Lianshan camp covers an area of about 1,000 acres, is located in the wilderness in the northwest of Lianshan Town, is a standard square structure, surrounded by the camp fence, there are at least 2,000 big tents in the camp fence, but early in the morning, tens of thousands of troops quickly went south, the departure of the main army makes this 50,000 people camp seem a little deserted, there are only thousands of defenders inside.

A dozen spies sent by Gao Shida repeatedly confirmed that the main force of the Qingzhou Army had moved south and that there were only a few thousand people left in the barracks, so they sent a pigeon letter to Nanpi County.

The other cavalry that monitored the southward movement of the Qingzhou army lost the target they were tracking, and the ten cavalrymen rushed south along the official road, but they never found any trace of the southward movement of the army, and did not even find any traces of the army's walking.

This cavalry spy finally had doubts, didn't the main force of the Sui army go south?

When the ten cavalry spies passed through a forest, hundreds of Sui cavalry suddenly rushed out of the woods and surrounded the ten spies

The 50,000 army led by Gao Shida went all the way south, and Gao Shida had received information from spies near the Sui army camp in Lianshan, and tens of thousands of main forces of the Sui army had gone south, and a cavalry spy followed the south to investigate the news, but there was no news yet.

Gao Shida was very excited by this information, and he ordered to speed up the march and make sure to kill the Sui army camp in Lianshan before dawn.

On the wide and flat official road, the black pressure army is boundless, rushing all the way to the south under the cover of night, it is already the fourth watch, they are still more than ten miles away from the Sui army's Lianshan camp, at this time, the former army general Wang Man whispered to Gao Shida: "The team is too long, once it is ambushed, I am worried that the army will be chaotic." ”

Gao Shida glanced back at the mighty army behind him, of course he had considered this question, if it was a small attack. It won't make a difference, but if it's a large-scale attack, then the situation is serious, and it's a major error in their judgment, but is that happening?

Gao Shida has always been determined that the Sui army has gone south, but at this time, he suddenly felt a trace of uneasiness in his heart. What if you really misjudge?

Thinking of this, he decided to slow down the pace of the assault, not necessarily to attack the Sui army camp at night, if the Sui army camp really only had a few thousand people, then the same would be the day attack.

"Order the whole army, stop the march for the time being, and the army will gather in formation!"

The order came down, and the army of 50,000 gradually stopped marching, but at this moment. The rear army and the Chinese army suddenly commotioned, and people kept shouting in horror, causing the soldiers in front to look back, and Gao Shida was furious, "What's wrong?" ”

More than a dozen soldiers rushed to check the situation, but there was no need to check the situation, and the chaos began to spread rapidly, and there were screams and shouts of killing everywhere. In a panic, the soldiers began to flee into the open area. Gao Shida had realized that something was wrong, and he must have been ambushed.

He hurriedly ordered: "The front army is in a phalanx, and there is no confusion!" ”

At present, it is mainly the chaos between the Chinese army and the rear army, which has not yet affected the 20,000 front army, but the panic is spreading to this side, and Gao Shida immediately decided. After all, the 20,000 front army are veterans who have followed Gao Shida for many years, and they are well-trained, and they also know that they can only protect themselves by forming a formation. An army of 20,000 began to form rapidly.

At this moment, he was in flames at the same time, and the two armies attacked one after the other, with about seven or eight thousand people in the rear, led by a young general wearing a silver helmet, holding a gold-backed tiger tooth knife, like a sharp spear, leading the Sui army into the army that had not yet completed the formation.

And under the banner in front of him is a general wearing a golden helmet, wearing a golden helmet, wearing chain mail, a two-wheeled purple yang halberd in his hand, and a treasure flame beast under his crotch, majestic, it is the famous general Zhang Xuan of the Great Sui.

Zhang Xuan stared coldly at Gao Shida, who was dozens of steps away, and laughed: "General Gao, are you willing to fight with me?" ”

Gao Shida was so frightened that his soul was scattered, the war horse retreated again and again, Zhang Xuan was waiting for him here, and the general trend was gone.

At this time, Wang Man, the general beside him, roared angrily, "The king Hugh should panic, see a certain family take his head!" ”

He rushed forward with a steel fork in his hand, and with a swing of the steel fork, he stabbed Zhang Xuan fiercely, shouting: "The thief will take his life!" ”

Gao Shida didn't expect that there would be a substitute for the dead ghost, and while he blocked Zhang Xuan for himself, Gao Shida turned his horse and galloped towards the back.

Zhang Xuan sneered, the halberd pressed the steel fork, and as soon as the force sank, the steel fork was as if it was pressed by the mountain, and it couldn't move at all, Wang Man realized that something was wrong this time, and asked in horror: "Who are you?" ”

Zhang Xuan looked up to the sky and laughed, "Let you die to understand, I am Zhang Xuan!" ”

Wang Man was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder were split, but it was too late, the tip of the halberd had pierced his chest, picked him up, and threw him out more than ten zhang away, Wang Man was killed on the spot, but he didn't blink to death, his head was cut off by the soldiers, and his eyes were still staring in horror.

Zhang Xuan found that Gao Shida had disappeared, he scolded secretly, turned around and shouted: "Kill it!" ”

10,000 soldiers followed him into the thief army, this battle killed the corpses of the thieves all over the field, the blood flowed like a river, the thieves surrendered countless, until dawn, the war finally gradually ended, Zhang Xuan with 25,000 troops completely defeated Gao Shida's 50,000 troops, but to everyone's regret, the corpses and surrendered soldiers were searched, but there was no trace of the thief leader Gao Shida.

This is a great opportunity to kill Gao Shida, but Gao Shida slipped away like a rabbit, at noon, Gao Shida led thousands of remnants of the army to flee back to Nanpi County, there are still 30,000 troops in Nanpi County, if Liu Kaiyun's 30,000 troops can be withdrawn in time, then he still has 50,000 or 60,000 troops in his hands, and he can barely hold Nanpi County.

At this time, Gao Shida had completely abandoned the principle of independence, and sent someone to rush to Hejian County with his son, willing to surrender to the Bohai Society with his son as a hostage, and implore the Bohai Society to come to his rescue, at this time his last glimmer of hope.

The defeated army began to flee back to Nanpi one after another, they brought desperate news, the 30,000 army led by Liu Kaiyun failed to rescue the cavalry, and also encountered the Sui cavalry and the 10,000 army led by Wei Chigong, Liu Kaiyun died under Pei Xingyan's sledgehammer, most of the 30,000 troops surrendered, and only a few thousand escaped.

At this time, the 10,000 forwards of the Sui army have arrived about five miles away from Nanpi County, standing on the head of the city, you can clearly see the banner of the Sui army in the distance, Gao Shida's mood is extremely low, he sighed lowly, and said to the deputy general Sun Lianhuan: "Although I was born in the Bohai Gao clan, I have always looked down on the literati, thinking that they are on paper, so there is no military advisor under him, and now he has finally tasted the bitter fruit, and Zhang Xuandou strategy, we are too far away, everything is in the calculations of others." ”

Sun Lianhuan showed a look of shame on his face, and he persuaded in a low voice: "Now that the defeated troops have fled back to nearly 10,000 people one after another, plus our 30,000 defenders, there are 40,000 troops defending the city, if Bohai will be willing to come to rescue us, I still have a chance." ”

Gao Shida sneered, Gao Lie is not much better than Zhang Xuan, a wolf and a tiger, he sighed, turned around and went down to the city.

As night fell again, the 50,000 Qingzhou army had surrounded Nanpi County, and their material fleet also arrived at the Yongji Canal, the closest to Nanpi County, and sent grain and grass and siege equipment to the Sui army camp along a small river.

The army marched north, and the soldiers only carried ten days of dry rations, which created conditions for Xu Shiji to implement his plan.

10,000 Qingzhou troops were stationed outside each of the four gates of Nanpi County, led by Luo Shixin, Wei Chigong, Pei Xingyan and Su Dingfang, and Xu Shiji still led his army to besiege Gao Shida's 4,000 cavalry in the southern valley and force them to surrender.

Under the cover of night, the lights in the four Qingzhou military camps outside the city were brilliant, and the main camp in the distance was full of people, and a large number of craftsmen were busy installing siege equipment.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Zhang Xuan said slowly to the generals and civil officials under his hand: "I just got the news, Dou Jiande's army was ambushed by the Bohai Society army in Raoyang, Dou Jiande's army was defeated, and the 80,000 army only fled back to less than one percent, Gao Lie has successfully annexed Dou Jiande's main army, I estimate that Gao Shida has surrendered to the Bohai Society, if Gao Lie leads the army to rescue Nanpi, even if we defeat the enemy army, it will be a miserable victory, this is not the result I want to see." ”

Zhang Xuan took a few steps with his hands in his hand, turned around and said coldly: "So I ask that you must capture Nanpi tomorrow, pass my order down, the first one to attack the city gate or climb the head of Nanpi City, the reward is 1,000 taels, the official is promoted to two levels, and the person who catches or kills Gao Shida will be rewarded with a bounty of 5,000 taels, and the official will be promoted to three levels, and the siege will begin tomorrow morning!" ”
