Chapter 248 Destroy the three major forces in a row
The two men spoke at the same time, and the shouts of killing in the fierce battle quickly decreased. A large number of Wagangzhai soldiers breathed a sigh of relief, put down their weapons and surrendered. This quickly spread to other places, and large areas of Wagang soldiers surrendered. Only a few bandits with evil intentions in their hearts.
Still resisting, these are cancers in the rebel army. They are bandits and robbers themselves. After joining the Wagang army, they use their strength to do more evil.
No one was polite to those who resisted, and they were all surrounded and wiped out.
In less than half an hour, all remaining resistance was wiped out, and the entire Wagang Village returned to calm. Ye Chen turned around and walked to Zhai Rang, who was sitting on the steps of the Heroes Hall, and said in a deep voice:
"Everything is settled, please get on your way!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his head sharply and swung the four-meter-long sword...
"Father!..."
A cry echoed in the square.
After Zhai Rang's death, the Wagang Army completely collapsed. Except for a few who fled early when the situation was bad, the rest basically surrendered. At this point, the Wagang Army that roamed the lower reaches of the Yellow River disappeared from the stage of fighting for hegemony.
After leaving the aftermath to the envoys sent by Chaoyan, Ye Chen reorganized his army and marched south, preparing to attack Du Fuwei, Guo Zitong and other troops.
In fact, there are still several small forces in the north of the Yellow River, but Ye Chen doesn't like them and has no time to attack. There is only one year before the opening of the War Temple. He must pacify the world within a year. It is definitely impossible to completely pacify the world, but he
You can first defeat the big forces such as Li Tang, Wang Shichong, and Wagang Army. Even if he is not around, it will not be difficult to bulldoze the remaining small forces with Yang Guang's methods.
Du Fuwei's tribe is located in Xuzhou and the south, occupying the north of the Huaihe River, and faces the Chu army Li Zitong's tribe south of the Huaihe River across the river. Originally, the two armies had been having disputes and frictions, but as Ye Chen defeated Wa with overwhelming force
Gang Jun, the two armies have reached an armistice agreement, and Du Fuwei mobilized the main force to gather in Xuzhou to prepare for his attack.
The 70,000-strong army divided into three routes and moved south, defeating the enemy formations and other places, and finally encircled Xuzhou, a place where hundreds of battles were fought.
The strategic location of Xuzhou is extremely important. It is a strategic location both in ancient times and today. Du Fuwei originally stationed 30,000 troops here. After the armistice with Guo Zitong, the main force went north and gathered nearly 80,000 troops here.
This 80,000-strong army is not a miscellaneous army like the Wagang Army, which includes the old, weak, sick and disabled, but a regular army composed of all strong men. It may not be as good as the regular army of the Sui Dynasty, but it is not far behind, especially now that it occupies a defensive position.
The city has an advantage and it is not easy to capture it.
If other forces want to capture Xuzhou, which Du Fuwei is personally in charge of, there is no possibility of attacking the city without more than three times the military advantage. Xuzhou City itself has 80,000 troops, which is not a small number. Even if they face more than a dozen people in a frontal field battle,
No army of ten thousand will be at a disadvantage, not to mention that it still occupies the advantage of a fortified city, making it extremely difficult to capture it.
Unfortunately, the Sui army had a pervert like Ye Chen who went beyond the rules. He first surrounded Xuzhou City, then sent people to block the three gates with stones so tightly that they could not be opened, and then led his army to attack from the main gate.
He transformed into a human siege vehicle and blasted open the west gate of Xuzhou, led the main force to attack the city from the west gate, and fought step by step, killing them step by step.
To deal with Du Fuwei, you can't directly penetrate the central army like you did with the Wagang Army. The Wagang Army is said to be a second- and third-rate army with extremely poor combat effectiveness and execution capabilities, while Du Fuwei's army is all veterans and has a large number of soldiers.
There are more troops than the Sui army. He wants to attack the main palace of the Chinese army. Du Fuwei only needs to avoid him and have a general lead his army to penetrate from the left and right wings where the central army is out of touch. He can immediately divide the Sui army into four parts.
Sometimes, even if you win a melee, the losses will be huge.
Of course he would not make such a mistake. The central army, left and right wings responded, and the rear army followed closely, using him as an arrow to push forward step by step.
Although Xuzhou City is a big city, it is still just a city no matter how big it is. Hundreds of thousands of troops from both sides spread out to divide the city into two. At the front line of the battle, the soldiers of both sides were almost connected one by one from the east to the west of the city.
If someone can look down from the air, they can see that the entire Xuzhou city is divided into two, half with black armor and half with gray armor. There is an arrow in the middle of the black-armored Sui army, which goes straight into the gray-armored army.
Although Ye Chen was still unstoppable, he did not rush out too far alone like before. The distance from his headquarters was never more than a hundred meters, and he pressed step by step towards the city lord's palace in the center of Xuzhou City, which was Du Fuwei.
Ministry's headquarters.
Generally, the headquarters of the city guard is in the center of the city, which is as close as possible to the four city gates so that it is convenient to issue orders. This time, Du Fuwei was personally in charge of Xuzhou, also in the city lord's palace.
Half an hour later, the Sui army's central army had already attacked Xuzhou City, but the left and right wings had not gone a kilometer away. The battle line was drawn into a mountain shape. Du Fuwei thought he saw an opportunity and sent two armies to attack the two wings and the center.
The military junction wants to cut off the connection between the three armies.
Unfortunately, Ye Chen had already made preparations. He placed the most elite troops there and sent two generals to guard them. No matter how hard Du's troops attacked, they could not capture them.
At the same time, Ye Chen also began to attack the city lord's palace, where the two sides started a fierce battle.
Du Fuwei seemed to have mobilized all his main forces here, and densely packed troops continued to pour in. Both sides were furious here.
The killing lasted for an entire afternoon. At night, Du Fuwei's troops were exhausted. Ye Chen took the opportunity to attack the city lord's palace and killed Du Fuwei and his subordinates who were commanding the city lord's palace in one fell swoop. No one was left alive.
kill.
Du Fuwei didn't know whether he didn't know Ye Chen's martial arts or was too confident, so he stayed in the City Lord's Mansion without giving up. When Ye Chen rushed into the City Lord's Mansion alone, he laughed and said that Ye Chen was seeking his own death.
The result was no surprise. The whole army in the command center was wiped out. Du Fuwei's generals in the city fought individually and were quickly divided and surrounded. By midnight, the fighting in the city was completely over. The entire 80,000-strong Du Fuwei army was killed and more than 50,000 were killed, leaving only
Less than 30,000 remaining soldiers were forced to surrender. Ye Chen blocked the other three gates of Xuzhou City and trapped them in the city. If they did not surrender, they would die.
As soon as Du Fuwei died, his rule immediately fell into pieces. The army descended wherever it went. In less than half a month, the famous Du Fuwei became history.
Ye Chen led his troops non-stop and continued southward, confronting Guo Zitong's troops on the bank of the Huaihe River. However, at the same time, he secretly used the power of the Huailong King's Dahuai Gang to secretly cross the river in another section of the Huaihe River and directly attack the Chu army on the other side of the river. The main force
Then he took the opportunity to cross the Huaihe River and defeated the Chu army in one fell swoop.
After leading his army to capture a county by the Huaihe River, the Sui army's offensive suddenly stopped. Within a few days, Guo Zitong's general Zhang Ling suddenly rebelled and led an army of 20,000 to surrender to the Sui army and occupied the important town of Yangzhou. Ye Chen immediately set off.
He and Zhang Ling attacked from both sides, defeated Guo Zitong's main force, and beheaded Guo Zitong outside Hangzhou City.
