Reborn in the late Northern Wei Dynasty

Chapter 392 An Lu
Yizhou is the gateway to the west of the Jianghan Plain, and its government is named Yiling.

Unlike Liu Huangshu who went east and traveled across mountains and rivers to participate in Lu Xun's bonfire event, from Jiangling to Yiling can be called a flat river.

Therefore, Yiling is defending Bashu, so if it guards the direction of Jingxiang, there is no need for it, and it will not be of much use.

Gao Cheng sent Hou Yuan to lead three thousand cavalry to attack Yiling, because he believed that Hou Yuan's resourcefulness could make a difference.

His representative works include seven hundred cavalry smashing tens of thousands of rebels in Hanlou who occupied Ji County, and capturing and beheading Liu Lingzhu with more than a thousand cavalry.

If Hou Yuan could live up to his high expectations, it would be a joyous event to attack Yiling with a surprise army while the attention of the world is on Jiangling.

If you can't take it, you won't lose much. At worst, go down to Jiangling first, and then move your troops westward. The road along the way is very easy, and there is no supply pressure.

After Hou Yuan got the order, he dispatched [-] cavalry soldiers and replaced them with Liang Army armor. Before capturing Jingling and Changning, and Hou Jing attacked cities and villages along the way, the Northern Qi captured many soldiers from the Southern Liang Army, so there was no shortage of Liang Army armor.

He also found someone who was willing to cooperate among the surrendered soldiers, and promised Yili to go over the mountain to the city of Yiling. He lied that he was a defeated army and could not enter Jiangling, so he came to Yizhou.

The governor of Yizhou saw that they looked disheartened and looked like fakes, so he opened the gate of the city, trying to take in the defeated soldiers and strengthen the city's defenses. Hou Yuan immediately led 500 people to seize the gate, and all the [-] cavalry in ambush poured into the city , occupying Yiling City in one fell swoop, blocking the way for the Shu land to exit from the Jiangbei to the east.

Hearing the news, Gao Cheng made no secret of his joy, and immediately dispatched 5000 soldiers from the [-] prefectures who rushed to the city to lead the army. Xue Guyan led them to hand over Hou Yuan to garrison Yizhou.

After calling Hou Yuan back, Gao Cheng praised him generously and ordered the civil servants to record his meritorious service and reward him after the war.

Hou Yuan was still tireless, so he ordered [-] cavalrymen to cross the river to Jingnan. If he had the opportunity, he would attack the city, and if he did not have the opportunity, he would loot, but Gao Cheng stopped him.

Gao Cheng understood that Hou Yuan was also anxious to win a prince.

Hou Yuan was awarded the founding father of Yuyang County by Yuan Ye when the Erzhu clan was in power. Since he belonged to the Gao clan after the Guang'a battle, he could not be regarded as the capital of Yuan Cong. It has been almost 20 years now, and he is over five years old. In Xun, he was still the Duke of Yuyang County, so he couldn't help being in a hurry.

Gao Cheng comforted Hou Yuan, and called Hou Jing together, telling them that as long as Jiangling was conquered, they would be awarded kings after returning to the court.

The two immediately called for a battle to attack the city, but they still did not get Gao Cheng's permission. He still had to wait for news from Murong Shaozong and Hu Luguang.

At this time, Murong Shaozong besieged Anlu City for a long time, but he still failed to break through the city.

The name Anlu may be unfamiliar, but when it comes to Jiangxia, one can get an impression. Anlu is the county governor of Jiangxia County, an important town in Jingxiang in the late Han Dynasty.

On the eighth day of July in the second year of Zhaode (549), when Murong Shaozong was preparing to attack the city as usual, he heard that Liu Zhongli led an army of [-] to help.

Murong Shaozong attacked the city all the way before, not only attrition of soldiers, but also divided troops to stay behind. Now there are no more than 3 troops under his command, but only less than [-] troops left. The soldiers are exhausted, and they are already at the end of their strength.

According to normal logic, the army should be led back at this time, but Murong Shaozong ordered the troops to leave the camp at night and enter the camp during the day, creating the illusion of support from the army, in order to scare Liu Zhongli away.

But Liu Zhongli had also read history books, and it happened that he also understood Dong Zhuo's suspicious strategy, so Liu Zhongli smiled confidently at the general:
"Murong Shaozong has no plan, and wants to follow Dong Zhongying's old plan. The generals will see how I defeat the enemy."

No wonder Liu Zhongli underestimated the enemy. Today's Murong Shaozong is not the famous general who quelled Hou Jing's rebellion, defeated Nanliang's [-] elites in the Battle of Hanshan, and made a name for himself in the world.

Although he has made many military achievements since he followed Gao Cheng, he has no real achievements, and his reputation is far inferior to Duan Shao. Shan defeated Xiao Yuanming.

On the other hand, Liu Zhongli, who was not severely beaten, was arrogant, so how could he take Murong Shaozong too seriously.

If Gao Cheng or Duan Shao were leading the army, he might still treat it with caution. As for Murong Shaozong, he heard that Hou Jing had learned the art of war from him, but it didn't take long. Instead, Murong Shaozong wanted to ask Hou Jing for advice. capable people.

Liu Zhongli felt that when he was the prefect of Jingling, it was not that he had never fought against Hou Jing. Although he was defending the city, it ended with Hou Jing withdrawing from the siege. Even Hou Jing was not his opponent, let alone Murong Shaozong.

What's more, Murong Shaozong's suspicious formation made Liu Zhongli convinced that he had no backup, and he thought about it, and thought he had seen through Murong Shaozong's strategy, so Liu Zhongli led the army and went straight to Murong Shaozong's camp.

Murong Shaozong really was bluffing, Liu Zhongli could clearly see the exhaustion on the faces of Qi soldiers from a long distance away.

Before the two armies came into contact, the Qi army fled to the northwest. Liu Zhongli shouted loudly when he saw this:

"The enemy is defeated, all the generals will follow me to kill, and whoever wins the head of Murong Shaozong will be rewarded!"

Murong Shaozong fled in panic, Liang Jun followed behind and chased after him, Liu Zhongli recalled: something is wrong, why is this battle more and more like the Battle of Bagong Mountain.

As the so-called moves are no longer novel, as long as they work, Liu Zhongli thought that he saw through Murong Shaozong's bluff, and faced the temptation to wipe out all the Northern Qi partial divisions, he was so hotheaded that he was fooled in the end.

Throughout the ages, the strategy of luring the enemy has been effective time and time again, but the problem is that the general is too hotheaded to react for a while.

Liu Zhongli was about to restrain his troops, but when he heard Feng Di, the idiot knew he was in an ambush, and Hu Luguang led [-] cavalry to fight out in an instant.

However, Liu Zhongli's army is an elite army after all, unlike the Liang army in Bagong Mountain, who will be in a mess whenever they encounter an ambush.

The [-] Liang soldiers each formed an array to resist the Northern Qi cavalry. Hu Luguang fired several arrows, and the arrows were killed. When he was close, he abandoned his horse bow and turned to use a spear. He rushed to the Liang army's formation first. Shovel shot horizontally, swept the gap, and led the cavalry into the formation.

Hu Luguang saw Liu Zhongli in the crowd wearing bright armor and trying his best to command the battle. He and Gao Jishi looked at each other. Needless to say, the tacit understanding the two had accumulated in the past 19 years, they pulled the horse together and killed To Liu Zhongli.

Without any fear, Liu Zhongli raised his spear to face the fight. If he had a little bit of lack of confidence in himself, he would never have encountered this ambush.

Gao Ji's long spear was swept away by Liu Zhongli, but on the other side, Hu Luguang stabbed Liu Zhongli's chest with a spear. Fortunately, Liang Junqi struck Guo Shanshi's long spear at Hu Luguang's long spear, making it It deviated from the direction and just stabbed Liu Zhongli's right shoulder.

Even so, Liu Zhongli was also terrified. Under the pain, he almost lost his grip on Ma Leng.
