(Because it's more than 5,000 words, it's a bit late.)

A news after the end of the summer heat in the first year of Xiangfu shocked the court and the country.

Yang Shenxing, the general of Anguo, faced less than 10,000 enemy troops, and 40,000 Ji Nan's sharp soldiers were defeated again and again. First, they lost nearly half of the cavalry and retreated to the Qingyang Basin, and were attacked from both sides. The cavalry was completely wiped out. After this battle, Yang Shenxing, who was in danger of his late reign, became a rat crossing the street. Except for the Ministry of War ruled by Lu Baijie, the other five departments and two censors in Tai'an City launched wave after wave of impeachment against the old general, and it was reasonable and well-founded, saying that he ignored the military orders of the chief general Lu Shengxiang and went south without authorization. After going south, he was full of exposure that this person was "old". Not only did he have no troops, but he also mobilized troops to be foolish. Facing the remnants of Western Chu, the shrimp soldiers and crab generals, he fell to a vulnerable point! Where is the national prestige in Liyang?

Yang Shenxing didn't care about the turmoil and uneasiness above the temple. The old general and his Ji Nan infantry, whose combat power was still intact, became an old turtle in a jar, even he himself found it ridiculous.

The white-haired general showed an aging expression no matter how he covered it. The eldest son Yang Huchen survived the cavalry battle a few days ago, but lost one of his arms. His grandson Yang Wenqi was also severely injured in the battle six days ago and is still lying on the sickbed with a smell of fishy medicine. Yang Shenxing had never fought such a frustrating battle. Huchen's three thousand light cavalry failed to defeat the one thousand iron cavalry. This is nothing. Winning and defeat are common in military affairs. It was him, Yang Shenxing, who took it lightly and infringed on the military.

The old man actually didn't have too many resentments. However, the development of the situation later made General Anguo almost kill people. The three thousand rich soldiers who had never suffered too much casualties in the first cavalry battle had seen the power of the heavy cavalry charge with their own eyes, actually asked to leave the army immediately, pass through the Qingyang Basin, and withdraw to the north of Qinshuijin Ferry. This was okay. Yang Shenxing did not refuse, but suggested that he slowly retreat with the infantry army to prevent the opponent's large number of light cavalry launching an attack.

, never thought that those bastards promised well, and in a blink of an eye, they fled north with their personal guards overnight. After learning the news, Yang Shenxing had to pull out the camp and move northward, and let his grandson Yang Wenqi dispatch nearly all the cavalry to escort him. Yang Shenxing could only hope that the commander of the Western Chu to be in charge of the Eastern Front Battle, and could not seize the opportunity of the separation of his infantry and cavalry, and even let the front army make signs of slaughtering the town of Yanxiao. However, in the early morning of the next day, his grandson, who was covered in blood, only brought back hundreds of them.

The Jinan Cavalry, the more than 3,000 culprits, were safe and sound. Yang Wenqi, whose big meat was cut off from his shoulder, burst into tears, saying that the enemy's light cavalry was extremely good at night fighting and divided the troops into several ways. Not only did they attack the Jinan Cavalry that they were preparing to hurry, but they also deliberately drove the three thousand cavalry that were not even considered useless to disrupt the formation. Yang Wenqi's cavalry could only use 300 as a battalion, and then they could not die, so that they could protect the more than 2,800 people who should be damned but could not die.

After his grandson fainted, Yang Shenxing asked in detail about several defeated cavalry commanders. The veteran general became more and more frightened. According to their words, the enemy cavalry was not only good at night raids, but also had superb archery skills. Even the outer safari of Beimang barbarians imitated them in a well-like manner, neither approaching nor far away, and always kept at the distance of two arrows. One arrow charges and one arrow rains after shooting out. This repeated requires extremely skilled equestrian and archery as the foundation. Such a lack of cohesion swaying tactic is not impeccable.

If his grandson Yang Wenqi left the three thousand cavalry and left the army, he would not have to pay such a huge bloody price at all. After that, there was no movement on the side of the Qingxiao side. Just a small group of cavalry wandered far away outside the encirclement, leisurely shooting and killing the scouts and spies who tried to convey military information from Ji Nan army. Instead, as soon as Yang Shenxing showed signs of the movement of the army, the opposite side could quickly mobilize the cavalry and gathered in the Qingyang Basin on the back, and a thousand iron cavalry were waiting from afar, making a charge with cavalry and sprinting.

At that moment, Yang Shenxing finally knew that the general on the opposite side had no idea of ​​competing with their Ji Nan infantry, but had predicted the mentality of Yang Shenxing and the special three thousand cavalry. He first lured the Yang family cavalry to attack, first hurt morale, and used heavy cavalry to scare the courage of the playboys. He guessed that these bastards could not escape regardless of the overall situation, and their Ji Nan cavalry could not escape, and their Ji Nan cavalry could not help but cut their flesh with a blunt knife, and ate the cavalry bit by bit. It can be said that Yang Shenxing did look at the combat power shown by the enemy, but the veteran general who had been through many battles was not afraid of it. But the loss was because he had lost Yang Shenxing had to take risks twice in a row, one by intentional gifts of military merit, and the other by saving their lives. The result was that the few more than 5,000 cavalry in the Ji Nan army were extremely dead!

After suffering a miserable defeat that he had not seen for many years, the old Ji Nan was a soldier who was brought out by Yang Shenxing. He did not cry out for the sky and the earth. Instead, he was silently camping in a place with dense rivers and abundant water sources. He dug out three trenches, and there were even more berths more than two meters high. Between the wide trenches of two people, cutting as much as possible, nailing the bottom to death, and the tops of the smoked tree were arranged upwards, interspersing and connecting layers, and the soil near the inside and outside of the trenches were compacted. A solid arrow tower rose from the ground, and a single tower was

The tent was raised up, and the Ji Nan army had sufficient food and supplies, and did not rely heavily on the supply line behind him. Moreover, the cavalry of the Yang Dynasty, especially in the late Spring and Autumn Period, with the support of the unobstructed post road, first-class soldiers, carrying military armor and carrying heavy loads for half a day, could travel a hundred miles, while the light-haired cavalry of pure light cavalry can achieve a striking advancement speed. Lu Shengxiang's cavalry galloped continuously, claiming to travel 300 miles a day, even surpassing Chu Lushan's thousand cavalry to open Shu. However, after all, the latter was on the Shu road, and the Yi cavalry that could be replaced all the way, were not here.

No matter how the post stations in Liyang are being reduced and abolished over the years, the post roads in the southern part of the capital are still open, which is exactly what Yang Shenxing is confident. Waiting for reinforcements is that he will never be besieged to death before this, and he will not even need to go to the south of the Ji Nan army to jump over the wall.

However, Yang Shenxing was still exhausted and was even more exhausted than fighting on the battlefield. In order to appease the wealthy and noble children in the capital who had already lost a battle and suffered a great loss, the old generals who had lost a battle and suffered a great loss. Because the old man knew why Lu Shengxiang, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War, had a frivolous military power. It was the secret obstruction of the civil servants in the capital who went on a large army. Not only was a general or even a Ministry of War that could handle it. If a Ministry of Revenue was deliberately delayed, he could find more than a dozen sufficient excuses to slow down the marching schedule, but no one could find a reason to refute. The fathers of a thousand families of aristocratic families joined forces to weave a mud in the Liyang Temple, making Lu Shengxiang unable to quickly control the entire army. However, after being attacked by the Qingqingyang Basin, after learning that his descendants were trapped, they could help the six ministries to operate extremely smoothly overnight.

The reason why Yang Shenxing brought the cavalry that was defeated by the golden jade was because the old general knew better than anyone else that the needles were hidden in the temple in Liyang. However, Yang Shenxing did not expect that the enemy's chief general was so vicious and cruel.

As Yang Shenxing expected, although countless people were denying Yang Shenxing's actual position in the court in Tai'an City, Lu Baijie, the Minister of War, who said nothing during this period, suddenly felt like a word of nothing. Those officials who thought that Yang Shenxing had 40,000 Yan Zhenchun had 30,000 or 70,000 were already very illusions, and were quite damn badly. They changed their faces overnight and told the treacherous remnants of Western Chu that they were preparing to fight with the imperial army on the front line north of Chunxiao, and needed to send another meritorious veteran to the battlefield. Lu Shengxiang, as the commander of the dispatching army, allowed Yang Shenxing and his troops to besiege him. They were already extremely inscrutable and did not punish them. It was just because it was not appropriate to change the commander in the last battle!

Lu Baijie's proposal was submerged in the fierce court discussion. Lu Shengxiang needed to make meritorious contributions. Apart from the title of a commander, there was actually not much force to make meritorious contributions. The real leader was Wu Jun, a veteran of the Spring and Autumn Period who was steady in use. This time, he dispatched 30,000 elite military soldiers from the Wu army in the Jingji Army.

And under a secret order from the Ministry of War, Yan Zhenchun drove straight from the Eastern Henan Plain, and finally stopped in the Sancang area, then turned east and made a condescending force to push forward the army to support Wu Jun's 30,000 troops. At that time, whether the cavalry led by Yan Zhenchun attacks or defends, it still depends on the order of the Ministry of War!

———

Outside Youlu Pass, Lu Shengxiang was still blind to the movement of troops on Guangling Road in the south, but criticism from the capital in the north continued to spread to the big tent, and there was a bleak atmosphere of storm. The lieutenants of Youlu Pass, who were originally dedicated and diligent every day, have lost their shadows in the past few days.

Lu Shengxiang sat on the grass outside the camp, beside Guo Dongfeng, who was still feeding horses recently. The latter said angrily: "This Tangxi Sword Immortal is a god-like sword immortal. He has become a minister of the Ministry of War. He is not as good as farts when speaking like this?!"

Lu Shengxiang said calmly: "Lu Baijie is considered to be a conscience, and he also knows to say a few fair words to me and suggests that I lead my troops south."

Guo Dongfeng sneered: "Is there a conscience? Then why didn't he mention that Yang Shenxing's old fool said good things? The six thousand cavalry that he had accumulated over ten years was ruined by those playboys in less than ten days, and in the end he could not have a good word."

Lu Shengxiang smiled indifferently and said, "Lu Baijie is not stupid, and the guy who curses in the temple is not really stupid. Many words are known to be one thing in his stomach, but it is another thing to say it. As long as Lu Baijie still wants to stabilize his position, he has to work hard and tear down the east and west walls. If Gu Jiantang was in the Ministry of War, it would not be like this. Of course, General Gu is in Tai'an City now, and I will not have the day to stand out for me, Lu Shengxiang."

Guo Dongfeng snorted coldly, "The chief general of Xi Chu was also in his mind and regarded the front line of the Qingxiao Army as a battlefield for competing for troops and national strength. Do you really think that eating Yang Shenxing's 40,000 Ji Nan infantry would be fine?"

Lu Shengxiang glanced at Guo Dongfeng, "The civil servants in the court are stupid, are you stupid too?"

Guo Dongfeng was stunned for a moment and said with a shocked look: "Xi Chu really planned to eat Yan Zhenchun's 30,000 cavalry from the beginning? Can you eat it? Yan Zhenchun is not Yang Shenxing, so why aren't you afraid of choking to death? Could it be that Cao Changqing is going to take action himself?"

Lu Shengxiang looked into the distance and said with a sneer: "You guy widen your eyes and look at me well. I have a premonition that Xi Chu will emerge in this war, and the first few young people who will become your mortal enemy in the future."

Guo Dongfeng laughed and said, "This relationship is good."

———

Thirty miles north of Sancang, Yan Zhenchun, who was traveling slowly in a 30,000 cavalry, was struggling to report military information. There were enemy troops five miles away, all of which were light cavalry, no less than 20,000 cavalry!

A vast plain, a wide battlefield.

The autumn wind whistles and flags flies.

The old general Yan, who had always been serious, looked up at the bright red Yan character on the flag, and then looked back at the Yan family'erlang who was not afraid of fighting.

The old man said in a deep voice: "Pick up the flag!"

The old general Yan Zhenchun, who was supposed to be in charge of the rear, was going to lead the way? Immediately, several confidant generals came forward to stop him. Yan Zhenchun held the spear "reed" that had accompanied him for many years and shook his head and said, "Winning is probably the last battle in his life. You can't stand here and watch. If you lose, it's even the last battle. How can you die on the way to escape?"

As soon as Yan Zhenchun said this, the generals were speechless.

The army presses forward, and the flag moves forward.

The same is true for the enemy's 20,000 light cavalry.

Yan Zhenchun led 30,000 troops against the wind, and the Western Chu cavalry was 20,000, which was 20,000.

There is no dominant slope under the horse's hooves on both sides, and there is no infantry formation.

The area here is vast, and you can spread a front line of a sufficient width or throw it into the cavalry in batches. Therefore, it can be said that the command talents of the cavalry commanders of both hostile sides can be perfectly demonstrated, and the combat power of the cavalry is more likely to be perfectly reflected.

This is an excellent battlefield where whoever is weak will lose, and whoever retreats will die.

No luck at all.

Almost at the same time, two horns suddenly whimpered like a distance, majestic and sad.

As if it were the same, the first horizontal cavalry of both sides launched a charge, and after rushing out of half the distance of the horse, the second row immediately launched a fierce charge.

The physical and stance of each row of war horses are almost the same, so that the charge speed of each rear cavalry does not affect the slightest.

The length of the horizontal front lines of both sides is comparable, but Yan Zhenchun's cavalry team has a relatively superior number of players and has a larger depth.

Several cavalry suddenly appeared on the far side of the charge between the two armies. A few cavalry, no matter the overall situation, they were not wearing armor. Among them, there was the young man who followed Pei Sui, a son of Pei's family, to climb the beacon tower on the top of Luohuqiu Mountain, Xie Xiquan.

It was this unknown poor family of Western Chu who had the courage to give guidance to the great figures such as Cao Changqing and Sun Xiji, and was laughed at by Cao Changqing as "Xie Banju". This young man summed up the strategic plan of restoring the entire Western Chu country to "being beaten" and "beating people".

In fact, the entire northern line was decided by Xie Xiquan.

From the capture of the King Xiao Army Town at the last moment, to the subsequent lure of the enemy and night attacks, to the siege without attack, to attracting the Liyang court to take the initiative to lure the Yan Zhenchun cavalry to Sancang, until now, I stood by and watched from afar.

All come from this person's strategy.

A middle-aged strong man sitting on the horse's back was one head higher than Xie Xici asked in a deep voice: "General Xie, you really don't need to use the three thousand heavy cavalry hidden behind you right away? You really don't need to send orders to ask them to wear armor and get on the horse? Yan Zhenchun's 30,000 cavalry are not soft persimmons!"

Xie Xici pursed his lips and shook his head and said, "It doesn't make sense to use the heavy rider too fast or too slow."

Xie Xici exhaled a breath of turbid air and said slowly: "Besides, killing two light cavalry is still a profit than killing one heavy cavalry. It can even be said that three thousand heavy cavalry will win unless they are expelled. If you know that investing in heavy cavalry cannot change the decline, then the 20,000 light cavalry can fight to disperse the spirit of Yan Zhenchun's cavalry. Even if this battle is over, I would rather not have a light cavalry left and take the heavy cavalry back to deal with the next cavalry battle!"

The strong man glanced at the young commander of the Liyang government and the country, who was definitely not famous, and smiled.

This person was born in Longxing, the founding emperor of the Great Chu Dynasty. It once had the reputation of "Four Princes of Ten Miles and Four". After the Emperor Taizu of Great Chu became emperor, he was granted more than 160 generals and marquis, and there were as many as 46 people in that place!

There is a custom of sewing cloth for newborns in every household, which expresses a beautiful expectation of the old saying "Although the young tiger has not become a pattern, it has the spirit of eating cows."

But this young man named Xie Xiquan is definitely not the descendant of those generals and marquis who have made outstanding achievements in their military achievements.

But it doesn't matter, because he is Cao Changqing's only disciple.

Xie Xipu kept watching the situation of the battle coldly. Half an hour, an hour later, the strong man and several men around him were sweating.

Xie Xici raised his butt, stretched his neck and looked at it a few times, his lips moved slightly, and he murmured to himself.

Still waiting.

Several men who had participated in the Spring and Autumn War began to look anxious.

On the battlefield, five thousand cavalry were killed in battle, and more than six thousand Yan Zhenchun also died.

This is a battlefield where no one evacuates, and no one side retreats, compared with the total number, such a huge number of deaths and still fighting to the death is simply horrifying. Because there are cavalry participating in the confrontation battle, the real casualties are often when one side is defeated and evacuated, and at that time, large-scale casualties will really increase dramatically.

The sweaty strong man pulled the collar and punched the horse hard.

Xie Xici was still expressionless.

The strong man looked at the sky and whispered: "General Xie, if we trade life for life, we will lose!"

Xie Xici nodded softly, still indifferent.

Another man said angrily: "I am going to launch a heavy cavalry to the frontcourt. I am not as hard-hearted as you, Xifeng!"

Xie Xici said oh and said calmly: "Wei Hong, if you dare to go, I will dare to kill you."

The man gritted his teeth and said, "Just rely on your three-legged cat kung fu?!"

Not far away, a pretty boy carrying four long swords hesitated for a moment and said with a cold face: "I, Lu Sichu, can kill you."

The man shouted: "Lu Sichu, don't think your grandfather is Lu Dantian, I'm afraid of you!"

Xie Xici said calmly: "I have said a long time ago that either Yan Zhenchun is killed or the Yan family cavalry has been fully energized, which is the time for us to go into battle. You can do whatever Lu Dantian is, but since you are a soldier of our army, you have to listen to the military orders. If you want to die, I won't stop you, but please Wei Hong dies on the battlefield in the future and under the horse hooves of the Liyang cavalry."

The hideous man rubbed his face hard, tilted his head and spit out, "I lost this battle. Even if I violate the order, I will kill you with my own hands!"

After half an hour felt that it was extremely long, Xie Xici said in a deep voice: "Liu Cong, Wei Hong, follow the order!"

Wei Hong cursed and turned his head like crazy, "Listen to your mother's military order! I will kill the enemy now, win, and you can just go back and kill me!"

The strong man who asked Liu Cong to leave with his fists.
Chapter completed!
