After agreeing on the plan, several generals did not hesitate and gathered their troops when they returned to their own armies. When He Ruomuti ordered all the troops to prepare to meet the enemy, the former Yanzhou Army officers and soldiers only waited for an order.
, and rushed out one after another.
Such a sudden chaos caught the people of Gaoyu by surprise even though they were prepared for the Yanzhou army.
He Ruomuti quickly sent people to intercept them, but where were there more interceptions?
After the previous disastrous defeat in Jianling, Gaoyu's remaining iron soldiers were not much more than those of the Yanzhou Army. Naturally, the Yanzhou Army could not defeat them, but if tens of thousands of people were to escape, they could not be stopped by these soldiers and horses.
living.
Although they caught up and killed some of the slower runners, most of the Yanzhou army still ran away.
Heruomuti and Jamuka did not dare to entangle themselves, because behind them there were the Zhenguo Army who were pursuing them fiercely.
If they get entangled with these Yanzhou troops, they will lose both sides and let the Zhenguo army take advantage in vain.
"General Gu, what's going on?" Luo Junyao asked from a mountain peak not far from He Ruomudi's garrison, looking at the Gaoyu military camp in the distance.
Gu Jue smiled and said, "What do you think, Princess?"
Luo Jun shook his head and glanced at him, "It seems that the Yanzhou army mutinied?"
Although they are a little far away, it can be seen that two groups of troops are fighting together. It is a pity that their troops are one step behind, otherwise wouldn't it be good to take advantage of the opportunity to fight out?
Gu Jue nodded and said, "It's because the original Yanzhou army mutinied."
Luo Junyao looked at him suspiciously, "Does it have anything to do with you?"
Gu Jue smiled and said: "Princess, please don't talk nonsense. What do these rebels have to do with me? They could be incited by Wu Yi to treason. They are not loyal and resolute people. Now that Wu Yi has abandoned them, Gaoyu people
The war is not going well. If they don’t want to be used as cannon fodder, what else can they do but find their own way out?"
Luo Jun shook his face and said, "It's weird if I believe you." But he said, "Okay, what should we do now? The army hasn't arrived yet, and He Ruomuti might run away."
Gu Jue said: "Don't worry, Jiang Yan has blocked the only way to Chixia Pass. If He Ruomuti wants to run, he can only run south."
"You want to force him to join the Cao family?" Luo Junyao said in surprise.
Isn't this causing trouble for yourself?
Gu Jue said: "General Xu and his friends are having a smooth battle in Qingzhou and are about to reach the capital city of Qingzhou. The prince said that the Qingzhou rebels and the Gaoyu people will be driven together to deal with them at once to save trouble and also provide our reinforcements."
Try to gain some time for encirclement."
"Over there in Liangzhou... there is also Gaoyu..."
Gu Jue said: "Your Majesty said that Liangzhou has its own Young Master Luo and the Zhenguo Army, and Gaoyu's affairs are handled by the Prince, so there is no need to worry. We just need to watch and don't let Heruomuti and Jamuhe escape."
Both of them were of the same mind and forgot about Pingshan Castle, He Ruoqiuti and many Gaoyu troops.
Gu Jue and Luo Junyao did not take He Ruoqiuti seriously, but He Ruomuti would not forget it.
In fact, on the day Jianling withdrew his troops, he had already sent an order to He Ruoqiuti, ordering him to bring troops to reinforce him.
Jianling Mausoleum is not far from Pingshan Fort, but until now, I haven't seen even a reply, let alone reinforcements. He Ruomu didn't mention it on his face, but he already had an extremely bad premonition in his heart.
Because of the escape of the Yanzhou Army, Gaoyu Tiejie soldiers were extremely embarrassed in their first formal encounter with the Zhenguo Army in the wild. Jamuhe was injured and Heruomuti retreated to Chixia Pass in embarrassment.
Because Xinting had long been retaken by the Dasheng people, they could only bypass Xinting and take the trail to Chixia Pass. However, they were ambushed by Jiang Yan and lost most of their troops.
It can be said that the invasion of Dasheng by He Ruomuti, the ambitious prince of Gaoyu, started very smoothly, but then suffered a series of setbacks, which can be said to be quite ugly.
He Ruomuti's remaining troops neither dared to attack Xinting nor could pass through the trail blocked by Jiang Yan, so they had no choice but to retreat to the south.
On the other side, several officers and soldiers of the Yanzhou Army who had escaped from Heruomuti's army were celebrating their survival after the disaster.
Although they fled all the way south, they were still able to learn some news about the rear.
After receiving the news that He Ruomudi was defeated by Gu Jue and Jiang Yan, everyone was even more grateful that they left early.
Even Gaoyu's iron soldiers can't compare with the Zhenguo army, let alone them?
"Fortunately we left early." The aroma of wine filled the big tent.
Several drunken generals sat in the tent with their arms around the beauties and talked loudly.
"No, the general is still wise." One of the generals raised his wine glass and flattered the person on the throne: "From now on, we will all obey the general's orders. We have 20,000 troops and are going to join the Cao family in Qingzhou. The general can't say
You can also earn a lot of money as an official."
Another person next to him also smiled and said: "Don't say we are taking refuge in the Cao family, even if we become kings on our own, so what?"
After several cups of yellow soup, these people obviously no longer knew their names.
Each one of them is arrogant and dares to say anything.
In troubled times, people always talk about the family of soldiers and bandits.
Just because of the evil nature of human nature, without the constraints of rules and armed with sharp weapons, there will always be people who repeatedly break through the moral bottom line.
Just like these people, when they were serving in the imperial court, they were generals and soldiers guarding the border. Now they have become rebels from the Yanzhou Army, and have betrayed Gaoyu and become deserters. They have also done a lot of killing and looting along the way.
The general sitting in the chief position was originally just a partial general under Wu Yi. After this period of time, the people who could speak in the army were either killed by Wu Yi because of their persistence or died for other reasons.
, he became the top general of these soldiers and horses.
Now that he had 20,000 troops and horses in hand, he had just escaped from the Gaoyu people, and he couldn't help but feel a little dizzy.
"We only have 20,000 troops, so we can't deal with Gu Jue and Jiang Yan." The general said, "We should go to Qingzhou as planned. But... we only have 20,000 troops, which is not enough."
"What does the general think?"
The general narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "What else can we do? It's natural to recruit troops, at least 50,000 people must be gathered!"
At times like this, soldiers and horses represent power and confidence.
With 50,000 soldiers and horses, even if we go to Qingzhou, it will be easier to negotiate terms.
It is said to be conscription, but in fact it is just to capture ordinary people to serve as soldiers.
"What a great idea, General!" someone praised.
"What the general said is, let's..." Before he could finish his words, drums could be heard outside, and soldiers outside the door shouted: "No! Soldiers and horses are surrounding us!"
"What?!" Everyone was shocked, half sober from the drunkenness, and quickly stood up and rushed out.
The soldiers and horses in the distance had already arrived. They had just rushed out of the big tent. There was already a loud noise outside the big camp. It was obvious that the two armies outside were in close combat.
"Quick! Go out and take a look!" Several generals hurriedly ran outside.
The general who just now was talking loudly about imagining the future narrowed his eyes slightly, and his original passion and arrogance instantly faded.
He looked around, then turned and entered the tent.
Outside the camp, those Yanzhou troops who were forced to flee were Gu Jue's opponents.
Seeing that the battle was almost one-sided, Gu Jue made a gesture behind him.
Immediately behind the army, countless people shouted loudly: "Surrender without killing! Surrender without killing!" Hundreds of thousands of voices sounded at the same time, immediately resounding throughout the entire battlefield.
Those Yanzhou troops who had long been frightened out of their courage dared to resist. The moment they saw the flag of the Zhenguo Army, they were so frightened that their legs weakened. They were just struggling to survive.
When they heard this again, many people simply put down their weapons and squatted on the ground to surrender.
On the other side, several people from the rear of the battlefield rushed out quickly on horseback, detouring all the way to the other side along the foot of the mountain.
The one walking at the front seemed to be the general who had previously claimed that he would gather 50,000 people to surrender to the Cao family.
Looking back at the battlefield and the camp that he had left far behind, the man secretly breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but reach out and touch the bulging bag on his horse's back.
Although I can no longer become a general, it would be nice to find a place where I can hide my name and live a life of fine clothes and fine food.
Just when he was thinking proudly, several horses suddenly broke out in front of him and blocked the way.
Thinking they were Gu Jue's troops, the man was startled. But upon closer inspection, he saw that these people were not dressed as the Zhenguo Army or the Yanzhou Army. They were led by two young men with outstanding looks, a man and a woman.
"Who are you two?" The man looked at the two of them warily and said, "Please be kind. If you need anything, just ask."
Luo Junyao, who was sitting on the horse, looked at the man for a long time and felt a little regretful that there was such a person among the Yanzhou Army generals guarding the border.
Luo Junyao smiled at him and said, "It's very simple, we want your head."
