Chapter 922 The collapse in front of the city

Chapter 922 The collapse in front of the city

The fighting inside the long siege was fierce, and the killing outside the long siege was equally loud. As Li Tai personally entered the battle formation and charged in, cutting off the enemy's formation, the battle fell into a one-sided situation. The cavalry from all sides swarmed up, taking advantage of the chaos of the enemy's formation to further outflank and divide the enemy's troops, making the enemy's situation even more disorganized.

"Come closer to me, gather to me!"

Hu Luguang was still trying hard to restrain the troops and reorganize the team. He constantly led his troops to attack and move into the gaps in the enemy's formation, trying to regroup the troops. However, the enemy's formation was also constantly changing and intercepting.

In order to avoid getting into a fight, Hu Luguang could only gallop on his horse. In the end, instead of being able to recruit more soldiers, the people around him were constantly being scattered and left behind, and the situation became more and more critical. Embarrassed.

"The thief will escape!"

Because he was too active on the battlefield, Hu Luguang was gradually noticed by the enemy soldiers. Many soldiers joined in the pursuit and interception of him, and his situation suddenly became dangerous.

"Lord, it's better to evacuate the battlefield temporarily!"

When a soldier saw that there were more and more enemies around him and his own soldiers were falling behind and dying, he couldn't help but persuade Hu Luguang loudly.

Hu Luguang saw that there were only less than a hundred people left around him. He looked around and saw the enemy troops with fierce looks on their faces. He knew in his heart that there was nothing he could do to save the day, so he could only use his remaining strength to lead the remaining troops to rush out of the battle formation. .

When he arrived at the outskirts of the battlefield, the remaining troops around him had been reduced to only a few dozen people.

On the battlefield at this time, the battle was still going on. However, the Qi army officers and soldiers who had lost their command and were divided and surrounded all fell into fighting on their own. They were still resisting and fighting with their survival instincts. However, Casualties are also rising rapidly.

Hu Luguang felt ashamed and annoyed when he saw this fighting scene. He gritted his teeth and rushed towards the area where the fighting was most intense, trying to reorganize the team to break out.

However, as he returned to the battlefield, the Wei soldiers who had been chasing him came up to fight again, trying hard to intercept him and start a fight. Several attempts to rush in were fruitless, but instead caused the deaths of several people around him.

"Spare your life, spare your life! I am willing to surrender!"

On the battlefield, seeing more and more people around him died in battle, and the enemy's battle formation getting tighter and tighter, some Qi army officers lost their fighting spirit, and abandoned their weapons and begged for surrender. However, they were still inevitably killed, and finally There were still some clever people who hurriedly switched to Chinese and begged for surrender. Only in this way were they surrendered and their lives were saved.

Hu Luguang originally led 6,000 elite soldiers to the aid of Jinyong City. Yesterday's battle resulted in more than 2,000 casualties. Now, only one night passed before they fought again. After a short but fierce battle, except for the dozens of soldiers under his command, the remaining nearly 4,000 men and horses were almost completely wiped out!

Even though Hu Luguang had been in battle for a long time, such a tragic defeat was rare in his life. After suffering such a cruel blow and seeing the battles on the battlefield end one after another, his heart felt haggard and he wanted to cry without tears.

As several stubborn enemy troops on the battlefield died or surrendered, the Wei army that ended the frontal battlefield battle had more and more mobile forces, so they separated out several lines of cavalry and began to expand the scope of the pursuit, chasing down the remaining deserters around the battlefield. They were also eliminated one by one, including Hu Luguang and his party.

Seeing the enemy troops approaching, Hu Luguang's face was pale and his expression was dull. The soldiers next to him hurriedly stepped forward to grab the bridle of his horse and said quickly: "Lord, the thieves are too fierce. It is not good for today's battle. It’s time to evacuate as soon as possible!”

However, Hu Luguang didn't seem to hear this. He just looked at the enemy's war flag fluttering in the wind with sorrow and anger, and said in a bitter voice: "My father is still trapped, how can I bear to retreat?"

"Now that our division and brigade have been wiped out, even if we stay here, it will be of no use. The Pingyuan King's army has not returned yet, but there are still troops stationed in Heyang! Rushing to Heyang to ask for help, and luring the troops stationed in Heyang to fight again is the right plan!"

Seeing that Hu Luguang was already a little confused after being beaten, the soldiers quickly opened their mouths to persuade him.

"Yes, Heyang, there are still troops stationed in Heyang! Ask Heyang for help, come back and fight, come again!"

After hearing this, Hu Luguang's confused eyes regained focus, and he said repeatedly. At the same time, he looked at the other side of the long sand embankment and murmured in a deep voice: "Ah, wait, wait, wait, Go back quickly and lead King Fufeng to come again to defeat the thief!"

Then he no longer hesitated and led the remaining tribesmen around him, whipping up his horse and escaping in the direction of Heyang.

After the battle outside the Changwei ended, Li Tai left some soldiers to clean up the battlefield, while he led the Chinese troops and horses into the battlefield in the inner circle through the gap in the Changwei.

On the battlefield at this time, the fighting between the two sides became more and more intense, because Hulujin sent out elite heavy armored cavalry at the beginning of the battle, directly pushing the battle into the Wei army's lines.

However, restricted by the long wall, the Qi army was unable to maintain its superiority and continue to expand its results. Instead, it gradually lost its advantage under the Wei army's tenacious resistance and counterattack. Even the heavy armored cavalry were trapped in the formation. They failed to move to the battlefield in time and suffered heavy casualties.

"Reporting to Grand Master, Hou Mochen's consort died in battle..."

Hearing the general report about the battle, Hu Lujin couldn't help but secretly take a deep breath. The consort of Hou Mochen, as reported by the general, was named Hou Mochen Guile. His father, Hou Mochenxiang, was also a member of Jinyang’s nobility. He followed Emperor Taizu to build the capital and fought with great merit in the Battle of Hanling. , it can be said that he has made outstanding achievements and was named the White Water King by Jin not long ago.

Hou Mo Chen Guile can be said to be a general's son. He was outstanding in bravery, so he served as the commander of the heavy cavalry in the army, but he did not expect to disappear on the battlefield in this battle.

"Please ask Gao Mi Gong to lead his troops to attack the bandits!"

Seeing that the advantage on the battlefield was gradually being equalized or even surpassed, and worried about the battle situation outside the long perimeter, Hulujin ordered a general to lead thousands of troops to continue attacking the enemy's formation.

Gaomi Gong Han is the son of Han Xian, the former governor of Luozhou. As early as the early Eastern Wei Dynasty, Han Xian was in charge of Heluo and eventually died in office. Therefore, there were many people from Heluo in his army, so Koreans also joined the army this time. Come south.

At this time, all the heavy armored cavalry were dead and wounded on the battlefield, and the front line that had already advanced close to the sand embankment was pushed back by the Wei army. However, as the Koreans led thousands of troops to join the battle, the battle line was suddenly hit and sawed again. Some Wei soldiers who had fought bravely and rushed too far directly fell into the enemy's formation. There were enemies everywhere around them, and the situation became precarious.

Han Qinhu and other young men were also trapped in the enemy formation. The enemies around them were rushing towards them like a tide. Fortunately, they had excellent armor and could withstand most damage. The tomahawk weapon in their hands also had considerable lethality. In the battle formation, Not only was he not overwhelmed, he was able to continue to charge forward slowly despite the pressure.

When Li Tai led his troops into Changwei, what he saw was such a scene of fierce fighting.

So he ordered the officers and soldiers of the Chinese army to join the battle immediately, and ordered the enemy weapons and staffs, heads and prisoners captured in the battle outside to be arranged on one side of the battlefield, and then he shouted: "The bandits outside the city have been killed. Let's fight again here to take the head of Hu Lü Jin!"

As the number of Wei soldiers in the battle increased sharply, and when they heard this shout again, the Qi soldiers on the battlefield became more panicked and their fighting spirit gradually lost. Many people turned around and wanted to flee the battlefield, unwilling to continue fighting. .

With such a reversal of the situation, Han Qinhu and others who were trapped in the enemy's formation also felt that the pressure around them suddenly decreased. The enemies no longer came to surround them with high morale, but instead fought and retreated.

Han Qinhu and others were unwilling to give up such an opportunity, and took advantage of the enemy's fear to kill all sides. Because he felt that the armor on his body was too heavy and cumbersome, Han Qinhu simply took off his armor and only wore the inner lining. The single-clothes man waved his battle ax and continued to charge into the enemy formation.

Soon an enemy squad appeared in front of Han Qinhu. A dozen soldiers followed a general in fine armor and quickly evacuated to the rear. Seeing this, Han Qinhu immediately knew that this was an encounter. After catching a big fish, he immediately called his nearby companions to rush towards it.

"You picked up the gold and silver by yourself. If you continue to harass me, your life will be hard to save!"

At this time, the Korean on horseback was eager to get out of the battle and did not want to stay in the battle formation anymore, so he threw the gold and jade pendants on his body on the ground, and looked back at Han Qinhu and other young men and threatened them angrily.

When Han Qinhu heard this, he burst into laughter and ignored the belongings on the ground. He just held a battle ax and strode towards the Korean. He laughed and said: "I am about to seize the thief's head and make a name for himself. The thief Who are you going to seduce with this vulgar thing?"

As he spoke, he threw the long ax forward in his hand, and the ax blade hit the Korean's calf. He screamed in pain and fell off the horse. Before he could struggle to get up, Han Qinhu stepped forward. In one step, he grabbed the back of the neck and pushed his head and face into the mud.

The Qi army was defeated on the battlefield, and the news of the end of the battle outside the sand embankment and the great victory of the Wei army was also spread to the military formation in front of Jin Yong City. When Hu Lujin learned about this, he suddenly looked excited and anxious, and quickly stepped forward to grab the message. The soldier's hand quickly asked: "How is my son Mingyue? Did he escape from the enemy's position, or has he fought..."

The soldier also heard the Wei people shouting on the battlefield. He couldn't explain the specific situation. He just shook his head after hearing Hu Lujin's question. Hu Lujin asked again and again, wanting to confirm whether his son was alive or dead.

"The Qiang army has already arrived, why don't you order them to retreat immediately! But here is the old man who only loves his son, and treats me, Jinyang soldiers, as pigs and dogs!"

Seeing that the enemy troops were coming towards him, Hu Lujin only asked for news about his son and ignored the danger. A general nearby couldn't help but shouted angrily, and immediately led his troops to evacuate towards the city gate without paying attention to anything else.

After this example, the other generals also led their troops to retreat. Because there was no orderly coordination, the armies rushed to enter the city gate, and soon there was a crowd in front of the city gate.

At this time, the Wei army's light cavalry also rushed out from behind the Qi army's rout on the battlefield, and charged towards the enemy formation in front of the city gate. For a time, the Qi army was in chaos. The city gates were crowded and trampled, and the troops were in chaos.

"Old thief Hulu is here, follow me to kill the general and take the merit!"

The officers and soldiers of the Wei army who quickly rushed to the city gate noticed Hulujin's group of men, and immediately shouted and charged towards them.

At this time, Hu Lujin was also panicked and had no good strategy to deal with the enemy. He could only run around the city wall under the soldiers to avoid the pursuit of the Wei army.
