Chapter 220 During the Battle of Tongguan

"Chuangwang! Brothers can't stand it any longer. Hurry up and tell the Eighth King Zhang Xianzhong to lead his army straight to the Lancao River, and urge Cao Cao and Ge Liyan's group to tear the hole from He Crazy and rush out along the Lancao River. , it will be easy to handle in Henan!"

Li Zicheng held the old felt hat on his head tightly in his hands, squinted his slender eyes, staring at the flags of the officers and soldiers moving quickly in the distance, and heard the sound of shouts getting closer and closer.

"Gao Yigong!" Gao Yingxiang called his nephew, "Go to the Eight Great Kings of Xiying and tell him to quickly let his four generals press up and help Lao Cao tear his mouth open. I, Gao Yingxiang, let him take the first share of the city and stockade in Xiying!"

Gao Yigong took a dozen of his own soldiers and whipped the horse's buttocks fiercely, and rushed towards Zhang Xianzhong's camp in the west camp, where he was supported by a puff of smoke.

"Array! Prepare to attack!"

After arranging a messenger to urge the breakout, Gao Yingxiang got on his horse, commanded his old battalion men to stand in formation, and began to block Zuo Guangxian's pursuers.He knew very well that if he didn't repel these guys first, he wouldn't be able to leave even if he wanted to!

Li Zicheng and his wife also led their remnants to line up next to Hao Yaoqi's troops.Under his banner, Liu Zongmin looked enviously at the fine armor of Waving Flag next to him, "Old Hao, when did you get this suit?"

"Just now! It was picked off from Zuo Guangxian's nephew! Just for this, Lao Zuo and I fought for more than ten miles, and then returned his nephew's body to him, so I stopped chasing me! Damn, it's because of this armor. More than a dozen of my brothers were killed, but it's still worth it! Lao Liu, go on!"

With a flash of cold light, Hao Yaoqi threw the precious knife made of iron and steel with its scabbard over. Liu Zongmin didn't even look at it, but stretched out his hand to grab it, and the knife was as docile as a pigeon he had raised. lying in his hands.Using his blacksmith's professional eyes to appraise this knife, Liu Zongmin had to admit that it was a good guy he had never seen before. [

"Our old Liu now knows why those dogs work so hard! It would be worth it if Master Liu's head could be exchanged for such a knife! There is a place to find silver. Such a precious knife. I am afraid there is no place to find money! "

"Brother Jiexuan, I'll give you this knife!" Hao Yaoqi yelled not far away.

"How is this good?!"

"Jiexuan, brother Waqi has some good intentions. You just accept it. There will be a damned ghost in a while. If it hits your knife, you just grab another one and give it to brother Waqi!"

Li Zicheng, who was under his own banner, laughed and cheered for the two giants who broke into the camp.

soon.The Western Front troops of the Ming Army, dominated by Zuo Guangxian, overwhelmed them.

Unlike other troops in the Qin army, Zuo Guangxian's subordinates were all cavalry from Gansu and Ningxia. They basically had nothing to do with the peasant army mainly in Yan'an Prefecture in northern Shaanxi. They had fought several times over the years. Zuo Guangxian's troops are all climaxes of peasant army abuse.As soon as the two families met, public and private enmities were immediately intertwined, and there was no nonsense, and people rushed to kill one place.

Gao Yingxiang commanded the old battalion to go straight to Zuo Guangxian's servants, as long as these troops were killed, Zuo Guangxian would be defeated without a fight, and Zuo Guangxian, as an experienced general, immediately commanded his servants The cavalry who were facing Gao Yingxiang rushed forward.

An extremely tragic bloody battle took place on Pingchuan between the two small earth mountains.Facing the temptation of huge material interests, the soldiers of the Ming army and the low-level officers broke out with unprecedented fighting power, dividing and encircling the cavalry of the peasant army, and the soldiers of the peasant army who were trapped in the encirclement were constantly struggling to kill, while using the most vicious Cursing the enemy in front of him with the vocabulary, he fought against the officers and soldiers with the idea of ​​killing every one he killed.

In melee, sometimes they confront each other alone, forming generals against generals and soldiers against soldiers; in a blink of an eye, perhaps because a certain leader or partial general is surrounded by the opponent, his servants or personal soldiers rush forward and become a battle. A bloody melee.After a period of melee, the situation of generals against generals and soldiers against soldiers reappeared.Sometimes it was Zuo Guang who forced Gao Yingxiang to take a few steps back first, and sometimes Gao Yingxiang forced Zuo Guang to take a few steps back. The two sides started a brutal tug-of-war, and they all endured exhaustion to see who could last until the last moment.

The balance of victory seemed to be slowly tilting towards Zuo Guangxian's side.

Gao Yingxiang discovered this very keenly.

Time and space do not belong to the peasant army, and it will be bad for him if it is delayed for a long time. Moreover, he only has this little capital in his hands. I can take care of him!It is still the best strategy to find a way to repel the army in front of us first, and then quickly advance eastward to break through!

Thinking of this, he waved the long sword in his hand. "retreat!"

Seeing Gao Yingxiang's cavalry quickly retreating to the east, cheers erupted in the officer's camp. After all, the bandits couldn't hold on anymore!We won! [

Seeing that the peasant army kept throwing gold and silver artifacts, embroidered silk, satin and leather robes on the ground as they retreated, some officers and soldiers couldn't hold back anymore, so they chased after them on their prancing horses.

If it was the Ming army in Qi Jiguang's era, they could turn a blind eye to such a situation and wait until they defeated their opponents before cleaning up the battlefield. Unfortunately, decades have passed, and the Qi family army of that year also disappeared on the bank of the Hun River .

"Anyone who dares to act without authorization, beheaded!"

After all, Zuo Guangxian is a general who has fought on the battlefield for many years. He saw that although Gao Yingxiang's men and horses left a lot of property when they retreated, but the troops were not chaotic, he was a little confused. To stop the greed for goods, he threatened to stop this chaos.

However, when the military order was issued, two thousand generals had already rushed out with two or three hundred cavalry. Seeing this, the other officers rushed out, fearing that they would not be able to grab it. !

"not good!"

When Zuo Guang first saw this, he knew something was wrong, and when he fought against the bandits, he could often see such a scene. The peasant army resisted head-on and couldn't defeat the official army, so they pretended to be defeated, and discarded gold, silver, and silk along the way.The officers and soldiers chased the defeated soldiers, coupled with the turmoil caused by the scrambling for gold, silver and treasures, they lost their will to fight, and the troops lost their formation and fell into chaos.And the peasant army will take advantage of this to turn back almost suddenly, and the officers and soldiers will suffer a lot when they are in chaos.In the past, officers and soldiers were often killed and defeated by the trick of rogue bandits.

Today, at this juncture, Gao Yingxiang sacrificed this magic weapon again!As long as Zuo Guangxian can be repelled, he can save his capital and break through Tongguan.What is the loss of more gold and silver treasures?The big deal is to go to Henan and Nanzhili to grab it!

Just as the officers and soldiers bowed their heads to pick up the belongings discarded on the ground.A gong sounded.

"Give me an arrow!"

In the peasant army, from Gao Yingxiang down, including Gao Guiying, all the people drew their strong bows and shot at the officers and soldiers who gathered on the battlefield just now to rob property!Diffusion of difference.Caused more than a hundred casualties to the officers and soldiers.But the bigger blow was creating chaos.The official army, which was still able to fight hand-to-hand with the peasant army just now, suddenly became a defeated army.

"kill!"

Liu Zongmin and Hao Yaoqi, two powerful generals, saw that the officers and soldiers were already showing signs of collapse, so they did not pursue and kill them at this time.When will we wait?

Shaking the weapons in their hands, they led their subordinates straight to the officers and soldiers to kill them.

Liu Zongmin's horse was fast, brandishing the newly acquired sword, beheaded two of Zuo Guangxian's cavalrymen who were blocking the way, and came straight to his commander-in-chief flag.

"not good!"

Seeing Liu Zongmin leading people towards him, Zuo Guang couldn't help feeling a little flustered, and was about to call out to his servants to stop him, when he saw someone drawing a bow and shooting arrows at him from the corner of his eyes, he hurriedly lowered his head on the horse's back, and hugged him tightly. Hold the horse's neck.

An arrow pierced through the air, passing Zuo Guangxian's helmet and hit his horse's ass, the horse couldn't bear the pain, raised its front hoof, "Herod" screamed, and Zuo Zongbing was thrown off the horse's back down.

Several servants rushed forward to rescue them, and someone led the horse to ask Mr. Zuo to mount it again, but at this moment, Liu Zongmin had already led his men to rush in front of him, and the two servants rushed forward to stop them, but Liu Zongmin chopped off the horse one by one. .

"The guy who waved the flag is right, he's a good knife!" Liu Zongmin praised him, and went straight to Zuo Guang, who was more than a dozen steps away. As long as he beheaded, the army on the western front would collapse. Then, The peasant army can devote its main force to the battle against Madman He.

Taking advantage of the chaotic formation of the officers and soldiers, Liu Zongmin hacked two servants to death one after another, and pierced an officer's chest with another knife. He was a few steps closer to Zuo Guangxian, but he couldn't get any closer. Zuo Guangxian gathered around him. Dozens of servants were killed, wielding knives and guns each, fighting to the death without retreating. Dozens of peasant army cavalry who followed Liu Zongmin were also stabbed to death or chopped off their horses.

"Whoosh!"

Hao Yaoqi, who was fighting to the death on the other side, shot an arrow towards this side, which just happened to shoot Zuo Guangxian's flag officer off his horse, and the handsome flag in his hand fell to the ground.

"Zuo Guang died first! Zuo Guang died first!"

The cavalry around the flag were all old from fighting with him from south to north, and they were already extremely sensitive to the situation on the battlefield. Seeing Zuo Guangxian's handsome flag landed, they immediately shouted in unison. Added another fire.

If it is an ordinary general of the Ming army, it is easy to lose control of the troops in such a situation. They can only return to their horses and flee first, and then try to slowly gather the scattered soldiers.Even if he doesn't run away first, as long as he panics, it will affect his troops, causing even greater chaos and troubles on the already chaotic battlefield situation, causing the troops to collapse and collapse.But as we said before, Zuo Guangxian has very rich battlefield experience, and the training and discipline of the troops are stricter than other troops of the Ming army.Even though he was shocked and frightened when he fell off the horse, and his whole body was in pain, seeing Gao Yingxiang's continuous waving of soldiers to cover up the attack, he was still able to shout loudly on the horse to call for his subordinates to fight, and behaved extremely bravely.

Seeing the commander in action, his soldiers quickly got out of the chaos and slowly regrouped to fight back against the peasant army.

However, both Zuo Guangxian and the Peasant Army stopped attacking, and the battle was stalemate. Both sides had no way of winning.This kind of battle is actually a cover attack when retreating. Both sides are trying their best to maintain a neat formation and continue to counterattack.

However, the formation of their respective main forces is getting wider and wider.

"King Chuang! Zuo Guangxian's donkey ball has finally retreated!"

He commanded his subordinates to clean the battlefield hastily and strip off the armor of those who died in battle.Especially the dozens of servants of Zuo Guangxian, the armor on their bodies has become a treasure in the eyes of everyone.In order to kill these people, the peasant army had to pay more than three times the casualties. Their armor and weapons in their hands became the target of public criticism.

Li Zicheng ordered someone to put away the armor, picked up a few bloody ones and sent them to Gao Yingxiang, along with more than a dozen captured army horses.

"It's inconvenient to stay here for a long time. Taking advantage of the temporary retreat of the officers and soldiers, let's head east. Go to join the Eight Great Kings, Cao Cao and others. Tear open as soon as possible. When we arrive in Henan, the brothers can let go of their hands and feet!"

Looking at the spoils that Li Zicheng sent, Gao Yingxiang was very satisfied.

One order.Nearly [-] people under Gao Yingxiang's unit who broke into the camp began to move eastward rapidly.Go straight to this breakthrough.Go in the direction of Lancaochuan.

Yunjia Mountain, also known as Wenxian Mountain, is part of the Mangling Mountain System.It is located at the junction of Henan and Shaanxi, in the east of Luonan County, Shaanxi Province.The entire mountainous area spans two provinces (Shaanxi and Henan) and three counties (Luonan, Danfeng, Lushi), covering an area of ​​tens of square kilometers.Yunjia is connected to Jiangan Ridge in the east, Lancao River in the lower part, and Gao Yaozi in the south.Overlooking the Watai Peak, the west is connected to the Qianjiang River, and the north is close to Zhenzhengou. The road leading to Luoyang floats across the foot of the mountain like a ribbon.

The Lancao River lies beside this avenue.

If you want to break through here, you must first win Yunjia Mountain.Yunjia Mountain originates from Mangling Mountain, which is located on the border of Henan and Shaanxi.There is a stone cottage on the mountain. There are gates and watchtowers in the east, north and west respectively. There are 2 blastholes with a diameter of 10 feet around the city wall. The city wall is about Zhang high and built against the mountain.Tie Suo Pass on Jiangan Ridge in Yunjia Mountain is even more dangerous and dangerous. One man guards the pass and ten thousand men cannot open it. It has become a battleground for ancient and modern military strategists.The thousand-year-old road at the foot of the mountain has extraordinary strategic significance for the Ming army and peasant army.

If you want to pass here, you must first conquer the temples on the hills on both sides of the thousand-year-old road, and defeat the troops of the madman He Renlong stationed there.Otherwise, it would be more difficult than climbing to the sky to enter Lushi, Baofeng and other places in Henan through this road!

In the history we are familiar with, the famous Xu Huhu's Long March passed through this place, and it took quite a lot of twists and turns to break through the many passes, defeat the siege and interception of the militia and the Northwest Army, and enter Danfeng County, Shaanxi.

And another famous incident, Shangshan Sihao, who once made Liu Bang's old rascal give up the idea of ​​changing the crown prince, lived in seclusion in this mountain.

However, Yunjia Mountain at this time does not have the air of a high-ranking hermit at all, but people shouting and neighing, which is very disturbing.

Along the Wenggou River, Luo Rucai's Cao Ying, old Hui Ma Shouying, Ge Liyan He Yilong, Zuojin Wang Hejin, Changed King Liu Xiyao, Troubled Times Wang Lincheng, Guotianxing Huidengxiang, Huaguansuo Wang Guangen, Xingshi Wang Guoning and other battalions of soldiers and horses, family members, and the hungry people brought by him took water from the river to quench their thirst.Tens of thousands of people screamed and screamed, and various sounds formed a noisy reverberation in the valley.

As for He Renlong's troops, they were divided into two groups, which were deployed in temples on the mountains on both sides. Say hello.

"Guys, are you well guarded?"

Another voice answered: "Well guarded!"

"Is it well guarded?"

"Keep it tight!"

The familiar northern Shaanxi accent drifted down the hillside and reached the ears of several peasant soldiers who were drinking horses by the river. They spat bitterly towards the mountain, "Damn! Don't be complacent! Wait for those who hold the plates After discussing it, we will give you some spicy food to try!"

Those who hold the plates in their mouths are the leaders of their families.

The leaders of these peasant armies are gathering at the Guandi Temple in Gaoyao Village by the Wenggou River to discuss how to break through the blockade of Madman He.

"Tell me! Everyone in charge, we have already arrived here, how we can go from Shaanxi to Henan depends on us!"

In the main hall, the pig-headed animals from the old town of Mr. Guan are still steaming. As a fellow villager of Shaanxi people, Brother Guan's status in their minds is naturally different. This group of peasant soldiers hope to be blessed by Wu Sheng .

It is connected to Guanpo Town of Lushi County to the east, Luanzhuang Town and Yuling Town of Danfeng County to the south, Sanyao Town to the west, and Wangling Township to the north. The west gate of Shi County.Lancaochuan, Yunjiashan, Tiesuoguan and other places are the iron locks of this door.

As the leader of the peasant army along the way, Luo Rucai, nicknamed Cao Cao, blinked his small eyes and scanned the leaders of the various peasant armies sitting in the hall one by one.

"Cao Shuai, that lunatic He is not easy to deal with!" He Yilong, nicknamed "Ge Liyan", was the first to speak as a person whose strength and qualifications were not inferior to Cao Cao.

The origin of the nickname of Greeeye comes from his physical characteristics.Geli is a small animal in the dialect of northern Shaanxi. It has bad eyesight. It should belong to animals like moles (do you remember the one in Black Cat Sheriff?) and He Yilong is just short-sighted. Eye.So, I took this feature as my bandit number.

"Furthermore, Crazy Hong personally supervised the battle in Tongguan, and offered a huge reward. It is said that as long as Crazy He guards the Lancaochuan Avenue, he can actually be appointed as the commander-in-chief of a town!"

"Crazy He has already turned his eyes red in order to get promoted, and the terrain is in his favor. I'm afraid this battle is not easy to fight!"

The relationship with Ge Liyan has always been good, and the old Huihui Ma Shouying, the two of them often fought side by side, also helped the brothers.

Cao Cao's small eyes glanced back and forth at Lao Huihui, Ge Liyan, and He Jin, who reported to be King Zuojin, and suddenly laughed loudly, "That's right! The terrain is favorable to him, but this battle, It is also necessary to change the style of play!"

His laughter surprised everyone. Is this Cao Cao the same as the Cao Cao in the play, making fun of others for not knowing how to use soldiers? (to be continued...)
