The Passionate Guns of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 480 Great Defeat of Tang Gaozu

Yang Yong was chasing Li Yuanji with his generals, and another Tang army came head-on. The leading general was about 50 years old. Wearing a rolling dragon battle robe, stepping off a red rabbit horse, hanging the emperor's sword at his waist, and holding a thick-backed machete in his palm, it is Li Yuan, the founder of Datang.

Fight brothers, fight father and son soldiers.Li Yuan was worried about his youngest son, so he led people to come after him. Seeing that his son was defeated by Yang Yong and returned, Li Yuan led thousands of soldiers to block Yang Yong's troops, and the two sides fought at the top of the city.

During the scuffle, Li Yuan met Yang Yong. He knew that he was no match for Yang Yong, but the old and new grudges made him furious. He bit the bullet and swung a big knife to fight Yang Yong, but he couldn't stand it after a while. At this time, Li Yuanji found another suitable lance, and rushed to help, and the father and son fought against Yang Yong.

After twenty or so rounds, the two were no match for Yang Yong, and both were defeated. Yang Yong ignored Li Yuanji, turned his gun on Li Yuan, and chased after him.Yang Yong's horse is fast, and Li Yuan's horse is even more anxious. Because of their special status, their horses are as fast as lightning, and they quickly throw away all their subordinates. The two horses are as smooth as the wind. He rushed down the city on the horse road, Yang Yong was still chasing after him, and the two ran away like a horse racing show in the city.

When Tang Gaozu was chased to the sky and had nowhere to go, Ding Yanping, the general with two guns, arrived with more than [-] troops, stopped Yang Yong's troops and began to fight.

It turned out that Ding Yanping was ordered to take 3 horses to put out the fire in the city and kill the spies who had sneaked into the city. Since there were many fires, he divided the 3 horses into several groups, and led 1 people to the largest fire. .

He was facing Qu Tutong who was rushing to the east gate after setting the fire. Ding Yanping gave an order, and more than 1 Tang soldiers trapped Qu Tutong and more than 1000 people in the middle.Qu Tutong had no choice but to break out of the siege, and the two sides fought in a scuffle.In a hand-to-hand fight, all the more than 1000 people of the rebel army were outnumbered and killed, leaving only one polished commander, Qu Tutong, who was also entangled tightly by Ye Ding Yanping.

After more than forty battles between the two, Ding Yanping was no match, not because Ding Yanping was not good at marksmanship, but because he was old and physically weak. The Tang army soldiers surrounded him, and Qu Tutong made a bloody path to escape.

Ding Yanping led his men to chase after him. At this moment, Ding Yanping learned that Yang Yong broke through the city gate and countless rebels broke into the city. Ding Yanping was shocked and worried about Li Yuan's safety, so he had no intention of chasing and killing Qu Tutong. Yes, come to the rescue with your soldiers.It came at the right time, when Li Yuan was chased to nowhere by Yang Yong, he grasped at straws.

"Your Majesty, don't be alarmed, veterans come to rescue you!" Ding Yanping yelled, more than 1 Tang soldiers blocked Yang Yong and fought, Li Yuan was saved.

Yang Yong was trapped in the army of thousands of horses alone, he had no fear, where the spears and horses passed, there was no general, just like a tiger among a flock of sheep.

At this time, Qu Tutong and Luo Shiying arrived with the rebels, and then Qi Wang Li Yuanji led the Tang army to kill them, and the two sides fought in a scuffle near the east gate.Seeing that Yang Yong's men were unstoppable, Ding Yanping and Li Yuanji feared that Li Yuan would lose, so they did not dare to fight, so they led their men to protect Li Yuan, opened the north gate, and fled.

After running for more than fifty miles in one breath, Tang Jun stopped after seeing that there were no pursuers behind.It was already dawn at this time, and looking at the faces of all the soldiers of the Tang Army, the faces of all the soldiers were red and green, and the mixture of blood, mud and sweat made them look like Huadan singing opera.Looking at his body, he was even more in a state of embarrassment, with his helmet and armor removed, some of his combat boots were lost, his combat robe was torn with big holes and small eyes. There was a burnt smell.The lightly injured soldiers grinned, not to mention the seriously injured. They were either trapped in the city or fell behind halfway.

Counting the number of people, after fighting in the middle of the night, only 4 people remained in front of the [-] Tang army. Li Yuan and his son almost died at the hands of Yang Yong. Li Yuan was ashamed and annoyed, but helpless. This was the worst defeat in his life. , chewed Yang Yong's name several times in his mouth, looked up to the sky and sighed, and retreated to Dingzhou with more than [-] defeated soldiers.

After Li Yuan fled in a hurry, there were still many Tang troops left behind in the city. They had no time to retreat and were still fighting with the rebels.Yang Yong sent an order that those who descended would not die, and the prisoners should be treated preferentially.

These people saw that the general situation was over, and their majesty had run away. If they continued to fight, they would die. So under the yelling of the brave soldiers, they threw away their knives and guns and knelt on the ground as prisoners.

After dawn, Yang Yong's rebel army occupied Hengshui City again.

In this battle, Yang Yong wiped out a total of more than 2 Tang troops, including nearly [-] prisoners, but he also paid a heavy price for the casualties of more than [-] rebels.

At this time, Qu Tutong came to Yang Yong with a face full of shame, got off his horse, knelt down and saluted: "My lord, the general has humiliated his mission. More than 1000 brothers were all killed in battle. Please forgive me."

Yang Yong hurriedly got off his horse and pulled him up with his own hands, "Why did you say that, General? You have made a great contribution in this battle. What is your crime? The soldiers who sacrificed are all heroes, and they died well. Without the three thousand soldiers like you and Yingzi As an internal response in the city, it is impossible for this king to capture Hengshui, and it is impossible for me to defeat Li Yuan's 10 troops, come on, and give General Qu Tu a special credit."

Qu Tutong was so grateful that tears welled up in his eyes. At this time, Luo Shiying didn't care about the broad daylight and watched everyone. He threw himself into Yang Yong's arms, shrugged his shoulders, and sobbed: "My lord, the women's battalion is gone... there are only a few dozen of the more than 1000 sisters left... ...The concubine almost couldn't see the prince..."

Yang Yong patted his shoulder to comfort him, "Yingzi doesn't cry, the sisters who died are the leaders of the women. They died with honor, and their immortal military exploits will be remembered by the king and the soldiers of the rebel army forever. The king will definitely bury these soldiers. They built tombs and erected monuments, and doubled their care for their families. This king also promised you that after this battle, the women's personal guard camp will be rebuilt. I will select as many as you want, and everything is up to you, how about it? "Luo Shiying laughed through his tears.

In the early morning, the ancient city of Hengshui was baptized by the flames of war again, and it looked more and more desolate in the morning wind.The extinguished fire is still smoking, the city wall looks like it has been washed with blood, and the broken flags are whistling in the morning wind. Inside and outside the city, there are corpses lying vertically and vertically everywhere, piled up like a mountain, bleeding It became a river, and even the moat outside the city changed color.

Yang Yong didn't care about the fatigue of the half-night battle, so he quickly ordered his soldiers to treat the wounded, clean up the battlefield, and then reorganize the prisoners. More than 1 Tang troops have been reorganized into the fighting power of the rebel army, and the growth and decline are balanced. Therefore, after this battle, the total number of Yang Yong's 3 horses has not changed much.In order to motivate the soldiers and reward them according to merit, Yang Yong does not have to do all these trivial matters himself, but he has to arrange some things.In this way, I have been busy until dark.

After dinner, except for the soldiers guarding the city and patrolling the city, the soldiers of the rebel army were already exhausted, and soon fell asleep.Yang Yong was also very tired, but he was a little excited sitting in the tent.This battle was independently designed and deployed by myself. Although the casualties were heavy and there were dangers, but after all, they defeated the famous Li Yuan with less.From this point of view, both myself and civil and military have two skills!

Yang Yong was in shock when a beautiful shadow flashed at the door, and Luo Shiying, who had removed his military uniform and evening make-up, came gracefully...
