The Summoning of the Troubled Times at the End of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 266 Fang La retreats, Wagang attacks

Under the city of Xiapi, a fierce battle broke out again.

However, this battle, like the previous ones, ended in failure.

…………

Sui army barracks, in the military tent
One general was standing on the general platform, pacing back and forth, with an anxious expression on his face.

This will be Pei Renji, the general of the Sui army guarding the Central Plains.

Due to the Fangla rebellion, Pei Renji raised a large army to attack Fangla's army.

However, although the field strength of Fang La's army is slightly inferior to that of the Sui army.

But Fang La shrunk his line of defense and stuck to the front line of Xiapi, Sizhou.

The city wall of Xiapi is high and thick. For several days, although the Sui army has been attacking fiercely every day.

But apart from the loss of soldiers and generals, and the loss of halberds outside the city, there has not been much progress!
…………

Just when the generals in the tent were at a loss, the guards outside the tent couldn't help walking in quickly, and clasped their hands and said: "General Pei, general Hussars outside the camp, please see me!"

"General Hussars?"

"Which hussar general?"

Hearing this, Pei Renji murmured suspiciously before he could react for a while.

Immediately, the guards below continued to report: "General, you are the hussar general Gao Qi who shocked the northern border and wiped out hundreds of thousands of rebels in World War I."

"hiss!"

In an instant, all the generals in the tent were in an uproar, but they didn't react for a long time.

After a long time, the general in the tent asked doubtfully: "Shouldn't Gao Qi be in the south of the Yangtze River? Why did he arrive here?"

For a moment, this general could be said to have asked everyone's thoughts, and the rest of the generals showed confusion.

Even though he guessed like this, he knew that it would not be good to leave the guests outside the camp for a long time.

After sorting things out, Pei Renji led himself and his generals to greet him outside the camp.

Seeing Gao Qi and his party from a distance, Pei Renji immediately stepped forward and said enthusiastically, "I haven't seen you for a few years, but I didn't expect Brother Gao to have achieved great feats in battle, and he is so powerful."

"Using soldiers is even more invincible, defeating all kinds of anti-kings one after another, there is no shame in it!"

After finishing speaking, Pei Renji couldn't help putting down his old face, as if he was shameless.

After all, when Pei Renji joined the army and made great military exploits, Gao Qi was probably just born when he became the Nine Elders of the founding of the Sui Dynasty.

But now, Gao Qi has not only won the battle against the Hu people in northern Xinjiang time and time again!
In the end, when the rebellions in various places were quelled, they were quelled with lightning speed.

On the other hand, Fang La's rebellion has not been overcome for a long time!
Pei Renji compared himself with Gao Qi involuntarily.

In an instant, the gap between the two was unreservedly revealed!

Afterwards, Pei Renji welcomed Gao Qi into the tent, and first said: "I think a few years ago, brother Gao brought the head of the traitor Yang Xuangan to the emperor."

"When you use this as a qualification for promotion, you are still just a teenager."

"But Brother Gao's achievements have already made this old man deeply ashamed!"

Hearing this, Gao Qi hurriedly became humble, shook his hand and said, "Where, where!"

"The veteran general has spent half his life in the army and has experienced many battles. The boy Gao Qi should ask him for advice!"

After the courtesies were over, Pei Renji also asked the real question.

"Brother Gao, isn't His Majesty the title of Marquis of Jiangling? Why did you come to Sizhou if you don't sit in Jiangling?"

Following Pei Renji's questioning, Gao Qi also explained.

I saw Gao Qi talking slowly: "When Qi was in Jiangling, he received a tip to rebel against the Yuhua culture and commit chaos."

"At the time of His Majesty's southern tour, control the Jiangdu Palace, and control His Majesty in the south."

"That's why the soldiers sent troops to Jiangdu to come to rescue him, but he was too late, and His Majesty still died at the hands of the traitor Yu Wenhuaji!"

Immediately, Gao Qi finished his purpose of arriving here in a few words.

Even the complete annihilation of the tens of thousands of troops under Fang Jie in Pengcheng was also reported.

However, Gao Qi concealed the fact that he was looking for the beloved woman's eldest grandson Wugou.

After all, people have their own desire for privacy, and it is impossible to tell the truth to everyone!
However, all the generals in the tent were shocked by the annihilation of Fang Jie's tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and all praised Gao Qi's words of using soldiers like a god.

Afterwards, Gao Qi also discussed with Pei Renji and other generals the plan to capture Xiapi.

…………

Inside Xiapi City
Fang La, who was rectifying official documents, could not help but receive a battle report.

It happened to record the passage of Hussar General Gao Qi going north, taking the opportunity to attack Xiao County in Pengcheng, and wiped out Fang Jie's entire army.

For a moment, Fang La couldn't help panicking, and instantly collapsed to the ground.

After all, that was my own brother and [-] soldiers and horses, but the whole army was wiped out just like that!

How could Fang La not regret and feel sad?

Immediately, Fang La responded in an instant, and immediately ordered his personal guards to block the news so that it could not spread throughout the army, so as not to cause cholera in the army.

However, the ideal is always beautiful, but the reality is always cruel!
Because, although the internal information is strictly prevented from leaking, the defense is almost impeccable!
It's a pity, how could Gao Qi, who joined forces with Pei Renji's troops, let Fang La's wishful thinking succeed?

…………

The next day, thousands of bows and arrows were shot into the city.

Moreover, I saw envelopes tied to the arrow handles one after another.

For a moment, the soldiers above the city couldn't help being surprised when they saw that the arrows had no lethality!
The sharp-eyed soldier found the letter paper tied to the arrow handle, and couldn't help being curious, and opened it to look at it.

The content is actually very simple: that is, Fang Jie's army in Pengcheng has been wiped out!
For a while, as the news spread in the city, Fang Jun's soldiers couldn't help feeling terrified, and the future was not good!
Afterwards, there was almost one pass in the city, and ten to one hundred.

After a long time, almost the whole city knew the fact that Fang Jiejun had been wiped out.

Fang La, who heard the news, couldn't help being furious, and immediately organized a picket team to conduct inspections.

Once it is discovered that someone dares to mention this matter, they will be killed without mercy!

In response to this, Fang La also called on the entire army to gather, affirming that this was a trick and blindfold of the Sui army.

The purpose is to make our own army chaos without fighting, so that we can take the opportunity to seize the city!

…………

Then, on the one hand, Fang La personally came forward to stabilize the morale of the army.

On the other hand, Fang Wei, the general of the relatives, organized a picket team to behead those who spread rumors and show them to the public!

Relying on this method of combining grace and power, the discussions in the city were stopped for a while.

A few days later, the Sui army launched another attack, and this attack was more violent than the previous ones.

Due to the rumor incident a few days ago, the morale of Fang La's army was already affected.

Coupled with the overwhelming onslaught of Sui soldiers at this time.

For a while, Xiapi City was on the verge of collapse and was in danger of breaking the city at any time.

But at this time, Gao Qi suddenly led the cavalry of his headquarters to march eastward, aiming at the center of gravity of Fang La's army - Donghai County.

…………

Fang La, who got the information, secretly said 'not good', and now Fang La leads the main force of the headquarters to confront Pei Renji in Xiapi.

The hinterland of the East China Sea was basically empty. At this time, Gao Qi personally led the cavalry to rush and make a surprise attack.

That's no accident, the fall of Donghai County is just a certainty.

Now that Xiapi is being attacked by Pei Renji's troops, once Donghai falls, Fang Lake will really become a bereaved dog!

…………

Therefore, for a while, Fang La weighed the pros and cons, tried his best to abandon Xiapi City, and took advantage of the night to retreat to the East China Sea.

Immediately, Fang La led the army to the East China Sea first, and then organized a defense line to resist Gao Qi's surprise attack.

But at this time Gao Qi did not lead the cavalry to attack, and Fang La realized that he had been calculated and lost Xiapi County, which he relied on most.

…………

For a while, under the plan of Gao Qi, the Sui army who had been attacking for several months captured Xiapi almost without bloodshed.

Completely drove the power of the Fangla Group to the east of Sizhou.

…………

Just when the Sui army was delighted, an urgent battle report was sent first!

That is Wagangzhai once again sent troops to attack!
