After Yang Xuangan's troops went west, they met Wei Xuan's troops who had crossed the Han River, and they immediately fought.
At this time, Wei Xuan made a plan. Yang Xuan felt that he was powerful and unmatched, so he could lure the rebels to his predetermined ambush position. Therefore, during the battle, Wei Xuan's troops fought and retreated, while Yang Xuangan's troops pursued them all the way to the west.
At this time, Li Mi realized that something was wrong, so he advised Yang Xuangan: "Chu Gong clearly knows that the old thief Wei Xuan has tens of thousands of troops and is coming fiercely. However, he does not fight me in a decisive battle. Instead, he retreats with one blow. I am afraid that the old thief Wei Xuan is A strategy to lure the enemy deeper."
Yang Xuangan laughed when he heard this and said, "I feel the same way about the Dharma Master's words."
Li Mi then said: "Since Chu Gong also had this intention, why did he continue to pursue the old thief Wei Xuan's troops? To the west of Luoyang, Weihan Zhigu is a dangerous place. Once our army is ambushed, it will be too late to regret."
Yang Xuangan said: "How can I not know the words of the Dharma Master? However, the old thief Wei Xuan has tens of thousands of troops, but I must defeat him. Otherwise, if he keeps attacking behind our army, our army will be disrupted and defeated by him." .¡±
It¡¯s not that Yang Xuangan doesn¡¯t know Wei Xuan¡¯s idea, but this battle must be fought and won. The initiative was not in his hands at this time, so he had to chase after Wei Xuan to see what tricks the other party would play.
Wei Xuan retreated all the way to the northwest, retreating to Longtan Canyon in Xin'an County, where he had already made preparations, waiting for Yang Xuangan to take the bait.
Longtan Canyon is more than a hundred miles west of Luoyang. Within the valley, the canyons face each other, with pools and waterfalls connected to each other, thousands of walls standing tall, and beautiful gorges and secluded valleys. Wei Xuan retreated into the canyon, and Yang Xuangan also followed.
As soon as he saw Longtan Canyon, Li Mi felt something was wrong. The terrain here is complex, with high mountains and dense forests, and rugged roads, making it a good place for an ambush. Li Mi quickly advised Yang Xuangan not to continue the pursuit and to be careful of ambushes.
But Yang Xuangan remained unmoved and led his army into the canyon.
Seeing that Yang Xuangan had fallen into the trap, Wei Xuan was overjoyed and ordered his troops to ambush and prepare to surround and annihilate Yang Xuangan.
Yang Xuangan led more than 10,000 people into the canyon, and there were steep and precipitous mountains along the way. In the empty valley, it was unusually quiet, but it seemed peaceful.
"Young son Yang Xuangan, why don't you hurry up and capture me."
Yang Xuangan looked at Wei Xuan on the high ground opposite and was filled with jealousy. He clenched the long spear in his hand, wishing to poke holes in the opponent.
"Wei Xuan, the dog thief, please leave!"
Yang Xuangan ordered General Wang Bozhong to take command from behind. As soon as he raised his long spear, he killed Wei Xuan on the opposite side. Its long branches were waving like the wind, shouting loudly, and everyone was shocked.
Wei Xuan hurriedly ordered his own soldiers to stop him, but they were all killed by Yang Xuangan.
Yang Xuangan was brave and powerful. Every time he fought, he personally wielded his spear and took the lead. People at the time compared him to Xiang Yu.
Although Yang Xuangan was brave, his troops were trapped in the valley and could not advance or retreat. They could not escape by relying on their own strength. Therefore, it gradually fell into a disadvantage.
At this time, Wei Xuan ordered the entire army to attack and must keep Yang Xuangan in the valley.
Seeing that the situation was becoming more and more critical and the Sui troops were increasing in number, Yang Xuangan was already covered in blood, but he smiled.
Li Mi admired Yang Xuan for being able to laugh at this moment, but Yang Xuan was lighthearted and unintelligent and did not accept good advice. The situation is unfavorable. If this battle is lost, the situation will be over.
"Dharma Master, let me beat the drum!"
Yang Xuangan was riding on a horse, holding a long spear in his hand and looking murderous.
"What does Mr. Chu mean?"
Yang Xuangan laughed "haha" and said, "Let all the men follow me to kill the enemy!"
The rebel war drums "rumbled" and reverberated throughout the valley.
"kill!"
Suddenly, behind the Sui army, there was an earth-shattering cry of killing, which shook the entire valley.
Wei Xuan was shocked, why were there troops behind him?
At this time, Pang Yu, his general, rushed forward to report: "Shang Shu, there are rebels coming out from behind our army. I don't know how many there are!"
Wei Xuan was shocked and quickly ordered his younger brother Wei Wentong to lead his army to stop him.
At this time, Yang Xuangan in the valley was overjoyed when he heard the cry of killing. His second brother lived up to his expectations. This time, the old thief Wei Xuan was unable to fly.
"Weixuan dog thief, you have a mantis stalking the cicada, and I have an oriole behind you. I have seen through your little scheme a long time ago, but you didn't know it. It's really ridiculous. I will behead you today!"
It turns out that when Yang Xuangan saw Wei Xuan fighting and leaving, he knew that the other party was trying to seduce him, so he sent part of his army to Wei Xuan.His younger brother Yang Xuanting ordered him to lead a light chariot and a few followers and rush to Wei Xuan's troops. After Wei Xuan led his troops into Longtan Canyon, Yang Xuanting detoured to the back of the canyon to ambush. Hearing the sound of drums, he rushed out from behind and caught Wei Xuan by surprise.
"ah!"
At this time, Wei Xuan saw that he failed to hunt and became the prey instead. Wei Xuan, who was already over 60 years old, had a mouthful of old blood, spurted out, and fell off his horse.
The surrounding soldiers rushed forward to rescue him, only to see Wei Xuan's eyes closed tightly and he had already passed out.
At this time, Wei Xuan was in a coma and without a leader, and the Sui army immediately fell into chaos.
Yang Xuangan commanded the army to encircle the enemy in front and back, and immediately beat the opponent back again and again.
Yang Xuangan then ordered people behind the formation to shout: "Our army has captured Wei Xuan!" None of Wei Xuan's troops knew the situation. They saw Wei Xuan's flag moving back. They were all surprised and even more confused.
Yang Xuangan waved his long spear and kept moving forward to kill the Sui army. Anyone who dared to stop him was swept off his horse. Therefore, in the narrow canyon, Yang Xuangan was like a millstone, crushing everything he passed. The corpses of the Sui army in the valley were scattered everywhere.
At this time, Wei Xuan was in a coma, the morale of the army was in chaos, and there was no one to lead the troops.
Wei Wentong, who was originally in front of the army, had to return to the central army and take command in his brother's place.
Wei Wentong was a fierce general who also participated in the Northern Expedition and experienced many battles. At this time, the rebels were seen attacking from all sides. Their troops were trapped in the canyon and could not escape. Wei Wentong ordered the entire army to break out into the canyon.
"General, the canyon is narrow. You can get in, but you can't get out! If our army enters it, the rebels can seal the mouth of the valley with only a small number of troops, preventing our army from getting out."
"Come out, save yourself first, and then talk about it."
In Wei Wentong's view, the canyon is long and narrow and difficult to navigate, and it cannot allow large groups of people to pass through at the same time. Although the Sui army was trapped and died in it, they were able to rely on the steepness of the canyon to block the rebels.
Wei Wentong was very ruthless and did not stop. He had no choice but to urge the troops to withdraw deeper into the valley. As for the outer troops, Yang Xuangan had to be left to delay their pace.
Although Wei Wentong's move was cruel, it helped them successfully retreat into the valley.
The entire canyon is very deep, and both sides are extremely steep and difficult to pass. Wei Wentong ordered people to build fortifications and dig trenches in the canyon to stop the enemy.
Yang Xuangan's unexpected attack this time defeated the Sui army and annihilated more than 20,000 people under Wei Xuan's command, but it did not completely eliminate the opponent's combat effectiveness. The Sui army withdrew into the canyon to deal with the rebels, but Yang Xuangan repeatedly attacked, but the enemy always avoided fighting. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
