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

Chapter 308 Battle of Dingjun Mountain ([-])
Although Li Dingguo tried his best to attack with his army, Li Xiaogong had already set up strong defense lines on various mountain peaks.

Under the attack of the Tang army's intensive bow and crossbow, Li Dingguo's troops suffered heavy losses.

But there is no tendency to attack the mountain.

For a while, the situation took a turn for the worse, which became unfavorable to his army!

Immediately, Li Dingguo did not dare to neglect, and quickly reported the battle report here.

Then he ordered a personal guard to rush to Zhang Xianzhong in Sichuan to ask for reinforcements.

After all, the situation is urgent now, and if you delay for a second, you may lose Hanchuan.

…………

Just to say, not only the battle of Hanchuan is going on like a raging fire, but also the battle of Jiangzhou in Badong is also unfolding rapidly.

At this time, under Gao Qi's personal command, the Qi army attacked Jiangzhou City wave after wave like a tide.

Rao's main general, Sun Kewang, should not be underestimated in his use of troops, and he has also fallen into bitter battles one after another.

If it weren't for the reinforcements sent by Zhang Xianzhong and Sun at critical moments, Jiangzhou might have fallen by now.

Jiangzhou's offensive and defensive battle was like a humanoid meat grinder, and the battle was extremely tragic!
Many soldiers of the Qi army fell on the siege one after another, but they were still attacking fiercely.

But the surface is also gratifying, because Qi soldiers almost climbed the city wall several times.

If Sun Kewang hadn't led the army to arrive in time to put it out, Huang Zhong, a veteran of the Qi army, would have taken the lead and killed him on the tower.

…………

Shu County, Chengdu
It is only said that Li Dingguo's envoy, who is urgently asking for help, has met Zhang Xianzhong and explained the reason.

However, Zhang Xianzhong was in a panic at this time, and he didn't know where to help.

Because Zhang Xianzhong's troops were defeated by the Tang army and fled to Hanchuan in a hurry, their strength was greatly damaged.

Immediately afterwards, taking advantage of this golden opportunity, Zhang Xianzhong seized Shu, the unclaimed land, and made it a separate land.

However, due to the short time for the capture, the strength has not yet begun to recover, so the Qi army marched westward.

It is only said that the Qi army's fierce attack under the city of Jiangzhou has already caused Zhang Xianzhong to send reinforcements to help several times.

Nowadays, in fact, there are very few troops left by Zhang Xianzhong in the Chengdu garrison.

Zhang Xianzhong originally pinned on Li Dingguo's ability to reach and live in the attack of the Tang army in Hanchuan.

But Li Dingguo was still in a passive situation, but where did Zhang Xianzhong get soldiers to support him?

For a while, Zhang Xianzhong could only sigh, and said bitterly: "Could it be that the heavens have killed me, Zhang Xianzhong?"

"In this way, let a certain perish?"

In the end, in desperation, one of his staff members suddenly suggested: "My lord, I have a plan, maybe I can make a rescue."

Hearing this, Zhang Xianzhong seemed to see a glimmer of light from the despair, and immediately forced himself to say, "What is the plan?"

Immediately, the staff cheered up and said, "My lord, there are now a group of forces with strong armed forces in Hanyang and Dangchang counties in the north of Sichuan."

"The leader's name is Dong Zhuo, and he is from the Qiang tribe. Because of his outstanding martial prowess and boldness."

"Therefore, the Qiang tribes in Hanyang and Dangchang all obeyed Dong Zhuo."

"Because he dominates the two counties, Dong Zhuo's ambitions have rapidly expanded, and he has long wanted to intervene in Shu."

"Therefore, the minister's opinion is that I hope that the lord can send an envoy to meet Dong Zhuo and ask him to send troops to Hanchuan."

"Promise that as long as the Tang army can be expelled, Hanchuan will be divided equally."

After some analysis by the staff, although Zhang Xianzhong was very disgusted with the equal division of Hanchuan.

But now, Zhang Xianzhong's troops are in jeopardy under the joint attack of the Tang and Qi armies!

In the end, Zhang Xianzhong had no choice but to send an envoy to Hanyang to ask Dong Zhuo for help according to the strategy of his staff.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Xianzhong also ordered his adopted son Liu Wenxiu to lead an army to Hanchuan to support Li Dingguo in order to change his unfavorable situation.

Afterwards, Zhang Xianzhong made his adopted son Ainengqi stick to Chengdu, while Zhang Xianzhong personally moved eastward and stationed in Berkshire.

As Sun Kewang's back-up in Jiangzhou City, he can provide assistance at any time.

…………

Among the main peaks of Dingjun Mountain, Li Dingguo was still fighting fiercely with Li Xiaogong's troops.

However, Li Xiaogong had already built a strong line of defense, and Dingjun Mountain was steep.

Although Li Dingguo commanded the soldiers to attack bravely and fearlessly, he didn't do anything at all.

Moreover, because Li Xiaogong occupies Dingjun Mountain, he is condescending.

Therefore, even if Li Dingguo tried his best to protect the grain road, Li Xiaogong could still find its flaws and destroy it.

Therefore, for several consecutive days, Li Dingguo's army has been in a situation of food shortage.

Simply, Liu Wenxiu led his army to gallop forward, and finally arrived at the foot of Dingjun Mountain.

Afterwards, Li Dingguo and Liu Wenxiu guarded the two sides and guarded the grain road respectively.

For a while, the arrogance of Tang Jun Li Xiaogong's troops was suppressed, so that they dared not cut off the food easily.

…………

Dingjun Mountain, Tianzhu Peak

Li Xiaogong was staring at the map solemnly, and said slowly: "This battle has been protracted, and it cannot be delayed any longer."

Immediately, after pondering for a while, Li Xiaogong said eloquently: "I have recently conducted a survey of the terrain of Didingjun Mountain."

"Ben finally discovered that the terrain is low-lying and wide, which is very good at hiding soldiers."

"Therefore, the general planned to let the enemy army attack up the mountain tomorrow, and then ambush them in and out to catch them all!"

In the end, after some analysis by Li Xiaogong, the generals almost agreed.

…………

In the early morning of the next day, Liu Wenxiu and Li Dingguo joined forces.

Then, with Li Dingguo as the main general, under his command, he launched an attack on the mountain again.

This time, after paying a huge sacrifice, Li Dingguo's troops finally went up the mountain.

Immediately afterwards, after a short rest, Li Dingguo commanded the soldiers to attack again, trying to recapture Dingjun Mountain in one go.

For a time, the morale of Li Dingguo's troops was extremely strong, as if the momentum was broken.

Due to the loss of the geographical advantage, the Tang army was also under the onslaught and began to gradually weaken.

Since they have already attacked the mountain this time, coupled with the fact that their own army is invincible, and they are not familiar with the terrain of Dingjun Mountain.

Therefore, as the main general, Li Dingguo did not realize that his army was gradually attacking the gate of hell.

…………

Time flies by!
Soon, Li Dingguo's troops were killed in the low-lying valley.

"kill!"

Suddenly, in the valley, above the main peak, countless Tang troops appeared quickly.

For a while, Tang soldiers from all directions came to Li Dingguo's troops one after another.

Immediately, a scuffle broke out between the two armies.

However, due to the sudden ambushes of Li Dingguo's sergeants from all sides, the morale of the army was unstable.

In addition, the elite level of the soldiers of the Tang army is far higher than that of Li Dingguo's soldiers.

Therefore, the longer the battle lasted, the weaker the resistance of Li Dingguo's troops became.

For a while, Li Xiaogong, the chief general of the Tang army, began to command his soldiers to divide and encircle, in an attempt to annihilate his armed forces in one fell swoop.

…………

At this time, Li Dingguo and Liu Wenxiu immediately called the soldiers under their command to evacuate.

And Li Dingguo and Liu Wenxiu also played the role of fierce generals by virtue of their own bravery.

The two generals, one in front and one behind, took the lead and led the sergeant to evacuate.

Let me just say, what is the fate of the soldiers under Li Dingguo's troops?
