Li Meng was worthy of being a fierce general under Gongsun Shu. When he swung his two big hammers, the surrounding Han soldiers would die if they hit him.
Feng Yi looked at Li Meng, who was killing everyone on the battlefield, frowned, and snorted coldly. He pointed his sword at Li Meng and said, "Take down this thief first!"
Following Feng Yi's order, a group of Han soldiers quickly ran toward Li Meng. When two Han soldiers approached Li Meng, they suddenly separated to the left and right, each holding a tripping rope in their hands.
Li Meng reacted quickly. He clamped the horse's belly with both feet and gave a loud shout. The horse jumped up, and the sweeping rope passed under the horse's hooves.
As soon as the four hooves of the war horse hit the ground, two more Han soldiers rushed forward, still using the horse rope to trip the horse's legs.
Li Meng raised his horse and leaped again, barely able to dodge the tripping rope, but then the third tripping rope came one after another. This time Li Meng couldn't dodge, and the two front hooves of the war horse were tripped by the tripping rope.
A positive one.
The war horse neighed and fell forward, and Li Meng who was sitting on the horse also fell down. Li Meng rolled on the ground repeatedly, and the surrounding Han troops swarmed up, with halberds and spears, and they all aimed at Li Meng.
Stabbed on the body.
Li Meng's body stopped and he jumped up on the ground. He waved his two arms outward, clanking, and all the spears and halberds that were thrust at him were blocked by his double hammers. Li Meng strode forward and swung out his double hammers.
Suddenly, the crowd screamed, and a row of Han soldiers were knocked to the ground with double hammers.
Li Meng's eyes were red with blood at this time, and he continued to step forward, raising his hammers high and striking forward. The faces of the Han soldiers in front of him suddenly changed, and they all ducked back in fear.
Just at this moment, a horse came from the side of Li Meng, and the Han general on the horse slashed at his head with a knife. Li Meng put back his hammer and handed his hammers forward. There was a clang, and the blade struck on the head of the hammer.
Sparks flew everywhere.
Before the Han general could put away his sword, Li Meng swung his arm outwards, and bang, the hammer hit the horse's belly, knocking the horse out sideways, causing both man and horse to fall to the ground.
Li Meng stepped forward and was about to kill the Han general who was struggling to get up under the hammer, when another horse suddenly rushed towards him, and the spear drew a streak of lightning in the air and pierced his face.
"Fuck you!" Li Meng held the hammer in one hand and raised it with all his strength. With a bang and a whoosh, the spear he stabbed spun and flew into the air. The Han general on horseback was shocked to the point where his mouth was broken and his arms were broken.
Already unconscious.
"Just stay here!" Li Meng hit the Han general with a hammer. The Han general screamed in fright, turned to the side, and fell off the horse.
Boom! Boom!
Li Meng's powerful and heavy hammer failed to hit the Han general, but hit the saddle firmly. With a muffled sound, the spine of the war horse was broken, and it fell to the ground with blood flowing from its nose and mouth.
, it won’t work on the spot.
Before Li Meng could continue to pursue the Han generals, four more Han generals rushed from all around him. Their swords and spears gathered together and attacked his vital points. Li Meng roared, swung his hammers, and fought with the four Han generals.
Stand together.
The two sides only had a few encounters, and the weapons of the two Han generals were knocked away by hammers, and the four Han generals were defeated and retreated. Feng Yi was shocked by this scene. This enemy general was really
Extraordinarily brave!
He pointed at Li Meng with his sword and asked, "Who is this person?"
A general next to him frowned and said, "Reporting to the general, this person should be Gongsun Shu's general, Li Meng!"
Feng Yi groaned, narrowed his eyes, and said quietly: "So he is Li Meng! Li Xiong, Li Meng, can be called Gongsun Shu's right-hand man. Today, we absolutely cannot let this thief leave alive!"
As he spoke, he said to the generals on the left and right: "You all come together, you must leave Li Meng to me, no matter life or death!"
All the generals responded one after another, and then each urged their horses to go straight to Li Meng in front.
Li Meng, who was among the rebels, became more and more courageous as he fought. However, the number of soldiers around him became smaller and smaller. Gradually, he could no longer see his own soldiers around him. Everywhere he looked, there were
The Han army was crowded with people.
Li Meng gasped for breath, and smashed out with a hammer, smashing the head of a soldier who rushed towards him, and blood splashed all over his face. Li Meng opened his mouth wide, roared, and raised his hammers.
He shouted to everyone around him: "Who is not afraid of death? Come as soon as possible!"
All around Li Meng, there were corpses of Han army soldiers, some of which had been hammered into shape.
As soon as he finished speaking, swish, swish, and swish, crossbow arrows flew out from the Han army. Li Meng blocked it with his hammer, clanking, and clusters of sparks suddenly appeared in the air, and the crossbow arrows were bounced off one after another.
Li Meng threw off his legs and rushed straight to the Han army camp where the crossbows were densest. The Han army soldiers obviously did not dare to resist its attack and retreated one after another. As the soldiers in front retreated, a shield made of heavy shields was revealed behind them.
Formation. Li Meng was startled at first, then he let out a weird laugh, swung out his two hammers, and hit a shield hard.
Bang! Bang!
With two loud noises, looking at the opposite side, people and shields were knocked back a long way. The soldiers who could hold heavy shields were all burly and strong men, but under Li Meng
In front of him, he was completely vulnerable.
With just one blow, the Han army's shield formation was broken open. Li Meng rushed in through the gap without even thinking. But as soon as he entered, he was greeted by two long knives, one of which struck his neck.
, and took out his chest with one knife.
Li Meng raised his hammer to block, clang, clang, and slashed at the hammers with his swords. The two Han generals who used the swords were hit by the force of the counterattack and took three big steps back. Li Meng was unreasonable and refused to show mercy.
Bu caught up with a Han general, swung his hammer, and was about to smash him to death, when a cold arrow flew from his side.
The arrow was fast and urgent. When Li Meng heard that the evil wind was not good, he tilted his head subconsciously. The arrow passed by his forehead and opened a bloody gash on his forehead. In an instant, blood flowed out.
Sliding into his eyes.
Li Meng subconsciously raised his arms and rubbed his eyes with his sleeves. Taking advantage of this fleeting opportunity, the man in front of him drew out the sword under his ribs and stabbed Li Meng in the lower abdomen.
He turned sideways, but still a little slowly, and the sharp edge of the sword penetrated deeply into his side.
"Ah -" Li Meng screamed in pain, swung his hammer and swept forward. The Han general didn't care about whether it looked good or not, and didn't even have time to draw his sword. He simply abandoned his sword and used it.
He rolled out like a lazy donkey and rolled the wheel on the ground to avoid Li Meng's fatal blow.
Li Meng threw away a hammer and reached back to pull out the sword inserted in his side. At this time, the surrounding Han troops swarmed forward, and those at the front were heavy shield soldiers. People carried heavy shields.
They surrounded Li Meng in a circle and used shields to imprison him.
"Get away!" Li Meng roared, twisting his body vigorously, trying to knock away the heavy shields squeezing around him, but the wounds under his ribs reduced his strength sharply, and the Han soldiers around him all used their
With all his strength, he used his heavy shield to resist Li Meng.
Just when Li Meng kept exerting force to break away from the squeeze of the Han army's heavy shield, one spear after another thrust out from the gap in the shield. Puff puff, a series of muffled sounds were heard in the helix, and each spear
They all penetrated deeply into Li Meng's body.
Li Meng's eyes widened and he let out a strange cry. He swung the hammer with one hand and swept outwards. Bang, bang, bang! Three heavy shield soldiers were unable to dodge and were hit in the head by the hammer. The three heads were like three quilts.
Broken watermelon.
Three heavy shield soldiers were killed with one hammer, but several more spears were thrust out from the gaps between the heavy shields, still piercing Li Meng's body deeply.
Next, the muffled sound of popping was heard, and the sharp spears went in and out of Li Meng's body. Li Meng couldn't count how many holes were stabbed in his body.
In the shield, blood flowed gurglingly to the ground. After more than ten seconds, Li Meng stopped moving. He stood there, his eyes wide open, but there was no luster in them, and all that was left was ashes.
His body did not fall down because his body was being squeezed tightly by the heavy shield and he could not fall down at all.
When a Han general saw that Li Meng was dead, he squeezed in from the crowd and approached him. He raised his knife and dropped it with a click, and Li Meng's head fell off his neck.
The severed head just fell into the arms of a heavy shield soldier. The latter let go of the heavy shield, raised Li Meng's severed head with both hands, and screamed.
The Han general who beheaded Li Meng shouted loudly: "The enemy general is dead! Kill all the enemy troops!" After Li Meng's death, the morale of the Han army was so high that they launched an all-out attack on the remaining Gongsun Shu's troops.
Li Meng, Gongsun Shu's favorite general, died outside Chang'an City.
Two brothers, Li Xiong and Li Meng, followed Gongsun Shu in his rebellion against Mang. Later, they assisted Gongsun Shu and dominated Shu. After Liu Xuan became emperor, he sent troops to suppress Gongsun Shu. Brothers Li Xiong and Li Meng, one provided strategies and the other was in front of the battle.
In the battle, Liu Xuan's army was severely defeated. Even though the Red Eyebrow Army later ran out of ammunition and food in Chang'an and had to leave, they did not dare to go south to Shu and were forced to go north to Liangzhou.
As the saying goes, if an earthen jar is not broken away from the wellhead, a general will inevitably die in front of the battle. A tiger general like Li Meng who bravely defeated the three armies eventually died in front of the two armies, and ended up with his body and head missing.
In this battle, Gongsun Shu's army was already at an overall disadvantage. Now that the general Li Meng had died in battle, the remaining soldiers had no intention of fighting. Yuan Fu, with thousands of remnants, luckily broke through the encirclement and fled south.
This battle broke out in the fourth year of Jianwu, that is, AD 28. This battle was the largest military force Gongsun Shu sent to invade Sanfu. Likewise, it was also the most miserable defeat.
Feng Yi was really powerful in commanding the army. There was almost no weakness in him. He was both good at running the army and good at fighting. All the officers and men under his command were sincerely convinced of him and looked up to him.
Gongsun Shu was afraid of Feng Yi and sent a large number of spies in the Sanfu area, often doing bad things secretly.
For example, he bribed local officials, gave Feng Yi small shoes, used various excuses not to transport grain and grass, and used meticulous work to spread the word among the people of Sanfu that Feng Yi would be the king of Xianyang.
Feng Yi never tired of Gongsun Shu's dirty tricks. When Gongsun Shu's dirty tricks fell on the head of the imperial envoy and secretly assassinated Li Bing, Feng Yi keenly realized that the opportunity had come.
Didn't Gongsun Shu try every possible means to get him away? He fulfilled his wish.
Out of such considerations, Feng Yi returned to Luoyang and partnered with Liu Xiu to stage a drama of questioning.
Everyone thought that Feng Yi was imprisoned in Tingwei Prison, but in fact, that was not the case at all. Feng Yi quietly returned to Chang'an, secretly collected kerosene in the Sanfu area, and set up an ambush in Chang'an City.
As a result, Gongsun Shu, who thought his plot was successful, did not doubt that he was there, did not listen to Mo Yan's dissuasion, and insisted on sending troops and three assistants.
Li Meng, the general under Gongsun Shu, led an army of 100,000 to capture Chang'an, but he ran into a trap designed by Feng Yi.
Feng Yi took advantage of the characteristics of Chang'an's city defense to set up a fire oil array in the corridor between the inner and outer city walls, and broke into the city. Gongsun Shu's army, who was stunned by the victory, all fell into Feng Yi's trap.
This fire directly burned out the main force of Gongsun Shu's army, and there was no suspense about the ensuing battle.
Li Meng was determined to fight to the death, and in the end he did what he wished and died for his country.
Only Yuan Fu, with thousands of remaining soldiers and defeated generals, broke through the siege and escaped. This battle was undoubtedly a heavy blow to Gongsun Shu. Not only did he lose a hundred thousand troops, but most importantly, he also lost Li Meng.
General.
For Luoyang, this big victory can be described as exciting.
This battle also made the already famous Dashu General Feng Yi even more famous. Mentioning the Western Expeditionary Army and the General of the Expedition to the West, the common people all raised their thumbs up and sincerely praised: Amazing!
