Lord of the House

At the beginning, Lin Fu sent Liu Xilin to lead three hundred soldiers into Xuzhou City for three purposes: one was to confuse Chen Hansan, thinking that Liu Xilin was really representing Huaidong to conspire with him to deceive and lure the enemy; the other was to retreat to Chu during the war. The palace, using the palace of the Chu palace to contain Chen Hansan's forces in the city, still has to confuse Chen Hansan's judgment; the third is to cooperate with the Huaidong army who rushed to the city at this time, storm the city gate, and welcome the army. into the city.

Although Yuan Hancheng, the king of Chu, had also experienced wars, his understanding of the military was very limited after all. Seeing that the number of rebels in Xuzhou was still large, he wanted to hold on to the palace. Shaking, it is impossible to have much will to fight, even if the number of enemy troops in the city is doubled, Liu Xilin also dares to fight, why fear three thousand enemy soldiers scattered throughout the city?

Although Liu Xilin could ignore Yuan Hancheng's advice and lead three hundred soldiers to rush out of the Chu residence alone, he should respect Zhang Yubo's advice.

Zhang Yubo saw that Liu Xilin came over, he had worked with Liu Xilin for many years, how could he not know his firmness of mind? Grasping the saber at his waist, he said, "The rebels are no longer able to attack the palace of the king of Chu, and the guard is enough to defend the camp; great achievements are at your fingertips, and the three hundred brave soldiers should not be able to stand here. Please sit here, my lord, and Xilin and I will rush out and capture one. City gate, welcome Huaidong soldiers into Xuzhou City!"

"Master Zhang and the Prince of Chu stay here, cooperating in the center, and we, the military men, will do it to rush to kill the enemy..." Liu Xilin said, as long as Zhang Yubo agrees, he does not want a civilian to follow the adventure. If Zhang Yubo There are three long and two short, but he doesn't want to explain it.

Although Yuan Hancheng was conservative, but not pedantic, he called the commander of the guard camp of the palace to him and said, "You go and ask the generals of the guard camp, if there are those who are willing to take military exploits and gain wealth, they can rush out with Captain Liu... …”

The commander of the battalion did not want to risk his own life to be greedy for merit. At this time, he had to defend the palace and not let the chaotic army pour in. However, there were generals under his command who went out to kill him. Naturally, he was indispensable for winning the military merit. He sent his cronies to go out to recruit volunteers who were willing to go out to fight for military merit.

For the lower-level officers and soldiers who had no background and only depended on courage to make a living, there was no way out, and there were not a few adventurous people who dared to lick blood at the edge of the knife; More than 30 people stood up, willing to rush out with Liu Xilin.

Liu Xilin quickly gathered 500 strong and brave soldiers, used Huaidong's top soldiers to fight in the front line, and used the lower door as a large shield, opened the north gate, and rushed towards the rebels blocked by the north gate.

Zhang Yubo and Liu Xilin led their troops to retreat into the Chu palace. Chen Hansan was unwilling to contain too many troops for the Chu palace. He only arranged five or six hundred soldiers to block the north and south gates, hoping to defeat the main force of the Huaidong Army entering Xuzhou , and then clean up these little trash fish. Who would have thought that these little trash fishes, which were inconspicuous at the beginning of the war, became the last straw to crush the rebels at this time.

The rebels demolished the houses outside the north and south gates of the Chu palace, and used bricks and stones to build a protective wall about the height of the chest, and objects such as repulsion of horses, forming a simple barricade. If there was no change in the Jingmahe battlefield, it would be enough to use barricades and two battalions of soldiers to block more than a thousand miscellaneous soldiers in the Chu palace.

At this time, the situation reversed. The main force of the Xuzhou rebels was defeated in the Jingmahe battlefield, and the casualties and injuries were wild. The impact on the minds of both parties involved was earth-shaking.

The Huaidong Army was rushing towards Xuzhou City, and there were only 3,000 guards left in Xuzhou City. Even at this time, no one knew whether Chen Hansan was dead or alive, and people were panicking.

The Huaidong Army came to Xuzhou City with cavalry, and the number was only six or seven hundred, but at this time, the Huaidong Army completely grasped the Jingma River battlefield, and more troops and horses would be dispatched to attack Xuzhou City at any time.

The six or seven hundred cavalry of the Huaidong Army who came in advance were more like preventing the three thousand defenders from Xuzhou City from escaping the city calmly.

The defenders at the head of Xuzhou's city, at this time, were not thinking about defending the city and waiting for help, but thinking about whether they could escape, or simply open the door and surrender, and whether they could save their lives.

The five or six hundred rebels deployed at the north gate of the Chu Palace, how could they continue to block the Chu Palace at this time? It's just that he didn't receive further orders, and he didn't dare to evacuate easily, but when Liu Xilin led more than 500 brave soldiers out like wolves and tigers, seeing that it was useless to block with bows and crossbows, his fighting spirit was like a pile of sand towers. Just one last poke.

The barricade wall was only chest-high, and the Huaidong military soldiers rushed to the vicinity and put the door panels upside down to form a stairway. At present, dozens of soldiers are wearing thick armor, wielding heavy weapons such as swords and stabbing guns, and under the cover of two-winged archers, they forcibly climbed the stairs, jumped off the parapet, and smashed into the rebels.

As more and more armoured soldiers rushed over the barricades, the rebels at the north gate of the palace could not resist their retreat. At first, there were rules and regulations for advancing and returning. I don’t know who took the lead in fleeing. The hundreds of remnants fled in swarms. Liu Xilin ignored the defeat of these remnants. The rebels in the city were mainly concentrated in Beicheng, and he led them directly to Dongcheng. go to the door.

Liu Xilin led his troops out from the Chu palace, and the last of the three thousand rebels in Xuzhou city collapsed. First, the half-battalion of rebels in Xicheng abandoned the city gate, and then the five hundred and six rebels who blocked the south gate of the Chu palace scattered. The feet fled to the north city.

There were more than 300 rebels at Dongcheng Gate, and the defenders still wanted to resist, but when Liu Xilin led his troops to attack, the defenders chopped off their heads with a knife, and the rest knelt down and surrendered begging for mercy.

The rebels in the city were so vulnerable, Li Liang led cavalry outside the city to intercept the rebels fleeing from the city, and was not in a hurry to enter the city for a while, Liu Xilin left a team of soldiers to guard the east gate, and then led The Ministry went to the Si Yamen, the system envoy of Chen Hansan, to kill him.

Although Xuzhou is poor, Chen Hansan is also a hero. The accumulation of these years will not be too small, and the more important thing is that Chen Hansan cannot be allowed to escape calmly from his family behind the Si Yamen...

*************

That He Xiongqi learned that Chen Han's three divisions had been defeated, and knew that he had lost the opportunity to capture Xuzhou City, and shouted in hatred.

That He Xiongqi didn't come slowly, as long as Chen Hansan could hold on for another hour, even if he couldn't win, it would be safe to press 10,000 elite riders from the flanks and eat 20,000 Huaidong elites. Who would have guessed that? Chen Hansan couldn't even withstand the first counterattack of the Huaidong Army?

Chen Hansan's 20,000 soldiers and horses are still called elites, elite ass!

That He Xiongqi's face was as cold as cold water, but he was extremely angry and cursed at his mother.

Just a moment ago, I was secretly rejoicing at the great victory that was about to happen at my fingertips, but now I have to have a headache and how to clean up the mess.

The gap was so huge that it was difficult for Na Hexiongqi, who had always been calm and steady, to accept.

When rushing to kill the enemy, morale is the most important factor that cannot be ignored.

Although He Xiongqi and Zhou Zhizhong still had 30,000 soldiers and horses available, but at this moment his own strength was lost, He Xiongqi knew that even if he overwhelmed the more than 10,000 cavalry who had traveled nearly 400 miles in two days and nights Going up to fight, it is impossible to shake the position of the Huaidong Army.

Vice Admiral Hexiong Qiling led the main force to rest at Weimiaopo, and he led more than a thousand cavalry to the periphery of Shajiaji to watch the situation.

Zhou Pu, Sun Zhuang, and Li Liang led their troops to gallop on both sides of the Jingma River to kill Chen Hansan's broken troops. Liu Miaozhen led more than 10,000 elites to stand in front of Shajiaji, forming a solid formation like a mountain.

Mo Jiben was ordered to guard the camp, and Zhou Zhizhong, surrounded by more than a thousand cavalry, came out of the Shajiaji to join Na Hexiongqi.

"The general is incompetent, please punish that Hexiongqi!" Zhou Zhizhong got off his horse and knelt in front of Hexiongqi's horse to plead guilty.

"General Zhou, get up, I can't blame you for this, and blame me for being one step late!" He Xiongqi had a fire in his heart and didn't dismount to help Zhou Zhizhong up, but he also knew that Zhou Zhizhong couldn't be blamed for this battle. .

If there is a responsibility, it should be that Ye Jiduodi and Yuan Lishan were too conservative when Chen Hansan sent his son as a pledge to seek attachment.

Zhou Zhizhong's department was originally a stone to ask for directions. If they decided to send 20,000 elite cavalry to take Xuzhou City from the beginning, how could there be a chance for the Huaidong Army?

Zhou Zhizhong also did not ask that He Xiongqi could get off his horse to help him, but after hearing what He Xiongqi said, he stood up from the snow.

In any case, he and Chen Hansan joined forces with 40,000 troops, and even gave the Huaidong Army to defeat Chen Hansan in a calm manner. He couldn’t say that he was not guilty at all—the biggest responsibility was that the Huaidong Army was too cunning. Can you expect that the ice layer of Jingma River will break at a critical moment, and almost in the blink of an eye, Chen Han's third department will be thrown into chaos?

"Xu Shi still has a chance to seize Xuzhou City, please ask that general Xu Mo to make a guilt and make a contribution, and lead his cavalry to go around! Not all the rivers will go to Huaidong!" Zhou Zhizhong was shocked by Huaidong's trick He was reluctant to say that he wanted to fight and lead his troops to take a detour to seize Xuzhou City, but he really didn't want to fight again.

Liu Miaozhen led more than 10,000 foot armors to form a formation in the south of Shajiaji, and there were several rivers passing by around Shajiaji. It was not clear why Huaidong could induce the Jingma River ice to rupture at a critical moment, and how to send troops to wrap Liu Miaozhen's more than 10,000 foot armors. live?

Without entangling the more than 10,000 infantry that Liu Miaozhen formed in the south of Shajiaji, how could they send cavalry to take a long way around to seize Xuzhou City?

Na Hexiongqi and Zhou Zhizhong stood on a hill to the northwest of Shajiaji, and they could see the battlefields on both sides of the Jingma River, where the battlefields were devastated.

That He Xiongqi shook his head in pain and said, "It's too late..."

Having contacted Chen Hansan before, he knew that there were still more than a thousand miscellaneous soldiers in Xuzhou city retreating to the Chu palace and stubbornly resisting.

I didn't think much of it before. After all, not everyone in Xuzhou City was unruly, and they all followed Chen Hansan to defect, but at this time, I could feel that the thousands of miscellaneous soldiers were probably the one-step poison that Huaidong had deployed in Xuzhou City in advance. chess.

Chen Han's three troops collapsed, and the generals and generals panicked and had no fighting spirit~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Huaidong has more than a thousand miscellaneous soldiers in Xuzhou city, which is the decisive force.

I don’t know how long the ice layer of the Jingma River has broken, and there is Jiuli Mountain in the east, so I send cavalry around to Xuzhou. It takes another thirty or forty miles to reach the city of Xuzhou. How can I make it in time?

"Then what should we do now?" Zhou Zhizhong asked, even if the troops were to withdraw immediately, He Xiongqi had to take this idea. At this time, it was still too late to withdraw, but on the south bank of the Jingma River, Chen Hansan still had a remnant of his troops to hold on to the stronghold. Do you want to rescue them?

It is also simple to save the remnants of Chen Hansan on the south bank of the Jingma River. As long as He Xiongqi transfers more than 10,000 elites, the Huaidong Army will inevitably shrink, and even retreat to Xuzhou City. Chen Hansan's remnants on the south bank of the Jingma River will naturally get out of trouble.

But when Huaidong captured Xuzhou, there was no need to send heavy troops to strictly guard the three cities of Suining, Suyu, and Huaiyang on the south side of Xuzhou. Huaidong could mobilize tens of thousands of elites from these three cities to come to Xuzhou for support, and it only took one day. time.

In addition, the troops of Dongyuan in Huaixi first entered Suiyang and Yucheng from the north, while Liang Chengchong had troops and horses in Caozhou and Jining, and these four cities were all on the north side of Xuzhou. Since Xuzhou was captured by Huaidong, Dong Yuan and Liang Chengchong no longer have any worries, will they send troops to Yutai and Peixian to intercept their way back?

You can't risk the safety of 30,000 soldiers and horses for Chen Hansan!

Na Hexiongqi said flatly: "Withdraw, leave immediately!"

That He Xiongqi and Zhou Zhizhong wanted to withdraw, but Liu Miaozhen might not be willing to let them do so.

Just when Hexiongqi made the decision to immediately withdraw to the north, the more than ten thousand Huaidong infantry that had assembled in the south of Shajiaji moved, and again came to Shajiaji camp!

Zhou Zhizhong was shocked and scolded: "This **** has such a big heart that he wants to keep me here!" My QT room is open! More vulgar official QT room number [9167] Click to enter
