Chapter Seven hundred and fortieth two: The Battle of Jishui
After breaking into the meeting hall, Luo Yi saw the direction and ran towards the civil and military officials. As he ran, he shouted loudly: "Block them. Block them for me. Go quickly."
After all, Luo Yi's prestige in the Youzhou army was very high. Although Luo Yi's behavior of using Zhao Cihao as a shield just now made everyone extremely disdainful, they still did not dare to disobey Luo Yi's orders. Several military generals raised their hands. With his sword, he rushed towards the assassins. Among them was Luo Yi's current confidant Yang Wei. Yang Wei was seen holding a sword and facing an assassin in front. But the assassins who rushed in were They didn't take these generals to heart at all. They had only one goal, and that was Luo Yi.
I saw these assassins who rushed into the meeting hall jumped at the same time. Jumped over the heads of the generals and continued to rush towards Luo Yi. Seeing this scene, Luo Yi also gritted his teeth. He directly passed by A military general took a sword from his hand and swung his sword towards him.
Luo Yi was able to become the king and hegemon in Youzhou. His martial arts skills were also worthy of mention. He had seen those assassins using hidden weapons before. Luo Yi did not dare to take risks, so he did not step forward to fight. Now he was forced to have no choice. Moreover, these assassins also No longer using hidden weapons, Luo Yi regained some courage. Luo Yi rushed forward with a single step, waving the sword in his hand repeatedly. He directly took down three of the assassins. As for the remaining assassins, they were immediately killed. Yang Wei and other generals were entangled.
Luo Yi was also secretly shocked by this confrontation. The skills of these assassins were very good. Luo Yi had also seen the assassins brought by the Goguryeo swordsman Cui Xiantong before. Compared with the three assassins in front of him, they were nothing. None. However, Luo Yi himself was not bad. Facing the attacks of the three assassins, Luo Yi became more and more stable. The sword in his hand neutralized the attacks of the assassins one by one.
Obviously, those assassins did not expect Luo Yi to be so skilled. After these consecutive attacks failed, one of the assassins suddenly shouted: "Retreat." Then, before Luo Yi and others could react, those assassins The assassin had already exited the meeting hall in the blink of an eye. He jumped a few times and disappeared in an instant.
"Chase." Seeing this scene, Yang Qian shouted immediately. Although he didn't have a close relationship with the dead He Lanyi and Zhao Cihao, he couldn't just watch these assassins come here to make a big fuss. Then shit Nothing happened and he ran away.
"Okay." But before Yang Qian could step forward, an angry shout came from behind. When he turned around, he saw Luo Yi walking over from behind with a livid face. He lowered his head and glanced at the ground. Looking at the bodies of He Lanyi and Zhao Cihao, a trace of anger flashed across their faces. He shouted in a deep voice: "Don't chase the poor bandits. It's useless for you to chase them. Just clean up this place."
After saying that, Luo Yi ignored the subordinates who were looking at each other. He turned around and strode toward the backyard. After returning to his own room, Luo Yi also arranged the guards around him. He had already suffered a loss once. It's impossible to fall for that trick again.
After entering his own room, Luo Yi first stood in the middle of the room. He stood there motionless for three full incense sticks. Suddenly, Luo Yi opened his eyes suddenly. A light flashed through his eyes. Then he mentioned He kicked hard on the round table in front of him. The pear wood round table was set up, but it was kicked to pieces by Luo Yi. That was not the end. Luo Yi punched again. His feet hit the surrounding furniture. In the blink of an eye, the wooden cabinets, wardrobes and even bed boards were all smashed into a mess by Luo Yi.
After venting his anger, Luo Yi felt much better. Luo Yi knew it with his toes. These assassins must have been sent by Wanhe from Luoyang. The reason was to take revenge on those Goguryeo soldiers sent by Luo Yi before. The assassin's assassination operation. Now Luo Yi hates those Goguryeo in his heart. In terms of ability, he has no ability. The success is not enough, but the failure is more than failure. Instead of assassinating Li Jing, Qin Qiong and others, it has provoked Wan He's revenge.
What makes Luo Yi the most annoyed is that he subconsciously used Zhao Cihao as his shield just now. Of course, Luo Yi is not upset because of guilt. But because he did this, he undoubtedly made those who The subordinates were heartbroken. Thinking of this, Luo Yi felt a wave of dissatisfaction in his heart. He gritted his teeth and punched the wall next to him. It actually made cracks on the wall. Luo Yi stared at him. With blood-red eyes, he gritted his teeth and hummed: "Wan He. Wan He. I must cut you into pieces to vent the hatred in my heart."
Facing the coalition forces of Luo Yi and the three rebel kings at the border, Liang Wang Wanhe who was stationed in Luoyang personally led 70,000 troops and sent troops north. Facing Wanhe's counterattack, King Yan Luo Yi was not to be outdone. He contacted the three rebel kings at the border and sent troops to fight together. Among them, Guo Zihe, who was stationed in Hedong, attacked Hongnong, involving Liang Jun who stayed in Luoyang. Liang Shidu, who was stationed in Xia County, and Liu Wuzhou, who was stationed in Xiuwu, attacked from the east and west respectively. Luo Yi himself led 50,000 troops The soldiers and horses went south and faced off against Wanhe's 70,000-strong army. Such a battle finally started on the banks of the Jishui River.
On the banks of the Jishui River, the 70,000-strong army led by Wan He was arrayed directly to the west of Jishui. And separated by the not-so-wide Jishui River, on the east bank, Luo Yi's 50,000-strong army and Liu Wuzhou's 20,000-strong army were also separated. They were in formation, facing the army led by Wan He across the river. Not only that, to the north of Wan He's army formation, there was also Liang Shidu's 50,000-strong army that was also in formation.
Judging from the number of troops alone, although the 70,000 Liang army is more than any of the other three parties, Luo Yi, Liang Shidu, and Liu Wu combined the three armies to have a total of 120,000 soldiers. Fortunately, Wanhe seized the west bank of Jishui at the beginning. Although Jishui is not very wide, it is blocked by such a river. It is impossible for Luo Yi and Liu Wuzhou's troops to directly attack Liang Jun. But for the same reason, Liang Jun could not easily launch an attack on Liang Shidu's army on the west bank. The soldiers and horses from all directions were in a stalemate on the banks of the Jishui River. No one dared to act rashly.
On the east bank, looking at Liang Jun's formation on the other side of the river, Luo Yi's face was ashen. He never expected that the battle would become such a stalemate. He glanced at Liang Shidu's military formation on the other side. Luo Yi couldn't help but spat and cursed: "Master Liang is an idiot. Didn't I ask him to march slowly and not expose his target? He couldn't even do this. He also ruined my big event. Idiot. .fool."
"Prince Yan." Yang Qi, the general behind Luo Yi, took a step forward and said to Luo Yi: "Then Master Liang doesn't have much friendship with the prince. Why bother with him? It's better to just cross the river and attack. If Wan He is right It would be best if Liang Shidu's army takes action. We can take advantage of the confrontation between Wan He and Liang Shidu to make a profit."
"Shut up." Hearing Yang Wei's words, Luo Yi wanted to kill Yang Wei with a sword. Did he look like an idiot? He needed to be reminded of such a method. Luo Yi didn't want to do this. But The problem is that next to Luo Yi's Yan army, there is Liu Wuzhou who is watching covetously. The relationship between Liu Wuzhou and Liang Shidu is probably better than his own. How can Liu Wuzhou remain indifferent when he is so obviously trying to trick Liang Shidu? The trouble is that behind Liu Wuzhou and Liang Shidu, there is a common background. That is the Turks outside the customs. They framed Liang Shidu. If Liu Wuzhou files a complaint with the Turks, Luo Yi will never be punished. There is no more peace.
After taking a deep breath, Luo Yi rolled his eyes and shouted behind him in a deep voice: "Whoever comes, send me a message to Liang Shidu. Ask him to retreat temporarily. Try not to conflict with Wan He's troops."
Until now, Luo Yi has only one way. With Master Liang withdrawing like this, it will not only save Luo Yi from worries, but also draw Liang Jun's attention. Next, he only needs to forcefully cross the Jishui River to fight with him. Liang Jun faced off head-on.
Ever since the assassination incident, Luo Yi hated Wan He so much that he wanted to cut Wan He into pieces with a thousand knives. Only then did he put aside all his previous worries and decided to send troops to fight Wan He. Of course, Luo Yi didn't Completely losing his mind. Before sending troops, Luo Yi had already sent people to Chang'an to inform Li Shimin. Together with Guo Zihe who attacked Hongnong, it would be fine if Wan He really left the remaining troops in Luoyang. What if? If not, then the armies of Li Shimin and Guo Zihe will directly capture Luoyang and destroy Wanhe's lair.
Imagining the scene of Wan He being defeated in the end, Luo Yi couldn't help but reveal a ferocious smile. He couldn't wait any longer. Immediately afterwards, Luo Yi sent someone to notify Liu Wuzhou on the other side, so that he could also wait. Get ready. Cross the river with yourself and attack by force.
In the military formation of Liu Wuzhou's army not far from Luo Yi's headquarters, Liu Wuzhou had just received Luo Yi's order. He waved his hand expressionlessly, asking Luo Yi's order to retreat. And there was the order. After retreating, Liu Wuzhou showed a trace of anger on his face. He snorted: "Damn Luo Yi. He really thinks he is my boss. He actually came to order me to do things."
"Your Majesty." At this time, a tall and muscular general stepped forward and shouted at Liu Wuzhou, cupping his fists and saying, "Luo Yi asked us to follow him to forcefully cross the Jishui River. I'm afraid he still wanted to use your Majesty as his shield." Ah, Your Majesty, you must be careful."
This general was Gao Manzheng, the general under Luo Yi. Hearing Gao Manzheng's words, Liu Wuzhou also snorted coldly and said: "How could I not know his thoughts? Huh, he wants to let my son-in-law die for him. dream."
