Chapter 765: Lore
Wang Xuan should be greeted by 100,000 soldiers and horses, and the distance was only 20 miles away from the village, and Chen Kefu of course quickly learned the news.
In the Hebei Army Battalion in Luokou, Jiushan, Chen Kefu convened the generals and colonels of each battalion and held a pre-war military meeting.
Feng Wan spoke first: "The king is out of the nest, with as many as 100,000 soldiers and horses, and his Luokou camp must be empty at this time. Please select 20,000 elites to attack the county seat of Luokou Gongxian County, and fly to the two marshals Li Jing and Zhang Zhongjian of Luokou Cangcheng, and order them to go out of the city to rob Wang Xuanying Luokou camp. In this way, Wang Xuanying is very likely to return to Shiluokou, he retreats, and I enter; If he advances, our 20,000-strong army will take advantage of the situation to eat the Gongxian and Luokou camps in his rear, and completely seize his grain and grass logistics. Then from the rear to Wang Xuanying's army outflanked, when we are flanked on both sides, the rebels will be defeated. The art of war says, 'He returns to me, he returns to me, and I am tired'"
After hearing this, Chen Kefu nodded and said with a smile: "What Miss Feng said is very true, but although we now have 50,000 soldiers and horses, most of them are newly reorganized troops, and it is difficult to fight. This king thinks that we should still stick to the mountains and stick to it. Wait for the two marshals Li Jing and Zhang Zhongjian to copy the back road, and first take Gongxian and Luokou Camp as the top. The purpose of our trip is the Eastern Capital Army of the Yan Division, and now that this task has been completed, we have successfully advanced our soldiers and horses to Luokou, squeezing Wang Xuanying and them in the small space of the Black Stone Plain. was surrounded before and after, and there was no foreign aid, and within ten days, Wang Xuan should be finished. ”
However, Chen Kefu's words made Huangfu Wuyi, the former commander of the Eastern Capital Army, unhappy. Chen Kefu's division killed hundreds of generals of the Eastern Capital Army at once, and pushed out 5,000 of them to make an example of chickens and monkeys. It really shocked the Eastern Capital Army.
Subsequently, Chen Kefu reorganized the 30,000 Eastern Capital Army, and selected 30,000 of the nearly 40,000 Eastern Capital Army, and the rest were organized as military and civilian husbands. The 30,000 Eastern Capital Army was all disrupted again, and mixed with the 10,000 Eastern Capital Army brought from Luoyang. A large number of non-commissioned officers were transferred from the 10,000 Hebei Army to the 40,000 Eastern Capital Army as middle and low-level officers.
In this way, although it looks a little presentable, Chen Kefu is still not very worried about them. It's just that in the current wartime, I don't worry about leaving these people behind, so I just take them with me, and I can count them.
Huangfu Wuyi and other former generals of the Eastern Capital Army are still holding their original positions at present, but Chen Kefu has also assigned them adjutants. The position is not high, but the power is great. This made these people a little unhappy in their hearts, and at this time, when they heard that Chen Kefu looked down on them, they immediately stood up and objected: "The strength of the rebels is limited. and has suffered repeated setbacks, and has long been frightened. There is a cloud in the art of war: 'If you exceed twice the enemy's strength, you can attack', and more than double! ”
Chen Kefu smiled: "There are 100,000 rebels, and we only have 50,000. It's them who outnumber us by more than twice as much. According to your idea, the rebels should take the initiative to attack us. ”
Huangfu Wuyi refused to give up, and now although he is anyway again, because of what happened last time. still made him worry that Chen Kefu would settle accounts after the autumn. At the moment, he urgently needed an opportunity to make meritorious contributions to prove his loyalty to Chen Kefu.
At the moment, he said: "Although the rebels are 100,000. But the rebels have always been a rabble, and our soldiers can be the three. Moreover, there were two marshals Li and Zhang not far behind the rebels. The lowly position is willing to ask for an order, and lead 20,000 soldiers and horses to take the lead and attack the rebel Blackstone camp! ”
As soon as Huangfu Wuyi's words fell, the noble-born generals of the Eastern Capital Army fell to their knees, and all of them claimed in an impassioned tone that they would go to war to prove their loyalty.
To be honest, Chen Kefu was more inclined to his previous plan, because this plan was more stable. He took the initiative to attack at such a big risk before, for the tens of thousands of Dongdu troops of the Yan Division. Now that the Eastern Capital Army has taken the Yan Division, it is equivalent to encircling the rebels. At this time, as long as you wait patiently, you can trap the rebels. …,
No matter how adventurous it is, there is no need to do so.
Just when Chen Kefu was about to reject their request, Feng Wan suddenly spoke again, meaning that he also agreed with Huangfu Wuyi's request. At the end, she also sent Chen Kefu a secret autumn wave. Chen Kefu thought about it for a while, and also understood what Feng Wan meant.
Although the rebels were said to have been defeated repeatedly, they were completely formed by the combination of a group of defeated troops that were defeated by the Hebei army. But this rebel army can't be underestimated, Li Mi and Wang Xuanying are both heroes, and their subordinates Shan Xiongxin, Xu Shiji, Wang Bodang, Liu Heimin, Xu Yuanlang, Wang Bian, Chen Zhiluo and other generals, if you really want to talk about it, they can all be regarded as first-class generals in this era.
These people are already strong, but now they have been forced into the Jedi, and I am afraid that they will be even more fierce. It's not that Chen Pojun looks down on the Eastern Capital Army, it's that the elite of the Praetorian Guard went to Hedong with him early, and he never came back in the end. Most of the rest are old soldiers, and the officers and colonels are also the children of nobles. Put on a good armor to make a show, fight and cooperate, and fight with the wind. But if they fight in a weak situation, these people will have no sustained combat effectiveness.
Feng Wan spoke out in support of Huangfu Wuyi at this time, clearly wanting to trap these people and plan to send them to death.
Chen Kefu thought about it, these people in the Eastern Capital Army were rebellious and impermanent, and he really didn't have a good impression. If you let them go at this time, you can let them go to find out the situation and fight the vanguard. Even if it is completely wiped out, it can consume some of the rebels' slashing strength. By the way, I can also borrow the hands of the rebels to deal with this old soldier who has not looked good at the wall.
"Good!" Thinking about all this clearly, Chen Kefu happily agreed to Huangfu Wuyi's request: "Since everyone is so eager to fight, then the king will also give you a chance to make meritorious service and atone for your sins." General Huangfu, this king will give you 20,000 soldiers and horses, and you will be the vanguard. General Luo Shixin and Cheng Yanjin led 20,000 people to arrive, and the king led 10,000 soldiers and horses to respond last! ”
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Huangfu Wuyi and other generals of the Eastern Capital were grateful.
At that moment, the battalion ordered the distribution of wine and meat, so that the soldiers had a full meal. At the time of the third watch, Huangfu Wuyi ordered his 20,000 horses, including 18,000 infantry troops and 2,000 horse troops, and rushed towards Heishi Village.
Dozens of miles away, it didn't take long for Huangfu Wuyi to lead the army to arrive. rushed to the front of the wall, but saw that the rebels had built a wooden city, and there were many red and green beast shapes painted on the wooden city, which was extremely hideous. When I saw it in the dark night, it was terrifying.
The originally murderous Eastern Capital Army had already lost eight or nine points in morale at this time, and even those who had the courage had already proposed to withdraw the army. When Huangfu Wuyi was confused in his heart, a former army scout suddenly came to report: "The rebel wooden city has been opened, but there are no lights inside, and there is no one to see, and the special report comes to the marshal to know." ”
Huangfu Wuyi boasted of Haikou in front of Chen Kefu early on, and wanted to win in one fell swoop and defeat the rebels. At this time, because of the fear and panic of his subordinates, he was already irritable in his heart, and suddenly heard the news. Where can you calm down, at the moment with your legs between the belly of the horse, you take the lead, leading the soldiers and horses straight into the rebel camp.
Looking from afar, I saw that the wooden city was wide open, and countless torches were raised together, shining like day, but there was not a single soldier in sight.
The more this is the case, the more annoyed Huangfu Wuyi becomes, and he waved the horse lance in his hand, and shouted to give himself a bold voice: "If you have the courage, come with me!" ”
At this moment, he suddenly heard a trumpet in the rebel camp, and a rebel general led a group of soldiers and horses to kill, but it was Li Mi's subordinate Wang Dangren. Huangfu Wuyi slapped his horse over, the two armies scuffled, and the tearing and killing came quietly, but Wang Dangren waved his long lance, and the horn of withdrawal had already sounded in the rebels.
Wang Dangren led his subordinates out of the battle and was defeated. The emperor had no chance of killing, led his troops to catch up, and after a few miles, he suddenly heard a horn sound, and suddenly countless drums and horns sounded in all directions, only to feel a gust of cold wind blowing and coming to the wind. …,
Huangfu Wuyi came back to his senses coldly, and felt that the situation was a little too much, as if he had fallen for the other party's strategy to lure the enemy. Just as he was about to stop, he saw countless cavalry suddenly struck out of the oblique thorns, and the people were black horses with blue faces and red hair, huge fangs, five-colored long skirts, and heads and sharp horns full of fierce ghosts and demons.
Everyone insisted on machetes, killing from all sides, and when they got closer, a loud roar sounded: "The heavenly soldiers are here, you must surrender quickly!" ”
When the Eastern Capital Army under Huangfu Wuyi saw it, they were all frightened, and the three souls had already lost two souls. No one had ever seen such a scene, and the soul of the early fright in the middle of the night was not possessed. And they were to turn their horses' heads and flee their way back.
Unexpectedly, the two thousand cavalry in front of the Eastern Capital Army, those war horses saw these grimace soldiers, and those evil horses painted with ghosts and gods, they were already panicked and scurried around. The infantry behind the Eastern Capital Army was thrown into chaos, and the infantry behind them had lost their morale in the final battle. At this time, he was rushed by his own cavalry, and he became more and more panicked.
At this moment, suddenly someone shouted from all around: "Defeated, defeated, run away, we are defeated." ”
When the soldiers of the Eastern Capital Army, who were already panicked, heard this voice, they immediately became chaotic. The emperor in front of him was still shouting to kill him, but the one in the middle was rushing left and right, and the one behind was already fleeing backwards.
The 2,000 cavalry scurried around, and the infantry behind them were even more frightened, but the people were crowding people, pushing people, and blindly fleeing towards the way they came.
The defeat was like a mountain, and in the vast darkness of the night, the Eastern Capital Army was completely chaotic. Countless soldiers and horses scattered and fled, and in the blink of an eye, it became a rout.
At this time, the sound of drums and horns on all sides rose again, and in the rumbling war drums, those blue-faced and red-haired ghost soldiers rode out on ghost horses and rushed out, driving towards the fleeing Dongdu Army, stabbing with knives and spears, and constantly harvesting the heads of the Dongdu Army soldiers one after another.
Huangfu Wuyi, under the protection of dozens of guards, rushed left and right, and gradually saw that the general trend had gone, so he had to flee into the night with the rebels, and after escaping for a while, he didn't even know where he was.
Looking at the dozens of horsemen and horses left around him, he couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh: "If there is such a big defeat, what face will I have to go back to see King Chen!" As he spoke, he was about to kill himself, but a group of guards stepped forward to stop him, and finally took his sword down. The group looked around blankly, but they didn't know where to go.
