Chapter 231 Either die or fight

Zheng's army fled in front, and Tang's army chased and fought hard behind. The sword fell down, and the light of the sword flashed, and blood splashed everywhere. However, because the heavy rain was too heavy, the rain washed away the blood in an instant.

The Zheng army soldiers who were behind fell to the ground one by one and twitched. The sharp horizontal knife made of high manganese steel is really easy to use. The scimitar spear rod and other slashes. The leather or iron armor of Zheng army soldiers, and the high manganese steel horizontal knife is similar to a piece of paper in front of it, and it is opened with one slash.

The soldiers of the Tang army who were so aggressive were like Bises, spears, long spears, hooks, sickles, and long spears, and spears, all of them were thrown into the direction. Even if they ran faster than their teammates, they still could not avoid the fate of being crossed on the spot.

Seeing the Tang army soldiers getting tighter and tighter, these Zheng army soldiers also untied themselves, dropped their armor, reduced their loads, and accelerated their escape speed. A very spectacular scene appeared, and thousands of shirtless men ran quickly in the rain.

Wang Renze ran at this time and his legs were weak and his limbs were weak. There was no way. The armor on his body weighed more than 30 kilograms, which was sufficient in weight and naturally had good defense ability. It can be said that Wang Renze's fine steel armor was just like the Mingguang armor of the Tang army's Modao Jun, and could basically ignore the shooting of bows and arrows.

Everything has advantages and disadvantages. Although the defense ability is good, it is too heavy. Wang Renze can't run after just running for more than ten miles.

In desperation, he had to take off his armor.

The Zheng soldiers who really couldn't run knelt down and begged for mercy.

The fighting at the foot of Beim Mountain was earth-shaking. Li Yuanji and Qu Tutong in Beim Camp also received reports, but when the scouts from Beim Camp saw a group of shirtless people fighting in the rain, they couldn't tell what was going on.

Qu Tu Channel: "Mobilize people and fight to the mountain..."

Before Qu Tutong could finish his speech, Li Yuanji said sarcastically: "Kill and kill... Who will General Qu Tu kill?"

Qu Tutong: "Of course it's killing Zheng army!"

"Hmph!" Li Yuanji sneered: "What if this is a big drama written and performed by Zheng Jun? Their purpose is to lure us down the mountain. At this time, General Qu Tu went down the mountain, I'm afraid it would be what they wanted!"

"This..." Qu Tutong thought about it again. The situation Li Yuanji said was not impossible. Now the remnants of the Tang army in Beimeng Camp are no longer able to break through Wang Renze's siege, but Wang Renze is also not able to attack Beimeng Camp. If Wang Renze pretends to create the illusion of the Tang army coming to aid at this time, attracting them down the mountain, once they walk out of the camp, it will be difficult to come back.

Qu Tutong thought for a while and said, "Your Highness, will the reinforcements sent by His Majesty arrive?"

"Although the idea is wonderful, there is no possibility!" Li Yuanji said: "Now Luoyang is an open space. If our reinforcements come, there is no need to attack Wang Renze's camp at all. If we pretend to attack Luoyang directly, Wang Renze will inevitably withdraw his troops and return to Luoyang. The siege of Mangshan will be resolved without fighting. What's more, can Chang'an City send reinforcements? Even if His Majesty wants to mobilize troops to support, he may be powerless. More importantly, Dou Jiande's more than 200,000 troops attack Hedong. The situation in Hedong is more dangerous than ours. Even if we rescue, we may rescue Hedong first."

What Li Yuanji said was also the truth. Although Qu Tutong was surrounded in Beim Mountain, the large army could not break through or support, but the pigeon Ace Renze could not stop him. In fact, two days ago, they also received a battle report that Li Jiancheng defeated Dou Jiande on the bank of the Fenhe River. In this battle, Li Jiancheng killed Dou Jiande's army of about 5,000, and injured countless enemies.

Li Xiuning was worried about Li Shimin's safety, and at the same time, he was worried about Li Xiaosi and Li Yuanji's safety. After all, Li Jiancheng and his siblings were the youngest.

Just when Qu Tutong ordered the camp gate to be strictly guarded and not to go to war without authorization, Fang Xuanling suddenly said: "Your Highness, General Qu Tu, could it be General Chen who led his troops here?"

Li Yuanji said bluntly: "We also received news from General Chen last night that he was blocked outside Yanshi City. How could this half day be possible?"

Just then, a soldier came to report, "Princess Pingyang is here!"

Li Yuanji laughed and said, "I knew that the third sister would come to save me. Open the camp quickly and welcome the arrival of His Highness Pingyang Princess!"

Qu Tu Channel: "Your Highness, I personally bring a group of people out of the city and attack Princess Pingyang's army inside and outside. Even if I cannot defeat Wang Renze, I will drive them back a few miles so that Princess Pingyang can calmly go up the mountain..."

"No need!" Before Li Xiuning arrived, her voice arrived first. She continued to smile and said, "At this time, the battle should be over. General Chen's troops have already attacked Luoyang!"

...

Wang Renze finally ran to the city of Luoyang City. However, what he saw when he ran to Luoyang City was not the closed city gate or the wide open city gate, but densely packed soldiers. These soldiers held crude weapons and looked at Wang Renze with murderous intent.

The soldiers beside Wang Renze looked at me, and I looked at you, and they all showed a grey smile that was even worse than crying. Now they could no longer run and didn't want to run away. Luoyang City was occupied by the enemy and they even fucked. They knelt down tremblingly.

On April 21, the third year of Wude, more than 30,000 soldiers of the Heluo Right Army formed by Wang Shichong surrendered to Liu Tonghe Xunxiang, the general under Chen Ying. At the same time, Liu Tonghe Xunxiang occupied Luoyang City.

Originally, after receiving Chen Ying's order, Liu Tonghe Xunxiang immediately had a full meal and advanced in the rain. In fact, Luokoucang was only more than thirty miles away from Luoyang City, and Liu Tong arrived in Luoyang earlier than Chen Ying.

If it were normal, Liu Tong would not have the chance to get close to Luoyang City. Due to the poor view of the heavy rain, Liu Tong and Xunxiang's six or seven thousand migrant soldiers easily approached Luoyang City. Just as Liu Tong and Xunxiang were discussing how to break the city, they suddenly found a large number of shirtless Zheng army defeated soldiers rushed to Luoyang City.

Seeing these defeated soldiers, Liu Tonghe came to mind. They also asked the miners and Beiwei Army soldiers to take off their armor and rushed to Luoyang City with their bare arms. At this time, Zheng Jun was actually in chaos and no one paid attention to these defeated soldiers. Wang Xuanying was also thinking about taking over the defeated soldiers under Wang Renze and using the inventory of armor and weapons in Luoyang City to arm a his own army.

As a result, Liu Tong and Xunxiang and others had just rushed into the city gate and immediately launched an attack. The Beiwei army had a very strong ability to disrupt the war. Taking advantage of the chaos, Xunxiang captured Wang Xuanying again.

The defeated soldiers of the Zheng army who had just escaped to Luoyang City and had not had time to take a breath, saw the situation and obediently put down their weapons.

Chen Ying was also very surprised that Luoyang City was taken down in this situation, but he was happy to see that it could reduce casualties. Chen Ying gathered the defeated soldiers and accepted the prisoners while treating the wounded.

Chen Ying, who was busy, actually forgot to report this huge news to Li Shimin. Chen Ying thought that Li Xiuning would definitely inform Li Shimin of this news, and Li Xiuning also thought that Chen Ying would inform Li Shimin of this news, but the result was good. Whether it was Li Xiuning or Li Yuanji, or Qu Tutong, no one, had reported the news to Li Shimin.

Finally, when it was getting dark, the rain finally stopped.

The army under Chen Ying took over Luoyang's city defense. Chen Ying's army was strict in military discipline, and Luoyang City had not been destroyed by any rebellious soldiers, especially the entire palace. Chen Ying thought that Wang Shichong's small treasury should have a lot of money. He sent a confidant army to interrogate Wang Xuanying and Wang Shichong's sons and nephews in Luoyang City while appeaseing the people.

In this battle, Chen Ying was not beheaded, but only 6,000 levels, which means that only one-fifth of Wang Renze's command was killed and the entire army collapsed.

...

On the top of Longtan Mountain in Xin'an, deep in the dense forest, Hou Mo Chenxu looked at Li Shimin's camp in the distance. Now the rain has just stopped and the mist is blurred, as if Li Shimin's camp is shrouded in water mist. Hou Mo Chenxu's eyebrows are frowning and his face is very heavy.

Because Hou Mo Chenxu was thinking of giving Li Shimin a timely help at the last moment, the Hou Mo Chen family tribes transferred by Hou Mo Chenxu were all hidden in the Longtan Valley.

Originally, this was the ambush place where Wang Shichong was preparing to ambush Li Shimin, but Li Shimin was not deceived, so this valley was ignored by Wang Shichong. However, in order to avoid being discovered by Wang Shichong, the five or six hundred people from Houmo Chen clan mobilized by Houmo Chenxu all ate cold rice, swallowed dry food, and drank raw water, and lived like beggars.

Even Hou Mo Chenxu himself, his military uniform had been scraped into silk cloth in the dense forest, and he had not washed it for many days and had his hair and dirty face. If the sword on his waist was not there, he would have looked like a beggar. Hou Mo Chenxu murmured: "Li Shimin is really lucky. He didn't expect God to help him. If it weren't for this heavy rain, Li Shimin would have been defeated long ago!"

At this moment, Yu Qing walked quickly. If it weren't for Yu Qing's wrinkles and ravines, he wouldn't be able to tell his age at all. Yu Qing said without blushing and breathing: "Qilang, Wulang has already captured Luoyang, and soon he will lead his army to lift Li Shimin's siege."

Hou Mo Chenxu also knew that this place was not as good as Lingnan, and he could use only a limited number of people. If five or six hundred people wanted to provide timely assistance to Li Shimin, there was no possibility. Hou Mo Chenxu knew that when Wang Shichong broke through Li Shimin's camp, his vigilance would definitely be relaxed. Moreover, when the overall situation was decided, Wang Shichong would not have too many guards around him at that time, so at that time, Hou Mo Chenxu had the opportunity to touch Wang Shichong and first capture the thief.

At that moment, the Tang army's casualties must have been very serious. The most important point is that when Li Shimin's camp was about to be captured, the soldiers of the Zheng army rushed into Li Shimin's camp one after another, and who would not want to steal any general? At that time, all the soldiers and horses of Wang Shichong's battalions would be crowded into the camp as fast as possible. Even if Li Shimin had completely lost the power of resistance and tens of thousands of troops entered the camp frantically, they would be in chaos. The general could not find the general, and the general could not find the soldiers, and it would be difficult for him to maintain the orders.

At this time, the emperor's camp, which was originally placed behind the front army, was the weakest defense force and the most relaxed alertness. In addition, the defense measures of the Zheng army camp were mainly placed in the front, and his army that suddenly came out of the rear could enter the central army as if they were in a nobody's land, kill or capture Wang Shichong alive. As long as Wang Shichong was captured or killed, the various armies of Zheng State were not subordinate to each other, including the Heluo Army, the Jianghuai Army, the local army, and Tian Zan and Yang Qing's troops who were separated from Wang Shichong. If they said that they had no secret intentions, they might not believe it themselves. The Zheng army camp would inevitably be in chaos and would not be willing to fight. Even if there were a million troops, they would have completely lost their combat power by then.

What is particularly important is that the death of the emperor will definitely be chaotic if it is related to the country and the future and destiny of the officials.

Hou Mo Chenxu smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that we can only do it in advance now!"

Yu Qing shook his head and said, "Now is not a good time to do it."
