Chapter 216: Battle of the North II
Last night's Luoyang City was too chaotic, plus the night was shrouded and covered by night rain, some landmarks in the city could not be found, and there was no sense of direction at all.
So......
Although they broke through Luoshui, they still got lost in Luoyang City in the end, turning around and never getting out.
In the end, I had to wait until after dawn to regain my sense of direction.
But it was too late.
No one expected that He Jin would lose too quickly.
He Jin held the Northern Army, and Yuan Shao and Cao Cao's Xiyuan elite soldiers assisted, but they were defeated by Yuan Feng and Lu Zhi and others to put together a group of rabble, which made many people in Luoyang feel disappointed.
Before they left the city, the chaos in the city was quelled by Yuan Feng and Lu Zhi.
So they can only be blocked here.
It's not in, it's not.
"Why don't you go south?" Huang Zhong stood beside him with a straight body and said in a deep voice.
"To the south?"
Mu Jing shook his head: "It takes too long, the longer the time, the more variables, the more unsafe the city will be, this idea is unrealistic!" ”
"Rush through!"
Xi Zhicai suddenly said: "Behind Yong'an Palace is the Valley Gate, the Valley Gate is directly facing the north, there are reinforcements in the north, this is the point, without reinforcements, rushing out is death, after all, under the pursuit, you can't escape far!" ”
"Shizi, it's not good, there's a big army outside that surrounds this place!" At this time, a Jingping scout hurriedly reported: "The entire Fang City is full of soldiers and horses, there are several encirclements before and after, and all the ways out are blocked!" ”
"What?"
When Mu Jing heard this, his pupils changed slightly: "Why did they come too fast!" ”
He was ready to be encircled and suppressed.
After all, once Yuan Feng knew that he was not in the city, he would inevitably be hunted down.
But he didn't expect it to come so quickly.
This surprised him, is the efficiency of the soldiers and horses in Luoyang City so high?
"Luoyang City is not big, and it is not small when it is small!"
Xi Zhicai's thoughts turned quickly, and said: "Although Yuan Sikong and Lu Taiwei control Luoyang, but appeasing the hundred officials, stabilizing the court, arranging the city wall, dealing with He Jin in the west, and pursuing the ten permanent servants in the north, it has already made his troops very tight, even if he finds out that the prince wants to escape from Luoyang, it is impossible to look for it with great fanfare, unless he ......"
"Unless my father's deeds are revealed!" Mu Jing took his words.
"The Marquis of Western Hubei Xingbing Qinwang, tens of thousands of troops came with great fanfare, even if they advanced quickly, all the way north day and night, so that the imperial court could not react, but as long as they entered the land of Guanzhong, it was equal to the important land of Gyeonggi, and it was inevitable that their deeds would be exposed!" Xi Zhicai said.
"But at this time, it makes our situation even more difficult!"
Mu Jing smiled bitterly.
"Sooner rather than later!" Xi Zhicai said decisively: "Before they have completed the encirclement, they must rush out!" ”
"Hmm!"
Mu Jing is also a person who decides on the battlefield.
The two of them spread out a map of Luoyang City Street.
"We only have two hundred and twenty soldiers now, and we can't break through!" Xi Zhicai said.
"What do you want?" Mu Jing asked.
"Blooming on all sides!"
"Flowers on all sides?"
"This is the city of Luoyang, surrounded by houses, the streets are connected on all sides, in the terrain, it is not suitable for large-scale battles, and it has become our only chance, we can divide our troops everywhere, under the illusion of feints, take advantage of their reactions, gather the main force, and storm Yong'an Palace!"
Xi Zhicai talked eloquently, even if this was only his first time making military advice, but it seemed that he was born to belong to the battlefield, the battlefield was like him, the chessboard was just a chessboard, and the troops were arranged, like chess.
"Good!"
Mu Jing thought about it, and he decided to trust Xi Zhicai, not only trusting him not to betray himself, but also trusting his talent.
"Huo Shao!"
"In!"
"You lead Fifty Erlang, go south, take Zhenghua Street, pass through this street, defeat the pass soldiers guarding here, and then detour to the east, go directly north, and gather at Yong'an Gate!"
"Yes!"
Huo Shao took the order.
Mu Jing continued to arrange the task: "Uncle Zhong, I will give you one hundred and twenty sons, all of them are elite, break through from the street in front of us, break through and don't go west, to the west is the North Palace, the North Palace is heavily guarded, we can't rush out, you immediately turn around, go north, and impact Yong'an Gate!" ”
Yong'an Gate, the main gate of Yong'an Palace.
Yong'an Palace is just a companion palace, it is a flank of the North Palace, not a palace city, it can only be regarded as a palace, if you want to rush over, you don't need to attack the city wall, as long as you take the Gongwan gate that is not more than one or two feet high.
"Yes!"
Huang Zhong's pupils shone with a light as cold as a knife.
"The rest of the sons and daughters will all go with me!" Mu Jing pointed to the Upper East Gate: "Let's go to the Upper East Gate for a walk!" ”
"No!"
The generals commanded.
……
……
Buhe inside and outside, a wide main street, a queue of soldiers and horses walked towards the inside.
"Report!"
"Say!"
The commander of the Praetorian Guard, Huangfu Lian, rode his horse and stared ahead.
The Praetorian Guards, who originally wanted to rest, immediately went south after receiving the military order.
A few hundred people, in his opinion, are just hand-to-hand.
"General, the Buheli in front of you has been heavily surrounded by our soldiers, and under the scouts, Mu Jing and his party are about two or three hundred people!" The scout marquis came to report.
"Got it!"
Huangfu nodded and said, "Immediately pass the order, enter the palace after a quarter of an hour, everyone can be killed, but the prince of Xi'e cannot be killed!" ”
"No!"
The soldiers went to receive orders.
"Brother Huangfu, are you sure?" Wei Qu rode his horse beside him, and said in a deep voice: "Lord Sikong has given a death order, no matter the cost, you must also catch Mu Jing, otherwise you will not transfer your soldiers and horses out!" ”
"Brother Wei, you also think too highly of this Xi'e prince, he only has hundreds of people in his hands, since his whereabouts have been revealed, in this Luoyang City, he is difficult to fly!"
Huangfu Lian said confidently: "I am a guard, although I am only guarding the South Palace, but they are all elite sons and daughters in Guanzhong, and this battle will be won!" ”
"Report!" Soon another scout arrived.
"Say!"
"Report to the general, the enemy seems to be starting to break through!"
"Which way did they break through?"
"It's like ......"
"Seems like what?"
"Report to the general, it seems that they have divided their troops to break through the siege, and they have broken out from all directions!"
"Huh!"
When Huangfu heard this, he sneered: "There are only hundreds of remnants, and they dare to divide their troops, they don't know whether they are alive or dead!" ”
"Brother Huangfu, the prince of Xi'e has always been insidious and cunning, the people of my family have suffered a lot from it, he suddenly divided his troops, he must have a plan, you better be careful!" Wei Qu said.
"Brother Wei thinks too highly of this kid, but it's just a little boy, look at how I catch him!" Huangfu Lian said confidently.
……
……
"Sons, today we have no way to escape, only to fight!"
Huang Zhong held a sword in his hand, and led one hundred and twenty elite Jingping soldiers to kill from the main street: "Kill!" ”
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
Jingping's soldiers were strong and rushed out with Huang Zhong.
Although this street is wide, it is a street in the city after all, and above the width is just a vertical and horizontal charging terrain, with dozens of soldiers in front and dozens of soldiers in the flanks and back, forming a charging battle array.
"Archer!"
Blocking here is the first battalion of the Praetorian Guard under the command of Huangfu Company, the captain surnamed Tong, is a strong man in his thirties, and he shouted.
"In!"
"Shoot!"
"Woohoo!"
Dozens of archers shoot arrows and snipe.
"Broken!"
Huang Zhong was like a wolf and a tiger, charging forward, a war knife in his hand, dancing impermeable, and one arrow after another was knocked down from the void by him.
"Ahh
"Flutter!"
"Boom!"
But under the momentum of several rounds of bows and arrows, Jingping soldiers still fell a lot.
"Come and don't be rude!" Huang Zhong glanced around, and immediately became furious, pulled out the longbow on his back with his backhand, bent the bow and pulled the arrow, and shot an arrow.
"Whew!"
The long arrow broke through the air, like a meteor lightning, and submerged into the front military formation.
Click!
This is the sound of a bow and arrow piercing the body.
Captain Tong subconsciously lowered his head, only to see that the battle armor had already pierced a hole, and the blood was slowly flowing out.
"I got an arrow?" It was his last thought, and he fell straight off his horse, his eyes wide until he died.
"Captain?"
"The captain is dead?"
"Lord Captain is dead in battle!"
“……”
The soldiers of the 1st Battalion of the Praetorian Guard were completely panicked.
"Kill it!" Huang Zhong took the lead, like a wolf like a flock of sheep, invincible, with a war knife in his hand, bringing up bursts of blood.
"Kill it!"
"Kill it!"
Jingping soldiers were originally brave soldiers, and they were infected by Huang Zhong's bravery, and suddenly burst out with an unparalleled momentum in the world, charging invincible.
On a street in the distance, the Praetorian Guard's commander, Huangfu Lian, was patiently waiting for the battle report.
"Report!" The scouts came in a panic.
"Say!"
"General, the enemy has broken through the main street and is heading towards our main camp."
"What about the first battalion?"
"Captain Tong has been killed in battle, and the first battalion has completely collapsed and collapsed!"
"How is that possible?" Huangfu Lian couldn't believe it: "They are only about 100 people, and my first battalion is ten times stronger, so I can't stop them?" ”
Although this incident had some impact on his thinking, as a battlefield general, his reaction was still very timely, and he hurriedly ordered: "All sons, prepare to meet the enemy!" ”
But just as he was gathering his troops and horses to prepare for a bloody battle, there was no trace of the enemy in front of him.
Soon the scout reported again: "General, the enemy army is heading north, in the direction of Yong'an Palace!" ”
"Yong'an Palace?"
"Report!" Another battle report returned: "General, the enemy troops in the southern street have not been able to break through the formation of our janissaries, and have been forced to retreat and go north"
The scouts from the east of the "report" also came to report: "Report to the general, the enemy army stopped at the east gate and turned north!" ”
"It turns out that they want to break through the valley gate from Yong'an Palace to the north and enter the north!" Huangfu even sneered: "Wishful thinking! ”
Although his main force went south to besiege, he was cautious and had a battalion in Yong'an Palace, which was enough to block them.
"Order, Praetorian Guard, pursue north!"
