13. Li Ma old feud
Ma Sui called General Li Ziliang and asked him how to fight this battle.
Li Ziliang was originally a subordinate of Bao Fang, the former governor of Hedong. When the Uighurs invaded Taiyuan, Bao Fang had to lead the army to fight, but Li Ziliang advised him that it would be better to stick to the city and then send another army to build a base behind the Uighurs, breaking the retreat route, and after his troops were exhausted, he would pursue him from head to tail and get the full result.
But Bao Fang refused to listen and insisted on going to fight against the Uighurs on the plains, but was defeated.
After Bao Fang was dismissed, Ma Sui became the governor of Hedong. He believed that Li Ziliang was both wise and brave, so he entrusted his mission with a close confidant and would consult him in the war.
Li Ziliang pointed to the map and said that Yang Chaoguang had only 5,000 troops. Jiexiao and Li Baozhen and Li Sheng joined forces to break his camp, and it was easy to break his camp, but Tian Yue's main force might come to reinforce at any time. This is what we should pay attention to: Jiexiao can give me three thousand elite soldiers, and go around to the Shuanggang between Lu Zhuang and Tian Yue's main formation to resist Tian Yue, and then Jiexiao's efforts to attack Lu Zhuang, and I will focus on blocking Tian Yue, and I will win this battle.
"Very good, Shuanggang will be handed over to you. If Tian Yue has a soldier and a soldier who has reinforced Lu Zhuang, you will be killed to support you!" Ma Sui agreed.
The next day, Pingming, Ma Sui, Li Baozhen, and Li Sheng all had 40,000 elite troops, and attacked Lu Zhuang more and more fiercely. Yang Chaoguang was afraid and hurriedly asked for help from Yu Tianyue.
"Lu Zhuang must not be lost. If it is lost, the battle of Lin Ming will be doomed!" Tian Yue, who realized the seriousness, and Tian Xu, together with Tian Xu, personally led the most elite Wei Boya soldiers to prepare to reinforce Lu Zhuang.
Who would have thought that when I met Li Ziliang who came here to intercept him, Wei Boya soldiers shouted, with heavy armor and shields in front of him, and long-handed oars in the back, and the "Thousand-Sword Formation" that I was most proud of when I was alive, he advanced like a wall and attacked Shuanggang.
Li Ziliang led three thousand Hedong soldiers to fight to the death. Tian Xu supervised Wei Bo's Thousand Sword Formation to attack more than ten times, but he failed to win, let alone capture Shuanggang.
On the other hand, Ma Sui recruited hundreds of oil-burning chariots filled with firewood and grass to rush to the camp of Yang Chaoguang in Lu Zhuang and set fire to burn. The wooden fences established by Yang Chaoguang and Lu Zichang were immediately destroyed. Li Chen and Li Baozhen surrounded the two wings and killed all the five thousand Wei Bo soldiers on the hills of Lu Zhuang. Yang Chaoguang was beheaded, and Lu Zichang was captured and beheaded for public display.
Then, the Masui cavalry drove straight to Shuanggang to help Li Ziliang. Seeing that the situation was not good, Tian Yue no longer had the courage to continue to surround Linming City. Thousands of Wei Bo soldiers abandoned the camp under Linming City and ran towards Mingshui. Zhang Qi, the commander in the city, took the opportunity to open the door and pursue it, obtaining countless supplies.
Tian Yue, who arrived at Mingshui, was furious and killed several people in a row to hold back the collapsed formation. Then he asked the entire army to turn around and fight.
As soon as the formation was set up, the troops of Ma Sui, Li Baozhen and Zhang Yi arrived quickly like the wind and started fighting with Wei Bo's army.
Li Sheng led the Shen Ce Army to cross Mingshui, appeared behind Tian Yue, and attacked him, and suddenly swept across the ground, like a fire burning the Yuan, defeating Tian Yue, and defeating Tian Yue. The soldiers of Doctor Wei were killed more than ten thousand times. Tian Yue and Tian Xu, the cousins, hugged their heads and cried, fled in a panic, "I regret not listening to the words of Xing Caojun, the governor of Beizhou. We are not Ma Sui, Li Baozhen, and Li Sheng's opponent!"
Taking advantage of the night to protect him, Tian Yue gathered the defeated soldiers and headed south in panic, crossed the boundary of Cizhou, and headed towards Xiangzhou.
Xiangzhou is the gateway to the Wei Mansion, and it can also go south to control Hebei Road and Henan Road to Weizhou.
Li Yu, the governor of Fang Heyang of the imperial court, had led his troops to approach Weizhou and showed a trend of attacking north and south with Ma Sui.
As long as the prime minister and Wei fall, the generals of the Wei Mansion have no danger to defend, Tian Yue can hand over his head obediently.
The frightened Tian Yue hurried in the Anyang City, the capital of Xiangzhou, and asked the general Wang Guang to enter the Zhang River to build a Yanyue Build and lock the long bridge.
Ma Sui, who was chasing, ordered the soldiers to push the chariot, fill it with earthen bags, chain it up with iron chains, and stuff it between the Zhang River. Soon the water became shallower. The entire army crossed the Zhang River and stationed in Cangkou. He Tian Yue was separated by the Daohuan River, which scared Tian Yue so anxious all day long.
"I'm not afraid or afraid, the other party's food will be almost exhausted. As long as I stick to Anyang City and wait for Chengde and Pinglu's reinforcements, I can still have a chance to win." Tian Yue from Anyang City kept cheering himself up like this.
Not long after, the Lu army in Ziqing Ping did send more than 10,000 people, and Li Weiyue's Chengde army also sent 3,000 people to meet with Tian Yue.
Only then did Tian Yue realize that Li Zhengji was destroyed, and Li Na presided over the overall situation. He couldn't help but feel sad: "In the past, Li Baochen, Li Zhengji and my uncle Tian Chengsi had been dealing with Emperor Daizong all his life, but at least he had some affection. Now the new emperor and us (Li Weiyue, Li Na and himself) have no affection to talk about. You must not surrender. Surrender means destruction. I have to defend Anyang City!"
Just as Tian Yue made up his mind to resist stubbornly, a dispute broke out in the imperial military camp on the other side of the Huanshui.
Because of the old grudge between Ma Sui and Li Bao.
When Emperor Daizong was still alive, Li Baozhen wanted to kill Yang Liu, the governor of Huaizhou.
In fact, people are really strange. Li Baozhen is famous for being lenient to talents in the Zhaoyi Army Mansion. He likes to cultivate immortals and has a moral quality higher than ordinary military generals. But no matter how good a person is, he will have an enemy who wants to kill him in this life. For Li Baozhen, Yang Liu is such an enemy.
During the Daizong Dynasty, there was no discipline at all. The general of the Jiedu Army killed a governor, and it was drizzling.
When Yang Xu heard that Li Baozhen was about to sharpen his knife and killed him, he ran all the way to surrender to Ma Sui. Ma Sui took him in and thus formed a bond with Li Baozhen.
Of course, Ma Sui was not really chivalrous. He protected Yang Liu because he actually wanted to include Huaizhou in his own power.
So when he and Li Baozhen went on this expedition, if they were defeated, they could still protect each other, but they naturally began to destroy each other. Sure enough, after the Linming victory, the imperial court added Ma Sui to recruit Wei Bo to recruit envoys, and Li Baozhen began to look a little "strange".
When the army was still in Yecheng, Li Baozhen began to take "taking pills and practicing medicines" as the name, and often did not come to meet with Ma Sui and Li Sheng to cooperate, staying in his camp and staying next to the burning alchemy furnace, not knowing what to do.
Recently, Ma Sui was even more annoyed: Li Baozhen suddenly arbitrarily pulled out two thousand troops to head north, saying that he wanted to rescue Li Hong, the governor who was defending Xingzhou.
