Forty thousand officers and soldiers armed to the teeth faced rebel bandits with half the number of them, but they could not hold out as long as twenty thousand farmers in front of sixty thousand troops? Yu Wenshu could not accept this answer no matter what. He quickly swept to his right wing again
After a quick glance, I found that the right-wing troops were still collapsing like ice melting. Almost everyone was running away, running away shamelessly in front of the rebels who were less than half their number and with inferior weapons. No reason, no excuse. If these
If the timid cowards are willing to look back, they will find that only a few people in the army behind them were killed and few were captured. The rebels did not cause much damage to their own people at all, and they were not willing to tangle with the defeated ones.
He just stuck close to the officers and soldiers, following them like a shadow, chasing the officers and soldiers who had lost their courage and approaching the Chinese army commander's flag.
"Scrap!" Yu Wenshu cursed in a low voice and turned back to look ahead. He saw another group of rebels being "peeled" down by the officers and soldiers. Most of them were killed on the spot. But there were a few
, slowly climbed up in the pool of blood, supported the broken body with a broken wooden stick, and stood in front of his companions like a mountain.
The blood had dyed the cloth armor of those people completely red, but they did not know the pain, and they refused to kneel down and beg for forgiveness. They just shouted loudly and fearlessly blocked the swords and spears that were stabbing them again.
"I would rather die in Henan than go to Liaodong!"
"I would rather die in Henan than go to Liaodong!"
The shouts were more desperate than the last, and more exciting than the last.
"They are asking for death!" Yu Wenshu saw the intentions of those people from the movements of the rebels in front. Li Zixiong assigned 20,000 people as bait just to delay time! Using the 20,000 lives won
At that time, as the former general of You Wuhou, he disrupted the right wing of the army, and then attacked You Wuhou with lightning speed. Then, he used You Wuhou's chaotic troops to attack the Youyu Guards, and then used You Wuhou's chaotic troops to attack the Youyu guards.
He used the defeated troops of the right imperial guard to attack the central army of officers and soldiers. This move is called the reverse rolling bead curtain in tactics. It was created by General Wang Yang Shuang. The key is to find the opponent's weak link and use a small breakthrough to expand the chaos to the entire opponent.
Army. During the Western Expedition, Yang Shuang used this trick with 20,000 Sui troops to defeat a hundred thousand Turkic wolf cavalry. The Turks did not dare to knock on the pass for more than ten years. However, the great general Wang Yang Shuang at that time led the strongest troops in the Sui Dynasty.
The frontier army, but at this time, Li Zixiong used tens of thousands of poorly trained and poorly armored rebels!
Yu Wenshu felt that his throat was sweet and the sunlight in front of his eyes was getting darker and darker. He could not forgive himself for his negligence. He considered everything, even considering not giving the country boy a chance to make meritorious deeds again. The only thing he ignored was
Li Zixiong's original identity and his prestige in Youwuhou. Today, the key to victory lies in speed. If the officers and soldiers can eat up the rebels directly in front of the team before the collapse of the right wing threatens the central army. Then
The formation can still be closed, and the rebels still cannot escape the fate of being surrounded. If the rebels are allowed to take the lead, the outcome of this battle may be unpredictable!
He quickly judged the situation and considered whether to send the rear guard to the right wing. Doing so would give the Zhuzi a chance to show his face again. From now on, it would be increasingly difficult for the Yuwen family to subdue him. Moreover, the soldiers of the Xiongwu Camp surrendered with new returns.
There are many players, and once they are overwhelmed by the insurrectionary soldiers, there will be no more chess pieces in their hands.
It had only been half an hour since the official contact between the enemy and the enemy, but Yuwen Shiji felt as anxious as if he had been waiting for a hundred years.
The entire right-wing army is collapsing, and the fastest escaping rebels have already reached the Xiongwu Camp. Wave after wave of soldiers have been sent to warn the Chinese army, but there has been no reply from my father. Listening to the thunderous drums
With the tsunami-like shouts of killing, Yu Wenshiji felt that his forehead had begun to "smoke". He could not imagine what hundreds of thousands of Sui troops, his family and the Sui court would face after the entire right wing collapsed.
ending!
Once this battle fails, the other Sui armies that outflank Li Zixiong's retreat will definitely disperse. Luoyang City will no longer be owned by the Sui Dynasty. The Sui Dynasty, which has lost the last of its soldiers, will also be soaked by rain.
It collapsed as quickly as a wall of earth. The Yuwen family would become the first sacrifice before the fall of the Sui Dynasty, and the reputation, wealth and power accumulated over more than a hundred years would disappear.
But now he couldn't take any action. Before the Chinese army issued an order, as the guard and supervisor of the army, 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 of the flag was simple and clear, and Yu Wenshiji raised it high.
The eight-foot-long tree pointed diagonally to the right and said, "Xiongwuying, follow me to defeat the enemy!" (Note 1)
"Destroy the enemy -!" There were sparse responses from all around, with no strength at all. Yu Wenshiji tightened the reins of the horse so hard that the horse that had already rushed out of the queue raised its front hooves. "Brothers, follow me to kill the thief!
"He turned around and shouted again. There were still few responses from 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 official order from the general.
Beads of sweat quickly dripped from Yuwen Shiji's temples. He instantly understood the reason why the generals refused to follow him. Li Xu did not move. He was only supervising the army. He had the right to counsel military affairs and supervise the generals, but he had no power to lead the troops.
Attack. Everyone is usually friends. The general Li Xu is gentle 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 children to compete with Li Xu.
Quan's intention has been very obvious. At this time, when the soldiers listen to orders, they naturally have to consider the difference in status between the chief general and the supervisor.
"My Yuwen family will not..." 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 that the entire Xiongwu Camp now knows how the Yuwen family repaid their savior. "The Yuwen family's repayment" has long been a laughing stock in everyone's mind. Unless they are fools, no one will believe that the noble Yuwen family will repay others.
Keep the benefits in mind.
"Xu Zi!" Yuwen Shiji turned around and shouted at Li Xu. Li Xu could not disobey the general's order at a critical moment, otherwise, even if he had a gold medal to protect his life, the Sui Dynasty military law would not be able to spare him. But as a powerful warrior
As the commander of the camp, he has countless ways and means to reduce the combat effectiveness of his subordinates. Yu Wenshi and Yi Jidu Ren can now come up with more than a dozen ways to use both covert and covert methods. He can delay time, he can work without exerting any effort, and he even
You can 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 from the chaos will be passive in avoiding the battle.
Yu Wenshi and Ping Su were originally much smarter than Li Xu, but at this moment when the safety of his family was at stake, he couldn't help but feel uneasy. He finally understood why Li Xu could still interact with him calmly after being so obviously ostracized. "He
He had expected today, and 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, Murong Luo, etc. had colluded with him a long time ago, just to want Yuwen Shiji to
The family is ruined!" Yuwen Shiji wiped his face with his palms, 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, and today was the right time. He raised it for the third time.
After a while, Yuwen Shiji's shouts became hysterical, "Young men of the Yuwen family, come after me. Let them see our blood!"
After shouting, he loosened the reins and spurred his horse outward. The horse under his crotch roared, "Hey! Yo!" and raised its front hooves high, almost throwing 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 rushed to Yu Wenshi and his side at some point, 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! You
Look at the right guards, their soldiers are no less than ours." He was clumsy and couldn't make much sense. The concerned expression on his face and the strength in his arms had made the madman wake up instantly.
You Wuhou has already collapsed. You Yuwei tried to stop You Wuhou and the rebels, but was defeated by the defeated troops. At this moment, Xiongwuying rushed forward, which was tantamount to repeating You Yuwei's tragedy. They had no choice but to
With 30,000 soldiers and horses, there is absolutely no way to stop the more than 40,000 defeated soldiers who were in a state of panic and the tens of thousands of rebels who followed the footsteps of the defeated soldiers and shouted and killed them. Yu Wenshiji knew that Xuzi was right, and finally understood that everyone was not
It’s not a deliberate act of revenge for the Yuwen family’s arrogance. But what to do? The right guard’s command has begun to waver. If the Xiongwu camp doesn’t 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 crossbows to protect the middle army!" Li Xu pointed with a black knife at the connection between the right guard and the middle army, and ordered in a tone that left no room for doubt. "Pull out."
Form an oblique formation and use the trumpet to order the troops to retreat. Regardless of whether they are rebels or rebels, as long as they approach, they will be shot immediately!"
"Yes!" Yu Wenshiji, who was confused, nodded, as if he was a puppet at the mercy of others. This is a hopeless method, and it may have 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 without mercy.
"Fighting Cavalry, come out!" Li Xu settled down Yu Wenshu, turned around, and shouted at his brothers. Yu Wenshu could put all the credit for his past achievements on his son's head. But today, what happened several times
No one can erase the facts before Shiwanpaoze.
Murong Luo and Li Mengchang each stepped out of the formation with more than 2,000 cavalry. These were the last cavalry to arrive in Liyang and were not scattered and integrated into other regiments. After two battles in Liyang, it was verified that Li Xu and Yu Wenshi
Both the emperor and the emperor 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 army, they named it Xiaocai Army. (Note 2)
"Unharness the horse!" Before Yuwenshi could figure out what Xuzi wanted to do, he heard another absurd and bold order.
The cavalry of the Sui Dynasty was well protected, and the forelimbs of the war horses were usually covered with horse armor. The Xiongwu camp was not a regular soldier, so the horse armor was not uniformly equipped. Some of the horses were tightly wrapped, while some of the horses had no cover.
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 uniforms from all the war horses. What 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 their horse armors, and threw the heavy horse armors to the ground. (To be continued)
