Chapter 707 The Battle of Yique

After Qia Shu attacked a large camp of the Tang army, the killing was very smooth, but not every Zhao army was like this.

Shan Xiongxin personally led 10,000 troops around Yique City and appeared from the other side. He wanted to attack and break the Tang army's central camp and achieve full results in one battle, but here he encountered the obstruction of the Tang army general Zhang Gongjin.

The other Tang troops in the siege of Bairi were exhausted, but Zhang Gongjin's troops were not in battle as a new force, so the soldiers under his command were all full of energy. In the military proposal of Bairi's camp, Zhang Gongjin had already suggested to the Tang army chief Ren Gui that Yique was the gateway south of Luoyang. If it was lost, the Zhao army would definitely counterattack and take back the city.

Although Ren Gui felt that what Zhang Gongjin said was reasonable, this suggestion was opposed by Pang Yu, Li Daliang and other generals. There was no way to do so. The siege in the daytime was too much consumed, and the whole army had to dig camps and watch the night. It was too exhausting. If they were to keep their soldiers on guard at night, it would be a big problem.

Seeing that his opinion was not adopted, Zhang Gongjin returned to the camp and ordered half of the soldiers to rest and the other half to wear armor to serve as a warning. At this time, Shan Xiongxin's army of 10,000 was attacking Zhang Gongjin's camp.

The moment Shan Xiongxin's men appeared, Zhang Gongjin ordered the entire army to prepare for war. He also ordered the soldiers to dig a trap worth ten feet in front of the central army's tent, covered with blankets, and covered with floating soil. All the other soldiers were ambushed around the central army's tent.

At this time, the Zhao army had already entered the Tang army camp. Shan Xiongxin carried a horse spear and rode a big red horse, and surrounded by soldiers on the left and right to attack Zhang Gongjin's camp.

Shan Xiongxin saw that the enemy's resistance in the Tang army camp was weak, and he was strange at the moment. He was also a general who had been through a long battle formation. He had a judgment on whether the situation was abnormal at first glance.

Shan Xiongxin shouted: "The Tang army is cheating, the front army is searching slowly!"

After hearing Shan Xiongxin's words, the soldiers immediately sent orders to the front army. In order to capture the general of the Tang army alive, Shan Xiongxin's front army entered the Tang army's central tent and advanced quickly. When they heard the warning behind, they stopped moving forward and the entire army was on standby.

Seeing that the Zhao army was not trapped, Zhang Gongjin knew that it was discovered by the other party. He immediately ordered the soldiers who were ambushing the central army tent to counterattack together and encircle and annihilate the Zhao army vanguard who broke into the camp.

The Tang army ambushed out from three sides, holding torches and thorns in. The Zhao army's vanguard was already standing in front of the formation.

Seeing that he could not attack, Zhang Gongjin personally went on a battle and drove his guns and horses to fight. The soldiers of the two armies fought extremely fiercely in front of the central army's tent. Just when Zhang Gongjin was about to repel the Zhao army's vanguard, Shan Xiongxin came to attack, and Shan Xiongxin took on several generals of the Tang army alone.

The soldiers of Zhao, who were almost desperate in the siege of the Tang army, cried and shouted with joy: "General save me! General save me!"

Shan Xiongxin didn't say anything. Wherever there were soldiers shouting, they led their troops to kill him. The soldiers of the Tang army could not resist. Zhang Gongjin personally went into battle to stop Shan Xiongxin, but was also killed by Shan Xiongxin with a horse spear.

Zhang Gongjin stepped back and saw that Shan Xiongxin was rushing left and right and there was no one to compete with, and came to say, "I heard that Li Mi and Wang Shichong were the ones who were brave enough to be the three armies. When I saw him today, it was true."

The soldiers on the side said, "General, should you avoid his sharp edge?"

Zhang Gongjin said: "No hurry, Shan Xiongxin is the main force. If we resist his attack, our army's central tent will be safe. If we delay for a moment, our army's chances of winning will be one point higher." At that moment, Zhang Gongjin ordered the soldiers to change their formation and turn off attack to defend, and block the way of Shan Xiongxin's ten thousand troops.

Zhang Gongjin and Shan Xiongxin were fighting fiercely. On the other hand, Xu Shiji also rushed into the Tang army camp from the flank. Wang Bo and Meng Haigong each led their troops to besiege a large camp of the Tang army. The vanguard general Luo Shixin led three thousand light cavalry to break into. It was the camp of the Tang army general Li Daliang.

However, Li Daliang was originally a general of the Sui Dynasty and later surrendered to Li Mi. After Li Mi was defeated, he surrendered to Li Tang. He defended against the Turks on the border and was promoted to Sima with his merits. In the battle to defeat Wang Shichong, he defeated Zheng's general Wang Honglie, attacked Xiangyang, and then defended Xiangyang and repelled the attack of Xiao Xian General Yang Daosheng, which was also well-known among the Tang army.

At present, Li Daliang was appointed as the governor of Anzhou by Li Yuan for his achievements in pacifying Wang Shichong. In the Battle of Yique, his subordinates took the lead in attacking Shangnanmen Tower and made the first contribution to capturing Yique.

However, it was precisely because of the excessive efforts of the daytime battle that the soldiers were exhausted. The defense camp was built very sloppy and did not handle the rules of the Tang army at all. Most of the soldiers were very tired, and there were very few soldiers on the night. When Li Daliang's military camp was attacked by Luo Shixin, most of the soldiers were still sleeping. How could the soldiers on the night resist the advance of Luo Shixin's cavalry.

The camp gate was broken in a moment, and the Tang soldiers rushed out of the tent in a hurry, trampling on each other in the scattered chaos, and countless casualties were killed and injured. The Zhao soldiers threw the torches on their hands into the military camp, burning food and weapons, and the Tang army camp immediately ignited a fire.

Li Daliang led the commander to re-summon the army, but Luo Shixin's cavalry came like the wind. Under the overwhelming blow of arrows, the soldiers of the Tang army rushed to flee.

Li Daliang was immediately furious. He ordered the soldiers to organize a complete group of soldiers and horses, raise a large shield to fight towards the cavalry. Seeing the shield formation, the soldiers of the scattered Tang army gathered from all sides. Li Daliang placed the troops and returned to the shield formation. The Tang army immediately gathered nearly a thousand troops again like snowballs.

With this force, Li Daliang was immediately confident that he would drive the Zhao army out of the camp.

However, when Luo Shixin saw this scene, he had a way to defeat the enemy. He ordered three thousand cavalry to split into two groups, attracting them from the front, and led the whole group to encircle from the flanks and into the weak flanks of the shield formation.

The cavalry along the way, with war horses wrapped in leather armor, and the soldiers were wearing solid helmets, and their equipment was equivalent to the most elite Yue Knights among the Tang army's troops. Luo Shixin led the soldiers to come like the wind, and the soldiers on the horse's back made loud shouts and shouts of killing, and the sound of hooves was like thunder, and the roar trampled on them.

The soldiers picked up the horse spear and pierced into the Tang army formation. The war horses collided like ox to push up the Tang army soldiers one after another. The soldiers in the second row waved the horse spears in their hands like wind to rush into the Tang army formation. The resistance Tang army was instantly defeated like a mantis blocking a chariot.

When Li Daliang saw a scene, he immediately carried his gun and rode his horse, led his personal army to directly capture the Zhao cavalry, and counterattacked the Zhao cavalry, trying to save the defeat.

In the dark night, there were burning Tang army camps on all sides. Li Daliang rode his horse forward and shouted to the Zhao army cavalry who entered the Tang army camp in front: "Are the enemy general willing to fight with Li Daliang?"

A long laugh was heard during the match, and a tall and thin young man rode his horse slowly and shouted: "General Tang looked at the gun!"

"This person must be Luo Shixin. If you kill this person, the Zhao army's spirit will be severely defeated!" The opponent rode his horse and rushed towards him. Li Daliang thought so in his heart, cheering up his spirits to fight.

After several shots, the war horse neighed, and Li Daliang fell heavily from his horse, and blood spurted out from his mouth.

Luo Shixin rode his horse to Li Daliang and said, "You are also a brave general, but it's a pity. You will be a general in the next life, so don't run into someone again!"

After saying that, Luo Shixin turned the tail of the iron gun in his hand and smashed the bars heavily into Li Daliang's head.

On the mountain behind Yique, there is a slight morning light in the sky here.

Tens of thousands of Tang troops were lying in the mountains. The chief general of the Tang army, Li Xiaogong, and the chief of the marching officer, Li Jing, sat on the mountain with a serious expression, and seemed to be indifferent to the 30,000 vanguard troops of the Tang army, which were attacked by the Zhao army and the two major prefectures at the foot of the mountain.

At this time, a soldier from the white army rushed to the mountain and reported to Li Xiaogong and Li Jing: "Report to the Grand General, Chief Secretary, Zhao army attacked our army at night. The two armies have fought fiercely for more than three hours. In addition to the Central Army and General Zhang Gongjin's camp, the Right Front Army, the Right Right Army, the Right Right Army, the Right Yu Hou Army, the Left Yu Hou Army, and the Left Liu Army were all captured by the Zhao army. At present, the Zhao army is besieging the Central Army camp and fighting fiercely!"

After the words came, Li Xiaogong gave up the Shou Shengyan, who stood up from Mazha, clasped his fists and said, "The Central Army camp is in danger, and the last general begs the general to allow the general to rescue the Central Army."

Li Jing said: "No, the Zhao army is not tired yet! Otherwise, our army will fail in the middle of the night. Please wait for another half an hour."

Li Xiaogong glanced at Li Jing and banged out a word: "Wait!"

Xu Shiji was wearing a moon-white cloak and stood in the night wind. Looking at the dawn in the sky, he knew that it was about to dawn.

Xu Shiji said seriously: "Send the order and call the gold to withdraw the troops!"

"But our army almost could capture the Tang army's central tent!"

"Don't be in love with the battle, I'll be in the golden silence!"

There was a sound of golden sound from the Zhao army. Luo Shixin, Wang Bo and other generals who were attacking the Tang army without hesitation gave up their pursuit of the Tang army and retreated their troops back to the camp.

Shan Xiongxin's men still refused to retreat. The general on the side said to Shan Xiongxin: "It's just a little bit that I can break through the Tang army's central camp and achieve full results. Why should the general be controlled by Xu Shiji!"

Shan Xiongxin listened to the general's words and said, "Although I am unwilling to give up, I have an appointment with Xu Shiji first, and I will stop the army tomorrow."

The generals heard it and said, "General, the guards are the guards, and my guards are the guards. Why do you listen to his orders? Will you have to work hard all night and be wasted?"

Shan Xiongxin was worried. At this moment, a Tang-character flag was raised across the hill. In the morning light, the besieged Tang soldiers all cheered together when they saw it: "It's the Grand Marshal, the reinforcements of the Grand Marshal have arrived!"

On the top of the mountain, Li Xiaogong shouted to the generals: "Since the Zhao army plans to call the gold and withdraw the troops, we can no longer hide, Sheng Yan's army!"

"The last one will be here!"

"You lead our troops to emerge from the valley and cut off the Zhao army's retreat! As long as you can persist for half an hour, you will be the first achievement."

"promise!"

"The rest of the troops followed the generals to attack!"

The generals of the Tang army were ordered to be ordered.

After Li Xiaogong finished speaking, the Tang army that was ambushing on the mountain came out from three sides and rushed towards the Zhao army all over the mountains.
