Chapter 248 The Xianbei cavalry goes south(1/2)

In Tongwan Town, north of Mizhi County, Li Zicheng's general Gao Yigong led the Eight Thousand Zhongzhen Camp to guard this third-level town and resisted threats from the grassland.

The snow melted, Gao Yigong led a team of cavalry to drink horses by the river.

After a winter loss, the war horses lost a lot of weight and needed to be re-weighted.

Gao Yigong was the brother of Li Zicheng's wife Gao Guiying, and he was in charge of his sister Gao Guiying's loyalty camp.

Gao Guiying's Zhongzhen Camp and Li Zicheng's old camp are both elite troops of the Dashun Army.

The reason why Li Zicheng could occupy the thousands of ravines and ravines of the Loess Plateau and possess more than 100,000 soldiers was related to these two battalions of soldiers.

In addition to Li Zicheng and his wife, Li Zicheng's forces also have many generals.

Gao Yigong is one of the brave generals.

"Sir, when will we conquer Chang'an? We have been hiding in cave villages and are never as moist as the kind of city in Chang'an City."

"That is, the cold winter on the loess high slope is not easy, and the most fertile land in the northwest has been occupied by Zhang Hua."

"If you have the ability, follow the King of Chuang to the south and conquer Chang'an. In my opinion, all our Dashun Army troops may not be able to take Chang'an even if they go south. Wouldn't you be the emperor on the Loess Plateau and be happy?"

Gao Yigong washed the war horses.

This sweat-blooded horse was the spoils given to him by King Li Zicheng of the Breaking King.

Suddenly, Gao Yigong heard the sound of an eagle, looked up at the air, and saw an eagle passing by.

Gao Yigong looked upstream of the river again, and several figures were shaking.

"It's Xianbei people! Capture them alive!"

Gao Yigong saw the opponent's rough appearance clearly and immediately led the cavalry to pursue him!

The Xianbei Iron Eagle Scout was discovered by Gao Yigong and fled to the north.

"How did Xianbei people appear here?"

"No matter what, I can't get rid of my sweat and blood!"

Gao Yigong kept narrowing the distance with the Tieying Scout, trying to capture the Tieying Scout alive, and asking what was going on.

Hundreds of war horses were chasing by the river, splashing water, and horse hoof prints formed puddles.

Dada dada...

A muffled thunder sound came from a distance, and the river surface was trembling.

"Stop!"

Gao Yigong's face turned pale.

He followed Li Zicheng for many years and could distinguish the number of enemy troops by the sound of horse hooves.

Judging from the dense sound of horse hooves, there were thousands of cavalrymen heading south from the north!

Thinking of the Iron Eagle Scout who appeared, it is not difficult to guess that the cavalry that arrived was the Xianbei soldiers.

Sure enough, the cavalry all over the mountains appeared from the end of the horizon, with sand and dust rolling, and the flags of the Wei army fluttering in the wind, endless!

Gao Yigong's cavalry waved their horse whip, urging the war horses to accelerate, and fled back to Tongwan Town.

"The secret whistle in the north has not yet heard of it, and it is very likely that it has been killed by the Xianbei riders."

Gao Yigong's face turned pale.

This group of Xianbei people came badly. The ice and snow had just melted. They immediately went south, probably because they were taking advantage of the beginning of spring to rob Li Zicheng of the food stored.

Li Zicheng divided the land evenly, and advisers such as Li Yan and Song Xiance were responsible for military farming. He accumulated a lot of food and grass in the past three years.

The Xianbei people may have targeted their population and food.

"The Xianbei people are coming!"

"Open the city gate, the general is going to enter the city!"

"All the generals will gather in the county government!"

Gao Yigong and his group were in a hurry and fled back to Tongwan Town on war horses, alarming the eight thousand defenders in the town.

"Hurry, light the beacon tower!"

"You two risked your life to go to Mizhizhai and inform the King of Chuang that the Tuoba Xianbei went south and asked the King of Chuang to rescue Tongwan Town!"

"The whole town is martial law, all the township soldiers will enter the barracks for training!"

Gao Yigong seemed to be crazy and issued orders one after another to deal with the attacks of the Xianbei people.

The luck of the first year of high school is already good. I discovered the actions of the Xianbei people in advance and had some time to deal with it. Otherwise, it would be too late if the Xianbei cavalry came to the city and reacted.

"The Tuoba Xianbei suddenly went south, and the target may not be just our Tongwan Town, but Mizhizhai."

Gao Yigong came to the city wall and looked out to the north with a group of generals, sweat soaked in the lining.

Many soldiers from the Zhongzhen Camp came to the city to defend, extremely nervous.

On the grassland, tribes that attacked each other and survived in three years, Mongolia, Rouran, Turkic, Xianbei, and Xiongnu, did not have a simple product. The Tuoba Xianbei tribe is equivalent to a small kingdom.

At this time, the Tuoba tribe headed south in large numbers. If their town was captured, the soldiers in the entire camp might all become slaves to the Xianbei tribe.

The beacon tower in Tongwan Town rose, and the peaks along the way lit the billowing black smoke to remind the defenders in all places.

Li Zicheng built cities such as Tongwan Town, Shenmu Village, Mizhi Village, etc., with more than 100,000 troops, which is not an easy role to deal with.

"The Dashun Army has discovered our whereabouts."

"You besiege Tongwan Town and Shenmu Village, and I personally lead the cavalry to attack Mizhi Village."

When Tuoba Tao saw the beacon towers on the northern defense line of the Dashun Army, he knew that 100,000 cavalry would have alarmed the defenders, so he immediately divided his troops into three groups, two of which were responsible for restraining the Dashun Army in the north. Tuoba Tao led the cavalry to bypass these strong cities and take the Mizhi Village directly.

Tuoba Tao is good at using cavalry and pays attention to the speed of troops. He tries to bypass the city that cannot be captured in a short period of time.

The fierce general Yang Dayan ran all the way. As the first general of the 100,000 Tuoba Xianbei cavalry, he broke into six Muzhai who were blocking the way!

boom!

Yang Dayan rode an iron armored war horse and forced the wooden fence of the wooden village to break into the wall, and the broken wooden boards splashed!

The Dashun Army in Muzhai looked up at the iron-armored general who broke into the village in horror.

Yang Dayan was simply an iron beast. He used weapons to destroy the fence that formed the barrier of the wooden village, and directly broke through the wall and was invincible!

This is a warrior who recorded in history that he captured a tiger alive!

"Die!"

Yang Dayan waved his horse spear, and a row of Dashun soldiers were killed by Yang Dayan, and blood splattered on the spot!

Behind Yang Dayan, a team of iron cavalry equipped with golden swords and iron horses followed the gap that Yang Dayan broke through, and drove straight into the Dashun army in the wooden village wantonly!

The low-level Dashun soldiers were unable to break through the heavy armor equipped with iron cavalry and were unilaterally slaughtered.

In less than half an hour, the entire Muzhai fell, and six or seven out of ten Dashun Army in the Muzhai were killed and injured. The rest of the people fled to the mountains and did not dare to face the most powerful general of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

Yang Dayan quickly opened the way in front, while Tuoba Tao's main cavalry force followed Yang Dayan and marched quickly.

In the north of Li Zicheng's territory, smoke was everywhere, and defenders from all over the country rushed to the main city of Mizhizhai.

Asking for help came in a flood, everyone told Li Zicheng how terrible the Xianbei people were. There were many people and powerful people. If Li Zicheng did not send troops to rescue them, then these villages would not be able to stay for long.

The martial law was imposed in Mizhi Village, and the King of Rebellion Li Zicheng ordered all the troops of the 36th Battalion to be on guard and obey the order of adjustment.

"King, the Zhongzhen Camp has all gathered and can be mobilized at any time except for the troops used by Gao Yigong to guard the north."

Gao Guiying led the generals of the Zhongzhen Camp to meet Li Zicheng.

"My wife, you stay in Mizhizhai, and I personally lead the old camp to go north to resist the Xianbei people."

Li Zicheng knew that the situation was critical and had to rely on the advantage of the territory to prevent the Xianbei army from besieging Mizhizhai.

In any case, fighting with the Tuoba Xianbei tribe is a dangerous thing.

If the Tuoba Xianbei attacked Mizhizhai, if it was accidentally captured, the powerful Li Zicheng's power might be destroyed.

"I want to fight against the Xianbei people with the king. Only the king goes there, I'm not at ease."

Gao Guiying had no confidence in Li Zicheng facing the tribe outside the pass.

You should know that Li Zicheng was defeated by Wu Sangui and Dorgon in the battle of Shanhaiguan, and lost his country and led to his defeat.

The main general of the Tuoba Xianbei cavalry who went south this time was Tuoba Tao, the Emperor Taiwu of the Northern Wei Dynasty. His abilities were only stronger than Dorgon.

Li Zicheng's rough big hands touched Gao Guiying's smooth face, and it was rare to express his tenderness: "Standarding Mizhizhai is the greatest help to me. This time, I will not repeat the same mistake."

"Well, I will guard the village."

Gao Guiying was a man of men. At this time, he led the Zhongzhen Camp to guard the main city for Li Zicheng.

"Let me go and learn about Tuoba Tao's skills!"

Li Zicheng was tenacious and unyielding, and even if the other party was Emperor Wu, he would still compete with him.

The mountainous gullies and terrain near Mizhizhai, the Xianbei cavalry could not be fully deployed, and Li Zicheng had a complete chance of winning.

The troops of the 36th battalion of the Dashun Army were mobilized, and the generals of each battalion were dispatched, and the troops were in chaos.
