Ranking Pass History: Inventory of the Top Ten Great Players in History

Fourth shot:
Under Li Mi's suggestion, the Wagang army broke through Xingyang and approached the Xingluo warehouse, which had stockpiled millions of shi.

After Yang Guang got the report, he immediately sent the famous general Zhang Xutuo to lead more than [-] troops to encircle and suppress Zhai Rang.

When Zhai Rang heard that Zhang Xutuo had led his troops, he was shocked and immediately wanted to lead his troops back to Wagang Village.

The reason why Zhai Rang was afraid of Zhang Xutuo was because the Wagang Army had fought Zhang Xutuo more than a dozen times, and they would lose every battle.

Zhang Xutuo is not only a super strong general himself, but also has two strong generals under his command, Qin Qiong Luo Shixin, and the soldier Xiao Rui, who can rub the Wagang Army on the ground every time.

At this time Li Mi stepped forward and offered a clever plan.

"Zhang Xutuo was brave but without plan, and his soldiers won a sudden victory. He is arrogant and ruthless, and he can be captured in a single battle. But it is public and waits. Only 5000 people are needed to kill Zhang Xutuo."

Li Mi asked Zhai Rangchen to go to the south of Dahai Temple, and he led a thousand ambush soldiers to lie in ambush in the north forest of Dahai Temple.

Zhang Xutuo had always looked down on Zhai Rang, and as soon as the soldiers and horses arrived, he quickly launched an attack.

In less than half an hour, Zhai Rang's troops were defeated and retreated.Zhang Xutuo pursued Zhai Rang for more than ten li.Li Mi's ambush soldiers rushed out from the middle and cut off the enemy.

Zhai Rang, Xu Shiji, and Wang Bodang joined forces to encircle it, but Zhang Xutuo was defeated and left.

Later, he came back four times to rescue the soldiers, and finally died in battle.

Qin Qiong Luo Shixin broke through the siege and took refuge in the famous general Pei Renji.

This was Li Mi's first battle in which he won more with less, and it was also the first battle in which Li Mi became famous all over the world.

Fifth shot:
Li Mi captured Xingluocang, and his reputation was greatly shaken.

Yang Tong, the king of Yue who was staying in Luoyang, sent Liu Changgong to lead 5 troops northward from Luoyang, and sent the famous general Pei Renji to lead 5000 troops to the west from Sishuiguan, preparing to attack Li Mi in one fell swoop.

The [-] Dongdu troops led by Liu Changgong arrived first, and Chen Bing was in the west of Shizi River, and the north and south joined forces for more than ten miles.

Li Mi divided the elite soldiers into ten teams, and the fourth team stayed behind to deal with it. He led the sixth team of Chen Bing Shi Zihe to face him.

According to the calculation of 500 people per team recorded in the book, Li Mi came to meet with only 9000 troops.

When Liu Changgong saw that Li Mi's army was small, he drove his troops forward.

Zhai Rang came to fight first, and soon he was at a disadvantage.

At this time, Li Mi sent out another surprise soldier, cut off the enemy from the right, and started a fierce battle with the Sui army.

At noon, the Sui army was defeated and left.

Li Mi led the army to chase and kill them all the way, and countless Sui soldiers died in battle and drowned in Luohe.Liu Changgong took off his armor, got off his horse and mixed in among the deserters before he escaped death.

Nearly 3 people were killed or injured by the Sui army in this battle. Li Mi obtained countless supplies and armor, and his reputation was greatly enhanced, and he was known all over the world.

After this war, the unambitious Zhai Rang and the local tyrants supported Li Mi as Lord Wei, calling him Duke Wei.

The sixth shot:
After defeating the Dongdu Army and Horses, Li Mi adopted a policy of intensifying the raids on the periphery of Dongdu and adopting a soft policy towards Pei Renji's troops in the east.

He first ordered his subordinate Meng Rang to lead 2000 cavalry to raid Fengdu on the outskirts of Dongdu, and burn the city away, causing all the residents outside the city to flee into the city.

Pei Renji did not arrive as scheduled in the battle of Cangcheng. Hearing the news of the defeat of the Eastern Capital Army, he was stationed in Baihua Valley and dared not advance or retreat.When Li Mi knew about it, he sent people to lure him with huge profits, and finally made the famous general Pei Renji surrender.

After that, heroes from all walks of life came to join Li Mi, including generals such as Qin Shubao Luo Shixin and Cheng Yaojin.

Li Mi sent troops to the east again, and the soldiers and horses successively conquered the counties of Henan and Shandong, and the troops were strong and the horses were strong for a while.

In order to make meritorious service, Pei Renji led his troops to break through Luocang, burned down Tianjin Bridge, and sent troops to loot everywhere.At this time, there were more than 20 soldiers and horses in the Eastern Capital, and they sent troops to attack Pei Renji, who was defeated and returned. (I really don’t know where this fellow is considered a famous general?)
After Li Mi knew about it, he led 3 horsemen to fight, and the Dongdu Army [-] fought back. As a result, Li Mi defeated the Dongdu Army again.

This is the third time that Li Mi has won more battles with less.

In order to regain Luocang, Li Mi started his fourth battle of winning more with less.Twenty thousand soldiers from Li Mi and fifty thousand soldiers from Dongdu fought in a decisive battle at Pingyuan, which is just south of Luoyang.

Li Mi used the cavalry as the left wing and the infantry as the right wing. The army and horses in the middle route mostly set up strong crossbows, and marched in three directions.The Dongdu army and horses could not withstand the continuous attacks and finally retreated. Li Mi pursued all the way and took the opportunity to capture Luocang.

Li Mi fought against the Dongdu army several times and won again and again.The soldiers in Dongdu trembled when they heard Li Mi's name.

Seventh shot:
In 617 AD, Wang Shichong led more than [-] horsemen from Jiangdu northward to Luoyang, fought several times with Li Mi, and returned home in defeat.

At this time, the Wagang Army had more than [-] soldiers and became the strongest feudal town in the world.

However, there were disputes within the Wagang Army at this time.

Wagangzhai is a cottage created by Zhai Rang.Zhai Rang himself has no ambitions, and is willing to serve Li Mi as the master.But some of Zhai Rang's cronies were not convinced by Li Mi.

Seeing that Wagangzhai had the momentum to dominate the world, Zhai Rang's brother Zhai Kuan said boldly,

"The Wagang Army was founded by you, so of course you can only be the emperor. If you don't want to be the emperor, let me do it. What kind of thing is Li Mi?"

Zhai Rang's confidant Wang Ruxin proposed to kill Li Mi.

Li Mi got the news and decided to act first.It happened that Zhai Rang led his army to face Wang Shichong and was defeated again.

Li Mi asked Zhai Rang to go to the military camp to discuss important military affairs.

Zhai Rang took a group of cronies to Li Mi's barracks.

Li Mi sent Cai Jiande, a confidant, to stand behind Zhai Rang.As soon as Zhai Rang sat down, Cai Jiande chopped off his head.Then Li Mi's cronies came out and killed Zhai Kuan and Wang Ruxin.

Xu Shiji was hacked several times.Shan Xiongxin kowtowed and begged for mercy, only to save his life and Xu Shiji's life.

Eighth shot:
After Li Mi completely defeated Wang Shichong, he began to attack Luoyang with all his strength.Li Shimin led 10 horses to aid Luoyang, but was attacked by Luoyang soldiers.

Li Shimin said: "I have newly established Guanzhong, but it is not solid at all. The army is hanging from afar. Although I have the eastern capital, I can't defend it."

Then he led his troops back to Chang'an.

When Li Mi was about to break through the city of Luoyang, Yu Wenhuaji hanged Yang Guang in Yangzhou, and led an army of [-] Xiaoguo, marching towards the north in a mighty manner.

Li Mi was worried about being attacked by the enemy, so he asked Yang Yu, the king of Yue, to surrender.Yang Tong wanted the two tigers to fight each other, so he named Li Mi the Duke of Wei and ordered him to lead the Wagang Army to attack Yuwenhuaji.

Yu Wenhuaji had only one goal, to lead an army of [-] Xiaoguo back to Guanzhong.

The Xiaoguo Army was the most elite army in the Sui Dynasty.

Even though the Wagang soldiers are numerous and mighty like a cloud, they still suffered heavy losses and the soldiers were exhausted in the months of bitter battle with the Xiaoguo Army.

In the end, Li Mi finally defeated the Xiaoguo Army, and Yu Wenhuaji led more than [-] people to retreat to Liaocheng, Shandong.

Ninth shot:
During the battle between Li Mi and Yu Wenhuaji, Wang Shichong suddenly launched a mutiny in Luoyang, killed all the bureaucrats of the Sui Dynasty who were loyal to Yang Tong, and became the real King Zheng.

Then Wang Shichong took advantage of the fact that the Wagang Army hadn't slowed down.He led [-] Jianghuai elites to attack the Wagang Army.
