But Yang Xuangan still didn¡¯t know that the Sui army was close at hand. These days, Yang Xuangan was dragged tightly under Luoyang City by Fan Zigai, unable to advance or retreat, and was completely at a disadvantage.
At that time, it was decided to divide the troops and defend, so Li Mi persuaded Yang Xuangan to take the initiative to go north for a decisive battle when Qu Tutong was not yet stable, so as to catch the opponent by surprise, occupy Heyang City, and open up the road to Hedong.
"It is a pity that although the idea is good and even very likely to be realized, Yang Xuangan does not have enough troops at this time, so he always disagrees with this matter.
After more than half a month of continuous fierce fighting, Yang Xuangan's troops suffered heavy casualties and there were not many available troops. And Yang Xuangan's meager force had to defend Qu Tutong, Wei Xuan, Luoyang City, Jin Yong City and other places at the same time. The force was really stretched.
Seeing that the delay under Luoyang City was getting longer and longer, Yang Xuangan himself became more and more impatient. He attacked Luoyang City desperately, like a gambler who was desperate to lose, fighting for his life with the Sui army. However, Yang Xuangan's strength was really limited, and despite the bloody battles, he still failed to break the city.
They fought like this for several more days, but Yang Xuangan gained nothing. Li Mi really couldn't sit still. He met with Yang Xuangan and once again requested to take the initiative to attack Qu Tutong and open up the road to the north. Going straight from Heyang to Hedong, the roads along the way are much more convenient than those in the Weihan area, and crossing the river from Puban instead of going through Tongguan has a greater chance of success.
In the past two days, Yang Xuangan was helplessly beaten by Fan Zigai. He had long since lost his original energy and looked haggard. Moreover, Yang Xuangan had heard a lot of bad news in the past two days. News came from Hejian County that his fifth brother Yang Wanxiang, the most proficient in fighting, was exposed in Gaoyang County (today¡¯s west of Gaoyang County, Hebei Province) and was killed by the county magistrate Xu Hua; His sixth brother Yang Xuanjiao, who was the governor of Yiyang County, was killed by his county magistrate Zhou Xuanyu because he responded to him. Since the incident, Yang Xuangan had lost three younger brothers in a row, and his heart was as sharp as a knife. He wished he could lead an army to avenge his younger brothers, but now he was in a dilemma in this corner of Luoyang, and he was only sad at this time.
Yang Xuangan finally looked at Li Mi's proposal again. He knew the situation he was facing. Although the success rate of Li Mi's suggestion was not high, for the current plan, he had to gamble this time.
Yang Xuangan had no choice but to order his younger brother Yang Minxing to make a grand display at Poling Ferry to attract Qu Tutong's attention. He also ordered Li Zixiong to lead 10,000 old and weak people to continue the siege of Luoyang, while he led the remaining 30,000 main force to wait for an opportunity to cross the Yellow River north, take Heyang directly, and escape from the Sui army's encirclement.
But it was not easy for Yang Xuangan to leave Luoyang City.
Fan Zigai knew very well that reinforcements were coming, and he would not let Yang Xuangan leave. Therefore, as soon as Yang Xuangan's troops moved, he would immediately attack and harass them, preventing Yang Xuangan's troops from advancing even an inch.
On this day, the spies hiding in Yang Xuangan's army came to report. Yang Xuangan only used the old, weak, sick and disabled to attract the attention of the Sui army in the city, while the main force had already gone north to Mengjin, preparing to take the opportunity to sneak across the river. The rebels outside the city are just a group of abandoned pawns.
Fan Zigai was shocked and realized that Yang Xuangan was about to escape. He immediately decided to lead his main force out of the city to pursue him.
The generals all disagreed. They were guarding Luoyang City and could still deal with each other. If they left the city, who knew what the consequences would be.
Faced with everyone¡¯s advice, Fan Zigai refused to listen. He said: "Today Yang Xuangan fled north, the emperor's reinforcements must have arrived. Yang's rebellion has a great influence on our court. Unless he is killed at the entrance of Luoyang Street, it is not enough to set the record straight and frighten the enemy. Yang's influence It's so great that once he gets out of trouble and rebels, he will definitely wreak havoc on one side, and it will be difficult to capture him by then."
Fan Zigai had made up his mind, so he ordered the 30,000 men in the city to prepare for the attack.
After being besieged for more than a month, the Shangchun Gate of Luoyang City suddenly opened. Tens of thousands of Sui troops suddenly rushed out of the city and headed straight for the rebels outside the city. After more than a month of fighting, these tens of thousands of Sui troops have seen blood to some extent, and are no longer the weak and weak soldiers they were before.
Fan Zigai took Liu Changgong as the vanguard and went straight to the rebel camp outside the city.
The best of this group of rebels had been taken away by Yang Xuangan a long time ago. They were just the same guy. They just suffered a sudden attack and couldn't escape, let alone accept the challenge.
Liu Changgong continued to cover up and kill behind him, just like driving away pigs and dogs, effortlessly.
There was a one-sided war outside Luoyang City, full of killing and fear. Liu Changgong's troops were extremely fast and soon broke into the rebel camp.
At this time, Li Zixiong saw the Sui army charging in and did not resist, so he fled north with more than a thousand veterans in the army, leaving the entire rebel camp to the Sui army.
This battle made the Sui army extremely happy. They thought they would be involved in a hard battle, but who would have thought that they would just chase the rebels.
Pioneer general Liu Changgong also couldn¡¯t help but feel happy.He came to Fan Zigai and asked to pursue Li Zixiong's troops. Fan Zigai was very sober and was not complacent about this small victory. He knew very well that these were all burdens that Yang Xuangan had thrown on him. They were simply a group of old and weak men with no fighting ability. Victory was just inevitable. This battle did not change the situation. He still wanted to stop Yang Xuangan south of the Yellow River as soon as possible and not allow him to cross north.
Fan Zigai decided to continue the pursuit.
At this time, Zhang Fangyi persuaded Fan Zigai: "Yang Xuangan is at the end of his road. He will attack with all his strength before his death. Our army must not pursue it too hastily. How about we first relieve the siege of Jin Yong City, then join forces together, and then head north .¡±
Fan Zigai said displeasedly: "If our army were late in pursuit, Yang Xuangan would have escaped. Qu Tutong only has 20,000 troops and cannot stop Yang Xuangan at all."
However, Zhang Fangyi ignored Zhang Fangyi's advice and ordered him to guard Luoyang City, while he, Liu Changgong and Fan Gui pursued him.
Fan Zigai led 30,000 horses in a meandering advance, and unknowingly entered the Beimang Mountain, not far from the Mengjin Ferry. Everyone chased him all afternoon, and by evening they were exhausted.
Fan Zigai was worried that Yang Xuangan would be taken away, so he ordered the army to speed up the pursuit.
Arriving at a valley, Fan Zigai looked up and saw that two mountains were narrowing each other and there were many trees; it was summer and the branches and leaves were lush. But he felt a little uneasy in his heart, so he reined in his horse and asked, "Where is this place?"
At this time Fan Gui said: "This place is called Luojiagou. It is said that one year, the Han Dynasty Emperor Liu Heng and his mother Bo Ji passed by this place. It rained heavily suddenly, and the hood of Liu Heng and Bo Ji's car was blown by the strong wind. After taking off their clothes, their clothes were soaked by the heavy rain. The accompanying flag bearers hurriedly covered Liu Heng and Bo Ji with the flags, but they still could not protect them from the wind and rain, so they had to take shelter in a small mountain village. Later, people said that the two people's death was This small mountain village that takes shelter from the rain is called 'Luojiagou'."
Fan Zigai was even more shocked, but he said: "Even Emperor Zhenlong suffered wind and rain when he came here, so what about us. I'm afraid this place is not good for us."
Fan Zigai hurriedly ordered the rear army to retreat. He only heard the sound of a clapper in front of the hillside, but the arrows were like locusts. He only expected the Sui army to shoot at them. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
