from Xingcheng to attack Zhengcang City. But now you are going south to pursue Meng Xiaotian's Chinese army, what about the siege of Zhengcang?"
Luochuan was silent for a moment, then looked up at the sky, and then a shadow suddenly appeared behind him, squatting on his horse's butt as if it were nothing, "Send a message to Uncle Zhao, tell him to stop for a long time."
Then go south, divide your troops and go north to attack Xingcheng to break the siege of Zhengcang City."
The shadow nodded slightly and disappeared.
Luo Jiang frowned slightly and still looked at him, "You... want to seize Xingcheng?!"
Luo Chuan shook his head and then raised his visor, looking at Luo Jiang with a cold face, "Uncle Zhao insists on you following me, is it because you are afraid that I will mess up after seeing the tragic situation in Tingguan?"
He snorted and said, "Today's Xingcheng is not the land of three warehouses. It cannot be taken easily, especially since it is the land of three sides. We don't have enough time, so I won't touch it in the short term."
, the weather is getting warmer, I have to go south after this battle, and the matter of beheading the Meng Xiao Tengu for my father can only depend on the situation next year..."
