The Passionate Guns of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 83
Among the four northern counties under the jurisdiction of Tongzhou, Dingshui County in the northwest is the closest to Jincheng County.Duan Yu, the prefect of Dingshui County, did not dare to be negligent after receiving the official document from Tongzhou Prefecture. He ordered [-] elite soldiers, including [-] cavalry. The other four soldiers and horses have not left yet.

Duan Gui was so overjoyed that he didn't pay attention to Jincheng Xiaojun and these rebels at all. He only knew Duan Gui in his heart, but he didn't know that there were Yang Yong and Xue's father and son. Soldiers fight against the enemy.

The subordinate staff saluted and advised: "Master County Guard, our army has just arrived, and we are fighting alone. It is not too late to wait for all the troops to arrive before starting the battle."

Duan Gui couldn't listen to it, and curled his mouth and said: "Danwan Town, and the five-way soldiers and horses are making a big fuss! Wouldn't it be nice to wait for the county to take it directly, take the rebels, and give it to the governor directly? Is it my Duan Gui's style to sit and wait like this? The army scolds the enemy! If they dare not fight, they will forcibly attack the city!"

The soldiers agreed and scolded him in the city.Without cursing, the gate of the city was opened wide, Xue Ju led his two sons and led a thousand soldiers out of the city to form an array, and the two sides set up a battlefield.

It turned out that Duan Gui's soldiers and horses were fifty miles away, and they were rewarded in the city.

Yang Yong hurriedly called all the generals to discuss the strategy to meet the enemy.Xue Ju showed Li Shili and said: "My lord, I know Duan Yu. He is arrogant and conceited. To be honest, the general has long wanted to take his Dingshui. Taking Dingshui can echo Jincheng from afar. I didn't expect him to take it today." Delivered to the door."

Yang Yong was overjoyed: "Oh? What clever plan does General Xue have, why don't you tell me about it in detail?"

After Duan Yu's soldiers arrive, they will definitely scold the battle. The last general will lead a thousand newly recruited soldiers to face the battle. After a few battles, they will pretend to be defeated and flee. Duan Yu is eager to win and must command the army to chase. After Duan Gui's men and horses entered the city, they rushed out suddenly, and the Sui soldiers would be defeated. After eating Duan Gui's soldiers, we marched westward. "

Yang Yong was both surprised and delighted when he heard this, and repeatedly praised the clever plan, thinking that this Xue Ju is really resourceful, and I should learn from him.

Sure enough, as Xue Ju expected, Duan Yu went to the city to scold the battle, Yang Yong divided his troops according to Xue Ju's plan, and sent generals to ambush [-] soldiers and horses at the west gate, and there were [-] archers alone. Except for a thousand soldiers guarding the gates of the other three cities, Yong arranged all the rest at the gate of the west city.

Xue Ju took his two sons and led [-] newly recruited soldiers, and after leaving the city, he lined up with Duan Gui's [-] elite soldiers.These thousand recruits are ordinary people who have just been recruited for a few days. They haven't trained much yet. They don't need to perform much to look like rookies. Their clothes are not uniform. Tall, short, fat and thin, uneven.

Look at Duan Gui's 5000 troops on the opposite side, no matter if they are cavalry or infantry, they are like chopping with knives and axes, each of them is wearing strong and sharp armor, with layers of armor, under the sun, the eyes are eye-catching, as if they are soldiers. generally.

Duan Gui glanced at the opponent's general, then at his own, and couldn't help being happy, thinking that such a mob can still fight?No need to ask, they are in a hurry to recruit troops, and they just scratch their heads. Even so, the ones they pull out should be better, and those guarding the city must be old, weak, sick and disabled.

Duan Gui was happy, and his general Ding Tulang asked for orders to fight, Duan Gui nodded.

Ding Tulang is also a fierce general, he dismounts from his horse, and with a sword in his palm, he is the champion of all armies.Here Xue Ju sent his second son, Xue Renyue, to fight. The two sides exchanged names and killed each other.

"General Sui will stop hurting my younger brother!" Xue Renguo yelled, and Pegasus came to help. The two brothers beat Ding Tulang alone, and the three generals were killed together. Ding Tulang became more and more courageous in the battle. .

"The Sui general will stop hurting my son, the old man is here!" Xue Ju smashed his horse and swung his halberd, preparing for the third battle against Ding Tulang.

Duan Gui, who was watching the battle, was almost annoyed: "It is said that the Xue family father and son are brave, but today it is completely a rumor. The three of you beat each other? Bullying that there is no general in our army?"

"At the end of the day, the general will fight against Xue Ju!" Just as Duan Gui finished speaking, a general beside him asked for orders.

Duan Gui saw that it was General Yuan Gonglu, nodded and said, "Only win, not lose!"

"Decree!" Yuan Gonggong used thirteen-section leopard-tailed whips in his hand, and after finishing speaking, he smashed the horse and swung the whip to stop Xue Ju, and the five generals were killed into two groups.

After five or six rounds, Yuan Gonglu threw a whip, Xue Ju hurriedly raised his halberd to parry, but the whip was a soft but hard weapon, and when it bent, it hit Xue Ju's head, his helmet was swept off, and his hair was fluffy. Xue Ju was frightened out of his wits, and he was defeated when he pulled his horse.

Yuan Gonglu raised his whip and chased after him.Here Xue Renguo and Xue Renyue were defeated by Ding Tulang, and they also wiped their heads and ran for their lives.

Duan Gui laughed loudly, threw the big gun in his hand into the air, and shouted: "Come on!"

Five thousand soldiers and horses, with the cavalry in front and the infantry behind, rushed towards the thousand volunteers like mountains and seas.

When these rebels saw the general running back, they didn't dare to fight. Some threw away their knives and guns, and ran into the city as fast as they could.

Soon Xue's father and son led the remnants of the defeated generals and fled into the city in embarrassment. Duan Gui's cavalry rushed across the moat to hide and kill them. The cavalry arrived, and the rebels were so panicked that they ignored the city gate and scattered for their lives.

Duan Gui commanded the soldiers to pursue him closely. When he was about to enter the city, one of his generals suggested: "My lord, the Xue family and his son are brave and resourceful. Is this their plan? Don't fall into an ambush."

Duan Gui said disapprovingly, "You're being too careful! Why are you so brave and scheming? The Taoist said that it's just a fake, it's unreasonable! Even if they have an ambush, what can such a mob do against me? Five thousand iron armor in this county Soldiers and horses, trample them down as soon as they pass by. Charge in, take down Jincheng, capture the Xue family father and son and Yang Yong, and there will be a lot of rewards!"

Duan Gui gave an order, these cavalry rode their horses to kill, followed by infantry, five thousand soldiers and horses could pour into the city.

When most of the troops entered the city, Duan Gui rushed in with a few generals.

After the thousands of soldiers and horses entered the city, the Xue family father and son and the thousand soldiers disappeared, and the streets were empty and quiet.

Duan Gui's generals were taken aback for a moment, and even Duan Gui felt an ominous omen.Really fooled?As soon as he thought of these words, with the sound of clappers, ambushes were everywhere, on the top of the city, behind the houses and buildings were all archers, condescendingly shooting bows and arrows at these Sui soldiers and Sui generals.

In an instant, the arrows were like locusts, countless Sui soldiers and Sui generals were hit by the arrows, and they all fell off their horses screaming, and some of them were shot into hedgehogs with their horses.This time, Duan Gui's troops became a little chaotic.

Some soldiers waved their weapons and dialed Diao Ling, protecting Duan Gui to a safe place.Seeing so many casualties, Duan Gui was still a little unwilling, his eyes were red, and he shouted at his subordinates: "Come on!"

Until now, he still dreams that his soldiers will be able to rush through the rain of arrows, kill the rebels, occupy this small town, capture Yang Yong and Xue's father and son, and be rewarded in front of the governor.

But as soon as he blurted out the word "chong", he heard "dong, dong, babble, babble—" several gunshots, earth-shattering.Then Yang Yong, Gong Yechang, Du Yi, and Xue's father and son rushed out like an overwhelming crowd, and four to five thousand people rushed towards Duan Gui's team from four directions.

Yang Yong, Gong Yechang, and Du Yi took the lead in rushing into the enemy group like tigers down the mountain. The Xue family father and son also returned to their usual bravery and invincibility. There was nowhere to escape, heads were rolling, limbs were flying, blood was raining everywhere, and corpses were everywhere.

Now the Sui soldiers and Sui generals are in complete chaos, "Come on!"..."Withdraw!" Duan Gui also failed to command, and was guarded by several generals, trying to get out of the city, but at this time the city gate was closed long ago. .

"Mrs. Duan Yu, leave your name and go!" Just as they were crying, the Xue family father and son shouted and killed them.

"Master Protector retreat! Let's break the queen!" The generals Ding Tulang and Yuan Gonglu thought they could win the fight against Xue's father and son.

"Do you think you can really win? The young master will give you something to try!" Xue Renguo and Xue Renyue cursed, each stopped one, and within five rounds, both Ding Tulang and Yuan Gonglu were decapitated by the single-edged halberd.

Xue Ju and his son led troops to continue chasing and killing Duan Gui. Seeing that Xue's father and son were really powerful, Duan Gui wiped his head and ran away, but there were fewer and fewer soldiers around him. Now he regretted it and was running to meet him On Yang Yong's general.

As soon as Duan Gui gritted his teeth, he could only fight desperately with Yang Yong. As soon as he joined, Yang Yong picked him off the horse.

As soon as Duan Gui died, Yang Yong and Xue Ju hurriedly issued an order: "Hand in your guns and don't kill! Those who surrender will not die!"

These Sui soldiers and Sui generals saw that the general situation was over, and if they didn't surrender, they would all be executed, so they threw down their knives and guns, knelt down and begged for surrender.

Yang Yong and Xue Ju commanded their men to clean up the battlefield. After checking, only a few hundred soldiers were lost in this battle, but more than [-] soldiers were captured.

Yang Yong ordered to follow the previous practice, bury the corpses, bury his brothers generously, and give generous compensation to the dead and wounded, and then take more than 1000 captives into hiding, of which more than [-] soldiers will become his own combat power.

After this battle, Yang Yong's troops were close to [-], and he discussed with Xue Ju that Xue Ju and his two sons would lead [-] elite soldiers, including Duan Gui's surrendered generals, to replace them with Sui soldiers and Sui generals. Clothes, non-stop to Dingshui fraud city.

It happened to be night near Dingshui, and that was the time they were rushing to. Xue Ju led a large group of troops to ambush outside the city, and the two sons and the generals went to the city to deceive, falsely claiming that Lord Duan was blocked by the front enemy and ordered We called for rescuers overnight.

There were still [-] soldiers guarding the city in Dingshui City. The garrison general Jin Xiang saw that these soldiers were his own, and he had no doubts at all. Kaicheng let these soldiers in.

As soon as he entered the city, these generals attacked. Before Jin Xiang could figure out what was going on, Xue Renguo chopped off his head with a halberd.Now the Sui soldiers and Sui generals were in chaos, Xue Renguo, Xue Renyue and others quickly occupied the city gate, Xue Ju led the army in, and easily took down Dingshui County.

Xue Ju ordered his troops to clean up the battlefield, take in the prisoners, and send someone to report victory to Yang Yong.When the people in the city woke up, they found that Dingshui had changed the world, and the flag of the rebel army was flying above the city, and they rushed to tell each other.

At this time, the news of the battle came, Niushan Inspector personally unified Wantong Prefecture soldiers and came to Jincheng, and soldiers from Yongdu, Baiyin, and Sifang also came.

Xue Ju turned his eyes and thought about it, and immediately wrote a letter to Yang Yong, and ordered someone to ride a fast horse to report to Yang Yong. Yang Yong was overjoyed when he received the letter, and approved Xue Ju's strategy request on the spot. Three plans for Tongzhou!
