Chapter 1640 Guan Sheng and Liu Yu, there must be a break! (2)
As time goes by, Liu Yu's sinister and mean face seems to be shrouded by a dark cloud. His unforgettable hatred for Xiao Tang is precisely because of him that ruined his dream of becoming an emperor with the support of a golden man. However, not only was Liu Yu unable to vent his anger by cutting Xiao Tang to pieces as he wished, but when he heard that the other party was planning to launch a full-scale attack on the military state he occupied, he was so frightened that he seemed to have no chance of winning.
The troops and horses he currently controls can withstand the resistance of Xiao Tang's rebel army for a while, but they will never be able to fight with the opponent to the end. Liu Yu also knows that his only hope is to plead for the protection of the Jin Dynasty. Fortunately, the Jin Dynasty did not There were still nobles such as Wanyan Talan and others on the side, and Liu Yu knew that he could only try his best to maintain the existing army and bring it to the border of Hebei. As long as the north was still under the control of the Jin Kingdom, he could still have a place to stay. However, he could still How much vitality is retained is also the capital of how much value one can still use in the eyes of the Kingdom of Jin.
Therefore, Liu Yu was unwilling to give up. Since the several military prefectures occupied by Jingdong Road could not withstand the fierce attack of Xiao Tang's rebel army, the only remaining Jinan territory had to be abandoned. He took the money, food and wealth in the city overnight and set off to the north. The journey of escape.
What makes Liu Yu even more resentful is that the puppet Qi army and horses, whose fighting will has been almost exhausted, are originally composed of surrendered troops from the Song Dynasty and Jiangyang thieves who are doing evil everywhere. Liu Yu knows that they are willing to obey his orders for nothing more. It is because of the support of the Jin Dynasty that we can still gather all the remaining soldiers and horses to go north to join the Jin Dynasty. It is also because many of the generals who defected from the country and surrendered to the Jin Dynasty, like Liu Yu, can never look back. However, even with the current fate Although he was still tied up in one place, Liu Yu also found that he was now increasingly unable to control the pseudo-Qi generals who had already had their own agendas.
For example, Chen Xizhen's bunch of birds...
Before abandoning Jinan and withdrawing to the north, Chen Xizhen sent his cronies to communicate with the Jin Kingdom. He had also made his own decision before, proposing to divide the remaining troops into two and go north towards Yucheng and Linyi to avoid being taken seriously by Xiao Tang. The rebels surrounded and intercepted them and were captured. Although Liu Yu was unwilling, he was shocked to find that his right to speak was no longer as good as that of Chen Daozi, who also had close contacts with the Jin Dynasty. Among the puppet Qi army, such as Li Cheng and other generals who still needed to rely on seemed to have turned to that guy's side.
Liu Yu suddenly thought in his heart that Chen Xizhen seemed to have a different intention, but he was planning to ride on my head. When Beitou came under the rule of the Jin Dynasty, he only had to please the nobles in the Jin Dynasty, and the debt would be slowly settled. Just as he was counting, a military general suddenly came to report: "Your Highness, King Qi, there are soldiers and horses blocking the official road in front of you. If you look at the flags on the opposite side, they are also enemy troops under the command of Xiao Tang's servant!"
"What!?"
Liu Yu was horrified when he heard this, and he almost fell off his horse. Soon, he and several other Puppet Qi generals who were also looking frightened could faintly hear shouts coming from the opposite side. They were located on the road to Linyi. In the wilderness of Pingchuan near the official road to the Yellow River in the north, thousands of troops and horses were already in formation, and hundreds more cavalry were arrayed in front of the formation. Among the three cavalry generals who were in charge of the troops and horses, one of them was alive. With a red beard, upturned nostrils, and a face as black as the bottom of a pot, his ugly and ferocious appearance makes people feel timid at a glance. The cavalry general had an angry look on his face, and the steel blade he held in his hand reflected the sharp edge of the sword. Shining out of the snowy cold light, carrying a bow and arrow cluster on his back, and wearing a chain of armor, he showed a fierce power; while the other cavalry general was fair and upright, but the dragon-scale seven-star armor he wore Wearing a splendid war robe, the tip of the tight spear in his hand is also flashing with cold light. A pair of dazzling eyes are revealed under the white Fanyang felt hat with a pinch of red tassel on his head, looking like he is leaping with a spear. , also revealed the heroic spirit of Qianzhang Lingyun!
The cavalry general who is between the two cavalry generals has a green indigo scarf on his head, a parrot-green flower-clustered war robe on his armor with a ring of beasts, and in his hand is the green dragon carved on the sword.
The edge of the Yanyue Sword also exudes a frightening cold light. Look at the majestic general's nine-foot long body, two-foot long beard, red phoenix eyes, and silkworm eyebrows. He looks like a Han Dynasty general. In the last three minutes of the Han Dynasty, Guan Yu, the Hou Tinghou of the Han Dynasty, reappeared in the world!
Those poles were embroidered with the words "Tian Yongjun", "Dadao Guan Sheng", "Choujun Ma Xuanzan", and "Jingmuxuan Hao Siwen". Under the military flags flying in the wind, Guan Sheng narrowed his red phoenix eyes and looked straight towards The soldiers and horses fleeing here in front will pass by. Although the puppet Qi forces are now declining, the remaining troops are now gathered in one place. Looking at it, there are still about 20,000 soldiers and horses.
The Tianyong Army under Guan Sheng's command was composed of some of the trusted soldiers he had recruited in Pudong, Xizhou, as well as the Forbidden Army officers and soldiers who had been left behind in Daming Prefecture and were willing to defect to the Xiao Tang Dynasty. However, after the casualties in several battles, the establishment is now roughly maintained at about 5,000 people. It can be said that the force that can be used at the moment is extremely thin. Liu Yu, the traitor, abandoned the city and fled north and fled here. Guan Shengqing I don't know how much sacrifice I will have to make if I have to lead these five thousand men to shoulder the important task of dragging the puppet Qi troops here before brother Xiao Tang sends pursuing troops from Licheng, Jinan.
"Brother Xuanzan, you will lead the infantry here to hold the position. Brother Hao Siwen and I will personally lead the cavalry troops to attack the enemy's position, trying to intercept and kill Liu Yu, the leader of the country's thieves, and fight here. No matter what, , and we cannot teach this traitor who is trying to sneak to take another step north!"
The Qinglong Yanyue Sword has been slowly lifted, and the red curly red rabbit horse riding under Guan Sheng's crotch snorted restlessly, and then began to trot, slowly accelerating. Guan Sheng said After all, the Tianyong Army was a cavalry army with only a few battalions of infantry. If Liu Yu was eager to break through the defense line and immediately launched an all-out attack, most of the cavalry athletes would just stay in place and defend, unable to show their full potential on the battlefield. With the advantage of high-speed galloping and being outnumbered, I am afraid that a large number of puppet Qi soldiers and horses will be forced to break through the blockade and flee north. Therefore, after careful consideration, Guan Sheng decided to take the initiative with Hao Siwen to attack and concentrate all the strength of the cavalry. He went straight to the enemy's formation and used his bravery to seize the flag and kill the general in an attempt to kill the culprit Liu Yu from his horse in the chaotic battle group.
However, with such an arrangement, the battle situation will inevitably be very dangerous for Guan Sheng and Hao Siwen, who must go straight to the heart of the enemy's formation, or for Xuan Zan, who leads a small number of remaining infantry to form a defensive formation.
After hearing Guan Sheng's order, Xuan Zan responded cleanly: "Yes!" He then raised his sword and shouted, commanding the rest of the infantry soldiers to form a dense formation, preparing to resist the attack that the puppet Qi army and horses would inevitably launch on the opposite side. Attack violently.
In fact, Xuan Zan also knows very well that people make plans and God makes things happen. Brother Xiao Tang and Military Advisor Xiao Jiasui have made the most appropriate arrangements as possible in order to annihilate the pseudo-Qi forces controlled by Liu Yu in one fell swoop, but Liu Yu's guy If you insist on escaping and really meet on a narrow road here, the rebels from the five states including Deng will also have to pay a certain amount of casualties compared to the order to capture Qing. The soldiers of the Tianyong Army will have to resist the desperate counterattack of the remaining Qi troops, and the pressure will also be high. It will definitely be much bigger.
It was almost 5,000 to 20,000. Ordinarily, even if the guy who taught Liu Yu escaped, it could be said that he was powerless and would not be prosecuted and convicted under military law. Xuan Zan had also seen many generals who were afraid of death in the Song Dynasty's imperial army.
If faced with such a battle, if there is a reason to excuse themselves, then the soldiers will definitely be timid and cower, avoid the enemy's front, and then shirk responsibility to the court...
But what Xuan Zan knew more clearly was that with his proud and heroic temperament, Guan Sheng's brother was definitely not one of those generals who was afraid of death. Especially when he had the opportunity to eradicate the traitor in one fell swoop, he would have to go through a great deal of trouble.
It's so dangerous that we have to trap those guys here. Even if we risk our lives, we still have to teach Liu Yu to kill him here!
