The commotion coming from Sakahara outside the city had already awakened the defenders in Jiuqu City. Li Yuan, who had already disarmed and fell asleep, quickly got up and put on his armor again, climbed to the top of the city, and stared in the direction of the commotion outside the city.
.
Hearing the sounds of various battles getting closer and closer, Li Yuan was also filled with surprise and uncertainty.
Looking at this posture, it seems that reinforcements have arrived and are attacking the enemy's defense line. However, the armies of the Western Wei Dynasty have their own methods and signals to communicate with each other and transmit information. Although there are constant commotions in the south, there have been no corresponding flags, drums, and beacon signals.
appears, which makes it impossible to judge whether we are the enemy or ourselves.
But if reinforcements hadn't arrived, was it just the enemy's own self-directed performance? Then what was their purpose? Could it be that they were creating an illusion of chaos to lure the defenders to attack and break out?
If this is the case, then the enemy general is really smart. War is inherently high-intensity and full of dangerous behaviors. The soldiers involved in it are under great pressure, so they must be controlled and controlled by strict discipline.
constraint.
Especially at night, no matter how strict the implementation of the camp ban is, even if there is any night battle plan, it will only be concentrated among the elite troops. But now the riot has nearly spread to the entire Jiuqu Zone, and
The degree of chaos that occurred in different places was different, and it was obviously not a premeditated or organized action.
Li Yuan racked his brains and couldn't determine what the situation was. Yifeng, who was injured, also climbed to the top of the city. He was also a little dumbfounded when he saw this scene. Could it be that they encountered some uneven road?
A good man can't stand the enemy's bullying of the weak, so he goes out to help?
But no matter what the real situation is, what is certain is that the enemy's turmoil is gradually expanding, especially in the area west of Jiuqu City. The fierce or passionate roars are not fake at all.
In stark contrast, the east side of Jiuqu City is relatively quiet, especially the enemy's offensive line set up on the first bend slope in the east and the base camp between Jiuqu Ancient City in the rear are still brightly lit and the view is
It was seen that the enemy troops were still assembled and well-organized, and the impact of the riots was very limited.
"In any case, the collapse of the enemy's camp is a rare opportunity. If we don't take advantage of this opportunity to attack, I'm afraid it will be too late to regret it when the enemy's camp is solidified at dawn!"
After some thought and weighing, Li Yuan decided not to miss this opportunity and planned to send his elite troops to attack.
Taking advantage of the chaos in the enemy camp on Xiqu and having no time to pay attention to the movements of the defenders in the city, Li Yuan selected 500 elite troops and ordered them to put on the Eastern Army's robes and flags, and they fought against each other for many years.
There is naturally no shortage of seizures.
After these elite soldiers put on Dongjun robes and disguised themselves, they went out of the city along the side wall using rope ladders, preparing to take advantage of the chaos and night to kill the enemy camp. Of course, it was not the small camps scattered among Sakahara, but the enemy's central camp.
Li Yuan even agreed with these tribesmen that once the camp was successful, he would immediately set fire to it as a signal, and he would lead all the soldiers in the city out of the city to fight the enemy.
Not to mention that Li Yuan and others in the city were not clear about this situation, but Zhu Hunyuan in the camp outside the city was also a little surprised and puzzled: "Which band of thieves is this? If the troops from the Kansai region come to help,
Why sneak into the lower reaches to confuse the enemy? If they are Yichuan troops, why attack from upstream?"
Of course, he had not thought about the possibility of Yichuan's enemy troops crossing Xiong'er Mountain to rescue Jiuqu City. However, the route was rugged and winding, making it difficult for most people to pass through. Even if the reinforcements came, they would definitely be small and sharp troops.
Public.
However, news of defeats came one after another from various defensive camps in the west. After the retreating soldiers returned to camp, they each described the might and bravery of the enemy. Although it was inevitable that they were deliberately exaggerating in order to reduce their guilt, the fact that they broke out of the camps one after another also showed this.
An enemy army is truly astonishing in combat power, and does not behave like a light force.
However, Zhu Hunyuan used his troops in a prudent and careful manner. Each of the battalions in the west defended important areas. This was originally to create pressure on the defenders in the city and resist enemy reinforcements that might appear in the west. Although thousands of troops were deployed,
The real core is still the tens of thousands of soldiers in his headquarters camp. As long as the front line here does not collapse, the offensive against the enemy will not be greatly affected.
Therefore, he ordered all the soldiers to stick to the camp here, and the soldiers who were defeated and fled in front were temporarily led to other camps to settle down, so as not to mix with the Chinese army camp. At the same time, he also sent a thousand elite cavalry to patrol Luo.
between water and river valleys to ensure that once the enemy breaks out and escapes, they can detect it in time and launch an attack, killing as many enemy troops as possible.
On Xiqu Sakahara, when he learned from Wei Fabao that they had killed all the way to Jiuqu City, Li Tai felt happy and surprised for a moment. Sometimes it is hard to predict a person's potential. When you concentrate,
When you do something without any distractions, the energy you unleash and the results you achieve will surprise even yourself!
"Quickly, light the beacon fire and inform the city of the news!"
At first he was trying to deceive others, but then he killed so much that he completely forgot about it. Now he remembered that he should inform the city, so he hurriedly gave the order.
As the beacon fire rose, a series of cheers suddenly sounded in the city. Li Yuan and other city defenders finally confirmed that reinforcements had arrived. Knowing that he and others were not abandoned and trapped alone in the city, the mood in the city was uplifted, and soon they
Envoys were also sent to communicate with the reinforcements.
The movements in Jiuqu City naturally aroused the vigilance of Ke Zhu Hunyuan, who personally led a team of elite soldiers to the top of the East Quyuan to monitor the enemy's movements.
In the separate camp on the south side of the main camp, the soldiers who were defeated from the front line were all placed here. These people saw with their own eyes the amazing fighting power of the enemy forces. Those who ran slower had been mercilessly killed by the enemy forces.
After retreating in a panic, I was still a little frightened. I was restrained under the orders of the soldiers who were left behind. However, because I was isolated from the camp, my mood was still frightened.
"Why aren't we allowed to enter the camp? The enemy is so powerful that they set up camp at night and we fight bravely, but we want to be oppressed by idle soldiers like you who are hiding behind. Is this unreasonable?"
Suddenly, a group of defeated soldiers in a corner of the camp started shouting angrily and directly slashed to kill the soldiers who were dominating the patrol camp.
Several soldiers were caught off guard and were killed on the spot. Other soldiers in the camp fled aside for fear of being implicated. However, the defeated soldiers who killed others refused to give up and rushed towards the camp fence, shouting loudly:
: "Although a certain group of people returned in defeat, they still faced a powerful enemy and were not guilty of any crime! The general violated the law and wanted to kill all the defeated soldiers. Those who wanted to survive followed us into the camp to find the general and accuse him of injustice!"
The defeated soldiers of these battalions were already in shock. Their organization had been completely disbanded. They had not been effectively comforted and reorganized after the retreat. Now when they heard that they were going to be executed, they were extremely panicked for a while.
When the fear reaches the extreme, they naturally want to save themselves, so these soldiers were immediately incited and followed them noisily, destroying and clearing all the barriers between the two camps, and poured in one after another.
In the camp, everyone shouted and shouted to embolden themselves, and wandered freely in the camp looking for the general to complain and complain.
Under the interference of these defeated soldiers, the Chinese army camp, which had not been affected much, suddenly became a little chaotic.
When a team that was already assembled for battle rushed forward to try to stop these defeated soldiers and control order, it only aggravated the fear in these people's hearts. When even they waved their swords and guns and weapons in their hands and rushed forward to kill, both sides
Immediately a melee broke out.
"The enemy troops entered the camp and our army was defeated!"
Chaotic shouts rang out in the military camp, and coupled with the shouts of fighting, it was like a ball of fire falling into a haystack, and panic and chaos spread quickly.
"What happened in the camp?"
But Zhu Hunyuan soon noticed the chaos in the camp at the rear, and no longer bothered to watch the enemy's movements in the city, he quickly led his troops back to the camp and entered the camp through the relatively quiet west camp.
At this time, the chaos had spread among the camps. Even the soldiers in other camps who had not been affected by the chaos were panicked. They barely managed to rush out of the camp under the repeated orders of the commanders and commanders in the camp.
scope.
However, Zhu Hunyuan inspected the surrounding camps and calmed them down a little. At the same time, he also targeted the soldiers who were causing trouble in the camp, so he ordered the surrounding camps to shout loudly, and in an instant, the Chinese army camp was
The sounds of fighting and commotion were suppressed.
However, before he could lead his troops into the camp to quell the chaos, the gates of Jiuqu City across the street were already wide open. Li Yuan led more than 2,000 defenders in the city to rush out of the city and went straight to kill the enemy's camp, which was still in chaos.
go.
At the same time, Li Tai was leading his men to quickly bypass the ravine and ascend to the Piyuan. He first defended the Jiuqu City with its gates wide open, and then sounded drums and horns inside and outside the city.
Such noisy and chaotic flags and drums can no longer convey any accurate military orders, but the powerful sound that hits the eardrums can amplify the panic in people's hearts and make the morale of the attacking party even higher.
"Gather to me, come to me hastily..."
But Zhu Hunyuan was still working hard to restore order, and kept ordering his soldiers to pass on assembly orders to the surrounding areas. But at this time, the camps had completely fallen into chaos. Even if someone wanted to lead his troops to assemble here, they would not be able to do so.
They will soon be dispersed by other soldiers.
Seeing that the situation was like this, Zhu Hunyuan could only order a retreat with a look of helplessness, leave the front line of the battle, and then establish a stronghold to gather troops on the back road, hoping to gather the defeated troops as efficiently as possible.
As Zhu Hunyuan withdrew from Jiuqu, the enemy forces here had no effective command at all. They all followed their instincts and reacted to stress, and the combat effectiveness they could exert was pitiful.
The troops of various tribes scrambled to retreat, and some troops even saw no sign of the enemy from the beginning to the end. However, they were so frightened that they still did not dare to stop even if they were running out of breath.
Step down.
When Li Tai took a short rest and then led his troops to the enemy's camp, Li Yuan had already led hundreds of cavalry to continue chasing the enemy and defeated them, leaving thousands of soldiers behind to collect prisoners and clean the battlefield.
Looking at the many weapons and materials left by the enemy on the battlefield, Li Tai was quite greedy, but he also understood that rushing forward to collect them would most likely cause conflict between the two troops, so he led his troops from the edge of the battlefield to
Walking down the plateau, when we reached the middle of the plateau, we heard the neighing of many war horses in front of us.
Li Tai was overjoyed when he heard the news. He walked some distance further, and sure enough, there was a vast horse camp at the bottom of the slope, extending from the front of the slope to the bank of Luoshui River. Looking at it, there were at least two to three thousand war horses gathered in it.
"Quickly find the nearby riding equipment warehouse, get ready and mount your horse, and continue to kill the enemy!"
This huge harvest immediately made Li Tai feel exhausted, and he immediately shouted an order.
