Chapter 5 Return (Part 4) It has only been half an hour since the official contact between the enemy and ourselves, but Yuwen Shiji felt as anxious as if he had waited for a hundred years.
The entire right-wing army was collapsing, and the fastest escaping rebels had already reached Xiongwu Camp. They sent wave after wave of soldiers to warn the Chinese army, but there has been no reply from my father. He listened to the thunderous drums and tsunami.
With such a cry of killing, Yu Wenshiji felt that his forehead had begun to "smoke". He could not imagine what the outcome of the 300,000 Sui troops, his family and the Sui court would face after the entire right wing collapsed!
Once this battle fails, Luoyang City will no longer be owned by the Sui Dynasty. The Sui Dynasty, which has lost the last of its soldiers, will quickly collapse like an earthen wall soaked by rain. The Yuwen family will become a great power.
The first sacrifice before the fall of the Sui Dynasty, the reputation, wealth and power accumulated over more than a hundred years will disappear.
But now he couldn't take any action. Before the Chinese army issued an order, as a guard and supervisor, he issued any order without authorization, which was a crime punishable by execution.
Just when he was so anxious that he took the risk, the Chinese army finally raised a bunch of golden corner flags: "Xiongwuying quickly supports the right wing!" The meaning expressed by the flags was simple and clear, and Yu Wenshiji raised his horse high.
He pointed diagonally to the right, "Xiongwuying, follow me to defeat the enemy!"
"Destroy the enemy -!" There were sparse responses from all around. Yu Wenshi didn't have the strength to tighten the reins of the horse, causing the horse that had already rushed out of the queue to raise its front hooves. "Brothers, follow me to kill the thief!" he said.
He turned around and shouted again. There were still few responses from all around. Murong Luo, Li Anyuan, Cui Qian, Li Mengchang, and several core figures in the Xiongwu camp did not move. They looked at Li Xu, waiting for the general.
official order
Beads of sweat quickly dripped from Yu Wenshiji's temples. He instantly understood the reason why the generals refused to follow him. Li Xu did not move. He was only a supervisor of the army. He had the right to counsel military affairs and supervise the generals, but he did not have the power to lead troops to attack.
We are all friends. The general, Li Xu, has a gentle temper and does not fight for power, so the soldiers do not deliberately consider who gives them orders, the general or the supervisor. After a dinner party yesterday, the Yuwen family is ready to support their own children to fight for power with Li Xu.
It has been made very clear that when the soldiers listen to orders at this time, they naturally have to consider the difference in status between the chief general and the supervisor.
"My Yuwen family won't..." Yuwen Shiji felt his words rolling in his throat, but he didn't have the courage to say them out. He wanted to promise that the Yuwen family would not forget everyone's actions today. But after yesterday's dinner, I'm afraid at this moment
The entire Xiongwu camp knew how the Yuwen family repaid their savior with the "Yuwen family's reward". This sentence has long become a laughing stock in everyone's mind. Unless they are fools, no one will believe that the noble Yuwen family will remember the benefits of others.
in heart
"Xu Zi!" Yu Wenshiji turned his face and shouted at Li Xu that Li Xu could not disobey the general's order at the critical moment. Otherwise, even if he had a gold medal to protect his life, the military law of the Sui Dynasty would not be able to spare him. But as the commander of the Xiongwu Camp,
, but he has countless ways and means to reduce the combat effectiveness of his subordinates. Yu Wenshi and himself can save others. Now he can also come up with more than a dozen ways to delay time, work without exerting effort, and he can even attack carefully.
, and then find an excuse to quickly retreat from the battlefield. With You Wuhou and You Yuwei as shields, the imperial court will never think that a person who can retreat in full force in the chaos will passively avoid the battle.
Yu Wenshi and Ping Su were originally much smarter than Li Xu. At this moment, it was about the safety of the family, but he couldn't help but feel calm. He finally understood why Li Xu could still interact with him calmly after being so obviously ostracized. "He had long ago
Anticipating today, he has already thought of a way to take revenge!" The more he thought about it, the more Yuwen Shiji felt that he was trapped in a huge conspiracy. "Guys like Li Anyuan and Murong Luo had colluded with him a long time ago, just to ruin the reputation of the Yuwen family!
"Yuwen Shiji wiped his face with his palm, wiping the sweat, tears and dust all over his face. He knew that it was no one else's fault. Retribution would come sooner or later. Today it was just the right time to raise the Changsha for the third time. Yuwen Shiji
Ji's shouts became hysterical, "Boys of the Yuwen family, come to me and show them our blood!"
After shouting, he loosened the reins, spurred the horse outwards and lowered his mount, "Hey! Yo!" He let out a roar, raised his front hooves high, and almost threw Supervisor Yuwen, who was in a state of madness, to the ground.
"Calm down, if you go up like this, you will lose but not win." Li Xu didn't know when he had rushed to Yu Wenshi and his side, and pulled the reins of the opponent's horse with force. "There are too many soldiers, and rushing up directly will not have any effect! Look at it.
Right Guards, their soldiers are no less than ours." He was too stupid to say much. The expression of concern on his face and the strength in his arms had already made the madman wake up in an instant.
You Wuhou had already collapsed. You Yuwei tried to stop You Wuhou and the rebels, but was defeated. At this moment, Xiongwuying rushed forward, which was equivalent to repeating You Yuwei's tragedy. They only had less than three soldiers.
Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, absolutely unable to stop the more than 60,000 defeated troops who were in a state of panic, and the 40,000 rebel bandits who followed in the footsteps of the defeated troops and shouted to kill Yu Wenshi and knew that Xuzi was right, and finally understood that everyone was not deliberately seeking revenge.
What should the Yuwen family do if they are arrogant? The right guard's command has begun to waver. If the Xiongwu camp does not step forward, the army will never have the chance to save the defeat!
"You lead the infantry, slowly advance behind the right guard, and use your bows and crossbows to protect the middle army!" Li Xu pointed with a black knife at the junction between the right guard and the middle army, and ordered in an unquestionable tone, "Arrange the oblique line."
Formation, use the trumpet to order the broken troops to detour, no matter they are rebels or rebels, as long as they approach, they will be shot immediately!"
"Yes!" Yu Wenshiji, who was in a state of confusion, nodded, as if he was a puppet at the mercy of others. This is an impossible method. It may achieve certain results, but the premise is that the rebels no longer rush behind the rebel army in such a hurry, otherwise,
The desperate rebel army will regard Xiongwuying as another right guard and attack them with swords unceremoniously.
"Fighting Cavalry, come out!" Li Xu settled down Yu Wenshu, turned around, and shouted at his brothers. Yu Wenshu can put all the credit for his past achievements on his son's head. But today, what happened to hundreds of thousands of people
No one can erase the facts in front of Pao Ze
Murong Luo and Li Mengchang each stepped out of the formation with more than 2,000 cavalry. This was the last cavalry to arrive at Liyang. The cavalry that had not been scattered and integrated into other regiments had been verified by two battles in Liyang. Li Xu, Yu Wenshi and Du
They were optimistic about the offensive power of the pure cavalry team, so they retained these cavalry and formed them into a separate unit. According to the tradition of dividing the army within the Sui Dynasty, they named it the Xiaocai Army (Note 1). "Unhorse and equip!"
When Yu Wenshiji figured out what Xuzi wanted to do, he heard another absurd and bold order.
The cavalry of the Great Sui Dynasty was well protected, and the forelimbs of the war horses were usually also covered with horse armor.
At the moment of the war, Li Xu couldn't think of a way to strengthen the protection of his war horses, but ordered his soldiers to remove their gear from all the war horses. What exactly did he want to do?
The soldiers were stunned for a moment, unable to understand this ridiculous order. But out of trust in their commander, they jumped off their horses one after another, quickly cut the ropes holding the horse armor, and threw the heavy horse armor to the ground.
"Mount your horse, raise your sword, and chop down all those who stand in front of you!" Li Xu held up his black sword and inspected the battlefield for the last time. The flag of the right guard had fallen down, and a large number of broken troops were pouring towards the central army and rear guard.
The enemy's advance was very fast, almost non-stop. Wherever the Chinese army on our side was, another string of red battle flags was raised, which was an order to urge the battle. Old Yuwenshu couldn't wait any longer. This time
The success or failure of Xiongwuying's attack is related to the life and death of the entire army.
To deal with this situation, the only way to deal with this situation is to use fast versus fast. "Kill!" Li Xu suddenly swung down the scimitar in his hand, activated his mount, and rushed toward the rebels like lightning.
"Kill!" Murong Luo and Li Mengchang mobilized their war horses, and the five thousand cavalry that formed a sharp sword moved with a sudden movement, and instantly formed an indestructible steel sword behind Xu Zi.
The war horses without the burden of armor ran extremely fast. After a few breaths, the rebel soldiers had already rushed in front of the rebel soldiers, who were escaping for their lives. Suddenly they heard the rumbling wind and thunder, and were so frightened that they forgot to avoid the horse's hooves and stepped over them without hesitation, causing blood and flesh to fly.
, the screams are endless
"Get out of the way, take a detour!" The cavalrymen of the Xiongwu Camp yelled and cursed loudly. The soldiers who were not being trampled down by their horses were stunned. They opened their mouths wide and couldn't even cry. Suddenly, someone shouted in despair,
He raised his sword and struck at the horse that was galloping past him. The weapon drew a streak of lightning in the air, but it was empty when it fell. The man raised his sword again, but received a heavy blow on his shoulder. Another horse rushed towards him at high speed.
The war horse collided with him, knocking him directly into the air.
"Bang!" "Bang!" The dull crashing sound was heard incessantly. The soldiers were so frightened that they could not even remember that the soldiers who lined up to block the horses were knocked away one after another, and gaps were made in the crowd. The soldiers who ran a little slower discovered that
There was a dead end ahead. I didn't have the courage to stop the war horses anymore, so I screamed and fled in all directions.
The horses were running faster and faster, and the defeated soldiers were escaping more and more quickly. The battlefield in front of them gradually became empty. Looking through the rolling dust, Xuzi saw General Li Zixiong's flag raised high.
"Don't stop until you fall!" He waved his black knife and proudly announced
"Don't stop until you fall!" The heroes proudly declared, followed behind the general, and stabbed the rebels' main line.
Note 1: In the military system of the Sui Dynasty, the regiment and above were directly divided into armies, but when fighting, the army could be further divided into front, rear, left, middle, right and other parts, so there is a saying of division within the army.
